Seven Crowns

In the 5th minute, the Chinese team escaped unharmed.

However, it didn't matter how long.

In the 8th minute, Nigeria pushed the ball into the penalty area, causing all Chinese players including Lu Wenbin to feel nervous, and they went to block the Nigerian players in the penalty area.

As a result, striker Oduamati made an inverted triangle pass and passed the ball from the corner of the small penalty area to the top of the arc of the large penalty area, which shocked the Chinese players who were piled up in the penalty area.

Under the astonished eyes of the Chinese players, Nigerian central defender Echegil rushed up to meet the ball and shot angrily.

The ball soared into the air and hit the leg of Zhao Xuri, who was hastily blocking the hole of the gun, causing a change of line, bypassing Zeng Cheng's ten fingers, and falling into the goal of the Chinese team.

Although it was a lucky ball, Nigeria finally scored a goal, and it was the goal of the Chinese team led by the world's number one superstar Lu Wenbin.

For a moment, the audience was silent, only a few thousand Nigerian fans cheered wildly in a corner.

The Chinese team led by Lu Wenbin fell behind 0-1 to the African champion Nigeria in less than 10 minutes in the first game of the Confederations Cup.

Zhao Xuri slapped his forehead, very annoyed.

Lu Wenbin walked over to comfort him and let his teammates continue the game.

After the re-kick-off, Lu Wenbin tried to dribble the ball past several players and staged a one-stop goal, but the Nigerians were already prepared for this.

Just after passing the first man, Lu Wenbin was tackled down by the second man with the ball.

Although he won a free kick, but because he was still far from the goal, the threat was not great, the opponent did not receive a yellow card, and Lu Wenbin's free kick did not pose any threat.

Although it hit the goal frame, it was easily hugged by the opponent's goalkeeper Enyema.

In the 16th minute, Lu Wenbin finally got a good opportunity to counterattack. He dribbled the ball from the side and then cut inside.

As a result, Wu Lei passed the ball away under the interference of the opponent's defender. Another defender grabbed the ground tackle before Lu Wenbin and stabbed the ball away.

In the 25th minute, when Nigeria's defense basically focused on Lu Wenbin,

Full-back Hao Junmin broke through easily and crossed to Wu Lei, who forced a save from the goalkeeper and won a corner for China.

As a result, although Lu Wenbin's zero-degree corner kick hit the goal frame, it was not directly picked up by the goalkeeper, but the entry position was slightly lower, and a defender at the back post came out to clear the siege.

Lu Wenbin missed a zero-degree shot in the Confederations Cup.

It wasn't until the 34th minute that Lu Wenbin and his teammates played a classic cooperation to enter the penalty area and successfully kicked the goal, and the ball went straight to the dead corner.

Unexpectedly, the goalkeeper Enyema made a world-class save like a goalkeeper, fell to the ground and lifted Lu Wenbin's ball, then the ball missed and hit the post.

The ball bounced back and was held in Enyema's arms directly, without even giving Lu Wenbin the chance to make a follow-up shot.

Even Lu Wenbin's close-range shot in the penalty area did not score, the Chinese team was a little unlucky today.

While the Chinese team was unable to score goals, Nigeria continued to use their strong physique and speed to attack the Chinese team's defense.

In the twentieth minute, Nigeria had a shot that almost caused a goal, and finally hit the post before escaping.

However, in the 42nd minute, the Chinese team finally ushered in a second goal.

This is a free kick given by Zheng Zhi to block the foul. Nigerian midfielder Mikel shot directly from the free kick and hit the goal frame.

The angle of this ball is actually not tricky, but it is very powerful.

Zeng Cheng gave him a hug, but he didn't hug him. The ball bounced off his chest: Zeng Cheng let go.

Players from both sides who rushed into the penalty area wanted to grab the first point, but in the end they were grabbed by Nigerian striker Moussa.

He fell to the ground early and shot the ball from Zeng Cheng's feet into the goal.

Then Musa was crushed by two members of the Chinese team, but it was of no avail.

The Chinese team fell behind 0-2 to the African champions Nigeria in the first game of the Confederations Cup. Lu Wenbin, who had high hopes, failed to score a goal.

Many people murmured in their hearts: Could it be that Lu Wenbin just got married, and he is still on his honeymoon, and his feet are weak?

In fact, the Chinese team was overwhelmed by the Nigerian attack, Lu Wenbin was too far back, and other players could not support Lu Wenbin, even as a fulcrum.

Coupled with a little luck, it has not been able to score.

Only the excited celebrations of the Nigerians remained on the court, and the Chinese team was silent for a while, from the players to the fans.

After the fiasco of the 2002 World Cup, every Chinese, including players and fans, knows the gap between Chinese football and the world. In this Confederations Cup, no one will openly talk about who to stare at, who to beat, and how many points to qualify. problem.

Everyone knows that Nigeria, the African champion, must be difficult to deal with. Although it is not as famous as the European and American teams, it is definitely better than the Asian teams.

Unexpectedly, it was so strong that the Chinese team with Lu Wenbin was almost powerless to fight back.

The Chinese team was almost a defensive line for the bus, and with the help of Lu Wenbin, they were all hit by Nigeria.

Except for Lu Wenbin, the height, weight, physique, speed, endurance, jumping, etc. of Chinese players are almost all at a disadvantage in the face of Nigerian black players.

It's no wonder that Nigeria can't stop the impact.

Everyone was a little discouraged.

After the game restarted, Lu Wenbin tried to use the kick-off to launch an attack, but after passing three people and almost entering the penalty area, the Nigerian midfielder and defender jointly poked the ball away.

A few minutes later, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, and the Chinese team entered the locker room with a score of 0-2.

When the Chinese players left the field, each of them looked stern.

When the Nigerian players left the field, they all looked like peach blossoms, as if they had won the victory.

During the intermission, the Nigerian locker room was full of laughter, while the Chinese locker room was silent.

Gao Hongbo was at a loss what to do about it.

In fact, the biggest reliance of the Chinese team is Lu Wenbin's goal.

Lu Wenbin scored a goal, and then the defense defended Lu Wenbin's scoring advantage. This is the tactics of the Chinese team, and everyone knows it.

But the problem now is that the strength gap between the two sides is too far away, Lu Wenbin doesn't have many chances to shoot, and his luck is also a little bit bad, so he hasn't been able to score.

Then, the Chinese team's defense was not good either. They were constantly attacked by their opponents, and then lost two goals.

Now, the Chinese team is behind 0-2, can they equalize or even reverse in the second half?

Gao Hongbo has no idea.

Just when Gao Hongbo was scratching his head and ears trying to find a way, and other players were drinking water or closing their eyes to rest their minds, Lu Wenbin made a proposal: he retreated and played the midfielder, and Zheng Zhi played the front midfielder in advance.
