Chapter 128: Don't Lose
Belgium faced the shijie champion France team in the 1/8 finals, which is undoubtedly a not so optimistic result, probably no one thought before, France would encounter so many obstacles in the group stage, Switzerland, South Korea, Togo, in terms of strength, these three opponents and France are not at the same level at all, but in the group stage, the main board made a revolution and almost made France, a local tyrant.
The Ukrainians should be thankful that their second-place status allows them to have a little easier in the upcoming matches, and if Shevchenko can maintain his form from the Zuihou group game, they may be able to reach the quarter-finals in their first Shijie Cup.
In contrast to the roar of cheer in Ukraine, Belgian fans lamented that even these supporters did not think their team would be able to make it past France.
Of course, Degan doesn't see it that way, France are indeed the favorites to win the championship, but the favorites are not invincible, especially since the current French team also has a lot of problems.
The backline is aging and the attacking power of the forward line is lacking, even if they have Shijie's number one star Zinedine Zidane in charge? There's enough creativity, but it's not a knife in front of you, and there's no way to turn creativity into goals.
In addition to not wanting to end his first Shijie Cup trip in the first round of elimination, Deegan has another reason why he must not lose.
As long as they get rid of France, Belgium will face the winner between Brazil and Ghana in the next round.
Digan does not think Ghana can beat Brazil, in his previous life, although the Brazilian team eventually lost to France in the quarter-finals, ending the 2006 Shijie Cup journey prematurely, but there is no doubt that the current Brazilian team is definitely better than the 1998 runners-up and the 2002 champion team in terms of strength.
In the goalkeeper position, there is Dida, a shijie-level goalkeeper, Cafu, Carlos is old and strong, and the combination of Lucio and Juan has a toughness and tenacity that none of the Brazilian players have.
In the midfield, Ze Roberto, Kaka, Ronaldinho, and Emerson are all top players, and the attacking combination of Adriano and Ronaldo in the front line is definitely super.
In the three games of the group stage, the first game defeated Croatia 1-0, although there was only one goal, but the Brazilian team's offensive from beginning to end firmly controlled the initiative of the game.
In the second game against Japan, the Brazilians told Quan Shijie that it is not possible to play football well by putting a ball on the national flag, 3:1, Brazil allows the Japanese to face an opponent without desire after two group games.
At the same time, the game also set a record, Ronaldo scored twice, surpassing German Muller, to become the player with the most goals on the Shijie Cup stage.
Zuihou faced Australia in one game, and the Brazilian team finally ushered in a hearty victory with 4:0, this game Kaka, Ronaldinho, Robinho, and Fred each scored a goal, showing the Brazilian team's super attacking ability.
Although the Ghana team did not do a bad job in their Shijie Cup debut, beating the United States and the Czech Republic to qualify, it is still a little difficult for the young Ghana to overcome the difficulties of Brazil.
Brazil will definitely make it to the quarter-finals, and if Belgium loses at this time, he can imagine what kind of Pereira will say after the match.
In fact, since the Shijie Cup, the topic around Deegan and Pereira has never stopped, the reason is that Pereira's high hopes directly led to Degan's withdrawal from the Brazilian team and the performance of Adriano, the center of Belgium, is really difficult to be satisfied.
What about Degan?
Only two games were played in the group stage, but two hat-tricks were dedicated, if it were not for the first round of the group stage, Antienes chose to give more players a chance when the team had already appeared, and by the way, let Digan rest, there is reason to believe that after the group stage, Digan can lock in the top scorer.
In contrast, even in Brazil, some people began to talk that Pereira forced Digan out of the national team to be a big mistake.
If Digan is still in the national team, with his super scoring ability and the tacit understanding between the Wright brothers, Brazil's defense of the Shijie Cup will basically be much easier.
Of course, there is no point in such remarks now, and the Wright brothers cannot play a duet for Brazil on the stage of the Shijie Cup, but when they meet, they can only be rivals.
Two brothers who are siblings of the same mother, but play for two national teams respectively, and now it is even possible to compete face-to-face on the stage of the Shijie Cup, and those onlookers are immediately excited.
