King of the Zone

The problems in the game itself and Sun Wei's bombardment at the post-match press conference made this game immediately become the hot spot of the Olympic Games that day.

"Cheng Haimei scored twice to lead the Hua Guo Olympic team to defeat Senegal 3-1 and advance to the semi-finals. The referee's law enforcement standards have caused controversy! "

"Hua Guo Guo Olympic team defeated Senegal 3-1 and advanced to the semi-finals. The referee Clattenburg was bombarded by the head coach of the Hua Guo team after the game! "

"The referee Clattenburg became the 12th man on the field in Senegal, but it did not prevent Cheng Hai from leading the Hua Guo Olympic team to beat Senegal 3-1 and advance to the semi-finals!" "

Some media described the facts fairly, and some media directly pointed out that there was a problem with Clattenburg's penalty.

Especially that penalty, which directly led to Senegal's goal, the most serious misjudgment.

Chinese team coach Sun Wei was suspended for two games by the London Olympic Organizing Committee for his inappropriate remarks at the post-match press conference.

In other words, even if the Hua Guo team reaches the final, Sun Wei will not be able to sit on the sidelines and direct the game. The Hua Guo Olympic team will continue to move forward in the absence of the head coach.

Of course, this is not a big problem.Everyone knows that the real core of the Huaguo team is Cheng Hai, not the head coach.

As long as Cheng Hai is not suspended, the Hua Guo team is still the favorite to win the championship.

However, this suspension penalty still caused protests from the Chinese media and fans, but it could not change the decision of the organizing committee.

Fortunately, Clattenburg didn't get it right either. He was severely banned by FIFA for half a year and could not officiate any football matches within half a year.

This can be regarded as a warning to the referees of the next two games.

For FIFA, the appearance of Cheng Hai is a good opportunity to actively promote football and expand the influence of football in Asia, so they stand on Cheng Hai's side.

Last year's Golden Globe accident was actually just the prejudice of some of the judges. It had little to do with the organizer of FIFA itself, and they did not vote for it. They were only responsible for distributing, collecting and counting the votes.

The strong support for Cheng Hai this time and the severe punishment for Clattenburg can be regarded as a signal of goodwill to Cheng Hai.

Another news that is even more bad news for Clattenburg is that he made things difficult for Hua Guo in the game of Hua Guo, but he did not expect that the British Olympic team lost to Mexico in the quarter-finals.

In the final quarter-finals, as the host, the British Olympic team was tied 1-1 by the Mexican Olympic team.

It's probably something Clattenburg didn't expect to kill.

As the world champion and the host, the British Olympic team lost to Mexico, which was only No.

So far, the quarter-finals are all over, and the teams that have entered the finals are Japan, China, Brazil, and Mexico.

Two Asian teams, two American teams, European and African teams were wiped out.

The next semi-finals are Huaguo VS Japan, Brazil VS Mexico, which are called Asian Derby and American Derby respectively.

As for playing against Japan, the Hua Guo team is not afraid at all.

As long as Cheng Hai is there, the Japanese team, which is also an Asian team, cannot pose a threat to the Chinese team.

As long as the Chinese team beats Japan, they will be able to break into the finals and compete for the Olympic gold medal.

This made the whole Huaguo go crazy, and countless fans bought tickets to fly to England temporarily, wanting to witness the Huaguo National Olympic team defeating Japan and advancing to the final match.

Even in China, there are countless people waiting to watch the live broadcast of the game.

An Olympic semi-final that is not very important in the eyes of European and American countries has already attracted the pursuit of fans all over the country, and even countless spectators who were not fans have also been attracted to become fans, and they have abnormal expectations for this game.

And the referee for this game is no longer England, but Italian Golden Whistle Rocky. This is a signature golden whistle launched by the Italian Referee Union. Naturally, it will not smash its own signboard. Italy is also a country with a relatively good relationship with China among European countries.

The match between Huaguo and Japan, two Asian countries, has nothing to do with Rocky. He only needs to complete his law enforcement tasks.

Therefore, in this game, it is basically certain that the Hua Guo Olympic team will not encounter any unfair penalties in the law enforcement environment.

After not worrying about refereeing, the Huaguo team has full confidence in the semi-finals.

