Before Endo Satohito was preparing to pass the ball, he looked up and observed the situation, believing that the direction he was going to pass the ball was his teammate, and there was absolutely no Chinese player wearing a red jersey. He was very sure of this. After all, red and blue are very different, and he is not red and blue blind.

But when he was pressing against Chinese players, he looked down at the football and then passed the football out. Then he looked up to observe his passing target. As a result, on that route, he saw the red clothes - Zhou Yi stretched out his foot and stopped the football!

He widened his eyes, and could not imagine when Zhou Yi appeared there. How long did it take just a bow? How could Zhou Yi appear there in such a short time?

However, the Chinese players besieging him reacted much faster than him.

Seeing Zhou Yi intercepting the ball, Hao Junmin and He Ying quickly dispersed to both sides, leaving Endo Polyen alone.

Zhou Yi, who got the ball, did not hesitate and kicked the ball directly to He Ying's diagonally.

He Ying didn't even need to slow down, but accelerated to catch up and received the football.

At this time, he can already face the Japanese team's back line directly.

The Japanese defender, Maya Yoshida, was standing in front of him.

Maya Yoshida, in fact, the national players who came from the Chinese national Olympic team to the national team should be familiar with it, because when the two Chinese and Japanese national Olympic teams met in the Olympic finals, the captain of the Japanese national Olympic team was Maya Yoshida, the then-year-old player.

Faced with Yoshida Maya's obstruction, He Ying shook his upper body, his shoulders sank to the left, but his right foot was outside the instep, but he pushed the ball to the right, and at the same time, an acceleration made him rush into the penalty area!

"He Ying broke through!" Duan Xin, the commentator on the scene, shouted excitedly.

Deafening cheers also sounded in the stands of Helong Stadium.

He Ying, who broke through, shot with cheers.

The football was slightly higher than the crossbar and flew out of the bottom line from the back point...

"Oh! What a pity! The ball didn't go in!"

The Japanese commentator exclaimed: "It's so dangerous! It's so dangerous! It's a little higher!"

As the game started, the Chinese team had a threatening shot first, which immediately excited the Chinese fans in the stands. Even if the ball did not score, everyone was very happy.

This shows the momentum of the Chinese team!

In such a game, momentum is often the most important.

※※※

He Ying's shot attracted everyone's attention and discussion. Zhou Yi's previous strange performance was temporarily put on hold by everyone, and no one cared.

Next, the game continues.

When the Japanese team saw that the Chinese team used a shot to threaten their goal, they also knew the importance of momentum. If the Chinese team suppressed the momentum, it would be difficult to play in the next game.

In order not to lose to the Chinese team in terms of momentum, they certainly have to make some reactions.

Shinji Kagawa answered with a long shot outside the penalty area.

This was a long shot with high quality. Sun Pan didn't dare to use his palm when he was snatching the ball, but instead hit the football with his two fists.

The football was hit to the wing, which made the Japanese forward, Ryuichi Maeda, just pulled it to the wing and received the ball.

After adjustment, he made a cross.

Guo Nu rushed in front of Shinji Okazaki, jumped up and pushed the football out.

Then the Chinese team took advantage of the situation to fight back. Hao Junmin passed the ball across the goal, and He Ying was a little late and could not meet the football!

"Oh! He Ying! If he hit this goal, he would be a sure goal!"

Duan Xin was almost slapped in her thigh.

He Ying, who missed this opportunity, was also very upset. He slapped the ground hard before he got up from the ground.

Although there was no goal, the Japanese team was still very afraid of the Chinese team's rapid counterattack. Because the Chinese team has the advantage of speed, the Japanese team paid great attention to the counterattack before the game.

The Japanese team launched a large-scale attack just now and was hit by the Chinese team. They quickly made adjustments and returned to the road of passing the control rhythm back and forth. This was also what Zacheroni asked them to do before the game.

When the Japanese team fell down in the middle and backcourt, the Chinese team rushed forward and pressed, just like a mad dog.

