Ultimate Demon Sword

Chapter 87

This time of conceding the ball is very bad. It seems that the opponent will get through the three strikes in the first 10 minutes. The defense can take a little breather.

Moreover, own goals are the most demoralizing and boosting opponents' prestige among all scoring methods. In this Seoul World Cup Stadium, which has brought countless pains to Chinese football, the national football team once again had a bad start.

"Currently the Chinese team's problem lies in the midfield. Wu Xi and Huang Bowen are both stronger in offense than defense, while the opponent's Ki Sung-yong is a midfielder at the Premier League level. His confrontation ability and defensive positioning are very good. This kind of focus matchup has always been that the midfielder wins the world. The high-level coach needs to make adjustments as soon as possible."

He Wei prescribed the right medicine for the Chinese team.

The away game fell behind by one goal, and the Chinese team had no choice but to attack. Gao Hongbo came to the sidelines and kept gesturing to push forward. At the same time, he shouted to Wu Xi and Huang Bowen in the midfield, encouraging them to increase the pressure.

Wen Zhihao watched the opponent's playing style and his teammates' running habits from the bench, mentally simulating how to maximize the team's offensive threat if he was on the court.

With the deepening of the game, the bold Chinese team still found some good opportunities. No. 305 minutes, Huang Bowen sent a long pass over the top, and the martial arts king who inserted into the opponent's penalty area at high speed formed a single-handed situation. The Chinese fans in the stands behind the South Korean team's goal suddenly raised their arms and screamed loudly.

Facing the attacking goalkeeper Zheng Chenglong, the martial arts king once again displayed his "unique skill" of single-handed invulnerability, and his kick was a little slower. Zhang Xianxiu, who plays for Guangzhou R&F in the Chinese Super League, chased back desperately and broke the ball out of the bottom line.

The "Asian Red Devils" phalanx of South Korean fans saw the heroic performance of the home team players and responded with warm applause, while in the stands on the side of the "Dragon Team", the expectations that had just risen sharply turned into deep regrets in an instant.

Wen Zhihao looked at the martial arts king who was acting like this on the court, and helplessly smiled bitterly.If it were me, it would be completely useless to send the ball into the goal under such circumstances, but... ha ha!
It seems that it is not a state problem that he kicked the single-handed ball during training.

In high-intensity confrontation and fast-changing games, it is often difficult to balance offense and defense.The Chinese team’s offense has indeed improved compared to the opening stage. The problem that followed is that there are more loopholes on the defensive end. The opponent’s Ki Sung-yong and Gu Zizhe have more room to pass the ball. The two Premier League double stars Sun Xingmin and Li Qinglong firmly suppressed the two full-backs Zhang Linpeng and Ren Hang of the national football team. On the whole, the opponent created far more threatening offenses than the Chinese team.

Fortunately, until the end of the first half, the score was still fixed at 0:1. The precious 15 minutes of the intermission are like gold for the national football team.

During the intermission, *TV, which obtained the copyright of the live broadcast of the Top [-] match, asked netizens a question: What adjustments will the national football team make in the second half to reverse the unfavorable situation?
More than [-]% of the fans chose the option of "Wen Zhihao on, strengthen the midfielder", which shows the aspirations of the people.

Midfield locker room.

Gao Hongbo used his precious time to emphasize tactics to the players, encouraging the players to strengthen their offense as they did in the second half of the first half, and to counterattack immediately after losing the ball to find opportunities for counterattacks.

After the tactics were set up, the old captain Zheng Zhi walked up to Wen Zhihao with a bottle of water, and while drinking, he patted Wen Zhihao on the shoulder to cheer him up: "Zhihao, calm down. There will definitely be opportunities for you to perform in the second half."

Wen Zhihao smiled at the old captain: "I hope!"

Gao Hongbo was having a complicated ideological struggle in his heart, so he didn't know that Wen Zhihao's playing was the best way to solve the problem.But under the roof, he had to bow his head. If he wanted to continue to contribute to the national team in this position, he could not ignore the instructions of the Football Association.

