In a few hours, we will face Italy, the winners of the 2006 World Cup. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Bilic lined up our starting line-up. It can be said that there is no suspense in this starting lineup:

Goalkeeper: Pleticosa

Defenders: Srna, Strinic, Giorluka, Sildenfeld

Midfielders: Luka Modric, Rakitic, Perisic, Vukojevic

Forwards: Mandzukic, Jelavic

Our team's traditional lineup, that's it. Sometimes Vukojevic's place will be replaced by Dujmovic, and Strinic's place will sometimes be replaced by Vida, but the other positions are basically fixed, and everyone has been fighting together for so long and is very familiar.

On the opposite side, the Italian team, in addition to the forward line, also has a traditional lineup - Pirlo, Barzagli, Chiellini, Bonucci, and Buffon - these Juventus players are the core strength of the Italian team.

However, there is one more person among them who no one can fathom -

He is, Balotelli.

In the last match against Spain, Balotelli could have made a long run to kill the game, but he stopped to "think about life", and the ball was cut off by the Spanish defenders. But before that, Balotelli was the most dangerous player in Italy's forward line, despite not scoring a goal.

His physical fitness is the strongest in the entire European Cup. There are many players who have both height and weight, strength and skill, but he still has speed, which is an extremely outrageous thing - you know, in addition to Balotelli, another person who has both height and weight, strength and technique, and also has speed is the great star of the Portuguese team - Cristiano Ronaldo! Even Messi has not reached such comprehensiveness, Messi is extremely technical and fast, but his height and weight are not good. This shows what a terrible existence Balotelli really is!

However, Balotelli's world is not understood by everyone. He can score unbelievable goals, and he can also throw away a simple ball unbelievably enough. Such a striker is a real headache for our back line.

Either way, we are fighting for Croatia's honor. After the first game, we were at the top of the group, so even Italy couldn't take us lightly. Our offensive line has Modric, Rakitic, and the great air bully - Mandzukic, such a midfielder, even the Italians, will envy it! After all, apart from Balotelli, there is only one Dinata in his thirties left, and another bad boy in his thirties, Cassano!

The game is about to start, our players, get ready to play!

And I, like the last game, sat on the bench. I'm not a great player, I'm just a substitute player, but now I have a mission in my heart, a dream.

With what Coach Bilic taught me, the aerial coordination of Modric, Mandzukic and me, go and score!

And also......

As long as I scored three goals and Croatia won the European Championship......

Then, I will complete Arosteve's mission, and I will return to the "future" that I did not know......

In that "future", there is a real ...... that says he loves me and gives himself to me The beautiful woman......

Alosteve, I'm going to win for you!

I made up my mind secretly.

……

"Tick!" The referee blows the whistle and the game begins!

Modric has the ball! Italy's great midfielder Andrea Pirlo personally came to defend Modric! At that time, AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti creatively put Pirlo from the front to the back, making him a rare technical ball control midfielder in the world, and later created a "four tens" diamond-shaped midfielder composed of Pirlo, Seedorf, Rui Costa, and Rivaldo, which is powerful in the world! The core position - the back midfield, is by Pirlo himself, with Pirlo's scheduling, Milan's four tens run smoothly, in Serie A and the Champions League have achieved great results!

However, Pirlo's offense is a good hand, but his defense cannot be called world-class! It is precisely because of this defect of Pirlo that in the later stages of Ancelotti's tenure in Milan, he always had to be equipped with a power midfielder by Pirlo's side to assist him - that is, "Butcher" Gattuso! In today's Italian team, only Pirlo is left, but there is no Gattuso, and it is not impossible for Modric to get past Pirlo's defense!

Sure enough! Modric only lightly flicked the ball and gave Pirlo away! He passed the ball to Rakitic in front of him before Pirlo could make his next move!

This Italian team is a very civilian Italian team. Apart from Andrea Pirlo in midfield, only Montolivo can be described as a technical player. However, their power players are not very strong, and none of the midfielders, including Maggio, Marchisio, Motta and Giaccherini, can stop the connection between Modric and Rakitic!

Rakitic managed to catch the ball! He quickly passed the ball back to Perisic on the wing! Perisic was quick, he made a long run to the back of the Italian field, crossed Barzagli on the bottom line, and then crossed!

Mandzukic, can he beat Chiellini and smash the ball into the net with his golden head?

Mandzukic jumps and fights for the top!

Chiellini jumped too! On his arm, there is a pressing movement!

But the referee didn't blow it!

It's like that day, in training, I beat Subaic, but Bilic didn't see it, didn't for a foul!

For this ball, Mandzukic also did not get the referee's whistle!

……

Chiellini destroys the ball!

The ball was got by Pirlo! He made a through ball and the ball quickly reached Cassano in the forward line! Cassano received the ball relatively far back, and in front of him, it was Modric!

Modric's body, although not very strong, but his muscles are very lean and hard, and he is not afraid of physical confrontation at all!

The most important thing is that Modric has a stunt of "stealing the ball"!

After Cassano received the ball, he was about to take advantage of the situation to pass Modric, and at this moment, Modric gently and skillfully bounced with his foot......

The ball popped straight between Cassano's feet......

Modric quickly stepped forward and snatched Cassano's ball!

"Long live Modric!" I shouted out with excitement!
