After entering the restricted area, the next thing became relatively simple for Lu Wenbin.
He just pushed the ball calmly and it rolled accurately into the blind corner of the goal.
Although the goalkeeper of No. 4 Middle School made a save, he was too slow to save the ball. His hand was late in getting to the ball after it had already gone into the net.
The referee blew the whistle to indicate that the goal was valid, and Lu Wenbin scored another goal, helping Meijiang Middle School lead Zunyi No. 4 Middle School 2-0.
At this time, it was only the third minute into the game.
Within 3 minutes, Lu Wenbin scored twice and helped Meijiang Middle School lead Zunyi No. 4 Middle School 2-0.
The performance of Lu Wenbin and Meijiang Middle School stunned the players, cheerleaders and other spectators in the stands of No. 4 Middle School.
"Holy crap, this striker from Meijiang Middle School is so awesome, right? He scored two goals in three minutes?"
"Who said No. 4 Middle School will definitely win?"
"In this match, No. 4 Middle School might lose!"
"Last season's runner-up was eliminated in the first game. What a surprise!"
There were also two students from No. 4 Middle School who arrived a few minutes late. As soon as they entered the stadium, they saw the words "Zunyi No. 4 Middle School 0-2 Meijiang Middle School" written in big red letters on the big screen.
Suddenly, both of them were dumbfounded.
"Damn it, the game has just started? How come we are already 0-2 behind?"
"The score is wrong, right? Is it Zunyi No. 4 Middle School 2-0 Meijiang Middle School?"
Then, after the two found their seats and asked their classmates, they realized that the score was not wrong. Last season's runner-up, Zunyi No. 4 Middle School, was really trailing 0-2 to Meijiang Middle School.
Moreover, he was defeated by the same forward of the opponent within 3 minutes.
It's really jaw-dropping!
Under everyone's shocked gaze, Lu Wenbin and his teammates celebrated wildly again, and then waited for No. 4 Middle School to kick off and restart the game.
After losing two goals in a row, the players of No. 4 Middle School finally woke up from their dream and started a fierce counterattack.
Of course, the players of No. 4 Middle School did not forget Lu Wenbin who scored twice.
Song Haitao closely guarded Lu Wenbin and never left his side.
Moreover, the other midfielders and defenders all focused on assisting Lu Wenbin in defense, using their numerical advantage to surround and rob Lu Wenbin.
Because of the defensive counterattack, and Nie Yingkun and Xiang Youming also focused most of their energy on defense, Lu Wenbin did not get support from his teammates, which resulted in him often losing the ball due to being double-teamed by three or four opponents, or missing the goal due to hasty shots.
On the other hand, because they had to guard against Lu Wenbin's counterattack, the backcourt of No. 4 Middle School did not dare to press forward and participate in the attack, resulting in insufficient number of offensive players for No. 4 Middle School, and they were unable to break through the goal of Meijiang Middle School, which was concentrating on defense.
Until the 43rd minute, when the first half was about to end, Zunyi No. 4 Middle School finally broke through the defense of Meijiang Middle School in the frontcourt with its strong overall strength. Their forward scored a goal in the small penalty area, tying the score to 1-2.
After 40 minutes of fierce attack, they finally scored a goal. The players of No. 4 Middle School were immediately ecstatic and celebrated wildly on the court.
They saw hope of a comeback win.
The first half ended not long after Zunyi No. 4 Middle School scored a goal.
After a fifteen-minute break, the two sides changed sides and continued the game.
Zhang Minghai replaced a defender who received a yellow card for defending in the first half and continued to stick to the defensive counterattack style.
The fourth middle school found confidence through the goal in the last few minutes of the first half. The five offensive players continued to intensify the attack, vowing to equalize or even surpass the score.
As for the backcourt, it was entirely left to Song Haitao and four defenders.
In the latter stage of the first half, they perfectly contained Lu Wenbin and prevented him from scoring again.
