Midfielder Ruler

"Ouch, ouch, ouch—"

As Tang Zheng swung his left foot for a long shot 37 meters away from the goal, the Chinese fans in the Luzhniki Stadium created a deafening roar, which quickly spread from one stand to the entire stadium.

Dier, Maguire, and Stones locked their eyes on the football flying towards the goal at high speed and could not take their eyes away.

Goalkeeper Pickford had no idea that Tang Zheng would use his unused left foot thirty-seven meters away from the goal. His reaction was half a beat too slow. However, Pickford did not sit still and realized that the situation was very dangerous. Move quickly toward the right side of your body, taking three steps and then two steps.

"-Jordan Pickford!!"

exclaimed British Sky commentator Andy Gray.

"Oh oh oh oh——"

The England fans in the stands felt their hearts in their throats, gasped, and couldn't believe it.

There are even devout Christians who close their eyes, hoping that the God they believe in can step forward at this time and reject Tang Zheng's long shot.

After finishing the shot, Tang Zheng soared into the air, his eyes following the football in the air.

This ball...is there!

Tang Zheng, who was confident in his long-range shot, couldn't help but get excited. If this goal was scored, it would be a sure win!

The semi-finals of the World Cup should have been the end for the Chinese team, but... now it seems that it is not the end!

England is not a traditional strong team, and the Chinese team, whose overall strength is not much different, has every chance of defeating England and advancing to the finals.

So even if the Chinese team loses Yan Junling and head coach Lippi in the semi-finals, it still retains the hope of advancing to the World Cup finals!

Central 5 commentator He Weila raised his voice: "Tang Zheng——"

British Sky commentator Martin Taylor shouted: "Don -" as partner Andy Gray exclaimed

Tang's father, Tang's mother, Zhao Lina, and the milky-voiced Tang Qingqing who were in the VIP seats of the Luzhniki Stadium all subconsciously stood up in the fanatical atmosphere, staring closely at the football flying towards the England penalty area.

Countless Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV were in high spirits, full of passion and fighting spirit, and could not help but raise their arms high.

"Oops!!"

Pickford, who had completely thrown his body out, was shocked. He suddenly realized that his inherent height disadvantage was fully exposed at this time.

At this time, he was very helpless. He was still only a little short of being kicked out by Tang Zheng, only two or three centimeters.

However, his body couldn't use any more strength, so he could only watch the football and continue to move forward...

"Oh oh oh——"

The ball passed over the fingertips of Pickford's outstretched right arm in the astonished eyes of all England fans at the scene, and then hit the inner net on the left side of the goal.

Until the potential energy ends, the football falls back to the ground due to the influence of gravity.

However, no one at the Luzhniki Stadium cared about the football at this time, and the live director's close-up shot immediately showed Tang Zheng.

At the same time, German Sky commentator Marcel Leif suddenly stretched out his voice: "gooooooooooooooooal——"

"The ball is in! The ball is in!!"

Central 5 commentator He Wei instantly fell into madness, and his heart was surging: "Incredible Tang Zheng! Then thunder was heard everywhere! Tang Zheng was nearly 40 meters away from the goal and shot a cold arrow to break Pickford's guarded goal, helping the Chinese team win the world championship Go ahead in the 116th minute of the game!"

"2:1!!"

"This goal is incredible!" Commentator Xu Yang was a little incoherent and eloquent: "It's so beautiful! After 115 minutes of silence, Tang Zheng broke out again and used a ground-breaking long-range shot to help the Chinese team overtake the score! At the same time, this goal is also Tang Zheng’s seventh goal in this World Cup! He has also become the player with the most goals in the past four World Cups!”

"Oh-my-god!!"

When British Sky commentator Andy Gray lost his voice, guest commentator Martin Taylor took the lead: "The omnipotent Don scored a wonderful long-range shot in the 116th minute of the game! It was amazing! incredible,

Moreover, this long-range shot was still with his unused left foot, which is incredible! God's work! ! "

※※※

In a frantic atmosphere, Tang Zheng, who fell back to the ground, spread his arms, grinned, and ran all the way to the camera on the right sideline of the offense, raising his arms and shouting.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch—"

The passionate Chinese fans became even more crazy under Tang Zheng's instigation, creating even louder cheers.

