Section 925 Goals are given to you
On June 27, it was 7:30 p.m. local time, and June 28 at 3:30 a.m. Korean time.
It's late, and it stands to reason that it's already the dead of night.
However, everywhere in South Korea, there is a lively scene, and the streets and alleys are full of people sitting together.
That's right, these people are fans, they're all watching. Today, South Korea will face their first opponent in the knockout stage - Mexico.
The South Korean team overtook the Argentine team as a dark horse in Group B and qualified as the first in the group, which was a big upset.
In Group A, where Uruguay is located, there was also an upset, and it was even more thorough than Group B.
Normally, the host country will not be eliminated in the group stage, but this time, the South African team, as the host, did not qualify, which is already a small upset.
It is understandable that South Africa failed to qualify, but the seeded team in Group A, the former champion of the world, France, also failed to qualify, which made many people fall through the glasses.
Of course, there is a reason why the French team failed to qualify, if it were not for the infighting that affected the tacit understanding and performance of the players, with so many strong players in the team, they would not have been eliminated in the group stage.
France didn't play well, and South Africa was already lacking, which gave the other two teams in Group A, Uruguay and Mexico, to their advantage.
Before the start of the World Cup, everyone did not expect that these two teams could qualify at the same time, because after giving a qualifying place to the French team, they still have to fight with the South African team for the remaining other qualifying place, even if the strength of the South African team is slightly worse, but they have the identity of the host, so strictly speaking, the chances of Uruguay, Mexico, and South Africa are about the same, accounting for one-third of the possibilities each.
But now. The fact that the two teams were able to qualify at the same time was a surprise to the fans, and it also made the fans who supported the two teams feel extremely surprised.
Uruguay and Mexico benefited, as did the two teams in Group B.
After the group stage. In the knockout stage, the first in Group A will face the second in Group B, and conversely, the second in Group A will face the first in Group B.
In other words, South Korea will face one of the teams that qualify from Group A. Obviously, it will be easier against Mexico or Uruguay than against France.
Some people may say. Didn't the French team play well, and it should be easier against the French team, right? In fact, there is a dead knot here, if you want to face the French team, you must first be able to qualify for the French team, but if the French team qualifies, it already means that they have found their form back. After recovering from form, the French team will definitely be more serious after entering the knockout stage, and the strength will be stronger than in the group stage. Against such a French team, isn't that just to make yourself uncomfortable?
Therefore, it is better not to run into France in the knockout round. The current situation is just right, and it is in the best interests of the South Korean team and the Argentine team.
As group winners, South Korea will face Group A runners-up Mexico, while Argentina will take on Uruguay.
Previously, on the 26th, the match between Argentina and Uruguay had been played, and the final result was 2-1, and the Argentine team won with some difficulty.
Now, it's the turn of the other team from Group B. Because they overtook the Argentine team in the group stage, the South Korean team at this time also attracted more people's attention. Not only South Korean fans, but also people from many other countries are also paying close attention to this match.
==================================
"Kids, hurry up, it's time, the game is about to start." …,
In Li Jingyuan's villa. The girls of Girls' Generation also set their alarm clocks and are waiting to watch this game.
The first to get up was Jessica, the god of sleep, who was the most sleepy of all, and she had to be shouted by someone to get up almost every morning, and now she was the first to get up, which was really a bit surprising.
"Oh, I know." One by one, the girls sat up with staring eyes, and came to the living room in disheveled clothes and sat in front of the TV.
Winter is in South Africa, while South Korea is in the hottest summer. Although there is air conditioning, in order to ensure health, the girls do not turn the temperature too low, so they wear less when sleeping.
Some showed their arms, some showed their thighs, and after the nine girls got together, the living room suddenly showed a white tenderness. Fortunately, the time of this game was relatively late, and the girls did not invite the guests to watch the game together, otherwise, others would definitely not have the heart to watch the game.
"Huh~~~, Huh~~~~!" Seeing that the girls were a little confused and their expressions were not very clear, Jessica took out a moisturizing spray and sprayed it a few times on the faces of several girls who couldn't open their eyes.
"Ah~~~!!" When they were half asleep and half awake, they were suddenly sprayed, and these girls were startled and immediately shouted. Fortunately, Li Jingyuan's villa has good sound insulation, and it is also a little far from the neighbor's house, so there is no noise to others, and there are rumors of 'ghost screaming in the middle of the night'.
Although I knew that Jessica had good intentions, she was still scared in the end, and the girls had a habit of convulsions, so after being sprayed, these girls made a little fuss.
After a joking fight, everyone finally came to their senses.
