Chapter 96: The First Battle of the African Eagle

Nigeria is able to rank among the world's top teams, and naturally there are reasons for it. At the beginning, Nigeria was also called star-studded, but in recent years, as Okocha's players have gradually aged and retired, Nigerian football has also In the 2006 World Cup in Germany, Nigeria was blocked from the finals.

Kanu, the former number one star, can only sit on the bench and watch the scenery now. It is Yakubu who has a very low scoring efficiency in the Premier League for Nigeria.

This game started in Johannesburg, South Africa. Almost from the first second after the start of the game, the European Red Devils Belgium showed super dominance.

Under the leadership of Degan, the young army with an average age of only 22 years old in the starting lineup completely suppressed the African Eagles. The offensive was wave after wave. After trying several counterattacks, there was no way to push the football forward. After reaching the penalty area, Nigeria seemed to accept its fate, concentrated all its energy, and began to defend. Obinna retreated to the midfield, leaving only Yakubu in front of him to be in charge.

In the stands, this time Park Ji-yeon sat in the position of the Belgian wives, and beside her were a few friends who came with her, as well as a few staff members carrying cameras.

This time, Park Ji-yeon came to South Africa not just to watch the game, but to record a reality show for a TV station in Korea by watching the game.

Originally, this program mainly recorded Park Ji-yeon and others cheering for the Korean team, but now that South Korea has lost, and there is no shame left in the loss, the Koreans can only look for comfort in Digan, the Korean son-in-law. .

On the pitch, the Belgian team's explosive energy turned the game into a half-court offensive and defensive drill. Most of the time, football was played back and forth in Nigeria's half-court.

It is normal for Degan to perform well. The most surprising thing is the performance of the young man entrusted by Antiiennis. The full-back Alderweireld has assisted again and again, and the quality of several passes is also very good. high.

Lukaku's performance as Degan's partner is also impressive. With him at the forefront, Degan can retreat with ease and connect the entire team's offense.

The most surprising thing is Hazard. This young player showed a maturity that does not match his age. He ran very actively on the field and passed a few times. He was also quite threatening. In the seventh minute of the game, he At that time, he also received a return pass from Digan and took a long shot from outside the penalty area, which barely touched the goal post and flew out of the baseline.

"Although the score is still 0:0, it seems that there is no suspense in this game. It is reasonable for Belgium to win in the end. People are probably most concerned about when Digan can break Ronaldo's upper hand. The record of fifteen goals created in one World Cup!"

Currently, Degan and Ronaldo are tied for first place in the World Cup scorer list. They both scored 15 goals, but Ronaldo scored 15 goals in four World Cups, while Degan only used one. session.

In the last World Cup, Degan scored fifteen goals in seven games, breaking the French legendary striker Fontaine's scoring record in a single World Cup, and finally tied with Ronaldo for the top scorer list in the World Cup.

It can be said that if Degan was not injured and the final ended early, I am afraid that in the last World Cup, Degan would have won the top scorer list.

Fifteen minutes into the first half, Degan had already had two chances to score, one of which, receiving a cross from Hazard, headed the goal, and was single-handed by Nigerian goalkeeper Enyeyama The crossbar, another shot, hit the post of the goal, which made the Belgian fans sigh.

But the goal will come sooner or later. When the game progressed to the 21st minute in the first half, after receiving a pass from Hazard, Degan entered the penalty area of Nigeria. Under the pull, Degan barely stabilized his figure. Facing the attacking Enyeyama, the daring Degan chose to shoot with a kick.

Enyeyama was caught off guard and could only look up, watching the football fly over his head and crash into the goal behind him.

Accompanied by Degan's goal, the stands suddenly boiled, and the Belgian fans who had been prepared for a long time showed their banners at the first time - paying tribute to the legend, Degan, 16 goals!

At the moment Digan scored, Park Ji-yeon jumped up excitedly, hugged her friends, shouted excitedly, and forgot that there was a camera around her.

"Goal! Goal!"

