Round.4: Three Lions England vs World Champions Italy!

June 26.

At 21:00, the sunset sank!

Happel Stadium Vienna!

At this time, the game ...... It's already started!

…… 33rd minute!

“…… gooooooooooooooooooooal！！！ goal！！！ ”

"Whew, unbelievable! Luca Toney !! The ball is in, it's in! The tactics of the Italian team worked!! Donadoni insisted on attacking England on the right flank, and although Gerrard had been trying to come back to help, the youngster Manzioni was blown up by Zambrotta and Cassano combined, and the bad boy roamed on the right side of the box with a clever cross............ Toney relied on his excellent physicality to lean on John Terry's header and Joe Hart was powerless in the face of such a shot!! ”

“…… Incredibly, almost no one was optimistic about the Italian team before the game, and even the newspaper "Milan Sport" was bemoaning the invincibility of the madman Lee...... However, the Azzurri took a surprise lead, and I have to admit that Donadoni's tactics are very resolute, England should be careful, this is a knockout game that may be decided by one goal!! ”

“…… Everything was bad, and Crazy Lee was restrained by Donadonnik in terms of tactics and personnel starters...... Could it be that the curse of Pele, the king of the ball, has been fulfilled? ”

…… In the stands.

Italian fans turned the Stade Happel into a sea of blue, the sound and people like the unchanging waves of the Mediterranean for thousands of years, venting the anger and pride of the world champion after being despised for a thousand years.

Contrasting with this, the high-profile England fans were silent for the moment of the goal, but soon the Three Lions fans bounced back like a spring that had been overwhelmed and made the most fierce counter-attack...... What does a goal count?

Norway once led by two goals, but was it still pulled back?

At this moment, the confrontation between the blue and white fans is more fierce than the game on the field!

…… Time passes!

44th minute!

“…… Cassano! Cassano! Cassano again!! The bad boy's second assist, like a sharp pair of scissors, made lightning through the England backline to help De Rossi get the chance to push the empty net in the box......

“…… 2:0!! Whew, what a disaster!! It was Manzioni who made the mistake and the 20-year-old was broken into the box by Cassano like a stupid telephone pole in the square outside Stamford Bridge...... The madman Lee paid the price for his risky behavior that he had been promoting young people......"

…… In the stands.

At this moment, the fans of Italy fell into a frenzy!

Happiness came so suddenly, so violently, so incredible!

You must know that before this, the team was unanimously looked down upon by the outside public before the game because of its stumble in the group stage, and at that time, even the most hardcore and fanatical fans of the Azzurri team couldn't help but feel a pessimistic mood when facing the all-winning mythical madman Lee and his Three Lions...... But...... Now, actually leading 2:0?

What a wonderful start, the Italians have already seen the Goddess of Victory beckoning!

And England fans are a little dazed!

How is this possible?

[God on the sidelines of the football field] actually lost to the stupid and rotten stupid coach Donadoni in terms of tactical arrangement? God, this is a knockout game, and a single goal can decide whether the team will stay in the knockout round! And with two goals, the gap is like an insurmountable barrier...... What to do?

Could it be that the Three Lions will repeat the mistakes of the Dutch team in the group stage, but when it comes to the crucial moment of the knockout round?

Who will save the England team?

…… Sidelines.

In front of the command of the Italian team!

Donadoni, with gray hair, jumped up in excitement the moment De Rossi scored!

It worked!

Finally it worked!!

A week ago, while watching England play Norway, Donadoni suddenly had the inspiration that if Norway can break down England's right side defence, Italy can do it too?

Since then, in the regular training of the Italian team, Donadoni has been focusing on the practice of attacking on the wing, especially on the left side of the team!

For this reason, Donadoni even spared no effort to put Antonio Cassano, a bad boy who did not play much in the group stage, into the starting list, just to use Cassano's excellent breakthrough ability, imagination, and ball-making ability to attack Manzioni, the "weakness" of the crazy Lee...... And now, the well-planned tactics have finally succeeded!

The spring breeze is proud, and I see all the Chang'an flowers!

This ancient poem from the ancient country of the Far East is the truest portrayal of Donadoni at this moment!

Look at the seemingly invincible figure in front of England's command in the distance, listen to the cheers of the blue fans in the stands of the Happel Stadium like a volcanic eruption, and imagine the countless Italians on the Apennine Peninsula chanting their names in front of the TV and in the bars...... Donadoni had a feeling of fluttering in a trance!

