Chapter 607 The Deceived Man [First Update]
Game start.
[Master Tactics] Loew laid out the German team's usual tactics-4-2-3-1 formation.
The main forward Miroslav Klose, who was suspended due to a red card in the second round of the group stage, finally returned from the ban in this game and was at the front. [Prince] Podolski and Thomas Muller, a young player who has emerged from Newcastle this season, are separated on both sides.
The new core Ozil is the main attacking midfielder.
[Little Pig] Bastian Schweinsteiger and Newcastle's young midfielder Sami Khedira served as the defensive midfielder. Lahm, Friedrich, Merdesack and Boateng lined up on the back line, standing At the goal position is Schalke 04's young goalkeeper Neuer!
The competition was extremely fierce.
After ninety minutes of fierce fighting, [Chariot] the German team defeated the American team 4:1!
[K God] Miroslav Klose opened the scoring with a single goal against offside. [Prince] Podolski soon scored another victory. Young player Thomas Muller scored twice later, while the US team only relied on the center Defender Onyewu received Donovan's corner kick and headed back to win!
The outcome of the game was expected by many media and fans. However, something happened during the game that once again made the world salivate——
During the game, the U.S. team midfielder Dempsey scored a goal in the 29th minute. At that time, the ball had completely crossed the goal line, and then popped up after crossing the goal... Faced with such a scene, the main goal was The referee bizarrely ruled that the football did not go in!
Obviously, this was an obvious turning point. Such an incredible penalty directly affected the confidence of the American team and led to the subsequent defeat of the American team...
After the game, Swiss referee Busacca's penalty undoubtedly aroused controversy among the world's media and fans. This is not the first time such an obvious misjudgment has occurred - South Korea and Argentina in the group stage and South Korea and Uruguay in the knockout round. The referee on duty has made the same unbelievable misjudgment in the team's game... All of this has once again caused the credibility and authority of the World Football Federation and the South Africa World Cup Organizing Committee to be widely questioned and criticized, including tacit understanding of the game or match-fixing. It’s so loud again!
Fortunately, what made the officials shout luck was that the media’s misjudgment did not last long this time, because the game between [Blue and White] Argentina and [Hulk] Mexico is about to be held in Johannesburg Soccer City Stadium unfolds.
The end of the ninety-minute fierce battle at the Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein also marked the birth of the third shot at the quarterfinals of the 2010 South Africa World Cup!
【German Tank】German Team! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
…
…
Soon, the eyes and attention of the whole world began to focus...concentrate...concentrate...concentrate...concentrate...
The most eye-catching battle of the quarterfinals is about to begin——
South Africa local time on July 1 at 18:00.
Johannesburg football stadium stadium.
The stands, which can accommodate more than 94,700 people, were crowded and packed. A record of more than 40,000 Argentine fans appeared in the stands. They uniformly wore blue and white team uniforms, and both men, women and children had their faces painted. Thick blue and white oil paint, some strong guys, even so exaggerated that they only wore a sky blue 'three strings' all over their bodies. The entire body of the hardcover was painted all over, even the thick chest hair and The hair on my legs was painted sky blue and cloud white...
In comparison, there are fewer fans of the Mexican team.
The green camp with less than 15,000 people tried hard to cheer for the players who were warming up on the field. However, except for the more than 40,000 Argentine fans, even more neutral fans seemed to be leaning towards the Argentine team. The efforts of the Mexicans seemed a bit insignificant. And tragic!
From a bird's-eye view from the sky, the white Johannesburg Park Stadium lingers on the flat ground, like a huge white matchbox containing a green gem, exuding an alluring light and a jubilant and lively atmosphere, like The steaming volcanic fire waiting to explode dyed the sky of Johannesburg red!
…
In the stadium, in the commentary box.
The number of commentators from various countries who applied to commentate on-site once again set a new record. The staff of the park stadium had to temporarily set up some seats on the side of the southern commentator's seat to clear some places for the commentators who far exceeded the expected limit. Members provide temporary interpretation venues!
"... Players on both sides are warming up. Judging from the atmosphere in the stadium, Crazy Li's Argentina team is obviously more popular. Whenever an Argentine team player takes the ball, the cheers in the stands always surge like a tsunami. Since then, the treatment of Mexican players is much worse!”
[English traitor] Cester looked at the stadium and talked eloquently: "The Argentina team has shown their strong strength in the previous three games. Whether it is the media, fans or betting companies, basically they are not optimistic about the Mexican team... "
"Yes, the Argentine team is coming..." Partner Gary Lineker showed worry on his face: "If no accident occurs, the Argentine team is very likely to meet the English team in the next game. There is no doubt that , this is definitely an unimaginable experience and an incredible challenge for Capello and the England players!”
