Chinese champion

Chapter 284 Road to Glory Lucky Penalty Kick
"Li Min tripped Tony from behind, and the referee showed him a yellow card! This is his second foul on Tony in just 2 minutes!" Wang Jianxiang explained in a sad tone. Indeed, now Italy The Chinese team completely took the upper hand on the field, crushing the Chinese team so hard that they couldn't even breathe, and it was still that kind of all-round suppression. The game has been going on for nearly 10 minutes, and the Chinese team even hit the goal with one shot. None of the chances within the door frame.

Li Min was suppressed by Tony, Wang Xiaomin was suppressed by Zambrotta, and Zhanfeng was suppressed by Nesta. In these three positions, the gap between the Chinese team is the most obvious. Tony's height, weight and consciousness are much stronger than Li Min. And Zambrotta, who can use both feet flexibly, and has a long shot, is also better than Wang Xiaomin. Zhanfeng is even worse. He is stared at by Nesta, the world's number one central defender, and can't even get the ball. I realized that Zhu Jun and Zhang Qi's side crosses are often useless. The most unfavorable thing is that even the two strongest positions of the Chinese team are now in trouble. Hu Yong is completely restrained by Totti, and there is no extra He used his energy to help his teammates, while Pei Wei did nothing under the close marking and foul tactics of the opponent's two midfielders.

"It won't work like this!" Menotti murmured off the court.

If the Italian team continues to attack like this, the players are likely to lose the courage and fighting spirit to attack, so the game can be said to be over at the beginning.

Totti cleverly shot the free kick from under the jumping wall, but Wu Qi was very focused and was not fooled by Totti's fake action. He made a beautiful side throw and firmly held the ball in his arms.

"Steady everyone! Don't rush to attack!" Wu Qi, who stood up from the ground, yelled twice while holding the ball, and then threw the ball to Hu Yong. At the same time, he did not forget to remind: "Don't worry!"

After hearing Wu Qi's words, Hu Yong calmed down. He didn't give the ball directly to Pei Wei, who was surrounded by two midfielders, as he did a few times before, but took the ball forward by himself.

Aren't you staring at Pei Wei with your two backs?Then I will take the ball forward and see if you can find someone to defend!

But the two midfielders in Italy remained unmoved and stuck to Pei Wei. Totti, who returned to defense, chased him from the side. Hu Yong had to protect the ball, and then distributed the ball to Wang Xiaomin on the left.

Wang Xiaomin rushed forward with the ball. Zambrotta's goal just now made him feel that he had lost face, and he wanted to get the debt back!
Although this time it's not a direct confrontation with Zambrotta, but he must find some interest in the opponent.

Camoranesi wanted to stop him, but Wang Xiaomin rushed past him as soon as he accelerated, and dribbled the ball directly across the center line.

Pirlo was forced to drop Pei Wei to defend him, because Zambrotta had a more important task - to mark Zhu Jun, and this full-back with strong assist ability passed the ball very accurately and cooperated with Zhanfeng most tacitly Yes, you can't let him pass the ball into the penalty area so comfortably.

Wang Xiaomin waited until Pirlo was close to him before passing the ball, but the target became Pei Wei in the middle.

The cheers of the Chinese fans in the stands rang out immediately. This was the first time that Pei Wei got the ball so comfortably in the game!
Pei Wei got rid of Gattuso temporarily by relying on his own speed, but when he turned around, the bearded face of Milan's lower back immediately appeared in front of him again.

Gattuso stared closely at Pei Wei. Pei Wei swiped the ball with his left foot. When Kankan only swiped halfway, he suddenly flicked the ball to the left!
Although Gattuso had been prepared for a long time, he was inevitably shaken by Pei Wei. His movements were too fast. If you hadn't confronted Pei Wei in person, you would never have imagined that when Pei Wei made the move How fast is it.

However, the next captain of AC Milan is not easy to match. His defensive fierceness is directly proportional to his appearance. With a quick turn, Gattuso accurately stuck in front of Pei Wei, trying to use his physical advantage to break Down the ball.

The moment he turned around, Pei Wei pulled the ball with his outstretched left foot like lightning, and the ball flew back obediently. Side rushed over!
Pei Wei got rid of Gattuso!Immediately afterwards, he poked the rolled ball forward, and immediately jumped forward with his whole body, just avoiding Perotta's flying shovel rushing from the side and rear!

"Two people in a row! Pei Wei got rid of the two generals in the midfield of the Italian team!" Wang Jianxiang shouted excitedly. From the beginning of the game to the present, the Chinese team has been suppressed by the opponent. This is the most brilliant time for the Chinese team Performance.

The sudden disappearance of the defensive pressure made Pei Wei feel very brisk. He took the ball forward a few steps, and then suddenly kicked a long shot before the opposing defender came up!
Cannavaro, who was about to come up to defend, raised his leg subconsciously, but this action had the opposite effect. The ball bounced off his thigh and refracted to the other end of the goal!
Buffon had already made a saving action, but suddenly saw the ball flying to the other side, his heart almost jumped out of fright, he put his left hand on the ground, stopped his body abruptly, and then rolled and crawled. Passed over, and when the ball was about to roll over the goal line, his hands were tightly placed on it!
Pei Wei shook his head regretfully. He really deserves to be the number one goalkeeper in the world today. If he wants to break his goal, he has to use some very tricky shots.

