God of Greenery

Chapter 311 The Last Struggle

In the commentary booth, when Jiang Xiaolin lobbed the ball over Romero's head, crossed a parabola and fell into the Argentine goal, the TV commentator immediately screamed with all his strength:

"The ball is in!"

"The ball is in!"

"The ball is in, it's in, it's in..."

"The Hua Guo team scored a goal!"

"Jiang Xiaolin scored a goal!"

"Jiang Xiaolin scored the second goal, helping the Hua Guo Olympic team lead the Argentine Olympic team again with a score of 2-1!"

"After being bombarded by the powerful Argentine Olympic team for more than 80 minutes, the Huaguo team still did not lose heart, still fighting, and scored the Huaguo team with a quick counterattack by Jiang Xiaolin in the 81st minute With the second goal, the lead was regained."

"It's a great goal, a historic goal!"

"Including stoppage time, now there are only a little over 90 minutes before the end of the 10-minute regular game time."

"As long as they can hold on to these 10 minutes, the Hua Guo team will really create a miracle and beat Argentina to win the Olympic championship."

"If a miracle is really born, this will be the first World Series champion in the history of Chinese football."

The narrator's screaming with all his strength didn't actually seem special, because there were more fans screaming and screaming in the stands around the scene.

The cheers and screams erupting from more than 9 Hua Guo fans in the entire stadium were even heard through the commentator's microphone to the audience in front of the TV, which was clearly audible.

A teenage boy holds a small gun in one hand and a glass of Coke in the other.

But when Jiang Xiaolin's lob shot flew into the Argentine goal, the little boy immediately threw away the Coke, waved his gun and jumped up on the seat, and even stood on the seat, screaming, cheering, and venting madly. With the excitement in his heart.

An old fan in his 50s, with his face covered in gunpowder and a headscarf that reads "Hua Guo will win", was waving a flagpole with a big gun hanging on it.

When the ball hit the net, the excited old fans burst into tears, rushed to the corridor holding guns, waving guns and ran back and forth in the corridor, causing countless fans to applaud and cheer, and finally stopped by the security guards before returning to their seats superior.

There were also countless fans at the scene, who also fell into wild celebration when Jiang Xiaolin scored a goal to help the Hua Guo team regain the lead.

Not only because the fans vented their emotions after being bombarded by Argentina for most of the game, but also because everyone really saw the possibility of the Hua Guo Olympic team winning the championship in an upset.

As the commentator said, there are only 10 minutes left in the game.

As long as the Huaguo team keeps these 10 minutes, the Huaguo team can really create miracles.

No wonder everyone is so excited.

Of course, not only the scene, but also the square outside the stadium, the whole of Beiping, the whole of China, and even the places with Chinese and overseas Chinese all over the world fell into madness.

On the court, Jiang Xiaolin, who scored a goal, was no exception.

He also knew the meaning of the ball.

Looking at his teammates in the backcourt being bombarded by Argentina in the midfield, he is also very anxious!I'm afraid that Argentina will score ahead of the Chinese team if they are not careful.

Fortunately, the Argentine didn't bring his own shooting boots. He was unlucky. His teammates also maintained a very good state and defensive cooperation. They struggled to support and were not overtaken by Argentina. They waited until this counterattack scored Opportunity.

Now, as long as the Huaguo team, which has already scored ahead of its opponent, keeps the score until the end of the game, then the Huaguo team will really create a miracle and win the Olympic championship.

This will be a new history of football in China. Jiang Xiaolin and the entire Olympic team will become heroes of the country!

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaolin, who scored the goal, naturally couldn't restrain the excitement in his heart, and rushed to the sideline like crazy, came to a passionate slide rail to celebrate, then stood up, clenched his fists and shouted, venting the excitement in his heart Affection.

Afterwards, Jiang Xiaolin was dragged down by the rushing teammates, and celebrated under him.

Regardless of the players on the field or the coaches, substitutes, and staff on the sidelines, as well as fans, spectators, and reporters, all Chinese people were immersed in excited celebrations.

On the other hand, the Argentine players on the other side were devastated one by one, looking at the sky speechlessly, or looking down at the ground, and their spirits were listless.

Especially the defensive midfielder Gago who lost the ball due to a pass error, his legs went limp, he knelt on the ground, covered his face with his hands and began to cry.

