The players of the Chinese Olympic team who took the lead were celebrating wildly, while the Argentinian players stared blankly at the Chinese players who were not far away from them.
He Feng and Yan Kang were in the commentary box at Versailles, saying that they felt that the goal came naturally and logically.
The players of the Argentine Olympic team obviously don't think so.
They don't think it's natural for the Olympic team to score goals at all. They are obviously weaker than us, so can scoring our goals be considered natural?
It's only natural that we score against them!
Melli looked very angry when he lost the ball. This time he did not stare blankly at the celebrating Chinese players, but kicked the air into the air, fully expressing his emotions with body language.
He was not complaining that his teammates failed to defend the ball. In fact, the Argentine Olympic team had nothing to criticize in this defense.
Compared with the first goal conceded, the Chinese team's second goal was more convincing.
This was a beautiful teamwork. Everyone shot the ball with one kick, and the passing and running routes were very clear. It shows that these players have practiced such offensive routines in daily training, otherwise they would not be able to understand each other well.
Facing the Chinese team's smooth and continuous passing and cooperation in the frontcourt, the Argentine Olympic team's defense did everything it could.
Considering that Hu Lai and Zhang Qinghuan joined the team as over-age players and are not members of the Olympic team, their time to train with the team is limited.
Their tacit understanding may come from the earlier period of the Chinese national team.
After all, Xia Xiaoyu and Zhou Zijing are also members of the national team...
Faced with such continuous passes, it is really difficult for the defender to make any effective defense.
Not to mention that Hu Lai shocked everyone in the end. Instead of shooting the ball himself, he passed the ball!
If Hulay shoots directly, Montea, Rojas and Penalva should be able to block the ball.
Who would have thought this bastard would pass the ball?
At this time, Zhou Zijing became a "fish that slipped through the net" without anyone keeping an eye on him.
For a striker who can play for a Premier League team, is such a shot too difficult?
So the ball went in.
But we can't blame Montea just because Hulay passed the ball. It was wrong for both Rojas and Rojas to attack Hulay. After all, when Hulay gets the ball in the penalty area, his danger level must be the highest.
If Montea was alone, Hulay might be able to score by himself.
He has a lot of "track record" to prove it, so Rojas made the right choice.
Even if we lose the ball because of this, that's fine.
It can only be said that Hu Lai is really terrible. In such a situation, he can still stay awake enough and choose to pass the ball to Zhou Zijing, who has a better chance than himself.
There were rumors before that the relationship between Zhou Zijing and Hu Lai was not very good. The evidence is that he had just gone to Leeds City and made wild remarks about making Leeds City fans forget Hu Lai. As a result, Leeds City fans booed him wildly.
It can be seen from this that the relationship between Zhou Zijing and Hu Lai should not be very good.
But in the face of the opportunity, Hu Lai could completely ignore personal grudges and pass the football to Zhou Zijing selflessly and generously...
Facing such an opponent, Merry had nothing to say except void and anger.

Zhou Zijing finally broke free from the excitement of his teammates. He immediately looked back at the place where he had just skated and knelt.
The turf was covered with all kinds of marks.
After he knelt down, Xia Xiaoyu also knelt down to celebrate, along with others.
Facing the mess, Zhou Zijing didn't know whether he had slipped out of the three bars just now...
Depend on!
He cursed in his mind, it was all in vain again!
The other teammates didn't know that Zhou Zijing had already competed with the "three stripes", so they excitedly rushed over to him, slapping and beating him.
Zhou Zijing could only force a smile, but he was too embarrassed to blame his teammates for ruining his celebration...
After all, this ball made everyone so excited.
This is a lead against Argentina!

