Chapter 315: Joe Hart Is About to Be Crowned King
The window was open, and the night wind blew in!
But the morning in June was not cold.
Living room.
It was already past 5 a.m.
The long night had dissipated, and the distant sky had already revealed a fish belly white.
Sun Bo sat on the sofa in big shorts and a loose vest and let out a long breath. He held back the surging blood in his heart, raised his hand to pick up the newly opened can of Blue Sword on the coffee table in front of him, and gulped it all down his stomach!
"Heh--"
Great!
"... The game is over! 4:2, the England team achieved a miracle, they entered the 2008 European semi-finals... The game process was ups and downs... It was really incredible. Li Tongfan's midfield adjustment once again played an immediate effect. It seems that even the World Cup champion cannot shake his undefeated myth..."
On the snow-white wall opposite the sofa in the living room, the family's newly bought 56-inch ultra-thin plasma digital high-definition TV was hung on it, and the voice of CCTV5 commentator Duan Xuan came from the speakers...
Another reversal!
A crucial reversal!
His eyes were a little sore from staying up late, but his brain was not sleepy at all. Sun Bo lay on the sofa with his head up and closed his eyes...
Although this thrilling game had consumed a lot of Sun Bo's brainpower and energy in the past 90 minutes, he couldn't help but replay in his mind again the storm that England set off in the second half after the substitution at the distant Happel Stadium in Vienna 45 minutes ago-
In the 47th minute of the second half, England, which was 0:2 behind, suddenly exerted its strength and took advantage of the Italian team's frontcourt set-piece opportunity to launch a quick counterattack. Rooney assisted Michael Owen to score a goal!
Thinking of this, Sun Bo's mouth corners involuntarily drew an arc!
What a wonderful and timely goal it was! To be honest, as an out-and-out Owen fan, it was the first time Sun Bo saw Owen shoot the ball into the goal in this way!
Arrogant!
Domineering!
But it was very gratifying and boosted morale!
Owen scored a goal with a domineering style that no one else could do better than him, breaking the goal guarded by the world's number one goalkeeper, which obviously gave England great encouragement...
The score at that time was 1:2!
The England team suddenly grabbed a life-saving straw when they were about to fall into the abyss...
...
Then, Sun Bo almost thought of the second goal as if it was a conditioned reflex -
The 54th minute of the game.
It was also a domineering shot.
David Beckham took a free kick 40 meters away from the Italian goal, and Newcastle central defender Steven Taylor, who has become famous in the Premier League this season, beat Panucci and headed the ball into the goal from the back of the small penalty area...
In an instant, the defense of the world champions collapsed again! !
2:2!
Draw! !
Sun Bo remembered that he rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and then he screamed excitedly at the top of his lungs...
This passionate scream woke up his wife who was sleeping soundly in the bedroom, so a pink flip-flop hit him on the back of the head...
On the TV screen, the distant Happel Stadium had long become a white ocean of joy, and the voice of the commentator Duan Xuan was almost broken. There were even some foreign commentators who were faintly heard on TV...
At that moment, Sun Bo had an illusion that even the earth was shaking with excitement because of England's goal!
And once this ball went in, England didn't have to worry!
...
In the living room.
Although he was just lying on the sofa and replaying the goal in his mind, Sun Bo couldn't help laughing again, and then he began to recall the third goal!
In the 85th minute of the game, the extra time was about to begin. The Italian team might have been thinking about defeating England through a penalty shootout, because everyone knew that the Three Lions were a dish that could be easily defeated by anyone in terms of penalties...
Who knew that the Azzurri would lose the ball again!
What made the Azzurri even more angry was that it was an own goal!
When the captain of the Three Lions, David Beckham, sent a corner kick from the right side, the main central defender of the Italian team, Chiellini, somehow headed the ball into his own goal under the interference of John Terry!
The whole world was stunned!
At the Happel Stadium, even the English fans who were desperately looking forward to the team's reversal were stunned for three or four seconds at that time, and Sun Bo, who was watching in front of the TV, "poofed" and sprayed the beer he had just drunk into his mouth!
3:2!
One step to heaven, one step to hell!
Donadoni's team fell from heaven to hell in an instant!
…
After leading 3:2, Sun Bo, who had been nervously watching the game in front of the TV, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Because there were less than 7 minutes left in the game plus injury time, as long as he kept this score, Li Tongfan would definitely be able to enter the top 4 as he wished.
Defense is easier to shake than scoring!
The broadcast camera gave Donadoni and Crazy Li close-ups many times.
Unlike the calmness in the first half, Donadoni at that time was completely like a sheep being chased by a big bad wolf. He stood on the sidelines and jumped up and down, with despair in his eyes...
On the TV screen.
