Chapter 1988 ready to go

After Celius Caesar received the ball in the frontcourt, he passed the football sideways to Marco Rossini next to him.

Then he turned himself around and pulled sideways.

After Rossini pulled away, he passed the football to him.

Facing the rolling football, Caesar did not stop the ball. He swung his right leg and shot directly outside the penalty area!

The flying height of the football is not high, and it is below the knees of the whole process.

It is not easy to pounce on such a high ball!

Rino Marinelli, the Argentine goalkeeper, swoops and misses the ball!

The football finally brushed the goal post and flew out of the bottom line!

"Oh! What a risk! Just a little bit! Caesar almost opened the scoring for Italy in the first ten minutes of the game and took the lead! It seems that Caesar is in good form for this game, maybe he really recovered from his knee injury Come here! Such a shot requires a lot of strength and stability of the knee..."

In front of the TV, the Chinese players who were watching the game said with emotion:

"Who would have thought that this is the performance a 38-year-old player should have?"

"And the knee hurts..."

"Caesar's performance in the club and the national team really makes me wonder..."

"Hey, there's nothing I don't want to understand. Keep your strength for the World Cup. Although he didn't say when he will retire, I feel that he should retire after playing this World Cup. As the last major competition of his career, Of course he’s going to do his best.”

"Will this be unfair to the Turin Bulls..."

"Otherwise, do you think why Caesar has been scolded so fiercely this season, and the Turin Bulls rarely come out to support Caesar with great fanfare?"

"Argentina didn't expect Caesar to start... Their response in the game seemed very hasty. Just now when Caesar opened the shot, no one posted it immediately, so Caesar took it easy..."

"From this point of view, Argentina will not be eliminated, right?"

"That's not the case. Generally speaking, Argentina is still stronger than Italy, and Italy is just better at defending. But passively defending blindly is still too dangerous... No one can guarantee that they will not make mistakes at all..."

"Albertazzi!"

On the TV, the commentator exclaimed.

Outside the TV, the Chinese players onlookers also exclaimed:

"Fuck!"

"This save!"

"It's awesome!"

They had just seen Mauro Albertazzi go down and block Meli's close shot with his foot!

Meli, who failed to break through Albertazi's goal, saw the opponent's save, and knelt on the ground with his knees softened, holding his head in his hands, and looked at Albertazi dumbfounded.

He couldn't believe that his shot was thrown away...

When he shot, he was probably only one meter away from Albertazzi!

At such a distance, Albertazzi was able to block the football with his feet... "This is impossible!" was written all over Meli's face

And you must know that this is his second consecutive save when Albertazzi has already made a save.

Before he saved Pablo Becker's long shot, it was already a very extreme save.

The football thrown by him hit the goalpost and bounced back into the penalty area, just in front of Meli.

After landing, Albertazzi quickly got up, spread his legs and opened his arms, and threw himself at Meli.

Meli chose the least forward swing and the fastest poke shot, but the football was blocked by the inside of Albertazzi's right foot that was dragged on the ground, and it missed the baseline.

Alberta, who made such a perfect save, stood up and celebrated with a punch on the spot.

It looked like he was about to punch Merry...

Merry himself probably thought so, so he shrank his neck reflexively.

Seeing this scene, Hu Lai said with experience: "Yes, no matter whether you win or lose after the game, Melly's move will definitely make him one more hot search."

The game has entered the second half, and the score is still 0:0.

Argentina's offensive in this game was not as fierce as everyone thought.

This may have something to do with Caesar's playing.

Caesar acts as a column center, who can grab points in front of the goal by himself or play the ball for his teammates.

Let Argentina dare not devote all its energy to offense.

This is the aura of the veteran heavenly king. Even if you know that he can't run most of the time, you just dare not let your guard down completely.

In Italian football style, they only need to take one bite, not much, just one bite, it may be fatal.

Wang Guangwei glanced down at the time on his watch, then got up suddenly and walked out.

Hu Lai, who was in the same room, asked, "Why are you going?"

"Go and inform everyone that it's time to go." Wang Guangwei said and walked out of the room door.

"I'm going? I'm leaving?" Several other people who were also watching the game in the room came to their senses and checked the time one after another.

It was really only about ten minutes before they set off for the stadium.

At this time, you should really prepare, pack up your things, and go downstairs to gather in advance.

It's impossible to really go downstairs in time, right?

On-site media, fans, hotel security, police cars clearing the way... Everyone is ready, just waiting for you to watch the game for a few more minutes?

Seeing that the time is running out, everyone can only choose to leave even though the game is still going on.

