Russell landmark stadium.

The stadium that can accommodate more than 80000 people is full, and there are more than 30000 Chinese fans!

The Chinese fans who came to Qatar, even if they were selling iron from the pot, also tried to buy a ticket to today's 14 finals, because this is probably a rare opportunity in their life to witness the Chinese team's semi-finals on the World Cup stage!

Coming to the world cup, there are 32 strongest teams from all continents in the world. With the event, there are only 8 teams left!

Today, in the first game of the top eight, the Chinese team met the English team. From the side, the Chinese team has at least achieved good results in the top eight of this world cup!

Even if Chinese fans tease that this is the Chinese team vs the European Chinese team, it does not hinder the enthusiasm of Chinese fans!

Since winning the local world cup, England has no outstanding performance on the World Cup stage. The last World Cup was a sad battle. Unexpectedly, it passed all the way to the top four. This competition is naturally expected!

The previous four games were smooth sailing, and no opponent could cause trouble for England, while today's encounter with China was considered a signing by the whole country.

But when the game was about to begin, all the English and Chinese fans watching the game couldn't help getting nervous!

Of course, they have a strong mentality of worrying about gain and loss.

I hope the team can go further!

Even for Chinese fans, this is tantamount to a dream!

But the Chinese team is not without the capital to create miracles!

When the starting players of the two teams stood in line for the kick-off ceremony, everyone on the sidelines looked solemn.

"CCTV, CCTV, good evening, everyone. Welcome to the first game of the 14 finals of the 2022 Qatar world cup. The top eight game between China and England is about to begin.

I believe many fans are still immersed in the great joy of China's breaking into the top eight of the world cup.

The Chinese team has made a self breakthrough in this world cup and reached the top eight of the world cup more than expected!

It can be said that none of us will be dissatisfied with the performance of the Chinese team, but since we have the opportunity to reach the top four of the world cup, why don't we strive for it?

I believe that the legendary Young Marshal situ Yunbing's team is always full of enthusiasm for victory and has great ambition for progress!

Now let's look at the starting lineup of the two teams.

The Chinese team started 433 today

Goalkeeper: Shen Jingjie.

Guards: Abdu haimiti, Bai yuanfan, Cheng Renjun, Li Lei.

Midfield: Zhang Zhibang, Zhao Fenghua, Huang Bozhou.

Forwards: Luo Xin, Wu Lei, Luo Cheng.

The Chinese team still uses the most common main lineup of this world cup.

England also started 433

Goalkeeper: Pickford.

Defenders: Arnold, stone, Maguire, chilwell.

Midfield: Buckley, Ali, Delphi.

Strikers: Sterling, Rushford, Sancho.

It is worth noting that England's main center Harry Kane was injured and didn't start, but I don't know whether he can substitute.

All English players come from the Premier League, while Bai yuanfan in the Chinese team has played in the Premier League for one and a half years. It can be said that Bai yuanfan has more experience in fighting Premier League players than other teammates.

Well, the game will start right away. Let's see if the Chinese team can make another success today! "

With the referee's whistle, the Chinese team took the lead in kickoff.

England's front line carefully pressed forward to counter grab. After the Chinese team kicked off, they fell down in the backcourt. It seemed that they had no desire to attack. Even the forwards stayed in the middle and backcourt.

The England team situ Yunbing is very familiar. Except for his three disciples, other players play for his opponents who once coached the Red Army.

There must be some shortcomings, but it will not appear to be a weakness relative to the strength of the Chinese team.

Against England, the Chinese team must become smarter, not blindly fight against the English team and grab the rhythm!

It can be said that England is the top team in Europe under the fast-paced playing method. What is slightly insufficient is the creativity of the midfield. If there is a top-level organization and innovative midfield second only to de Brauner in the midfield, the attack of England will really become a world-class. After all, in terms of speed and technology, Stirling in the peak period plus increasingly mature Sancho and Rushford, No less than other technical teams.

When the Chinese team contracted the formation and passed the ball in the backcourt, Southgate looked puzzled with his hands on his hips on the sidelines.

He knew that the Chinese team had a hand in delaying the game, but it was after the Chinese team took the lead!

Maybe he studies too few games of the Chinese team.

If the time passes to the Copa America final more than three years ago, sosgate will know that even in the case of a draw, the Chinese team can safely control the ball, delay time and consume their opponents.

This is why the South American media are deeply disgusted and ashamed of China's victory.

If the Chinese team held high the offensive football flag and defeated the Brazilian team, the South American media will take this as the outbreak point to criticize the South American heroes for their lack of progress and skills, but the Chinese team's playing method can be labeled as "anti football", which makes the South American media unable to recognize their victory and their championship.

