Perfect Center

Chapter 62 Second half!
The Al Sadd Stadium erupted in cheers as loud as a landslide and tsunami!
Qatari fans wore white cloths and looked confused, as if they were surrendering to Xia Han's performance!

Adani pounded the turf again, and he complained loudly to his teammates: "Can't you three stop him?"

Musa and Yasser were in deep pain because Xia Han started running as fast as lightning and they couldn't keep up with his pace at all!
Cazorla lowered his head in frustration, thinking that perhaps he shouldn't have gone for Ji Xiang.

"Beautiful! The goal was scored!"

"Zheng Zhi's long shot was saved, but Xia Han made the follow-up shot!"

"hat trick!!!"

"Before the game, a fan gave Xia Han this nickname, and it turned out to be the right nickname!"

"This is the best example of Xia Han's sense of smell in front of the goal! Superb offensive awareness and sharp shooting skills!"

"Young player Xia Han's debut was so dazzling!"

"He was killing like crazy! He scored three goals in the first half alone, almost killing the suspense of the game!"

The commentator's tone contained uncontrollable excitement.

Xia Han slid to his knees and rushed to the corner flag area, jumping up with a rising dragon punch!

Thousands of Chinese fans followed Xia Han's punch and cheered even louder!

The cameras on the sidelines faithfully recorded Xia Han's every celebration!
The media reporters were so excited that they were writing down the news of the first half of the game.

In the official live broadcast room, the barrage of comments once again filled the screen! -
【Hat trick in the first half! So cool, can you play 7-up!】
-
[I think we might slow down our attack in the second half and play some healthy football.]
-
【Holy crap!】
-
[This sniffing sense is too strong! 】

On the sidelines, Carreño had an ugly expression on his face. How could he fight back after conceding three goals in the first half?

The Miracle of Istanbul flashed through Carreño’s mind.

After a moment, the thought dispelled. What level of team is Liverpool? What level of team is Qatar, the team he is coaching?

"How can I motivate the players at halftime?" Carreño himself felt hopeless.

On the other side, Perrin excitedly shouted to Xia Han on the court: "Xia, you performed so well today!"

Xia Han turned around and made the gesture of cutting a cake towards Perrin's position, celebrating Perrin's birthday!

The Qatari fans in the stands stood in their seats, the white cloths on their heads swaying gently, and they applauded Xia Han on the field!

"Yesterday was Frenchman Perrin's birthday!"

"He didn't say what birthday present he was expecting. But as the head coach of the Chinese team, we fans all know that he wants a victory!"

"Xia Han's hat trick in the first half almost killed the game!"

"He and his teammates wished Perrin a happy birthday! This move also drew applause from Qatari fans! This is football!"

The fourth official called three minutes of injury time.

The remaining game time is passing quickly!
Beep! Beep~~
Referee Gao Hengjin blew the whistle to end the first half of the game!
The players of the Chinese team could not hide the joy on their faces, while the players of the Qatar team were dejected, covered in dust and walked off the field in extreme frustration.

Perrin stood on the sidelines, looked at Xia Han with satisfaction, and gave Xia Han an affectionate hug.

The spotlights on the sidelines keep flashing!

This scene was successfully frozen!
"Xia! Your performance is simply amazing!"

"And everyone else, you performed very well! Zheng's long shots were very dangerous. You can try more in the second half. The cross from the wing was very good, and it can provide ammunition for Xia!"

"Pass the ball to Xia, this is our core tactic!" Back in the locker room, Perrin encouraged the players to make more attempts and take more actions!

In the Qatar team's locker room on the other side.

The overall atmosphere is very quiet and dull.

Carreño slammed the tactical board hard and shouted to the players who were looking down:

"Don't be so depressed! Are you willing to lose the game in such a humiliating way?!"

"Even if we lose, we have to show our bravery! Since three people can't defend against Xia on the opposite side, then we can use four people. If four people are not enough, then we can use five people!"

"We lost three goals in the first half. The first and second goals were caused by your header, Hashir, and the coordination errors between you and Adani, Yasser. It was not right!"

"Apart from these two errant goals, the other team only scored one goal! So don't be too scared! Be careful not to get distracted! Stay focused! We have to score at least one goal!"

After Carreño vented his inner thoughts, the Qatari players, led by Haidos, stood up in unison and shouted: "Come on! We can score a goal!"

The halftime break passed in a flash.

"Good evening, audience friends! Welcome back!"

"You are about to watch a match of the top 40 of the Asian qualifiers of the Russian World Cup!"

"The game is being played in Doha, the capital of Qatar! The second half of the match between Qatar and China!"

"Qatar coach Carreño made the first substitution!"

"Akram Afif for Asadallah!"

"This is a young Qatari player! His past performances were pretty good! He looks a bit like the Egyptian Messi Salah of Roma!"

“We can look forward to his performance!”

As soon as the game started, Qatar seized the opportunity and started attacking!
Afif, who had just come on as a substitute, made a crazy run down the wing and made a sharp breakthrough!
He shook off Zhang Chengdong unreasonably and sent a high-quality cross. Under the pressure of Mei Fang, Uruguayan striker Sebastian jumped high and headed the ball fiercely!
Wang Dalei reacted quickly and made a heroic save!

With a push of his hands, he kicked the football out steadily!

"As soon as Afif came on the pitch, he created a dangerous attack! He injected Qatar with offensive vitality!"

"Powerful header from Sebastian!"

"Wang Dalei! Good save! He saved this powerful header!"

Wang Dalei rolled over, roared, and patted his chest to encourage his teammates!
Zhang Linpeng got the first landing point of the football, took a few steps, and sent a medium-long pass!

The football flew off the ground and accurately found Cai Huikang!
Cai Huikang stopped and dribbled, then accelerated to break through Said's defense. Looking at the large space in front of him, he dribbled forward with the ball!
Hassan quickly stepped forward to intercept Cai Huikang.

Cai Huikang and Zheng Zhi's wall-to-wall pass made a one-two, bypassing Hassan's interception!

Looking at Xia Han who was closely guarded by three people, Zheng Zhi made an exquisite medium- to long-distance pass!

"The Chinese team's counterattack!"

"Cai Huikang and Zheng Zhi's smooth wall-to-wall cooperation!"

"Zheng Zhi held the ball and observed, then made a very accurate pass! He flew to the right side and found Zheng Long who was running in!"

After receiving the ball, Zheng Long cut inside and shook off Musa who was coming back to defend!
A shot from a wide angle!
This marked the beginning of China’s offensive in the second half!
