Almighty Athlete Chapter 46: Door God

The strength of the national team to play in the World Cup is clearly understood by Zhang Guan. WW "W. ΩLieWen. CC

There are only thirty-two teams that can participate in the World Cup. If they are really ranked in strength, no team in Asia can enter the World Cup. Fortunately, the World Cup selection system will take care of all continents, so only countries in Asia and Africa can enter the World Cup finals.

For Asian countries, even if they enter the World Cup, they often go home after three games in the group stage. Rarely can they enter the knockout stage, which is still the top Asian strong team. The strength of the Chinese team in Asia can only be regarded as the midstream, to be honest, it does not have the level to play the World Cup.

Although today's Chinese team luckily scored in the World Cup, it is impossible to go further in the World Cup. Judging from the grouping situation, the Chinese team may have a chance to defeat Nigeria, but it is basically impossible to defeat the old European football team such as Poland, let alone the top Brazil team in the world.

With the strength of the Brazilian team, it is normal to play a 4-0 or 5-0 against the Chinese team. If the Brazilian team takes it seriously, it will play a 1o-0 against China. . And even if Zhang Guan plays the striker no matter how powerful, he can achieve a hat trick on the Brazilian team's head, which is considered to be the limit. If calculated in this way, the score of 1o to 3, China is still a disastrous defeat.

Moreover, on the stage of the World Cup, there are more teams of the same level as Brazil. Even if other teams are not as sharp as Brazil, they are far stronger than the Chinese team. The two or three goals that Zhang Guan desperately scored, People can pull it back in minutes.

Zhang Guan appears in the forward position, it can easily crush the Asian team’s back line, but it can really face the world’s top teams. Zhang Guan scores alone, far less than the Chinese team’s back line. .

In football, every position is important, but the position that best determines the outcome of the game is undoubtedly the goalkeeper.

When playing a striker, although it is easiest to score a goal, there is a premise that the opponent needs to pass the ball to himself, even if it is Messi, no one passes the ball to him, it is also in vain. In the Asian arena, Zhang Guan can also receive the pass of his teammates, but on the stage of the World Cup, Zhang Guan can not guarantee this, maybe the Chinese team will not even have many opportunities to get the ball.

But the goalkeeper is different. The goalkeeper does not need teammates to cope with it. The goalkeeper does not need to be integrated into the tactical cooperation. A god’s goalkeeper can also affect the whole game. In the final analysis, the winning or losing of the football game is to see more goals, even if the strength is crushed, but in the end, the advantage cannot be converted into a goal, but it is just to useless work, and the goalkeeper is the one who can turn all advantages into useless work. people.

Don’t lose the ball in the World Cup, this is what Zhang Guan has set for himself. This goal is not a fantasy. Kahn, Buffon, Casillas and other top world goalkeepers have all played in the World Cup without conceding the ball.

The news that Zhang Guan changed to kicking the goalkeeper is still under confidentiality. It was not until the National Football team announced the list before the World Cup, that the name of Zhang Guan appeared in the position of the goalkeeper.

"Really? Zhang Guan has kicked the goalkeeper!" The news caused another stir in China.

In fact, many goalkeepers come from forwards. Forward players are often tall, strong, explosive, fast, and responsive, which is the same as the goalkeeper's requirements, and the striker is the best position to score a goal. If you change the goalkeeper, it means that you know yourself and know each other.

However, as the sharpest knife in the national team’s attack, Zhang Guan has to change the goalkeeper, but many people can’t understand it. Everyone was still talking about how many goals Zhang Guan can score in the World Cup, and this news came out, Then it was all miserable.

"Zhang Guan has become a goalkeeper, originally thought that our Chinese team can break the World Cup goal shortage, it seems that there is no play again!"

......

On June 17, 2o18, group e ushered in a round of competition. At the Rostov-on-Don Stadium, the Chinese team faced the world’s most powerful Brazilian team!

Brazil's internal atmosphere is very relaxed. Facing the Chinese team, they don't even make any tactical preparations. The head coach of the Brazilian team also did not make tactical arrangements. He felt that in the face of an Asian team, there was no need to arrange any tactics, allowing players to swing freely.

