45+1 minute Riyadh Crescent link breaks
Saudi Arabia's corner kick opportunity on the right side of the penalty area was driven to the right of the penalty area, and Sheikhri's header was deflected into the goal. Saudi Arabia took the lead in first-half stoppage time.
Faraji, who sent corners, and Sheikhri, who scored goals, were teammates in Riyadh Crescent, though Sheikhri spent most of his time on the bench.
Looking back at the frequency of the Chinese team's offensive posture in the first 45 minutes, it is not surprising that such a score is scored.
52nd minute Saw the Saudi goalkeeper!
In the second half, the Chinese team made a substitution adjustment, replacing Arthur Junmin with young player Dai Weijun. Saudi Arabia made a mistake in the backcourt, and after the high-precision wing broke the ball, it was directly stuffed to Zhang Yuning in the middle of the penalty area, who first pushed with his right foot and was touched by the Saudi goalkeeper, Zhang Yuning followed up and pushed again, the ball into the net, but the referee said that the offside was first.
In the 58th minute, Gao Tianyi replaced Liu Binbin to make his debut for the national football team
In the last two round of 12 matches of the national football team, there is an important task, that is, to reserve players of the right age for the next stage of preparation, and to let this part of the players appear as much as possible. The current 23-year-old Gao Tianyi replaced Liu Binbin and staged his national football debut.
81st minute Zhu Chenjie's first goal of the national football team!
High-precision wing crossed the ball to find the right side of the penalty area, and Amri scrambled for handball.
Zhu Chenjie stood on the free throw spot and pushed with his right foot to hit the left side of the goal! The Chinese team tied the score! This is Zhu Chenjie's first national football goal! We watched him, from the nervous youth of the first entry into the national football team to now shoulder the responsibility of key penalties! In the adversity of the national football team, some people are growing!
In the whole game, the Chinese team had few opportunities in the sports war, with a penalty to tie the score, and the Saudi team that has already qualified was drawn, and the national football team without naturalized players was considered to be a success. Whether it is a large-scale adjustment of the starting lineup or several substitutions in the second half, it can be seen that the thinking of the coaching staff of the national football team in these last two round-12 matches has been biased towards the training of the younger generation.
