Chapter 447: Don't You Even Dare to Think About It?
If it is said that the Chinese team will eliminate the German team before this World Youth Championships, it will definitely become a big joke. Even the Chinese fans themselves don't believe it – even though they don't know anything about the German youth team, they just hear the name "Germany" and think it's amazing.
How could the Chinese team eliminate Germany?
Even the World Junior Championships can't be!
But after playing three group games, no one was surprised when the Chinese team really eliminated the German youth team.
Especially the Chinese fans, who were cheering after the Chinese team eliminated Germany, did not feel "this is impossible" at all.
Because everyone has fully realized the strength of this Chinese team through these three group games.
and their impression of the Chinese team is completely two different concepts.
It's normal for this team to be able to knock out Germany, and it's not worth making a fuss.
In the other quarter-final match played on the same day and at the same time as the Chinese team, the Italian youth team defeated the American youth team 3-1 and also qualified for the quarterfinals.
Later, Japan, another representative of Asian football, made their debut in the round of 16, but they lost 1-0 to Morocco. Missed the quarterfinals.
Syria were also eliminated from the tournament after losing 1-0 to Brazil in the other match.
As a result, only China is the only Asian seedling in the quarterfinals.
At the same time, they are also tasked with defending the dignity of Asian football.
But in fact, the players of the Chinese team did not have this idea!
What is the dignity of Asian football? What does it have to do with us?
We only care about our own dignity.
China can't take care of its own affairs, and it still represents Asia......
On the afternoon of the second day, Nigeria defeated Ukraine 1-0.
In the other match, Argentina eliminated Colombia with a score of 2:1 after 90 minutes of fierce battle.
Messi was still excellent in this game.
He, along with Argentina, quickly found his form after an initial slump in form.
FIFA's official website praised Argentina after the match for playing "the level that the favourites should be". It can be seen that they are very optimistic and appreciative of Argentina.
The main thing is that there are a lot of outstanding talented teenagers in this Argentine team.
Among them, Messi is especially representative.
In the last two quarter-finals, Spain defeated Turkey 3-0 and the Netherlands beat Chile 3-0.
The final list of the top eight was thus decided.
Italy, China, Morocco, Brazil, Nigeria, Argentina, the Netherlands and Spain reached the quarterfinals.
In the quarterfinals, the opponent of the Chinese team was ...... Brazil!

"I didn't expect you to meet Brazil." Outside the training ground of the Chinese team, Marcos Costa, a reporter for the Brazilian newspaper Reims, shook his head and lamented fate.
"I didn't expect that, Marcos. It's so much fun. Is there anyone on this team that I know well? Rongguang asked.
"There really is one. Your teammate in São Paulo's youth team, Rico. ”
"Hey, it's him?"
Glory was a little surprised.
Rico, of course, remembers a very fast black striker. He remembers that when he first joined the youth team of São Paulo, Rico was already a player in Brazil's under-17 national team.
Now, three years later, it's not surprising that he's a member of Brazil's under-20 team.
But......
There are Rico's words, for what is not Lucas.
Glory asked the question in his heart.
Marcos Costa shook his head: "Lucas's style of play is not very popular with the coach, so not only the national youth team, but in fact he has never been selected for any Brazilian national team. ”
"That's a shame." Rongguang said. "I'd like to be able to play him in a fight."
"Actually, I think it's a shame too. However, Lucas may only be able to play as a substitute when he comes, and he is incompatible with the style of this Brazilian team. ”
Glory nodded: "I've heard of it." ”
After the conversation, Rong Guang asked Marcos Costa: "Marcos, let me ask a question." If I eliminated Brazil, you wouldn't resent me, would you? ”
Marcos Costa was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "If you eliminate Brazil, it's God's choice." It's God who doesn't want us to go any further. How could I resent God's arrangement? But if you're eliminated, don't refuse me when I come to interview you! ”
Glory stretched out his hand and shook it with Marcos Costa: "A word is a deal!" ”
※※※
When Rongguang said goodbye to Marcos Costa and returned to the team, everyone was envious that he was able to talk to foreign journalists for so long.
