Me, Captain of China

Vol 4 Chapter 822: Play the World Cup as an Asian Cup!

Genius remembers this site address in one second: []The fastest update! No ads!

Italy is not unexcited, the coach Trapattoni was quite crazy after the game:

"We created more scoring opportunities, but unfortunately we finally lost the game. The South Korean team devoted themselves to the game. This game was very exciting."

"I think the winner tonight should be the Italian team, but everyone knows what happened on the court."

"This World Cup Italy has suffered too many misfortunes. I have witnessed many unexplainable things happening, and finally caused the Italian team to be hit. Today we played very well, we will leave the World Cup with our heads high, but some Things look so bitter in retrospect."

"One of us was sent off, I don't know why."

Cannavaro said angrily: "This is simply the biggest scandal in the history of the World Cup!"

A reporter from Italy's All Sports blocked Cannavaro, who was rushing to the lounge angrily after the game. Faced with reporters' questions about the referee, Cannavaro's answer was simple, "Shame!"

When the reporter asked for further interviews, Cannavaro said that it is not appropriate to talk about these issues in South Korea, and everything will be discussed after returning home. However, Cannavaro still couldn't restrain the anger in his chest. Perhaps he was furious. Instead of targeting the referee and the Koreans, he accused the Italian Football Association of incompetence. "Is the Italian Football Association resigning? We are like this. They were eliminated and their work was not reflected."

Totti, who was sent off by the red card, burned with anger:

"When we just came on the field and shook hands with them before the game started, the referee Moreno acted indifferently to us and did not want to talk to our players. The referee's performance was the same as I expected; sure enough, the game started. In just 5 minutes, they awarded the Korean team a penalty. And I was sent off later, which made me feel very absurd. He had a strange expression when he came to give me the penalty. After five or six steps, he hesitated. , And then may remember that I already had a yellow card, then he came over, gave me another yellow card, and sent me off."

Totti also expressed disagreement with the penalty that the South Korean team won shortly after the match: "Seol Ki-hyun deliberately fell down to defraud the penalty. The referee's penalty is too irritating! They are trying to drive the Italian out of the World Cup. !"

Panucci: "We don't understand who is playing this game. Before they scored the tie, we were in good condition... Maybe this is fate. But what happened on the court today It is humiliating. For a player who has been dreaming of the World Cup since he was a child, they have driven him off the World Cup in this way."

Panucci went on to say: "What happened today is ugly. We lost the game in a disgraceful way. Maybe our leader will hear more explanations, and then we will start complaining... …Today, Corina performed very well as an international referee on the court."

Vieri expressed regret to Gazzetta dello Sport: “Jung Chi called us before the game and warned us, but unfortunately we didn’t take it to heart. I really regret it now! I didn’t expect the Koreans. So shameless with the referee!"

After Italy was out, European media also generally believed that this result was unbelievable.

The German "Kicker" believes that the referee's penalty was justified, and the flop penalty that Totti sent off was too far-fetched. Tomasy's goal was indeed a misjudgment. Many of the Italian team's good goals were taken in this competition. Wrong judgment stifles. These two penalties will always be controversial, the Italians can only say goodbye to the World Cup sadly.

The French "Team Daily" thought that "South Korea sent Italy home, this is another big upset", another big favorite left too early. Italy once had the advantage, but failed to expand the results. South Korea subsequently staged a dramatic reversal. Italy's Tomasy's goal was rejected, and Totti's red card was too hasty. As far as Trapattoni thought after the game, football tonight has changed.

The Spanish team, which is about to face South Korea, regretted Italy at the same time, believing that South Korea defeated Italy with the golden ball and controversial referees. "Marca" believes that this game contains everything about football: penalty kicks, red cards, misjudgments, terrible mistakes by forwards. After Italy took the lead, they continued to show their time-wasting skills, but the performance of the Koreans was surprising. The newspaper expressed concern about the referee, because the referee in this game helped the home team many times. Penalties, Totti's red card, and Tomasi's goal were all blew by him rashly.

