After the game started, the US team played very actively and attacked very quickly, as if they wanted to eat the Chinese team alive.

Although the Chinese team adopted the defensive counterattack tactics in the game against the United States, the Chinese team did not play conservatively. The Chinese players understand that if they play against the United States, they will definitely not forgive them for playing too cowardly on the court.

The Chinese team also did a serious study on the American team. They knew that their opponents were physically good and had a fast pace. They were worried that they would be dragged down by the American team. Therefore, during the game, they tried to suppress the rhythm of the game so that the American team would not bring the rhythm up. In addition, the Chinese team rarely fought in the American team's halftime. Once the American team players dribbled the ball to their own half, the Chinese team immediately launched a fierce press, and after stealing, they immediately passed a long pass to Han Peng, who was in the front, and launched a counterattack as fast as possible.

The Chinese team's counterattack success rate is low, but the speed is fast, which can maximize the physical fitness of American team players.

After the training of the qualifiers and group stages, the Chinese players now also feel like they are completely transformed. Faced with the storm-like attack of the US team, they play very calmly, without any rush or impatience. They should be stuck in positions, double-teams, and fouls, which seems very well-organized. The US team attacks so hard that the Chinese team did not give the US team a chance to shoot within ten minutes.

The US team is physically strong and responds quickly, and the Chinese team's counterattack does not pose any threat.

Ten minutes later, the United States finally had a chance to shoot.

This was a long shot by Dempsey, but the shot was 30 meters away. Dempsey obviously wanted to try whether his feet were smooth.

Chinese goalkeeper Zeng Lei was very focused. He easily hugged the ball and drove his big foot towards the frontcourt.

Han Peng's height and heading ability are pretty good. He forced the American defender to clear the ball in the competition, and the ball fell to Zheng Hua's feet.

Zheng Hua handled the ball a little slower, and the ball was immediately intercepted by the US team and launched an attack on the spot.

The US team's attack started from the midfield. It was a bit sudden. The Chinese team's defender was not prepared and was crossed by Donovan from the left to the bottom line.

Donovan's cross was very dangerous, with at least three American players entering the penalty area at high speed to grab the top.

Facing the players who were rushing, it was difficult for the defender to defend. Du Wei, Wang Xiao, **** desperately got the position, but the US team's strong Fendeli grabbed the landing point. However, Fendeli's heading ability was average, and he was so good that he headed to the sky.

In the 16th minute, the Chinese team finally got a chance to shoot. Zheng Hua passed Han Peng for a long pass, and Han Peng headed the ball and passed it to Shao Gang who quickly followed. Shao Gang passed it to Chen Yu and quickly stepped forward.

Chen Yu did not waste this counterattack opportunity. Others scored the ball over the American full-back Clark and dribbled the ball to the bottom line. Chen Yu glanced at the penalty area and kicked a low ball to find Zheng Hua who was inserted in the back row.

Zheng Hua did not have a defensive player around him, but he ran a little faster. After passing a little, he could only tilt his head back.

A header with a backward test is a test of his level. Zheng Hua's header was not a strong point. It was a good opportunity. Zheng Hua pushed it softly and had a very straight angle, so he was easily hugged by American goalkeeper Howard.

After 30 minutes of the game, the fast-paced offense and defense of the United States did not pose any threat to the Chinese team's goal. The United States changed the pace of the game, played a little slower, and often shot far, trying to attract Chinese team players.

However, the Chinese team's players have strong tactical discipline and do not have the chance to resolutely not leave the hole. Once the steal is made, they will immediately launch a fast attack, which will make the American team very troubled.

The head coach of the US team on the sidelines was frowning. He was very happy to meet the Chinese team, this soft persimmon, and thought he could make it to the quarterfinals again. He didn't expect that the Chinese team would be so difficult, with a solid defense and a regular counterattack. Although there were not many counterattacks, Bradley knew very well that success could be fatal if he succeeded once.

However, the US team is stronger than the Chinese team, and Bradley is unwilling to play a penalty kick with the Chinese team.

Thirty minutes later, Bradley decisively asked the US team to strengthen its offense and strive to break through the Chinese team's goal in the first half. Facing a team that focuses on defensive counterattack, as long as the goal is scored, the opponent will collapse.

Bradley thought that taking a risky attack would lead to breaking the Chinese team's goal, but he was wrong. The Chinese team could break out of the siege from Germany, Serbia and Ghana, and the defense must be strong. The American team does not have the heading ability of the German team, nor the long-range shooting ability of the German team. If you want to break through the intensive defense of the Chinese team, you must have a lot of luck.

