Chapter 42: We are still alive

Fifty thousand Chinese fans are singing the national anthem in the Labor People's Stadium in Xingtan City, Jianshan Province.
"...The Chinese nation has arrived! The most dangerous time..."
Why sing the national anthem at this time?
Because the Chinese team on the field is indeed at the most dangerous time.
There are five minutes before the regular 90-minute game time ends, but the Chinese team at home is behind 1:2.
In another top 12 match in the afternoon, Qatar and Australia in the away game tied 0:0. This is a major benefit for Saudi Arabia. As long as they can beat the Chinese team on the road, they will surpass Australia with 13 points and rise to second place in the group. Have the opportunity to qualify directly for the World Cup finals.
So they played very proactively in this game, not at all like playing away.
Although the first to break the deadlock was the Chinese team-Lou Jiarong's long shot from outside the penalty zone refracted the sideline on the Saudi Arabian player's leg, making the opponent's goalkeeper unable to save.
The Chinese team therefore took the lead.
But then Saudi Arabia chased two goals in ten minutes, rewriting the score to 2:1.
Next, Shi Wuyin made tactical adjustments and replaced Luo Kai with the more experienced forward Gao Chen.
But still unable to break the goal of Saudi Arabia.
If the Chinese team loses to Saudi Arabia, it will not only be left far behind by Saudi Arabia, but it will also not be able to take advantage of the opportunity of Qatar and Australia to tie each other and continue to bite their opponents.
So you can't lose, absolutely can't lose.
In fact, before the start of this game, Chinese fans wanted to win Saudi Arabia at home.
After all, Australia has already reached a tie with Qatar, and the snipe and clam are fighting, and it is their turn to profit from the Chinese team.
Everyone is looking forward to the Chinese team defeating Saudi Arabia at home. If this is the case, the Chinese team will tie the same Saudi Arabia by ten, surpassing Qatar, the fourth in the group, and only one point away from Australia, the second in the group.
With three rounds left in the group stage, the Chinese team may even advance directly to the World Cup finals as the top two in the group!
Dreams are full, but reality is so skinny...
Now the Chinese fans don't even think about taking all three points. If they can not lose, they will be satisfied.
The TV broadcasts repeatedly appeared anxious and helpless expressions of Chinese players. These were close-up shots of Chinese players at different periods of time.
At this time, the broadcast was concentrated, and the Chinese fans in front of the TV were also upset.
Before the bench, there were a lot of substitute players from the Chinese team. They were no longer able to continue to sit firmly on the bench. Instead, they stood up and walked to the sidelines to stare at the stadium and cheer for their teammates.
Luo Kai, who had been back on the bench a long time ago, was still sitting in his chair, looking at the stadium as well, his face was not very good.
After he opened the scoring for the national team last game, he was happy for a long time. He is full of pride and self-confidence in his heart, and thinks that his opponents in the top twelve are nothing but the same.
Looking forward to continuing the outstanding performance against the UAE in the game against Saudi Arabia.
As a result, because of his outstanding performance in the previous game, he was closely guarded by Saudi Arabian players in this game. As a player with the ball, there is no room to display his speed, his threat dropped by nearly half.
As a result, he was replaced by coach Shi Wuyin in the 62nd minute, becoming the first player to be replaced in the game.
what does this mean?
It means that his performance in this game is very bad, betraying the trust and expectations of the coach.
Luo Kai couldn't forgive himself.
He was supposed to help the team score, but he became the weakest link of the Chinese team.
If I lose this game, how should I face those gazes...
※※※
Chen Xingyi put his hands on his knees and was gasping for breath.
He started this game and played until now. Shi Gui has used up all three substitutions, he shouldn't be replaced again.
Why did Luo Kai have been replaced, but let himself stay on the court?
Obviously, the guidance is that he can help the Chinese team's offense and can contribute to the Chinese team's goals.
But until now he has not been able to create a murderous opportunity for the Chinese team.
He lived up to the high hopes Shi Zhi had placed on him.
I can’t just forget it...
Thinking of this, he straightened up again, and as the Saudi Arabian player threw out the ball, he threw himself into the game again.
He rushed up from the back of the Saudi Arabian player who had just received the ball.
The Saudi Arabian player turned around after receiving the ball and saw a person approaching, and the two collided with each other.
Chen Xingyi was a step too late. Before he could force it, he saw that the opponent player had collided with Lou Jiarong.
The opposing player seemed to reflexively stretched his foot and stabbed the ball, trying to stoke the football away.
As a result, the football just hit Lou Jiarong's leg and bounced to the other side, bounced... bounced towards Chen Xingyi!
He didn't care about whether the referee would blow the whistle or not, so he stretched out his foot and hooked the football to his feet, and then advanced with the ball!
"Lou Jiarong's counter grab was successful! Chen Xingyi took the ball to the middle!"
Instead of dribbling the ball along the sideline, Chen Xingyi chose to dribble to the center.
