Chapter 617: Prophecy Emperor Squidward Brother Paul
readx;
Portugal's defeat marks the top 8 of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, and it also means that C-Ronaldo, one of the new generation of football's [Four Kings], will have to bid farewell to the World Cup. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info For his Portuguese superstar, the result is so brutal that so far, apart from himself, the other 'big three' Juan Mata, Kaka and Messi remain in South Africa, and they have qualified to challenge for the name of a unique king in a new era.
On July 4th, the world knew the names of the top eight of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, and the next quarter-final situation was immediately produced at the moment when the whistle blew at the end of the last quarter-finals - [Orange Army] Netherlands team vs [Samba Army] Brazil team!!
South American powerhouse Uruguay vs [Three Lions] England!!
[Blue and White Army] Argentina vs [German Tank] German team!!
【Matador Army】Spanish team vs South American traditional powerhouse Paraguay team!!
According to the schedule, July 5 is a temporary break for one day, and the semi-finals will officially start on July 6, and the match between the Netherlands and Brazil will be played on the same day, from 6 to 9, every day, eight teams will fight for the top 4 places by catching each other.
After the matchup table was clear, the major European media began to eagerly re-evaluate the fate of each team - in the first matchup, the young coach Dunga's [Samba Army] showed a dominant level in the previous games, from the group stage to the quarterfinals, the state of each game remained quite stable, including the Spanish "As", Italy's "Milan Sport", Germany's "Bild", "Kicker" and other 18 famous European sports media, They are more optimistic that Brazil can beat the Netherlands to get a place in the last four.
In the second game, England were clearly much stronger than Uruguay. The Three Lions started low and went high, with a mediocre first two games of the group stage, but have maintained a devastated streak from the third game onwards. Uruguay will be hoping for an upset in their attacking duo of Diego Forlan and Luis Suarez. In addition, the Uruguayan media also turned up an old story to cheer for - in the 09 qualifiers, the madman Lee predicted that the Uruguayan team would be able to play in the top four, which is also good news for them. Because there is no direct evidence, at least yet, that Lee's mouth is as powerful as Pele, the Brazilian soccer king.
The third match between Argentina and Germany was the most uncertain game for many [Prophecy Emperors], if there were not so many surprises, if the coach of the [Blue and White Army] Maniac Lee could still stand on the sidelines and direct the game...... Well, perhaps most fans and media will vote for Argentina, but a red card in the quarterfinals instantly made the future of the Pampas Eagles uncertain.
For the Argentine team, there is an even worse thing - since the start of the World Cup in South Africa, the magical octopus brother Paul, who has a 100% prediction rate, predicts that Germany will win this encounter. Considering the unpredictable power of Squidward, the occurrence of this incident directly affected the judgment of the media and fans, and even the world's major sports betting companies readjusted the odds of winning the championship after Squidward Paul made a prediction, and the odds of the Argentine team instantly plummeted from the first to the fifth.
In the last game between Spain and Paraguay, there was not much suspense, and many people chose to support the [Matador Army], which in Zidane's mouth "represents the current direction of football development" The team has maintained an absolutely stable state since the defeat in the first game, and the core players Xavi, Iniesta and the striker David Villa are in such a state that it is difficult to stop.
The final ranking of the odds stick for winning the championship by Bwin, a well-known sports betting company in the European group, also represents the optimism of most of the media, fans, football experts and senior celebrities in world football about the future of each team - Brazil is in first place at odds of 2.30.
Spain is second at odds of 5.00.
England are third at odds of 7.50.
Germany are fourth at odds of 8.00.
Argentina is fifth at odds of 10.00.
The Netherlands are sixth at odds of 15.00.
Uruguay are seventh at odds of 126.00.
Paraguay is eighth at odds of 1,300.
………… HPC Sports Center.
Argentina are playing an intra-team match.
Sidelines.
Maradona, the acting head coach of the first team, had a sinking face. Around him, the expressions on the faces of Li Bing, Redondo, Kempes, and Veron were also full of incredulity and solemnity...... There's a rivalry going on on the training ground.
The two sides of the game, one side is Maradona and other seven-man coaching staff members and the Argentine senior team, while the other side is Li Tongfan and the 21-year-old youth team.
This is a closed intra-team confrontation.
An hour ago, when Lee Tong-beom made this proposal with a grin, almost everyone thought that there would be absolutely no problem for the senior team to achieve a victory, after all, the difference in strength and body between the two sides was too great...... However, when the game was about to play 60 minutes, the reality was a blow to the confident Maradona - the senior team drew 3-3 with the under-21 team.
