Chapter 908 Battle of Shooters, Decisive Battle Against Uruguay

Krauchen wondered if he had made a mistake in letting Zheng Zhi shuffle the cards. After all, if Zheng Zhi received another yellow card in the third round, the World Cup would be suspended. He didn't want to be without Zheng Zhi in the knockout stage, so When he faced the French team in the second round, he once reminded Zheng Zhi to shuffle the cards...

But facing Uruguay this afternoon, he felt that Zheng Zhi was too important. Zheng Zhi is the real core midfielder of the Chinese team.

Even Huang Jianxiang thinks so.

"Without Zheng Zhi, I always feel a little less calm."

"Klauchen also put Dong Fangzhuo on the bench, so wouldn't the strength of the Chinese team have to drop by at least one and a half levels? Chen Tao can still challenge, but he is too soft. The original Wang Yongpo can also consider it, but he was He's been kicked out of the team. It's a pity for Deng Zhuoxiang. If he hadn't been injured, maybe the Chinese team could have let him practice."

"There is no core midfielder, and without Dong Fangzhuo playing, the Chinese team is really not optimistic. Uruguay, on the other hand, is attacking with a strong formation. Does Krauchen really want the Chinese team to touch Argentina? I can't imagine it. Argentina could lose to Greece in the final round..."

"I will adjust my tactics based on the results of the match between China and Uruguay." In the hotel where Argentina was staying, Maradona sat on the sofa in the hotel, turned on the TV, and quietly waited for the match between China and Uruguay to start.

"Uruguay won, that was a bad result." In Maradona's view, encountering the Chinese team was actually better than encountering the Uruguay team. Many teams are afraid of the Chinese team, but Maradona hopes to meet the Chinese team. He does not want to meet the Uruguay team, which is also from South America. In the South American qualifiers, Argentina did not take any advantage when they met Uruguay. Instead, they were pushed by Uruguay. Naturally, they did not want to encounter them in the World Cup.

On the contrary, it is the Chinese team. Can Dong Fangzhuo really get excited and make trouble? Encountering Messi's leading attacking group is just the right time to avenge the 2008 Olympics!

The 2008 Olympics was a confrontation between the Olympic teams, but now it is a confrontation between the World Cup! There is no doubt that the Argentine national team can ravage the Chinese team. Maradona is so confident.

Therefore, he hopes that Argentina can play against the Chinese team. Messi and Argentine fans also think so.

So, please, Uruguayans, please do your best!

Then, Maradona touched his bearded chin again and sighed: "The upper half..."

"It would be great if Argentina went to the top half."

"If Argentina tops the group and everything goes well, it will be the German team that advances from eight to four, right?"

Germany……

He doesn't like Germany.

"It's better to be in the upper half."

His eyes kept moving, and he came up with a lot of bad ideas. As the world champion of the last century, it was not too much to do something bad?

The more he thought about it, the more beautiful it became. He picked up the mobile phone in his hand and made a call.

"Hey Baby……"

"I'll be later..."

He is the Argentine coach, not an Argentine player, and he doesn't have so many rules.

In order to put pressure on the Chinese team, UEFA President Platini even personally delivered a speech before the game: "What is the spirit of competitive sports? That is fair play. I hope we can see this in the last round of games." spirit. Why is European football developing so well? It’s because we are professional enough.”

Although Platini didn't say much, every word he said was directed at China...

Subsequently, media from many European countries joined the discussion. After all, France is not the only one facing this situation. For example, Italy, Germany, and Spain are all experiencing this situation, but they are not as tragic as France's situation...

FIFA also had to stand up and issue an official announcement before the game: We will monitor some key matches that may be manipulated.

In order to avoid gambling and unfair competition, and the last match between the Chinese team and Uruguay was seriously concerned, we must ensure the spirit of fair competition.

In fact, it is not surprising at all to play tacit football in the World Cup.

A famous tacit understanding in the history of the World Cup occurred in 1982. West Germany and Austria worked together to "produce" the result of West Germany's 1:0 victory. Both teams beat Algeria to qualify with a goal difference advantage. The tacit understanding of the European Cup is even more famous. In 2004, Denmark and Sweden used a tacit understanding of 2:2 to prevent Italy from qualifying.

But in fact, FIFA does not need to be so worried, because considering that the match situation in the 1/8 finals is A1-B2, A2-B1, and the first place in Group B is likely to be won by Argentina, which has won both games and is about to qualify, so Neither the Chinese team nor Uruguay want to encounter Argentina, and there is the possibility of fighting hard to avoid encountering Argentina in the final battle.

Everyone is overthinking it!

Rustenburg, South Africa.

Rustenburg is a tourist city in South Africa. The city is small, but the scenery is very beautiful. Today is the day with the largest flow of people in the history of Rustenburg.

The Chinese fans who came here almost filled every street, and it was so densely packed with red that the locals felt a little panicked.

