939 Boom!!

In the midst of the song of God Save the Queen, the players of the England team and the Englishmen in the stands sang loudly!

Gao Bo was standing in front of the coach's box, and the Englishmen in his coaching staff were also singing.

Gao Bo's face was solemn.

As a foreigner, it was certainly impossible for him to sing this song.

At this time, Gao Bo's heart was a little complicated.

Although he can't see anything from his surface, he is actually a little envious of these fans.

At the very least, their flag can appear on the field of the World Cup.

And although Gao Bo was called the only Chinese in this World Cup by the Chinese media.

But he knew that he was actually a working boy.

The English FA gave him a big contract and he took this group of players to the top.

It's just taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people.

Of course, this is also related to Gao Bo's desire to experience a personal participation in the World Cup.

After the national anthem is played, it is followed by a fixed program for each game.

The two sides shook hands with each other, and the captain came out to exchange team flags, exchange gifts, and then shake hands and pick sides.

England won the right to pick the edge but lost the tee-off.

Sometimes, tee-off rights may be more important than picking the side.

Especially for England, who were going to put pressure on Italy from the very beginning of the game.

After seeing the result, the Italian players were nothing, but Gerrard glanced at the coach's box.

In this World Cup, the captain appointed by Gao Bo is Gerrard.

For Gobo, Gerrard is a very qualified captain and he can do a good job by letting him help stabilize the dressing room.

And, this first game .... Gao Boke put the winner and loser of the first stage of the game on him!

As Gerrard looked at him, Gobo gave a thumbs up and nodded to the England captain.

Gerrard took a deep breath for today's game, his mission.... But it's huge! It can be said that most of England's attack in the first half needed to be related to him.

Although he is already experienced in a hundred battles, he is still a little nervous when facing such a scene.

....

When the players of both sides stood in their respective positions, the starting lists of both sides began to be played on the television screen.

On England's side.

The formation given by the broadcaster is 433.

Judging by England's players, it seems that this is indeed the case.

Goalkeeper is Joe Hart, with centre-back duo Maguire partnering Gary Cahill.

Left wing-back Luke Shaw, right wing-back Kieran Trippier, and the three midfielders are Milner, Jordan Henderson and Steven Gerrard.

The wingers on the left and right are Adam White and Raheem Sterling, and the centre-forward Wayne Rooney.

Such a formation and configuration seems to be in line with Gao Bo's consistent habits.

And the Italian side.

Prandelli fielded a very typical Italian formation of 4312.

The goalkeeper is still Italy's Dinghaishen needle, and the veteran Buffon.

The centre-back combination was Bonucci partnering Chiellini, and at left-back, Prandelli uncharacteristically did not use the regular left wing-back Desiglio, but used Barzagli as a cameo at left-back, and Darmian at right-back.

In midfield, the three midfielders are Marchisio, Pirlo and De Rossi.

Obviously, two bodyguards will be indispensable next to Pirlo, with Marchisio and De Rossi more responsible for defensive interceptions, while midfield maestro Andrea Pirlo will be in control of Italy's attacking tempo.

Prandelli pushed Verratti up front, using Verratti as a midfielder to feed the two strikers up front.

Cassano and Balotelli!

Prandelli chose two strikers to play together in this game!!

It can be said that such a formation, while ensuring the thickness of the midfield, is also extremely powerful on the front line.

Cassano and Balotelli are bound to put a lot of pressure on England's backline.

.....

Edu, the head coach from Côte d'Ivoire, blows the whistle!

Balotelli kicks the ball behind him and the game begins!!

The Italians were in no hurry to attack, and they played the ball all the way back to the feet of goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.

It's Italian style.

They don't play at a fast pace, but the Italians tend to strike their enemies in unexpected areas.

And the England pair immediately pressed up to chase and intercept the front!

"The England players were very excited from the start of the game, they were pressing very high up front!!"

The commentator in England said excitedly.

"The lads showed a great desire to play!"

That being said, there are also those that pour cold water.

For example, the Brazilian commentator pouted disdainfully when he saw this scene.

"The English tried to get up to the tempo at the beginning of the game and it was 90 minutes! If the English don't save a little energy, they will probably collapse at the end of the game! ”

Brazilians don't have a good impression of Gao Bo.

This is mainly due to the poor relationship between Gao Bo and Scolari.

The two have had several war of words.

Even because of Kaka's incident, the two quarreled in the media again.

At the time, Gobo asserted that Scolari's model was no longer fit for modern football and that Brazil would taste the bitter consequences of the World Cup on home soil.

As soon as these words came out, they naturally offended the Brazilian fans.

It's just that Gao Bo didn't know that he would appear at the World Cup in Brazil at that time, but even if he knew at the time, it was impossible for him to change his words.

Therefore, if it is said that the least popular team in Brazil, England will certainly not be able to catch up with Argentina, but they will at least be at the top.

It's mostly about their manager.

Of course, Brazilian fans don't like Gao Bo Gui, but they can't afford to buy tickets to boo Gao Bo's team – the feud between the two sides has not yet reached that point.

And will Gao Bo worry about the team's fitness problems?

In fact, Gao Bo was not worried at all.

Because, the England team equipped with the fitness card, their physical strength can definitely support them to carry out such high-intensity pressing.

Although Prandley was a little surprised by the intensity of England's pressing, he only frowned.

In his opinion, such intensity could not be sustained.

So when Andrea Pirlo played a long ball up front and was headed over to Henderson by Harry Maguire.

The ball returned to England's side, and the Italian players were not surprised, they also quickly returned to the defense, ready to slowly lay out the defence!!

At this time, Henderson made a long pass directly to Sterling on the right!

"Henderson's long pass! Stirling is very fast!! ”

On the commentary seat!

Duan Xuan's voice became urgent!!

"Sterry has a low ball down the middle!! Rooney!!!! ”

I saw that on the screen, Rooney took the ball and made a feint to shoot, and then dialed the ball to the other side!!

"Gerard !!!!!!"

Almost all the narrators shouted out the name!

On the pitch!

The England captain plugged in from the back row and was fully prepared for the bow and arrow!!

Gao Bo was just sitting in his seat, his butt was slightly raised at this time, and his body leaned forward!

"Improved the success rate of long-range shots by 25 percent! Gerrard!!! ”

A hint of excitement appeared in the corners of Gao Bo's eyes!!

This is Gerald!

Gerald with a hard toe!!

In an area of about twenty-eight meters from the goal!

Gerrard's right foot is the football headquarters!

"Boom !!"
