Champion’s Heart

Although Robben created a murderous opportunity in the first five minutes, although the Chinese team made a passing error in the first five minutes and almost lost the ball.

But when the Dutch team thought they could replicate Chile's start against the Chinese team in the last game, they found that the situation was somewhat different from what they had imagined.

They encountered very tenacious resistance from the Chinese team.

This is mainly reflected in the intensity of the fight.

According to statistics, the country with the highest average height in the world is the Netherlands.

Although there was some physical gap between the two sides, the Chinese team made up for their physical deficiencies with running and fighting spirit. They bravely made physical contact with the Dutch team.

Almost every ball must be contested.

This was something the Dutch team did not expect before the game. They did not expect that the Chinese team would be so tough.

In fact, this is exactly what Lippi repeatedly told the players before the game. Against a team like the Netherlands, you must be tough enough and not be overwhelmed by their momentum. If you are oppressed by their momentum, it will be difficult to stand up.

The Chinese team relied on its tenacious and tough defense to create a lot of trouble for the Dutch team's offense.

The Dutch team's offense was difficult to organize and successfully advanced to the Chinese team's goal.

He Ping also praised the Chinese team's performance during this period: It can be seen that the national team has very seriously summarized the gains and losses of the previous game. They have obviously strengthened their defense after the opening, and at the same time everyone has I quickly entered the game state without any distraction...

The tenacious defense prevented the Chinese team from conceding a goal in the first fifteen minutes this time.

Many Chinese fans who were worried that the Chinese team would make the same mistake were relieved.

And the Chinese team not only defended, but also tried to perform on the offensive end.

In the 16th minute, the Chinese team hit the football to the front of the Dutch team's penalty area, and then Wu Lei made a pass from the right. Zheng Zhi stepped in and received Wu Lei's cross on the line of the penalty area and shot!

The Dutch center back De Vrij stretched out his leg to block the ball and blocked the ball out of the baseline. The Chinese team won a corner kick.

However, this time the Chinese team did not threaten the Dutch team's goal from the corner kick. Instead, it allowed the Dutch team to launch a quick attack.

The Chinese team's left back Rong Hao, who was chasing back, had to pull down Robben when he was about to speed up on the wing. The referee awarded the Dutch team a free kick and showed Rong Hao a yellow card. This was also the case for China. The team's first yellow card in this World Cup.

Rong Hao can't help it. Robben's speed has already increased. If he doesn't foul, he might let Robben dribble the ball directly into the penalty area... He Ping shook his head.

Then Robben took the free kick from the wing and sent the football to the goal. Van Persie got ahead of Guo Nu and nodded the ball into the goal!

However, the ball failed to break through Sun Pan's fingers. He pushed the ball too far, and Sun Pan caught him.

In fact, it was very difficult to save this ball, but Sun Pan still took advantage of the situation and lay on the ground holding the football, staying for two more seconds. He is using all available means to delay the game. The goal of the Chinese team in this game is to at least draw with the Dutch team. The score is now 0:0. Of course, he must try to make the game time go faster...

Just when the Chinese fans were happy with the national team's defense, in the 20th minute, the Chinese team made a long pass from the backcourt and wanted to hit the football forward to find He Ying. But Dutch center back Blind got stuck, jumped up and headed the ball back.

After Robben received the ball in the center circle, he accelerated forward.

Relying on his speed advantage, he quickly broke through Feng Xiaoting and ran towards the Chinese team's penalty area!

Robben! It's Robben again! He's so fast! Many Chinese players were chasing after him, but they couldn't catch up! He Ping exclaimed.

At this time, Guo Nu, who was trailing behind, was originally guarding against Peisi, but now he definitely couldn't care about Van Persie. He left the Dutch forward and rushed towards Robben.

Facing the rushing Guo Nu, Robben moved the football slightly to the left, dribbled the ball into the penalty area, and then shot without adjusting!

Guo Nu threw himself out and stretched out his feet to block Robben's shot.

His foot did touch the football, but it did not block the football from the bottom line. After the ball hit the sole of his foot, it changed its line and continued to fly towards the goal!

Sun Pan originally planned to hit the near corner - Robben also shot from the near corner.

But the football was touched by Guo Nu, and then flew to the far corner by accident!

Sun Pan, who had already fallen towards the near corner, could only kick the football with his feet, hoping to block it with his feet.

As a result, the football became more cunning after being touched by Guo Nu, and he failed to touch the football.

The football finally entered the goal from the far corner...

In the twenty-first minute, the Chinese team fell behind!

Hey! He Ping sighed heavily. We still lost the ball! This ball is the ultimate expression of Robben's personal ability. His speed and dribbling rhythm are so good. The last shot was blocked by Guo Nu but hit a dead end. Even Sun Pan There is nothing we can do... With a perfect opponent and enough bad luck, the Chinese team lost this goal and it was very helpless...

※※※

Robben, who scored, opened his arms and ran to the corner flag area to celebrate the goal.

Behind him, Guo Nu and Sun Pan were lying on the ground and did not get up.

Guo Nu covered his face with his hands. He knew that he had touched the ball and changed the line. If he didn't touch him, he might still be jumped out by Sun Pan...

In this game, if you want to maximize the hope of drawing with the Netherlands, you must first not concede the ball.

But now, only twenty minutes into the game, the goal was conceded, only nine minutes later than the previous game...

