The commentator surnamed Huang became more and more angry as he talked. He pointed at the camera showing Kubo Takefusa standing in the tunnel after being sent off, and said angrily, "This little devil, I originally thought he was standing here because he felt guilty. I wanted to see if Li Mingyu was really injured!"
"Who would have known that after Li Mingyu got up to make sure everything was okay, this little devil actually kicked down the trash can next to him. He was so cruel!"
Chen Lei, the host of Tencent Sports next to him, had a suppressed smile on his face. These words cannot be said even in a very loose online live broadcast, but as a guest, any remarks made by them have nothing to do with Tencent Sports.
In fact, when Chen Lei saw this scene, he almost cursed, but the commentator surnamed Huang immediately slapped the table and cursed the little Japan that the devil is not a thing.
Although the supervisor of Tencent Sports wanted the commentator surnamed Huang to control his words a little bit, looking at the skyrocketing ratings, the supervisor sat down silently.
The commentator surnamed Huang completely let himself go after leaving CCTV.
Now worth over 100 million, he has more than 2,000 live sports qualifications. Today, he has become a different person.
Li Mingyu, who is in Qatar, is receiving massage treatment from the team doctor in the lounge.
In the first half, Li Mingyu was targeted by Japan National Team and committed multiple fouls, causing Li Mingyu to have several bruises on his body.
Li Mingyu was listening to the head coach Enrique's tactics for the second half while enjoying the meticulous muscle relaxation massage from the team doctor.
Enrique suddenly asked, "Roberto Carlos, can Li play in the second half?"
When Roberto Carlos, the team doctor who was massaging Li Mingyu, heard this, he looked at Li Mingyu and said, "Li's current physical condition is not very good. If possible, fifteen minutes is his limit."
Li Mingyu shook his head and said, "No, Roberto Carlos, I think I can do it, don't say that!"
Enrique said with a straight face, "Li, although the competition is very important, in my eyes, you are more important. This is your first World Cup. You are still young, so don't force yourself too much."
Even Busquets said jokingly, "Li, do you think we can't win the game without you? Do you just look down on an old guy like me?"
The other teammates laughed loudly. Although Li Mingyu is very important in this team, they are leading 2:1 and there is one more player. If they cannot win such a game, they can all hang themselves.
Looking at his confident teammates, Li Mingyu laughed and stopped forcing himself.
Because the muscles all over his body were a little sore.
This is not simply caused by the collision in this game, but mainly because Li Mingyu is just 20 years old and his body has not fully expanded yet. He will suffer a disadvantage against these adult players, and this season's schedule is too intensive.
Li Mingyu It was the first time in such a high-intensity competition that I did not realize my physical problems in time.
At the time of Manchester City, the team doctor had discovered Li Mingyu's symptoms, but the competitive Li Mingyu felt that he was fine.
Fortunately, Guardiola did not treat Li Mingyu like a mule of the production team, so he recovered.
However, coming to World Cup, with a more intensive and intense schedule, Li Mingyu is still the team's leading player and is under tremendous pressure.
Guardiola had already greeted Enrique before World Cup, and informed Li Mingyu of his physical condition in detail.
Enrique also knows it very well, and will let Li Mingyu have a good rest whenever he gets the chance. After all, this is Spain National Team's national treasure player, and he cannot be destroyed by his own hands.
After the massage from the team doctor, Li Mingyu felt that his body felt much more relaxed.
Li Mingyu left the lounge with his teammates.
Arriving on the field, the players from both sides came to their own half, and the referee blew the whistle to start the second half.
After a half-time break and adjustments, the Japan National Team players showed a desperate momentum at the beginning of the second half.
Facing Spain National Team's attack, Japan National Team did not retreat to the half court and concentrate on defensive counterattacks as everyone imagined. Instead, it launched an encirclement and suppression of Spain's players in the midfield.
This situation really surprised Spain National Team.
Li Mingyu passed the ball to Pedri. Due to the desperate defense of the opponent's players, Pedri was unable to stabilize the ball. When he caught the pass, he staggered a little.
