Recife. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Located on the Atlantic coast, the city is the capital of the state of Pernambuco, the fifth-largest city in Brazil, and the largest in northeastern Brazil.

If these are too general, then Recife also has a nickname, the Venice of Brazil, so you should basically understand the characteristics of the city.

When the Chinese team arrived, they felt that it was not as peaceful as Brasilia, nor was it as prosperous as Rio, and it was more like a European city.

If going to Rio is a vacation, then when you come to Recife, the Chinese team will have to work hard, and the third game will directly determine whether the Chinese team can advance to the knockout round.

In the final round of the group stage, the knowledge of permutations and combinations learned in high school is very important, remember Euro 2004, in the end, Denmark and Sweden need to play at least 2-2 if they want to squeeze out Italy and qualify at the same time.

In the end, the two teams were really tied 2-2, making the stunner in the other match between Italy and Bulgaria meaningless.

The current group format of the Chinese team is:

China has 4 points, Italy has 4 points, but the Chinese team has one more goal difference, so it is in first place for the time being, and Brazil drew 1-1 with Italy in the second game, accumulating 2 points from two games and ranking third. Tahiti are bottom with 0 points.

In fact, it is not only the Chinese team that is analyzing the form of the final round, but also the Brazilian media in recent days.

In fact, the best situation in this group is the third-ranked Brazil team, because as long as they win Tahiti by 7 goals, they can guarantee 100% promotion, and there is no need to look at the result of the match between China and Italy.

Because in another game, the Chinese team beats Italy, then Brazil has one more point than Italy, and conversely, Brazil has one more point than China.

If China and Italy are tied, then Brazil and Italy will be on the same points, but with one more goal difference.

So can Brazil win Tahiti by 7? At least Brazil's own media are very confident in this.

The second advantage of qualifying is the Chinese team, as long as the Chinese team does not lose to Italy, and Italy must defeat the Chinese team, otherwise it can only look at Tahiti's face.

Of course, there is also the rarest situation, which is the situation made by Sweden and Denmark in 2002, that is, Brazil wins Tahiti by six, but China and Italy are tied 4-4, then the two teams squeeze out Brazil.

It may be that the Brazilians are not very good at mathematics, and most of the Brazilian media just tell the fans that anyway, the last big win over Tahiti will do, as for how many? I don't know, the more the merrier.

On the training ground, Li Guo handed each of the 23 players an A4 piece of paper, which was printed with the above analysis.

Mu Fei took it and looked at it, his head was big, "Head, I can't study well, can you explain it in one sentence." ”

Zhou Dun on the side is a smart person, and he understands at a glance, "The head means that we must win the next game." ”

Geng Chong on the other side said: "No, it should be a draw." ”

Li Guo smiled and thought: "Geng Chong is a little smart, and Zhou Dun is a big wisdom, how many times in the history of the Chinese team has the Chinese team lost under the curse of a draw and qualified, just because they didn't think further." ”

"Geng Chong, do you understand?"

Geng Chong nodded.

"Then let's go for another 10 laps, is there anyone who can't figure it out? If there is, go and run with Geng Chong. ”

Gradually, everyone figured it out and continued to train.

In Recife, the Chinese team's training became one practice day and one afternoon break, but today Li Guo organized everyone to watch the game - the semi-finals of the 2000 European Championship.

The Netherlands were the hosts that year and were placed in the Group of Death, alongside World Cup winners France, last year's European Championship runners-up Czech Republic and last year's European champions Denmark.

But before the semi-finals, no matter how strong the opponent was, the Netherlands advanced like chopping melons and vegetables, until they met Italy, and met the Italian goalkeeper who later became known as "Santoldo".

In this game, Li Guo watched the live broadcast in his previous life, when China was already on summer vacation, and for these players, they did not watch the live broadcast.

A good-looking game is never tired of watching, even if it is a video, everyone is very involved in watching it, because this game is like a blockbuster, like Tom Cruise's Mission Impossible, it looks like the protagonist is dead, but every time he escapes.

The game was the same, Italy looked like they had no chance and were awarded two penalties, but the winner of the game was Italy.

After watching the game, Li Guo turned off the projector and said: "In today's fast-changing football theory, Italy's defensive art has been passed down for decades, from Facchetti to Baresi, to Maldini, and now the latest is Chiellini. ”

"Italian football is great," Mu Fei muttered to himself.

I don't remember which football figure said that Italian football is like that, if you just knock him down and don't kill the opponent, then he will stand up and give back.

"But I don't say this to scare you, but to make you pay more attention to your upcoming opponents, and don't think that if we draw Brazil, then we can draw Italy."

Geng Chong said: "I hope Balotelli can also think about life this time." ”

Li Guo was about to make a joke to ease the atmosphere, "What do you say he was thinking at the time?" ”

"Women?"

The teammate smiled, "I guess I'm hungry," Mu Fei said.

Everyone talked about it, but they wanted to hear what Li Guo thought, "Head, what do you say he was thinking at the time?" ”

"I heard that Balotelli has a very good relationship with his adoptive mother, and I guess he misses his mother."

Everyone laughed, and the head's opinion was really the most bizarre.

*****

Speaking of Balotelli, Balotelli's name is not only very famous in China, but also in Brazil, the Italian team arrived in Recife one day later than the Chinese team, and the people who went to the airport to welcome the Italian team were about ten times that of the Chinese team, most of them were the media, and they paid the most attention to Italy's No. 9, Balotelli.

"Mario, do you like Brazil?"

Balotelli grinned and didn't answer.

"Mario, will you play in the game against China, will you score?"

Balotelli still smiled.

"I heard that your ex-girlfriend is pregnant, is the baby yours?"

As soon as these words came out, Balotelli stopped laughing, and burst a few Italian words at the reporter, and later everyone learned that translating into Chinese is about your bird.

The reporter likes to arch fire, and someone then asked, "I heard that your biological mother works as a cleaner in the UK, and her salary for a month is not as good as your hour." ”

"Then you should ask her, she abandoned me and made me an orphan."

Ba Shen was sensitive to his own background, and his teammates pushed Balotelli forward, fearing that he would continue to cause trouble, and then the Italian team quickly left the airport. (To be continued.) )
