Ice Shooter of the Green Field

After the game, what the chief referee Jin Dongzhen was most worried about happened.

Zize's performance successfully made the game out of the circle. Recently, except for the UK, most of the leagues are in the offseason. Fans who don't have many games to pay attention to have also noticed the Asian Cup that Zize is participating in.

A hat-trick to knock out the hosts?

This does not seem to be a headline worthy of attention. Most people have heard of Zize's level, and it seems nothing special to stage a hat-trick in the Asian Cup to eliminate a big team.

But the other way of writing news is different, and many people immediately noticed this.

Ice Prince's hat-trick crushes dark political football!

Or write it this way: A plan that even black whistle can't stop!

Headlines like these can easily arouse the interest of fans, and Jin Dongzhen's name suddenly became popular in Europe along with Qi Ce.

Especially in Italy, Chice is quite well-known in Italy. After all, the Golden Boy Award awarding organization Torino Sport is from Italy. Equally outstanding, attracted the attention of many Italian media.

There are also many Italian media who saw this game, and then saw that Jin Dong is really Korean, so it was natural that they would be ridiculed.

Italy certainly doesn't have any favorable impressions of Koreans in terms of football. Qi Ce's move has sparked a wave of anti-Korean sentiment in Italy.

Of course, the game still has to go on.

The Chinese team that qualified ahead of schedule was against Uzbekistan in the last round. The two teams won two victories respectively. Uzbekistan ranked ahead with the advantage of goal difference. The Chinese team won Kuwait 2:0 and Qatar 3:2. Goal difference, while Uzbekistan, which beat the hosts 2:0 in the first round, defeated Kuwait 3:1 in the second round, with a goal difference of four.

The goal of the Chinese team in the last round is naturally to win with all their strength, because the second place in Group B is Jordan, and the first is Japan. If they fall to second place in the group, they will play Japan, the main force.

After 90 minutes of fierce fighting, Qi Ce made a great contribution with a pass and shot, helping the team beat Uzbekistan 2:1. The other player who scored was Qu Bo.

With three consecutive victories, it is not easy to qualify from a group with a host. The consumption of the second game is still quite high. Qi Ce is a little bit powerless in the third game, after all, the time interval is too short.

Big cup matches are played every three days. Against Uzbekistan, Gao Hongbo replaced Qi Ce in about 70 minutes of the second half.

It is also one of the few rest periods.

The Chinese team without Qi Ce also had a difficult game at the last moment, but fortunately they kept their lead and won the first place in the group.

This result basically met the minimum expectations of the fans, but encountered difficulties from the host Qatar in the middle, and the fans turned part of their expectations for the game into dissatisfaction with Qatar. Faced with Qatar's wonderful performance, the fans are already very satisfied.

However, with the exit of the host country, the shady rumors about the Asian Cup have also dissipated. It seems that the Qatari royal family is still very concerned about face, and the exit is a foregone conclusion. laughing stock.

Of course, these turmoil in China will definitely not be eliminated in a short time. The money of the oil daddies seems to be far from enough to face such a huge bottomless pit in China.

knockout.

The Chinese team that won the first place in Group A entered the upper half. The opponent in the first round of the knockout round was Jordan, the first in Group B, and the biggest opponent in the upper half was Australia, the first in Group C.

Jordan’s strength is not too strong. It should be said that the Chinese team’s victory over their opponents is not a big problem. After watching the performance against Qatar, the fans will understand that Qi Ce, who is at the top level in Europe, is a complete kill against opponents with a large gap in strength. As a weapon, Jordan's strength is not much stronger than that of Qatar.

Note that Australia.

Since Australia joined the AFC in 2005, they have been ambitious to compete for the Asian championship, but in the 2007 Asian Cup among the four Southeast Asian countries, Australia was blocked from the top four by the Japanese team, which made them realize that Asia is not easy to mix.

Of course, this is also the reason why Australia joined the AFC. Australia’s opponents in Oceania are all tiny island countries. Except for New Zealand, there is still a little bit of competitiveness. Australia has no opponents, so much so that it even played 31:0. Outrageous score.