Guo Nu slowly got up from the ground and saw Sun Pan, who was also standing up slowly. His mouth squirmed and he decided to apologize to Sun Pan. He was the one who caused Sun Pan to lose the ball in two consecutive games. And didn’t Sun Pan swear before the game not to concede the ball?

So he murmured: That...isn't it...

Unexpectedly, Sun Pan waved his hand and seemed not to be angry about losing the ball: It's okay. At least it was nine minutes later than the last game, which is an improvement.

Then he clapped his hands hard and shouted to his teammates: It's just a goal, no big deal! Let's just equalize!

Then he pointed at He Ying: Aren't you awesome, Lao He? Now it's time to test you! Show some real skills!

He Ying curled his lips and did not respond to Sun Pan. He turned around and strode towards the center circle.

And Sun Pan was still roaring behind him: Cheer up, everyone! Kill Holland! What are you afraid of? Don't be afraid! Just do it! Just fight! Fight them to death! Fuck!!

He waved his fists as if he was really going to rush out and fight the Dutch team...

His roar echoed in the ears of every Chinese player. Every Chinese player who heard his roar could not help but clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

If we concede first in two games in a row, will we admit defeat?

No!

As Sun Pan said, now that we are here, what else do we have to worry about? Positive!

※※※

When the soldiers of the Dutch team surrounded Robben and ran back to the half-court, they were still immersed in the joyful atmosphere of taking the lead.

I didn't notice the expressions on the faces of the Chinese players next to me at all.

They didn't feel the pain and frustration after losing the ball. On the contrary, they had a fire in their eyes, eager to burn everything they saw.

They were already in their position, waiting for the Dutch team to come back and the game could start again.

※※※

When the game restarted, He Ping was still discussing the missed goal with Gong Lei. In their opinion, the Chinese team's luck was really bad. If Guo Nu didn't block the ball, Robben might not have been able to score. Where is the ball...

That's how football matches are... Finally, Football Poet He Ping sighed and said with emotion. Not every fate-changing moment happens with thunder and lightning and background music. Sometimes, inadvertently, an accident may change fate... Before this goal was lost, everyone was happy. Based on the performance of the Chinese team in this game, no one would have thought that the goal would come so quickly... It was like a slap in the face to everyone...

In his poetic and philosophical narration, after the kick-off, the Chinese team passed a series of passes and hit the football across the center line.

Zheng Zhi took the ball slightly to the right of the midfield.

The Dutch players didn't immediately come to press him. They just scored a goal and seemed to be still immersed in the joy. They didn't come back to their senses and didn't take the Chinese team captain in front of them seriously.

Zheng Zhi raised his head and glanced at the situation in front, and then suddenly made a long pass!

The football flew over half the stadium and reached the left rib of the Dutch team's penalty area.

Because the height was too high, the Dutch team's center backs in the penalty area were unable to jump up to clear the ball. They could only run back following the football.

That place was far away from the goal and the angle was a bit off. It was not a place that could directly threaten the goal. The Dutch defenders didn't pay much attention to it.

But when their center back, No. 3 De Vrij, turned around, he saw the Chinese team's He Ying swinging his left foot while running!

Looking at this posture, he is not stopping the ball, but volleying directly!

While He Ying was running to the outside, he swung his left foot and hit the football!

He didn't exert any particular force, and even withdrew his force when he kicked the football.

After the football was picked by him, it drew an arc and flew towards the goal.

Next to He Ying, Devry, who was closest to him, faced this sudden volley. He didn't even have time to make any movement to block it. He just turned around reflexively, as if he wanted to use his body. Come and block this shot.

But how is this possible?

The Dutch goalkeeper Sillisen jumped into the air, raised his arms, and wanted to shoot the volley, but his speed was still a little slow. The football had already passed through his body, flew behind him, and then hit him head-on. The lower edge of the crossbar bounced to the ground, and when it bounced up again, it was stopped by the net at the top...

Eh? Eh!!! Beautiful!!! He Ping, who had just been lamenting the uncertainty of fate, suddenly roared. Because there was no warning, his voice didn't even have a chance to warm up, and he roared directly. Beautiful!! Beautiful!! He Ying!!! World wave!!! Well-deserved world wave!!! Wonderful goal!! Crucial goal! The Chinese team equalized the score in just one minute!!

Gong Lei was also very excited: What a ball! What a ball! He Ying's shot was really beautiful! It's not easy for such a difficult direct volley to hit the goal frame! He suppressed it Football, control your strength...Although the angle is not exactly the same, this ball does remind me of Van Basten's extraordinary kick in the 1988 European Cup! It's amazing!

The atmosphere at Bellario Stadium was ignited by He Ying's wonderful volley.

The Chinese fans cheered, and even many neutral Brazilian fans cheered and applauded He Ying's beautiful shot.

Brazilian fans advocate offensive football and like beautiful football. He Ying's beautiful goal won the love and support of many Brazilian fans for the Chinese team.

After scoring the goal, He Ying turned around and ran towards his teammates, calling for everyone to come up and celebrate the goal.

Sun Pan also ran up with open arms and participated in the collective celebration.

All the players of the Chinese team were gathered together, and no one was left outside.

When they encounter difficulties, they unite and share the joys and sorrows.

When the celebration ended, He Ying pointed at Sun Pan, which was a response to Sun Pan's words just now.

Sun Pan chuckled: Without my aggressive skills, how could you have entered such a beautiful world? You have to thank me!

He Ying slapped Sun Pan hard on the back: Thank you!

Sun Pan grinned in pain and ran back to his goal...

The Chinese team players laughed when they saw this scene.
