Vol 4 Chapter 45: Change to play halfback

The game time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye came ninety minutes of regular time. The fourth official also came to the sidelines and held a three-minute injury stoppage time electronic card.
Throughout the second half, the two sides of the game each had a substitution, so a three-minute injury stoppage time was a fairly reasonable stoppage time. The on-site commentary commentator called it no problem, but the Dutch National Sports TV commentator Van Vincent Quite a word: "Where is three minutes of injury stoppage time? At least five minutes!"
In fact, according to the current defensive attention of the Chinese team, even if the Dutch team is given ten more minutes, it is difficult to score.
The reason is very simple. Several players on the offensive end of the Dutch team have little confidence. Especially in the face of Sneijder who is defended by Tang Zheng, his offensive organization in the second half will subconsciously bypass Tang Zheng, so that the overall attack bias of the Dutch team The sword went slanted.
Perhaps many times the game of swords and spurs can work wonders, but when Robben loses threats, Sneijder can no longer play a big role. The offensive end creates a limited amount of threats.
Van Gaal, the Dutch team coach, watched the non-scoring game shaking his head and was obviously extremely dissatisfied with the team's performance.
In addition, the Dutch national team is now in the blue-green stage. Sneijder, Robben, Van Persie and other golden generation players have reached the age of thirty. The game experience is really nothing to say, but there are too few capable young players, and Mesozoic players are difficult to take on.
This is also the fundamental reason why Van Gaal made only one substitution adjustment during the period from injury to stoppage time. It is not that there is no substitution, but there is no one to change.
Rather than using players who cannot enter the French eye, it is better to continue to believe in the players on the court.
Maybe ... there is a chance?
Not far away, the Chinese team coach Lippi was very satisfied with the Chinese players on the field. Although he did not grasp the limited chance of a quick counterattack, it was very difficult to maintain the 0: 0 score until the injury stoppage time.
Chinese fans at Xinshuiyuan Stadium are in high spirits, and the performance of Chinese players from the start of the game to the present has exceeded their expectations.
I thought about it before the Dutch draw at regular time, but it was another thing to come to the injury stoppage time at 0: 0. The excited mood instantly turned into a loud deafening loud cry: "Aoao Aoao--"
Even though the Dutch fans are slightly dissatisfied with the current score, the national team is playing against the Chinese team for most of the normal game, and the Chinese team's performance is indeed very good, the defense quality is excellent, but it is also a strong Opponents also cheered and cheered.
In the injury stoppage period, the Dutch team still dominates the offense, while the Chinese team passively defends.
Time comes to stoppage time, even the powerful Dutch team does not dare to step up the offense, fearing that the Chinese team will be beaten into a quick counterattack by accident.
In the World Cup quarter-finals, no opponent should be underestimated.
Coupled with the past ninety minutes, the Chinese team's ability to show has won the respect of the Dutch stars.
Therefore, the Dutch team ’s offensive offensive is much weaker than the first ninety minutes during injury and stoppage time. The Chinese team also won the respite time until the end of the three-minute injury stoppage, and the score of 0: 0 did not change. .
In other words, the last quarter-final of the Chinese team and the Dutch team will enter overtime!
………………
"Beep ~"
With the three long whistle of the referee Marco Rodriguez, the fourth quarter-final of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil entered overtime.
The biggest difference between overtime and regular games is that there is no intermission time. The captains of both sides come directly to the referee Rodriguez to make a guess. The other players get a short replenishment time, and then change the side to play again and start the second half. .
Of course, in the precious time for players to add water, both head coaches will seize the time to supplement the players' tactics and prepare for the first half of extra time.
In the end, Tang Zheng lost the right to pick and won the kick-off right. Immediately, he reasonably used the water replenishment time to walk in front of coach Lippi.
He knew that Lippi must have a more arduous task to explain when the game came to overtime.
as predicted!
When the game came to overtime, the physical fitness of most of the teammates has decreased significantly, and the arrival rate is definitely not comparable to the regular time, so Tang Zheng, who is still full of physical fitness, has a greater defensive responsibility.
For Zheng Lipi's reasonable tactical arrangement, Tang Zheng solemnly nodded.
The Netherlands can be said to be the strongest opponent currently encountered by the national team, because the Italian team and the Chile team that played before the World Cup warm-up match are both warm-up matches. The technical and tactical content will not be very high, and the World Cup quarter-finals will be different. The ball is out and you have to be careful!
