Chapter 108 There is no right or wrong in football

After the game, the dressing room of the Belgian team was full of cheers. Now they can finally indulge. Degan no longer put on a bad face, and celebrated with his teammates. After this game, the German World Cup European qualifiers The pattern of the seventh group of the game has been completely changed.

The Belgian team, which has won two consecutive victories, now has 14 points. In a game played in Lithuania at the same time, the mighty Spain was held to a difficult draw by the Lithuanians. They only scored one point in the two games. Fourteen points, while Serbia and Montenegro only had thirteen points.

Comparing the relationship between victory and defeat, Spain ranks first in the group, Belgium ranks second in the group, and Serbia and Montenegro ranks third in the group. The other three teams in this group, Lithuania, Bosnia and Herzegovina and San Marino, have completely lost their competition. Chance.

Belgium's next two games will be at home against Lithuania, and then in the final round of the group stage, they will go away to challenge Spain.

The situation in Spain is relatively severe. In addition to facing the revived European Red Devils in the last game, they also have to challenge Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The Serbia and Montenegro team also has the hope of appearing. Their next two opponents are Bosnia and Herzegovina and San Marino. They can appear as long as they win both games, regardless of the results of the Belgium and Spain games.

The previous qualifying situation was still in jeopardy, but now the Belgians can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Although the final contest will be decided in Madrid in October in the second half of the year, they are already qualified to make it to this point. relax.

The celebrations in the dressing room continued, and it looked as if they had won the World Cup, and no matter how unmannered the Serbs were, they would not be expelled at this time.

But embarrassment is inevitable. The door of the locker room was pushed open, and Antiiennis walked in. He had just attended the press conference. Looking at his helpless expression, it was obvious that he had just been tortured by reporters from this country.

"Not very smooth!?" Digan asked with a smile.

Antiiennis smiled, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course! People here feel that we shamefully stole a victory. Of course, we need to find a punching bag and vent it!"

It was all in Degan's expectation. Although the rules of this world are the princes who win and the thieves who lose, but in the end, the thieves who lose are rarely able to accept the status of losers. Everyone knows how to make excuses. Trick, there's nothing surprising about that.

"They feel that we have tarnished the game of football by playing negatively at the last moment of the game!"

Digan didn't feel angry when he heard it, but only thought it was amused: "It's okay! If they say that our actions have affected the diplomatic relations between the two countries, that would be bad!"

Antiiennis was not in the mood to listen to Digan's jokes, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay! Now it's your turn, they can't wait to torture you!"

Degan is the best player in this game. According to the rules, he has to go out for an interview. He scored both goals. Of course, if Gul's luck is better, it will not be his turn. up.

"Guys! Is anyone willing to go with me, this is a great opportunity to increase popularity!"

But it was obvious that no one wanted such an opportunity. Gull and Van Buyten even pushed Digan, who was still naked to the waist, out of the locker room.

All right! This is how the Belgians treat their national heroes! Just like they did with that little boy in Berne, keeping him from wearing pants for hundreds of years.

The staff of UEFA obviously didn't expect Digan to appear in such an image, but it doesn't matter as long as he is alive and can speak, then there is no problem.

Degan, who just appeared in the player tunnel, was quickly surrounded by countless reporters. Before the reporters launched a siege, Degan quickly took out a pair of sunglasses and put them on. Who knows where he put them on? It was taken out.

"Okay! Just ask!"

The reporters were helpless for a while by Degan's behavior, but their professionalism made them decide to get down to business.

"Rod! Are the tactics for the second half of the game formulated in advance?" This is obviously a Belgian reporter.

Digan also cooperated very much, saying: "No! It was coach Antiiennis who made the changes based on the situation in the first half. You all saw that in the first half, our situation was very bad, and my performance was the same. Bad! So coach Antiiennis suggested that I move the position back, and then you all saw what happened next!"

