Chapter 564: Hu Lai, do you have any advice?
Although Melli failed to score in the opening game, Argentina's offensive did not weaken. They continued to attack the Olympic team's goal in the subsequent games, wave after wave.
The Argentinian fans in the stands were cheering and screaming.
The Chinese fans were too nervous to make any sound, for fear that if they made a sound, the team would lose the ball...
Xie Lan and Hu Lixin were in front of the TV and couldn't talk.
There are many other TV viewers like them.
Unlike the previous two group matches of the Chinese Olympic team, this game was not held in the latter part of the night, but kicked off at 9:30 pm. For Chinese audiences, it was considered prime time.
At this moment, a large number of Chinese fans are waiting in front of the TV to watch the live broadcast of this game.
For this game, CCTV also dedicated the broadcast time of the sports channel just to broadcast this game.
Melly Banega also has many fans in China, but now, the vast majority of Melly's fans are also nervous about the Chinese team.
After all, as Chinese, the Chinese Olympic team is their home team.
"Argentina launched another attack... Cantero sent a cross after breaking through from the wing! Wang Guangwei made a header to clear the siege! Phew!" He Feng also let out a sigh of relief during the explanation, and the audience in front of the TV knew it Yes, the commentator is also very nervous...
"How long can we hold on like this?" Li Zhifei asked Shi Wuyin on the sidelines.
"I don't know." Shi Wuyin frowned.
Argentina deserves to be a strong team in the world. Both the adult team and the youth team are world-class.
When they attack, it feels like they won't stop at all.
Under this continuous offensive, the pressure on the Chinese team is increasing.
Before the game, we talked about defensive counterattacks, but now Argentina’s offensive is too fierce, and the Chinese team has not had any decent counterattack opportunities...
Shi Wuyin could guess that Argentina would attack at the beginning, but he did not expect that the attack would be so intense.
※※※
Argentina took a corner kick, and their captain and main center back Juan Sosa overwhelmed Liu Yan in the penalty area and headed the ball towards the goal.
Slightly off.
All Chinese fans breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.
Lin Zhiyuan placed the football and looked at the situation in front of him. He did not pass the football to his teammates in a short pass because Argentina's three offensive players were still in front, ready to counterattack at any time.
He'd seen it before.
Although the accuracy of the big kick is relatively low, it is indeed a good way to keep the football away from your own goal.
Before the game, he was extremely eager to play against Melli, but after the actual fight, he was now in a complicated mood worried about losing the ball at any time - he wanted to save Melli's shot and achieve his own highlight of the game. At that moment, he was worried about not saving Melli's shot, which became the background of Melli's highlight performance.
Lin Zhiyuan kicked the football forward with a big kick.
Hu Lai jumped up to fight for the top and passed the football to his teammates.
Although his height is not an advantage, he can often make such header passes in the frontcourt with his excellent judgment of placement. It's just that this time he met Juan Sosa, who was in better physical condition. He was unable to head the ball when Sosa was close to him.
The football was pushed back by Sosa.
Argentina's defensive midfielder Enzo Diaz received the ball inside the center circle.
When Gao Ruimin saw that Diaz's back was facing the direction of the attack, a bold idea suddenly came to his mind, and he suddenly jumped out and attacked!
Diaz caught the football and just turned around when he collided with Gao Ruimin.
The other person stumbled to one side, and the football was stabbed out by Gao Ruimin.
Cantero, who was right next to Diaz, raised his arm to signal a foul to the Chinese team players, but the referee did not blow the whistle, but turned and ran in the direction of the rolling football.
"Beautiful counterattack!"
Gao Ruimin poked the football away with his hand, bypassed Diaz, caught up with the football, and passed the football to captain Guo Junfu who retreated to meet him.
At the same time, Luo Kai and Chen Xingyi started on their respective wings at the same time and moved forward!
Argentina's three-back system is prone to problems when switching offense and defense. The two wide players in the midfield have already attacked, and there are only three people in the back line. Juan Sosa, the middle one, has just completed a forward pass. He headed the ball to clear the ball, leaving his two central defender partners behind.
This is when Argentina's defense is most vulnerable!
※※※
"Pass Hu Lai!!" Zhang Qinghuan, who was watching the game live on a large projector, couldn't help shouting.
In the TV broadcast, Hu Lai, who had just failed to compete with Juan Sosa for the top position, inserted directly behind him.
