Chapter 605: The final round of the group stage
At 4 a.m. Beijing time on June 25, the last two matches of Group C will be held, which will be played by China vs Colombia and Ivory Coast vs Greece. Among them, the match between Ivory Coast and Greece is not too much attention except for domestic fans, and the two teams that have been confirmed to be eliminated are just fighting for face in this last match.
Between China and Colombia, it will be decided who will finish first in the group, but who is willing to compete for this first place is still a question.
The Chinese media have long supported the national team, and almost all the media agree that the Chinese team should not go all out, just keep a draw, and then go to Costa Rica in the knockout round to increase the probability of entering the quarterfinals. For this reason, An Rong did not make a clear statement, but just said that he would take every game seriously, and this one will not be an exception.
The Chinese team's bus stopped at the CuiabΓ‘ Pantanal Stadium, and the players walked off the bus 6 times, and the Chinese fans who were guarding outside couldn't hold back the boiling, like a pot of hot water, the scene was more spectacular than the previous two games, and the on-site security personnel almost couldn't control the scene.
Needless to ask, why the fans are so enthusiastic before the game starts, it is because the Chinese team has already qualified for the round of 16. It's okay for the fans to vent their excitement, but they still have to refrain from it, and if they really accidentally hurt a certain international player, it won't be good.
The national football players changed their clothes in the locker room and went to the stadium to warm up, with the Colombian players on the other side. The players of both teams are now in a relaxed mood, talking and laughing with their respective national team teammates, and everyone has a kind of joy on their faces.
Looking at the audience again, the fans of the two teams were also very happy, and there was no hostility at all. However, the cheerleaders are still building momentum for their teams in advance as always, although it is a foregone conclusion that qualifying is a foregone conclusion, it does not mean that the cheerleaders have nothing to do, as long as the team is still competing, they will not stop.
Zhang Shujie deliberately kicked a pass to Yan Tao's buttocks, Yan Tao also colored, Zhang Shujie dodged, but kicked Ma Junqiang, and Ma Junqiang kicked back.
Chen Hui looked at the press box for a while, then turned his head to Shen Hao beside him and said, "Look at the players of the national team, they are very relaxed. β
Shen Hao said: "I have seen it a long time ago. I'll tell you, when I came out today, I met Colombian fans, and they asked me in English if I was Chinese. β
"And then?"
And I said yes. β
"And then?"
"And then they took a picture with me, and a guy gave me a Rodriguez jersey, you see. As he spoke, Shen Hao revealed a little of the jersey hidden in his backpack to Chen Hui.
Chen Hui quipped, "Why don't you put it on?"
Shen Hao gave him a roll of his eyes: "Do I dare? I am now a fan of the Chinese team!"
Chen Hui smiled and said: "From this aspect, it can be seen that Colombian fans are indeed friendly. β
"Yes, the biggest reason is that they have qualified, and we have qualified, and everyone is happy, so no one can offend anyone. β
Chen Hui nodded and said, "Look at what kind of result this game will play." β
Wang Shihan, Zhou Ying, and Ye Xiaotong are still sitting in the stands like in the previous game, but today they did not communicate, but each turned their mobile phones, and from time to time they could hear laughter from one of them, causing the other two to turn their heads to look over.
It can be seen that the Chinese team has qualified, and they are also very happy.
After the players warmed up, they walked out of the court one after another and walked to the locker room. When An Rong saw the players coming in the locker room, everyone had some smiles on their faces.
After they were seated, An Rong asked, "What funny thing did you encounter when you came in just now?"
The team members looked stunned, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know why An Rong suddenly asked such a question.
As the captain, Ma Junqiang said: "An Zhi, we haven't met anything." β
"Then why do you all have an expression that wants to laugh but doesn't dare to laugh?"
The team members were stunned again, then lowered their heads, and for some reason, they all secretly laughed.
Actually, there was nothing funny about this time, but they just wanted to laugh. Sometimes, you don't have to be funny to laugh, but you can laugh when you meet happy things. Of course, the happy event here is not that a player is getting married, but that the Chinese team can participate in the knockout round.
For a Chinese professional football player, this joy is probably no less than getting married and having children.
"Alright, alright. An Rong clapped his palms and said, "I understand your feelings, and I am the same as you." However, what I want to tell you is that immediately turn all your energy to the upcoming game, I have no special requirements for you, formation, tactics, An Rong We can practice in the past few days. I just want to say one thing, it's about Rodriguez. β
The players straightened up and did not interject, An Rong said: "He is currently the top scorer in Colombia, the position is between the striker and the forward midfielder, his technique and shooting skills are exquisite, but the degree is very slow, and the physical confrontation is insufficient." Yan Tao, I'll hand him over to you, keep an eye on him, I don't want to see him play against us and still have the same dominant performance as he did against Ivory Coast and Greece. β
Yan Tao raised his head and said, "Understand, An Zhi!"
"Good. Everyone knows my situation, I don't want to be too harsh on you, the only requirement, can't lose, can you do it?"
"Yes!" the team replied in unison, very loudly.
"Very well, that's all I have to say. After speaking, he looked at the time, there was still plenty of time, and said: "There is still a lot of time, you can discuss it yourself, and you can ask any questions at any time." After dropping this sentence, An Rong stepped aside and discussed with Song Weifeng.
Tang Ling whispered to Yan Tao and Qin Tianzhu: "Hey, do you say that An Zhi is ......?"
Qin Tianzhu laughed and didn't answer, Yan Tao smiled: "Don't ask me, I don't know anything." β
Tang Ling looked at the other teammates, and they were all talking to each other, with a smile on their faces.
In the locker room of Colombia, head coach Pekerman just finished explaining the tactics: "Let's leave it at all, let's still say that, pay attention to Zhang Shujie and Li Mu, these two are the first firepower points on their attack line, followed by Chen Zihua and Xu Ziyi." In short, let's not care who we will face in the knockout round, play the game in front of us, do you know?"
"Got it. β
Pekerman nodded in satisfaction and waved lightly at the players, indicating that he would not talk about the rest of the time, and it was all at the disposal of the players.
