God of Green

Jiang Xiaolin wanted to break through the defense of these two people, unless he knocked them over by force.

That would naturally be a foul.

Therefore, Jiang Xiaolin had to slow down, control the ball around him and move forward slowly.

Bocchetti and De Celli did not rush to grab the ball, but retreated while continuing to block the route to prevent Jiang Xiaolin from easily breaking through.

As long as Jiang Xiaolin's speed was slowed down and other teammates returned to defense in time, the counterattack of the Chinese team would be curbed this time.

Moreover, Criscito, who had just been broken through by Jiang Xiaolin and fell to the ground, had also climbed up and was chasing back and approaching quickly.

In just a few seconds, Bocchetti, De Celli, and Criscito would complete the front and back double-teaming of Jiang Xiaolin, and they would definitely be able to grab the ball from Jiang Xiaolin's feet.

Although Jiang Xiaolin's dribbling was full, the opponent's steal attribute was not zero.

In this confrontation, if Jiang Xiaolin's dribbling is 20, then Bocchetti, Criscito, and De Cerri's steals and positioning attributes may be around 16 or 17 points.

Defending Jiang Xiaolin one-on-one, it is natural that Jiang Xiaolin can easily break through, just like Criscito just now, unless he performs exceptionally well, he can stop Jiang Xiaolin.

Two people may also be defeated by Jiang Xiaolin one by one because of poor cooperation.

But if three people come up at the same time, unless Jiang Xiaolin himself can show the breakthrough ability of the king of football Manadona at his peak, it is possible to break out of the three people's double-teaming.

And with Jiang Xiaolin's current thin and rare breakthrough skills, this possibility is extremely low.

Therefore, Bocchetti and De Cerri retreated while blocking the route to prevent Jiang Xiaolin from speeding up, while Jiang Xiaolin was also moving forward while looking for another opportunity.

He had discussed with Wang Yongbai before, asking Wang Yongbai to find opportunities at the right time, and to respond from the side when he counterattacked. It would be best to form a single knife, and directly shoot and score after receiving Jiang Xiaolin's pass.

However, neither of them had found a suitable opportunity before.

The situation of this game was that Italy was the main attacker and China was the main defender. In addition to Italy's strong overall strength and midfield control ability, China's counterattack opportunities were relatively rare.

In the few counterattacks, either Wang Yongbai was too far away when Jiang Xiaolin counterattacked, and it was too late to catch up.

Or when Wang Yongbai was about to move forward to catch up, Jiang Xiaolin was locked by the opponent's chain defense and had lost the ball.

As a result, the two had not realized their preset plans in the first half.

Now, the opportunity may finally appear.

Jiang Xiaolin broke through the opponent's first player Criscito and brought the ball into the Italian half, only 20 to 30 meters away from the penalty area line.

Because the last three defenders of the opponent were double-teaming him, the others had not returned to defense.

As long as there are teammates following him, Jiang Xiaolin's diagonal pass may allow the ball to approach the penalty area and pose a threat.

It depends on whether Wang Yongbai seizes this opportunity.

At this moment, when Jiang Xiaolin was slowly advancing with the ball on the right wing of the midfield while confronting two defenders of the opponent, and another defender was approaching quickly from the back, Jiang Xiaolin saw a figure wearing the red jersey of his team in the middle rushing towards the Italian penalty area at full speed.

Although there was another person in an Italian jersey chasing him closely and stuck between him and the teammate in the red jersey, the opportunity had come.

It is impossible for Italy's defense to completely miss people, and it is almost impossible to find a gap where the opponent is not marking anyone.

It is already quite difficult to have a teammate like this to catch up in time, and there is only one person from the opponent to defend side by side.

Jiang Xiaolin did not turn his head to see if the figure was Wang Yongbai, nor did he need to. That might alert the enemy and make Bocchetti and De Celi in front of him adjust their positions and block his passing route.

Because Bocchetti and De Celi put all their energy on Jiang Xiaolin, they were afraid that Jiang Xiaolin would break through if they were not careful.

Therefore, when Jiang Xiaolin saw someone following him in the middle, Bocchetti and De Celi had not noticed it yet.

The opportunity was rare and fleeting.

If he delayed any further, not only would Bocchetti and De Celi have the possibility of discovering the danger in the middle, but Criscito, who was chasing behind him, would also quickly approach and complete the double team with Bocchetti and De Celi. Jiang Xiaolin would lose the ball directly at that time, so how could he have the chance to pass the ball?

Therefore, Jiang Xiaolin immediately moved.

He first pushed the ball to the outside line, making a fake move to break through from the outside, which caused Bocchetti and De Celi in front of him to move out involuntarily.The line moved one step.

