Chapter 349: A Different Olympics (4)

Shortly after the match between Italy and Spain, another South American team, Argentina, eliminated Portugal, a much mediocre team compared to their predecessors, 2-1 thanks to goals from Crespo and Veron, and became the first team to reach the semi-finals of the Olympic Games.

In the next semi-finals, Nigeria will face the Brazilian Olympic team, which has Carlos, Juninho, Savio and Ronaldo, who are talked about by the fans of the Celestial Empire, while Italy will face another strong team from South America - Argentina.

Although the Olympics are close to the high tide of Zuihou, the employees of Zhuang Mingge GM have not been given much time to rest, and they have just completed a series of tasks and have been sent by Zhuang Mingge to another new battlefield - the NBA, they want to start a new business in this strange land.

Of course, Zhuang Mingge did not force these employees under him to sign brokerage contracts with many NBA stars, after all, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, the NBA has NBA rules, and if you rush in, you will only die miserably.

So, now GM's task is to get acquainted with the NBA environment, and then go back to Europe to run some European players to participate in the NBA draft, and sign them on brokerage contracts, and in this way gradually infiltrate the American sports scene.

Not to mention these trivia, on the third day after Spain were eliminated, the semi-finals between Brazil and Nigeria kicked off first.

The Brazilian Football Federation attaches great importance to the gold medal in football at this Olympic Games, so they have gathered almost the best young players in Brazilian football to participate, and the three overage players recruited are also famous, and Beberto and Aldair, who won the Shijie Cup in 94, are in the squad for the Atlanta Olympics. However, I don't know Weishenme, the third overage player is not the Cruz in Zhuang Mingge's memory (not the one who played for Inter Milan), but the captain of the Brazilian national team, Dunga.

To be honest, if Romario hadn't offended coach Zagallo, the "lone wolf" would have been the third overage player of the Brazilian Olympic team to participate in this Olympic Games.

Coupled with Dida, Ze Roberto, Zemaria, Ze Elias, Rivaldo, and Doriva, the apprentice of Brazilian legend Cerezo, this Brazilian team can really be said to be gorgeous.

Moreover, the Brazilian team played Nigeria once in the group stage of this Olympic Games, and in that game, they finally defeated their opponents 1-0 with a wonderful individual performance by Ronaldo.

But no matter how strong the Brazilian team is, even if there is a small change in the Olympic participation list, this level of change is clearly not enough to stop the wheel of history.

As in history, Brazil took the initiative from the start with strong individual ability and jishu advantage, and when the first half ended with a 3-1 lead thanks to a goal from Bebeto and a brace from Flavio Conceição, everything seemed to go as expected before the game.

The same was true when the game entered the second half, and despite the Nigerian players' desperate efforts to equalise, Brazil's strong strength kept the situation firmly under control, and the starting goalkeeper Dida even saved a penalty from Okocha in the 64th minute!

However, just when everyone thought that Nigeria was gone, Nigeria's main striker Kanu stepped up, first cut in from the left flank in the 76th minute, and received a powerful volley from Okocha at the edge of the Brazilian penalty area.

The Nigerians made it 2-3!

However, the Brazilian team did not raise their vigilance because of the goal conceded, the players thought that the goal was just an accident, and with their own ability, it was not a problem to hold on to the advantage of Nigeria to reach the final of Zuihou in the past ten minutes, and the most frightening thing is that everyone seems to have this idea.

The Nigerian lads, who were boosted by Kanu's goal, clearly didn't see it that way: if they were capable of scoring two goals against Brazil, Weishenme couldn't score two more?

It is precisely because of this that the Nigerians, who saw the hope of equalizing, became more and more courageous in the following time, frequently taking down the Brazilian players in the confrontation, and the Brazilian players were also beaten by the opponent's brutal style of play and began to fight back. As a result, for ten minutes in the second half, players from both sides were brought to the ground by the opposing players one after another, and the young Brazilian players did not notice that they were subtly distracted by the cunning Nigerian, and did not notice that they had actually put more energy into fighting with their opponents, rather than scoring another goal as soon as possible to re-establish a two-goal advantage.

The Nigerian's strategy paid off, and at the end of the second half, Okocha threw a throw-in from the right and the ball flew straight into the Brazilian penalty area, where it rolled through the legs of several players to the feet of Dida in front of goal!

Just when Dida noticed this dangerous situation, Kanu who was guarding Dida's side had already reacted and stabbed the ball into the gate guarded by Dida! Three to three! The Nigerian miraculously equalised in Zuihou!

The Brazilian players were cursed to watch this happen as spectators, but without the slightest ability to prevent this miracle from happening, and they ended up paying a heavy price for their youthfulness.

The result of an inconspicuous Nigerian equaliser at Zuihou was clearly a blow to the giants, so much so that many of them didn't seem to be able to recover from Kanu's goalmouth strike when extra-time began, and the slip-off gave them another bitter taste.

Just three minutes into extra time, Nigeria's midfielder Okocha steals Rivaldo's pass in the midfield, and then immediately sends a through ball through the Brazilian defense, which is still in the state of switching between attack and defense!

Kanu, who has already scored twice, gave full play to his outstanding explosiveness, successfully formed a single knife ball in the anti-offside position, and faced the attacking Dida with a calm push to complete the golden ball kill! He also scored his third goal of the game! Score a hat-trick!

Four to three! The Brazilian Olympic team, which is considered to be the biggest favorite to win the football championship in this Olympic Games, was eliminated by the African eagles Nigeria!
