Chapter 308

The Chinese team's celebration lasted for more than half a minute before the referee intervened and ended it under the protest of the Argentines, and they returned to their own half to wait for the game to start.

The Argentines naturally had reason to protest.

Whether in terms of ball possession, number of shots, or number of shots on target, Argentina was far ahead.

Unexpectedly, it was the Chinese team that scored the first goal.

The Chinese team smashed their half-hour attack with a sneak attack, which naturally made the Argentines a little embarrassed and angry.

Seeing the Chinese people celebrating wildly, they naturally complained that the Chinese people tried to use the celebration to delay time.

After the game resumed, Argentina's offensive was more fierce than before.

In the 30th minute, Messi broke through Zhou Haibing's defense in the middle and split the ball, and Riquelme shot a long shot from the left foot of the penalty area.

The ball bypassed goalkeeper Qiu Shengjiong's ten fingers in the expectant eyes of the Argentines, but finally slightly missed the post, making them lament.

Four minutes later, in the 34th minute, Di Maria once again used his skills to break through the wing, and then made a low pass from the bottom.

Center forward Aguero rushed into the penalty area to cover the front point, but was a little slow and failed to touch the ball.

The ball flew past Aguero's feet and was directly pressed under the goalkeeper Qiu Shengjiong who was guarding the post.

In the 37th minute, Messi used his strong ability to combine man and ball to rush left and right outside the penalty area, breaking through three people in succession to form a gap for shooting, and then took a long shot from the top of the penalty area.

The ball passed through the penalty area with many people, but the angle was slightly right, and was held in the arms of goalkeeper Qiu Shengjiong, leaving no chance for the Argentine to make up the shot.

But no matter what, Argentina's attack did not stop.

Moreover, after losing the ball, the Argentines' attack became even crazier.

Even though Jiang Xiaolin used the team halo to increase the Chinese Olympic team's on-the-spot state to 100%, it was difficult to make up for the gap in technical strength in the face of the collective rampage of the Argentines. It was natural that they were bombarded by the Argentines.

Fortunately, although they were always pressed to the ground and passively defended, the overall defense of the Chinese team was really good, and they almost did not give the Argentines any threatening shooting opportunities in the penalty area.

Even if the shots outside the penalty area were of good quality, goalkeeper Qiu Shengjiong seemed to be at ease with the full value of the on-the-spot state, at least he did not make any low-level mistakes such as butter hands to give the Argentines a supplementary shot.

In addition to the united and united defense, the Chinese team naturally would not forget their counterattack weapon.

Although there were not many counterattack opportunities, as long as there was a chance, the Chinese team's players would try.

After all, didn't they score a goal by counterattack before, and are they still leading now?

If they could score another counterattack goal, the Chinese team would lead 2-0 and have a much greater chance of winning the championship.

Therefore, even under the powerful bombardment of Argentina, the Chinese Olympic team still did not give up any chance of counterattack.

Of course, this kind of opportunity requires luck.

In the 41st minute, the Chinese team almost got a great fortune.

This was also an attack by the Argentines, because the Chinese team had not counterattacked for several minutes at this time, which made the Argentine midfielders stand closer. Except for the two central defenders, everyone else had crossed the center line to participate in the attack.

And goalkeeper Romero had unknowingly stood outside the small penalty area.

At this moment, an Argentine pass error was keenly discovered by Zheng Zhi, who decisively intercepted it and kicked it to Jiang Xiaolin who had not yet crossed the center line.

The Argentine defenders suddenly changed their faces and retreated to defend to prevent Jiang Xiaolin from breaking through the ball and forming a single-handed counterattack.

Jiang Xiaolin wanted to dribble the ball to the other side, but he accidentally looked up at the goal of Argentina and found that his club teammate Romero was not standing in the small penalty area, but outside the small penalty area.

Is this a good chance for a lob shot?

With this in mind, Jiang Xiaolin did not dribble the ball to counterattack, but took a step forward, adjusted it, and then suddenly kicked a long shot before crossing the center line and more than 50 meters away from the goal.

