Chapter 633 : The Saudi team made a big move

Li Zihan became more and more excited, and the Saudi team naturally paid more and more attention to his defense. The final result remained the same. Li Zihan alone disturbed the Saudi team's defense.

Huang Jianxiang joked: "Perhaps after the game, the Saudi team may appeal and require Li Zihan to undergo a urine test."

Hao Haidong also echoed: "Although the Chinese team leads [-]-[-], they still can't be careless. The Saudi team hasn't started to 'serious' yet."

When the game came to the No. 40 minute, the Saudi team started to make big moves, and they are now impatient.

After Li Zihan took the ball, he frequently used physical contact to force the opponent to make mistakes.

Such an action made the Chinese fans a little dissatisfied, so the stands were full of boos.

But such boos did not make the other party restrain at all, on the contrary, their actions became bigger and bigger.

In the No.403 minute of the game, Li Zihan responded to the pass from the captain Zheng Zhi, trying to rush past the opponent's full-back and go behind the opponent to catch the ball.But without the ball, he was directly pulled to the ground by the opponent's full-back.The boos of the audience grew louder, but the referee did not make a penalty. The Saudi team cleared the football out of the sideline after pulling Li Zihan down, so the referee only gave the Chinese team a throw-in.

No. 405 minutes, only 1 minute of stoppage time before the end of the first half, Li Zihan bypassed the opponent's winger who wanted to pull him.Received Zhang Linpeng's pass from behind the opponent, and then rushed to the opponent's backcourt with the ball at high speed.

But at this time, the opponent's lower back directly stabbed in diagonally, and directly knocked down Li Zihan who was dribbling the ball.

In order to protect himself, Li Zihan rolled several somersaults on the ground to relieve the impact of landing.Then he sat on the ground and spread his hands to the referee, expressing his helplessness.

But the referee still didn't say anything, no foul was given to the opponent, not to mention a yellow card, not even a verbal warning.

The referee looked at his watch, and after realizing that the end of the game was only 20 seconds away, he blew the whistle directly to end the first half.

This angered the fans of the Chinese team.

"Black Whistle!! Absolute Black Whistle!!!"

"This referee must have received money, absolutely!!!"

"The Black Whistle of West Asia!!!".
The players of the Chinese team were also irritated, and they all came up and surrounded the referee to ask for an explanation.

"Just now the opponent was obviously a foul, why didn't they give a warning card?"

"How many times has the other party made such destructive moves? You haven't done anything yet?"

Seeing that something was wrong, Li Zihan and captain Zheng Zhi rushed forward to pull away their teammates.Li Zihan naturally knew that if he left his teammates alone, there would be an accident in this game.As the captain, Zheng Zhi walked off the field with the referee, and communicated with the referee while walking.

The head coach Perrin also ran to protest in front of the fourth official.

"I think the Chinese team needs to be more careful in the second half of the game. Of course, their opponent is definitely not the Saudi team." Huang Jianxiang said sarcastically.

"This is expected. Whenever we play against teams from West Asia, we have always been so passive." Hao Haidong said.

Huang Jianxiang and Hao Haidong were guests on the CCTV Sports Channel, and they had some scruples about speaking on such occasions.But netizens and fans on the Internet don't have so many scruples:
"This is a typical black whistle!!"

"It used to be said that the referee was to blame for the Chinese team's loss, but now even if the Chinese team wins, the referee is to be blamed."

"It's too dark, isn't it, some people are really shameless?"

"Such a head referee is really weird. Is this an international referee? Are you sure he didn't pass the test through the back door as a gift?"

"Upstairs, the watch looks like this. They bought it for real money. It's nine yuan and nine with free shipping."

"Facing the 12-man squad of the Saudi team, even if the Chinese team leads by two goals, it will be difficult to play in the second half."

"Okay, the Saudi team finally zoomed in!!"

During the intermission, Perrin did not make any adjustments to the tactics, but let his players control their temper.No matter what happens in the second half, you must not be impulsive, and you can take advantage of the opportunity to show the referee a red and yellow card.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides to fight again, and the lineups of both sides have not been adjusted for the time being.

In the first half, the Saudi team kicked off first, so in the second half it was the turn of the Chinese team to kick off first.

As soon as the football came out, the Chinese team started to attack.This time there was no temptation, and he rushed directly to the opponent's core area.

The Saudi team naturally set up many obstacles, but still failed to intercept the trident of Li Zihan, Wu Lei and Wang Shangyuan.

When Li Zihan was only three yards away from the penalty area line, he changed direction and accelerated to pass the opponent's midfielder.Naturally, the Saudi team's defensive midfielder couldn't make the opponent happy. He turned across and blocked Li Zihan.

