Chapter 144: Thank you for coming to see me playing football

"From the starting list announced by the Chinese team before the game, the Chinese team played a three-back formation in this game. Now as the game progresses, we can clearly see the position of the Chinese team players on the field. It's 352!"
About five minutes after the start of the game, He Feng and Yan Kang told the audience about the complete picture of the Chinese team's formation just shown on the game screen.
"Yes. The starting goalkeeper of this game is Hao De. Lin Zhiyuan, who was injured before the Asian Cup, is now recovering from his injury, but is still in recovery and is looking for a state. So this time coach Dillon did not recruit Lin Zhiyuan. Yao Huasheng, who was injured in the Asian Cup, also did not enter the continuation list of this national team. So the three guards are Wang Guangwei, Mao Junzheng and Liu Yan."
Yan Kang introduced.
"The midfielders are Jiang Wanqing and Xia Xiaoyu, who are the captains of the Chinese team in this game. The front midfielders are Zhang Qinghuan. To everyone's surprise, Luo Kai and Chen Xingyi, who were originally wingers, appeared in the position of wingers in this game. They are even further behind...On the front line, Hu Lai and Zhou Zijing partnered to start..."
In front of the TV, Shi Wuyin's wife was a little surprised: "Luo Kai and Chen Xingyi don't play wingers, they play wing forwards?"
Shi Wuyin stared at the clear 352 formation on the screen and nodded: "The famous marshal is worthy of being a famous marshal. This arrangement is very clever. Letting the two wingers retreat will solve the problem of Zhou Zijing's inability to play with Hu Lai's partner at the same time... Dillon is indeed the right person to lead this team."
"But are Luo Kai and Chen Xingyi willing to accept them? They are strikers, they have always been forwards, and now they suddenly become midfielders... And depending on the position arrangement, I am afraid they will have to go back when defending. Be a full-back. Doesn't this require a lot of their physical fitness? Are they willing?" His wife has followed Shi Wuyin after watching the ball for so many years. Some things can still be seen.
Shi Wuyin smiled and shook his head: "If it was Old Dong, that would definitely not be possible. But Jorge Dillon can. Only a big coach like him can make Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai accept the arrangement of changing positions. They have retreated, and of course they will take on more defensive tasks, but at the same time they have room to play their characteristics. After all, it can be seen in the Asian Cup that the opponents will not give them so much space to break through with the ball... …
"Before my set of 433, whether it was Chen Xingyi or Luo Kai, they still had to cut inward to get closer to Hu Lai. But now with this set of 352, Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai don't have to go to the middle, they can be right there. For side activities, make full use of the width of the court to open the opponent's defense line and increase the distance between the opponent's defenders. For Zhou Zijing, Hu Lai... and even Zhang Qinghuan to create one-on-one with the opponent's defender, or even play more There are few opportunities to come, and it can be said to be quite clever."
After listening to Shi Wuyin's explanation, his wife stopped asking questions and continued to watch the game.
In the TV broadcast, the Chinese team is controlling the ball for more than half of the court.
※※※
Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai occupied the two sides of the court, almost standing close to the sideline, pulling very open.
So the South African team players have to follow their defensive formation to take care of the side defense.
It's like spreading pancakes, not only spreading them large (stretched open), but also spreading thin (the formation is compressed very tightly).
The middle road is not so dense.
Xia Xiaoyu, who was in possession of the ball, passed the football back to Wang Guangwei, and he started to move forward.
After Wang Guangwei received the ball, he directly passed the ball long to find Zhou Zijing in the middle in front!
Zhou Zijing was on the penalty zone line, with his back to the offensive direction, open his arms, and firmly stuck South African central defender Sanelle Vesul behind him, and then jumped up to compete for the top.
Vesul stuck him and prevented him from pushing the football into the danger zone. But Zhou Zijing didn't want to do this either. He headed the ball back and gave the football back to Zhang Qinghuan who was outside the penalty area.
As soon as Zhang Qinghuan received the ball, a South African midfielder was blocked in front of him.
Hu Lai, who was on the penalty area line, suddenly started to move forward while raising his hand for the ball.
He attracted another South African central defender, Ricardo McWilli, to retreat, and at the same time attracted the attention of most South African players.
"Hu Lai got in!"
The narrator He Feng shouted, drawing the audience's attention to Hu Lai.
As a result, Zhang Qinghuan did not pass the ball to him, but knocked it sideways!
Xia Xiaoyu rushed in from outside the TV broadcast screen and shot the ball!
"Xia Xiaoyu has a long shot--!"
Hu Lai, who was in the running position, looked back and saw the football shot by Xia Xiaoyu flying towards him. He was right on the flight path of the football!
He hurriedly shyly closed his waist, just like letting the football pass behind his waist!
The football got into the gap between him and South African defender Ricardo McWillie!
Suddenly slammed in front of the South African goalkeeper Seri Sangre!
It was too late for him to make a save. He could only watch the football and flew into the goal not far from him!
"Huh?! This goal...Is this goal scored?!" The wife pointed to the TV and turned her head to confirm to Shi Wuyin.
But he found her husband staring at the TV screen dumbfounded, looking like he didn't expect it.
The commentator He Feng's voice sounded after a delay of about half a second: "This is a beautiful ball! The Chinese team scored a goal in just six minutes in the opening game!!"