And the other side.

Lee Tong-beom has been standing on the sidelines since the start of the match.

In the eyes of many people, including Li Bing, who was standing not far away, the arrogant figure who didn't even move when the England team lost two goals in a row looked a little depressed, a little lonely, a little tired, and even ...... A little helpless!

…… Eight hours before the start of the game.

Peaceful and beautiful Vienna early morning.

The rising sun casts a soft golden glow on the lush Vienna Forest in the distance, on the Golden Concert Hall, on the St. Stephen's Cathedral, the Hofthin Imperial Palace, the Vienna State Opera and other beautiful buildings...... Vienna Hotel!

Seventeen floors.

Lee Tong-beom's room.

The Hummer Go-Book emitted a hula of gorgeous electronic stadium cheers, and the ever-changing white and blue on the LCD screen flashed with a strange light, reflecting on Lee Tong-beom's nervous face...... Time passes slowly in the freeze!

Five minutes later!

Lao Li's face was like being slapped hard by the soles of his shoes that had been stepped on with shit, and his face couldn't stop twitching!

Because, the first half result of the FM2008 system on the computer screen has appeared, and the Italian team is leading the England team 2:0!

However, there is still a chance to get it back after the score is behind!

Therefore, 2:0 is not the real reason for Lao Li's depression.

The real reason is: in the first half of the system deduction, whether it is the starting list, or the tactical arrangement, or even the team speech, etc., it is not made by Lao Li, but automatically generated by FM2008!

In this case, it is the same as using the [Vacation] function in the FM2008 system.

Everything is carried out by the assistant coach arranged by the FM2008 system, and it has nothing to do with the gamer himself, and there is only one thing that Li Tongfan needs to do, and that is to fuck bear all these results unconditionally!

The reason why there is such a cloud hidden is precisely because of one of the restrictions of the second stage target task [Challenge the World King] of the bull-level system mission [Shining Europe] - Limit: This game can only be extrapolated to half a game!

For Li Tongfan, the only thing to be thankful for is that there is no clear rule on whether to limit the first half or the second half of the system, and there is still a certain amount of choice.

In fact, ten minutes ago, when Li Tongfan opened the Hummer go-book to prepare for the quarterfinals of the European Cup, a reminder box popped up:

"Ding-dong! Gamer Li Tongfan, due to the limitation of the mission objectives in the [Challenge the King of the World] stage, the estimated time of this game is limited to 45 minutes, please select the half that can be deduced:

1 First half.

2 Second half.

At that time, Li Tongfan pondered on the computer for a long time and decided to choose the second half.

The reason is very simple, if the first half is determined to be an inferred 45 minutes, even if you can take the lead in the first half, but you are not afraid of 10,000 in case, once the Italian team achieves a big comeback in the unpredictable second half of the 45 minutes, for Lao Li there is no chance to even find a way to get it back!

So Li Tongfan thought he was very cunning and chose 2!

However, who the fuck knew that the meaning of "the first half is unpredictable" has such a long extension, and even the selection of starters, the selection of formations, and the arrangement of tactical requirements are restricted...... Now, FM2008 clearly shows that England fell behind 0:2 in the first half, and it was Li Tongfan's turn to use the inferred second half to turn the tables. This situation is very similar to the endgame in Chinese chess, it is not that you still have the opportunity to play a pawn or conventional routines such as "standing up the horse", "Shangxiang" and "running man" when you take over, but people have already opened their pockets for you to drill, just leave a mouth, and if you can't find a way to live, then you will die...... Looking at the realistic first half result on the computer screen, Li Tongfan readjusted the lineup and tactics of the England team after thinking carefully, and clicked [Continue Game] after the lecture, and officially started the system deduction of the second half for 45 minutes!

The cheers of the hula and the computer-simulated stadium resounded in the early morning room on the seventeenth floor of the Vienna Hotel, and the blue-white light on the LCD screen shone again...... Shortly after the start of the second half, the blue light on the screen suddenly flashed wildly!

The computer-simulated synthesized sound also broke out with a small **!

Li Tongfan trembled in his heart...... Uncle's!

In the 47th minute of the second half, Italy scored again!

AC Milan brain Andrea Pirlo unleashed an unbelievable free-kick that once again penetrated Joe Hart's England goal...... 0：3！！

…… Eight hours later.

Evening.

Happel Stadium Vienna!

