The Japanese team grabbed possession of the ball again, and after Wu Lei broke the ball, they quickly launched a counterattack. The frontcourt Honda Keisuke, Kagawa Shinji and Okazaki Shinji quickly cooperated to advance.

Most of the players of the Chinese team overwhelmed the opponent's half, forming a 3-on-3 unfavorable situation in the backcourt.

"Shinji Kagawa took the ball, it's dangerous, the defense line of the Chinese team is too empty!" Duan Xuan's worried voice sounded, accompanied by the drumming noise of nearly 10,000 Japanese fans at the scene, and more than 30,000 Chinese fans gasped. The sound of air conditioning.

Xia Ze had already pressed in front of the opponent's big penalty area at this time, so he could only run back as best as he could. Watching the rapid advance of the Japanese team, he felt a little chilled in his heart.

The speed of the Japanese team's advancement is too fast, and the passing and running positions between the three players are very tacit. This time I am afraid it will be dangerous again.

Shinji Kagawa rushed quickly in the middle, while Shinji Okazaki and Keisuke Honda were interspersed in front, messing up the Chinese team's defense.

Just as he was about to hit the ball, a red figure shoveled up behind him, knocking Shinji Kagawa to the ground with the shovel.

With a scream from Shinji Kagawa, the referee blew his whistle and quickly ran to the scene of the incident.

"Oh, it's Zheng Zhi. He shoveled Shinji Kagawa from behind. This is a tactical foul." Duan Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The referee ran over and first looked at Shinji Kagawa's injury. The players from the Japanese team surrounded him and asked the referee for an explanation. Shinji Kagawa still covered his feet, looking very painful, and the team doctor from the sidelines also ran in immediately.

Zheng Zhi and Honda Keisuke, who was on the other side, muttered a few words, and the two immediately pushed and shoved, and other Japanese team players immediately joined the battle, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

Seeing Zheng Zhi being besieged, Xia Ze and other players from the Chinese team rushed over to block the players from the Japanese team.

Beep! ! Beep! ! !

The referee's whistle kept ringing in the crowd, and the linesman on the side of the Chinese team immediately ran over to block the players from both sides.

After mediation by the referee, the players on both sides also calmed down. The referee called Zheng Zhi over, talked to him, took out the yellow card from his pocket, and gave Zheng Zhi a warning.

After a brief treatment, Shinji Kagawa went to the sidelines with the support of the team doctor.

The game also started again, and the Japanese team got a free kick in the frontcourt, about 35 yards away from the goal.

"Come on, we're representing China now, let's fight together!" After Zheng Zhi received the yellow card, he was not affected in any way and instead yelled at his teammates.

Looking at Zheng Zhi's serious and fierce expression, Xia Ze understood his intention of taking a tough tackle.

One is to prevent the opponent's quick counterattack, which is a tactical foul; the other is to infect the teammates around him through tough and fierce fighting.

After the Japanese team took a free kick, Xia Ze immediately stepped forward and frantically pressed the Japanese team's players with the ball. His move, whether it was the Japanese team's players or the opponents around him, stunned for a moment.

However, under the influence of the actions of Xia Ze and Zheng Zhi, the other players of the Chinese team clearly felt the signal from the two of them—to fight hard.

In the next few minutes, the players of the Chinese team used a wide range of running and fierce pressing to make up for the technical and tactical gap between the two sides at the cost of fouls, and to wear down the opponent's fighting spirit.

This action really worked. After 10 minutes, the players of the Japanese team obviously did not pass and receive the ball as calmly as they did in the opening game. Instead, they seemed a little flustered in the press of the Chinese team, and the number of pass errors increased significantly.

Endo Yasuhito took the ball in the backcourt and threw it straight to Shinji Kagawa's feet, but before Shinji Kagawa turned around, he was directly intercepted by Zheng Zhi behind him.

The ball was quickly passed to Xia Ze's feet. Ai Huang on the right side of the frontcourt, Gao Bo in the center and Wu Lei on the left were all running, but Xia Ze couldn't find a good place to get the ball out.

Although the midfield organization of the Japanese team was somewhat chaotic under the pressure of the Chinese team, their defense in the backcourt was quite solid, and Xia Ze couldn't find a space to pass the ball for a while.

I can only break through with the ball by myself!

Pushing the ball forward, Xia Ze pushed it into the opponent's half. In front of him, Endo Yasuhito stepped back and stared at the ball at Xia Ze's feet.

"Xia Ze dribbled the ball and made a breakthrough. Okay, after passing the opponent's half, face Endo Yasuhito..." Duan Xuan's voice began to increase. In the last 10 minutes, he saw that the mental state of the Chinese team had changed. The approach is getting tighter.

"A feint, okay, passed Endo Yasuhito, Gao Bo has already run out of the open space in front!"

"Hey! Yasuhito Endo made a pulling motion in his hands, and there was a foul, and the referee whistled for the foul!"

Endo Yasuhito was worried that Xia Ze's continued breakthrough would pose a great threat to the defense line, so he pulled Xia Ze down before he entered the 30-yard area.

The referee whistled and ran over without hesitation and gave Endo Yasuhito a yellow card, which caused cheers from the Chinese fans in the stands.

The Chinese team got a free kick at about 35 yards on the right side of the front court. Ai Huang stood in front of the ball, ready to take the penalty. Zhang Wei, Mei Fang, Zhang Linpeng and other big men also ran into the penalty area, ready to respond to Cai Huikang's pass .

"Xia Ze, you go in, I'll watch behind you!" Zheng Zhi came over and told Xia Ze.

Xia Ze looked up at the captain's firm gaze, nodded immediately, pulled the socks on his feet, and ran into the penalty area. Although he is not as tall as Zhang Wei, he still has an advantage in front of the players of the Japanese team.

The Chinese team won the first frontcourt free kick after the opening. There were more than a dozen players from both sides in the penalty area. Xia Ze stood in front of the penalty area and looked in Ai Huang's direction.

He didn't intend to compete for the first spot, after all, there were Mei Fang, Zhang Wei and Zhang Linpeng there, which was enough.

Next to him is Shinji Kagawa. At this time, this player who once played for Manchester United is also very nervous about Xia Ze's marking.

Ai Huang's free kick went straight to the back point. Zhang Wei, Zhang Linpeng and the opponent's central defender all rushed together to fight for the header.

Japan's goalkeeper Eiji Kawashima was moving towards the back post, guarding against a direct header from China.

A few heads surged in the crowd, but Zhang Linpeng, who quickly jumped in from the back, grabbed the first point. He hit the ball and ferried it to the middle of the penalty area!

All the fans held their breath, looking at the chaotic restricted area. The fans of the Chinese team are nervous and looking forward, while the fans of the Japanese team are worried.

"China's chance, Zhang Linpeng headed back, inside the penalty area—" Duan Xuan almost narrowed his eyes and stared at the field below, prolonging his voice.

Zhang Linpeng's ball landed near the 12 yard point, and there was chaos in the penalty area of ​​the Japanese team. Eiji Kawashima attacked immediately after Zhang Linpeng's header was ferried, trying to control the ball.

In the penalty area, two figures, one red and one blue, rushed towards the ball at the same time. It was Xia Ze and Shinji Kagawa.

Xia Ze's body is stronger than Shinji Kagawa's. Even though he is being pestered by his opponent, Xia Ze still rushes to the ball keenly, and Eiji Kawashima arrives almost at the same time! c