He has to take full responsibility for this conceded goal.

If Argentina loses the championship in the end, he can already imagine the domestic media and fans criticizing him.

……

The Chinese team's celebration lasted for more than half a minute before being stopped by the referee under the Argentine's protest.

Although many people seemed a little lost, but captain Riquelme could not.

Now Argentina is behind the score, but it is not the end of the world, they are only one goal behind.

And time, there are still 10 minutes left, Argentina still has a chance!
Therefore, after seeing that the captain of Huaguo was suspected of procrastinating for a long time, Riquelme stood up and protested to the referee, and then the referee performed his duties, suspended the celebration of the Huaguo team, and asked everyone to return quickly. Own half is ready to start the game.

Just as Jiang Xiaolin crossed the halfway line, Argentina kicked off.

If it is said that Argentina's offensive rhythm was a bit slow after playing 70 minutes of the game with excessive physical exertion, then now that the game has restarted, Argentina's offensive rhythm has suddenly increased to the fastest.

They have no patience to pass the ball slowly and slowly open up the gap for the Hua Guo team.

They need a more direct attack, whether it's a pass or a breakthrough, they just need to go forward, forward, forward!
In the 83rd minute, Riquelme got rid of the middle and picked a pass to the penalty area. Di Maria cut in from the side and inserted into the penalty area to catch the ball and shoot a volley and flew out of the crossbar.

In the 85th minute, Messi passed two people from the side and then cut inside to attract the attention of the Huaguo team's defense. Then Messi passed the ball in an inverted triangle to the top of the penalty area. He wanted to make up for it, but he used too much force, and the ball flew high off the crossbar.

In the 86th minute, full-back Zavaletta suddenly put in an assist, formed a two-over-one with Messi on the wing, and then made a pass from the bottom. Aguero nodded and missed the post.

In the 87th minute, Di Maria broke through the front of the penalty area and caused a foul by Zheng Zhi. Although he was not shown a yellow card, he gave Argentina a threatening free kick.

This free-kick position has excellent distance and is very threatening.

Riquelme's free kick was indeed within the range of the goal frame. If the goalkeeper Qiu Shengjiong hadn't predicted that Riquelme would hit a close corner and move ahead of time, the goal might have been scored.

The subsequent corner kick was grabbed by the Hua Guo team. Li Weifeng headed the ball out of the penalty area, but the Hua Guo team failed to control the second point and was grabbed by the Argentine midfielder Javier Mascherano.

Mascherano didn't stop the ball to adjust. He volleyed and tried to hit a long shot. Unfortunately, he didn't control the angle well and the ball missed the post slightly.

As the world's top giants born in South America and only beat Brazil 3-0 in the semi-finals, the Argentine's technical strength is too terrifying. Even if the overall state of the Huaguo team is increased to 100% by Jiang Xiaolin's cheating, they still can't stand it. He looked embarrassed.

In just a few minutes, Argentina completed five shots. Although only Riquelme's free kick hit the goal frame, it was terrifying enough.

Regardless of the players on the field or the coaches off the field, the fans in the stands, or the audience in front of the TV, the Hua Guo team was extremely nervous watching. They were afraid that Argentina would score a goal in the next second to tie the score.

The Huaguo players on the field were also exhausted physically and mentally, and had to use some off-the-ball tricks to delay time.

It is a routine operation for the goalkeeper to delay the goal kick. Although the Argentine players have been protesting before, the referee has always ignored it.

Perhaps, this is the advantage given to the hosts.

However, this time after Mascherano's long-range volley from outside the penalty area missed the post, Qiu Shengjiong's delay in serving the goal kick was too much.

He walked slowly behind the goal, got the ball from the ball boy, walked slowly to the corner of the small penalty area, put the ball down, stepped back two steps, and made the appearance of a goal kick.

As a result, he seemed to feel uneasy again, and walked up slowly to pick up the ball again, changed to another position a few centimeters to the side, slowly put it down, and then slowly backed away, preparing to take the goal kick seriously.

This repositioning of the goal kick got him into trouble.

Not to mention the Argentine, the referee was so angry that he couldn't laugh or cry.

This blatant way of delaying time is obviously not advocated or even allowed on the football field.

