Champion’s Heart

After the end of ninety minutes, before the start of overtime, both players will enjoy a few minutes of rest. Because the rest is too short, no one will go to the locker room to rest. Everyone comes to their own bench coach. Before the seat, sit on the floor.

Zhou Yi is sitting on the ground now, while the Chinese team's physiotherapist is massaging his thigh muscles to relax his muscles and relieve fatigue.

He is really tired now.

Since the start of the Asian Cup, the Chinese team has played five games. Zhou Yichang started the game. All of them played the whole game. There was no missing one minute.

This is the first time since he became a professional player. Previously in Dortmund, whether it was a youth team or a professional team, he had never played five games in a row because his physical fitness did not support him to do so. Although his physical fitness has made great progress in these two seasons, because Dortmund also plays on multiple lines this season and needs to be rotated, Zhou Yi has not started in five consecutive games and played 90 minutes.

In the Asian Cup, he did this for the first time, which was a fresh experience for him.

Gao Hongbo also has no choice. The lineup of the Chinese team is not as thick as Dortmund. He can only rely on Zhou Yi and must rely on Zhou Yi.

Although he positioned the Asian Cup as training, and indeed the starting lineup of each game is not exactly the same, but Zhou Yi is the main force of the thunder. Zhou Yi is also the only reason why he dare to make such a rotation and reach the semifinals.

Moreover, the Cup is already intensive. From January 8th to January 25th, five games were played in 18 days, an average of nearly three and a half games, which is equivalent to three consecutive weeks One week doubles.

The requirements for physical fitness will of course be very high.

Zhou Yi is not the kind of person with good physical fitness, and it is normal to feel tired now, but he still insists.

In order to prepare for playing overtime, the team's team doctor desperately massaged him, hoping that he could rest better and be able to persist for a longer time.

Because now the Chinese team has used all three substitutions. If Zhou Yi can't move. No one is available, he can only stand on the court, so that the Chinese team is equal to one less player in Australia. That's too dangerous.

During the rest of the players, Gao Hongbo took the time to explain the strategies in the overtime.

The strategy is actually very simple.

By this time, the physical strength of both sides was exhausted. Overtime is definitely impossible to maintain the rhythm of the 90-minute game, usually a team first attack half. In the second half, another team will attack. Even Australia cannot physically support them in the 30-minute overtime game.

The five-minute break was fleeting, when Zhou Yi got up from the ground and was ready to play. Gao Hongbo stopped him.

"No matter what the outcome of this game is, thank you for your contribution to the national team. Zhou Yi." He said.

Zhou Yi is strange: "High finger, are you comforting me after preparing for failure in advance?"

His breath was a little uneven when he spoke.

"I just don't want you to be too stressed."

"There is no pressure, high fingers. We are all in the semifinals. What pressure is there? But we will still go to the finals, so high fingers, you should prepare your winning test in advance. Ha!"

After that, he turned to play.

Gao Hongbo looked at his back and fell into contemplation.

After the start of overtime. It’s Australia kick-off, then it’s natural that Australia should take the initiative and then attack the Chinese team’s goal.

This is the "convention" of countless overtime games.

But the actual situation is somewhat different from the convention.

Because soon when the ball power fell to the Chinese team, the Chinese team actually took the initiative!

Under the leadership of Zhou Yi, they launched an aggressive offensive against the Australian goal, forcing Australia to withdraw the defense across the board, shrinking in its own half, to resist the Chinese team's attack, hoping to rely on dense defense to prevent the Chinese team from advancing. The ball, while waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

Many people will feel a headache when playing positional battles and breaking intensive defenses.

When Zhou Yi took the ball, an Australian player immediately rushed up to mark him personally, preventing him from easily sending the football out.

At the same time, they also pay attention to their feet when they are rushing to avoid falling Zhou Yi to the ground. The referee blows an excellent free kick, which is not very good.

After all, there are still two free kick masters in the Chinese team. One Deng Zhuoxiang used a lift ball to break the goal guarded by Lorris in the warm-up game against the French team. One Hao Junmin just used any free kick in the Asian Cup group stage. The ball broke through Uzbekistan's goal...

