Chapter 601: The Great Emperor of His Youth
readx;
Rehhagel's hand was heavily clasped with that of the madman Lee. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
At this moment, the already old [Otto the Great] didn't know why his heart was light.
In 2008, after losing to the madman Lee in the European Cup, he was very unconvinced, and even just now, before referee Yuichi Nishimura blew the whistle for the end of the game, Rehhagel's heart was still full of regret for the defeat of the game...... However, when he shook hands with the madman Lee, Rehhagel suddenly felt a burst of relief!
The race is over, and he is 73 years old, an age that should have been peaceful in his old age a long time ago.
And as a football head coach, Rehhagel's body has written countless people unattainable brilliance in their lifetimes, even if it is two consecutive losses to the madman Lee, it doesn't matter, after this game, Rehhagel decided to end his domination of the Greek team!
A 73-year-old man who doesn't know how many days he has left in his life, he should try to enjoy life without football!
Rehhagel held Li Tongfan's hand and shook it heavily!
[Otto the Great] felt that he was holding the hand of this young man, and he suddenly felt emotion at this moment, as if time had been reversed in a trance, looking at the invincible madman Li in front of him, it was like seeing the young and arrogant self in his youth!
Time flies, taking away time and miracles!
The miracle that belongs to him Rehhagel, today, finally comes to an end!
"Your time has begun, young man, good luck!"
Rehhagel gently patted Li Tongfan on the shoulder, as if talking to himself, and then, without looking at the reporters gathered around him, he turned around and disappeared into the players' tunnel...... Li Tongfan stood in place.
Watching Rehhagel's back finally disappear, I don't know what I'm thinking, is this really the end of a mythical era?
At the moment, the hustle and bustle in the stadium is at its peak.
The Argentine fans were frantically celebrating their victory, while the Greek fans comforted their heroes with a standing ovation, and the huge sound waves, like the surging tide in the ocean, surrounded Li Tongfan tightly!
This is his shining moment!
However, at this time, I don't know why, Li Tongfan only has that back in his heart...... That's the back of a generation of emperors!
………… Shortly after Argentina defeated the former European champion Greece 4:1, at the Durban Stadium, the South Korean team drew 2:2 with the [African Eagles] Nigeria team after 90 minutes of fierce battle - in the first half, Nigeria Ulce scored in the 12th minute, and the South Korean team quickly relied on the header of defender Lee Jung-so and striker Park Joo-yong directly scored a free kick to overtake 2:1, and Nigeria center Yakubu equalized on penalties in the 69th minute...... Each team scores 1 point.
After this battle, the final ranking of Group B has finally lifted the veil of mystery - the [Blue and White Army] Argentina team won all three games and accumulated 9 points, unstoppable, and advanced to the round of 16 as the first place in Group B!
【Asian Red Devils】The South Korean team won one win and one draw and one loss in three games, accumulated 4 points, ranked second in the group, won another promotion place, and finally escaped lucky!
The Greek team has three points, one win and two losses, ranking third in the group.
[African Eagles] Nisilia has three games, two losses and one draw, accumulating 1 point, and was at the bottom of the group in Group B.
After all the matches in Group B, people didn't have time to digest the result, and soon, fans and media around the world were shocked by a sudden bombshell news - [Otto the Great] Rehhagel, who ruled the gods of Olympia for nine years, finally announced at the post-match press conference that he would not renew his contract with the Greek Football Association and took the initiative to end his rule in Greece!
This time, he will end his coaching career!
Soon, the Greek Football Federation paid the highest tribute to the legendary coach who once led the team to the European Championship like a fairytale, thanked Rehhagel for bringing the pinnacle glory to Greece, and at the same time, announced Fernando Santos as the team's new manager!
The European media exclaimed and lamented -- "The Rehhagel era of the Greek team is over"
Kaiserslautern and Greece, the end of the era of Otto the Great
"The Legend Ends in 2010"
"The Battle of the Historical Surname, the First Man to Miracle After the Achievement of the Madman Lee Rehhagel"
Celebrities and elders have also expressed their regrets and blessings for the loss of this mythical figure - UEFA President Michel Platini: "In the past era, he was one of the best coaches in football...... It's really hard to believe that in the blink of an eye, he has actually retired......"