The Spanish "Aspen" believes that the Italian team reproduced the scene that was defeated by the North Korean team in 1966. The South Koreans relied on their non-stop attack to defeat the Italian back line. The article believes that although the results are incredible, they are facts. The Italians defeated themselves. Regarding the issue of refereeing, the newspaper believes that Italy suffered such retaliation because of the discord with Blatter. Therefore, the referee may be fairer in the match between South Korea and Spain.

The Spanish coach Camacho who watched the game sighed in an interview with Spain’s Effie News Agency, “I said before that South Korea will be the most difficult team to deal with. Their performance today proved my words. Inside, their players can run non-stop and put pressure on their opponents, and the opponent is playing at home. We have a lot to pay attention to, including the referee! But we still have the ability to win the game and enter the semi-finals!"

...

Anyway, this battle opened the world's horizons.

One-eighth is over, England 3:0 Denmark, Germany 1:0 Paraguay, Spain 1:1 Ireland (penalties 3-2): Senegal 2:1 Sweden (overtime), the United States 2:0 Mexico, Brazil 2 :0 Belgium, China 3:0 Japan, South Korea 2:1 Italy (extra time).

The next quarter-finals are against Germany VS America, Brazil VS England, South Korea VS Spain, China VS Senegal.

If the Chinese team defeats Senegal, then the opponent of the Chinese team is the winner of Korea VS Spain...

On the 22nd, China will compete with Senegal for the top four spots.

As a new team in the World Cup, Senegal reached the quarter-finals in one fell swoop, tying the best result of the African team created by Cameroon in the World Cup. Through the World Cup, the previously unknown Senegalese football and Senegalese players let the fans know that, indeed, as the head coach Mechu said, a great team is being born.

Saturday’s game is approaching. This year’s African football player Senegal striker Diouf pointed out that the three Chinese players are the ones he and his teammates have to deal with. He told reporters at the hotel where the team stayed:

"The Chinese team is a team worthy of our respect, but we have to stick to our own style of play. We should not ask ourselves too many questions or put too much pressure on ourselves. They have some very good players, especially Zheng Zhi, Fan Zhiyi and Sun Jihai, they are all playing in the top leagues in the world, their strength is very good. I regret that my club teammate Fan was injured. I also joked with him before and said that I will definitely play In the game, he finished the goal, but it seems that we can't meet on the field. Of course, without him, I think the Chinese team's defense will become much weaker. This is our opportunity."

Diouf also plays for Liverpool, and it seems that the relationship between the two is good.

Although Fan Zhiyi was injured, he has appeared on the training ground these days to give advice to his national teammates. He believes that the most dangerous player in the Senegalese team is Diouf. There is no one.

In fact, Fan Zhiyi doesn't need to say, Diouf has let the world know his awesomeness.

High speed, excellent physical fitness, strong desire to shoot, strong explosive power and dexterous ball control skills. This is the 21-year-old Diouf.

In the first scene of the group stage against the defending champion France, Diouf began to shine. It was he who snatched the ball from Djokaf's feet cleanly in the 29th minute and single-handedly tore the enemy. Defensive line on the right, sending fatal assists for teammates, helping the team burst out with a 1:0 cold.

Since then, in the group stage against Denmark and Uruguay and in the 16-to-8 match against Sweden, Diouf was like a **** in the frontcourt, dazzling breakthroughs and explosive sprints to disrupt the opponent's defense. Square inches are in chaos. Under Diouf's leadership, this little-known African team made a shocking break into the quarterfinals and became the most surprising team in this cup.

Horton's biggest worry now is the defense. Fan Zhi is missing and can't find a reliable player to replace him.

Qu Bo?

Zhang Enhua?

He didn't think it was okay, because both of them were too slow. Fan Zhiyi was the most suitable one, but Fan Zhiyi was injured.

How to do?

When the coaching staff met, everyone's opinions were very different.

Qu Bo or Zhang Enhua? They have their own opinions, and even said that Zheng Zhi should return to the position of central defender to target Diouf, but Horton feels that it is not ideal. If Zheng Zhi returns to central defender, then the Chinese midfielder will be completely mediocre. It is impossible to consider.

During training on the 20th, Horton called Zheng Zhi to the side of the court to consult him. As a result, Fan Zhiyi was also nearby, and Zheng Zhi put forward another opinion.