At the same time, I was curious.
"Glory, who is that?" Gao Lin leaned in and asked.
"Marcos, the journalist I met when I played in São Paulo. He was the first to give me an exclusive interview. Rong Guang explained.
"Brazilian journalists? Are you here to spy on the military? ”
"No, I asked the Brazilian team if there were any people I knew that didn't ......"
"Yes, Rongguang played in Brazil before, so there must be someone you know in this Brazilian youth team, right?"
"There's only one." It's a shame that Glory thinks of Lucas.
Rongguang has been with him for the longest time, and naturally knows Lucas's strength, he is indeed very powerful.
It was a pity for Lucas not to be selected for the Brazilian team, but Brazil was also a loss.
If this Brazilian team had Lucas, he might have been worried, but now that he doesn't have ...... Then there's nothing to care about.
"It's just a substitute." Rongguang briefly introduced Ruike.
Everyone is also very concerned about the opponents they will face in the quarter-finals.
"Is the Brazilian team strong?"
They thought to themselves that Rong Guang played football in Brazil for two years, so they should know a little bit about it, right?
However, Rongguang shrugged his shoulders: "I don't know what to do." ”
"Huh?" Everyone was surprised.
"Uh...... Glory spread his hands, "I never care about the opponent in the next fight. ”
Yes, he never cares about the opponent in the next match, but he still cares about the "opponent......
A group of people were stunned, and it took a long time to come back to their senses.
"What a honor! That's self-confidence! ”
"Glory is right! We should also have the spirit that no matter who the next opponent is, just play our own football! ”
"It's like, what is Brazil? The same won them!! ”
After the initial stunned, everyone had an epiphany.
Only Dong Zhuofang scolded in a low voice in the corner: "A group of idiots......"
※※※
"Our opponent in the quarter-finals is China!"
Within the Brazilian team, the quarter-final opponents are also being discussed.
"It's China......"
Raphael Sobis said this, and turned his gaze to Rico, who was sitting in the corner.
The others followed suit and looked at Rico.
"Rico, Rong and you are teammates, right?"
Sorbis asked.
Rico nodded, "Yes." ”
"I'm curious if he really didn't know how to play at all when he came to Sao Paulo?"
Everyone looked at Riko, expecting Rico to answer.
"Yes, nothing, he doesn't even understand the rules of football. When Lux taught him to juggle the ball, he simply got his hands on it......"
Rico tells you a rough story about his glory in the Sao Paulo youth team.
A group of people were dumbfounded.
"This ...... It's incredible. I watched him play at the World Junior Championships and I couldn't believe he didn't play three years ago......" said Sorbis, his mouth wide open in surprise.
"That's our St. Paul's legend!" Like Rico, another defender from São Paulo, Ed Carlos, also chimed in. "It is said that Rong dared to challenge Kaka openly on the first day of entering the first team!"
"Yes, I've heard of that, too!" The team's full-back Rafael nodded hurriedly.
"Everyone laughed at him...... It must be crazy to say that a rookie dares to challenge Kaka! What ...... the result?"
The crowd suddenly fell silent.
The result?
As a result, people have really become people who can be compared to Kaka!
If it weren't for Kaka helping AC Milan win the Champions League this season, otherwise the limelight would have been overpowered. Glory is now the top scorer in the Bundesliga, the top scorer in the UEFA Champions League, in addition to two league titles.
And what about Kaka? Before winning the Champions League, there was only one Serie A title for two seasons in Europe.
"This man...... It's horrible! There was silence for a while, and someone said.
Ricky, who was suddenly silent in the crowd, stood up: "What's wrong with you guys?" He asked.
attracted everyone's strange eyes.
"What's wrong, Rico?"