But when I think about it carefully, I don't seem to have broken through the gate guarded by Buffon in the game. This record must be broken today.Pei Wei thought firmly in his heart.

****************************************
Sometimes momentum is very uncertain, a seemingly small matter can often change the momentum of the two sides, just like now, although Pei Wei's shot did not score, it broke the morale of the Chinese team. Mobilized up.Among other things, at least the scene was not as ugly as the 15 minutes just now.

In Italy's attack, Camoranesi dribbled the ball from the side, but was met with Wang Xiaomin's tenacious close defense. Being harassed by Wang Xiaomin's hidden tricks, he had to use his speed to force his way to the bottom, but Wang Xiaomin's interference was very strong. The timely, hasty pass is not very in place.

Li Min went around to defend and got stuck in front of Tony, then jumped high and pushed the ball out forcefully.

After fighting with Tony for a period of time, Li Min also gradually mastered the method of marking him, which is to go around and defend.

With Tony's size and weight, he is definitely not very flexible in terms of flexibility. Instead of confronting him head-on, he should pay attention to grab the first landing point. At this point, Li Min's quick turnaround feature was brought into play.

The ball from the clearance was obtained by Hu Yong. Instead of entanglement with Pirlo who rushed forward, he swung his long legs and made a long pass!
The ball flew to the left as accurately as a cruise missile. Zhu Jun hadn't returned to defense just now. He was waiting for this opportunity!
With a slight bump of his right foot in front of him, the ball immediately flew forward two or three meters obediently, Zhu Jun immediately accelerated and broke through to the side!
Just now Zambrotta has gone up to assist, and now there is a large open field in front of him!

"Fabio! Go up and watch him! Alessandro, watch that tall guy! Ivan, pay attention to the front of the restricted area, that kid Pei will come up anytime!"

Buffon moved back while commanding the defense loudly. He has been cooperating with this defense for several years. Under his command, the defenders of the Italian team moved immediately and laid a solid line in the penalty area line of defense.

Cannavaro greeted him. He was about the same height as Zhu Jun, but his physical fitness was much stronger. Under his interference, Zhu Jun's speed gradually slowed down.

Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching from far behind, Zhu Jun knew that Zambrotta was not far away from him. When he and Cannavaro faced each other, it is estimated that there are not many players in the world who can stand between the two of them. No ball under the defense.

Zhu Jun's pace gradually changed to small steps, and his feet kept paddling around the ball in an attempt to confuse Cannavaro's sight.

But the captain of the Italian national team was unmoved. He didn't seem to see Zhu Jun in his eyes, but just stared at the ball at Zhu Jun's feet.

The most feared thing for offensive players is this kind of defensive player. It is impossible to deal with such defenders by feints, and they can only rely on speed and strength to fight recklessly.

Zhu Jun moved!With a flick of his left foot on the ball, his whole body rushed to the left, and it seemed that he was going to bottom. Cannavaro immediately turned his body to one side, ready to block him behind him!

But Zhu Jun immediately recovered his outstretched foot, dialed the ball back, and then volleyed with his right foot before Cannavaro returned to the defense!
The ball flew to the lower left corner of the goal, and Buffon made a beautiful side throw and saved the ball over the baseline.

Zhu Jun stomped his feet. It seems that his right foot is still not as flexible as his left foot. If the ball was shot with his left foot just now, Buffon would look very embarrassed even if he could throw it out.

The Chinese team's corner kick was directly held in Buffon's arms without causing any threat.

Although the Chinese team did not score any goals in these few attacks, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Chinese team has gradually regained its disadvantages. It is no longer a one-sided situation, at least it has both offense and defense.

Seeing this situation, Lippi stood up and gestured to the players on the field.

The Italian team did not attack as aggressively as before, but retreated a bit, and the situation on the field began to calm down.

The Chinese team has an advantage in possession of the ball, almost pressing on the Italian team's half-court attack, but in fact the effect is not very good. Any team will feel a headache for the Italian team that shrinks the defense, and this is also the Italian team. The way the team does best.

When there are at least two or three players around him defending, even Pei Wei can't comfortably pass the ball. The Chinese team can only use long-range shots to increase the number of shots, but it is like scratching the itch, guarding against Buffon. The gate poses no threat.

At the same time, the counterattack of the Italian team continued to stimulate the nerves of the Chinese players. Wang Xiaomin also received a yellow card for a foul on Camoranesi in the midfield. The game did not even reach half the time. The Chinese team has already had two defenders get yellow cards, which is not a good sign.

However, Wang Xiaomin's foul this time was helpless, because Camoranesi was the only defender in front of him at the time. If he was passed, then Camoranesi would definitely drive straight in. At that time, it would not be a yellow card. Problem solved.

