Volume 4 World Cup Legends Chapter 94 Corner Kick
In the face of the Nordic pirates with good headers and strong body, the dense defense will definitely not be able to defend, and the players of the Chinese team are not short in height, but their flexibility and strength cannot be compared with the Swedish elders. Li Huan, who has seen a lot of things, knows this very well, and during the pre-game training, they did not focus on intensive defense, and offense is what he emphasized the most, making full use of the Chinese team's long run-in time together, small and fast, flying with both wings, taking advantage of the weakness of the Swedish team's defenders turning slowly, and hitting the back of the Swedish team fiercely. And that's how the opening threatening attack was done.
After Li Huan's tactics were verified to be suitable, the players of the Chinese team were full of confidence and pressed heavily in the front and middle, and there were no less than five players in the Swedish team's half, putting pressure on the Swedish team's defenders, which is rare in the previous games of the Chinese team.
Of course, the Swedish team will not show weakness, although they are not the favorites of the World Cup, but they still have a certain psychological advantage in playing Asian teams like the Chinese team.
Swedish goalkeeper Isaksson kicked the goal kick with a big foot, the ball was grabbed by the Swedish team in the middle to the landing point, the header was ferried to the front of the Chinese team's penalty area, looking for the tall Ibrahimovic, the familiar Ibrahimovic wanted to stop the ball with his forehead, but Li Huan rushed from the side and back, leaning on Ibrahimovic with his body, Ibrahimovic, who was 12 cm taller than Li Huan, was defeated by Li Huan in terms of strength, and was squeezed by Li Huan to lose control of the ball, and the ball fell on Li Huan's head.
Ibrahimovic is a very arrogant person, and the Swedish media once criticized him for saying: Ibrahimovic's arrogance can fit Stockholm. In the first few minutes, he had been at a disadvantage in the fight with Li Huan, and now he was robbed of the ball under the condition of controlling the ball, Ibu was furious, he pushed Li Huan violently, wanting to grab the ball again, but Li Huan's body balance was very good, and with a push from Ibu, he staggered forward, and even shook the ball past Little Larsen.
After passing little Larsson, Li Huan immediately made a long pass behind the Swedish team's fullback, and asked Feng Liang to race with the 1.88-meter-tall Rastig.
It took half a century for Lustig to turn around, where was there time to race against Feng Liang, he had to block a counterattack by the Chinese team, but he was also verbally warned by the referee, this is because the game has just started, otherwise he is likely to receive a yellow card.
In the 12th minute of the game, the Swedish team got a corner kick opportunity, which was a good opportunity for them to use their aerial superiority, and almost all the big headers rushed to the Chinese team's penalty area to fight for the top.
In order to prevent Li Huan from intercepting, Bujasmir's corner kick was high and fast, but his footwork was not as accurate as Li Huan and Xiaobei, although Li Huan did not grab this point, and Ibrahimovic could only stare at such a high ball.
After the ball returned to the feet of the Chinese team again, the Chinese team still attacked the back of the Swedish team quickly, and behind the fullbacks and central defenders were the landing points of the Chinese captain's pass and short pass, and the tall and clumsy defenders of the Swedish team had to frequently turn around and race with the Chinese team's full-backs and full-backs, making them tired, where there was still the energy to assist.
After 30 minutes of play, the Swedes finally realized that the Chinese team is not a good bone to gnaw, and their idea of eating the Chinese team in one bite is unrealistic.
The reason why Hamren made this choice was that he believed that the Swedish team would have an advantage in positional battles, and the Swedish team could pose a threat to the Chinese team from corner kicks and free kicks. But Hamren forgot that the Chinese team's attack is not all behind him, the Chinese team's attack mainly comes from Li Huan, although now Li Huan has come to the position of central defender, it does not mean that Li Huan will not assist.
The Swedish team had just retreated, and Li Huan, who was under less pressure, immediately launched an assist with the ball, which was his offensive from the middle, although the resistance was greater, but once it broke through, the threat was greater, because Li Huan could shoot from a distance at any time.
Ibrahimovic does not have Spain's high-level anti-robbery ability, and he has no awareness of counter-robbery at all, when Li Huan assists with the ball, Ibrahimovic just symbolizes his surname and makes a move, and then sees Li Huan away.
There are a lot of players in the middle, both the enemy and me, unless the opponent is broken when the attack is broken to counterattack, otherwise it is impossible to run at a speed like the side, Li Huan has not rushed through the half, two players of the Swedish team have been sandwiched, and there are two midfielders of the Chinese team on Li Huan's side, Li Huan is also worried about whether there will be Swedish players behind him to sneak attack, passing people is no longer the best choice, Li Huan passed the ball to Wu Han, who was unguarded, and quickly ran to the empty gear.