…
Next to the England commentary booth, closely leaning against the commentary booth of the old enemy Argentina team, [God of War] Batistuta was introducing the starting lineup of the Mexican team: "Old coach Aguirre made a very bold decision. Facing the Argentine team, which has the best attacking power among the top 32 teams in South Africa, he actually chose to attack. From the starting list we got, he still insisted on the 4-3-3 formation. The three forwards are Giovanni dos Santos, Hernandez and Botista, Toldo, Juarez and Torado, and the four defenders are Salcido, Marquez, F. Rodríguez, and the other three forwards are Giovanni dos Santos, Hernandez and Botista, Toldo, Juarez and Torado, and the four defenders are Salcido, Marquez, F. Rodríguez, and the other two are F. Rodríguez. Riggs and Osorio, the goalkeeper is Perez who is 1.73 meters tall..."
...
"Perhaps, the only thing that the Mexican team can take advantage of in this game is the psychology of the Argentine players. Crazy Lee's arbitrary behavior has led to major changes in the Argentine coaching staff. Perhaps this will cause the team's morale to fluctuate..." The commentary of the German team commentator [Golden Bomber] Klinsmann brought a little confidence to the fans of [Hulk]: "The Mexican team should do more in this regard, but, unfortunately, the old coach Aguirre does not seem to be good at psychological warfare..."
... …
The Spanish commentator’s view is similar to Klinsmann’s: “For Argentina, the only flaw is the team’s mental state. Because of the coaching dismissal incident before the game, just three hours ago, BWIN and other major sports betting companies in the world adjusted their odds of winning the championship. Argentina’s ranking dropped to the first place, replaced by England. Crazy Lee wants to prove that the team still has the undisputed ability to compete for the championship. They must show something eye-catching in this game!”
“In my opinion, the biggest highlight of this game is not the Argentine players on the field, but Crazy Lee and his [8-man coaching team] standing on the sidelines. Maradona, Kempes, and Caniggia can definitely share the camera film with the players on the sidelines!”
…
Just as the commentators were warming up before the game, the “March of the Motherland” suddenly floated over the Johannesburg Soccer City Stadium. The passionate tune and familiar melody made the noisy stadium suddenly quiet down. The blue camp was like the sea surface after a storm, calming down!
All the Argentine fans stood up from their seats, holding their chests and singing their country's national anthem.
"Players from both teams have entered the field!! The players on the field are lining up to sing the national anthem, and the first to be played is the Argentine team's national anthem "March of the Motherland"!" A commentator shouted excitedly.
The camera lens swept across the faces of each player, solemn, solemn, sacred, excited... all kinds of expressions appeared on the faces of the Argentine players one by one. Until the last note of "March of the Motherland" fell, waves of sound like a tsunami sounded on the field, and the Argentines cheered...
Then the Mexican national anthem - "National Anthem of the United Mexican States" sounded.
...
Three minutes later.
Push!!!
The referee Coulibaly blew a whistle, and the most eye-catching game in the quarter-finals finally kicked off!
As Mexican striker [Little Pea] Hernandez kicked the ball to his teammates behind him, the starting lineup of the [Blue and White Army] Argentina team, which Crazy Li had kept secret, finally unveiled the mystery at this time. Seeing the scene on the field, the expression on the face of Mexican head coach Aguirre on the sidelines was livid!
"It's 4-4-2? How could it be 4-4-2?"
Aguirre subconsciously touched his meticulously combed back white hair... After a long time, he turned his head with difficulty and looked at the 'tactical spy' Carralgado, who was sitting in the coaching seat not far away, with a pale face, and shook his head with regret in his heart!
"Carragado misled me! Misled me..."
"He actually set up a trap from the beginning, and actually used all the time before the game to practice 3-2-1-4, and now it's 4-4-2?... He... completely deceived me with the help of Carragado... Crazy Li, he actually dared to set up such a trap immediately after reorganizing the coaching staff... Could it be that... he didn't worry at all that this kind of thing would delay the real training state of his team?"
Although it was less than 30 seconds before the game started, and even now on the court, the Mexican team still firmly controlled the ball... However, Aguirre deeply understood that he had completely lost to Crazy Li in terms of arranging troops, and he also deeply understood that the price of this mistake might be heavy for the Mexican team's road to promotion!
Aguirre looked at the opponent's coaching bench in the distance, with a smirk on his face, and was once again extremely shocked by the madness of this madman that was difficult for ordinary people to understand.
…
Even more shocked and frustrated than coach Aguirre was Carralgado, who had been sitting in the coaching booth with a pale face since the whistle of the game. At this moment, he finally understood that he thought he had collected information about the Argentine team, that he had dug up enough detailed information for the Mexican team, and that he had grasped the fatal lifeline of Crazy Li…but…
But the fact is completely the opposite!!!
He finally realized that he was completely deceived by Madman Li, and what was even more hateful was that the cunning Madman Li used his eyes, mouth and hands to deceive the team's coach Aguirre!
"Damn it, I was completely used as a gun by Madman Li!"
Carralgado had an urge to rush to Aguirre and commit suicide to apologize!
He also had an urge to jump up and kill Madman Li! ——