Coupled with the echoes from the Chinese fans in the Fan Square outside the Luzhniki Stadium, the entire Luzhniki Stadium was like boiling water, with deafening waves of loud cheers coming one after another, as if they were inexhaustible.

Affected by Tang Zheng's goal, Chinese players such as Ye Erfan, Hao Junmin, and Sun Jingbo ran to Tang Zheng's area to vent the huge pressure caused by the goal at the end of overtime.

Even the Chinese fans in front of the bench crossed the entire stadium to enjoy the emotional explosion brought about by the goal with their teammates.

Head coaches Lippi and Yan Junling hugged each other excitedly in the stands, and then joined the Chinese fans at the scene to create a fanatical game atmosphere.

Thousands of miles away in China, Chinese fans in the capital Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Chengdu and other places fell into crazy celebrations. The whole of China seemed to have entered a trembling space the moment Tang Zheng scored, and the whole country was boiling. .

Messi, Neymar, who were already on vacation, and Cristiano Ronaldo, who had just started vacation, watched Tang Zheng celebrating wildly in the broadcast with mixed emotions.

There is envy and jealousy, but mostly depression.

In terms of overall strength, the overall strength of Tang Zheng's Chinese team is not even as good as Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal. Compared with Argentina and Brazil, the gap is even greater. However, this is often the case in football matches. The stronger team may not be the best. Able to go further.

Tang Zheng and the Chinese players vented their goals in a fanatical atmosphere. The English players shown by the on-site director generally had ugly and heavy expressions on their faces.

Goalkeeper Pickford was even beating the turf in dissatisfaction. It was just a small difference, otherwise... he could reject Tang Zheng's long shot and try to keep the goal.

But there are no ifs in this world, almost is almost.

Captain Harry Kane pursed his lips, put his hands on his hips, raised his head, and looked at the sky in Moscow. A deep feeling of powerlessness spread throughout his body.

The goal at the end of overtime was completely equal to the winner.

The Chinese players' physical exertion is very high, and their teammates are not much better.

Including Harry Kane's own physical fitness has dropped significantly, and physical confrontation has dropped significantly.

It is very difficult to attack the Chinese team's back line with high morale in this situation.

England head coach Southgate frowned, but he had no choice but to make all four adjustments. With no cards in hand, he could only rely on the individual performance of the players on the field.

However, at this stage of the game, team morale is a problem.

In addition, the morale of the Chinese team that scored a goal will definitely be boosted. It will be difficult to equalize the score under such circumstances.

"The seventh goal in the World Cup, the omnipotent Don!"

"Who would have thought that Tang, who had been silent for more than a hundred minutes, would suddenly explode? Sorry, I didn't expect it either, but... this is where Tang's ability lies!"

"England, the favorite to advance to the final, suffered a fatal blow from Tang at the last moment of overtime! 2:1, the Chinese team took the lead!!"

"I can responsibly say that the English have no chance. The Chinese team will achieve great results again and advance to the finals of this World Cup!!"

…

While the Chinese players celebrated their goals, the commentators in the commentary box shouted loudly.

※※※

British Sky commentator Andy Gray finally recovered and said in a deep voice: "The English will pay the price for their arrogance. Don told us at the end of overtime that you and the time cannot take it lightly, even if it is far enough from the goal. You have to go all out for long shots..."

However, the England fans sitting in front of the TV were in no mood to listen to Andy Gray. They were trapped in their own endless sadness.

I was thinking about it before the game, but I never imagined that the Chinese team might beat the powerful England in overtime!

This...is entirely possible in theory!

Whether it was the Chinese fans at the scene or in front of the TV, they were as excited as children, venting their emotions crazily, even if their throats were hoarse, they didn't care.

Once it defeats England, the Chinese team will set a new World Cup record.

finals!

Only the Korean SBS TV commentator and a large number of Korean fans were unwilling to accept it. With the Korean team eliminated from the group early, the Chinese team might actually create a new Asian team's performance record in the World Cup.

There are three minutes left in overtime, which means the Chinese team is likely to win the game.

After all, England's physical fitness has declined very seriously at the end of the game, and it is very difficult to reorganize the offensive that threatens Zeng Cheng's goal.

The Chinese team's celebration lasted for nearly a minute. If it weren't for referee Cakir's reminder, it is estimated that the Chinese players would have celebrated the goal even further.

