No. 632: Persistence is a miracle!
The equaliser in a very passive situation gave England a morale boost and was a shot in the arm, and they were ready to approach the game with a more positive attitude when the game resumed.
Every inch of land counts, England block Uruguay's attack in midfield!
In the 44th minute, Kenting used his strong body and speed to steal the ball from Forlan's feet, and then passed the ball to Girard, who was answering.
With a numerical disadvantage, England's attack was very simple, and if Girard had the ball and had an opportunity to attack with a long pass, he would launch a quick counter-attack with a precise long pass.
"Smack!"
Girard made a long pass, Defoe met the ball, and Wang Rui quickly approached him to respond. After Defoe got the ball, he faced the defense of Fusile and crossed with a cross before cutting in.
Horizontal pass straight into two over one!
Wang Rui didn't stop the ball, and directly made a diagonal pass, Di Fufei stepped forward, controlled the football under his feet after two steps, and quickly advanced along the sideline.
The Uruguayan defense quickly retreated, and Wang Rui continued to follow.
Defoe suddenly crossed ten meters from the baseline, and he did not pass the ball into the penalty area, but passed the ball to the arc of the penalty area, because Wang Rui had already received it in that position.
With the deepening of the World Cup, Wang Rui has won the trust of all his teammates, as long as he runs in place, his teammates will not hesitate to pass the football to him to deal with.
At this moment, Arevalo, who was on Wang Rui's left, pressed his right shoulder his left shoulder, preventing him from comfortably holding the ball. Diego Perez, on Wang Rui's right, rests on Wang Rui's right shoulder on his left shoulder.
From a distance, the three of them are like a hamburger, and Wang Rui is the piece of meat between the two slices of bread.
Wang Rui's shoulders are not only strength, but also huge pressure!
A good Wang Rui, after the outstretched right foot touched the football, he pulled back with the direction of the football!
Then a flick!
Where has football gone?
Arévalo and Diego Pérez were shocked!
The England fans in the stands only felt their blood boiling, and their souls flew into the night sky, God, the king can still make such a wonderful pass under the bag of two defenders!
Uruguayan coach Tabarez, who stands in the command area. His heart "chuckled" and his face changed greatly, Capello suppressed his excitement and held his breath......
The ball flew out of Wang Rui's left heel. Heading towards the penalty area, a white lightning bolt moves towards the ball!
Sky TV commentator Kent yelled: "Peter! Wolves Twins! ”
"Shoot!"
Peter stepped on the left side of the football with his left foot, and kicked the ball hard in the upper middle of the football with his right foot, and the football stuck to the turf and headed towards the left side of the goal like an arrow!
Just as Peter got up and shot. Uruguayan goalkeeper Muslera kicked his right foot sharply and his whole body flew out!
The stadium fell into utter silence once again!
If football is an arrow, then Muslera's right hand is a sturdy shield, and the arrow sparks with the shield, then changes direction and flies towards the baseline!
"Wow! ……”
There was a huge exclamation on the pitch!
German national television said loudly: "This is an extremely wonderful offensive and defensive performance, Wang cleverly passed the football into the Uruguayan penalty area, Peter, who has a high degree of tacit understanding with him, fired a low shot, Muslera saved the football from the bottom line!"
We had to marvel at Wang's ability to pass the ball, with great difficulty in the double pack. He can also send a wonderful pass! ”
Uruguayan state television roared: "Great Muslera, he made another great save!" ”
Peter, who lost a good chance to score a goal, hid his face and sighed, Wang Rui suppressed the disappointment in his heart, and shouted at him: "Good ball!" It's okay! What we have is opportunity. ”
Peter exhaled and gave Wang Rui a thumbs up, signaling that the pass he had just made was beautiful.
Arévalo and Diego Pérez looked at the ball flying off the baseline, and instead of feeling relaxed, they felt that the burden on their shoulders was heavier.
Wang Rui was like a big mountain pressing on their shoulders, so that they did not dare to relax in the slightest.
It was uneventful for the rest of the first half. Neither side created another good chance to find the back of the net. As the referee's whistle blew, the first half of England and Uruguay came to an end, and England, who had one man less, stubbornly equalised.
Players from both sides returned to the locker room to the applause of the fans.
The major TV stations used this time to summarize the first half and look forward to the second half. Sky TV commentator Kent lamented: "The king is still the king, and although he was heavily targeted by Uruguay, he still scored a shocking goal! ”
"England would be more passive without him, and without him, England's attacking threat would not be as great!"
"Ashley Cole has been affected by the divorce lawsuit. There were a number of mistakes in the game, which even led to Terry having to resort to tactical fouls to break up Suarez's one-on-one ball in order to make up for his mistakes.
Capello should consider letting him go off the pitch, if he makes such a mistake again in the second half, no one can save the England team! ”
Uruguayan national television said: "The Uruguayan players are all good, England are the favourites to win the title and they deserve credit for being able to play like this.
The forward combination of Forlan and Suarez created a great threat for England, and Suarez should be a little more active in the second half and strive for goals!
Arévalo and Diego Pérez should have been more focused in the second half, with Wang really being 'a second-to-second' player who conceded a goal in that slackness in the first half. ”
The Uruguayan national television commentator attributed Uruguay's goal to the laxity of the two midfielders, which doesn't make much sense.
German national television jokingly said: "England may think that Uruguay is not strong enough, so they create difficulties for themselves."
Ten against eleven, England played quite hard and passive in the second half of the first half, but fortunately they had a superstar, Wang helped them equalize and stabilize the situation with an unreasonable long-range shot.
In the second half, England will be more passive, and as Uruguay's numerical advantage grows as time goes on, England must be prepared for a tough battle.
In fact, when Terry was sent off, the balance of victory had begun to tilt in favor of Uruguay, and Wang relied on his personal ability to temporarily return the balance to the balance point, but how long can this situation last?
According to the situation on the field, the second half of the game should be like this: Uruguay dominate the attack, England play defensive counter-attack.
Who will have the last laugh?
It depends not only on which side the god of luck is on, but also on the performance of the key players of both sides, if Wang is like in the first half, an unreasonable shot on goal, maybe the English will be lucky to have the last laugh. ”
……
After the England players returned to the dressing room, the atmosphere was a little subdued, and John Terry stepped forward to hug the ten teammates on the field one by one and encouraged them: "Persistence is victory, persistence is a miracle!" ”
To the surprise of the players, Capello and Beckenham haven't been back in the dressing room for a long time, so what are they doing?
Ashley Cole's face was cloudy. (To be continued.) )
