"Friends of the audience, friends of the fans, hello everyone, the commentary of this game will be brought by me "He Wei"",
"There are still a few minutes before the start of the game. The "Pantanal Stadium" where the game will be held is already full of seats, and more than 4 seats are already filled."
"I believe that everyone should be as excited as I am now. The previous Asian teams did not perform well, and it is difficult to win a victory. I hope that the performance of the Chinese team today can bring back a victory for Asian football."
"Okay, under the guidance of the FIFA flag and the fair play flag, behind the referee "Howard Webb", the players of the two teams have come out of the player channel, and the game is about to start."
*****
When the players stood still and were about to play the national anthem, Li Qiao suddenly felt hot and inexplicably excited. He lowered his head for a while, but the emotion in his heart was difficult to calm down.
In order not to disturb Li Qiao's competition and training, Li Qiao's parents did not accept the invitation to come to Brazil, and for the same reason, Diana and his brother went to watch the Ukrainian game together, and did not come to "Cuiaba".
But Li Qiao knows that he has grown up, and what he shoulders are the expectations of his parents, the country, and of course Diana's expectations. All kinds of emotions burst out at this moment, and Li Qiao is a little hard to restrain himself.
When the national anthem was played, all the players put their right hands on their left chests, and Li Qiao closed his eyes for fear of tears falling down.
The players and coaching staff sang the national anthem together, including Stan, and the on-site camera also frequently pushed the camera to the stands. A beautiful fan with a Chinese red flag painted on her cheek, her eyes were already moist after the national anthem was played.
When she saw her picture on the big screen, she wiped away her tears and smiled brightly at the camera. The picture was very beautiful, never losing to the scene of the goddess "Susanna" in the 98 World Cup.
After the national anthem was played, the players yelled at themselves as encouragement, and then the Belgian national anthem was played.
After the national anthems of the two teams were played, the captains of the two teams chose sides in the midfield. Zheng Zhi was on the Chinese side, and Kompany was on the Belgian side.
Considering the current situation of the Chinese team, Li Weifeng is no longer the captain of the team. Now the captain of the Chinese team is Zheng Zhi, and the vice-captain is Zhou Dun.
Under the auspices of the bald-headed referee Weber, the captains of the two teams took sides before the game. In the end, the Chinese team kicked off first in the first half.
Zheng Zhi smiled and shook hands with the referee "Weber". After the opponent's Kompany shook hands, he quickly ran back to his own half, where he was waiting for his teammates. Zheng Zhi quickly joined his teammates and everyone formed a circle.
"Brothers, let's fight," Zheng Zhi said.
Everyone stretched out their hands and folded together and shouted in unison: "Fight".
After a simple mobilization, the players ran to their positions and stood up. Before the Brazil World Cup, there will be a countdown event. The referee Weber is looking at his watch. The countdown begins, "10, 9, 8, 7,...".
With Webber's whistle, the game started.
*****
"The game has begun," He Wei shouted excitedly.
"Next, let me introduce the starting lineups of the two sides. The predictions of Belgium and Zhang Lu are basically the same, except that Lukaku is used as a striker. The predictions of the Chinese team and Zhang Lu are quite different."
"Let me first introduce the starting lineup of the Chinese team to you."
"The goalkeeper is Wang Dalei,
The defense line from left to right is Qi Bing, Zhou Dun, Wei Xiao, Chen Fei. This is similar to what was predicted before the game, but the midfield is different. Today the Chinese team is playing a 4231 formation.
The double midfielders are Zheng Zhi and Zhang Chengdong.
On the front line is Li Qiao on the left, Hao Junmin on the middle midfielder, Lin Zhijian on the left,
The single striker is Ding Mu."
"The reason why the double defensive midfielder is arranged is to consider the opponent's super offensive ability. This is not a top 10 game, but the Chinese team rarely played 4231 after Stan took office. It's hard to say how the effect will be. We can only wait until the game starts. Observe."
*****
After the kick-off, the Chinese team remained the same - pass back to Zheng Zhi.
It took only a second for Zheng Zhi to hold the ball before the Belgian monster "Lukaku" came up. Lukaku, who is 1 meters tall, is called Drogba's successor and was nicknamed "Little Monster". Zheng Zhi has never encountered such a "half-orc" in his career.
To be cautious, Zheng Zhi sent the ball to the right defender Chen Fei, but Belgium pressed very hard at the beginning. After Zheng Zhi sent the ball, Lukaku still forced it, and at the same time, Hazard over there had already rushed towards Chen Fei.
When Chen Fei saw that Hazard was coming, he didn't dare to neglect, but when he looked up, he found that he could not pass back to Zheng Zhi, and Lukaku didn't go away. In desperation, Chen Fei returned to Wang Dalei.
When the ball rolled towards Wang Dalei, Belgium's frontcourt seemed to receive some orders in an instant. Lukaku, Hazard, and De Bruyne rushed towards Wang Dalei at the same time.
This should be a tactic arranged before the game - grab the ball at the goalkeeper's feet. Under normal circumstances, the goalkeeper's foot skills are average. If you give them a little coercion, then they are likely to make mistakes.