"It's going to start in a while, then I'll get something to eat, old man, let's get a hand." Probably thinking that it was boring to watch the ball, Taeyeon stood up and greeted Seo Hyun and went to the kitchen together. After a while, the two of them each reported half of the watermelon and walked back.
"Huh? Why didn't you cut it? ”
"Cut something, dig it with a spoon and eat it, so that there will be an atmosphere."
It is said that watermelon is still quite expensive in South Korea, although it is not as rare as cantaloupe, but for ordinary people, it is not something that can be eaten every day.
The girls of Girls' Generation are the same, on the one hand, because of the price, even if they have made a lot of money now, but spend tens of thousands of yuan to buy a watermelon. It's still a little painful for them, and on the one hand, it's because the watermelon is too heavy, and it's troublesome to bring it back to the dormitory.
Only here is Li Jingyuan, the girls can enjoy this thing at any time. Except for what Li Jingyuan ordered his assistant to send. When the crowd gathers to watch the game, the other artists who come to the guest will bring a lot of food, and every time they can't finish eating, the girls will save a lot.
I dug a piece and stuffed it into my mouth, feeling the cool juice flowing on the tip of my tongue, and the girls couldn't help but show a pleasant expression.
"It's still more refreshing to eat like this~~!" Little Sun looks like a kitten now, but her tone is no different from that of an aunt in the countryside. Seeing her like this, the other girls couldn't help but laugh.
Watermelons are expensive, so they can't be wasted. Generally, when Koreans eat watermelon, they cut it into petals and eat it one by one, and only Li Jingyuan, this guy, will dig and eat the watermelon with a spoon according to his previous life, and over time, it also affects the girls closest to him.
You dig a piece. I dig a piece, and the girls eat it called a cheerful, sometimes to grab a piece of sweeter melon pulp. The girls will also use the spoon as a weapon and play a little scramble, and the atmosphere in the room will suddenly become lively, and the drowsiness that has not yet woken up will all disappear under this lively atmosphere. …,
After a while, the game finally began, and the girls quieted down and watched the game quietly.
Li Jingyuan still played as a goalkeeper this time. In the end, it is a knockout round, and losing one game means going home, so Xu Dingmao does not dare to be careless, even if the strength of the Mexican team is much worse than that of the Argentine team. He still didn't let Li Jingyuan serve as a striker, but put him in the position of goalkeeper for the sake of stability.
In fact, the trick of letting Li Jingyuan be the goalkeeper is really the right one. Don't look at the Mexican team's reputation as not as good as Argentina or Germany, but their strength is not bad.
Just like the peppers that are abundant in Mexico, the attacks of the Mexican players are just as violent.
Skillful fit. Authentic American team-style ground penetration play, after the start of the game, the Mexican team launched several attacks, hitting two high-quality shots.
If it weren't for Lee Kyung-won's good enough performance to save these two inevitable shots, maybe in the opening ten minutes, the South Korean team would have fallen behind 0-2.
Seeing the Mexican team shooting, the girls in front of the TV were all frightened, and then saw Li Jingyuan save the ball beautifully, and the girls broke out into a huge cheer. There were a few girls who moved bigger, especially Yun'a, who waved the spoon of digging watermelons and spilled all the watermelon juice on Seo Hyun and Jessica's faces.
"Sister Yuna~." The old man Xu Xian is a 'gas bag', so he won't protest at all, but after reminding Yun'er in a small voice, he wiped the watermelon juice off his face.
"Ah, Yun'a, be careful." Jessica was not so polite, she was happy for Li Jingyuan's performance, but she didn't expect to be dumped with watermelon juice, and the sticky feeling on her face immediately ruined her good mood, and she warned Yun'er in frustration.
"Ernie~~~, don't be angry." Yuna also knew that Jessica was not really angry, so she immediately hugged Jessica's arm and coquettishly coquettish.
"You girl, let go, I'm going to wipe my face with a tissue." Under Yun'er's coquettishness, Jessica also laughed, stretched out her white and tender fingers and poked Yun'er's forehead, and then said something to her.
"Still need a tissue? Ernie, don't bother, I'll help you~~. Yun'er pumped again, and regardless of whether Jessica wanted to or not, she stepped forward directly, stretched out her tongue and licked Jessica's face.
The watermelon juice was licked off, but it made Jessica's face saliva, and after this licking, Yun'er immediately let go of her hand and ran away, but Jessica sat on the ground and shivered subconsciously.
After reacting, Jessica's little face turned red with a 'whew'.
At this time, the other girls had already laughed, no one thought that Yun'er would come to such a moment, they thought it was funny, and when they saw Jessica's shy and helpless angry expression, they felt even more interesting.