The Italian team launched a final struggle like the reflection of a seriously injured and dying patient, but... England's counterattack in the last minute of the game completely destroyed the last glimmer of hope in the Apennine Peninsula!
Ashley Young took advantage of the Azzurri's Achilles' heel of pressing into the void behind and made a long-distance run to bring the game to an end. This scene is so similar to Del Piero's second goal in overtime in the 2006 World Cup...
Is it a causal cycle?
4:2!
On the TV screen, the figure standing in front of the England team's command seat was drowned in the cheering crowd!
…
Lying on his back on the sofa, after recalling the four exciting goals, Sun Bo rubbed his cheeks that were a little stiff from staying up late, then took out his phone to check the time...
Well, it was 6:06 in the morning, nearly three hours before going to work, and there was still time to catch up on a good sleep, but Sun Bo didn't want to do that.
Get up and come to the study.
Turn on the computer, open the browser and flip to the Li Tongfan special forum that has been acquired by Tencent a long time ago - we are all big fans.
Enter the password and enter the forum page.
There are already many "fans" with the same passion in the forum who have spoken, including screenshots of the game, screenshots of Li Tongfan, screenshots of goals, Buffon's lonely back...
All the classic scenes that happened in this game are recorded here without any suspense!
After browsing through it roughly, Sun Bo quickly entered the administrator interface and began to sort out the new posts that appeared in the forum like a blowout!
Every time there is a game directed by Li Tongfan, this forum always becomes popular. During the European Cup, "We Are All Big Rice" set a record of 5 million people online at the same time. There are not enough administrators and moderators, and it has become the center of Tencent's middle managers. Sun Bo couldn't help but get involved personally.
And today, the forum actually exceeded 5 million online records at 10:00 in the morning...
And this number is still growing as the red sun gradually rises on the horizon!
…
"After the Turks' iron heel, Great Britain achieved its second comeback! 》
"Another reversal!" This is a European Cup that is full of reversals..."
The last game of the quarter-finals came to an end, and the entire European football world launched a new round of public opinion bombardment. The most eye-catching gimmick was naturally the word "reversal". In addition to the Stars and Moon Legion, Turkey, there was another reversal. The king is born!
Crazy Lee, the man represented by these three words, had even greater appeal and influence in Great Britain in June than the great Queen Elizabeth.
Just like when the England team fell behind 0:2 in the game, when "Madman's Song" sounded at Vienna's Happel Stadium, a commentator from a certain country accidentally said, "If Madman Lee can reverse this situation and lead the team to 4 Strong, then he will become the god of the entire England..."
It is no exaggeration to say that if the quarter-final match that just ended had been played in England, Li Tongbum would have taken over the scepter and crown from the hands of the fanatical fans!
One day later.
The dust settled in the game, the Italian team got on the plane back home, while the England team stayed in the "Music Capital" Vienna.
Because, four days later they will face their semi-final opponent Spain.
In the group stage, the two teams have already played against each other once, so they know the basics. Although the Three Lions swept their opponents 3:0 at that time, it does not mean that they will win the next game for sure, because now It looks like the Spanish team has a lot of potential!
However, two days before the end of the game between the Three Lions and the Azzurri, the main focus of the European media was on the interpretation of the past——
Joe Hart!
"Daily Mail": "...the Three Lions goalkeeper is born, and England will no longer have to worry about the goalkeeper position in the next twenty years..."
The Sun: “…Crazy Lee unearths Blue Moon’s nearly buried treasure!”
"Kicker": "Judging from the several free kicks saved by this young goalkeeper during the game, he has an incredible ability to predict..."
"L'Equipe": "In a word: Joe Hart is a natural goalkeeper..."
"Rochdale Post": "What is worthy of pride is that the national team's goalkeeper Joe Hart played in our small place half a season ago..."
Obviously, through direct dialogue with the world's number one goalkeeper Buffon, the England goalkeeper who was still hanging out with the British Championship team a year ago has undoubtedly become the most dazzling new star of this European Cup.
Because, the European Cup has come to an end, when the Czech army in white clothes bid farewell to the European Cup sadly because of goalkeeper Petr Cech's mistake, and when the world's number one goalkeeper Buffon lost everything in the confrontation with this 20-year-old little guy. Four bombs returned to Apennines...
Among the remaining goalkeepers, Lehmann of the German team is old, Rustu of Turkey has long lost his courage, and the only opponent Joe Hart faces now is Casillas——
A man who has been guarding the Spanish goals of the Galacticos Real Madrid and the Matadors like a god!
Take a man called Saint Kasi!
There is no doubt that as long as the England team can defeat the Spanish team that is determined to take revenge in the next semi-finals, then Joe Hart can make a blockbuster and become the European champion among the young goalkeepers!
