Seeing Lemos blocking Luo Kai's shot from the bottom line, the fans and neighbors watching the game in Laiqing Football Park let out exclamations and screams.
Taking advantage of the gap before the game resumed, they started discussing.
"Oops! If this goal is scored...that would be awesome! Another lead in the first three minutes!"
"Although we didn't score a goal, it's still a good sign! I feel like we'll be able to score a goal soon!"
"Looking at it this way, the Brazilian team isn't that good either... There won't be another 6:0, right?"
"6:0 is too exaggerated. Just win by three goals!"
"This is my first time watching a game. Is this the defending champion you are talking about?"
“Come on Team China!”
"The Chinese team must win!!"
It threatened the Brazilian team's goal from the beginning and almost resulted in a goal.
The Chinese people watching the football were very excited.
Especially those who don't usually watch football or pay attention to football, they lack understanding of the strength of the Brazilian team.
Seeing the performance of the Chinese team after the opening, I felt proud and optimistic.
However, they did not wait long, and the Brazilian team used an attack that also threatened Lin Zhiyuan's goal, which dissipated a lot of these people's optimism.
After the Chinese team's corner kick was taken, it failed to threaten the Brazilian team's goal.
Of course, the Brazilian team was not allowed to counterattack.
Seeing that the Chinese players returned to defense quickly, the Brazilian team gave up the idea of a fast break.
Instead, they used their technical advantages to advance towards the Chinese team's goal.
When Kabangka got the ball outside the penalty area, he found that the Chinese team's defense was well arranged in the penalty area, but they did not come up to block him immediately, so he simply used a cold arrow outside the penalty area and took a long shot.
!
When he was throwing his foot, Ou Yangjin rushed to block the shot.
But the football still rushed past him!
Fortunately, goalkeeper Lin Zhiyuan was very focused. He flew into the air, put his fists together, and knocked away the flying football!
"Wow!"
"call--!"
The spectators who just thought that the Chinese team could beat the Brazilian team screamed and gasped one after another.
But they can't really breathe a sigh of relief.
Because the Brazilian team's offense is not over yet.
The football hit by Lin Zhiyuan flew out of the penalty area.
Hulay competed with Kao for the ball in midfield.
After both people jumped up, he was knocked away by Kaa and failed to head the ball. Kaa pushed the ball back.
After receiving the ball, Gonsalves distributed the ball to the left wing.
Fonseca took the ball directly forward and then accelerated to chase it.
Luo Kai used this move to defeat him before, and now he used the same move to get rid of Luo Kai.
Fonseca, who caught up with the ball, passed the ball directly to the center without stopping!
The flying height of the football is not high, but the ball speed is very fast.
No matter who it touches during this process, it will deflect the flight direction and fly into the goal.
If a defensive player touches it, it's an own goal.
Therefore, such a cross gives the defensive players a special headache - stretch your feet, maybe you will score an own goal. If you don't stretch your feet, you will just watch the football fly past your defense zone, in case there is an offensive player ambushing behind you.
Wouldn't that just leak the ball to him?
Faced with such a ball, someone has to take responsibility.
When the football flew over from the front, Wang Guangwei made a decisive move - he did not shovel the football directly, but made a slight circle, twisted his body and kicked the football with his legs!
The football was kicked cleanly out of the sideline by him!
Brazil also received a throw-in in the final third.
The foul ball was thrown out and the Brazilian team continued to attack.
After a series of inverted passes, right winger Lesinho picked up the ball near the baseline.
Left back Peng Weijun came up to defend.
Facing Peng Weijun's defense, Lesinho made a pass in the extreme space with a fried ball, and stunned the football from the bottom line!
Then he bypassed Peng Weijun's blocker from outside the baseline and got in!
The Chinese fans in the stands exclaimed, while the Brazilian fans cheered!
Wang Guangwei stepped forward and rushed over to cover the defense.
When Lecinho saw Wang Guangwei coming up, he immediately passed the football into the space behind Wang Guangwei!
There are kabon cards inserted there!
Kabangka faced the rolling football and raised his right foot as if to shoot.
