Chinese champion

Chapter 285 The Road to Glory Maradona-Style Goal

The locker room of the Chinese team seemed a bit messy now. The substitute players were busy making room for the main players, handing water and towels. After a while, it was quiet after the members of the coaching staff came in.

"Everyone did a good job in the first half, the goal was very timely, you know, if you let the Italian team lead into the second half, then this game will be very difficult to play." Menotti said: "Li Min, I think you've figured out how to deal with Tony, keep doing that in the second half, but don't make mistakes, because it's a risky move to defend around the front, if you miss the ball then Tony will be open It's quite dangerous to shoot in the box without a player."

Li Min nodded. He felt very strenuous in the 45 minutes of the first half. The confrontation with Tony consumed a lot of energy. It was the first time he was so tired in a game. Ni and others were never so tired when they were fighting. The tiredness at that time was mainly psychological, because the opponents were forwards with better skills than physical strength, but this time the tiredness was really physical.

"Hu Yong, you did a good job in the first half, and those few advances were very effective! Remember, the second half should be so big, try to reduce Pei Wei's defensive pressure! Pei Wei, facing Gattuso and Pirlo Two people, do you feel strenuous?"

Pei Wei shook his head with a smile. These two were his old opponents in the league, and they were very familiar with each other. Although it was difficult, Pei Wei didn't think he would lose to them easily.

"Zhanfeng..." Menotti turned to look at Zhanfeng, but saw that the tall man was lowering his head, looking very remorseful.

Menotti laughed. In the eyes of others, Zhanfeng's performance in the first half was really terrible. Nesta's defense made the striker who scored fifteen goals in La Liga this season not have a single shot in the whole half. , Zhanfeng probably also thought that he would be replaced.

"Zhanfeng, don't be sad." Menotti stepped forward and patted Zhanfeng's shoulder: "Maybe you have failed in the eyes of others, but I don't think so. Living with Nesta, leaving him no time to worry about other things, is a remarkable thing in itself! What's more, the penalty created by Pei Wei is exactly what you did to restrain Nesta in the penalty area Pei Wei can only find a one-on-one opportunity if you have enough energy, we still need you to fight in the second half, understand?"

Zhan Feng nodded heavily, and replied loudly: "Understood!"

"Big Zhan, don't be so excited!" Pei Wei walked to Zhan Feng's side with a smile, and said mysteriously, "I'll tell you a secret... Alessandro, that guy Nesta, his waist The wound on the body is still not healed..."

This sentence immediately caused turmoil. Menotti grabbed Pei Wei's hand and asked eagerly, "Really? How did you know?"

He used Spanish in a hurry, but fortunately Pei Wei could understand: "Every time he jumps up and lands, his waist always looks stiff...and he has always been consciously avoiding a frontal collision. I have observed it many times. , can never be wrong!"

"Haha!" Menotti couldn't help laughing: "What a Lippi, I said how Nesta's back injury healed so quickly! It seems that he took a risky move! Zhanfeng, give me the second half Haunt Nesta more, try to choose to collide with him! I want to remove this stone!"

"Ah... Coach, I'm afraid this is not good?" Zhan Feng asked hesitantly.

"Stupid! I didn't ask you to foul maliciously! You must know that physical contact on the football field is normal! You only need to bump into him a few times! This is not a violation of sportsmanship! Don't worry, Your collision will not cause him serious injuries, at most it will prolong the treatment time for a few weeks!"

"Okay! Boys! There are still 45 minutes of the game waiting for us! If we can beat our opponents, we will enter the semi-finals of the World Cup! Come on!" Menotti raised his arms and shouted.

**************************************
Both sides did not make substitutions in the second half, and it seems that both Lippi and Menotti were satisfied with the performance of the players.

Just like at the beginning of the first half, the Italian team gave the Chinese team another blow. Tony received a pass from Perotta in front of the penalty area. Just when Li Min thought he was going to pass someone or pass the ball, he saw Tony dunked the ball, and immediately volleyed with his right foot!

Li Min stretched out his legs to block but missed. Fortunately, Tony missed the shot and the ball went wide of the right post.

"Damn it, you really can't be negligent when dealing with this guy." Li Min wiped off his sweat.

The Chinese team launched an attack. Pei Wei distributed the ball to the left under the cover of Hu Yong. Zhu Jun forcibly used his own speed to dodge a passing gap, and then passed the ball into the penalty area.

