……

"Come"

The team doctor took off Tang Ye's socks and wrapped them with a sports bandage.

Tang Ye's ankle was not injured, but the situation in the first half made the Chinese team have to pay attention to this aspect.

The bandage can reduce the pressure on Tang Ye's ankle when he is tackled.

"Oh, thank you"

Tang Ye leaned against the cabinet behind him.

"Haha, no need, no need, you're too kind."

The team doctor said with a smile, "After treating you during last year's Asian Cup qualifiers, I kept bragging to my relatives during the Chinese New Year. No one could outdo me in that."

"..."

"Ha ha!"

Tang Ye and the team doctor exchanged a fist bump.

With a few minutes left, the players took a break, while Tang Ye, with the help of the team doctor, used resistance bands to reactivate his thigh muscles.

Madaloni glanced at his watch.

"Come on! Get ready!"

The players gathered together, and many of them were looking at Tang Ye, who had just walked over: "Are you alright?"

"no problem"

Tang Ye gave a thumbs-up and placed his hand on top: "I just had a massage, and I feel like I'm stronger now."

"Okay, okay, that's the feeling."

"3, 2, 1!"

"China will prevail!"

……

"Oh, Counter-Strike Online! Counter-Strike Online! Wild! Ace needs to vent!"

"Fighting is the starting point of our stubbornness!"

"I want to wield my power and amplify my influence!"

"Watch this dragon battle unfold in the wild!"

The third Chinese song of the day was played at Rostov Stadium.

These songs were chosen by fans through voting, and compared to "Little Hero with a Big Belly" and "Guangdong Love Story," this song is the most normal.

Not just Tang Ye, fans should cheer for all the players on the national team!
Wow!!!

The players from both sides walked out of the tunnel together, and the song playing on the speakers hadn't finished yet.

Although he hadn't played Counter-Strike Online much, Tang Ye had heard the song "Counter-Strike Online" quite a few times.

It's burning up!

"The Chinese team made a substitution in the second half..."

"Hao Junmin replaces Zhang Yuning, and Wei Shihao is already ready on the sidelines."

"Yes, trailing by two goals, the Chinese team now needs to launch their counterattack."

"If we want to counter-attack, like we said in the first half, the Chinese team needs to find a way to get Tang Ye more touches on the ball."

Allowing Tang Ye more touches on the ball was the key to China's victory.

Lippi also firmly grasped this key point, which is why he brought on Hao Junmin as a support player.

At the start of the second half, Senegal immediately began to play defensively.

Head coach Cissé is currently unsure of Lippi's intentions regarding this substitution, so the players need to play cautiously.

After all, it's hard to predict what a player like Tang Ye will do next on the court.

Yu Hanchao gets the ball and cuts inside!
Tang Ye followed immediately!

Just like in the first half, Senegal still sent two players to mark Tang Ye closely.

But unlike the first half, this time the Chinese team had an additional supporting attacking midfielder.

Yu Hanchao first passed the ball to Hao Junmin, and then Hao Junmin passed the ball to Tang Ye!
"Pretty!"

Let's take a look.

Seemingly pushed to the limit by Senegal, Tang Ye received the ball and immediately passed it to the right byline.

Wow!!!

The pass was spot on, finding Wu Lei right after his forward run!
Wu Lei stopped the ball with his foot and then kept it at his feet.

Sabali used to defend one-on-one.

Look at Wu Lei...

Wu Lei dribbled the ball with the outside of his foot, gradually compressing Senegal's defense, and when the time was right, he suddenly passed it back.

Zheng Zhi!

A cross from a 45-degree angle!
Since there was no center forward, Tang Ye went straight to the vicinity of the penalty area.

There was a defender on the side, but no problem, I easily controlled the ball with a chest control.

He quickly turned around, and the ball was just a little in front of Tang Ye's left foot.

"go!"

His right hand points to the right side of the penalty area, while his left hand is behind his back, pointing to the left side of the penalty area.

Different teammates see different information. Wu Lei cuts in from the right wing, while Yu Hanchao decisively runs into the penalty area.

The defenders had already rushed over. Tang Ye raised his left foot, pretending to play a through ball to Wu Lei, but actually used a rabona kick to pass the ball from right to left.

"!"

Sane was tricked in the penalty area; after turning around, he twisted his body, lost his balance, and fell to the ground.

Possession of the ball was given to Yu Hanchao.

"Be steady, be steady!"

Tang Ye gave instructions.

It's up to Yu Hanchao!

Stop the ball first!
Then give it another kick!
The movements were a bit slow, but steady enough.

This ball...

"The ball is in!"

"The ball went in"

"Yu Hanchao!"

"Tang Ye's rabona kick completed the assist for Han Chao!"

"1-2! China has pulled one back!"

“Yu Hanchaoooo!!!!!”

