Chapter 317: How unethical!
“Goal!!!”
"Lin Quan completed a super long-distance shot about 50 meters away from the goal. The shot was fast and accurate. Neuer, who was standing in the front position, had no way to deal with it and could only watch the ball go into the net!"
"Neuer paid the price for his aggressive positioning!"
"In previous games, no one could punish him, but in the World Cup final, he unfortunately encountered Lin Quan!"
On the CCTV commentary stand, the two guest commentators couldn't help but laugh out loud after seeing this overhead kick.
Neuer's position was like Fang Tangjing jumping back and forth on the yellow line in the court, shouting, "I'm in, I'm out, I'm in, hit me, idiot!"
Bao Longxing said he had never seen such a strange request, so he beat Fang Tangjing up.
The same goes for Lin Quan. Neuer's position is so forward, it would be unfair not to shoot at his goal.
In the commentary booth of German TV, after seeing this goal conceded, the commentators were devastated and extremely frustrated.
"Neuer's position is too forward!"
"Lin Quan has tried the hanging door before, he should be more cautious!"
"We are behind in the score now and the situation is very unfavorable for us. We need to score as soon as possible."
"That's right. The longer we lag behind, the greater the psychological pressure on the players. I'm afraid they will become more and more anxious as the game progresses!"
On the Spanish bench, when seeing Lin Quan score, Bosque excitedly clenched his fists, let out a roar, and then hugged his assistant tightly.
Because he was too excited, Bosque didn't even notice that the chewing gum in his mouth fell out, but this scene was recorded by the camera on the scene and became a classic scene of this World Cup.
After scoring the goal, Lin Quan rushed to the corner area and excitedly did a cool slide celebration.
The teammates rushed over from behind and followed suit to slide down the track.
The players on the bench also rushed into the field and joined the celebration.
Although he has already scored countless goals for both club and national team.
However, the goal scored in the World Cup final has a completely different meaning from any other goal scored in the past! The World Cup, held every four years, is the highest goal pursued by almost all players in the world, and the World Cup final is more important than any other game he has participated in.
It is no exaggeration to say that this goal is worth a thousand gold! If Spain finally wins the championship with Lin Quan's goal, the GDP of the entire country may be greatly increased.
In the stands, Spanish fans excitedly waved banners and flags in their hands, cheering enthusiastically for the hero who scored the goal - Lin Quan! At this moment, he is the god in the eyes of the Spanish people!
"Nice shot!"
In the box, King Felipe VI of Spain, who was watching the game with his two princesses, stood up excitedly after seeing Lin Quan's goal. Like many other Spanish fans, he couldn't help but applaud Lin Quan.
"She is as amazing as Grandpa said!"
The 9-year-old Princess Leonor couldn't help but calculate in her mind the possibility of Lin Quan completing a hat trick in this game.
There are still 60 minutes left in the game. Based on his efficiency of one goal every 30 minutes, he might really be able to complete a hat-trick in the World Cup final.
In another box, Rajoy, who was watching the game with German Chancellor Merkel, couldn't help but stand up and applaud his country's team after seeing the goal.
He applauded and smiled and said to Merkel:
"It seems that our teacher is more powerful!"
The corner of Merkel's mouth twitched slightly, and she heard the other party's sarcasm.
In the war of words between the media of the two countries before the game, the Spanish media insisted that the German team's passing and controlling style of play was copied from Spain.
Merkel responded calmly: "Football originated from Cuju in China, but can you see the shadow of the Chinese team on the World Cup stage?"
"Just as Spain opened the Age of Exploration, Germany was still a mess, but now Germany is the top horse of the European economy, while Spain is in debt."
Now it is Rajoy's turn to sweat. Spain is burdened with debt and is one of the PIIGS countries.
To solve their debt problem, they must rely on the help of economic powers like Germany, so he really has no confidence to challenge Germany on this issue.
…
On the German team's side, after seeing the ball being conceded, Löw could not help but lean back and grab his hair.
If the enemy had too many people in a positional battle, or if they had performed a coordinated attack that was amazing, he would accept it.
But the ball was lost...
How should I put it? It just feels so wrong!
This kind of goal loss can easily cause a serious blow to the team's morale.
Löw sighed and looked at Neuer with some concern, hoping that Neuer would not be affected by this and affect his game state!
However, how could such a goal loss not affect the players' mentality?
Neuer kicked the ball away in frustration. Ever since he first played against Lin Quan in the Telecom Cup, he seemed to have failed in every direct confrontation between the two! When will he be able to defeat this guy?
The team was behind in the score, and although the fans of the German team were anxious, they still did not forget to fulfill their duties as the twelfth man.
They cheered for the team diligently, hoping that the team could equalize the score as soon as possible.
After falling behind in the score, the German team increased the intensity of their attack.
The 36-year-old veteran Klose did not hesitate to burn his physical energy and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Spanish team's defenders again and again.
In the 35th minute, the German team played a wonderful combination in the frontcourt.
