"Okay! Dear viewers! Welcome to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, a much-anticipated match in the quarter-finals, against two teams from Europe, England, against Greece!! "
"This time, will England continue to advance, or the Greeks will continue their Greek mythology!"
"Ninety minutes later, we will see the difference!!!"
On the commentary stand, commentator Letkinson took a deep breath and roared loudly.
"Let's take a look first, the starting list of both sides!!"
"First of all, on the England side, the starting goalkeeper is still Joe Hart, the centre-back combination is Maguire partner Gary Cahill, left-back Luke Shaw, right-back Trippier!! The waist Gerrard is partnered with Henderson, Rooney is playing No. 10 today, behind Vardy, and on both sides, are England's two fast horses... Sterling and Adam White!"
"On the Greek side, goalkeeper Karnezis, central defenders Manu Shit and Papastathopoulos, right defender Torosidis, left defender Holebas, three midfielders Karagounis, Maniatis, Samarias, forwards on the left and right are Salpingidis, Samaras, and center Christozulopoulos!"
Letkinson almost didn't mention it when he was done with the bunch of Greek names.
at the same time!
Inside the player tunnel!
The starters of both sides have lined up!
The Greeks seemed to be really like beasts. They gritted their teeth and stared firmly at the exit ahead.
It seems like a gladiator who is about to appear in the Colosseum of ancient Rome!
On the other hand, look at their opponents.
England's players are much calmer.
Captain Gerrard with the captain's armband, from the end of the team, high-fives with his teammates one by one.
Then he stood in front and grabbed the caddie beside him.
When the referee gave a signal, he turned his head and shouted to the goalkeeper Hart behind him, and then took the first step forward.
Players emerge from the player tunnel on the pitch.
The sound at the scene suddenly surged as if the tide had reached the top.
Rooney stood at the end of the line.
This is the team's top treatment for non-captains.
"The game is about to start!!!"
On the commentary table, the commentators were also ready.
....
After a series of ceremonies before the game.
After picking the edge.
England got the kick-off.
Vardy had the ball under his feet, with Rooney beside him.
Sterling and Adam White are separated.
With the whistle of the referee!
The game officially begins! !
The players of the Greek team were aggressive, and they rushed up immediately!
With such an aura, the average player would probably be frightened in front of them.
However, after so many days of indoctrination by Gao Bo, the players of the England team have achieved a relatively calm face to the fight.
Gerrard stomped the ball and passed it back to Maguire.
Maguire catches the ball.
Henderson, Trippier, and Luke Shaw all began to approach consciously, looking for an angle for Maguire to pass the ball.
The moment Maguire catches the ball.
He can then have three passing direction options.
At this moment, Guardiola, who was watching the live broadcast somewhere in Spain, was slightly taken aback.
This is obviously his routine, but Su Yan just picked it up and used it.
Henderson received the ball with his back and did not turn, but pushed the ball directly to the wing.
Luke Shaw was not in a hurry to drive the ball forward at high speed after he got the ball.
He stopped the ball and passed it to Gary Cahill in the face of a press.
A few passes and the momentum of the Greek team's fight was completely extinguished.
"England played patiently!"
Letkinson breathed a sigh of relief when he saw such a scene.
Take control and kick.
Greece's chances are definitely not as many as England's.
That's for sure, because England is stronger than Greece.
The worst thing is fighting.
In a chaotic war, accidents are most likely to occur.
The Greeks want the unexpected.
The English don't want to.
Gao Bo sat on the coach's bench and didn't get up.
Now is not the time for teams to ramp up their offense.
When describing this game, Gao Bo described the game against the Greek team as a bullfighting performance.
The bullfighter needs to constantly tease the angry bull with red silk, which consumes the bull's physical strength.
The spearmen bled the bull when its blood flow was at its highest.
Followed by the flower marker, the matador took turns to go into battle, consuming the bull's last physical strength.
Then, the bullfighter was killed with a sword, killing the angry bull completely!
Now, England is about to put itself in the role of the bullfighter.
What they are doing now is constantly teasing an angry bull! !
The Greeks kept going up and down.
England, on the other hand, continued to pass the ball back and forth in the backcourt.
If the game continues like this, the physical strength of the Greek players will definitely be exhausted first.
The head coach of the Greek team also sees the problem with this.
He came to the sidelines, frowning at the current situation.
This is very bad for the Greek team.
Because their strength is at a disadvantage, if the spirit of the opening is worn away.
Losing is almost a certainty.
Fernando Santos gritted his teeth.
England's current style makes him a little difficult to ride a tiger!
Taking it back will frustrate the spirit of the players of the Greek team, which was finally encouraged.
Continue to fight... The physical exertion is too much!
England's current strategy is to capture the hearts of the weak Greeks, without any rush!
How to do?
Fernando Santos couldn't come up with a solution either, he gritted his teeth.
Just fight it! !
At this stage, we won the fight and entered the quarterfinals.
Lose, go home!
Anyway, it is a miracle that the Greek team can come this far.
Then... pray for another miracle to happen!
....
Miracles didn't happen.
The Greek team grabbed 15 minutes in the opening game and couldn't go on.
Because they sprint continuously for short distances, it consumes a lot of physical energy.
England, on the other hand, rely on passing the ball to mobilize their opponents, and they consume very little physical energy.
So, after fifteen minutes, the Greeks had to make some adjustments to give the players a little breather.
Gao Bo was keenly aware of this when the Greeks had just withdrawn.
He was on the sidelines.
This is a clear signal!
England's players began to press up.
Pass the ball with two feet, to the right of the frontcourt!
Sterling has the ball!
Facing the opposing defender.
Gao Bo's words sounded in Sterling's ears: "Remember, you are a matador!"
He looked at the Greek defense.
Very strict!
They, but a strong bull.
He stepped on the ball, and the Greek left-back Holebas pounced.
Sterling's foot buckled, like a matador's quick turn!
Deducted Hollebas!
"Beep!!"
The whistle sounded.
Hollebas behind the foul!
Yellow card!
