Chapter 113 Honor and Top Name
After three rounds of Group A, the former world champion France bid farewell to the World Cup in the scandal, but South Africa, which won, only talked about this victory**. After all, they were the first host out of the group stage in the history of the World Cup.
Uruguay and Mexico appeared together. The early exit of the former world champion France and host South Africa was indeed a little unexpected, but the result has already appeared. Even if it is surprised, sighed, and messy feelings can't change the result.
Fortunately, there was no bigger scandal. At least France did not choose to take the initiative to strike, but they chose to resist passively. In the end, they lost 1:2. The former proud son of heaven, the Gallic rooster, returned home in the contempt of people's contempt. What they will face will be a painful and long reconstruction period.
Of course, the reconstruction has nothing to do with Domenek. From the warm-up training before the game, Domenek is like an outsider. When the French team members get together to inspire each other, the old coach Domenek walks around the field with his back as if nothing happened.
At this time, the DJ began to broadcast the French team's list. Whenever a player's name was read, the French fans in the stands would cheer for them, but when the DJ read Domenek's name, the scene was full of boos.
After the preparation activities, the French team members began to practice passing and receiving the ball. At this time, Domenek came to them and exchanged a few words with the assistant coach around him. It could be seen that, at least from the outside world, he was not completely out of control of the team.
After the game, when Domenek saw that South Africa had the upper hand, he chose to return to the coaching seat. Subsequently, the goalkeeper's mistake and Gulkuv's stupid red card made Domenek bow his head. The unlucky coach, who had been pointed at and scolded since taking office, became the biggest laugh in the history of French football. Handle.
It doesn't make sense to say anything now. French football is doomed to be pushed back. The former World Cup champion and European Cup champion have no face to be mentioned here. The rest is just struggling during the pain period and looking forward to the future.
This~~~~~~~~ Maybe it can be!
followed by the game of Group B. The two games started at the same time, one for the first place in the group and the other for honor.
In addition to Belgium, the closest connection with Degan in this World Cup is South Korea, the motherland of his girlfriend Park Ji-yeon. The record of the South Korean team's first five World Cups can be said to be quite bleak. Until the end of the 1998 World Cup in France, South Korea has not yet I won one World Cup, let alone a group promotion.
Until the 2002 World Cup in South Korea and Japan, the South Korean team successfully advanced to the top 16 with two wins and one draw in the group stage, but the promotion of the South Koreans was not convincing.
In the 2006 World Cup in Germany, South Korea defeated Togo in the group stage but was still eliminated. At that time, many old media mentioned old things, using the 2002 farce to satirize South Korean football "it can't play if you leave the mainland".
This time in South Africa, the signs of unconvinced South Korean football continued. In the first 1:4 defeat in Argentina, the second stop was killed and humiliated by Belgium led by South Korean son-in-law Digan and sang a nude version of "Little Apple".
"You are my little apple. I don't love you too much!"
However, in the last scene against South Africa, the Koreans still gained some. At least Xu Dingmao's most reliable striker finally scored, and the old Xu's iron plate's expression finally relaxed. The biggest problem that plagued him for many days was finally released in today's game against Nigeria.
As Monaco's top scorer last season, Park Joo-young's task is of course to rely on his own goals to help the South Korean team win a victory, but Park Joo-yong only had an own goal in the first two games. How could Park Joo-young stand it?
And the feeling free kick in the league was either slightly biased or popped up on the head. All the bad luck and bad luck disappeared after today's World War I. Park Joo-young scored the first direct free kick in the real sense of this World Cup, and he also became South Korea's 19th goal in the history of the World Cup. .
Park Zhouyong's free kick reminds people of Shunsuke Nakamura, but as soon as he arrives at the World Cup, he can't find his free kick.
Park Joong can score a goal. First of all, we have to thank the captain, Park Ji-sung for his self-esteem in South Korean football. Of course, this self-esteem has almost been smashed by Degan in the last game, but Park Ji-sung's performance in this game is still very good. He made a valuable tactical cover. He chose the right side of the Nigerian wall. Squeeze in and let the Nigerian players quickly get closer to him. In fact, he just gave Park Zhouyong a valuable free kick channel.