※※※
Xia Xiaoyu himself was stunned for a moment. After seeing the football flying into the goal, he didn't raise his arms for the first time, but wanted to confirm whether it was true.
This is just the beginning!
We scored?
Wouldn't Hu be offside?
It's no wonder that Xia Xiaoyu is so unresolute. It is true that everyone did not expect the Chinese team to start so smoothly.
After the intensive training in the previous few days, the physical strength of the international footballers is not so good-if there is data visualization, the current physical strength of the national team players may be around 70%.
To play this game in this state, many people dare not have too high expectations for the game.
Although South Africa is not very strong, but the Chinese team is currently not in the best condition.
The players are prepared to play with South Africa for 90 minutes...
It turned out that this was just the beginning...Six minutes, it turned out to be ahead!
If it were not for the referee to point his hand to the middle circle after a whistle, everyone would not believe it.
Even the cheers in the stands took a beat before they sounded.
After it rang, it was like a surging river, endless.
Amid the huge roar, Hu Lai took the lead to pounce on Xia Xiaoyu, hugged him and shouted: "Shot beautifully, Xiaoyu!"
Xia Xiaoyu was still a little confused: "Brother Hu, you hit the ball, right?"
Hu Lai patted his head vigorously: "What are you thinking about! I didn't touch it, it was you who came in!"
Xia Xiaoyu's eyes widened: I'm going, did I score a goal? !
Everyone swarmed up to surround them both.
※※※
"The goal is...Have Hulai touched this ball?"
He Feng didn't dare to give a conclusion, he was far away in the commentary booth and couldn't really see it.
I just saw Xia Xiaoyu suddenly start a long shot, the football passed Hu Lai, and finally flew into the goal... I don't know if this is Xia Xiaoyu's goal, or he encountered Hu Lai's slight change of line. Because the performance of South African goalkeeper Sangre is as if he did not anticipate the flight trajectory of the football, this kind of performance will generally appear when the football has changed lines.
But they soon saw that instead of going to the corner flag area to do his signature celebration, Hu Lai turned and ran towards Xia Xiaoyu.
At the same time, other teammates also rushed to Xia Xiaoyu.
Based on experience, He Feng came to the conclusion: "This goal was scored by Xia Xiaoyu! A long shot directly penetrated the South African team's goal! Jorge Dillon's Chinese team, the first goal came from Xia Xiaoyu!"
Soon the TV broadcast of the goal replay confirmed his "experience":
In the slow motion shot from the angle behind Xia Xiaoyu, it can be clearly seen that Hu Lai made a dodge ball action. His handing just happened to have passed the football. The South African central defender Ricardo McWillie and goalkeeper Seri Sangre were caught off guard!
Therefore, the latter's strange performance when losing the ball was not because the football hit Hu Lai's body by the change of direction that caught him off guard, but he did not expect the ball to leak from Hu Lai's waist at all!
He may have been preventing football from hitting Hu Lai from changing lines...
He should have studied Hu Lai, knowing that he might suddenly appear on the flight trajectory of the football, rub the football slightly, and hit the goalkeeper by surprise.
It’s just that he didn’t expect that this time, he let...
What do you let!
At this moment, the South African goalkeeper Sangre may be frantically complaining about Hulai.
※※※
When the Chinese team players finished scoring to celebrate their return to their own half, the live broadcast announced:
"The Chinese team leads the South African team 1:0!"
The fans at the scene responded with huge cheers.
"Goal scorer-Xia Xiaoyu!!"
The cheers continued, even louder.
However, in a certain area of ​​one of the stands, a dozen or so fans were stunned.
"I heard that right, did I?" Xia Wu confirmed to the relatives around him, "It was ‘Xia Xiaoyu, the goal scorer’ was said on the broadcast just now, right?"
The other party nodded: "It seems to be..."
"Hurry!" Xia Wu who reacted quickly pulled the rope in his hand~EbookFREE.me~ At the same time, he motioned to his companions to raise their hands, and a red banner was raised in their stands.
These people are Xia Xiaoyu's relatives and friends, including the relatives and friends of Xia Xiaoyu's parents in Dongchuan and Jincheng.
The China Cup was held in Jincheng, which gave Xia Xiaoyu's relatives and friends the opportunity to cheer on the spot.
They also hope that Xiaoyu can perform well in the game, and it is worthy of their support on the spot.
But even they themselves didn't expect that Xia Xiaoyu would actually score a goal in this game, and still... take the lead!
The goal time was so early that they didn't have time to hang up the banner. Now it can only be used as a temporary railing with hands, and it is displayed in a hand-raised way.
Xia Xiaoyu's parents were also behind this banner, trying to raise their arms, raising the banner as high as possible, and then higher.
Although this completely blocked them, it made them invisible to the stadium. But that's not important, the important thing is to make this banner visible to my son!
As if she was telepathic, Xia Xiaoyu in the field suddenly turned her head to look here, cast her eyes straight, and saw the banner that was obviously larger than the normal banner size.
Being lifted, floating.
On a banner that was more than ten meters long, he could clearly see the words "Dou Da":
"Come on Xiaoyu! Let's see you play football!"
The banner was lifted aloft, concealing those who held it, and he couldn't see his face.
But he knew that his lovely relatives must be behind this banner.
So he raised his arm and waved to the banner on the stand and the people behind the banner.
Thank you for watching me play football!