The English commentator shouted out the words written on the back of Yu Hanchao's jersey, and all the Chinese players rushed to the left corner flagpole to celebrate.

"Brilliant!"

"Brother Chao!"

"Tang Ye!"

Just a little in front of the stands, the Chinese national football players piled up on top of each other, pressing Tang Ye and Yu Hanchao tightly underneath.

Madaloni raised his arms high, and Lippi quickly applauded.

In the 52nd minute of the second half, the Chinese team pulled one back after trailing by two goals.

Their tactics worked!

You have gained 30 comeback points.

[You gain an extra 30 Comeback Points for your first assist in a World Cup final match]

Make a small profit!
Snapped!
After clapping with his teammates, Tang Ye slowly started walking back.

Senegal's attacking surge put a lot of pressure on the Chinese national team.

However, through tactical adjustments, the Chinese team still managed to break through the opponent's defense.

“China!”

Boom!

“China!”

Boom!

The fans cheered loudly, and Tang Ye and several teammates clapped and shouted, "Go! Go!"

The score went from 0-2 to 1-2, but Lippi did not smile as a result.

The tactics were successful, but the problem is...

Senegal are not fools; they will make corresponding tactical adjustments.

Can a tactic that has already succeeded once succeed a second time?

Beep!
The next ball was kicked off, and the Chinese players, riding the momentum of their previous goal, launched a strong attack on Senegal.

A series of passes from the backcourt!
Tang Ye moved to the side of the road on his own initiative!

Zhang Linpeng passed the ball to Tang Ye, who turned around and flicked the ball directly to Hao Junmin in the middle with his right foot.

A very penetrating pass.

China's attack is firing on all cylinders again!
"hurry up!"

"Charge! We can charge now!"

"Don't hesitate, damn it!"

The fans were already urging him on, and Hao Junmin controlled the ball in the middle.

Tang Ye ran up from behind.

Passing the ball forward was too risky, so Hao Junmin really wanted to pass it to Tang Ye.

Because the other players only feel safe when Tang Ye has the ball. However, it seems that because of the previous attack, the Senegalese players are now much smarter.

Initially, two defenders were marking Tang Ye at the same time, but now three defenders are marking both Tang Ye and Hao Junmin at the same time.

The connection between the two attacking midfielders of the Chinese team has been cut off!

Depend on!
Sensing something was wrong, Tang Ye quickly signaled for Wu Lei to come and help.

Hao Junmin passed the ball to Wu Lei.

Hey!

With a shout, Tang Ye ran right past Wu Lei and successfully reached the right baseline.

There's an opportunity!
The full-back came up, and Tang Ye pretended to cross, but actually quickly cut inside with his right foot and passed the ball directly to his left foot.

boom!
Push it into an inverted triangle!
The target is Zhang Xizhe, who is charging up from the middle lane!
"Just attack!"

boom!
Zhang Xizhe unleashed a long-range shot, but it was easily saved by goalkeeper Ndiaye.

"still have a chance!"

The save landed precisely where Yu Hanchao was.

Stop the ball!

Yu Hanchao stood still and passed the ball to Tang Ye, who was running over from the side.

Tang Ye paused for a moment, then walked directly into the penalty area.

The idea was good, but Tang Ye's forward run was once again shut down by Senegal, and his final pass was cleared by Wague.

"Roar!"

Two Senegalese defenders collided chest to chest, celebrating their defensive victory over Tang Ye.

Dongqiudi live match report: Tang Ye delivered a long through ball from the middle, but Wu Lei's one-on-one shot was saved.

The pressure is immense, brothers!

[Wuhan! What's going on with Wu Lei?!]

Senegal has discovered the secret to their victory: simply contain Tang Ye and Wu Lei, and the others will be unable to create any attacking opportunities.

The time has reached the 65th minute, and the score is still 1-2.

Tang Ye raised his hand to comfort Wu Lei.

Senegal has specific measures in place for both Tang Ye and Wu Lei, so Tang Ye can personally understand Wu Lei's current predicament.

"Yes, that's right. Senegal is constantly trying to cut off the connection between Tang Ye and Hao Junmin, which is something the Chinese team doesn't want to see."

"Because if we do that, Lippi's tactical adjustment will lose its purpose..."

"A substitution by the Chinese team!"

"Left winger Yu Hanchao is off the field, and Wei Shihao is on his behalf!"

As soon as Wei Shihao came on, he ran to Tang Ye's position and handed him a note: "Tang Ye!"

I opened it and took a look.

The handwriting was unclear, but the message instructed Tang Ye to move his position forward again, to act as a pseudo-striker.

Tang Ye tore the note to shreds and threw it away. He glanced at Lippi outside the stadium, who gave him a thumbs-up.

Before they could even adjust their formation, Senegal had already launched an attack.

Mane launched a sprint down the wing.

The speed of the players was simply too overwhelming for the Chinese defense.

