Chapter 138 Go Fight, Sao Nian
On July 2, 2006, Gelsenkirchen, Germany, was sunny.
The game hadn't started yet, and the stadium was already full of people's voices. Looking around, it was all yellow and bright, as if countless mangoes were stacked on the stands. Compared with the red, it looked a lot shabby.
Perhaps the Belgian fans didn't expect their national team to get to where it is today, so not many people bought tickets before. The stadium that can accommodate 60,000 people only poured in less than 20,000 Belgian fans.
Before the start of the game, there was an episode in the stands. A Brazilian fan broke through layers of security checks and brought a huge canvas to the stands. When he opened it up, it turned out to be a cartoon image of Digan wearing a Belgian No. 9 jersey. But looking at the mustache, you can know that the role played by Degan in the painting is Judas who betrayed Jesus. In the painting, Degan was hung on a tree, and there was written in Portuguese next to it: Traitors must die, Digan. Gan is equal to Judas!
Of course, the fan had just shown his work, and was immediately discovered by the security guards in the stadium, and then he was invited out, and what awaited him might not be a severe punishment.
Degan didn't know anything about what happened outside. At this moment, he was mobilizing his teammates for the final battle in the locker room: "Guys! I want to say that we can hold our heads high if we can get to this point today. The chest is back to Brussels, the top eight of the World Cup. This is a good result. Even if we return to China today, we will not be criticized. But, what I want to say is, since we have already reached the top eight, why can't we go further? , I know who our opponent is. Five-star Brazil is the absolute king in the football world. They are the defending champions. They have countless stars. I think it is a matter of course for them to advance to the semi-finals, but I want to ask, why? Can they book victory just because Pele, Zico, Romario, Ronaldo were born on their land? Damn! People who say these words are simply stupid. The Brazilians want to defend the World Cup champion. Give credit to Belgian football, it's here to be the fucking world champions, what about the defending champions? Fuck the defending champions, they only deserve us real men, real fighters licking toes, guys! Fight now It's about to start, and now there are a group of clowns in yellow skins outside, who have already pouted their buttocks, waiting for us to kick them hard, any timidity will bind our hands and feet, we have no other We can only choose to fight, defeat the enemy, and let them know that the European red devil who once made the whole world tremble is back, we will step on the enemy's corpse, get our honor, kill Brazil, kill all opponents, let us Go kiss the Hercules Cup!"
After saying the last word, Digan rushed directly to the door, kicked open the door of the locker room, pointed to the outside, and roared loudly: "Take out our courage, use our feet to conquer the world , let's go! Guys! Let's fight!"
The red-eyed Belgian players who were stimulated by Degan's impassioned and impassioned speech rushed out of the locker room one by one. If they were still afraid of the strong strength of the Brazilian team before the game, then Now, no opponent can be placed in their eyes, as Digan said, they can conquer the world.
After all the players had gone out, Antiiennis walked up to Degan and said with a smile, "It was a wonderful speech, Rhodes! I found it was a wise decision to hand over the captain's armband to you!"
Digan let out a sigh of relief pretending to be relaxed: "Okay! Then you can justifiably be lazy! Mr. Master of Psychology!"
Antiiennis patted Degan's shoulder with a smile, and his eyes fell on Degan's left leg: "How do you feel now, Rhodes! Although I want this victory, I don't want your health to suffer. Problem, you are still young, you still have a chance to participate in more World Cups! I~~~~~~~"
Degan waved his hand and stopped Antiiennis from saying: "I know what I'm doing, coach! I can't pin my hopes on the future."
Antiiennis knew that he had no way to change Digan's decision, so he could only persuade him: "I can promise you, Rhodes! But you have to promise me one thing, if you find that you can't stick to it, you must not force it Own!"
Digan was taken aback for a moment, but still nodded.
Antiiennis smiled wryly, and hugged Degan's shoulders: "Rod! I'm not a qualified coach, but you are the best player, go and pursue your honor! Lead us to move on!"
Inside the player tunnel.
Players from the two teams lined up in two rows, waiting to play. Degan stood at the front of the Belgian team. He could feel the resentful eyes of the Brazilian players beside him. Degan laughed it off.
In this Brazilian team, Degan has many acquaintances. Of course, Adriano needless to say, the old enemy is the enemy.
Kaka is his older brother. The topic of the two of them has been hyped up before the game, so it's meaningless to bring it up at this time.
Dida and Cafu are also his teammates in AC Milan, but the relationship with these two people is not very good, especially Dida, who hates Degan.
This season, Degan has criticized his state several times. In today's game, he came with a clean sheet.
"Boy! You shouldn't have said those words!"
Digan frowned, and glanced at Cafu beside him. Although the two were teammates in the club, they rarely communicated. They played together in AC Milan for a year, and they never said anything together. Ten sentences.
"Are you going to teach me a lesson? Save it! I've never regretted what I've done. If you want to compete, it's better to save it on the field!"
Cafu's eyes turned cold. In the Brazilian team, he is a veritable boss, but now he is ignored by a junior, which makes him angry.
"You really think you can beat Brazil?"
Digan smiled: "I haven't tried it, how do I know it won't work!"
Brazil is indeed strong, but in Degan's view, it is far from being invincible. At least compared with France, Degan feels that Brazil is easier to deal with.
