World Cup of Great Powers

Chapter 157 Advance to the Final Four
"Team China, come on!"

"Enter one, and then another!"

"Come on, come on!"

In the stands, the fans of the Chinese youth team were almost screaming out of smoke.

This side has not yet recovered from the throat, and the China Youth Team hoisted the ball into the penalty area again.

Looking at the indiscriminate bombardment of the Chinese youth team on the field, many fans have already shouted their voices hoarse.

Looking at Zeng Zheng, who kept giving orders loudly from the sidelines, Zhu Guanghu was filled with emotion.

Not to mention fans.

Even he has never seen such a fierce attack from Guozihao!
Over the years, how could the Guozihao team attack at this time?
Since the 80s, Chinese football has been going downhill.

It's just that the abilities of other Asian teams compared horizontally are not very good, so the Chinese team has always maintained an external advantage.

Since entering the 90s, the gap between Asian teams has been revealed.

Due to the lack of scientific and systematic training and a professional attitude towards football, the physical fitness of domestic players can only last for 60 minutes.

Regardless of the nutritional conditions over the years, this phenomenon is common among players, which is also caused by the times.

But this is a disadvantage after all!
And is a malpractice that can be remedied and remedied.

As long as the training method is scientific, supplemented by sufficient nutrition and a serious professional attitude.

Whether it is a young player or a middle-aged player, it is not a problem to run for 90 minutes or 120 minutes.

Forget about the players of the previous generation, starting from the 77th batch of players, Zeng Zheng's first focus was on the physical fitness of the players.

But there are also some differences between physical fitness and physical fitness.

Due to the lack of scientific training, the previous football teams often practiced long-distance running with a start of [-] meters.

think about it.

Before practicing their professional skills, the team members were tortured to death by the [-]-meter long-distance race.

A training camp lasts at least half a month.

After running 15 meters, the Iron Man would have to run to waste, let alone the players.

Compared with long-distance running, Zeng Zheng pays more attention to players with little difference in performance in short- and long-distance switch-back runs.

你体能充沛时能30米跑4秒5我不嫌弃你慢，三10分钟内跑了无数个30米后，30米测试依旧能跑到4秒6、7，那就算你体能好。

In other words.

Zeng Zheng's public training for the turn-back runs is actually the core of the training for the China Youth Team!
It's just that the media and fans are ignorant!
Under Zeng Zheng's "teaching", whether it is the National Youth or the National Olympics, the results of the 30-meter switchback run are all ahead of the country.

This is also a signal sent by Zeng Zheng.

You may not have solid skills, or you may have no other physical qualities.

But in terms of physical fitness, you must pass the test.

Only when the physical fitness is up to the standard can one enter the national team, otherwise everything is out of the question!
It is precisely this selection standard that supports Zeng Zheng's tactics on the court today.

The Chinese players generally run out of strength after running for 60 minutes, and the same is true for other teams.

60-70 minutes is the critical point of most teams' physical fitness.

Zeng Zheng chose to launch a fierce attack during this period of time, not to show the effect of his players' physical training, but also to take advantage of this weak period to catch his opponent by surprise!
From the point of view of the formation, Zeng Zheng replaced all midfielders, abruptly turning 442 into 361.

But in fact, with the increase of midfielders, the positions of Shao Jiayi and Li Yan both moved forward accordingly.

If you don't look at Li Yi, who specializes in protecting the ball and acting as a bridgehead when attacking, the formation of the China Youth Team is more inclined to 343.

This is a standard onslaught formation!

It is also reasonable that the Paraguayans did not react.

In the 64th minute, the China Youth Team intercepted the opponent's big foot in the midfield to make a clearance, and quickly launched a long pass to move to the open space on the left.

As soon as Shao Jia got the ball, he tapped the ball lightly and made a pass directly.

Facing the three attackers in the penalty area, the Paraguayan goalkeeper hit the ball with a single punch in embarrassment.

However, as soon as the ball flew out of the penalty area, it landed on Zhao Junzhe's chest.

After stopping the ball in the chest, the young Liaozu teenager made a light dunk, and quickly pushed the ball straight to the right.

Chen Licheng, who responded from the bottom, caught up with the ball and also made a cross.

Facing the scuffle in the restricted area, the Paraguayan had to push the ball out of the restricted area.

"Come out, come out quickly!"

Following Zeng Zheng's roar, Li Yi, Li Yan, Zheng Zhi, and Xu Yunlong were more active than anyone else in getting out of the penalty area.

Seeing the opponent's four attackers running back from the offside position, the Paraguayan could only grit his teeth and take a step forward.