The game returned to what had just begun.

At this time, someone noticed that Zhou Yi Deke was "lazy" and "negative".

Are you really playing a big shot?

Duan Xin doesn't believe that Zhou Yi will be a big shot, but he wants to give a reasonable explanation. He can't turn a blind eye to this, right?

Fans can see such an obvious thing.

If he pretends not to see it, he will be scolded to death by then.

So he was observing Zhou Yi very seriously.

He really saw something.

He found that Zhou Yi was not lazy, he was running, but he was not going to directly pounce on the opponent's ball player, but his movement range was not small and his movement speed was not slow...

At this moment, on the court, a Japanese player sent the ball to his teammates again.

Almost at the same time, Zhou Yi suddenly took a step and stretched his foot to stop the football!

Duan Xin had a light bulb in her mind that was lit at the same time - he understood what was going on!

But now, he didn't have time to explain to everyone, but shouted excitedly: "Zhou Yi! He intercepted the Japanese team's pass in the midfield again!"

This time, because the ball interception was near the middle circle, Zhou Yi did not pass the football immediately, but chose to control the ball.

Because there is no good opportunity now, if he rashly passes the football, it will be just returning the football to the Japanese team.

Of course he wouldn't hesitate if he had a good chance, just like the kick he just passed on to He Ying. But if there was no good chance, keeping the football on his side was the most correct choice.

In football games, there are too many examples of opponents making mistakes in the backcourt, which leads to the change of possession. As a result, the offensive party fails to handle the ball well because of impatientness, resulting in losing opportunities.

Seeing that Zhou Yi was not in a hurry to launch a counterattack, Duan Xin began to explain to everyone what he had just realized: "When the Chinese team surrounded the Japanese team, Zhou Yi seemed to be an alternative. But he was not lazy. We found that Zhou Yi always changed positions on the court, and his running position was not aimless, or a symbolic run. He was looking for the route of the Japanese team's passing. In this way, he could intercept the Japanese team's passing by in advance by knowing the Japanese team's passing route. Just like the ball now... Of course, He Ying's shot after the opening also came from Zhou Yi's front-court interception... This is proof that Zhou Yi played with his brain!"

In fact, it was not only Duan Xin who saw it, but also Chinese and Japanese journalists in the media table.

They talked a lot: "It seems that Zhou Yi didn't just happen to appear in that position, right?"

"Well, I can say I'm lucky once, twice? And I bet, maybe three or four more times in the future..."

"I also think Zhou Yi did it on purpose. He looks very familiar with the passing route of the Japanese team..."

"This is Zhou Yi's ability. I remember that he occasionally performed like this when he was in Dortmund?"

"No wonder Zhou Yi doesn't have to run like a mad dog. He goes directly to grab the Japanese player who takes the ball. Maybe it's not necessarily a good thing..."

Some people also analyzed Zhou Yi's actions on Weibo, and they quickly gained recognition from most people.

Of course, everyone would not be willing to think that Zhou Yi didn't go up and robbed because he was a big shot. With Zhou Yi's image and status in the minds of fans, it would be impossible for him to do such a thing. So everyone believes in the current explanation, and this explanation also reflects Zhou Yi's awesomeness...

※※※

The Japanese team then discovered that Zhou Yi's running position was very weird.

This does not require Japanese players to pass the football to Zhou Yi's feet to verify every time.

During the process of falling down, the Japanese players sometimes wanted to pass the ball, but found that Zhou Yi was stuck on the pass route he was optimistic about, so they could only withdraw their original idea, protect Ichigo's ball, and pass the ball to other directions.

After more times like this, the Japanese players of course discovered that there was actually a lot of work behind Zhou Yi's seemingly "lazy" running position...

So the Japanese team had to temporarily adjust their tactics, no longer put too much in the back, but instead hit the football forward.

In this way, the two teams will be fighting against each other.

Because both sides have qualified, the winner and loser do not affect the biggest goal, so they can be relatively open.