"Beep ~"
Less than five minutes from the end of the game, accompanied by a whistle of Marco Rodriguez, the first half of the extra time of the fourth quarter-final of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil announced the official start.
The Chinese team with the kick-off advantage did not rush to launch the offensive, but quickly handed it over to Tang Zheng's feet, and he handled the first offensive in the first half of overtime.
According to coach Lippi's brief explanation, at the beginning, he can be brave enough to participate in the offensive and give the Dutch team a ‘off horse power’.
Even if the goal cannot be formed in the end, it will also bring a certain deterrent to the Dutch defensive players, so that they dare not attack too brazenly in overtime.
Because the game comes to overtime, the player's physical energy consumption must be very severe, and basically comes to a personal critical point. If a goal is lost, it is very difficult to equalize the score again.
Therefore, the Chinese team with the kick-off advantage has not been oppressed by the Dutch team. The small offensive team composed of Tang Zheng, Hao Junmin, Lu Liang and Zhang Linpeng quickly escorted the football to the Dutch team to defend the 30-meter area.
"Aoao--"
For the first wave of overtime in the Chinese team's overtime, Chinese fans at the new water source stadium looked forward to it, bursting out a huge voice, cheering for the Chinese team's attack.
Coming to the 30-meter area, Tang Zheng didn't continue to move forward. He wandered around the 30-meter area and connected in the frontcourt as a midfield organizer.
But without Tang Zheng in the danger zone, the Chinese team's offense gives a feeling that it is difficult to create an absolute threat.
Hao Junmin's ability is very good, that is, he lacks the heat to deal with the timing of the ball, and the small skills at the foot are not good enough. In the face of the Dutch player's sandwich, it is easy to appear under the feet.
In the absence of a solution, Hao Junmin was prepared to resolve the attack with a long shot.
"Jun Min, five o'clock behind!"
However, at this moment, Tang Zheng's voice suddenly came behind him, and Hao Junmin didn't hesitate to use his heel to kick the ball back while he lifted his right foot.
Hao Junmin's coordination consciousness is very good, but his physical decline is obvious, the heel kick at five o'clock direction to the four o'clock direction, so Tang Zheng in high-speed running had to stretch his right foot to get the ball.
Football is enough, but Tang Zheng lost the opportunity of direct long-range shot at the first time, but also lost the suddenness.
Tang Zheng's excellent small technique is also reflected in the ball stop. Although Hao Junmin's heel kick angle is cheaper, Tang Zheng's stop distance is just right. His left foot took a step forward and then lifted his right foot. Grab a long shot before Vinaldum stepped forward to block!
"Tang Zheng--"
Yang 5 narrator He Wei shouted with a hoarse voice.
Venaldum's entire body went forward, trying to block Tang Zheng's powerful long shot with his flesh and blood.
It has to be said that Vinaldum ’s defensive attention is quite concentrated, and he gave pressure to Tang Zheng for the first time. However, Tang Zheng went from stopping the ball to shooting. The football flew to the goal before Venaldum blocked ...
However, Venaldum is not without credit, his timely blockage brought certain pressure to Tang Zheng.
Goalkeeper Silesson focused his attention and was ready to save the moment Tang Zheng lifted his right foot.
When he saw the football flying towards the top right corner of the goal, he moved quickly.
"Gasper Silesson-!!!"
Van Vincent, the Dutch national sports television commentator, exclaimed.
As soon as the words fell, he stared at the retransmission screen, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he was very surprised.
Silesson flew to the end of his body, and the fingertip of his left arm still didn't touch the football ...
And his eyes were full of panic.
The Chinese fans in the stands were obviously very excited and jumped from the seats. They never thought that the national team would create such a threat in the first attack of overtime.
After half a second, a clear voice came from Xinshuiyuan Stadium: "Boom ~"
The football hit the junction of the post on the right side of the goal and the beam, and bounced back into the field. Dutch central defender Vlar, who was in the football control area, responded quickly. He was shocked and he took the first step to push the ball out of the baseline.
"Oh oh--"
Immediately, there was a wave of exclamation in the air over the new water source stadium with dreadful Dutch fans.
At the same time, Chinese fans in the stands also made a sigh.
The live guide quickly gave Tang Zheng a close-up shot. Tang Zheng in the broadcast picture was very regretful. He dragged his hands in his hands, pursed his mouth, and then sighed.
