Gao Ran chose a defensive formation after 2-0, which is actually within the understanding of many Chinese viewers.
Because they know that Gao Ran is such a utilitarian player who focuses on winning in the professional arena.
"Icecream is going to have her last ditch effort."
"It depends on Gao Ran's defensive skills."
29 in the commentary box also said.
With the overall physical fitness of the high-burning lineup declining, whether the opponent can be defended is a key point.
In the 451 formation, the offense basically depends on how Irving performs as a substitute, and the main focus is on defense.
Icecream was trailing by two goals and brought on a midfielder and two physically fit forwards to make a final charge against the high-energy defense!
As the game continued, Gao Ran's eyes were always fixed on his opponent's movements. His defensive skills were as superb as his offense.
Even though the players' physical fitness has declined, the accuracy of judgment has not decreased at all!
Two consecutive balls destroyed the football and went out of bounds!
"High-burning slows down the pace and reduces the number of rounds."
"Yes, the result of 2-0 is very comfortable for Gao Ran."
Gao Ran has the ability to continue to expand the score, this is something everyone knows.
It's just that if you continue to attack your opponent, your opponent may find more opportunities. After all, his lineup is not a defensive lineup in the first place.
In the 80th minute, Icecream also had a great opportunity!
Cruyff, who came on as a substitute, used his speed to surpass the high-energy Gerrard and then rushed into the penalty area at full speed!
At this moment, Gao Ran made the decision to take full precautions.
Under the choice of defenders to attack, players in every other position covered the defense!
The advantages of APM are instantly reflected.
Icecream had no choice but to take a long shot from outside the penalty area!
This powerful and heavy shooting angle is also very tricky!
It's a pity that the high-energy goalkeeper tried his best to knock the football away and asked for a corner kick!
"In the final stage of the game, Icecream formed a siege on Gao Ran!"
29After speaking, Ye Zhou also said seriously:
"The opponent is not in a hurry. He is defending against the counterattack that may come at any time."
“Every detail has been taken care of.”
Although Icecream is young, she is still an experienced player. Players in individual events have basically lost all the way, so their mentality will be adjusted during the game.
Unfortunately, in the remaining time, Icecream found two close opportunities to score, but they had no comfortable kicking opportunities under the high-energy defense.
The last chance to shoot was held tightly by the high-energy goalkeeper Kahn!
As the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Gao Ran also won the first game with a score of 2-0.
After 5 minutes, Gao Ran will enter the second game with a 2-goal advantage.
The camera showed Gao Ran, and Gao Ran's expression didn't change much.
In the eyes of the media, the two of them went head-to-head with each other, a grudge battle, but whether they were Gao Ran or their opponents, it was impossible to have other thoughts after entering the arena.
It's just an opponent.
2 to 0 lead. This lead is big or small, and it is also very common in FIFA games.
It still depends on how the second half goes.
At the beginning of the second game, there were no adjustments to the lineups of both sides.
From Icecream's point of view, he had no problem playing the first set, but he just failed to defend the two goals.
He himself also missed 2 opportunities.
If we play better, we can definitely complete the comeback in the second game.
Gao Ran, on the other hand, will not make any changes and is equally confident in his own tactical system.
However, Icecream's first attack almost broke the high-burning goal!
After reaching the frontcourt, a sudden long-distance attack directly hit the high-burning post!
If this ball were to move just a little bit further to the left, Gao Ran would be helpless.
"This shot is too difficult."
"Icecream has pressed it very well."
Ye Zhou also admired how difficult this shot was. If he were to put himself in his shoes, this shot would probably not be as good as Icecream.
But the scene that left him speechless happened in the 24th minute of the first half!
In almost the same position, Gao Ran scored a world wave!
"pretty!"
"This kick is so awesome!"
"It's almost the same position, Gao Ran kicked back!"
"This brings the total score to 3-0. High-burning has a huge advantage!"
As Ye Zhou said, two goals and three goals put completely different pressure on the opponent.
After Icecream was hit by this world wave, her expression began to change.
He already feels that his journey to this year's FIFA World Finals seems to be coming to an end.
To be honest, he never thought he would fall in the top 8...
This year is his best year, and his draw is also very good. If he wins this battle.
The opponent in the semi-finals is either the Japanese player Ryota or the European player Tilk. The strength of these two players is on par with Icecream.
Even below him.
So when he saw the lottery, he thought he could reach the finals.
Who knew that I would meet such a dark horse player in the top 8, and he was a monster-level player.
The top player is, the more accurately he can judge the strength of other opponents. Now with Gao Ran sitting on the other side of him, he can't find any chance to win.
Even a comfortable scoring opportunity is difficult to create.
This is the difference in strength.
At the end of the first half of the second set, Icecream's momentum had weakened a lot.
Although he kept reminding himself that he still had a chance, the will to win had basically disappeared.
Gao Ran was not careless at all. The three-goal advantage was enough, and he changed to a defensive lineup again in the second half.
Icecream had given up attacking on the field when the game reached 70 minutes!
Gao Ran did not chase his opponent and maintained the 1-0 score until the end.
Successfully advanced to the semi-finals with a score of 3-0 in 2 games and zero opponents!
"Congratulations to Gao Ran for successfully advancing to the top four! Overall, this game was relatively easy."
"Yes, I didn't give my opponents many chances throughout the game."
The camera showed Gao Ran, who also got up from his seat, walked to his opponent's seat and shook hands with him in a friendly manner.
Then he walked off the stage amidst the cheers of the audience.
Only now have FIFA fans from various countries finally seen Gao Ran’s strength!
The overall strength of Group A in the group stage is not strong to begin with, and there is nothing to be gained from playing Wan Wenxi in the top 16. After all, the latter is not strong either.
But this game really showed Gao Ran’s full strength to the world.
Everyone knows the strength of Icecream. In such good condition this year, they are aiming for the championship.
Unexpectedly, I was shut out in the top 8.
Although the score was not very big, the rhythm of the entire game was in Gao Ran's hands, and Gao Ran's technical operations also suppressed his opponents...
