Starting from entering Kawazu

Chapter 144 Asian Cup

In the second game against Indonesia, the Chinese team really changed their tactics.

One of the two midfielders was not on, and Zheng Zhi was on.

Zheng Zhi played very well, with one goal and three assists, helping the team beat the Indonesian team 8:0.

This score also made the opponent regret participating in the Asian Cup.

High center forward Xiao Zhi scored six goals with overhead kicks, completely treating the opponent as a training team.

Jia Yi also went up to play for 10 minutes in the end, which was considered to have completed the first show of the national team and made the fans happy for a while.

Originally, the fans thought that Jia Yi was going up to mess around, but when they saw Jia Yi's passing and control skills, their eyes lit up.

They also finally understood that Jia Yi didn't come in through the back door.

In the third game, the Chinese team played against their bitter host Qatar.

In 97, Qatar once gave the Chinese team black 3 minutes, which made the Chinese team dream of breaking France.

In fact, after winning that game and then scoring the penalty kick in the away game against Saudi Arabia, the Chinese team has a high probability of reaching the World Cup.

It's a pity that the two big losses to Iran caused the Chinese team to lose their sense of proportion, and were eliminated by Qatar at home.

After the ball was kicked, the Chinese team rushed quickly.

However, the goal did not come for a long time. On the forward line, the players were still too impatient, always thinking about smashing the Qatar team with a hammer.

In fact, you have to be patient to play against the West Asian team. The opponent's skills are not weak. Once the game goes well, you are really difficult to deal with.

Jia Yi immediately went to the sidelines and yelled at the players, telling them to pass the ball more, don't worry.

This time it was also immediate, and soon, the Chinese team scored a goal through a patient pass.

Wang Song picks the ball from the side, then knocks across, Zheng Zhi goes straight, Dong Fangzhuo catches the ball and knocks across, Xiao Zhi scores an empty goal, 1:0!

After the goal was scored, the situation immediately developed in a favorable direction for the Chinese team.

The final score was 2:0, the Chinese team won three consecutive victories and successfully reached the top 8.

Three games, three sets of lineups, which also makes the opponent a little confused about the cards of the Chinese team.

After entering the knockout round, the Chinese team played against Iraq with a lineup of three attacking midfielders, Wang Song, Cheng Tao and Shao Jiayi, and their offensive power was fully displayed.

In 15 minutes, Shao Jiayi's long-range shot with his left foot was saved, and Dong Fangzhuo made a clever supplementary shot to break the deadlock.

In the 25th minute, Shao Jiayi's free kick directly scored the goal, rewriting the score to 2:0.
Shao Jiayi's condition is very good. In this time and space, his development is still good. In fact, Jia Yiyi didn't use the system at all, but he still played very well.

As long as he doesn't get injured frequently, there should still be hope of becoming a top player.

After leading by two goals, the opponent became more and more impatient, and then the Chinese team scored two goals in succession. In the end, the Chinese team defeated the Iraqi team 4:0 and entered the top four.

Surprisingly, there were also some Chinese fans wearing Iraqi team jerseys, cheering for them.

This is obviously the arrangement of the organizing committee, and it is also a comfort to the Iraqis who have been troubled by the war.

After entering the semi-finals, the Chinese team met Iraq's neighbor, the Iranian team, who was also the biggest sufferer in the 97 World Preliminaries.

The Iranian team has always been a strong team in Asia, and they eliminated the South Korean team in the quarter-finals. This time, the goal is also the championship.

In the many confrontations between the two teams in the past, the Iranian team did not suffer from physical confrontation, and their skills were better than the Chinese team, so it was difficult for the Chinese team to beat the Iranian team.

The opponent's European style of play is not suitable for the Chinese team.

But this time, the goal of the Chinese team is to win the championship, so it must beat the Iranian team.

This time Alihan finally exhausted all the overseas players to form the strongest lineup.

In the 19th minute of the game, Zhou Yougen made a straight pass in the middle, and Dong Fangzhuo quickly cut in with a blast shot. After the ball was blocked, he hit Yao Xia again.

Yao Xia took a curved ball and the ball flew to the far end. Xiao Zhi swooped down and scored the ball, 1:0!

This goal was completely neutral, and Xiao Zhi's header was also accurately grasped.

After conceding the ball, the Iranian team's offense was also very threatening. They used Ali Daei, Bagheri, Madavikia and others to cooperate very well.

The Chinese team's defense was also very tight.

However, Li Datou and Feng Xiaoting's partner is still good.

In this time and space, both of them have learned a lot overseas, and their physical confrontation is also very good.

Coupled with Manchester United goalkeeper Yang Zhi's continuous attack, the Iranian team seemed to have a great offensive power, but it could not be converted into a goal in the end.

Before halftime, the Chinese team counterattacked Cheng Tao's continuous Marseille maneuvers past the opponent's player and entered the penalty area. He volleyed and rewritten the score to 2:0!

This time Cheng Tao's personal ability has been fully demonstrated. The core of Arsenal's midfield is not for nothing.

His dribbling is very fast and very skilled, as long as the opponent can't keep up with one step, then don't try to break his ball.

In the second half, the Chinese team continued to adhere to the anti-reverse strategy.

The Iranian team could only press out, which brought many opportunities to Dong Fangzhuo in front.

Especially the cooperation between him and Yao Xia, both of them are extremely fast, and their work is not bad.

