God of Green

Jiang Xiaolin's hat trick, the total score of 4-1, and Australia's three-goal lead in another game gave all the fans on the scene and in front of the TV sufficient reasons to celebrate enthusiastically.

The Chinese players on the field also surrounded Jiang Xiaolin and congratulated him on his hat trick.

In fact, not only the fans, but also some players privately muttered why Jiang Xiaolin only had one goal and one assist in the first two games.

You know, this is Asia, and the level of the World Cup qualifiers may not be as high as the Eredivisie.

Jiang Xiaolin can score a lot of goals in the Eredivisie, why is the data so bleak in the Asian World Cup qualifiers.

Now, all doubts have disappeared.

4 goals, 1 assist, and 1 hat trick in 3 official games, such data is enough to conquer any fans and teammates.

Jiang Xiaolin's position in the national football team and even the Chinese football world is completely stable.

This time, the Chinese team's celebration lasted for almost a minute before it was stopped by the referee under the protest of the Iraqi players.

Afterwards, Iraq made substitutions and made a desperate effort to strengthen the attack.

They had to attack.

Although they were three goals behind and had little hope, they could only fight to the death.

If they lost this game, the Chinese team and Australia would advance together, which would naturally mean that Iraq and Qatar would be eliminated together.

Therefore, although they knew that the whole team's attack would leave Jiang Xiaolin too many counterattack opportunities in the backcourt, Iraq had no choice but to go all out to fight to the end.

However, the morale and state of the Chinese team at this time were a world apart from the previous game.

The good situation of leading by three goals and about to advance to the next round made the Chinese players unite and fight with all their strength, and work together to block the Iraqi counterattack.

With the configuration of double defensive midfielders, the Chinese team's defensive strength has improved a lot compared to before. With the retreat of the forwards and front midfielders, the Iraqi team's attack has always been thunderous but little rain, and they have never been able to break through the Chinese team's goal.

Not only could they not score, but they also had very few chances to enter the penalty area. Most of the time, they just shot the ball outside the penalty area when they could not find a way out.

On the other hand, the Chinese team kicked the ball out as soon as they got the ball, using Jiang Xiaolin's body, speed, and ability to grab points to fight for the front court and counterattack.

They were not afraid of kicking the ball far or not getting it in place. Anyway, the Chinese team was leading by three goals, so they were not afraid of wasting opportunities.

But as long as the pass was in place and Jiang Xiaolin received it once, it was possible to completely kill the game.

Sure enough, in the 81st minute, the Chinese team gave Iraq the final blow.

This time, it was also Iraq's attack, but the Iraqi midfielder Imad's pass was deviated due to the interference of Zheng Zhi, and was intercepted by the central defender Zhang Yaokun who saw the ball and grabbed it midway, and then passed it to Zhou Haibing.

Zhou Haibing did not hesitate, and kicked the ball to the front court again before the opponent counterattacked, letting Jiang Xiaolin grab it.

Since Jiang Xiaolin scored a hat trick and the Chinese team led 4-1, the Chinese team has been playing in such a simple and rough way, but most of the time the ball is not passed to Jiang Xiaolin.

This time the ball was not passed to the right side of the front court, and Zhou Haibing kicked it to the right side of the front court, close to the sideline.

However, the ball flew in the air for a long time, which gave Jiang Xiaolin enough time to run to the landing point of the ball, block his position, and unload the ball before Iraq's full-back Sad, and then break through the side with the ball.

Jiang Xiaolin's dribbling attribute is full value, and it is difficult for an Asian-level full-back to steal the ball from his feet.

Sad also understood this and did not try to steal the ball from Jiang Xiaolin's feet, but just blocked the inside line, trying to prevent Jiang Xiaolin from cutting in and shooting.

Jiang Xiaolin dribbled the ball while observing the middle. When he saw Huang Bowen rushing up to meet him, he did not try to break through THAAD and cut inside to shoot, but dribbled the ball to the bottom line at full speed.

Jiang Xiaolin's full dribbling and full speed allowed him to shake off THAAD even while dribbling.

Such a fierce speed of holding the ball caused an uproar among the fans in the stands, and countless people cheered loudly.

The Iraqi players, coaches and fans were stunned.

You know, as a full-back, he is responsible for assists, and THAAD's speed is not slow.

