Similar to the enthusiasm expected by fans is the "high" level of ticket sales for this game.
Tickets for this game actually went on sale as early as September 24, and the tickets released in multiple batches were basically sold out in seconds. Two or three days before the game, the price of the tickets skyrocketed by at least
3 times. Second-hand ticket information on the Internet shows that the 180 yuan ticket is priced at 1,200 yuan online, the 680 yuan ticket is priced at 1,980 yuan, and the 1,280 yuan ticket has reached 2,400 yuan. Even so, there are still a lot of people holding money.
Can't buy tickets.
Not only are the tickets hard to get, but even the authentic national team jerseys in the sporting goods stores near the stadium have been sold out. As for the hotels near the stadium, they are fully booked early, and the prices are double than usual.
At 7:35 pm on October 6, the Chinese team’s match against Syria officially started.
From the first minute of the game, the Chinese team in the 4-3-3 formation launched a fierce attack. Unlike the Chinese team in history, which mainly relied on long passes to counterattack, Lippi's team insisted on walking on the ground and on the feet, while paying attention to technology.
At the same time, it also pays attention to confrontation. The pressure on the opponent starts from Nie Jiang on the front line.
In the fifth minute of the first half, Qin Minghao's pressure in the midfield caused the opponent's back pass to the goalkeeper to be too weak. Nie Jiang's timely attack almost caused the opponent's goalkeeper to make a mistake, but the opponent's haste also kicked the ball out of bounds.
The panic of the Syrian goalkeeper triggered roars of laughter from the Chinese fans in the audience.
In the next 20 minutes or so, the Chinese team basically suppressed Syria, especially Ding Huaiyi on the left. He controlled the entire wing by himself, causing the opponent's right back to receive a yellow card early.
In the 32nd minute of the first half, after the Chinese team made consecutive kicks in the 30-meter area, Qin Minghao played a through ball. Nie Jiang decisively cut into the penalty area to get the ball and then shot.
The football hit the goalpost and bounced off the baseline.
The fans in the stands let out a huge cry of regret, followed by thundering applause.
"Nie Jiang's shot, oh, the goal post. This goal should have been scored." He Wei, the commentator, also shouted with a bit of hatred for iron.
His partner Gong Lei advised: "It doesn't matter. Under the leadership of Lippi, the Chinese team has achieved everything they want. Scoring goals should be a matter of course."
However, until the referee blew the whistle to end the game in the first half, the score was still fixed at 0:0.
During the halftime break, both commentators praised China's performance in the first half. Indeed, 65% of the ball possession rate, 7 shots on goal, and a goal post, and the opponent received two yellow cards, so
The advantage is obvious. The only pity is the lack of a goal.
After the start of the second half, Syria replaced a defensive midfielder who had received a yellow card. They could not rely on skills and tactics to defend. They could only rely on fouls to complete the defensive purpose.
In the midst of a huge upset, the game entered the second half of the 20-minute mark. The fans in the stands began to chant "One goal, one goal", and the two commentators began to become impatient.
"We can't waste opportunities like this." He Wei looked anxious, "We have so many shots and we have to convert them into goals."
"Indeed. We can consider playing simpler." Gong Lei, who has a special liking for long passes and lobs, began to "make suggestions." "There is still a chance to get to a high point in the penalty area."
The Chinese team attacked quickly, and the Syrian team began to desperately stall for time.
Thirty minutes into the second half, the Syrian players began to have cramps in turn, and even their goalkeeper started to have cramps. After the cramps, the goalkeeper signaled that the shoelaces were loose and asked his teammates to help tie the shoelaces. The teammates couldn't tie them for a long time.
, he asked his teammates to leave again and took off his gloves to tie his shoes.
After this set of procedures, the Syrian players wished that the referee would blow the whistle to end the game.
When Syria goalkeeper Alema kicked the ball out with a big kick, the ball was scrambled by midfielder Qi Ming, who gave the ball to Zheng Zhi.
Zheng Zhi glanced at Ding Huaiyi on the left and drove the ball over with a big kick. Ding Huaiyi's stop this time made Syria a little panic, because he completed a half-turn when stopping the ball, and then under the squeeze of the Syrian players, he continued
Picking the ball in the air, he broke through the defense of two opposing players. Then Ding Huaiyi started to go down. Facing the opponent's defenders who came to defend, the handsome bull's tail that Chinese fans had been waiting for for a long time finally appeared at Ding Huaiyi's feet.