Thomas Muller faked a shot and delivered a clever pass.
Klose received a pass from his teammate on the right side of the penalty area. He had no time to adjust and shot decisively.
The shooting angle of this ball was not high, and Casillas blocked it very well. The ball was blocked by him and bounced back into the penalty area.
Muller tried to make a follow-up shot, but Ramos got there first and blocked the ball.
The Spanish team then launched a quick attack, and the ball was passed three times before entering the German team's penalty area.
This time, Germany's defense held its ground. Boateng withstood the impact of Diego Costa, making the latter's shot not very threatening and was easily confiscated by Neuer.
After completing this successful defense, several German defenders high-fived each other to celebrate.
Boateng finally let out a sigh of relief! He finally realized the reality. When facing a flexible player like Lin Quan, he couldn't play to his strengths and his defensive success rate was very low.
However, when dealing with traditional centers like Diego Costa, he can rely on his natural physical fitness to fight against the opponent, so his defensive success rate is very high.
In this case, don't think about competing against Lin Quan alone, cooperate more with your teammates, or leave him to a flexible guard like Lahm!
The German team has two sets of tactics. When ground penetration failed to work, they immediately switched to wing attack mode.
In the 39th minute, the German team tried to launch an attack on the wing.
Lahm made a 45-degree cross from the right, but Klose was unable to get the ball due to Pique's interference.
One minute later, Klose was kicked down by Ramos in front of the penalty area again. The referee verbally warned Ramos and awarded the German team a free kick in a good position.
Kroos passed the ball directly to the back post to find Hedveds who was covering, but the intention of the ball was too obvious and Ramos cleared the ball first.
It turns out that Ramos' headers are not only threatening when attacking, but can also help the team when defending.
In the 41st minute, Schweinsteiger suddenly sent a lob near the center circle, and Klose started at the right time.
Seeing that the German team was about to get a one-on-one opportunity, fortunately the Spanish goalkeeper Casillas was very focused. He chose to attack at the first moment and snatched the ball before Klose.
Klose couldn't stop the car and the two of them collided and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, neither of them was injured, and the game resumed quickly after being pulled up by their respective teammates.
The game seemed to have returned to the rhythm before the goal was conceded.
After falling behind, the German team was eager to equalize the score, but the Spanish team took advantage of the opponent's mentality and tried to launch quick counterattacks continuously.
The pace of the game became very fast, and the fans at the scene opened their eyes wide, afraid of missing any exciting scenes.
In the 42nd minute, Schweini tripped Iniesta while defending and received a yellow card.
In the 43rd minute, Lin Quan passed the ball to David Silva in the open space on the right. The moment the latter passed the ball to the front of the goal, the two defenders of the German team moved forward tacitly, causing Diego Costa who received the ball to be offside.
Diego Costa put the ball into the goal and was about to celebrate, but he saw that the linesman had raised his flag to indicate that the goal was invalid.
"Damn, is this offside? This is obviously a good ball. The two defenders of the German team were just in front of me..."
Diego Costa quickly shut up because the big screen at the scene just replayed the slow motion of the offside goal, and Diego Costa's offside was obvious.
On the sidelines, Spain's coach Bosque frowned.
The German team used the offside tactic very successfully today, and Diego Costa was called offside several times.
We have to remind this guy during the half-time break to pay attention to the timing of starting and not fall into the opponent's offside trap again.
In the final moments of the first half, Germany's attack began to become crazy.
They were eager to seize the last minute of the first half to equalize the score so that their tactics in the second half would not be so passive.
However, the Spanish players were experienced and after getting the ball, they began to pass the ball back and forth in the backcourt to waste time.
The German team immediately deployed heavy troops to join the pressing in the frontcourt, hoping to steal the ball and launch a counterattack on the spot.
In this situation, not to mention players like Klose and Muller who spared no effort, even Ozil, who had been listless before, couldn't help but cheer up.
He seemed to have realized that because of his poor performance in the first half, he would most likely have to taste the taste of the Love-brand hair dryer during the half-time break.

The German team's pressing achieved certain results. The Spanish backcourt players had less and less space to pass the ball, so they were forced to pass the ball to the frontcourt.
After Lin Quan got the ball, he pulled it to the side, avoiding the opponent's densely defended midfield.
The German players were already blood-thirsty at this time. They didn't care whether he was on the wing or in the middle. When they saw the ball at his feet, three of them immediately rushed towards him.
When Lin Quan saw this situation, he immediately passed the ball.
What was even more exaggerated was what Iniesta did after receiving the ball. The four German players around him all rushed towards him.
Iniesta was startled and quickly passed the ball to Lin Quan again.
The German players were furious. What are you doing here? It would be fine if you passed the ball back in your own backcourt, but you actually passed the ball back in the frontcourt!
If I don't beat you until you shit, I'll consider you've done it cleanly!
