Chapter forty-fifth equal share

When both sides entered the locker room to adjust the layout, the first half was also discussed on the TV station and the Internet.

For Chinese fans, although the score is still 1:1, they are completely excited and excited to gain more.

In the last game, the Chinese team defeated the defending champion Spain 2:0, but everyone analyzed that the Spanish team was actually a paper tiger with just a prestigious appearance. The Chinese team, who fought to the death, was not surprised to defeat them.

Now, facing the host who is in full swing, it is very difficult to equalize the score if the Chinese team concedes a goal first.

Almost no one can find fault with such behavior.

Although Yan Min scored an own goal, everyone calmed down and still had to admit that the loss of the ball was destined. Regardless of whether Yan Min had that kick or not, it would be difficult to change the result.

Moreover, Yan Min also used his active fighting in the frontcourt to grab the Chinese team the opportunity to equalize the score. Such performance is impeccable.

In the rear studio, the host and the guest talked about the performance of the Chinese team in the first half. They all hoped that the Chinese team could continue their performance before the end of the first half, be patient and not anxious, because the pressure was on Brazil.

"Home play has both advantages and disadvantages." The guest's view is similar to that of Lippi. "Brazil team cannot lose, they must win. So if we can hold on to this score, as the game progresses, Brazilian players will become more and more impatient. At that time, the Chinese team will get more opportunities to counterattack..."

The fifteen-minute halftime break passed quickly, and when the players on both sides reappeared on the court, the second half was about to begin.

"... In the first half, the Chinese team even had a 57% versus 43% advantage in ball control. Looking at this statistics, it is really hard to believe that this is the ball control rate of the Chinese team and the Brazilian team... But this is true, so we are not too weak when we are against the Brazilian team. Don't just talk about the 'football kingdom'. In fact, we are evenly matched with them. In the second half, the young men of the Chinese team should not be impatient, keep confidence, and hold on. I believe that nothing is impossible!"

He Ping looked forward to the second half based on the technical statistics of the first half.

"...The Chinese team only had four shots in the first half, Brazil has as many as ten times, and the Chinese team has only two shots in the front, and Brazil has only three times that of the Chinese team..." Marcel Leif was analyzing the technical statistics of both sides in the first half. "It seems that although Brazil lost a little possession rate, the offense is even more threatening. Don't ignore it. The Chinese team's four shots had two shots in the goal frame, and the shooting rate was 50%. The shots with two shots in the goal frame range had a goal, and the success rate was 50%. This is very efficient. In fact, the Chinese team's tactics do not require them to surpass their opponents in the number of shots, and they cannot surpass Brazil in this. The defensive counterattack was originally a success rate, and in this regard, the Chinese team did a good job in the first half."

"During the break, neither side made any personnel adjustments. There are still 45 minutes left for the Brazilian team. The boys must try their best to play to their best and bring us the victory in forty-five minutes!" The Brazilian commentator loudly encouraged the Brazilian players in the commentary seat, although they could not hear anything at all...

After the second half of the game began, the Chinese team took the lead in attacking.

He Ying took the ball on the right side and wanted to cooperate with Zhou Yi. When David Ruiz was forced to come, he was knocked to the ground. The referee Weber decisively whistled and gave the Chinese team a free kick on the right side of the frontcourt.

Zhou Yi ran over to take the free kick. When he saw Zhou Yi, boos immediately sounded in the stands.

The same was true in the first half of this game. As long as Zhou Yi gets the ball, booing will be heard everywhere. Except for the second after he shoots, Brazilian fans were a little quiet due to accidents. At other times, the booing will be like Zhou Yi's appearance BGM. As long as Zhou Yi shows up, it will sound immediately.

Zhou Yi had turned a blind eye to such booing. He put on the football and the players on both sides were crowded in the penalty area.

Then he kicked the football into the penalty area.

Cesar took the lead and jumped up to hit Zhou Yi's high lob.

The football was taken by Yang Hao and then passed back to defender Rong Hao.

Zhou Yi immediately ran to Rong Hao for the ball. Rong Hao passed the football to him. Zhou Yi took the ball and turned around, quickly kicked up, and passed the football into the penalty area again.

This time, the Brazilian players were just pushing forward, and there was time behind them.

Gao Lin cleverly inserted the ball and ran backwards, just at the landing point of Zhou Yi's passing!

"The opportunity for the Chinese team!"

However, Cesar was very focused on the defense of this ball. He quickly abandoned the goal and attacked, then jumped high, and before Gao Lin got the ball, he punched the football out with one punch!

The Chinese team's offense was not completed.

Then the Brazilian team immediately changed from defense to offense and launched an offense, while the Chinese team retreated across the board.

