For this victory, people at the core level sent congratulatory messages one after another. This has never happened before. It means that they also stayed up late to watch the game, at least they were paying attention to the game.
For the victory in this game, the foreign media can only describe it as a miracle. They never dared to think that the Chinese team, which had been lagging behind, would break into the semi-finals. However, this World Cup has always been a series of upsets. In the first game
In the quarter-finals, the American team unexpectedly defeated the German team and entered the top four. The German team completely dominated this game. There were nearly 20 shots in total, three of which hit the goal post alone, and there were also close shots.
All the shots missed. On the contrary, the United States team only had two shots, and the chances were not very good, but they both scored. This is football, anything can happen. Even Brazil has not had a five-star in the World Cup for many years.
As a result, the Chinese team and the American team will compete for the right to the finals. This is an opportunity for both sides. Both will create history.
"If we reach the finals, do we have to fantasize about winning the championship?" This was something no one had dared to think about before. Because it was so unrealistic. If they had dared to say this before, they would have been ridiculed to death.
But now they have the capital to say it. And other people also take it for granted. The result of the upset is that those gambling companies made a lot of money. No one in the top four, top eight, and even the top 16 could guess correctly before.
.Those who took part in the bet naturally lost everything.
"We really did have a shot against the American team. But the championship is really too difficult." Wang Xiong shook his head, not to undermine everyone's confidence, but to have this kind of pride. At this level, it is already
It is very rare. In Wang Xiong's opinion, winning the championship is still a luxury, and the time has not come yet.
"Well, our goal is the finals. We can wait until we reach the finals before thinking about other things." Luo Yifan also agreed.
"This time we must give the Americans some color and let them know that we are not easy to bully."
"Yes, but speaking of it, the American team is a dark horse like us. Let's see who is darker this time."
"We must have won. American football is not much better than ours now. As long as we work hard, we will win." Other players also talked about it.
"Training has begun." At this time, Li Zhiming also spoke. But now Li Zhiming is no longer serious, and his face is full of smiles. The goal has been achieved long ago, and the pressure is gone, so naturally he is very relaxed. If
It's better if you can move on, but it's okay even if you can't move on. They are all heroes when they return home. In this case, Li Zhiming was also very happy. He didn't expect that he would be here today.
Following Li Zhiming's words, everyone began to train, and there was no longer the same laughing and joking situation just now.
Before you know it, two days have passed. In these two days, the two quarter-finals have ended. The Brazilian team and the Spanish team defeated their respective opponents and entered the semi-finals, winning two championships.
The biggest favorites will meet in the semi-finals. The schedule is arranged like this, and they have nothing to do. Many people want Brazil and Spain to have another peak showdown, hoping that they will meet in the final, but this time it is impossible to achieve.
As time goes by, the semi-finals between the Chinese team and the American team begin. As long as it is a World Cup game, even in the group stage, it can attract the attention of countless people. The semi-finals naturally attract fans from all over the world.
Eyes, there are 800 million people in China alone watching the live broadcast. Up to now, they have thought a lot about the game. What a wonderful thing it would be if they could enter the finals. That would undoubtedly be a piece of history.
If the opponent was the German team, they would not have such thoughts, but the opponent is the United States, and the strength gap between the two sides is not very big. Everyone naturally has ideas, and their hearts are full of tension and excitement. This is
It was a feeling I had never felt before. The anticipation was very strong.
The semi-finals and finals were both held in Moscow. This is a professional football stadium with 100,000 people built for the bid to host the World Cup. The football stadium was full of people. Everyone cheered at the top of their lungs. This is also true for the fans.
The provincial capital. It’s just a pity that Russia was eliminated early. They couldn’t cheer for their team. Except for Russian fans, half of this football stadium is filled with fans from China and the United States. They all want to witness the historical moment. They are everywhere
Cheers.
Standing in the stadium, listening to the sound. Some players were trembling. This scene was really too big. Just thinking about the tsunami of cheers of 100,000 people knew how powerful it was, and feeling it on the spot was even more overwhelming.
The feeling. Even Wang Xiong took a deep breath.
