Chapter 305 Winning at home
The reporters are of course most concerned about Zhang Yuan’s feelings in the national team, and of course they also need to look forward to the future, because on the 22nd, the Chinese team will host Lebanon in Hangzhou.

"I feel very good. We played well in the last game. The most important thing is to get three points! I am basically satisfied with my performance, but there are still many things I need to learn and improve! We will try our best in the next game and hope to be able to Get three points."

At present, the national team ranks second with 2 wins, 1 loss and 6 points. Syria ranks first, and Vietnam and Lebanon are in the same group. It can be said that there is no room for loss against Lebanon at home.

Zhang Yuan answered more modestly when facing the reporter, but the officials of the Football Association were quite high-profile, demanding that the national team must fight to the end to get the three points.

On the night before the game, hehe, it was a mobilization meeting as usual, and Zhang Yuan fell asleep listening to it as usual. In his opinion, there is no need for such long-winded mobilization. As a national football player, he will do his best every game , which is the responsibility.

Also before the game, Coach Gao told Zhang Yuan that Zhang Yuan would be arranged to start in this game. He hoped that Zhang Yuan could give full play to his advantages and open a breakthrough for the Chinese team.

"Coach Gao, thank you for your trust. I will definitely work hard in the game!" Zhang Yuan assured the coach.

He is still very happy in his heart. He is very eager to play in the starting lineup. He also very much hopes that he can score goals and help the national team. He has no special opinion on where the national team will go, because he also knows that no matter what In fact, the national team is a weak team, and it is not enough to rely on itself.

Since Zhang Yuan showed up, his friends must come to join him. Most of his friends are not that interested in the national team, like Qian Huan, Gu Lin, etc. Haha, they may have all been "injured" before!
In recent years, it has been even more disappointing, and they don't care much about the national team, but it is naturally different with Zhang Yuan. They will come for nothing but to see Zhang Yuan.

Regardless of his long distance, Gu Lin invited a few former high school classmates to come over to watch the game and cheer for Zhang Yuan.

On November 11, at Hangzhou Huanglong Sports Center, many Chinese fans came to the scene. Of course, the number is not worth mentioning compared with Schalke 22's home court. After all, the state of the national team in the past two years has broken the hearts of many fans. Attention has dropped a lot.

But most of the people who can appear here are hardcore, no matter how bad they are, they have always supported the Chinese team.

Today, Zhang Yuan and Gao Lin partnered in the striker line in the starting lineup. Zhang Yuan played a position similar to a second striker. Coach Gao arranged a 442 parallel position in the formation.

This formation is the most suitable for Zhang Yuan. He was very active after the opening game, and the national team firmly controlled the situation on the field.

Lebanon is also very pragmatic. At the home court of the Chinese team, they were originally weaker than their opponents, and they will no longer take the initiative like they did at home, but will firmly fight back.

Less than 20 minutes into the game, Zhang Yuan sent 3 threatening passes and completed 2 shots. Although he failed to knock on the opponent's door, the players on the Lebanese field were deeply touched. This Nima just couldn't defend ah.

Lebanese No. 5, who pressed Zhang Yuan close to him, was tortured by Zhang Yuan, because Zhang Yuan was too flexible for him, his ability to pass the ball was very strong, and his body was also strong. He never won a single confrontation .

Zhang Yuan himself seems to regard himself as the core. When to surpass others and when to pass the ball depends on his own judgment. When Lebanon is tight, he will attract the defense and then pass the ball.

After playing for a while, he began to actively call his teammates to follow him. He was silent on the field because he was the youngest.

The teammates who played today gave him face, maybe at home, everyone wants to win this game, running is relatively active.

In the 32nd minute, Zhang Yuan and midfielder Gao Jun made a wonderful two-for-one cooperation. Zhang Yuan passed Gao Jun back. The Lebanese goalkeeper calmly pushed from the far corner and gave the Chinese team the first lead, 1:0.

After scoring the goal, Zhang Yuan was very excited. He pointed to Gao Jun who assisted him. The two rushed to the sidelines to celebrate together. His teammates came to congratulate Zhang Yuan one after another.

The fans at the scene sang and danced. Zhang Yuan, who had high hopes, finally lived up to everyone and took the lead for the team.

