Chapter 445 Come on, Yang Yang!
late at night.
The final round of the World Cup Group D is in full swing.
Fans all over China are immersed in this fierce game, and they are extremely nervous with the ups and downs of the game.
The Chinese team, which reached the World Cup finals for the second time, encountered Angola, which entered the finals for the first time.
This team was able to lose to Portugal 0-1 in the first two games of the group stage and draw with Mexico 0-0, which shows its strength.
Especially Angola's defensive ability.
The game has gone on for more than 70 minutes in the second half, and the score is still zero to zero.
The Chinese team discharged a technical midfielder and controlled the situation on the field.
The 57 percent possession rate proves that the Chinese team has a certain advantage on the court.
The passing success rate also exceeds 70%, while Angola is only about 65%.
In terms of creating opportunities, the Chinese team also shot more than a dozen times, but the shooting efficiency was not too high, resulting in the team never getting the chance to score.
Yang Yang, who wore the national team captain's armband for the first time, was closely guarded by Angola in this game.
Although he didn't get many chances, he created a lot for the team and sent a lot of wonderful passes to Gao Lin, Chen Tao, Zhou Haibin and Shao Jiayi, but unfortunately, the goal is still so far away. A little bit.
Yang Yang himself had a three-legged shot, both times he kicked from a distance from the goal, and once was saved by the goalkeeper.
Angola is not a belly to be slaughtered by others. Whether it is facing Mexico or Portugal, they have shown a very tenacious fighting spirit and their overall strength is not weak.
And this game against the Chinese team, they played not at all conservative.
Especially in the second half, as the Chinese team's physical strength was exhausted, they fought back frequently.
The number of shots is roughly on par with the Chinese team, but the threat of shots is slightly worse.
However, Angola has done a good job in limiting the defense of Yang Yang, the top star of the Chinese team.
Throughout the game, there were always many Angolan players around Yang Yang.
Facts have also proved that after restricting Yang Yang, the entire scoring efficiency of the Chinese team declined rapidly.
Among them, the most threatening one occurred in the 31st minute of the first half. After Yang Yang threw away the defender, he shot a cold arrow, hit the goal directly, and fired a heavy shot, causing Angola goalkeeper Ricardo to let go. .
But Gao Lin, who followed, faced the empty goal within ten meters, and even missed the ball.
This is absolutely unbelievable for everyone.
Since then, the Chinese team seems to have fallen into a situation of isolation from the goal.
Gao Lin was so remorseful that he wanted to screw his head off during the intermission. That chance was really good.
But as the captain of the team, Yang Yang could only keep comforting his teammates.
With Angola's counterattack in the second half, the Chinese team began to be a little passive on the scene.
Especially after seventy minutes.
Physical fitness is also a big problem that restricts the performance of Chinese players. Even a few international players who have studied abroad have played three consecutive group matches, and their physical energy consumption is really too much.
On the other hand, Angola is getting more and more fierce.
Alihan started to make substitutions one after another from the 60th minute, and turned to a defensive counterattack strategy.
Hao Junmin and Li Tie were replaced, Gao Lin was taken down, and Yang Yang was at the forefront.
...
"The Chinese team made the third substitution!"
The voice of the national TV commentator came from the TV.
Combined with the pictures on the scene, it can be seen that Zhao Xuri stood on the sidelines, and midfielder Zhou Haibin was replaced.
"It's another substitution to strengthen the midfield defence."
"Obviously, the game was very difficult, and Alihan's attitude was also very clear. Even if he couldn't score, he must try his best to keep the goal. At this time, the team's offensive burden is on Yang Yang."
"Only Yang Yang is left in the front court now."
In major cities in China, whether it is a lively bar, a quiet home, or an office working late at night, countless fans are sitting in front of the TV watching the final game.
"In the other game, Portugal and Mexico are currently 1-1, the two sides are tied, and both goals came in the first half, and in the second half, there was a clear lack of continuity between the two teams. The fighting spirit of the game.”
"Obviously, they're all out of the group stage."
"Maybe it's a bit cruel for China and Angola, but that's football."
"The most important thing for the Chinese team now is to work harder and try to win Angola, so there is still a glimmer of hope."
"If we fail to beat Angola, we don't even have the right to accuse the opponent of playing tacit understanding."
The analysis of the state TV commentator also represents the expectations of all Chinese fans.
Score a goal and take a win.
Even if you really miss the cut in the end, this World Cup will definitely be a success!
If I can't win Angola tonight, although it is still very successful, I still have some regrets.
The commentator of the national TV station also shouted out the voices of thousands of fans.
"Come on, Team China!"
"Come on, Yang Yang!"
…………
…………
Leipzig, Germany.
Yang Yang couldn't hear the voices of domestic fans, but he could imagine it.
Because of the last World Cup, he was just a fan.
