Grass roots glory

Chapter 861 From three-game losing streak to three-game winning streak
When the ball hit the goal, the atmosphere in the stadium was instantly ignited, and all the audience could see were dazzling red one after another.

For the first time, after the Chinese team scored a goal, Lippi walked to the sidelines with his fists raised high. He didn't even care about Madaloni chasing after him and wanted to hug and share the joy with him. He walked directly to the sidelines and straightened his fists with a smile.

He was waiting for Zhou Tiancheng, and when Zhou Tiancheng came to the sidelines, the 66-year-old man and the 25-year-old boy bumped fists lightly like buddies.

"Nice job, Zhou. That's what I want to see."

Zhou Tiancheng smiled, followed suit and asked, "Old man, are you a little more satisfied now?"

Lippi and Madaloni looked at each other, especially in Madaloni's eyes. Even if Pirlo or Inzaghi scored goals in those years, they would not ask Lippi that!

"It's only one goal. If you can help the team seal the victory, I think it's about the same."

Lippi narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, he is in a good mood now, and he will not care about Zhou Tiancheng asking him such a question, but put forward higher requirements.

Zhou Tiancheng smiled and snapped his fingers: "It's exactly what I want, let's see you."

Because of this goal, He Wei also let out a long sigh of relief, and felt relaxed. Seeing Zhou Tiancheng turn around and volley this kick, he knew that the victory was guaranteed again.As soon as he relaxed his mind, he stood up from the commentary seat all of a sudden, and made a lot of witty remarks.

"Strong goal, beautiful, beautiful! Although the goal that broke the deadlock did not come early, it was not too late. It was just in time. Mario Yepes was firmly suppressed by Zhou Tiancheng. Although he had enough experience, But on the stage of the World Cup, only strength is the strength, and experience is at most only added value, but the key is that even if he is ten years younger, Mario Yepes at his peak has just stood behind Zhou Tiancheng, and there is probably nothing he can do. This kick definitely reflects Zhou Tiancheng's strength. He turned around and shot in one go. His control of body balance and footwork are impeccable... Forgive me for not being able to find a more suitable description, but this is not important, we think All we want is this result, 1:0, the Chinese team is leading, and the problem is thrown to Pekerman, which will test his determination."

Lippi continued to make adjustments in the midfield at this time.Wu Xi was replaced and Zhao Xuri was replaced in midfield.At the same time, Gao Lin was replaced on the front line, and Lippi's consideration was very clear, adding a fulcrum.

Zhou Tiancheng could naturally understand such a signal.The position began to recover, actively controlling the rhythm in the backcourt, and teasing the opponent out first.

Zhou Tiancheng has a good grasp of the mentality of the opponent. The frequent crosses make full use of the width of the field. Colombia's defense can only press higher and higher. Not getting the ball is the most deadly threat to them.

At least they still want to fight for the first place in the group in terms of attitude. Not only the fans like to see such a scene, but the Chinese team naturally welcomes it with both hands.

There are ways to deal with them.

Zhou Tiancheng shrunk between the two central defenders, J Ma, who had tossed Zheng Zhi and Feng Xiaoting to the brim in the first half, confronted Zhou Tiancheng directly this time.

Haven't got the ball yet, just the simplest physical contact.Zhou Tiancheng taught him a good lesson.

J Ma is very confident in his physical fitness. Originally, he wanted to rely on Zhou Tiancheng directly by virtue of his physical fitness, but Zhou Tiancheng just pushed his waist and abdomen lightly from behind, and J Ma suddenly lost his center of gravity and moved forward. I fell headfirst.

The Chinese team almost took advantage of this counterattack opportunity to make another victory, but it was a pity that the moment Gao Lin ferried the header to Jiang Hao in the penalty area was caught by Mondragon first.

But this is the thickness of the Chinese team's current defense on the field. Lippi replaced Zhao Xuri, and Zhou Tiancheng recovered again. The defensive thickness of the Chinese team's midfield has been unprecedentedly strengthened.

It is Marcel Leff who sees this issue clearly: "This kind of layered defense, and Zhou stands firmly in front of the defense, these young people in Colombia are very impactful, but their opponents are as young as them and Experienced Chinese team."

In the second half of the game, Pekerman wanted to give it a go and continuously added offensive players on the front line.Villarreal striker Baca and striker Adrian Ramos, who played in the Bundesliga in the first half, were replaced.

Originally, both teams were able to qualify together. This should be a very "harmonious" game, but both teams obviously have ideas about the first place in the group.

It can be said that the two head coaches are only fighting for honor, they want to pursue a three-game winning streak, and they pay enough attention to the World Cup, or they are not sure about the way of Costa Rica, the dark horse in Group D, and they want to touch England and Uruguay just to be cautious Anyway, in the last half hour of the game, with this goal gap, the scene suddenly became hot.

The scene of the two sides sliding back and forth in the midfield has become a normal scene-the midfielder Guarin and Quintero have just brought Zhou Tiancheng down with the ball, and Zheng Zhi immediately followed, the same way Retaliated against the opponent.Even his movements were more exaggerated during the fight, and he almost pinched Quintero's neck.

Naturally, the referee came up and issued a yellow card for each player. The Chinese fans laughed unkindly in front of the screen.

"Fortunately, Quintero hasn't brought the ball over at his feet. Otherwise, judging by his posture, he might become the second generation of the sad Cisse. Do you know what Zheng Zhihua is?"

……

After 75 minutes of the game, Lippi began to stand on the sidelines and rush to the court to signal the Chinese team to attack and then press up.

In this situation, only a coach like Lippi would issue such an order.

After seeing the Chinese team's offensive suppressing the opponent, He Wei began to follow Lippi's thinking and praised the Chinese team's tactics: "Mr. Lippi once again demonstrated what a godfather-level command is. At times like this, it’s always safest to put the opponent’s energy in your own half, and offense is the best defense, and now this sentence is better than defense to win the championship.”

Xu Yang also smiled knowingly: "It's time to celebrate, let's let go of the carnival tonight. From the three-game losing streak in the World Cup to the three-game winning streak and qualifying, the 12-year cycle of reincarnation is the test of every Chinese. Fans, fans who never thought of giving up during the lows, can now enjoy the rewards of suffering."

In stoppage time, the fans have already pushed the atmosphere to the top. When Kupels finished 5 minutes of stoppage time, when he pointed his hands to the center circle, every corner of the stands occupied by Chinese fans was filled with red crowds. Then, everyone jumped up and cheered for this moment of victory.

After all the dust settled, the fans celebrated to their heart's content in the rest of the time. It didn't take He Wei and Xu Yang to do too much to brag about the Chinese team. All the famous mouthpieces of the first-class media in Europe were happy to do this.