Forcing French referee Styner to blow the whistle at the end of the first half, the last match of the quarterfinals of Euro 2008 between England and Italy, the last World Cup champion Italy temporarily led 2:0!

“…… This scene was something that no one expected before the game, the Three Lions of the madman Lee actually fell behind by two goals after 45 minutes, and the players of the England team were far inferior to their opponents in terms of the scene, the fighting spirit and the state of the players......

"How similar the scene is, England's performance is simply a replica of the Orange team Netherlands a day ago, the two teams that set off an offensive storm in the group stage are like deflated balls after entering the knockout round, and even worse than the Dutch team is that the Three Lions have now conceded two goals, you must know that the Italian team is not a Norwegian team, facing the Italian team known for their reinforced concrete defense, it is not easy for the madman Lee to pull it back......"

“…… What's going on? England suddenly seemed like a different team? And even the madman Lee, who has always been invincible in terms of on-the-spot command and tactical changes, did not make even a single effort in the first half for forty-five minutes......"

As soon as the whistle sounded, commentators from all over the world exclaimed.

British commentator Sester was so anxious that he almost twisted off a few strands of beard that he regarded as his life, and his partner Gary Lineker was no better, the former England famous center forward frowned as if his wife and daughter had eloped with someone else, and muttered back and forth: "No, no...... It's absolutely not going to work, it has to be changed, it's going to have to be changed......"

However, Lineker obviously did not have the slightest opinion on how to change, and the game revealed this strange atmosphere from the beginning...... The commentators are so anxious, let alone ordinary fans!

…… Newcastle, England!

in the bar.

The atmosphere was silent and oppressive.

Bang!!!

John Newton, a young bus driver, threw his head up and drank a 500-milliliter glass of dark beer in his hand, slammed the empty glass on the table, opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say it...... Fat David, bald Tom ...... Everyone is drinking beer with their heads down!

0：2！

Italy's two goals are like two heavy mountains, overwhelming everyone, this is a knockout game, conceding two goals at half time is an absolute disaster!

Heavy disaster!

Terrible disaster!

Could it be that the England team, which has borne the humiliation for more than 40 years, finally sees the slightest hope of becoming the champion be dashed in the most unacceptable way?

It was at this time...... Bang!

Another loud bang of beer bottles slamming on the table!

"Isn't it just two balls, what are you afraid of?" Beside Newton, a blonde woman with a delicate face suddenly stood up, and the small freckles on the tip of her nose wrinkled slightly:

"Hey, guys, what? Didn't you say that the head coach called the rice bucket was very good? Isn't he called the God of the Football Field? Since it's God, can two balls beat him? Hmph, I usually talk about Mr. Rice Bucket on my lips, and I say how much I adore him, but now? As Newcastle natives, you actually gave up on Mr. Rice Bucket and betrayed him when he needed support the most? ”

The words were like a loud slap in the face, and a group of bare-chested and muscular men in the bar where they asked were flushed and embarrassed.

Everyone knows this blonde woman, it is none other than John Newton's new wife, Neri!

More than a month ago, she was just a ball blind who didn't know anything about football, she spoke softly, and even a little shy when there were many people...... However, because of Newton's infinite love for football, Nelly was gradually assimilated and gradually became interested in football!

As of today, this newlywed young woman with cute little freckles on the tip of her nose finally understands what is called offside and what foul is...... Counting, she knew that the madman Li had only been around for 20 days, and she hadn't even watched any of the games that the madman Li had commanded, but ...... However, Niri, who is such a complete pseudo-fan, is more sober than these old fans in the bar who have lived for most of their lives, and they are supporters of Lee, who claims to be the most loyal madman in the world...... Extremely determined to cast her unreserved trust in the man she was not familiar with!

Word by word, like the whip of judgment in myths and legends, it beat and slapped the hearts of Oh Angzi David and others mercilessly, making them ashamed and embarrassed...... Yes, if even the madman Lee can't believe it, who else can England trust?

John Newton stood up suddenly, reached out to take his wife's little hand, and sang softly, a little inexplicably but firmly:

"There is only one rice bucket in the world, and you are our madman who brings us victory...... You are full of courage to crush all enemies...... You are fearless and unstoppable...... Forward, England! Go ahead, our madman!! Go forward and bring us the victory of the Chinese victory rice bucket!! ”

Song of the Maniac!!

This song of the madman Li pioneered by Real Madrid is familiar and covered by many English fans after Li Tongfan came to England, because it represents a myth and a legend!

