Chapter 83: The King and the Angle (I)

In the waiting of thousands of fans around the world, the final moment of the World Cup in South Africa has finally arrived.

The first was the battle for the third place, the German team and the Uruguay team that were blocked by the Spanish team and the Dutch team were out of the finals, and after 90 minutes of fierce battle, the final score was 3:2, with the goals of Gomez, Podolski and Klose, the German team finally won the goal battle and won the third place in this cup.

Not being able to reach the final, or even to compete for the most glorious Hercules Cup, is undoubtedly a huge regret for the German team, and this third place can be regarded as a relief for their disappointed feelings.

The German team won the third place in the World Cup in South Africa, and after the game, many media and newspapers sent praise and blessings to the German team. But more fans have no time to pay attention to the third-place winners, and for fans who have been waiting for more than a month, tomorrow's championship battle is the real feast.

"3:2, the German team defeated the South American powerhouse Uruguay and won the third place in the World Cup!"

"The third runner-up has been born, and the battle for the champion and runner-up is just around the corner!"

"The time is still here for the Spanish team to make football history in the Iberian Peninsula!"

"Robben: We have nothing to fear! We will use our will to win everything! ”

"The World Cup final, the time, is finally here!"

……

July 11, the day of the finals.

Since late at night, the whole of Johannesburg has been in a state of excitement and noise, countless fans have stayed up all night, carnivaling on the streets, fans with tickets have gathered outside the football stadium early to start waiting, and fans who have not been able to get tickets are also in nearby bars and shops, gathering together, chatting and laughing, drinking and waiting slowly.

From the morning, the whole city is more noisy, countless fans shuttle through the streets and alleys, everyone is wearing World Cup souvenirs, and some fans are wearing the jerseys of the Spanish team (Netherlands), carrying the flag, and boiling in the city.

This is a feast for football, and in this city, on this day, people do not have complicated household chores, there is no heavy work, people wander in the sea of football, while partying, while waiting.

When it was 6 p.m., the whole city was even more congested, and the original local residents, coupled with the continuous influx of hundreds of thousands of fans from all over the world, the whole city was full of people and things related to football.

"The Netherlands! Team Dutch!! Netherlands !! ”

"After today, we will no longer be the uncrowned kings! Because we are...... Champion! ”

"Spain! Spain!! Spain!!! Great army of matadors, you will use your own fire and passion to ignite the carnival of the whole summer! ”

Everywhere in the streets, you can see fans wearing the jerseys of the Spanish team (the Netherlands), cheering and jumping, and whenever the camera sweeps, these fans will rush up and use their passionate and confident voices to announce their confidence and blessings to the world.

……

The final started at 8:30 p.m., and before 7:30 p.m., the stands of the Soccer City Stadium were already full, this modern football stadium with a capacity of nearly 95,000 people, red and orange two colors are distinct, the fans are either cheering and roaring, or playing Mexican waves, roaring shouts, fiery singing, the atmosphere of the stadium has not yet started, the atmosphere of the stadium has been warmed up.

Molina and Felisa appeared in the corner next to the south stand, the latter's face was full of excitement and excitement, as a die-hard football fan, Felisa has been to watch many teams' home games, she has seen a lot of hot and fierce atmosphere, but the experience of the World Cup final, but never before, this game is obviously more important, and it has a different meaning.

She was able to watch a lot of football matches, but not every World Cup she was able to come to the final, and most importantly, in this final, the person she loved would also appear on the stage, which made her feel even more happy and excited.

Of course, Felisa also has a little dissatisfaction, the ticket that Molina bought is too far away from the stadium, and in the most corner position, the sight is not very good, which makes Felisa, who still has Fan Bizhuang running to the stands to celebrate after scoring a goal, can still be pleasantly surprised to see her expectations Felisa, just this unnoticed corner location, so far away from the stadium, it is strange that Fan Bizhuang can see himself.

Felisa waved and shouted along with the unknown fans around her, and from time to time she turned her head and looked at her father with a grudge. Molina smiled wryly and shook his head at her: "Don't look at me like that, Felisa, you know, it's not easy to buy tickets, think about the many fans who can't get into the stadium, we're already so happy." ”

That's a big truth. The pre-sale of tickets for the finals has already begun, although Molina started booking in advance, but the final venue is so big, there are so many seats, there are more monks and less porridge, so many fans around the world, countless people want to enter the final venue, Molina waits by the phone every day, and he can't buy tickets.

