Chapter 712 There is not much time left for the Chinese team

Although Erikson chose to counterattack defensively, this does not mean that England is just huddling in the backcourt and not attacking. On the contrary, because England's overall strength is stronger than the Chinese team, they still take the initiative on the court.

In the 80th minute of the game, England initiated an attack from the wing and passed to the front of the goal. Rooney, who came on as a substitute, headed the ball before Li Weifeng.

Li Leilei stood very well, and did not move his steps anymore, but directly took the football that Rooney pushed into his arms.

If it was hit other times, Li Leilei would definitely lie on the ground to delay time, but this time he did this because it was the Chinese team who needed to seize the time to attack. Li Leilei took advantage of the situation and rushed forward, bypassed Rooney and Crouch, two English strikers, and threw the ball directly to launch a counterattack.

Li Leilei threw the football to Hao Junmin. Hao Junmin had observed the situation nearby before receiving the ball. He knew that there was a gap behind him that could be used. So he directly pushed the football back to Zhao Xuri with his head. After the ball was pushed, he immediately turned around and ran to the gap behind him.

Under the influence of Lingxi Card, Zhao Xuri was also very conscious of Lingxi, but did not stop the ball, but directly passed the football to the front of his running position, allowing Lennon to come up and save.

Han Peng first retreated and ran towards Hao Junmin, as if he wanted to pick him up. But after driving Beckham, he suddenly turned around and ran back, and Beckham had to be pulled back.

So there was a space in front of Hao Junmin, with no one interfering in an area of ​​about six or seven meters.

Hao Junmin did not continue to drive the ball forward. After Beckham was taken away by Han Peng, he kicked the ball directly behind the center circle and kicked the ball to the front right.

This is a long cross-floor run of more than 30 meters!

Huang Jianqiang shouted excitedly: "Hao Junmin's long diagonal pass...beautiful-!"

……………………

The football rolled rapidly on the turf, and the castration was not diminished, and it rushed straight behind the England defense line. There, Dong Fengzhuo accelerated from the ribs and chased the football!

England's left-back Ashley Cole was also struggling to catch up, but he was slow to react just now. He didn't expect that the Chinese midfielder could make such a decisive and accurate long pass, which led to him being left behind by Dong Junzhuo.

Fortunately, there is also central defender John Terry on the back, who is stuck in the inside line in the back, and does not allow Dong Junzhuo to go to the middle, but drives him to the bottom line.

Dong Fengzhuo made a decisive cross from the bottom, Han Peng pressed from the side to the middle, and Li Jinyu ran away again to take Ferdinand away.

This ball was neither for Yin Jun and Han Peng nor for Li Jinyu, but for Yin Jun who was inserted from the middle lane!

Yin Jun kept volleying directly, slightly higher than the crossbar.

Huang Jianqiang said with some disappointment: "Oh——! Yin Jun didn't seize this opportunity, it's a pity!"

He Wei continued: "But the Chinese team's offensive has started. Even if England and they play defensive counterattacks, we can also fight their counterattacks! This time, we take advantage of their counterattack opportunities to attack. Hao Junmin sent out a wonderful long pass in time and directly penetrated the English defense line! During this period, our offensive has started again!"

……………………

After being beaten by the Chinese team in a row, England completely recovered in the second half.

Anyway, there are only a few minutes left in the game, and they still have one goal ahead. As long as they can defend for these few minutes, they can advance to the quarterfinals one round ahead of schedule.

England gave up the midfield and retreated to the 30-meter area, while the Chinese team pushed up and started a positional battle. At the same time, they had to be careful of being counterattacked by the opponent. Rooney and Lennon in the frontcourt both had speed.

In addition to Beckham, who passes accurately, England's counterattack is extremely threatening, so the two midfielders, Hao Junmin and Zhao Xuri, cannot press on at the same time.

The game was like this when the Chinese team was pressing against the attack, and England retreated from defense at all, and the injury time came.

Seeing the fourth official's 4-minute stoppage time sign, He Wei said with some concern: "Faced with England's iron barrel formation, it is difficult for the Chinese team to break through their defense and get a good opportunity."

Huang Jianqiang nodded in agreement and said, "Breaking the iron barrel formation is a global problem. The Chinese team must work hard, because there is really not much time left for the Chinese team!"

……………………

The Chinese players on the court also know that there is not much time left for themselves to pursue goals. They must seize the time to attack, otherwise they will lose the game.

When the Chinese team attacked again, Zhao Xuri shouted to Hao Junmin: "It's okay, you should go as soon as you should go, I will definitely protect you!"

Hao Junmin nodded, he knew that under such circumstances, some dangers must be taken!

The football had been passed by his teammates. Rooney came up and blocked Hao Junmin, but he did not take the initiative to press the ball, but just stood a few meters ahead of Hao Junmin, so that he had no room to drive the ball forward.

England, which is in the lead, can adopt this seemingly negative defensive strategy in defense, allowing the Chinese team to control the ball in the midfield, and they will stand in their own defensive position.

As long as their position is not chaotic, it doesn't matter how the Chinese team passes the game. If they fall one lap and two laps, the Chinese team may not find the gap near the penalty area, and the game time passes by this meaningless backlash.

In the end, the time left for the Chinese team will be less and less, and their mentality will be more and more anxious.

By then, it will be the opportunity for England to fight back.

……………………

Hao Junmin looked up at the front and looked for the pass point.

Because it was a positional battle, most of the players on both sides stood their positions to death. Hao Junmin could clearly see England's back line and forward line next to each other, and each person was only three or four meters apart, just like two rows of teeth were tightly meshed together, almost covering the horizontal space in front of the penalty area, with no space at all.

If they and their teammates pass the football sideways, the opponent's defense line will not change at all. They will transfer the football sideways as a whole, because there are enough people, so it is difficult to pull out space for this kind of horizontal movement.

In the past, when facing such intensive defense in the Silver Du team, he would choose to pass the football back, and then run back himself, pulling out the opponent's forward and forward line, and then suddenly hit the opponent's space.

But he had tried this move before, and the England team was completely indifferent and allowed the Chinese team to pass it back. Even if it kept passing it back to goalkeeper Li Leilei, they still couldn't come out in their own half.

This was obviously decided to hold on until the end, so he couldn't pass it back.

Since we cannot transfer horizontally or pass back, there is only one way left, that is, move forward!
Chapter completed!