This put a lot of pressure on the Iranian team's defense, and it can even be said to be a bit embarrassed.

This time, the Iranian players felt that the Chinese team was different from before.

This Chinese team is very good at the game, which makes them tired.

In the 69th minute, after Yao Xia broke through from the side, he cut in and sent a through pass. Dong Fangzhuo caught the ball and dunked it, then raised his foot and shot, 3:0!

The fans at the scene were very excited. The Chinese team played Iran like this, which was unimaginable before.

But today, they saw a strong Chinese team.

Alihan also clenched his fists excitedly off the court to celebrate that he had encountered a good era and the strongest Chinese team in history.

In 80 minutes, Zheng Zhi intercepted the ball and made a long pass, Dong Fangzhuo drove straight in, unloaded the ball and passed the opponent's goalkeeper, and scored the ball into the empty goal, 4:0!

This time, the Chinese team repaid four goals to the Iranian team.

The entire work body was about to explode, and the atmosphere was very enthusiastic.

The Iranian players were dumbfounded, and all of them stopped thinking.

In the end, the Chinese team defeated the Iranian team 4:0 and reached the final of the Asian Cup.

The opponent in the final is still the Japanese stupid team, which has not changed.

However, the Chinese team's current call for winning the championship has surpassed that of the Japanese stupid team.

Five consecutive victories and just a 4:0 victory over the Iranian team. In contrast, the Japanese team's road to promotion is indeed not so convincing.

Three days later, the finals began.

The Chinese team didn't need to be mobilized as soon as they came up, and they didn't need to be mobilized at all when they played against Japan's stupid team. For well-known reasons, the Chinese team will do their best every time they play them.

However, Dong Fangzhuo was injured in training, and veteran Yang Cheng took his place in this game.

The Japanese stupid team has only gradually become stronger in recent years. In the 80s and 90s, the Japanese stupid team was often molested by the Chinese team.

However, between the 98 World Cup and the 02 World Cup, the Japanese team led the Chinese team.

Now, the strength of the two sides is probably about the same again, and even the Chinese team is slightly stronger.

After the game started, Yang Cheng took the lead in scoring for the Chinese team.

In 22 minutes, Yang Cheng caught the ball and used his speed to throw the opponent away. Facing the opponent's defender, he passed it to the middle.

The fans at the scene shouted crazily in an instant.

Although Yang Cheng has entered the trough of his career and returned to China this season to join the Taishan team, he still broke the goal of the Japanese stupid team.

He was also very happy and celebrated wildly with his teammates.

Ali Han also rushed over to celebrate with Jia Yi, but Jia Yi was calm. Now that the Chinese team has so many players who have studied abroad, and he has improved the strength of some of them, it is a bit unreasonable not to be able to play against the Japanese stupid team.

In the 29th minute, Yang Cheng made another breakthrough from the side and then made a cross. Xiao Zhi nodded the ball, and the ball hit the opponent's defender Koji Nakata and flew into the goal from the sideline, 2:0!

This Koji Nakata scored the goal of the Chinese team with his hand in a game in another time and space. The so-called professional ethics of the Japanese stupid team is actually extremely hypocritical, especially in big competitions. They often sell their bottom line in order to win.

But in this time and space, Koji Nakata had bad retribution, and he scored the ball into his own goal.

At this time, the referee will definitely not consider the goal invalid.

However, in the next 35 minutes, Xiao Zhi raised his foot too high when the Chinese team was grabbing the ball in the frontcourt, and directly headshot Nakata Koji, causing the opponent to fall to the ground bleeding.

The referee also showed Xiao Zhi a red card.

This change also suddenly made the game tense.

The Japanese stupid team, which played one more player, took advantage of the small skills at their feet and quickly controlled the situation.

However, the defense of the Chinese team was still very tight. Alihan then replaced Li Tie and Yang Cheng. He did not need a striker in front and defended with all his strength to keep the advantage of the two goals.

The Chinese team looked a little passive, but after watching the Manchester City game, everyone knew that the opponent was actually very hard to attack.

At halftime, the score is 2:0.
After coming down, what Jia Yi told the players the most was to be calm and move aggressively. In view of the small skills of Japanese stupid players, Jia Yi told everyone not to step easily, so as to avoid being fooled by the opponent and causing some fouls.

Form multi-point protection and echo it, which can break the Japanese stupid team's pass and control offensive characteristics.

Alihan also asked for the same thing, but he hoped that Yao Xia would be more resolute in counterattacking.

Zheng Zhi in the middle should also pay attention to plugging in to support. Once the two go up, the one behind will have to fill in.

In the second half, the Japanese team continued to insist on possession of the ball, while the Chinese team still defended.

With active running, the Chinese team persisted. Although the opponent had a lot of possession, they couldn't hit the penalty area, so what?
The opponent scored into the penalty area several times, and the Chinese team was also very active in supplementary defense, destroying the ball.

It wasn't until the 88th minute that the Japanese team finally scored a goal from the substitute Keiji Tamada, but the Chinese team still maintained the score of 2:1 until the end of the game.

With the whistle of the referee, Gongti also fell into a huge carnival.

The Chinese team won the Asian Cup championship trophy for the first time in history, and the fate of Chinese football has finally changed.

In this time and space, perhaps they can still do something, and all these changes may be due to the appearance of Jia Yi.
