"Paraguay put huge offensive pressure on the Chinese team. In the first half, Paraguay had 6 shots, while the Chinese team only had 2. Our counterattack could not achieve the desired effect. Many times, the Qin team was fighting alone, and he not only had to face the opponent's foul tactics, but also had to be alert to the opponent's foul tactics to avoid injury. We are aware that this would be a fierce battle, but we did not expect it would be so difficult."
In the 32nd minute of the game, Paraguay once again created a threat.
Benitez cut in from the wing and received Bella's pass. He cooperated with Santa Cruz and then cut into the penalty area.
After the football rolled in front of him, Yang Zhi abandoned the goal and blocked his shooting angle. Benitez made a move and shot and then drove the ball back. After shook Yang Zhi away, he chose to push the ball to the far corner in order to avoid Li Weifeng.
Seeing that the football was about to roll into the Chinese team's goal, at a critical moment, Sun Xiang would go to the sideline to tackle.
The Chinese fans in the stands of the Lovtos Stadium immediately applauded Sun Xiang for his beautiful work!
Two minutes later, Qin Xiong got the ball on the side of the midfield, and he dribbled forward without fast speed.
Han Peng was completely ineffective in this game, and the opponents paid attention to the performance of the Chinese team in the past three group matches. He focused on cutting off the connection between Han Peng and Qin Xiong in defense. This approach has achieved results, making Qin Xiong able to rely on himself to attack the opponent's defense.
When Qin Xiong just passed halftime, Bella came to press, and Qin Xiong's rhythm suddenly changed, and he instantly accelerated his speed and then threw away Bella. However, after Bonnet and Otigsa came to siege at the same time, Qin Xiong was unable to beat four-handed with two fists.
Qin Xiong fully utilized his technical ability as much as possible. When Otigsa stole the foot, he knocked the ball to his left foot, and then slashed the ball behind Otigsa with his left foot. The movement was coherent and in one go, and the person inserted forward diagonally at the same time. But Bonnet came up and pulled Qin Xiong's arm with his hand, and pulled it away as soon as he pulled it, so that Qin Xiong's explosion acceleration was suppressed, and then Bonnet intercepted the ball again.
Qin Xiong stopped and complained to the referee. The referee was not blind. He saw Bonnet's actions and then blew the whistle. He awarded a free kick to the Chinese team.
Paraguay won the team's chance to rearrange the defense through foul tactics.
"Paraguay once again curbed Qin Xiong's performance through fouls. This is obviously a tactic that the opponent had arranged before the game. It is hard to say what is wrong with doing this, but as people who support the Chinese team, of course we don't want to see our opponents play in this way."
If it were completely skilled, Qin Xiong might have the chance to complete a direct performance. Unfortunately, no team on the football field would be so stupid that he would not foul the foul even though he knew he could not defend himself.
In the 38th minute of the first half, Paraguay's long shot from the outside, and Santa Cruz's long shot hit Liu Yi with a refraction change.
The direction the football refracted was exactly where Barrios was.
Due to Santa Cruz's long shot, the defensive players' attention was slightly distracted.
Barrios stopped the ball in front of the penalty area and swayed the ball away from Li Weifeng. He shot from the penalty area line!
The football flew straight to the lower right corner of the goal, and Yang Zhi made an amazing save this time.
He saved horizontally with one hand to block the ball from the bottom line!
The Chinese players were relieved and the scene was very thrilling. It is naturally good to be able to escape danger.
Paraguay's corner kick offensive also threatened. Morel headed the ball in the middle of the penalty area slightly above the crossbar and shocked the Chinese fans and players in a cold sweat.
Paraguay players were very upset and angry about being unable to score!
I always feel that I'm not lucky!
Before the end of the first half, Qin Xiong moved horizontally to the middle. He received an oblique pass from Sun Jihai on the side, and then picked the ball forward and broke through Bella's defense line.
Bella chased from behind and Qin Xiong was knocked to the ground by Otigesa when he first stepped into the forty yards away from the goal.
This time, the referee not only signaled that Otigsa would commit a foul, but also took out a yellow card to warn him.
Qin Xiong was very helpless. He no longer knew how many times he had been fouled by his opponent, let alone the opponent's small movements when pressing close to each other.
As the first half was about to end, Qin Xiong turned around and gestured to his teammates.
It's time to come up and play a set piece attack.
The players from the midfield and backcourt rushed forward and flocked into the Paraguay team's penalty area.
Paraguay was even more nervous, not to see that the Chinese team did not play a decent offensive in the first half. The number of people attacked each time was not large.
But so many people suddenly came to this set-piece offense, who dares to say that the Chinese team will not play an offensive offense?
Qin Xiong stood in front of the football. Looking at the crowded penalty area, he hung the ball into the penalty area, and then saw Li Weifeng pulling onions in the dry land in the penalty area and jumping high and heading to attack!
This may be the most threatening offensive since the start of the Chinese team's game!
Li Weifeng's header hit the crossbar and bounced out!
Chinese fans were extremely disappointed in the stands. Many people gritted their teeth and stomped their feet, hoping to remove the beam!
The football that bounced out was directly volleyed and kicked away by Huang Bowen.
"The Chinese team missed an excellent opportunity to score a goal, and the big head Li Weifeng almost broke the goal of Paraguay!
What a pity! It's a pity!"
Paraguay's escape from death once, which prevented them from launching threatening offensives for more than a minute before the end of the first half. Perhaps they also needed to calm down and calm down.
The first half ended.
The Chinese team and Paraguay temporarily tied 0:0.
Looking at the 45th minute of the first half, the game showed that Paraguay attacked, Paraguay fouled, Chinese team defended, and Chinese team wanted to fight back but was fouled.
After entering the locker room, Alihan applauded all the team members.
He wanted to praise the team's performance, and then said: "I'm glad we didn't concede the goal in the first half, which gave us the basis to win the game in the second half. The gap between the opponent and us is obvious. Paraguay is very strong and they have an advantage on the field, but we are not without opportunities. According to our plan, the second half will be more difficult, but I hope everyone will keep their attention and must not relax!"
The players of the team agreed collectively, and then Alihan began to fine-tune the tactics of the second half.
In terms of macro strategy, the Chinese team has not yet deviated, at least in terms of scores and situations, both of which are expected.
It's not a pity that I failed to score.
Just like the opponent has not scored, the Chinese team should not be glad.
Chapter completed!
