God of Greenery

In the stands, when Jiang Xiaolin grabbed Shao Jiayi's wide cross and headed the ball into Uzbekistan's goal, tens of thousands of home fans in the stands fell silent.

Thousands of away fans from Huaguo erupted in a stronger momentum than tens of thousands of home fans, celebrating Jiang Xiaolin's goal and the Huaguo team's lead.

On the court, Jiang Xiaolin, who scored the goal, also ran along the baseline to celebrate for a long time, and then hugged and high-fived with his teammates who rushed up to celebrate together, celebrating that they had reversed the score.

In the case of conceding a goal first, the Huaguo team finally overtook the score with Jiang Xiaolin scoring twice in the 31st minute.

After the celebration, the Hua Guo players returned to their own half, and the Uzbekistan players kicked the ball.

After the game resumed, the head coach of Uzbekistan kept pointing to the Hua Guo team's goal from the sidelines and waved to the players, signaling everyone to attack aggressively.

Because Uzbekistan has no way out.

They were already at the bottom of the group, and if they lost this game, they would hardly have any chance of competing for a World Cup spot.

Not to mention the direct qualifying places for the top two in the group, I'm afraid they won't even be able to win the No.3 play-off spot.

Therefore, the anxious Uzbekistan has adopted a more aggressive style of play from the coach to the players.

Except for the two central defenders sticking to the back line, the two full backs, midfielders, etc., are all involved in the offense.

There is no way, now that the score is already behind, even if it is defended, it is meaningless, it is better to invest manpower in the offense and take a chance.

In fact, Uzbekistan's luck in this game is really good.

In the continuous attack, finally, in the 39th minute, a scene happened in the penalty area of ​​the Hua Guo team that made Uzbekistan players and fans very excited.

When the two sides were scrambling in the penalty area, the Uzbek player kicked a pass from the edge of the penalty area and hit the Hua Guo team defender Li Weifeng. The referee awarded a penalty kick.

Although Li Weifeng repeatedly argued that he was playing the ball and not deliberately defending with his hands, the referee did not let go, and resolutely punished Li Weifeng's handball and gave Uzbekistan a penalty.

Uzbekistan did not waste this hard-fought chance, and finally their striker Ansukik scored the ball firmly into the bottom left corner of the goal.

Goalkeeper Song Zhenyu even jumped in the wrong direction, so naturally he couldn't catch the ball.

The ball firmly stuck to the turf and rushed into the net. The tens of thousands of home fans in the stands immediately gave excited applause and cheers, and the Uzbek players on the field also celebrated excitedly.

Uzbekistan tied the score with a lucky penalty and the score became 2-2.

Of course, even so, a tie score was not enough for Uzbekistan.

They still need to attack, they need to score goals, they need to win.

Therefore, after the game restarted, Uzbekistan continued to press hard and attack continuously, and did not slack off because of the score equalization.

Naturally, the Hua Guo team will not completely passively defend.

The so-called defensive counterattack means that there is a counterattack in the defense.

Although the Hua Guo team is currently ranked second in the group, it does not have much advantage over No.3 Japan, and it is still not very safe to qualify for the group.

Therefore, this game is also the goal that the Huaguo team must win.

However, it was the 39th minute when Uzbekistan scored the equalizer and, with a bit of celebration, it was the 40th minute when play resumed.

In the last few minutes, although Uzbekistan played several offenses, it still failed to break into the restricted area of ​​the Chinese team.

Although there was a shot, it didn't even hit the goal frame.

The same is true for the Huaguo team. Although they counterattacked, they didn't make a shot in the end.

After 1 minute of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, and the two sides entered the intermission with a score of 2-2.

During the intermission, head coach Gao Hongbo emphasized the importance of defense in the second half.

In fact, for the Hua Guo team, which is currently ranked second in the group, it is acceptable even if there is only a draw in the end of this game.

The Huaguo team still has room for error.

Relatively speaking, Uzbekistan, which ranks at the bottom of the group with only 1 point, has no choice but to keep attacking.

This allows the Huaguo team to have more tactical options, especially to play defensive counterattacks, which can be played more naturally.

As long as Jiang Xiaolin seizes the opportunity to counterattack, the Huaguo team can score again.