Unfortunately, although Jiang Xiaolin's long-range lob shot was sudden, because the goalkeeper was Romero, he still knew Jiang Xiaolin's shooting skills too well.

After seeing Jiang Xiaolin looking up in his direction, Romero suddenly realized what Jiang Xiaolin was going to do.

So, before Jiang Xiaolin kicked the lob shot, Romero had actually started to retreat.

Then, Jiang Xiaolin really kicked the ball before crossing the center line.

Jiang Xiaolin's shooting skills and strength are naturally excellent, and with his full on-the-spot condition, the quality of this ultra-long-range lob is very high.

If Romero had not retreated cautiously in advance, the ball might have really hit the crossbar and flew into the Argentine goal.

Unfortunately, Romero knew too much about Jiang Xiaolin, realized the danger in advance, retreated in advance, and finally jumped before the ball entered the net and lifted the ball over the crossbar.

Even so, Jiang Xiaolin's lob still made all Argentines sweat.

If Romero had not been reliable, if Jiang Xiaolin had shot the ball in, the Chinese team would have led Argentina 2-0.

That would have been even more difficult for the Argentines.

Fortunately, Romero finally stopped Jiang Xiaolin's ultra-long-range lob.

In the subsequent corner kick, Jiang Xiaolin failed to grab the first point and was cleared by Argentina's central defender Pareja out of the penalty area.

Argentina, startled by Jiang Xiaolin, was a little quiet for the next few minutes, and was a little afraid to press forward, resulting in a poor quality of attack, which gave the Chinese team a break.

It was not until the end of the first half, in the 45th minute, that Messi passed two people on the wing and posed a threat. After going down the bottom, he cut inside and made a triangle pass. Riquelme, who was outside the penalty area, made a long shot with great force, but was blocked by central defender Feng Xiaoting.

Then Zhao Xuri kicked the ball to the midfield to clear it.

Of course, this kick was a random clearance, and it was still far from Jiang Xiaolin. Jiang Xiaolin couldn't even grab the ball and counterattack, so he had to give up.

After 2 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half. The two sides entered the halftime break with a score of 1-0. The Chinese team led Argentina by 1 goal thanks to Jiang Xiaolin's counterattack goal in the 28th minute.

During the halftime break, the commentator and the guest analyzed and commented on the first half of the game:

Commentator: "Okay, the first half of the game is over. Both sides entered the halftime break with a score of 1-0. The Chinese Olympic team temporarily led by one goal. Coach Zhang, how do you think the Olympic team performed today?"

Guest: "To be honest, I was a little surprised. This is not a sarcastic statement, it is true. You know, before the final started, I thought it would be good if the Olympic team did not get a big bloodbath from Argentina, and don't even think about anything else. Leading, winning the championship, etc., can only be fantasized, but reason tells me that it is unrealistic."

"Unexpectedly, the game started Afterwards, although the situation was the same as I thought, with Argentina suppressing the Olympic team and bombarding them, the performance of the Olympic team really surprised me. "

"Although the first half was full of dangers and the individual technical strength was indeed very different, the Olympic team members burst out with full fighting spirit and enthusiasm, and resolved most of Argentina's attacks with tacit overall cooperation."

"Even if some attacks formed shots, they were finally resolved by the outstanding performance of goalkeeper Qiu Shengjiong."

"In addition, the Olympic team also used Jiang Xiaolin's counterattack ability to open the record, scored the first goal, and took a temporary lead at the end of the first half, which surprised and surprised me. I am also very happy. "

Commentator: "Yes, I am the same. I am also surprised and excited about the process and result of the first half of the game. I think many people are looking forward to the second half of the game. I don't know if the Olympic team can maintain the lead in the score, or even win in the end. Coach Zhang, what do you think?"

Guest: "To be honest, a one-goal lead is not an advantage at all. Facing Argentina with Riquelme, Di Maria, Messi and Aguero, a one-goal lead may disappear at any time. "

"Therefore, the second half of the game is unpredictable. But no matter what the result is , the performance of the National Olympic Team today is worthy of our praise. Being able to play like this in the first half, whether or not they can beat Argentina and win the championship in the end, the boys of the National Olympic Team deserve our praise and compliments. "

"Of course, if the National Olympic Team can really withstand the attack of the Argentines in the end, successfully win the final, the championship and the gold medal, then this will be the first time in the history of Chinese football to win the world championship, even including women's football."

