Chapter 113 Just kick it like this!
No matter how angry the Chinese fans are, they cannot change the current result. The Chinese team was indeed awarded a penalty kick, and it was not changed because of Gao Zheng's injury.
Although Gao Zheng did not suffer any serious injuries, the penalty kick still made Chinese fans very upset.
A penalty kick that shouldn't have...
However, perhaps it is precisely because of this penalty that when Hazaz personally took the penalty, he was judged by Chinese goalkeeper Wang Xiaolei and blocked the football out of the sideline with his legs!
"Okay! Wang Xiaolei! Beautiful save! He saved this penalty from Saudi Arabia!!! Happy birthday to Wang Xiaolei! Yes, today happened to be his 26th birthday!! He used this save to give himself the best birthday gift!"
The moment Wang Xiaolei saved the penalty, Wu Lei turned around and looked at Gao Zheng with surprise, because Gao Zheng had said before that maybe the ball would be saved by Wang Xiaolei?
Gao Zheng shrugged: "It is impossible for them to enter if they shouldn't."
Other Chinese players rushed into the penalty area and hugged Wang Xiaolei to celebrate.
Saudi Arabian head coach Kosmin Olaroyu on the sidelines seemed very dissatisfied and threw away the tactical board in his hand.
They missed the best chance to equalize the score!
※※※
Wang Xiaolei's penalty save raised the morale of the Chinese team again and calmed down the hearts of the people. Now the Chinese team is still leading 1:0.
Ren Xing, who just made a mistake, even jumped up and headed the ball while attacking. Obviously, he was trying to get out of the psychological shadow of the penalty kick that he made just now.
Saudi Arabia is getting more and more impatient. Their right back Sayed smashed the ball to the ground because he was dissatisfied with the referee's penalty and was warned by the referee.
In the 69th minute, Saudi Arabia made a mistake in passing the ball in the midfield, and Wu Xi suddenly intercepted the ball successfully.
This is an excellent opportunity for the Chinese team to fight back.
He thought of sending the football straight to Gao Zheng.
While receiving the ball, Gao Zheng gently poked the football forward, and jumped up to avoid Omar who was tackled!
"Chance!!"
Another Saudi Arabian central defender, Osama, chased Gao Zheng reluctantly.
The two rushed into the penalty area together.
Osama's entire body was pressing towards Gao Zheng, hoping to squeeze out Gao Zheng's center of gravity, make him make mistakes, or interfere with his shot.
But although Gao Zheng is thin and tall, after being baptized by the European League, his current strength is no longer the same as before. Although he does not belong to the kind of player who is very good at physical confrontation, it is impossible to squeeze him away like this.
After resisting Osama's collision, he decisively shot!
This was a low shot, and the football rushed towards the goal quickly against the turf...the far corner!
Although Saudi Arabian goalkeeper Walid made a save, he judged the wrong direction. He turned to the near corner, and the football passed him by the other side!
He failed to touch the football, no one touched the football, and the football rushed into the goal from a far corner!
"Scoring twice! Scoring twice! Gao Zheng scored twice! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!" He Ping whistled excitedly.
After the Chinese team suffered an unfair punishment, Gao Zheng's ball seemed particularly angry.
So He Ping was also particularly excited when he saw the football fly into the Saudi Arabian goal.
"Beautiful!!!" Xu Yang next to him was not much better than him. "Just just play like this! No matter how the penalty is, you have to save your penalty, you will also score another one! Gao Zheng is so good! Awesome!!"
He almost got impulsive and shouted out the word "awesome".
※※※
After shooting, Gao Zheng lost his balance and slid and rushed out. After seeing the goal, he got up from the ground, sprinted over the billboard, rushed to the bottom of the stands where Chinese fans gathered at the back of the stadium, shouting at them.
The Chinese fans in the stands responded to him with the warmest applause.
The strong emotions built a bridge between the stands and Gao Zheng, making them feel connected.
In front of Gao Zheng, every Chinese fan in the stands was filled with a ecstatic face. Their faces were painted with five-star red flags. Because of the twisted facial muscles, the national flag seemed to flutter in the wind on their faces.
They waved their fists to Gao Zheng and shouted hard: "Good like this! Gao Zheng is good like this!"
"Awesome!! So fucking awesome! Gao Zheng is awesome!"
"Long live China! Long live China!"
The Brisbane Stadium is not a comprehensive stadium. Without running, there was only a baffle between the stands and the turf area. Gao Zheng could hear all the words they shouted in front of Gao Zheng clearly.
This is a completely different scene from what he played in the club.
Whether in Sampdoria or Atletico Madrid, he would hear the shouts of fans after scoring the goal. He could understand Italian and Spanish now, so he could understand the fans yelling at him.
But this is completely different from the roars he hears in his native language today.
Every player is eager to play for the country, wear the national team's jersey and become a national hero, perhaps because of the scene in front of him.
A feeling rushed straight up to Gao Zheng's head, and he raised his hand and patted the Chinese team logo in front of his heart.
This action seemed to ignite the Chinese fans in the audience. The huge cheers quickly spread with the stand in front of him as the center, like a fierce shock wave.
Fourteen thousand Chinese fans who came to watch the game on site moved the Brisbane Stadium to China.
While the Chinese team was celebrating the goal, the commentator of Saudi Arabia TV said sourly: "Look at Gao's speed just now and his strength when he shot, it's completely impossible to tell that he was kicked before..."
The implicit meaning that Gao Zheng was just pretending to fall...
However, the penalty kick was not cancelled just now. It was Hazaz, the "Chinese nemesis", who could not kick the penalty kick in?
※※※
Perrin celebrated the goal with his colleagues on the sidelines.
He was indeed worried that other Chinese players could not keep up with Gao Zheng's pace, which made him too dependent on Gao Zheng.
But now looking at Gao Zheng’s performance, what if he depends on it?
When you have such an excellent player in your hands, aren’t you stupid to not rely on him and not to exert his role to the extreme?
Amid the huge cheers of Chinese fans throughout the game, the outcome of this game has lost its suspense.
Although there are twenty minutes left in the game, even the Saudi Arabian players themselves may not believe that they can still tie the score by chasing two goals in front of Gao Zheng.