But the ball fell at the feet of the China Youth Team again.

Zhao Jun gave the ball to Lu Bofei, and the latter saw the opportunity and sent a kick to the ground.

Facing the incoming ball, the four attackers of the China Youth Team continued to turn back.

But just turned his head, Paraguayan defender Maldonado fell to the ground desperately and scooped the ball out.

Ever since, the four middle-aged and young players changed their running direction again.

"mine!"

Chen Licheng ran back to the penalty area, blocked the position with his body, and intercepted the ball again.

Seeing his teammates control the ball again, with a bang, more than four players rushed into the Paraguayan penalty area, disrupting the opponent's defense.

"Come on, come on!"

"Go one, go one, go one!"

Facing the situation where the Chinese youth team kept controlling the ball and making shots in the frontcourt, the fans in the stands also went all out.

As long as you are still attacking, our cheering will continue, let's see who lasts longer!

This time, Chen Licheng did not pass the ball into the penalty area hastily, but distributed it again to Shao Jiayi who was on the left side.

If there is a gap on the right side, hit the right side, and if there is a gap on the left side, hit the left side.

With Zeng Zheng's reminder and Zhao Junzhe's passing support in the middle, the China Youth Team can always pass the ball to the opponent's space in the first time.

Ignoring the pulling of the opponent beside him, Shao Jiayi rushed to the ball's landing point and greeted it with the arch of his foot, then took a step forward and circled in front of the ball.

Stopping and protecting the ball is just a basic operation for Shao Jiayi, and turning around and changing directions is also easy to grasp.

The passive Paraguayan players can only run back and forth behind Shao Jia's ass.

If there is a slight gap, there is a risk of being broken or crossed by the opponent.

But no matter how he put on a posture of guarding against death, he was still a step slower.

Seeing Shao Jia kicking together, the Paraguayan defender stretched out his legs desperately, but the kick was empty.

This time, Li Yi looked at the gap and quickly moved forward. While squeezing into the penalty area from the front point, he received Shao Jiayi's oblique plug.

In this position, the Paraguayan players dare not step down easily.

As long as Li Yi fell to the ground, it would be a big meal.

Li Yi didn't protect the ball this time, but put the ball in front of him, making fake moves back and forth to attract the opponent's attention.

As soon as the Paraguayan player stepped forward, he quickly passed the ball to the center.

boom!
A muffled sound.

Zheng Zhi, who stepped in from the middle, pushed the ball towards the ball, and pocketed the ball into the Paraguay gate with his left foot.

"The Chinese team shoots!"

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!"

The on-site commentator roared again.

"In the 68th minute, in a series of attacks, the Chinese team used a cross from the side to score another goal!"

"The Paraguayan goalkeeper, despite his reaction, was unable to prevent the ball from entering the net."

"This is a team cooperation from the Chinese team!"

"A strong Chinese team."

"The Paraguayans were beaten helplessly in front of them!"

Zheng Zhi, who has scoring experience, has become much "mature and stable" after scoring this time.

He jumped over the billboard, then ran across the plastic track, rushed under the stands, and shouted at the fans.

The fans also responded to Zheng Zhi with the most enthusiastic applause and screams, and even many young female fans in the crowd shouted Zheng Zhi's name while blowing kisses to him.

Seeing this, Zhu Guanghu on the sidelines laughed and scolded: "This brat is gone!"

"I didn't even know to ask the coach to announce the good news after scoring a goal!"

At this time, other team members followed behind Zheng Zhi, ran across the track, and waved to the fans in the stands.

"This is the third goal of the Chinese team in this game, and the score is currently 3 to 1!"

"The Chinese team led by two goals."

The live commentator shouted, "This is definitely a wonderful game."

"The Chinese team showed its strong offensive ability in front of the whole world."

"For the entire 5 minutes, the ball was at the feet of the Chinese team and they launched several consecutive attacks."

"With such high pressure, the Paraguayans still couldn't defend."

"They conceded the ball again."

"In just 7 minutes, the Chinese team won two cities in a row."

"This goal may directly seal the victory!"

"Of course, the Paraguayans still have time."

"As long as they organize the center and reconnect the connection between the backcourt and the frontcourt players, it is possible to tie the score and even overtake."

"Now it's up to the Paraguayan coach how to arrange it."

"So far, there is only one substitution left for Paraguay."

"I expect this last substitution card to perform a miracle!"

Under the reminder of Zeng Zheng, the players hurried back to their own half with their arms in their arms after celebrating.

The attack time set by Zeng Zheng has not yet passed.

During this period of time, the China Youth Team should attack as much as possible and score more goals!

