174. Halftime

As the game progressed, the confrontation on the field became more intense. Since the referee's whistle was loose, no one had too many worries.

In the 38th minute of the first half, Roque Gil severely knocked down Batala in the midfield defense. However, because it was a foul during a ball confrontation, the referee did not do much.

Guoan's players were unhappy now.

Zhang Chengdong, who was closest to Batala, immediately rushed to Rock Gill and asked fiercely: "Do you fucking know how to play football?"

Rock Gill said with contempt: "I don't even know what you are talking about."

The two people who didn't speak the same language were basically talking to each other and couldn't communicate at all. Players from both sides also gathered around, and the referee quickly ran over to control the situation.

He first pulled Zhang Chengdong and Rock Gill away, then warned them separately, and finally pulled the two people together to shake hands and make peace.

Seeing this scene, Shen Fangjian also frowned with some disapproval and said: "The referee is out of control of the situation on the field now. It is a good thing to stick to his own penalty guidelines, but he gave a yellow card to the Longteng players prematurely.

, causing the mentality of the players on both sides to be unbalanced, there should be some flexibility in the penalty decisions, and we should not stick to the rules too much."

Sun Lei stood aside and did not answer.

At this point in the game, both players and coaches know that it is very difficult to score the ball into the opponent's players through sports battles, so set kicks become an opportunity that everyone must seize.

This is the case with Beijing Guoan's set kick this time. In addition to Batala, there is also Zhang Xizhe standing in front of the ball. At the same time, in the penalty area, there are as many as 6 players from the Guoan team ready to grab points or supplement at any time.

Shooting, this means that except for the goalkeeper, the deep-lying central defender and the defensive midfielder, all other players of the team participate in the attack.

It was Batala who finally took the penalty. His penalty was a little too big and flew directly over the wall to the small penalty area. This was the goalkeeper Zhou Wei's territory. Zhou Wei jumped up high without thinking.

Go get the ball.

But what Zhou Wei didn't expect was that there was someone more persistent than him. After he had touched the ball with his hand, someone still knocked him down with his body. Thinking that he would be safer in the small penalty area, he was obviously prepared.

It was a bit lacking. After getting the ball, he did not control the center of gravity of his body and fell hard to the ground. In order to ensure that the ball did not escape, even if it fell directly to the ground, he still held the ball tightly with both hands.

In this way, all the weight of the body was placed on the left arm, and Zhou Wei fell to the ground in great pain.

It was Beijing Guoan’s center Deyang who made this dangerous move.

DeYoung's action was the result of the players on both sides being unable to control their emotions after getting angry.

Zhou Wei, who was knocked down from the air, covered his arm in pain and didn't even care about the ball in his hand. It was obvious that this move had done a lot of harm to him.

After seeing this scene, the referee ran over quickly, blew the whistle in his mouth, and then directly took out the card to Deyang. Other players from the Guoan team nearby quickly came over to plead with Deyang, because from this time the referee's

Judging from the attitude, it is definitely not a small punishment.

Among them, Xu Yunlong, the captain of Guoan, explained anxiously: "He hit the car just now because he couldn't stop the car. Someone was pushing him from behind."

The surrounded referee had to push away the Guoan players who were blocking him, and then came to Deyang and showed him a yellow card. At the same time, he asked the Longteng team doctor to come in to check Zhou Wei's injury.

Seeing just a yellow card, Zhang Sheng angrily threw down the bottle of mineral water that he had just opened. The small penalty area is an area that the goalkeeper should absolutely protect. If someone is violated in this place, even if the action is not big, it is very likely to get a yellow card.

Not to mention a guy like Dejan who collides with the goalkeeper when he can't get the ball at all. If he encounters a referee who is strict about fouls, even a red card is not too much.

What he is more worried about now is Zhou Wei's body. After all, he is over 1.9 meters tall and weighs nearly 160 kilograms. Now it is all pressed on his arms. If it is a little more serious, the consequences will be disastrous.