"I think it is necessary to let an experienced player spot him. Li Weifeng is definitely the most suitable candidate now, but one Li Weifeng is not enough, we need two!"

"Their impact is too strong. Our line of defense must be very balanced."

Anyway, it was discussed in private, and Zheng Zhi did not hide it.

"Well, let Sun Jihai come to the middle, form a middle partner with Li Weifeng, and let Xu Yunlong play the right back. The other positions remain the same."

"Sun?"

"Hit center defender?"

Horton's eyes lit up immediately.

It is indeed a beautiful strategy to move Arsenal's right-back to the center-back position. There is no more suitable candidate than him, at least more reliable than Qu Bo or Zhang Enhua, right?

"This method is feasible."

"Fan, what do you think?" Holden looked at Fan Zhiyi again, and after Fan Zhiyi nodded thoughtfully.

"I also agree with this. Sun Jihai can complete the task very well. He is reassuring."

Afterwards, several big brothers hit it off.

After the conclusion of this worry, the Chinese team's starting lineup is ready to come out. In the next few days of training, Sun Jihai played the position of central defender and partnered with Li Weifeng...

The quarter-finals of the World Cup also revived.

At 14:30 on June 21st, Beijing time, the first game of the World Cup quarter-finals blew the whistle at Shizuoka Stadium, defeating England 2:1 with Brazil, which played less and played more. Owen caught Lucio's mistake and took the lead. Ronaldinho assisted Rivaldo to equalize, and then used a free kick to overtake in the second half, but soon received a controversial red card. Brazil's top contributor to the reversal will miss the semifinals. Their opponents in the semifinals will be the winners of the Chinese team and Senegal.

Subsequently, the second quarter-finals also started. At the Ulsan Monju Football Stadium, Germany beat the United States 1-0 and became the second team to reach the semi-finals. The US team had a slight advantage after the opening, but Germany exerted force in the final stage of the first half and Ballack scored with a header. In the second half, the American team fully took the initiative, but the German defense, led by captain Kahn, tried to keep the gates. In the end, 1:0 advanced to the World Cup semi-finals.

At 14:30 on June 22, Beijing time, the third game of the World Cup quarter-finals was played at the Gwangju World Cup Stadium. Spain was eliminated by South Korea 3:5 in the penalty kick. The referee once again became the focus, the first half hit 0:0, in the second half, South Korea's own own goal was invalidated. In overtime, Morientes scored a goal, but was misjudged as being out of bounds first. After hitting the goal post, Morientes' single chance was blown offside.

After the penalty shootout, El Guerra and other angry Spanish players besieged the assistant referee...

El Guerra looked extremely angry. He yelled and rushed towards the referee and linesman who was approaching the center circle, and furiously tried to pull the assistant referee to make a theory. In the chaos, the two sides had a fierce physical conflict. An assistant coach of the Spanish team pulled El Guerra to try to calm him down, but the latter reacted fiercely and continued to rush towards the referee after breaking free. At this time, Juan Fran, El Guerra's teammate, raised his arm in anger and shouted to the referee. It was the Spanish assistant coaches who grabbed El Guerra's jersey. In the end, Xavi pulled him off the scene forcibly, and the referee was able to get out under the **** of off-court officials...

The South Korean team has reached the World Cup semi-finals historically!

After the match, Spain's leading newspaper "Marca" attacked the referee with the headline "Robbery!".

"Marca" said that it was the referee Egyptian Gundall who helped the Koreans eliminate the Spanish team. The entire football game was stifled in South Korea today. Egyptian Gundall and his two assistants will be nailed to the World Cup forever On the pillar of shame. The referee blew off two goals from the Spanish team. The victory originally belonged to us, but we were "robbed" by black hands.

"Marca" believes that Spain's two goals are good goals, and the referee and assistant referee's penalties have led to a disaster in world football. In the long report after the match, "Marca" used the headline "The referee gave football a fatal kick". José Annott, a columnist for "Marca", was obviously out of anger, saying that the World Cup in Korea and Japan simply called the World Cup in South Korea, because the Koreans are so "strong" and the World Cup will not leave us any memories. Except for the disgusting words "robbing, stealing".

