Volume 4 World Cup Legends Chapter 91 The Great War Rises Again

May 27, quaNBen,

The first pair to make their debut in the quarter-finals were hosts Brazil, five-time World Cup champions, and Euro 04 champions Greece.

The title of Euro 04 champion sounds very stylish, [Hell no self becomes heaven hand play fine school version] In fact, the current Greek team is very vegetable, and it has been beyond everyone's expectations to reach the round of 16, and he relies on the Brazilian team to compete with their steel-like backline, although Rehhagel left Greece after the World Cup in South Africa, but the main watch Santos Xiao Gui Cao followed, and did not make much progress on the team's style of play

The change, the practical defensive counter-attack and the strong body gave everyone a bit of a headache.

Brazil, who scored 10 goals in three group games, showed the world their attacking prowess, and in the treacherous situation of the top half of the zone, Brazil still won the title by a long margin, which also fully shows that the outside world is optimistic about the Brazilian team, and the Greek team has almost anything to stop the Brazilians' yearning for a sixth star in this game.

As soon as the match began, to the shouts of the 100,000 fans in the stadium, the Brazilian team launched an onslaught on the Greeks.

Just three minutes into the game, the Brazilian team achieved a fantastic game, after the dazzling passing of many superstars in the front, the ball reached the feet of the veteran Kaka, Kaka did not make adjustments, pulled out the foot and shot, this kick is Kaka to try his foot style, and the play is relatively positive, but the ball accidentally hit the defender Kyriakos Papadopoulos who plays for Schalke 04 and refracted it. Goalkeeper Sfarkis, who had already made a save, could only watch helplessly as the ball rolled into the net from the opposite direction.

1:0, Brazil leads.

The Brazilian fans couldn't believe their eyes, and the goal was scored, which was like God helping the Brazilian team, who thought it would take a lot of effort for the Brazilian team to knock on the door of the Greek team.

Unexpected one-goal lead, the game completely entered the rhythm of the Brazilian team, although the Greeks were not ready to win, but this goal disrupted their game plan, the original prepared defensive counterattack tactics could not be used, they could only press out to play. The game became a game of Brazilians passing the ball and the Greeks chasing it.

In the eighth minute of the game, Brazilian midfielder Ganso cut to the left side on the right side, Neymar's skills at his feet were very good, his continuous feints buckled the Greek defender Tezavillas under the bottom, and crossed to the Greek goal, the Greek goalkeeper Sfakis did not get the ball, and Pato, who scored four goals, appeared at the back point just right, and pushed the net at a small angle.

At 2:0, Pato scored his fifth goal, just one goal away from the top of the scorers' charts.

Brazil scored two goals in 10 minutes, and the game was completely a personal show for the Brazilians, with Greece becoming a clown at the mercy of the Brazilian team. In the first half of the game, the Brazilian team scored two more goals to seal the win 4:0, and Pato scored another goal, and the number of goals was the same as Li Huan.

However, after the break, the humiliated Greeks were like a different team, and 2,000 years of civilization have given this team an indomitable fighting spirit and spirit, holding the defence firmly, committing well-timed fouls, not giving the Brazilians a chance to perform, and using free kicks and set-pieces to attack.

Brazil have been a bit slack after scoring four goals, with some of the frontcourt players even setting aside the outcome to create a hat-trick for Pato, who want to keep both the champion and the top scorer in Brazil. This attitude of play wasted a lot of attacking opportunities for Brazil, and Pato did not score.

Thirty minutes into the second half, the Greek Salas finally saved face for his country with a powerful header.

More than 2,000 Greek fans who came to cheer on the scene burst into tears after the goal, shouting frantically and venting their excitement.

However, Greece is limited after all, and the four goals conceded in front also caused a big psychological shadow to their backline, and in the last fifteen minutes of the game, the Brazilian team used skillful cooperation by Neymar to score a goal again, and finally the Brazilian team unexpectedly beat the Greek team 5:1 and won a place in the quarterfinals.

After the game, the Brazilian media praised Brazil for entering the state of winning the championship, believing that although the Brazilian team does not have as many stars as the German World Cup, they cooperate more tacitly, the integrity is better, and more importantly, the team is no longer full of gangs, big guys, and Kaka has played a good role as a leading brother.

The second quarter-final match was between another South American giant, Argentine and the United States, Argentina had a slow start but after being held to a draw by Nigeria at the start, they went on to win the group with two straight wins, and the superstars in the front court have also shown good form, and they are now the favourites to win the title just behind Brazil.

