404. Civil War in East Asia
August 4th.
"Drip, drip, drip!"
The referee from the United States, Geiger, blew the whistle to the end of the game.
Japanese player Mikishi Usa breathed up and half-length of hair was covered in his eyes.
He and his team finally failed to go further in the Olympics, and the quarterfinals were their limit.
"It's a pity, Usa Mikun."
He felt a warm and powerful hand pat his shoulder, and then a familiar German voice came into his ears.
That was his teammate who was once in Bayern Munich.
When they were teammates, this teammate was so powerful that he made Usa Mikishi on the bench feel extremely at ease.
But when he became Usa Mikishi's opponent, the Japanese young man felt more deeply that this strength was enough to make all opponents despair!
Now he is desperate, all his Japanese teammates are desperate!
-
"The game is over! The Japanese team's crazy attack at the last moment not only did not bring them a goal, but instead allowed the Chinese team to seize the opportunity to launch a counterattack again!"
Liu Jianhong had already pulled off the tie and buttons of his shirt, and his chest was blown red in the midday wind in London.
Nangong Lei, the guest who was a commentator with him, was also very excited:
"The 4-1 score allowed the Chinese team to enter the semi-finals with their heads held high. The Chinese Olympic team now has the opportunity to compete for a medal. If it comes true, the Chinese delegation will make a historic breakthrough in the Olympic football event!"
-
Long Shute breathed a little relieved.
This Japanese Olympic team does not have the strongest lineup, and players of the age of Shinji Kagawa did not participate, and the only players who can name him are Maya Yoshida and Mikishi Usa - the latter is because they have been teammates for a season.
As for other players, they all play in the J League. In terms of personal abilities, they may not be more than Zhang Linpeng and Wang Dalei, at most they are at a level of half a dozen. It is no exaggeration to say that most of the people here do not even have the qualifications to join the Japanese adult team after they grow up.
In this case, it doesn't seem strange that Long Shute completed the hat trick at all. After all... the gap between him and the opponent's defender reached at least 30 points...
This is the real bullying of elementary school students!
-
Entering the semi-finals allowed him to fulfill his commitment to the leaders of the General Administration. As for whether he can enter the finals, even Director Liu is afraid that he cannot be forced to do so even if Director Liu comes in person.
After all, they were unable to "help" the National Olympic Team to achieve even a victory in 2008, and now in the capital of the British Empire, they can only give their best.
What's more... according to the rules of the match, their opponent may also be the host. How can the Chinese team, a country of etiquette, compete with the host for a long and short period?
But before he could finish his breath, the results of the other games came over.
Brazil defeated Honduras 3-2.
Mexico swept Egypt 5-0.
As for the host, the British Empire, the birthplace of modern football, it was tied with the Great Cold Kingdom, the birthplace of the universe in 90 minutes of regular time and 30 minutes of overtime... and was eliminated by the latter in the next penalty shootout...
The British team's defeat was undoubtedly more unpopular than the Spanish group's elimination. Hundreds of thousands of local British spectators were not only extremely disappointed, but also once blew up the complaint call from the Olympic Committee's ticketing center!
Because at least more than 50,000 fans have booked the final ticket a month in advance - they all think that their team will definitely enter the final with the right time, place, and people...
But they miscalculated. Although the Three Lions avoided the danger of being eliminated by the Chinese team in the group stage with tacit understanding, they encountered Tai Chi Tigers. The Three Lions still failed to defeat the eleven tigers.
Therefore, the Chinese team's semi-final opponent is not the British team, but the Korean team.
The Chinese team doesn’t have to consider giving face to the host!
-
Compared with the Japanese team, the Korean team obviously attaches great importance to the Olympics, and the teams they send can represent the strongest level in the country.
Ji Chengyong, Kim Young-kwon, Ju Zizhe and Chi Dong-won constitute the main framework of this team, and their overall abilities are one level stronger than Japan.