Xia Xiaoyu rushed over from the middle and stretched out his feet to block.
But Kabangka's shot was just a fake!
After his right foot came down, he dunked the football into the middle, just passing by Xia Xiaoyu!
After dunking Xia Xiaoyu, he shot again!
This time it’s the left foot!
At that moment, all the Chinese fans in the stands and in front of the TV widened their eyes and forgot to breathe.
When Kabangka was about to come into contact with the football, his left ankle tightened inwards, and he changed from shooting from the far corner to volleying from the near corner!
This caught Lin Zhiyuan off guard!
He had seen Kabangka's bow and arrow shooting action before and thought he was going to hit the far corner. His whole center of gravity tilted towards the far side. Unexpectedly, Kabangka shot to the near corner!
He froze in place and could only turn his head and watch the football fly towards the near corner of the goal...
However, Kabangka's own drastic change also affected the quality of his shooting.
He did successfully deceive Lin Zhiyuan with this shot, but it also greatly reduced his shooting accuracy.
In the end, the football missed the baseline from the outside of the near post!
Although it went sideways, it still scared the Chinese fans in the stands.
There was an exhale in Shanhai Stadium, as if the stadium was breathing.
"Wow! Missed! Kabangka's shot missed! What a risk! There was something wrong with the Chinese team's defense in the penalty area just now! No one went to confront Kabangka immediately!"
"It's only been seven minutes, and both the Chinese team and the Brazilian team have made many threatening attacks! This is really unexpected. As a World Cup semi-final, the game started so fiercely... and the Chinese team is the first
It is the first time that the Chinese team has participated in the World Cup semi-finals, but from these few minutes of the game, you can’t tell that this is the first time that this Chinese team has participated in the World Cup semi-finals!”
"The Chinese team just had an attack that almost scored a goal, and the Brazilian team immediately retaliated! It feels like the two teams are somewhat tit-for-tat... If we continue to play at this pace, I think this game may be very exciting.
, in the process of back and forth between the two sides, there will be a lot of gaps in the defense, and there may be too many goals!"
…
The neutral commentators in the commentary box were very excited.
At this stage of the World Cup, each team has only two games left, and the semifinals are the watershed.
It is the dividing line between victory and defeat, the dividing line between heaven and hell.
In such an important competition, both participating parties will definitely be very cautious, fearing that they will make a mistake first and be seized by their opponents.
So generally speaking, after the game starts, there will be a stage of testing each other, and the scene may not be good-looking.
Those experienced commentators have already accepted this possibility and are commentating on the game with such expectations.
As a result, less than ten minutes into the semi-final, there was already a slightly different atmosphere.
The Chinese team, which was considered inexperienced and should take cautious measures, played quite boldly. Instead, they took the lead in attacking the team that threatened to attack.
The Brazilian team's subsequent counterattack was not timid at all and was even more threatening.
The performance of the two teams in these seven minutes has almost determined the direction and temperament of this game.
It looks like the tip of a needle is against the grain of wheat.
Although in the history of the World Cup, the two teams have only met once before, making it difficult for outsiders to imagine what other stories could happen between them.
From the perspective of outsiders, the current tit-for-tat confrontation between these two teams should be to compete for tickets to the finals.
No one knows the story behind them, because that story is really unimaginable for ordinary people, and they are completely unable to understand the mentality of both parties.
Especially I can't understand the thoughts of Chinese players.
The fledgling team can draw with the powerful Brazilian team 3:3, what else can they do?
This is a "great victory" for which we should burn incense and kowtow in gratitude.
It’s enough for those Chinese players to brag about for a lifetime.
What else is there to be dissatisfied with?
How do you say this?
All I can say is...fortunately, the Chinese players do not have the same thoughts as ordinary people, otherwise Chinese fans would not see the Chinese team standing on the stage of the World Cup semi-finals today.
※※※
In the first seven minutes, each team had an attack that threatened the opponent's goal, which kicked off the game.
Next, the Chinese team and the Brazilian team maintained this rhythm, going back and forth.
