No. 1104: "Chen, you owe me a Golden Globe!" ”
At the end of the game, at the Lviv Stadium, the German fans cheered loudly, and the German team avoided the fate of being eliminated from the group.
At the Kharkiv Stadium, the Dutch fans burst into applause, and the Portuguese fans shed bitter tears because Portugal was unfortunately eliminated......
When the players of the two teams shook hands with each other, Pepe patted Chen Fan the shoulder and didn't say anything.
Chen Fan didn't say anything, he was not a person who was good at comforting people.
When Ronaldo shook hands with Chen Fan, he whispered in his ear: "Chen, you owe me a Golden Globe Award!" ”
No one but the two of them could understand this, and it had something to do with a secret agreement between them.
When Ronaldo was clamoring to leave the Bernabeu, Chen Fan once told him that he would help him win the Ballon d'Or next year.
Since winning the Ballon d'Or in 08, the Portuguese superstar has not won the Ballon d'Or for three years, and was taken by Messi in 09 and Chen Fan in the next two years.
Ronaldo finally chose to stay, as for how much Chen Fan's words played a role in this, only the Portuguese themselves know.
Chen Fan nodded and said, "Okay, I have never forgotten this sentence. ”
Ronaldo ended up giving him a gentle tap on the shoulder before leaving......
Chen Fan looked at his slightly depressed back, and exhaled heavily, the football field is like this, someone must leave if someone stays.
……
In the mixed interview area, Ronaldo was surrounded by reporters.
'I'm very sorry to be eliminated in this way, but I can only accept this result because we didn't play well in the previous game.
The Portuguese superstar was not in a good mood, and the reporters did not try to stimulate him and ask the questions that made him uncomfortable.
A British journalist asked: "Who do you think will win the championship?" ”
Cristiano Ronaldo thought for a moment and said: "If the Netherlands' defense improves, I am bullish on the Netherlands." Of course, Spain are also very strong and they could also win the championship. ”
A French journalist asked: "Will you be following the next matches of the European Championship?" ”
Roma replied: "Of course, I will always follow the next matches and see who can have the last laugh!" ”
Speaking to reporters in the mixed interview area at the Lviv Stadium, German captain Lahm said: "To be honest, we didn't play very well tonight, Denmark caused us a lot of difficulties, but luckily we managed our destiny in the end. ”
Dutch reporters don't see it that way, with one reporter from Amsterdam asking: "Germany's ability to qualify is also related to the Netherlands' draw with Portugal." If the Netherlands loses 3-1 to Portugal, Germany will be eliminated! ”
"What do you want to say to the Dutch team now?"
Lahm was a little embarrassed, Germany and the Netherlands are a pair of football rivals, and he really couldn't say enough to say thank the Netherlands.
He exhaled deeply and said: "The Netherlands embodies sportsmanship, which is commendable. If this were the case in Germany, it would do the same! We will take every game seriously, we don't think about who to calculate, the green field should be a clean place! ”
German journalists immediately burst into applause and applauded Ram's resourcefulness.
Kharkiv Stadium, although Chen Fan is not the protagonist of tonight's game, he still becomes the object that reporters want to interview the most.
A Spanish journalist asked: "Chen, haven't you ever thought about joining hands with Portugal to qualify?" ”
This question is a pit, and if Chen Fan's answer is slightly bad, it will cause a storm of public opinion.
"We never thought about how we were going to qualify, and we never thought about who we were going to lose. Cristiano is my team-mate, Khedira is my team-mate, and I don't feel comfortable with either of them leaving the Euros. ”
Chen Fan said in a deep voice: "If someone stays, someone leaves, this is the law of the football field, and no one can escape." ”
……
The next day, the Guardian used this headline to illustrate the final result of the group of death: Portugal is home!
In the article, they wrote: "The final round of the Group of Death was full of ups and downs, and Portugal saw the light of day of qualifying, but they still couldn't escape the fate of being eliminated in the end!
In fact, at the end of the game, Portugal still had a chance to qualify, at that time Germany was only one goal ahead of Denmark, as long as Portugal can complete one more goal, it can beat Germany by goal difference.
However, Van Marwijk brought on Chen and Sneijder at such times and did not give Portugal a chance.
Even in the end, Robben scored the equalizer to completely deprive Portugal of any hope of qualifying.
In last night's game, Cristiano was back in form and scored twice, but his form came too late. If he had that form against Germany, it would have been Germany, not Portugal, who would have been eliminated.
The Germans should be grateful for the sportsmanship of the Netherlands, and in the post-match press conference, Loew said: 'We qualified firstly because of our hard work and secondly because of the Dutch sportsmanship, and I would like to express my respect for the Dutch team!' ’
Loew's words spoke to the German's heart, and the Dutch star's name rang out at the Lviv Stadium after Arjen Robben's equaliser.
On the one hand, Robben won the love of German fans at Bayern, and on the other hand, because of Robben's goal, which directly shattered Portugal's hopes of qualifying!
The Dutch approach deserves respect, and football stadiums need such positive energy! ”
……
The final round of the first two groups was a powerful thrill, and the suspense of the promotion was always present before the end of the game, which left fans hooked and full of anticipation for the next match.
With the final round of the Group of Death over, attention immediately turned to Group C.
The best in Group C are Spain and Croatia at the top of the group, both of which have won one and drawn one before that.
In the final round of the group, the two teams will face each other directly.
Italy, who have drawn two in a row, are also hopeful of qualifying, as they would be able to reach five points with a last-out-of-its-kind win over eliminated Ireland in the final round.
If Spain and Croatia are decided, the Italians will finish second in the group.
If Spain and Croatia draw together, it will be a goal difference and goals scored by all three teams.
Spain are undoubtedly the most dominant with four goal difference and Croatia with two.
If that happens, Italy will have to beat Ireland by at least two goals to have any hope of qualifying.
Again, this is a delicate situation.
On the 19th, the final round of Group C was played, with Italy playing Ireland at the Poznan Municipal Stadium and Spain playing Croatia at the PGE Arena in Gdansk.
At half past seven in the evening, the two games started on time!
The fateful moment has come!
