After hitting three goal posts and being disallowed a goal, the Chinese players were in a terrible state. In less than five minutes left in the first half, they played very impatiently and failed to create a shooting opportunity.
The Hong Kong team almost scored on a counterattack.
At the end of the first half, when players from both sides walked to the locker room, the national football team was booed, and Zhao Yang was even ridiculed.
"Weren't the five of us supposed to get in? Why didn't we get in?"
"Are you practicing hitting goalposts?"
"Blow it, blow it! Do all mainland players practice oral skills?"
"So what about La Liga players! Today we are going to eliminate you!"
…
The stadium is small and the stands are very close to the stadium. The national football team can clearly hear these sarcastic and insulting voices.
The national football players were frustrated and angry, and many players shouted national curses at the stands.
Although Zhao Yang didn't move his mouth, his face was ashen and he must be in an extremely unhappy mood.
The national football team's scolding escalated the confrontation. When the national football team players walked to the tunnel of the locker room, Hong Kong fans threw debris downwards, and a coin almost hit Zhao Yang in the face.
Return to the locker room.
Almost all the players kicked tables, smashed chairs and cursed.
From the stadium to the fans. From the fans to luck, I have been scolded over and over again.
Head coach Perrin and his assistants also came to the locker room, but they did not stop the players from venting.
Even these senior coaches are feeling aggrieved and want to curse, let alone these young people. If they are not allowed to vent, I don't know what will happen in the second half of the game.
In the last few minutes of the first half, the coaches watched the video and found that the ball had indeed been scored, but the referee did not change the decision on the spot. There was no use in appealing after the game. They could only admit that they were unlucky.
The players vented for seven minutes. When the voices gradually became quieter, Perrin said: "We played very well in the first half. We didn't score. It was just bad luck."
Yang Xu said angrily: "Zhao Yang's free kick can be blown out even if it goes in. There is nothing anyone can do about it."
Li Gang said from the sidelines: "Accept the reality, misjudgment is also part of the game."
Yang Xudao: "Not to mention being bullied, we have been bullied less often by West Asian referees in recent years."
Li Gang said: "Say less. If you keep talking, you may get a red card. You can shoulder that responsibility."
Yang Xu wanted to say more, but Zheng Zhi pulled his jersey and said, "Okay, stop talking, listen to the coach."
Perrin looked around at the players and said: "I won't talk about tactics. Being able to create so many shooting opportunities shows that our tactics are feasible. Our problem is to grasp the opportunities. When everyone shoots, they must
calm."
Wu Lei spread his hands and said: "I think I've shot calmly enough. What if I hit the goalpost? It's just a matter of a few centimeters."
Perland said: "A few centimeters shows that it is not accurate enough. You can be calmer. It is better to have fewer opportunities and to seize the ones that should be grasped. As long as you score one goal, the goals will continue to come."
Zheng Zhi laughed and said: "Is there something wrong with the feng shui? If we change the goal in the second half, we might score a goal right away."
Everyone laughed after hearing this. However, the game was so weird that many players really believed that there might be something wrong with Feng Shui.
In fact, this kind of psychological suggestion is sometimes very important to people.
After some people receive good psychological cues, they feel better and do things calmer and more efficiently.

Head coach Jin Bangkun encouraged the players with a smile on his face, "Everyone played well in the first half and achieved the goal we set before the game. We did not allow the opponent to score. Of course, there was luck in not losing the goal, but everyone's united defense was indispensable."
No. Luck favors those who work hard.”
"Everyone has seen that there were three goal posts, two were made by the guy named Zhao from La Liga, and one was a free kick. So, if we still want to keep the Chinese team zero in the second half, we have to watch it to death.
The one named Zhao."
"We must admit that we underestimated the strength of a La Liga player before the game. Fortunately, God favored us, otherwise, we might have been three goals behind."
"To defend such a player with super personal ability, ordinary defensive methods are not enough. We must dare to foul and prevent him from breaking through in key areas. Of course, we must also be good at fouling, not to receive cards, and not to give our opponents too much freedom.
The chance of the ball..."
Jin Pankun talked about some specific fouling techniques, and then ended his speech after checking that the time was almost up.
In the second half of the game, the two sides switched venues, and the Hong Kong Island team kicked off in the center circle.
The Chinese team had suppressed their anger, and after the kick-off, their formation pressed forward aggressively, pressing against the Hong Kong team's ball-handling players.
The players of the Hong Kong Island team were forced to have no passing line and could only pass the ball back to goalkeeper Yip Honghui.
When Ye Honghui saw Yang Xufei rushing towards him, he didn't dare to be careless and drove the ball towards the frontcourt with a big kick.
The ball's landing point was snatched by central defender Zhang Peng. If it was the first half, maybe he would have stopped to organize, but now, Zhang Peng directly flew up and kicked towards the opponent's penalty area.
The ball landed not far from the corner of the penalty area, exactly where Zhao Yang was.
Zhao Yang took the lead and blocked the position with his back, preventing the defender from coming over to fight for the header.
Hong Kong Island team's defender Zhang Jianfeng is not worried. Zhao Yang has his back to the goal. Even if he stops the ball, he will not let Zhao Yang turn around.
Moreover, the ball is high and fast, making it very difficult to stop. If Zhao Yang has problems stopping the ball, Zhang Jianfeng is ready to steal or destroy it.
However, what makes Zhang Jianfeng a little confused is that Zhao Yang's position is a bit far, and he probably has to use his toes to reach it if he stretches his thighs.
I heard that this guy surnamed Zhao turned out to be an amateur player. Could it be that his judgment of the landing point was inaccurate?
Just when Zhang Jianfeng was confused, the ball started to fall. Zhao Yang suddenly pushed his back hard against him, then took advantage of the situation and took a step forward, half-turned and raised his leg, which was a "volley".
This volley is extremely difficult and highly concealable.
Goalkeeper Ye Honghui was blocked from view by defender Zhang Jianfeng and was unable to see Zhao Yang's action immediately. In addition, Ye Honghui did not expect that Zhao Yang would shoot directly from that position.
The ball had already whizzed into the penalty area before Ye Honghui made a save. At this time, the cucumbers were cold. Ye Honghui made a save. Before his feet even left the ground, the ball flew into the net like a cannonball.
When the goalkeeper couldn't make the save, one thought came to everyone's mind: could it still be a goalpost?
However, this time fate did not favor the Hong Kong team, but favored the Chinese team, and the ball flew directly into the net.
1:0
55 seconds into the second half, Zhao Yang shot a shocking long-range shot through the door of the Hong Kong Island team.
