"The Russian team made a cross from the wing!" He Feng's commentary voice was a bit sharp, sounding like an air defense siren.

 And the Chinese fans in front of the TV heard that this is indeed the case.

Every time the Russian team plays a high ball, the hearts of all the Chinese team fans are lifted.

This is really because Russian center Ivan Romanov’s aerial control ability is too terrifying.

  It is simply a veritable “air lord”!

The same is true this time. As the football flies towards the penalty area of ​​the Chinese team, Ivan Romanov leaps high in front of the goal, preparing to header!

 Jumping up with him is also the Chinese team’s center back Wang Guangwei!

 He did not jump on the spot, but made a slight acceleration and sprinted towards Romanov.

 This can increase the height of his jump and the power of fighting in the air.

 Then he collided with Romanov.

 He failed to head the ball.

Although Romanov hit the ball, Wang Guangwei’s collision pushed the ball higher...

 “Oh! What a risk!!”

 Watching the football fly out of the baseline under the watch of goalkeeper Lin Zhiyuan, He Feng let out a sigh of relief.

 The Chinese fans in front of the TV also breathed a sigh of relief.

Whether it is height or strength, Wang Guangwei is at a complete disadvantage. So every time when he and Romanov compete for the top, everyone sweats.

 Fortunately, so far, despite the dangers, Romanov has not been able to score.

This is because the Chinese team does not rely on Wang Guangwei alone to defend Romanov. They adopt an overall defensive strategy, starting from restricting Russian passes in the Chinese team's backcourt to combining multiple sets of defensive tactics in front of the goal.

.

Twenty minutes into the first half, the score is still 0:0.

Wang Guangwei got up from the ground. After fighting for the top with Romanov, he still lost his balance and fell to the ground, gasping for air.

 The game had only started twenty minutes, and he felt almost tired after playing half a game in the last game.

  This is caused by both physical and mental fatigue.

Every time he competes with Romanov, he has to try his best. When he confronts Romanov, he has to bear not only the surging power of the opponent, but also the huge psychological pressure. He must not lose the ball first! Absolutely not! Because

Shi's guidance in this game is to hope that we will score first. If we concede the goal first, all our pre-game arrangements will be turned into a basket case... all in vain!

 How could Wang Guangwei not be tired when competing under such circumstances?

 But he had no other choice but to grit his teeth and hold on.

 And expect the teammates in the frontcourt to score goals as soon as possible...

Romanov put down his hands holding his head, and just finished his regrets about not scoring a goal, when he saw Wang Guangwei, who was breathing heavily.

 He grinned and said in Russian: "Well done, boy."

Wang Guangwei couldn't understand what the other party said, but he stared at him without showing any weakness.

When Romanov saw this, he smiled slightly, turned around and ran away.

Although Wang Guangwei couldn't understand the other person's words, he could feel the other person's sense of superiority in his expression and tone.

 Yes, it is a sense of superiority.

 How an apex predator feels when looking at prey lower down the food chain.

Wang Guangwei's face was solemn, and he cast his gaze forward, past Romanov's back, all the way to Hu Lai's body.

  ※※※

 “Hulai!”

 The TV announcer He Feng’s roar sounded.

 “Hu Lai!!” The fans roared in front of the TV.

 In the broadcast, Hulay kicked the football towards the goal ahead of Russian center back Pletnev!

 The ball bypassed Pletnev, but was blocked by Kuzmin, another Russian center back behind him, who extended his leg to block the bottom line...

“Ah!!” Just by listening to the sound, Chinese fans could seem to see He Feng holding his head in his hands in the commentary box, looking up to the sky and sighing.

"What a pity! Zhang Qinghuan passed the ball at the perfect time! Hu Lai's running position is also very good, and his kicking is decisive, but Russia's defense against him is really strict... Two people guarding him at the same time is equivalent to giving Hu Lai a chance.

Two locks!" Yan Kang analyzed to the audience in front of the TV.

"Since scoring twice in the first game and having a super world wave, Hulay has become one of the most popular players in the first round of the World Cup... Any opponent will keep a close eye on him when they encounter him.

I believe that both Hu Lai and Director Shi should be fully mentally prepared..."

"I think Hu Lai can actually be used as an offensive bait to attract Russia's defensive attention, open up the defense, and create gaps. Other teammates will follow up in time..." Yan Kang said a little cautiously here.

