host must win

Chapter 533

Seeing that the team conceded the ball, Mexico coach Ricardo Lavolpe patted the seat angrily.

"Yin Jun is so strong, it's almost impossible to guard against..." the assistant coach said beside him.

La Volpe nodded. Yin Jun, as the youngest player in the history of the world and the double winner of the European Golden Globe Award, is undoubtedly the number one star of the Chinese team and the absolute core of attack. His threat is beyond doubt. The defense is very important.

However, it is difficult for you to completely restrain a superstar like Yin Jun. Too many teams have used failure as proof before.

Just like just now, Mexico has double-teamed Yin Jun, but Yin Jun still found a chance to kick and score.

However, Lavolpe also has to admit that Yin Jun's goal is very beautiful. He dribbled the ball from the side, smashed the ball inside, and shot in one go. The quality of the shot is also very high.

Facing the personal performance of this kind of superstar, the defender will often be very helpless, because there is no way to defend.

Fortunately, the overall strength of the Chinese team is average, and the team's performance depends more on the personal performance of Yin Jun, a superstar.Mexico's overall strength is stronger than that of the Chinese team. As long as they play steadily, there is always a chance to equalize or even overtake.

………………

Mexico deserves to be the sixth-ranked team in FIFA. They have experienced too many big scenes and are experienced in any situation. Although they fell behind 0:1, the Mexican players did not show panic. After the start, the conceded goal stimulated the team to launch a more violent attack on the Chinese team's goal, completely suppressing the Chinese team in its own half.

"Mexico's offensive is too strong." De Jong said with some concern.

Alihan didn't speak, he stared at the field, the opponent's performance after conceding the ball really surprised him, is this the strength and confidence of a world-class team?
Mexico's attacking efforts paid off 38 minutes into the first half.

Mexico's veteran midfielder Pardo dribbled the ball and was pulled to the ground by Xiao Zhanbo, and the Mexican team won a free kick in the frontcourt.

The Mexican midfielder Zinha, who is only 1.6 meters tall, flew a free kick into the penalty area, and the Chinese goalkeeper Li Leilei chose to attack.He tried to hit the football, but Li Leilei made a mistake in judging where the football landed. He barely touched the football, but the football did not fly out of the penalty area, which caused chaos in the penalty area of ​​the Chinese team. During the battle, Xinia, who got in from the back, volleyed vigorously from the instep of his right foot near the penalty area line to the upper right corner.

1:1, Mexico equalized the score.

"GOOOOOOLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!"

"Zenia! This little guy equalized the score for Mexico! 1:1! Before the end of the first half, Mexico's offense finally paid off!" The Mexican commentator shouted.

"There was a problem with the Chinese team's defense. When the ball was cleared out of the penalty area, no one defended Xenia immediately, which gave the Mexican midfielder a chance to play calmly." Huang Qiangqiang shook his head.

"Goalkeeper Li Leilei has to bear greater responsibility for this goal loss. His attack was a bit reckless." He Wei interjected.

Alihan was furious on the sidelines, and he shouted loudly at the court.Alihan is not unprepared for conceding the ball, but conceding the ball due to his own mistakes and confusion made him a little upset.

And losing the ball at this time point is really hurting morale.

………………

"Cunning guy." Alihan glanced at the coach bench of the visiting team and said through gritted teeth.

In the process of conceding the ball, Mexico's two defensive midfielders firmly locked the Chinese players to defend Xenia's route, thus giving Xenia a chance to take a calm shot.Obviously, Mexican coach Lavolpe also has a targeted deployment of the Chinese team's defense.

In addition, goalkeeper Li Leilei also made a mistake in this defense.

Li Leilei's ability can only be said to be average. Compared with Liu Yunfei, the main goalkeeper of the Chinese team before, it is somewhat inferior, but because Liu Yunfei's recent state is really bad, Alihan chose to let Li Leilei start, but also out of desperation last resort choice.

With such a goalkeeper, you can't expect him to have any top saves and amazing performances, it can only be said to be quite satisfactory.

Alihan previously felt that Li Leilei was still qualified as the No. [-] goalkeeper. Now it seems that in critical games, under the continuous pressure from the opponent, some of Li Leilei's shortcomings will be exposed, such as attacking. The choice of timing.

In addition, in terms of goal line technology, Li Leilei is not the kind of explosive goalkeeper. If the Chinese team wants to achieve better results, the position of goalkeeper really needs a better and more reliable player.

However, after Alihan inspected the goalkeepers of various teams in the Chinese Super League, he found that there was no particularly good choice, so he could only use Li Leilei for the time being.

………………

Alihan walked to the sidelines, and he called out the name of the team captain Yin Jun. Seeing Yin Jun looking over, Alihan made a gesture of pressing down: Defend!

Yin Jun is also experienced now. He knows that what the team needs to do most at this time is not to counterattack to equalize the score immediately, but to hold the ball first and not continue to lose the ball.Because the Chinese team is not Manchester United, not so strong.

The morale of Mexico, which regained the score, was greatly boosted. Instead, they took the initiative on the court at the end of the first half. Fortunately, Alihan reacted quickly, and an order was issued early on. The Chinese team retreated across the board and held on. Mexico's offensive in the final stages.In the end, at the end of the first half, the Chinese team and Mexico temporarily reached a 1:1 tie.

The head coach of Mexico, Lavolpe, is a little depressed. His team's morale is up. He has a hunch that if the team is given a little more time, they are likely to knock on the goal of the Chinese team again. At this time, the intermission came It's really not the time.

Alihan felt fortunate that the team was relatively passive at the last moment, and the intermission came at the right time, which gave his team a chance to breathe.

Instead of getting angry at half-time, Alihan praised the performance of the players, even though they allowed their opponents to score an equalizer late in the first half.

"Good job, continue to play like this in the second half!" Arihan said.

Overall, the Chinese team did play well in the first half of the game, basically fulfilling his tactical requirements, and cannot deny the performance and tactics of the first half of the game just because of a single mistake.

At this time, what the team needs is encouragement and encouragement. Alihan has confidence in his players and believes that after the intermission, the team will not let him down in the second half of the game.

　After watching Manchester United's first round match, I was really disappointed...
