Chapter 131 Against Chile 3
This attack fully illustrates how sharp Wales' counterattack is at this moment.

As a result, Chile had to invest heavily in the defense.

Once again, it affected his offense.

Slowly the situation on the court was controlled by Wales. In the eyes of many fans, the victory of this game is not far from Wales, and the rest is nothing more than time.

The Welsh players on the field lived up to everyone's expectations.

The deadlock on the field was quickly broken.

In the 29th minute of the game, David Vaughan suddenly dribbled forward and attracted the attention of the opponent, and suddenly made a very strange pass. The ball actually had some rotation during the flight. , So the Chilean defensive player made a mistake in judgment, and Aranguiz, who was stuck in a favorable position, actually fell to the top.

The football flew over the opponent's head, and Dabao, who was blocked by Aranguis, reacted very quickly. After quickly completing his turn, he accelerated towards the football.

He poked the ball before the opponent's player, and then passed the ball alone in an attempt to get rid of the opponent, but this time Dabao failed to pass the opponent's defender as he wished.

Obviously the opponent knew very well that if Dabao was allowed to pass, it would be too much of a threat to the goal.

So when Dabao was about to pass the opponent, he directly brought Dabao down.

Beep!The referee's whistle sounded in time, and then he ran over quickly, separated the players on both sides and made a gesture for the Chilean players to retreat. There was no problem with this penalty, so the referee also decisively stopped the game, and then A free kick was awarded to Wales about 29 meters from the goal.

In the previous group matches, Dabao had successfully staged a free kick to score a goal, so after seeing such a penalty, the Welsh fans in the stands also cheered excitedly.

Dabao took the football from the referee, and then stood on the penalty spot. After placing the football, he measured the pace of the run-up.

In the end, Dabao naturally did not disappoint the fans.

A very classic round-moon scimitar reappeared in the World Cup. Chilean goalkeeper Bravo couldn't even make a save, and the football had already entered the goal.

1-0, in the 32nd minute of the first half, Dabao used a free kick to help Wales gain a one-goal lead.

After scoring the goal, Dabao also ran to the sidelines and hugged Koeman to celebrate.

The Welsh fans in the stands overwhelmed Chile for the first time. At this moment, they already saw their hope of entering the quarterfinals.

This goal was also the first and last goal of both sides in the first half. After Wales took the lead, Chile began to strengthen its defense. Of course, this strengthening was at the expense of its own offense.

So in the rest of the first half, although Wales still controlled the situation, they couldn't find any good opportunities. Finally, when the time came for the first half, the referee blew the end of the first half. The whistle blew, and Wales returned to half-time with a one-goal lead.

"Mr. He, what do you think of the first half of the match between the two sides?"

"It should be said that Koeman's temporary change really maximized Dabao's power. In the first half, Dabao actually played the role of a free midfielder. Both offensive and defensive ends helped Wales very much. Similarly, I guess the consumption is also the biggest one. In the whole first half, Dabao almost sprinted all over the field. During the defense, Sanchez, the core of the opponent, was defended. It’s just to seize the opportunity. From the current point of view, Koeman’s change of formation is successful. On the other hand, on the Chilean side, Sampaoli’s response has some problems. Obviously, his research on Wales is not thorough enough. After that, there is no effective way to deal with it.”

"Dabao's condition is indeed very good. This should be his fifth goal in this World Cup."

"Yes, the fifth one. It has surpassed Germany's Muller and Brazil's Neymar to take the top scorer list. However, the one-eighth knockout match between Brazil and Germany has not yet been played. It still needs to be watched. To be honest, Dabao is definitely the biggest contributor to Wales' ability to play to the point where they are now."

"However, the competition for the top scorer list in this World Cup is indeed very fierce. Now Dabao has 5 goals. Behind him are Neymar, Muller and Messi with 4 goals."

"Yes, and these are the favorites to win the championship."

"Teacher He, who do you think regrets seeing Dabao's performance now?"

"Do you still have to guess? It must be Manchester United. I saw a piece of news in Europe yesterday. It is said that many giants have sent tentative offers to Inter Milan. It is for Dabao. Among them are Real Madrid and Barcelona. The top giants, but it seems that they have been rejected by Inter Milan, obviously they are absolutely impossible to leave, and it is said that Van Gaal may become the new head coach of Manchester United after the end of this World Cup."

While the two commentators were chatting about some football news related to Dabao, the 15-minute break in midfield also came to an end, and the players from both sides returned to the field again.

Soon at the referee's whistle, the second half of the game began.

Neither Chile nor Wales made any changes to their lineups, but Wales still chose a defensive counterattack tactic. After the game started, Chile also launched a crazy attack into the hinterland of Wales. Obviously After making adjustments during the halftime break, Sampaoli was unwilling to give up the opportunity to advance.

However, for the opponent's opening attack, it is obvious that Koeman has fully considered.

So despite the opponent's very fierce offensive, Wales' defense was still very compact, and the players were very confident in dealing with it.

But Chile is completely different. Being unable to attack for a long time has taken a big blow to the morale of the players who had managed to gather and improve during the halftime break. In addition, this kind of crazy attack consumes a lot of physical energy.

So after 10 minutes in the second half, Chile's offensive gradually declined, and Koeman noticed the change in rhythm, and immediately shouted at the players on the field and gestured towards Dabao.

After seeing Koeman's gesture, Dabao also conveyed Koeman's instructions to his teammates.
