Wang Taoxin took a sip of beer and said with great interest: "Zero to zero, the first half has just begun, and you came at the right time." ”

After speaking, Wang Taoxin opened another bottle of beer, handed it to Lin Weidong, and then asked, "Weidong, have you gambled this time?"

Lin Weidong took the beer, raised his head and took a sip, then threw a cigarette to Wang Taoxin, lit a cigarette himself, and said, "I didn't buy it, you bought it?"

Wang Taoxin smiled and nodded: "I bought it, I bought it for 500 yuan." ”

Lin Weidong frowned and said, "Why do you buy so much?"

Wang Taoxin said angrily and funny: "Is 500 yuan too much? You bought Brazil to win the championship yourself, and you bought 100,000 yuan, and you are embarrassed to say me." ”

"Besides, I bought the ball mainly to support our Huaguo team, even if I lose, it's not a big deal, it's just a few hundred yuan. ”

In fact, what Wang Taoxin didn't know was that Lin Weidong did not spend 100,000 yuan to buy Brazil to win the championship, but spent a full 800,000 yuan to bet on Brazil to win the championship.

Lin Weidong asked rhetorically: "Tao Xin, do you think our Huaguo team can win?"

Wang Taoxin said confidently: "Of course you can win, don't underestimate our Huaguo team, in fact, our Huaguo team is very strong, and the top ten matches have already proved their strength." ”

Lin Weidong also had to admit that the strong performance of the Chinese team in the top ten matches did make everyone full of expectations for the national football team.

At the same time, in various talk shows, fans, players, ball critics, singers, movie stars, and broom stars are discussing the strategic ambition of "winning Costa Rica, drawing with Turkey, and losing Brazil".

Even a few objective and calm voices will be considered a kind of "self-indulgence". Grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige.

At the beginning of the first half, the national football team did not let the opponent take advantage of it too much.

In the 26th minute, Sun Jihai was replaced by Milu because of a left leg injury, and the Huaguo team lost a midfielder general, Wang Taoxin scolded "slot".

In the 35th minute, in the face of the opponent's attack, Li Weifeng cleared the ball with two consecutive headers in the penalty area, and Wang Taoxin also yelled twice in a row "good ball".

Seeing this, Lin Weidong couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I feel like I'm going to lose, our Huaguo team is too conservative, blindly relying on speed, and only implementing defensive counterattack tactics." ”

Wang Taoxin said disapprerovingly: "Weidong, you don't understand, the first half is a warm-up, and the second half is the time for our Huaguo team to perform." ”

It's just that what Wang Taoxin didn't expect was that in the 61st and 65th minutes of the second half, the national football team suddenly encountered the "black four minutes".

The national football team, which was two goals behind, was powerless to return to the sky, and the Chinese fans at the scene and the people in China were extremely disappointed.

In the 86th minute, the national football team, which was behind by two goals, launched a final counterattack, Wu Chengying took a free kick and passed a long pass to the penalty area, Li Weifeng headed the ball in the penalty area, and the ball was held by the goalkeeper.

In stoppage time, Costa Rica attacked, Gomez almost faced an empty shot and Li Weifeng blocked the ball at the near post.

Without his clearance, the national football team may have conceded goals again.

Looking back on Li Weifeng's wonderful moments on the court, he really worked hard, and he was eager to contribute his best strength at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.

This is also the mentality of the all-Chinese national team, eager to make their debut in the World Cup and hand over a satisfactory answer in front of fans across the country, but their strength is really limited, so they can only swallow the bitter fruit of defeat.

For Wang Taoxin, losing 500 yuan is still second, and what hurts him the most is that the Huaguo team was beaten 2-0, but there was no room to fight back.

This made Wang Taoxin feel disappointed, and also made him angry, shouting about the national football garbage, a group of waste......

In fact, they've done their best and they're doing a great job.

In this match with Costa Rica, the national football team had 3 shots on target from 6 shots, Costa Rica had 6 shots on target from 12 shots, the national football team had 51% possession, and 4 more than Costa Rica had 6 corner kicks.

