I am the Coach of the National Youth Team - Chapter 489
c489 second half
75 minutes passed unknowingly, and the two sides still drew 0-0.
In fact, in this game, Li Long really didn’t want to be dragged into a penalty shootout.
Although there is an element of luck in the penalty shootout, if it is only from the perspective of strength on paper.
Hou Xiaopeng is indeed worse than Courtois, even though Hou Xiaopeng is in good condition today.
Even saved a penalty before, but Li Long didn’t want to take the risk.
In fact, it is not only Li Long, but also the head coach of the Belgian team, Roberto Martinez.
The current situation on the court made him very worried.
Today’s Hou Xiaopeng is too strong, so he has to worry.
So he also hopes that the game can end in regular time.
So the Belgian team made a substitution, replacing the young midfielder Thielemans.
Then Hazard Jr. was replaced, and the tactical formation also changed accordingly.
From the previous 3-4-2-1 formation, it became a 3-5-2 formation.
I hope that the combination of Hazard and Lukaku can strengthen the Belgian team’s offensive ability.
Li Long saw that the Belgian team had changed, but he didn’t react.
The current lineup of the team still makes Li Long very satisfied.
Li Long couldn’t think of what substitutions needed to be made for a moment.
The game continued, and the Belgian team made a substitution, and then launched an attack.
After Zhang Ran got the football, he wanted to pass the football forward.
Go to Qin Lunhao who is also on the right, but there is a little distance between them.
The football was intercepted by Hazard, and Hazard dribbled forward.
But how could it be possible for Zhang Ran to be passed by Hazard so easily.
And the ball was his mistake, so he posted it towards Hazard.
Seeing this, Hazard chose to cross and passed the football to Carrasco who came over.
Instead of stopping the ball, Carrasco moved towards the rolling football.
He kicked it up again, stuffing the football forward.
The two played a one-two match, although the distance between Hazard and Zhang Ran was widened.
But Zhang Ran was not thrown away, he still chased Hazard with all his strength.
Soon Hazard took the ball to the left side of the penalty area, and Zhang Ran was already in place.
But Hazard was very calm, I saw his right foot pointing towards the football.
The football unexpectedly slipped under Zhang Ran’s crotch, and the football rolled towards the top of the arc outside the penalty area.
At this time, little Hazard ran towards the football. This was the cooperation between Hazard’s brothers.
I saw little Hazard pushing the football with his right foot towards the rolling football.
He directly chose a long shot, but this long shot is still difficult.
And Hazard Jr. has just played, and his feet are not very hot.
The football flew directly to the auditorium and fired an anti-aircraft gun directly.
“The Belgian team’s attack this time is still very smooth.” He Wei explained.
“Azar’s personal ability is really strong, and this pass is very imaginative.”
“The football passed from Zhang Ran’s crotch. Fortunately, his brother Hazard missed the goal with his kick.”
“It’s very rare for the Hazard brothers to be present at the same time.” Xu Yang continued to explain.
“But they didn’t play the cooperation that brothers should have.”
Little Hazard couldn’t see any expression on his face when he saw his shot fly.
He ran back directly, looking very calm.
On the sidelines, Li Long saw the Belgian team’s attack.
I was still very worried in my heart. After the second half, the Huaxia team launched a wave of offense.
But the Belgian team was still strong, and quickly overwhelmed the Huaxia team’s offense.
If this continues, the Huaxia team will be in danger.
So Li Long finally made a substitution, but it was not an offensive substitution.
The left back Shi Yang was replaced, and Qiu Hailong was replaced by Qiu Hailong.
Qiu Hailong is four years older than Shi Yang, although the gap is not very big.
But after all, he has played in Europe for several years, so he may have more game experience than Shi Yang.
Moreover, Qiu Hailong can perform very well on the offensive end.
His crossing ability has been much praised in the current situation.
Changing to Qiu Hailong, maybe there will be unexpected gains.
Although Qiu Hailong’s potential and strength are a little worse than Shi Yang’s.
But Qiu Hailong is still very trustworthy.
At this time, 80 minutes have passed, and both sides are ready for overtime.
The same is true for the fans of both sides, guessing that this game will most likely go to overtime.
However, the players on both sides did not give up and continued to fight with all their might.
The Belgian team once again launched an attack, and through continuous passing, they pressed the half of the Huaxia team.
Immediately afterwards, the football was passed to Lukaku, who withdrew from the penalty area.
Facing the passing football, Lukaku blocked Lin Tianjun behind him with his back.
Although Lin Tianjun’s physical fitness is very good, Lukaku is also very strong.
Lukaku blocked the position very well, and Lukaku can turn around after getting the ball.
But soon Chinese players surrounded him, and Lukaku knew he had to pass the ball.
Otherwise, the football would definitely be intercepted by the Huaxia team, so he had no choice but to pass it back.
Passed to midfielder De Bruyne, and after receiving the football, De Bruyne took a step forward.
He actually chose to hit the goal directly. It was a low shot.
But the speed of the ball was very fast, and the football flew to the lower right corner of the goal.
Goalkeeper Hou Xiaopeng fell to the ground in an instant to make a save. I have to say that Hou Xiaopeng is in very good condition today.
This time he touched the football again, and the football hit the post directly.
Then flew out of the bottom line, and the Belgian team wasted another opportunity.
Li Long on the sidelines not only wiped off his cold sweat when he saw the football hit the post.
This ball is much more threatening than last time.
In the past, the Huaxia team was often the center post, but they didn’t expect that it would be their opponent’s turn today.
“Wow! De Bruyne’s shot hit the post.” He Wei explained after escaping.
“Recently, the Belgian team’s offense has been really fierce.”
Not only the commentator, but all the fans are also very worried.
“Hey! Why did you give the Belgian team a corner kick?”
“Did Hou Xiaopeng encounter football before?” Xu Yang guessed.
Afterwards, everything on the screen began to play the previous defense.
It can be seen from the back defense that Hou Xiaopeng barely touched the football with his fingertips after he fell to the ground.
Football then refracted, and it is precisely because of this refraction.
Only then did the football hit the post, otherwise the ball would have been scored.
“Sure enough, Hou Xiaopeng has come across football. Today’s Hou Xiaopeng is really amazing.” He Wei praised Hou Xiaopeng.
“This time Hou Xiaopeng once again saved the Huaxia team.”
De Bruyne saw the ball hit the post, although he felt very sorry.
But he still signaled to the referee that the ball was a corner kick.
