Chapter 284(2/5)
"It's over. The Thai team is far stronger than we imagined. Luo Wu will be laughed at. There is no hope of winning ten goals..."
"It's impossible to win ten goals, but we still have a chance to score ten goals..."
The Thai players on the court celebrated wildly, and everyone except the goalkeeper ran towards Dangda.
He became a hero on the court.
Teammate Tristan lifted him up as if worshiping their country's god.
Falling behind three times and equalizing the score three times, how can such a Thai team not make people look at them.
The Chinese team underestimated their opponents, and as a result, they were evenly matched with you. They also created many opportunities and were quite tenacious.
"A little bitter, a little helpless."
"How should I put it? Maybe it's not that the Thai team is too strong, but that we are too weak? In fact, our midfield and backcourt can't hold on, so it's normal to lose points."
"This also shows that the reason why we were defeated by the Thai team 5:1 six years ago was not an accident. Their level has just improved, and we are constantly regressing."
"What we improved is on the offensive end, but there is actually no difference on the defensive end..."
"Lippi is a World Cup-winning coach and the coach of Italy. It is impossible for him to have no defensive measures. I think he has tried his best, but the defense is like this. What can be done..."
But when the camera showed the players on the field, everyone's demeanor didn't look that bad, as if the ball was thrown as a matter of course?
If this had happened before, everyone might have cursed or become dejected.
This also shows that the offensive end has brought some changes to everyone's mentality. Maybe everyone has the same idea as Zhang Lu said just now - I can't defend, but I can score goals, and I score more goals than you.
Then I won the final game!
But Lippi was very unhappy.
Lippi grabbed his white hair and walked around the court, inexplicably thinking of those naturalized players again.
Only by naturalizing players in the midfield and backcourt can the Chinese team become a strong Chinese team.
Otherwise, we will still lose ugly when we go to the world competition...
beep,
The whistle sounded again.
As soon as the Chinese team kicked the ball out, the Thai team pressed forward. Every player was like a part in a precision-operated machine. They not only pressed the whole court, but also conducted man-to-man defense.
Such cohesion is rare. The Korean team also showed such cohesion when they played against the South Korean team in the group stage.
But now the Thai team is even worse.
This style of play is what the Chinese team hates the most. Chinese players can't stand the opponent's pressure and pressing.
Once pressed by the opponent, they cannot hold the ball. This is a long-standing problem of the Chinese team.
Now the midfield and frontcourt are fine, those guys can hold the ball. It's the backcourt that's holding them back. After the four defenders in the backcourt take the ball, they will never dare to take the ball calmly again under the pressure of the opponent.
In the end, I chose to go big.
As a result, Shi Ke took the initiative to hand over the ball to the opponent.
Now the Thai team's attack is coming again. These guys still have the physical ability to sprint, and their physical reserves are obviously better than those of the Chinese team.
Except for the two central defenders who did not come up, the two full-backs came up one on the left and one on the right, suppressing the Chinese team in their own half.
Zheng Zhi, Xu Xin and Huang Bowen were exhausted in the midfield and were stunned to let the opponent pass through the triangle.
At some point, Thai Messi ran to the right to assist. Huang Bowen and Wei Shihao appeared in front of him at the same time. They directly closed the door to defend and finally stopped Thai Messi.
But there was a foul and the referee blew the whistle.
Unexpectedly, Thai Messi immediately got up and made an arc with his right foot!
sneak attack.
The cunning Thai actually learned this trick that Luo Wu often played. When the Chinese team's attention was not focused enough, he immediately took the initiative and passed the ball covertly to the left side of the Chinese team's penalty area.
At this time, Zhang Linpeng was actually lowering his head to tie his shoelaces!
What was this guy thinking? As a result, Tristan rushed behind him and easily unloaded the ball at his feet without anyone watching.
Wang Dalei had ten thousand grass and mud horses running through his heart.
He really didn't expect Zhang Linpeng to be such an amateur. At such a critical moment, he didn't observe his opponent, but lowered his head to tie his shoelaces. Was his head kicked by a donkey?!
Wang Dalei's nightmare reappeared, and when Tristan started to knock on the door, he even turned the other way.
The ball went straight to the lower left corner of the goal, and the score actually became 4:3.
Beep!
The referee's whistle sounded very timely, and the Chinese fans in the audience were instantly stunned. They did not expect to lose two goals in three minutes, and in such a disgusting way.
