Vol 6 Chapter 33: Historic quarter

While the Netherlands and Chile are becoming more and more intense, the Chinese and Spanish games are in a relatively calm stage.
The game also entered the final ten minutes, but Mata's goal was not scored, which was a huge blow to the morale of the Spanish players.
If this is the case, just forget it. The key is that in the first half, Villa will miss another goal.
The two must-go goals have not been scored, which will make Spanish players doubt this World Cup, whether God will not stand on their side at all...
Under the leadership of Zhou Yi, the Chinese team players holding two goals played very calmly. If they did not have a very good chance, they would rather not attack and change the possession of the ball.
In addition, the Spanish players have abnormal mentality and increased active errors, which has also helped the Chinese team.
Seeing this scene, Liu Jianhong teased: "We can say now-there is not much time left for Spain!"
As soon as this remark came out, Chinese fans on the Internet issued a conscientious laugh.
"It's so cool to say this famous Chinese football quote to the defending champion!"
"Hahaha! There is not much time in the series! We did not expect that we would be able to say this to the world champion in our lifetime!"
But this also leads to another question-should Zhou Yi be replaced in advance?
Many Chinese fans actually think that Zhou Yi should be replaced. After all, this is his first official game after his injury and comeback, and it is still such a strong World Cup game. His physical fitness may not have fully recovered, and his injured part Whether you feel pain is also what everyone is worried about. Replacing him in advance can effectively protect him and avoid being injured again.
But at the same time, everyone is worried that after Zhou Yi is replaced, the Chinese team will lose control and thus make Spain comeback. This is not without precedent, and Chinese football has experienced many black encounters for three minutes. Through the comparison of this game and the previous two games, everyone knows that the Chinese team with Zhou Yi and the one without Zhou Yi are completely different teams.
Zhou Yi is like a strategic nuclear weapon for Spain. It is a deterrent on the court. Once it is off, it is as if China has actively destroyed all nuclear weapons. You have no capital to deter others. Under the full attack of Spain, China Can the team stand up?
Lippi has already made a decision when Chinese fans feel entangled in this.
He started substitutions in the 81st minute and first replaced Yang Hao with Zhao Xuyang. Yang Hao spent a lot of energy in this game. As a midfield sweeping midfielder, he needed to rely on a lot of running to defend. In addition to the pressure brought by the world championship, the Spanish players he defended in the game are all top-ranked players in Europe. He is just a player who plays in the country. Both sides have The great strength gap and great pressure also made him consume more physical energy faster than usual.
It can be seen that his running is not as positive as before, and his reaction speed is also declining. If he does not change, the Chinese team's midfield defense will be prone to problems.
Yang Muge is reassuring. After all, it has been tested in the Bundesliga and the Champions League. Whether it is the rhythm of the game or the reasonable distribution of physical fitness, or its own physical reserve, it is better than Yang Hao. At this time in the game, he still seemed to be at ease, able to accelerate when he was accelerating, and not falling when the body was fighting.
In the 85th minute, Lippi replaced Wu Lei with Gao Lin.
Wu Lei worked hard and had a chance in this game, but he didn't grasp it once. This is quite in line with his ability-he has excellent running ability and a positive attitude to play, but the shooting technique is worse compared to it, and he feels that he is far from being in front of the goal. Although he is the top scorer in the domestic league, the defensive strength of the domestic league certainly cannot be compared with the World Cup. And Lippi’s positioning of him is not to make him a scoring weapon for siege, but to use his speed and running position to involve the opponent’s defense line and create opportunities. In this regard, Wu Lei did quite well.
Switching to Gao Lin is Lippi hoping to strengthen the ball control ability. Gao Lin is also not the kind of superb shooter. Although he plays the center, he has always been the kind of "tactical center" position whether in the club or the national team. He uses the body and technology to control the ball and make the ball for teammates.
After Gao Lin played, He Ying went to the right, Gao Lin was centered, the Chinese team still has the ability to fight back.
If Spain wants to attack in desperation at the last moment, the Chinese team can also threaten Spain's goal with a quick counterattack.
But Spain's offensive still has no rules and can't threaten the Chinese team's goal.
