Godfather of national football

Chapter 468 The semi-final encounters the cold ([-])
The game has come to stoppage time, and Postkoglu is still expressionless, but Queiroz looks very nervous. He knows that the closer to the last moment, the more dangerous it is.

Defense is more difficult than offense. The Iranian team has defended the entire game and has reached the point of exhaustion. If a goal is lost at this time, it will immediately be like a deflated ball, irreversible.

Postkoglu's heart was pounding, he was ready to face defeat, it was bitter, but he didn't want to show his timidity, the game was still a few minutes away.

Li Guo in the stands wanted to give Postkoglu a thumbs-up. This guy is really too calm. Although he is pretending, most people can't even pretend.

With a whistle, Australia won a free kick in the frontcourt, and the audience roared, this is a good opportunity.

The goalkeeper also rushed up, Leckie kicked a curve ball into the penalty area, and the first point was pushed out by the Iranian players. The Australian fans at the scene were half-hearted.

He turned his head and saw that it was a football. It turned out that the football from the Iranian team's rescue was impartial and hit him right on his body.

Matthew Ryan kicked a big foot into the sky. He just wanted to buy time and ran back quickly, but he hit the right side and the ball passed a group of people and came to the goalkeeper.

Under normal circumstances, after a set kick, players from both sides will press out, but this time they were hit by the Australian goalkeeper.

Someone ran out from the crowd. The Iranian saw it and quickly raised his hand to signal that the man was offside, but the referee ignored it.

The man poked the ball in front of the goalkeeper and it went in.

After the goal, No. 9 Yuric ran to the sidelines, and then turned around to see that none of his teammates ran over to celebrate with him.

It turned out that everyone thought the ball was offside, and Li Guo thought so too. Obviously, the four Iranian defenders are positioned in parallel, and Julich should be offside.

According to the current football rules, if the referee can’t see clearly, he will wait for the goal to be scored before making a penalty. However, after tens of seconds, the line referee still did not raise the flag.

The Iranians quit. They clearly saw that Ulrich was offside, so they didn't chase. This single-handedly should not exist.

Queiroz has rushed to the referee to argue, and there can only be one consequence, that is, he will be sent to the stands.

"Hehe, it's the host country after all, so it's unavoidable to be sidelined like this, but...hehe, everyone understands it," Li Guo thought to himself.

In fact, this is true. There are so many people in the penalty area, and the assistant referees make judgments based on long-term experience. Usually, they should raise the flag, but this is the host. What if I get it wrong?

Therefore, the flag in their hands was still afraid to raise it. The Iranians were angry. They surrounded the assistant referees and the referee.

But the result is impossible to change. In any case, the Australians knew they were wrong, so the celebration was very low-key, and everyone hugged together.

The protest was fruitless, the game continued, and soon the 90 minutes of regular time came, and the two teams entered overtime.

Because of the controversy, a good news reporter found Li Guo immediately before the overtime game, and wanted to interview them, but they were all stopped by plainclothes. Li Guo joked, "How much do you two earn each month? I kind of want to hire you as my bodyguards."

Entering overtime, Australia seems to have saved a life. No matter what, it is enough to score a goal, regardless of whether it is offside or not.

Just as Queiroz expected, the Iranian team relied on one breath, which is a bit like Atletico Madrid in the 2014 UEFA Champions League final. Now that the breath has been vented, Iran performed like two teams in overtime, and its defense was full of loopholes.

Finally, in the second half of overtime, Kruse seized the opportunity and scored another goal for Australia. There was no problem with the goal this time. The Australians did not need to blame themselves. The celebration was reckless, and the whole stadium was boiling.

Postkoglu clenched his fist secretly, and it was done!
The camera searched for Queiroz in the stands, but unfortunately, he had already left the stadium, and the old man should have been blown up.

The irreversible Iran received a red card at the last moment, and the game ended in a noisy atmosphere. Australia defeated Iran 2-1 and advanced to the final. They will compete with the Chinese team on this venue for the final ownership of this year's Asian Cup.

The game is over, and the plainclothes security work for Li Guo is also over. Li Guo "recovered" his freedom. The last time Postkoglu provoked him in the player tunnel, Li Guo will of course have to return it.

Li Guo was also waiting for his opponent in the player tunnel. When Postkoglu appeared, he laughed himself first. He had already guessed what Li Guo would probably say.

"Heh, let me guess what you're going to say? You're going to say our goal was offside, right?"

Li Guo chuckled, "No, you guessed wrong. What I want to say is that just one Iran makes you so embarrassed. You are a little worse than I imagined."

"Hehe. It seems that you are much better than Iran. How many times has Iran won the Asian Cup, and how many times has your Chinese team won?"

"Those are all history, but I am really angry today. I am angry that your team was almost out, so I can't abuse you. What a pity."

Li Guo spread his arms and made a regretful expression. Seeing Li Guo's schadenfreude, Postkoglu finally broke out, and he and Li Guo scuffled.

"Damn, Ange, I have practiced Sanda, aren't you afraid?"

"I hit you."

The two wrestled on the ground, evenly matched for a moment, "Ange, I warn you, I'm going to elbow you."

"You hit."

"Hehe, I don't, you must be crying and complaining to the AFC, right, I know you very well, you are actually a chick in your bones."

"Li Guo, I found out that you have a bad mouth and nothing else."

"That's what I saved. Since you can bribe the referee, how do I know if you can bribe the police?"

"Bah, you just bought the referee."

"Haha, don't quibble, the offside is one kilometer away, and the referee is not blind."

"Are you brainless? The pitch is only 100 meters long. How could it be possible to be offside for a kilometer?"

"I am a metaphor, don't you understand metaphors?"

"I'm sorry you two, I have to clean up, can you two find another place to fight."

Li Guo and Postkoglu saw that it was a sanitation aunt, and they stood up in a hurry. The media should not let this matter know.

"We didn't fight, we were joking around," Li Guo said.

"Yeah, we were actually dating," Postkoglu said.

Auntie shook her head. In Australia, it is quite open. There is nothing shameful about men being with men.

"I don't care what you are doing, get out of here."

Li Guo said with a smile: "Fortunately, aunt is old and dim-sighted, otherwise my reputation would be ruined by you."

"Unconvinced? Then continue to fight."

"Hehe, yes, but after the finals."
