There is a dream called football

Chapter 260 The Difficult African Eagle

"God, one more."

Huang Jianxiang sighed.

After the opening, Nigeria's fast attack made the Chinese team's defense stretched. Krautchen had expected this kind of strength before the game, but he was still not prepared, or this kind of impact was unprecedented for Asian teams.

0 to 2.
"This game is more difficult for the Chinese team than the German team. After all, the German team has not sent the best young players in the country, but Nigeria has indeed sent the best domestic players."

Krautzen kept applauding.

"Think about our game against Germany, think about the difficult warm-up games we played, think about how we came to Holland."

But to be honest, this year's national youth team has never played such a difficult game before, and I feel a little bit fooled.

Li Qiao didn't say anything, but expressed with actions that he raised his hand to ask for the ball and asked his teammates to pass the ball to him more.

Li Qiao turned around after taking the ball, and bumped into Mikel's body firmly. At this time, Mikel was already in the Premier League, and his body was as strong as a cow. Li Qiao seemed to hit a wall.

"My goodness."

Li Qiao took a long breath to ease the discomfort in his chest, but Mikel reached out his hand to Li Qiao after hitting someone.

"Get up."

Li Qiao stood up.

At the end of the first half, the stadium was very quiet, because the Chinese fans were more on the side, and the Chinese team was already facing the situation of being eliminated.

Players are also frustrated when they go off the field.

In the locker room, Li Qiao stood up suddenly.

"Do you know? A month ago, I was in Istanbul in the same mood as I am now. It was 0-4. We thought we must be out, but then I think everyone saw what happened."

But the effect of this kind of encouragement is minimal, because everyone knows that the Chinese team is not Liverpool, and Krautchen is not Benitez.

Clausen asked everyone to try to score one in the second half, and then... work harder.

*****
The biggest feature of the youth team is that they do not know how to control the rhythm. Nigeria still attacked wildly in the second half, but at this time the Chinese team has adapted to this pressure, and did not fear too much, but used their own rhythm to defend.

The Chinese team can also launch sporadic counterattacks, but the Nigerian defenders are very fast. The speed of Li Qiao and Lei Wen has no advantage in front of Nigeria.

Krautchen was at his wit's end, and Li Qiao's personal ability seemed to have lost its magic in this kind of competition, or what the Chinese team needed was a little bit of luck.

Just when the Chinese team couldn't start the situation, Nigeria's defense made a mistake in a return pass, and the ball reached Zhu Ting's feet. Maybe the Nigerian players didn't care about Zhu Ting at all. After all, his performance in this game was really too weak.

And this pass gave Zhu Ting a chance to face the goalkeeper. At this time, Zhu Ting's muscles began to tremble.

He was too nervous, this was his first chance to shoot in this game, but at this moment he remembered Li Qiao's resolute eyes, so he pushed and shot to the far corner of the goal.

When the ball flew into the goal, Zhu Ting was still in a dazed state. Li Qiao was the first to run over. He patted Zhu Ting on the head, "What are you doing standing there, you scored a goal."

"Haha, I scored a goal."

1 to 2.
The Chinese team pulled one back, which made the Nigerian head coach very angry. Originally, the Chinese team had nothing to do with this goal, but now it is only one goal away, so it is hard to say.

Sure enough, a ball made the players of the Chinese team seem to come alive, and the enthusiasm of the group stage came back again.

The Chinese team stepped up their offense. At this time, the Nigerian head coach also judged the situation. He waved his hand and asked his players to retreat and focus on defense.

Nigeria began to put up iron barrels, and Huang Jianxiang knew that this was not good news for the Chinese team.

"There is not much time left for the Chinese team."

At the last moment, the Chinese team's offense was much stronger, and Kraushen simply pushed Feng Xiaoting to the front to act as a single arrow.

Feng Xiaoting's header was good, and Li Qiao and the others passed the ball into the penalty area. At the last moment, Li Qiao yelled at Tan Wangsong and Zhao Xuri: "Go ahead, what are you doing?"

Both of them pressed on.

However, every pass was in vain. The Nigerian central defender handled the high-altitude ball very well. Seeing that the game was about to enter stoppage time, Li Qiao took the ball in front of the penalty area. When everyone was guessing how Li Qiao would pass the ball, Li Qiao glanced at the goal and kicked decisively.

shoot yourself,

Huang Jianxiang had already stood up, and Li Qiao chose the most direct and possibly the most difficult way to shoot.

But the moment the ball went into the net, the audience was boiling, 2 to 2.
Li Qiao knelt down to celebrate. The ball was so exciting, even more exciting than when he was in Liverpool. This is the passion of the national team game.

The whole team rushed over, and everyone stacked arhats to celebrate. They were so excited, they equalized, and the Chinese team was not out yet.

On the other side, the Nigerian players looked at each other in blank dismay. They were already preparing for the post-match celebration, but they did not expect to be equalized.

The head coach realized that there was something wrong with the team, and this kind of impreciseness might cause the team to be eliminated.

A few minutes later, the game ended and the two sides had to enter overtime.

You can't go back to the locker room in overtime, so the two sides rested on the side of the court. At this time, the Nigerian coach severely criticized his players.

"It was our own carelessness that ruined the game. We could have easily won the game 2-0."

The players all lowered their heads and kept silent, which is indeed careless. This kind of mentality is very delicate.

Originally, I looked down on the Chinese team, and after 2-0, I looked down upon it, but now it has become a mixed feeling.

"Fortunately, we still have extra time to make up for our mistakes. Think about [-] million Nigerians watching you play in their homeland."

"Think about your family."

Clausen on the Chinese team didn't say anything, because there is no need to say anything, the performance of the players has already proved everything.

"I'm proud of you. Although I'm from Germany, I suddenly feel today that you are playing German football."

"Hahaha."

"Thank you for allowing me to have such a great and amazing journey in the youth team."

"thanks!!"

Clausen deliberately went to pat Li Qiao, this is the Chinese team's thigh.

"Overtime depends on you, how is your body?"

"If you can't do it, you have to do it."

"Hehe, I believe you are fine."

At this time, Li Qiao's legs were already very uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do, even if he had to take anesthesia.