The Syrian defensive player was obviously unprepared and was forced to squat by Ding Huaiyi. Then Ding Huaiyi, who entered the penalty area, made a standard inverted triangle pass. Nie Jiang, who successfully moved, shot the ball and the ball passed through the Syrian goalkeeper Alma.
The armpit flew into the goal.
"Ding Huaiyi, Ding Huaiyi. A beautiful pass, an even more beautiful swipe of the cow's tail, passed the ball, Nie Jiang, shot! It's Nie Jiang, the Chinese team scored!" He Wei's commentary at this time has already been brought up.
She cried, "Beautiful! The Chinese team scored a goal! We are now leading 1:0 and let you delay for time. This is the punishment for players who treat the game negatively."
"Beautiful, beautiful!" Gong Lei applauded from the side, having forgotten his previous suggestions on tactics, "It's so beautiful. Ding Huaiyi has made a great contribution, and most of this goal should be attributed to him."
"Nie Jiang is celebrating like crazy, haha, he's about to take off his clothes." He Wei couldn't help but smile happily, "My teammates pulled him and didn't let him take it off, but he just wanted to take it off. This is a reflection on the first two games.
To vent. This 18-year-old talented forward has high expectations and also bears the greatest pressure. Now he can vent."
"I got a yellow card." Gong Lei said without any blame at all, "But young players must have the energy to refuse to admit defeat."
The goal scored by the Chinese team completely ignited the enthusiasm of the fans in the stands. Countless fans who came from all over the country to watch the game cheered in unison, and countless fans stamped their feet. The entire stand seemed to be crumbling amidst such noise.
The broadcast camera also moved in a far-angle panoramic manner, and the cheers of the audience and the cheers of the fans with their hands raised were fully visible to the audience in front of the TV.
After a goal, it was not the Chinese team that was impatient, but Syria. The players who had cramps before seemed to have eaten a new cap. Their waists were no longer sore, and their legs were no longer painful. They ran faster and faster.
Each one was more fierce than the other when they robbed them.
However, with the Chinese team deliberately controlling the ball, everything the Syrian players did was in vain. Qin Minghao's organization had the opponent in the palm of his hand.
At the 38th minute of the second half, the Chinese team won another corner kick. The Chinese team did not invest many players in this ball. Only Nie Jiang, Qi Ming and Ding Huaiyi were in the penalty area. When Qin Minghao's ball came out, the ball was originally in the penalty area.
Nie Jiang, who was in the center of the penalty area, suddenly rushed to the front point. His head-swinging attack caught Syrian goalkeeper Alema off guard. The ball hit the lower edge of the lintel and fell into the net.
"Nie Jiang's header was beautiful! The ball went in, and the Chinese team took a 2:0 lead." He Wei was extremely excited, "It would have been a blockbuster without a whistle. Nie Jiang scored twice, which is amazing."
"There is something wrong with the opponent's defense," Gong Lei said. "The defensive players didn't follow people, the goalkeeper didn't block the near corner, and the ball is definitely lost."
"After scoring this goal, Nie Jiang should stop taking off his clothes. If you take off your clothes again, you will be fined." With victory in sight, He Wei also made a joke.
"Haha. That's definitely not the case." Gong Lei was also amused.
Nie Jiang's celebration on the field was so crazy that his teammates from the national team gathered around and touched Nie Jiang's head to congratulate him on his goal.
Shortly after this goal, Lippi replaced Nie Jiang with Wu Lei to ensure the speed of counterattack in the frontcourt.
After having no hope of breaking through the back line led by Li Yun, Syria chose to give up, while the Chinese team made continuous substitution adjustments to allow other players to come on and familiarize themselves with the game atmosphere.
As the game came to an end, the chorus of "Singing the Motherland" rang out in the audience. With tears in their eyes, countless fans sang this uplifting song with all their strength, regardless of their hoarse voices that had been shouting for the whole game.
.
When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the cheers reached their climax.
"The game is over. The Chinese team defeated Syria 2:0 and won the game." He Wei shouted excitedly, "Like the fans in the stands, I am really happy now. Now I have to shout
Only in this way can I hear my own voice. The sound at the scene was too loud. This is our first victory in the top 12 games. I hope that under the leadership of coach Lippi, we can show our own style in the next games.
, play at our own level and get all the points we should get."
"It's not easy." Gong Lei can be considered an old man in Chinese football. He even spoke with a vibrato at this time, "Coach Lippi gave us a wonderful game, and the players also played their best game in recent years."
condition. I am also full of hope for the next game."