"The whole world is watching us. We must show dignity." Wang Xiong said to all the players. Only on the court, Wang Xiong is the core, and everyone listens to Wang Xiong consciously. It is precisely because of this
, they are unusually united and perform at the highest level in every game. Now their value has increased significantly. If they sign the contract again, it will be very easy to make tens of millions a year.
At this time, they can't help but not work hard. If they can reach the finals, their worth will increase. This is also one of the motivations for them to play well. Fame, fame, and interests are always the driving force for human development. Of course, they are also everything
The source of conflicts.
"We must win." At the beginning, all the team members surrounded Wang Xiong and shouted in unison.
After all, this is the World Cup semi-final. Both sides are very cautious and do not dare to invest large forces in offense. Instead, they pay more attention to defense. This is also something that cannot be helped. In the group stage, everyone is relaxed and can play
There are many exciting games. But in the knockout round, one goal is likely to determine the final result of the game. They have to be careful, they would rather not score than concede the ball. This is everyone's idea, and it is precisely because of this that the scene is so tense.
It's not that pretty. The fighting is very intense, but there aren't many real threatening attacks.
This is the situation now between the Chinese team and the American team. Both sides spend their time fighting in the midfield and rarely enter the penalty area. The defense of both sides is very fierce. The scene seems a bit boring.
At the end of the half, it was zero to zero. However, as fans of both sides, they were still very nervous. They did not want to see any exciting process at this time. The most important thing was the result. If they won, they would be witnessing it.
a historic moment.
"Everyone played well in the first half, and we will continue to work hard in the second half." At this time, a Football Association official said to everyone in the locker room, probably a vice president of the Football Association.
"This is the locker room, get out." Looking at the man, Wang Xiong said coldly. The locker room is a place for players and coaches. No one else is allowed in.
"Hmph." When the man saw that it was Wang Xiong, he didn't dare to say anything. He snorted coldly and went out. He was also angry in his stomach. Although Wang Xiong said that he was idle now, he couldn't do anything to Wang Xiong.
, but when he thought of an idle person talking to him like this, his face didn't look good. This time the national team was very good, and their Football Association's face was also bright. What's more, it was affirmative. He was naturally very happy, thinking about the locker room.
Work harder. In this case, winning can be regarded as one's own contribution. However, when encountering Wang Xiong's resistance, I feel depressed. Of course, some things have to be kept in my heart. After all, he has no reason to do so.
It won't do him any good to go out and talk nonsense.
"Isn't this shaking the morale of the army?" Wang Xiong shook his head gently. He deeply hated such behavior. The others nodded in agreement. In the past, they all suffered greatly. But Wang Xiong came.
Things got better after that. People from the Football Association sometimes like to play the piano randomly.
"Come on everyone, perseverance is victory. The American team is not very good." Wang Xiong also observed everyone's luck. Today is not good. Only he has some luck. In this case, he should strengthen his shooting in the second half, but
The hit rate will be very low. But in this kind of game, only one goal is enough.
"Come on." When they came out in the second half, everyone shouted loudly, and the mood was very high. There are only a few dozen minutes left, and the result is about to come out. Whether it is to create history or build a homecoming, then watch
It took dozens of minutes to perform.
In the second half, Wang Xiong also stepped up his shooting. They were basically long-range shots. The same was true for the American team. They all wanted to score through long-range shots. However, in this case, it depends on luck. The hit rate of long-range shots is not good.
It will be very high. Sometimes you score with one shot, and sometimes you don't score no matter how hard you shoot. Now both sides are almost the same. Long-range shots are either high or missed. There was no goal in this game until the 90th minute.
.
If the winner cannot be decided at this time, it will be overtime. If the winner cannot be decided after thirty minutes of overtime, it will be a penalty shootout. The last game was won by a penalty shootout.
At the last moment, the Chinese team won a corner kick.
Luo Yifan takes the penalty and Wang Xiong is responsible for the scramble. The opponent's defense is very tight. But Wang Xiong is also fully prepared. This is the last chance. If this goal is scored, they will create history and they will win the final
Victory, but if not, it’s hard to say. We can only continue to fight.
Luo Yifan's kick was of high quality. The ball drew an arc in the air and flew directly towards Wang Xiong. Wang Xiong jumped up high. Now all he could see was the flying ball.
