Chapter 1069
The Chinese team's quick counterattack was simple and efficient. The football reached the Terminator Zhang Linpeng's feet after two or three kicks. This choice of the Chinese team was unexpected by the entire Uruguayan defense line.

Zhang Linpeng, who scored the goal, was extremely excited. As a full-back, he rarely had the opportunity to directly take the ball to face the goalkeeper. He was more about cooperating with the team, enriching the team's offense, or getting assists.

So Zhang Linpeng seldom rushed to the corner flag area to celebrate by sliding and kneeling, and behind him... was a group of equally excited Chinese players.

Similarly, the Chinese fans in the stands were also very excited. They really did not expect that the team they supported would equalize the score so quickly, and the way of scoring was the most visually impactful quick counterattack. The speed of the wind and electric motor made each of them feel their own enthusiasm.

The head coach Guardiola standing on the sidelines seemed relatively calm, as if the goal was a matter of course, he simply clenched his fists, then hugged and celebrated with his assistants, everything was under control!
This scene was captured keenly by the on-site broadcaster. The on-site commentator Huang Jianxiang changed his voice and said with a smile: "Guardiola is Guardiola. When the team loses the ball, it is not in a hurry. When the team scores a goal, it is quite calm. It is not surprised, and it is quite handsome. I believe that under his leadership, the most powerful Chinese team in history will go to a peak that no latecomers will ever be able to reach..."

No one thought that Huang Jianxiang's random words would become reality for a long time in the future.

Of course, this is just an afterthought.

Closer to home, the Chinese team equalized the score, and the Uruguayan players seemed quite frustrated, especially Godin, who thought he knew Aiello very well. He really didn’t expect that Aiello would choose to assist when he got an excellent opportunity. This is unscientific...

In addition, Aiello's club teammate Cavani also had a bad look on his face. His goal once made him see the hope that the national team could defeat the Chinese team and advance to the Confederations Cup final.

The Chinese fans who occupied half of the field were very happy, because the team they supported equalized the score shortly after conceding the goal, as if the final was just around the corner.

The game restarted, Uruguay's offense was much less efficient than before, and the Chinese team's defensive strength kept up, so the game quickly entered the Chinese team's rhythm control.

The cheers erupting from the Chinese fans in the stands continued to rise. Many fans were shirtless and shouted loudly, cheering for the Chinese players on the field. They hoped that the team could overtake the score in the shortest possible time.

Soon, the Chinese players on the field fulfilled their wishes.

The Chinese team continued to attack, causing all Uruguayan players to huddle in their own half for defense, blocking the breakthrough space needed by the Chinese team's offensive players as much as possible.

In fact, what Uruguay rehearsed before the game was offensive tactics, and there was no rehearsal of overall defensive tactics at all.

The reason why they have such extreme changes is entirely due to the continuous and high-pressure attack of the Chinese team, which made the Uruguayan players have to defend half of the court.

※※※

With the Chinese team's continuous possession of the ball, the Uruguayan coach standing on the sidelines was a little upset, but he knew that it was useless to vent his dissatisfaction, because the score always needs players to change through hard work.

But now, the Chinese players on the field are working very hard, and they are very active without the ball.

Ai Luo entered Uruguay's defensive right flank through a pass and cut cooperation with Zhang Xizhe. The defensive midfielder Gonzalez was attracted by Zhang Xizhe's forward drive, which directly caused the full back Pereira to defend Ai Luo alone. This was full of great pressure for him, an unknown pawn.

Immediately, cold sweat began to break out from his forehead, and his feet seemed to be filled with lead.

However, at this moment, Ai Luo's upper body made a feint to break through to the left, and then flicked the ball to the right with the outer instep of his right foot, starting on the spot.

It was too late when Pereira realized that Ai Luo had broken through to the right rib. He was seized by Ai Luo and got stuck behind him. Lugano, the captain of the right center back, had to step forward to defend.

But Ai Luo kicked the ball to Gao Lin with the outer instep of his right foot at the moment he started, and then continued to push forward.

Lugano has rich experience in the game, but he is old and his body is not conscious.

Godin could tell at a glance that Ai Luo was going to seek a breakthrough with Gao Lin, so he quickly took two steps forward and stuck to Gao Lin.

In the end, his speed was still half a beat slower, because Gao Lin's awareness of playing the ball was too strong. While Godin was moving forward, Gao Lin also turned around and ran.

So when both of them are moving, the distance between them has not narrowed. Gao Lin is like a wall, kicking the football passed by Ai Luo back.

"Bump into the wall!" Sky TV commentator Andy Gray exclaimed suddenly, his voice raised an octave: "--opportunity!!"

The veteran Lugano fell to the ground in an instant and wanted to stop the ball under his feet, but because of his age and height, he could only watch Gao Lin's football to Ai Luo was just right.

Ai Luo plugs in at high speed, stops the ball forward with the outer instep of his right foot, adjusts it slightly, and swings his right foot to hit the goal directly.

Muslera looked at the football rolling towards the far corner of the goal against the turf. Because the distance was too close, he could no longer use his body to save the football. He chose to block it with his feet.

But... still half a beat slower, the football has a forward acceleration on the watered field.

※※※

Although the Chinese fans in the stands had been prepared for a long time, when they saw the football really fly into the goal, they burst into cheers and swept the stadium in a very short time. The entire Mineiro Arena belonged to their voices.

This atmosphere was transmitted to every Chinese i fan in China watching the Confederations Cup semi-finals through satellite signals, so they subconsciously raised their arms and shouted.

The Chinese team overtook the score before the end of the first half, which made every fan who supported the Chinese team very excited, because this goal represented that the strength of the Chinese team was even better than that of Uruguay.

Ai Luo, who helped the national team overtake the score, was not as excited as Zhang Linpeng. Scoring a goal may be very difficult for many players, but for Ai Luo, it is as normal as drinking water and eating. In addition, Uruguay is not an equal opponent. It is a normal result to overtake the score.

From leading to falling behind, it is undoubtedly a huge blow to the Uruguayan players on the field, but it is a huge motivation for Cavani and Suarez, the forwards, because they don't want to lose the game!
