Chapter 342 Don't underestimate the enemy, I'm serious
Although Indonesian fans were unable to enter the stadium to watch the game because of the AFC punishment in this game, this did not stop them from cheering for their national team.
In the bars and restaurants on the streets, there are a large number of fans gathered to watch the game.
They were the ones who shouted the slogan of defeating the Chinese team before the game.
They wore the jerseys of the Indonesian national team and the Indonesian flag. They sang and danced in front of the TV since the start of the game, and were noisy.
But at the eleventh minute, everyone shut up.
They looked at the TV screen in amazement, unable to believe that their national team had conceded the ball so quickly.
Didn’t you agree to defend and counterattack?
The defensive counterattack was lost in the eleven minutes of the game!
Their 8:0 plan was ruined at the eleventh minute of the game.

"Gao Zheng! Gao Zheng!! Oh oh oh oh oh oh!" Duan Xin shouted excitedly: "This is his first national team game! This is his first national team game goal! He scored the first record for the Chinese team! We have a wonderful start!"
Gao Zheng's parents hugged each other happily in front of the TV.
This is not the first time they have watched their son’s game. They have seen many goals with their son’s goals that are more exciting than this.
But they still couldn't hide their excitement in the face of this goal, because this was the first goal their son scored with the Chinese team jersey.
People who came from their time always had a strong patriotic heart.
Playing football abroad, no matter how good it performs, it is just to make money.
But if we score a goal on behalf of the national team, it has another meaning: our son plays for the country and brings glory to the country!

Feng Shiyao was working in front of the computer. Suddenly, a new WeChat message appeared on the screen. She unlocked and saw that it was Xiao Yingying who sent it: "Ah hahahahahahahahaha!!! The handsome guy scored the goal! The handsome guy scored the goal!"
Feng Shiyao was a little surprised. The competition has just begun, right? Is it so fast?
Immediately afterwards, she heard someone in the office area behind her let out a depressing roar. It seemed that she was not the only one who was absent-minded...
She switched out of the work page and cut to the web page. The ongoing text live broadcast reminded the audience with bright red words: "Gao Zheng's long shot! He hung a dead corner! The ball entered!: 0! The Chinese team led Indonesia away!"
Feng Shiyao clenched her fists hard.

"Oh, this ball is beautiful!" Guo Wei slapped hard in front of the TV. "It was so sudden! Before he shot, I didn't know that this was a shot! He just swung his feet while running, and it was so amazing!"
Director Zhao was very proud: "Brother Zheng is good at it!"
Yang Wenlong also laughed, and the wrinkles on his face squeezed together: "It's quite a matter of success!"

Gao Zheng, who scored the goal, did not celebrate, but signaled his teammates to pick up the football quickly.
Teammate Wu Lei in front of the goal rushed into the goal. Before the Indonesian players could react, they picked up the football and held it in their arms.
Gao Zheng stepped forward to answer him, hugged him and ran to the middle circle.
The other teammates rushed up to celebrate with him, but he simply slapped the others in high-fives and did not make any celebration.
There was a smile on his face, not the kind of ecstatic smile.
You should know that this is the first goal in his national team's career, and it is a very memorable moment. If it were other players, maybe they would rack their brains to celebrate.
But he was so downplayed.
When he ran to the middle circle, he took the football from Wu Lei and pressed the football on the kickoff point in the middle circle.
He then reached out to the Indonesian players and signaled them to come up and kick the ball.
This surprised the commentator Duan Xin: "Gao Zheng did not celebrate, but asked the opponent to seize the time to drive the ball... Generally, this kind of action is done when the side behind wants to seize the time to equalize the score or overtake the score, but the Chinese team is clearly ahead now!"
But Indonesian head coach Jackson Thiago probably understands why Gao Zheng did this.
The statement that he should not underestimate the enemy before the game is true!
Not only him, but the entire Chinese team listened to him!
Thiago had an ominous premonition.
※※※
Why did Gao Zheng do this?
It's very simple, he wants to score a few more goals!
This is Indonesia's home court, and he doesn't think that scoring just one goal can ensure that the Chinese team beat Indonesia.
Everyone knows that one goal leads is the most unsafe score in the world.
So: 0 and 0:0 are no different.
In order to ensure that Indonesia does not turn around at home, we naturally need to lead a few more goals.

