Chapter 20 "Magnet"
The Korean Olympic team's pressing attack on Zhou Yi was originally intended to contain Zhou Yi, but this objectively caused Zhou Yi to gather too many Korean players around him, resulting in insufficient control of other Korean teams.
As long as Zhouyi can protect the football in this situation, he can attract a large number of Korean players and allow his teammates to get more open spaces and opportunities.
It sounds simple, but in fact it is difficult to do. Because when a person is trapped in a tight siege, it is already very difficult to protect the football, let alone send the football to where it should go.
At this time, Zhou Yi's extraordinary skills that he had practiced hard for a season showed their effect. Although he does not need to pass people in this situation, he must practice passing people and also practice ball control. To put it bluntly, all technical movements are essentially control of football.
Protecting the ball can also be considered a type of ball control.
Through the training of extraordinary players, Zhou Yi's ball sense has been further improved, and he can control the football more easily while moving around.
Even if one or two people are pressing him closely, he is still confident to protect the football. As for passing the ball after protecting the ball, it is the easiest thing for Zhou Yi, who has the talent of "Eagle Eye".
In the 66th minute, after Zhou Yi received the ball in the midfield, he did not pass the football immediately. Instead, he made a fake move to pass the ball to the right. Ji Chengyong, who was guarding him, did not dare not guard him, but Zhou Yi just After a false shot, he moved the football to the left again, and then took the ball out again, breaking through!
Zhou Yi's dribbling breakthrough immediately made him a big "magnet", attracting all the Korean team's defensive attention.
At least two defensive players from the Korean team rushed towards him. Normally, he should pass the football out in this situation, but Zhou Yi did not do so. He still dribbled the ball forward, as if he was not afraid of those defensive players. .
At the same time, behind him, Ji Chengyong, who was deceived by him at the beginning, also chased after him, and soon he would be guarded from both sides.
Facing the three Korean players rushing towards him, Zhou Yi slowed down and led to the side, which was an obvious intention to hide. It seemed that his breakthrough with the ball was blocked by the South Korean team.
Next, as long as the Korean team players can force him to the wing, he will have much less room to play, and his threat to the Korean team's goal will naturally be much smaller.
Zhou Yi's deceleration and turn gave Ki Sung-yong and other Korean players the opportunity to surround him. Soon he was under siege.
Now, let alone passing the fatal ball, he is considered very powerful if he can protect the football without being snatched away by the opponent.
He was forced to face the attacking direction on the wing.
No matter how you look at it, this attack has reached its end.
Korean fans both in the stands and in front of the TV cheered.
The Korean commentator was shouting: "The Chinese team's offense is in a quagmire! Zhou Yi should have passed the ball in time, but now he has been surrounded by us! As long as we can intercept his ball, we can take the opportunity to counterattack!"
The Korean players surrounding Zhou Yi on the court thought so too.
South Korean forward Goo Ja-cheol, who was chasing back all the way, reached out to grab the ball at Zhou Yi's feet.
Zhou Yi, who was competing with the Korean players behind him, pulled the football back with his feet. At the same time, the pulled football hit the toe of his supporting foot, causing the football to bounce.
When Zhou Yi was deeply surrounded, Wu Lei ran up to pick him up, but He Ying did not do so. He did the opposite. Not only did he not go to pick up Zhou Yi, but he threw Zhou Yi away and ran forward.
He had seen the gap, which was very big, and he believed the Koreans had seen it too, but they didn't care because they didn't think the gap would pose any threat.
Indeed, think about it, Zhou Yi is surrounded by the opponent on the wing, with his back to the direction of attack. Even if there is space, can he pass the football?
All most people can think of at this time is to run to pick up Zhou Yi, try to get as close to him as possible, and help him pick out the football.
He Ying didn't do this, partly because Wu Lei had already done it, so there was no need for him to join in the fun. On the other hand, it is because he believes in Zhou Yi. Based on his understanding of Zhou Yi, he always believes that Zhou Yi can do things that ordinary people think are impossible.
So he ran over.
When He Ying inserted into the space, Zhou Yi was still "fighting" with the Korean players surrounding him. The football hit the toes of his supporting feet and bounced up. Then Zhou Yi followed up and bumped the football up again.
Football was provoked by Gogo and completely avoided Ju Zizhe. However, this kind of high ball will only make it more difficult for Zhou Yi to control.
