Chapter Thirty-Six: The Rooster Sings the World White!

At 3 a.m. Beijing time on July 2, 1998.

The quadrennial World Cup final has finally begun.

Before the game, people received the news that Ronaldo might not start?

Because half an hour before the game, there was no Ronaldo's name on the starting list of the Brazilian team?

All the reporters thought that Brazil had made a mistake, and ten minutes later, although the alien's name was back on the starting line-up, it was a sign that there must be something wrong with the game.

The 16th World Cup final France vs Brazil 3:0

French President Jacques Chirac himself wore the uniform of the French national team to cheer for his team in the stands, and the French, who had the advantage of home field, were singing "La Marseillaise" from an hour before the game.

"Onward! Advance! Sons of the motherland, that glorious moment has come! ”

Perhaps, the moment of glory for the French team has really arrived.

For eight consecutive years, Italy in 90, the United States in 94, and France failed to reach the finals of the World Cup for eight years, which is a shame for them and a shame for France!

In this World Cup, the French team finally rushed to the final as the host, they eliminated Italy, eliminated China, and successfully met the world's football kingdom, the four-star Brazilian team!

Will they be able to win?

This year's French team is known as the strongest French team in the history of the French team, their backline is as solid as a rock, only Italy in its heyday can be compared, Zidane and Djokaeff in the midfield are also world-class superstars, and the strikers Anelka and Henry are known as one of the most potential newcomers in the new century.

But they are facing Brazil, the kingdom of football, and perhaps everyone except the fans in France and the people who already know the outcome of the game will think that Brazil will win, because they are the kingdom of football in the world, and they have aliens - Ronaldo!

Ling Feng's injury to Croatia cheered the French, and they eventually eliminated China and advanced to the final, but what about Brazil?

Thuram, Desailly, Deschamps, Vieira and Petit, will these top defenders be able to watch the aliens?

The answer will soon be revealed.

At the beginning of the game, no one could see that Ronaldo was too abnormal, even if he ran loosely, even if he didn't have many chances to get the ball, but after all, it was just the beginning!

The almost perfect performance of the aliens against the Dutch team three days ago has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of French fans, as for the rumors of Ronaldo's physical discomfort - God forbid, the French have been played by Ling Feng's smoke bomb when they played against the Chinese team, who knows, it is not a smoke bomb now, but the truth......

Just five minutes into the game, Carlos made a long pass to the penalty area, and Barthez jumped up nearly a person's height in the air, knocking over the aliens who were competing for the top at once!

The two bald heads fell together in the French team's penalty area, and it was obvious that Ronaldo had been hit hard this time!

From the slow motion, Barthez pressed his body against Ronaldo after knocking the ball out of the air with both fists - notice that Barthez actually fell off his head and feet, right on the alien's body!

Is this ball fouled? The answer is no!

The two sides are in a state of equal chance, and Barthez has absolute privileges as a goalkeeper in the box!

But Ronaldo didn't get up on the ground for half a day.

Even in his heyday, he will probably faint for a while after receiving this impact, not to mention that the bald man is still a patient - in the words of team doctor Grava to the media after the game, he and head coach Zagallo at the time: "I can tell you very clearly that Ronaldo was indeed not in shape at that time, and his physical condition has deteriorated due to the drop in blood sugar in his body, and he may die suddenly at any time!" ”

I can't guarantee that Grava's words are not alarmist, and it is a miracle that such a player who will "die suddenly" at any time is not dead after being hit by Barthez.

The next performance of Fei Luo can be described by the word "sleepwalking"!

Aliens seem to be bound by the gravitational pull of the earth! He couldn't play the form he should have in that game against the Netherlands!

Not to mention the state at that time, he couldn't even meet the standard of an ordinary player!

"I said this to Qi Lao Er after the match against the French team," the old horse in the stands turned his head and said quietly to Ling Feng: "I asked him if he knows your Chinese Huo Yuanjia?" Lao Qi was stunned at that time. ”

"Damn!" Ling Feng gestured his middle finger at him: "Even Huo Yuanjia knows that you really think you are a mountain!" ”

"I'm not as good as his Chinese words." The old horse smiled very modestly, and the angry Ling Feng wanted to smash a brick on his head.

"Ronaldo is like that now," the old horse laughed, "he has already been hit." ”

Ling Feng continued to have the urge to slap Lao Ma to death with a brick, comparing Ronaldo to Huo Yuanjia, which onion is he? Besides, Huo Daxia's family knew that they were poisoned, or they still fought until the last moment because of the poison that was life-threatening, but Ronaldo was obviously forced to play - also China Tong, cut!

In the next game, the French team gradually took the initiative.

In the 27th minute of the game, the French team got a corner kick opportunity on the left side of the front field, Djokaeff drove out, a bright thing flashed, and the ball entered and flew into the door of the Brazilian team!

Zinedine Zidane!

When the light of Ronaldo's bald head dimmed, Zidane's baldness shone on the Stade de France and the whole of France!

The Stade de France is boiling, and so is the whole of France!

Zinedine Zidane scored the leading goal with his worst header, and he became the hero of the French team!