Just as he was about to yell at Zhang Linpeng, the linesman raised his flag.
The goal was invalid because it was offside.
Tristan, who scored the goal, spread his hands and couldn't believe his eyes. He clearly got behind Zhang Linpeng from behind. How could it be offside?
This was definitely a misjudgment. He immediately rushed to the referee, preparing to protest.
The referee didn't actually understand it, but he did see the linesman raise his flag and quickly communicated with the linesman through the microphone.
Then I finally figured out the situation.
Tristan was not offside, but Dangda, who was not far away, was offside.
At the moment when Messi from Thailand kicked the ball, Dangda was in an offside position, so there was no problem with this penalty.
If Dangda had not run toward the ball at that time, then the offside would not exist. The problem was that he ran away.
"Offside!"
"Oh my god, luckily Dangda was offside, otherwise the Chinese team would have fallen behind. If the score had become 3:4, it would have been ugly."
"It's just a little bit off."
"If it doesn't work, just replace Zhang Linpeng in the second half. Don't stay on the court if your condition is not good. Any new player who comes up may be better than him."
Although Zhang Linpeng just scored the second goal, his poor performance on the defensive line has once again aroused everyone's doubts.
Although the fans at the scene did not scold him or boo him, everyone's emotions had obviously reached the extreme.
Captain Zheng Zhi walked towards Zhang Linpeng and chatted with him for a few words without expression.
He was already very restrained and almost wanted to curse.
As a veteran player, is it okay to play like this?
The team's ace Luo Wu stood in front and just shook his head helplessly. Although he knew that the Chinese team's defense was very bad, it still made him feel a little sick when this happened again and again.
A beautiful game was ruined by them again.
Looking back, I wonder how many media outlets ridiculed him.
It seems impossible for me to play a comfortable game.
The Chinese team luckily escaped, but there was not much time left in the game.
Wang Dalei didn't dare to take a big shot this time. When he saw Zheng Zhi returning to the penalty area, he simply passed the ball to Zheng Zhi.
Zheng Zhi held the ball steadily. Although the Thai players immediately pounced on him, Subachai came behind him immediately, but Zheng Zhi's action in protecting the ball was quite standard. He spread his legs and occupied enough space one after the other.
The space was stuck and the position was blocked, giving Subachai no chance to overstep.
Suba guessed that he couldn't grab it, so he could only stretch out his left foot and forcefully hook it forward, knocking Zheng Zhi down.
In fact, it is very dangerous for Zheng Zhi to take the ball like this. Logically speaking, he should pass it back, but another Thai player Dangda has already ran towards the goalkeeper. At the same time, Feng Xiaoting's direction was also noticed by the opponent. Zheng Zhi
It is impossible for Zhi to handle the ball.
He can only handle the ball by himself, but if it were another player to do so, it might be quite dangerous and he might not be able to protect the ball. Now the Thai team player committed a foul.
The ball still belongs to the Chinese team.
Luo Wu is back again. His behavior is obvious, because he is approaching Zheng Zhi, and Zheng Zhi kicks the ball to him without thinking.
It's different when he gets the ball, he shows his attitude.
The Thai player did not dare to neglect and immediately ran up. Tristan was the first to rush to him, followed closely by another player Tidybon.
Luo Wu, however, used the instep of his outside foot and cut the ball towards Huang Bowen at the far end. He chose to trust his teammates.
The ball was moved very beautifully, and he himself cut inside to the center, keeping a very close distance from Zheng Zhi.
The opponent had a bit of a headache defending. Huang Bowen did not hand the ball back to Zheng Zhi, nor to Luo Wu, but to Wei Shihao.
The opponent's midfield defense was thrown into disarray and there were loopholes.
Wei Shihao returned to Zheng Zhi.
At this time, no Thai players came up to intercept Zheng Zhi.
Wei Shihao and Luo Wu advanced forward at the same time on his left and right sides, which made the Thai team players quite uncomfortable. Dana Bang and Thidi Bang chose to mark Wei Shihao and Luo Wu respectively.
The task of disturbing Zheng Zhi could only be left to Songkrasin. Songkrasin chased Zheng Zhi all the way from the frontcourt. However, he did not force a kick. Instead, he gritted his teeth and took a step forward, trying to cut into Zheng Zhi.