The strength of Brazil is reflected in their small skills, which can indeed be called the best in the world, and the combination of strikers can be called invincible, but the defense of the Brazilian team~~~~~~~~~~
Carlos and Cafu, the magical pair of wings, used to be awesome, but now! Although there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, it depends on how old he is. Carlos still has speed, but what about Cafu? Old is useless!
In AC Milan this season, it has been proven countless times. Cafu is old. He can no longer shoulder the heavy responsibility of attacking and defending the team's wing. It has long since been invincible when he was in Rome In the eyes of Degan, Cafu is not even as reliable as Simic.
As for Carlos, although the speed is still there, there is only one speed left, attack, can't attack, defend, can't defend, Digan even maliciously wanted Pereira to bring the second elder of the defense line, probably for the sake of respecting the old use.
Lucio has played against Juan and Degan before. Although Lucio is one of the best central defenders in world football, he also has a well-known weakness. This weakness is the most fatal of all defensive players. That is, the head is prone to heat.
Once the game is exciting, or when the game is deadlocked, Lucio will automatically activate his passive skills-his head is boiling.
Then he will attack recklessly, leaving a large space behind him.
And Juan, Juan at his peak, even Digan would have a headache, but fortunately, Juan is no longer at his peak. This season in Rome, he has made countless fatal mistakes , and the turning speed is slow, which is also Degan's favorite type.
Although the conversation between Degan and Kafu was very quiet, Kaka, who was only a Dida away from Kafu, could still hear it clearly.
Kaka wanted to speak out to stop him, but he held back and could only sigh helplessly.
The two teams played the national anthem, took a poss photo, and then Degan and Cafu stood on the center line.
The on-duty referee was the Swede Sorensen. Of course he knew all the shit before the game. Seeing the two standing at the same place and seeing each other collide, sparks could be splashed, and he lamented in his heart.
"I hope you can focus on the game. If any unpleasant things happen, I will not show mercy!"
Digan shrugged indifferently: "Of course! I'm here today to play football! I'm not fighting against some people!"
Kafu's complexion turned dark, and he gritted his teeth and said, "That's right! We won't cause trouble either!"
Guess what, Digan has never lost, and it is the same today. It is easy to win a small game first.
With the whistle of the referee, the game officially began. The Belgian team took the lead to kick off. After passing the football several times, it reached Degan's feet. It felt that this taciturn bastard was aiming at his left leg.
When he was in the locker room before, Degan's left leg had been re-fixed by the team doctor, and he had been given an injection to seal it off. If he was injured again, he would automatically bid farewell to the World Cup stage without the Brazilian working hard.
Degan didn't dare to be negligent. He flicked the ball away from Emerson's tackle, and then directly handed the ball to his striker partner Mponsa Jr., in order to relieve Degan's pressure in this game. , A double striker formation was formed.
Mponsa Jr. received the ball and passed it straight forward. Digan slapped the horse and rushed the ball forward, avoiding Ze Roberto, and then rushed to the Brazilian team's penalty area.
Lucio and Juan were teammates when they were in Leverkusen before, and they cooperated very well. Seeing Digan rushing over, he directly closed the goal and intercepted the ball.
Belgium's first attack ended without a problem, and Degan shook his head helplessly. If his left leg was not injured, he would definitely be able to sneak through the gap between Lucio and Juan before they closed the door, but the left leg Injuries affected his speed.
The Brazilian team took advantage of the situation to counterattack. After a quick pass, the football reached Kaka's feet. Although Ronaldo and Ronaldinho are the most famous in the Brazilian team's lineup, in Pereira's tactics, the core of the offense is It's Kaka.
After Kaka got the ball, an open field appeared in front of him. The Brazilian team's offensive and defensive transition was so fast that the Belgian team, which was still attacking just now, couldn't take it back.
"Brazil's chance, Kaka got the ball and moved forward quickly. The Belgian team's defense made a mistake. They invested too much force in the offense just now."
Gul posted up, slowing down Kaka a little, buying time for rearranging the defensive formation.
But now Kaka is in his peak state. As long as football reaches his feet, there is basically no solution. Although Gul's body is strong, Kaka's physical fitness is not bad.
The two entangled to the front of the penalty area. At this moment, Ronaldinho had reached the left side of the Belgian team, and Adriano was also on the side to attract the attention of the Belgian team's defense.
Kaka reached out to block Gul behind him, and was about to shoot, but at this moment, Kaka suddenly rose into the air and fell forward.
Seeing this, Pereira rushed to the sideline yelling: "Foul! Foul! Penalty! Penalty!"
But the referee on duty didn't say anything.
Kaka fell to the ground and looked back. The tackler was Digan, who was still in the Brazilian team's half just now.
The two brothers looked at each other, and immediately turned their eyes away. Digan got up and ran forward.
Pereira was still pestering the fourth official, protesting unrelentingly: "This is a foul, don't you all~~~~~~ Don't you see it?"
Pereira resisted the urge to curse, if he could get a penalty kick at the beginning of the game and send Digan off by the way, the game would be a sure thing.
The fourth official didn't talk nonsense with Pereira, because the big screen at the scene had already given the answer. Although Digan's tackle just now seemed dangerous, it was very clean and neat. He tackled the football directly from behind Kaka. After that, Kaka was brought down.
"The game started less than three minutes ago, but both sides' offensive and defensive rhythms were very fast. The Wright brothers also completed their first collision on the stage of the World Cup. In the first round, Degan had a slight upper hand and stopped Kaka. An attack by Ka! I think those neutral fans can look forward to this game, it will be a beautiful offensive and defensive battle!"
