315 Advance to the quarterfinals [The fourth update of the heart, ask for a monthly pass]
In the twenty-seventh minute of the game, the Chinese team launched an attack on the right side.
Chen Tao made an imaginative backheel lob down the right flank and was fiercely tackled by the opposition's No.14 Reinhard, earning China a free-kick from the edge of the 30-metre zone.
Reinhard also received a yellow card from the referee.
Chen Tao was not injured, and quickly got up from the ground and gestured to Yang Yang from a distance that he was fine.
This is a set-piece from a long distance, and if you want to directly threaten the goal, it is simply impossible, you can only play tactical coordination.
Chen Tao quickly sent a free kick and picked the ball directly to the right side of the front of the penalty area.
Gao Lin ran over to answer with understanding, and under the pressure of the German team's defenders, he stopped the ball with his chest very steadily, and without waiting for the ball to land, he passed back to Zhou Haibin, who came up in the midfield to respond.
Zhou Haibin stopped, and then divided into the left rib.
From the beginning of the game to the present, Yang Yang has not had many opportunities.
He has always been the target of the German team's close defense, and although Crouchen switched him to the left side, the German team immediately adjusted the defensive focus, which made Yang Yang limited everywhere.
But this time it was different, and the ball quickly shifted from the right to the left after the transition of the center forward Gobayashi.
The moment Yang Yang received the ball from Zhou Haibin, he had already started and quickly cut diagonally into the front of the penalty area from the left rib.
"Zhou Haibin divides the ball to the left side ......"
"Yang Yang catches the ball, there is a chance!"
At the edge of the penalty area, Yang Yang just received the ball, and the opposing central defender Marvin Matip immediately got close to him and blocked him with his body.
As a player of African descent, Matip has dual citizenship of Cameroon and Germany, and is only 1.84 meters tall, but his body is very strong, especially the strong muscles of that body.
As soon as he was approached by Matip, Yang Yang felt as if he had hit a wall, and he felt like he was being rebounded, which made his pace with the ball under his feet also messed up, but he was mentally prepared, reacted quickly, and adjusted in time.
After Matip's first contact, he already knew that he had a chance, and he immediately wanted to come up and grab it again.
But Yang Yang blocked him with his body and controlled the ball with his right foot.
Matip is right-footed, with his back to the goal, while Yang Yang is facing the goal sideways, facing the right, and is also controlling the ball with his right foot, which makes it impossible to grab it between his right foot and the ball, separated by Yang Yang's body.
On the contrary, it was Yang Yang, after adjusting his pace, he quickly took the ball to the middle, and the whole person started quickly.
After more than half a year of strength training, Yang Yang has not only developed a body of muscles and upper body strength, but his explosiveness has also been improved.
The same is true against Matip this time.
In front of goal behind Matip, Adler stood on the left, staring at team-mate Matip's back.
From this point of view, he had no way to see Yang Yang, but he was always like a great enemy, and he didn't dare to relax in the slightest.
But in the blink of an eye, he saw a figure suddenly pop out in front of Matip, and then he heard a thud, which was obviously the sound of a kick shot.
Adler reacted almost instantly, almost reflexively following the movement and direction of Yang Yang's swing leg, and flew to the left side, that is, the right side of the goal.
The German goalkeeper spread his left arm as far as he could, allowing his body to stretch as far as he could.
He could clearly feel the touch coming from the tips of his left fingers.
Touched the ball!
But just as Adler was in ecstasy, a wave of despair followed.
The long-term training as a goalkeeper has made his sense of touch very sharp, and he clearly feels that it is the feeling of the tips of his fingers touching the ball.
He was powerless to stop the ball from going into the net!
……
"The ball is in!!!"
"Twenty-eighth minute, twenty-eighth minute!"
"Oh my God, Yang Yang! It's Yang Yang again! ”
"He stepped up again and in the 28th minute, with a right-footed shot from the edge of the box, he found the German goal!"
"It was definitely a very sudden kick in the goal, and although the German goalkeeper Adler reacted quickly and made a save, he still couldn't prevent the ball from going into the net, 1-0!"
……
Yang Yang just flashed a trace of gap from Matip, and hit directly without hesitation.
Germany has always had no shortage of high-level goalkeepers, and their ability to develop goalkeepers is too strong, and from the nearly half hour before this game, Adler's ability and reaction are indeed quite good, which can be called top.
In the face of such a goalkeeper, you can only catch him off guard, give him enough time to react, and don't expect to score.
Because of this, the angle of the ball is not too good, but it is too sudden, the strength is very strong, and the speed is very fast, although Adler reacted and dialed the ball, but he still scored a goal!
After Yang Yang scored, he quickly turned around and rushed to his teammates, the first one ran to Gao Lin, and then firmly grabbed Zhou Haibin with his other hand, and the three of them celebrated happily under the noses of the German players.
1 to 0, now the situation is in favor of the Chinese team!