In an instant, five players rushed towards Lin Quan, and this time, they were not only running for the ball, but also for the man! Lin Quan did not stay where he was, but immediately rushed forward along the sideline with the ball.
Ram stuck closely to Lin Quan, not giving him the chance to speed up.
At the same time, Kramer made a fierce tackle, trying to knock Lin Quan down with the ball.
The Spanish fans at the scene couldn't help but exclaim, as if they had already seen the scene of Lin Quan falling to the ground due to injury.
However, facing Kramer's tackle, Lin Quan lightly picked up the ball, kicked it behind Lahm, and then slipped past the sideline, not only avoiding the opponent's tackle, but also avoiding Lahm's blocking.
This clever handling of the situation made the fans at the scene's eyes light up, and they all cheered for him.
Unfortunately, Cross was a little unromantic. He pulled Lin Quan back when he was about to make a breakthrough.
Lin Quan lost his balance and fell to the ground.
The referee then blew the whistle, indicating that Kroos had committed a foul.
At this time, the game time has reached the 44th minute, and there is 1 minute of stoppage time in the first half.
The referee's free kick basically completely extinguished the German team's hope of counterattack.
The Spanish team will definitely make good use of this free kick opportunity, use up the last time of the first half, and not give them any more chances to launch an attack.
To be honest, the position of this free kick was not very good. Not only was it too close to the sideline, but it was also very far from the goal.
But at this time, what else do they need? Even if the referee gave them a free kick in the Spanish backcourt, they would definitely have to plan it well.
Whether or not it can produce results is secondary; the main thing is just wasting time.
Both Xavi's are experienced veteran players. After seeing the referee award a free kick, they walked to the sidelines in a pretentious manner and discussed the free kick tactics with Lin Quan.
"Who will punish me?"
Xabi Alonso glanced at Lin Quan and Xabi and asked.
Alonso is very good at free kicks and has a strong foot. It is most appropriate for him to take this kind of free kick which is very far away from the goal.
"We can devise a strategy!"
Lin Quan took a look at the German players who were ready to fight, and felt that if he just threw the ball into the penalty area, the effect might not be very good.
"What tactics?"
Both Xavi and Alonso looked at him curiously, wondering what kind of ideas this guy had.
"We can do this..."
Lin Quan repeated his thoughts.
After hearing this, their eyes lit up and they both gave a thumbs up.
"I think it's feasible!"
"I'll cover you!"
The three of them quickly distributed the tactics, and finally Alonso stood in front of the football, while Lin Quan and Xavi stood on the left and right sides of the top of the penalty area respectively.
When the German players saw the opponent's position, they couldn't help but doubt in their hearts, thinking that the opponent might not directly cross into the penalty area, but instead use tactical cooperation.
So, they sent two people out of the penalty area to guard Lin Quan and Xavi.
After seeing the German team's choice, Xabi Alonso couldn't help but laugh.
Lin Quan had guessed it right! He took a few steps back, quickly rushed towards the football, and kicked it into the penalty area.
The German players were stunned! The Spaniard actually threw the ball directly into the penalty area! ?
Where is the tactical free kick? It's so unethical!
Xabi Alonso's long passes are known for their precision-guided style. In this case, he was looking for Ramos who was competing for the header in the penalty area.
This is a connection between two Real Madrid players! Ramos jumped high, overpowering the opponent's defender Hummels and grabbing the first landing point.
Hummels is 1.92 meters tall and has excellent heading ability.
Ramos is only 1.84 meters tall, half a head shorter than the opponent.
But he was able to beat Hummels and get the ball. Shui Ye's heading ability has really reached the pinnacle level.
However, when he jumped for this ball, he had a physical confrontation with Hummels, which had a great impact on his strength.
Although Ramos got a step ahead of him in the take-off stage, Hummels still had a way to prevent the opponent from scoring even if he couldn't get the landing point. This is his defensive experience!
As a result, Ramos headed the ball, but the position was not right.
The football hit the crossbar with a clang! When the German fans saw Ramos' header, they all became nervous.
It was the last few seconds of the first half. If the opponent scored another goal, the game would probably end early.
Fortunately, their door frame stood up and protected them once again.
Seeing the ball being blocked by the crossbar, Ramos couldn't help but hug his head, and was so upset that he wanted to pull out all his hair! Damn Hummels, if it weren't for his interference, the ball might have been scored! But this is what defenders do. How can you expect the opponent's defender to watch you shoot and do nothing?
Although Hummels successfully defended, his eyes were full of vigilance when he looked at Ramos.
How come this guy is so good at heading?
Hummels has defended many forwards, many of whom have excellent heading ability.
Although Ramos is not a striker, his heading ability is definitely among the top among these forwards, even in the top three.
Did this guy choose the wrong position? He should play as a striker, not a defender! After Spain's shot went wide, the injury time of the first half was also used up.
The referee then blew the whistle to end the game.
At the end of the first half, Spain temporarily led Germany 1:0.
They only have the last half of the game left to successfully defend their title!
