Chapter 260: A Thunderous Blow
"Audience friends, fans and friends, good evening, I am Huang Jianxiang, welcome to the 2005 World Youth Championship in the Netherlands semifinals of the Chinese national youth team VS Argentina national youth team ......"
"Forget the defeat of the national football team and cheer for the youth team tonight."
"It's just one step away from the final."
"Stepping over the mountains of Argentina is the final! Whether the game was a success or a failure, our youngsters have done their best, they have given us an epic football journey, and now let's continue to witness another miracle! ”
"Come on! National Youth Players! ”
"Argentina continued their starting line-up from the previous game, with Ustari in goal, Cabral in defence, Vermica, Barroso and Torres in defence, Paletta, Zabaletta, Cardoso and Gago in midfield and Messi and Sergio Aguero in front."
"On the side of the national youth team, the goalkeeper is Zeng Cheng, the defenders are Zheng Tao, Zhao Ming, Feng Xiaoting and Tan Wangsong, Huang Bowen, Chen Tao and Zhou Haibin in the midfield, and the forwards are Mao Jianqing, Dong Fangzhuo and Hao Junmin."
"Compared with the first half, Crouchen only made one adjustment, that is, Huang Bowen was used to start, and Zhao Xuri sat on the bench."
"The referee blows the whistle and the game begins!"
"Argentina are full of stars and they have just beaten Spain, the favourites to win the title. Messi in the team is the brightest star in this World Youth Championship, he has won four consecutive bests, and today he is also the player who poses the greatest threat to China, hey, Huang Bowen approached Messi, does he want to focus on Messi? ”
"Well, it takes someone to keep an eye on Messi, otherwise it will be a disaster to let his little flea rush. On the Chinese team's side, Mao Jianqing and Hao Junmin's positions seem to be a little different from the previous games, they are very close to the middle, and it seems that today's lineup is not 433, but more like 4321. In doing so, it reduces the power of the wide attack, but strengthens the defensive depth of the midfield. ”
I believe that such a change of formation is carefully considered by Crouchen, Mao Jianqing and Hao Junmin go to the middle to collect, which can protect Chen Tao in defense and respond to Chen Tao's pass in time in attack. In this way, Chen Tao's role is a bit similar to Andrea Pirlo in the AC Milan lineup......"
"Originally, the world fans were expecting the last defending champion Brazil and Argentina to meet in the semi-finals, after all, Brazil and Argentina are both four-time world junior champions, but the Chinese team has mixed everything, and now the Chinese team is facing four-time Argentina."
At the beginning, Argentina launched an attack on the hinterland of the Chinese team, and they stretched the lineup very wide, which happened to hit the two wings of the Chinese team.
The reason why Krauchen chose 4321 is equivalent to giving up the wing to Argentina. The main reason is that Argentina has no future if they play wide crosses, because Argentina's height cannot be compared with the Chinese team at all, and Krauchen is worried about the defense in the middle, so he will gather enough manpower in the middle to snipe them.
Sure enough, Argentina quickly got a cross opportunity on the side, but after the ball flew into the big penalty area, it was immediately cleared by Zhao Ming's header. Zhou Haibin continued to jump, beat Cardoso, and pushed the ball forward again, and the Chinese players grabbed the first point with two high balls.
The ball fell near the halfway line, and at this time, Chen Tao and Gago were very hopeful of getting the ball! Both men rushed towards the ball, but neither was fast enough to get the ball. Gago's steps were obviously bigger than Chen Tao's, and he was about to rush to the ball first.
Chen Tao gritted his teeth.
Fuck you, he just fell to the ground and slid the shovel.
Just as Gago was about to touch the ball, he took the first step with his right foot to scoop it away.
Depend on! Gago scolded, but he didn't expect Chen Tao to be so ruthless, he didn't run as fast as him, so he directly tackled.
You know, Gago has been favored by Real Madrid in the World Youth Championships, and it is rumored that he is likely to join Real Madrid in the future.
