Chapter 616 Adjustment of the Blue and White Legion! The birth of the top 8

With eleven bans and a fine of 100,000 pounds, FIFA's punishment for the madman Li is not small. And such a final result suddenly blocked the indignant mouth of the people with ulterior motives, leaving them speechless for a while. Even most of the fans and the media who are "no big deal" said that they could accept such a final penalty.

After all, there is history for such a thing - when [Big Phil] Scolari, when he coached the Portuguese team, he also played an old punch against Serbian player Dragutinović in the game. The plot was completely similar to the incident of the madman Lee, but at that time, FIFA's penalty for Scolari, but It's much lighter than the madman Li - the Brazilian coach was also banned, but only five games, and these five games were all postponed to a year later.

In addition to the madman Li, the main party of another [fighting incident], Mexican coach Caralgado, was directly banned by FIFA for 20 games and fined £50,000.

For Caralgado, the punishment for 20 games seems to be extremely harsh, but in a practical sense, it is far lower than the punishment for the madman Li. Because Caralgado was originally just an ordinary tactical coach of the team, and the most important work was carried out off the field. It didn't make any sense to appear on the coach's bench on the sidelines during the game.

The only thing that makes Caralga more painful is estimated to be the fine of £50,000. This Mexican coach, unlike the madman Lee, who has more than 100 million pounds, has almost caught up with his income for half a year!

As a victim, Maradona, the king of the game, was not punished by FIFA.

FIFA President Blatter even expressed his condolences to Marshal Ma through the camera when facing reporters, and expressed his sincere a sincere apology to Marshal Ma on behalf of the South Africa World Cup Organizing Committee for the brawl.

Of course, everyone understands that this is just an attitude based on a healthy image.

What's more, the reason why Marshal Ma was not included in the fight was not because the former 'Green's first old fool' reform, but because after Marshal Ma entered middle age, his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, and he didn't have time to react. He was sneaked by his opponent at the first time. Otherwise, the coach of the Mexican team Caralgado will not have the overall upper hand in the PK with the madman Li, and calmly beat the madman Li into a pig's head.

In addition to punishing the parties, the football associations of Mexico and Argentina have not been able to escape the punishment - both sides were fined 100,000 pounds, which was delivered within ten days.

In the judgment of this incident, FIFA has shown a rare new image of fairness, justice, timely and fast health. Whether it is the severity of the punishment or the degree of timeliness, it has won the praise of the media and fans.

And for such a sentence, whether it is the madman Li and Caralgado, or the two football associations of the two countries, there is no objection and obedience. This [coach court brawl], which caused a sensation all over the world, came and went quickly. In less than 24 hours, it hurriedly came to an end.

Of course, the next unsatisfied discussion between the media and fans is a later story.

............It seems that it has long been doomed that every game about the Argentine team will cause some vigorous things outside the football match, which makes many neutral fans enjoy watching it.

As of 12:00 noon on July 3, four seats have been born in the top eight of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, and the next four quarter-finals will be more cruel and fierce.

The smoke continues to permeate in South Africa.

At 14:00 p.m. local time on July 3, South Africa, at Durban Stadium, the fifth long game in the eighth final was held in the spotlight. The [Orange Legion] Netherlands team met the World Cup [Little Dark Horse] Slovakia team. The Dutch team won all three games in the group stage, showing an unparalleled competitive momentum and a very stable state. Therefore, before the game began, most of the media, fans and sports betting companies were more optimistic about Van Malvik's team!

The final result of the game also normally reflects the strength gap between the two teams - in the group stage, the Slovak team, which stepped on the body of the last World Cup champion Italy and entered the top 16, finally lost the game 1:2. They only scored a penalty by striker Vitke in the last 8 seconds of the game. .

Snead, the core of the midfield of [Orange Legion], passed and shot, while [Peter Pan] Robben made a long-range shot in the famous 'Rabben area' by relying on a skilled counterattack. These two superstars who almost sent Inter Milan and Bayern Munich to the finals of the European Champions League last season worked together to win a top 8 place for the Dutch team!

The fifth seat in the top 8 of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa was born - [Orange Legion] Netherlands team!!!!!

...Two hours later, at 16:00, at Ellis Park Stadium in Johannesburg, another eighth-final, two South American teams - [Five-Star Samba Legion] Brazil and Chile met on a narrow road and launched a fierce battle!

The strength gap between the two sides is obvious. Young coach Dunga did not give the Chileans a chance - in the 35th minute of the first half, the Brazilian team, which attacked with all its strength, has scored six corner kicks, and it was this sixth corner kick that helped the Brazilian team start the record - full-back Maikon made a corner kick on the right side, and central defender Juan Juan Dryland Jumping high, a Taishan hammer broke through the Chilean team's defense.

