Chapter 177: We Are Strong!!
******
Although the Chinese national youth team has qualified from the group stage one round in advance, it still receives a lot of attention, especially the media from China, which has appeared more than the two rounds of the group stage, and the lineup is also larger! Visually inspect at least fifty media news crews.
And there were even more fans in the stands... Almost half of the entire Utrecht Hagéwald Stadium is populated by Chinese flag-waving supporters.
Although the group stage has won two in a row, but... Now the young men of the national youth team are not satisfied, and they are ready to set the best record of the Chinese national youth team in the group stage of the World Youth Championships - three consecutive wins.
In this game, the Chinese national youth team only made adjustments in a small part of the position, and did not face the Panama national youth team with a full rotation lineup as predicted by other domestic bricks.
Cui Peng was suspended for accumulating two yellow cards, and Zhu Ting also sat in prison because he received a red card against Ukraine in the last game, so head coach Crouchen made fine-tuning to the starting lineup, Fan Weiwei replaced Zheng Tao's left fullback position, Zhou Haibing returned to the starting position and Zhao Xuri partnered with the back, Chen Tao appeared on the left wingback, Hao Junmin played right midfielder, Ailuo and Gao Lin partnered forwards, a standard 442 formation, it seems that Crowchen was really used to use this irrelevant game to run in the new lineup.
Panama lost the first two games, 1:3 to Ukraine, 0:1 to Turkey, if you want to qualify, you must beat the Chinese team, and at the same time in the same group of Turkey and Ukraine The two must be separated between the winners and losers, and the hope of promotion can be said to be very slim.
Coach Mendieta made two changes to his starting line-up compared to the game against Turkey, with striker Vega being unavailable due to accumulating two yellow cards, and Gallardo being put on the bench, with Porro and Buitrago replacing the vacancies left by them.
******
Less than a minute into the opening of the first half, the Chinese national youth team caused a dangerous situation in front of the goal due to a carelessness, Aguilar stole the ball at the feet of Zhou Haibing in the front, and Salazar met the ball and shot high ......
This nonsensical mistake annoyed Crouchen, and if such a mistake were against a strong team, the result would be unimaginable, so he ran to the sideline excitedly and roared for a while before sitting back in the dugout.
Dongfang Zhuo, who was sitting on the bench, heard Crowchen roaring on the sidelines, and pouted, as if to say: "Old man Ke, if you are not satisfied, replace him, I can play......"
In the sixth minute, the Chinese national youth team sent the ball to the feet of Chen Tao after a small range of cooperation in the middle, Chen Tao quickly dribbled the ball on the left side, first deftly wiped the defense of the opponent's right back Lu, and then suddenly crossed the middle on the left side of the penalty area, Ailo's excellent explosiveness made him stand out in front of many defenders, arrived in time and fell to the ground with his right foot to push the goal of the Panama national youth team, and took the lead in breaking the deadlock.
The Chinese national youth team then got off to a dream start.
1:0
In the twelfth minute, Hao Junmin passed the ball to Tan Wangsong, who inserted the assist, who crossed the ball high, Chen Tao's header was not on target, and Gao Lin's ball in front of the goal was slightly higher than the crossbar.
Since then, the Chinese national youth team has gradually dominated possession and brought the pace of the game slower.
The Panamanian national youth team had to enter the offensive rhythm of the Chinese national youth team and was tired of defending.
Three minutes later, Iroh suddenly retreated to meet Chen Tao, who quickly stepped forward after passing the ball, Ilo understood the right foot arch and pushed, sending the ball to the left side of the no-man's land, the entire back line of the Panama national youth team in the moment when Iroh and Chen Tao did a two-one-one cooperation, they collectively pressed forward to create an offside trap.
But what they didn't expect was that Chen Tao didn't catch the ball at all, but quickly rushed towards the penalty area.
Fan Weiwei side road high-speed plugged in...
At this time, Panama's right-back Lu reacted, but it was too late, and when Fan Weiwei sent in a high-quality cross, he caught up.
At that moment, five attacking players of the Chinese national youth team poured into the Panamanian penalty area, which made their entire back line in a panic stage, Ailo and Chen Tao jumped up at the same time, but they did not reach the football, Torres and Vinigas, who were marking the two, were also shaken, and their reactions were half a beat slower, and they did not reach the ball.