Unexpectedly, he was shaken off by Jiang Xiaolin who was running with the ball. In the eyes of the Iraqis, Jiang Xiaolin was simply too *.

No matter what the Iraqis thought, Jiang Xiaolin used his speed to shake off THAAD and reveal the space for crossing, and then kicked the ball about ten meters away from the bottom line.

Jiang Xiaolin had not yet started crossing, long passes, and aerial passes.Passing and other skills, his crosses are lucky.

Fortunately, his full-value short pass has a certain auxiliary bonus effect on his long pass and cross, which can prevent his side crosses from being too far off.

And this time, Jiang Xiaolin was also lucky and made a good pass.

The ball flew into the air, flew past the toes of Saad who flew to intercept, and fell into the Iraqi penalty area.

In addition to Iraq's central defender Hassam, the Chinese team's front midfielder Huang Bowen sprinted from outside the penalty area to the penalty area.

Behind Huang Bowen, there was another central defender Saleh who was chasing back to defense.

As long as Huang Bowen stopped for a while, Saleh would catch up and double-team him with Hassam.

But Huang Bowen was lucky that Jiang Xiaolin's cross was of good quality, with the right route and height. He didn't have to stop and wait, he just had to rush up at full speed.

Huang Bowen was originally blocked by the central defender Hassam who was running in front of him and could not make a diving header.

But the beauty of this ball is that Jiang Xiaolin's pass does not necessarily require a header. If you raise your foot a little higher, you can also use your foot to poke the ball.

So, at the moment when Hassam, who was running in front, lowered his head and prepared to head the ball out of the baseline, Huang Bowen, who was a little behind, suddenly jumped up, threw his whole body out, and then raised his right foot high.

He made a flying poke in the air in the Iraqi penalty area.

Then, under the gaze of all the fans at the scene and in front of the TV, Huang Bowen, who was flying and stabbing, was seen coming from behind and arriving first. The toe of his raised right foot just happened to poke the ball flying in the air before Hassam, who was heading the ball with his head down.

After the rapidly flying ball hit the toe of Huang Bowen, it suddenly changed direction and flew to the back of the Iraqi goal.

Then, Hassam bumped into Huang Bowen's shoes, and then they fell to the ground together.

But it was too late for everyone to pay attention to the two of them. The ball that was poked by Huang Bowen's toes had already passed the small penalty area and fell into the Iraqi goal.

The goalkeeper Noel, who was guarding the goal, changed his face and quickly stepped back to save the ball, but Huang Bowen's shot was too high, and it passed Noel's hand, then hit the bottom edge of the crossbar at the far end of the goal and bounced into the goal.

In the 81st minute of the second half, the Chinese team relied on Jiang Xiaolin's cross from the side in a counterattack, and Huang Bowen scored the fifth goal of the Chinese team with a shot. The Chinese team has taken a 5-1 lead.

Leading by four goals, this has completely killed the game. It is a foregone conclusion that the Chinese team and Australia will advance from Group A of the top 20 group stage of the World Cup Asian Qualifiers one round in advance.

The fans in the stands were already cheering and screaming excitedly, and Jiang Xiaolin and others on the field also rushed to Huang Bowen, who had just climbed up in the penalty area, to celebrate the goal.

However, another Iraqi player, Hassam, who had just climbed up, rushed to the referee excitedly and complained to the referee that the goal of the Chinese team was a foul and should be invalidated.

In Hassam's complaint, Huang Bowen's shot was too high and kicked him in the face, which was an obvious foul.

However, the referee looked at him as if he was a mentally retarded person and ignored him.

Hassam's complaint was too ridiculous.

This was a good ball.

Huang Bowen, who was behind, could only use this method to touch the ball.

What's more, it was Huang Bowen who touched the ball first. Hassam's face was not kicked by Huang Bowen actively, but Hassam wanted to head the ball and hit it himself.

Besides, this is the home court of the Chinese team today.

How dare the referee blow off the goal scored by the Chinese team in front of tens of thousands of Chinese fans, when there was no obvious foul?

Therefore, Hassam's appeal was obviously in vain.

In fact, no one on the Chinese team cared about Hassam at all. After the ball flew into the goal, everyone celebrated with abandon.

No one would think there was anything wrong with the ball.

This was a goal that sealed the victory. With a four-goal lead, no one would think that the Iraqis could turn the tables, including the Iraqis themselves.

