Maya Yoshida's fierce tackle on Lu Wenbin's supporting foot from the side and back scared the Chinese players and fans on and off the field, who were afraid that Lu Wenbin would be injured by Maya Yoshida's tackle.
Wang Song, Zhao Xuri and others immediately rushed up to check on Lu Wenbin's injuries, or to find the Japanese to argue.
The Japanese also rushed up to protect Maya Yoshida, and some players from both sides even had verbal and physical conflicts.
Countless Chinese fans shouted "red card" in the stands, while some Japanese fans clamored "good tackle", and the confrontational mood was very obvious.
However, after the referee took out two yellow cards to calm the emotional players from both sides, and gave a red card to Maya Yoshida who tackled the opponent from behind, Lu Wenbin slowly got up, while Maya Yoshida who tackled the opponent curled up with his hands on his chest, his face full of pain.
After the Japanese team's team doctor came on the field to check, he found that Maya Yoshida actually had a broken rib in his chest.
The elbow that Lu Wenbin threw when he landed was quite powerful.
Yoshida Maya, who was sent off with a red card, was unable to walk on his own and was carried off on a stretcher. Moreover, he went straight to the hospital after the game.
This scene stunned the Chinese and Japanese fans in the stands.
At the beginning, Chinese fans were very angry when they saw Lu Wenbin being tackled, while Japanese fans were gloating.
As a result, when Lu Wenbin stood up as if nothing had happened and Yoshida Maya was not only sent off with a red card, but also injured and carried away on a stretcher, the emotions of both sides changed.
Chinese fans applauded, cheered and screamed, while Japanese fans booed Lu Wenbin loudly, calling him a "butcher."
Of course, Lu Wenbin didn’t understand Japanese, and even if he did, he wouldn’t have paid any attention.
This was because Maya Yoshida used non-competitive means to deal with him first, and he just fell down and pressed him down. Maya Yoshida brought this upon himself.
However, the fact that Lu Wenbin injured one player and sent him off with a red card and had one less player actually aroused the Japanese's determination. They no longer cared whether the backcourt would be blown up by Lu Wenbin and almost launched an all-out attack.
This is a suicidal attack, a bit like the Bushido spirit in some literary works.
Although the all-out attack allowed the Japanese team to score a goal in the 84th minute, Lu Wenbin counterattacked in the 90th minute and scored successfully, continuing to lead the Japanese team by 3 goals.
After that, neither side scored any more goals.
After 5 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the game. Lu Wenbin scored four goals in the match against the favorite to win the championship, Japan, and led the Chinese team to a 5-2 victory over Japan and advance to the semi-finals of the 2011 Qatar Asian Cup.
Suddenly, all the Chinese coaches and substitute players on the sidelines rushed into the field and celebrated with Lu Wenbin and others on the field.
The Chinese fans in the stands also cried with joy, applauded, cheered and screamed, and the roar of "Long live China, China" was heard everywhere.
In the commentary booth, the CCTV commentator excitedly said:
"The game is over, the game is over. The Chinese team defeated Japan 5-2 in the quarter-finals and advanced to the semi-finals of this Asian Cup."
"This is the first time that the Chinese men's football team has defeated the Japanese team since 1998, and it was a 5-2 victory. It is definitely worth celebrating!"
Yes, Chinese football is so tragic.
In addition to Konophobia, I almost developed Japanophobia.
Fortunately, last year the Chinese national football team defeated South Korea 3-0 in the East Asian Four Nations League, breaking the Chinese team's history of not winning against South Korea. Now, thanks to Lu Wenbin's outstanding performance, they defeated Japan 5-2, breaking the Japanophobia.
No wonder the commentator was so excited.
Chinese fans or ordinary TV viewers who heard the commentary in front of the TV also cheered.
This big victory really made Chinese fans very happy.
Last year, when the Chinese national football team beat South Korea 3-0, some people nitpicked and said that they were South Korea's second team and there was nothing to brag about.
It’s different now. The Japanese team has fielded all its main players. Stars like Shinji Okazaki, Shinji Kagawa, and Keisuke Honda are all well-known Asian superstars in the Chinese fan circle.
The result is that they were defeated 2-5 by China, which proves that the gap in strength between the two sides is really big.
The Chinese team with Lu Wenbin lived up to the reputation of the Ballon d'Or winner. Although the FIFA rankings have not yet risen to the top in Asia, in fact, it should already be the top in Asia.
The ideal of many netizens is that in the future the South Korean and Japanese teams will suffer from Sinophobia and will lose when they meet the Chinese team and will be afraid when they meet the Chinese team.
It's true that as long as we have Lu Wenbin, the Ballon d'Or winner who is far beyond the level of Asia, this ideal may really be realized.
After the game, countless domestic media reported extensively on the news that the Chinese team defeated Japan 5-2.
"In the Asian Cup quarter-finals, the Chinese team defeated Japan 5-2!"
"Lu Wenbin recovered from a cold and performed brilliantly, scoring four goals and leading the Chinese team to a 5-2 victory over Japan!"
"China's national football team beat Japan 5-2, the first victory against Japan since 1998!"
"Lu Wenbin led the Chinese team to a 5-2 victory over Japan and reached the semi-finals, two games away from the championship!"
"A healthy Lu Wenbin turned out to be so terrifying. Is Chinese football really about to usher in a historic moment?"
This 5-2 victory made everyone who cares about Chinese football ecstatic.
Facing the favorite to win the championship, the Japanese team, the Chinese team was able to defeat them 5-2. So who can stop the Chinese team from winning the championship
South Korea and Australia are only comparable to Japan in strength!
Suddenly, discussions about the Chinese team's possibility of winning its first Asian Cup title spread across the country, attracting many people who had never paid attention to football before to become fans.
As for Lu Wenbin, the main contributor to this game, there is an extra surprise.
I thought all the matches in the Asian Cup were the same as the Champions League, with the same rewards throughout the whole process. I didn’t expect that after this quarter-final, Lu Wenbin’s experience reward would be doubled.
According to the system's explanation, this is because national team competitions are more difficult than club competitions, and the Asian Cup is only held once every four years.
Therefore, the rewards for the knockout stage and the group stage are different, and the experience rewards for the knockout stage are twice that of the group stage.
In other words, in this quarter-final match where Lu Wenbin performed so well, he received a total of 1 assist worth 100,000, 4 goals worth 800,000, and a win worth 400,000, for a total of 1.3 million experience points. The system experience point suddenly increased to 7.049 million/10 million.
1.3 million experience points for one game is simply too generous.
The Asian Cup actually has more experience than the Champions League, and it is worthy of being a competition with the bonus of national honor.
If they can really win the championship in the end, and Lu Wenbin himself scores more goals, plus the rewards for winning the championship, Lu Wenbin might be able to advance in this Asian Cup.
Of course, the requirements are a bit high. But in any case, after the Asian Cup, even if we are not promoted, we are not far from being promoted.
Based on the Asian Cup, is it true that the experience of the group stage and knockout stage of the World Cup will also be different
The Asian Cup gives more than 1 million experience points per game, how much more does the World Cup give
It’s even more fascinating just thinking about it.
Lu Wenbin vowed in his heart that he must lead the Chinese national football team to break out of Asia and enter the 2014 Brazil World Cup finals. (Seeking monthly votes)
