Chapter 147 Fulfilling the Promise
In the 31st minute of the game, Li Yu made a long shot in front of the penalty area and was saved by South Korean goalkeeper Zheng Chenglong.
Seeing that the shot was thrown out, Li Yu did not look very annoyed. The face in the camera was smiling.
"We saw Li Yu's smile. Obviously, he is very satisfied with his performance in today's game. He is already enjoying the happiness brought to him by the game. I hope that the fans watching the game can also feel this happiness and enjoyment." Then the camera changed and gave Erickson a close-up on the sidelines. This is one of the reasons to tell everyone that Li Yu is so happy. He has Erickson's trust!
"Haha, looking at Li Yu's wonderful performance, Li Yu has fully mastered the attack of Huaxia Hong Kong team. Obviously, on the field of Huaxia Hong Kong team, she is trying the same tactics as Manchester United and attacking with Li Yu as the core. This should be Erikson's tactical arrangement..." Hong Kong commentators have been analyzing In the game.
This is a corner kick from Huaxia Hong Kong.
In the penalty area of the South Korean team, Li Yu is ready to fight for this corner kick. It happens to be Jiang Min-shou who is responsible for defending him. It can't be said that he happened to meet him. This is the arrangement of the head coach of the South Korean team, Xu Dingmao. Jiang Min-shou is responsible for keeping an eye on Li Yu. As for Kim Jin-gyu, he comes to take care of Muric.
Jie Nima is completely an arrangement for death!
Many Korean footballers have fully realized this. Why hasn't their head coach made any change? Jiang Minshou's face to Li Yu is completely in vain. So far, Jiang Minshou has no defensive effect at all. That small action that still appears so far can only remind the people who watch the game how much he is. Incompetent.
Xu Dingmao knows, but who can be replaced?
He doesn't have a defensive master like Baresi to choose from. Jiang Minshou at least went through the game and is more familiar with Li Yu's various movements. Maybe it's not good to replace it with others. The Chinese young man has given him an unsolved problem in the Hong Kong team. It's almost the same for anyone. Who should score? I can't stop it.
Li Yu and Jiang Minshou squeezed into the penalty area together, and the spark of the battle immediately aroused between the two. Jiang Minshou's game is now progressing. It's a shame. The first half is not over yet. Li Yu has passed and shot. If there is no more to make up for it, the South Korean media will have something to say in the future. In fact, Jiang Minshou was also wronged. It's not that he didn't try his best. The strength of breastfeeding has been used, but the effect is not obvious. This time, Jiang Minshou simply had an unconventional action and hugged Li Yu tightly. Jiang Minshou was also meditating in his heart. Media reporters, please show mercy. Li Yu and I are not good friends!
Li Yu and Jiang Minshou hugged each other. Jiang Minshou's small movements continued. He secretly pulled Li Yu's jersey with his hand, which made Li Yu unable to jump at all.
Of course, Li Yu was not happy. He slapped Jiang Minshou's hand and wanted to break free from Jiang Minshou's arms. However, Jiang Minshou became stronger. This time, he hugged tighter, and Li Yu was not very angry. If our Jenny hugged like this, it would be fine. What did you hug? As soon as he tried hard, he immediately broke away and pushed Jiang Minshou.
The referee couldn't stand it anymore, and finally blew the whistle and suspended the game.
"You two should be honest! Do you understand? Separate!!!" The referee ran in and verbally warned the two. He waved his hands to both sides, "Separate! Do you understand what I mean?!"
Jiang Minshou raised his hands innocently and showed that he had done nothing. Li Yu was also shameless by this guy. Does she need to be like a complaining woman?
But after the referee walked away, Jiang Minshou grabbed Li Yu's jersey again...
Jie Nima doesn't let people play football well. When did this way of playing football become popular in South Korea? Good friend tactics!