The person hugged by Park Ji-yeon was a member of her idol group. Seeing Park Ji-yeon's excited appearance, the friend couldn't help laughing and said, "Ah! Our Ji-yeon was so happy that he forgot everything when Digan's son-in-law scored a goal! "

After scoring this goal, Degan was also very excited. He stood up with both hands and feet, took off his jersey, exposed his strong muscles, and rushed out roaring.

The teammates on the field also ran towards Digan, and finally stopped him in front of the Belgian team's bench, and everyone rushed over together.

"Goal! Rhodes scored! This is his sixteenth goal in the World Cup. Great! Great! Now is the only word that can be used to describe Rod's greatness, two World Cups, sixteen goals , he has now become the well-deserved number one in the world! Long live Rhodes! Long live Rhodes!"

The Belgian commentator yelled hoarsely, while the Nigerian commentator sitting next to him had a gloomy face. He also knew that with Degan's goal, Nigeria had no chance to win.

The wild celebrations on the sidelines of the court continued. When Degan stood up again, the Belgian coach Antiiennis sent a flag that had been prepared a long time ago to Degan. It was printed with a big The number one one sixteen!

Degan took it, stood on the side of the court, and planted the flagpole hard on the ground, and the Belgian fans cheered again.

In Belgium's first World Cup match in South Africa, Degan broke the record. People have reason to believe that in this World Cup, he will continue to refresh his own record. When Degan leaves the stadium, he will What kind of legend will be left behind, people are now looking forward to more and more.

The celebration was finally over with the intervention of the referee and the game was restarted, but the game, with Degan's goal, was basically killed.

Nigeria wanted a reactionary counterattack, but their offense still did not improve. After the Belgian team scored a goal, their offense remained undiminished. Looking at the form on the field, it seemed that they were behind.

Just five minutes after Degan's goal, Belgium extended their lead. Degan's long-range shot from the left side of the penalty area concentrated the crossbar of the goal. Lukaku scored a header before the Nigerian defender cleared the siege. His first goal on the World Cup stage.

After falling behind by two goals, Nigeria was completely stunned. The African players had good physical fitness and outstanding skills, and they could not fully display their characteristics. In the next game, they could only be beaten passively.

But Belgium did not give up the desire to continue scoring goals because of Nigeria's early disarmament. Argentina in the same group has already won South Korea, and it has won by three goals. The Belgians are not willing to let Argentina ride on their heads. They are the champions. want.

Before the end of the first half, Belgium scored again, this time by defender Kompany. Degan took a corner kick. Kompany, surrounded by Nigerian defenders, jumped high and scored a powerful header. Goal, the ball went straight into the dead corner.

3:0!

The Belgian fans in the stands are going crazy with joy at this moment. The dark history of Belgian football has long been left behind by them. Since Degan came to the team, every day of the national team's game has become After their festival, they only need to cheer and sing in the stands, and then welcome the victory of each game.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. Belgium's massacre of the African Eagles continued. At the beginning of the second half, Hazard received a cross pass from Digan and scored.

In the 63rd minute, Miralas, who came off the bench, made another shot in front of the goal, extending the lead to five goals.

The Belgian fans in the stands shouted hoarsely, but no one cared, they were still shouting, cheering, and excited for every goal of the Belgian team.

In the end, when the game progressed to the 82nd minute, Degan scored a direct free kick, which sealed the game.

6:0!

"This is simply crazy. Before the game, people thought that Belgium would win this game, but no one expected that the final result of the game would be 6:0! A unilateral massacre!"

For the rest of the time, the Nigerian players lived like a year, and the Belgian side seemed to have no intention of continuing to score goals. The two sides began to consume the remaining time tacitly.

In this regard, the fans have no dissatisfaction. They are satisfied with the six-goal victory.

With the whistle of the referee, Degan exhausted his strength and kicked the ball into the stands, and then all the Belgian players rushed into the field at the first time, celebrating their first match in the World Cup in South Africa victory.

6:0!

Belgium has made a good start, and their prospects in the World Cup in South Africa are becoming more and more promising!