Soon, under the active running and clear goals of the players, the ball returned to the China Youth Team again.

With this strength, Mou continued to attack until 74 minutes.

Only then did Zeng Zheng nod his head, and with a big wave of his hand, he announced that the team members would retreat.

In the next time, as long as they defend steadily, promotion is basically a certainty.

On the Paraguay side, after the head coach played the last substitution card, there were only two words left - attack.

In order to increase the offensive strength, the Paraguayans even did not hesitate to press the back line out.

Anyway, losing two and losing three is a loss, so it's better to fight with the China Youth Team.

But the problem is that after more than ten minutes of onslaught by the Chinese youth team, Paraguay's overall defense line has already been smashed to pieces and defeated.

It took a long time just to organize the players to regain confidence and regroup, let alone create decent offense and shots.

In the 79th minute, the Paraguayan finally found a chance to send the ball to the penalty area of ​​the China Youth Team.

Paraguayan striker Santa Cruz suddenly inserted along the right, even after two people broke into the youth team's restricted area.

Faced with the double-team defense of the Chinese youth team, Santa Cruz neither chose to pass nor shoot directly, but stopped the ball at his feet and made a fake move.

The sudden change caught Wang Xiao off guard, and he accidentally kicked Santa Cruz into the penalty area.

The referee immediately blew the whistle in his mouth and gave the opponent a yellow dot feast.

Santa Cruz personally took the penalty and the ball hit the lower left corner of the goal, leaving Liu Yunfei far behind.

Seeing Santa Cruz running back with the ball, Zeng Zheng slammed his mouth.

"Paraguay responded very quickly!"

According to Zeng Zheng's plan, even if the opponent wanted to organize a decent attack after more than 10 minutes of onslaught, it would have to be 80 minutes later.

It doesn't matter even if you lose a ball during this period, just continue to strengthen your defense.

But I didn't expect the Paraguayans to react so quickly and pulled back a goal before 80 minutes.

This time point is extremely unfavorable for the Chinese youth team.

Especially Zeng Zheng will face the dilemma of whether to defend with all his strength or to counterattack.

"The whole belongs to the whole, and the importance of stars is also great!"

Zeng Zheng sighed, waved his hand, and gave new instructions to the team members.

After the re-kick-off, the Paraguayan, who got back a goal, was about to make persistent efforts. When he took advantage of the last 10 minutes to make another victory, he found that the Chinese youth team that had just recovered had once again spread out and occupied the midfield.

"what's the situation?"

"The Chinese team is still going to attack???"

Paraguay was also surprised to see the Chinese youth team open their posture.

"The coach of the Chinese team responded so quickly!"

Zeng Zheng is not stupid.

It's the last 10 minutes. It's okay if you stick to it, but what if you don't?
If he didn't hold it, he would be the passive one.

When the time comes to overtime, he will have to reorganize the team, adjust the mentality of the players, and start attacking like Paraguay did just now.

If the players enter the state a little later, time will pass by.

And with the current rule of golden ball overtime, if the opponent scores first, he will lose completely!
So Zeng Zheng made a decisive decision and played a defensive counterattack at the last moment.

For players, it's just that the running distance is increased and the running time is lengthened.

Gritting your teeth, you can still hold on.

What's more, the best defense is offense.

If there is another goal in the last 10 minutes, it will be a complete victory!
After playing the last substitution card to stabilize the defense, Zeng Zheng changed the formation from 361 to 541, and when he found an opportunity, he used the speed of the strikers to attack Paraguay's half.

At this point in the game, the coaches of both sides have exhausted their cards.

What is fighting is the ability and fighting spirit of the players on the field, as well as the occasional luck.

Fortunately, Zheng Zhi and Xu Yunlong are the two backbones in the backcourt. The defense line of the China Youth Team has not been found by the opponents.

Paraguay gave it a go, pressed with all their strength, and made the last fight.

In the 92nd minute of the game, facing Paraguay's last attack, Liu Yunfei actually dropped his hand.

Fortunately, Zheng Zhi in the penalty area responded in a timely manner. He ran to the ball at the first time, fell to the ground and shoveled the ball out of the penalty area.

Li Yi, who retreated to the outside of the penalty area, did not hesitate, turned around with a big foot, and kicked the ball forward.

Seeing the ball flying away, the referee immediately blew the whistle to end the game without hesitation.

"Long live, long live, Chinese team!!!" The fans shouted in unison.

"Final four, this is the top four of the World Youth Championship!"

Zhu Guanghu grinned and stretched out four fingers on the sidelines.

It wasn't until the team members rushed to him that they didn't react.

Final four, this is a historic final four! ! !