"The captain is just too hot!" Gu Lin invited Sheringham among his high school classmates. Sheringham is now in college. Playing football is already an amateur activity. Always adored.

"That's oh, just kidding, don't you think he has been in the Bundesliga for several years and scored more than 20 goals last season, do you think he is just for nothing!" Tian Wencai next to him said contemptuously, thinking silently that you understand A ball!
The coach of the Chinese team, Coach Gao, applauded his disciples on the sidelines. He was strong but he couldn’t help it. He took advantage of a slight negligence in the opponent’s defense to seize the opportunity. This is the top striker Zhang Yuan.

Coach Gao re-examined his insistence on building a team, maybe it’s okay to rely on Zhang Yuan to play!

After scoring the goal, the Chinese team still did not relax and continued to maintain the pressure on Lebanon. Their goal was really jittery and crumbling, and they might lose a second goal at any time.

But when all the fans were expecting the next goal, in the 39th minute, Zhang Yuan broke through with the ball and was hit by the opponent's No. 5. Zhang Yuan lost his balance and fell to the ground with a sprained foot.

Zhang Yuan's physique is relatively good. Schalke 04 often suffers from injuries. He has rarely entered the injury list in the past two seasons, and injuries are minor injuries. This is unavoidable.

Zhang Yuan felt a little pain in his ankle. The opponent bumped into him just now, causing him to lose his balance while dribbling the ball. He staggered and sprained himself.

The team doctor of the Chinese team went to the field to check and deal with it, but Zhang Yuan still felt a little pain when he stood up.

Coach Gao showed embarrassment. He didn't expect Zhang Yuan to be injured so soon. The opponent's No. 5 was too abominable. He was probably outraged by Zhang Yuan's teasing, so he made a malicious collision. The referee gave a yellow card. Give the Chinese team a free frontcourt, but the Chinese team lost one of the sharpest knives.

There was no other way, Coach Gao could only make substitution adjustments, replacing Zhang Yuan with a twist, and Zhang Yuan limped back to the bench.

The applause at the scene was mixed with boos, and the applause was naturally given to Zhang Yuan. Although he was unlucky enough to get injured, he scored a goal for China. Also frequently create murderous intent.

"That No. 5 that belongs to my son, I just want to dig a hole and bury him!" Sheringham cursed with a blushing face.

Gu Lin's face was gloomy, but he was very worried about Zhang Yuan's injury. He had communicated with Zhang Yuan a lot, so he knew how terrible the injury was to Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan returned to the bench, and the teammates around him comforted him, and even Coach Gao came back to comfort him.

The team doctor used ice packs to apply cold compresses to Zhang Yuan's ankles, and the specific injury may not be known until he goes to the hospital.

Zhang Yuan didn't think about that for the time being, he was very concerned about whether the Chinese team could finally win a game after he left the field? !
In the first half, China led the opponent 1:0. After the start of the second half, China continued to maintain the advantage of possession, but this was all they had, and the pass-and-control football guided by Coach Gao appeared.

However, it is useless. With the opponent's intensive defense, it is undoubtedly difficult for them to do a small-scale delicate cooperation at the front of the penalty area. When Zhang Yuan is on the court, the biggest role is that he can control the ball and attract the defense. , can pull the opponent's defense line through dribbling, allowing teammates to gain space to receive the ball and complete the cooperation.

But the players on the field don't have the ability of Zhang Yuan. The so-called pass control is really just pass control, and it is difficult to create any substantial threat.

After more than 70 minutes, Lebanon could not sit back and watch the defeat, and began to adjust tactics, move forward in formation, and attack vigorously. This gave the Chinese team a chance, but the forwards were not strong in grasping the opportunity, and they still could not seal the victory.

Coach Gao was very anxious on the sidelines. At this time, he became more determined to focus on Zhang Yuan. Sometimes it is better to be more realistic. This is the case when playing against weak teams, but it is definitely not enough to play against strong teams.

Fortunately, the overall level of Lebanon is not high, and the absence of the top star Antares still has a great impact on them. In the end, no matter how hard they tried, they failed to equalize the score. The Chinese team won the home victory without any risk.
