Football: The immortal legend on the green field

In the 33rd minute of the first half, Deng Zhuoxiang was injured and left the field. Ali Han replaced Deng Zhuoxiang with Hao Junmin.

There was another strange thing that puzzled the media. The on-site commander of the Chinese team was replaced by Dutchman Ali Haan, while the head coach of the Chinese team, Krauchen, mysteriously disappeared.

Deng Zhuoxiang returned to the bench with tears streaming down his face, his heart filled with resentment.

But the subsequent plot made Deng Zhuoxiang feel fortunate that he died early.

In the 37th minute, Ozil passed the ball from the middle to Cacau on the right, who showed great dribbling skills after receiving the ball.

Kaokaoyan dribbled the ball from the wing, knocked down Zhang Fanlin and Lu Jianjun in succession, and shot at a 3-degree angle from 30 meters away from the right goal post. The ball slipped past the goal, brushed the left post and flew out of the bottom line.

Although the ball did not go in, the previous escape and dribble were quite beautiful. This time goalkeeper Zeng Cheng did not make any mistakes. He opened his arms and blocked the legendary shot of German striker Cacau.

Two minutes later, Hao Junmin kicked Kroos down in a very covert way while defending. The German players surrounded the referee, but the referee Robbins only gave Hao Junmin a verbal warning and did not punish Hao Junmin for an action that was clearly a yellow card foul.

The German team launched a fierce attack during this period, trying to equalize the score before the end of the first half.

In the 41st minute of the game, Ramyan broke through on the right, and under the pressure of Tan Wangsong, he made a long arc pass and sent the ball into the penalty area. Podolski headed the ball and Ozil followed up with a powerful shot, but Tiote's flying kick from the sky blocked the ball out of the baseline.

At this time, both sides were already angry. Tiote did not retract his feet when he flew to clear the ball. This action obviously could have caused serious injury to Ozil.

The referee blew the whistle. Several Chinese defenders thought that the referee was going to award a penalty kick and were about to gather around to argue. However, the referee blew the whistle and called on Podolski to push someone when he headed the ball. He awarded the Chinese team an indirect free kick and gave Tiote another verbal warning.

According to the slow-motion replay, Tiote's flying kick was so good that even Ghost Kicks Seven would feel ashamed, and even Wong Fei-hung would have to call him Master. It was obviously a malicious foul, but it happened after the German committed the first foul.

Ozil had no choice but to get up from the ground and retreat to defend while cursing.

In the last minute of the first half, the Chinese team found a good opportunity in the frontcourt. Shen Bin dribbled the ball in the middle and passed it to Chen Tao on the right. Chen Tao took two steps on the right and made a cross. Jiang Ning got the ball in front of the goal and shot it, but unfortunately the ball was too straight and was saved by the goalkeeper.

In the first half stoppage time, Tiote, who had just escaped a danger, broke the law again and used his hands and feet to intercept Steinsteiger's pass. This time the referee was not merciful and turned two yellow cards into one red card. China's defensive midfielder was sent off the field. This was the second player on the Chinese team to clock out.

After that, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half of the game.

Back in the locker room, Tiote sat in the corner with his head in his hands. Shen Bin walked up to him and patted his shoulder to comfort him.

While the players were resting and replenishing their energy, Ali Han took the time to give them the final instructions: "Don't be anxious, don't rush to attack now."

"We have to focus on defense now. After we get the ball in the backcourt, we should control the ball as much as possible and try to delay the game. Although we are leading now, we have one less player on the field, so everyone needs to run more to make up for the disadvantage in numbers."

"If the opponent scores again, we have to go into overtime. There is no golden or silver goal system in overtime, and it has to be played for the full 30 minutes. So you have to allocate your energy reasonably. Even if it takes a penalty kick if necessary!"

"The defenders should handle the ball more decisively and try to give them fewer free kicks on both sides of the penalty area!" Ali Han used body language to express his meaning in a slightly exaggerated manner.

"Do you all understand? Remember this is your most important game. No one should give up until the end! Okay, time's up! Get up! Go to the game!" Ali Han waved his hand like he was driving ducks for the players to stand up and move around a little to avoid cramps.

At the start of the second half, Li Yan scanned the faces of the national youth team players with a telescope. "It was still the same expression. Although they were obviously exhausted, their eyes were still very stubborn.

Just into the third minute of the second half, German captain Felipe Lahm broke through on the left. Tan Wangsong defended him closely. Lahm made a fake move to create a gap and passed the ball to Cacau in front of the goal. Cacau had his back to the goal and Feng Xiaoting's close defense prevented him from turning around. Cacau then made a back-hook shot in the air.

The ball hit Lu Jianjun and changed direction. Goalkeeper Zeng Cheng was powerless. With a "bang", the crossbar rejected the German and the German team missed a great opportunity to equalize the score.

Bai Yuefeng kicked the ball to the frontcourt, Hao Junmin received the ball and counterattacked, forming a two-on-three situation in the frontcourt. Shen Bin and Chen Tao stepped forward to support, but under the interference of Trokhov's constant pulling movements, Shen Bin's speed slowed down.

Hao Junmin passed the ball to Jiang Ning, but unfortunately Jiang Ning lost the battle for half of the ball with Tasci, and the ball was intercepted by the German defender. The ball came to Steinsteiger's feet, and Steinsteiger immediately launched a counterattack. Jiang Ning rushed forward. He knew that his loss of the ball might give the Germans a good counterattack opportunity. He reached out and knocked Steinsteiger down from behind. The referee took out the sixth yellow card of the game.

In the 57th minute of the game, Shen Bin received a diagonal pass from Tan Wangsong outside the German team's penalty area. Facing the double defense of Steinsteiger and Trokhov, he made two consecutive feints to shake off his opponent and stepped into the penalty area. At this time, three German team defenders had already been attracted in front of Shen Bin.

Shen Bin passed the ball back with his heel to Feng Xiaoting who was following him. Feng Xiaoting made a powerful long shot, but the German goalkeeper flew over and pressed the ball to the ground.

Two minutes later, the Germans were not willing to be outdone and Stainsteiger responded with a super long-range heavy artillery shot of more than 40 meters.

In the 58th minute of the game, the climax came. Shen Bin brought the ball to the front of the German team's penalty area again and completed a beautiful two-pass cooperation with Hao Junmin. Hao Junmin took the ball and was tackled to the ground by Steinsteiger. Steinsteiger stepped forward and apologized to Hao Junmin who was lying on the ground.

The referee had not yet put down his hand that was holding the yellow card when another player fell to the ground. The referee hurriedly looked at the linesman. As seven or eight players from both teams were gathered together in a mess, the linesman helplessly said that he didn't see it clearly either. The chief referee, Brazilian Robbins, had to look up at the replay on the big screen.

It turned out that Shen Bin was preparing to take a free kick. The Germans had suffered a loss once, so Tashche hugged Shen Bin tightly to prevent Shen Bin from taking the free kick. Shen Bin hit Tashche's forehead with his head, and Tashche fell down.

The referee showed the eighth yellow card of the game, and Shen Bin spread his hands helplessly.

"Shit! I miscalculated. How come the Dutch took such clear photos of me?"

At this time, the mentality of the players on the field has undergone subtle changes, and the scale of their movements is getting bigger and bigger.
