Chapter 576 England misses madman Lee
On June 13, the third match of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
The fog in the HPC sports center was very thick. Out of the main building, I stood on the steps and looked at it. The training ground in the distance was shrouded in white fog, and the tall trees on the side of the field could be faintly seen... The air was very fresh!
The players of the Argentine team got up very early. Most of them were eating in the restaurant after washing up. At this time, they heard that the whistle on the training ground in the distance had sounded quickly... It was the coach urging the players to gather and start training!
"Wow, Xie Te, I'm going to be late!"
"Quick, hurry up, I guess the boss is already waiting on the sidelines..."
"Oh my God, I'm not full yet!!"
The hammers were in a mess. Some had rye bread in their mouths, some took a big sip of milk, and their lips were still milky white... However, after hearing the whistle, no one dared to neglect. They got up and hurried to the side of the training ground... When they came to the side of the field, they clearly saw the one wearing Sportswear, whistling and waiting for their coach's face with a whistle in their mouth, everyone was shocked!!
It turned out to be [God of War] Gabriel Batistuta.
"HELLO, boys, the training is about to begin. If anyone is lazy in training, I will train him fiercely. I won't be polite at all, hum!!"
[God of War] Put on a fierce POSE and scare him with full momentum.
But the players of the Argentine team obviously don't care about it at all. They are extremely excited to be able to fight side by side with their idols. In the early morning of the HPC Sports Center, bursts of cheers broke out... The third match of the World Cup in South Africa.
Royal Bamford Stadium in Rustenburg.
With the whistle of the referee, the first game of the high-profile Group C group match - the game between the Three Lions England and the United States, kicked off with a lot of attention!
As one of the favorites of this World Cup, England was favored by many media, experts and fans before the game. It was stimulated by the previous Argentina team's 5-0 victory over Nyalia. Countless English fans are looking forward to a big victory for the Three Lions at the Royal Baan Fircon Stadium!
England's start was very smooth. In the 212th second of the game, England made a dream start, the Reds Liverpool soul Gerrard scored successfully, and the Three Lions made a dream start!
More than 30,000 English fans in the stands have become a sea of excitement!
Even Fabio Capello, who has always been calm and calm, couldn't help turning around on the sidelines with an excited face and clenched his fist fiercely!
Everything seems to be going according to the expected trajectory of the media and fans.
However, the next development made countless English fans cover their faces in shame - the 40th minute of the game.
Seeing that the first half is coming to an end, the most incredible thing has happened since the start of this World Cup. In the face of a non-threatening shot from the U.S. midfielder Dempsey, Capello's selected goalkeeper Green unexpectedly leaked the football from his arm into the goal... The whole world is crazy at this moment. It's done!
Such a shameful scene actually happened to the popular Three Lions. At this moment, looking back to the traditions of the previous English goalkeepers, people suddenly found that low-level mistakes have become the 'glorious tradition' of the Three Lions!!
The English commentator lamented: "How nostalgic Joe Hart in the madman Lee era is. Unfortunately, although Manchester City goalkeeper was selected on the list, he sat on the bench because of a sprained finger, otherwise..."
In the second half, Capello dispatched troops. In order to strengthen the attack, [Angel] Nicolas Gigi and [Bear] Andy Carroll got the opportunity to play one after another. However, the two rookies obviously did not adapt to the atmosphere of the national team. They did not cooperate with their teammates tacitly enough. The single-knife ball sent by Gigi was shot by Rooney. In the arms of the American goalkeeper Howard, Carol headed the goal twice... The first game of the Three Lions' World Cup in South Africa, in such a hustle and bustle, started with a dream goal and ended with a loss of shame!
1:1!
This is the third draw of this World Cup!
After the game, angry English fans shouted to hang the culprit 'Butterman' Green in South Africa, and Capello, as the team's coach, was also criticized and questioned from all sides. Among them, the conservative choice of the famous Italian coach in terms of employment was the most criticized, and everyone thought that Beckham and Gigi , both Carol and Owen should have a chance to start, instead of being put on the bench... Capello's explanation is that Owen has just recovered from injury, his state is unstable, and Beckham is not physical... However, angry English fans don't listen at all!
The front-page article of the English Times wrote the voices of many Lions fans: "We want to miss the magical madman Li..."
... After that, another game in Group C was played at the Peter Mocaba Stadium in Pologani. The two sides fought fiercely for 90 minutes. In the end, Algeria, known as the [African Fox], lost 0:1 to Slovenia!
