Grassroots Glory
v6 Chapter 8: The siege started
The national anthem sounded at the Pernambuco Stadium.
Eleven Chinese players stood in a row with one hand on their left chest. As the national anthem sounded, the camera swept across each of their faces. Everyone was extremely focused, even if it was Jiang Hao, his favorite favorite on weekdays, At this time, with eyes closed, feel the deafening and powerful singing of Chinese fans.
CCTV's broadcast footage was swept over everyone's face, but even Zhou Tiancheng didn't stay there, but instead at Wu Sanshi, the CCTV broadcast team stayed deliberately for three seconds, he focused with a slight smile The expression fell into the eyes of every fan, don't have a deep meaning.
Wu Sanshi, who stood in the center of the stadium, thought of eight years ago, at the 2006 World Cup in Germany, he took the hand of Fernando Torres and first learned about the World Cup as a caddie. At that time, it was already hailed by some media as the future star. Wu Sanshi once presented three dreams about the future to the camera.
One, in the future, his worth can reach 70 million US dollars.
Second, play on behalf of the national team and win glory for the country.
Three, want to play in the World Cup
At that time, the vast majority of people were only kidding children, but today, he achieved a goal that seemed the most difficult to achieve.
This short twenty-second time period, even all the media reporters sing the national anthem intently. For young reporters, this is the first experience that has been encountered for many years, and some old reporters have the memories in their hearts.
I hope this time will have a good result...
After the national anthem was played, He Wei's confident voice came again: "For everyone, whether we are the onlookers who are looking forward to the Chinese team, or every player, the next 90 minutes are a memorable experience. Zhou Tiancheng has created a legendary height on the club’s stage. With such a World Cup experience, he is only 25 years old and can have a perfect career that most professional players can’t match. It must also be mentioned It is Wu Sanshi, who is younger than Zhou Tiancheng. The achievements of young people with dreams will never be overestimated. He once again stood in the World Cup-as a player. At this moment, more than ten years ago, the Chinese team boarded The World Cup on the Korea-Japan World Cup is just as exciting, and I am proud to participate in it as a personal experience. Of course, I hope that after this time, this unique World Cup memory will be infinitely wonderful and sweet."
According to the expectations of the Chinese media before the game, Côte d'Ivoire is at least an opponent who cannot lose, and a score is the bottom line. But this does not seem very easy.
Côte d'Ivoire coach Sabri Ramouchi's starting lineup is not weak at all.
The Toure brothers are the core of the midfield and backcourt, Kolo Toure leads the back line, and Yaya Toure is the iron gate of the midfield. Of course, as an African team, Côte d’Ivoire’s truly luxurious is the striker, Drogba sits on the bench, but Côte d’Ivoire also has Roman striker Gervinho, Manchester City striker Boni, Chelsea striker Kalu.
African teams rely on talent flow. Even in the face of world-class strong teams, they dare to play against each other, so in addition to several CCTV commentaries looking forward to the Chinese team fighting against their opponents, the German commentary Marcel Leif and the sky Sports Bob Clem believes that the Chinese team's strategy should be a defensive counterattack.
Lippi was already very good at anti-counter-attack tactics. It is his long-standing philosophy to stand on defense in the competition, and Zhou Tiancheng in the midfield is like a core brain that opened the eyes of the sky.
……
Ten seconds before the start of the game, the audience began to count down.
"Ten!"
"Nine!"
"Eight!"
"Seven!"
"Six!"
"Fives!"
"Four!"
"three!!"
"Two!!!"
"One!!!!"
The voice of Chinese fans almost lifted the ceiling of the stadium.
The referee made a long whistle. After Ivory Coast took the lead to kick off, the two famous European commentators had not finished the opening remarks. They found that the performance of the Chinese team seemed to be different from what they expected.
Hannover midfielder Yakonan just passed the ball to Yaya Toure next to him to advance the first wave of attack. At this moment, Zhou Tiancheng stepped forward and broke the ball from Yaya Toure.
After this, they found that as many as seven players of the Chinese team directly went to the Ivorian half. The defender line, Zheng Zhi and Feng Xiaoting, two starting central defenders, also pushed up.
"Okay, okay! Counterattack! The momentum of the Chinese team's opening is very good, entering the game very quickly, the opponent has obviously not responded yet! Seize the opportunity! Seize the opportunity!"
Yaya Touré was chasing and pulling in the back. Chilean referee Osses saw Zhou Tiancheng forced to run under the pressure. The whistle remained in his mouth without blowing.
Yaya Toure was chasing after and dealt with Zhou Tian, it became clearer his ability in this situation. Although it did not effectively prevent the advancement of the Chinese team's counterattack, it inevitably slowed down the speed. Zhou Tiancheng could only choose to plug the striker forward.
Fu Sanshi's follow-up shot was blocked by the opponent's central defender Kolo Touré and rolled out of the bottom line.
missed an opportunity at the opening, but the Chinese team then used the corner kick to continuously attack, which forced Côte d’Ivoire to recover quickly, and the formation was flattened. Hao Junmin kicked a shot at the top of the penalty area and missed the goal post slightly. It was only less than three centimeters away to break goalkeeper Mander's ten fingers.
"Oops!" The three commentators have left their seats, and seeing the ball rolled out of the bottom line, they can only shake their heads: "Almost ~lightnovelpub.net~ Almost."
"Too perfect for perfection, don't need to be so tricky, as long as you hit the goal range, there will be threats." Hao Haidong commented regretfully.
These waves of continuous offensive started the momentum for the Chinese team, but also conveyed an attitude to all the fans and commentary.
Chinese fans naturally cheered constantly, and Bob Clem was surprised: "Are there any mistakes? Will the Chinese team choose to dominate the game today? Lippi has never been such a radical coach, I think he just wants to be fast Grab a start, um, yes, it should be like this."
As a famous celebrity in England, he did not allow such a big deviation in his judgment, which would make his professional ability questioned, so he found a reason.
'S commentary guest Carragher did not answer, but said with a smile: "It seems that the Chinese team is not nervous at all, they are full of eagerness for the stage of the World Cup."
And Marcel Leif has a playful tone, with some expectations, because of Zhou Tiancheng, he set the Chinese team as his second home team in his heart.
"Rippie is still the same as before, but today he seems to have more confidence, which is not surprising. With Zhou sitting in the midfield, any coach will get a source of confidence. If you don't say it before, you can see that Zhou played for this moment. , Gave up the left shoulder that should be operated, and insist on the injury? The Chinese team is indeed not a regular visitor of the World Cup, but if this team is regarded as a bully, I fear that Ivory Coast will pay the first one."
Ps: Update as usual today, and the explosion will start tomorrow on the 7th.
