After a fatal mistake by England, the Czechs immediately seized the opportunity to counter-attack across the board, and for most of the first half, it seemed as if the Eastern European Irons had tightened their hard shells and suddenly unsheathed their swords.

After the ball was broken, the Belgian players on the field were stunned for a moment, and then quickly returned to the defense, but it was obviously too late, and the Czech team formed a situation of playing more and less in the front.

Although Rosicky can only play as a support for Fabregas at Arsenal, he is an absolute core player in the Czech national team, and after holding the ball, he quickly went straight to the Belgian team's half.

Garacek and Prashiel on both flanks also advanced to either side of the Belgian penalty area, and with Jankole and Barosh in front of them, the Belgian backline was also struggling.

Kompany and Van Bitten, who were dragging at the back, did not dare to come forward to defend, so they could only keep retreating and blocking the line of the penalty area.

The captain of the Belgian team, the veteran Gul, also fought hard, his speed has never been as fast as now, there was originally a distance of five meters between him and Rosicky, but he was caught up.

Stick it up, bang!

Gul wanted to foul the Czech counter-attack, but at the moment of being knocked down, Rosicky, the last genius of Czech football, still passed the ball accurately to the feet of Galasek.

And then~~~~~~~~

"Look at Jankoller!" Antienes on the sidelines roared.

Jankoller, the last banner of the golden generation of Czech football, when it comes to Jankoller, the first thing that comes to mind is definitely his height of 202CM, in the field of football, this height is probably only a handful of goalkeepers can reach, and Kohler's position on the field is a striker, so the nickname of "the world's first high school striker" has not spread.

Of course, Kohler is certainly not satisfied with the word "high" just in terms of height, this World Cup, he is considered to be a cheap old man in the first game against the host Swiss team, just came off the bench, with a header, scored his 35th goal in the national team, surpassing the old scorer Putz 70 years ago, becoming the first scorer in the history of the Czech national team, so that the word "high" also has another meaning.

In the Czech Republic, fans affectionately call him "Dinosaur", and Dortmund fans proudly refer to him as the "Tower of the Striker" in Borussia.

With a natural height advantage, Jankoller has a unique advantage in the penalty area and can always take advantage of a lot.

Since childhood, Kohler has been accustomed to being in the spotlight for being "superior." From the age of 7 to 20, he played for his hometown team Lotas Metanova and was the team's first-choice goalkeeper until the age of 18.

Later, on the advice of his father, who was the team's coach, Kohler decided to change careers, and in the year of the change, the team won the second division title, and he scored more than half of the goals.

Later, when he played for Anderlecht, Jankoller, who did not forget his old job, also won a penalty kick against Belgium international De Wilder in the team.

Another tidbit about Jankoller's height is that in the 2002/2003 Dortmund and Bayern Munich match, Dortmund had already used up three substitutions when Lehmann was sent off. Kohler did not hesitate to put on Lehmann's goalkeeper's uniform and put on gloves to play as goalkeeper, not only did he keep the ball clean in the final 20 minutes of the game, but he also ran into the Bayern penalty area in the final moments of the game, and then rushed back to his own box to make a miraculous save on Ballack's shot.

In fact, there is no shortage of high-end strikers in the Bundesliga who are known for their headers, and Kohler has been able to stand out from the crowd and quickly become popular, but also because of his excellent footwork, he can often be seen on the pitch with his clever dodging skills, and he can also take high-quality curling free-kicks with his right foot.

A big guy has a lot of wisdom.

Jankoller not only has the experience of scoring with his heels in the Bundesliga, but also plays wonderful games for his teammates with his feet on the field, so he is regarded as an outstanding representative of the modern center forward.

Since he only played in the Belgian league before coming to Dortmund, many German media questioned him and even ridiculed him at the beginning of his arrival. It is believed that Dortmund wanted to buy a striker, but bought the wrong defender or even a goalkeeper. However, in his first season at Borussia Dortmund, Kohler scored 11 goals and provided seven assists to help the team win the league title.

KHLOE NOT ONLY HAS A HEIGHT OF 202CM, BUT ALSO WEIGHS 103KG AND A 50-YARD FOOT, WHICH MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR OPPOSING DEFENDERS TO TAKE HIM IN THE BOX.

However, the giants also have old days, everyone knows that this is Jankoller's last European Cup, and the Czech team has been full of tragic atmosphere from the beginning.

Jankulovski and other players vowed before the game: "In this European Championship, we are not only going to fight for the country, but also for Jankoller." ”

Jankoller also said in an interview with the media that this will be his last major tournament and that he will retire from the national team after the European Championship regardless of the result and whatever happens.

"Nothing can change my decision, this will be my last tournament."

The 35-year-old Jankoller currently has a one-year contract with Nuremberg in the Bundesliga, although Nuremberg has unfortunately been relegated this season, but judging from the current situation, the Czech veteran will choose to accompany the team to play in the Bundesliga next season.

Although he himself has said that he will return to his parent club Sparta Prague in due course, he has no specific plans to do so.

Sparta Prague is a place where he has reached glory, but when it comes to it, he first expresses his loyalty to Nuremberg: "I haven't thought about it yet, and now I have a contract with Nuremberg and I will continue to stay there, even if it is against the Bundesliga." ”

Although he is getting older, but with excellent physical fitness and air superiority, the giant Kohler is still the leading striker of the Czech national team, after the withdrawal of veterans such as Nedved, he also shoulders the responsibility of continuing to lead the team forward, in the warm-up games before the European Championship, Jankohler is the team's single arrow, at the forefront, and his important role for the team does not need to be said.