In the player channel, Neymar looked at the Chinese team players standing in a row next to him. Except for Zhang Guan, he didn't know any one, but Paulinho was chatting with several Chinese team players.

"Zhang Guan is a goalkeeper. There was news that he was a striker, how did he become a goalkeeper?" Neymar pouted indifferently, Neymar felt that no matter who the opponent's goalkeeper was, he was able to score the ball .

"Try to score three or four goals in the first half, and you can probably be replaced in the second half for a break. Check in early and go to the nightclub to see if there are beautiful Russian chicks!" Neymar thought silently.

Russia is closer to China, so a lot of Chinese spectators came to the scene. They have already gathered together and waved the national flag, turning half of the auditorium into a red ocean.

There are not many viewers from Brazil. After all, Brazil is still far from Russia. However, after all, Brazil is a star-studded crowd. Many Russian local audiences know the Brazilian star. They have become fans of the Brazil team and cheered for the Brazilian team. However, after all, they are not the teams of their own country. The momentum of the Russian audience is obviously not as good. Chinese audience.

Of the 11 players of the Chinese team, none of them is a serious striker, but a forward midfielder. His position is also relatively backward. As for the other players, they have shrunk in their own half. After the Chinese team kicked off, they also kept passing in their own half and had no intention of attacking.

"The Chinese team didn't plan to attack at all. They wanted to defend in the end! It's ridiculous. Do you think that if you only attack and not defend, you can even us? Let you know immediately that we have a thousand ways to score goals! "Neymar snorted and led the team to press on the whole line."

In this kind of scene, the Brazilian team really sees too much. In over 90% of the countries in the world, when they meet the Brazilian team, they hope to be able to smooth the game. Only a few countries dare to challenge Brazilian football. Even those enthusiastic South American countries will become a tortoise when they encounter Brazil, instead of going crazy.

At this stage of the group stage, no one intends to take all three points on the Brazilian team, and can score 1 point. This has become the best result in the face of the Brazilian team. It is the most normal choice to defend.

For the Brazilian team, breaking the opponent's shrinking defense is like a routine.

I saw that the Brazilian team players were very skillful and began to press heavily, putting pressure on the Chinese team’s conduction ball. There is indeed a gap in the strength of the players on both sides. It didn’t take long for the Chinese team’s pass to be cut off by the Brazilian team. .

As soon as Brazil got the ball, it was a big-footed pass. Neymar went straight and clearly didn’t look at the Chinese defensive players. However, the Chinese team's defensive system was beyond Neymar's expectations. The two defenders rushed up at the same time, and they forced the Neymar to pass errors one after another.

Manager Lippi is a coach who very much pursues the overall operation of the team, and is also a coach that pays more attention to defense. It can be called a defensive master coach. The team he instructed tended to be tough on defense. Although the defense is sometimes ugly, the effect is really good.

The Brazilian team basically did not arrange tactical details today. When they arrived on the court, they basically relied on the tacit understanding and swing of the Brazilian players themselves. In terms of personal strength, Brazilian players faced Chinese players. Even in the absence of detailed tactics, relying solely on the star's personal abilities, the Chinese team, which is still suppressed, can't stand up.

Everyone in the Chinese team retreated to their own half to defend, relying on the advantage of more people, and with some fouls, the Brazilian team's attack was curbed in a short time.

This is also related to the Brazilian team playing more casually. For the Brazilian team, it's not a big deal to personally show a little indulgence and lose a few chances after getting the ball. Anyway, scoring is just a matter of time. For example, Neymar, now I am very happy to play, all kinds of kung fu play, Chinese players playing around.

However, the Brazilian team did not score a goal. The Chinese team tried to compress the defensive space as much as possible, so as to prevent the Brazilian team from having the opportunity to shoot. The Brazilian team tried two or three shots. Zhang Guan was rotten.

After 2 minutes of the game, the body of the Brazilian players gradually warmed up and gradually entered the state. The overall offensive playing was smoother and the personal skills were more perfect. In the 23rd minute, Fernandinho knocked horizontally and Augusto volleyed across the beam at a distance of 24 meters in front of the door, which is a complete prelude to the Brazilian team's attack.