The U.S. team relied on self-confidence, fighting spirit and undead physical fitness to run to the technical flow of Portugal and Crotaia, and the star-studded Argentina also took them without a good way, their short passes penetrated, and they couldn't penetrate it, Argentina's superstars Messi, Aguero, and Higuain are not power-based plays, and they can't break the Americans' running at all costs, and the dense defense at the edge of the penalty area. The first half ended in a 0-0 draw.

In the second half, Argentina accelerated the pace of attack and defense, Messi, Aguero and other superstars frequently used their individual abilities to make a little breakthrough, and in the 70th minute, the physical strength of the United States team declined, and Argentina, which was not stopping, finally found an opportunity.

Messi, who was in the center of the field, showed his ghostly dribbling, rushing into the box with two people in a radius of less than three meters, and penetrating goalkeeper Howard's file into the net, opening the door to victory for Argentina.

Then Messi's state was out of control, using his extremely fast kick speed to grab a point in front of the goal, and in the counterattack, Messi scored a hat trick in ten minutes, helping Argentina beat the United States 3-0, and Messi also scored 5 goals. Second only to Li Huan and Pato.

Argentina have made it to the quarter-finals of the World Cup in Brazil, and their next opponent is hosts Brazil. The collision of the two giants in South America will also be the heaviest and hottest game in the next round of elimination.

After the two quarter-finals in the first half, there will be two games in the bottom half. First up was the heaviest and most interesting game in the quarter-finals, England vs. France, which was also considered by the media and football celebrities to be the final.

The British team and the French team have played 27 games in the history of the press, and the French team has 7 wins, 4 draws and 16 losses, scoring 34 goals and conceding 65 goals; Among them, the two teams have played 6 games in the competition, with France winning 1, drawing 2 and losing 3, scoring 7 goals and conceding 9 goals; In 2 meetings between neutral venues, France drew 1 and lost 1, scored 1 goal and conceded 3 goals.

Judging from the historical record, England is far better than the French team, but the historical record is too long, and the real strength of the two teams can not be seen, in fact, since the French team won the World Cup in 98, the British team has not defeated the French team, in the three games between the two sides, the French team defeated England 2:1 and 2:0 in the Euro 04 and Euro 12 respectively, and also won 1:0 in the 08 warm-up. It is also completely valid to say that the French team has restrained England over the years.

The last ten years is the rapid development of the Premier League, with Premier League players as the team of England can be described as full of talent, but they have a group of good players, but they have never been able to grind into shape, the results of the competition have been poor, as the originator of modern football, the England national team's sluggish results have embarrassed British fans and the FA, they learned from the pain, invited the gold medal coach Capello,

And there is no doubt about the use of people, in the case of the World Cup in South Africa did not achieve the ideal results, still Kente let Capello continue to coach, in the 12 European Championship, England reached the final, and now the Three Lions have become a team with strong fighting power.

After Zidane's retirement, the French team has been in the post-Zidane era, and the later players have been compared with Zizou by the French media, but no one can reach half of Zizou's height, their situation is similar to that of Maradona after retiring, but, even so, the French team should not be underestimated, they not only have a lot of talented talents, war

The style of play is also flexible, and even the host Brazil team does not have a good way to take the French team.

England and France are evenly matched, and each can be sure to beat their opponents, and this kind of game is precisely the most beautiful and easy to produce classics.

Before the game, Brazil's "Globo Sports" said that this is the match between the two countries that have the greatest impact on world football, England is the birthplace of modern football, and France is the creator of the World Cup.

Globo Sports believes that the veterans Fabio Capello's England will beat France in this game to advance, and England will also reach the final against Brazil.

The French press was also cheering for the French team, with the headline of the newspaper "Forward France!" 》

The title of Sport de France is "We have nothing to fear, the Gallic rooster will advance to the final".

The British media chanted that God owed England 48 years and that it was time for England to win the title, and they called on fans to go to Brazil to cheer on the team and seize this golden opportunity.

Not only Brazilian, British and French media campaigned for the tournament, but also major media outlets around the world

shifted the focus of the broadcast to this Anglo-French battle, and the country's veterans and fans also became cloudy

At the Morembi Stadium in São Paulo, where the two teams played, the eighths of the knockout round had just been played one day ago, and ** had arrived early.
