Strong Waist

Chapter 8 Pressing and kicking!

Since it was a warm-up match, there wasn’t that much of a competitive nature.

There was no process of walking out of the players' tunnel. After changing clothes, they went directly to their respective halves.

Chinese team (4-3-3):

Goalkeeper: Tong Lei.

Defenders: Zhuo Zhuo, Gao Leiliang, Liu Kairui, Guan Zhe.

Midfielder: Guo Liang, Le Kai, Yu Hao.

Forwards: Chen Man, Wang Yi, Jia Zhenhua.

Japan (4-2-3-1):

Goalkeeper: Eiji Kawashima.

Defenders: Nagatomo Yuto, Morishige Masato, Yoshida Maya, Uchida Atsuhito.

Midfielder: Shinji Kagawa, Makoto Hasebe, Keisuke Honda, Hotaru Yamaguchi, Shinji Okazaki.

Forward: Osako Yuya.

"Hello, viewers, this is CCTV's broadcast of the World Cup warm-up match, the match between the Chinese team and the Japanese team."

"The one wearing the red jersey and shorts is the Chinese team, the one wearing the blue jersey and white shorts is the Japanese team!"

"Both sides have come up with their own lineups that are at the bottom of the box. Obviously they are very concerned about this warm-up match."

After Duan Xuan finished speaking, his commentary partner Tao Wei also said:

"Shuai Liu's Chinese team is going to play defensive counterattack. It can be seen from this position that Lucai and Liu Kairui form a protective role in the midfield and backcourt. At the same time, Lucai's ball-playing ability is used to find Chen Man or Jia Zhenhua. Use the speed of the two to advance forward at high speed to form a quick counterattack formation.”

"Lucky is a key point in this lineup!"

"Lucky's performance is needed on both offense and defense. We can focus more on Lucky to see if he can continue his excellent performance in the Premier League."

As soon as he finished speaking, the game had already begun!

The Japanese team took the lead.

After the Japanese team kicked off, Wang Yi, Chen Man and other forwards rushed over and began to press in the opponent's half.

This high-position pressing tactic always puts a lot of pressure on the opponent.

Of course, in the past, the Chinese team had insufficient knowledge in high-position pressing and failed to form a coordinated pressing.

But since Lucky joined and made some changes, their pressing pressure has been sufficient.

As soon as Kagawa Shinji got the ball, Jia Zhenhua and Guo Liang rushed over, trying to counterattack on the spot.

Shinji Kagawa looked up and wanted to pass forward, but he saw Lucky blocking the passing path.

"return!"

Someone greeted him, and Kagawa Shinji immediately responded.

Lucky also moved slowly towards the middle, but his head kept swinging to observe.

After the opening, the Chinese team continued to press in the frontcourt and was under great pressure to reinforce.

This made the Japanese team a little uncomfortable. After all, the Chinese team did not play pressing like this.

As soon as the game started, the Chinese team started to use a pressing style, which surprised many people.

They thought that the Chinese team would maintain the Italian-style turtle shell tactics, but they did not expect that the Chinese team would play quite proactively.

Duan Xuan was even more surprised and said, "The Chinese team is pressing forward! Although the Japanese team is passing the ball, you can see that every pass they make is forced to move towards their own backcourt. The pressure from the Chinese boys is very strong." !”

The Chinese fans at the scene also burst into cheers.

Even though it was just beginning, the game turned out to be much more exciting than they imagined.

"It's numb, that's right! Just press the little Japanese and kick!"

"Press up!!"

"Fuck them!!"

Although it was a warm-up match, the fans were cheering vigorously due to the ethnic conflicts between the two countries.

They badmouthed Japan while encouraging the Chinese team.

In the competition field, Lucai observed the situation on the field and said secretly:

It’s time to come into play, right?

Sure enough, the Japanese team couldn't bear the disturbance and passed the ball towards the central defender, and the central defender stepped forward directly, trying to find Shinji Kagawa.

Kagawa Shinji ran forward, his eyes constantly judging the landing point.

Stretching out his feet, Shinji Kagawa stopped steadily.

But just as he finished stopping the ball, a huge force suddenly came from his shoulder.

When the 68-kg Shinji Kagawa faced the 85-kg Lucky, he had no ability to resist. He was squeezed out of the ball control circle with one push.