"Today's Belgian team feels very different from before, especially in terms of the relationship between players, Rhodes! How did all this happen?"

Degan knew that this would attract the attention of all Belgians. After all, the conflict between the Flemish and the Walloons had a long history.

"We just feel that everyone should behave as one. There are no Flemish nationals, no Walloons, and no other nationalities in the Belgian national team. When we decided to wear this red jersey, We have only one identity, the Belgian national team, we represent a country, and we must do our best to win honor for this country. I have mentioned it repeatedly in the team before. Knowing what I mean, I'm happy for this change, it will make us more effective!"

"The combat power you are referring to is delaying time during the game?" This is obviously a Serb who is not convinced after losing the game, and of course it may be an old monster from Montenegro.

"Delaying time?" Digan said with a smile, "Do you think so?"

The reporter said as a matter of course: "Of course! There is no doubt about it. When the game is nearing the end, you keep standing in the backcourt and delaying the game. This is an insult to football!"

"You should also add a sentence, we set football backwards! This is complete!" After Degan finished speaking, some reporters present couldn't help laughing, "What do you think today's game is, this is not a child Fighting is related to the fate of a team, we fight with all our strength on the field, and want to win, we should not be insulted like this by you!"

"Is it acceptable to delay the game? It will make football lose its charm!"

"The charm of football is victory!" Degan retorted loudly, "The charm of football, I think this reporter must be a perfectionist, so what do you think of the penalty we should have won in the first half? This is also a part of football, not to mention that everyone makes mistakes, there is no right or wrong in football, football only wins and loses! We used to be losers, but now we have regained our dignity, but you are just losing consecutively Poor worms who dare not admit it, look at the first half, when you escaped a penalty kick, you cheered, but once your situation was unfavorable, or even failed, you would just make excuses and take all the responsibility Blame it all on the opponent, use what I said to my teammates just now, when you fail and get used to making excuses, you have already lost the heart of a champion!"

The Serbian reporter was left speechless by Digan's words, but the other reporters' eyes lit up. They could foresee that after today, Digan's words would inevitably spread throughout the world.

After calming down for a while, Digan continued: "For Serbia and Montenegro, the end of the world has not yet come, and you still have a chance to appear, and this opportunity needs to be seized by you, rather than relying on others to give you alms. Can you Do you expect us to open the goal at the last critical moment of the game and let you score casually? Such an idea is too stupid!"

After saying this, Degan turned around and left without giving other reporters a chance to ask questions. He felt that he had finished what he had to say, and even if he stayed, all he could say would be nonsense.

Digan left, and the reporters gradually dispersed. The reporter who had been taught a lesson by Digan stood there, looking at his expression as if he was thinking.

There is no right or wrong in football!

Indeed, when Serbia and Montenegro avoided a penalty in the first half, did they think it was wrong?

Similarly, at the last moment of the second half of the game, the Belgian team led by one goal and had an advantage in numbers. They only need to kill the time to win the game. Their approach is also understandable.

There's nothing right or wrong about this!

From the perspective of Serbia and Montenegro, they certainly hope that Belgium can fight like a man, confront them, and then give them a chance to equalize.

But the Belgians are definitely unwilling to do this, they will choose a more secure approach, just to win.

When Degan returned to the locker room, the first thing he saw was the gloating expressions of the Belgian players. Degan smiled helplessly: "Don't do that! Nothing happened, especially nothing happened. What do you say about the scene you want to see?" What? Everything is in harmony!"

I just don't know if these Belgian soil turtles can understand this word invented by the Chinese.

On the same day, the Belgian national team returned to Brussels by plane. They were warmly welcomed by the fans at the airport. Such a scene made Digan, who had seen big scenes, couldn't help but be shocked.

Football is a common language in Europe, and almost all countries are in a crazy position. However, football has been a bit harsh on Belgian fans in recent years. They have not tasted the taste of victory for a long time, and now this feeling is especially precious to them.
