.....

So far, there have been two seats in the quarter-finals.

But for England fans, as well as Gao Bo and his players.

What they are most concerned about is the first knockout game in the second half.

The game between the Netherlands and Mexico.

Because, if England beat Greece to advance to the quarter-finals, the winner of this game will be their opponents in the quarter-finals.

The training task of the day was not heavy.

Players only focus on physical recovery training. At this stage, it is impossible for Gao Bo to arrange any high-intensity training.

At most, there will be some set-piece tactical drills to enrich the team's attacking discussions.

At this stage of a tournament system, physical fitness is the most important thing!

No physical fitness!

Everything is out of the question.

Gao Bo and the coaching staff watched the game between the Netherlands and Mexico.

After all, it is a potential opponent, and it is still necessary to observe and observe.

In the first half, the two teams attacked and defended each other, but in general, the Dutch team had the greater advantage.

Their overall strength, after all, is stronger than the Mexican team, and it is not surprising that this situation occurs.

But to say how entertaining the game is, that's not necessarily the case.

In the first half, the two sides combined only three shots, the Netherlands shot twice, but missed the target, and Mexico once, also missed.

All in all, the first half of the game was extremely boring!

And it's the second half!

Not long after the game, the members of the coaching staff were a little excited.

Because Mexico scored! !

Only 165 seconds into the second half!

Dos Santos stopped the opponent's header in the chest to make a clearance, got rid of Blind's marking, and volleyed with his left foot from 25 meters in front of the goal. The ball bounced at the hand of goalkeeper Cillesson and got into the lower right corner, 1-0! !

The goal made England's coaching staff extremely excited.

Because, if it is Mexico in the quarter-finals, England will be more certain to enter the semi-finals!

After all, the Netherlands is the uncrowned king of the World Cup. Their strength is quite strong. In the group stage, they once humiliated the defending champion Spain 5-1!

The face of the Netherlands, England's pressure is still great.

However, it is different if it is Mexico.

However, the final result of the game disappointed members of the coaching staff.

Van Gaal made a crucial adjustment.

In the 55th minute of the game, Van Gaal replaced the wonder boy Memphis Depay and replaced Verhach.

And after the substitution, the Dutch team's offense quickly picked up!

However, Ochoa, the Mexican goalkeeper, played his magic weapon and saved the Dutch team's must-scoring opportunities several times!

Until the eighty-eighth minute of the game!

Robben took a corner kick from the right, Huntelaar headed back from the back post, and Sneijder volleyed the ball into the lower left corner from 14 meters in front of the goal, 1-1!

In the 2nd minute of stoppage time, Robben broke into the bottom line on the right side of the penalty area, and faced Max stretched his legs and fell to the ground, Proenza whistled a penalty kick! Max got a yellow card, and Guardado also got a yellow card for protesting. Huntelaar, who missed nearly 3 penalty kicks in the Bundesliga, took the penalty and advanced to the lower left corner, 2-1!

Holland beat Mexico!

Successfully advanced to the quarter-finals, where they await England and Greece.