There were two red cards in the quarter-finals, which meant that Yan Junling and Lippi missed the semi-finals. The best ideal result of the domestic media and fans is acceptable as long as the Chinese team does not count.

But... captain Tang Zheng once again stepped forward like a legend and succeeded in one fell swoop.

Facing the possibility of the final, Chinese players naturally find it difficult to suppress their excitement.

"Uuuuuu——"

The Chinese players who celebrated the goal were still unsatisfied, and the Chinese fans in the stands were even more so, so they booed in unison at the inhumane referee Cakir.

Cakir appeared on the broadcast screen with a wry smile on his face, but he was responsible and had no choice.

As Tang Zheng and his teammates walked back, they did not forget to play the role that a captain should play. He shouted in a fanatical atmosphere: "Brothers, the game is not completely over yet. We cannot take anything lightly. Now The momentum is on our side, and I firmly believe that we can have the last laugh, but... the premise is that everyone can maintain 100% or even 120% concentration!"

Listening to Tang Zheng's words, the teammates nodded lightly in agreement.

Now that the game has come, they are only one step away from promotion. There are too many examples in world football of extreme joy leading to tragedy. They have to walk on thin ice and be cautious.

Commentator He Wei couldn't help praising Tang Zheng despite his hoarse voice: "The captain is the captain! When everyone is celebrating the go-ahead goal, stick to your heart and don't let the ecstasy interfere with your normal mind. I think... we The young man will definitely have the last laugh!”

"The finals are coming!"

This is the commentator Xu Yang who couldn't help shouting.

Before the start of the game, England head coach Southgate took the less confident captain Harry Kane and Loftus-Cheek for a face-to-face meeting and explained the tactical arrangements in the last few minutes.

Although there are less than three minutes left, as long as the offense is done well, the time needed is enough!

All four substitutions and adjustments made by both sides of the game were used up, and the rest of the game could only rely on the 22 people on the field to fight. However, Southgate and Madaloni both have subordinates to their respective teams, which means that There are still variables in the final minutes.

Harry Kane kicked off the ball in the center circle, and after two or three passes, the football came to Loftus-Cheek's feet.

When Chick was about to break through in the middle, he suddenly felt danger and instinctively jumped up.

It's just...control of the football team has changed hands.

"Tang Zheng!"

"Don——"

Central 5 commentator He Wei and British Sky commentator Andy Gray simultaneously shouted: "Beautiful interception!"

Immediately, Andy Gray changed his voice: "Don's performance was phenomenal, completely dominating the game! Our players were lost. They obviously haven't recovered from the fatal blow, but opportunities will not be left to the unprepared. , there is still time, as long as we can score before the end of the game, we still have a chance to advance to the World Cup finals."

It's just that it gives people a feeling of lack of confidence.

Tang Zheng, who had cut off the football, was not in a hurry to pass the ball forward. He passed the ball with Hao Junmin and Li Kui three times in a row, forcing the high-pressing England players to retreat to their own half, and then delayed the game more reasonably.

Vardy, who was very anxious, lost control of his emotions. He did not stop his pressing and brought down the central defender Zhang Linpeng who had already released the ball.

Vardy's movements are very powerful, and they appear to be very lethal. In fact, they are not very dangerous, but Zhang Linpeng will not waste this excellent opportunity.

Zhang Linpeng, who fell to the ground in pain, not only consumed game time, but also caused Vardy to receive a yellow card.

When the game restarted, the time had reached 119 minutes, and there was less than one minute left before the end of the game.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch -"

The fanatical atmosphere at Luzhniki Stadium reached the most frenetic stage of the game.

The Chinese fans made a huge roar, and the English fans who hoped that the team would equalize the score even more so, making the competition for the right to the World Cup finals enter a fierce stage.

Soon, the football was picked up by goalkeeper Pickford, who quickly signaled his teammates to press forward.

The Chinese players did not press, but quickly retreated into their own half.

Time is getting shorter and shorter. They know that they can win the game as long as they hold on to the score. At this time, there is no need to press anymore and just do their job well.

All members retreat to ensure the stability of the defensive system as much as possible!

Facing England's attack, every Chinese fan felt a little nervous...

Let me reiterate, the Chinese team will not win the championship, but just hopes to refresh the best performance of an Asian team in the World Cup created by the South Korean team.