Zidane raised his hands high and accepted the bow of the whole France, and Ling Feng confirmed Lao Ma's words - the king of the ball is to win the World Cup by himself as the scepter of his own enthronement.

The so-called one-man strength, naturally, will not rely entirely on one person - even if it is the Chinese team, Ling Feng only represents most of the offensive firepower.

The history of this World Cup has changed, and the strong participation of the Chinese team has made the Saudi team not even touch the edge of the top 32, so in the group stage, Qi Bald did not receive a red card because of a momentary lack of calmness.

(In fact, everyone has also seen it, saying that it is different, it is different from the time when the Chinese team played, and other times, it is basically according to the original historical development, after all, the game of the 98 World Cup is too classic, Lao Bing, I don't want to change it, as for 02 years, it is really a big change!) )

In the semi-finals, Zidane scored his first goal in the World Cup - it was this golden goal that the French team eliminated the Chinese team to advance to the final, and Zidane became the hero of the whole of France for a time.

But at this time, it is time for Zidane to be crowned!

Ling Feng was very envious, very envious, the honor he was missing now was only one World Cup champion!

Look at Puskas back then, like Ling Feng, he hasn't tasted a defeat in the league for three years! At that time, Hungary was also standing on the top of the whole world.

But what about the result? The German's Bern miracle shattered Puskas's dream of being crowned, and he lost the World Cup, although in the 70s, a German media listed him, Lee Hui Tong and Matthews, Stefano and Pele as the world's top five football champions, but due to the lack of a person to win the World Cup, Pele is the only one who is firmly remembered.

Although Beckenbauer won the world championship, he did not play a decisive role in the team, otherwise according to his results and strength, he should be one of the champions.

Paulo•Rossi and Romario, although they also won the World Cup single-handedly, were also blocked out of the king because their own strength was not too recognized by the world.

Only Maradona, his skills, his key goals, his World Cup victory, so Maradona will be known as the king of the ball recognized by the world after Pele!

Ling Feng's skills and strength have been recognized by the world, and his decisive situation has also been recognized by the world, but he is now the same as Puskas, just one World Cup champion!

Ling Feng has already made up his mind, in 02, when the World Cup comes to China, he must use that Hercules Cup as his wedding gift to Siyue at home, and use that Hercules Cup as his crowning scepter!

After scoring a goal, the morale of the French team was boosted, and when the first half entered injury time, Carlos made a mistake in clearing the ball, and the French team won another corner kick on the right side, and it was Zidane again, who received a corner kick from his companion in the penalty area, and passed through Carlos's crotch with a powerful header, and broke the door of the Brazilian team for the second time!!

The French at this time can no longer be described as excited!

Zidane has ascended to the altar! His two golden, nay, diamond-like goals helped France lead defending champions Brazil in the first half!

At half-time, the joyful French fans sang and danced to bask in the joy of the lead, leading by two goals in the first half, and in the second half, it was almost harder for Brazil to recover than it was to climb to the sky - because the French team firmly controlled the whole situation on the field!

The best result in the history of the French team was third place, at the 1958 World Cup in Switzerland, the legendary French team's goalscorer Fontaine, who set a record of 13 goals in a World Cup with a pair of borrowed shoes!

It's a record that no one has been able to break to this day, and with more and more emphasis on defense and fewer and fewer offensive battles, I am afraid that this record will never be broken - seven games, which is equivalent to two goals per game, which is almost an impossible task!

At the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, France staged a thrilling battle against Brazil, and in the end, Platini defeated Zico, but finally fell to the feet of Bremer and Worrall to finish third again.

But for the next eight years, after Platini's departure, France fell silent and did not reach the World Cup finals for eight consecutive years.

French football is not a superpower team in Europe at this time, although they have reached the level of strength - after all, French football has historically been suppressed by other European teams, such as England and Germany.

The French made a great contribution to world football, with Robed•Gaeran founding FIFA in 1904; Twenty-six years later, Jules • Rime helped Remet co-create the World Cup; Unley•Delaunay founded UEFA in 1954 and hosted his first European Championship six years later; In 1955 and 1956, still a Frenchman, Gabriel•Arnaud advocated the European Champions Cup, the predecessor of today's most popular competition, the UEFA Champions League, and the European Ballon d'Or, the highest individual honor in football today, that is, the European Footballer of the Year, the most valuable individual in the player's personal evaluation.

But in the early days of the French team, the strength was really poor!

They were once humiliated by England 15-0 and they had not won a national team match in three years!

But the Frenchman came out, and Zidane's goal just now was not only a goal that the French team almost guaranteed victory, but also the 999th goal in the history of the French national team since its establishment in 1905!

You read that right, it's such a coincidence!

In the second half, Brazil still didn't seem to wake up, Ronaldo was still sleepwalking, and Zagallo still didn't replace him.

Although Desailly was sent off for a foul in the 68th minute, the French team, who were playing with 10 men, not only resisted Brazil's undisciplined counterattack, but also scored another goal with Petit on the counter-attack before the end of the game!

The thousandth goal! France's 1,000th goal in the tournament since its inception!

With a whistle from referee Said•Belquera, the game was over!

France defeated Brazil, the mighty football kingdom, 3-0 to win the 16th World Cup!
