July 9 is destined to be a day of rising global temperatures, as the World Cup finals are about to begin. The Olympic Stadium in Berlin has become the hottest place in the world, and it will determine the champion of this World Cup.

198 TV stations are broadcasting live broadcasts, and various languages are transmitted to the whole world through satellite transmission, telling fans all over the world about every move that happened at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin. Different mouths are aimed at the microphone, and the news obtained in the past two days will be told to the fans in front of the TV:

"Italy lined up with a 451 formation, goalkeeper: Gianluigi Buffon; The four defenders were: Zambrotta, Materazzi, captain Cannavaro, Grosso; The five midfielders are: Camorane, Gattuso, Pirlo, Perrotta, Totti; The only striker is: Toney. ”

"The French team lined up with a 442 formation, goalkeeper Butters; The four defenders are: Sagnol, Thuram, Galla, Abidal; The four midfielders are: Vieira, Makelele, Franck Franchi, Zidane; The two strikers are: Henry, Tang Jue. ”

"Both teams maintained their knockout stage formations. In terms of formation, the French team has two strikers, which shows that they are determined to win the title. The return of Makelele has made France's defense more stable, and the return of Don has made France's attack more powerful! ”

"Italy have been in good form at the tournament and tonight they will be in a great final under Lippi for fans all over the world. Tough Italians always surprise people! ”

"Who will lift the Hercules Cup in Berlin, the capital of Germany? France or Italy? That's a problem! But at least from the historical record, the French team, who were not favored before the game, clearly had the advantage. You have to know the road from 1978 onwards. The Italians have never tasted victory in France in 28 years.

What's more, in Euro 2000, the French defeated Italy in a dramatic final to become the 'double champions'. So, tonight, whether the Italians can break the 'fatalism' and whether the good fortune of the French can continue, the world is looking forward to the moment when the mystery will be revealed. ”

"The Italian and French teams have met 32 times before. Italy has an absolute advantage with 17 wins, 8 draws and 7 losses; But France since 1978. After Argentina lost 2-1 to Italy in the World Cup, France maintained an unbeaten record against Italy in the last six meetings between the two sides in the following 28 years.

Six years ago, in the European Championship final, France and Italy had 11 players in their squad. They are still in their respective teams - 7 from France. Butters, Thuram, Vieira, Zidane, Thierry, Wiltord, Trezeguet; 3 people from Italy. Cannavaro, Totti, Piero. ”

"Talking about 'fate' is somewhat of a conspiracy theory, but the topic of 'fate' in this year's World Cup really can't be avoided. And from the point of view of 'fate'. So far, France and Italy, who have reached the final, are the beneficiaries.

As well as extending their unbeaten run against Portugal, France's elimination of Brazil also seemed 'natural', as they were unbeaten against Brazil in major tournaments after the 1958 World Cup. Italy's elimination of Germany also extended their unbeaten record against Germany in the World Cup to five. ”

"When two teams that have benefited from tradition meet in the final, the question will be whether to perpetuate or break fate. From the Italian team's point of view, only by breaking the "fate" can they win the Gold Cup for the fourth time. In the 1978 World Cup in Mexico, with the goal of the golden boy Rossi, he defeated France in the knockout round of eight into four and reached the semi-finals.

The Azzurri have been winless in their subsequent match-ups against their opponents, including the 1986 World Cup quarter-finals, where they lost 0-2; In the quarter-finals of the 1998 World Cup, they lost 3-4 on penalties; In the Euro 2000 final, they lost 2-1 in extra-time.

In addition, France also dominated the friendly matches and warm-up matches against Italy, and it would be wonderful for the Gallic Roosters to continue this good momentum and finally stand on the top of the world for the second time. ”

"Buffon thinks he's in the best form he's in at the height of his career. He said before the game: 'I feel very safe at the moment, I have no doubts about the goal, I feel confident all over me. I swear, it's the best feeling moment of my career. ’

Gianluigi Buffon's confidence in keeping the goal clean can be attributed in part to Italy's steely defence, which he believes is airtight at the back, led by captain Cannavaro, making it feel like any attacking player is tied up. There's always a barrier in front of me that I can't cross, and my confidence comes from my teammates. Buffon said.

Buffon also gave the credit to coach Lippi for the team's final. 'Aside from technical and tactical ability, I see in Lippi something that other coaches don't have. He can bring out 120% of your potential. He's a club coach at heart and his experience makes you feel like it's a pleasure to work with and he makes everyone in the team feel like they're important and part of the team, which is rare for a coach. Buffon said of Lippi. ”

French Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy recently said that on the day of the World Cup final, France will send thousands of police officers to patrol the city and suburbs of Paris to prevent riots caused by fan celebrations after the French team won the championship, and the French police also specially deployed 4,000 additional gendarmes for this purpose.

