The England fans were still laughing at the fact that the Dutch team's attack was not a threat. The Dutch team's next attack made them break out in a cold sweat.

Robben receives a pass from Kevin Dirk.

The football knocked back and forth between Robben's left and right feet, confusing opponents.Then he suddenly took the football to the baseline.Both Upson and Ashley Cole thought Robben was about to cross.So also ran along.At this moment, Robben's right foot dragged behind gently pushed the football between the two, and then he accelerated from the bottom line and bypassed Upson and Ashley Cole who were still in a daze .

"Beautiful breakthrough!" The Dutch commentator shouted excitedly.

Robben, who broke into the penalty area, immediately caused chaos in England's defense line. Terry hurriedly ran to make up for it. Now, England's central defense was empty.Gareth Barry and Lampard also quickly retreated to the penalty area to participate in the defense. The entire England penalty area was suddenly messed up by Robben.

************
Robben glanced at the current situation in front of the goal, pretended to pass the ball to Van Persie, and after the tricked Terry fell to the ground for a tackle, he pulled the ball back, followed by a rubbing shot.

James bravely threw the ball, and the ball bounced to the goal. Van Persie had already raised his hands to cheer for the goal just now. He thought that Robben's ball was approaching, but he didn't expect James to save the ball. This made Van Persie a little bit Insufficient preparation, the consequence of insufficient preparation is that he hastily raised his foot in the face of an empty goal, and then the football hit his knee. After bouncing, it hit the crossbar and flew out of the baseline.

The Dutch fans in the stands thought that the goal must have been scored, but when they saw that there was no goal, they hugged their heads and sighed in disbelief, and Van Persie himself regretted it very much. He covered his face with his hands and knelt down in front of the goal, feeling so annoyed in his heart .

************
This game was also considered to be the most open and best-looking game of this World Cup after the game.The Dutch team was originally a team with sharp goals, and the England team, under the leadership of Li Rui, also showed their offensive ability.

"Terry! He steals the ball, England's counterattack... Beckham passes the ball... the football has reached Li Rui's feet, which means that there will be thousands of possibilities in the future, possible passing, possible shooting , may score!" Lineker made no secret of his liking for Li Rui. Now, Li Rui is the well-deserved No.1 in the hearts of England fans, even surpassing captain Beckham.

After seeing Li Rui receiving the ball, the players of the Dutch team immediately became nervous. Li Rui's terror no longer needs to be described in words. Although Sneijder also said before the game that the tired Li Rui's threat would be greatly reduced, but, No one dares to be careless.

Van Bommel immediately came up to intercept Li Rui. The Dutch veteran's defense was old-fashioned. His defense was very sophisticated. He grabbed Li Rui's shoulders and stepped forward.Put your body against Li Rui.Don't let Li Rui turn around easily.Then he kept kicking forward with his feet behind, trying to break the ball.

However, Van Bommel miscalculated this time. Li Rui flicked and pulled the ball, and knocked the ball beautifully with his heel to Lampard who came up to meet him. He ran forward and received a pass from Lampard again. .

Hitting the wall!
************
Then, facing Boulahrouz who was defending him, Li Rui's upper body suddenly swayed. Boulahrouz thought he was going to break through, so he quickly leaned his body back, ready to intercept.

Unexpectedly, Li Rui was just a feint. After a feint, he lightly pushed the side, and Ashley Cole got the ball.

Borahrouz, who was being teased by Li Rui, didn't even have time to resent, he quickly turned around and rushed to Ashley Cole who got the ball, and when Li Rui saw that Ashley Cole had successfully received the ball, he started to attack Dash in front of the door.Ready to grab the header.

"Be careful of Ashley Cole's cross!" The Dutch commentator shouted nervously. In the England team's tactics, Ashley Cole's cross from the side after he stepped in was a frequently used cross. routine.

After seeing Boulahrouz pounce on Ashley Cole, Heitinga in the penalty area of ​​the Dutch team also hurried up to stare at Li Rui. Just now Li Rui was able to complete the shot under the defense of him and van der Vaart. Letting Heitinga know how powerful Li Rui is, he was very nervous.

************
Ashley Cole didn't make a cross immediately. When Boulahrouz came up to intercept, he suddenly passed the ball and accelerated along the sideline. Leigh Cole burst in.

Ashley Cole's breakthrough won him cheers from the stands.

Then, when Mattison was attracted to come out to intercept, Ashley Cole pretended to cut inside, but suddenly stopped suddenly and knocked the ball behind him.

Beckham came up to get the ball, he immediately raised his right foot and rubbed the ball up.

cross!

In the penalty area of ​​the Dutch team, Heitinga turned to look for Li Rui after seeing Beckham's pass, but he found that Li Rui had left his side in the blink of an eye.

"Li Rui!!" Lineker shouted excitedly.

Of course Li Rui knew that Heitinga was the Dutch team's defender who was responsible for marking him, so he took advantage of the tense Heitinga to observe Beckham's pass, he turned around suddenly, and jumped to the other side. It's where the ball landed!
************
Beckham's football is not the front point of the pass, but has an arc, flying to the back point.And it's a slight outward rotation.

Beckham and Li Rui have a good understanding. He also knows Li Rui's strength and how Li Rui will get rid of the defense, so after taking this factor into consideration and passing a behind the ball, he seems to know where Li Rui will run.

As soon as Li Rui ran to the spot where the ball landed, the ball came. His body took half a step back, and his whole body was like a bow and arrow about to be fired. When he jumped up, he shook his head to attack the goal. The power and angle of the ball, it's actually a header.

While everyone exclaimed, the football flew slightly above the crossbar and out of the bottom line!
************
Van Marwijk couldn't sit still anymore. He got up on the sidelines and yelled at Heitinga. He was very dissatisfied with the Dutch team's defense against Li Rui. Letting such a threatening shooter get consecutive shooting opportunities is simply courting death. .

Heitinga stretched out his arms angrily, and put them down weakly. He had tried his best, but he still felt that it was really difficult to defend Li Rui. This was the first time that Heitinga met Li Rui in a game. The Dutch player The guard had only heard how good Li Rui was before, and he didn't have any intuitive feeling, but at this moment he really realized how powerful the world's number one star is.

The overall performance of the two goalkeepers and the defense line was fairly stable, and there were not many mistakes that could be exploited.Especially the goalkeeper, both James and Stekelenburg performed well and are very stable.

In fact, although the Dutch team disdains England before the game, the Dutch team is actually very afraid of England's offense. This can be seen when Sneijder and van der Vaart often return to their own penalty area.

After all, the England team has Li Rui, the most powerful striker in the world, and Beckham, who seems to be in good condition even though he is old, with Beckham's deadly pass and Li Rui's terrifying attack power , is enough to make the Dutch team jealous.

"Don't give him a shot from long range," Terry shouted from the penalty area.
Lampard immediately came up to intercept, at this moment, Sneijder passed the ball.

At the moment of Sneijder's cross, England's defense immediately pressed forward as a whole. In this game, England adopted the offside tactic.
This time, Van Persie was immediately offside.Just when the England team thought that the offside was successful and the Dutch team's attack was terminated, Van der Vaart suddenly burst out from the crowd, rushed to the goal, and then plugged in!He accelerated while running, jumped high, judged the ball's landing point very well, and rushed to the top!

It's a bouncing ball, the football hits the ground and bounces off towards the goal!
There is nothing James can do about such a rebound, his symbolic slam is of no avail and the ball flies into the net.