Park Zhouyong also knew that it was a rare opportunity. He rubbed the far corner of his right instep, and the full moon machete drawn from the left went straight into Nigeria's goal.
After the game, people don't understand why FIFA gave the best on the spot to Park Ji-sung. Do the relevant personnel know this South Korean player?
Don't say that compared with Park Joong, Ji Chengyong's feeling is also better than Park Ji-sung. There is no doubt that in terms of the enthusiasm of attack, Park Joo-young is the best in the team. He is the same in three games. Today, he is in a better state. The whole field shot with five-legged shots, all of which posed a major threat, and he also scored a goal. Ball.
In the game, Park Joo-young entered the penalty area many times and singled out the opponent's double central defenders. To put it simply, in fact, he really sweated for Park Joo-yong.
Yabo, an old qualified defender of Everton, was in the team when China's double Li joined the team. Now he has been the absolute main force who has stood for many years in Toffee. Park Zhouyong, who is 182cm tall, is placed in East Asia. He can't rank tall, nor is he a strong center. Compared with the Nigerian double central defender, his whole body It's even smaller.
But the lifeless stubbornness of the Koreans is very happy in today's Park Joo-yong. They have a solid confrontation with the opposing defenders again and again, not simply knocking them down, but constantly looking for opportunities to give the ball to their teammates in the confrontation and try to tear open the opponent's defense line.
We must sigh that if you put aside shame, the blood of Korean football and the wisdom hidden under courage are really admirable.
It's a pity that Park Joo-young and Lee Jung-soo's scores failed to help the South Korean team win an honor and tied with Nigeria. I'm afraid this honor and self-esteem can only be half of a family.
Another match at the same time is the match between Belgium and Argentina. Previously, both sides won. This game will be directly related to who will be the first in the group.
Before the game, Belgium obviously has a better chance. As long as they draw, they will be the first in the group. Although this first place is meaningless, Uruguay and Mexico are basically no different.
But for the core players of both sides, Messi and Degan, that's different. The two have fought many times before. Whether it's the Champions League or the Olympic Games, Messi has never won even once. This is the first competition in the World Cup. Both of them are full of energy. Messi wants to press the one above his head. After the overturn of Degan's mountain, Degan is ready to continue to defend his advantage over Messi and win the game.
Although Maradona once said that Digan is the number one in the world, as the head coach of Argentina in the World Cup, he has no reason not to help his own people. Although this game has nothing to do with the right to qualify, he still lined up all the elite soldiers in order to help Messi reach the top smoothly.
The goalkeeper is Romero, Gutierrez, Samuel, Demichelis, Heinze, midfield captain Mascherano, PerĂ³n, Di Maria, and Tevez, Higuain and Messi on the forward line.
Belgium seems to be more calm. The goalkeeper chose Miolet, Van Bitten, Vertongheng, Compani and Poconioli on the defensive line, midfielders Fellaini, Simmons and De Bruyne, the front midfielder Dembele, and Digan partner Miralas on the front line.
It can be said that Belgium basically regarded it as a training team in this game, but after the announcement of this starting lineup, Maradona, the king of the ball, was furious.
"Belgians obviously lack enough respect for the World Cup. Looking at their starting lineup, you can know that they regard the Supreme World Cup as a training ground, which is simply unforgivable!"
Mr. Maradona's reaction is a little overreate and somewhat inexplicable. It's their own business that they are willing to send to the stage. You are so excited!
Are you happy to let all the main forces fight with you?
Moreover, the game hasn't started yet. Even if it is this lineup, Belgium is not sure to lose. You are so happy now. Once you lose the game, won't these bullshit be regarded as important evidence for those unscrupulous reporters to slap themselves in the face?
Okay!
Anyway, Coach Antienis did not change his starting lineup because of Mr. Maradona's anger. In South Korea and Nigeria for honor, while another game started, the battle for the top name between Belgium and Argentina also began.
When the players of the two teams entered, played the national anthem, and the players from both sides shook hands, people found an interesting scene. When Degan came to Messi, he was obviously stunned, and then stretched out his hand and took the initiative to hold Messi's hand together. The picture clearly showed that when the two shook hands, Degan was indeed I'm actually laughing.
This picture is also in the future. When something is settled, it will be regarded as a decisive evidence and has been repeatedly hyped up by the media for a long time.