Tens of thousands of Chinese fans poured into Rustenburg, just like a division of troops. Even if the local criminals wanted to rob, they had to consider whether their own people could beat the Chinese.

Chinese fans quickly entered the stadium and occupied nearly two-thirds of the seats. Compared with the second game, their number was larger.

Needless to say, this is another home stadium for a Chinese team.

The Uruguayan fans who came to the scene were surprised. They knew there were many Chinese fans, but they didn't expect there to be so many.

A video of Chinese fans singing "Ode to the Motherland" at the stadium has become a popular video on the Internet. Everyone has experienced the madness of Chinese fans.

The Uruguayan TV reporter at the scene shouted to the camera:

"There is no point in having too many people. The key is that the people who play football are useful. The French are afraid of the Chinese, but we are not afraid."

"Our Fran, although fourth in the European Golden Boot,"

"Our Cavani was the second top scorer in Serie A last season,"

"Our Suarez is the top scorer in the Eredivisie,"

"Our team is a team that even Argentina and Brazil are afraid of,"

"We beat France in the first round, we just lacked luck."

"So, we have to believe that Uruguay will be able to defeat the Chinese team!"

"We want to get first place in the group."

Yes, Uruguayan fans and the Uruguay team have the same idea, they both want to defeat the Chinese team.

At this time, there was still more than half an hour before the game, but the stadium was already full. The two sides finally began to announce the starting lineup:

Uruguay has three arrows fired!

Uruguay:

Goalkeeper: Muslera

Defenders: Pereira, Fusile, Victorino, Lugano

Midfielder: A. Pereira, Perez, Rios

Forwards: Cavani, Suarez, Forlan

As for the Chinese team, Dong Fangzhuo is on the list!

Goalkeeper: Zeng Cheng

Defenders: Zhang Linpeng, Li Weifeng, Feng Xiaoting, Sun Xiang

Midfielder: Huang Bowen, Zhao Xuri, Feng Renliang, Dong Fangzhuo, Mao Jianqing

Forward: Gao Lin

! ! !

"I knew the old man wasn't that simple!"

"Smoke bomb? What's the use? I've always thought you would start him."

Seeing Dong Fangzhuo's name, Uruguay coach Tavares sneered.

But no matter how you change, Uruguay will not change. Uruguay will not leave its destiny to others.

"Dong came back to play in the midfield, but they lacked Zheng. The two wingers have speed, but they have my trident."

Tavares has full confidence in the forward combination of Suarez, Forlan and Cavani.

No matter how you look at it, it is impossible for the Chinese team to stop it.

If France hadn't been more conservative in the first game, it would have been impossible for France to get a draw.

There is also no fuss on Krauchen's side. If Uruguay wants to win, it will naturally have to play with the strongest lineup.

But the Chinese team can still advance if they fail. Dong Fangzhuo's presence on the court can at least act as a deterrent. Uruguay must be careful if they want to attack wildly.

※※※※

In the CCAV live broadcast room, Huang Jianxiang and the others had already discussed it after getting the starting lineups of both sides.

"This is a competition for shooters. Forlan now ranks behind Dong Fangzhuo with 3 goals. Suarez is also sharpening his skills. Cavani is also looking forward to breaking his fast. Uruguay is very murderous."

"All three Uruguayans wanted to score from the Chinese team."

"These three forwards have their own characteristics. Forlan can pass and shoot. He is a very comprehensive forward."

"Cavani has a great body and a powerful shot."

"Suarez has excellent foot skills and strong explosive power. He is a bit like Ronaldo."

"This is an enhanced version of the French striker. We must be clear that Uruguay is not France."

From Huang Jianxiang's words, he is very afraid of Uruguay's striker.

"Our forward is Gao Lin. Everyone knows that Gao Lin's most important task is not to score goals. Dong Fangzhuo is the key. Even Mao Jianqing and Feng Renliang's goal scoring tasks are more prominent."

"Our frontcourt is definitely at a disadvantage compared to Uruguay, because there is only one Dong Fangzhuo, while Uruguay has three excellent forwards at the same time, but we need a draw, Uruguay needs three points, and the technical and tactical requirements of both sides are different. "

"Today Zheng Zhi is suspended. Dong Fangzhuo wears the captain's armband. Uruguay captain Forlan is on his right. Two former Manchester United forwards each play as captains. This scene is rare. Manchester United fans must be very touched. One is Manchester United. The most efficient forward in history, one is the most offset forward in the history of Manchester United. This is the third time they have met. Previously, Dong Fangzhuo represented Manchester United and fought against the Spanish Yellow Submarine in Forlan. At that time, Dong Fangzhuo won completely." "Today Dong Fangzhuo won. He no longer has helpers like Rooney and Ronaldo around him, but Forlan has Suarez and Cavani around him."

"Who will win in the battle of shooters?"

The two sides exchanged team flags, guessed coins, and picked sides. As a result, Uruguay took the lead in taking the kick-off, while Dong Fangzhuo chose the half court on the side closer to the Chinese fans.
