June 14, Luzhniki Stadium, Russia.

The long-awaited opening ceremony of the 2018 World Cup in Russia began.

Beijing time, 10:30 p.m.

Moscow time, 17:30 minutes.

At five o'clock in the evening, the sky in Moscow did not have the slightest hint of darkness.

The sun hung high, as hot as an afternoon.

This is a phenomenon peculiar to Russia, and due to its proximity to the Arctic Circle, there is often a daylight phenomenon.

......

Luzhniki Stadium.

At this time, it was already crowded, and more than 100,000 spectators sat down to watch the opening ceremony of the World Cup.

In the press gallery, reporters from all over the country took pictures.

There is also a lively scene on the broadcast channels of various countries, and once every four years, the battle for the highest level of honor in world football begins.

In China, a large number of people are paying attention to this football festival.

Even people who don't usually watch the game can join in the fun.

Bars, cinemas and other venues are carrying out 'World Cup promotions', units leave work early, and the boss treats guests to watch the game.

The whole of China is immersed in a frenzied atmosphere, which can be called the attention of the whole country.

At 22:30, CCTV Channel 5 officially broadcast the World Cup.

The first is the appearance of the FIFA logo, below which is the panel of the World Cup in Russia.

The picture appears, which is a long shot from a bird's eye view.

From Lenin Boulevard to the Luzhniki Stadium.

The road is crowded with people, bustling with activity, and you can feel the frenzy through the TV.

The camera pans to the space station, where an astronaut in a spacesuit releases a black and white soccer ball in space.

The World Cup is not just a football feast, but also a good opportunity to show the power of the country, and Russia is showing the world their space capabilities.

"CCTV, CCTV, good evening, audience friends!"

"The much-anticipated opening ceremony of the World Cup has officially begun, following the four years ago, in the World Cup in Brazil, the German chariot won the Hercules Cup, and the football carnival we have been waiting for is once again presented in front of everyone."

He Wei and Liu Jiayuan, as well as two heavyweight guests, Yang Chen and Xu Yang partnered to comment.

The four of them sat on the commentary podium and talked eloquently.

"Welcome two guests, let's say hello to everyone!" He Wei said with a smile.

"Hello everyone, I'm Yang Chen!"

"I'm Xu Yang!"

He Wei continued: "Thanks to the two of you for coming, with their help, we believe that we can give the audience a more comprehensive and professional explanation. ”

"First of all, let's talk about the first round of the group stage!"

"The first round of the group stage will last until the 19th, and our national team will play on the 16th, which is the fifth, against Denmark, what do you two think about this game?"

Yang Chen turned his head to look at Xu Yang and made a gesture of please.

Xu Yang said indiscriminately: "As Chinese, we naturally hope that our national team can win, but we cannot blindly support, we must first understand the advantages and disadvantages of the enemy and ourselves." ”

"Denmark are not a particularly strong team in European football, but the Danish fairy tale is always playing out, they have reached the World Cup finals three times, and the quality of this team may seem average, but the length of time can surprise us."

Yang Chen naturally took over and said: "Yes, you have to be careful about their midfield brains to play Denmark, Eriksen is a player with good organizational skills, we have to block his actions." ”

Speaking of this, Yang Chen smiled, and changed his words: "Of course, we don't have to worry too much, after all, our midfield is also very strong, Yile was in Tottenham, Eriksen was his substitute, in terms of midfield control, Yile can be said to be the complete Eriksen." ”

Liu Jiayuan said at this time: "So what are the two guesses about the direction of this game?" Or rather, who has a better chance of winning? ”

Hearing this, the two guests glanced at each other and shook their heads; "It's unpredictable."

Xu Yang said: "As Lippi said, the World Cup is not a league, the run-in time between players is too short, if you want to play well, personal strength is important, but more important is adaptability!" ”

"China or Denmark, which side adapts better to the rhythm of the World Cup, which side has a greater advantage!"

"Mr. Xu, you were also an international player, playing as a midfielder, you played the same position as Yi Le, what would you do if you faced an opponent like Eriksen?"

Xu Yang grinned bitterly; "If it were me, it would definitely be in the half, after all, the gap between us is too big, but if it is Yile, it will be different, Yile's style of play determines the way the Chinese team plays, I think, in this game, the Chinese team will choose to attack, relying on the suppressive force of the midfield to open the situation!"

While the commentators were chatting, the opening ceremony had come to an end.

In the camera, the famous Brazilian star, Ronaldo led a young player into the field.

Da Luo stood in the center of the stadium and played the football, representing the official start of the World Cup.

The singing fades and the camera pans to the players' tunnel.

Both sides of the opening game.

Russia, as well as Saudi Arabia, are already in place.

They played their first World Cup game, and the Russian players as hosts were full of confidence.

It's their home stadium and the first game, they have to win.

"There's a lot of pressure on the Russian players, they have to win the first game at home, and it's against Saudi Arabia, in the World Cup, Saudi Arabia is in the fourth pot, and in this echelon, there are China, South Korea, Japan, Morocco, Panama, Serbia and Nigeria."

"Their opponents are not too strong, which is good news for Russia."

"In this game, the Russian coach chose to start Samedov and Smolov, wanting to rely on their experience to get the team into game shape quickly, which is quite a risky choice, after all, these two players are not young."

"Alright, the game is about to begin!"

"Every landmark in the picture highlights this historic moment."

"This is the 88th year in the history of the World Cup, the 21st World Cup, and at this important moment, the players of both sides are led by the referee team to the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, where they will open the first match of the World Cup in Russia!"

"Six of the flag bearers in the stadium are students from China who stand out, and we occupy five sponsorship spots at different levels of sponsorship, which represents China's growing economic power."

"In this World Cup, we are no longer spectators, from the fans to the team, we are all involved."

"To repeat, the match of the Chinese team will be played on June 16, at 18 o'clock Beijing time."

Players from both sides come to their respective halves and the game is about to begin.

Seconds later, a shrill whistle resounded around the world.

This whistle marks the official start of the World Cup and the start of the world's football festival.

"It's game on! It's game on! The opening match of the 2018 World Cup in Russia will be played by the host Russia against Saudi Arabia, and they will play a fierce battle for 90 minutes to determine the winner! ”

"We believe that the two national teams will give us a good game!"