At this moment, the Chinese cheering group in the stands stood up collectively, and the cheers over Hagevawald Stadium seemed to instantly turn into a flash flood, pouring down the entire stadium.
Gao Lin easily pushed the ball into the bottom left corner of the goal when he was unmarked, and the goalkeeper of the Panama national youth team, Calderón, did not react.
2:0
After Gao Lin scored the second goal, the players of the national youth team in the entire stadium were happy for him, and since the first round of the group stage match, he has been burdened with the infamy of 'Gao Aircraft' and has been under pressure. But now it's different, he can't stop scoring goals!
At the same time, this is his third goal in the group stage, which has already equaled the number of goals scored by Iello and is tied for the team's top scorer! As teammates in the team, they are all happy for Gao Lin's excellent performance.
"Beautiful! Gao Lin pulled the score on the field to a two-goal advantage for the Chinese national youth team!! After scoring two goals in the last game, Gao Lin still maintained the feeling of a shooter in this game, seizing the opportunity to score a goal, and I saw hope from him, the hope of the Chinese team!! ”
Almost accompanied by the cheers in the stands of Hagéwald Stadium, Huang Jianxiang roared hoarsely.
The whole stadium with the Chinese national youth team label was happy for Gao Lin's goal, of course...... Except for Dongfang Zhuo, his fists were clenched at the moment, his face was very ugly, he thought that the better Gao Lin looked, the slimmer his chances of appearance, and he even began to wonder if the promise that Crawford had given him before would not be fulfilled due to Gao Lin's excellent performance...
Of course, Dongfang Zhuo's ideas are impossible to hold, as an old coach who has been coaching for many years, how could he do something that does not keep his promise? Coaching and governing the army is a truth, if you want to convince your soldiers, the first thing you should do is to do what you say, so Dongfang Zhuo's idea is redundant.
……
……
Because the first two goals conceded were caused by a lack of concentration on the side defense, Panama coach Mendieta asked his players to pay great attention to the side defense, so the Chinese national youth team did not get the opportunity to score like the first two goals.
However, the Chinese national youth team did not panic in the next game, after all, the two-goal lead, the rhythm of ball control on the field also began to show a strong team style, the offense was not impatient, there was no chance to pass back, or a wide range of transfers, making full use of the width of the court.
As a result, the Panamanian players had to put in more physical effort to make up for the difference in quality between the two sides.
In the thirtieth minute, Chen Tao and Zhou Haibing switched positions and came to the middle of the court to organize the attack.
In fact, this is not to blame the defenders of the Panamanian national youth team, because according to the instructions of head coach Mendieta before the game, there must be two players waiting near Iroh at all times, and Hill and Buitrago, who are dedicated to defending Iro, did not disobey the head coach's orders and did not move, while the other players also had defensive tasks, so this caused Chen Tao to be unmarked.
This situation ...... It lasted until Chen Tao took the ball to a place twenty-five yards away from the goal and was ready to shoot, and at the same time, Iroh suddenly started, and Hill and Buitrago, who defended him, also reacted at the first time, followed Ilo back, Hao Junmin according to Crawford's pre-game deployment arrangement, suddenly diagonally from outside the penalty area into the rib gap, at the same time, Chen Tao's through ball also arrived, and Hill and Buitrago, who were closely behind Iro, saw the football rolling towards their side, and they didn't care about the manager's arrangement. Rush to the football and get ready to clear the ball.
At this moment, Hao Junmin picked up speed and toed the ball with his right foot, Hill and Buitrago could not react and stayed where they were, and Ielo took the opportunity to take the ball in the direction of the goal, and easily pushed it with his right foot near the penalty spot, and the football rolled into the net between the legs of the attacking goalkeeper Calderón.
The Chinese national youth team has a three-goal lead.
A series of wonderful passes and goals formed by running positions made the commentators of various countries in the studio of Hagéwald Stadium confused, and a thought came to their minds: Can such a wonderful cooperation be played by the Chinese team? How does it feel more like Spain?
These thoughts are combined into three words: unscientific!
……
……
What surprised them wasn't over yet.
Before the end of the first half, Zhao Xuri instigated an attack, Chen Tao accurately found the ball and pulled it to the feet of the side receiver, who did not stop the ball and directly wiped the ball to the ribs, which had completely activated Aillo, which was not at all blocked by Hill and Buitrago, and at the same time, goalkeeper Calder