Therefore, although Australian players are violent, they do not dare to overturn Zhou Yi.

For Zhou Yi, he realized that this might be an opportunity.

The opponent thumped very hard, did not want him to pass the ball well, what if he didn't pass the ball?

Yes, don't pass the ball, break the ball with yourself!

The Australian players didn't dare to have too much physical contact with him after the rush, which gave him the space and opportunity to break through!

So in the ninety-ninth minute, when his teammates passed him the ball and Australian midfielder Jedinak also rushed up, Zhou Yi did not choose to stop the ball, but turned his right foot over, a little angle. When the football hit, instead of stopping at the feet, it rebounded out and bounced forward...

At the same time, Zhou Yi kicked his leg and rushed out, just passing by with Jedinak who rushed up!

In such a wrong way, Zhou Yi can even skim the stunned expression on the other party's face-obviously he did not expect that Zhou Yi, who always passed football in front of the penalty area, even ran into the penalty area behind him. !

"Zhou Yi! Breakthrough!" Liu Hong exclaimed.

In his exclamation, Zhou Yi killed the restricted area.

His sudden start breakthrough made the Australian players unpredictable, so their reaction was half a beat slow, and when they rushed up, they saw Zhou Yi leaning to the left side and lifting his right foot, it seemed Is to pass the football to the right!

Australian defender Neal, who was in front of him, quickly glanced over there, there was indeed a free time there!

Reminiscent of Zhou Yi's precise and fatal pass, Neil, who wanted to come up and threw him, hesitated. Should I cut off this pass first?

His body turned sideways to the empty side.

Zhou Yi saw the opponent's side, but when his right foot fell, he didn't pass the ball, but... gently buckle to the left!

Just squeezed from behind Neil!

Neal saw Zhou Yi suddenly change direction to break through. He had conditioned reflexively to stretch his hand and stretch his foot to pull Zhou Yi, but his hands and feet were stretched out. Very very sensitive place, if fouled here, there is a great possibility of a penalty kick!

With the flash of electricity and flint in his head, Neil's hands and feet were frozen in the air, and he could only watch Zhou Yi burst into it!

Zhou Yi just brought football into the penalty area!

At this time, the Australian players woke up like dreams, and turned and rushed over.

If viewed from the sky, Zhou Yi is like a humanoid magnet, instantly attracting all the Australian players around him and his opposite pole.

At this time, Australia's restricted area was almost empty, and Zhou Yi could pass it to anyone who could form a shot.

But Zhou Yi didn't pass the ball, but took a shot while the encircling circle was not closed!

The football drilled out of the gap under the crowd's feet and rolled against the turf to the near corner of the goal!

Schwarzer saw the football roll out of the encircling circle and quickly fell to the ground to flutter, but the football that Zhou Yi poked out was even better in speed...

When he fell completely to the ground, the football had rolled into the goal behind him...

In the 100th minute, the Chinese team took the lead!

"Zhou Yi! Zhou Yi! Zhou Yi——!!!!!!" Liu Hong was hysterical and roared desperately. "Beautiful! Beautiful! It's so beautiful! 2:1! The Chinese team took the lead! They lead Australia in overtime! They have the opportunity to beat their opponents and make it to the finals!! Every time the final moment of the game, the original strength Zhou Yi, who doesn't support it, often has amazing performances. I think this kind of time can be defined as'Zhou Yi moment'!"

In front of the TV, countless Chinese fans are also hysterical.

Zhou Jianliang is also in it~www.wuxiaspot.com~ His face is red and his neck is bulging.

After being a Chinese fan for so many years, when was the last time so refreshing?

I don’t remember...

After the goal, Zhou Yi got out of a group of stunned Australian players, and as a result ran into Gao Lin.

Gao Lin hugged him, then pulled him to the ground, and then Hao Junmin pressed it up. More Chinese players were on the way. They screamed excitedly, as if they saw the idol girl.

The Chinese players on the bench also rushed out of their seats, like a row of birds startled. Waving arms are like waving wings.

Gao Hongbo punched in the chest and waved hard. Behind him were the members of the coaching staff who had embraced together.

Everyone was venting their emotions and screaming desperately until they snarled their throats. (To be continued.) Activate new URL