Gao Zheng, who scored a goal, became a key player in Indonesia's defense. Although he was also focused on his defense when he didn't score, his opponent is now even more active when defending him.
I don’t know if it was because of the concealment of the ball that made the Indonesian players very upset.
Gao Zheng suddenly ran back in the frontcourt and ran outside the penalty area to pick up his teammates.
Wu Lei, who was originally taking the ball on the wing, saw Gao Zheng running out and passed the football to him.
Gao Zheng did not stop the ball, but directly rubbed the football that Wu Lei passed, and the football was rubbed, just over the head of the Indonesian player who came up to press.
"Beautiful!" Duan Xin shouted.
Gao Zheng turned around, and the second Indonesian player also forced him up.
Gao Zheng stretched out his long legs and hooked the football back first. The football hit his chest, jumped up, and passed the head of the second Indonesian player.
"Oh oh oh! Here comes again! He picked the ball over the top twice in a row! Gao Zheng was like juggling, making Indonesian players scatter... "
Before Duan Xin finished speaking, the second Indonesian player, who was angry and embarrassed, knocked over Gao Zheng.
The referee's whistle sounded, and the Chinese team won a free kick about 27 or 8 meters away from the goal.
"Indonesia can only block Gao Zheng through fouls. If it is not fouls, Gao Zheng will definitely go in. If this ball is scored, it will be a wonderful goal!" Duan Xin was indignant for Gao Zheng.
Angry curses also sounded on the Internet in front of the TV in China.
The "Indonesian Monkey" curses one after another.
Because of the anti-China tragedy that year, many people in China had no good impression of Indonesia.
※※※
Everyone was speaking out for Gao Zheng, and Gao Zheng himself was not so angry.
He reorganized his socks, turned over from the ground, and took the football.
He wants to take the free kick himself.
No other internationals expressed their objections to this.
Fu Bo has designated Gao Zheng as the number one free kicker in the national team. Everyone has also seen Gao Zheng's free kick ability in training, and no one has opposed this decision.
After Gao Zheng put the football on, the walls of people in Indonesia were also built.
After getting used to those tall walls that try to find tall men, when Gao Zheng first saw the walls built by Indonesian players, he was still a little surprised to be so short?
This is not Gao Zheng deliberately insults people, but the fact.
This is what Gao Zheng saw.
One feature of Southeast Asian teams is that their players are short, which makes them more flexible, but insufficient air defense capabilities have always troubled them.
Take this Indonesian national team for example. The highest-height in the team is their central defender Victor, who is 1.83 meters tall, and he is not considered a local Indonesian player, but a naturalized Nigerian player.
Except for him, on the defense line, the others were not even 1.8 meters tall.
Even if Indonesia uses all the "tall men" in their team to rank the wall, this guy is really short, but in addition to Victor, who is 1.83 meters tall, there are also 1.81-meter-high midfielder Raphael, and 1.79-meter-high central defender Robbie. The two forwards were also pulled to rank the wall because they were over 1.7 meters tall.
In this way, they formed a wall of five people, blocking Gao Zheng's free kick from the front.
But even so, in the eyes of Gao Zheng, who is 1.9 meters tall, his eyes easily crossed the head of the human wall and saw the goal behind the human wall, which accounted for about one-third of the goal height. For the player who took the free kick, this gap was already big enough.
Gao Zheng felt that this was easier than practicing free kicks with mobile wall props in the training base.
So he helped him run after the whistle sounded.
The football drew an arc, bypassing the man wall that was jumping hard but still couldn't cover the goal height, and accurately drilled into the upper corner of the goal behind the man wall.
That's a place that the goalkeeper is far from reaching.
Chapter completed!
