Chapter 141 Equalization

"Digan scored, which is already the ninth goal he scored in this World Cup, far ahead of Klose and ranked first in the scorer list. Although facing the Brazilian team that has won the World Cup five times, Degan did not have any stage fright. His sharp counterattack pierced the goal of the Brazilian team! Pereira may now understand who is the real genius. When Adriano develops his imagination and thinks about life, Digan is constantly refreshing the number of goals he scored in the World Cup, but Pereira is too late to regret now. Degan now belongs to Belgium and belongs to our Belgium. Pereira, go to hell! Happy birthday to Pereira's mother!"

When the Belgian commentator talked nonsense because of excitement, commentators from other countries were stunned. Although the Belgian team's offensive was very fierce in this game, they never expected that the Belgians would score a goal. It was the Brazilian abandoned degan who scored the goal.

As the defending champion, everyone thinks that they will be the biggest favorite to win this year's World Cup in Germany, and the 18th consecutive World Cup final is also a world record.

In the South American qualifiers of this World Cup, Brazil easily qualified with 9 wins, 7 draws and 2 losses, which is also rare for the Samba Legion to qualify in the qualifiers in advance since recent World Cups.

Compared with the Brazilian team that qualified in the 2002 World Cup qualifiers for Japan and South Korea, it is not what it used to be, and striker Ronaldo also became the best scorer in the South American qualifiers.

The current Brazilian national team is starry, leading the front line are "alien" Ronaldo and Adriano, who is currently red in Serie A giants Inter Milan.

Behind them are Ronaldinho, a new European footballer, and Kaka, who plays for AC Milan, while the main candidates in the back position are Emerson and Zelloto.

Although compared with the strong midfield, the defense line is the weakness of the Brazilian team, the two full defenders are two consecutive World Cup veterans of the Samba Legion, Cafo and Carlos, whose age makes them have to choose between attack and defense. The two central defenders are Juan and Lucio. Their common shortcomings are that they are not stable enough, which also brings hidden dangers to the Brazilian team's defense. However, even if the defense line is weak, their strong attack power can completely make up for the shortcomings in defense.

Brazil is still considered to be the strongest legion in the World Cup, but now the most powerful legion is led by Belgium.

Although facing Belgium, the largest dark horse in this World Cup, and although the Brazilian team has been in poor shape since the start of the game, Brazil was still favored by most people before the game.

But now Brazil is lagging behind, which is really unexpected, and no one can believe it.

Belgium's attack after the opening is indeed very fierce, but the Brazilian team's performance is obviously better. Generally speaking, when the Brazilian team gradually grasps the advantage, they will firmly control the ball under their feet, and it is difficult to break the golden body.

But the reality is 1:0. In the quarter-finals of the World Cup in South Africa, Brazil lags behind. It doesn't matter if you don't believe it or don't want to be convinced. In short, Brazil just lags behind.

Others find it unbelievable, but in Degan's opinion, this is a matter of course. The Brazilian team in this section is indeed strong, but their strength comes more from the praise of the media.

In the previous life, under the circumstances that everyone was optimistic about it, they did not lose to the French team, which was in poor condition, continued internal quarrels and discord.

The reason why Brazil lost in the previous life was that it lost on its own. The loose way of play always passes the ball carelessly in the backcourt, especially once it has mastered the advantage.

Although the Brazilian game is beautiful and the players are skilled, it is often the most invalid game time. Don't want to defeat the opponent with one blow, leaving the opponent a chance to take advantage of. When the score is behind, you can see the rare anxiety and uneasiness of Brazilians. At that time, it was too late. What did you do earlier?

More importantly, in terms of its own strength, there may be no problem with the main lineup, but the Brazilian team is really an 11-man team with only 11 players.

Look at the bench. Although they are famous, in fact, who else can be reused? They are all a bunch of people who are famous than their strength.

So when Brazil fell behind, no one was available at all. Rovinio may be a person, but he has not been integrated into the Brazilian team since he became famous.

Only 11 people is obviously not enough. In such a dense competition, the role of substitutes and rotation cannot be underestimated. Especially when encountering difficulties and the score is behind, there is no special killer figure to give the other party a fatal blow.

In addition, from another slightly "grey" perspective, it is impossible for Brazil to win the championship, although they are always the biggest favorite in the World Cup.

Brazil has won five World Cup championships, and no one can beat such brilliant results. If Brazil succeeds in defending its title in this German World Cup again, it will become a six-star Brazil.

Brazil is strong, and it is understandable that it has won more championships than other countries.

