Chapter 4: World Cup (2)

380 million in 8 days!

When Wang Shoufu shouted the phrase "earn him 100 million first", Ji Qin was dismissive, but when reality really happened, it felt really dreamy.

Some people say that the World Cup without buying football is not called the World Cup, because buying football will increase the sense of participation and interest of watching football, and you can make a small profit if you win. The so-called small gambling is pleasant, and the big gambling hurts the body. If you want to make a fortune by gambling, I'm afraid it will become the next "see you on the rooftop".

Ji Qin is a special case! Or if you can travel back in time, then you can be a special case too!

There are also a lot of jokes on the Internet: "Buy the ball is the opposite, the villa is by the sea; Buy the cold and buy the unpopular, and the luxury car drives into the door; Buy a strong team, go to the rooftop to line up; Buy ball also stud, the cemetery is up to you! "Cristiano Ronaldo kicked your car away; Messi kicked you out; The German team kicked you to death! ”

Just when there were heated discussions on the Internet for the World Cup, Ji Qin was collecting funds and did not continue to bet. Even if Saudi Arabia defeats Egypt 2-1 and Spain draws 2-2 with Morocco, these games are small upsets, and the multiplier is not bad.

First, because Ji Qin really can't remember the scores of the next few games, and second, because Ji Qin is preparing for the game at ten o'clock in the evening on June 27.

This match is the biggest upset of the World Cup in Russia, there is no one! The "Taiji Tigers" South Korean team 2-0 German Chariot, the odds are as high as 16.5!

This year's World Cup in Russia is a nightmare for the German team! Defending champions Germany faced Mexico in their first group game, and although they were firmly in control of the situation, they were still scored by Mexico on a counter-attacking goal, and from this game, it was destined that Germany's World Cup journey would not be easy.

In the second game against Sweden, Germany won the game, but it was only thanks to Kroos's free-kick before the end of the game that the team was able to get three points.

And in this game against the South Korean team, I thought I could find my form from the opponent, but I didn't expect this to become their swan song for the 2018 World Cup!

Russia's Kazan Arena, South Korea and Germany play the final battle of Group F.

Both sides still have hope of advancing in this game, Germany can advance to the knockout stage by locking up the victory, while South Korea not only has to win by themselves, but also Mexico has to win by a big score to advance to the next round, so it can be said that the hope is very slim.

Both goalkeepers were excellent in the first half, failing to score on either side. At the beginning of the second half, the South Korean team took the lead, but the two sides still did not score.

In stoppage time, South Korea's corner kick opportunity, Kim Young-kwon volleyed in the box but was ruled offside. The referee confirmed the goal with VAR validation!

South Korea leads 1-0!

The South Korean team's offensive did not stop, in the 5th minute of stoppage time, Zhu Shizhong stole Neuer and handed it to Son Heung-min, Son Heung-min pushed the empty goal and scored, and the South Korean team led 2-0!

South Korea did a miracle, and although they didn't make it to the next round, they also knocked the defending champions Germany off the horse! It also made Germany the fourth defending champion to be eliminated in the group stage of the last five World Cups!

2018 is already destined to be an unforgettable year in the history of German football. This year, Germany was humiliated by the World Cup and relegated from UEFA's newly nominated UEFA Nations League!

The sequelae of the World Cup exit are intensifying, and Germany has been trying to find someone to be the "scapegoat", unfortunately, Ozil was recognized by the German Football Association as the sinner of Germany's World Cup failure because of a photo with the Turkish president, and the German Football Association "criticized" Ozil with racial discrimination. Mesut Ozil couldn't stand it and officially announced his retirement from the German national team on July 22, 2018!

"It was a heavy decision, because of the recent events, I felt racist and disrespected, and after careful consideration, I decided not to play for the German national team." – this is part of Ozil's statement on his withdrawal from the national team.

At the end of August, Loew said that Ozil's decision to withdraw from the national team in a hurry had not been consulted with him. And when Loew went to the Arsenal training base to find Ozil to try to settle peacefully, he was even turned away!

That's it, the problems of the German team on and off the pitch have been happening and fermenting!

In October, the German team suffered a 3-0 defeat to the Netherlands in the UEFA Nations League, and the German team struggled to swallow their sixth defeat of 2018!

On November 20, with Van Dijk's final strike, the Netherlands finally drew 2:2 away to Germany, surpassing France in one fell swoop and occupying the top spot in Group A of the UEFA Nations League. They will join England, Switzerland and Portugal in the final in Dublin on December 3rd!

Watching the Orange Shirts celebrate wildly at their doorstep, all the German players can feel is the icy chill and the humiliation that cannot be forgotten!

It's a bit far, back to the present.

South Korea defeated Germany 2-0, bringing Ji Qin a huge prize of up to 6.4 billion, which is 825 million euros when converted into euros! (Because there will definitely be more activities in the five major European leagues in the future, so let's convert it directly into euros!) )

What is it like to ascend to the sky in one step, Ji Qin can be regarded as having experienced it!

In the end, the top 16 of the World Cup are all released! Group A: Uruguay, Russia; Group B: Spain, Portugal; Group C: France, Denmark; Group D: Croatia, Argentina; Group E: Brazil, Switzerland; Group F: Sweden, Mexico; Group G: Belgium, England; Group H: Colombia, Japan.

The 10 European teams advanced to dominate the tournament and continue to play the role of the boss in the World Cup. South America also qualified with four teams, Asia and the Caribbean each had one team to qualify, and Japan became the only team in Asia to advance to the round of 16.

Defending champions Germany, Poland in the top 10 in the world and South American powerhouse Colombia are also the top three upsets in this World Cup.

There will definitely be dark horse teams in the underdog game, and the Russian team and the Japanese team, which are not very strong in this World Cup, and the Swedish team, which squeezed out the German team, will have enough dark horse qualities.

It is worth mentioning that although Argentina suffered consecutive upsets and ranked at the bottom of the group after the first two rounds of the group stage of the World Cup, it still managed to reach the round of 16 knockout rounds!

Although Argentina qualified from the group with the help of Croatia, the team at least ensured the prerequisites for winning first, which is the point.

Death and then life! This sentence is completely in line with Argentina's group stage situation at that time, and under the undoubtedly huge pressure to win, Argentina really did it, making domestic fans celebrate and be as excited as if they were winning the World Cup.

Ji Qin doesn't plan to continue betting in the next game, because there is no need!

In the end, the French team and the Croatian team met in the final, the French team won the Hercules Cup, and the talented new star Mbappe shined in the world!

And the core of Croatia, the captain of the national team, Modric, also broke the monopoly of Ronaldo and Messi for 10 consecutive years with his wonderful performance in the World Cup and won the Golden Ball Award!