After all, they are already out of the game early, this game won or lost, and the result will not change. The so-called "fighting for honor", it must really have enough honour, this Spanish national team is now falling apart, I am afraid that there are not many people with real honour...
In this lover situation, when the fourth official raised the sign of the injury stoppage time for four minutes, Lippi decided to use the last substitution in his hand.
Zheng Zhi stood on the sidelines.
Seeing this scene, Liu Jianhong said: "Zheng Zhi is going to play... Who will he replace? Will it be Zhou Yi? Zhou Yi should indeed take a break in advance, to know that this is his first official game one month after his injury. Ah... his performance is very good, but also be careful of the recurrence of old injuries..."
Soon the ball appeared on the court, and the fourth official raised the sign of substitution. It clearly showed that the substitution of the Chinese team was on the 23rd and 10th!
The Chinese fans in the Baishadah Arena stood up and gave Zhou Yi applause and cheers.
"Sure enough! Zhou Yi is going to end! He didn't play the whole game, but he is the Chinese team that can beat this game...Sorry, it is the leading hero in Spain temporarily! Thank you, Zhou Yi!" Liu Jianhong said emotionally. "This game proves that Lippi and Zhou Yi insisted on being right! Their waiting and dedication have also received corresponding rewards! Take a good rest, Zhou Yi!"
"Rippy replaced Zhou Yi in advance. This is not necessarily to allow him to rest for a few more minutes. He feels more meaning to let Zhou Yi enjoy this honor alone. He also deserves such treatment. If not Zhou Yi, whether the Chinese team can beat Spain is really difficult to say, and with him, the score is clearly on the big screen... before the World Cup, there are still people worrying about whether Zhou Yi can play his strength in the club in the national team, now Everyone can dispel such doubts. Zhou Yi is still that Zhou Yi! I am even more looking forward to the Chinese team's game after the World Cup. What other surprises will he give us?"
※※※
Seeing that he was about to be replaced, Zhou Yi trot towards the sidelines, and while walking, he also rolled down the armband of the captain on his arm and clutched it in his hand.
When he walked to the sidelines, he put the captain's armband on Zheng Zhi's arm and hugged him to complete the handover ceremony.
Then he walked off the field, raised his hands high, and applauded the Chinese fans in the stands. The Chinese fans responded with greater applause and cheers.
Fans also waved Zhou Yi's portraits to express their love for Zhou Yi.
Even the TV broadcast captured several foreigners in the stands wearing Zhou Yi's jersey in Dortmund, perhaps a Dortmund fan in Germany, who rushed to Brazil to support Zhou Yi and watch Zhou Yi's game.
After thanking the fans, Zhou Yi walked to Lippi and stretched out his hand to Lippi to shake hands.
However, after holding his hand, Lippi directly pulled him into his arms, then gave Zhou Yi a strong hug and patted him firmly on his back.
As a thank you.
※※※
Zhou Yi was off, leaving Spain less than three minutes.
Spain did prevent the offensive offensive at the last minute, but Sun Pan and the other players of the Chinese team were all committed to the defense, they did not give Spain a chance to score.
At the 94th minute and 7 seconds of the game, the referee Shukla blew the whistle at the end of the game!
"The game is over! The game is over! 2:0! The Chinese team defeated Spain in the qualifying life-and-death match~EbookFREE.me~ got a precious three points! This way the Chinese team will accumulate five points, regardless The Chinese team will qualify from this group for the Netherlands and Chile." Liu Jianhong said, his face flushed, and he was very excited and excited.
"This is a historic moment! The Chinese men's football team broke into the World Cup knockout stage for the first time in history! Audience friends! We have witnessed the birth of history! Thank you Zhou Yi! Thank Lippi! Thank you Sun Pan! Thank you Guo Nu... …Thank you every player of the Chinese team! Thank you every member of the Chinese national team! At this moment, we are the happiest person, let us enjoy this happy moment!"
Liu Jianhong's words just fell, and every Chinese heard familiar songs from the stands of the Baishadah Arena.
"The five-star red flag flutters in the wind, how loud is the victory song!!"
This is the first time the song "Singing the Motherland" sings in the land of Brazil, but everyone who hears the song hopes this is not the last time.