However, don't forget that the World Football Federation is up to Europeans. If Brazil wins the World Cup six times, other countries will stay in Italy at most three times, Germany three times, Argentina twice, football, the world's first sport, has become like table tennis, monopolized by China. Will the enthusiasm for the development of the ball around the world be weakened?

Pereira didn't expect these problems, but he didn't want the Brazilian team to end up at the feet of Degan.

The celebration of the Belgian team finally ended with the intervention of the referee. Looking at the time, another three minutes passed.

The first half is coming to an end, and there is not much time left for the Brazilian team.

Degan has helped Belgium take the lead, and then people begin to look forward to Kaka's performance.

In the first half hour, Kaka's performance can be said to be excellent, and what is missing now is a goal.

After losing the ball, the Brazilian team immediately launched a big counterattack, but their old problems also began to attack at this time, especially the emperor superstars in the midfield, who began to become impatient one by one. Most of the time, they were fighting alone and did not pay attention to cooperation at all.

Pereira walked to the sidelines several times to remind his players loudly, but unfortunately, the effect is not great. Brazil's so-called front-court dream quartet has now become a complete joke.

In contrast, on Belgium's side, after scoring a goal, the players' morale was boosted and they became more confident. When defending, they also became more fierce. It is not that Belgium became conservative after taking the lead. Once they have a good opportunity, they are still very determined to attack.

Belg is not conservative, and Digan and Mponta Jr. often threaten the back defense of the Brazilian team. In this way, Brazil has no way to make a desperate attack, which directly causes a disconnect between the front and backfield.

Pereira is also anxious. If the ball is cut off by Belgium at this time, the Brazilian team will not be able to organize an effective defense.

The game seems to be moving in favor of Belgium.

This situation is what Degan wants to see most. The current Brazilian team makes it easy for him to think of Brazil, which led the 10 years of World Cup in his previous life. At that time, the Brazilian team vowed to win the championship, but it was ended by the Netherlands.

In that game, the Brazilian team scored a goal, but was overtaken by the tenacious Dutch in the second half. The score fell behind, which made the Brazilian manic in an instant. Although they had a group of talented players such as Kaka, they could not form an effective attack. In the end, they were helplessly defeated and were once again blocked by the threshold of the semi-finals. Outside.

In the previous life, with the elimination of Brazil, Dunga's position as the head coach of the Brazilian team will also come to an end. Dunga then announced his resignation at the post-match press conference. Although he had vowed and full of confidence, he would not only lead Brazil to win the championship in South Africa, but also lead Brazil to return to the mainland to win the World Cup again four years later. However, after losing to the Netherlands, such a heavy responsibility can only be left to the next.

The same is true of Pereira, who is now sitting in the position of the coach of the Brazilian team. After losing to France in his previous life, he was safely dismissed, but now everything has been changed. This time, it is Belgium that will end the Brazilian.

Seeing that his team could not threaten Belgium's goal, Pereira gradually panicked. He was watching the bench, but there were not many people who could surprise him on the bench.

The stubborn Pereira has been suffering since he took the position of head coach of the Brazilian team, not only because of his preference for defensive play, of course, this is just an excuse to criticize him. Even if Brazil plays beautifully, it is always difficult to escape the bad luck of being criticized.

For many years, the head coach of the Brazilian team has been the most envied position of football coaches in the world, because compared with other teams, Brazil has too many talented players to choose from.

But the head coach of the Brazilian team has also been the most difficult job, because in a football country like Brazil, 200 million people are equivalent to 200 million football coaches. Everyone can talk about the team's lineup and playing style.

The Brazilian media criticizes the team's conservatism, rigidity and ugliness every day, losing the usual gorgeous attack of Brazilian football. Therefore, the pressure can be imagined.

Especially for Dunga. In the 1994 World Cup in the United States, Pereira, the coach, led the team to lift the Hercules Cup, but his ugly tactics have never been accepted by Brazilians.

What's more, since he returned to the position of head coach of the Brazilian team, Pereira has relied on veterans and abandoned many Brazilian favorite stars: Diego, Batistuta, Macon, Alves, Fabiano, etc., or when playing or young players, they are all abandoned by him.

If you look at world football, only the Brazilian team has such extravagant courage to give up so many stars. However, to be honest, Pereira's Brazilian team is not ugly. Relying on the personal performance of the midfield players alone can make the game pleasing. They are just unlucky.

Pereira shouted to rule the army with an iron fist all day long, claiming that he doesn't want any player who doesn't like defense, any big-name player with personality and temper. He is a person with a temper, and he doesn't allow anyone under his account to challenge his authority.

So he abandoned Digan's former teammate Maxwell, abandoned McCon, who was talented in attack and defense, and would rather choose to get old and older and fail to play the main force in the club.

