Chapter Ninety-Five: The Semifinals Are on the Verge

"Who will win?"

"Of course I want China, after all, Belgium beat us."

"That's what we said four years ago."

"But if Belgium loses to China, wouldn't it be a shame for us to lose to Belgium? Does this mean that the gap between us and the Chinese team is a bit big? ”

Brazilian fans are very conflicted, they want to support the Chinese team, but they feel that Brazil is very cheap. Many Brazilian fans showed up at the St. Petersburg stadium, still watching the World Cup.

Wearing yellow Brazil jerseys, they all thought their home team was going to play the semi-finals, so they booked their tickets, tickets and accommodation in advance, but they didn't come to the scene anyway.

Indeed, if Brazil had beaten Belgium in the previous Kazan match, they would have come here to play China in the semi-finals.

Sadly, they ended up losing to their opponents and went home early. The Brazilian team went home early, but fans need to confirm their itinerary early, and many Brazilian fans book flights and accommodation to St. Petersburg several days in advance, because if they don't book in advance, they will probably have to sleep on the streets.

"When the Chinese Dong is old and completely withdraws from the Chinese national team, the opportunity for other teams will come, and now, please believe that this guy will continue to create miracles, since the Chinese team can reach the top four, it has the ability to win the championship. If I were a gambler, I would definitely keep betting on him, and there would never be a second option. Like if we have Pele or Maradona in our team, we have to believe in them. ”

"Don't underestimate Cristiano Ronaldo, Ronaldo also entered the semi-finals, maybe the final is China VS Portugal. This year was the national team of the two superstars who won the World Cup, with Belgium and Croatia both a little short of each other. ”

"Ronaldo is very strong, but he is also a lot weaker than the Chinese Dong, judging from their previous matchups, Ronaldo also has fewer wins and more losses. History shows that the birth of the king of the ball will always be accompanied by great players, whether it is Ronaldo or Messi. ”

As a Brazilian fan, worrying about other countries is also drunk, who called the Brazilian national team has only one Neymar over the years, and it can't shake the strength of the world's top three. In the past, fans from other countries envied the number of Brazilian stars, but now Brazil does not have such an advantage. After the retirement of top superstars such as Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and Kaka, one Neymar could not lead Brazil to a resurgence, and Brazil no longer had the glory of the past.

At this time, the St. Petersburg stadium was already crowded, and the Chinese fans in red shirts and Belgian fans in white shirts were in a confrontation, and the fans on both sides almost dyed the stands red and white. On the Chinese red side, the fans waved the five-star red flag, the gongs and drums shook the sky, and the momentum was obviously stronger.

Through the live broadcast footage, you can also see several Chinese football celebrities sitting in the VIP seat, all of whom won the 2014 Brazil World Cup champions, Chen Tao and Qu Peng, who have retired, both of whom have followed the Chinese team to win the World Cup. Originally, Zhu Ting was supposed to appear here, but when the World Cup just started, Zhu Ting broke out a scandal and returned to China.

Next to them, there is still Zhao Junzhe, but Zhao Junzhe's luck is not so good, he has not been able to win the championship with the national team, but he is now the head of the logistics equipment department and belongs to the leadership of the Football Association.

On the other side of Zhao Junzhe sat Sun Jihai and Shao Jiayi, both of whom were also members of the World Champions, and they exchanged heads and smiles from time to time.

In the live commentary stands, Duan Xuan and Huang Jianxiang had already started the live broadcast, and nearly 600 million people across the country were watching their live broadcast.

'We've got the starting line-up now.'

"Belgium should have played in a 343 formation because there was one less full-back, and manager Martinez changed the formation again. 343 also means that Belgium will attack us, and like the previous French team, the Chinese defence will continue to be tested by the world. ”

"Goalkeeper: Thibaut Courtois."

'Defenders: Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Kompany.'

'Midfielders: Witsel, De Bruyne, Fellaini, Dembele.'

'Forwards: Eden Hazard, Romelu Lukaku, Chadley.

"This Dembele is not the Dembele of France, his fame is not as big as that of France, but his combat effectiveness is not worse than his."

"On the Chinese team's side, goalkeeper Zeng Cheng, defenders are Wang Gang, Feng Xiaoting, Zheng Zhi, Li Xuepeng, midfielders are Huang Bowen, Zhao Xuri, Wu Xi, Zheng Zhi, and forwards are Wei Shihao and Feng Jin. Wu Sanshi didn't start, which is very surprising. Dong Fangzhuo seems to have played a very slippery game. Wei Shihao and Feng Jin do not have a height advantage, but they have speed and technical advantages, in fact, I think the Chinese team is still without a striker today, Dong Fangzhuo, Feng Jin and Wei Shihao are all players who can not only fight alone, but also play teamwork, and can play the role of the front court to the maximum. ”

"Spinach are slightly bullish on Belgium and offer Belgium a half-and-half handicap, and they think it will be a big game, with the combined number of goals between the two sides estimated to be three. But the last game between China and France was 1:0, and I don't believe that this semi-final can play a big score, after all, it is a World Cup semi-final. ”

"For the Chinese team, facing Eden Hazard, Romelu Lukaku and De Bruyne at the same time today is no less than the combination of Mbappe, Antoine Griezmann and Kalou. De Bruyne and Eden Hazard, in particular, are both players who can pass and shoot, and it is terrible to have one such player, and Belgium actually have two at the same time. ”

"Needless to say, the Chinese team is playing on Dong Fangzhuo, we have to admit that Dong Fangzhuo is our greatest hope, all teammates revolve around him, he is the only core of the whole team."

"What surprised me was that Dong Fangzhuo made a big adjustment in this game, Feng Jin, Wei Shihao, Wu Xi, Li Xuepeng, Wang Gang, nearly half of the players have no experience in the World Cup semifinals, but Dong Fangzhuo still boldly made changes. These players will also be the main force of the 2022 World Cup in China. After the end of this World Cup, it is estimated that many players will withdraw from the stage of the national team, such as Zheng Zhi, Huang Bowen, Zhao Xuri, these players, it is basically impossible to have the 2022 World Cup, and the only thing to look forward to is Dong Fangzhuo......"

……

……

The national anthem was played at the St. Petersburg Stadium, and Dong Fangzhuo led his team to the World Cup final once again. Every player is singing the national anthem, their eyes are focused, and their faces are full of determination.

The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.
