Chapter 349 If you want to win, you must first strengthen yourself.

"It's over, it's over, it's really over now!"

When the game played for about 10 minutes, all the fans who were watching the game all over the country became worried and scared.

During the first period of the game, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Chinese team had serious psychological pressure problems.At the beginning, the Uzbekistan team was afraid of the Chinese team's series of victories against Iran and South Korea. They were very uncertain at the Chinese team's home court.

After discovering that the Chinese team did not seem to be as strong as they thought, the Uzbekistan team immediately boosted their morale.With morale, the mentality is different, and the whole person is let go.

"Come on, Chinese team! Chinese team will win!"

"World Cup, World Cup!"

Under the cheering and cheering of the fans on the scene, the Chinese team became more and more heavy.Any slogan full of expectations has turned into an unbearable pressure for the Chinese team.

The Chinese team played very nervously, wanting to win but afraid of losing.After the momentum of the Uzbekistan team rose, the situation of the Chinese team on the field became more passive.Not only did he no longer have the aura of not being afraid of powerful enemies, but he made frequent mistakes.

If there are too many mistakes, more opportunities will be given to the opponent, which will bring greater threats and pressure to one's own side.The more this is the case, the more nervous it is for one side.It became an inevitable reality that the Chinese team was suppressed by the Uzbekistan team.

"Bang!" Uzbekistan's low shot missed the goal.

"The Chinese team escaped a catastrophe. But the danger is still there." Liu Jianhong, who is serving as a commentator, said worriedly.

"Bang!" It was another shot from the Uzbekistan team, a little higher than the crossbar.

"The danger is still going on, and the Chinese team is facing great defensive pressure."

"Bang!" Uzbekistan's long-range shot was saved by goalkeeper Zeng Cheng.

"Zeng Cheng temporarily kept the goal of the Chinese team, but if this continues, it will be a matter of conceding the goal sooner or later. The rest of the Chinese team must also stand up."

It seems that the Chinese team's fascination with collapsing at critical moments has returned.No matter how the outsiders expected and made suggestions, the Chinese team was always nervous and played timidly.

If you defend for a long time, you will lose. In a game where you are completely suppressed by your opponent and it is difficult to fight back, you can never hope that your defense will not make mistakes.Not to mention the Chinese team that made frequent mistakes today?

In the 27th minute of the game, the Chinese team made another mistake.This time the Uzbekistan team finally seized the opportunity, and Zeng Cheng couldn't save it.

"Uzbekistan scored!"

Uzbekistan striker Sergeyev broke the goal of the Chinese team.

The moment the football flew into the goal, the entire Tianhe Stadium fell silent.From the original hustle and bustle, the cheers and cheers all over the sky became quieter than ever before.All the home fans stared blankly at the Uzbekistan team celebrating passionately.

This is not true!

There must be something wrong!

Didn't the Chinese team even win the most powerful Iran and South Korea teams in Group A?Didn't this game say yes, easy to win the Uzbekistan team?Why has it become a backward opponent now?

how so?Yan Feng stared blankly at the football in the goal and Zeng Cheng who was expressing his dissatisfaction angrily.He couldn't accept this fact.He actually made an error that shouldn't have happened, allowing his opponent to steal the ball and score.

It was agreed to lead the Chinese team to the World Cup.Now I am ruining the dream of the Chinese team.No, it is the dream of all Chinese footballers.

Yan Feng felt that he was a sinner.He didn't want this in his heart, but he didn't know why, since he stepped on the court today, he felt that his whole person was different from before.

Are you going to lose?Is the Chinese team going to shatter their World Cup dreams again?

Thoughts like this kept popping up in Yan Feng's mind.Depression, disappointment, guilt and other emotions occupied his whole being.

Next, Yan Feng didn't know how to kick off again.He only felt that he was in a dream, and the thoughts in his heart were not like this, but he could only run and play football with the crowd in a daze.

Yan Feng is in the game, but the real him is not in the game.

If one had to use one word to describe Yan Feng's current state, it would be sleepwalking.That's right, this is how we often see the host say in a certain game that XX is like sleepwalking on the court.

Now Yan Feng is sleepwalking on the court.To be exact, almost the entire Chinese team is sleepwalking.

If it weren't for the Uzbekistan team being unfamiliar with the Tianhe team; if it wasn't for the Uzbekistan team being somewhat uncomfortable with the hot climate in Guangzhou; if it wasn't for the Chinese team being lucky;It may be that even God can't stand the fact that China, who is a big man, has not been able to enter the World Cup for more than ten years.Under such unfavorable circumstances, the Uzbekistan team could not score another goal.

In the first half, the Uzbekistan team actually kicked a full three goalposts.Three times!If they all went a little bit closer to the goal, the Chinese team would have been completely kicked to death in the first half.That way the game would be over in the first half.

Well, with the help of God, the Chinese team miraculously fell behind by only one goal in the first half.

God is helping, but if you don't save yourself, no one can save you.

After the first half, the Chinese team walked into the locker room in a daze.

China Central Sports Station and all the TV stations broadcasting the game were discussing the first half of the Chinese team excitedly and angrily.In the end, it became a sentence. "The Chinese team still has a chance. The players of the Chinese team have to wake up. Don't make it appear that there is not much time left for the Chinese team in the next game!"

"There is not much time left for the Chinese team!" In the locker room of the Chinese team, Lippi was saying to all the players in a low voice.His voice was not loud, but everyone could hear the suppressed anger and disappointment in his voice.

"If you keep going like this, it's going to be like this soon."

"The Chinese team has only entered the World Cup once in history. After that, they have not set foot in the World Cup for more than ten years. They can't even enter the top ten in Asia."

"Now the opportunity is in front of you. Think about how you have come all the way and come to today. Are you willing to shatter the World Cup football dreams of more than a billion Chinese people?"

"The first half is over. Forget the first half. In the second half, let's start from scratch. Let go of any superfluous thoughts. Play football with all your heart. Don't leave regrets for your football career!"

Having said that, Lippi stopped talking.Any tactical arrangement is meaningless.The rest can only be seen whether the players can get out of the pressure on their own.

Listening to Lippi's words, Yan Feng knew he couldn't go on like this.His state is very wrong, he has to find a way to calm his mind down.

Yan Feng took the water bottle he was drinking in his hand and poured it on his head vigorously.

All the teammates also turned their heads to look at him in confusion following his movement.

Yan Feng shook his head, shaking off the spray on his head, but he still felt that his mind was not calm enough, and he had returned to the previous state.

Everyone looked at him silently without speaking.

Yan Feng didn't speak either, he glanced around, and then said something. "Sorry, Coach, I have to leave. Excuse me, do you have any more ice?"

After speaking, under the gaze of everyone, he turned his head and walked out of the locker room.

"Head coach, him?" Li Tie looked at Lippi uneasily.

"Let him go!" Lippi said lightly, his eyes thoughtful.He seemed to understand Yan Feng's thoughts.
