Chapter 95 Semi-Final 1 Is About to Begin
"Who will win?"
"Of course I hope China, after all, Belgium beat us."
"That's what we said four years ago."
"But if Belgium loses to China, wouldn't it be embarrassing for us to lose to Belgium? Does this mean that the gap between us and the Chinese team is a bit big?"
Brazilian fans are very conflicted. They want to support the Chinese team, but they feel that Brazil is worthless. Many Brazilian fans showed up at the St. Petersburg Stadium and were still watching the World Cup.
Wearing yellow Brazil jerseys, they all thought that their home team was coming here to play the semifinals, so they booked tickets, air tickets and accommodation in advance. However, their wishes failed, but they still came to the scene.
Indeed, if the Brazilian team defeated the Belgian team in the previous game in Kazan, then it would indeed come here to play the semi-finals with the Chinese team.
Unfortunately, they eventually lost to their opponents and went home early. The Brazilian team went home early, but fans need to confirm their itinerary early. Many Brazilian fans have booked their air tickets and accommodation to St. Petersburg several days in advance, because if they do not book in advance, they are likely to sleep on the streets.
"When the Chinese Dong boss has completely withdrawn from the Chinese national team, opportunities for other teams will come. Now, please believe that this guy will continue to create miracles. Since the Chinese team can reach the semi-finals, it has the ability to win the championship. If I am a gambler, and I will definitely always bet on him. There will never be a second option. Just like if we have Pele or Maradona in our team, we must believe in them."
"Don't underestimate Ronaldo. Ronaldo has also entered the semi-finals. Maybe the final is China VS Portugal. This year, the national team with two superstars won the World Cup. Belgium and Croatia were a little bit behind."
"Cristiano Ronaldo is very strong, but he is also much weaker than the Chinese Dong. Judging from their previous duels, Cristiano Ronaldo also won less and lost more. History shows that when a football king comes to the world, there will always be a great player to accompany him. This is true for both Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi."
As a Brazilian fan, I am drunk to worry about the affairs of other countries. Who said that the Brazilian national team has only had one Neymar in recent years, and it cannot shake the strength of the top three in the world. In the past, fans from other countries envied Brazil for having many stars, but now Brazil no longer has such an advantage. After top stars such as Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and Kaká retired, Neymar could not lead Brazil to recovery, and Brazil no longer had its past glory.
At this time, the St. Petersburg Stadium was already crowded with people. Chinese fans in red jerseys and Belgian fans in white jerseys were standing in front of each other. Fans on both sides almost dyed the stands red and white. On the Chinese Red side, the fans waved the five-star red flag and beat the gongs and drums loudly. The momentum was obviously more powerful.
Through the live broadcast footage, you can also see several famous Chinese football players sitting in the VIP seats. They are all players who won the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. Chen Tao and Qu Bo, who have retired, both won the World Cup with the Chinese team. champion. Originally Zhu Ting was supposed to appear here, but a scandal broke out when the World Cup just started and Zhu Ting returned home in despair.
Next to them, Zhao Junzhe was sitting. However, Zhao Junzhe was not so lucky and failed to win a championship with the national team. However, he is now the head of the Logistics and Equipment Department and belongs to the leadership of the Football Association.
On the other side of Zhao Junzhe were Sun Jihai and Shao Jiayi, both of whom were also world champions. They whispered to each other from time to time with smiles on their faces.
In the live commentary stand, Duan Xuan and Huang Jianxiang had already started their live broadcast, and nearly 600 million people across the country were watching their live broadcast.
"We have the starting lineup now."
"Belgium should be playing a 343 formation. Because there is one less full-back, coach Martinez has changed the formation. 343 also means that Belgium will attack us. Like the French team before, the Chinese team's defense will will continue to withstand world-class testing.”
"Goalkeeper: Courtois."
“Defenders: Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Kompany.
"
"Midfield: Witsel, De Bruyne, Fellaini, Dembélé."
"Forwards: Hazard, Lukaku, Chadli."
"This Dembele is not the French Dembele. He is not as famous as the French one, but his fighting ability is no worse than him."
"For the Chinese team, the goalkeeper is Zeng Cheng, the defenders are Wang Gang, Feng Xiaoting, Zheng Zhi, and Li Xuepeng, the midfielders are Huang Bowen, Zhao Xuri, Wu Xi, Zheng Zhi, and the forwards are Wei Shihao and Feng Jin. Wu Sanshi did not start. Very surprising. Dong Fangzhuo seems to be very good at tactics. Neither Wei Shihao nor Feng Jin has a height advantage, but they have speed and technical advantages. In fact, I think the Chinese team is still in a forwardless formation today. Dong Fangzhuo, Feng Jin and Wei Shihao They are all players who can play alone or as a team, and can maximize their frontcourt role."
"The bookmaker is slightly optimistic about Belgium and has opened a handicap for Belgium to draw half. In addition, they believe that this game will be a big goal game. The combined number of goals between the two sides is estimated to reach 3. But in the last game The match between the Chinese team and the French team only ended at 1:0. I don’t believe that we can score a big score in this semi-final, after all, it is a World Cup semi-final.”
"For the Chinese team, the impact of facing Hazard, Lukaku and De Bruyne at the same time today is no less than the combination of Mbappe, Griezmann and Carew. Especially De Bruyne Laone and Hazard, both of them are players who can pass, burst and shoot. It’s scary to have one of these players, but Belgium actually has two of them at the same time.”
"Needless to say for the Chinese team, the performance of the entire team depends on Dong Fangzhuo. We have to admit that Dong Fangzhuo is our greatest hope. All teammates revolve around him. He is the only core of the entire team. .”
"What surprised me was that Dong Fangzhuo made a lot of adjustments in this game. Feng Jin, Wei Shihao, Wu Xi, Li Xuepeng, Wang Gang, nearly half of the players had no experience in the World Cup semi-finals, but Dong Fangzhuo still made bold decisions. Change. These players will also be the main force in the 2022 China World Cup. After this World Cup is over, it is estimated that many players will withdraw from the national team stage. Players such as Zheng Zhi, Huang Bowen, and Zhao Xuri are basically unlikely to have a 2022 World Cup. The only thing we can look forward to in the World Cup is Dong Fangzhuo..."
…
…
The national anthem was played in the St. Petersburg Stadium, and Dong Fangzhuo led his team to the World Cup finals again. Every player was singing the national anthem, with focused eyes and perseverance written on their faces.
The war is about to break out.