"Although Rong is very powerful, why are you so silent when you talk about him? Are you afraid of him? Rico asked.
'But he's really good, he's scored six goals now and he's the top scorer so far. And didn't you see his game? As long as he plays, whether it is two or three people, it is difficult to guard against him, he and we are not at the same level at all! I think he should go to the Confederations Cup instead of being tired of going to the World Junior Championships...... Why didn't he go to the Confederations Cup? Sorbis asked.
"Because the Chinese team didn't participate in the Confederations Cup...... someone replied casually.
Rico looked at Sorbis and said seriously, "You're right, Raphael. He's great, very powerful. But so what? We are Brazil! Are we worse than him? Well, even if we're worse than him......" Rico spread his hands. "But so what? When Chu Rong first came to the team, he was a layman who didn't know anything, but he dared to take Kaka as a target. Are we noobs who don't know anything? Is there a big gap between him and Kaka at that time? What can be successful in Rongweilu? Why can't we defeat him? ”
Rico's series of "what to do" silenced his teammates in the Brazilian national youth team again.
As players of the Brazilian national youth team, they should be very proud.
Because in Brazil, a country rich in football talent, if you want to enter the national youth team, the competition is very fierce.
To be able to stand out among hundreds of millions of people and become an international player representing Brazil must be the best.
Shouldn't Brazil's under-20 players be proud of the fact that only 21 players under the age of 20 have been selected?
Brazilian football is at the top of its time, and they are the best in Brazil!
But why should they not be proud at all when it comes to glory?
Because they're afraid?
After a long time, the team's substitute goalkeeper, Bruno, also from Sao Paulo, stood up to support Rico: "Rico is right, I know very well what Rong was like in the youth team at the beginning. I can say that I also watched how he became the way he is now. The media said he trained hard and he was very talented. But to be honest, I thought about it in private later, and I think the root cause is because Rong dares to take risks, he dares to think about things that we don't even dare to think about, and then put them into action. So that's the strongest side of him......"
Fabio Santos, the team's defender, also from Sao Paulo, also raised his hand: "I agree with Bruno and Rico. When Chu Rong said that he wanted to be compared to Kaka, we laughed at him, thinking that he was too idiotic, how could anyone be so arrogant and ignorant to such an extent? But...... Later, every improvement of Rong slapped us in the face, proving that we are idiots! ”
Rico asked everyone rhetorically: "Rong is very strong, but we are not weak either, right?" If we really want to beat him, at least we have to start trying to beat him! Why are we here if we can't even think about it? Wouldn't it be better to give up the position to someone who dares to think? ”
Rico thought of his friend Lucas, who was not selected for this year's Brazilian youth team and missed the World Youth Championships. At this time, he should be looking for beautiful women to talk to on the beach, right?
But the substitute who was not as good as him in the youth team of São Paulo is now São Paulo's main scorer. Become more powerful than yourself.
Why did he have such a change?
Rico thought of what he had said to himself that winter.
"Do you want to be stronger, Rico?"
"Who doesn't want to be stronger?"
"How much do you want?"
"Uh...... I really want to think about it......"
"Can you want to be stronger like you want to breathe?"
That's from that moment, right?
How much do we want to beat Glory?
How much do you want to win this World Junior Championship?
Do you think like you want to breathe?

PS.,Sorry.,There were some Kavin in the afternoon.,My mind was thinking about the next plot.,So I forgot about this chapter update......
After eating, I remembered when I saw a private message from a reader on Sina Weibo......
Hurry up and send it.
In addition, because I guessed correctly yesterday, I didn't add more today.
Today, let's continue to guess, Argentina vs Nigeria at zero o'clock, I think although Argentina did not play very well this year, they are really lucky. Nigeria lacked any impressive performances and were boring to win against Bosnia and Herzegovina, so the team was actually weak. Argentina beating Nigeria shouldn't be a problem.
I'm bullish on Argentina to beat Nigeria by two goals.