The game time was getting shorter and shorter, and after 80 minutes, Angola began to actively attack.
But even so, they kept at least two or three players behind to guard against Yang Yang every time.
Yang Yang was very active in running the gap, patiently waiting for the pass from his teammates behind him.
Almost every time the Chinese team steals the ball, he will quickly seize the opportunity to run the gap, and every time his teammates pass the ball, he will sprint quickly, and this sprint constantly consumes his physical energy.
After each sprint, he would feel that he was about to die, and he would not be able to sprint next time.
But the next time, he still gritted his teeth and continued to rush forward.
This feeling is not unfamiliar to him, because he has experienced it many times, but he is also very clear that his physical energy is indeed being depleted again and again, and he also strives for every chance to breathe and try to recover.
The players in the midfield and backcourt also worked hard.
For them, the World Cup is the highest stage of their careers, and they have no reason to squander and waste a minute and a second on this stage.
Sometimes, hard work does not necessarily pay off, but sometimes it can.
When Angola began to press the attack, the Chinese team organized a tight barrier in the midfield.
Li Tie, Zhao Junzhe, and Zhao Xuri formed the three midfielders to firmly protect the defense line, blocking Angola's attack time and time again.
In the 83rd minute, Angola scored again in the 30-meter area of the Chinese team and tried to send the ball into the penalty area of the Chinese team again, but Zhao Junzhe intercepted the ball with a sliding tackle halfway through.
Zhao Xuri kicked the ball to the left before everyone else.
After Hao Junmin got the ball from the left, he quickly took it forward and looked up at the front.
Yang Yang in the middle stretched out his hand and pointed to the front right of him, signaling Hao Junmin to pass there.
Almost at the moment Hao Junmin passed the ball, Yang Yang started at the same time, got rid of the two Angolan players who were following him, and sprinted towards the right front from the middle.
...
"The Chinese team played a quick counterattack."
"Behind Hao Junmin's diagonal pass from the left."
"Yang Yang sprinted quickly, the referee did not blow his whistle, and the Chinese team was not offside."
...
Yang Yang gritted his teeth and chased after him at the fastest speed.
Combining his own observations and God's vision, he determined where the ball was falling. After rushing over, he headed the ball forward, headed the ball in front of him, and accelerated to catch up.
Angola's two central defenders were also fast, but they were always one step behind Yang Yang and could only defend all the way back to the penalty area.
At this time, Yang Yang also dribbled the ball from the right into the penalty area.
Angola's two central defenders are in a balanced position, and they are obviously very jealous of Yang Yang, because Yang Yang, who takes the initiative to attack, has more options. He can choose to break through with his right foot vertically, or he can choose to cut inward with his left foot to hit the goal.
This requires the cooperation of Angola's players.
Obviously, they left the area behind the central defender to goalkeeper Ricardo.
Yang Yang dribbled the ball over, very fast, and directly faced the opponent's No. 5 central defender Cali.
The two met on the right side of the front of the penalty area. Cali kept retreating, but Yang Yang dribbled the ball so fast that he didn't give him any time to think and react. As soon as he stepped into the penalty area, a dexterous pendulum struck him.
Cali had already heard of Yang Yang's extraordinary pendulum, but he was caught off guard, he immediately reacted instinctively, thinking that he wanted to cut in, and immediately made a block, but Yang Yang put the ball in the direction of the goal with his left foot. Buckle, directly buckled Cali.
Goalkeeper Ricardo was obviously prepared, and immediately abandoned the door to attack, blocking the gap beside Cali, and pounced directly on Yang Yang.
But after dunking Kali, Yang Yang suddenly accelerated and shoved the ball to the baseline one step ahead, just in time to stab the attacking goalkeeper.
In order to avoid being intercepted by another central defender, Yang Yang also deliberately hit a half-high ball.
The result is that the opponent's central defender rushed into the goal with the ball!
And Yang Yang also rushed out of the court and hit the billboard on the side of the court.
...
"The ball is in!!!!"
"Oh my God, Yang Yang scored a wonderful goal in the 83rd minute with a long-distance attack!"
"One to zero!"
"This goal is bound to kill the game completely!"
"Fantastic goal from Yang Yang, 1-0!"
...
The whole stadium exploded!
Countless fans are madly cheering Yang Yang's name!
All the players of the Chinese team rushed towards Yang Yang in an instant.
Although the team was eliminated and stopped in the group stage, it is enough to have such a goal and such a victory!
Alihan raised his arms and shouted on the sidelines, venting his inner excitement and excitement.
When Yang Yang stood up from the billboard, he was quickly thrown to the ground by his teammates who were chasing him all the way.
Everyone is so excited!
This will be the first World Cup final victory in Chinese football history!
This is another tough breakthrough!
Especially for Asian teams!