Now for Wang Dalei, the best way to deal with it is to kick the opponent halfway with a big kick, but it is actually not easy to face the opponent's press.
Wang Dalei took a deep breath. He knew that the ball must be played well and there must be no mistakes. Dalei kicked the bottom of the ball, and because of too much force, he even set off a small piece of lawn, and the ball flew towards the Belgian half.
Waiting there are Chinese team's Hao Junmin and Belgium's Fellaini.
For high-altitude balls, Xiaohao is indeed not Fellaini's opponent. When he was at Everton, Fellaini was a famous Premier League air fighter.
But this kind of ball, even if you can’t grab it, you have to try. Hao Junmin and Fellaini took off at the same time. There was no suspense.
Fellaini expressed disbelief, "I am a head taller than him, I need to press people"?But Weber shook his head in disapproval.
In fact, Fellaini was wronged for this ball. He was afraid of losing his balance in the air, so he opened his hand, but because he was too high, from a distance, it seemed that he was pressing Hao Junmin.
The Chinese team won a free kick. Finally, the Chinese players could breathe a sigh of relief. Wang Dalei also stepped on the lawn just set off, but it was the first round of the contest that allowed the players of the Chinese team to appreciate the "magic" of the European Red Devils - height, speed, team awareness, all of which are far higher than those of the Asian teams.
*****
Stan looked at the difficulty of the ball just now, and he asked Li Qiao to take the free kick slowly, delaying the time and letting his teammates breathe.
Fortunately, the Brazil World Cup uses spray technology, and referees need spray, so the Chinese team will have a longer time to breathe.
After drawing the line, Weber blew the whistle to indicate to Li Qiao that it was time to tee off.
Li Qiao looked into the penalty area, and a group of Chinese players in white jerseys disappeared in a "red sea".
Unless the landing point is very precise, it is impossible for such a free kick to be hit by a Chinese player.
Li Qiao is going to kick the kind of ball with a wide arc, which is the free kick that Ronaldinho scored in England in the 2002 World Cup.
The purpose is to cause confusion in front of the opponent's door, hoping to fish in troubled waters.
Li Qiao raised his hand to signal to his teammates that I was ready to kick, and then he ran up and kicked the ball.
The ball drew a big arc and flew towards the small penalty area in front of the goal. Players from both sides in the penalty area pushed and shoved. Even if it was difficult, the Chinese players squeezed forward desperately.
The line of the ball was a bit erratic, and the Belgian defensive players were also a little nervous. When the ball flew to the goal, a green figure jumped high, stretched his arms and picked the ball steadily. Everyone saw that it was the Belgian goalkeeper Courtois.
Courtois is almost 2 meters tall. After jumping up, he straightens his arms at least 4 meters. In the penalty area, as long as he does not make a mistake in judgment, it is impossible for anyone to shake his control of the ball.
Courtois looked forward, ready to launch a fast break. He made a long pass forward. This kind of ball does not need to be accurate, as long as it is far away, Lukaku can grab it by himself.
Now running over there are Zhang Chengdong and Wei Xiao of the Chinese team. Stan's heart tightened, wondering if they could win Lukaku.
After Wei Xiao procrastinated, Zhang Chengdong went up to grab the first spot.
Lukaku took the ball with his back, Zhang Chengdong resisted behind him, Lukaku leaned back, and he knew in his heart, "The one behind is not my opponent."
Relying on his physical advantage, Lukaku turned around forcibly, and Zhang Chengdong went up to grab the ball, but Lukaku's long legs separated the ball from Zhang Chengdong very well. Unless there was a foul, it would be difficult for Zhang Chengdong to get the ball.
Facing someone like Lukaku, if you can't restrain him in the first place, it will be even more impossible after he runs.
Zhang Chengdong's line of defense fell, and only Wei laughed behind him. Zhou Dun, who was standing parallel in the distance, couldn't help now. He had Hazar on his side.
Wei Xiao's personality is never afraid of anything. His eyes like ice are fixed on Lukaku, and when Lukaku comes over, he goes up to him.
Lukaku did not head-to-head, but drew a semicircle in front of the ball with his left foot, and at the same time waded the ball to the right. Although this bicycle is very stupid, Lukaku is not a bicycle, but a tank. Even if the tank is slow in disguise, it is difficult to stop.
Wei Xiao followed Lukaku while stuck in his position, but when his body touched, Wei Xiao still had no idea. It is true that Lukaku's body is at the level of Drogba.
But Wei Xiao has been following Lukaku, even if he can't break the ball, he will never allow the opponent to shoot easily.
Lukaku thought while dribbling the ball forward, "If you can't get rid of your opponent after entering the penalty area, you can only force a shot."
Wei Xiao and Lukaku were tightly packed together. Zhou Dun watched the development over there while paying attention to Hazard behind him. The only thing he could help Wei Xiao was to prevent Lukaku from passing the ball to Hazard.
Lukaku ran 20 meters with the ball, but he still couldn't get rid of Wei Xiao completely, and he brought out the bottom line any further. In desperation, he vigorously pumped the ball towards the goal, expecting a miracle with great force.
When the ball flew towards the goal, Wang Dalei was waiting in front of the goal, ready to fight.