While the whole world was calling for grievances for Spain, the Chinese team also began a pre-match press conference.

While the Koreans were cheering the whole country, Zheng Zhi also screamed for Spain in front of the media.

"Unfortunately, I just watched the game between Spain and South Korea."

"Spain has done everything in order to win. The game is indeed very difficult. Everyone has seen that what happened to other teams is repeated for them. They are just another victim."

Reporter: "How do you comment on Spain's ruling by the referee in this game?"

Zheng Zhi: "I think in an important match like the World Cup quarter-finals, the referee should be more fair, but in the end I feel very helpless."

"I am disappointed because Spain has fought for 120 minutes and got at least 4 chances. They are'playing football'. The referee should not deprive them of their two goals. I want to say that the game should be decided by the feet. , Not a referee."

Reporter: "If the Chinese team also advances to the semi-finals, then you will face the South Korean team. Are you afraid?"

"Afraid?"

"They should be afraid!"

"Give them eleven referees and they can't beat us,"

"Big deal, we play the World Cup as the Asian Cup!"

Zheng Zhi didn't give the Koreans any face, and trampled them on worthless.

"I believe that they are now ready to sit in front of the TV and pray that the top four opponents are not us, but unfortunately, they will be disappointed!"

"Except for referees, they are nothing."

After stepping on the Korean team, finally speaking of Senegal.

"Senegal's performance so far is far from ours. They are one of the few teams with good skills and good competitive form. They defeated the last champion French team in the opener and let us Surprised, but after that we were no longer surprised by their performance. They first qualified from strong teams such as Uruguay and Denmark, and then they will be able to get out of the group that even the Argentina team failed to qualify. The Swedish team was eliminated. Its strength can be imagined."

"They are a young team with a lot of highly skilled players. In this regard, they are very similar to the Brazilian team. But they are more active than the Brazilian team. The personal skills and good skills shown in the game Physical strength makes me have to believe that they are a team that is stronger than Brazil. The Brazilian team has shown their strength and lethality prematurely in many games, and Senegal’s killer has not yet been fully revealed, so contempt of Senegal will be a fatal mistake."

"Of course our Chinese team is also a very good team. Our performance so far is remarkable. But to be clear, we have not done our best so far. We have made some mistakes along the way, but we One game is better than one game. I believe that our experience, our self-confidence, our skills and tactics and enough physical strength to bring down any opponent will help us defeat the Senegal team. Our goal now is to enter the semi-finals. Now. I don’t want to say anything about the finals, because the steps have to be raised step by step, and the game has to be won one by one."

"In this battle, we will do our best for the honor of the Chinese people!"

Head coach Horton is also confident: "We have already had a perfect performance on the court, and now we have to continue this. Now we have a chance to make history. Senegal is an excellent team. , But currently our competitive state is rapidly rising. We can definitely overcome difficulties and continue our World Cup. We are ready for the battle against Senegal in terms of physical strength and technical tactics. Preparation. Only a team that makes no mistakes and makes fewer mistakes on the court and can play a real level can have the last laugh. We did not strive for the Senegal team without leaving any shortcomings. We will do our best. We will give China. The people’s commitment is responsible. Fighting for China makes us proud!"

...

At 19:30 on June 22, Beijing time.

Nagai Stadium, Osaka, Japan.

The stadium temperature is 23 degrees Celsius, the wind speed is 0.5 meters per second, the weather is clear, and the humidity is 55%.

The referee is Colombian Luis.

"Senegal starter: goalkeeper Silva; defenders Kolly, Diata, Mar Diop, Dave; midfielder Bu Diop, Dior, Cisse, Fadiga; forwards: Hen Camara, Di Uff."

"The Chinese team starts: Goalkeeper Ou Chuliang; defenders Xu Yunlong, Sun Jihai, Li Weifeng, Sun Xiang; midfielders Qu Bo, Zheng Zhi, Li Yin, Shao Jiayi; forwards Yang Chen, Su Maozhen. Fan Zhiyi has already bid farewell due to a broken shoulder. The World Cup, but he still sat on the bench today to watch the game with everyone."

"Senegal took the lead in kick-off."

