712. If you lose, you don't lose, but if you win, you earn blood
After finishing the warm-up, Chu Ge returned to the locker room.
After a short period of adjustment, it was soon time for the tournament to officially begin.
……
"Hey! Clear! ”
As soon as Chu Ge walked into the players' tunnel, someone immediately greeted him.
That's the Swiss players.
Seeing Chu Ge appear, they were all a little excited, just like fans seeing idols. However, the players were still much more restrained than ordinary fans, they just came over to chat with Chu Ge, excitedly expressing their appreciation for Chu Ge, and there was no excessive behavior.
For example, up and down their hands.
Chu Ge didn't have much to say, so he chatted with them.
Several players of the Swiss team, Chu Ge is no stranger.
For example, Shaqiri, Jemayili, etc., Chu Ge and them have all had the experience of fighting.
"When you get on the field in a while, you must be merciful." Chu Ge was joking with Behrami.
Behrami is the captain of the Swiss national team, and his style is fierce and tenacious, especially the player who dares to put his feet on his feet and belongs to the meat grinder type.
The average technical player, when he encounters him, there are few who are not frightened.
Chu Ge just gave him a little eye drop in advance, and he didn't expect the opponent to really let go of the water.
Really.
After hearing Chu Ge's words, Behrami immediately put on a harmless smile, "The conscience of heaven and earth, I have an elegant style of football, and I have always been a gentleman on the football field. ”
Chu Ge shook his head helplessly.
……
The game soon began.
Zinedine Zidane stood on the sidelines, observing the game.
It was exactly what he had imagined before the game.
The game lasted for more than ten minutes, and Switzerland was always pressing Huaxia.
All the players retreated across the board, and even Chu Ge had to stay in his own half to assist his teammates in defense, consuming a lot of physical strength in defense.
The only few counterattacks that Huaxia had were always cut off by the opponent's strong defense before half time.
The captain of the Swiss team, Behrami, was particularly impressive.
In almost every defense, Behrami charged on the front line.
He runs aggressively, defends well and is even more ferocious on his feet.
The game only lasted ten minutes, and Chu Ge was brought down three times by Behrami.
Every time he tackled, Zidane pinched a cold sweat for Chu Ge.
He came to the sidelines three times and complained to the fourth official, all because Behrami's defensive action against Chu Ge was a little big. Zidane wants to put pressure on the referee in this way to protect Chu Ge and avoid Chu Ge from being injured.
But.
Little success.
Behrami is an old fritter.
Although he defends heavily, he doesn't easily foul him, so the referee doesn't interfere with him.
Football is a game full of physical confrontations. The referee will not prevent a physical confrontation within the scope of the rules.
……
Looking at the passivity of the scene, Gao Hongbo shook his head.
He recalled a pre-match conversation with Zinedine Zidane.
For today's game, Zidane had a pre-match prediction.
Zidane predicts a loss today.
Fans may not understand.
Opponents like Sweden and Germany, China can win, but against Switzerland, China will lose? Is Switzerland stronger than Sweden and Germany?
Gao Hongbo also had some incomprehension.
But Zidane explained it thoroughly.
To put it bluntly, the strength of the Huaxia team is still relatively weak.
Chu Ge raised the ceiling of this team, and Zidane tried his best to stabilize and raise the team's lower limit to a certain extent, but none of this can fundamentally change the overall strength of a team.
The victory against Sweden was because the Swedes didn't take China seriously at all. When playing against China, Sweden thought more about the upcoming match against Germany.
They suffer from arrogance and ignorance of China.
The situation in Germany is very similar to that in Sweden.
They are even more arrogant than Sweden.
Not only did the Germans not take Huaxia seriously, they even openly rotated the lineup and took the initiative to save strength for the upcoming knockout round.
The situation was that Mexico had won both of their games and the third game was against Sweden, who had lost both of their previous games and had already been eliminated early.
Germany predicts that Mexico has a strong chance of winning.
No matter how bad it is, Mexico can draw with Sweden.
As a result, Germany's chances of finishing first in this group are slim.
The second place in the group will face the first of the adjacent group, that is, there is a high probability of meeting Brazil.
Compared with Brazil, an opponent of Huaxia's level is naturally unwelcome.
Loew's most important thing is how to solve Huaxia at the lowest cost, and then use the best form to face the biggest title rival of the German team in this cup, five-star Brazil.
And then...... There is no then.
Loew takes his perfect plan and returns home with his toy car. By the way, thousands of German fans who came from afar were left homeless. And, for countless gambling dogs tailored to create a rooftop train.
These two victories in China were in the right place at the right time, and all kinds of conditions were in place, which created a miracle.
Such a miracle is undoubtedly irreproducible.
There are two fools in a cup competition, and they have all encountered each other, this is already the smoke of the ancestral tomb, and you can't ask for more.