Nesta was about to get stuck, but he felt a body sticking to him, and at the same time a strong force rushed in, Nesta suddenly felt a burst of weakness, and his body could not help but tilted to one side.

Zhan Feng was overjoyed, this guy Pei Wei was right, he squeezed Nesta away with a bit of physical strength, this guy really hasn't healed from his injury, no wonder he always used it in the first half Hold yourself up with your hands.

Thinking about it, Zhanfeng jumped up without delay, Zhu Jun's pass was just right, he just needs to jump up comfortably, and then head the ball...

too easy!Zhanfeng, who was in the air, was still complacently thinking, the place where he shot was less than five meters away from the goal, and there was no one around to defend him, so he never thought that he would have a day to break through Buffon's goal...

All the fans in the stands stood up, and Wang Jianxiang also propped himself up and looked down the field, almost screaming.

At this time, Buffon suddenly made a move that can be said to be the best save in this World Cup!

Faced with this header that was close at hand, Buffon flicked his legs and flew into the air like a rocket. When he was very close to the goal post, he didn't have any strength at all, but rushed at the fastest speed. Passed over, stretched out his right hand, and flicked the front of the ball!
The ball fell, and Camoranesi, who returned to the defense, immediately cleared the siege!
But Buffon's head hit the post!

The referee stopped the game and the Italian team doctor immediately ran into the field to treat their hero!
Zhan Feng stood beside him with his hips crossed, looking at Buffon lying on the ground with disbelief.

He didn't think he made any mistakes in the shot just now, and almost no goalkeeper could save the header from this distance.

But Buffon did it. He made an action almost comparable to Banks' "save of the century". Although he also paid the price of hitting his head on the post, he still saved it after all.

After Schmeichel, Seaman, and Chilavert retired one after another, Peruzzi, Van der Sar, and Kahn aged, Buffon became the well-deserved No. [-] goalkeeper in the world, but in the past few years, he has received The impact of a group of rising stars.

Cech, 24 years old, Casillas, 25 years old, Wu Qi, 24 years old.These three most representative goalkeepers of the Mesozoic era have proved in the past few years that they have the ability to attack the throne of the world's number one goalkeeper, but Buffon proved with the save just now that, anyway, the world's number one goalkeeper It's still me!

After a few minutes of treatment, Buffon stood up. It seems that the impact just now did not have much impact on him.

The game continued, and Zhu Jun threw the ball back to the Italian team. His kind gesture also made the audience in the stadium applaud.

Italy's offense, Totti broke through Hu Yong's defense after taking the ball, and then volleyed in front of the penalty area!
The moment the ball flew out from under his feet, Hu Yong stretched out his foot tenaciously and touched the side of the ball.

The powerful shot immediately slowed down, and Wu Qi easily held the ball in his hand.

Wu Qi threw the ball to attack, and Hu Yong passed the ball to Pei Wei who found a gap by running. Pei Wei turned around while catching the ball and wiped past Pirlo who was chasing behind him.

After the start of the second half, Pei Wei's performance became more and more outstanding. His non-stop running on the field also made Gattuso and Pirlo exhausted.

After turning around, Pei Wei was facing Gattuso who was pressing up. He first made a fake breakthrough, and then made a clever pass. The ball was given to Zhang Qi on the right.

Grosso was attracted by Pei Wei's breakthrough just now, Zhang Qi is now unguarded, he swiped the ball into the penalty area, and then immediately volleyed from the far corner!

Buffon made another beautiful side throw and threw the ball out!
But the ball rolled to the feet of Zhu Jun who had inserted into the penalty area. Zhu Jun immediately pushed the ball without stopping, hitting the empty right side of the goal.

Just when Zhu Jun was about to cheer, a figure rushed over. It was Zambrotta. He gave up Zhu Jun, who was supposed to be marking, and ran to the goal. Facts have proved that this behavior was very correct, just when the ball was about to fly into the goal When it was time, his foot also arrived and kicked the ball far away.

"The Chinese team made two very threatening shots in a row! Italy's defense is very tenacious, and they prevented the Chinese team from taking the lead twice!" The local commentator in Germany shouted loudly. Of course, he hoped that the Chinese team could eliminate Italy. Out of the semi-finals, because the opponent of the host German team in the semi-finals is the winner of this game.

Judging from the current scene, it is undoubtedly the Chinese team that has the upper hand, but what Italy is most afraid of is being beaten by the opponent. Their defensive counterattack is famous all over the world.

