Football: Shine in the AFC Champions League and sign with Arsenal on the spot

Inside Saitama 2002 Stadium.

At this time, the score on the big screen was displayed at 2:1, and the Japanese team was ahead.

Japan's striker Akito Uzumaki, who scored the goal, celebrates wildly with his teammates in the corner kick area.

Prior to this, the Chinese team had just scored the equalizer with a corner kick opportunity, but they were overtaken so quickly.

Chen Fan, who was standing near the center circle, gasped and looked at the opposing players who were celebrating.

The eyes gradually sharpened.

Beep!

After the Japanese players celebrated, the game continued.

"The game time has come to the 73rd minute, and it is dangerous to concede a goal at this time, I hope the players of the Chinese team can adjust their mentality."

Huang Jianxiang also followed the Huaxia team to the Saitama Stadium to comment, and now he is full of sadness.

For no other reason, the strength of the Japanese team is significantly stronger than that of the Chinese team.

Although it has not yet reached the point of crushing, the situation on the field is very unfavorable to the Huaxia team.

Look at the pitch again.

Japan launched another attack, Shinji Kagawa's middle was transmitted and the football came to the feet of Keisuke Honda.

In the end, Keisuke Honda directly kicked it in, and it was clear that he wanted to pass to Shinji Okazaki in the frontcourt.

However, fortunately, the new generation of midfielder Baal of the Chinese team made up for the football in time to stop the football and save the day.

"Si Guoyi! The Huaxia team not only has Chen Fan and Li Ke, but also their AFC Champions League champion core midfielder Baal!

Japanese commentator Kato Tsuru said with some sighs.

As he said, this Huaxia team has gradually formed a central axis with Li Ke, Ba Li, and Chen Fan as the core.

These three players have significantly enhanced the competitiveness of the Chinese team.

Because of this, there was no one-sided situation in this game, at least the Chinese team still had the strength to fight back.

Japan, who then had already taken a one-goal lead, opted to drop back slightly.

Their idea was simple: as the game drew to a close, there was no need to continue taking risks.

The coach of the Chinese team on the sidelines, Capello, also responded when he saw that the opponent began to implement a steady style of play.

He shouted loudly from the sidelines to attract the attention of the Chinese players, and then pushed hard with both hands in front of the opponent.

Offensive!

Capello's idea is simple, instead of being worn to death by the opponent, it is better to strengthen the attack and fight to the death.

He didn't think about whether it would magnify the flaws in the back, he only knew that there was not a point in the loss.

Because as the Chinese team that has entered the top 10 after many years, if it wants to qualify for the World Cup, it must score points against Japan, the strongest team in the group.

The group includes: Japan, Australia, Oman, Iraq, and China.

The top two in the group can directly qualify for the World Cup, while the third place plays a play-off against the third team in the other group and then competes with the fifth-place team in South America.

However, Asian teams have almost always failed in the play-offs, so if the Chinese team aims for the World Cup, they will have to fight for a direct qualification for the top two of the group.

Scoring points against Japan, the strongest team on paper, would be a huge advantage for the rest of the team.

Therefore, the Chinese players on the field also agreed with Capello's instructions and began to gradually strengthen the attack.

In the 81st minute of the game, Tang Feng, the center of the Chinese team, shot a heavy cannon at the top of the arc of the opponent's penalty area.

The football rushed towards the goal of the Japanese team, and the momentum was huge, causing bursts of exclamations from the fans present.

However, the flying height of the football was insufficient, and it was pushed out with his head after jumping off by the opponent's main defender Hasebe.

Makoto Hasebe, who had topped out the football, fell to the ground and fell to the lawn with his head covered.

The power of Tang Fei's heavy artillery shot was extraordinary, and this time he fell directly to the ground.

On the field, the referee hurriedly blew the whistle and waved his hand to let the team doctor on the sidelines enter the field.

Without his instructions, the team doctors of the Japanese team also rushed to Makoto Hasebe, who fell to the ground.

After a moment's diagnosis, the team doctor signaled that a sideline stretcher could be played, as if it were a concussion.

Japan's defender was injured and went off the pitch, which weakened the morale of the home fans in attendance.

However, the substitution quota has not been used up, and a substitute defender has been replaced.

After this episode, the game was played again.

At this time, the time on the big screen had come to the 86th minute, and Makoto Hasebe's injury consumed several minutes.

Bah!

Chen Fan looked at the opponent's goal and was speechless.

In this game, Chen Fan's right side was used as the opponent's key defensive area, and several players were sent to mark the defense.

Even though his speed and skill were outstanding, he couldn't make a successful breakthrough every time.

He's waiting for an opportunity.

And this opportunity did arise!

In the 89th minute of the game, Zheng Zhi grabbed the football in the middle circle, and decisively chose to pass diagonally in the face of the opposing player who quickly counter-robbed.

There was Baal in the direction of the diagonal pass, and after receiving the ball, he drove the ball forward.

Keisuke Honda tried to cut off the ball at Baal's feet, but was turned and crossed by Baal with a quick pluck.

"Wow! Baal!

Huang Jianxiang, who was in the commentary seat, had his eyes shining and shouted excitedly.

From this achievement, it can be seen that Baal's strength has indeed reached the level of landing in Europe.

After passing the opposing player, Baal looked up, and the direction of the view was naturally to the right.

At this time, Chen Fan on the right side had already started and stepped forward.

The defender in the blue jersey waited in advance in the forward position.

But what he didn't expect was that Chen Fan didn't really want to step forward, but a feint, which made several defenders out of position.

As soon as Chen Fan's foot wind turned to the middle lane, he retreated to meet Baal.

Baal passed the football to Chen Fan, and he quickly stepped forward.

This scene is the opposite of what happened before.

At this time, the Japanese defenders were already focusing on the two and anticipating the passing routes between them.

Boom!

Chen Fan's left foot stretched out and slammed into the football.

Shinji Kagawa hurriedly intercepted the route between him and Baal, but the football did not appear there.

Looking back, the ball had already slipped past several defenders and headed for the home team's penalty area.

"Straight stopper! Pretty! Didn't pass it to Baal, Wu Lei!

Huang Jianxiang shouted, he saw Wu Lei's success in anti-offside!

Wu Lei started to start after seeing Chen Fan catch the ball.

Regardless of whether he passes it to himself or not, only running positions have a chance.

And this opportunity came.

Wu Lei stopped the football steadily, saw that the opponent's goalkeeper was a little far away from him, and wanted to adjust it before shooting.

"Be careful!"

Wu Lei on the field had just adjusted his shooting posture and wanted to shoot, but found that there was a figure in the afterglow.

Blue!

At this point, it was too late to shoot, so I had to flick the ball out.

Boom!

It wasn't the sound of shooting, Wu Lei fell in the penalty area.

Beep!

The referee saw clearly from the back that Yuto Nagatomo's foot did not touch the football, but put Wu Lei down in the penalty area.

Yellow dot set, essential!

"Beautiful! Pretty! At the end of the game, the Chinese team won a penalty! This is a chance to be a perfect match! This

penalty was made by Wu Lei, and Chen Fan, as the first penalty taker in the team, wanted to give him this equalizing opportunity.

However, Wu Lei did not agree and insisted on letting Chen Fan punish him.

In this case, Chen Fan will no longer refuse.

Boom!

With a burst shot, the goalkeeper of the Japanese team, Kawashima Eiji, looked at the ball and sighed.

Huaxia 2:2 Japan!