Being invincible is always lonely, and more importantly, Australia knows that it is not invincible. It is just a sense of helplessness that a college student has to fight with kindergarten children when he goes to kindergarten, so Australia decided to join a place that is at least a university.

However, the Chinese team encountered trouble in the first round of the knockout round.

It's not about Zize's performance, but the other players, they all seem to be too nervous!

Against Jordan, the Chinese team conceded the ball due to inattention in the fifth minute of the game. Zhao Peng short-circuited the ball for a while, and Wang Qiang, who replaced the suspended captain Du Wei in the starting lineup, was slower to fill the position. Seize the opportunity to single-handedly break through!

Then it wasn't over.

Left back Rong Hao injured his ankle in a fight. In the 17th minute, the Chinese team had to use the first substitution. Li Xuepeng came off the bench to replace Rong Hao.

In this game, Malik, who was on duty as the referee, also favored Jordan. Although it was not as obvious as Jin Dongzhen, several penalties were more inclined to Jordan.

Many fans made their conclusions at halftime. This must be the pressure from Qatar to make the Chinese team that eliminated them look good!

But they apparently forgot about Zize!

Before the end of the half-time game, Qi Ce made a ghostly run in the penalty area to score a goal and equalized the score. In stoppage time in the first half, Qi Ce reversed the score with a long shot!

Another brace!

Jordan's defense couldn't face Qi Ce's outburst. In the second half, Qi Ce made a counter-offside run but was blown off by the referee. Less than ten minutes later, Qi Ce once again staged a solo breakthrough!

Then the ball faced the goalkeeper, and Qi Ce sent the empty goal opportunity to Yang Xu with a cross pass, and the score was overtaken by 3:1!

In the end, the Chinese team eliminated Jordan 3:1 and achieved the first knockout victory of the adult national team after seven years.

The last time the adult national team won the knockout round dates back to the local Asian Cup. In that Asian Cup, the Chinese team reached the final all the way, but since then the Chinese team has never eliminated an opponent in the knockout round.

Careful fans have also discovered that the Chinese national teams at all levels rely on a unified strategy to win the knockout rounds in intercontinental competitions. Neither the Olympic team nor the national team has won even a knockout match.

And this Asian Cup event is undoubtedly the most important. To put it bluntly, the youth team competition is actually serving the future adult team. It tests the reserve force of national football talents. In the end, the ranking of the national team is measured by the results of the adult team.

After defeating Jordan, the Chinese team also successfully entered the semi-finals of the Asian Cup.

There were no upsets in the semi-finals. Japan eliminated Uzbekistan 3:1 and reached the semi-finals. South Korea beat Iran and Japan 1:0 in overtime to meet in the semi-finals. Australia also defeated the defending champion Iraq in overtime. The score is also 1:0, and the semi-finals have been released.

China, Japan, South Korea, and Australia, four teams from East Asia that were not originally part of Asia, were shortlisted for the semi-finals in the Asian Cup held in West Asia.

In the first half of the semi-finals, China VS Australia, and in the second half, Japan VS South Korea.

This kind of Asian Cup has attracted tens of thousands of East Asian fans to watch. Many fans laughed and said that the Asian Cup was abruptly kicked into the East Asian semi-finals, because the Australian Football Association has expressed its intention to participate in the East Asian Football Association headquarters in Tokyo. The proposal has been approved and Australia is expected to participate in the next East Asian Cup, which is expected to be held in South Korea.

Although Australia needs to participate in the qualifying rounds, facing some relatively weak opponents in East Asia, it can basically be said that a place in the finals has been reserved. In this case, the next East Asian semi-finals will be China, Japan, South Korea and Australia.

Just like the semi-finals of this Asian Cup.

Facing Australia, an opponent that has not long joined the AFC, the Chinese team also attaches great importance to it.

Judging from the historical record of the three matches in the past four years, the Chinese team and Australia are evenly divided. In the 2008 World Cup preliminaries, they won one and one tie, and lost to their opponents in the friendly match in 2007. Since 1923, the Chinese team has won 4 wins, 2 draws and 2. Negative maintains advantage.

However, today's Australia is not what it used to be.

After joining the Asian Football Association, Australia got the chance to play against strong teams. This football style is very English team, and its strength has made great progress.