Only 3 minutes later, the Brazilian team made a comeback - the front-court trident Robinho, Kaka and Fabiano played a dreamy rhythm. Kaka, one of the [Four Heavenly Kings], pierced the Chilean defense, helped Sevilla striker Fabiano, shake the goalkeeper with a single knife, and rewrote the score to 2: 0.

In the 59th minute, the Brazilian team locked the victory, and the midfielder Ramirez, who replaced Melo, was in the midfield**. After several people in a row, he assisted Robinho to score the goal, and finally fixed the score of the whole game at 3:0.

The Brazilian team, which is aiming for the sixth Hercules Cup, showed a strong and unshakable dominance in every second of the game. They did not give the South American fellow Chile a chance and easily stepped into the top 8 of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Brazil won the quarter-finals for the sixth place in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa!

............that night.

HPC Sports Center.

All members of the Argentine team watched the two full games of the Netherlands and Brazil at the conference center. Since the opening of the World Cup in South Africa, Li Tongfan has asked every player to complete the homework - watching every game in progress.

After watching the game, the eyes of each hammer showed a questioning look and looked at the 'head' sitting in the front row until Li Tongfan stood up proudly, turned around and smiled, and said, "Disbanded". Only then did the hammers take a breath and stood up one by one, as if they had escaped. You pushed me to squeeze. , scrambled to squeeze out the conference center.

The coaches who watched this scene were very happy.

Watching the game is a task that every player must complete every day.

After watching the game, if Li Tongfan is not in a good mood, he will let the players stay and talk about their views and analysis of the game one by one, analyze why the winning team wins and why the losing team loses... If the players' analysis is well-founded, it's all.

If the result of the final analysis does not satisfy him, the consequences will be very serious - maybe Li Tongfan will sit on the rostrum to help you analyze it in person for four or five hours, spitting until late at night, making you completely collapse, or maybe Li Tongfan will accompany you to the training ground for physical training. Until you were tired and spit... Today, everyone thought that the leader who was punished by FIFA's ban and fines should be in a bad mood. Therefore, when the hammers watched the game just now, they thought a lot one by one and prepared a lot of analysis and wording to cope with the next analysis stage. ...Who knows, it turns out that Li Tongfan is in a good mood today. Analyzing Shenma, don't do it!

Soon, all the players fled, and the conference center was much more empty.

And the coaches stayed, and the smiles on everyone's faces turned into sadness.

In front of the players, as coaches, they try to maintain an optimistic mood to avoid hitting the confidence and morale of the players. However, when there are only members of the coaching staff left in the conference center, everyone can't help but think of a super big problem that the team must face - in the upcoming four points. In one of the finals, they will lose [God on the sidelines of the football field].

Losing the team's most powerful link all the time.

This sudden disaster is obviously an unbearable test for the newly reorganized [8-person coaching staff]. At present, in the Argentine coaching staff, except for the madman Li, the pillar, almost every one of the other seven people is not able to be like the World Cup. In the class competition, you can block one side of the material alone.

They looked at Li Tongfan.

Everyone hopes that this magical guy can come up with a perfect way to help the team solve this problem as he has done many times before... However, this time, Li Tongfan didn't seem to have any intention of taking this opportunity to talk about solving his absence. He smiled and looked at several colleagues. Then he turned around and walked out of the gate of the conference center step by step.

Look at the remaining 7 people. I'll look at you. I don't know what Li Tongfan means.

"Li, hey~~ This... What do you think?"

Kempes stood up and originally wanted to stop Li Tongfan. Who knew that the guy left in a hurry, as if he was in a hurry. He turned around and disappeared without a trace. Kempes had to turn around and ask several other colleagues.

"Well, I think Li's meaning is very clear. This matter depends on us to solve it ourselves."

Li Bing is very good at scheming people's thoughts. He basically expressed Li Tongfan's ideas.

That's right.

Lao Li hopes that the coaching staff will rely on their own strength to negotiate a solution to the problem as soon as possible. From now on, they will gradually adapt to the working state without their own existence. Moreover, if the [King of the Ball] Maradona wants to win the command of the next game, he must persuade other companions to accept himself. For this matter, Lao Li does not want to complete it by order.

"In that case... Well, maybe we should really think about how we should deal with the possible difficulties when Li is away. You can't put all the pressure on Li's shoulders alone. Kempes sat down, looked at Li Bing and said, "Li, you are the assistant coach of the team. In your opinion, how should we solve the current problem?"

Li Bing lowered his head and thought, and his fingers gently stroked the smooth table.

After a long time, he looked up and said slowly, "Okay, let me talk about my opinion... I think the most important thing now is to establish a person who can exercise the power of the head coach on behalf of Li when he is not on the sidelines. Only in this way can the coaching staff make a unified voice in the game. Avoid the chaotic situation when you encounter difficulties.