Cheng Hai said in an interview with reporters on the first day before the game: "Since we have reached the semi-finals, our goal must be the championship! As for Japan? I have [-]% confidence to lead my teammates to defeat the opponent."

A reporter asked about the two-game suspension of the head coach. Cheng Haidao: "We have an excellent assistant team, and the head coach has arrangements for both training and competition. We will not lose to Japan because of this."

In contrast, the Japanese team is relatively low-key, because they know that it will be difficult for them to defeat the Hua Guo team with Cheng Hai, the world's number one superstar, no matter how high their morale and self-confidence are.

Instead, keep a low profile and see if you can make the Hua Guo team proud and underestimate the enemy, and take a chance to beat the Hua Guo team in an upset.

Cheng Hai and his teammates didn't care. In the face of absolute strength, the upset of the Japanese team does not exist.

In Asia, Cheng Hai has absolute confidence to lead his team to defeat any opponent.

Last year, they were able to reach the top of the Asian Cup. This year, Cheng Hai's strength has improved a lot. The Japanese team will definitely not be able to stop Cheng Hai.

Soon, the time came to 8:7 noon on August 14th. With the whistle of the Italian referee Rocchi, the 00 London Olympic Men's Football semi-final between the Chinese Olympic Team and the Japanese Olympic Team officially began at Wembley Stadium.

In order to defend Cheng Hai, the Japanese team sent a 4321 Christmas tree three midfielder formation in this game to curb Cheng Hai's offensive ability.

However, even so, in the face of Cheng Hai's super personal strength, without the referee's favoritism, the Japanese team's defense line of four defenders, three midfielders and two avant-garde defenses only lasted for more than ten minutes, and was broken in the 14th minute.

It was not Cheng Hai who scored the goal, but full-back Rao Weihui, but it was Cheng Hai who assisted.

It was Cheng Hai's series of breakthroughs and dribbles on the right, as well as the possibility of cutting inside and shooting, that made the entire defense line of Japan very nervous, and they almost swarmed to defend Cheng Hai.

As a result, Cheng Hai made a long pass in the air after dodging the gap through the change of rhythm and smashing the ball, and sent the ball to the back point of the penalty area.

Rao Weihui rushed into the penalty area without any defense, and with a standard dive, he headed the ball into the goal guarded by Osamu Gonda.

Cheng Hai assisted Rao Weihui to open the scoring, and the Chinese team led Japan 1-0.

After scoring the lead, the Hua Guo team can play more leisurely, while the Japanese team has to strengthen their offense.

But to strengthen the offense, they have to face the counterattack of the Hua Guo team.

In the 21st minute, Japan was almost hit by a quick counterattack by the Hua Guo team. Unfortunately, after Cheng Hai passed the ball to Cao Yunding, Cao Yunding made a mistake with the ball and was intercepted by the opponent's full-back.

Although this counterattack was unsuccessful, it still shocked the Japanese team, so that they had to attack while guarding against the moves and counterattacks of Cheng Hai, Cao Yunding, Dong Xuesheng and others.

However, the strength of the Japanese Olympic team is only at the Asian level, and it is only a U23-level team. Facing Cheng Hai, the world's number one superstar, the result of too many distractions is Cheng Hai's long-distance attack and penetrates the defense.

In the 28th minute, Cheng Hai received the ball from his teammate after stealing the ball near the middle circle, and then used crotch piercing, Marseille roundabout, and cycling to pass three people in a row.

Cheng Hai scored a goal to rewrite the score to 2-0, and the Hua Guo team took a two-goal lead.

The Japanese team was relatively stable after falling behind by one goal, but after falling behind by two goals, the Japanese team could not stabilize.

They have already reached the semi-finals, and the Japanese team naturally wants to enter the finals and win the championship.Even if the opponent is Cheng Hai, they want to win.

Therefore, in the next game, the Japanese team pressed forward vigorously, trying to use a fierce offensive to break through the Hua Guo team's defense and score goals.

But things backfired. Not only did their offense fail to score, but they were quickly punished.