"This is absolutely of great significance to the future development of Chinese football. Therefore, I still sincerely hope that the National Olympic Team can win in the end."

...

In fact, the last sentence of the guest is nonsense.

As a Chinese, does he dare to say that he does not sincerely hope that the National Olympic Team will win?

In contrast, the commentators and fans of Argentina seemed worried during the halftime break.

Before the final began, they did not expect the final to be played like this, and they did not expect that after the first half, Argentina would be behind.Ting.

But after watching the first half of the game, they had to admit that although the Chinese team was weak, their defense was really good.

Moreover, Jiang Xiaolin's counterattack was indeed very powerful, as evidenced by that goal.

In the second half, it was hard to say whether the Argentine attack group led by Riquelme could break the Chinese team's tortoise shell, break through the Chinese team's goal, and finally win the final and get the gold medal!

Of course, the fans and spectators of the Chinese team would not care so much.

Anyway, the performance of the Olympic team in the first half had exceeded everyone's expectations too much, and they had nothing to complain about even if they were reversed by the Argentines in the second half.

Everyone just had to celebrate the current lead of the Chinese team.

Of course, the Chinese team in the locker room during the halftime break would naturally not be so open-minded.

Since they have reached the finals and are temporarily ahead of their opponents, the Chinese team must unify their thoughts in the second half, and everyone should work together to try to maintain the leading advantage until the end of the game and finally get this precious Olympic gold medal.

Yin Tieshen gave instructions on the defense in the second half, asking the players to be more decisive and safe when cooperating in defense, and not let the Argentines attack the penalty area as recklessly as in the first half.

The Argentines made so many shots in the first half but did not score a goal. It cannot be said that the Chinese team's defense was successful, but that the Chinese team was just luckier.

In the second half, don't pin your hopes of not losing the ball on luck. You must curb it from the source and reduce the number of times the Argentines break into the penalty area and threaten the goal.

If necessary, you can foul the Argentines outside the penalty area.

After all, Argentina does not have a free kick master as powerful as Jiang Xiaolin.

Of course, no team has it.

Although it is a big threat to foul outside the penalty area and give the opponent a free kick, it is generally not as threatening as letting the opponent into the penalty area to shoot.

So, the free kick is given, and there is nothing to worry about.

As for Jiang Xiaolin, he must continue to stay in the midfield. Even if there is no chance of counterattack, he can also contain Argentina's midfielder and back line to prevent them from rushing up to assist.

Argentina's frontcourt attack threat is big enough. If other backcourt players are allowed to participate, it is really hard to say whether the Chinese team can defend.

It would be best if Jiang Xiaolin could contain three or four opponents by himself.

The idea is of course good, but Yin Tieshen ignored the technical strength of the Argentine players themselves.

Sometimes, when the strength is strong to a certain extent, it is not possible to defend it no matter how you arrange the tactics.

After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

As a result, just 50 seconds into the game, Messi unexpectedly did not use his skilled personal skills to break through Zheng Zhi in the middle of the field, but suddenly dodged an angle and made a through pass.

According to the first half of the game, Messi, who has excellent personal skills, will make more personal breakthroughs to create threats, so this through pass really caught the Chinese team off guard.

Even if the overall on-site state is 100%, it was not able to prevent Messi's through pass.

Argentina's striker Aguero entered the penalty area at the right time, received Messi's through pass in the gap, and shot the ball into the dead corner, and the ball went straight to the lower right corner of the goal.

Just when the fans of the Chinese team were so nervous that they dared not watch, and the Argentine fans stood up to celebrate the goal, the goalkeeper Qiu Shengjiong of the Chinese team saved the team.

He made a world-class save.

In a flash, he reacted immediately and successfully touched the ball, blocking Aguero's shot from the penalty area that was heading straight for the dead corner.
