Chapter 1202: A Fateful Duel
"It's 5 p.m. Beijing time, and there are still 12 hours before the 2014 World Cup final in Brazil, and I'm very excited because in 12 hours, our national team will be competing for the championship at the Maracana Stadium, the holy land of football!"
Far away in Brazil, when people are still in a deep sleep, on the other side of the world, the CCAV-5 is already building momentum for the World Cup final.
But there is no way around it, China is 11 hours faster than Brazil.
Those Chinese fans who have no financial foundation or send them back to Brazil can only wait in front of the TV and follow the dynamics of the Chinese team in Brazil.
Many fans were disgusted by CCTV's opening remarks, but fortunately, it didn't take long to switch to the footage of Chinese players preparing for the game.
Although this report has been broadcast for several hours and more than ten hours, it is not tiring of watching it for excited fans.
At the same time, the voice of front-line reporter Dong Na also came from the TV: "...... Now we see the training footage of the Chinese team the day before the game, but we only have 15 minutes of shooting time, because the Chinese team will have technical and tactical drills to make final preparations for the World Cup final! ”
It is not difficult to hear the pride in the tone of reporter Donna.
After listening to Donna's introduction, the camera switches to the players who are doing warm-up training.
The camera switches from Ai Luo, Gao Lin, Hao Junmin, Zhang Xizhe, Wu Xi and others one after another, and gives close-ups of their faces one by one. 、
From their facial expressions, it is easy to spot...... With a smile on his face, he looked like he was in the final...... Ambition is bound to win.
"Now we are fortunate to have Captain Iroh for an interview with us." After a while, after the warm-up, Dong Na came to the captain of the Chinese team, Ailuo, and handed the microphone in her hand: "Tomorrow at four o'clock in the afternoon, the final of this World Cup will be held at the Maracanã Stadium. ”
Facing the camera, Iroh winked funny, and smiled, "Actually...... Everyone already knows ...... I'm the king of champions! ”
After saying that, Iroh also made a bodybuilder gesture to show off his muscles.
His actions naturally attracted the attention of other CCTV colleagues and envied them.
Some fans sitting in front of the TV only think that in his career, as long as he has participated in the finals, he has won all the championships, from 2005 to 2014.
That's quite an achievement!
Or rather, a miracle!
Those pseudo-fans also have a bottom in their hearts and are full of confidence in the next finals.
It is worth mentioning that those fans who are full of confidence in the Chinese team also flock to the bookmaker's business premises......

At 8 o'clock in the morning local time in Brazil, that is, at 9 o'clock in the evening Beijing time, all the members of the Chinese team had a rich and nutritious breakfast at the hotel to prepare for the final that started at 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
Originally, according to the plan of the Chinese team, they wanted to go to the Maracanã Stadium for one last time before the start of the final.
But the plan could not keep up with the changes, and Guardiola temporarily adjusted the plan to all the players of the Chinese team to go to the gym provided by the hotel to do aerobic exercise after digesting a nutritious breakfast.
Of course, it's not a lot of exercise, it's just a way for the players to feel their own strength.
Because in the next finals, there will definitely be no less physical confrontation, but there will be frequent physical confrontation.
Feeling the strength of the body before the game is conducive to the performance of the final.
The same is true of the Argentine arrangement.
At the same time, there were almost six hours to go before the start of the final, and the outside of the Maracanã Stadium was basically surrounded by fans from both sides of the final.
The Brazilian police were well prepared, and the police officers were also awakened one by one, for fear that the fans of both sides would clash before the start of the final, which would affect the normal development of the final.
During this time period, it is naturally indispensable to follow up and report by the media.
The frenzied atmosphere before the game is easy to attract the attention of fans.
So in the ocean of people, it is easy to see the scene of holding a camera and interviewing passers-by.
Except for a small number of Brazilian fans and tourists from other countries, there are basically only Chinese fans or Argentine fans left.
As a well-known media in China, whether it is a physical TV station or an online TV station, they have sent a large number of interview teams, so at this time before the game, they can be seen interviewing fans around the stadium everywhere.
Of course, the most interviewed fans are definitely Chinese fans.
After all, this time is more sensitive, but I don't rule out interviewing Argentine fans.
You must know that it is the 21st century, the media has the freedom of interviews, and many fans have the dream of making headlines, so there are not a few Argentine fans interviewed by Chinese media.

There are about four hours to go, that is, 12 noon Brazilian time, and although the weather is very hot during this time period, it does not affect the enthusiasm of the fans in the slightest, but tends to become more and more excited.
Indeed, the gold content of the World Cup final is known to any fan, especially if the team in the final has a place in its own national team, let alone it.
So it's easy to see those fanatical Chinese fans and Argentine fans who have their faces painted with the national flag.
At this time, the players on both sides of the game are eating at their respective hotels to eat more nutrients for the next game.
However, these shots could not be taken, and both teams were made to the public before the game.
In this regard, those media who follow the World Cup have no choice but to broadcast the VCR provided by FIFA.
In order to attract greater attention, FIFA has also made great efforts to expand FIFA's influence.
China and Argentina reached the World Cup final, and there is not much to see with the two teams alone, so the FIFA staff focused on the captains of both sides.
"A battle of fate!"
This is the title that FIFA has set for this match.
FIFA can be described as well-intentioned, from 2005 to the present, all the classic shots in the duel between Iello and Messi have been selected, among which the 2005 World Youth Championship final in the Netherlands, the semi-finals of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, and the 1/4 finals of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa are key clipping shots, which make fans too addicted to watching it.
Time flies, two hours pass in the blink of an eye, which means that there are only two hours left until the start of the final.
The broadcaster responsible for the broadcast of the World Cup final in Brazil cut in and gave an update on the preparations for the final - the players of both sides set off from the lobby of their respective hotels and walked to the bus parked at the door.
The finals are finally coming!
