973 1966-2014

Away team locker room.

In this game, England drew the dressing room of the visiting team.

Of course, as there is no colour clash between their white home kit and the Dutch orange home kit, the Three Lions will still be wearing white for this game.

At this time, assistant coach Moya was yelling, "Guys! Hurry up!! Hurry up! ”

He was urging his players to hurry up and warm up.

It's obvious.

Even the battle-hardened Moya. It's also nerves of a World Cup.

"Moya, don't be so nervous."

Gao Bo said to his assistant.

"It's the World Cup... Quarterfinals. ”

Moya took a deep breath.

"It's just the quarterfinals." Gao Bo smiled.

Moya nodded.

He admires Gao Bo very much.

The man never seemed to know what nervousness was.

He was always so confident.

Gao Bo was not in the locker room.

Instead, he stood on the sidelines and watched the players warm up.

He didn't speak.

The televised camera stayed on him several times, giving him several close-ups.

However, before the players could warm up, he went back to the dressing room.

After about three minutes, the players warmed up and returned to the dressing room.

Gao Bo looked at the players, and the first sentence made the corners of the players' mouths smile: "It's a pity that I didn't meet the Netherlands in the final..."

The players laughed.

They certainly understand why the manager says that.

Because the opponent is the uncrowned king... In other words, they have never won a World Cup final.

If this is the final, wouldn't England have to win?

A joke calmed down the slightly nervous mood of the players.

.......

"It's good, I'm very satisfied to see that everyone is in good spirits."

Gao Bo had a smile on his face.

"This game is the way for us to go further, and my request for this game is simple..."

"Victory!"

The players suddenly shouted together!

"That's right! It's victory! ”

Gao Bo laughed.

"I don't want anything but victory!"

'The Netherlands are a tough opponent and they have some key players in them, I don't need to stress their quality, I'm sure you all know it very well.

"I would say, it doesn't matter who the opponent is! No matter how powerful they are! None of them can stop us from moving forward! None of them can stop us from embracing victory! ”

Gao Bo paused slightly and looked at the players around him.

Pairs of eyes were looking at her.

"Maybe it's going to be hard, maybe, it's going to be easier than we imagined!"

"No one knows what's going to happen until it's over."

"But! I ask of you, all! From the first minute of the game, with the belief that you will win! Focus! Be fearless and don't let up until the whistle blows at the end of the game! ”

"Only those who laugh at the end are qualified to taste the most delicious fruits of victory!"

There was a pause.

Gao Bo looked at his players.

He smiled.

With a confident smile.

"Go ahead! Go and take your glory on this field, and win the highest honor in football!! Go tell them we'll keep going! Go tell them! We won't be uncrowned kings, we... It's the new king! ”

There was a roar at the scene!

New King!

As a professional footballer!

Who doesn't know what that means.

World Cup Winner!

The highest honor in world football!

An honor that every footballer has worked so hard for!

For this championship!

Countless people laughed!

Countless people wept.

Countless people are sad.

Countless people are persistent!

They hold their heads high.

Walked to the Salvadoran New Water Stadium.

.....

The other side.

Home team dressing room.

Head coach Louis van Gaal is giving the final tactical explanations and analysis.

This has been said many times ago.

So, there are some players who listen very seriously.

Some of the players' attention was on the LCD screens in the dressing room.

It was the final of the last World Cup.

Netherlands, video of the match against Spain.

It was a day that countless Dutch fans will remember.

June 3, 2010.

Four years ago.

If Robben's solo can get the scoresheet.

If there is no red card in extra time, Heitinga is sent off.

If Andres Iniesta's shot is a little bit wide.

The Dutch may have achieved what they had been longing for decades.

However.

There are no ifs and therebes for everything.

It is impossible to come back to what has passed.

Someone looked at Robben.

Really.

At this moment, Robben lowered his head slightly.

Grasp the lower edge of the stool.

Whitish white!

That was Robben's biggest demon.

Or rather... It was the most important failure in his career.

If that one-knife goes in...

Robben gritted his teeth.

This World Cup, we have to win it back!

Luo Laohan thought to himself.

The same is true for many of the Dutch players who played in the last World Cup.

This defeat is their motivation in this World Cup!

....

"Welcome to the Salvado New Water Stadium! You're tuning in to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, the third match of the quarter-finals! The two sides are England and the Netherlands! Two giants from the European continent will compete on the South American continent for a ticket to the semi-finals!! ”

"The Netherlands, the last runner-up, have maintained their excellent form in this World Cup! And their opponents, England, are also in good form! This game will be a battle of global attention! ”

While the narrator was talking.

Television footage swept over the stadium's stands.

In the center stand, there were England fans who unfurled huge banners.

First there is a portrait of Sir Bobby Charlton holding up the Hercules Cup, and then below the portrait, it reads: 1966

Bobby Charlton was England's captain that year.

In 1966, England won the World Cup on English soil.

It is also England's only World Cup title to date.

Once upon a time... Forty-eight years.

And at the other end of the banner.

It's Gerrard, the captain of the current team.

The same pattern holds the trophy aloft.

Underneath the pattern, it reads: 2014.

Two-time captain, lifting two championship trophies.

Obviously,

That's what the fans are looking forward to!

Meanwhile.

Dutch fans who saw this scene were somewhat surprised.

Although these days, many media outlets are saying that the Netherlands are better than England and that they have more experience in the knockout stages of the World Cup.

But when this pattern comes out, it can also be seen as a counterattack by England fans.

England has not been very mixed up in recent years.

However, they have won the World Cup.

Players from both sides streamed out of the tunnel from the players' tunnel.

Everyone could see the banner held aloft by England fans.

Gerrard tidied up his captain's armband.

Champion...

Veteran Gerrard.

A fire began to appear in his eyes.
