The Chinese Olympic team finally drew 1:1 with the Brazilian Olympic team at the Qinhuangdao Olympic Sports Center, and emerged from Group C of the Beijing Olympic Games with seven points from three games, two wins and one draw, but they were relegated to second place due to a goal difference, so they had to meet the stronger Italian Olympic team in the quarterfinals of the two groups.

After the game, the captains of the national Olympic team, Ailo and Dujkovic, both expressed their apologies in front of media interviews.

The next day, domestic media reports did not criticize the national Olympic team, but seized the time to help study the flaws of the upcoming 1/4 final opponent Italian Olympic team.

It can be said that it is on the national research!

It is rare for the national Olympic team to reach the knockout stage in the Olympic Games held in China, and it is a time for the whole people to carnival and contribute.

At this time, the advantage of having more Chinese is reflected.

For one day, all the members of the Italian Olympic team were thoroughly studied by the veteran fans.

However, the problem arises again.

The more people there are, the more opinions there are, so ...... Many netizens began to tear up on the Internet, and they were not convinced.

In just half a day, the Internet has become a miasma, leaving traces of them everywhere.

Penguin swarms, post bars, forums, various fan sites......

It's a lot of fun.

The Chinese Olympic team seized the time to prepare for the Olympic 1/4 finals against the Italian Olympic team in Beijing Workers' Stadium two days later.

Of course, there is a lot of debate on the Internet, and no one in the Chinese Olympic team knows about it, and they all focus on training and conduct targeted training.

Only before the group stage of the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, the Italian national team played a friendly match with the Chinese team in order to prepare for the World Cup group stage with the South Korean national team, and the score was 2:0, and Italy won.

However, the historical confrontation has nothing to do with the upcoming 1/4 knockout rounds of the Olympic Games, and at most it has reference significance.

In addition, Dujkovic already had a set of tactics in mind to deal with this powerful Italian Olympic team.

In fact, this is not Dujkovic who came up with it himself, but borrowed from the successful tactics of Valencia and Chelsea to make full use of Elo's individual ability.

He firmly believes...... As long as Iroh is put to good use, then the game becomes much easier.

Didn't Valencia in 2006-2007 and Chelsea in 2007-2008 win the Champions League because of Arlo's outstanding performances?

So...... Dujkovic is confident for the next matches.

It is worth mentioning that there are also Ailuo himself, Gao Lin, Feng Xiaoting, Chen Tao and Wang Xiaolei who are full of confidence in the next game.

But there is a fundamental difference in confidence here, Iroh is confident in his own strength, while the other players are because of Iro's excellent performance to give them too many good memories, as long as Iroh is still there, then the game becomes simpler.

To show his confidence, Iello also used his personal connections to get a couple of tickets to the 100m semifinals and finals of the track and field competition at the International Stadium that night!

This day's track and field competition is still fresh in Elo's memory, Jamaican star Usain Bolt broke the Olympic 100m record at the Bird's Nest, and also set a new world record! 9.69 seconds!! An exciting record!! However, what Iroh remembers most is that Bolt did not run at full speed, but slowed down significantly in the last few meters.

※※※

In the blink of an eye, the time has reached the 16th, which is the eighth day of competition in the Beijing Olympic Games, and China is still ranked first in the gold medal table, so to speak...... Just like Iroh remembered, there was no pressure.

Countless Chinese viewers, as they have done since the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics, have turned on their televisions to find the match program about the final of the Chinese team.

In the past two days, whenever the ccav-5 station has advertising time, there will always be a promotional video full of enthusiasm: the background is the wonderful moment of the Chinese Olympic team wearing red jerseys in the three group stages of the Beijing Olympic Games, accompanied by passionate music, Ailuo's shot, Chen Tao's sound of hitting the west, Gao Lin's heel ball, Feng Xiaoting's blocking, Wang Xiaolei's save...... In the end, it all came together in four words - win the game!

In the middle of the screen is the game time: 18:00 on August 16, Beijing Workers Stadium.

"It's a game to look forward to and a reassuring game! That's right, it's the Chinese Olympic team led by the world footballer Aylo! They will face the Italian Olympic team in the quarterfinals of the Beijing Olympic Games football match at the Beijing Workers Stadium at 6 o'clock in the afternoon on the 16th!! I hope that all Chinese fans will hold hands and connect hearts, let us support this hopeful team together, come on! We...... Together! National Stadium !! While the passionate background music sounds, you can also hear the emotional roar of the DJ.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the sky above the Beijing Workers' Stadium was already filled with the atmosphere of the home stadium, and the seats were full.