Of course, the premise is to do a good job in defense and not let Uzbekistan score a lead.

Uzbekistan did not stop after taking the lead in the first half, and still chose to continue attacking, but who knows in the second half?

If the opponent takes the lead and adopts a defensive strategy to defend the one-goal lead until the end of the game, then the Hua Guo team will be considered a failure.

Therefore, Gao Hongbo emphasized defense during the halftime break, telling everyone to defend and not let Uzbekistan take the lead.

After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

The Huaguo team naturally continued to play defensive counterattacks with peace of mind, while Uzbekistan had no choice but to continue to attack the Huaguo team as it did in the first half, hoping to get a goal lead as soon as possible.

In this game, Uzbekistan's luck and performance were really good. Not only did they score two goals in the first half to draw with the Hua Guo team, but they were still very aggressive offensively after the start of the second half.

In the 48th minute, Uzbekistan completed the first shot in the second half. As a result, the ball hit the post and bounced back to the penalty area. It was cleared by the players of the Huaguo team, but the players and coaches of the Huaguo team were scared out of their heads. cold sweat.

In the 54th minute, Uzbekistan made another cross from the wing, and the forward Ansukik headed the ball, and the midfielder Capaldis, who was inserted in the back row, made a powerful volley. .

Fortunately, the goalkeeper Song Zhenyu played exceptionally well and made a world-class save, saving Capaldis's volley.

Amidst the loud cheers from the home fans, Uzbekistan's offense was wave after wave, and it seemed that it was going to score at any time.

However, amidst the sound of cheering and cheering by everyone, it was the Hua Guo team who scored the first goal in the second half.

The Hua Guo team's goal this time was not based on luck, but on Jiang Xiaolin's unparalleled strength.

In the 56th minute, Uzbekistan's pass error caused Zheng Zhi to stop.

The moment Zheng Zhi stole the ball, Jiang Xiaolin immediately turned around and rushed towards Uzbekistan's half.

Adhering to Gao Hongbo's technical style of play, Zheng Zhi did not kick the ball to the frontcourt with a big kick, but passed the ball to Shao Jiayi who was inserted in the wing and was in the gap.

Shao Jiayi's skills are still worthy of the trust of Hua Guo's teammates.

Sure enough, after Shao Jiayi got the ball from the wing, he watched Jiang Xiaolin's running position while advancing.

When Jiang Xiaolin was about to cross the back line without the ball, Shao Jiayi made a long-distance pass at a 45-degree angle and sent the ball to the front of the penalty area.

However, this pass seems to be a little bigger.

Although Jiang Xiaolin succeeded in anti-offside, he rushed towards the ball.But the goalkeeper Nestalov also noticed that Shao Jiayi's pass was a little too big, and he immediately and decisively attacked from the small penalty area.

It seemed that Nestalov, who was walking towards each other, should be able to grab the ball before Jiang Xiaolin.

But that's just what the average person thinks.

I saw that the moment Jiang Xiaolin succeeded in anti-offside and saw the route of Shao Jiayi's pass, he judged that the ball was a bit dangerous and might be destroyed by the opponent's goalkeeper.

Therefore, at the moment when the anti-offside was successful, Jiang Xiaolin gritted his teeth and accelerated again, increasing the speed to the extreme.

With a full speed of 20, even if the two central defenders tried their best to return to the defense, they were still thrown farther and farther by Jiang Xiaolin.

Everyone can only put their hopes on the attacking goalkeeper Nestalov.

Nestalov also resolutely rushed out of the penalty area and left his defensive area, just trying to destroy the ball with a tackle before Jiang Xiaolin.

This is at the expense of the advantage that the goalkeeper in the penalty area can use his hands to defend.

But Nestalov knew that if he didn't attack and destroy it, he couldn't do it.

Once Jiang Xiaolin gets the ball, it's useless for him to use his hands in the penalty area.

In the case of going to the meeting alone, the accident of Jiang Xiaolin missing the ball is very small. It is better to attack outside the penalty area and fight for the opportunity to destroy this attack before Jiang Xiaolin.

As a result, he lost the fight.