When the players of the Chinese Olympic team returned to their own half, the head coach of the Argentine Olympic team, Palladini, was making gestures to his players and reminded them loudly:
"Recover! Hold on! Don't keep throwing the ball!"
This is a correct decision, but it happened to Argentina, and the opponent was the Chinese team, which is somewhat... ironic.
The dignified Argentina should be so cautious when facing the Chinese team?
But there is no way, the situation is stronger than the people. If they lose the ball at this time and press out to attack the Chinese team, maybe they will lose another goal. Not to say it is impossible, the Chinese team can just lose the ball. They equalized the score just minutes later. What else is impossible for them in this game?
The morale of the Argentine players who had just lost the ball was greatly damaged and their mentality was different. In fact, there was no possibility of "quickly equalizing the score".
Anyway, it’s not long before the end of the first half at this time, so you can wait until the end of the first half and then adjust during the halftime break.
There is no need to take risks at this time.
When Melli on the field saw Paladini's gesture and instruction, he buried his head deeply, not letting anyone see the dissatisfied expression on his face at this moment.
When the score was equalized, he wanted to attack, but head coach Paladini asked the team to retreat and play steadily.
But what does such steady play bring to the team?
No, we still lost the ball.
Now after losing the ball, they say they want to recover it... Doesn't this clearly indicate that Argentina's offensive firepower is not as good as that of the Chinese team, so they can only avoid its edge and wait until halftime to adjust?
From the perspective of head coach Palladini, this arrangement is no problem.
But Melli still believes that sometimes we cannot simply consider tactical issues, but also consider the morale of the players.
If you suffer a blow after losing the ball, you may not perform well, so you need to stabilize your defense first.
But why can the Chinese team take advantage of the kick-off opportunity to directly equalize the score just after conceding the ball?
Don't they need to solidify their defense first?
If the Chinese team can do it, why can’t we Argentina?
The Chinese team has Hu Lai, but Argentina also has me!
Melly felt very unhappy, but still did not express it directly.
He just lowered his head. Even when Hu Lai ran past him, he did not raise his head.
This scene was recorded by an unknown number of photographers. I believe that after the game... no, maybe there is no need to wait until the end of the game. It will soon appear on the Internet and be ridiculed by countless people. Pick an eye-catching one
Titles such as:
"Meili bows his head to Hu Lai!"
"In front of the cheering Hu Lai, Melly lowered his noble head!"
…
By then, it is estimated that there will be another carnival of Melly black people on the Internet, which will make Melly fans furious.
But no matter which party it is, no one knows the real reason why Melly bowed his head...

After the game restarted, the Argentine Olympic team listened to coach Palladini's words and resumed defense.
The Olympic team, which had taken the lead, pressed forward aggressively, as if they really wanted to score another goal before the end of the first half.
Their aggressive offensive seemed to prove Palladini's wisdom in choosing to let the team retreat.
After two minutes of injury time in the first half, the referee blew the half-time whistle.
"The first half of the game is over! It's a little surprising. After conceding one goal first, the Chinese Olympic team scored two goals in a row and now leads with a score of 2:1! Facing the powerful Argentina, the Chinese Olympic team
The boys of the Olympic team did not have stage fright, and gave full play to their own characteristics, which made Argentina retreat many times during the game! As the Olympic games progress, we can clearly see the progress and changes in them! Let’s not talk about this game for now.
What is the final result? I think this is the biggest gain for us from participating in the Olympic Games!"
He Feng said, not knowing whether he was building character for the Olympic team or if he really thought so.
Indeed, if we focus on the future, it can be said that the current Olympic team has fulfilled everyone's hopes. Even if results are put aside, their performance in playing against strong teams has exceeded everyone's expectations.
Having an outstanding performance in this Olympic Games is a huge asset to these Olympic players.
It will definitely have a positive impact on their future careers.
But if there are requirements for the team's performance, then everyone still hopes that the Olympic team can defeat Argentina in the semi-finals and reach the final. This will at least ensure that they will definitely win a medal.
Otherwise, if you lose to Argentina, you will have to fight again with the losers from the United States and Brazil to decide whether you will get a medal.
This is the closest Chinese football has come to the honor of the World Series. Since it can lead Argentina in half the game, no one is willing to stop there.
Eliminate Argentina, reach the finals, and if you can still win a gold medal... what a grand occasion it would be!
Even if the Olympic Games has little gold content in world football, Chinese fans still cherish it extremely, because if they can really win the gold medal, this will be the first international competition championship for the Chinese men's football team!
All Chinese fans couldn't help but think so much during the halftime break.