The fact that the French police have made such preparations shows that they are full of confidence in the French team to win the championship. Sarkozy said: 'We are ready to celebrate! If France win the title, the celebration will be extraordinarily grand. ’

But he was worried about the security issues that had been exposed: 'We're going to make sure the celebrations run as smoothly as we can, and we need to separate the vandals from the fans who came to celebrate the victory, and we don't want a few rioters to disturb the national celebration.'" A few days ago, on the same day that France beat Portugal in the semi-finals, a fan riot broke out on French soil, resulting in the deaths of five people. Forty-five policemen were injured, dozens of cars were set on fire, and the police arrested 350 perpetrators, as many as 190 in Paris alone. ”

The Associated Press yesterday concluded that while Zidane's long-awaited farewell match was to lift the Hercules Cup again after eight years, Italy had the ability to ensure that Zizou could not get his wish.

Seventy years ago, Berlin's Olympic Stadium witnessed Jesse? Owens won four Olympic gold medals. Seventy years later, if the 34-year-old Zidane leads the French team to defeat the Italian team to win the championship. Then he will also work a miracle. But Zidane's farewell match could end in failure. Because emotion and nostalgia are not the magic weapon to win a football match, let alone a weapon in the final, especially when the opponent is Italian. ”

Reuters believes that Don may struggle to show his strong breakthrough ability under the intense pressure of the final. Nearly forty percent of Milan fans expressed their support for Tang before the game. This will also have a certain psychological effect on him. France is very worried about this. The situation that arose in Ronnie '98. Will it be on him? ”

"Missed the semi-finals. Don will make his debut in the final tonight, and before the game, the Spanish media came up with the famous rule: it is difficult for a player to perform well in an important match for the first time!

In an interview with the team newspaper before the game, Don said: 'It's been proven. This rule does not apply to me. I'm going to score in the final. Don's words showed his strong desire to score. Playing against Italian defenders is no stranger to him. One year of experience in Serie A has laid a solid foundation for him to perform well in the final. ”

"When the audience in front of the TV saw the Italian players sing the Italian national anthem, their eyes moistened. Cannavaro said excitedly, 'We are willing to give our lives. ’。 The defender of the national team has apparently come out of the scandal of allegedly accepting black gold. And goalkeeper Buffon also seems to have cleared the charge of suspected gambling and became a sage of Italy. ”

Coach Lippi's popularity has also suddenly skyrocketed, and he was bombarded by the media before the semi-final. Fabio? Grosso became Italy's national hero when he scored the crucial goal in the last four minutes of extra time. Italy will take on old rivals France tonight, and for Italy, the victory will be a carnival. And it just so happens that in the past two days, the Italian court is ruling on the football scandal. ”

"'France reminds me of the pain of losing at the 1998 World Cup and Euro 2000. But this time, we're going to win with all our blood and sweat. 'Italian captain Fabio? Cannavaro's words can represent the blazing ambition and revenge of the whole country of Italy at this moment.

A famous Italian TV presenter said: 'The time has come for revenge. ’。 Tardelli, who lifted the 1982 World Cup for Italy, said: 'It's a good thing to meet France, the title is within reach. ’。 After the semi-final between France and Portugal, head coach Lippi also dismissed the French team: 'France? We have a chance. ’”

"Italy is shrouded in the biggest football scandal in history. Not so long ago, the son of Serie A Juventus general manager Moggie, Alejandro? Moji is suspected of bribing the referee and is under police investigation. President of the Italian Football Federation, Franco? Carraro had to resign as president because he was involved in the scandal.

Italian football is in a state of chaos and leaderlessness. The majority of fans are also depressed and desperately need a major victory to soothe their discontent. The Italian national team's entry into the final of the World Cup coincided with a 'long drought and a rainy day'. Just like the means of 'passing on the crisis of the country' in international politics, the Italian Football Federation urgently needs this 'nationalism' straw to save its reputation.

Indeed, a champion can cover up a scandal, forget a wound, and be remembered for generations. ”

……

The starters from both sides came out of the dressing room and stood in the tunnel of the players. Pirlo walked over and hugged Tang Jue and whispered, "We finally met!" ”

Tang Jue stopped chewing the gum in his mouth and said with a smile: "Then we want a real final!" ”

Pirlo patted Tang Jue's shoulder, the corners of Materazzi's mouth beside him curled slightly, the real final? Then you have to ask me if I agree! (To be continued......)