In the tenth minute, Chinese team Peng Weijun sent a high ball pass from the left wing.
The football passed over the head of Brazilian center back Amorim and fell backwards.
Zhou Zijing jumped up and headed the ball while retreating. He pushed the football to the far corner!
Brazil goalkeeper Lemos could only jump in the middle of the run and tried his best to reach back...but he didn't touch the ball!
The football went over the crossbar amid the cheers of Chinese fans...
In the fourteenth minute, the Brazilian team organized an attack and advanced to the 30-meter area of the Chinese team. Kabangka distributed the football to the Brazilian right back Gazal who was advancing on the right wing.
The latter faced the Chinese team's tight formation and could not find a chance to break into the penalty area, and was unwilling to pass the ball directly and crudely.
So a long-distance inverted triangle was passed.
The football was passed to the top of the penalty arc outside the penalty area of the Chinese team.
Then the Brazilian team's defensive midfielder Gonçalves rounded his thigh and took a long shot!
As a result, the football flew high over the crossbar of the Chinese team's goal and plunged into the stands behind the goal.
Fans raised their arms and fought for it.
It's like a stone being thrown into the water, causing ripples.
In the 17th minute, when Xia Xiaoyu tried to pass the ball forward, Brazilian midfielder Netorela predicted the passing route in advance and intercepted the ball halfway. The Brazilian team took advantage of the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
Netolera hands the football to Gonçalves.
Gonsalves passed the football forward again, to the front of Kabangka's diagonal path.
Kabangka drove the football away from Qin Qi like a wind!
Chinese fans in the stands let out harsh boos and screams.
Wang Guangwei and Yuan Da quickly compensated from two different directions.
Kabangka turned over and passed the football into the space behind Wang Guangwei!
Brazilian forward Reinaldo Lima makes a diagonal pass!
But Peng Weijun entangled him, and when he caught the ball, he bumped into him.
This collision caused Lima to fail to catch the ball and stop it slightly.
By the time he regained control of the ball, he had lost his best chance to shoot.
In the end I had to force the shot.
Lin Zhiyuan fell to the ground and threw the football on the turf in front of the goal.
In the 20th minute, Hulay completed his first shot in the game. He accurately found the landing point of the football when Amorim and Kao were flanked by him, but it was precisely because of the
Double-teamed by two Brazilian central defenders, one on the left and one on the right, he was unable to fully exert his strength even if he received the cross from Luo Kai.
But despite this, he still tried his best to push the ball to a place that made it difficult for goalkeeper Lemos to throw it - he pushed the football downwards, and the football rebounded after hitting the ground, grazing the outside edge of the back post and flying out of the baseline.
!
Lemos, who was standing in the middle of the goal, fought hard to fight back but failed to catch the ball...
Although the goal didn't go in, it scared him and the Brazilian fans in the stands into a cold sweat.
"Hu Lai! Oops!" He Feng held his head in his hands and shouted regretfully in the commentary box.
Then he praised in an exciting tone: "Amid the double-teaming of Amorim and Kao, I was still able to grab the spot... Hu Lai's sense of smell in front of the goal is the best in the world!"
Li Qingqing, who was next to him, criticized: "Actually, Hu Lai didn't hit the ball well. He probably wanted the ball to hit the inside of the goal post, but he didn't control it well and it missed the ball!"
He Feng wanted to complain: Isn't this good enough? It's not easy to be able to push the football to the point where the Brazilian fans scream in surprise under such circumstances, isn't it?
However, when he thought about Li Qingqing's identity, he nodded and agreed: "Indeed, there was still interference from Amorim and Cao! In this game, as the top scorer of the Chinese team, Hu Lai will definitely be attacked by the Brazilian team like this
'Super standard treatment'..."
Li Qingqing said: "Don't worry, there will always be a chance. In this game, you must be patient and don't be too obsessed with scoring goals..."
Hearing her say this, He Feng couldn't help but start thinking:
I wonder if you also said this to Hu Lai in private before the game...
But he still expressed his support for Li Qingqing's words: "Yes, Qingqing is right!"