Bremen manager Schaaf: "He is one of the most famous figures in the history of the team...... My grades are far inferior to his......"
Kaiserslautern used the entire official website page to thank the legendary coach for the glorious glory brought by the former football club ...... the prestige of [Otto the Great], and once again resounded in a special way across the Europa continent!
Rehhagel's life is undoubtedly a legendary one.
He has created countless miracles in small teams such as Kaiserslautern and Greece, and he has also planted a lot of problems in super giants such as Bayern...... God destined that he seems to be born only to lead a grassroots team to create a dark horse myth, and in the sense of real football, he is indeed an out-and-out miracle creator, worthy of being remembered by the entire world football community!
Not to mention, in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, which has ended, the Greek team he led was also the first team to break through the door of the Argentine team of Crazy Lee, the first team to lead the blue and white team for a full half, the first team to let the [God of football fieldside] madman Lee stand on the sidelines and frown tightly for 45 minutes, and the first team to almost force the Argentine team to the cliff!
In fact, Rehhagel almost succeeded!
Even the madman Li himself admitted frankly at the post-match press conference: "In fact, until halftime, I didn't come up with a good solution, and he put a lot of pressure on me...... However, today, luck doesn't seem to be on the side of the Greek team, otherwise, I think everyone here will have a super big news that can't wait to announce to the world - the crazy Lee has finally lost! ”
The reporters laughed, and indeed, that's what they thought at the time.
………… Rehhagel's iron bucket formation makes it no longer easy for the crazy Li's Argentine team to win, this phenomenon has caused many people to think deeply, especially the Mexican team that has been confirmed to meet Argentina in the round of 16 knockout round, like grabbing a life-saving straw, and the Mexican media did not forget to remind coach Aguirre - "Defensive counterattack is the only key to defeating Argentina"
"The Greek team lost in luck, Mexico had better luck than the Greeks"
"Sticking to a draw + penalty shootout, the only way to destroy the madman Lee"
In fact, not only the Mexican team, but also many teams that are determined to impact the Hercules Cup have begun to study the Greeks' methods of dealing with the madman Lee.
Before you know it, how to stop and deal with the madman Li has become a topic of conversation in the whole world!
Of course, the World Cup has to go on!
…… June 25th.
The two matches in Group C kicked off.
The first game - [Three Lions] England team, at the Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth, faced the last opponent of the group, Slovenia!
Capello's team did not perform well in the previous two games, but in the last game against Algeria, they played a super 3:3 reversal and equalization - especially in the situation of 0:3 down, after replacing [Beast] and [Angel] in the second half, the Three Lions showed strong attacking power, which made many people feel cold, and Capello himself claimed to the media that he had found the best team of the team!
Sure enough, in this game, Capello learned the lessons of the previous two games and changed the starting line-up that he had been sticking to until then - the original risky first choice - and Manchester United number one Wayne Rooney was on the bench.
He was replaced by Andy Carroll and Angel Niccolas Gigi also got a start...... The two and [Lightning Killer] Michael Owen form England's new attacking trident!
"It's a purely 'Newcastle made' front!!"
Commentator Sester lamented: "The goalkeeper is Joe Hart, who has finally returned from injury, with a back four of Glen Johnson, John Terry and Steven Taylor, and a midfield of three Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard and Alan Smith...... Now this England team on the field is branded with a clear madman Lee brand! ”
Gary Lineker laughed: "It doesn't matter who starts as long as they can help the team win, after all, they are all English players!" ”
The competition officially starts at 16:00 local time.
England kick off first.
Capello's choice of 4-3-3 formation was a bit risky, and if the Three Lions couldn't win this game, they were even in danger of being eliminated, which was a real battle of life and death in every way!
However, everyone's doubts were dispelled in the 6th minute of the game.