However, the US team was not lucky. In the 35th minute of the game, the US team broke through on the wing and passed to the top of the penalty area. The US team's central defender Demerit stepped in to grab the spot. The Chinese team was not prepared for him. Demerit's header was fiercely pushed to the back corner of the goal. At this moment, goalkeeper Zeng Lei turned to the front corner. Demerit's attack was very tricky, but the centre-back full-back Sun Hai made timely to the penalty area and pushed Demerit's header out.

In the 40th minute, the US team had another good chance. Donovan's long shot hit the Chinese defender's leg and refracted, but the ball hit the post and bounced out, which made American fans regret for a long time.

The Chinese team did not have any chance at all. Just when the US team was at its most fierce attack, the Chinese team also got the best chance to counterattack.

In the 38th minute of the game, Chen Yu gave Shao Gang a straight pass. Shao Gang had already left two American defenders behind, but the lineman raised the flag to signal Shao Gang to offside. The subsequent slow motion showed that at the moment Chen Badminton passed the ball, Shao Gang was half a shoulder behind the two American defenders.

In the 42nd minute, Chen Yu took the ball to the 30-meter area of ​​the US team and suddenly took a long shot. Chen Yu's long shot angle was very clever, and American goalkeeper Howard also tried his best to stab the ball out of the baseline.

In the first half, the US team focused on offense and the Chinese team focused on defense. The United States took the initiative in the scene, but in creating threats, the two sides were similar, and the number of shots was similar. The scores in the half were also equal.

After the halftime break, the US head coach Bradley was very dissatisfied with the striker's scoring ability. He replaced the forward Findelli and replaced another forward Feuerbach.

Although a replacement is like a knife, if it is a dull knife, it will not be able to hurt people. Feuerbach came up without any effect. He was still very active at the beginning and soon fell into the heavy siege of the Chinese team and lost himself.

After ten minutes in the second half, Bradley made another substitution, replacing Clark with the former genius boy Adu and continuing to strengthen the offensive.

At this time, the Chinese team also saw that the US team's forward line lacked a scorer, just like a knife without a blade. It looked very shaky, but it could not kill anyone, and gradually strengthened its offensive.

The Chinese team defended for 55 minutes, and at this time, it finally started to rise and the game became more beautiful. The Chinese fans and American fans in the stands were excited, and there was constant applause in the stands, and Chinese fans also started to wave Mexicans from time to time.

After the Chinese team attacked, the US team's midfield created more shooting opportunities, but the US team's forward's ability to seize opportunities is indeed unsatisfactory. They waste the good opportunities created by the US team one by one.

Obviously, the purpose of the Chinese team's attack was not to concede the ball, and their risky purpose was of course to score goals. When they gave the Americans a lot of shooting opportunities, the Chinese team also got a lot of shooting opportunities.

In the 70th minute of the game, the Chinese team made short passes in the 30-meter area of ​​the US team. Although it did not pass into the US team's penalty area, this kind of scene was rare in this game. Neutral fans in the stands couldn't help but applaud the Chinese team.

The Chinese team's continuous passes did not tear the US team's defensive formation, and in the end, Han Peng had to pass the ball back to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu saw that he had already reached the hinterland of the US team. Although there were many players in front and almost all the lines were not blocked, it was not a good opportunity to shoot, Chen Yu still shot to see if he could encounter a refraction opportunity. Maybe his character exploded. After the shot, Chen Yu even YYed it.

What Chen Yu didn't expect was that he thought the line had been blocked, but when he was shooting, American players came to block it, and some players were running, and they actually dodged a passage for him. The ball flew straight to the lower left corner of the goal along the passage.

The shot was about twenty-six or seven meters away from the goal, and the strength was not particularly large, and the angle was not particularly tricky. However, when Chen Yu shot, the US goalkeeper Howard was blocked from his sight. He made a mistake in judging the line of the shot, but he was unable to save the ball. The ball flew into the net from his palm.

1:0

The Chinese team took the lead.

Even Chen Yu himself was surprised by this goal. He really had a character outbreak? Chen Yu was stunned for a moment before he remembered to celebrate.

Team USA head coach Bradley was so angry that the ball actually went in! What is Howard doing for? He yelled at Howard's direction, wishing he could be replaced.

The Chinese team coaches were very happy. The lead at this point in time is too high. The probability of advancing to the quarterfinals is too great. This is a huge honor. Whether it is head coach Forador or assistant coach Yin Shengtie, they will be very famous. Even the team leader Guo Zuojin will do a good job at the General Administration of Sports.

Obviously it is not time to laugh. After a simple celebration, the Chinese team coaches quickly discussed how to save the fruits of victory in the last twenty minutes.

The Chinese team played a defensive counterattack, but because the US team led the pace very quickly, the Chinese team's players consumed a lot of physical fitness. After discussing with the coaching staff, Forardo decided to make a substitution adjustment and sent two new forces to the field to rush.