For a moment, Gao Hongbo's eyes collided with Wen Zhihao's, and he saw the longing and rising fighting spirit in Wen Zhihao's eyes.

Forget it, let's talk about it as a last resort.

Gao Hongbo made the first substitution adjustment in the second half minute.Hao Junmin came on to replace Wu Xi.

He Wei was a little hesitant when he saw this substitution: "Huh? Director Gao replaced Wu Xi with Hao Junmin, a match-up adjustment. Hao Junmin's passing ability is stronger, but the Chinese team needs a midfielder who is good at running and opening the defensive line... Let's see the effect of this substitution!"

In front of the screen, some fans, including Wen's father and mother, were anxiously waiting for the figure they most wanted to see to walk on the court.

But they didn't wait for Wen Zhihao's appearance, instead they saw that the situation on the court took a sharp turn for the worse.

No. 603 minutes, South Korean star Sun Xingmin beat Zhang Linpeng with speed on the left, and made a cross near the baseline. The left back Ren Hang, who hit the back point, violated the taboo of watching the ball and not watching people.It is impossible to stop the ball from flying into the net.

0:2!The national football team was hit again!
Only the Koreans were left in the arena celebrating wildly, and the fans of the "Dragon Team" were in the same mood as the fans watching.

On the field captain Zheng Zhi calmed down the emotions of the team members, and at the same time shouted at Gao Hongbo with obvious dissatisfaction: "I'm not going to Zhihao! What are you doing? If you don't go up, it's really over!"

This is suspected of challenging the authority of the head coach, but it is not difficult to understand.Senior industry insiders and fans know that Gao Hongbo didn't like Zheng Zhi very much when he was the head coach of the two national football teams. In the last two miraculous games of the top [-], the captain of the national team for many years was even excluded from the squad.

Although the attitudes of both parties were relatively harmonious when they were interviewed by the media, who can guarantee that they have no thoughts deep in their hearts!

Hearing Zheng Zhi's angry shout, Gao Hongbo's face froze a little, turned around and glanced at Wen Zhihao, walked up to Guo Bingyan, and discussed in a low voice: "Leader Guo, look at the current situation, should we solve the troubles on the field first? Special treatment for special situations! I'll communicate with the leader after the meeting, okay? You can accommodate me."

Guo Bingyan understood Gao Hongbo's meaning, shook his head slightly and said, "Director Gao, I'm just following orders, and I'll do what my superiors tell me to do. Besides, look, there are so many people besides him, don't you have no cards to play besides Wen Zhihao?"

Gao Hongbo sighed helplessly and could only give up.

There is a saying that people are watching, maybe God also feels unfair for Wen Zhihao, so he gave the national football team a sap.

No. 606 minutes, Sun Xingmin did the same again. After erasing Zhang Linpeng from the wing, the ball swept across the goal with a low flat ball. Gu Zizhe from the back point outflanked and shot a low shot. The ball bounced inside the left post and flew into the dead corner at the other end. 0:3!

Three goals behind, many Chinese fans scolded CNM severely, and then turned off the TV angrily.

Father Wen's face was livid, he was angry at the lack of performance of the players on the field, and also anxious that his son could not play at this time.

Wen Zhihao sat on the bench and couldn't stand it any longer, so he took the initiative to go up to Wen Zhihao and challenge him: "Director Gao, let me go! Trust me, I can do it!"

Gao Hongbo gave him a deep look, and refused with a helpless tone: "Zhihao, sit back, it's not time for you to go up yet."

Wen Zhihao was in a hurry: "It's the score, when will I have to wait? My confrontation in the club is even stronger than this. I just need one chance, you won't regret it!"

Guo Bingyan turned around at this time and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Wen, the collective is always higher than the individual! The current situation cannot be changed by you alone. Obey the arrangement!"