So when everyone saw the football flying, they all crowded towards Zhou Yi, intending to fight for the ball.
Faced with this situation, Zhou Yi leaned back and leaned hard on Ji Chengyong. Then he used Ji Chengyong as a wall, leaned against Ji Chengyong boldly, and used the fallen football to cushion it.
The football cushioned slightly and continued to fall. Zhou Yi turned sideways and let the football fall.
Just when the football fell to about knee height, Zhou Yi suddenly kicked the football towards him.
The football that was picked did not fly into the backcourt, nor was it passed to Wu Lei who came up to meet him. Instead, it flew out from the gap in the encirclement and went straight to the huge gap behind the Korean team's defense!
Without looking back at all, he passed the football with his back turned!
At the same time, He Ying also ran towards that place. The cooperation between man and ball was like flowing water, without any pause, and the timing was just right!
"He Ying goes forward! Oh, beautiful! Beautiful pass!" He Ping shouted excitedly in the commentary box.
The Chinese fans in front of the TV also cheered. Almost all of them could foresee what would happen next, and this prospect made them excited.
He Ying rushed towards the football. He didn't even pay attention to the linesman or the referee. As long as he couldn't hear the whistle, he would not stop his actions.
Of course, he really couldn't hear the whistle now, because the stadium was already swept by a huge sound, including cheers from Chinese fans and screams and boos from Korean fans.
Especially the boos. In the second half, the South Korean team played with their own supporters behind their goal. Behind their goal were the stands where Korean fans gathered. These fans were now booing wildly, hoping to disturb He Ying.
But who is He Ying? He is a player who won the Silver Boot in the Spanish Second Division. He is most praised for his calmness and composure. No matter what situation he faces, as a shooter, he is unusually calm.
How could such a little booing affect his mind?
He answered the Korean fans with a solid stop, and then he put the football into the penalty area.
Facing the attacking South Korean goalkeeper Zheng Chenglong, He Ying deceived him with a false shot, and then pushed into the empty goal.
The football rolled into the goal without any suspense!
"The ball has been scored!" He Ping raised his arms and shouted. "The ball is in! The ball is in! The Chinese team has taken the lead again! Beautiful! He Ying!"
This goal actually came without warning. Before Zhou Yi passed the football to He Ying, everyone felt that the Chinese team's offense was over.
Unexpectedly, it turned into a goal in the end. The Chinese fans in front of the TV went from shock to excitement, and there were also many excited comments on the Internet.
After scoring the goal, He Ying didn't seem so excited. Although he had a smile on his face, he was not so excited that his face was distorted. He smiled and turned around and ran towards Zhou Yi, pointing at him and gesturing for him to celebrate the goal.
Before he scored the goal, he believed that Zhou Yi would definitely send the football into the open space. Facts have proved that Zhou Yi did not live up to his trust. This feeling already existed when he participated in the filming of the reality show.
It feels good to have teammates you can trust and fight alongside.
He Ying smiled and greeted Zhou Yi, feeling as if he was running towards an old friend.
The two hugged each other.
"Nice pass!" He Ying said, slapping Zhou Yi on the back.
"Nice penetration!" Zhou Yi replied, patting He Ying's shoulder.
Wu Lei then rushed forward, and he shouted excitedly: "How did you see it done!"
He was asking Zhou Yi. He was the one who came to pick up Zhou Yi just now. His eyes were all on Zhou Yi, so he could see clearly.
Zhou Yi never looked back from beginning to end. In fact, he had no chance to look around. At that time, he was surrounded by Korean players wearing red jerseys. He was almost submerged in the red. Wu Lei could only worry outside, but There was no way to rush in and rescue Zhou Yi.
Without looking back, it was naturally impossible for him to know what was going on behind him, where there was space, and even less likely to know where He Ying would run, but he just passed the football decisively and used In a way that no one expected, the football was passed into the space behind him.
When Zhou Yi passed the ball, Wu Lei was dumbfounded. He thought Zhou Yi had kicked the ball casually, but when his eyes shifted, he realized that He Ying actually appeared at the landing point of the football!
At that time, Wu Lei had countless questions in his mind that merged into one sentence: "Is this okay?!"
Zhou Yi laughed and said: "I knew He Ying would definitely run into that space, so I passed the ball!"
This was said with confidence and full of trust in himself and his teammates.
Other Chinese team players swarmed around them and celebrated wildly in the stands where Korean fans gathered. To be continued. ..
