Chapter 1183 World Cup legend, key relief

(one more)
At 15:4 p.m. on the 30th, with the whistle of the Portuguese referee Doss, the first round of the World Cup qualifiers between China and Costa Rica officially started.

The San Jose National Stadium, which can accommodate 3.5 people, was full. Costa Rican fans, Chinese fans and some fans from other places cheered for their teams with applause and singing before the game started. The atmosphere of the game was extremely lively.

The starting formation of the Chinese team in this game is 442 with a balanced offense and defense. Although it is an away game, Li Huan does not think that Costa Rica has the strength to force the Chinese team to play iron barrels. The more familiar the game is, the Chinese team still uses a balanced 442 instead of a conservative 451 when facing an opponent whose strength is similar to or even slightly stronger than their own.
There is no doubt about the goalkeeper, Zong Cheng, who has been performing consistently and outstandingly. The four defenders are Li Huan, Xu Bin, Wang Chunlei, Fan Yang, the midfielders are Wu Han, Liu Chao, Chen Teng, Yu Tong, the forwards Zhang Dong and Xu Yang.

哥斯达黎加今天的首发阵容是这样的：守门员1-阿尔瓦雷多；2-莫拉、4-乌马纳、5-马丁内斯、3-博尔赫斯；中场：20-马歇尔、14-奥维耶多、10-鲁伊兹、16-博拉诺斯。前锋：-11—坎贝尔、9-萨博里奥。

哥斯达黎加和中国队一样采取了442的打法，哥斯达黎加惯用的阵型是3-5-2，随着后防中坚5号马丁内斯的崛起，哥斯达黎加也用上了攻守平衡的442.
Costa Rica's offense is very resilient and mobile.They usually let opponents through the midfield, and then use their incredible speed to counter-attack on the wing.When their two flanks press the attack, other midfielders will quickly fill the gap left by them.The physique close to that of African players enables the Costa Rican players to have outstanding speed, which often deals a fatal blow to the opponent's defense.

Because of Li Huan and Fan Yang, the Chinese team's style of play is also focused on the side. When the opponent's style of play is similar to their own, the Chinese team's side attack is also affected to a certain extent. Both Li Huan and Fan Yang are afraid of Costa Rica's counterattack , Before getting familiar with Costa Rica, the Chinese team's offense was not as proactive as before.

Costa Rica took the lead in playing a three-man match on the right. Marshall made a straight pass from the left wing. Campbell caught the ball and broke into the penalty area.

Although this threatening attack was destroyed, the Costa Rica fans still gave out loud applause to cheer for their team.

After withstood Costa Rica's first attack, the Chinese team did not show weakness.In the 9th minute, the Chinese team counterattacked. Yu Tong dribbled the ball in the middle and saw that no one was going up. He raised his foot and shot a long shot 30 meters from the goal. The angle was too straight and the goalkeeper Alvaredo knelt down and hugged the ball.

In the 12 minutes of the game, Costa Rica strengthened the counterattack, and the Chinese team made consecutive mistakes in passing the ball in the midfield. In desperation, the Chinese team could only use foul actions to block Costa Rica's goal.

In the first ten minutes, the performance of the Chinese team was a bit unsatisfactory. The players were obviously a little nervous. It may be because they are about to enter the World Cup. The young players can no longer hold back their desire to enter the World Cup. Like Iran, they solved their opponents at halftime. When they found that this idea was difficult to realize, they changed from blind self-confidence to blind nervousness. They were so nervous that it was difficult to realize basic technical movements.

Li Huan on the field and Chu Fu off the field couldn't help frowning. They couldn't understand the players of the Chinese team. They couldn't understand why they were so nervous. It was still a long time. It is normal for the offense to suffer a little setback from time to time.

In fact, this is because the Chinese team wants to enter the World Cup too much. When the desire is too high, this desire becomes resistance. It will make the players extremely afraid of failure, which is why the current situation of the Chinese team players is caused.

Costa Rica is characterized by freedom and passion. The worse the Chinese team played, the better they played. Opportunities to fight back are hard to find.

In the 30th minute of the first half, Costa Rica scored the first goal.There is a loophole in the left defense zone where Fan Yang and Wang Chunlei are located. The gap between them is too large, and there are no players who can keep up with the forwards in time.At this time, Costa Rican midfielder Bolanos slanted into the gap of the Chinese team's defender. Campbell responded and formed a one-handed confrontation with Yang Zhi and pushed the ball into the lower right corner of the goal.China fell behind Costa Rica 0-1.