Gago has been a midfielder since he was a child, and unlike the "No. 5" who is powerful and fierce in his tackles, the showy and clear-looking Gago wins with skill. With a height of 1.78m and a weight of 65kg, Gago with long hair looks more like a commanding artist on the court, as he himself says, "I have the ability to snatch the ball from the opponent's feet, even if I don't rely on the strength of the opponent".
However, this time he planted ......
Gago, who is known as Redondo's successor, was frightened by Chen Tao in order to protect himself from injury.
Fack!
At the moment when Chen Tao shoveled over, he instinctively dodged away, and when he regained his position, Chen Tao had already climbed up and passed the ball out!
One front waist, one back waist, the performance is a world of difference, just because the two people have different levels of bravery.
In fact, Chen Tao has never been ruthless, but this time in the World Youth Championships, he was really driven by the blood of his teammates, and it was purely a subconscious reaction just now.
The ball passed by Chen Tao is generally rarely passed to the feet of his teammates, but to the front of his teammates, as long as his teammates are willing to run, he can basically send a beautiful ball.
And Mao Jianqing is the beneficiary at this time, Mao Jianqing's mind has always been on the midfield, waiting for his teammates' pass at any time......
Chen Tao's kick directly penetrated Argentina's right side, and Argentine captain Zabaleta originally wanted to remind Gago of two sentences, but he didn't expect Chen Tao's pass to be passed behind Argentina so quickly. Regardless of this situation, he had no way to help Torris, and Mao Jianqing grabbed the ball in a position.
Then Mao Jianqing swept the ball to the middle without looking, but Argentine central defender Cabral took the first step to shovel the ball out of the bottom line.
Corner kick!
Argentina really learned the defensive tactics of the Brazilian team's central defenders, and the two of them wrapped up to defend Dong Fangzhuo, the one in front was responsible for jamming the position and cleaning the passing ball at all times, and the one in the back was responsible for harassing Dong Fangzhuo while blocking Dong Fangzhuo's forward route......
This trick really worked, but the Chinese team still got the first corner, Feng Xiaoting ran up from behind and stood beside Dong Fangzhuo, Mao Jianqing ran to the front point, and Zhou Haibin was the back point.
Huang Bowen wanted to run in front of the big penalty area, but he still chose to stand behind Messi, he must always remember that his task is only to guard Messi!
The captain of Argentina glanced at Dong Fangzhuo, but still clinged to Dong Fangzhuo, although the two Argentine teammates were standing next to Dong Fangzhuo, he was still a little uneasy.
In addition, Feng Xiaoting is also in the big forbidden area, so he has to keep an extra eye.
Just in time, Dong Fangzhuo sneered in his heart, as soon as Zabaleta came over, he just took away three high-point players......
In the end, Zabaleta and Cabral switched positions, Cabral changed to Feng Xiaoting, and Zabaleta grabbed Dong Fangzhuo's arm.
It's useless to grab your arm!
"Who will the Chinese team look for in corners? The Chinese players have a height advantage, which is a good opportunity to score, but it seems that there are too few troops to commit. ”
It was too late, but it was too soon, Hao Junmin took a corner kick on the left side, and the ball flew around a huge arc into the Argentina penalty area.
At the moment when Hao Junmin took the ball, Dong Fangzhuo instantly rushed to the day before yesterday, Zabaleta grabbed Dong Fangzhuo's arm tightly, but he couldn't let Dong Fangzhuo rush up. Another teammate was stuck in front of Dong Fangzhuo first.
But the ball doesn't come any way!
The ball flew down the middle.
Feng Xiaoting jumped up in the air, Dong Fangzhuo had already cleared the enemy's high point for him, he jumped calmly, just deal with Cabral's high point.
They are all central defenders, but Cabrral's starting height is not as high as Feng Xiaoting! Moreover, Cabral is not as old as captain Zabaleta, which makes Feng Xiaoting jump very comfortably.
Knock –
Feng Xiaoting's head slammed into the ball.
With a bang, the ball went into the net.
"The ball is in!"
"The ball went in !!"
"Feng Xiaoting!"
"Feng Xiaoting scored his first goal of this tournament!"
"Thunder strike! Feng Xiaoting's thunderous blow! ”
"No, a thunderbolt."