As long as you score a goal, you are afraid that the German team's defense will counterattack!
…………

"Gao Lin!"
Alihan sat in the stands, silently reciting the name he had only remembered during the World Junior Championships.
In the past year, he has been working hard to find a suitable center forward partner for Yang Yang, but he has never been able to find a player that satisfies him, but at the World Youth Championships in the Netherlands, he suddenly found this good seedling.
'He's a good centre-forward, he's smart and he's pretty good at his feet. Assistant coach Dejan nodded.
"I selected him for the national team after the World Youth Championships and let him try it when he played Japan away." Alihan made up his mind.
This time the away game against Japan was scheduled for August, not the national team break.
When Alihan negotiated with Ajax before, he was clearly rejected by the other party, because the Chinese team had already qualified ahead of schedule, and it was not necessary to recruit Yang Yang to return to China to play at this time.
When talking to Yang Yang, Yang Yang also said that he would respect Ajax's arrangement.
Yang Yang has always had some regrets due to his absence from the team last season, which has affected the team's performance, and the team is determined to perform in the Champions League this season, so he does not plan to participate in the World Preliminary Tournament in August.
To put it bluntly, that game is meaningless to the Chinese team.
Whether it is Alihan or the Football Association, they are very aware that this game is more of a training nature than a result.
On the contrary, it is very important to Japan and Iran, so the football associations of the two countries have also come to China to carry out public relations, one side hopes that the Chinese team will release the water, and the other side hopes that the Chinese team will do its best to snipe, and it is best to recruit Yang Yang and other foreign generals back to fight.
The Chinese Football Association is now smart and is trying to take advantage of it.
There's no way, I've suffered a lot of losses before, and now it's rare to have an opportunity to take advantage, so how can I miss it?
And recruiting a few more players who have strength and conform to the team's tactical style of play will undoubtedly be in line with Alihan's plan to compete in the World Cup next year.
Especially to select a suitable center partner for Yang Yang as soon as possible.
…………
…………
After being scored by the Chinese team, the German team began to lose its breath.
After only 30 minutes of play, the goal was conceded, so how could the German team keep going?
So, after conceding the goal, the German team began to be more proactive in pressing up.
Yang Yang communicated with Hao Junmin and Zhou Haibin, and retreated appropriately to let the German team press out some.
As long as the Germans are willing to press out, there will be space behind them.
Crouchen, who was on the sidelines, apparently made the same calculation, and immediately signaled the players to retreat appropriately and maintain the overall formation.
After conceding the goal, the young players of the German team began to be a little impatient, coupled with the active contraction of the Chinese team, they immediately began to press out, especially in the midfield, and frequently pressed the midfield.
The changes in the German team did create more pressure on the Chinese midfield, but at the same time, as Yang Yang said, there was a bigger gap in the backline.
In the forty-third minute of the game, the German team pressed over the middle line as a whole to press, and after the Chinese team passed continuously, Gao Lin leaned on the German team's players again at the front point and returned the ball to Hao Junmin.
Hao Junmin quickly stepped forward, received the ball, and sent it to the back of the German team's central defender Matip.
Yang Yang slid in as quickly as he could, caught up with the ball and went straight to the penalty area.
Matip chased after Yang Yang all the way, trying to cooperate with goalkeeper Adler to stop Yang Yang.
But after rushing to the front of the small penalty area, Yang Yang suddenly picked up a pass with his left foot, and Chen Tao followed up and easily pushed the goal from close range.
This kick is definitely a selfless gift from Yang Yang!
You must know that in the national youth team, Yang Yang has the right to fire freely, which is the right given to him by head coach Crouchen.
In the case just now, Yang Yang had no problem hitting the door by himself, but he resolutely chose Chen Tao, who was in a better position and more confident, which shows his selflessness.
Therefore, after Chen Tao scored a goal, he was the first to rush to Yang Yang.
This assist is very exciting, and it is also very ingenious, Chen Tao does not have any defenders around him, all he needs to do is to push the facts, and he doesn't even need to push it right, as long as it is not pushed too far, then this goal will definitely be scored!
This is almost like Yang Yang selflessly giving him a goal, how can he not be grateful?
Yang Yang didn't care very much, he was more interested in whether the team could win, and Chen Tao's position just now was indeed better.
Maybe it's a bit unselfish to do that, but that's Yang Yang's style.
He has always believed that if he passes the ball to his teammates, his teammates will pass the ball to him, whether it is at Ajax, or in the national team, or now in the national youth team, he believes so.
What's more, he has already scored five goals at the World Youth Championships and leads the scorer charts.
…………
…………
Chen Tao's goal completely shattered all hopes for the German team.
Even after the second half of the rematch, the German team began to play more actively, but it was never able to break through the Chinese team's goal, and the back line led by Feng Xiaoting performed very well in this game and did not give the German team too good a chance.
In the end, the Chinese team defeated Germany 2-0 and successfully advanced to the quarterfinals.
