Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Second Round Begins
In December, the temperature in Honduras is around 25 degrees, which is warmer than in cold Beijing.
After the Chinese team came to Honduras, they have had two days of closed training, and they also need to reverse jet lag.
It's a critical juncture and Lippi can't afford to let any of the players go out for interviews.
Even when the Football Association wanted to send officials over, Lippi politely refused.
Anyway, the two sides have already said that Lippi will be in charge of the national team.
In the past two days, the most uncomfortable thing about jet lag was that Yi Le stayed up all day and went to bed at night, which reversed the jet lag.
But it took a day to recover.
The state of the Chinese team is inevitably up and down, but what is laughable is that the state of others is sluggish, and Wu Lei actually looks vigorous and has changed his previous fatigue.
For this reason, Zheng Zhi also gave Wu Lei the nickname 'Night Owl'!
......
On the training ground, quite a few people were yawning.
It's a lack of sleep, and from the first day they stay at the hotel, Honduran fans have come to harass them more than once.
There was a lot of noise all night, which caused them to sleep poorly.
For this reason, Lippi also protested with the relevant authorities, but in the end, the other party said that this was an autonomous act of the fans, and they could not restrict it.
"Yawn~~~~~~~" Feng Xiaoting was sleepy-eyed and complained; "These people roar all night, like ghosts!"
Zhang Linfan on the side also smiled bitterly: "Who called this their home field!" ”
Feng Xiaoting rolled his eyes and said, "Do whatever it takes to win?" ”
"It's called unscrupulous, every year in the World Cup, there are fans on both sides who will fight, and I heard that this is also the case in Europe." Zhang Linfan said.
Feng Xiaoting glanced at Yi Le, who was in high spirits, and said; "Then Xiaole is immune?"
"I'm immune to fart!"
Zheng Zhi walked over and gave a small object to the two of them; "Oh, take it."
The two picked it up and looked at it, and said, "This is... Earplug? ”
Zheng Zhi nodded and said: "Physical noise, it's really not good, you can listen to songs and sleep, as long as it doesn't affect the state, you can do whatever you want!" ”
"Where did this come from?"
"Coaching staff distribution."
"What about Xiaole?"
"You think he's a rookie like you? People in Europe have been choked by those fans, and they have already had a plan to deal with it. ”
Feng Xiaoting took out the earbuds and asked; "Does this thing work?"
Zheng Zhi shrugged and said; "You try!"
Feng Xiaoting immediately tried it, stuffed the earbuds in, and found that the whole world was clean.
"Ouch hey! Awesome! ”
At this moment, there was a rapid sound and a very strong sound of breaking the air.
"Lao Feng, get out of the way!"
Feng Xiaoting was unconscious at all, he still smiled and said, "This thing is so good, you can't hear anything!" ”
Bang!!
Feng Xiaoting: It's cool in the dry!
"Who's going to kick the ball?"
Everyone: "........."
"Bullying Lao Tzu can't hear it, right?"
Everyone: "........."
"Have the ability to stand up!"
Crowd: ".........."
"!!"
......
Yi Le and Wu Lei sat together, and Yi Le sorted out the shin guards.
Wu Lei looked a little uneasy, he hesitated for a moment, and said; "Xiaole, you say, can we qualify?"
"Huh?" Yi Le looked up blankly.
"I said, can we make it!"
"Yes!" Yile cut the railway.
"Why are you so sure?"
Yi Le smiled: "Now, we can only trust ourselves and our teammates, if even we don't have confidence, the fans will be even more desperate!" And, we've got a home goal and we're dominant! ”
"And what if it's leveled?"
"Then it's pulling it back!"
"You didn't think about losing?"
"Why should I think about that?" Yi Le got up and patted his butt and smiled; "Rest assured, we will win!"
Wu Lei looked at Yi Le in a daze, and for some reason, he felt a little comforted in his heart.
That's right, we'll win!
Little by little, time passed.
December 13 is a crucial day for China and Honduras.
This day will be a key match for them to enter the World Cup.
......
At 3 p.m., the entrance to the Tegucigalpa Stadium has begun.
Chinese fans occupy the entire South Stand, at least about 10,000 people.
Among them are domestic fans, as well as Chinese compatriots who have traveled from the United States.
They are all here to cheer for the Chinese team.
They converge here to form a red force!
The Chinese fans' support during military training resounded throughout the stadium, and despite the outnumbered outnumber, their loud slogans could still be heard clearly through the shouts of the Honduran fans.
Under the camera, in addition to fans, you can also see many domestic stars.
For example, Zhang Han, who hid in the corner and watched the game quietly.
Lu Han, who was painted with the Chinese flag on his cheek and shouted like a fanatical fan.
Eason Chan who stood on the beating platform and played the drum himself.
Li Keqin, who is shaking wildly with the flag, etc...
At this moment, they let go of their glamorous identities and completely integrated into the identity of 'Chinese fans'.
They are one with this group and cheer for Chinese football together.
Under the performance of these fanatical Chinese fans, it is clear that Honduras is at home, but it seems to be occupied by Chinese fans, with 10,000 people pressing tens of thousands of people roaring.
Seeing this scene, Duan Xuan said excitedly: "Everyone is cheering for us, we have no reason to lose!" Come on! China!! ”
In the locker room, the players of the Chinese team also saw this scene on TV.
Wu Lei was dumbfounded and said, "Whose home is this?" ”
Zheng Zhi also showed excitement and shouted: "The fans are so powerful, we can't pull across!" Win the game! ”
Everyone looked excited: "Win the game!" ”
......
At 5 p.m., the game officially began.
Players from both sides walk out of the tunnel of players.
The starting line-up appeared, just like in the previous game.
Not even a change in players.
Both sides were defensive counter-attacks, but compared to Honduras, the Chinese team was able to meet the game more easily.
After all, they have a home goal and a draw will ensure they qualify.
The Swiss referee from FIFA pressed his headphones and listened for a moment.
Until the countdown to the start of the game came from the headphones...
Ten!
Nine!
Eight!
...
Three!
Two!
One!
The referee put the whistle in his mouth, and the next second a sharp whistle sounded.
Beep!!!
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ——
The audience boiled,
This World Cup play-off, the race for the last ticket to the 2018 World Cup begins!
"It's game on! It's game on! This battle of focus finally began with a whistle from the referee! ”
"This match is a huge game for us, and the winner of both teams will get the remaining half of the World Cup tickets!"
"We will never give up this opportunity, I believe that under the watchful eyes of the whole country, the Chinese boys will play a good game!"
"As Yile said, let's go to Russia together!! ——”