Then, Jiang Xiaolin pushed the ball to the middle again, and kicked a diagonal pass before Bocchetti and De Cegli moved back.

Jiang Xiaolin's long pass had been added to the full value of 20 by him.

The landing point of his long pass was near the top of the Italian penalty area.

In the eyes of the audience and fans, the scene was that Jiang Xiaolin was dribbling the ball on the right wing of the midfield, while Wang Yongbai in the middle and defender Motta who was returning to defense crossed the line where Jiang Xiaolin and De Cegli were, and rushed to the Italian penalty area.

Then, Jiang Xiaolin used a fake move to avoid a gap, and kicked a diagonal pass to the front court on the right side of the midfield.

The ball flew into the air, passed by the feet of central defender Bocchetti who stretched his legs to try to intercept, rose quickly, and drew a beautiful arc after flying into the air, falling to the top of the Italian penalty area.

Jiang Xiaolin's long pass skill has been fully upgraded, making his long pass in the air with a span of more than 20 meters quite accurate.

Not only did he successfully control the destination, but he also just bypassed the Italian defender Motta who was stuck between him and Wang Yongbai.

Motta saw the ball coming and tried desperately to speed up and sprint to intercept the ball in advance, but Jiang Xiaolin's pass was too accurate.

The ball flew past Motta's head 20 to 30 centimeters in the air, and landed on the head of Wang Yongbai behind him.

Wang Yongbai played a time difference when he was slightly behind half a meter two or three meters to the left of Motta. He met Jiang Xiaolin's arc pass and made a diving header at the top of the penalty area, successfully hitting the football.

The ball changed direction instantly and turned towards the Italian goal.

Goalkeeper Viviano did not stand on the goal line, but stood in the penalty area, in order to prevent Wang Yongbai from receiving the ball and forming a single shot.

Unexpectedly, Wang Yongbai didn't catch the ball at all, but directly headed the ball towards the goal with a diving header.

The ball flew high over Viviano's head. Viviano tried his best to jump up and try to knock the ball over the crossbar, but he couldn't reach the ball.

The ball passed a few centimeters above his finger, drew an oblique parabola in the air, and fell into the Italian goal along the bottom of the crossbar under the expectant eyes of tens of thousands of Chinese fans in the stadium.

In the 45th minute of the first half, Wang Yongbai received Jiang Xiaolin's long pass in the air in a counterattack and successfully broke through the Italian goal with a diving header, tying the score to 1-1.

When the ball flew into the opponent's goal, the entire Beijing Workers' Stadium exploded.

Tens of thousands of Chinese fans instantly burst into huge roars and screams, and cheered and applauded excitedly.

In front of the TV, countless fans and spectators also cheered.

In the commentary booth, the commentator of the sports channel of China National Television did not notice the ugly expression of the Italian commentator not far away. He stood up and shouted loudly:

"The ball is in! The ball is in! The ball is in... "

"The Chinese team finally scored a goal!"

"From Wang Yongbai's wonderful diving header outside the penalty area!"

"A super beautiful and super classic long-distance header!"

"From Jiang Xiaolin's long pass in the air!"

"At the end of the first half, the Chinese team relied on Jiang Xiaolin's assist to Wang Yongbai's diving header to score a goal to tie the score."

"The Chinese team tied the score, and we are back on the same starting line with Italy."

"The Chinese team still has hope!"

Yes, the Chinese team still has hope.

This goal is not just as simple as equalizing the score.

It vented the frustration of the Chinese people for the first controversial goal, and it was at the critical moment when the first half was about to end.

Without this goal, everyone would have entered the halftime break with a lagging score, and the pressure faced in the second half would be completely different.

With this goal, both the players and fans of the Chinese team would have entered the halftime break in a very happy mood and prepare for the second half of the game.

On the contrary, the goal lost at the end of the first half would also put great psychological pressure on the entire Italian team.

From leading to being tied at the last moment, I guess the Italians would not feel any psychological pleasure during the halftime break.

Especially facing a weak Asian team like the Chinese team, it was still a draw after playing half a game, I'm afraid no one can stand it.

Of course, the Chinese people don't care so much, they just want to celebrate at this time.

Not only the fans and spectators, but also the Chinese players on the field celebrated this ball like crazy.

Wang Yongbai rushed to the sidelines excitedly, jumped up, and stood on the billboard, with a domineering momentum, which made the fans even more excited.

Then, he was pulled down by the Chinese players who rushed over, pressed under them and stacked them hard.Luohan celebrates.