Immediately after the game, the result became the top trending search topic.
Some time ago, those who were still criticizing the Chinese team for wasting money and wasting the fans' feelings came out again with a new face. They kept throwing all kinds of free and good words at the Chinese team. Nie Jiang scored twice.
It is because of his 18-year-old age, six-pack abs after taking off his clothes, and slightly handsome face that he has become the latest national idol.
Countless netizens proudly announced on the Internet that they have become Nie Jiang's fans or his wives.
Taking advantage of this popularity, Nie Jiang's roaring breakthrough after stripping off his clothes also rushed to the top of the hot search. It can be said that the national football team killed the list that night.
After the game, Zhang Sheng also called Nie Jiang specifically: "How do you feel? You became a star all of a sudden."
"A few days ago, some people even called me shit." Nie Jiang said contemptuously.
"Haha! It's good to know. We play well and strive to score more goals. This is the right way. Uzbekistan will not be able to play well in the next game, so you have to be prepared." Zhang Sheng reminded Nie Jiang.
"Coach Lippi said he was prepared. We all believe in him." Nie Jiang's answer made Zhang Sheng very happy.
Although Nie Jiang praised Lippi in front of Zhang Sheng, Zhang Sheng didn't mean to be jealous at all. He knew that it was the respect Lippi deserved. On the contrary, he was very happy with Nie Jiang's confidence. It seems that Lippi has brought great influence to the national football team.
Very positive.
Today in the top 12, the Chinese team played three games in Group A. China, South Korea and Iran all won. In this way, the South Korean team relied on the advantage of goal difference to rank first with 7 points. Iran and South Korea also ranked first.
Ranked second with 7 points, while Uzbekistan lost to Iran in a strong home match and ranked third with 6 points. China relied on this victory to score 4 points and ranked fourth. Syria and Qatar each scored 1
Points and 0 points come next.
It can be said that the next match between China and Uzbekistan will be the key to determining whether the Chinese team can qualify for the World Cup. The Chinese team has already lost 5 points to South Korea and Iran, and Uzbekistan has to win the points no matter what.
With the expectations of the people across the country, the Chinese team flew to Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan, on the second day of the game. Lippi looked confident in front of the media, showing his confidence in scoring points, but in fact the points were really
Not easy to get.
Uzbekistan has many players playing in the Chinese Super League, such as Sergeyev and Klimets of Beijing Guoan, and Ismailov of Changchun Yatai. They are not unfamiliar with the players of the Chinese team at all.
The Chinese team knows very little about their other players, and their captain, Akhmedov, who later moved to Shanghai SIPG, is a very capable player, and the 900 euros that Germany transferred to him are not worth it.
Just talking.
However, the victory in the last game really stimulated Chinese fans. Many die-hard fans even followed the team to Uzbekistan. For them, it is not without good news. First of all, the fruits in Uzbekistan are really big, sweet, and really good.
It's delicious, and secondly, the game tickets are really cheap, only 30,000 soums (the currency of Uzbekistan), which is about 66 yuan.
It is said that more than 5,000 Chinese fans came to buy tickets to watch the game. In addition, the atmosphere in Tashkent’s current World Cup preliminaries does not seem to be strong. The fans are planning to create a better game atmosphere for the Chinese team-Chinese fans will always
They are the cutest, and even a little victory will make them devote their greatest enthusiasm.
After the game started, the Chinese team, which maintained the starting lineup of the previous game, formed a 4-5-1 formation. Considering the away game, the Chinese team strengthened the control of the midfield and reduced the number of people on the front line, but this did not
It means there is no more offense.
Although Akhmedov is strong enough, he cannot stand alone. The midfielder of Qin Minghao, Ding Huaiyi, Zheng Zhi, Xu Mingyu and Qiming has skills, hardness and experience. Not long after the game started, the Chinese team took over the midfield and also
took over the game.
The tactics Lippi designed for the Chinese team fully utilized the team's advantages in midfielders. He slowly implemented the multi-core tactics he planned to use on Guangzhou Evergrande on the Chinese national team. Qin
Minghao is the main core, Xu Mingyu is the wingman, Zheng Zhi is the backup, and Ding Huaiyi is used as the breakthrough point and midfielder. If you include Qi Ming, who Lippi is very optimistic about and is ready to take over or even surpass Zheng Zhi, the Chinese team can
It is said that it is one of the few teams in Asia that can copy the overall tactics of Europe.
This is why Ripiken took over the Chinese team and was confident of victory.