In such a situation, there has never been a precedent in the previous shijie cups, and no one expected that this shijie cup could actually dedicate such a big gimmick.
Soon a good thing person gave a comparison of all aspects of the Wright brothers, first of all, the scoring ability, there is no doubt that in this aspect, Degan is overwhelming, although Kaka is not bad, but in terms of scoring ability, it is still a lot worse than Degan.
In addition, the core role in the two national teams of Brazil and Belgium, the two are equally matched, although the Brazilian team does not have a fixed core player now, but Kaka's role is undoubted, especially after Rivaldo's withdrawal from the national team, Kaka seems to have taken over the banner of directing Brazil's attack.
Not to mention Degan's role in the Belgian national team, all of Antienes' tactics revolve around Degan.
However, in terms of tactical execution, Kaka is going to have an advantage, he does not have the casual style of ordinary Brazilian players, no matter what tactics, he can execute perfectly, of course, when he is on the field, he will occasionally give people a beautiful improvisation or two, but most of the time, he is playing the role of a qualified tactical executor.
Comparatively speaking, Deegan is much worse in this regard, when he is on the field, he is more relying on his individual ability to help the team move forward, and the tactics are not obvious in him, most of the time, he seems to be outside the overall tactics.
In any case, the Wright brothers' infighting is undoubtedly the biggest attraction of this year's Shijie Cup.
Kaka and Degan are also very aware of this, and they still have some expectations in their hearts.
But even so, even if he felt the same excitement in his heart, Deegan was reluctant to show it in front of outsiders: "Brazil!? I don't think it's a good time to talk about Brazil, or that you're ignoring the presence of France, our next opponent is France, and only after the win against France do we need to think about the next issues, and even if we can make it to the next round, it won't have to be Brazil, don't forget, Ghana is not a weak team! ”
Although Degan swears by it, everyone can see that he is duplicitous, including Kaka who knows him best.
"Rod! Don't lose until you meet us! ”
Degan didn't expect Kaka to call him at this time, and said with a smile: "Of course, Ricardo!" I'd never dreamed of seeing Pereira's damn old man with a bitter look on his face! ”
Most of the reason why he made up his mind to quit the Brazilian national team was because Digan felt that he was ignored by Pereira, which made the self-esteem of Degan unbearable, and now the opportunity for revenge has arrived, although before that, there was also a France.
Kaka knew how deep Degan's grudge against Pereira was, but ~~~~~~
"Rod! Don't be too confident, Brazil is now recognized as the strongest Brazilian team! ”
"I know! But the strongest Brazilian team is led by an old bastard! That's all that bastard's coaching skills. ”
Kaka couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and Degan's tone sounded like a child with a tantrum.
"Rod! I don't want to argue with you about this right now, I just called you to remind you that France is not easy to deal with, they are used to slow heat in the tournament, and now that the group stage is over, I think they have adjusted, and then you don't lose because of the underdog! ”
Underestimating the enemy?
Does Belgium now have the qualifications?
Anything can happen on the stage of the Shijie Cup, not to mention the opponent is Shijie champion France, even if it is the Maldives, they have to deal with it carefully.
"Ricardo! For me, there is no opponent to be taken lightly! In the same way, I want to give you that Ghana is not as weak as people think, you better be careful, I don't want you to capsize in the gutter, of course, if you lose, it will be good news for me, and we will be able to play the next game a little easier! Also, in order for you and Caroline to get married as soon as possible, I think it's necessary for me to get you out of the game! ”
Before the start of the Shijie Cup, Kaka had already announced that he would have a wedding with Caroline after the Shijie Cup was over.
Seeing that Deegan actually mentioned this matter, Kaka was helpless, he knew that in terms of bickering, he was not Digan's opponent even if he was full power, so he ended the conversation very wisely: "Rod! Remember, don't lose, I'd rather fight alongside you, but if there's a chance to compete, I think it's a good feeling! ”
Deegan smiled: "So are you, Ricardo!" I don't want you to be defeated by some unknown people, the only one who can defeat you is me! ”
Kaka smiled, remembering what Deegan said to him at the beginning: One day I will surpass you and let everyone know who is the strongest one in the Wright family!
"Good! I'm waiting for you! ”