China's loss to Mexico is the best example.
In the game that Mexico won, China didn't have any chances in the whole game.
Even, the goal scored by Chu Ge, Zidane didn't think it was a good opportunity. That was completely a reflection of Chu Ge's personal ability, plus luck. There is no possibility of replication.
Mexico gives full respect to Chinese football.
They gave it their all.
As a result, Huaxia lost the game without any suspense.
That's football.
This is the difference in strength.
The same.
If the opponent in the group stage may be unfamiliar with it, due to the schedule, it will despise Huaxia and give Huaxia a chance to enter the knockout stage, and a game will be won or lost, and that kind of stupid and cute opponent will be difficult to find.
Especially Switzerland.
Switzerland is different from Germany.
They have no chance of winning the title.
To a certain extent, Switzerland, like China, is a team that plays one game and counts one game, winning a game and losing a game without losing.
In the match with China, Switzerland will not be able to relax.
can use 100% of the state, and they are even willing to fight to 120%.
They will certainly have full respect for Huaxia.
In the face of such an opponent, Huaxia will expose the shortcomings of its own lack of strength, just like Mexico.
This is also the reason why Zidane thought from the beginning that this game must be lost.
"Instead of thinking about the result, it's better to enjoy the World Cup," Zidane told Gao.
……
The process of the game further confirmed Zidane's judgment.
Switzerland's continuous siege has repeatedly threatened the Chinese goal.
Finally.
In the 37th minute of the game, the Chinese defenders made a mistake in a hurry. They leaked in defence and left Shaqiri free.
Shaqiri receives a second pass from a teammate.
He calmly adjusted in the penalty area, flicked and shot, dodged the defender's flying block, and shot with a powerful and heavy shot, sending the football into the Huaxia goal.
1:0。
Switzerland takes the lead.
Followed by.
Five minutes later, Switzerland took a corner kick and players from both teams crowded into the box to grab the spot. In the scramble, the Chinese defenders grabbed the landing point and pushed the football out of the penalty area.
However, the football did not clear the siege far and fell in front of the big penalty area.
Zhemayili stood in a good position and shot angrily at the ball, and the football once again blasted away the Chinese goal.
2:0。
Switzerland lead by two goals.
……
Seeing such a score, Gao Hongbo couldn't help but glance at Zidane again.
He had to admit that Zidane's vision was really poisonous.
Switzerland leveled their mentality and regarded Huaxia as a team at the same level as them, but as Zidane expected before the game, it was difficult for Huaxia to run football under their feet, it was difficult to organize an effective offensive, and it was always a passive defense.
The score is the best reflection of the scene.
Although every goal conceded seems to have some accident, and it seems that a back-handed man can be found, in fact, according to this scene in the first half, it is only a matter of time before the goal is conceded.
Zidane did not blame his teammates either.
He just asked the players to stabilize their mentality, not to be impatient or impatient, that's all.
Zinedine Zidane knows that the players have done their best.
……
The first half of the game quickly came to an end.
However.
Chu Ge hasn't given up yet.
This was the moment he was waiting for.
At this stage of the game, the players' physical fitness will decline to varying degrees, and their attention to the game is not as focused as when they are full of energy.
Especially since it's already two goals ahead.
This is perhaps the time when Swiss players are most likely to be slackened defensively.
Chu Ge's disguise of his physical fitness also encountered a bottleneck.
Several passes from his teammates, he didn't chase them with all his might.
Of course, this is also due to the poor quality of the team-mate's passes.
Chu Ge estimated that it would be difficult for him to receive the ball, so he simply pretended to pant and accelerated, and then couldn't catch up with the football, so as to confuse the opponent.
At the end of the first half.
The Swiss players who were keeping an eye on Chu Ge really started to manage their fitness.
Whether it was Djemayili or Behrami, the running distance began to decline. And neither of them noticed that Chu Ge began to approach the defense area where Zaka was located, intentionally or unintentionally.
When the defensive attention dropped, the Swiss defenders looked back and saw that there was always a teammate next to Chu Ge, and they were subconsciously relieved. Djemayili thought that the player would be Behrami, and Behrami would have thought it was Jemayili.
This is what Chu Ge wants to achieve.
46 minutes.
The countdown to stoppage time in the first half began.
The referee began to put the whistle in his mouth.
The fourth official on the sidelines has already hinted that there will be two minutes of stoppage time in the first half of this game.
There was one minute left and the first half was over.
That's when it happened.
Switzerland kicked the ball into the stands with a long-range shot that didn't go far from the bounds.
Zeng Cheng takes a goal kick.
Under the pressure of the Swiss players, the football passed to Zheng Zhi's feet with some difficulty.
Behrami didn't come back.
He took forward pressure to defend and pounced directly at Zheng Zhi.