After bumping past Wu Lei and reaching the byline, Mane chose to cut inside himself.

"They're about to fight!"

Tang Ye called out, and goalkeeper Zeng Cheng made a move.

Snapped!
Mane curls a shot into the far corner!

Zeng Cheng made the save!

"Pretty!"

The commentator had just finished speaking, but the crisis for the Chinese team was still not resolved.

Mei Fang got the ball after it was saved, but before he could clear it, Niang snatched it away.

boom!
Give it a gentle push.

The ball went in!
"..."

Tang Ye stood still, while Zeng Cheng knelt on one knee.

"Two goals!"

"Niang has opened the scoring for the Chinese team again!"

"My goodness, Senegal's attack is very simple and straightforward, but they have repeatedly opened up China's goal with such attacks!"

Beep beep beep!!!

It was the 71st minute of the match, and the score gap between China and Senegal widened to 2 goals again.

Tang Ye squatted on the ground.

He was breathing rapidly, and he could clearly feel his own heartbeat.

In order to coordinate with Hao Junmin and Wu Lei, Tang Ye made a lot of short runs in the second half, which led to his stamina being quickly depleted.

"Lift your head up, lift your head up!"

Madaloni shouted at the Chinese players on the field in English, which startled the other members of the coaching staff who quickly came over to pull Madaloni back to prevent him from doing anything impulsive.

Dongqiudi live match report: In the 73rd minute, Tang Ye received the ball on the right byline, but was surrounded by 3 players, and the ball was eventually cleared out of bounds.

After playing as a striker, Tang Ye got a lot more screen time, but he only got halfway through his cool moments before disappearing.

The reason is simple: several Senegalese defenders had their eyes fixed on Tang Ye.

"Hmm... Tang Ye is either being hit or on his way to being hit..."

Physical contact inevitably leads to conflicts between players, and Wei Shihao and Sabaly quickly got into a fight.

The victim, Tang Ye, was still lying on the ground and had not gotten up. Wei Shihao and two Senegalese defenders had a total of three yellow cards.

The total number of yellow cards for this match has now reached 5.

"You idiot!"

Not only was it to avenge Tang Ye, but Wei Shihao himself also got a little carried away, and in the end Zhang Xizhe had to pull him back.

Senegal made substitutions immediately after two defenders received yellow cards.

That's their tactic; to limit Tang Ye, some appropriate fouls are necessary.

Therefore, Cissé must ensure that key players such as center-backs and defensive midfielders do not have any cards on their hands.

Tang Ye narrowed his eyes as he watched the two newly arrived Senegalese defenders, seemingly deep in thought.

He was very tired, but in the next few minutes, Tang Ye suddenly adopted an extremely exaggerated pace.

"Hey, what's going on?"

The commentators and fans were stunned.

Tang Ye's passing and movement suddenly accelerated, giving the impression of playing in a Champions League knockout stage match.

His teammates obviously couldn't keep up, but Tang Ye didn't worry about that for the time being.

Players who have just come on the field cannot get into the game in a short time, and Tang Ye's idea is to seize this opportunity!

"go!"

Gao Zhunyi, who had just come on, passed the ball to Tang Ye and then prepared to run over to receive it. At this moment, Tang Ye used a "fritter" move to create distance, bypassed the defender, and rushed straight to the front.

Gao Zhunyi: ?

Wu Lei and Wei Shihao came over to try to play together.

Wu Lei was very focused and executed a one-two pass to Tang Ye, helping the latter get closer to the penalty area.

The opportunity has arrived!

With a defender in front of him, Tang Ye pointed to the right baseline, signaling Wu Lei to move forward, and then flicked the ball to the right with the outside of his foot.

The camera focused, and Tang Ye's center of gravity suddenly began to drop, forcing the defending player to change the direction of his body.

Just as the defender shifted his weight, Tang Ye took a step forward with his right foot.

!

The defensive player's center of gravity shifted further!
then!

Tang Ye twisted his right foot, simultaneously shifting his weight and dribbling the ball from the left.

"Oh!!!!"

Lift your left leg!
Fake shot!

"Oh!!"

After shaking off two defenders, Tang Ye stepped directly into the penalty area.

His teammates were calling for the ball, but Tang Ye ignored them and prepared to start his third dribble.

The Senegalese center-back panicked and stepped directly on Tang Ye's instep.

Tang Ye tried to dodge, but couldn't completely avoid it.

"Eh!"

"That's a penalty!"

"That's definitely a penalty!"

Fans shouted and pressured the referee.

Look at the referee!
The referee slowly ran over, almost without hesitation.

Twelve fingers!
"Oh my gosh!"

"It's a penalty!"

"Penalty for China!"

……

Dongqiudi live match report: Tang Ye dribbled past 3 players in the middle and was fouled and fell to the ground. China was awarded a penalty kick.