But Li Zihan immediately changed direction again and walked around him.The Saudi team's defensive midfielder turned pale with fright, turned around hastily, and then stretched out his feet to sweep the football under Li Zihan's feet.

In the end, the football didn't catch it, but Li Zihan was knocked down.

"Foul!!! This is definitely a foul!!!" Former professional player Hao Haidong made a quick decision.

"If this is not a foul, I will swallow the microphone!" Huang Jianxiang played a big one.

The Saudi team who brought down Li Zihan hurriedly raised his arm, indicating that he touched the football first, which was not considered a foul.

Little did they know that such an action completely angered the Chinese fans at the scene. More than 3 Chinese fans who came to watch the game almost rushed onto the field.

At this time, the big screen at the scene happened to be playing back in slow motion. Through the slow motion playback, it was clear that the opponent brought Li Zihan down from behind, and it was he who swept Li Zihan's ankle, not the football.

Don't be afraid of opponents like gods, but opponents like pigs!The referee on duty cursed in his heart.

How can I help you under the watchful eyes of everyone?

So the referee blew the whistle "decisively" and "decisively", and then gave the fouled midfielder a yellow card, and then gave the Chinese team a free kick in the frontcourt.

"Yellow card!! It's almost the same. If such a dangerous behind-the-back foul is not shown a yellow card, then we should go home and not play with them."

This yellow card also comforted the emotions of the Chinese fans. After all, the referee hasn't been hacked yet.
The players of the Saudi team can only prepare to line up the wall, and the goalkeeper Walid is constantly adjusting his wall.

The central defenders of the Chinese team began to fight for the top, while Wang Shangyuan and Wu Lei were responsible for hitting the wall, and captain Zheng Zhi was responsible for interfering with the goalkeeper.

The head coach of the Saudi team is interim head coach Cosmin. Their head coach Lopez Carlo was fired in early December last year because he led the Saudi team to a defeat in the Gulf Cup.It can be said that Saudi Arabia changed coaches just before the battle. At that time, it was less than a month before the start of the Asian Cup.

Cosmin is the interim coach, and he who wants to become a full-time player naturally wants to make some achievements in this Asian Cup.As for the competitors in the group stage, he naturally did a lot of homework.

But I didn't expect that the first [-] minutes or so of the Chinese team was normal, and then everything started to explode.

Cosmin saw Li Zihan who was posing with a football in front of the human wall and suddenly thought of something. He immediately rushed out of his coaching area, came to the sideline of the stadium and wanted to shout loudly.

But it was too late, Li Zihan's free kick had already been taken.

The football went over the jumping wall and headed straight for the Saudi goal.Goalkeeper Walid jumped up and stretched out his arms.

In the end, he still failed to hold the football, and the football flew into the goal behind him, rubbing his fingers.

"The ball is scored again!!!"

"Great job, three to zero!!! The Chinese team has secured the victory!!"

Only five or ten minutes into the game, the Chinese team had already led 10-[-], which undoubtedly made the Chinese fans want to die.

But obviously, the Saudi team's ultimate move has not been completely exhausted.

The referee blew his whistle, but he didn't point to the position of the center circle, but to the position where Li Zihan took the free kick.

"What's the situation with the horse?"

"I!!" Huang Jianxiang almost wanted to swear "I'm stupid", but he held back in the end.

"The referee signaled that Li Zihan's goal was invalid and took a free kick again. What happened?"

This is a question that everyone wants to understand. The fans at the scene were furious again. They greeted all the [-] generations of direct female relatives of the referee.

The players of the Chinese team also expressed their confusion and surrounded the head coach to ask for an explanation.

"The explanation given by the referee is that Li Zihan kicked off the ball without waiting for him to blow the whistle, so this ball is not counted, and China's free kick has to be retaken."

"This is a blind spot. The referee can decide whether to blow the whistle when taking a free kick according to the situation, but generally speaking, if the referee wants to blow the whistle, he will signal the player who took the free kick in advance and say he will listen to his whistle. If the referee does not give special instructions, it is generally possible to take a free kick directly."

"This is obviously a penalty that is biased towards the Saudi team. This time the goal is not counted and it has completely reminded the Saudi team. Therefore, it will be troublesome for Li Zihan to shoot directly again, because the opponent will definitely be prepared."

Li Zihan and Zheng Zhi rushed up to pull their teammates away again, and they were worried that their teammates would give the referee some power.

After 2 minutes of farce, the game finally resumed.

The Saudi team continued to line up the wall, while Li Zihan continued to put his football down.

It's just that Li Zihan was much quieter this time, and his mentality was not affected by the previous referee's tricks on him. He placed the football very carefully and very slowly.