Even though he had already overestimated Jiang Xiaolin's speed, he still made a mistake in his judgment and lost the bet.

Jiang Xiaolin, who played at the extreme speed, caught the ball before Nestalov, and kicked the ball out from the toes of Nestalov, who was flying to tackle the ball.

Nestalov, who had fallen to the ground, looked desperately at the ball rolling past him, but he couldn't do anything.

Nestalov, who is always on the verge of evil, even planned to lift his foot and trip Jiang Xiaolin.

However, in the end he still did not take action.

Because he was afraid that if he did this, he would be sent off by the referee with a red card. If there is one less player to fight and the main goalkeeper, then Uzbekistan will really be finished.

Therefore, when Jiang Xiaolin, who touched the ball early and poked the ball away, jumped up and passed the goalkeeper Nestalov who fell to the ground and shoveled, but Nestalov did not lift his foot to trip Jiang Xiaolin, allowing Jiang Xiaolin to He passed his body smoothly and continued to chase the ball.

The next thing is simple.

With no one catching up with Jiang Xiaolin, Jiang Xiaolin easily caught up with the ball he poked in the penalty area, and then easily pushed the ball into the net with 20 full-value shooting skills.

Jiang Xiaolin completed a hat-trick and the Huaguo team led Uzbekistan again 3-2.

Whether it was the Huaguo fans or Jiang Xiaolin fans at the scene or in front of the TV, they all cheered loudly for Jiang Xiaolin's performance and for the Huaguo team to gain the lead.

But Uzbekistan still hasn't given up.

It's just one goal behind, and it's not time to give up.

When the Hua Guo team celebrated for almost half a minute and the game restarted, Uzbekistan continued to attack aggressively, seeking opportunities to score and equalize the score.

As mentioned earlier, Uzbekistan, which is playing at home, really scored well today.

10 minutes after Jiang Xiaolin completed his hat-trick, Uzbekistan finally scored with their tireless attack.

This is an upright wing attack.

The winger Ebakimov passed the Hua Guo team's defender with a sudden pedaling on the wing, and then made a pass from the bottom.

Forward Gilnik played a powerful role in this wide cross.

Although the Hua Guo team had Li Weifeng, Wang Xiao, Zheng Zhi and other players defending in the penalty area, it was bad luck. Gilnik took the lead and grabbed the first header from the crowd. And finally scored.

Uzbekistan evened the score again when it was behind, and the score between the two sides became a 3-3 tie.

This time, the Uzbek players and fans celebrated even more wildly.

The twists and turns of this game were too great, and they evened the score again after falling behind.

This kind of tenacity surprised even them themselves and was very inspiring.

As for the Hua Guo team, they felt a little uncomfortable.

Especially Jiang Xiaolin, he didn't expect that Uzbekistan, his opponent, could keep up with his hat-trick.

Gao Hongbo on the sidelines also looked depressed.

In such a high-intensity game situation, some players have begun to have physical problems.

Originally, he was planning to make substitutions, replacing one or two main players to rest and prepare for the next game.

But looking at the current situation, Uzbekistan's performance today is really weird, and Gao Hongbo dare not change anyone.

We can only let everyone play the whole game, try to score another goal and lead again, and keep the lead until the end.

The game continues.

Uzbekistan, which is desperate and morale boosted, will naturally not accept a draw. They still continue to press hard, wanting to make persistent efforts and score again to complete the reversal.

But how can the Chinese team accept it?
A goal was scored by the opponent, and Gao Hongbo's task of making everyone guard the goal had failed during the intermission. How could he allow the opponent to score a second goal?

Therefore, the players of the Hua Guo team in the midfield and backcourt worked very hard, constantly using their numerical advantage to block Uzbekistan's passes and shots.

Even Jiang Xiaolin returned to his own half to participate in the defense, using his full positioning skills to help the defense, constantly destroying Uzbekistan's frontcourt pass and cut cooperation.

Of course, while defending wholeheartedly, the Huaguo team did not forget to counterattack.

After all, the Huaguo team took a big sigh of relief after leading consecutively and being equalized consecutively.

What's more, the Huaguo team is going to qualify, and it's best to win this game.

Although a draw is acceptable, it would undoubtedly be better to win.