Because the goalkeeper had to receive treatment on the field, the game had to be suspended. After questioning Zhou Wei, the team doctor slowly helped him sit up, began to carefully check his arm, and asked

his feelings.

Zhou Wei sucked in the air-conditioning and said, "I can still hold on, I just need to stop and slow down."

"Are you sure? I see that you are in pain. Don't joke about your body. If there is a situation, just tell the truth." As a team doctor, Li Xiang is very unwilling to see the players holding on for their main position.

Because it hurts the players too much.

Everyone has different views on fighting with injuries, especially in China. The phrase "fight with injuries" often appeared in the official media before, as if fighting without injuries cannot reflect a person's willpower.

, but from Li Xiang’s perspective, this is a very unprofessional approach.

Players who play with injuries are first of all irresponsible for their bodies, because if many injuries are not dealt with in time, they are likely to have endless troubles. For example, this is the case with Pato in the current team of Longteng. When he was in AC Milan, he often

It's just that I started participating in competitions before the injury was cured, which resulted in constant injuries and made my body very fragile.

Secondly, playing with injuries is also disrespectful to opponents and fans. Players with physical injuries will affect their own state most of the time. Competitive sports should be presented in the fullest state. No one wants their opponents to

Or the player you like doesn't show his full ability.

So when Zhou Wei once again expressed that he had no problem being able to continue playing, Li Xiang helped Zhou Wei use spray to relieve the pain and asked again: "Is there really no problem?"

After Zhou Wei stood up, in order to prove that he was fine, he waved his arm and said, "No problem."

Li Xiang had to leave the court and returned to the coaching bench. When faced with Zhang Sheng's inquiry, he said: "He said he was fine, but he was afraid that he would not want to leave the game in order not to affect the game."

Zhang Sheng heard the hidden meaning in Li Xiang's words and couldn't help but worry a little, that is, Zhou Wei might have been injured. Zhou Wei was in good condition before the game. He was also very excited about this game. Don't be serious.

If a game affects his body, then the gain outweighs the loss. Now we can't force him to leave the game, we can only see his performance in the next game.

Soon Zhou Wei's performance gave Zhang Sheng some relief. In the 42nd minute, Beijing Guoan took advantage of the slight decline in the Longteng team's physical fitness, and Zhang Chengdong from the right forced the bottom and succeeded. Batala in the middle.

Under the cover of De Yang, he grabbed the point. The shot was very fast and the angle was very good. Fortunately, Zhou Wei was very focused and blocked it with his left hand. The ball deflected and hit the goal.

The bottom line popped up on the column.

Shen Fangjian also specifically praised Zhou Wei this time: "Batala's shot! Zhou Wei's reaction was so fast. If the ball hadn't been touched, it would have gone in 100% of the time. It seems that the injury just now did not affect him too much."

Big impact.”

"The fact that he was selected for this national team training squad proves that his ability is very good." Sun Lei said, "The Dragons have conceded the fewest goals in the league this season, only 18, and Zhou Wei is indispensable.

, I feel a little surprised that I have only been selected into the national team roster now, because it is too late."

Shen Fangjian said: "Zhou Wei's ability is undoubted, but sometimes he still seems a bit unstable. This has always been an area where he has been criticized. Maybe coach Peilan also considered this reason and added him now."

Let’s make the national team’s roster.”

Sun Lei smiled and explained to Zhou Wei: "I think the reason for his instability is largely because he is too young. He is not yet 19 years old. A goalkeeper has such a level at this age.

, The future is promising. As young people, they lack experience and are a bit rough. The more games they play, the more mature they will be."

Shen Fangjian also agreed with Sun Lei's statement: "That's true. Let's take a look at Guoan's corner kick. This should be the last corner kick before the end of the first half."

Soon Beijing Guoan took the corner kick, but the penalty was too close to the small penalty area. Zhou Wei jumped high and got it steadily with both hands. Beijing Guoan had a premeditated decision before the end of the first half.

The offensive was brought to an end by Zhou Wei's outstanding performance.

Due to the decline in physical fitness, Zhou Wei did not take the big shot again, but passed the goal kick to Shu Jun on the right, allowing the Longteng team to catch their breath in the backcourt.

