Chapter 182: Long live the Chinese team

"Beautiful!!! The ball went in!! Strike!!!! Duan Xuan screamed loudly.

"After Li Qingshan attracted the attention of most of the defense, he passed a very beautiful through ball! Yu Chao's shot is also quite perfect!! ”

When the football flew into the goal, the Chinese fans jumped on the pitch and in front of the television.

Australian stadiums have completely turned into a sea of Chinese fans.

After the goal, Yu Chao was also very excited, this was a goal in the Asian Cup final. He turned his head to point at Li Qingshan, who was assisting him, and Li Qingshan had already roared angrily and rushed to him, hugging the relatively petite Yu Chao.

It's two to zero!

What does such a score mean. It's all very clear to all. Especially at the end of the first half.

This score is undoubtedly a very fatal blow for the host Australian team.

When the Australian fans scored the goal, they all looked at the Chinese celebrating on the field in confusion, and for them, it was difficult to accept this fact for a while, so they could only be silent at the moment.

At the Australian stadium at the moment, the Chinese have become the absolute protagonists on the field, whether in the stands or on the playing field. The five-star red flag flew over the Australian stadium.

Australia's head coach Postekglou was furious at the conceded goal and rushed to the sidelines, yelling until the fourth official reminded the red-faced Australian to return to his area.

In Postekglou's view, let Li Qingshan dribble all the way to the front of the penalty area, and then plug behind him to create a chance for a one-on-one goal. Jedinak tried to foul several times but couldn't, and the other Australian players didn't interfere with Li Qingshan. Li Qingshan was like a heavy tank all the way to the front with the ball from the back, and such a loss of the ball was too big a blow to the team's morale, so he was so angry.

If the Australian team is only one goal down, Postekglou is not too worried, because from the situation in the first half, the Australian team is the side that controlled the game, but only one goal down, they still have a lot of hope to come back.

But the opposition is already two goals ahead at the moment, and both goals are achieved by the individual ability of the star, which is too much for Australia to bear.

That's the benefit of having a superstar on your team, and when the team as a whole is being suppressed, a sudden flash of star can lead to a victory.

Li Qingshan is doing this now, the Chinese team does not have many offensive opportunities, and is suppressed by the Australian team as a whole, but it is the Chinese team that has been at a disadvantage who has taken a two-goal lead at the moment.

The first half of the game ended quickly after the goal.

The Australians walked off the pitch with their heads down, some with confused expressions on their faces. When two goals are behind, it is inevitable that some players will have the idea of "this game is going to be lost", which is also human nature, the difference between the two goals is very delicate on the football field, too much, not too little.

And the players of the Chinese team did not have an easy time when they walked off the field, although they led by two goals in the first half, but in the hand-to-hand combat with the Australians, many players have been hit with blue and purple at the moment.

The way Australians play football as if it were rugby is really stressful.

However, the two-goal lead still gave them confidence. Although many players were rubbing their blackened bodies, they couldn't hide the smiles on their faces. Australia now need to score three goals to win, and we only need to hold on to a two-goal lead in the second half, and even if we can take advantage of a counter-attack and score a third, we can basically seal the win.

Both teams returned to the locker room with different moods.

……..

In the locker room of the Chinese team, some players couldn't wait to cheer.

But when Lippi came in, he had a straight face.

When the players were quiet, he said: "Do you think it's time to celebrate, do you need to pop some champagne?" ”

The smiles on the players' faces slowly turned serious.

The meme of "opening champagne" is a household name in football circles. On the night of Istanbul, AC Milan celebrated with champagne at half-time after leading 3-0, only to be overturned by Liverpool in the second half.

Lessons learned, the players realised that it was far from the end of the game.

They still need to fight for another forty-five minutes before they can finally celebrate their victory.

Rejoice now, maybe it's too early.

………..

Immediately after the start of the second half, Lippi made a substitution, he replaced Yue Hai and replaced Cai Hui to strengthen the defensive hardness of the midfield, Cai Hui is a physical defensive midfielder, and his body does not suffer too much against the Australian.

The overall rhythm of this game is in the hands of the Australians, and the overall strength of the Chinese team is not as good as others, and it is too difficult to regain control.

The Australians want to play muscle tactics, and the Chinese team can only respond.

At the beginning of the second half, the South Korean team launched a fierce attack on the Chinese team's defense. The opening five minutes are the easiest stage to score, and the Australian certainly won't let that opportunity go.

But the Chinese team has long been prepared, and in the face of the impact of the Australians, the players of the Chinese team are like playing chicken blood at the moment, and they are fearless in physical confrontation with the Australians.

After the first five minutes, the Chinese team regained some possession.

Australia is not a strong team in the world, and it is good that they can sustain five minutes of such an onslaught of attack. Australia's players also need to slow down a bit and adjust a bit after a burst of onslaught.

No game can be played to the end.

Li Qingshan is undoubtedly Australia's biggest threat.

As soon as he got the ball, the Australians in the field booed him. But as soon as they got up, the Chinese fans, who were completely equal to the Australians, burst into deafening cheers.

And during this time, Li Qingshan also took the ball a lot of times, and the fans on both sides fought with each other, knowing that their voices were hoarse.

The Chinese team was not in a hurry to attack, and in the absence of a good opportunity to move forward, Li Qingshan protected the ball after taking the ball, passed the ball to each other with his teammates, and kept running to receive the ball.

During this time, Li Qingshan was more like a midfielder.

If the Australian wants to steal the ball from Li Qingshan's feet without fouling, there is basically not much chance of success. But in the rush to attack, the Australian team's movements began to get bigger and bigger.

It's just that every time they foul, Li Qingshan can always advance a round with the ball.

When Jedinak stretched out his foot again and tripped Li Qingshan to the ground, before he knew it, the Chinese team had advanced the battle line to the half of the Australian team.

For the Chinese team, this position is a position where you can directly bombard the opponent's penalty area.

As the two players with the best footwork in the team, Hao Junmin and Huang Bowen stood in front of the ball and discussed how to take the penalty.

And Li Qingshan, Feng Xiaoting, Zhang Linpeng, Mei Fang and other tall men killed in the Australian team's penalty area.

This is the first time that the Chinese team has been given a positioning opportunity in the front court in this game, and in the first half of the game, the Chinese team did not even get a corner kick - you can imagine how badly they were suppressed by the Australian team.

The Australian team is like a big enemy, and the defense is arranged.

Of course, Li Qingshan was the person who was taken care of, but even if the Australians were fully prepared, they could not stop Li Qingshan.

Li Qingshan first retreated for a while when the football started, leaving a sprint distance, and then accelerated forward, jumped high, and shook his head to attack the goal.

Three to zero!

When Li Qingshan headed the ball into the Australian team's goal in the air.

The fans of the Chinese team at the scene jumped up from their seats!

"Long live the Chinese team!!"