It also represents an unconditional trust!

Gradually, in the bar, the fat man Davy, the bald man Tom ...... Everyone sang along with Newton...... The Newcastle man got up from his seat, filled his glass with beer, and stared at the bar's huge TV screen, his voice getting louder and louder, like a roaring war drum, sweeping away the dreary atmosphere in the pub...... "You are our madman and bring us victory...... Unstoppable and courageous ......"

And in the British Isles, it is not only this pub, only Newcastle people, choose to sing this song at this moment, and England National Television chose to broadcast a group of classic games since Crazy Lee became manager for fifteen minutes at halftime!

Stamford Bridge's middle finger...... Middle finger at Old Trafford...... San Siro's middle finger...... Anfield's middle finger...... What's even more coincidental is that the background music that the broadcaster acknowledged for this wonderful and arrogant scene is "Song of the Madman". Playing this simple and boring tune repeatedly, the background court on the TV screen is constantly changing and shining, and what remains unchanged is the thin back of the 1.75-meter-tall middle finger, which is imposing and arrogant...... At this moment, a somewhat thin middle finger unbelievably carried the weight of all the hopes and dreams of the British Empire!

Madman, please bring us victory!

…… Time passes.

Fifteen minutes later!

Happel Stadium, Vienna.

The French referee raised his hands and blew the whistle for the start of the second half!

England kick off and Wayne Rooney knocks a long ball back to goalkeeper Joe Hart...... Then, like enemies of eternal fate, blue and white fought together mercilessly once again!

In the stands.

The Italian fans who led the score were like chicken blood, dog blood, duck blood and strong pills, and the tone of their wanton chanting was full of the smell of being able to get rid of it, while the English fans at the Happel Stadium and their compatriots at home took a surprisingly consistent behavior:

“…… There is only one rice bucket in the world, and you are our madman...... You are full of courage to crush all enemies...... You are unstoppable...... Advance! Advance!! Advance!!! ”

The uniform tone, revealing firmness and tragedy, gradually ...... Gradually, it overshadowed the Italian fans who were fighting separately and becoming more and more proud!

……“…… It's a touching scene! When the team was down by a big score, the English fans sang a crazy song in the stands! Indeed, the only thing the English could rely on was the miraculous madman Lee...... It is no exaggeration to say that if the madman Lee can successfully reverse at today's Happel Stadium, then the person represented by Li Tongfan will forever become the god of the British Isles! ”

“…… At the beginning of the second half, [God on the sidelines of football] finally made a change to the tactics of the England team, and actually replaced three players in one go......"

“…… Michael Owen, who returned from injury, replaced Pete Crouch and formed a double fast forward with Wayne Rooney, with right midfielder Steven Gerrard moving to the middle as the team's forward ......"

“…… Ashley Young replaced Joe Cole, and Ashley Young supported England with extremely fast wings, David Beckham in the midfield position, and Gareth Barry replaced Manzioni, a teenager who made frequent mistakes in the first half, God, this little guy is finally out! ”

…… on the field.

At the beginning of the second half, although the players were changed, the tactical performance of the England team was no different from the mountain half on the surface, and it was still the initiative to attack, and the two wings composed of Downing and Ashley Young frequently crossed positions and sprinted back and forth, trying to press the Italian team's attack and gain an advantage on the field.

Sidelines.

Donadoni sat in the command seat and watched the game on the field, his face full of confusion.

How is it still such a tactic?

Didn't the madman Lee understand that it was precisely because of the England team's aggressive tactics in the first half that Italy's defensive counterattack seized the opportunity to counterattack twice?

Don't see it? Absolutely not!

What kind of character is Crazy Lee?

You must know that it is normal for a coach to be unbeaten in three or four games in a row, and it is not impossible to be unbeaten in nine or ten games, but ...... However, in addition to the warm-up match, the main game has unbelievably maintained a record of winning hundreds of games for two years of coaching, which is definitely a great time!

And how can a manager who has set a record of "ancient and modern" not see such a simple problem?

Crazy man, what kind of tricks are you playing?

Although the Italian team still has a solid two-goal lead, Donadoni is a bit like an ant on a hot pan, and he can't figure out the intentions of the madman Lee, which means that the Italian team may be crushed by the sudden "middle finger curse" at any time...... The second watch was at half past eleven. The fever has subsided a little, and finally I am not confused!
