The members of the coaching staff and the national team managers all ran to the sidelines and clenched their fists in celebration. However, at this time, Perrin grabbed his two assistant coaches and made final tactical arrangements. Replace Zhang Xizhe and replace him with Cai Huikang, a pure engineering midfielder who is very representative in domestic football and a defensive midfielder.
In the last ten minutes, Australia also replaced forward Matthew Laiki, and they could not accept losing.
In the final stage, the Chinese team was almost on defense. Yi Zhe put tackles and interceptions at the front of the penalty area again and again. Although it was still steady, it made all the fans in front of the TV watch on tenterhooks.
"Press up! Press up, brother Zhe!"
"Don't be a coward, do it again!"
But Yi Zhe would not take such a risk. The reason was very simple. The teammates around him just wanted to hold on, and the rhythm on the field slowed down. There was no teammate in front of him to speed up. Yi Zhe tried to speed up the rhythm, but was defeated by four Australian players. Thanks to Yi Zhe's excellent counterattack ability, otherwise a sharp frontcourt counterattack would have come from the bug he left.
All eyes are watching the time, passing by minute by second. Australia's formation has all pressed forward, and Yi Zhe is almost connecting the front and backcourts with passes one after another under the crazy siege of a group of yellow jerseys.
Perrin has also been staring at the big screen in the center of the court.
Eighty-seven minutes!
Eighty-eight minutes!
Eighty-nine minutes!
The game has entered the last minute, and the fourth official is ready to raise the stoppage time sign. At this time, Perrin uses up the last substitution place, and Yang Xu will be replaced by Han Chao.
But now no one expects any tactics from the Chinese team, because time is our friend!
Australia seized this opportunity and launched a crazy final counterattack. A long pass from the midfield into the penalty area was directly punched out by Wang Dalei. Yi Zhe hit the midfielder with a big kick from the outside, then turned around and competed with Jedinak for speed. The Villa midfielder, who had been hung up by Yi Zhe for the whole game, could only reach out and pull Yi Zhe hard. The referee finally showed him a second yellow card. Two yellow cards turned into one red and he was sent off. However, Yi Zhe was sent off due to The body rushed forward with inertia, rolled around, and then fell straight to the ground.
"This is Yi Zhe's final contribution to the Chinese team in this game! Jedinak, who had been pestering him for the whole game, finally sent him off. Yi Zhe almost struggled until he was physically exhausted. From the Champions League final to today's Brisbane, We all know what kind of season Yi Zhe has experienced, but now everything is coming to an end, the last minute of injury time!"
The Australian players collectively pressed the referee to protest that Yi Zhe deliberately delayed the game, but the referee ignored it and signaled the Chinese team doctor to enter the field.
The fans in front of the TV watched the time passing by, feeling extremely excited for the first time.
"Hahaha! Look, he's in a hurry! Tu'ao is in a hurry!"
"Brother Zhe is awesome! Take a good rest, hahaha!"
"Well, although I feel that Brother Zhe's behavior is a bit unscrupulous for the existence of the football king level. But why are we anxious every time? We should let them have a taste of this!"
"Damn it, I was almost asked to pull out a 40-meter sword upstairs. It's time for Brother Zhe to use the essence of La Masia. You are a fool in the rich youth training camp!"
"Barcelona fans left the stadium in tears..."
Yi Zhe slowly got up. The game time had already expired, but the referee still gave the Australian one last chance to attack. Longo tried to quickly distribute the ball to the wing, but Yi Zhe quickly moved over and grabbed the ball in front of the opponent. Bigfoot drove the ball back into the backcourt.
"Yi Zhe! Beautiful save! No time! No time!"
Huge cheers instantly filled the entire stadium, and at this time the referee Shukla blew his long whistle and placed his finger in the circle.
competition is over!

The dust has settled!

“Awesome!

"ah!

In major cities across the country, all fans watching the game cheered in unison.
At the food stall, Zhao Xiong and a group of brothers hugged each other tightly, and they all cried.
"Brother Zhe is awesome!

"
"Brother Zhe is awesome!

"
Several people howled wildly, and Zhao Xiong shouted excitedly into the store: "Brothers, you can eat and drink as you like, I'm here to treat you today! Boss, another twenty skewers of kidneys!"
】
The boss excitedly rushed out of the store and gave two bottles of beer to all the tables who were cheering wildly. He responded cheerfully: "Free of charge! Free of charge! All purchases today are free of charge!"
The food stalls are the liveliest place, with rows of folding tables and fans cheering wildly. Even if they don't know each other, they just grab bottles and toast to each other.
On TV, He Wei looked at the Chinese team players and coaching staff who rushed into the field and occupied the court, his voice choked up.
"Congratulations to the Chinese team! It's not easy, we qualified! We can go to Russia!
!
Does this moment dream back to the Wulihe Stadium on October 7, 2001? We once thought it was the pinnacle of the national team, but we did not expect that Chinese football would fall into boundless darkness in the following years. How many fans turned away, but there should be More fans stick around to this day. But congratulations to these fans who persisted in the trough, and finally the clouds cleared and the moon came out. We waited for Yi Zhe, who made everything full of hope. We waited for a strong enough Chinese team, congratulations to the boys! This night is the best gift to all Chinese fans. Tonight is wonderful, and tomorrow will be even better! "
In the hot pot restaurant, Yi Gang drank a large glass of wine. Some of the young colleagues around him had already yelled, and some were still crying with excitement. The atmosphere in the store was in a state of crazy hugging and cheering (high) In the middle of the tide, the sound of firecrackers was heard outside the window.
"Come on, come on, don't cry, we respect editor-in-chief Yi! Thank you to the editor-in-chief for bringing us Yi Zhe!"
Everyone laughed and stood up and raised their glasses to Yi Gang. Yi Gang laughed, poured a full glass, turned around and raised it to face the TV screen: "Why are you honoring me? This is a great event for all the fans!" Respect the national team and our motherland!"
"cheers!"
"cheers!"
Everyone picked up their glasses and drank in one gulp.
At this time, the first round of carnival had begun in the national team's locker room. Yi Zhe was sprayed with champagne all over his head and face by his teammates, and some people like Wang Dalei had fun, stripping off their clothes and standing on the bench to play. After starting to rap, Zheng Zhi was the last one to walk into the locker room, with emotion in his eyes. The last time he failed to catch up with the national team was in his youth. Unexpectedly, he had already reached the twilight of his career, but luckily he caught the last train.
Perrin stood in the middle, sprayed everyone with champagne around the entire locker room, and said excitedly to everyone: "I want to thank you, gentlemen! I am very lucky to coach the Chinese team. As your coach, I can work with you." It’s an honor for you to compete in the World Cup together! You did it, and all the fans in China will cheer for your performance tonight! So, celebrate to your heart’s content, gentlemen! Let’s go to Russia and have a big fight!”