Facing the national football team that lost the first game, compared to Wang Taoxin's impatience, Lin Weidong was much calmer, just smiled and sighed wryly, and didn't say anything more.

Wang Taoxin looked at Lin Weidong, who was light and breezy, and asked angrily: "Weidong, this group of wastes kicked so badly, aren't you angry?"

Lin Weidong smiled and shook his head: "Don't be angry, what's there to be angry about." ”

Wang Taoxin said indignantly: "This is the World Cup, and the faces of our 1.2 billion people in China have been lost by them." ”

Lin Weidong said with deep sympathy: "Yes, I can't figure it out, why can't we find more than 10 people who can play football with a population of 1.2 billion in China?"

"I think it is likely to be caused by the national conditions and system, our Chinese football is not selected in more than a billion people, but in tens of thousands of people, and foreign football choices are in the millions, our China is not short of talents, what is lacking is the soil for cultivating talents!"

After listening to Lin Weidong's words, Wang Taoxin also had a whim, and asked with great interest: "Weidong, you said, let our country go to the prison to get 20 death row prisoners in their 20s, and train them systematically for four years." ”

"When it's time for the next World Cup, let them play, tell them that they can be released if they get a position, and if they don't have a place, they will die immediately, do you think they can play better than the national football team?"

Lin Weidong smiled and shook his head: "I don't know, this assumption is not bad, I can't answer it." ”

In short, whether Lin Weidong wants to or not, a scene in history is repeated again, and the Chinese team lost 0-2 and started the World Cup journey with a loss.

A few days later, in the second game of the group stage, the match between China and Brazil, the "Samba Army" taught the Chinese a good lesson.

Although the score was 4-0, the Huaguo team also had hope of scoring, but unfortunately Zhao Junzhe's curling shot hit the post and unfortunately bounced out.

As for the final game of the group stage, Huaguo defeated Turkey 0-3, and was eliminated after losing all three games.

Like in his previous life, the butterfly effect that Lin Weidong was worried about did not let the Chinese team go further, nor did it change the outcome of the Chinese team, which also increased his confidence in the Brazilian team to win the championship a lot.

In Lin Weidong's view, the Chinese team has been eliminated, and now the only thing he cares about is whether Brazil can break out of the encirclement in the next knockout round and win the highest honor - Hercules Cup!

Of course, the reason why Lin Weidong supports Brazil is definitely not because he likes Ronaldo, but because he spent a full 800,000 yuan to buy Brazil to win the championship.

And Ronaldo, and the Brazilian team did not let Lin Weidong, in Lin Weidong's expectations, they passed all the way and reached the final.

June 30, 7:30 p.m.

The World Cup final was played at the Nissan World Cup Stadium in Yokohama, Japan, with 69,029 spectators pouring into the stadium to watch the match.

And Lin Weidong and Wang Taoxin also sat in front of the TV and watched this peak showdown.

Although Wang Taoxin did not buy Brazil to win the championship, his mood was as excited and apprehensive as Lin Weidong, as well as deep confusion and doubt.

Wang Taoxin really couldn't figure out why Lin Weidong, who usually never watched football games, was so confident that he dared to spend 100,000 yuan on the Brazilian team.

Thinking of this, Wang Taoxin looked at Lin Weidong with eyes like an alien, and asked in disbelief: "Weidong, how do you know that Brazil can reach the final? Can you see the future?"

Lin Weidong said with a smile: "What do you think, I went to the capital, listened to those bigwigs chatting, heard them say that the World Cup has an insider, and that the peripheral bookmakers are optimistic about Brazil, so I asked you to help me press 100,000 Brazil." ”

Wang Taoxin looked at Lin Weidong suspiciously: "Is it really fake? Could it be that the World Cup is also controlled by the bookmaker?

Lin Weidong said angrily: "How is it impossible, think about it yourself, how did Goryeo get into the top four?"

Regarding the black whistle of Goryeo, even if Lin Weidong doesn't say it, Wang Taoxin knows it, it should be said that people all over the world know it.

Wang Taoxin pondered for a while, and also felt that Lin Weidong's analysis was very reasonable, because in this World Cup, there are really too many upset games, you can't believe it.