 Because it is indeed a bit strange to let Hu Lai, who scored two goals, make wedding clothes for his teammates.

  After all, the only person in the Chinese team who can score goals and has the strongest scoring ability is Hu Lai. Leave such a person unused, let him play support, and then let other players be responsible for scoring goals... Is this idea a bit putting the cart before the horse?

There must be fans who think so and criticize Yan Kang's suggestion.

Shi Wuyin did not make such arrangements before the game. When facing reporters, he still said that Hu Lai would be the main attacker of the Chinese team in this game.

 Obviously Shi Wuyin also felt that letting Hu Lai serve as bait seemed to be a waste of martial arts.

 Various signs since the start of the game indicate that the Chinese team chose Hu Lai as the terminator instead of anyone else when attacking. This shows that Shi Wuyin did not lie and deliberately set off smoke bombs.

 “Come on, son!” Xie Lan waved his arms on the sofa.

As a mother, her simplest thought is that her son can score goals in two consecutive games and help the Chinese team defeat Russia. She doesn't care about the things her husband and coach Li analyzed before the game.

 After the game started, Xie Lan was particularly happy to see that his son was in good condition.

Li Ziqiang and Hu Lixin looked at each other in confusion.

 This is something they never expected before the game.

 While having dinner, the two of them drank a few glasses of wine, and the coach's occupational disease became apparent. He started talking about how the Chinese team should arrange their troops and what tactics they should arrange for this game.

The two of them quickly reached a consensus on this, that is, Hu Lai will be closely guarded by the opponent. If the Chinese team insists on letting Hu Lai complete the attack, then as long as Russia can guard Hu Lai, it will be equivalent to guarding the Chinese team.

attack.

 This is obviously not a good result.

If Shi Wuyin is bold enough, then he should let Hu Lai feint to attract the attention of the Russian defense and then create opportunities for his teammates.

 This is the only effective offensive tactic they can come up with for the Chinese team.

 As a result, the first half lasted for twenty minutes, and the Chinese team’s offense basically focused on Hu Lai.

Even if the ball is given to Luo Kai and Chen Xingyi, they will find a way to pass it from the side to the center to Hu Lai.

Although Hulay was in good form today, he had already had two shots that threatened the Russian goal, forcing their goalkeeper Yan Altin to make a wonderful save.

 But there should still be some changes.

 Otherwise, do you really expect Hu Lai to hit the mountain with his small body?

  ※※※

Shi Wuyin stood on the sidelines watching this scene, with no expression on his face.

 He recalled the training before this game. After he formulated the tactic of using Hu Lai as a bait, Hu Lai made a suggestion publicly.

He thought that if he simply used himself as a bait and then asked Zhang Qinghuan to pass the football to Luo Kai or Chen Xingyi, this tactic would be too simple and not very useful. So he wanted to add some spice to this tactic.

  Simply put, it is to let yourself be the main attacker at the beginning, threaten the Russian goal as much as possible, and let them have no doubt that they are the main attacker.

Then at the most critical moment, pass the football to others and let them complete the fatal blow. To put it bluntly, this is the success rate.

After all, it is estimated that the whole world will now think that Hu Lai is the main attacker. If the Chinese team does not need him as the main attacker, who else can they use? Who else has the ability to threaten Russia's goal?

 Hu Lai suggested taking advantage of the opponent's psychological blind spots to trick them.

 Shi Wuyin and the coaching staff briefly studied it and finally agreed to Hu Lai’s suggestion.

 After all, those who are tasked with feinting attacks often have to do enough tricks so that the enemy can be fooled.

 So it was decided that after the game started, everything would be business as usual. Unless others had a particularly good opportunity, they would still try to pass the football to Hu Lai.

 Create a business-as-usual atmosphere.

 So far, this is indeed the case. Russia's defense against Hulay was very strict, and it took two people to block Hulay's shot in the penalty area.

Although Russia's overall defensive formation remains intact, Shi Wuyin believes that if the game continues like this, the Chinese team will indeed have a chance.

And in order to make this plan more realistic, Hulay showed his arrogant and domineering side when being interviewed by reporters, publicly declaring that he would continue to score goals against Russia.

At that time Shi Wuyuan felt speechless when he saw this scene.

This time, it was the same as the last time we played against the Korean team and held back long shots without using them...

How much bad water is in Hu Lai’s belly?
To be continued...