Sun Chenghai dribbled the ball forward for an assist, but Perotta made a beautiful tackle and intercepted the ball. Italy immediately launched a counterattack. Fortunately, Hu Yong quickly returned to the defense and destroyed the ball out of the bottom line.

Totti took the corner kick. He observed the situation in the penalty area, but instead of hoisting the ball directly into the penalty area, he passed the ball short to Grosso who ran up to meet him, a tactical corner kick.

Grosso stopped the ball at his feet, Totti ran up, then kicked the ball, cross!

At the same time, the Italian players in the penalty area immediately began to move. Cannavaro rushed to the front point, but under the interference of Wang Xiaomin behind him, he failed to reach it. The ball flew over his head and flew into the penalty area middle road.

Tony suddenly started, snatching Li Min, who was about to go around to defend, and leaned over to the top!
Li Min's outstretched foot failed to touch the ball, and Wu Qi, who was struggling to throw it, also failed to touch the ball. The ball rushed into the goal quickly, 2:1!Italy once again surpassed the score through a beautiful tactical corner kick!
Tony rushed to the sidelines excitedly, this is the European Golden Boot's first goal in the World Cup!
Wu Qi got up from the ground helplessly. The shot just now was too close. Although he had already made a save, he still couldn't prevent the ball from entering the net.

It's really infuriating. At the same close distance, Buffon saved Zhan Feng's header, but he failed to save Tony's header. It seems that the outside world must think that he is worse than Buffon...

In all fairness, the Chinese team did not make any defensive mistakes in the conceded goal just now, but Italy's offense this time is really perfect.

Pei Wei ran back silently, picked up the ball from the goal, ran all the way forward, and put the ball on the penalty spot.

He didn't say anything, but at this moment, this action was more powerful than any words.

Don't worry if you concede the ball, we will get it back in no time.

"Keep attacking, we have no choice." Seeing Pei Wei's actions, Sun Chenghai, the captain, said loudly.

Menotti made the first substitution of the game. Dong Yuzhuo came on and replaced Shaoyi. The Chinese team's lineup returned to 4-4-2.

Lippi also made a substitution, he replaced Camoranesi with Odo, the Lazio captain is stronger than the Argentine on defense.

The Chinese team continued to attack, and there were still 10 minutes before the end of the game, and any possibility could arise.

Zhang Qi sent a cross with an excellent arc from the right, Zhanfeng used his body to resist Nesta, and then suddenly exerted force from his waist and abdomen, knocked Nesta a little bit away, and shook his head to attack the goal!
Buffon's hand almost missed, but Zhanfeng's header hit the crossbar heavily!

"The Italian team escaped again! The luck of the Chinese team is really bad!" The German commentator cried out in pain: "God bless the Italian team today!"

Lippi has already asked Barzagli on the bench to warm up. It seems that Nesta is almost at his limit. The several confrontations with Zhanfeng just now failed to gain the upper hand. At this time, a healthy Balzali Li should be more useful than Nesta.

"I don't believe in God!" Pei Wei said loudly to his teammates: "Even if Buffon is really God today, I will knock him down!"

Totti broke through from the left with the ball, and suddenly swayed Sun Chenghai's defense. He broke into the penalty area and was about to shoot!

Hu Yong rushed over from behind, a great tackle left the ball under his feet, and Totti, who couldn't hold his feet, tripped on his legs and flew out.

"The tackle from behind! Is it a foul?" Wang Jianxiang said worriedly.

Totti turned from the ground and yelled at the referee, but Larionda ignored his complaint, and he waved his hand to signal the game to continue.

Hu Yong lay on the ground and passed the ball to Pei Wei's feet, Pei Wei immediately dribbled forward with the ball.

The Italian players who were preparing to argue around the referee just now panicked. Now there are only three defenders in the backcourt. It would not be fun to be counterattacked!They immediately chased back.

Perotta, who was on the side of Pei Wei, shoveled over, trying to delay the Chinese team's attack time by fouling, but Pei Wei increased his speed by another gear during the run, and Perotta's foot only shoveled into a piece of air.

Facing the second Pirlo who came up, Pei Wei's left shoulder sank, and then quickly moved the ball to the right. Pirlo, who was confused by Pei Wei's fake action, only saw Pei Wei's body when he wanted to turn his weight around again. back view.

After getting rid of Pirlo, Pei Wei, who had passed two people in a row, had already crossed the middle circle. In front of him were three Italian defenders, and behind him were four yelling pursuers. Looking from the stands, that guy , That scene was quite spectacular.