So, when Qiu Shengjiong placed the ball in position for the second time and slowly backed away, the referee ran over and raised a yellow card to Qiu Shengjiong, signaling him to delay the game time, a yellow card warning.

Tens of thousands of Huaguo fans in the stands erupted in dissatisfied boos and curses. The curses of "black whistle" and "stupid *" were heard endlessly, but they had no effect on the referee.

Qiu Shengjiong, who received a yellow card, was also very dissatisfied, and even wanted to argue with the referee, but the referee blocked him back with one sentence: "If you keep talking nonsense and delaying time, I will directly send you off with a red card!"

This deterrence was too great, Qiu Shengjiong could only shut up immediately, and obediently went back to serve the goal kick.

The goal kick was kicked out, although Zheng Zhi grabbed the first point, but under the interference of the opposing player, he failed to give the ball to Jiang Xiaolin, and the second point of the ball was grabbed by the Argentine.

As a result, it became an Argentine attack.

But as the game time dwindled, although the Hua Guo players were exhausted physically and mentally, and Qiu Shengjiong even received a yellow card for delaying time, everyone was more and more motivated psychologically.

Because as time dwindles, the chances of the Hua Guo team winning the championship will increase.

As long as you persist for a few more minutes, the Hua Guo team will win the first World Series championship in history.

Therefore, despite the embarrassment, the players of the Huaguo team were united and worked hard to block the Argentine's attack with the overall defense.

On the other hand, the Argentine's offensive has always been fierce, but he has been gaining momentum without scoring, and it has been like this since the beginning of the game.

As the game time dwindled, everyone became more and more anxious, and it was almost difficult to see everyone playing passes and cooperating again.

Regardless of whether it is Messi, Di Maria or Aguero, as long as he gets the ball, he is almost fighting alone. He wants to score goals with his own strength and become the hero who saves the team.

Even the captain Riquelme fell into the trap of fighting alone, and didn't have much patience to cooperate with his teammates to complete the attack.

In just 3 minutes after Qiu Shengjiong was shown a yellow card, Argentina completed three horrible shots.

This shooting frequency can even catch up with the number of shots taken by the Hua Guo team in half a game.

However, none of these three shots were threatening, they were all shots from outside the penalty area, and there was not even a threatening shot within the goal frame, which was a complete waste of time.

It was under such circumstances that the game time came to the 90th minute, and the fourth official raised the sign for 4 minutes of stoppage time.

Immediately, violent noise and boos broke out in the stands, most of them booing that the stoppage time was too long.

Obviously, these people are Hua Guo fans.

For Hua Guo fans, they wished that there would not be a second of stoppage time, and it would be best to end the game immediately.

Therefore, no matter whether it is 4 minutes or 3 minutes, there must be people booing.However, the 4-minute stoppage time is indeed 3 minute longer than the 1-minute stoppage time in general games, so it's no wonder everyone is dissatisfied and booed.

In contrast, another group of thousands of Argentine fans will feel that this time is too little.

However, instead of booing the referee, they seized the time to cheer for the team, hoping that Riquelme, Messi, Aguero and others seized the last time to score a goal to equalize the score and drag the game into the relegation zone. Then there is still hope for Argentina.

The Argentine players on the field naturally know this truth.

The game time has entered stoppage time, but they are still behind.

If they can't score an equalizer as soon as possible, they will become the laughing stock of the entire world football in 4 minutes: defeated by an Asian team and lose the Olympic gold medal.

Therefore, the Argentine players became more and more anxious, and more and more wanted to break through the goal to equalize the score.

As a result, Di Maria, who dribbled the ball from the side, seemed to have forgotten that he still had teammates, and Aguero and Riquelme were supporting him in the middle. Yuan Weiwei's joint defense.

However, after constant attempts, Di Maria took the ball out of bounds in a hurry and gave the Hua Guo team a throw-in while the possession of the ball changed hands.

A throw-in is dead-ball time when a substitution can be made.

Obviously, the Hua Guo team had already prepared, and had already played the sign of a substitution when entering stoppage time.

It is impossible for the referee to turn a blind eye.

Therefore, the consequence of Di Maria taking the ball out of the sideline was not only that the ball changed hands, but also gave the Huaguo team an excuse to delay time by making substitutions.
