After an hour of fierce fighting, the Chinese team finally equalized the score in its first World Cup knockout stage match. The dawn of victory finally rose on the horizon. I don’t know how many people saw Wang Ai running around like a football quarterback after scoring a goal.
, eyes moist.
The World Cup quarter-finals that generations of Chinese have dreamed of are already in sight and are about to become a reality. In the early morning of June 26 in China, the General Administration of Sports of China, the Chinese Football Association, Chinese Super League clubs, football schools across China, and countless
Officials, coaches, players, and trainees were all so excited that they lost their voices for a moment, leaving only spontaneous applause that could not be heard by the national team in front of them.
In the center of the main stand, in a red camp, most of them are female fans for some reason. In the center are the surrounded family members, and in the lower middle are dozens of stars from the Hong Kong Star Football Team who have come all the way from the mainland. Here.
At this moment, Zhao Benshan stood up in the crowd, turned to the stands behind him, and played the suona. Then, dozens of celebrities stood up one after another, waited for the prelude to pass, and spoke collectively. Then, as if they pressed down on the hundreds of female fans behind them
After pressing the start button, the singing gradually rose from a low level. Then, the male fans on both sides of the female fans camp gathered together to respond as if they had rehearsed.
In the constantly noisy stands, the noise was not loud at first. When Duan Xuan noticed it, he urgently adjusted the on-site equipment to barely pick up some sound. Then, as the game resumed, the noise in the stands began to rise and fall.
At this time, the sound gradually attracted the attention of the fans at the scene, slowly radiated out from the center of the main stand, and was finally transmitted back to the country through the CCTV's live radio equipment.
It is the classic patriotic song "My Motherland"!
After a chorus of tens of thousands of people formed, it finally attracted the attention of the players who were competing fiercely on the field. What it means to hear such a song is self-evident. What tens of thousands of people at the scene conveyed is that behind them, they are far away on the other side of the earth.
Living rooms, bars, and outdoor large screens that have fallen into darkness are full of people and passion is surging.
"My Motherland" was played on a loop in the stands, turning this ordinary second knockout match of the World Cup into a large-scale concert and a large-scale patriotism education base.
During the game, Wang Ai glanced at the main stand, and could vaguely see many familiar faces. Faces that earned hundreds of thousands a song were singing for them for free. Wang Ai only dared to take a look, for fear that he would be too excited, but he was kind-hearted.
He advised Dayu and others not far away not to get excited.
Dayu rolled his eyes at Wang Ai: We have seen this formation before, okay? Just put aside your excitement and look at your unusual and strange look.
Just after rolling his eyes, Dayu got up and slapped his head: Where is the normal heart?
In the commentary box, Duan Xuan and Lao Ma didn't say a word for three whole minutes. They believed that this was a commentary that they would never forget, the kind of feeling that they were surrounded by people with the same emotions and dreams, being coerced and driven.
, is a different kind of happiness, a kind of happiness that takes off the mask, reveals the true self, and is no longer lonely.
Frightened by this power, Ecuador's defense began to make low-level mistakes.
In the 20th minute of the second half, the Ecuador team's attack was intercepted by Zheng Zhi's decisive move. Zheng Zhi looked up and glanced ahead, decisively pushed the ball to Xu Liang on his side. Xu Liang received the ball from the side and dribbled the ball towards the center.
Get closer, and then another long pass flew across the half court to the space on the right front of the court. Qu Bo fully demonstrated his speed advantage in the chase that started at the same time as Reyasco, and did not adjust the first time the football landed and bounced.
Played directly back to the middle.
Qu Bo knows that if he adjusts his footwork and pursues accurate placement and comfort, he may miss the opportunity. With a teammate who is versatile in offense, he does not have to worry about whether he can complete the shot.
If Xu Liang's kick is still within the normal range, then Qu Bo's kick is abnormal. It suddenly accelerated the attack rhythm and threw the same problem of lack of preparation to the Chinese and Ecuadorian players. In the end, the contest ended
It changes from both parties as a whole to both parties as individuals.
As for the individual, just as Qu Bo trusted him, Wang Ai was not afraid of anyone.
This half-high ball went straight to the corner of the penalty area. The first one to arrive was the alert Dayu. Although he was about to outflank his opponent, he was unable to exert force on his opponent in time. He simply stopped suddenly when he was approaching and blocked his opponent behind him.
Blocks the opponent's efforts to destroy the passing route.
Next to the two of them was Wang Ai, who was going forward inexorably. After he completed this powerful volley, Valencia rushed nearby.
The giant cannon erupted, and the football passed through the two central defenders, passed through the goalkeeper, and hit the net straight away. It even pulled the net back and pushed it up, scaring the reporters holding long lenses behind the goal to sit back.
Xu Liang's accuracy, Qu Bo's decisiveness, Dayu's support, and Wang Ai's shot made the score 3:2 in less than 10 seconds! This also exposed the long-pass and lob style of play that was behind the times.
It shows its high efficiency. As long as there is an all-around offensive forward to complete the final blow, no matter how strong your midfielder is or how perfect your system is, you can only be disappointed.
The Chinese coaches and substitutes jumped up and cheered on the sidelines, but the Ecuadorian team did not admit defeat, but instead inspired them to fight to the death. However, the Chinese team was originally a defensive counterattack, and now even Dayu retreated to the half court, and the personnel were dense.
At the same time, the Chinese coaching staff used two substitutions to continuously interrupt Ecuador's attacking rhythm, so that the scene became futile and intense, but it was never able to break the Chinese team's defensive system. Instead, Xu Liang's two long passes and Wang Ai's
The impact almost caused the gate of Ecuador to fall.
In the final stage of the game, the Ecuadorian team finally lost its balance. Espinosa, who had already received a yellow card, fell over and knocked down Wang Ai in the penalty area who was about to header the ball.
The Belgian referee showed a red card and gave the Chinese team a penalty kick.
"Brother Dayu, come on." Wang Ai pulled Li Jinyu, a genuine forward, and pointed to the spot.
Unexpectedly, he was rejected by the proud Dayu: "You are already eight, one more Golden Boot will be your guarantee."
"That's right, don't be vain, hurry up, everyone is waiting." Chen Yang, who had just replaced Shao Jiayi in the second half, and his teammates gathered around and pointed to the stands around the stadium.
The game time has reached the 46th minute of the second half, and all the fans stood up and looked forward to it.
Wang Ai, who was pushed to the penalty kick position by his teammates, smiled, took a deep breath, and succeeded in one fell swoop!
When the electronic scoreboard immediately changed the score from 3:2 to 4:2 after the referee's whistle was effective, the singing that had just stopped nervously echoed in the Gottlieb Daimler Arena again.