"Neymar, right pass! Paulinho shoots! Zhang Guan entrusted!" CCTV's commentator breathed out. The goal just now was really dangerous. Paulinho was facing the goal at the front of the penalty area. In the middle of the sky, Fei shot, the ball was very fast, and very sudden.

However, Brazil’s offensive did not end there. Augusto controlled the ball and lifted a shot from the left foot near the bottom line to hit the sideline. This ended the Brazilian team’s attack. If you look at it from afar, this goal even seems to be a goal.

Three minutes later, the Brazilian team’s attack came again. Neymar made a low pass from the left and Philippe Coutinho dribbled vigorously into the upper right corner 17 meters from the door.

"Danger!"

At the same time that the narrator shouted in horror, Zhang Guan had moved. He jumped up and grabbed basketball with both hands.

In the 3o minute, Paulinho made a long shot and was caught by Zhang Guan.

In the 32nd minute, the Neymar free kick hit the wall.

In the 38th minute, Neymar received a pass from Philippe Coutinho, cut into the penalty area on the right and changed the line to deceive the Chinese team player. The ball was pushed at a small angle 8 meters in front of the goal. The ball will fly along the goal post The goal was blocked by Zhang Guan just right.

Before the end of the game, Marquinhos made a long-range straight ball, Neymar rushed into the left side of the penalty area 9 meters away from the gate, and then hurriedly kicked the ball to the bottom right corner of the goal. Zhang Guan flew to save again. Turn danger into danger.

"This can all be stopped!" Neymar looks a little annoyed. He repeatedly attacked the goal directly, and it was a very good opportunity, but was repeatedly blocked by Zhang Guan. The response of Zhang Guan and the explosive power of the body are far from Neymar. Unexpectedly, Neymar feels that the goal just now has a certain degree and an angle. Even the top goalkeepers in the four major leagues in Europe can't stop it, but Zhang Guan can hold the ball steadily.

"It's too fast to throw the ball, the explosive force of the leg is very strong, it is worthy of being the world champion of sprint." Neymar secretly said.

The Brazil team’s last attack in the first half was resolved by the Chinese team with a yellow card. The Brazil team could only take the o-o score and returned to the lounge unwillingly.

Statistically, the Brazilian team is absolutely occupied, with a 7o% possession rate and 2o shots. The average is one shot in just over two minutes. The Chinese team didn't even have a half, not to mention the number of shots. At the same time, only in the first half, the Chinese team got two yellow cards.

However, the score of o to o means that the two yellow cards are worth it. It is very rare for the Chinese team to know that the opponent is the Brazil team who can insist on not losing points at halftime.

Of course, the main reason is the existence of Zhang Guan. Brazil’s several excellent offenses were all resolved by the successful rescue of Zhang Guan. If you change a goalkeeper, it is now at least o behind 3.

......

At the beginning of the second half, the Brazilian team immediately launched a fierce attack. Paulinho forcibly broke through the two Chinese defensive players, vigorously pushed on the right side of the goal, and was saved by Zhang Guan. Brazil kicked the corner directly to the goal and was also caught off by Zhang Guan.

At this time, the Brazilian team has now shown that the corner kick directly passed to the Chinese team's goal. It was a very wrong decision, because every time the ball will be scored by Zhang Guan.

The corner kicks in front of the goal. At most, other players rely on headers to fight for the top. However, Zhang Guan as a goalkeeper can use his hands. Zhang Guan has also obtained 2o+ rebounds in a single game in nBa. To be strong, but also able to use his hands, the Brazilian team's players are considered to be dozens of centimeters of broom head, but also can not grab Zhang Guan.

Next, the Brazilian team made several threatening offenses, but they were all resolved by Zhang Guan.

"What's the matter, it's been 7o minutes, and it hasn't broken the goal of the Chinese team!" The head coach of the Brazilian team stood up angrily, and he began to substitute!

The Brazilian players on the court suddenly looked a little ugly. They could see that this substitution was a tactical adjustment forced by the head coach. Obviously, they were dissatisfied with the inability to break through the Chinese team’s goal.

As the core of the Brazilian team, Neymar felt the pressure. He knew that he could not continue to play so casually, otherwise he might be tied, and the Brazilian team needs to show some real skills.