In desperation, Molina could only spend a high price to find a way to find a ticket seller after arriving in South Africa. The pre-sale price of tickets for the finals has long been made public, and the price difference is obvious, the best first class seat is $900 a piece, and the lowest fourth class seat is $400 a piece, Molina doesn't want to buy tickets for the best view seats, but the problem is that even if he wants to, fans who have tickets may not sell it.

In the end, with the help of a black brother, Molina was able to get two fourth-class tickets, at a cost of $4,000, of course. The price of $2,000 each, which is almost five times higher than that of each of them, shows how tight and hot the tickets have become.

Therefore, it is not easy to buy tickets for the finals, and it is completely unreasonable to pick and choose.

Felisa also understands this, but she just can't help but be petty.

"I know it's hard to get tickets, but sitting here ...... It's hard for Uncle Fan to see me! ”

Molina smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "Can you blame me for this, Felisa?" You yourself said you wanted to surprise Fan, and you didn't let me call him in advance to tell him that we were coming, and if we could get in touch with Fan, maybe he could find a way to get us tickets in a better position......"

"Are you blaming me, Mr. Contelares?"

Felisa raised her eyebrows and looked at her father.

Obviously, he can rely on his appearance to eat, but he has to make a fierce appearance of a "tigress", Molina patted his forehead with a bitter face, and under the gaze of his daughter, he raised his head with a very manly chest: "Ha, of course, it's all my fault!" ”

"That's pretty much it."

Felisa grimaced, turned and continued to join the screaming crowd.

Molina laughed twice and cheered as well.

……

As the time to play is getting closer, the two teams are also making their final preparations before the game.

In the Spanish locker room, Bosque threw the tactical board in his hand on the table, clapped his hands, and motioned for everyone to focus their eyes on it.

He has already told him, he has told the players, he has also paid attention to the players, and as the final is about to begin, he has decided to say something else to the players that has nothing to do with football tactics.

"Actually, there is not much to say, the importance and significance of this game, I think everyone knows very well in their hearts."

'We've never been to a World Cup final before, but we did it and we're standing here. We've never been to the top of the world, but now, we have the opportunity. ”

"Two years ago, we also stood on the venue of the finals, although the location is different, the opponent is different, but we have never won the championship before, but the record and history, from the moment it existed, the fate has long been predestined, it is used to be broken!"

"We made history by winning the European Championship and now we have to continue to make history, the opportunity to conquer the world is at our feet, I think we have to give it our all!"

"Maybe we will have the opportunity to stand on the stage of the World Cup final in the future, or maybe not, who can say for sure? …… There are many four years in life, but not every four years, and we as players can all stand here. I want you to do the best you can, at least ...... When we look back in old age, we don't leave ourselves with too many regrets. ”

"It's the best time, we're the best Spanish national team in history, and I hope that after ninety minutes we'll be able to stand on the highest podium and enjoy the envy and respect of the whole world...... So...... Come on, lads, whether it's for our dreams or for not to leave ourselves with regrets, we have to give it our all......"

Bosque's remarks were inflammatory, and the players were so excited that the young and enthusiastic players shook their fists and yelled at each other.

When the atmosphere was in high spirits, assistant coach Minona, suddenly ran in in a panic. Bosque frowned, and before he could express his displeasure to his assistant, Minano had already stumbled out, his face a mixed expression of shock and ecstasy.

Wen ...... Mr. Vincent, there are ...... There are guests coming......"

"Didn't I say that the team's dressing room is off-limits, especially before the big game, Minano, you ......"

Before the words fell, he was interrupted by Minano's urgent roar, and at this time, he didn't care about the distinction between superiors and subordinates.

"No...... No, it's ...... It's His Majesty the King who is coming! ”

Minano almost said this sentence in a roaring manner, Bosque was stunned for a moment, and the players in the locker room were all focused on Fan Bizhuang, and they looked suspicious - the king? Is that Fan? Ha, wasn't he here a long time ago?

Fan Bizhuang smiled embarrassedly and touched his nose.

"Not Fan! Not Fan!! Damn, it's His Majesty, our Majesty! It's His Majesty Carlos I! Our King of Spain! ”

The entire locker room fell silent for a moment, as if a pin had dropped.

And in the direction of the door of the dressing room, a silver-white old man in a suit and in good spirits had already strode in.