This sentence came out, and the other people's eyes suddenly focused on Li Bing's face.

According to the long-standing default 'unspoken rules' in international football, when the head coach is unable to direct the game, the assistant coach should exercise the rights of the head coach. Therefore, at this time, in principle, Li Bing is definitely the first choice to become the acting head coach.

Does Li Bing mean that he should be the right to drive the head coach?

Is this a struggle for power and profit?

In order to maintain his image and avoid exposure of yin and yang, Maradona's eyebrows, who was still wearing a training hat, jumped gently. He was about to speak, but he heard Li Bing continue to say, "In my opinion, among the seven of us, Diego is the most suitable candidate to be the acting head coach."

As soon as he said this, Marshal Ma was a little stunned.

He didn't expect Li Bing to say that.

He originally wanted to stand up and take the initiative to seize the power. You know, modest concessions are not his style of Marshal Ma. As long as he wants what he wants, Maradona will never give it to others... He just didn't expect that Li Bing, as an assistant coach, would take the initiative to recommend himself.

"Has this Chinese seen through the fact that I have the super potential to become the second madman Li? What a horrible look at people's eyes!"

Marshal Ma is very happy.

While Maradona was still immersed in the depth of self, Redonto smiled and nodded: "I agree." [ Prince] Lei Dongduo will always be like this. His elegance makes him only say his own opinions and never explain too much. He looks a little indisputable lightness, and a little proud to be out of the matter.

[The Witcher] Beron, who was sitting next to Redondo, spread out his hands and shrugged his shoulders: "Good idea!"

Kanigia, the [Son of the Wind], who was called "Maradona a close comrade-in-arms" by the media, naturally would not have any opinions on such a proposal. He looked as serious as ever and nodded to express his views.

[God of War] Batistuta looked at Maradona and Kempes, and finally said with a smile, "Well, among the seven of us, only Diego and Li are similar, because they are the same kind of people. In the previous period, Li has given the Argentine team a unique surname, so, If you want the team to keep this surname, Diego is the most suitable person.

"Hey, we all thought of this..." Hearing Bartie's words, Kempes laughed, and the modest gentleman's face was not lost at all: "Gabriel, I know that the reason why you said this is to explain to me the reason why you chose Diego. In fact, there is no need at all. Because the person in my mind is also him.

At this point, Kempes's expression suddenly became serious, and his tone was full of emotion: "To be honest, I never thought that this World Cup trip would make me say that I lived so much... It was Li who made me figure out a lot of problems that had been bothering me before in a short time... Rich Detailed tactical knowledge, confidence beyond everyone, carefulness and diligence, and thinking that can't stop all the time... What is the cornerstone of becoming a good coach? And it was also in yesterday's game that I suddenly found out what I had been lacking in my body and what it was, which made me a head coach who had failed to the extreme in the past seven or eight years. Fate never favors anyone. What we need to do is very simple - stop complaining.

Kempes was a little excited. He stood up and patted the table fiercely. He quickly walked to Li Bing and said sincerely, "Li, I think, I finally know why Li Ken chose you as an assistant coach. You have the insight that we don't have, and of course, the unique demeanor of Chinese people... With that, he turned his head and made a funny smile to Maradona: "Hey, Diego, you won this time, but next time, I won't let everyone vote for you so easily."

Maradona laughed. He leaned against the back of the chair, put his feet on his face, and said proudly, "Haha, Mario, if you can be more adventurous in the game like Li, I don't think you have to wait until next time."

Kempes wipes his sweat.

Seven people reached an agreement in a very harmonious atmosphere.

Li Bing feels relaxed in such a working environment. This love for football and everyone's strictly forbidden humorous self-analysis are absolutely extinct in domestic clubs. He felt that he was slowly integrating into this super-name coaching team through his own efforts.

After getting excited, Li Bing, who had been laughing, rarely made a small joke: "Hey, hey hey, guys, I thought someone would elect me. I didn't expect that I would really pass Diego so soon. At least I'm also an assistant coach, wow, I'm so disappointed..."

A burst of laughter broke out in the conference center.

The invisible tension that originally permeated between the coaching staff disappeared at this moment. The impact of Li Tongfan's absence on the atmosphere of the whole coaching team has also been unconsciously minimized.

...outside the conference center.

Li Tongfan is secretly eavesdropping.

10 minutes ago, Lao Li did quickly disappear into the conference center. However, he didn't go too far. After avoiding everyone's sight, he quickly turned back quietly and came to the door to eavesdrop.

Lao Li wants to know whether these guys can solve the problem.

And when the laughter finally came out, Lao Li nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that the matter had almost been resolved, and he didn't have to worry about it anymore.

