Chapter 0098 This Dream Seems to Be a Real Dream
The 19th FIFA World Cup is in full swing in South Africa, and the European transfer market has not been greatly disturbed, even the players who are competing in the World Cup are involved. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
One of the most high-profile World Cup player deals is undoubtedly David Silva, who has joined Spain for the World Cup, who has moved to Manchester City in the Premier League for £24 million, with a contract to be signed in Manchester after the World Cup.
Tang Zheng's club, Borussia Dortmund, are also using the summer transfer window to buy players, but the players they are buying are not the kind of established stars who are famous, but young players who have performed well in the second league.
The 22-year-old Polish striker Lewandowski, who plays for Lech Poznań in the Polish league, joined Dortmund for 4.5 million euros.
Tang Zheng only paid a little attention to this transfer news, and his main task was to travel around South Africa with his parents.
Of course, it's mainly about watching the ball.
The group stage is all over, entering the knockout stage, in the live broadcast of the choice of which game to watch, the two father and son did not disagree, together decided to go to the Freedom Stadium in Bloemfontein to watch the 1/8 final between the European Chinese team and the German team.
During the watching period, Tang Zheng also interacted with domestic and foreign netizens through meager ways to talk about football.
The 1/8 finals of the World Cup between England and Germany were full, but fortunately, Tang Zheng signed Nike and Versace one after another, and his face was big enough to get three tickets.
The controversy of this battle is also worthy of the word 'focus', when England chased the score to 1-2, they forced Germany to make a mistake at the back through a high press in the front, and the football came to Lander in front of him by mistake.
Lander's vision was broad, and he saw that Neuer's position was a little forward, and he chose to shoot without stopping.
From the broadcast footage, it was very obvious that the ball hit the crossbar and bounced into the goal.
So the on-site directors switched to the goalscorer, and the commentators hysterically chanted England's equaliser.
England coach Capello excitedly hugged and celebrated with his assistants and players!
Tang's father and Ingla fans, who were in the same stand as Tang Zheng, couldn't help but chant with excitement.
However, the referee on duty was not in a good position and did not signal that the football had crossed the line as a whole, and the assistant referee did not raise the flag......
Perhaps this glaring miscalculation affected England's overall performance, and they conceded two goals in the middle of the second half in the face of Germany's quick counter-attack.
The goal was scored by Thomas Müller, who lost to Tang Zheng in the Bundesliga Newcomer of the Year award this summer.
In the end, the young German team defeated England 4-1 to advance to the quarter-finals.
Tang Zheng looked at his disappointed father and comforted: "This is also a matter of no choice, and it can be regarded as England paying off the debt for the World Cup champion that year......"
In fact, this is more like Tang Zheng's self-comfort, he has been influenced by his father since he was a child, and he has become a fan of the Chinese team in Europe, and it is a pity that he has not been able to go further in the face of the relatively immature German team.
Next, the German team, which defeated England in the 1/8 finals, defeated Argentina, the favorite in the 1/4 finals, and won the game 4:0 without blood.
In the semi-final match between Germany and Spain, Tang Zheng was there to watch the game.
Germany, who had beaten England and Argentina in quick succession, did not go any further, losing to a more sophisticated Spain in the semi-finals.
The other team to reach the final is the Netherlands, who will face Spain for the title of the 19th World Cup.
And this final also means that a new world champion will be born in the history of the World Cup, so tickets to the final can be said to be hard to find.
Fortunately, Tang Zheng booked three tickets for the finals early, otherwise it would be really difficult to buy tickets.
In Tang Zheng's words, they all decided to come to South Africa to watch the World Cup, how could they miss the World Cup final?

Before the start of the World Cup final, the media around the world overwhelmingly exaggerated this ultimate battle to welcome the new king, among which the Chinese media paid the most attention due to the domestic fan base.
As the exclusive broadcast of the World Cup in South Africa, the team sent by Yang 5 is quite large.
During the preparation for the finals between the two sides of the competition, the staff of Yang 5 were also preparing for the competition.
The Yang 5 team learned from the meager that China's No. 1 star Tang Zheng came to South Africa with his family to watch the game, and Duan Huo, the commentator who had the best relationship with Tang Zheng, naturally shouldered the heavy responsibility of sending an interview application.
It was not once or twice to cooperate with Duan Huo, and he also helped bombard the Football Association many times, resulting in CCTV being banned by the Football Association, so this small interview request naturally had to be agreed.
And the content of the interview with Yang 5 is also very simple, that is, to talk about why he chose to come to South Africa to watch the World Cup as a vacation, and what new prospects he has for his future career.