Wu Han immediately understood what Li Huan meant, but he was not a forward midfielder, and he did not have the ability to pass the ball with one kick, he stopped the ball, and then passed the ball over, in less than a few tenths of a second, Li Huan's running gap had already qualified for the defenders of the Swedish team, and the ball passed by Wu Han almost put Li Huan in danger of going to the knife mountain.
"What a pig! How good a pass is one! Duan Xuan couldn't help but scold Wu Han for delaying the passing opportunity.
However, Li Huan boldly took the fire, rubbed the ball before Castrom who came up from the tackle, and jumped over Castrom's body himself.
Li Huan quickly passed through the center circle, and the forwards of the Chinese team immediately ran separately to the sides to make room for Li Huan.
After Li Huan dodged the steal of Swedish defender Bujasmir, the two central defenders were already close in sight, but Li Huan was not flustered, and he passed the ball under the crotch of central defender Olsen between lightning and flint.
Just when Olsen was overjoyed to block Li Huan's attack, he found that Li Huan had stopped, and the Swedish fans in the stands let out a loud exclamation. He turned his head and found that Zhang Dong, the striker of the Chinese team, had formed a trend of going to the meeting alone.
Li Huan's passing speed is not fast, it is very gentle, and his striker can just reach it, but the goalkeeper of the Swedish team has no time to attack, which can be described as the pinnacle of wonder, and there are many more than Harvey, Zidane and other midfield masters.
Zhang Dong was extremely excited at the moment, although this was not his first single-knife ball, but thinking of the important surname of this ball, his heart was still excited and almost jumped out of his chest.
The Chinese team's attack this time was not to hit behind the Swedish team, and Zhang Dong's single ball had no chance to adjust at all, but he took two steps to face the attack of goalkeeper Ixasson.
Zhang Dong did not panic, decisively pushed the lower left corner of the goal, he did not choose too awkward angles for the sake of insurance, but pursued the speed of the ball.
But at this time, both sides were highly nervous, and goalkeeper Isaksson was too late to fall to the ground at this time, he was in a hurry to block it with his foot, and the ball hit Isakson's leg and deviated from the goal and flew out from the bottom line.
A sigh suddenly sounded over the stadium, from the goalpost in the fifth minute to the current single goal, the fans of the Chinese team began to worry, because according to the rules of the stadium, such a good opportunity is likely to be punished by the opponent if they do not score.
Li Huan patted Zhang Dong on the shoulder, forcibly suppressed the regret in his heart, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, no one's single ball may be 100% scored." ”
Zhang Dong looked at Li Huan ashamedly, and said in a snort: "It's too demoralizing." ”
"There's still a chance. Don't think too much about it, trust me that I'm not. Li Huan smiled more confidently.
Zhang Dong scratched his head, clenched his fists, and said, "Well, I believe in the coach." ”
When the Chinese team sent a corner kick, there were only two strikers and Wu Han in the penalty area, because the players of the Swedish team were too tall to stand inside, and they would rather run to the periphery of the penalty area to prepare to shoot a long shot, which was more likely than to be a decoration in the penalty area.
Yu Tong ran to the corner flag area to play a tactical free kick with Li Huan, but the Swedish team watched him very strictly, and Toivonen followed him.
Li Huan looked at the situation in the penalty area and couldn't help sighing, even if he had superb footwork, he couldn't find his teammates from the Swedish "forest" and help them complete the header.
However, Li Huan watched the attention of goalkeeper Isaksson on the player who was preparing to shoot from the edge of the penalty area, Li Huan sneered, and vigorously pulled out a wonderful curling ball with the outside instep.
The ball was not high, but the arc was very large, and it went around the grabbers in the small penalty area, drew a perfect big arc between the big penalty area and the small penalty area, and then flew straight to the back corner of the goal.
Li Huan passed...... Oooh! No, Li Huan shot directly, and the ball turned to the back corner of the goal......"
The noisy stands suddenly became quiet, and almost everyone realized what might be going to happen below, but before it happened, they hoped that it would happen immediately, or never.
The silence of the fans lasted less than a second, and then the stadium exploded like a pot, with applause, shouts, and roars.
Commentators in various languages in the broadcast area also shouted loudly to express their excitement at the incredible goal.
The ball is in!
1:0.
Li Huan's corner kick spun directly into the goal!
When the ball went around the center of the goal, goalkeeper Isaksson understood Li Huan's intentions, he moved sideways at high speed, stretched out his ape arm and tried his best to hit the ball that was spinning towards the goal, but his efforts were too late If he moved in advance, there might be hope, because Li Huan's corner kick did not hit the dead corner, but he didn't expect Li Huan to shoot directly at all, and forgot the advice of a reporter, "Even if Li Huan stands in his own goal, he can threaten the opponent's goal." ”
