Chapter 78 Unexpected lead
"It is still snowing heavily in Moscow today. The whole city of Moscow is full of ice and snow. However, after being repaired a few years ago, the Lujniki Stadium has been equipped with a geothermal system, so there is no snow on the stadium. The conditions of the site are not bad, but the temperature is still very low. Today, the local temperature has reached zero. At 17 degrees, such climatic conditions are a huge test for the Gosho team. Although the winter in Switzerland is also cold, it usually only looks a few degrees below zero. The temperature like this is rarely experienced by the players of the Gosau team.
In the first half of the game, Gosho started the ball first, and they attacked from left to right in the first half. With the whistle of the German Weiner, the referee on duty, the game officially began.
Egman stood in front of the ball. Although he was wearing a thick jersey and thick gloves, he still felt that his whole body was wooden and his ears were a little frozen. He couldn't help stamping his feet. He looked at his teammates. Most of them were gasping, covering their hands, squatting and touching their ears. Obviously, they were also very cold.
Egman couldn't help muttering a few words: "This damn place, this damn weather." In fact, if he knew that Moscow had a minimum temperature of minus 26 degrees in February a few years ago, he might have thanked God that he did not make the weather in Moscow colder on this day.
When Egman saw that the players of CSKA Moscow still looked very comfortable at such a temperature, he muttered, "Aren't they afraid of the cold?"
After hearing the whistle of referee Weiner, Egman kicked the ball to Codingho beside him and ran forward. He felt that only by running more now could he keep his body temperature.
Compared with the maladjustment of Gosho's players, most of the players of the CSKA Moscow team seem to be nothing. They play football under such a temperature all year round, and they don't feel that such a temperature is strange at all. Even several South American players on their team have played in Russia for several years. The longest Lovi has been here for more than ten years, so they have long adapted to such a low temperature.
After kick-off, the players of the Gosho team made a mistake after several passes. After receiving Ivanovich's score, Horenstein wanted to pass the ball to the middle, but when he stopped the ball, he felt that his foot was not his own. His stop this time stopped several meters, which was compared with his previous Saili will never appear.
The players of CSKA Moscow seemed to have been preparing for their opponent's mistakes. As soon as Horensten stopped the ball, Romeo, the left forward of CSKA Moscow, immediately controlled the ball and then advanced with the ball. This unexpected mistake caught the Gosho players off guard and did not react for a while. Romeo With the ball**, and then cross it. Prudnikov, the striker of the CSKA Moscow team, grabbed the header and rushed to the top. Fortunately, Chekarelly was well prepared, and he reacted very quickly and pressed the ball under him.
In the 5th minute of the game, the Gosho team made another mistake. This time it was Codingho. After receiving Avanzini's pass in the front court, he wanted to turn around and break through, but he tripped the garlic under his feet and almost fell into the mud. After the ball was broken by Felipeinco, he directly drove to the front court with a big foot. After getting the ball, De Sagoyev pushed the ball to the front of the penalty area, and then decisively took a long shot. The ball went straight to the lower right corner of the goal. Seeing that the Chekareli whip was out of reach, the ball hit the outside of the right post of the goal and popped out the bottom line.
All Gosho players took a cold breath. This cold breath made several players cough. This cold air is really too cold. Think about it, the cold air of minus 17 degrees, mixed with snowflakes, how will it feel?
Just five minutes after the opening, Gosho made two low-level mistakes, which made Lin Fenglei understand why it was difficult for many European giants to retreat in the away game in Moscow. He frowned tightly, but he had no good idea in this situation. Although it is said that "people will win the sky", sometimes the power of nature is really unmatched by human beings.
Lin Fenglei can only shout to his players and let them relax. Don't be nervous, because in this case, the more nervous they are, the stiffer their muscles will be. He can only hope that the players can adapt to this harsh climate through their adaptability and perform better and better in later games.
Just when everyone thought that Gosho would be passive, Gosho unexpectedly scored a goal.
In the ninth minute after the start of the game, under the force of the players of CSKA Moscow, Antunović drove the ball directly to the front court with a big foot. The ball was a little powerful and flew directly to the penalty area of the CSKA Moscow, Vasily, the central defender of CSKA Moscow. Berezuski saw that the ball was relatively close to Akinfeev, and he should be able to control it, so he did not chase back desperately, but stuck Egman's route and wanted Akinfeev to attack and catch the ball.
But there was a little accident at this time. Because it was snowing in the sky, the snowflakes fell to the ground and were melted by the geothermal system, so there was some stagnant water on the ground. The snow was too heavy. Although the drainage system of the stadium was good, it was too late to discharge all the stagnant water in time. The ball just fell into a pool of stagnant water and failed to bounce up. Instead, it stopped in place, which made Akinfeyev's judgment a mistake.
Egman bypassed Berezusky and ran into the penalty area. At this time, Akinfeyev accelerated his speed and ran to the place where the ball was, but Egman had run to the place where the ball was, and then easily pushed the shot and hit the ball into the lower left corner of the goal, in order not to let the ball appear just now. In this situation, Egman also safely pushed a half-high ball. Although Akinfeev made a save, Egman's shooting power was too strong and the angle was too tricky, and he could only see the ball get into the net.
This unexpected goal made 80,000 CSKA Moscow fans silent. Originally, based on the performance of CSKA Moscow in the previous game, their fans thought that the team had gained an advantage. It was only a matter of time before they won, but they didn't expect an accident to let the opponent take the lead. .
This accident is like pouring a poor cold water on their heads. In such weather, it is not fun to be poured on their heads with a poor cold water, which is enough to make them unforgettable. They finally know that today's opponent of the Moscow Central Army is not a cat or a dog, but a Champions League. Defending champion.
Berdeev, the head coach of CSKA Moscow, was pale. He praised Haikou before the game, and he did think that with the home advantage of CSKA Moscow, he should be able to achieve a good result in this game, but he didn't expect that the game was just beginning. In less than ten minutes, the team fell behind because of an accident.
Berdev can't lose his temper with his players, because just now, Berezusky and Akinfeev did not make any obvious mistakes in the defense of this ball, but because of a pool of water on the field, which led to the goal loss. This is really ironic that the Central Army of Moscow did not because of the excellent home court. He scored, but lost points because of this. Only now did he know that the climate in Moscow is really a double-edged sword.
After conceded the goal, the Central Army of Moscow strengthened its offensive. Although it was behind in the score, they were still more adaptable than Gosho in such a climate, so they still had a certain advantage in the scene.
After Lin Fenglei unexpectedly led the team, he let the players shrink the formation backwards, because the players of the Goshao team are not particularly adapted to the environment. Mistakes are inevitable, and the shrinking formation can make the opponent's use of space. Even if they make a mistake, they can quickly organize effective defense and lose the ball. The rate will be greatly reduced.