Pereira is strict with some players, but especially condoning some players, such as Adriano!

It's not just that Degan said in an interview before the game: I didn't see which point he was better than me!

Fans all over the world have not seen where Adriano is better than Degan, but Pereira just likes Adriano.

Even Ronaldo has to stand aside!

At this time, the situation of the Brazilian team is very bad, and Ronaldo is the most anxious!

Ronaldo is still running, and he is even wondering if his World Cup is over.

He is 30 years old, will there be the next World Cup?

In Brazil, where there are many talented and reserve talents, will he still reserve a place for the 34-year-old Ronaldo in four years?

As a generation of superstars and the World Footballer of the Year, Ronaldo has enough honors, but his desire for a World Cup champion will never be satisfied.

Don't mention winning the championship in 1994. Although Ronaldo has that gold medal, I believe he will not admit that he won the World Cup.

At that time, he was only 17 years old and was completely the most marginal figure in the Brazilian national team. He didn't even get a minute to play. The 2002 World Cup was his world. His goal helped Brazil win the final championship. Ronaldo, who is now 30 years old, wants to do it again and hold the Hercules Cup with his own hands again.

In addition to Ronaldo, Kaka is also in a hurry.

Kaka is in his golden age, but although this Brazil has become a favorite to win the championship, in fact, this is the real Brazil without desire. The main players in the team are the framework for winning the World Cup in 2002.

Most of them have tasted the honor of being the World Cup champion. They are no longer so enthusiastic about the World Cup champion. Although Kaka works hard, there is nothing he can do. He is unable to reverse Brazil's unmotivated.

At that time, there were too many big-name predecessors in the team, Xiao Luo wearing 10 and No. 9 Da Luo.

Some people even say that ensuring Ronaldo's best scorer in World Cup history may be Brazil's only goal.

Ronaldo has written into history as he wishes, and may only write the name of the next person in the history book, so it is not Kaka's turn.

Will Kaka accept his fate?

Obviously not!

He has to make a last effort, and he hopes to continue on the stage of the World Cup.

Towards the end of the first half, Emerson made a mistake and passed the ball to Buffer's feet. In the face of the sudden gift, Buffer was obviously not prepared. When Kaka rushed over, he passed the ball in a panic and was directly cut off by Kaka.

After the ball was cut off, Kaka rushed all the way to the Belgian team's penalty area.

In an instant, the Belgian defenders were relaxed and there was nothing they could do. After all, the first half was already reading the seconds and could end at any time. The Brazilian team didn't seem to want to continue to attack and save strength for the second half. No one expected that Emerson and Buffer made a series of mistakes, but let Kaka seize the opportunity. .

Compani came forward to intercept, but he slowed down. Kaka's technology is not very outstanding, but his assault ability is absolutely the world's top. Once he gets the ball and rushes up, it is basically impossible to stop him.

Compani failed, followed by Vandombole. He didn't even have time to make defensive action and was directly divided by the Kaka man ball. When Kaka rushed past him, he only felt a strong wind blowing around him.

Single knife!

"Opportunity! Kaka faced the Belgian goalkeeper Proto directly, and Brazil got the best chance in the first half!"

The best opportunity is also the last chance in the first half!

No one knows what tactics Belgium will adopt in the second half. Once they defend with all their strength as they did before against France, the Brazilian team will really suffer.

One goal behind and facing the opponent's iron barrel array. Once there is a problem with the mentality of the players on the field of the Brazilian team, what the Belgians need to do is to boil the frog in warm water and boil the five-star Brazil to death.

At this moment, Kaka's mind suddenly became particularly calm. He could even hear his heartbeat. Proto pounced in front of him. Kaka tilted and pushed the ball gently with his arch. The football passed between Proto's legs, and then~~~~~~

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!"

This heroic shout is the patent of South Americans. The Brazilian commentator's voice was particularly loud and exciting. He was bored for too long. Now he finally got a chance to be released. How could he let it go?

"Kaka! Kaka! Kaka! Kaka! Kaka! Kaka scored a goal! He helped the Brazilian team equalize the score. An incredible long-distance attack, Kaka's speed and destructive power made the Belgians helpless, Kaka! God gave the great genius to the Brazilians!"

Seeing the goal, Kaka instantly regained his hearing and became manic around him. He wanted to run wildly to celebrate, but was hugged tightly by Adriano, who rushed over, followed by Ronaldo and Ronaldinho. More and more Brazilian players rushed into the Belgian's penalty area and hugged Together, roaring loudly and celebrating.

The Brazilian fans in the stands also exploded at this moment. In their opinion, this is the tone of the game. Now that the score has been equalized, it's time to overtake.
