Seven Crowns

Chapter 697 Stopped in the top 4

? At 13:00 on July 4, the first quarter-finals of France VS Germany officially kicked off at the Maracanã Stadium.

With Hummels’ goal in the 13th minute, Germany defeated France 1-0 to advance to the semifinals.

At 17 o’clock in the afternoon, it was the turn of the second quarter-finals of the Chinese team VS Colombia. The venue was Fortaleza’s Castello Stadium. The winner will face Germany in the semi-finals.

Because Zeng Cheng was shown a red card in the previous game, he was automatically suspended for one game. Wu Sihuo was the starting goalkeeper in this game.

Most of the stands are Chinese fans. Many Brazilian fans who thought that Brazil would advance, bought tickets for this game in advance, and finally sold the tickets to the Chinese who made no difference.

Castello Stadium has become the home stadium of the Chinese team.

Colombia is currently ranked 8th in the world, and it is strong.

However, the Chinese team has eliminated the host and the football kingdom Brazil, and has a lot of confidence in the mentality, which is very different from the group stage.

In the 4th minute of the game, Lu Wenbin passed the ball to Yu Hai. Yu Hai dribbled the ball on the wing and stepped on a bipedal bike and passed the Colombian player defending him. This caused applause from the Chinese fans in the stands.

Yu Hai’s performance at this time fully reflects his different mentality.

The trembling mentality in the group stage cannot be said to have completely disappeared, but in the face of Colombia, an opponent whose deterrence is much lower than that of Brazil and Spain, at least dare to make fake moves.

After finishing the pass, he took a few steps before dribbling the ball on the beach road, then cut in, and prepared to smash the ball outside the penalty area to intercept his midfielder Sanchez, and scored into the penalty area to shoot.

Yu Hai’s smash passed Sanchez, but Sanchez may be a little bit irritated, and he turned his hand and pulled him to the ground from behind.

It was equal to the fact that Sanchez woke up like a dream after falling to the ground, raising his hands to indicate to the referee that Yu Hai was not the one who pulled him down.

But this action is too obvious, it’s not that Sanchez said he didn’t foul if he didn’t foul.

Although the referee did not show a yellow card, he gave the Chinese team a free kick that was left on the front of the big penalty area and was only about 25 meters from the goal.

At this distance and position, Lu Wenbin’s free kick threat is too great.

And now, the game has just started 4 minutes.

Although Sanchez tried his best to defend, the referee’s penalty was unchangeable.

Lu Wenbin stood behind the ball with a smile and waited for the referee to signal that he could take a free throw, and then an arc kicked the ball into the near goal.

In the 4th minute of the opening game, the Chinese team made a free kick and Lu Wenbin directly scored a free kick to lead Colombia 1-0.

This accidental goal conceded Colombia directly confused.

Want to attack on a large scale, but also afraid of Lu Wenbin’s counterattack. Want to fight steadily, but can’t break the defense line of the Chinese team led by Lu Wenbin.

As a result, before the end of the first half, in the 44th minute, the Chinese team caught another opportunity. Lu Wenbin picked a pass to the restricted area, Hao Junmin cut in from the side, and an irregular volley shot swept the ball in. goal.

With one pass and one shot from Lu Wenbin, the Chinese team leads Colombia 2-0.

After 15 minutes of intermission, the two sides changed sides to fight again.

In the second half, Colombia was about to attack, but the Chinese team changed.

Zheng Zhi replaced Wu Sihuo, Lu Wenbin changed to the goalkeeper, and Zheng Zhi played Lu Wenbin’s midfielder.

The Chinese team’s defense is even more unbreakable.

Although there was no threat of Lu Wenbin’s counterattack, Colombia aggressively suppressed the offensive, with many more threatening shots, but Lu Wenbin threw them all out.

It wasn’t until the 88th minute that Columbia made a lucky shot, hitting Feng Xiaoting’s body, causing a line change, evading Lu Wenbin’s save, and regaining one point.

But before that, Lu Wenbin had scored the third goal of the Chinese team through a free kick created by Wu Lei in the 72nd minute.

In the end, relying on Lu Wenbin’s two shots and one pass, the Chinese team defeated Colombia 3-1, won the quarter-finals of the match, and advanced to the semi-finals.

This has tied the Korean team’s best record in an Asian team in the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan.

The point is that the Chinese team did not rely on referees, but instead eliminated the host Brazil team.

This is much tougher than the South Korean team.

Not only China, but many Asian countries have also reported a lot. Reporting as a breakthrough in Asian football is a double scene than when everyone was ashamed of mentioning South Korea’s results in 2002.

Next, Argentina defeated Belgium 1-0 and the Netherlands beat Costa Rica on a penalty kick. The four finalists of the 2014 Brazil World Cup came into being. They were Germany, China, Argentina, and the Netherlands.

The Chinese team has become the biggest dark horse in this World Cup.

However, the dark horse road of the Chinese team also ends here.

The remaining three teams, no matter which one, are not the current Chinese team can resist.

Especially the opponent Germany in the semifinals even won the championship in the end.

On July 8, the first semi-final of China VS Germany took the lead.

After 90 minutes, the score on the big screen was 5-2, with Germany ahead and China behind.

The German team had a hearty 5-2 victory over China. Had it not been for the Chinese team to have Lu Wenbin sitting in the back and scored two counter-attack goals, I am afraid the Chinese team would have to lose more.

The German team reached the final of this World Cup and is ready to attack their fourth World Cup champion.

On July 9, the second semi-final ended. Argentina defeated the Netherlands in a penalty shootout and advanced to the final. Maradona’s successor Messi led Argentina to their third World Cup champion.

On July 12, the three or four finals, the Chinese team once again encountered the Netherlands after the group stage.

The Dutch team lost a 1-3 in the group stage, but at that time Lu Wenbin’s killer as a goalkeeper had not yet used it.

The three or four finals of the Chinese team changed their tactics, let Lu Wenbin play the starting goalkeeper, want to rely on defense to get a third place.

But contrary to expectations, the Dutch team’s offensive power is indeed too strong, the Chinese team was suppressed to almost no fight back, and did not give Lu Wenbin a free kick opportunity.

The Dutch team is constantly using shooting to challenge the nerves of the Chinese.

Although Lu Wenbin fought left and right to block many of the Dutch team’s must-have goals, there was still a time to miss The first time after Lu Wenbin broke Robben’s wing in the 74th minute. The shot was saved, but the saved ball did not go out of the baseline, but hit the post and bounced back into the penalty area.

Then, Van Persie appeared on the spot, stabbed the ball into the goal.

In order to beat Robben’s long shot, Lu Wenbin fell to the ground and didn’t get up. He couldn’t do anything about this supplementary shot.

After all, the Chinese team failed to create a miracle. They were defeated 1-0 by the Dutch team and stopped in the semi-finals. They only won the fourth place in the Brazil World Cup.

This game proved that when Lu Wenbin was a goalkeeper, he lost the threat of counterattacking his opponent and could only be passively beaten. The opponent could attack the Chinese team unscrupulously and with all his strength, and then he could defeat the Chinese team with a balloon.

Lu Wenbin is still suitable for playing midfielder, the goalkeeper can only occasionally play a cameo in an emergency or penalty shootout.

But even so, it is an unprecedented highlight of Chinese football, which makes fans across the country feel extremely happy and gratified.
