As Wu Lei successfully took the ball and lightning-fast broke into the Qatar Team's penalty area, the entire stadium seemed to fall into a suffocating silence.
The air was filled with tension and anticipation, every heart taut for the moment about to arrive.
The faces of the Qatar Team players were filled with terror and helplessness at this moment, as they watched Wu Lei weave through the penalty area like a ghost.
Just moments ago, they were controlling the rhythm of the offense, but now they had become passive spectators, unable to stop the China Team's sudden threat.
Wu Lei's gaze was firm and cold, as if he had already seen the ball hit the back of the net.
He chose not to dribble excessively or showboat, but instead aimed directly for the goal.
He powerfully pushed the ball towards the goal, and the ball arced sharply through the air, heading straight for the top corner.
Although the Qatar goalkeeper, Shib, made a desperate save, the ball seemed to have eyes, cleverly slipping under his arm and into the goal.
At this moment, the entire stadium seemed to explode, with cheers, screams, and applause rising and falling, merging into a deafening ocean.
The China Team players celebrated wildly, hugging each other, high-fiving, their faces beaming with indescribable joy.
Wu Lei became the center of attention, raising his arms high and letting out a triumphant roar, as if proclaiming his victory to the world.
The moment after Wu Lei scored, the entire stadium seemed to ignite, an explosion of cheers, screams, and applause intertwined, forming an irresistible wave of frenzy.
The live audience was like ignited flames, wildly waving their national flags and banners, their smiles blossoming like flowers, their eyes sparkling with tears of excitement.
And the fans watching the broadcast on television screens were equally caught up in a frenzy of emotion.
Their heartbeats synchronized with the rhythm of the match, every goal sending their blood boiling.
When the footage of Wu Lei's goal appeared on the screen, they couldn't control their excitement, standing up to cheer and applaud, some even shedding tears.
"Wu Lei is awesome! Lippi is awesome! Lin Feng is awesome!" These shouts rose and fell, becoming a common slogan for the fans.
They cheered for Wu Lei's excellent performance, applauded Lippi's precise command, and praised Lin Feng's brilliant play in the match.
After conceding the goal, Qatar goalkeeper Shib's face instantly turned ashen, and he angrily complained to his teammates.
His voice was filled with dissatisfaction and regret, as if he wanted to unleash all the anger in his heart.
"It was a perfect scoring opportunity, we could have extended our lead!" he roared, clenching his fists, as if venting his frustration.
His teammates were intimidated by his anger, and they all lowered their heads, not daring to meet his gaze.
They knew that this goal was a heavy blow to the Qatar Team, especially since it had slipped under Shib's arm, which undoubtedly was a serious questioning of his personal ability.
"How is this possible? I clearly held my position, how could he score from there?" Shib continued to complain, his eyes filled with confusion and anger.
And in this tense and intense atmosphere, Hassan Al-Haydos, the captain of the Qatar National Team, walked over.
He gently patted Shib's head and said in a calm and firm voice, "The match is not over yet, everyone, don't be discouraged.
We still have time, we still have a chance."
Every word of Hassan Al-Haydos was like a stabilizing force, firmly embedding itself in the hearts of the Qatar players.
His eyes revealed determination and trust, as if telling every player that no matter what difficulties they encountered, they had the ability to overcome them.
Shib felt the captain's support, and the anger and regret in his heart slowly subsided.
He took a deep breath, straightened his chest again, and prepared to meet the upcoming challenge.
Hassan Al-Haydos's leadership was fully demonstrated at this moment.
He was not only able to stabilize the morale at critical moments but also to restore the team's spirit in the shortest possible time.
Every action and every word of his was full of power, making people unable to help but be convinced.
Later, Hassan Al-Haydos led the Qatar Team to rise unexpectedly, winning the Asia championship twice, and the display of leadership at this moment was undoubtedly an important cornerstone.
He was not only the team's leader on the field but also the spiritual pillar in the hearts of the players off the field.
However, Hassan Al-Haydos, returning to his position, did not dwell on previous emotions; he quickly adjusted his mindset and turned his gaze to Lin Feng, who was running on the field.
As Qatar's midfield maestro, he clearly realized that Lin Feng was the China Team's biggest threat on the defensive end.
Lin Feng's excellent performance was reflected not only in his precise passing but also in his keen insight and outstanding defensive ability.
Hassan Al-Haydos knew that Lin Feng was the backbone of the China Team's defense, and to break through the China Team's defensive line, he had to cleverly avoid Lin Feng's tight marking.
He stood on the sideline, his eyes fixed on Lin Feng, replaying snippets from previous matches in his mind like a projector, trying to find weaknesses in Lin Feng's defense.
Hassan Al-Haydos had long heard of Lin Feng's speed and strength, and he knew that a direct frontal assault would not be wise.
Therefore, he intended to use his wisdom and experience to confuse Lin Feng through clever tactical arrangements.
After the match resumed, Hassan Al-Haydos quickly adjusted his strategy.
He no longer frequently attempted direct passes to break through as before, but instead began to cooperate more tacitly with his teammates, gradually tearing open the China Team's defense through precise short passes and positioning.
He sometimes passed the ball to the wing, attracting Lin Feng's attention, and then suddenly passed it back to the center, creating a shooting opportunity for his teammates; other times, he used his dribbling skills to move flexibly on the field, looking for space to break through.
Every pass and movement of his was full of wisdom and experience, putting immense pressure on the China Team's backline.
At the same time, Hassan Al-Haydos also closely watched Lin Feng's movements.
He noticed that although Lin Feng's defense was very tight, in certain specific passing routes, he would still inadvertently reveal weaknesses.
So, Hassan Al-Haydos began to pass the ball specifically along these routes, trying to make Lin Feng make mistakes in defense.
Finally, in a brilliant combination, Hassan Al-Haydos found an opportunity to break through.
He used a precise through ball to penetrate the China Team's defense, creating an excellent shooting opportunity for his teammate.
Although it ultimately didn't result in a goal, this attack gave the Qatar Team hope and also made the China Team feel the pressure.