Therefore, the Chinese team celebrated for a long time, almost a minute, and the Iraqis did not stand up to protest.

In the end, Jiang Xiaolin and others celebrated enough and slowly walked back to their own half to wait for the game to resume.

After the game resumed, Iraq really lost all its fighting spirit.

The score of 1-5 behind made all their energy and spirit drain out in an instant.

The next game became garbage time.

Head coach Forrado also replaced Jiang Xiaolin, Li Weifeng, Zhou Haibing and other players of the National Olympic Team to save their energy.

After the Chinese national football team qualified for the top 20,The next round of games became garbage time.

If there were no Olympics, the Chinese national football team could still fight with Australia in the last round.

But when Jiang Xiaolin and others need to participate in the national Olympic team training and prepare for the Olympics, there is no need to fight with Australia in the last round.

What's more, the last round is still an away game, and it is completely unnecessary to fly to distant Australia to play the game.

Therefore, the last round of games has been ignored by the coaching staff, and Jiang Xiaolin and other national Olympic team players were replaced in advance to prepare for the national Olympic training and games.

When Jiang Xiaolin left the court, he was applauded by the fans.

Because Jiang Xiaolin's performance in this game was really outstanding.

Not only did he complete a hat trick himself, but he also got an assist.

Iraq is not a weak team like Vietnam and Laos. Iraq's world ranking is even higher than that of the Chinese team.

In the World Cup qualifiers, Jiang Xiaolin was able to perform a hat trick in a single game plus an assist, which completely proved Jiang Xiaolin's ability and value.

With 4 goals and 2 assists in 3 games, Jiang Xiaolin led the Chinese team to advance to the World Cup Asian Qualifiers.

Without Jiang Xiaolin, when the Football Committee had given up the national team and gambled on the Olympics, whether the Chinese national football team could advance from the top 20 group stage would be a huge question mark!

It was Jiang Xiaolin who made the fans see the possibility of Chinese football breaking out of Asia and entering the World Cup finals for the second time.

Therefore, it was right for him to receive standing ovations from the fans when he left the court.

Jiang Xiaolin's departure did not cheer up the Iraqis, as the reality of being four goals behind made people see no hope at all.

The Iraqis had no desire to attack, and the Chinese players did not want to push too hard.

So, the next game became garbage time, and all the remaining time was consumed by the players of both sides dawdling.

Before the 3 minutes of stoppage time were over, the referee saw that the Iraqis who were behind did not want to play anymore, so he simply blew the whistle to end the game in advance.

The Chinese team defeated Iraq 5-1 in the fifth round of the Group A of the Asian 20 qualifiers for the South Africa World Cup, and advanced to the next round one round in advance together with Australia, which defeated Qatar 3-1 in another match.

After this round of matches, Australia ranked first in the group with 10 points, the Chinese team ranked second with 9 points, and Iraq and Qatar only had 4 points each.

With one round left, Iraq and Qatar could not catch up with the points of the Chinese team.

Therefore, there is no doubt that the Chinese team and Australia advanced to the next round in advance.

The Chinese fans in the stands and in front of the TV were celebrating enthusiastically.

Jiang Xiaolin also received the experience reward issued by the system when the referee blew the final whistle.

In terms of basic experience, Jiang Xiaolin received 1 assist 5000 + 3 goals 30,000 + win 20,000 = 55,000 basic experience in this game.

In terms of personal performance rating, Jiang Xiaolin was rated as excellent by the system with a rating coefficient of 4.

Jiang Xiaolin finally gained a total experience of 55,000*4=220,000, which was definitely a big gain.

After receiving the 220,000 experience reward, Jiang Xiaolin's level experience rose to level 17, 235,100/300,000. One game increased his level experience by more than half.

The experience reward for the national team game was so generous that there was nothing to say.

Jiang Xiaolin was also very happy to gain so much experience. Together with his teammates, he interacted with countless Chinese fans who stayed in the stands.

As for the Iraqi team, they had already left the stadium dejectedly.

Although there was still one round of group matches to be played, in fact, their journey to the South Africa World Cup qualifiers had ended ahead of schedule.

The next time they wanted to participate in the World Cup qualifiers, it would be another four years later.

And the Chinese team, led by Jiang Xiaolin, will once again launch an attack on the top ten games, striving to enter the World Cup finals for the second time.
