Chapter 178 Battle in Côte d'Ivoire ([-])
Eriksson stood on the sidelines with his fists clenched. Whenever the ball was lobbed high into the penalty area, he would stay in this position. He would not let go of his fists until the ball was cleared or flew overhead.

This is the psychological change of a football coach, always hovering between hope and disappointment. Eriksson hopes that Drogba can smash the ball into the goal of the Chinese team, just like his domineering goal at Chelsea.

Drogba wasted cross opportunities time and time again in the penalty area, but Eriksson's gesture was still very firm, long pass!

"Damn, the ball is always wrong," Eriksen said to himself.

Yaya Toure looked at the coach's hand gestures and felt drumming in his heart. In all fairness, he didn't want to continue making unnecessary crosses. He was a Barcelona player, and this British style of play made him uncomfortable.

Yaya Toure gave Hot Bird a look, and then put the ball into the Chinese team's defensive ribs, but the next scene was embarrassing, Hot Bird didn't run at all.

Toure was very upset, he made a through gesture, if it was in Barcelona, ​​Pedro would have cut in the ball.

Hot Bird shrugged, disapprovingly, he pointed to Drogba, which means that there is him, the head coach said that it is enough to find him.

This is the case with African teams. If there is a disagreement, there will be infighting.

"I really don't believe it. Can the two full-backs of the Chinese team guard our full-backs?"

That Mu Fei, isn't he from Frankfurt in the Bundesliga, and that Sun Jihai, a former Premier League player.

Eriksson gestured frequently, asking the two wingers to break through and make a pass. The pass should be like a shot. No matter whoever meets the two sides, it may directly hit the goal.

Gervinho took the lead here, and the hot bird broke through without any fancy moves. There was only one move, and that was to be fast.

Sun Jihai clung to Gervinho tightly, even if he couldn't steal the ball, as long as he made the opponent feel uncomfortable.

At this stage of the game, Hot Bird's physical fitness has also dropped a lot. While running, he started to rub against Sun Jihai.

Sun Jihai felt very uncomfortable being rubbed, and thought: "Brother, I don't like men, okay?"

Gervinho saw that the bottom line was ahead, so he could only hastily choose to sweep the cross, and the ball was destroyed by Yin Di from the front point.

After passing the ball, Gervinho fell to the ground, sitting on the ground and panting heavily. If it was purely about speed, then Sun Jihai was not his opponent, but Sun Jihai's defensive position was very good, which made Gervinho feel like he couldn't use his strength.

*****
Yaya Toure saw that Gervinho's side was going to die, so he chose to give the ball to Kalou more.

"Salomon, Che that boy," Yaya Tourey shouted at Kalao, then pointed at Mu Fei.

Kalou ran towards Mu Fei, and when he was about to touch Mu Fei, he flicked the outside of his left foot to change the direction of the ball and accelerate down to the bottom again.

This action is still very deceptive, Mu Fei paused, and then started, but after a pause of less than a second, Kalou threw Mu Fei away by about 5 meters.

Kalou shook off Mu Fei, but he could feel that Mu Fei was chasing after him, and he could even hear Mu Fei panting.

Kalou looked at Drogba in the penalty area, and raised his foot to make a cross. At this moment, Mu Fei put the shovel and used the sliding shovel to make up for the 5-meter gap. Kalou never thought of this.

Yaya Toure, who was running behind, could see clearly. He thought that Kalou should have a deduction, "If it was Messi, then he would definitely have a deduction."

If Kalou could hear the OS in Toure's heart, he would definitely say: "I'm sorry, I'm not Messi."

*****
For everything in front of him, Eriksson couldn't believe it. His two wings were really blocked by the Chinese team!

"Incompetent nigger!"

Li Guo looked at the time, and the 90 minutes were about to be played, just in time, the fourth official raised the sign and added 4 minutes of extra time.

Li Guo waved to Feng Xiaoting, "Go up, replace Li Weifeng, I want this point, after you go up, lean on De Luo..."

Before Li Guo could finish speaking, Feng Xiaoting excitedly pointed at the field, "Look, head."

Li Guo turned his head and found that Hao Junmin of the Chinese team was running forward with the ball. Because he didn't look at it just now, Li Guo didn't know how the ball happened, but the Chinese team was playing a counterattack, which was unexpected.

Li Guo didn't care about Feng Xiaoting anymore, and walked towards the sideline step by step. At this time, there were only two people in front - Ji Ke and Chen Gelin.

The players in Côte d'Ivoire are retreating, and there is not much time left for Hao Junmin to choose, and the opportunity is fleeting.

Côte d'Ivoire's defense is all on Chen Gelin. They haven't heard the story of the wolf coming, but they understand the truth. It is estimated that this time the Chinese team will finally give the ball to Chen Gelin. The guy on the 9th looks stupid, so let him go.

It is true that Chen Gelin is running at the forefront of the Chinese team. Seeing that the Ivorian defenders have already caught up with Hao Junmin, even Feng Xiaoting on the sidelines is anxious, "Xiaohao pass the ball, it will be too late if I don't pass it again."

Hao Junmin glanced at Chen Gelin, raised his ankle at the last moment, and passed the ball to Ji Ke in the opposite direction.

This is beyond everyone's expectations. Ji Ke's side is marking only one left back-Tierne.

"Play with me," Kolo Toure thought to himself.

But it was impossible for him to move to defend Ji Ke. Ji Ke shook his body and jumped up high. Even if the goalkeeper Barry came out with the ball, Li Guo remembered Ji Ke's dominance in the penalty area during the match in Tahiti.

Jiko slammed the ball hard into the goal, the ball bounced and flew into the goal, Barry knelt down, Kolo Touré knelt down, Yaya Touré knelt down and they knew Côte d'Ivoire had lost.

Drogba was smiling wryly. At the African Cup of Nations, he lamented the trick of fate because he missed a penalty kick. At this time, he felt the same way again.

After scoring the goal, Ji Ke didn't rush to the bench, but to a corner of the stadium stand. There were a few Chinese fans, probably only a few hundred people. Ji Ke opened his arms towards them. Although there were only a few hundred people, without the support of fans, football is nothing.

"Let's go, let's go too," Li Guo waved his hand, all the players on the bench rushed over, and everyone celebrated wildly together.

The result of the final game was that the Chinese team reversed Côte d'Ivoire 2-1. This was the first victory and the first three-pointer in the history of the World Cup for the Chinese team.

After the game, Zhou Dun was named the best player in the game, and Li Guo was surrounded by reporters in the mixed interview area. He was a reporter from all over the world.
