Although many players in the Chinese team have intersections with Uruguayan players, and the strength of the two sides of the game is very different, the game is likely to be friendly in nature, but Uruguay has struggled to qualify from the group stage and the game has reached the semi-final stage, so no one wants to give up hope of further promotion to the final.

Even if Cavani and Godin knew how terrifying Aeloh was, they wanted to try it, after all, they didn't necessarily lose a bet......

Previously, they were simply greeting on social networks, which is the so-called salute before the soldiers.

There is only a short three-day break between the end of the third round of the group and the start of the semi-finals, which is very physically demanding for both sides of the game, but the Chinese team has already qualified for the group two rounds in advance and locked the first place in the group.

Pep Guardiola put players who are eligible to play and need more game refinement in the third round against Mexico, so that more players can be rested.

After all, the schedule of cup competitions is often very dense, and it is difficult to get to the end if you rely on a single lineup, so this is a test of the head coach's rotation skills and whether he can stabilize the team's results in the dense schedule.

Obviously, Pep Guardiola is such a manager, his rotation tactics were successful, so he beat Mexico in the third round to create China's latest Confederations Cup group stage victory.

China vs Uruguay, Brazil vs Spain, in terms of attention, there is no doubt that Brazil vs Spain is more attractive, after all, both teams are extremely well-known in the international arena and belong to the top of the football food chain.

The current Chinese team has a strong upward momentum and has reached a high level of strength, but Uruguay's finishing strength is inferior to the Chinese team, so it has not attracted as much attention as Brazil and Spain in the semi-finals.

The semi-finals between China and Uruguay will precede the semi-finals between Brazil and Spain, and the game time will start at 4 o'clock in the afternoon of the 27th local time in Brazil, that is, at 3 o'clock in the morning Beijing time.

To be honest, this time is not a suitable time for Chinese fans to watch the game, but this game did not affect the enthusiasm of Chinese fans at all, even if there is still high-intensity work waiting for office workers the next day......

Of course, there are also some conscientious companies that know that the national team game that kicks off in the early morning of Beijing time is to adjust the working hours of employees, and temporarily adjust the working hours from 9 to 5 to 2 to 10.

And those workers who have not adjusted their temporary working hours can only grit their teeth and persevere, after all, many high-level competitions are played late at night, and they are well prepared.

Uruguay is very close to Brazil, so there was a lot of fans pouring into the Mineiro stadium on the day of the semi-final.

However, the population base of Chinese is large, and there are many citizens or ethnic Chinese around the world.

In addition, with the improvement of Chinese's living standards and more and more money in their pockets, they naturally want to meet a deeper level of spiritual satisfaction in the case of material satisfaction, so the number of fans cheering and cheering in this Confederations Cup semi-final with the Chinese team participating is destined to be a lot.

In terms of the number of fans alone, Chinese fans have an advantage, and there are even many fans who have booked tickets for the Confederations Cup final at the legendary Maracanã Stadium in Brazil......

※※※

The 2013 Brazilian Confederations Cup final at the Arena Mineiro was packed, but from the perspective of the stadium camera, the Chinese fans in the red jerseys far outnumbered the Uruguayan fans in the sky blue jerseys, and the Chinese fans accounted for nearly half of the stadium, except for the Brazilian fans who like to watch the Chinese team play.

In other words, the Mineiro Arena, which can accommodate 57,000 fans, has nearly 30,000 Chinese fans, which is almost like a local battle......

However, the fans of Uruguay are very enthusiastic, and the outburst of more than 10,000 fans from Uruguay is not at all down.

If Uruguay want to beat China in this game, they will have to rely on goalkeeper Muslera, central defender Godin and forwards Cavani and Suarez.

In particular, Godin was the best centre-back in world football in 2011 and 2012, while Edinson Cavani and Luis Suarez were a force to be reckoned with with more than 70 goals in all competitions throughout the 2012-2013 season.

Coupled with the assistance of veteran Diego Forlan, the two young and promising forwards will receive more assistance to break the Chinese team's goal.

In addition, in the warm-up match before the 2012 London Olympics, the combination of Cavani and Suarez, who were overage players at the time, both broke through the goal of the Chinese Olympic team, and the defense of the Chinese Olympic team at that time had Feng Xiaoting and Wang Xiaolei.

This shows how terrifying the forward combination of Cavani and Suarez is.

In the match between China and Uruguay, both sides naturally presented the strongest lineups, but surprisingly, Uruguay is different from other teams against the Chinese team, they did not choose a relatively conservative defensive counterattack tactic.

Instead, it was a four-three-three formation with a strong attacking orientation, with Cavani, Suarez and Diego Forlan up front.

Countless people who looked at the starting lineup given by Uruguay gave a high thumbs up and praised Uruguay for being bloody!

Knowing that the attack group of the Chinese team was very terrifying, he did not choose a relatively safe counterattack, and he would rather die standing than live on his knees.

In the words of Sky TV commentator Martin Taylor: "Uruguay's courage is commendable, and it is much better than the hosts Brazil, Italy and Mexico that China have encountered in this Confederations Cup, and I believe this game will be a wonderful battle of the heart." ”

And the next game is indeed as Martin Taylor predicted, the two sides of the game played very actively under the continuous high cheers in the stands, holding high the banner of attack, and did not compress the living space of the opposing offensive players at all, and the fans saw an open attack that came and went.

This style of play is extremely exciting and enjoyable for neutral fans, but for fans on both sides of the game, every second is terrifying, and even the heart hangs in the throat all the time, and I don't know which second will jump out because it is too exciting......

Of course, people with this mentality are basically Uruguayan fans.

After all, in terms of strength, the Chinese team is stronger, and if Uruguay wants to win, it must get God's mercy, otherwise there is no way to win.

However, what surprised them was ...... God was really on their side, as Cavani beat Feng Xiaoting in a goalmouth scramble to head the ball into the goal of club team-mate Wang Xiaolei.