Kongka's penalty corner kick passed into the penalty area. Li Yu barely jumped under the serious interference of Jiang Minshou. He felt that his scalp had rubbed against the football.
The football flew to the back point. Ricky Lambert headed the ball to the goal, but was subconsciously raised by the South Korean team goalkeeper Zheng Chenglong's hand, which blocked the football like a bunker!
Then, before the ball was robbed by Jin Zhengui, Muric, it opened out of the penalty area!
"Jin Zhengui! It's out! Cui Chengguo got the ball!"
After the football was kicked out of the penalty area by Jin Zhengui, it fell to Cui Chengguo near the middle circle.
"Oh no!" Barrett was in the middle circle. When he saw that Cui Chengguo got the ball, he shouted secretly and rushed to Cui Chengguo, hoping to interfere with the South Korean team's counterattack as soon as possible.
"Fight back!" On the sidelines, Eriksson also jumped up and shouted loudly.
But it's too late.
Cui Chengguo stopped the ball on the chest, and then before Barrett's interception, he pushed his arch and the football was divided!
Then everyone saw Cao Zaizhen plugging in from the side road.
"Cao Zaizhen! There are no defensive players around him at all, not offside! Not offside! Cui Chengguo's passing timing is so good that he will never be offside! He received the ball - stopped the ball beautifully - Konka was still chasing back. He couldn't catch up, but he was still chasing - on the other side, Park Ji-sung also came up - Fan Junye in front of the door! Gilbert rushed up! Cui Chengguo! Passing the ball to Park Ji-sung? Gilbert rushed to Park Ji-sung! ...Ah, fake action! Cao Zaizhen! He cheated poor Fan Junye... shot! The goal is scored! Cao Zaizhen's goal! The Korean pulled back a goal!"
Seeing that Cao Zaizhen shot the football into the net, everyone on the bench and coach bench of the South Korean team, who seemed to be dull after the start of the game, jumped up!!
Xu Dingmao clenched his fists and resisted his excitement! In his opinion, he scored a goal in the first half of the game, and the South Korean team has a lot to do in the second half. The defense of the two teams seems to give their opponents a chance to score goals. What South Korea has to do now is to score more goals than their opponents!
Differing from the cheers of the South Korean team's bench, Eriksson bit his lip and looked at the court with a pale face on his face.
He was very dissatisfied with the loss of the ball of the Chinese Hong Kong team. In this corner kick, a central defender of the Chinese Hong Kong team came up to grab the header, and only Barrett was the only one to protect the midfielder. Gilbert was the only one in the backcourt.
What made Erickson even more angry was that when the South Korean team counterattacked, Cui Chengguo scored the ball under the interference of Barrett. Cao Zaizhen ran wildly with the ball, and it was not the central defender of the Chinese Hong Kong team who tried his best to defend first, but Kongka, who had just finished the corner kick. The Argentine's attitude towards the game was very positive, but it was a very nemesis. It doesn't help at all.
There is no tacit understanding in defense at all. It's simply a mess, and the biggest problem is the game attitude shown by the defensive players. It's really worrying. This is the biggest crux of the patchwork of the Chinese Hong Kong team. I always feel that it's not like a complete team!!!
Obviously, the live director can also feel Eriksson's anger. The camera first stayed on the blue-faced Eriksson for a few seconds, and then gave the central defender who did not return, as well as the active Koka! Close-up... It's very thought-provoking.
"The problem is still exposed. There is something wrong with the attitude of some players in the game. This is not a problem that money can solve!" The Hong Kong commentator said it very bluntly, and he also had some regrets.
In the end, when the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half of the game, the score on the scoreboard of the Hong Kong Stadium temporarily stopped at Huaxia Hong Kong 2:1 South Korea!
Although it was a little depressing to get a goal back by the South Korean team, it did not affect the interest of the Chinese Hong Kong fans at the Hong Kong Stadium. It should be a pleasure to be able to lead the strong Asian team South Korea by 2:1 in the half-time.