The Guoan team stepped up its pressing in the frontcourt, hoping to attack again.

Facing the Guoan team's full press, the Longteng players skillfully used their fast passing and quick receiving tactics to drain their energy in the midfield and backfield.

Seeing that the Longteng team played so negatively, the Guoan fans booed loudly.

But they soon suppressed their boos, because the Longteng team launched a surprise attack after a series of kicks. This time, Tao Wentao, who got the ball near the midfield, suddenly accelerated and got rid of He Dacheng's defense.

, and then passed the ball to Ben Alpha on the left.

Ben Alpha also took advantage of the Guoan team's opportunity to press forward and counterattacked. He made a series of beautiful passes on the wing to throw away Mazic and Zhou Ting who came to defend. He faced He Dacheng who rushed back to defend.

At that time, he made a beautiful pass and handed the ball to the middle. Pato, who came to meet him, dribbled the ball into the penalty area. Facing Xu Yunlong who was blocking the ball, he made a light smash and got out of the shooting angle.

Then he shot the ball in the other direction blocked by Yang Zhi.

Because the ball was shot into the far corner, Yang Zhi had no way to save it and could only helplessly turn his head and watch the ball fly towards the goal.

Colleagues also shot from the far corner. Pato chose a rather tricky angle and pursued the angle too much. The ball hit the far post and bounced into the penalty area.

Lei Tenglong, who came to cover the position, quickly kicked the ball out of the baseline.

The Longteng team returned a goal post to Beijing Guoan and also got a corner kick.

Shen Fangjian also said regretfully: "Pato, Pato's shot, oh, it hit the goal post. Yang Zhi had already given up. Fortunately, Lei Tenglong was focused and he drove the ball out of the baseline.

.”

"The counterattack speed of the Longteng team is really fast. Tao Wentao suddenly started the pass in the middle and accelerated the attack. The cooperation between Ben Alpha and Pato was so beautiful. These two foreign players are top-notch in the Chinese Super League.

"." Sun Lei said with envy, "Having star-level players like them lead the young players of the Longteng team is really a good move."

Soon the Longteng team took a corner kick from Ben Alpha. Wen Kai in the middle grabbed the point, but the ball went slightly high and flew over the crossbar.

After the corner kick, the first half of the game also ended with the referee's whistle. Both teams had good opportunities, but neither scored a goal. The suspense was brought to the second half of the game.

middle.

During the halftime break, Manzano cheered the players energetically: "Everyone performed well in the first half and put a lot of pressure on the opponent. We will continue in the second half."

"The biggest weakness of the Dragons is their lack of physical fitness. They are at their weakest near the end of each half." Manzano waved his hands exaggeratedly and said, "Their problem will be more serious in the second half. We

In the second half, the press must be strengthened to consume more of their physical energy.”

"We must remember that this is our home court, we can play more proactively." Manzano obviously also saw the performance of the referee in the first half and specifically added.

The Guoan players all nodded.

In the Longteng team's locker room, Zhang Sheng was saying the same thing: "I won't go into details about the importance of this game. We played well in the first half, and Zhou Wei made several good saves!"

Zhang Sheng praised Zhou Wei in particular, and then asked with concern: "Is your injury okay?"

Zhou Wei quickly replied: "It's okay. It just hurt a little at the time. It's okay now."

Zhang Sheng nodded and said: "In the second half, we need to pass the ball more to control the game. The two wing players, Ding Huaiyi and Ben Alpha, you have to strengthen the breakthrough. The wing should be our advantage."

"Furthermore, we have to pay attention during the fight. Their movements are very big, but the referee's whistle is very soft. Plus this is their home court, we have to consider the factor of the home whistle, so we try to pass the ball out as quickly as possible.

, don’t stay on your feet too long!” Zhang Sheng specifically reminded the opponent of their home court advantage.

Finally, Zhang Sheng gave everyone an exciting message: "The news from Jinan is that Evergrande is now one goal behind in the away game!"