Originally, the fans of Costa Rica were not optimistic about their team. They were very happy to be able to draw with them at home, because the Chinese team with Li Huan was too strong. Yi's terrorist attack power, even the defense can't do it, the fans in Costa Rica doubt whether this Chinese team is still the same Chinese team, whether it is a pirated version.

Suddenly realizing that he had scored a goal, the Costa Rican fans were overjoyed, jumping for joy, singing "Honor the beautiful flag of the motherland, show us your life. Under the clear, blue sky, there is peace, purity And Serenity", celebrating their star goal.

One goal behind awakened the fighting spirit of the Chinese team, but at the same time it also awakened the fear of the Chinese team. They thought they could easily enter the World Cup. Many people even made plans to celebrate their entry into the World Cup. The family celebrates together and takes someone to Brazil.Now it suddenly turns out that they may still be eliminated. This fear and anxiety to equalize the score made the players very uneasy. The more they wanted to play well, the worse they played, and they couldn’t even catch unforced passes. up.

Less than 2 minutes before the first goal, the midfielder Wu Han of the Chinese team was too weak when he passed back to the goalkeeper. He was actually intercepted by the Costa Rica forward Campbell. I can expect my goalkeeper Zongcheng to save the Chinese team.

However, the door god Zong Cheng is not a god, he is just a door god, he is only 22 years old, at this time his mentality is no better than others, seeing his teammates playing tricks on him, Zong Cheng was so angry that he almost wanted to eat Wu Han, he Angrily, he rushed out of the small penalty area and rushed to Campbell's single-handed ball.

After scoring a goal, Campbell was in a good mood and full of confidence. Facing the attacking Zong Cheng, he actually played a spoon lob. Zong Cheng, who was originally known for his quick response, was still thinking a lot of "Why did Wu Han pass the ball like this? He's playing with me." With such a question, he didn't judge Campbell's lob shot in time, and could only watch the ball slowly fly into the net.

2: 0!
At home, Costa Rica leads by two goals.

This is a process that even the most optimistic fans did not expect. They once again gave their heroes applause like a storm. They shouted the name of "Campbell". Although the enemy is strong, their heroes are leading them to fight for themselves. Although the Chinese team may break out and reverse again in the end, this process has already satisfied the fans.

Both Li Huan and Chu Fu smelled danger.

Li Huan began to yell at his teammates. It is absolutely impossible to continue like this. The Costa Ricans are showing signs of going crazy. It really made the Costa Ricans take the lead. It will be very difficult for the Chinese team to equalize the score.

However, before Li Huan's words had any effect, there was an unstoppable exclamation from the stands, and the danger fell on the Chinese team again.

On the left side of the Chinese team, Ruiz is galloping down like lightning."

Behind him, the thin full-back Fan Yang staggered to catch up, but soon fell to the lawn in embarrassment because of his unstable center of gravity," he pretended to be lost in the physical confrontation with Ruiz. center of gravity.

At this time, that dangerous smell is getting stronger and stronger!
The whole world is watching Ruiz closely!
Ruiz roared all the way, heading straight for the bottom line.

He didn't mean to hit the goal across the middle

The Chinese team's central defender Wang Chunlei stepped forward to block.

However, Ruiz didn't give him a chance to get close, and before Wang Chunlei made a move, he immediately made a pass...

The ball flew over Wang Chunlei's head.It also happened to be out of reach of Costa Rica goalkeeper Alvaredo.

At this time, Campbell, who scored twice, was like a haunted ghost.When everyone was not paying attention, they came to the deadliest position again.Watch him leap to deliver the killing blow!
He is like a killer, when people finally realize his existence, the assassination is done!
However, at this time, a tall figure jumped up before Campbell. In the air, the tall figure and Campbell grabbed the same position. The two heads and the ball collided together, and the ball lost sight in the collision of the two heads. , missed the direction of the goal and flew out of the baseline.

The Costa Rica fans sat down in their seats annoyed. They were so disappointed. They were ready to celebrate. The cheers were already in their throats, but they were blocked.This feeling is really terrible, like being forced to pull it out when it is about to climax.

The fans of the Chinese team jumped up with joy, and some people hugged each other excitedly, hugging each other and weeping.

"Long live Li Huan! Long live Li Huan!"

It was Li Huan. At this critical moment, it was Li Huan who came to the center back to prevent Campbell from performing a hat-trick, and also prevented the Chinese team from continuing to fall into the abyss.