"Damn, I didn't expect this Chinese team to be so difficult! No, it should be said that Zhang Guan is so difficult!" Neymar's face was gloomy, but his heart was quite calm.

Two minutes later, Neymar inserted the ball on the left and passed the ball directly to the opposite point when approaching the bottom line. The Chinese team thought that the ball would come out, so the action was a half shot slow, but Augusto suddenly rushed In the past, after a shoveling pass from the bottom line, the ball fell right in front of the goal. Paulinho's signing advantage appeared at the point where the ball landed.

"Pretty cooperation! It's like flowing clouds!"

"This is the real Brazil team, and the teamwork is so exciting!"

Even Chinese fans have to admit that Brazil’s match this time was very beautiful and definitely the world’s top match.

In the face of Zhang Guan, Augusto did not continue to drive the ball forward, but chose to directly hit the goal. The direction he chose was the dead corner in the upper left of the goal.

"It's over!" Many fans of the Chinese team closed their eyes, and they dared not go to see this scene.

"Give me in!" Augusto shouted, and he exhausted all his strength in the ball.

"Oh!" A clear voice sounded, and I saw that Zhang Guan was already flying in the sky, and it was shot on the football. The football changed its angle, concentrated the goal post, and then bounced out of the bottom line.

"What! Was thrown!" Augusto looked at Zhang Guan with some disbelief.

"It's Zhang Guan again! It's a corner kick again!" The head coach of the Brazilian team suddenly became somber.

The Brazilian team did not directly pass the corner kick this time, but chose a small range of transmission around the corner to seek a chance to break the goal. The Chinese team compresses the defensive space very tightly, without giving Brazil any chance.

At the 8th minute, the Chinese team received the first red card and was sent off. Without a player to defend, the situation instantly becomes very unfavorable for the Chinese team, which can be said to be precarious.

However, the Chinese team also knows that the game has reached the final moment, and now it only needs to persist for ten minutes, so everyone is desperate. Even if the technical level is not enough, they will use their bodies to block the progress of the Brazilian team.

The Brazil team is also really anxious. The game has been played for 8o minutes. The Chinese team has not even played at half time. It has always been pressed by the Brazilian team, but Brazil is difficult to break through the Chinese team fans. This is the stage of the World Cup. If it is tied by the Chinese team, the Brazil team will really lose the adults.

The Brazilian team started to get crazy. The stormy offensive attacked the Chinese team.

In 87 minutes, the Chinese team got a second red card. The two sides turned into 9 players and 11 players.

The referee showed the sign of injury stoppage time, and the injury stoppage time was 3 minutes.

"Hold on for the last 3 minutes!" Chinese players gritted their teeth and ran on the court.

At this time, Neymar made a fake move and turned around, got rid of the Chinese team player, rushed into the penalty area, the Chinese player lifted his foot and broke the ball, slightly touched Neymar, although it did not affect the Neymar body Balanced, but the monkey-like Neymar fell to the ground.

"Penalty! My goodness! 9o minutes, the last moment of the game, penalty! Brazil is going to kill the Chinese team!"

At this moment, the players of the Chinese team all covered their faces with annoyance, and some people even started to cry. They did not expect to stick to the whole game, but they had to lose the game at the last moment.

The Brazilian team took a breath. The penalty kick at this time undoubtedly saved the Brazilian team's life.

Neymar set the ball, he glanced at the opposite goal, and started to kick after a few strides.

"Neymar, fake action!"

The first kick of Neymar was just a fake move, while the opposite Zhang Guan had already seen the intention of Neymar, his body shook slightly, and then stabilized instantly.

The next moment, Neymar really kicked, the football hit the bottom left of the goal.

At the same time, Zhang Guan flew to the bottom left of the goal.

"Not good! He guessed it!" Neymar was shocked when he saw the direction of Zhang Guan's movement.

The Zhang Guan is a ball in hand.

"It's here, Zhang Guan has got a penalty!" The Chinese audience in the audience made a thunderous cry, and on the bench of the Chinese team, many players wept with joy.

The players on the field are going to hug Zhang Guan, but Zhang Guan waved to them: "Hold on, the game is not over yet!"

The game is not over yet, and there are the last two minutes.

93 minutes, the Brazilian team can’t wait for the ball, and according to the time left now, they can stop the last attack.