As the so-called football experts commented on the first half, "The goal conceded in the first half exposed some loopholes in the defense of China Hong Kong. However, this score and the process of the first half, we have reason to be satisfied. After all, this is only the official second game of Erikson's team. He took It's only a little more than a month for this team, and a lot of work hasn't been done yet. The transformation of this Chinese Hong Kong team is still in progress.
The expert always has his reasons, but the fans and commentators are still satisfied with the score, but Eriksson himself is not satisfied.
"What did you do when the Koreans scored the counterattack?" This was the first thing Erickson said after entering the home team's dressing room of the Hong Kong Stadium. The cold tone said that the Swede was very angry about the goal.
"Who remembers what I said before the game? In the face of the rapid counterattack of Koreans, we should block it layer by layer, don't mess up! You have to return to the defense quickly, and you, when the opponent has been relieved, everyone must start to return to the defense. When he said this, Eriksson's eyes stared at the player who did not return. Although there was no criticism by name, this silent warning was more powerful, and only world-class coaches could control this group of foreigners**.
The other players of the Huaxia Hong Kong team sat in their respective positions and were silent. The joy of leading in the first half was gone by this time.
"In the second half... completely kill Cao Zaizhen. No matter what method you use, I can't let him take the ball comfortably. He is a dangerous person and very fast, as you all know. In the second half of the game, his defense was strengthened and he was defended at different levels!"
"If you really can't, it's a foul! The action is more rough. This is our home court. What are you afraid of?!" Erickson said viciously that the Chinese Hong Kong player was reprimanded by him and held his breath. Hearing this, he nodded hard. At this time, no one regarded this game as a game for money, even more than the final!
"Attack... I have to say that your performance is not bad." Erickson praised the performance of the attacking players in the first half of the game.
"In the second half of the game, Konka, I need you to be more active in attack." Erickson looked at Konka. He judged that in the second half of the game, the key competition between the two teams may be the ability to score goals. The defense cannot be completely changed in a day or two. If you want to win the game safely, it is extremely important to maintain firepower.
Li Yu looked at Erickson and thought she would receive tactical instructions next, but the Swedes didn't say anything.
"Li Yu!" Before playing, Erikson stopped Li Yu.
Li Yu turned his head and looked at Erikson.
"In the second half, it's better to enter one in 15 minutes!" As he spoke, Erikson pointed to the watch on his wrist.
Seeing Li Yu nodding and running to the court, Eriksson's cold face and a smile on the corners of his mouth.
He limited the time just to see how Li Rui performed under pressure.
On the court, after the start of the second half of the game, the two sides involuntarily strengthened the midfield competition.
Erickson sat in the coach's seat with his legs and cheeks to watch the game. He is not worried about this kind of competition. This group of foreign legion, mainly English players, is still reassuring in this regard. Moreover, to put it out of rudely, if these people from the Football League don't have this level, there is no such level at all. Qualified to earn this money!
In the 52nd minute of the game, Park Ji-sung carried the ball in the front court. He planned to pass the ball to Cui Chengguo, who came to catch him on the side road, but he was tackled by Barrett halfway and broke the football. Barrett was still on the ground. Without getting up, he swept the football to Kongka not far away, trying to launch a quick counterattack.
Kongka looked up at the front. He immediately saw that Li Yu had begun to accelerate forward and went straight into the penalty area. This was an opportunity!
A long-distance penetrating arc is transmitted from Kongka's right foot.
"Barrett's break...beautiful...Konka gets the ball! Long pass!! Pass the ball beautifully! A chance to fight back!!"
As the Hong Kong commentator said, Kongka's pass is really beautiful. The football goes around an arc. The football passes through the ribs between Jin Zhengui and Jin Dongjin, and just appears on Li Yu's running route.
Li Yu was very comfortable to catch such a pass. He didn't have to stop the ball at all. He went straight forward, and then accelerated, broke through Jin Dou Xuan, who hurriedly came to fill the position, and then continued to carry the ball away.
