The right-wing combination of Everton and Ru Zinan can be said to be the inevitable choice of Hong Kong Football Team without injuries in the past year. Facing Iran, which is ranked 21st in the world, head coach Anderson did not put away Ru Zinan, who led the team in the previous game, and still sent the Meizhou Hakka player to guard the right wing. “My playing experience has made me more mature. In the past few days, I have been thinking about how to deal with the opponent’s fast wing, because I may really have to face such a top player in an international competition. I have to improve in this aspect, but this game is better than last time. .” As a result, Ruzi played the entire game, but the opposing left winger Mehdi Ghayedi scored the only goal of the game. No wonder he admitted that he was a little disappointed with his personal performance.
Ru Zi has always been running around on the court, and his desperate performance earned him the nickname “Desperate Xiaonan”. This “Desperate Xiaonan” praised the team’s hard work after the game. He was especially shocked when he witnessed Everton being counterattacked after the team’s corner kick attack in the first half and chasing from the frontcourt to the left side of the penalty area. ” To be honest, at his age, he will definitely have the energy to attack. In the past few games with him, I also know that he does not return to defense too many times. But like all his teammates, he is very hardworking and desperate. It can be seen that It turns out he cares about the Hong Kong team.” This “for the Hong Kong team” spirit spread from the players on the field to the fans in the stands. When Ruzi thanked the fans with the whole team after the game, tears suddenly appeared in the corners of his eyes: “First of all, I feel a little regretful, and secondly, my family came to the scene, and I came here specially when I saw them as guests. It’s like the entire Red Sea. This is really Hong Kong’s World Cup, and everyone and the fans are also fighting for the Hong Kong team.”
Everton, who was praised by his partner, admitted that every time he wears the Hong Kong jersey and goes into battle, he will definitely give 100% to the fans. In the past two games, he has followed the coach’s instructions to return to defense more often to assist the defender: “Of course, I run up and down. It is not easy for the forwards, but we prepared well and the whole team fought together to the end. But football is like this sometimes, good performance may not necessarily lead to good results.”
The Hong Kong team made two of nine shots in the game. One of the golden opportunities came in the first half after Sun Mingqian intercepted the opponent’s pass. Everton pushed the goalkeeper and shot high into the empty goal. When talking about the shot, Everton admitted that of course he had done his best in the blink of an eye: “When I watch the replay, I think this or which shot could have been better, but in fact it is completely different on the court, every second and a half. There may not be enough time to make the best decision. But we have had this performance against Iran, and I don’t think we should be discouraged, because there is still one game.”
