Chapter Eighty-Nine: Sensation

This year's World Cup final is still played between Italy and Brazil as it has historically, but the whole process of the World Cup has changed a lot. www.biquge.info The scores of many group stage games have changed to varying degrees, such as Saudi Arabia, which defeated Belgium 1:0, was finally forced to draw 1:1, and South Korea, which had drawn Spain 2:2, but unexpectedly lost 1:2. Then there were all kinds of changes in the knockout rounds, first Saudi Arabia played the quarterfinals instead of Belgium and Germany, then Sweden, who was supposed to finish third in this World Cup, was eliminated 2:3 in the match against Belgium, and then Romania, which was supposed to miss a key penalty and unexpectedly stopped in the quarterfinals, finally defeated Belgium to reach the semi-finals, and so on.

Fortunately, Chen Lin finally resisted the temptation, and did not use the club's already not abundant funds to gamble on this World Cup, firstly, the last Olympic Games gambling process scared him a lot, and secondly, the Italian sports law has clear restrictions on the gambling of insiders, although many people do not take it seriously, but when facing the scene, this little handle may become the sword of Damocles hanging above his head, after all, after the big business, the transfer of large sums of money is much more conspicuous than before, and Prato has more people's attention than before, It's almost impossible to win a large amount of money without even realizing it.

But because of this, Chen Lin did not fall into this World Cup pit that has changed greatly. Little by little, the world is moving in a different direction from the original, and it is Chen Lin, an unknown little man who pulls this crowbar, but the inertia of history is strong after all, Brazil, the strongest spear of this World Cup, and Italy, the strongest shield of this World Cup, finally exchanged blanks and stood in front of the penalty line of fate.

This is the first time in the history of the World Cup that the winner will be decided by penalty shootout!

The first Italian national team captain Baresi kicked the penalty away, but the Brazilian Santos's penalty was also saved by Pagliuca, the "best goalkeeper to save the penalty", and the next players on both sides, Albertini and Evani, Blanco and Romario all unceremoniously sent the ball into the goal - the score is now 2:2!

However, the fourth player on the two sides to play, the psychological quality is obviously not at the same level, Massaro stood in front of the penalty spot, his legs and stomach seemed to tremble, and the Brazilians sent the new captain of the national team in this World Cup, Dunga, who always has a big heart, the result is self-evident, Massaro missed a penalty, and Dunga scored a key goal for Brazil.

The burden of a thousand pounds was handed over to Robert like fate. On Baggio's shoulder, Baggio walked to the penalty spot, kissed the ball gently, carefully placed the football, stood up, and slowly walked back a few steps. He lowered his head as if thinking about something, his charming ponytail swaying in the wind......

History plays out in front of Chen Lin like a silent movie, and if it weren't for this mid-air goal, what would Baggio be like? Without the tragic color on his body, would Baggio still be the heartbreaking and intoxicating prince of green melancholy? It's just that there are no ifs in this world......

The picture of Baggiona standing silently and standing for a long time has flowed into the long river of history.

Brazilians have become the biggest winners of this World Cup, not only surpassing Italy and Germany to become the country with the most World Cup titles in the world, Dunga, Jurkingho, Santos, and Romario were also selected for the World Cup best team at the same time, of which Romario also won the Golden Ball Award in this World Cup.

Prato, on the other hand, became a small winner with Brazil's victory, but the reason is simple, there was only one player in the entire Prato team last season who participated in this World Cup, and that was Dunga. Perhaps before the World Cup, Dunga's name was only spread among fans in South America and Serie A, but as the image of him lifting the Hercules Cup was spread to more than 100 countries around the world by the developed media in the United States, the captain of the champion Brazil has become one of the superstars on the planet. Even the Prato team he played for was searched out by people, and gradually became known to people all over the world.

However, the next series of news released by Prato really shook the whole world, first Prato announced the signing of former Italian international, Torino main goalkeeper Giovanni. Galli then announced that Leonardo Nascimondo de Arayo, the main left midfielder of the Brazilian team in this World Cup, will join Prato next season, and then Prato announced that it has officially reached an agreement with Fiorentina FC, and former German international and midfielder Effenberg will transfer to Prato next season. Three bombs in succession dizzy people.

However, as if those three bombs were not enough to make a splash, Prato announced a week later that the best player in Argentine history, the legendary Diego Armando Maradona, would be part of Prato next season.

As soon as this news came out, the whole world felt like an earthquake measuring 9 on the Richter scale, and everyone, including the members of the Prato Club, seemed to be dizzy. Calls were constantly being made to the Prato club's offices to verify the authenticity of the news. The phone rang throughout the club from morning to night, as if it had never stopped for a moment.

And the city of Prato is like boiling water in a pot, and the restlessness has not stopped since the news was announced. The people who talked about the news everywhere in the streets and alleys, the faces of the residents of the entire city of Prato were excited, that is the core and main players of the four world championship teams, the 1982 World Cup champion Italy, the 1986 World Cup champion Argentina, the 1990 World Cup champion Germany, the 1994 World Cup champion Brazil team, all belong to the unknown Prato in Italy.

Even more excited are Chinese fans, although Yang Chen and Fan Zhiyi have left Prato this season, aren't there still Ma Minyu, Li Tie, and Li Liuyu? And Chinese fans who have been paying attention to Prato have long known that two more Jianlibao players Sun Chenghai and Li Weifeng have been transferred to the first team this season, and Prato's Chinese power is still not lacking. The thought that Chinese players can compete with so many world-class stars every day makes Chinese fans extremely excited, especially the Jianlibao players who they see as their hope for the future can grow up in such an environment, and they have a sense of excitement to hope that their son will become a dragon.

The senior management of BJ Guoan and GD Hongyuan Club almost laughed crookedly, with the joining of these gods, they are happy even if they double the invitation fee, when will Chinese football have this status to invite these gods. Not to mention that there is still money to be made, they all have to go up the pole to make up the money. Other clubs in China are also surging undercurrents, and they have asked for a door to see if they can contact Prato's China office, it doesn't matter if Prato's trip to China can't catch up this year, don't forget them next year.

Of course, not everyone is optimistic about Prato's introduction of Maradona and others. Several influential Italian media outlets have said that Prato will become a "concentration camp for villains", and the good atmosphere in the team will become infighting because of these highly individual players, and Prato's steady upward trend will be interrupted, and it will never return.