"Ah~~!! Lin Yuna~! You crazy brx~~!! "Even if Yun'er wants to hide, the place is only so big, where can she hide. Seconds later, she was caught by Jessica.
Yuna's strength is already great. Jessica was not bad in a hurry, and the two of them had a tie for a while, and it became a mess.
"Huh? Hey, stop. Watch the game, OPPA is going to make free throws. Just as the two were laughing and laughing, Yu Li suddenly shouted.
The game was suspended. After saving Mexico's shot just now, Lee Kyung-won passed the ball to his teammate, and after a few minutes of passing and scrambling, South Korea's counterattack caused a foul by a Mexican defender and got a free kick opportunity.
The free kick was taken 32 metres from Mexico's goal. Not only is it within Li Jingyuan's range, but it is also the distance he is best at. So without asking, he immediately left his own goal and came to the back of the Mexican team, ready to take the free kick. …,
The reason why I got up in the middle of the night to watch the ball game was, after all, not to see Li Jingyuan. Now it's his turn to take a free kick, how can the girls not care.
After Yoo-ri's reminder, not only Jessica and Yuna stopped. The others also fixed their eyes on the TV screen, and they all quieted down, waiting for Li Jingyuan to take the free kick.
Thirty-two meters away. It's not far away, it's not close.
After studying the previous games of the South Korean team, the Mexican team also knew a little about the strength of Lee Kyung-won's free kicks, so even at a distance of 32 meters, they still didn't dare to be careless, and lined up a six-man wall in front of the football.
Almost all teams do it, and Mexico is no exception, and after a few small steps, the Mexican wall is only about eight yards from the penalty spot.
Li Jingyuan also saw it. Immediately protested against the referee.
At the referee's behest, Mexico's human wall took a few steps back and returned to the nine-yard distance set by the rules.
Waiting for the Mexican team's human wall to stand still, Li Jingyuan cast an inquiring look like the referee again.
Nodding, the referee blew the whistle.
Because they have just been stationed, the Mexican players who lined up the wall have not yet fully concentrated. Similarly, the Mexican goalkeeper behind the wall was similarly unfocused. So after the referee blew the whistle, Li Jingyuan seized the short time difference and took a free kick as quickly as possible.
Just relying on the strength of swinging his legs on the spot, Li Jingyuan took a curling ball. Because there was no run-up, the force and speed of this free throw was not very high.
However, the angle of the penalty was tricky, and it was a semi-sneak shot, so the goalkeeper of the Mexican team was still caught off guard, and the save was a little late, and the football still grazed his fingertips into the goal.
"Wow~~~!!!!" The girls who were guarding in front of the TV cheered loudly, hugging in twos and threes, so happy that they couldn't see it.
Lee Kyung-won and the rest of the South Korean team were also celebrating after the goal.
The first few times he scored, Li Jingyuan didn't make any special celebrations, but this time it was different, it seemed that he had already thought about it, he pushed aside several teammates who came up to congratulate, and rushed directly towards the corner kick area.
"Huh?? You see, you see, what is OPPA doing here? Seeing Li Jingyuan's movements, Xiaoyuan suddenly shouted, and then all the girls stopped celebrating and put their eyes on the TV again.
"Hey, there's a good show to watch." In the silence, Xiuying suddenly thought of something, and then showed a playful smile and said coldly.
"What's the show?" After Jessica, who was next to Xiuying, heard her words, she subconsciously asked.
"Don't ask, let's take a closer look." There was no answer, and the expression on Suying's face was very mysterious.
Just when Xiuying's words fell, Li Jingyuan finally ran to the corner flag, and then saw him lift the jersey on his body, revealing an inner suit that had been prepared for a long time.
“ForJessicaJung?”
Although they are not as proficient in English as Little T and Jessica, they can still understand these words, and after being stunned for a second, all the girls exclaimed again, and then showed envious eyes at Jessica.
Obviously, Lee Kyung-won is now going to dedicate this goal to Jessica, although he has seen similar celebrations in other games, but the girls never thought that some of them could get such a gift.
This is the World Lu World Cup, and the fans who watch the game in the whole world are going to be hundreds of millions, and Li Jingyuan is tantamount to making a confession to Jessica in front of these hundreds of millions of fans. Which woman doesn't like romance, and Li Jingyuan's behavior has been romantic to the extreme, so after the girls saw it, they envied Jessica so much.
“……。” Although Jessica didn't make a sound, she couldn't control her excitement anymore, covering her mouth with her hands, her eyes widened, and she left tears of surprise. (To be continued.)