"Fabio (referring to left back Fabio Grosso, not captain Cannavaro), go up and mark him, Alessandro, prepare to defend!"

Cannavaro loudly commanded the two defenders in front of him, boy, do you want to break through alone?Don't underestimate the Italian defense line!

The three defenders who can be said to be the best in the world immediately formed a well-defined defensive system, followed by Buffon, the world's number one goalkeeper, while Pei Wei was alone, without any support from his teammates. In front of him, Grosso, who was the first to pounce, was already approaching him.

Facing this defender who is about to become his teammate, Pei Wei immediately flashed the information Menotti gave him.

As a full-back, Grosso's biggest problem is his slow speed. If this is the case, don't blame me for bullying you with speed!
Pei Wei poked the ball suddenly while running, and the ball rolled over Grosso's step, and then Pei Wei immediately went around Grosso when he turned around, the third one!
"Three people passed in a row! I have a hunch that a wonderful and classic goal is about to be born!" The German commentator shouted excitedly. Before he knew it, he had already regarded the Chinese team as his home team.

Nesta, who had been on the sidelines for a long time, rushed forward immediately, and he wanted to destroy the ball the moment it left Pei Wei's feet!

But when he was about to start, a sudden sharp pain from his waist slowed his speed down a bit. Because of this momentary slowness, Pei Wei got the ball one step ahead of time, stepped on it and pulled it. , a beautiful Massey turn, leaving Nesta behind, the fourth!

"Oh my god, it's the fourth one! Does he want to repeat the scene in 86?" The commentator of the Italian TV station exclaimed, seeing that the world's best defense line that he was proud of was broken through one after another. The narrator's mood is really complicated.

Pei Wei, who had played four people in a row, had already used his speed to the extreme. Facing the last defender, Cannavaro, he used the simplest method, suddenly changing direction and accelerating!
First, the left shoulder suddenly sank while running, and then when Cannavaro adjusted his center of gravity, he quickly swung the ball to the right, and his body turned to the right!
Cannavaro was taken aback. He didn't expect Pei Wei to make such a quick movement after a long-distance raid. It was because of his quick response that he immediately adjusted his center of gravity, and then reached out to pull Pei Wei.

boy!Even if it is a foul, you can't let a person like you break through our defense line!
Although it is a glorious thing to achieve a classic, it is another thing to be a supporting role in a classic. As the captain of the Italian national team, Cannavaro does not want to let himself become a supporting role like Batezi.

In the Four Nations Invitational Tournament in 97, Roberto Carlos of the Brazilian team scored a free kick that can be called the most unprecedented in football history. I believe that friends who are familiar with football will definitely remember this classic, but as a supporting role French goalkeeper Barthezi, it is estimated that his heart will bleed every time he sees this goal.

Cannavaro thought so in his heart, but the hand he stretched out didn't pull anything. Instead, he lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground in embarrassment!

"Fifth! Pei Wei got rid of all the pursuers by himself! He has broken into the penalty area and is facing the best goalkeeper in the world, Buffon. Can he continue to create miracles?" Wang Jianxiang was almost irritated. He opened his mouth and said a long series of words quickly like a machine gun.

Seeing that Pei Wei entered the penalty area, Buffon immediately abandoned the goal and attacked. Just now Pei Wei lost some balance in order to get rid of Cannavaro's last kick. This is Buffon's chance to get the ball in advance.

Before the center of gravity had been adjusted, Pei Wei swung his left foot and was ready to shoot!

Buffon rushed over like a tiger, his tall body stopped in front of Pei Wei, his hands were ready to catch the ball under Pei Wei's feet!
Pei Wei's foot slid over the ball, stopped in front of Buffon's hand, and then immediately retracted, taking advantage of the opportunity to knock the football from behind to the right, and turned around quickly at the same time!Immediately afterwards, his right foot flicked the football that had already reached the right side, avoiding Buffon's hand that was stretched out in his last effort.

Buffon's hand touched Pei Wei's left foot, Pei Wei staggered, but he immediately regained his balance and swept his right foot hard on the ball!
The ball quickly rolled towards the goal, and rolled into the goal before the feet of Cannavaro who returned to the goal!

"The goal was scored! The Chinese team evened the score tenaciously again! Pei Wei scored twice! A wonderful long-distance attack! After passing six people including the goalkeeper in a row, the ball was scored into the empty goal! This is a horse Radonna-style goal!"