After all, the middle is more threatening.
It can also upset Saudi Arabia's defense!
Sure enough, seeing Chen Xingyi rushing to the center with the ball, two Saudi Arabian players immediately tried to close the goal.
Without hesitation, Chen Xingyi passed the football directly to Gao Ruimin next to him.
After passing the ball, he quickly changed his direction to break out of the encirclement between the two Saudi Arabian players.
Gao Ruimin kept passing the ball forward and handed it back to Chen Xingyi.
He was kicked from behind by a Saudi Arabian player just after he passed the football.
There was a burst of booing and cursing from the stands.
The referee did not stop the game, but raised his hands flat and ran forward.
"The offense is good! Chen Xingyi received the ball!"
The two Saudi Arabian players who had besieged Chen Xingyi just now turned and chased them.
One of them has quickly affixed Chen Xingyi from the left, while pulling his jersey with his hands.
Chen Xingyi's body couldn't get up quickly for a while, and was a little swaying.
But he still insisted on dribbling the ball forward, and instead of running into the empty space, he ran to another Saudi Arabian player!
Just when the player was finally attracted to him, he stabbed Zhang Qinghuan behind the Saudi Arabian player with the toe of his right foot while running!
I leave it to you, Brother Huan!
After passing the ball, he finally couldn't hold his balance anymore and was pulled to the ground by his opponent...
But his eyes were still fixed on Brother Huan.
He saw that Huan Ge took a step forward when he received the ball to attract the Saudi Arabian central defender to defend him.
Just when the two were about to collide, Zhang Qinghuan kicked the football first!
The direction of the football is just behind the Saudi Arabian central defender who came up to defend him just now!
"Zhang Qinghuan went straight... a good shot!"
The reason why He Feng shouted was because he saw that while Zhang Qinghuan passed the ball, Hu Lai, who was on the right rib, suddenly jumped forward and squeezed into the penalty area from the Saudi Arabia defender who was defending him closely!
The Saudi Arabian defender only had time to reflexively stretched his foot to stop the football, but did not stop. At the same time, he opened his arms to intercept Hu Lai, but he didn't stop him either!
Then he turned around and saw Hu Lai catching the ball behind him, so he did not continue to chase, but stood still and raised his arm to signal to the referee Hu Lai is offside...
But how could this ball be offside? !
The Chinese fans in the stands saw this scene burst out with huge cheers, like a storm seat pressing against Saudi Arabia's penalty zone!
"Hu Lai!"
"Hu Lai!"
When Hu Lai, who was behind the entire back line of Saudi Arabia, received the football, the Saudi Arabian goalkeeper had just ran to the small penalty area...
He did not continue to dribble the ball, and did not make any adjustments, but a sudden push with his right foot directly during the run, pushing the football to the close corner of the goal!
The Saudi Arabian goalkeeper who fell to the ground with the football turned his toes into the goal!
Chen Xingyi, who was lying on the ground and seeing this scene, struggled to get up from the ground and ran to Hu Lai at an acceleration.
Zhang Qinghuan jumped up and waved his fists, and followed.
The storm fell from the sky, and the entire working people's stadium was full of the sound of violent winds.
"Hu Laibeautiful!!! Beautiful!!! Lore! The eighty-seventh minute lore! He helped the Chinese team equalize! This is a worthy goal!" He Feng shouted hoarsely. "The Chinese team is alive again! We are still alive!!!"
※※※
Luo Kai, who was sitting on the bench watching the ball, suddenly jumped up from his seat, rushed to the sidelines, and then forced the towel on his neck to the ground!
Then he raised his head and yelled and punched the sky.
The Chinese team players next to him also hugged and were as excited as Luo Kai.
They screamed, waved their fists, and someone used the water bottle in their hand as a water gun, splashing water everywhere, as if it was not a bottle of mineral water, but champagne...
Shi Wuyin hugged Li Zhifei and Hong Renjie, laughing and jumping.
More than 50,000 Chinese fans in the stands jumped up and fell at the same time, making the camera lens set up high in the stadium stand shake.
It looks as if the stadium is shaking!
※※※
After the goal, Hu Lai turned and ran to the corner flag area. This time he failed to make his signature celebration action because he was hugged by Gao Chen in the middle, and then directly pulled to the ground and pressed up.
Then more Chinese team players swarmed, jumped up, and pounced on.
"Fuck me! Fuck me!"
"Great! Great!"
"Ah ah ah ah ah--!"
"Hu Lai, what a bunker!"
"Brother Huan, you are also a bunker!"
...
Behind the Chinese team players celebrating the carnival, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com is a Saudi Arabian player.
Some of them stood on the spot with hands on hips, some were dumbfounded at the football in the goal, and some cast confused eyes at the Chinese team players celebrating the goal.
Some people are now realizing that cooked ducks can fly, and the three points they get...nothing!