As for why he chose to come to South Africa to watch the World Cup as a way to vacation, Tang Zheng smiled shyly at the camera, and then looked at his father and mother who looked relatively nervous and said: "Watching the World Cup is my dream and my dad......
Looking forward to his career, Tang Zheng's original intention has not changed, and he is still the league champion and the Champions League, which symbolizes the highest glory in Europe.
Finally, Duan Huo asked: "The final of the World Cup in South Africa is coming soon, I don't know what kind of mood you are in now." ”
"To put it bluntly, it's complicated. Tang Zheng's handsome face seemed to have made up some kind of determination, he said: "Every professional player has a World Cup dream, and I am the same, looking at those players who are doing their best for the glory of the country, I really hope that one day I can wear the national team jersey to participate in the World Cup, but ...... To me, this dream seemed like a real dream. ”
"What if there is really a chance to represent the national team in the World Cup?" Duan Huo gave an idea.
Tang Zheng's expression was very serious, and he said very firmly: "Do your best, and then die!"
This interview from before the World Cup final is particularly touching to domestic fans.
There is an ambition, but there is nowhere to show it.
It is a great shame that the first person recognized by Chinese football has no way to be selected for the national team.
The Football Association has long fallen out with the central 5, and they have no right to interfere with Tang Zheng's interviews, anyway, the national football team is now shouted by everyone, even if it defeated the World Cup favorite France at the beginning of last month.
Even if it is 10,000 steps back, Yang 5 will not give face to the Football Association.
Obviously, Tang Zheng's current news value is much greater than that of the Football Association.

The 2010 World Cup final in South Africa was held at half past eight in the evening of the 11th local time in South Africa, that is, at half past two in the morning on the 12th Beijing time.
This time point is a reasonable time point for Chinese fans who often stay up late to watch the game, and it is not suitable for watching the game if it is later.
The location of the viewing area where Tang Zheng's family is located is okay, but the noise made by local fans in South Africa is a little unacceptable, even if they are used to it for more than half a month.
The two sides of the final, the Netherlands and Spain, played very cautiously in this situation, and the attack was mainly tentative.
After all, the victory of the game will be about the glory of the World Cup champion, and no one dares to take it lightly.
Despite this, the game did not make people feel drowsy, but rather energetic.
Because the game was quite hot, the actions of both sides did not converge.
Dutch player Frenkie de Jong kicked Xavi Alonso in the chest in the first half, and referee Webber probably gave De Jong a yellow card instead of a red card for the spectacle of the World Cup final.
It is worth mentioning that the referee Webber made controversial decisions on several occasions, which made the players on both sides of the final very dissatisfied with him.
In the regular 90 minutes, neither side achieved anything.
Of course, this has a lot to do with the Netherlands, who hold the title of uncrowned king, as if they were under some kind of curse, and three single chances were not converted into goals.
Instead, it was Andres Iniesta who took a chance at the end of the second half of extra-time to break the deadlock for Spain.
Immediately, the audience was a sensation!
The Spanish fans in red jerseys roared hysterically, venting their team to take the lead of the game.
They know that a goal in this time period is equivalent to a stunner!
Really!
It was also the only goal of the game.
Spain eventually defeated the uncrowned king of the Netherlands 1-0 in the final to become the eighth new world champion in the history of the World Cup.
All the commentators who commented on the match gave praise to Spain, calling them a victory for artistic football.
Tang Zheng agrees with this.
The pass-and-control football played by the Spanish team with Barcelona as the core team is very ornamental, but Tang Zheng doesn't like too much invalid possession of Spain and Barcelona.
Because it's very tiring to kick like that, and it's too boring to pass around.
In fact, to be honest, the Netherlands played very well, and not winning can only say that their luck is really bad.
As long as one of the three single-handedly grasps one, the Netherlands will not lose in the final, and there is even a good chance of beating Spain by a large margin.
The next day, Tang Zheng and his parents boarded a plane to Yangcheng, and then transferred to Shanghai Pudong International Airport in Yangcheng.
The end of the World Cup can be regarded as the end of the holiday for Tang Zheng.
But for those players who have finished the World Cup, their holidays have only just begun.
Especially for the teams that have reached the knockout stage, most of their players are playing in Europe, and they need to rest well after a full season and are preparing for the World Cup non-stop.
Fortunately, the 2010-2011 Europa League season generally started late, almost by the end of August.
Even players who are competing in the World Cup final will be given plenty of rest to prepare for the new season.
Of course, this has little to do with the Dortmund players, except for the striker Paraguay, who participated in the World Cup, none of the other players have been selected for the national team to participate in the World Cup.
In other words, they all need to return to the club early to prepare for the pre-season.