Jiang Xiaolin finally doesn't have to be pressed down at the bottom, he can also press other teammates to celebrate.

The Chinese team celebrated for more than half a minute, and then ended the celebration under the intervention of the referee, and returned to the field to wait for the Italian team to kick off.

However, not long after the game resumed, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, and the two sides entered the halftime break with a score of 1-1.

The fans at the scene and in front of the TV were still immersed in the joy of the goal just now, and they were discussing it heatedly.

"Oh my god, my heart is still beating, that ball just now was so wonderful."

"Yeah! Jiang Xiaolin's aerial arc ball was so accurate that it just bypassed the Italian defender who was about to clear the ball in advance, and then fell on Wang Yongbai's head."

"Wang Yongbai's diving header was so beautiful, the movement was quite stretched and looked so handsome."

"I didn't expect that we could play such an offensive combination and tie with Italy."

"It was just a half-time tie, not a final tie."

"A half-time tie was also a surprise! You know, the Italian ball didn't go in at all, and it was given to them by the referee. And our ball was real, and no one can deny it."

"That's right, that stupid referee, the Italian ball shouldn't have existed at all! Fortunately, our players were powerful and were not affected at all. They tied the score before the end of the first half."

"It's mainly because Jiang Xiaolin is so good. Whether it was the fried meatball that broke through Criscito before, or the long aerial arc ball afterwards, they all showed extraordinary "I think the pass he made just now was like Beckham's peak work."

"Beckham is nothing, I think Jiang Xiaolin is the best in the world!"

"It's not good to support your own players so much."

"Haha, I'll support him for a while, anyway, I will be a fan of Jiang Xiaolin in the future."

"Are you focusing on the wrong point? This goal was scored by Wang Yongbai."

"Well, Wang Yongbai is not bad either, and he deserves praise!"

"Not only Wang Yongbai, but everyone in the National Olympic Team performed very well today. No Otherwise, before Jiang Xiaolin assisted Wang Yongbai to score this goal, the backcourt goal had been riddled with holes by Italy. "

"Yes, the Olympic team was in great form today, very similar to the first and second group matches. If they continue to play in this state, the Olympic team may really eliminate Italy and advance to the semi-finals!"

"I'm excited just thinking about it."

"I'm looking forward to it!"

...

In the locker room of the Chinese team, there was laughter and joy. The Chinese team, which tied the score, was in a very good mood, both the coach and the players.

Everyone praised Jiang Xiaolin's wonderful arc pass in the air, and also praised Wang Yongbai for his timely forward insertion and receiving Jiang Xiaolin's pass.

Especially Wang Yongbai's last long-distance diving header outside the penalty area was too spectacular.

Wang Yongbai, who scored the key goal to tie the score, was also very excited. After thanking his teammates for their congratulations, he said:

"Xiao Lin had long told me to find opportunities to advance, receive his pass and shoot, but I never found any opportunities. Just now, I saw Zheng Zhi shovel the ball and immediately felt that a counterattack might be formed. I looked at Xiao Lin's position again and felt that I could keep up with his pace, so I resolutely advanced."

"Although there was Italian full-back Motta following me to defend, I also fought hard this time. I was not thrown off by him, but rushed to the Italian penalty area with him."

"I don't know if Xiao Lin can pass the ball, but I rushed forward anyway."

"Unexpectedly, Xiao Lin really passed the ball, and it just bypassed Motta's head and fell in front of me."

"However, at that height, I couldn't stop the ball and make a one-on-one ground ball. "

"How could I think so much at that time? Anyway, I knew that I couldn't waste the opportunity. "

"So, without thinking, I jumped out with my whole body, stared at the ball and headed it into the Italian goal. "

"You don't know. When I was still in the air, watching the ball pass over the head of goalkeeper Viviano and fall into the opponent's goal, I was almost suffocated. "

"I didn't blink when I fell to the ground, and I kept staring at the ball until it fell into the opponent's goal. "

"Such an important goal was scored by me, and my heart is still pounding now!"

"Of course, I must thank Xiaolin, the ball was passed so well and so accurately."

After speaking, Wang Yongbai pulled Jiang Xiaolin next to him and hugged him tightly again to thank him for his assist.

Jiang Xiaolin smiled and said, "Everyone contributed to this goal, not justI deserve it alone. Zheng Zhi's scramble in the backcourt and Hao Junmin's pass were all part of this goal. Moreover, if we didn't defend hard in the backcourt and lose too many balls, it would be useless for us to score this goal. "

Wang Yongbai nodded and said, "Not bad, not bad, the credit belongs to everyone!"

The whole locker room was filled with laughter, and everyone was very happy and cheerful.