In the 36th minute, Cheng Hai counterattacked again. He dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and cooperated with his teammate to hit the wall. Cheng Hai made a powerful long shot from outside the penalty area 26 meters away, and once again broke through the goal guarded by Osamu Gonda.

Before the end of the first half, Cheng Hai staged two shots and one pass, which helped the Huaguo team gain a 3-0 lead and basically sealed the victory.

Of course, in the character of the Japanese, it has always been not easy to admit defeat, especially against the life and death enemy of China.

Therefore, seeing that the score was three goals behind, the head coach of the Japanese team did not care that the first half was not over, so he made substitution adjustments, removed two midfielders, replaced a midfielder and a striker, and changed to a 4132 formation to strengthen the offense.

The Japanese team, which has increased the number of offensive players, did threaten the Huaguo team's goal in the 40th minute. Forward Nagai Kensuke's powerful shot from the penalty area line almost broke the Huaguo team's goal.

Fortunately, goalkeeper Wang Dalei concentrated his energy and made a timely side attack to save the ball over the baseline.

The next corner kick was withdrawn into the penalty area, and Cheng Hai, who participated in the defense, pushed out of the penalty area to clear the siege, and did not give the Japanese team a chance to head the goal.

Next, the Japanese team continued to attack, and the Huaguo team continued to defend.

But in fact, the efficiency of the Japanese team's offense was really low under Cheng Hai's spare no effort to sweep and press. It was difficult to score even within 30 meters of the goal, let alone the penalty area.

On the contrary, the Chinese team seems to be under pressure from Japan, but once the ball changes hands, it is very easy to form a counterattack.

Because Cheng Hai's personal strength is too strong, no matter whether he breaks through with the ball, runs long distances, or makes a long pass or through assists his teammates, they can pose a great threat to the Japanese team's defense.

Although not every assist can be turned into a goal by teammates, but the number of times is too high, and the Japanese team can't bear it.

No, in the 45th minute of the first half, after entering stoppage time, the Japanese team's long-range shot from outside the penalty area was blocked by central defender Zhang Linpeng flying to block the hole of the gun.

The blocked ball landed at the feet of the midfielder Maitijiang. Maitijiang immediately turned around and sent the ball to the foot of the full-back Wu Xi who was inserted from the side. The Huaguo team launched a quick counterattack.

The ball was quickly sent to the frontcourt with three passes and two downs, making the Huaguo team form a three-on-three situation. Among them, two central defenders blocked Cheng Hai's way forward with the ball, and a defender on the left was defending Dong Xuesheng, but Cao Yunding, who was diagonally into the penalty area on the right, was unguarded.

Cheng Hai was not greedy for merit, and he didn't have to break through the two guards who blocked him, but decisively gave the ball to Cao Yunding.

Cheng Hai's full vision and passing skills allowed him to send a wonderful pass. Not only was it not destroyed by the opponent, but it also fell right in front of Cao Yunding, and Cao Yunding was not offside.

The next thing was simple, Cao Yunding waded the ball, adjusted his center of gravity, and entered the penalty area, and then faced the attacking goalkeeper Gonda Shuichi, Cao Yunding made a lob shot.

The ball flew over Osamu Gonda's thigh, who wanted to stretch his foot to block the ball, and then fell into the goal behind him without any suspense.

Before the end of the first half, Cheng Hai scored twice with a goal and an assist, helping Huaguo to take a 4-0 lead.

Such a score can basically declare the end of the game.

After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again. The Japanese team did not shrink their defense to avoid conceding more goals. Instead, they continued their tactics in the second half of the first half and continued to attack the Chinese team in the half.

Perhaps, in the eyes of the Japanese, even if they know they must lose, scoring a goal to save a little face is still more important than conceding fewer goals.

Therefore, they chose to continue the mad attack.

However, Cheng Hai's sweeping defense covering the entire midfield, coupled with the supplementary defense of his teammates, prevented the Japanese team's offense from achieving much effect.

Instead, the Hua Guo team scored again in the 57th minute.

Cheng Hai's long-distance attack by several people made Japanese defender Hiroki Sakai finally choose a tactical foul. He put Cheng Hai down about 23 meters away from the goal, received a yellow card, and gave Cheng Hai a free kick with a good position and distance.