Seeing this, Japan National Team's players quickly blocked Pedri's passing route and began to pinch Pedri.
Pedri quickly tried his best to protect the ball, but as he was not tall, he lost his vision of passing the ball after being surrounded by Japan National Team players.
Japan National Team's double team intercepted the ball directly from Pedri's feet.
As soon as the second half started, Spain National Team's offense suffered a setback.
Pedri quickly launched a counterattack after losing the ball.
However, Japan National Team did not rush to kick the ball out, but played a pass-and-control game in front of Spain National Team.
Although it feels like playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong, I have to say that the transmission control of Japan National Team is still very delicate.
Spain National Team's three-person encirclement and robbery in a small area failed to work for a while.
However, due to one more player, the numerical advantage of all Spain players made it difficult for Japan National Team to pass and control.
Japan National Team's goalkeeper Eiji Kawashima acted as a defender and participated in Japan National Team's passing and control.
However, Spain's defense pushed Japan National Team's pass and control further and further back. Eiji Kawashima had already received the return pass twice, and Japan National Team's defense line had been stretched into a straight line. If Spain National Team could intercept the ball at this time, Japan National Team's defense line would collapse in one blow.
Even though it was so difficult for Japan National Team, their forward Yuya Osako did not choose to return to defense, but stood firmly near the center circle, always ready for a quick counterattack.
This also forces Spain's defense to not dare to press forward without any thought.
Eric Garcia and Laporte sandwich Yuya Osako in the middle to ensure that he cannot start speeding at the first time.
After passing the ball for five consecutive minutes, Spain National Team did not have a chance to control the ball in the second half.
The transmission and control technology of Japan National Team made the fans in the stands involuntarily give them applause and cheers.
Although it looked precarious, the players of Japan National Team did not blindly play the ball because they knew that once they played the ball, the rest of the game would fall into Spain National Team's offensive rhythm.
However, the pressure given by Spain has already caused the players of Japan National Team to collapse.
Japan National Team's passes have been pushed behind the penalty area line. This position is too dangerous for them.
In the end, Japan National Team still could not withstand Spain National Team's defensive pressure. When passing the ball to Japan National Team's goalkeeper Eiji Kawashima, Eiji Kawashima directly kicked the ball towards Spain National Team's half.
Finally freed.
Yuya Osako, who was near the center circle, saw the goalkeeper take a big kick and immediately started to move quickly, preparing to grab this spot.
But not long after it started, Yuya Osako stopped, not because Spain National Team's defense was very tight, but because the ball passed by Eiji Kawashima was too big.
In mid-air, the football had already crossed the center circle, and when it landed, it was almost in the Spain National Team penalty area.
Yuya Osako didn't want to waste his energy, so he stopped. However, the two Spain defenders next to him did not stop and were ready to go back to receive the goalkeeper's pass.
However, a scene appeared that stunned the fans at the scene and all the fans in front of the TV.
Since the football did not reach Spain's half at five minutes, and the opponent had no chance of threatening his own goal, the bored De Gea started pacing in his penalty area to keep himself active and avoid getting distracted.
When Japan National Team goalkeeper Eiji Kawashima took the kick, De Gea had already walked to the vicinity of the penalty spot.
When he saw the football flying over, De Gea began to move backwards. However, he judged that the football would hit about ten meters outside the penalty area.
At this position, if the football bounces again, it will be almost near the penalty spot, and you will be able to catch the ball.
So, a little before the small penalty area, De Gea stopped and prepared to receive the pass.
What he never expected was that after the ball hit the ground, the height and speed it bounced far exceeded his expectations.
De Gea looked at the ball with a horrified expression as it flew over his head. Frightened, he quickly took two steps back and jumped back desperately, trying to prevent the goal from happening with his own hands.
In the horrified eyes of fans around the world, the football crashed directly into Spain National Team's goal from above the palm of De Gea's hand.
2:2 draw, this goal was simply a stroke of genius.
Japan National Team's goalkeeper Eiji Kawashima couldn't believe his eyes after seeing the goal.