Shaoyi's dribble in front of the penalty area was intercepted by Cannavaro, Italy organized a counterattack again, and the ball was directly passed to Totti's feet near the center circle.

Hu Yong broke Totti's ball, and Prince Roma's condition has not recovered to the best. Just now he wanted to forcefully break through Hu Yong's defense, but Hu Yong squeezed his body and lost his position, and the ball was also cleaned by Hu Yong. Cut off neatly.

After stealing the ball, Hu Yong took the ball forward and broke through. He imagined that Wang Xiaomin had attracted the defenders for Pei Wei as he did in the previous counterattack.

But this kind of breakthrough would not work in a positional battle, and Perotta and Camoranesi immediately forced over from the left and the right.

Hu Yong is not arrogant enough to get rid of the defense of the two opponents. After all, dribbling is not his forte. He can only protect the ball first, and then seize a gap and pass the ball to Pei Wei who ran over to meet him.

Pei Wei passed the ball to Shaoyi who had withdrawn from the penalty area, and then accelerated to run forward. Shaoyi quickly turned the ball across, two to one.

Pirlo and Gattuso were still chasing after him. At this time, Zhu Jun ran towards Pei Wei. Pei Wei sent the ball to his feet. Zhu Jun only let the ball stay for a second, and then passed the ball back. To Pei Wei's feet, and then to the side of the body, blocking the route of two Italian midfielders chasing Pei Wei.

After two consecutive ones, Pei Wei finally got rid of the defense of these two.

Zambrotta, who followed Zhu Jun, rushed forward, and Pei Wei swung his left foot as if he was about to shoot.

Zambrotta was really fooled, he stretched out his foot to block, but Pei Wei dunked the ball, got rid of him, and broke into the penalty area!
"The Chinese team tore apart Italy's defense with a series of exquisite coordination! Pei Wei rushed into the penalty area, will he shoot?" Wang Jianxiang shouted passionately.

Sure enough, as soon as Pei Wei entered the penalty area, he immediately swung his left foot. At this distance, even facing the best goalkeeper in the world, Buffon, he still has the confidence to score the ball.

If there are "Battie area" and "Piero area", then the area with a radius of 25 meters centered on the goal is the "Pei Wei" area!
Nesta was attracted by Zhanfeng, and the remaining one, Cannavaro, rushed forward. He wanted to stop Pei Wei before he shot!
A flying shovel, but Cannavaro didn't aim at the person, but stopped in front of Pei Wei, blocking the angle of his shot!

Pei Wei's foot hit the ball, and the ball rushed out like an arrow off the string. Cannavaro rushed a little too far. He raised his hand subconsciously, and the ball just hit his raised arm!
"Cannavaro blocked Pei Wei's shot with his body! It's a pity... Wait, the referee blew the whistle, he ran into the penalty area and pointed to the penalty spot! Penalty! The Chinese team won the first half No A penalty kick was awarded in 307 minutes!" Wang Jianxiang's mood changed from low to high, and his voice also changed accordingly: "The referee signaled Cannavaro to handball, let's take a look at the slow motion... Indeed, the ball did Hit Cannavaro's arm, no doubt! This penalty is obvious!"

Pei Wei got up from the ground, clenched his fists tightly, and hugged Zhan Feng who came up to celebrate.

His shot just now was aimed at the far corner, trying to avoid Cannavaro's body, but Cannavaro rushed too hard, and his hands were out of the range of his body. The Chinese team was lucky to win Take a penalty.

The Italian players gathered around the referee to complain, but the referee was standing at the top of the penalty area and could see it clearly, and the penalty cannot be changed.

Larionda waved away the Italian players. Seeing that there was no hope of appealing, the Italian players also dispersed one after another. Their hopes were all pinned on Buffon.

Pei Wei took the ball from the referee, and he will personally take the penalty kick to break the record of not scoring against Buffon.

After solemnly putting the ball away, Pei Wei straightened his waist and let out a long breath.

Buffon also bent down and stared at Pei Wei's feet. Unlike those goalkeepers who like to jump around to disturb the opponent's psychology, he is quieter.But for free-throw shooters, sometimes a silent goalie puts more pressure on them.

The referee blew the whistle, Pei Wei took a few steps back, and then suddenly started running, slamming the ball with his left foot.

Buffon pounced to the left, but the ball flew into the goal from where he had just stood - in the middle!The power is so great that the ball net is raised high!
Pei Wei clenched his fists and raised his head to the sky and roared. Then he was immediately pressed down on the lawn by his ecstatic teammates.

What about Italy, the world's number one defender, as long as we attack with all our strength, we can still score goals in Buffon's hands!
In the No.308 minute of the first half, with Pei Wei scoring a penalty kick, the score became 1:1.

The rest of the first half was spent in a dull manner. Italy's defense was not slack because of this conceded goal, and the Chinese team could not find a better way to score. With the whistle of the referee, the two sides led With a draw into the locker room.