Although the host of the first game, Jan Kohler was a substitute, but after he played, the tactics of the old coach Brückner completely began to revolve around Jan Koller, the four defenders rarely assisted, consolidating the defense, the midfielder ran at all costs, even in the front court, he also launched a full-court press, and the whole team got the ball is an action, passing to Jankoller.

It's the same in this game, the players on both sides are very clear that both teams have only one chance to live, and beating the opponent becomes the only option.

Jankoller had said before the start of the game: "It's going to be a tough game, we have to stay calm and know that one game is not enough to decide the qualification situation, all we need to do is give our best to the best of our ability." ”

In the previous matches, the Belgian team completely took the initiative, they had better skills and determination to win. The Czechs were completely suppressed, and in the face of the Belgian team's stormy attack, the Czechs looked so angry that they didn't even have a chance to struggle.

However, everyone underestimated the tenacity of the Czechs, and the Eastern European Iron Cavalry showed people their iron spirit, which would never give up the fight without shedding the last drop of blood.

Perhaps God thought that the Czech Republic was too sad, so he gave them this opportunity.

When it comes to the sadness of Czech football, there may be objections, such as Italy.

Italian pathos? If you have to start talking about sadness from Baggio's missed penalty, it's eight or nine years. After that, Feng Shui immediately improves; French pathos? is not related at all, Zidane's retirement is quite successful, it is nothing more than the red card that attracted the foul on Degan to be embarrassing.

But who is more sad than the Czech Republic?

In the last European Cup, the Czech Republic showed the king of the world, but unfortunately ruined in front of Greece with the "dark horse" to the point of magic, the World Cup two years ago, Nedved's back announced the end of the golden generation, the Czech Republic was the first team to be killed by the "Golden Ball", the first team to be killed by the "Silver Ball", this European Cup, with the retirement of many veterans, the Czech Republic has not yet stepped on the European Cup, has been sentenced to death.

However, the sad Czechs were suddenly given a chance to change their lives as they are now, and the Belgians were probably overly optimistic, and the first forty minutes of good sailing allowed them to relax in the growing pride, and the struggle and laxity were silting up at the same time, blocking the Belgians' path to victory. A huge dammed lake hung over their heads, until Naeng's fatal mistake dug the last handful of dirt before the dam broke, and now it was the Belgians' turn to do their death throes, and the Czechs fought back like a death noose to wrap them tightly.

When Antienes realized the danger, the first thing that came to his mind was Jankoller, who was at the front of the Czech team.

Is Kohler already in his twilight years?

He had a chance to score a solo goal before, but unfortunately when he faced Eric Bailly, his shot seemed slow and unchanging, and it was difficult to break through the opposition defence by relying solely on his height. It's no wonder that Baros is in a hurry to jump on the side, the same single knife, if it were replaced by Baroshe's speed, physical fitness, and breakthrough figures, maybe the Czechs would have been ahead long ago.

But when the opportunity presented itself again, the Czechs were the first to think of Jankoller, and just as Antienes was aware of the danger, the Czechs would always believe that Jankoller was the one who could decide the outcome of the game.

Galasek passed the ball, diagonally 45 degrees, and the ball flew straight into the box, Jankoller looked a little clumsy, but Kompany, who defended him, couldn't stop Jankoller from moving in place.

In front of Jankoller, Kompany seemed to not exist, his eyes only had football, jumping, shaking his head, such movements, he had done countless times in previous games, even such an important game, Jankoller completed it with extraordinary ease.

Bailly struggled to make a save, but it was difficult to stop the ball from entering the net, and Jankoller shot closer than the penalty spot, and with great speed.

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL！”

The Czech commentator, who had been suppressed for forty minutes, finally broke out, and the moment the ball crossed the goal line, he jumped to his feet, roaring loudly and waving his fists with all his might.

On the contrary, it is the Belgian commentator, just now it is clear that everything is developing in the direction of Belgium, and the commentator has even begun to analyze which team Belgium will meet after the group appears, and how far will Belgium go after Digan returns from the ban, how can he let the Czechs score first in a blink of an eye.

What's going on?

Jankoller looked very excited after the goal, and his teammates tried to catch him, but there was no way to stop the already mad bull.

Jankoller rushed all the way to the bottom of the South Stand, where the Czech fans gathered, with open arms and roaring loudly.

On the sidelines, the always steady old coach Brückner was also excited like a child at this time, hugging everyone around him.

Just before the game, there was a lot of criticism about his decision to abandon the single-striker strategy in favor of a two-striker and put Jankoller in the main position, and now it seems that Brückner was completely right to trust Jankoller.

In front of the excited Czechs, the most disappointed is probably Nae-England, who made a big mistake, if it weren't for his overconfidence, he wouldn't have been cut off, and then Jankoller's goal would naturally not exist.

"Radgar! Stand up! Gul walked over to Naeng, who was slumped on the ground, and although he was just as disappointed and complaining, at this time, as the captain, he was thinking about the fate of the team.

Although Naeng is responsible for the goal conceded, he can't say anything, let alone complain, and he has to cheer up Naeng and get back into the fight before Antienes replaces him.

Naeng England thought that the team was likely to lose the opportunity to appear because of his fault, Naeng's eyes were red, and he held back to keep the tears from falling.

"I'm sorry! Captain! It's all my fault! ”

Gul really wanted to say, "That's right! It's all your bastard's fault! ”

But such words cannot be spoken.

"If you think it's your mistake, then go and atone for your sins, otherwise, take the initiative to apply to leave, of course, I don't want you to choose the second way, at least you still have some use for us on the field, so, put away your tears now, Mr. Na England, the game is not over yet, we haven't conceded defeat yet!"
