"Haha!" After laughing happily, Li Yi couldn't help but think in his heart that although he has not been involved in professional football for a long time, he has scored a lot of goals. To be fair, Li Yi is really sure that he has a few or so
, whether he scores a goal, he can enter the competition of the top 10 goals in international football of the year! After all, Li Yi is not the only lucky person in the world. Don’t you remember Ibrahimovic’s amazing barb more than 30 meters away from the goal?
?
However, Li Yi can now be 100% sure about Klasnic's header. Even if it does not rank first among the ugliest shots of the year, it will not be any problem to rank among the top three!
Why? In the small penalty area, when he dived for a ball that was about as high as an adult man's thigh, he might not have deflected the ball but instead pushed it away. Li Yi asked himself, even if McLaren asked him to do it deliberately, Li Yi
Yi may not be able to do it. It is conceivable that Krashnich just did an awesome thing!
Unknowingly, the first half of this fiercely contested game came to an end!
The score on the field remained at the opening 0-0. Although both sides had some opportunities, no one could change the score!
Taking the opportunity for the players from both sides to enter the lounge to rest, Xiaobei, who happened to be sitting next to Li Yi, asked Li Yi as if he had nothing to say, "Lee, how are you? Do you have any opinions about this game? If
If you had to choose, which side do you think has a higher chance of winning?"
"Uh!" The team boss took the initiative to strike up a conversation with him, and he also had a good personal relationship with Xiaobei. It was not necessary and impossible for Li Yi to turn a blind eye at this moment![
Pretending to think seriously for a while, Li Yi replied, "Subjectively speaking, I still think Croatia has a higher chance of winning! However, if I were asked to buy a bet, I would choose a draw between the two sides within 90 minutes!"
"
"Oh?" I was just asking casually to kill the time of chatting between games. I never thought that even in this case, Li Yi could say something surprising. Beckham immediately asked with interest.
"Are you sure this game will be a draw?"
Spreading his hands and pretending to be innocent, Li Yi simply explained: "From the first half of the game, it is not difficult to see that both sides are determined to win this game and worked hard enough on the court, but it is a pity that
Whether it was Croatia's lack of preparation before the game, or whether it was the Turkish coach who really worked hard on defense, in short, Turkey's targeted deployment of Croatia's offense in this game was very successful!
Coupled with Klashnic's incredible header in the first half, we can draw the conclusion that luck is not on Croatia's side today. Therefore, it is really not very easy for them to break through Turkey's defense.
What an easy thing!”
"Haha! That's a good analysis! It's a pity that players are not allowed to buy bets, otherwise I would buy it now. If the game is tied, I might be able to make a small profit!"
"Come on." He jokingly gave Beckham a look of disdain, and Li Yi said sourly, "Who in the "Entertainment Circle" doesn't know that you and your hot girls are famous for making money and becoming popular?
Not to mention that players are not allowed to participate in gambling, even if they are allowed, can you be interested in this small amount of money?"
"Haha!" The joke was exposed by Li Yi on the spot, and Xiaobei was not angry. He looked at each other and smiled, and then the two of them tacitly agreed not to continue talking about this topic and brought it up to other things!
After returning from the second half of the game, the situation on the field was the same as Li Yi analyzed. Although he saw Turkey's very targeted defensive strategy before the game, the Croatian coach made corresponding adjustments in the midfield, but after all, the halftime break
With only 15 minutes, the players had no time to digest many of his ideas.
Therefore, after returning from the second half, although Croatia was much stronger offensively than in the first half, it has been unable to form a real threat like Klasnic's header in the first half.
A shot from the Turkish goal!
This situation lasted until the second half of the game between the two sides was about to end!
In the 3rd minute of stoppage time! It should have been seen that the game was about to end and was about to enter overtime. At the same time, Croatia played with a rhythm for the whole game. The physical fitness reached a bottleneck position. Turkey should not have done so.
, giving Croatia a chance to kill itself!
Modric, still Modric, was almost exactly the same as the one in the first half. He also swayed left and right in the penalty area, attracting a lot of Turkish defenders to chase and intercept, and then passed the ball to the extreme.
The middle of the penalty area! Unexpectedly, the situation was similar to the first half, even worse than the shot in the first half. Faced with this opportunity, which was also a hundred times harder to score than not to score, Olic was very cheating and gave the ball directly to
In the arms of Turkish goalkeeper Rustu!
In the moment before the shot, Olic had even thought about his next celebration, but when he saw the ball, it ended up like this. After completing the shot, he was too shy to see people, so he directly plunged his head into the grass in front of him.
middle!
"Toot, toot, toot!" And because the injury time of the game had already arrived, it was only when he saw Croatia getting a close chance to score that the referee allowed Croatia to complete the attack. After confirming Olic's
After the shot was confiscated by Rustu, the whistle was blown to end the game immediately! [
This also means that the two sides ended in a draw within 90 minutes of regular time, and had to proceed with the extremely cruel overtime battle!
In the first half of the overtime, both sides had to work hard for a full hour and a half, and their physical strength could no longer keep up. In addition, the more the game reached such a critical moment, the two sides had to be more careful while attacking.
This directly leads to the situation. On the scene, it seems that both sides want to solve their opponents as soon as possible. In fact, no matter it is Croatia or Turkey, no one dares to be really ruthless. They will beat the opponent to death even if they sell their defense!
Therefore, the first half of overtime was undoubtedly very dull, even a half-time ball!
And this boring scene lasted until the second half of overtime was about to end!
However, the fans present today all thought that the quarter-finals would end in a draw between the two sides. When it entered the penalty shootout, at the 14th minute of the second half of overtime and the 119th minute of the game, Croatia...
And Klashnic, who they repeatedly wasted opportunities today, completed the decisive victory against Turkey!
At that time, Croatia performed almost the same as it did in the entire second half of overtime, that is, by constantly controlling the ball, on the one hand, it maintained pressure on Turkey, and on the other hand, it ensured the safety of its own goal!
However, just when Turkey resigned to their fate and stayed in their own half, waiting for the penalty shootout between the two sides, the scene was in turmoil!
On the field, after Croatia seemed to carelessly pass the ball to the right back Niko Kovac, the former did not pass the ball back again like his teammate did before. Instead, he passed the ball through Turkey despite Turkey's pressing.
Knocked the ball directly to the feet of Kranica in the frontcourt!
Facing Kovac's direct pass from the backcourt, Kranica made a perfect turn on the spot, slightly getting rid of the Turkish defender who had been sticking behind him, and then gently sent the ball forward with his right foot, passing the ball
Passed to Klashnic, whose performance in this game was a scam!
No matter how cheating he was when he seized the opportunity in front of the goal, at this moment, at least at this moment, Klashnic used his perfect response to insist on using up three substitutions and did not give him any
The coach who took the field responded!
He firmly withstood the Turkish central defender behind him, seemingly trying to stop the ball. In fact, Klashniqi didn't stop at all to hit the ball. Instead, he used the arch of his right foot to make a deft move. The first
At the right time, he knocked the ball to the right side of the court. At this time, due to being compressed by Croatia, there was no one on the right side!