Just a little bit worse!
Md! !
If you can score a goal in the first offensive in overtime, it is not impossible to defeat the Netherlands in a blast!
Thinking of this, Tang Zheng couldn't help but spit saliva, and then spit on the grass fiercely, in order to vent a very long shot.
Van Vincent, the Dutch national sports television commentator, exhaled a long breath and said: "God was with us at the moment just now! It and we rejected a long shot from Tang that was bound to get a long shot! It's so thrilling !!! "
Yang Wei's commentator He Wei paused for a long time before saying: "Tang Zheng's active direct shot was rejected by the goal and the post! We missed the game to the nearest opportunity to score now! What a pity!!"
Then, a close-up shot of the live guide was given to Lippi, the head coach of the Chinese team. His reaction was more intense than that of Tang Zheng. It was like a right uppercut punched by a person who was ruthlessly on the side, and the whole person went to the rear right. Throw away.
At the same time, the assistant coach Madaloni and the Litiegen Lippi responded to the broadcast, and the response was almost the same. It seemed that someone was on the face and wanted to take two steps back.
The Chinese players in front of the bench originally wanted to leap forward to celebrate the goal, but with a clear sound of bang, they knocked them back to the bench and sat down.
...
Originally, Van Gaal was going to wait for the game to look at the situation for a while before making adjustments, but Tang Zheng's long-range shot gave him a knock on the tiger and had to make adjustments in advance. Immediately ran to the warm-up area.
The live broadcast camera followed, and before the seriously warmed-up Huntelaar quickly ran back to the bench, he changed his jersey and prepared to debut.
The corner kick taken by Wu Xi did not pose a threat to West Layson. Tang Zheng failed to reach the football, which was pushed out of the penalty area by Indy.
The crisis came to an end temporarily.
Goalkeeper Silessen kicked the goal kick with a big foot. The Dutch team's attack failed to threaten Yan Junling. With Lens' long shot missed the goal post, the referee's whistle signaled the court to request a substitution.
The centre-back Indy was replaced and Huntelaar came off the bench.
With an absolute advantage, the Netherlands withdrew a central defender and added an opportunist forward. The formation then changed into a four-for-two formation with a diamond in the midfield.
It is not difficult to see that Van Gaal is very dissatisfied with the team's offense, so that in the fourth minute of overtime, substitutions were made.
Huntelaar's playing did bring great pressure to the Chinese team's back line ~ EbookFREE.me ~ But the collective backing of Tang Zheng and Hao Junmin resolved the Dutch team's continuous offensive and almost retreated to the position of central defender Tang Zheng made a series of consecutive headers to make sure that the goal was not lost.
Tang Zheng's efficiency of retreating to the position of central defender is very high, so coach Lippi's eyes brightened.
The Dutch team strengthens the number of strikers. Tang Zheng has the body and strength, a strong sense of position, and a very good ability to grab points. It can be used as a central defender in overtime.
As for the defensive midfielder, he can find an experienced player on the bench to make up for the penalty shootout.
In the tenth minute of overtime, the Chinese team made the second substitution adjustment in the match. Wan Jinyou Liujian replaced Wu Sanshi, who consumed almost as much physical energy.
While Liu Jian came off the bench, he also brought the latest tactical changes to the Chinese team. Tang Zheng later withdrew from the central defender and Liu Jian served as a defensive midfielder.
For this substitution adjustment, British Sky commentator Andy Gray was a bit uncomprehensible: "Tang is the guarantee of the Chinese team's quick counterattack. Will it be a bit wrong to put him in the position of central defender? Liu's defensive ability can actually be Competent as a central defender. "
Yang Wei, the 5th commentator, also said that he talked about his doubts: "Liu Jian is a tremendous oil in the midfield and backcourt, and he is fully qualified as a central defender. Tang Zheng has really performed well in the central defender position in the past few minutes, but he is a Chinese The key to the team's offensive and defensive conversion is that the position is too late, it is difficult to organize an effective attack ... "
In fact, Lippi is no longer thinking about offense now, he hopes the game can enter the penalty shootout.
Instead of pinning hope on a quick counterattack, it is better to wait for a penalty shootout.
That's more practical!
Tang Zheng also played quite well in the position of central defender. He faced the Dutch team for several consecutive threat attacks.
At the end of the first half of overtime, the score is still 0: 0.