Left centre-back Santiago Sweeney is filling in towards the centre, so the wing he was on is empty and Roquet is sprinting towards that side.
It stands to reason that everyone would feel that it is better to pass this kind of ball to Luo Kai who is open in space.
But Zhang Qinghuan believed that Hu Lai should be passed to Hu Lai because Hu Lai was in the middle and could directly threaten the goal. And to pass it to Luo Kai, one more process has to go through.
He shouted this to Guo Junfu as if he were on the court, without even thinking about the fact that others couldn't hear him at all.
Xia Xiaoyu, who was sitting next to him, became nervous. The Olympic team finally got an excellent offensive opportunity. As a frontcourt organizer, Guo Junfu's passing choice is likely to directly determine the outcome of the Olympic team's attack. He hoped that Guo Junfu could make the right choice for once.
No one in the Qin Lin family sitting on the other side spoke, but stared at the game screen on the projection screen seriously and nervously.
I saw that Guo Junfu really chose the middle pass as Zhang Qinghuan said!
He rubbed the football!
"Pick the ball to the center! An offensive opportunity for the Olympic team!"
※※※
After Santiago Sweeney added to the center, he did not continue to chase Hulay, but prepared to push the football directly on the penalty arc.
Just when he was about to take off, he suddenly heard a shout from behind: "Let me come!!"
When he was about to take off, he hesitated, swaying and not jumping up immediately.
He thought it was goalkeeper Rino Marinelli who attacked and let him miss the ball...
But he soon realized something was wrong, because the voice... didn't look like Marinelli's!
So he jumped again in a hurry. Not only was the timing too late, but the height of the jump was far from high enough.
Although he jumped up, he missed the football and the ball flew over his head!
※※※
"Falling off!!" He Feng shouted.
Hu Lixin suddenly stood up from the sofa, staring at the TV screen.
In the live broadcast, his son ran into the penalty area, looked up at the goalkeeper of the Argentine Olympic team who abandoned the goal, and then quickly looked back towards the direction of the football.
My feet began to adjust their pace.
"Oh! Oh! Oh..." His wife beside him exclaimed uncontrollably.
※※※
Rino Marinelli rushed out of the goal with his arms outstretched and pounced on Julet.
This is a knightly duel between the goalkeeper and the striker, with one strike determining the outcome!
He tried to increase his defensive space and yelled at the same time, trying to create some psychological pressure on the opposing player so that he could not make the next connection move.
Then he lowered his center of gravity, dragged his legs on the ground, and slid towards the forward of the Chinese Olympic team.
As long as he stops the ball, he will completely lose the angle and space for shooting!
In his eyes, the Chinese team forward was still looking back at the football, not knowing that he was very close to him.
Chance!
But then Marinelli's eyes widened, as did his mouth.
The forward of the Chinese team did not stop the ball. Instead, while running forward, he naturally raised his right leg and gently picked up the fallen football!
The football jumped up from his feet, over Marinelli's head, and flew towards the empty goal behind him!
“Shoot without stopping the ball!!”
After completing this shooting action, Hulay changed his direction slightly before running to Marinelli, went around him, and then opened his arms and turned towards the camera in the corner flag area, without even looking at the direction of the camera behind him. Football glance at the goal.
Then he jumped up and spun in the air.
When he landed, facing the goal, he saw the ball bounce in the goal and fly towards the net.
He grinned.
Do you have any advice for Xia Hu Lai?
※※※
The Spanish commentary is basically incomprehensible to the women’s football girls. So they watched two games of the Chinese Olympic team and only watched the pictures and didn't care about the commentary.
Just after Gao Ruimin successfully counterattacked and passed the football to Guo Junfu, the Spanish commentator on the TV kept chattering, talking as fast as a machine gun. The women's football girls didn't understand a word he said.
But now each of them understands this sentence, or this word:
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL——!!!"
In the conference room, there were the sounds of chairs being knocked over, the sound of tables being slapped, and mostly the screams of girls.
"Beautiful——!! Beautiful!!"
"Hu Lai!!"
"Handsome!!"
Xu Wen had just finished cheering and was clapping her hands vigorously. At the same time, she turned to look at Li Qingqing next to her.
Li Qingqing had just retracted the fist he had thrown out. After noticing Xu Wen's gaze, he turned to his roommate and smiled: "He is not willing to give in!"