While the Japanese were praying that Cheng Hai would not score a free kick, Cheng Hai did it overnight, kicked a perfect arc, bypassed the wall, bypassed the goalkeeper, and flew into the near goal of the Japanese team against the goal post.

Cheng Hai completed a hat-trick and helped the Hua Guo team to a 5-0 victory. There was no suspense in the game.

But the game was not over, and the Japanese team did not stop attacking.

Anyway, it was impossible to win the game. The Japanese team simply gave up on themselves. Even the two full-backs rushed to the frontcourt to participate in the attack, vowing to score a goal or two to save face.

But their wish was never fulfilled.

Because of Cheng Hai's participation in the defense, the unity of the Hua Guo team, and the extraordinary performance of goalkeeper Wang Dalei.

In the 73rd minute, the Japanese team entered the penalty area and shot a high-quality shot, but it was saved by Wang Dalei.

The saved ball landed at the foot of the Japanese player Yuki Otsu again. Yuki Otsu stabbed the ball reflexively, trying to poke the ball into the empty goal, but was unexpectedly saved by Wang Dalei.

Wang Dalei staged a brave two-game pounce, keeping the Japanese team's shots at bay, and drew applause from tens of thousands of Chinese and overseas Chinese fans in the stands.

Wang Dalei's two consecutive pounces knocked down the last spirit of the Japanese players, and it seemed that he could no longer raise the momentum of vowing to score a goal.

In the next game, although the Japanese team was still attacking, the offensive was not as fierce as before.

The head coach Sun Wei immediately replaced two players in a row, allowing the main players to take the opportunity to rest and prepare for the final.

However, Cheng Hai did not end.

As a result, Cheng Hai, who was not replaced, assisted his teammates to score again in the 85th minute.

This time it was not Cheng Hai's attack with the ball, but after he attracted a lot of defensive attention in the middle, the full-back Cao Yunding dribbled the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt.

After reaching the frontcourt, Cao Yunding made an inward cutting posture, and the defender who was defending Cheng Hai had to intercept him.

The strength to defend Cheng Hai was reduced, and Cheng Hai was proficient in running without the ball. He quickly ran out of the gap and received a pass from Cao Yunding.

But the Japanese team's defensive attention to Cheng Hai was quite concentrated. Seeing Cao Yunding pass the ball, three or four defenders immediately surrounded Cheng Hai.

However, this attack was originally a counterattack, and not all of the Japanese team's personnel returned to the defense.

After going there, three or four people surrounded Cheng Hai, and there was naturally a serious shortage of people in other places.

Cheng Hai didn't force a breakthrough, but just knocked the ball lightly across the middle. Maitijiang, who was inserted in the back row, rushed into the penalty area, and kicked the ball into the lower left corner of the goal without stopping the ball.

Goalkeeper Gonda Shuichi made a save, but he couldn't do anything and could only watch the ball hit the net.

Cheng Hai performed a double hat-trick of goals and assists, helping the Huaguo team take a 6-0 lead.

After completing this assist, Cheng Hai was finally replaced by coach Sun Wei.Because Sun Wei was afraid that the Japanese would become angry and deliberately hurt Cheng Hai, so if Cheng Hai missed the final, the Hua Guo team would be caught blind.

Therefore, although Cheng Hai's physical fitness can last until the end of the game, Sun Wei still replaced Cheng Hai in advance.

In the last few minutes, although the Japanese team was still attacking and the Huaguo team was still defending, perhaps it was the reality of six goals behind that made the Japanese players too desperate. Their offense was almost of no quality, and the occasional long-range shot from outside the penalty area was also very wide.

After 3 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game. With Cheng Hai's goal and assisted double hat-trick, the Hua Guo Olympic team slaughtered the Japanese Olympic team 6-0 in the semifinals, advanced to the final with their heads held high, and won the qualification to compete for the championship and gold medal.

More than 2 hours later, the second semi-final ended, and the Brazilian Olympic team beat Mexico 3-0 unsurprisingly, advancing to the final.

In fact, although the Brazilian team has won five World Cup championships, it has never won an Olympic championship.

Therefore, the men's football final of the 2012 London Olympic Games is destined to produce a lineup of Olympic champion teams!