Damn it, I scored a goal, I scored a goal.
Japan National Team's players were overjoyed. This kind of goal given by God was a timely blessing!
The Spain National Team players stood there dumbfounded, unable to believe their eyes.
This should be the longest shot in the history of World Cup.
Although World Cup has many goals with goalkeepers in its history, most of them were goalkeepers taking free kicks, penalty kicks, or headers in the penalty area.
A kick like this from his own penalty area into the opponent's goal, let alone World Cup, is extremely rare even in the league.
Japan National Team fans are all so excited that they can't help themselves.
Spain National Team fans can't believe their eyes.
"Bella, that goal just now was fake!" Catherine still can't believe that Japan National Team's goal is real.
Bella pondered for a moment and said, "This shouldn't count!"
Looking at the cute little Bella, Catherine said with a wry smile, "Of course, forget it, this is in a formal attack, and it is not a goal kick taken by the goalkeeper. A goal kick is equivalent to an indirect free kick. If no one touches the ball in the middle, it doesn't count as a goal!"
Bella quickly shook his head and said, "Okay, you don't have to explain this to me, I don't understand!"
Seeing the hopeless Bella, Catherine couldn't help but raise his little fist.
The ignorant Bella, damn it!
Li Mingyu stood in the middle circle, frowning. Although the kick just now was too weird, the score on the field has been equalized now, and Japan National Team's opportunity has come.
What opportunity?
Delay time, play overtime, kick a penalty kick at the end, fight for character!
Li Mingyu couldn't help but shudder when he thought about the penalty kick.
Don't take penalty kicks.
I want victory!
Therefore, after kick-off, Li Mingyu thought silently in his heart.
"Start 'Assault'."
Li Mingyu stood in the center circle, Morata gently flicked the ball, and Li Mingyu rushed towards Japan National Team's half with the ball.
Li Mingyu hopes to steal a goal with the slack after Japan National Team scored.
Unexpectedly, Japan National Team's head coach Hajime Moriyasu was very alert. Although he was very excited about the goal, after celebrating, he keenly noticed that Li Mingyu came to the center circle and participated in the service.
A lot of homework has been done for Li Mingyu and Hajime Moriyasu.
From Li Mingyu in the second season of Barcelona to Li Mingyu's video in the Manchester City period, Hajime Moriyasu analyzed it very carefully.
Especially Li Mingyu in the Manchester City period. Many times, Li Mingyu would suddenly and quickly dribble the ball into the opponent's penalty area after kicking off.
Moreover, Li Mingyu was in perfect condition and speed at this time. The opponent allowed Li Mingyu to successfully attack like this many times without concentrating.
Moreover, basically every time, Li Mingyu will appear in the center circle to serve.
At other times, Li Mingyu will basically not participate in serving.
Therefore, when Hajime Moriyasu saw Li Mingyu coming to the center circle and preparing to serve, his vigilance immediately went on red alert.
A few seconds before kick-off, Hajime Moriyasu loudly reminded some players in Japan National Team's midfield and frontcourt in Japanese, and told them that even if they use foul tactics, they cannot allow Li Mingyu to speed up at will.
As a result, when Li Mingyu ran less than five meters, he was directly stopped by Daichi Kamada and hugged him.
Li Mingyu could only stop helplessly, spread his hands, and made a silent accusation against Japan National Team's shameless behavior.
The referee Damir Skomina directly showed a topaz War God card to Daichi Kamada, condemning his behavior just now.
Daichi Kamada shrugged his shoulders and did not express any objection to the referee's decision. After all, this kind of action was an obvious card-taking action.
However, what everyone doesn't know is that Japan National Team used a topaz War God card to enable Li Mingyu's "assault" skill this time.
In fact, in previous games, Li Mingyu's "attack" was not effective every time.
This skill requires timing. Most of the time, it is activated after stealing the ball in the backcourt.
However, it is impossible for Japan National Team to give Spain National Team such a chance today.
This time, even their forwards dropped back.
