"You are really merciless! Alas~, although I am very reluctant, I have to admit that you defeated us again. Congratulations on your successful promotion.

This time it was an accident, otherwise we would not have lost so much. Of course, several new faces in your team also performed very well. I will definitely not give you another chance next time." Fernando Diniz said this time.

After the game, he took the initiative to shake hands. Of course, he didn't give in at all. He was just talking about young people who don't have moral ethics.

"Thank you! I'm looking forward to the next competition. But it seems that there is no chance this year. If we are lucky enough to return to the First Division, let's fight again next year!" Figo responded. He knew that what the other party said was true. If

If the situation is reversed, they will not be better off either.

"I believe you can do it, but what you just said is actually not completely correct. If you are lucky enough, we may meet again in this year's Brazilian Cup." Fernando Diniz corrected.

"Oh, there are as many as 91 teams participating in the cup selection. The chance of encountering them is really small." Figo sighed.

"Believe me, it's not impossible. I have a hunch!" Fernando Diniz said with great expectation.

"Well, I hope it will be like this!" After being said by the other party, Figo also looked forward to it. Of course, it is not certain whether he will be the coach by then.

"Although we have stopped, you have to keep moving forward. The most dangerous opponent is Santos. You have never played against them, so you don't know how scary they are. My second favorite is Palmeiras. They will kill them."

Ituano should be fine, but it shouldn't be Santos's opponent, so the only one we can count on is you. Work harder! I believe you can defeat them, and the championship should belong to our city of Sao Paulo," said Fernando Diniz.

.

"We will work hard, and this is just the beginning!" Figo said with confidence.

The results of the other three games have also come out one after another.

The first is the match between Palmeiras and Ituano. Fernando Diniz made a mistake in his prediction. He obviously underestimated the strength of Ituano, and Palmeiras, the second strongest team he expected, won.

They failed in the first knockout round. Although they tied Ituano 2-2 within 120 minutes of the game, they lost in the final penalty shootout and were unfortunately eliminated.

The match between Botafogo SP and Pena Bolens also ended in a draw in 120 minutes. Neither side scored a goal. They had to decide the winner through a penalty shootout, and Pena Bolens was the winner in the end.

This is the substitute team.

There was no suspense in the match between Santos and Pontepreta. They eliminated their opponents cleanly at home with a big score of 4-0.

In this way, the results of the semi-finals are also clear, the Portuguese vs. Ituano and Santos vs. Penabolens.

In a high-end club in downtown Sao Paulo, Xue Jin looked at the big screen projection in front of him with a dull expression. Just now he lost another bet, and the person sitting next to him was still Holden.

"I said Mr. Xue, why do you lose every time you bet on the Portuguese? Although there are a few bets that are right, most of them are lost. Just like today, you have to increase your bets in such an obvious situation.

This is all in vain. I know you want to beat him in a hurry, but is it really necessary? Can't you just quietly look away from the Portuguese? There is already a problem with your judgment. If you do this again

You will be stunned if you go down there." Holden said.

Sometimes he really doubted whether Xue Jin really lost money and lost money, which affected his judgment. Although the money was not his, it still hurt him to see it.

"No, as long as I see this team is still running well, I can't help but fight against him. Also, are you teaching me how to do things? You have to understand who you are relying on now, so don't

Question my words."

Because Xue Jin was in a bad mood, he was a little offensive in his words, but he also obviously realized that his tone of voice was harsh, and he still needed to rely on his connections and resources to complete the follow-up work here, so he changed his words:

"I'm sorry, I hope you don't mind."

"Oh, it's okay." Holden said with a sneer, but he was cursing in his heart. Sometimes he really doubted that he made the right choice. If they didn't have a common enemy, they would have broken up long ago.

"The boss will be here in a few days, and he will definitely check the accounts then. But I exported too much money before. I originally wanted to win the money back, but I didn't expect to hold back this time, and instead posted more money.

Now, do you think of any remedies?" Xue Jin is also suffering from an acute illness and has been seeking medical treatment at random.

"If you can't control your emotions, then I have no choice but to leave. I have someone else. At worst, I will admit defeat." Holden said and prepared to walk out.

To be honest, Horton doubts Xue Jin's level. With this kind of vision, he is really not suitable for gambling. If he hadn't been rich enough, he would have lost all his pants. Think carefully about Xue Jin and the other party.

He is full of hatred, but he is not to that extent. There is absolutely no need for him to accompany him to the death.

But as soon as he stood up, he felt his body being pressed against by a hard object. When he looked down, he found that it was a pistol held by Xue Jin.

"Don't move, the safety on this Browning pistol is not turned off." Xue Jin said with red eyes.

"You misunderstood, I just wanted to go to the toilet because I stayed here for a long time." Holden said and took a small tentative step forward.

"You can try. If you dare to take three steps out, I will recognize you, but the gun in my hand will not recognize you!" Xue Jin said.

"But I really need to pee!" After being teased like this, Holden really felt like he had the urge to pee.

"Even if you do, hold it back first. You are not allowed to go anywhere without my permission!" Xue Jin had no intention of letting him go.

"Okay, I won't leave, but don't mind if I pee later!" Holden had no choice but to sit down, he was really scared.

"Hahahaha, I scared you! It's my fault, I apologize to you." Xue Jin said and drank the glass of wine in front of him, burped, and looked at it with a smile.

Holden said: "I sincerely ask for advice. Don't worry, I will just listen to you. You should also quickly tell me your ideas."

Although Holden was unwilling, he could only suggest with a trembling voice: "I think you should change your strategy, at least don't do this again in the next game."

"Okay, but don't you be optimistic about Ituano in the next game? This is also a dark horse?" Xue Jin asked.

"That Ituano is indeed not weak, but he fought too hard in the last game against Palmeiras, and two important players couldn't play in the next game, so I really want to play in the next game.

Not optimistic." Holden said very carefully, for fear of offending Xue Jin again.

"Okay, I accept it. It would have been better if it had been this way! Then you can do it this way. If I can't settle the account before the boss comes back, I'll be screwed and you won't have a hard time either, right?" Xue Jin said.

"We should still bet on Santos. As long as it is a Santos game, we should buy it to win. If we had done this earlier, our current situation would be completely different. And the Portuguese may have no problem playing other teams, but they should definitely not be able to pass.

Santos. Of course, for the sake of safety, we can also use some extraordinary measures." Horton suggested.
