Chapter 109: Fierce Battle

  In 2001, when the national football team first entered the World Cup, everyone was slightly excited, but the next year, when they came to the World Cup final round, China's true strength was exposed in front of strong teams. The three losses in the group stage and nine goals conceded made Chinese fans lose face in front of European colleagues and friends when talking about football, especially Chinese football. However, this current Chinese team, although it's just a youth team, has such an impressive performance that everyone can proudly say to the Dutch "you're just our defeated opponent" in the future. Just thinking about those arrogant guys being humbled makes everyone feel as comfortable as drinking iced drinks on a hot summer day...

  Klautzen, who had to use him despite his strong abilities before, but still had some reservations in his heart because of his importance, sincerely applauded and congratulated him. Despite being subjected to such tight defense, he was still able to come up with a way to break through and score, this kind of player is indeed too great, even if their existence would weaken the head coach's role and authority, no head coach would dare not to use them!

  As for the Dutch team's head coach, his expression was even more wonderful at this time. He thought he had designed a perfect strategy to seal off Gao Jun, but Gao Jun still grasped the opportunity to score a goal in an instant, making all his deployments useless. This kind of frustration is really hard to describe in words.

  Even pseudo-ball fans know that a shooter, even if he's been daydreaming the whole game, can still be the team's hero by grasping one or two opportunities. Gao Jun's performance in this match is a perfect example of this.

  At that time, when he was the head coach himself, Gao Jun's biggest worry was that the opponent would have a player suddenly "explode" and make his carefully designed tactics meaningless with their super strong personal performance. However, now that he has become a player again, Gao Jun instead enjoys the thrill of making the opposing team's coach suffer, which can be seen from the fact that after scoring a goal, he rarely raises his hands high and lets out a long roar...

  The Dutch team's head coach is now very anxious, he not only feels dissatisfied with the disciples' negligence just now, but also worries about the extremely unfavorable situation on the field. If it was only one goal behind, the Dutch team's head coach believed that even if they played steadily and stably, with their own strength and home advantage, they would eventually be able to tie the score back. However, being two goals behind, even knowing that China's counterattack is extremely sharp, he can only wave his hand to signal the players to press up all lines.

  In this way, the Dutch team can no longer maintain the previous tight blockade on Gao Jun, and they can only hope to score first and then not have to continue taking risks by launching a crazy attack. Therefore, in the last bit of time left in the first half, the Dutch were almost desperately attacking non-stop.

  In the 39th minute of the first half, Netherlands' Abiehe started from the right route and passed into the penalty area. Wu Lei made a high-difficulty header at the edge of the small penalty area, and the ball flew into the lower left corner after bouncing off the ground. Zeng Cheng, who was not fast enough to fall to the ground, could only watch the ball and sigh. China's advantage was reduced to one goal.

  In the midfield, Gao Lin wanted to repeat his old trick, but the Dutch players who had been fooled once directly fouled and disrupted China's quick attack. Since the foul was far from the goal, the offending player did not even receive a verbal warning from the referee, and China also failed to make anything out of this free kick opportunity.

  It was the Netherlands team that regained their morale and launched another threatening attack before the end of the game. Abjei, who performed well in this match, had a wide range of activities, and after Yu Hai's defense and right-wing counterattack increased in difficulty, he ran to the left wing again and quickly found an opportunity. He dribbled past two Chinese players with a low shot, but fortunately, Zeng Cheng reacted quickly and pounced on the ball, directly taking away the corner kick that the Netherlands team had just opened, and managed to maintain their one-goal lead in the first half.

  "What's wrong with you? The Dutch team pressed up, and you didn't dare to attack? ", Coach Klautsen expressed his dissatisfaction with the performance of the national youth team in the second half of the first half, but also encouraged them, "Why did the Dutch team not dare to press up and launch a crazy attack before? Until they fell behind by two goals, why did they start doing this? Isn't it because they are afraid of our sharp counterattack? Even they themselves fear us. Everyone should believe in their own strength! Yu Hai's performance in the first half was very good, I hope everyone can learn from him; Gao Jun, the opponent's defense against you is not as tight as it was at the beginning, with your ability, you should make a greater contribution; Rong Huan, your performance in the first half was too quiet, with your quality, you can become a sharp knife on the side of the team; Huo Junsen, your breakthrough ability is the strongest in our team, I hope to see your active performance in the second half... As for the defensive problem, Feng should provide timely support on the left flank, and Zeng Cheng should also expand his activity range. I believe you have this ability..."

  At the beginning of the second half, the Chinese team started to press all over the court. The Dutch team, who had planned to rush out and score a goal, was suddenly disrupted, while the Chinese team took advantage of a successful steal to launch a counterattack.

  Although Gao Jun's defense was not as tight as the first half, he still received a lot of interference and it was not easy to pass the ball. Therefore, after Zhou Huaikai received Zhao Yiyi's pass, she chose to pass the ball to Yu Hai, who had been active in the first half.

  As soon as Yu Hai got the ball, the Dutch defenders were on high alert, but this time he didn't try to force a breakthrough himself. Instead, he took a few steps to the side and then suddenly pushed the ball into the empty space on the left with the outside of his left foot. Rong Hao, who had already picked up speed, sprinted out to receive the pass like a whirlwind, taking the ball straight towards the baseline. He was perfectly in sync with the ball's speed, leaving Yu Hai behind. The Dutch team could only send their central defender to make an emergency defense, but just as he tried to block Rong Hao's passing route, Rong Hao suddenly changed direction and dodged him, cutting inside and making a direct dash towards the goal.

  The Dutch goalkeeper rushed to the near post to block the shooting route, and Rong Huang made a pass, two Chinese players rushed to the penalty area, and the ball went in! Yu Hai jumped high and headed the ball, changing direction and flying into the far corner. The Chinese team took a 3-1 lead again! Yu Hai's performance in this game was really hot! And Rong Huang's cross was also of high quality, making it easy for Yu Hai to head the ball, the two are indeed the golden partners on the left flank. Huang Jianxiang couldn't help but praise Yu Hai and Rong Huang's performance.