This was also taken as a wrong signal by the players of Zunyi No. 4 Middle School: they began to think that the double goal in the first 3 minutes of the first half was just luck, rather than that Lu Wenbin really had the ability to break through the defense line of Zunyi No. 4 Middle School alone.
However, in the 56th minute of the second half, before No. 4 Middle School scored the second goal to equalize the score, Lu Wenbin gave them a heavy blow.
This time, although Lu Wenbin still failed to break through everyone and score, no player from No. 4 Middle School felt that this defense was successful.
Because Lu Wenbin was tackled to the ground by a defender from No. 4 Middle School in the penalty area and lost the ball, the referee awarded the first penalty kick of the game.
Not only that, the referee also gave the defender who made the tackle a yellow card.
Lu Wenbin just rubbed his legs, stood up and prepared to take the penalty kick.
Under the desperate gaze of the players and cheerleaders of No. 4 Middle School, Lu Wenbin scored the penalty kick in one fell swoop, performed a hat trick, and led Meijiang Middle School to a 3-1 lead over Zunyi No. 4 Middle School.
After falling behind by two goals again, Zunyi No. 4 Middle School had no choice but to increase its offensive efforts in an effort to equalize or even surpass the score as soon as possible.
However, the consequence of their massive attack was that the backcourt gave Lu Wenbin more space.
In the 77th minute, Lu Wenbin's momentum as he rushed forward with the ball attracted the attention of everyone in No. 4 Middle School. Immediately, four people, including Song Haitao, surrounded him and tried to rob Lu Wenbin.
In the previous game, apart from the penalty kick, this tactic of theirs did play a certain role.
Lu Wenbin didn't pass the ball to assist his teammates, so Song Haitao and others subconsciously ignored other people and only focused on double-teaming Lu Wenbin.
But this time, Lu Wenbin went against his usual practice and did not dribble forward, putting himself in a dead end.
The 9/11 vision allows Lu Wenbin to observe the situation on the court while dribbling the ball.
The amateur defense of No. 4 Middle School left Han Dapeng completely unguarded.
So, before Song Haitao and others completely surrounded Lu Wenbin, he made a lob pass and sent the ball in front of Han Dapeng.
Although Lu Wenbin's passing attribute of 6/13 resulted in a poor pass, there was no one marking Han Dapeng, giving him plenty of time to adjust his pace and then make a light shot.
Although the goalkeeper of No. 4 Middle School rushed towards Han Dapeng after seeing Lu Wenbin pass the ball, he still failed to save Han Dapeng's shot from a tricky angle.
Lu Wenbin assisted Han Dapeng to score, and Meijiang Middle School led Zunyi No. 4 Middle School 4-1.
Now, Zunyi No. 4 Middle School is really in a desperate situation.
After the restart, they resolutely put most of their men into the game and bombarded the goal of Meijiang Middle School.
Moreover, they also successfully scored a goal.
In the 86th minute, they finally scored another goal, tying the score to 2-4.
There were still several minutes left, and the players from No. 4 Middle School, who were blood-thirsty, were ready to continue their attack in an effort to tie the score.
However, at this time Lu Wenbin stood up again and poured a bucket of cold water on them.
In the 88th minute, just 2 minutes after No. 4 Middle School scored a goal, Meijiang Middle School got a corner kick.
Lu Wenbin jumped high in the penalty area despite being pulled by two opposing defenders, and with a handsome lion-like head shake, he headed the ball into the goal of No. 4 Middle School.
Lu Wenbin scored four goals and led Meijiang Middle School to a 5-2 lead over Zunyi No. 4 Middle School.
With such a score and at such a time, victory was definitely secured. The players from No. 4 Middle School felt that they were no longer able to turn the situation around and finally lost their will to fight.
A few minutes later, the referee blew the whistle to end the game. Despite no one's expectations, Meijiang Middle School defeated Zunyi No. 4 Middle School with a score of 5-2, won the first game and advanced to the next round.