At this time, the Brazilian team is still pushing forward. Even the goalkeeper Alisson has abandoned his goal and ran to the Chinese team’s half to participate in the team’s attack. Being able to have one more person is also an advantage.

Run, pass. The Brazilian team is working hard to do everything they can.

"Neymar, chance! Shot!"

Neymar grabbed the last shot that he tried hard, but he immediately showed that the angle of his own shot was too right.

"The angle is too correct. The angles that were so tricky before were all blocked by Zhang Guan, and this ball is certainly sad for Five Finger Mountain of Zhang Guan!"

The situation is as expected by Neymar, the angle of this ball is indeed too correct, and is directly held in the arms by Zhang Guan. Immediately afterwards, Zhang Guan didn't hesitate at all, as if he was in a hurry, he made a big foot and drove the ball to the backcourt of the Brazilian team.

"The game is about to end, the Chinese team evenly tied Brazil!" Everyone knows that Brazil's last attack was stopped by Zhang Guan, which also represents the end of the game.

The referee swelled his cheeks. He was ready to sound the whistle at the end of the game. Before blowing the whistle, he subconsciously looked down at his watch.

"There are 5 seconds left until the injury stoppage time ends. But what can 5 seconds do? The Brazilian team keeps the ball under control for more than 5 seconds. The overall situation is already! Really thought it would be a draw." The referee Raised his head, ready to whistle.

However, in the next second, he realized that the football flying in the sky was really high and fast. The angle of the flight was also in the center of the court.

"Wait a minute, this ball..." The referee didn't blow his whistle, but his eyes widened in surprise.

On the Brazilian team, the first goalkeeper Alisson responded.

"Oops!" Alisson yelled out, and ran towards her goal with the breast milk quickly. However, how can the human level be comparable to the degree of ball flight!

"The goal is empty!"

"Look, football, fly towards the goal!"

The audience was full of bursts of exclamation, and the TV broadcast lens was precisely aimed at the football in the air.

Land on the ground is the frontier of the restricted area.

The ball bounces, then falls, bounces gently, immediately falls, and then immediately starts to roll forward, directly in front of the ball is the goal.

If there is a goalkeeper at this time, it only takes a few steps to pick up the football.

But now, in front of the ball is an empty goal! The Brazil goalkeeper is not in front of the goal, he has just participated in the Brazilian team's last attack!

Behind, the Brazilian players chased wildly, but the football still rolled forward without hurry.

Neymar runs crazy, he feels that he has never been so fast, but he cannot catch up with the football.

The next second, the football rolled into the goal.

The goal is scored!

Alisson knelt on the ground. Because of inertia, his body slid forward a lot. He kept his head in pain and covered his face with his hands. I couldn’t believe this scene.

The other players of the Brazilian team even showed a sky-turning expression. Eleven played nine. The opponent was the Chinese team. The Brazilian team did not win. Not only did they not win, they even lost a goal and lost the game.

"Enter? Really?" Manager Lippi kept repeating the question, and he couldn't believe it.

"Got a goal? Is this a goal? Is it really a goal? Are we leading? Are we going to win?" The CCTV commentator suddenly shorted his mind, and he still felt he was In dreaming, I pinched my tiger mouth involuntarily.

The next second, the broadcaster played subtitles~IndoMTL.com~ than o, the Chinese team took the lead.

At this moment, the narrator is awake like a dream.

"Go! Goal! We scored! Zhang Guan! He scored! This is not a big kick, it is a shot! This is a shot! He scored a goal, the Chinese team in the World Cup Goals."

......

"Oh my god, what do I see? Goalkeeper's goal! The goalkeeper kicks the ball into the opponent's penalty area in his own penalty area, and then scores a goal! How could this happen!"

After marveling at the scene, the Russian audience couldn’t help but applaud and cheer for Zhang Guan. The goalkeeper kicked the ball and scored directly. This is not unborn in football, but the audience on the scene I never thought that I would witness this miraculous scene with my own eyes.

Finally, the referee blew the whistle of the match.

"The lore, the Brazilian team has been lore, and it has been the lore of the Chinese team. The lore is still a goalkeeper! Zhang Guan, even if he is in the goalkeeper position, Still brings us miracles!"