Li Tongfan stood on the sidelines and made timely tactical adjustments and formation changes, so that the youth team under the age of 21 almost completely restrained the big stars of the senior team, if it weren't for the strength of the two sides is indeed too far apart, maybe the little guys have taken the lead now.
This result made Maradona depressed and wanted to vomit blood, and there was a sense of aggrieved that he was full of strength but just didn't go out.
The same is true for the other coaches.
What is happening on the training pitch is nothing short of strange - there are no obvious mistakes in the tactics of the senior team, the attack is very sharp, and the players are in very good shape...... However, the tactical changes of the under-21 team can always be predicted and restrained one step in advance, so that the actual effect of the offensive organized by the senior team stars is often greatly reduced. And when the youth team is attacking, they can always catch the defensive flaws of the senior team in an instant, and the success rate is very high!
Li Tongfan has been standing on the sidelines, shouting loudly to command the offensive and defensive rhythm of the youth team under the age of 21, without the shouts and boos of thousands of fans, without the noisy volume of the overwhelming 'woo woo zula', his voice can be transmitted to the ears of every youth team player under the age of 21 at close range, which makes him quite handy to command.
And because of the personal command of the idol madman Lee, the players of the youth team played very excitedly, exerting 200% of their strength, and they all wanted to impress the [godfather of young players], in order to win the favor of Li Tongfan and win an opportunity for his future career.
The training match is conducted according to the schedule and format of the official competition.
After 90 minutes, the youth team and the senior team played to a 5:5 draw, and if it weren't for Messi, the king of Barcelona, who scored a stunning dribble at the last moment, the senior team would even be in danger of losing.
After the game, Li Tongfan laughed and high-fived the players of the youth team to celebrate, then looked at Maradona and others with a smile, turned around and walked away, went straight out of the gate of the HPC Sports Center, got in the car and didn't know where to go.
The players who were sweating profusely were dismissed and went back to shower and change clothes.
The Maladuna people stayed on the sidelines of the training ground with ugly faces.
The seven people didn't know what to say for a while, and they finally understood at this moment that the reason why the madman Li wanted to hold such a training match today was not to train players or practice tactics, but to test the command ability of the seven of them in the game.
It was a passing exam, but, judging by the results, they didn't pass!
For the first time, several people experienced that a head coach's decision-making ability for the game can be brought into full play! Li Tongfan's shouts and shouts still resounded in their ears over and over again at this moment, and the aftermath was endless.
This game has brought them too much shock.
Before that, they were colleagues with Li Tongfan, standing in front of the same command seat as him, watching the Argentine team sweep every opponent like chopping melons and vegetables, watching the opponent's face turn gray and black, and it was natural that it was so simple to win...... And it wasn't until this moment that they felt for the first time what a terrifying thing it was to be an opponent with a guy like Crazy Lee, even if it was just an ordinary training match within the team, Crazy Li could also make them deeply feel the feeling of being helpless and struggling by the opponents of the Argentine team such as Xu Dingmao, Aguirre, and Rehhagel in the previous game!
A feeling that will last a lifetime.
Ma Dashuai's mouth opened and opened, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't say it, he waved his hand to the 6 partners next to him, turned to leave, his expression was full of frustration...... The remaining six people, you look at me, I look at you, and their faces are also not very good-looking.
If a good coach is enough to narrow the gap in strength to such an exaggerated level, what kind of insurmountable difficulties will the Argentine team encounter in the quarter-finals of the 8-man team in July against an experienced opponent like [Tactician] Loew?
You must know that although Loew's ability is not as exaggerated as the madman Lee, the strength of the German team is not many times stronger than the strength of the Argentine under-21 youth team!
Several people shook their heads and left the training ground full of concern.
Assistant coach Li Bing looked at Maradona's back a little worriedly, afraid that the previously confident football king would be depressed.................. Two hours later, Li Tongfan arrived at Johannesburg International Airport in South Africa.
Flights from Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, to South Africa also arrived here at the same time, and the huge silver-white plane stopped in the terminal, and a group of thirteen, fourteen or five-year-old children, with curious looks, walked out of the passenger passage excitedly.
Walking in the forefront and leading the children is Li Tongfan's most loyal assistant - [Dog-headed Military Division] Tolosi Tang. He saw Li Tongfan standing at the pick-up gate from afar, waved his hand vigorously, and with the assistance of the accompanying staff, he quickly came to him with the children.
"Hey, Don, it's a pleasure to see you!"
Tolosi-Tang stretched out his hand to shake hands with Li Tongfan, who knew that Lao Li directly gave him a warm bear hug, and then squeezed his eyes: "Get in the car and talk about it!" ”
Ten minutes later.
The group got on the bus that had been arranged long ago and slowly drove towards the city of Pretoria.
