Let's look at our Chinese team again. We met the North American champion Mexico team. The Mexican team survived the last 16 and eliminated the mighty Spanish team. After 120 minutes of fierce fighting, the score was 0-0. In the end, through a penalty shootout, the goalkeeper of the Mexican team showed great power and blocked two penalty kicks from the Spanish team in a row when a penalty kick was saved first.As a result, they advanced to a thrilling 4-3 penalty shootout.

The quarter-finals of the Chinese team against Mexico will return to Krakow. We have finished two rounds of group matches here, so we are very familiar with this venue.

The Chinese fans at the scene today once again demonstrated their strong backing force, and the Chinese Red Devils fans almost occupied the entire stadium.The Chinese team seems to be back at home again.

In this game, the Chinese team adopted a 2323 tactic, and the opponent was 541.

The two teams have played against each other five times in the past ten years, with two wins, one draw and two losses each.As two invited teams, they meet in the European Cup today, and both sides have a [-]% chance of winning.Whoever wins makes history?

The quarter-finals started on time. Whether the Chinese team can break their iron barrel formation is very exciting. In the round of 16, the Mexican team successfully dragged the Spanish team into a penalty shootout by using their impeccable defense.This is also their tactical layout.Now against the Chinese team, they will have other ideas.

In the beginning, the Mexican team mainly defended in the backcourt, leaving the frontcourt completely empty to the Chinese team.

The Chinese team does not have as strong offensive power as the European and American teams, but our flexible and ingenious cooperation, which also created some troubles for the opponent, especially the tacit cricket, which made the opponent dare not relax at all times.

In the 8th minute, the Chinese team ushered in a good opportunity to attack. The Chinese team's offensive in the frontcourt almost caused the opponent to make a mistake. It was the captain of the Mexican team who had the overall situation on the field. teammates' mistakes.

At that time, Zhang Yike and Lu Yun broke forward with two sharp swords at the same time. The ball was still at Zhang Wei's feet. Zhang Wei's assist ability was elusive, and the opponent knew it well. After the siege passed, only one player was staring at Zhang Yike. Unexpectedly, Lu Yun was not gluttonous and directly gave Zhang Yike a head. Just as the opponent turned around to attack him, Zhang Yike sensed an opportunity... a cold shot...

Suddenly, a figure flew out, and it happened to stick out of the bottom line.This person is the captain of the Mexican team.

Judging from the slow-motion playback, if the ball is allowed to pass through, its line will go straight to the inside of the post. It is estimated that it will be difficult for the goalkeeper to save the cold shot from this angle.

The captain of the Mexican team sacrificed his life to make a rescue, allowing the Chinese team to miss the goal.

With the lessons learned this time, the Mexican team will focus more on defense and slowly wait for their best sneak attack to arrive.

The defense of the Mexican team is indeed worth learning for all teams. Their zone defense is very reasonable, and basically they will not give opponents an opportunity to take advantage of the frontcourt.

In the 19th minute, the Mexican team got a throw-in in the backcourt. Suddenly, they sent it out quickly. After a few passes, they reached the midfield, and then launched a quick counterattack.The Chinese team failed to steal in the midfield and had to retreat as a whole.

Facing the sneak attack of the Mexican team, we have long been mentally prepared. As long as we don't panic and make no mistakes, it will be difficult for our opponents to pose a threat to us.

The Mexican team failed to make a breakthrough several times in a row, but was jointly intercepted by Lin Bosen and Liu Dong, and their surprise attack was thus declared a failure.

The Chinese team has regained control of the scene, and we are organizing the attack again...

In the 33rd minute, the Chinese team won the fourth corner kick of the game. Zhang Wei took the penalty. He was holding up three fingers...

There are already a lot of players from both sides standing in front of the goal.It seemed a bit chaotic, but suddenly Zhang Wei tried his best to free the ball to the back point. Lin Bosen had already prepared to sprint ahead of time, and he suddenly exerted strength and got rid of his opponent. The opportunity... Lin Bosen rushed up with a small kick Angle shot...

Oops! Being blocked by the goalkeeper with his foot in a panic, Lu Yun grabbed the spot and collided with the opponent. Before the opponent fell to the ground, he tried to clear the siege with his foot. Unexpectedly, he was stealthily intercepted by Liu Dong, who was waiting for the opportunity to lurk in the penalty area. Well, the opportunity... …shoot……

Oh my god! The goalkeeper is so amazing, he blocked it again, but was kicked out of the sideline by the opponent's captain.

This is the best shot for the Chinese team, but unfortunately it was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper.

The result ended the first half 0-0.

Throughout the first half, the Chinese team's ball possession rate was as high as 61%. Unfortunately, there were several opportunities without scoring.The opponent's goalkeeper continued his bravery in the last game against the Spanish team, otherwise, the Chinese team would at least lead 1-0.

Changing sides to fight again, the Mexican team did not change their tactics, they played their best defense to the fullest.

In the 69th minute, the Mexican team changed their previous tactics and launched an attack in advance. I remember that they would go all out at the end of the game to give their opponent a fatal blow. Maybe they also know the defense of the Chinese team better and want to realize their goal. Without repeated attacks, it would be difficult to gain anything.

However, this counterattack was intercepted by the Chinese team in the backcourt, and they could only return to defense quickly.

Next, they launched several counterattacks in a row, but they failed to do so.

The Chinese team also failed to score. The 90-minute game between the two sides was 0-0 and will enter overtime.

The Mexican team has been dragged into overtime for two consecutive games. Now, physical fitness is their biggest test. As a result, in the 11th minute of overtime, captain Zheng Wei shot in the frontcourt and hit the opponent's leg in the chaos Catapult into the net...

With an own goal, the Chinese team finally defeated the Mexican team 1-0 with an own goal and successfully advanced to the semi-finals.

See you in the semifinals!