Lao Li smiled proudly and was about to disappear before Kempes didn't find it. Who knew that as soon as he turned around, he suddenly met someone behind him. The defenseless Lao Li's eyes were hit with stars, and he fell back with a miserable buttocks. He knocked on the door of the conference center behind his buttocks and fell down. On the ground... and then - "Oh, ouch, ah, ah, ah..."

"Be careful, don't squeeze me..."

"Wow, damn it!!"

A scream came. Before Li Tongfan could get up, a group of people rushed in from the door like pushing down dominoes, clattering towards him and burying him in the 'meat mountain' in an instant... In the conference center, Kempes and others were stunned.

Which one is this play?

"Uh, what's going on? Oh, oh, I'm going the wrong way, I'm going the wrong way..."

Romello, the goalkeeper lying on the top of the crowd, was the first to react. The big man, who was more than 1.9 meters tall, got up with a smile, said hello, patted his buttocks, and disappeared at the door.

"Yes, yes, yes, I'm going the wrong way, hey hey..."

"I was pushed by someone!"

"You continue, hey hey, continue..."

The other hammers did not perform much better than Romero. They figured out the situation in front of them one by one, got up in a panic, and disappeared automatically.

In the end, only Li Tongfan was left lying on the carpet in a 'big' shape, with his legs and feet pulled out and foaming at the mouth.

Maradona came over, squatted down, bowed his head, and looked at Lao Li with a smile: "Hey, Li, why did you suddenly bump into him? Is it...you have been eavesdropping outside?

"Eveling? Oh, woops, how is that possible? Hey, Diego, you're familiar with it, but if you say so, I'll also sue you for slander!"

Li Tongfan solemnly denied it.

He got up from the carpet with three hands and two feet, bounced the dust on his body, looked at the seven partners, and explained seriously: "Actually... er, that, the reason is very simple. I'm also going the wrong way!"

Li Tongfan said, turning around quickly and chasing him out.

Soon, an angry roar came from the distance: "You damn bastards, why don't you stop me... and run? Say, why do you come to eavesdrop? It's very immoral. Don't you feel ashamed?

"Head, did you eavesdrop first, okay? We're just curious, who made you lie on the door so obscene! I thought there was a wonderful story in it..."

This is the voice of goalkeeper Romero.

"Yes, yes, we are also concerned about the situation of the team and want to come to comfort you who have been banned. Who knows that as soon as you come back, you will see you lying at the door like a thief... Seriously, boss, Gonzalo thought there was a thief at first, and suggested that we sneak up on you with a wooden stick behind your back!"

This is Messi's voice.

"What, who said I was eavesdropping? I'm just cleaning the glass. Yes, I'm cleaning the glass!! Romero, you hateful guy, how dare you say that I'm obscene? Are you going to stun me? NND, don't run, stop for me... Ouch, I'm a bitch, who's so fucking virtuous? I threw a stick here, ouch..."

The roar rose again, and a stuffy man seemed to have tripped over something and screamed repeatedly.

A group of people fought like this, and finally disappeared into the distant night like a ghost crying and a wolf howling.

In the conference center.

Kempes and several people looked at each other in front of each other.

In the end, everyone couldn't help laughing. From the scene just now, the big-name coaches felt the strong concern of the players and Li Tongfan for the team's state. In such a difficult situation, as long as the Argentine team can maintain such a united atmosphere, what else can prevent them from moving towards strength? What about the footsteps of the God Cup?

Laughter permeates the HPC sports center this night.

............"We support the crazy Li!!"

"Long live the Argentine team!! Li is our hero!!"

"The Hercules Cup belongs to Argentina, Germans, get out of here..."

"Blatter, go to hell!"

"Madman Li can lead the team to victory even if he sits in the stands!!!"

At the gate of the HPC Sports Center of the University of Pretoria, thousands of crazy Argentine fans gathered here early the next morning. They held the head of Li Tongfan, the Argentine flag and the large portraits of the big brands in the team, shouting exciting slogans and expressing their madness to the head coach. Li and the team's support!

The Argentine team is training at the ABSATuksStadium training ground.

Seeing such a scene, Li Tongfan simply opened the HPC Sports Center to the fans again, allowing these crazy fans to sit in the stone stand and cheer for the players at close range.

Looking at the blue and white waves rolling on the stands of the training ground, everyone in the team felt a great confidence. The impact of the 'head' ban on the game. The outside world looked down on the Argentine team without madman Li, which made everyone's heart gas and couldn't wait to prove it to the world. Even if you let that person have to sit in the stands and watch the game as a spectator, you can't take away our victory!

Germans, let it go!

............Time goes by.

The smoke of the world in South Africa is getting stronger and stronger.

On July 4th, the last two fights of the eighth finals were staged as scheduled.

At 16:00 p.m. local time in South Africa, the Asian team played against the South American team Paraguay. The two sides scored a 0-0 draw in 90 minutes.