In addition, South Korean law stipulates that as long as you win the Olympic medal (top three), you can be exempted from your obligation to serve two years. This regulation is simply the most powerful dose of stimulant for them!
Two years of military service may not seem long, but for a professional player, leaving the arena at their most golden age is simply a life-threatening death!
This not only means that there is almost no economic income in two years, but it will also have an immeasurable impact on their competitive state. If they can get a waiver, even if they are allowed to play with the main team of the world champion Spain, they will definitely give the Bullfighters a headache!
Ah, I'm sorry, Spain, who played half of the main players, was kicked out in the group stage...
In the whole world football world, the discipline and fighting spirit of the South Korean team are extremely admirable. Even though they have had the 2002 World Cup scandal, it is undeniable that the willpower and fighting spirit of these players are things that most players lack - especially for the Chinese team, who shouted slogans before the game, but became impatient and had weak legs when they arrived on the court.
Fortunately, Long Shute has helped the Chinese team take off his hat of "Korean fear". Although his teammates are still nervous, at least they will not collapse.
And his mission... is to resolve the battle before his teammates' psychological collapse!
One minute after the game started, Long Shute completed this task. His powerful shot at the front of the penalty area was blocked by the opponent's defender with his hands and left the baseline. The referee from the UK, Clattenberg, did not blink for a moment, directly sent off the defender's red card!
The commentator of the Korean TV station frantically criticized Kratenberg for being "blind" and "this was eliminated by the British team three days before revenge on the Korean Empire."
However, Chinese commentator Duan Yixuan couldn't help but let out his most iconic laughter:
"Haha... Haha... The Korean team was in big trouble. They were facing the dilemma of fighting one less person from the beginning, and the Chinese team also won a penalty!"
Guest Xu Yang couldn't help laughing:
"Yes, we have achieved great benefits. According to the Chinese team's tactics of this Olympic Games, as long as we lead with one goal, we can play defense more easily. By that time, the Chinese team with unique dragons will almost be invincible!"
Before he could finish his wonderful analysis, Duan Yixuan's laughter stopped:
"Hey? Long Shute didn't take the penalty kick himself? Faced with such a good opportunity... he actually gave it to... goalkeeper Wang Dalei?!"
The two commentators' minds stopped turning at the same time at this moment. Not only them, but the Korean team was even more stunned.
South Korean goalkeeper Zheng Chenglong has studied the shooting habits of almost all Chinese players, but has not considered the two goalkeepers. Now his mind is completely blank.
Like the audience, he watched Wang Dalei trot all the way to the front of the penalty area.
"Captain, are you calling me?"
Wang Dalei calmed down a little, and then looked innocent.
He had long heard that this team boss was very generous in the club. He never played the penalty kick he created, but was given to the defender and goalkeeper to swipe the data. Unexpectedly, it was his turn now...
"You try to install it for me..."
Long Shute raised his foot and kicked him in the butt:
"Do you dare to punish this ball? If you don't dare, I will give it to Zhang Linpeng."
"Dare you!"
Wang Dalei hurriedly hugged his arm, his face full of flattering smile:
"I, Dalei, don't know how to write the word "Scared". I'll leave this ball to me, captain, don't worry!"
Long Shu nodded and gave another instructor:
"Don't worry about returning to defense, just play well."
Wang Dalei was immediately calmed down.
Don't worry about returning to defense?
This means...of course, does Captain Long wipe his butt personally?
How touching!
-
"Bang!"
Wang Dalei didn't even have any run-ups. He swung his right leg and thrust heavily on the football.
Compared to shooting in sports games, penalty kicks do not have that high requirements for shooting ability, but instead require a calm mind and a little luck.
His shot did not pursue any absolute blind spots or weird arcs, he just exerted his strength to the extreme!
Zheng Chenglong was originally a goalkeeper with great luck. He once scored a goal with a 70-meter pass in a warm-up match, but today, his luck is useless.
He could only watch a black and white shadow rubbing his right hand that he had tried his best to open, and rushed into the door behind him!
1-0!
Chapter completed!
