Chapter 652 The Battle of the Ball Kings
There are less than twenty minutes left in the game including injury stoppage time.
"There is not much time left for the German team." This is the commentary of Matt, the commentator of German sports commentator.
Such commentary is very familiar to the Chinese team a few years ago, but at this moment it was spoken out by the German commentator.
Lof's mind was also a little confused. He felt that this team was even harder to lead than four years ago.
Especially after the German team won the World Cup, this championship team became even more difficult to lead.
It is said that winning a championship is easy, but it is difficult to maintain a championship.
Of course, Lof is quite clear about the meaning of this sentence.
Moreover, he made complete preparations for such a difficult challenge.
He also wants to regain his 14-year glory, lead the team to win the semi-finals, and then defeat their favorite opponent Argentina again in the finals to defend the World Cup champion.
In that case, Thalev would be a legendary coach with two Hercules Cup trophys.
The coach who has accomplished this achievement in history is an Italian named Victoria Pozzo.
In this World Cup, Lippi and Loeff both hope to achieve this great achievement.
The reality is indeed too cruel. The German team hit the Chinese team's goal frame twice in five minutes after 80 minutes.
This allowed the Chinese team to escape.
The Chinese team also relied on their tenacious defense to successfully delay the game to ninety minutes later, which is the last four minutes of injury stoppage time.
In overtime, Loeff had already started dancing and he seemed very excited. He hoped that the team could score a goal at the last moment and drag the game into overtime.
In his opinion, if the game enters overtime, then there is a great hope for Germany to defeat the Chinese team within 30 minutes.
However, the Chinese team will never give them this opportunity.
Now, the Chinese fans at the scene still use their singing to inspire the Chinese team's soldiers.
All Chinese players, including Xu Qi, retreated to prevent the German team from the final counterattack.
They knew that the German team would not give up until the last second.
But the Chinese team will not give up either.
Time is gradually passing...
Two minutes...
Three minutes...
Four minutes...
Four minutes and thirty seconds...
Four minutes and thirty-five seconds...
The referee finally blew the whistle to the end of the game.
This difficult World Cup semi-final battle is finally over!
The German team still failed to break through the Chinese team's goal again. Two to one, the Chinese team reached the final!
In this way, both sides will be sure of the final battle.
The Chinese team will face the runner-up of the last World Cup and the Argentina team with Messi!
Xu Qi and Messi, two super stars in today's football, will usher in a peak showdown in the World Cup final!
In the final of the Federation Cup last year, Xu Qi had already had a duel with Ronaldo, and Xu Qi finally won.
This time, it was Messi's turn to Xu Qi's opponent.
In this World Cup, Argentina is in very good shape, and Messi is in very good shape.
However, Messi's light seemed to be somewhat covered by Xu Qi.
After all, Xu Qi's data is too gorgeous and dazzling.
When the two sides of the finals were determined, almost all the topics were centered around Xu Qi and Messi.
It seems that other concerns are irrelevant.
There is no doubt that before Xu Qi, Messi was once a superstar who dominated the world's number one position.
After that, Xu Qi rose rapidly. In the past three seasons, he completely suppressed Messi and became the most terrifying superstar in football today.
Before Xu Qi, Messi could become the undisputed king of football as long as he won the World Cup championship. Now, he still has a chance.
Of course, Xu Qi's recent performance is even more terrifying, so if Xu Qi can lead the Chinese team to the final World Cup championship, then Xu Qi will also become the undisputed king of football.
Even Xu Qi's greatness is even better than Messi, not only Messi, but also past Pele and Maradona.
After all, this is leading the Chinese team to win the championship. Can ordinary people achieve such a feat?
I'm afraid a few years ago, many Chinese fans never dreamed of such a thing.
Even today, they are incredible about the current achievements of the Chinese team.
It seemed as if I woke up overnight, why did the Chinese team suddenly change from Asian third-rate to world-class?
"Oh my God, my Qing Dynasty is dead, and the Chinese team has entered the World Cup final!"
"Really? I haven't paid attention to Chinese football for a long time. I was heartbroken. Even if Xu Qi returns to the national team, I haven't paid much attention. Although I have seen some media boasting about how strong the Chinese team has become, I still don't believe it. I suddenly saw news from the News Network today and realized that the Chinese team has entered the World Cup finals!"
"I didn't watch the news broadcast, but last night, I suddenly saw many people rushing to the streets, starting to sing, setting off firecrackers, and fireworks. I thought something exploded. But when I found out, it turned out to be a celebration of the Chinese team entering the World Cup finals!"
Now, the whole of China knows such a magical thing.
Athletes who once satirized some other events in Chinese football have now expressed their support for Chinese football on social media.
Everyone cheered for the Chinese men's football team.
"You are our pride, we want the Chinese football team to learn!"
"We need to learn the spirit of men's football!"
Xu Qi occasionally saw such remarks and titles, and couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.
After more than three years of hard work, the "bad image" of the Chinese team has finally been reversed.
The spirit of the women's volleyball team in the past has now become the spirit of the men's football team.
It's really amazing.
The former shame of the country, the object of being scolded by thousands of people, has now become pride.
At this moment, the players of the national football team suddenly felt like a poor student who had been hopeless in the college entrance examination and suddenly leaned on Tsinghua and Peking University.
It's really reached the peak of life.
A female tennis player second only to Xu Qi in the past few years, also praised the Chinese national football team on Weibo.
Yao Ming also said that the achievements of the national football team are great, and the men's basketball team should learn from the men's football team. This is the achievement that China's big ball sports should achieve!
In short, there is peace and prosperity.
At the same time, the pressure on the Chinese team has also begun to become huge.
They reached the final, which also means that they have to bear the expectations of the 1.3 billion people in the country. This country is rising, and the national football team is also rising, so they all need a Hercules Cup.
That will be a proof of the rise of this great power!
Amid the cheers of Chinese fans, a battle of three or four people quietly began.
Of course, some hardcore fans are still very concerned about the grudge between Brazil and Germany.
The 7-1 last World Cup was the eternal pain for Brazil, and they must take revenge.
The final match between the three and four was actually quite exciting. In the end, Neymar made a pass and shot, helping Brazil defeat the German national team three-to-two.
In the final scorer list, Neymar also tied Messi's 6 goals, and his two Barcelona teammates are currently tied for second place in the scorer list.
Chapter completed!
