As if by magic, Don Jue took out two pieces of paper and placed them in front of Domenech. The French coach picked it up suspiciously, he looked at it very attentively, very carefully, and slowly his face began to change.

"This ...... Which journalist sorted this out? Domenech asked.

The information is very complete, and the characteristics, achievements, and examples of each player are listed one by one. In addition to the information of the players, there is also the tactical thinking of coach Hiddink, and the information finally boldly speculates about the upcoming semi-finals, Hiddink's lineup, strategy, and tactics.

Simply put, this is a valuable document that will be of great help to Domenech. He doesn't think that this is sorted out by Tang Jue, only reporters have the time and channels to sort out such a piece of information that everyone wants.

This information was compiled by the supercomputer Xiao Feifei. Tang Jue snorted, forget it, since you think that you are a reporter, you are a reporter.

"A good friend, he doesn't want to be known."

Domenech hesitated, but finally held back, since the child didn't want to say anything. The French coach wanted to get to know the journalist and ask him to help sort out the opponent's profile when needed. Still, the temptation was too great, and he asked, "Can he still help in the future when needed?" ”

Tang Jue said very simply: "No problem! ”

Receiving this answer, Domenech was very happy, his gray eyebrows jumped, and he warmly asked Tang Jue to sit down.

"With this information, the semi-finals are more certain!" The French coach smiled and said: "What do you think of the semi-finals? ”

The two apprentices began to exchange their views on the semi-finals......

……

France will compete with Russia for a ticket to the final, and the French team is stronger than Russia in terms of strength. It is believed that France has a better chance of qualifying for the final. However, the French media was very cautious, warning their players to take Russia seriously, and being able to reach the semifinals fully shows that Russia is strong.

"The Russian team is more mysterious than other teams, because most of their players play in the domestic league and the other teams know little about their characteristics," said the Paris daily newspaper. Being able to eliminate the mighty Netherlands shows that Russia is not a weak team, and the French team should prepare seriously and not take it lightly. A repeat of the death of the Netherlands.

Team report said: The Netherlands are out of the tournament. The main factor for this is that they did not play their own characteristics. The French team will have to learn a lesson, play their own characteristics in the semi-finals, strengthen their control of the midfield, and control the initiative of the game in their own hands.

French fans nodded at the media's approach. Encounter strong teams to encourage. Alert when encountering a weak team. That's what mature media is.

The other match in the semi-finals was played in Germany and Turkey. Both in terms of overall strength and competition results, the German team has the advantage, so it is widely believed that Germany should be able to advance to the final. Judging by the past results. Germany have a very big advantage, but they have failed to win three meetings in the last decade.

Bild says: It's time for a change!

Munich Sport said: "There is nothing to say, beat Turkey and advance to the final!"

The Turkish media encouraged their team members, and Muslim Pravda said: Miracles are always for those who have courage, and Turks have never lacked courage. Although Germany is strong, we have never lost to them in the three meetings we have faced in the past ten years. Even if we are seriously injured, we can still refer to miracles!