"The play is quite simple, just hang the ball with a big foot and come to Diouf and Camara."

"However, Sun Jihai steadily pushed the ball out of the boundary. Today, Sun Jihai is considered to be a surprise for the Chinese team. Because Fan Zhiyi was injured, he appeared in the position of central defender, and now he calmly pushed the ball out of the boundary."

Bu Diop threw a throw-in ball on the right, and a depth bomb was thrown directly into the Chinese team's penalty area. This time, Henry Camara suppressed Sun Jihai and hit the ball, but the referee's whistle immediately sounded. Get up and call Camara a foul.

It seems that Sun Jihai's defense against Kamara was very successful.

Subsequently, the Chinese team is still in a defensive posture, let Senegal attack first, this is their usual strategy, always stabilize the position at the beginning of the game. Sun Jihai and Li Weifeng are very flexible in marking people on the back line. The two are not limited to who is looking at Diouf and Camara, but they are restricted by their proximity.

In the first ten minutes, the Chinese team's defense was very successful, and in a counterattack, Zheng Zhi used fried meatballs to get rid of Senegal's midfielder Dior, but was shoveled to the ground by Dior, which also gave Dior a yellow card.

But Sergar did not slow down the pace of the offense afterwards, still rushing very fiercely, which made the Chinese team have to continue to assume a defensive posture.

"Senegal is stronger than we expected."

"The Chinese team was suppressed at halftime."

"So far, the defense has done quite well, but we have not yet formed a counterattack..."

It is rare that Huang Jianxiang is not as passionate as he usually broadcasts. After all, Senegal puts a lot of pressure on the Chinese team. Only the Chinese fans in the stands still waved the five-star red flag and cheered for the Chinese team.

Zheng Zhi and Li Weifeng became the two busiest people on the court, and they kept instructing their teammates to mark-to-man defense. Holden on the sidelines chanted the names of players from time to time.

Anyway, it seems that Senegal is using offense instead of defense, and is determined to use offense to kill the Chinese team!

In the 17th minute, Camara took the ball from the left side of the penalty area and forced the ball out of Li Yin's tackle. He took a left-footed shot 22 meters in front of the Chinese team and completed their second shot, but Ou Chuliang steadily took the ball. Hug. Ou Chuliang tried to launch a fast attack and the ball reached Qu Bo's feet, but although Qu Bo dropped the ball to his feet, he suffered a loss in physical contact with the Senegalese players. The ball was cut off. Senegal attacked another wave of Fadi. Jia immediately transferred the ball to the right, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Bu Diop immediately crossed from the side!

Diouf was entangled in Li Weifeng's body, but still knocked Li Weifeng out of the gap, and then directly took off and forced the barb!

Da~

The right foot passed the ball, but the ball still landed on the right side of the Chinese team's defense line. Xu Yunlong hurriedly rushed up, but Fadi was quickened by a step, Fadiga directly volleyed with his left foot!

boom--

Ou Chuliang stood at the near goal post and patted the ball out with both hands, but the ball did not roll far and flew to the small penalty area line. As a result, another Senegal forward sprang out from Sun Jihai!

Shoot again at the corner of the restricted area!

boom--

Hang straight to the far corner of the goal.

"what!"

"The ball is scored!"

Huang Jianxiang and the fans were panicked for an instant, but did not expect the Chinese team to lose the ball.

After the goalkeeper Ou Chuliang got up from the turf, he also looked painful and lonely.

Beep!

The Colombian referee's whistle sounded, and everyone looked at Louis in unison.

"Ah~"

"Offside kick,"

"He awarded an offside kick!"

"Oh my God! I thought it was over! Louis is not Moreno!"

At this time, in Korea, a large number of South Korean fans went crazy.

"The referee Smecta!"

"This is a good Smecta!"

"Asshole,"

"Asshole!"

"But looking at this situation, the Chinese team will definitely lose the game, Senegal pressed them to play! Sooner or later it will be a goal. The Chinese team hasn't shot a goal now, right? Can't even pass halftime, ah ha ha ha! Too bad, there is no threat to Senegal at all."

"Our opponent must be Senegal, it cannot be the Chinese team."

"Want to make history like us? Dreaming!"