In the corridor, the sound of Wang Guangwei knocking on the door was heard one after another.

Everyone in the room got up one after another, ready to turn off the TV.

But at this moment, the noise of the fans on the TV suddenly increased, which made Hu Lai, who had already put his finger on the off button of the remote control, stop.

I saw an attack from the Italian side, and Di Kunzo made a pass.

The ball was headed off by Argentine centre-back Sergi Peralta.

It was then stopped by Italian midfielder Marco Rossini just outside the box.

After Rossini stopped the ball, facing the uphill Argentine player, he immediately passed the football to Caesar next to him, and he himself inserted into the Argentine penalty area.

Everyone thought they were going to fight two against one.

So the Argentine players who originally wanted to go up to block Caesar hesitated for a while on whether to continue to go up or retreat.

It was this hesitation that made Caesar seize the opportunity!

In order to capture this fleeting opportunity, he didn't even run up, but directly exerted force on the spot, swung his right foot and shot!

Everyone was unprepared for Caesar's kick!

In a hurry, Argentina's goalkeeper Rino Marinelli leaned forward and made a preparatory move for a save.

In fact, his position is very good, because Caesar's shot is very direct, and he doesn't need to throw it sideways.

But Caesar kicked too suddenly and with too much force.

When the football hit Marinelli's chest, before his hands could be retracted, the football bounced out again!

Marinelli, who was lying on the ground, was frightened into a cold sweat!

He's out!

He quickly struggled with his hands and feet and threw himself at the football.

But before he pounced, a foot wearing a sea blue sock suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and then stabbed away the football that was close at hand!

"Rossini!"

The narrator roared loudly.

There were also deafening cheers from the stadium stands.

And these cheers all come from the Italian fans!

When Marinelli dropped the ball, Marco Rossini, who had just passed the football to Caesar and inserted it directly into the penalty area, slapped the horse and made up the football that flew out of his hand into the goal!

A situation that no one expected appeared!

Italy is ahead!

The players of the Chinese team, who were about to turn around and leave in front of the TV, were all dumbfounded looking at the TV screen.

Then there were exclamations one after another from the opened doors:

"Fuck me?!"

"What the hell!"

"what's the situation?!"

"Fuck **** fuck fuck!"

"Italy ahead?!"

"Italy is ahead of Argentina?!"

Wang Guangwei had just knocked on the door of a room when he heard exclamations coming from the room.

So he also went in and took a look, and saw Marco Rossini and Caesar celebrating, as well as other Italian players.

"Hey, not bad." He boasted with a smile.

As a player playing in Serie A, of course he supported the Italian team in this game.

After praising Italy's performance, he said to his teammates: "Turn off the TV, pack up your things, and prepare to set off!"

"Okay, Team Wang!" The players of the Chinese team who were still excited about Italy's goal just now turned off the TV obediently.

Wang Guangwei turned and went out, and walked to another room.

Thanks to Italy's goal at this time, he didn't have to knock on the door one by one, because some teammates opened the door and ran out of the house.

He simply stood in the corridor and shouted:

"Assemble! Assemble! Let's go!"

※※※

"My God, is Argentina going to lose?!"

Danny Drew looked at the Italian players celebrating carnivally and the dejected Argentine players on the TV screen, and expressed such admiration and emotion.

Beside him, Maxi Carey checked the contents of his backpack one last time, zipped it up, and slung it over his back, one shoulder.

"Nothing to see, Danny. It doesn't matter who wins or loses."

Carey said.

"Anyway, we win in the end."

※※※

The staff in the hotel lobby, the media reporters outside and the fans were all talking about Italy's lead just now.

In the fifty-third minute of the game, Italy took the lead.

For Italy, which is good at defense ~lightnovelpub.net~ Leading is simply a big killer!

So as the Chinese players stepped out of the elevator, speculation about the Italy-Argentina game, and pessimism about Argentina, was spreading inside and outside the hotel.

However, this emotion was swept away after seeing the Chinese players.

Italy and Argentina were quickly forgotten before the first cheers and screams: "Here they come! Here they come!"

Reminder to everyone present - the real protagonists are here!

The line of sight and the camera were aimed at the players of the Chinese team who came out very uniformly.

Cheers resounded throughout the audience:

"Ahhh! Chinese team, come on!"

At the same time, the same scene is happening outside the hotel where the Dutch team is staying.

The Dutch fans sent blessings and cheers to the Dutch players who boarded the car.

It's like sending a hero onto the battlefield.

The heroes of the two countries set off.