However, when Li Yu forcibly broke through Jin Douxuan by speed, the angle of the shot has been sealed in the face of Zheng Chenglong.
Jiang Minshou also rushed up at Li Yu. At this time, Li Yu did not panic. He pushed the football from his left foot to his right foot, dodged Jiang Minshou's foot, and then shook his ankle and passed the football out.
In the middle of the restricted area!
Muric had already run, but he quickly reacted, turned his back to the goal, and made an upside-down golden hook shot, which shocked the South Korean player in a cold sweat. "No! He is passing the ball!" The goalkeeper Zheng Chenglong immediately found that something was wrong. Muric may not be sure about the barb. The ball speed is not fast, but he is moving towards the goal.
"Stop him quickly..." Zheng Chenglong shouted and rushed to the ball. He didn't know whether he meant football or a real person.
Soon the answer was revealed. Among a group of white players, a red lightning bolt stood out and was extremely fast. He worked hard for the promise before the start of the second half. The camera was aimed at the ball that was still rolling. Who would touch the ball first?
Is it Zheng Chenglong's hands that hit the ball, or the foot of Li Yu's shot?
Everyone held their breath and saw what the answer was!
Zheng Chenglong saw that the ball was right in front of him. He jumped out without hesitation. At the moment when he was about to jump on the ball, Zheng Chenglong's face subconsciously smiled. The threat was about to be eradicated, and the peerless save was about to be born. Zheng Chenglong could not control his inner surging ability to save the team from conceding the ball.
Is it too early to be happy?
Li Yu's body also scratched out and shoveled. This is the speed competition. Speaking of speed, Li Yu has never been afraid of anyone. Yes!
Zheng Chenglong's face was frozen. In order to avoid close contact with Li Yu's boots, he had to change the air action, supported the ground with one hand, and rolled out.
Just as Zheng Chenglong rolled slowly, bringing up pieces of grass chips, the ball scored, 3:1!
Li Yu fulfilled his promise to Erickson. He scored in 15 minutes. Although the Hong Kong fans at the scene did not know that there was such an agreement between the master and apprentice, his goal was really beautiful. The shovel shot, coupled with Zheng Chenglong's performance of the ground gourd, added weight to the goal.
Li Yu shot, and South Korean goalkeeper Zheng Chenglong ran away. After a deafening celebration, he watched the goal replay on the big screen again, but the fans laughed. Wonderful scenes were rare, but today he not only saw the wonderful goal, but also the Korean acrobatic performance, which was an absolute value-added performance. !
After scoring, Li Yu was not as excited as the first goal. She stretched out two fingers and put them on her lips!
"Is this celebration action saying that two goals are enough for you to shut up? Of course, it doesn't refer to the fans on the scene, but the reporter friend from South Korea!" Hong Kong commentators don't know whether they understand it or not. Anyway, they have to say something and just say whatever they think.
Then, Li Yu took the initiative to run to Muric, who passed the ball. Muric also got up from the ground for a short time and gave Li Yu a thumbs up, which meant that the goal was really beautiful.
Li Yu smiled and didn't say anything. She also gave Muric a thumbs up.
Of course, it is always a happy thing for teammates to recognize each other.
After the goal appeared in the second half, Xu Dingmao did not sit on the coach's seat. The South Korean head coach has been paced around the court, making gestures to the court from time to time, shouting loudly, looking at the momentum and eager to rush to the field, telling his disciples how to attack.
In the past, Xu Dingmao, who was quiet, was stimulated by something. Of course, it was under great pressure from the domestic media. Some Korean football traditions cannot be lost, at least not in his hands.
But he can't control it on the field. With the little loss of game time, Xu Dingmao finally stopped shouting hysterically. He could only silently pray for the appearance of a miracle in his heart. He has done everything he had to do, and he had to pray!
