God of Green
Chapter 252
As time went by, the score of 0-1 remained unchanged. The Chinese players began to get anxious, while the Qatar team began to consciously slow down their attack and shrink their defense.
Since they could not expand the score after attacking for so long, it was good to keep the advantage of 1 goal lead, at least they could win and surpass the Chinese team in points.
Therefore, when the game time was running out, the Qatar team began to shrink their defense and strive to maintain the 1-0 lead.
Moreover, not only did the formation shrink, but the head coach of Qatar also made substitutions, replacing an offensive player with a defensive player to strengthen the defense.
After the formation shrank and the number of defenders increased, Qatar's defense against Jiang Xiaolin became more stringent, leaving Jiang Xiaolin with basically no chance to break into the penalty area or get a pass from his teammates.
Qatar, which was originally shrinking its defense, piled up players from both sides in the backcourt. The personnel were very dense, and there were two or three defensive players who were specifically guarding Jiang Xiaolin for a long time, which made Jiang Xiaolin, the super shooter who was in the Dutch League, helpless.
Jiang Xiaolin could not make a breakthrough here, and the Chinese team could only rely on other players to try to break through and shoot.
Fortunately, although other players did not have the speed, physique and shooting ability of Jiang Xiaolin, their skills could occasionally create threats at the Asian level.
In the 83rd minute, it was the breakthrough of left forward Hao Junmin on the left that caused the opponent to foul, winning a free kick on the left side of the front of the penalty area for the Chinese team.
This free kick was about 25 or 26 meters away from the goal, and the angle and position were very good. If there was a free kick master, this free kick would be very threatening.
Unfortunately, the Chinese team did not have any free kick masters, and in the end Jiang Xiaolin had to take the penalty.
Before the game, fans across the country had too high expectations for him, thinking that as long as Jiang Xiaolin was there, the Chinese team would definitely win.
Jiang Xiaolin also had to pay for his carelessness before the game.
He believed that if he could add one or two team aura attributes before the game, the Chinese team would definitely not play like this.
Therefore, Jiang Xiaolin took the initiative to stand up and ask for the penalty kick, and no one else argued with him.
There was nothing to argue about.
As the current star player and core player of the Chinese team, Jiang Xiaolin wanted to take the penalty kick, and no one else had anything to say.
What's more, the other players were in such a bad state and under great pressure. Even if they took the penalty kick, it would be difficult to score under great pressure and poor state.
Giving it to Jiang Xiaolin and transferring the pressure to him was what everyone wanted.
When Jiang Xiaolin stood behind the penalty spot, it caused a nervousness among the Qatari players.
Although Jiang Xiaolin did not score many free kicks, his reputation was still very intimidating.
After all, Jiang Xiaolin's superb shooting skills were recognized by the world.
Therefore, seeing Jiang Xiaolin standing behind the free kick penalty spot, Qatar's goalkeeper Saker nervously directed his teammates to stand in the human wall to try to block the angle of Jiang Xiaolin's shot.
Jiang Xiaolin looked at the human wall and goalkeeper Saker standing at the back of the goal, and constantly simulated the angle of the shot in his mind.
His current arc attribute is only 13 points. He is not sure to hit the arc, let alone make the arc just bypass the goalkeeper and enter the goal frame.
Now there is little time left before the end of the game, Jiang Xiaolin must cherish every chance to shoot.
Qatar will not give him too many opportunities to shoot in the mobile war, and this free kick opportunity is rare.
Therefore, Jiang Xiaolin finally decided to avoid the human wall and hit the back of the goal, first ensuring that it hits within the goal frame.
After the referee blew the whistle for the penalty kick, Jiang Xiaolin calmed down, then started to run up, then stood on his left foot and kicked the ball with his right foot with all his strength.
Under the tense gaze of countless Chinese fans at the scene and in front of the TV, the ball flew off the ground, flew past the side of the human wall at a high speed, and flew to the upper corner behind the goal without any arc.
The only threat was that Jiang Xiaolin's shot was very powerful, the ball was very fast, and the angle was very tricky.
Jiang Xiaolin's perfect shooting skills allowed him to accurately aim at the upper dead corner of the far end of the Qatar goal even though the distance was more than 20 meters.
Because Jiang Xiaolin did not have many free kick records, the goalkeeper of Qatar had no reference materials and was unsure whether Jiang Xiaolin would shoot at the near corner or the far corner.
However, based on the history of Jiang Xiaolin's rare arc shots, he judged that Jiang Xiaolin lacked arc skills, so it would be difficult to bypass the human wall and shoot at the near corner, and it was more likely to shoot at the far corner.
So in the end, the goalkeeperSaker stood at the far end of the goal without moving, and he was ready to save the ball after seeing the path of the ball.
This decision allowed him to defend the goal.
If he had moved his center of gravity to the near end of the goal in advance, he would definitely not have been able to save the ball.
Because Jiang Xiaolin's shot power and ball speed were too fast, and the angle was very tricky, it went straight to the far upper corner of the goal.
It was precisely because the goalkeeper did not move that Saker, who was standing at the far end of the goal, had time to step back after seeing the path of the ball, and then jumped up in time to save the ball, just poking the ball out of the crossbar.
If it was a little slower, Jiang Xiaolin's extremely fast and powerful long-range shot might have gone into the dead corner.
After saving the ball, Saker, who landed, felt a little scared.
The ball was too fast and the angle was too tricky. If his center of gravity had tilted slightly toward the near end of the goal, the delay might have made him miss the ball.
Even if the delay was only 0.01 seconds.
Fortunately, he made the right bet, stabilizing his body and not moving, and did not rush to the near end, so he was able to save Jiang Xiaolin's shot that was heading for the far corner.
Seeing that Jiang Xiaolin's shot that was heading for the goal corner was saved by the Qatari goalkeeper, Chinese fans and TV commentators in the stands and in front of the TV sighed in disappointment.
Some fans even covered their eyes and looked like they were crying.
Perhaps they were too sad that the ball did not go in.
Indeed, it was a pity that the ball did not go in.
It can be said that this ball was one of the most threatening shots Jiang Xiaolin made in this game.
If this ball could not be scored, and there was not much time left in the game, Chinese fans could not help but feel panic.
Is the Chinese team really going to lose this game? Will the points be overtaken by Qatar?
