Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 177 We'll just take two in.
After the match began.

Every Qatari player on the field displayed a burning fighting spirit amidst the cheers of the home fans.

Every Qatari player entered the game with unwavering confidence, and they all desperately wanted to defeat the Chinese team.

Therefore, they performed very well on the field.

Meanwhile, Qatar also made significant moves, but South Korean referee Kim Dong-jin, who officiated the match, largely ignored them. Known for his strictness, he was surprisingly lenient in his approach during this game.

As a result, the Chinese team players initially found it difficult to adapt.

Three minutes into the game, Shan Yongzhuo received the ball on the right side of the penalty area and was brought down by an opposing player, which was a foul.

However, the referee did not blow the whistle, which aroused extreme dissatisfaction among the Chinese team players, and many of them went up to argue with the referee.

However, it was this lapse in concentration that allowed Qatar to score the first goal.

Defensive midfielder Lawrence launched a long ball forward, and striker Sebastian dribbled past Du Wei and shot before Zhao Peng could intercept, breaking through Yang Zhi's defense.

This goal was scored very quickly, which is disheartening.

The Chinese players were completely taken aback, and they were all dissatisfied with the referee's decision, with Deng Zhuoxiang even receiving a yellow card for it.

But now that the goal has been scored, there's no point in arguing about it anymore.

The commentator lamented, "Qatar scored just three minutes into the game..."

"This is what we often say: don't be affected by off-court factors. These young men are still too young. It looks like this match will be tough."

Chinese fans in the surrounding stands shared similar sentiments, booing to express their dissatisfaction, but their boos were drowned out by the cheers of the Qatari fans, leaving no trace of their discontent.

More and more Chinese fans began to worry, a kind of familiar bad feeling creeping into their hearts.

They thought of the Chinese team's past performance, those matches where they started strong but ended weak, those moments when "a draw was a victory," and the saying that "time is running out for the Chinese team."

Qatar was very excited about the idea.

Scoring a goal at the start of the game is arguably the best possible start, allowing them to execute their counter-attacking strategy more effectively.

Head coach Mechu stood excitedly on the sidelines, clapping his hands and loudly reminding the players, "Retreat!"

"Pay attention to defense!"

Shan Yongzhuo didn't care at all. He encouraged his teammates loudly, "It's okay, if they score one, we can score two more!"

Upon hearing Shan Yongzhuo's words, his teammates finally snapped out of their daze, and all their eyes turned to Shan Yongzhuo.

"Score two more?"

The other teammates were amused, but Shan Yongzhuo's words didn't seem like a joke, which lightened the atmosphere a bit.

Both sides returned to their positions.

As the referee blew his whistle, the players returned to the game, and the Chinese team launched an offensive.

The ball was well organized in the midfield. Yang Hao, Zhou Haibin and Hao Junmin were responsible for organizing the attack in the midfield. After controlling the ball for about half a minute, it was passed to Qu Bo on the wing.

Qu Bo tried to use his speed to rush forward, but he was stuck to the opposing defender and had to pass the ball back to Yang Hao.

After Yang Hao received the ball, he noticed that Shan Yongzhuo had retreated and raised his hand to ask for the ball, so he kicked the ball directly to him.

Shan Yongzhuo successfully received the ball on the left side of the penalty area.

Qatar's center-back Bilal followed up, positioning himself behind Shan Yongzhuo to prevent him from breaking through, and kept probing with his foot.

Dan Yongzhuo glanced at Beihu, seemingly intending to change direction, but instead gave the ball a slight push.

The ball seemed to be a mispass, leaving everyone baffled. Bilal hesitated for a moment, then felt a lightness in front of him as Shan Yongzhuo chased after the ball.

Bilal caught up, but it was already too late.

Dan Yongzhuo caught up with the ball, then turned and shot in one fluid motion. The ball instantly flew past Villar.

The ball was positioned very, very high, looking as if it were about to pass over the crossbar and hurtle directly towards the stands.

However, when the football reaches its highest point, it begins to fall rapidly, and its position becomes unpredictable.

"Oh no, a leaf ball!"

The goalkeeper made no reaction; the ball flew straight into Qatar's goal like a shooting star.

As soon as the referee blew the whistle, everyone realized that the score had been changed again.

"The ball is in!"

"Goal! A brilliant knuckleball, it's Shan Yongzhuo again!"

"On the left side of the goal, about 25 meters away, he turned and fired a shot that turned out to be a dipping knuckleball!"

"so amazing!"

The commentators kept exclaiming in amazement, saying that the shot was brilliant. Qatar had only been leading for less than a minute before China equalized the score.

The Chinese football fans in the stands were the same; they cheered excitedly, instantly igniting the entire stadium.

The Chinese players on the field were also celebrating excitedly. They had just been worried about conceding a goal, but they didn't expect to score so quickly.

Less than a minute!
His teammates in the frontcourt immediately rushed towards Shan Yongzhuo in excitement.

Surrounded by people, Shan Yongzhuo remained calm, saying, "Don't rush to celebrate, we're not in the lead yet."

"Yes, yes, Brother Shan is right. Let's take the lead first."

"Brother Shan, that was incredible! How did you even play that?"

"I really can't believe they got in!"

"..."

After the Chinese team caused a ruckus for a while, the match resumed.

Qatar is extremely frustrated.

They managed to score a goal with a blitzkrieg, but the opponent scored again in less than a minute, which was a big blow to them.

When the game restarted, this quick goal conceded clearly had some impact on them.

This attack was intercepted, and with the change of possession, their defense was a step too slow to recover.

After making the interception, Yang Hao spotted Shan Yongzhuo's position in the attacking third and kicked the ball long towards him.

"Danger! Retreat immediately!"

Mechu shouted loudly from the sidelines, and the Qatari players quickly retreated to defend, but they were too late.

Shan Yongzhu caught up at the 30-meter mark, got the ball, and there was only one defender, Bilar, in front of him.

Bilal was very frustrated, but he had no choice but to stick close and prevent the opponent from kicking!
However, he also slowed down.

Without hesitation, Shan Yongzhuo immediately activated his Mighty Vajra Leg technique.

This time it wasn't a dipping shot, but a powerful long-range shot.

The ball hurtled towards the Qatari goal like a cannonball.

Goalkeeper Burhan leaped high and made a save, but to no avail.

The football spun straight into the corner.
