Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 186 The Great Demon King Finally Makes His Appearance
The game continues.

Shan Yongzhuo started standing still again.

No one thought he was playing passively.

Is this a passive game?

If a hat-trick in 30 minutes is considered passive play, then every player on the field would want to play passively like him.

Shan Yongzhuo's actions were clearly intended to lull his opponent into a false sense of security!

The fans in the stands felt that this match was far too easy for Shan Yongzhuo, so he could rest and remain motionless for most of the time, which would be enough to lead the Chinese team to victory over Australia.

Australian coach Arnold believes that remaining motionless is an odd behavior, a peculiar behavior unique to super geniuses.

The number 10 on the field is undoubtedly an eccentric super genius. This lazy behavior seems understandable, since the opponent can defeat Australia without any effort.

Gao Hongbo's views are similar to Arnold's, but there are also some differences.

According to Gao Hongbo, Shan Yongzhuo deliberately remained motionless to give his teammates more opportunities to perform.

He steps up when his teammates are struggling, just like his previous game-winning performance.

"This is the captain!"

Gao Hongbo felt that making Shan Yongzhuo the captain was a very wise decision, and Shan Yongzhuo was fulfilling his duties as captain very well at the moment.

However, Australian players viewed Shan Yongzhuo's behavior as a display of skill, the way a world-class striker plays.

The Australian players were in low spirits at the moment; even though the game was in progress, many of them seemed a bit listless.

Their fighting spirit has gradually been lost.

Of course, there are also some players who refuse to give up, such as Tim Cahill, who continues to run desperately in the attacking third, trying to find a chance to score.

then.

In the 42nd minute, Shan Yongzhuo received the ball on the edge of the penalty area and volleyed it into the goal.

4 is better than 1!

"Shan Yongzhuo scored his fourth goal in half a day, completely crushing the Australian team!" the CTV5 commentator exclaimed excitedly.

This was the last goal of the first half.

After halftime, the second half began.

The Australian players have regained some of their form, and their offense and defense are playing more logically and systematically.

But they only lasted for 6 minutes.

In the 51st minute, Zhou Haibin brought the ball to the vicinity of the byline and delivered a cross, which was blocked out of bounds by the opposing defender.

Corner kick.

Shan Yongzhuo took another corner kick and once again scored a goal directly from the corner.

5 is better than 1!

The moment the ball flew into the Australian goal again, a huge uproar and cheers erupted from the stands, and the Australian players' faces were filled with disappointment and despair.

There's no way to play this ball!
After scoring the goal, Shan Yongzhuo returned to the Chinese fans' section to celebrate, where the Chinese fans chanted his name wildly.

They were so excited.

This is the Asian Cup semi-final match, and the opponent is Australia, a powerhouse in Asia and a regular participant in the World Cup finals.

Now, the second half has just begun, and the score has already become a terrifying 5-1, which makes Chinese fans feel like they are dreaming.

When will the Chinese team be able to beat Australia 5-1?

The fans who came to the stadium were very glad they had come to Qatar and were able to watch what was probably the best game in the history of the Chinese national football team.

Meanwhile, fans watching on television had already raised their beer glasses and cheered loudly. After the goal, the CTV5 commentator stated with certainty, "Although the second half has only just begun, it is safe to say that the Chinese team has advanced to the final."

"Shan Yongzhuo scores an average of one goal every 10 minutes; such efficiency would make any team feel hopeless..."

"With a player like Shan Yongzhuo, I believe the Chinese national football team can defeat Japan and win its first-ever Asian Cup title..."

In the 64th minute, Shan Yongzhuo scored another beautiful dipping shot from a free kick just outside the penalty area.

6 is better than 1!

He scored his sixth goal.

After the goal, the gasps of surprise subsided considerably, but the cheers continued unabated. Everyone had become accustomed to Shan Yongzhuo's goals, as he had scored all of China's goals.

He scored too many goals.

However, not many people left; apart from the die-hard Australian fans, the vast majority of fans stayed in the stadium to watch.

Gao Hongbo is preparing to replace him.

The game has already been won; keeping Shan Yongzhuo on the field any longer would be simply too unfair.

So, Yang Xu began his warm-up preparations.

However, before the fourth official on the sidelines could raise the substitution sign, the situation on the field changed again.

68 minutes.

Shan Yongzhuo received the ball on the edge of the penalty area, turned and fired a shot that once again pierced the goalkeeper Schwarzer.

7 is better than 1!

The stark scoreline was almost unbearable to look at. Tears welled up in the eyes of young Australian player Spiranovic, and the other Australian players stared blankly, unable to believe it was real.

After Shan Yongzhuo scored his seventh goal, he was finally substituted.

With more than 20 minutes left in the game, keeping him on the field any longer would be really unfair.

So, while the Chinese team was still celebrating their goal, the substitution sign was raised on the sidelines.

Shan Yongzhuo was substituted off, and Yang Xu came on.

This substitution immediately boosted the morale of the Australian team, who felt that Gao Hongbo was a really good person.

As Shan Yongzhuo left the field, he received a chorus of applause from the surrounding stands.

Not only Chinese fans, but also other fans who came to the scene, even Australian fans, applauded him.

His performance was truly outstanding, and Australian fans expressed their admiration for Shan Yongzhuo with applause, which was an affirmation of an extremely excellent opponent.

However, Australian head coach Arnold on the sidelines hoped that Shan Yongzhuo would stay on the field.

Because they are now down by 6 goals, Australia is definitely going to lose.

As the head coach, if the team is slaughtered, he will definitely have to take the blame. So how should we change the subject?
Of course, it's about praising the opponent!
"It's not that we're not good enough, it's that our opponents are too strong!"

This was the explanation Arnold had prepared.

During the match, Shan Yongzhuo displayed a terrifying competitive form, scoring 7 goals, which was the fundamental reason for the loss.

Therefore, Arnold did not want Shan Yongzhuo to leave the field; he wanted Shan Yongzhuo to stay on the field. So, it was only natural that Australia lost the game.

The Australian players, on the other hand, didn't think too much about it. After Shan Yongzhuo left the field, they felt much more relaxed.

The great villain has finally made his appearance!

Winning or losing doesn't matter anymore; they just want to play well in the upcoming matches.