There was a more incredible scene in the game. In the face of the shot of the Slovenian captain, the Algerian goalkeeper suddenly wanted to use his own mi. Mi pushed the football out, but he made a tragic mistake!
After the end of the two battles in Group C, Slovenia unexpectedly ranked first in the group with 3 points, England and the United States ranked second, and Algeria ranked third!
............HPC Sports Center.
After watching the England team's game in the room, Lao Li was a little disappointed.
His former direct lines Gigi, Beckham, Alan Smith and Owen were all on the bench. Capello's team's midfield performance was very messy. 'Shuangde' did not call at all. Lennon on the sideline had no highlights except speed... Turning off the TV, Li Tongfan took out his mobile phone to Beckham and Owen. Several people sent a comforting text message each, and soon, within a minute or two, several guys texted back - Beckham: "Li, thank you... I miss working with you very much!"
Owen: "Will you come back to Newcastle after the World Cup?"
Gigi: "I'm sorry, boss, I didn't score a goal, which disappointed you..."
Andy Carroll: "But Perot doesn't deserve to coach England at all. He can't bring us victory..."
Lao Li looked at the text message and smiled. The content of the four people's text messages returned vividly and vividly reflected their surname. David's gentleman was subtle, Owen was straightforward, Jiji was full of reverence for himself, and Carol was fearless... "I wish you good luck!!"
Li Tongfan threw his mobile phone to **. I don't know why, Li Tongfan has a very strong hunch that Argentina and England will definitely meet in the knockout match, just like a kind of fate... Time flies in the fierce war.
With the fierce fighting on the battlefield in South Africa, the rich families gradually unveiled the mystery and appeared in front of fans all over the world!
June 14th.
According to the fourth match of the World Cup in South Africa, the four teams in Group D launched a fierce competition.
Pretoria Loftos Stadium.
Ghana, a strong African team, meets Serbia on a narrow road!
Ghana is famous for its 2-2 draw with the madman Lee's Argentine team in the pre-match warm-up match, while Serbia has the Red Devils defense core Vidic, Blues Chelsea iron guard Ivanovic and Inter Milan midfielder Stankovic, whose strength is not weak!
The media and experts agreed before the game that it would be a distance game, which also proved to be true!
Ghana finally relied on the penalty kick of striker Gian, 1:0 immediately Serbia!
Two hours later, another focus battle in Group D ignited the smoke - the German chariot and the Australian kangaroo, fought endlessly at the Durban Stadium in Durban. Due to the absence of heavyweight stars such as Barak in the German team, whether Hedira, Ozil and other newcomers can stir up the midfield is widely doubted by the media. The decline of the strength of the young German team seems inevitable. In the face of the Australian team, which is also strong and not weak, many people think that the chariot may be Will fall into a hard battle!
However, the truth is completely the opposite - the Germans played a big victory. [Prince] Podolski scored in the 8th minute to make a dream start for the German team. After that, Kloz, Mueller and Kakao, the three strikers, King Kong, scored one goal each, and finally swept the Australian team 4-0. This record , creating the biggest score in a single game since Argentina's 5-0!
The big score is still secondary. The control and fluency of the German team in the game even far exceeded that of the crazy Li's Argentine team. The performance of midfielders Ozil, Khedira and Thomas Mueller made fans and the media all over the world shine. Countless football experts are exclaiming: Germany The national team has made a gorgeous turn!
"The German chariot sets off a storm of youth"
"The German team becomes a strong rival of the Argentines"
"New nuclear Ozil said bluntly that the German team is stronger, not afraid of the madman Li 5:0!!"
...South African gunpowder smoke continues.
April 15th.
The fifth competition arrived as scheduled, and the Group E competition began.
Johannesburg's football city ball.
The Netherlands beat Denmark 2-0. In the first half, Liverpool central defender Danny Agger made his own goal and scored the first goal of the World Cup. In the second half, Liverpool player Kuit scored the goal!
Bron von Dan's Free State Stadium.
The Japanese team defeated the African lion Cameroon team 1-0. The Japanese demon Honda Keisuke, who rose rapidly last season, continued his magic and scored the only goal in the whole game!
... As time went by, the atmosphere of the HPC Sports Center began to tense again.
Argentine players also have a little more solemnity and a little less laughter on the training ground, because the second match between Argentina and the [Taiji Tigers] South Korean team is coming. Although the strength of the South Koreans is far less than that of the Argentine team, no one dares to be careless. The World Cup game will never be given to anyone. Another chance!