Capello's tactics of forcing the middle were successful - Frank Lampard passed a high ball at the back, [Storm] Andy Carroll fought for the top to do it, Alan Smith met the ball at the edge of the penalty area and opened fire on the goal, in the face of a cannonball-like football, Slovenian goalkeeper Handanovic pounced on the ball, and [Lightning Killer] Owen made a follow-up shot...... 1:0!!
England got off to a perfect start.
In the broadcast footage, the Italian Capello stood on the sidelines and clenched his fists fiercely, his excitement was overflowing, and he almost stretched out a V-shaped gesture and shouted 'Oye'!
England showed their devastating attacking ability in the next game, and Slovenia simply could not adapt to the fast pace of the Three Lions, and the only thing they could do in the face of their opponents' stormy attack was to fall...... Fall down...... Fall down...... In the face of the opponent's bang, he fell again and again!
13th minute.
【Lightning Killer】Michael Owen counterattacked in a long-distance run and succeeded, a fatal blow, 2:0!!
24th minute.
Nicolas Gigi receives a corner kick from Frank Lampard, is covered by Carroll, and then nods the hammer to score, 3:0!
43rd minute.
Andy Carroll, who has been making wedding clothes for others, showed his own violent aesthetics - he relied on his strong body to successfully counter-attack at the front of the big penalty area, and he scored with violence...... 56th minute.
Alan Smith Heavy Artillery ...... 72nd minute.
Frank Lampard takes a powerful free-kick...... 89th minute.
Gerrard scored from great distance...... When the referee blew the whistle for the final end of the game, the Slovenian fans in the stands of the Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth finally broke free from the nightmare in tears!
7:0!!
No one would have thought that the England team, which had stumbled in the first two games, would suddenly feel like a different team, like a tiger descending an unstoppable mountain...... You know, Slovenian fans are still expecting their team to create a miracle and defeat the previously weak England team to advance to the round of 16!
The Three Lions have finally awakened!
The result of the game also made the world media exclaim - "England set off another goal, and the Three Lions in the post-mad Lee era are crazy"
"Capello, World War I can compare to the madman Lee two years ago"
England's big win, Newcastle Made
"The Three Lions Set Off the Storm of Youth"
"Rooney deserves to sit on the bench, and the two young kings of Newcastle finally get a chance"
…… The super victory of the England team is another 7:0 after the Argentine team swept the South Korean team 7:0 and the Portuguese team swept the North Korean team 7:0.
And the [Three Lions] also relied on this devastating goal performance, and the position in the odds list turned sharply, climbing to the second place, second only to the Argentine team of Crazy Lee!
Soon, another match in Group C also had a result, and the United States team relied on captain Donovan's stoppage-time strike to jump from the brink of elimination to second place in the group stage, and won another precious place to advance to the round of 16!
Group C matches are all over, England and the United States team have 5 points, however, the former relied on winning goals to sit on the first place in the group, the United States team second, while Slovenia has 4 points in three games, one win, one draw and one loss, and [African Fox] Algeria has 1 point in three games, two losses and one draw, and the two were eliminated!
…… 26 said.
Group D begins.
The German team, which was in a critical situation, was absent from the red card of Miroslav Klose, the core of the striker, and relied on the long-range shot played by the midfielder Ozil in the second half to defeat the Ghana team 1:0.
On the other field, the [Australian Kangaroos] Australian team relied on the goals of Cahill and Hoffman to defeat Serbia with Vidic and Ivanovic 2:1!
After two battles, the semi-finals of Group D were divided into male and female - [Erman Exhibition] The German team won two wins and one loss in three games, ranked first in the group with 6 points, and advanced to the top 16.
Although the Ghana team lost to the German team, they scored three more goals than Australia, which had four points, and won the second place in the group, and also became the first African team to qualify for the World Cup on the African Continent!
Australia came in third.
Serbia has three games, two losses and one win, and has three points, and is at the bottom of the group.
…… As the game progressed day by day, the cruelty of the World Cup was gradually revealed, and one team after another said goodbye to the World Cup with tears!
