In terms of confrontation, Brazil, Colombia, France, and Germany are in the upper half. The host Brazil team is lucky. Their opponent is Colombia, which is the weakest among the top eight.

....

World Cup news fills all the pages of sports news.

The favorite team to win the championship naturally occupies more news topics.

The tense World Cup event has entered a few days of repairs.

The players can take a breath,

The same goes for the fans.

But the week passed quickly.

Just before the start of the quarter-finals, the various head coaches took their players to a pre-match press conference.

"Gao Bo is a great coach, I admire him very much." Van Gaal said blankly when facing the reporter's camera.

No one can tell if his words are sincere.

In this way, the pre-match business bragging, the Dutch coach has seen a lot, and he will come when he opens his mouth.

And Gao Bo also did not say anything at the press conference to make reporters happy.

All in all.

Gao Bo is not the rookie coach he used to be, and it is time to show his teeth and claws at the press conference to influence the other party's emotions.

to this stage.

The competition is about how well each team can match its own team, and it has already played on the spot.

"Mr van Gaal's Netherlands team is undoubtedly very strong and we will not take it lightly."

"Mr. Gao Bo, do you think England can pass the Dutch team?" A Dutch reporter stood up and asked.

"Of course." Gao Bo raised his eyebrows and said.

Then, he raised his hand and looked at his wrist, "It's time, Mr. Reporter."

Saying that, Gao Bo stood up.

"We aspire to be on top of the world!!"

Gao Bo said.

Beside him, Rooney, who followed him to the press conference, was excited when he heard this.

He can't wait to play right now and destroy the city for the team.

.....

"We aspire to be on top of the world!"

Van Gaal saw reports in the media that the Dutch coach, who was not very temperamental, pouted. ,

"This Chinese is still as arrogant as ever."

At this time, he was sitting on the bus of the new water source stadium in El Salvador, the hotel where the Dutch team stayed.

For this game, Van Gaal can be described as the most fully prepared.

From the basic strength point of view, the Netherlands team is stronger than the England team.

They have a world-class striker duo like Robben and Van Persie.

In comparison, England's striker strength will be inferior.

Van Gaal has carefully studied England's game.

England, led by Gao Bo, played very well in this World Cup.

Their tactics are changeable and very flexible.

Not easy to deal with!

Van Gaal understands this.

However, Van Gaal has confidence in his team.

Compared to Gao Bo who took over the team a month before the World Cup, the team led by Van Gaal has been running in for two years.

He is familiar with each of his players, and the tactical play has been formed.

England's tactics are changeable and flexible. In Van Gaal's view, it is also a reflection of Gao Bo's inability to make England accept a stable tactical system in such a short period of time.

Therefore, Gao Bo can only respond to every game through on-the-spot strain.

And these few games, the England team did not fully reflect the absolute control of the scene.

Even Costa Rica had plenty of chances against England.

Of course, the game against Greece was really beautiful.

But Van Gaal knew that players had their ups and downs.

The Greek team is not as strong as England, and it is not surprising that England played a beautiful game!

Moreover, in Van Gaal's view, England's previous games have not been really tested.

Italy and Uruguay are not in the state.

Greece and Costa Rica are not too strong either.

So... England's real combat effectiveness is still unknown.

But on the Dutch side.

They beat Spain 5-1 in the group stage and beat Mexico in the quarter-finals.

The gold content is higher than in England.

So, Van Gaal is full of confidence in this game!

He believes that the Netherlands, with Sneijder, Robben and Van Persie, will defeat England and advance to the semi-finals.

Yesterday's two games are over.

Brazil beat Colombia to reach the semifinals.

Germany beat France 1-0 and reached the semi-finals.

Now, the other two seats in the semi-finals will be produced today.

If the Netherlands reaches the semifinals, the opponent will be the winner between Argentina and Belgium.

Van Gaal writes and draws in his small notebook, and he does not know what he is recording.

About ten minutes later, the Dutch team's bus entered El Salvador's new water source stadium.

Among the cheers of the Dutch orange.

The Dutch team's bus slowly drove into the stadium parking lot.

......

After two minutes.

The bus from England also arrived.

Gao Bo got off the bus first.

He stood in front of the door, watching his players come out one by one.

High five!

this game.

So much for England.

And... the World Cup has been too long for the Three Lions.

at this time.

A drone flies through the air.

The camera overlooks the field.

Countless fans gathered at the entrance of the stadium.

At the entrance of the four gates in the south, south and northwest, there are fans lining up to enter the stadium.

The pitch fills up quickly!

"Today the stadium will be full!! The Netherlands and England, two strong teams from Europe, will fight for a place in the semi-finals!!!"

A beautiful blonde anchor, standing in front of the bustling crowd, said in front of the camera.

England fans!

Dutch fans!

White!

Orange!

The difference is clear!