There was a sea of red everywhere, and there were only two pitiful stands in the blue Italian area, and only 3,000 Italian fans were there.

From the moment the players entered the stadium to the warm-up, their voices never stopped, and they were always singing the "Chinese National Anthem" and "Singing the Motherland" over and over again under the guidance of the major fan organizations.

Of course, whenever a player passes by the sidelines, the fans will subconsciously chant the player's name.

Especially when it was Elo's turn to walk to the plastic runway, the whole Workers' Stadium was called a real home atmosphere.

The unified chant was shouted in an unorganized manner.

Francisco, the Italian national television announcer who was preparing for the final stage of work in the live studio, was stunned by the neat chanting, and he turned to his guest partner and said, "Angelo, listen...... These are cheers from the home fans, I think...... It's going to be a very difficult game for us! ”

The guest partner Yan Sù nodded and said, "That's right! If it weren't for my badge reminding me that this is China's Beijing Workers' Stadium, I would have thought it was the home of Europe's famous Big Five! ”

Francesco, the Italian national television announcer, sighed, and then continued to test whether the headset in his hand was smooth.

1/4 of the men's football match of the Beijing Olympic Games between the Chinese Olympic team and the Italian Olympic team kicked off on time at 6 o'clock in the afternoon Beijing time.

With the referee's whistle, Ailo kicked the football at his feet to Gao Lin, and then slowly ran forward.

"CCTV, CCTV, now for you live broadcast of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games men's football match 1/4 finals of the Chinese Olympic team against the Italian Olympic team, wearing a red jersey and red pants is the Chinese Olympic team, and wearing a blue jersey and blue pants is the Italian Olympic team, and now the game has begun......"

gogogogo――

At the same time, nearly 60,000 Chinese fans in the stands erupted in loud cheers.

made Giovinco and Acquafresca, who were about to step forward to rush, subconsciously stop moving under their feet and were stunned on the spot.

The two were stunned, but Gao Lin, who took the ball, was not stunned, but suddenly thought about what would happen if he directly moved the ball forward?

Do what you want, Gao Lin did not play steadily as planned before the game, but suddenly moved the ball forward, and by the time Giovinco and Aquafrsca reacted, Gao Lin had already passed the half circle arc of the Italian Olympic team.

At this time, Montolivo stepped forward to mark.

Gao Lin didn't want to go head-to-head with Montolivo, and with a flick of the outside of his left foot, the football passed to the answering Iro, and he ran forward quickly, making the illusion of answering Iro.

Sure enough, Montolivo did not turn around and chase after Iro, but ran back with Gao Lin.

In the men's football 1/4 finals of the Beijing Olympics, Italy did not line up their usual 442 formation, but the 433 formation that is currently very popular in international football, so there are only three players in the midfield.

Giovinco, Rossi and Aquafresca have yet to reclaim the 40-metre zone of their own defence, which means that the current defence can only be handed to three midfielders and four defenders.

As the captain, Montolivo did not dare to be careless, and followed Gao Lin back to the middle, leaving the wings and ribs to Elo to wait for reinforcements, and he firmly believed that football would eventually lead to the middle.

That's why Montolivo chose to retreat to the middle rather than turn and chase after Elo, a player with a very high ball IQ who would not give up a better defensive position because of the slim stakes in front of him.

However, Elo's next choice was not expected by Montolivo, he did not go directly to the right rib of the Italian Olympic team, but shook his right ankle from a distance of 40 meters...... Cut in!

Seeing the way Iroh handled the ball, the cheers that had just come down rose violently.

They all know that it's ...... Iroh's attitude!

Montolivo was taken away by Gao Lin, so the responsibility of defending Ailo was handed over to another midfielder, Nocerino.

Nocerino rushed towards Iello like a hungry tiger, known as 'New Gattuso', and wanted to prove himself in this Olympic Games! He is Nocerino, not who's who!

However, Iroh's speed suddenly froze, and the outside of his right foot flicked the ball to the right.

Stop!

Nocerino didn't stop the car in time because he rushed too hard.

As soon as Ilo circled Nocerino, there was a large open area in front of him.

So he chose to take the ball forward, and Montolivo had to choose to go up and defend Elo, he knew ...... I can't keep Iroh going.

He didn't want his team to be the fastest goal ever scored by Iello at the Olympics.

At this time, Iroh suddenly picked up his right foot about 32 meters from the goal and shot from a distance!

Even though goalkeeper Viviano was well prepared, his flying save still didn't hit the ball.

Whew-w

The fans at the scene were stunned for a moment, and then shouted violently.