Under the high pressure of Behrami, Zheng Zhi did not dare to slack off, he hurriedly played the ball, passed the football to the side, and handed it to Hao Junmin.
Behrami switched the defensive target, and he rushed towards Hao Junmin again.
With one defense and two, Behrami is so confident.
Hao Junmin was also a little anxious when he saw Behrami approaching so quickly.
For a while, he couldn't find a suitable line to get out of the ball.
You can only passively choose to protect the football.
And in this way, this last minute of the game will also be consumed.
Just as Hao Junmin was about to turn around Bengbu, Zheng Zhi's shout suddenly came to his ears.
"Quick! Bigfoot! Right! ”
Hao Junmin didn't think much about it, and in line with his trust in Zheng Zhi, he immediately made a long pass and kicked the football high along the right sideline to the Swiss half.
……
Chu Ge was there.
He wasn't there.
However, when Behrami rushed towards Hao Junmin, Chu Ge suddenly realized that the opportunity had come.
He waved his hand and aligned the Swiss backline and motioned for his team-mate to pass the ball to the right.
Zheng Zhi saw Chu Ge's gesture and quickly gave Hao Junmin a hint.
Hao Junmin followed Zheng Zhi's reminder and passed the football out.
The ball went over the midfield and fell behind the Swiss defence.
Rush!
Hasten!
The moment Hao Junmin passed the ball, Chu Ge immediately activated.
The explosive power of the SSS level allowed him to shake off Xhaka almost instantly.
The king of the ball shook for a moment.
He didn't expect that at this stage of the competition, Chu Ge could still run as fast as a monkey.
By the time he reacted and reached out to pull Chu Ge, he was already one and a half feet behind Chu Ge, and he couldn't pull Chu Ge at all.
Moreover, as Chu Ge further accelerated, the distance between Zaka and Chu Ge was obviously getting farther and farther away.
In desperation, Xhaka had no choice but to give up the idea of following Chu Ge and honestly went straight to his own forbidden area. As long as he can get back to the vicinity of the forbidden area before Chu Ge, he still has a little chance to interfere with Chu Ge.
Charge!
Chu Ge unleashed his physical energy without reservation.
Footsteps like the wind.
Hao Junmin's pass was a little hurried, and the pass was a little bigger. However, in terms of footwork, Hao Junmin's own skills are still relatively solid. Even if it was a hurried pass, he controlled the flight line of the football within the stadium and did not let the ball fly out of bounds.
Chu Ge ran all the way, and finally caught up with football.
Spike.
Turn around.
Chu Ge made a simple move, not only comfortably controlled the football, but also quickly began to change direction without delaying at all.
Chu Ge took the ball and went straight to the Swiss penalty area.
He first met Swiss left-back, R. Rodriguez.
He's a very good defender.
It's just that I'm a little older, and my reaction is a little slower.
A flash, a flash.
Chu Ge made a feint to force the bottom down, and then instantly pulled the ball and turned around, leaving R Luo behind.
"Marseille Roundabout!"
"It's another Marseille roundabout! Chu Ge's signature moves! ”
The scene was full of exclamations.
The commentators also shouted excitedly.
That's right.
Chu Ge's move to pass R Luo is exactly the Marseille maneuver.
Zidane squinted and smiled.
The strokes of these long legs are easy and freehand, just like when he played football back then, it was simply carved out of a mold.
Except that the hairstyle is not like.
The others are another Zidane entirely!
Zidane looked at the past affectionately, and what he saw was completely the shadow of himself when he was twenty-five or six.
……
After getting past Ronaldo, Xhaka also got back in place.
He rushed towards Chu Ge head-on, trying to entangle Chu Ge and delay time.
In front of Xhaka, Behrami and Djemayli are desperately chasing back. As long as Zaka drags Chu Ge and waits for his teammates to return to the defense, they can stop Chu Ge and end Huaxia's last attack.
Chu Ge knew very well that time was very tight for him.
Lateral acceleration!
In the face of Xhaka's defense, Chu Ge was very decisive, and he kicked the football away.
Zaka immediately turned around and moved with Chu Ge.
But at the moment he turned around.
Chu Ge, football, goal, between the three, there is a narrow passage!
Hasten!
Chu Ge quickly approached the football.
He didn't look at the goal, he just got his feet.
Forced Goal!
100 million appreciation points are cleared instantly.
Call!
There was a thunderclap at St. Peter's Stadium.
In the midst of the thunder, Chu Ge fell to the ground.
Football.
Turned into a bolt of lightning.
Over Xhaka's outstretched right foot,
Passing the outstretched arm of the Swiss goalkeeper,
Crossing the goal line,
Drill into the top left corner of the goal.
Goal, scored!
“GOOOAAAAA——“
St. Petersburg was jubilant.
Chu Ge lay on the turf, watching the football drilled into the net.
It was his sixth goal of the tournament.