Now what Southgate thinks is that the Chinese team wants to consume all the time. The English fans immediately booed to put pressure on the Chinese team, but the Chinese fans cheered against the boos of the English team!

Five minutes after the game, the Chinese team fell down continuously in the backcourt, and even the winger retreated to the depth of the backcourt to help pass the ball. The English striker and Ali were fooled around, so Southgate couldn't sit still.

He knows that situ Yunbing is wasting time. There is a certain gap between the strong and the weak. England certainly does not want to enter overtime, let alone hand over its fate to the penalty shoot out. You know, the history of England's penalty shoot out is absolutely dark.

Southgate made a gesture on the sidelines and ordered the team to press the whole court!

He believes the team can do better than Mexico in the whole game, because the rhythm of the Premier League is always fighting for every inch of land!

Anyway, England doesn't want to let the Chinese team waste time. If it is really defeated by the Chinese team in the tug of war, it will be convinced to lose. But if it is so consumed by the Chinese team, whether it is before the penalty shoot out or finally sneaked by the Chinese team and lost the ball, England can't accept it.

After the three lions on the spot received sosgate's instructions, they quickly launched the whole court pressing tactics against the Chinese team.

In the 8th minute of the game, the Chinese team finally launched a fast break from the back court. From the beginning of the game to now, the ball control rate of the Chinese team is 100%!

England players have never even touched the ball!

When Sterling pressed Li Lei, Li Lei passed the ball sideways to Huang Bozhou who took the initiative to run to meet him. Ali followed, and Huang Bozhou made a short pass.

Zhao Fenghua, who pulled the edge, did not wait for Buckley to get close, but sent it out obliquely with one foot close to the ground.

The football rolled to the left of the midfield. Luo Cheng pushed forward quickly after taking the ball. Arnold grabbed it decisively. Luo Cheng quickly sent the ball obliquely to find Wu Lei.

But stone's initiative to preempt the blocking made Wu Lei unable to stop the ball and England broke the ball!

They finally met football!

The England fans in the stands were so happy that it was really weird.

It's like England scored a goal!

After stone broke the ball, he quickly passed the ball to Delphi, which was the nearest passing target to him.

When Delphi was holding the ball, someone from the side came to steal it unexpectedly!

Rosin!

He immediately shifted the ball to complete the Dodge, but the next second he saw Zhao Fenghua cut the ball with a flying shovel!

Delphi was unable to control the ball and changed direction. As a result, he was robbed by Zhao Fenghua's fierce flying shovel!

Southgate turned pale on the sidelines!

The Chinese team doesn't mean to be conservative at all!

When they started attacking, it was accompanied by a wave of front court counter robbery!

The front pressure of the formation is very obvious!

The football shoveled out by Zhao Fenghua was controlled by Wu Lei. Stone came forward to counter rob. Wu Lei knocked the ball back obliquely and sent it to Luoxin's running line.

When rosin quickly pushed forward to face Maguire, he could feel that Maguire would also choose fierce closing down!

This is the world cup top eight!

There is no courtesy before soldiers!

The opening is a highly aggressive defense!

So Luo Xin resolutely sent out a straight plug with one foot on the ground!

The football rolled through the space between Maguire and Stoner. Stoner and Maguire stopped and turned around. Suddenly, they saw Luo Cheng cutting in the middle quickly!

The ball has basically broken through the England defence!

Only Arnold is still fast following and defending!

Arnold, in situ Yunbing's eyes, is the best right back in the world football world, which comes from his ability to read and organize the game.

Of course, he still has flaws in defense, but it doesn't affect him to become the best right back in the world.

Arnold never let Luo Cheng get rid of him.

When Luo Cheng turned the ball in the middle of the front of the restricted area and wanted to kill in the right rib of the restricted area, Arnold boldly chose to put the shovel!

He didn't break the ball, but just to destroy Luo Cheng's foot ball!

He succeeded!

The toe first touched the ball and hit the ball out of the bottom line, while Luo Cheng kicked his leg and then tripped to the ground.

All the Chinese fans are making a voice to put pressure on the referee!

Penalty!

However, the referee did not whistle, and Chinese fans are looking forward to var reminding the referee of major disputes!

But until the Chinese team was ready to kick a corner, they couldn't wait for the prompt of var.

It seems that Arnold did not foul the ball.

Southgate breathed out a deep breath on the sideline. It really made his scalp numb just now!

The Chinese team suddenly formed a threat offensive!

Obviously, situ Yunbing still has a certain design for the tactics of today's game!
