The game had already taken a 2-0 lead in just 27 minutes, and the situation already seemed to be collapsing.
The high-energy opponents also made urgent tactical adjustments.
"Oh? Aolm has suspended adjustments to see what kind of adjustments they will make."
"But to be honest, it's a bit difficult to adjust, huh?"
"I pulled the entire formation back, trying to defend first."
Gao Ran felt calm after seeing his opponent's adjustment. The opponent also realized that they could no longer concede the ball, even if they didn't score.
The game was a cumulative two-goal match, and there was still a chance of overturning after being two goals behind.
Although Gao Ran fed him twice, Aolm did not give up easily.
However, faced with the absolute strength gap, Aolm didn't have much chance at all.
If a top player plays against a second-tier player, it won't be a big problem as long as the state is not particularly bad.
After continuous passes, Gao Ran expanded the score to 3-0 in the first half!
Countless excited fans felt a lot more relaxed when they saw this score. They basically won.
Aolm's mentality also gradually changed, and he surrendered in the following games. In the two games, 4-0, 3-0, Gao Ran easily advanced to the next round!
"I have to say that Gao Ran's opponents from the qualifiers to now have not been very strong."
"Yes, but I think Gao Ran may encounter challenges in the next round."
In the semi-finals, Gao Ran will face Lin Lei, one of the hottest newcomers in the country.
Lin Lei is younger than Gao Ran in terms of age. It is the first time for both parties to participate in the FIFA World Finals qualifiers.
A talented player from Yanjing E-Sports Academy.
He also performed very well in the just-concluded FIFA Summer Games, and defeated Wan Wenxi 2-1 in the regular season match against Dream. His strength should not be underestimated.
There were no surprises in the two quarterfinals matches in the second half, between Ye Zhou and South Korea’s No. 1 player Park Tae Jin.
The top four also found their way out. The Chinese players in the top half were engaged in a civil war, with Gao Ran facing off against Lin Lei.
In the second half, Ye Zhou played against Park Taizhen.
There are three Chinese players in the top four. As long as it is not a Korean player who breaks out in the end, everyone can accept it.
The first game of the semi-finals started quickly.
Gao Ran is already ready in the training room.
Lin Lei, Gao Ran's opponent, didn't do much research on Gao Ran because Gao Ran had not participated in any professional FIFA games before. He could only see Gao Ran's playing style through the few games of Gao Ran's qualifiers.
Target.
However, the high-burning performance in the qualifying games was quite casual, and not much could be seen.
"A tough battle."
Lin Lei also said to himself after entering the room.
Whether you are envious, admire, or disdainful of Gao Ran, there is only one thing.
Everyone has no doubts about his ability. In the language of the entertainment industry, this is a player with absolutely no black spots in his business ability.
He is full of honors, but he is absolutely out of his mind to look down on Gao Ran under such circumstances.
Lin Lei's teammates and analysts at the club helped him study the high-burning 352 formation, which also gave him some ideas.
…
After the game was ready, Lot29 and Plate were also a little surprised.
"oh?"
"Lin Lei played a 4231. Audiences who are familiar with FIFA know that Lin Lei's regular lineup is 433. This time it should be specially adjusted to deal with the high-burning 352."
Lot29 nodded:
"Indeed, we have analyzed before that the most important core point of the high-burning 352 set is the offensive midfielder Kaka, which can actually be said to be the attacking midfielder."
"With his high-burning skills, it is difficult to defend against one defensive midfielder. Lin Lei uses two defensive midfielders just to strangle Kaka."
The plate also has some concerns:
"However, the interception operation of this pair of defensive midfielders is a bit difficult. I don't know if Lin Lei can handle it."
"Good start to the first half of the first set! It's a high-burning option at Old Trafford."
The game officially started. In the first half, Lin Lei kicked off the ball first. After the kick-off, Lin Lei also took the lead in making a push. However, Gao Ran was not impatient and had no intention of implementing a high-intensity press at the first moment.
Gao Ran is very confident in his own ability. As long as the ball is in a safe area, he can just wait for the opportunity to intercept in the midfield.
"There are a lot of high-energy midfielders."
"I personally think the 4231 formation is more restrained than the 352, yes!"
"Just play two wings!"
On the field, Lin Lei quickly launched an attack after testing! He is an offensive player, and the coach kept telling him that he must not lose his characteristics, otherwise he would not be able to win.
However, after successive passes, Lin Lei also frowned a little.
Not only do the opponent's midfielders have more players, they also feel like they are always paying attention to his passing route.
Lin Lei did not dare to pass several dangerous passes. He felt that if he passed the ball, it would be intercepted.
Lin Lei's operation was very beautiful. Despite the tight defense, he still found a chance to slip the ball into the feet of the forward alien Ronaldo!
Ronaldo turned around and hit the goal with a kick that went over the crossbar.
"Lin Lei beat me very hard."
"Very fierce, that's his style."
After 20 minutes in the first half, Lin Lei had already completed 3 shots!
However, these three shots are not a threat from Gao Ran's perspective.
Unless you have magical operations to force a space out of the way to score a goal from the dead end.
Too tender.
Gao Ran simply commented on this opponent.
He also knew why Wan Wenxi lost to him. This player's offensive intensity was very high, and even players of the same level would be beaten.
Suppressing style, this kind of offensive player can easily smooth his own touch, but the one who is being suppressed will definitely not be so smooth.
However, for a player of Gao Ran's level, if he can match Lin Lei's offensive intensity, he will naturally not be particularly afraid of his opponent's attack.
Gao Ran only needs one chance to penetrate the opponent's goal.
In the 31st minute, with high-energy control of the ball, Kaká once again fell into the trap of the opponent's double midfielders Vieira and Kanter!
In this situation, Gao Ran was forcibly intercepted once before.
Gao Ran can show off a wave of operations to try 1 over 2, but it is completely unnecessary.
Kaka suddenly accelerated and threw away Vieira in front of him. Kante instantly made up the defense! Gao Ran calmly picked the ball between the two!
Beckham, who came in behind, received the ball steadily at an angle and pushed it straight to Irving's feet!
A simple three-foot pass broke through Lin Lei's interception in the midfield!
"So strong."
Lin Lei did not dare to be careless in the slightest. This kind of delivery of three or two kicks seemed to be unskilled, but in fact, there could be no deviation in the timing and intensity of each kick.
Lin Lei used his defender to cover up! But he never expected that at this moment, Gao Ran suddenly changed speed!