When the Brazilian team's counterattack hit the 30-meter area of ​​the Chinese team, Marcelo's football passed the ball across, watching him passing it to Neymar, which attracted Yang Muge's high attention and he immediately posted it on.

But just when the football reached Neymar's feet, he did not catch the ball, but deliberately missed it!

The football rushed through his legs, which caught Yang Muge off guard.

"Nemar! It's pretty leaked!"

Next, behind Neymar, Fernandinho, who was inserted behind, received the ball, and then swung his foot outside the penalty area and shot!

Sun Pan made a save at the first time, but he did not encounter the football because Fernandinho's shot missed the goal...

"Good! Although there is no goal, as long as the Brazilian team continues to play like this, they will definitely score goals!" The Brazilian commentator kept giving the Brazilian audience in front of the TV.

In fact, in a sense, he was not wrong...

In the 55th minute, Brazil scored a goal.

But before Hulk's shot, his arms raised reached the football, which helped him stop the football, reduced his adjustment time, and laid a good contact for his subsequent shots.

So at the moment of his handball, all the Chinese players beside him raised their arms and signaled Hulk's handball.

The referee was very clear. Although the ball eventually flew into the Chinese team's goal, he still blew the whistle and blew the ball out.

The Brazilian fans in the stands first burst into cheers, but soon, when they found that the referee's gesture was not valid, the cheers immediately changed to booing - they were dissatisfied with the penalty.

Hulk and Scolari were also dissatisfied with each other.

Hulk patted his shoulder, indicating that the football was played here, not on the arm. It was not a handball on the shoulder, but was completely different from hitting the arm.

Scolari was also furious about the penalty off the court, believing that Weber once again succumbed to the pressure brought by Zhou Yi's remarks before the start of the game, and at a critical moment, he made a penalty that was biased towards the Chinese team.

However, the slow-motion replay of the TV broadcast from multiple angles clearly told everyone that the ball was indeed hit Hulk's arm, not his shoulder.

This ball, Hulk's handball is undoubtedly fine.

"There is no problem with Weber's penalty. Hulk is indeed handball first, otherwise how could he get such an easy shot opportunity? Don't complain, be careful that Weber gives you a yellow card..." He Ping teased.

When the game had been in progress for an hour, there were still thirty minutes before the game ended, but the score was still 1:1 and nothing changed.

The Brazilian team's offensive was very strong, but under the leadership of Zhou Yi, the Chinese team's counterattack was also very exciting.

Because they are afraid of the Chinese team's counterattack, the Brazilian team has never been able to do their best in the offense. After all, the two full-backs of the Brazilian team, whether Alves or Marcelo, are both attacking and defense. If they go up to attack, they may not be able to come back, which is a huge hidden danger to the team's defense line.

Although the Chinese team's counterattack is full of players like Yan Min and He Ying, where does the ultimate source of the Chinese team come from?

Zhouyi.

Zhou Yi is the core of the Chinese team, and his importance to this team is self-evident.

However, it is not easy for the Brazilian team to defend Zhou Yi.

Although Scolari specially arranged for Fernandinho to start and let Paulinho, who performed poorly, it still seemed very difficult for Fernandinho to defend Zhou Yi alone in the game.

The two of them had competed in the Champions League group stage, and Fernandinho was also on the court, but he was unable to defend Zhou Yi at that time, allowing Zhou Yi to lead Dortmund to win the game.

This time, the situation is even worse.

Because Zhou Yi is stronger than two years ago, his body becomes more flexible, his feet are more skilled, his handling after getting the ball is more accurate, and he gets rid of it more efficiently.

When Zhou Yi got the ball, Fernandinho rushed up from behind to try to hold Zhou Yi, but Zhou Yi quickly passed the ball out, then turned around and ran. Fernandinho lost the ball. He took advantage of the opportunity to pounce on Yang Muge who was holding the ball in front of him. As a result, Yang Muge passed the ball to Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi was left without anyone to guard him and left him behind...

Once again, when he encountered a situation like this, he did not care about Yang Muge who was holding the ball, but turned around to chase Zhou Yi. As a result, Yang Muge walked forward with the football and chased his butt, making him look like a deserter being chased...

He is always in such a dilemma and cannot get rid of it.

He tried hard to defend, but it was of little use to Zhou Yi.

In the confrontation with Zhou Yi, he seemed to have always played the role of a "loser".

Until the 60th minute, Fernandinho was unbearable for losing to Zhou Yi in the confrontation.

When he rushed to Zhou Yi who was holding the ball for the Nth time, Zhou Yi turned his back to him and first turned to the left, making Fernandinho think that Zhou Yi was going to turn around and break through from here, so he turned sideways. As a result, Zhou Yi immediately turned to the completely opposite direction, and used his right foot to push the ball behind him, and was about to break through Fernandinho.