Lucky, on the other hand, stretched out his feet to hook the ball with his toes, supported it with his hips, drew a semicircle on the lawn, and completed the steal!

"Maldini-style steal! Lucky!"

Duan Xuan roared and said excitedly, "As soon as the game started, Lucai showed excellent prediction and defensive abilities!"

The Chinese fans at the scene were also very excited. They screamed and shouted Lucky's name.

After Lucky completed the steal, he stood up and directly used the instep of his outside foot to swipe the ball diagonally.

At the same moment, Chen Man suddenly made a step to the left, attracting Nagatomo Yuto to step to the left, then suddenly retracted his feet and ran in a straight line.

Although it was only a second of delay, when Nagatomo Yudu reacted, he could only see Chen Man's back.

"Chen Man!!!!!!——"

"Speed up!!!"

Chen Man ran at an astonishing speed. Many people said that this guy came from track and field to play football.

But it has to be said that this guy's powerful explosive power and speed have created a great threat for the Chinese team on the wing.

For example, this time, after Chen Man stopped Lucai's ball, he was already facing the opponent's central defender.

Before Nagatomo Yuto could catch up, Chen Man directly made a pass.

It's just that this pass was a bit rough. Wang Yi ran past it.

But even so, Wang Yi suddenly turned around and flew into the air, finishing the shot with an upside-down golden hook.

"Wang Yi!! Shoot!!!"

Duan Xuan shouted loudly and immediately looked at the opponent's goal with wide eyes.

The ball flew to the far corner, hit the goal post with a 'ding' sound, and bounced into the penalty area.

The Japanese team's center back Maya Yoshida looked at Guo Liang who was trying to rush into the penalty area, and kicked the ball directly towards the sidelines.

Complete the rescue first and then talk.

The ball flew out of the sideline, but the Chinese team's offense still scared the Japanese team into a cold sweat.

"Ah~~~~~" Duan Xuan said with a look of pity; "Wang Yi failed to complete the goal. In a hurry, Wang Yi completed the shot with an upside-down golden hook."

Tao Wei grinned and said, "Chen Man's pass was a bit rough. He ran behind the emperor."

Duan Xuan also said with a smile: "It's indeed a bit rough!"

During the game, Chen Man's face also turned red. He lowered his head and touched his sneakers in embarrassment, as if everything was a problem with the sneakers.

But soon, Lucky started roaring.

"Damn you, didn't you wash your feet last night? Passing the ball stinks!"

Chen Man knew he was in the wrong, but he didn't want to admit defeat, so he held his neck and shouted: "You take care of me!"

"You're wasting an opportunity, go get a bottle of water and wash your feet!"

Lucky still cursed.

Chen Man was wrong, but he was a little afraid of Lucai, so he didn't dare to talk back.

I could only keep mumbling in my mouth.

"It's just a bad pass, that's all!"

However, Chen Man also understood that he had to adjust his state.

If it weren't for me, the ball would have been there just now.

Although the offense failed to return a goal, it still surprised the commentators and fans at the scene.

In the past, the Chinese team could not play this kind of counterattack rhythm.

In other words, they couldn't play well against Japan.

But the existence of Lucky laid the foundation for all this.

As long as Lucky can grab the ball, or someone else grabs the ball, Lucky can complete the pass on the counterattack on the spot.

Duan Xuan said excitedly: "It's activated! Chen Man's speed and Wang Yi's shooting ability! In the past, the Chinese team always racked their brains to think of how to activate the abilities of these two people, but Lucai has accomplished it all. !”

"Many people have been saying before that Lucky is the most important link and gear of the Chinese team. Now the gears have finally been spliced and started to drive the overall situation!"

Speaking of excitement, Duan Xuan shouted; "Chinese team! Boys! Go for it!!"

The fans at the scene also continued to express various emotions.

“Awesome!!!”

"This long ball is so beautiful!"

"Stealing + counterattack, the tactics are perfect!"

"Let me just say it, Lucky is the key part, so damn strong!"

"The Premier League champion midfielder is making trouble!"

"Still the Premier League Silver Boot, with the most assists!"

"I want to see Lucky connect directly with the Emperor, it will be so beautiful!"

The eyes of Chinese fans began to shine with passion, and their eyes wandered over Lucky, Wang Yi, Chen Man and others.

They seem to have seen a bright future, and the bright sunshine is shining on the bright future!

Everything is possible!
