Samara's duel finally came to an end.

The sea breeze blows the horn flag.

Members of the Matador Legion gathered on the sidelines to hug and celebrate.

The joy of victory was on everyone's faces, and they advanced to the semi-finals of the World Cup without danger.

The opposite of joy is sadness.

Lukaku crossed his hands on his hips, his eyes blank, and stared blankly in the direction of his opponent's goal.

Courtois angrily threw his gloves on the turf and walked alone to the passage.

De Bruyne sat on the ground, sullenly pulling grass.

Hazard lay on his back, gasping for air.

"The Belgian players have regrets written all over their faces."

"It's a pity that the platinum generation didn't fully deliver on the results, but they can leave the World Cup stage with their heads held high!"

'Eden Hazard made 10 successful dribbles in this game and played a phenomenal performance!'

'De Bruyne made 36 dangerous passes and won six ground duels.

"Courtois made many wonderful saves and defused dangerous situations,"

"And yet all this. Failed to convert into a goal. ”

Live room.

-

[Whitewashed again, my big ball.] 】

-

[Spain can advance to the semi-finals, thanks to Lukaku. 】

-

【Celebration Banquet. 】

-

[Batshuayi, who was replaced in the back, has good shooting skills, and with a burst shot, the football hit the neutral post and rebounded and smashed into his head. 】

-

[Tintin's life is not good, there is a Sterling in the club, and Lukaku, Benteke, and Batshuayi in the national team, when will he meet his real striker? 】

-

[Li Mingdeng's running data in this game is so low, and the semifinals are not easy to play, and the opponent is the winner of England VS Croatia. 】

Post-match press conference.

Bosque had a ruddy face and a kind smile.

'It's a tough game because Belgium are very strong and they're 22 games unbeaten on the international stage, which is an amazing record.

"The last time they lost was back in 2016," he said.

"It's like losing to. Wales under Gareth Bale, it doesn't matter, we had a tough game with ups and downs. ”

"That's right, Lee has changed the tide of battle again!"

"He is the hero of the Matador Legion!"

The applause was thunderous and enduring.

A moment later.

Martinez appeared in the auditorium.

He held back for a long time before making a summary of the game: "We were a little unlucky. ”

There is only one five-star hotel in Samara, which was booked early in Belgium.

The hotel where Li Kang and his teammates stayed was an ordinary hotel.

There is a striptease club nearby.

The Sun reports: The strip club is willing to serve the players of the winning side for free.

Free for players only?

The assistant coach Mignano checked the usual price: for only 25,000 rubles, you can drink champagne and spend two hours with three beautiful Eastern European women.

Of course I didn't have a chance to go, and the coaching staff had to have a meeting.

The hotel where I stayed has long been surrounded by fans and tourists.

Li Kang's room is on the highest floor of the hotel, which is not high, and the floor of this hotel is only 12 floors.

Through the window, you can see the fireworks rising in the sky up close.

[Ding, mission accomplished: Platinum Generation.] 】

[Mission Receipt: Hmm. Suffering and regret are not a necessary lesson in life. 】

[Congratulations on acquiring: Platinum Chest.] 】

Li Kang didn't look at the prize pool.

[The treasure chest is being opened, congratulations on acquiring: Lukaku's "Killer in front of the door" module! ] 】

No changes have been made.

The module doesn't even have an emotional overflow.

Li Kang: "."

He felt that Lukaku's strength was still very strong, but for the tactical needs of the team, he continued to gain weight and lost the agility of the early stage of his debut.

Take out the tablet and start the review.

He played easily tonight, but his teammates couldn't shout at Saul, who had been fighting for 90 minutes.

It is important to find the right stage to switch responsibilities.

Li Kang's wonderful moment in the 1/4 knockout round once again detonated the whole network.

"Two goals, the matador sword bearer suppresses the Belgian stars. 》

"Stop and shoot, the unimpeded nine-and-a-half. 》

"On the advantages and disadvantages of Li Kang's front kick. 》

"The reason for Belgium's defeat is not Lukaku, and the in-depth review of the "little monster" in the offensive end of the running pull. 》

"The peak goalkeeper duel, analyzing the wonderful play of De Gea and Courtois. 》

"Invincible Positional King, Super Hazard!" 》

"Deep Deconstruction of De Bruyne's Role Transformation in 90 Minutes." 》

The number of comments, retweets, and likes has skyrocketed.

-

[Why is there still someone washing the floor for Lukaku?] He squandered at least four must-score chances. 】

-

[Explosive performance, Kerry is all over the field, if Li Kang wins the World Cup, can he be crowned king? ] 】

-

[Big Ears Cup, Champions League Golden Boot, Premier League Golden Boot, Russia World Cup has scored eight goals so far. If you lead the team to win the Hercules Cup again. 】

-

[My nephews who go to kindergarten know Li Kang. 】

-

[My grandmother knows about him, too.] 】

-

[I think Li Kang is very stable in the final, because the winner of "England VS Croatia" is not difficult to deal with. 】

-

[England must easily beat Croatia, Croatia eliminated Denmark by penalty kicks. 】

Nizhny Novgorod.

The score was 1-0 on a large screen above the pitch.

England fans indulged in the joy of taking the lead.

Although I don't understand why the Three Lions will be pressed by Croatia on the field. But it doesn't matter, just win.

"It's a pity!"

'Jesse Lingard wasted a must-score opportunity!'

"He had a big smile on his face and didn't bother with missing the opportunity."

"This is a microcosm of England's performance at this World Cup, and the Three Lions' path to qualification has been smooth."

“.”

"Gee, how did Maguire lose to Modric with a header?"

"Pretty."

"The Plaid Army played a varied attacking chain, with a controlled rhythm and open passes. Oops, Brozovic didn't score this goal! ”

"Brozovic is from Inter Milan FC in Serie A."

"As an aside, since 1982, every World Cup final has had players playing for two clubs, Inter and Bayern."

The young and energetic Three Lions played with Premier League level aggression.

Prepare to use speed and strength to crush the "aging" Croatia.

It didn't work.

Modric and Rakitic, Real Madrid's midfielder partner Barcelona midfielder, two old boys in their thirties connected with each other, rotated flexibly, and stubbornly withstood the impact and pressure of the opponent.

The overall structure becomes extremely stable.

I don't know what kind of belief is supporting their physical fitness.

At the last moment, Mandzukic, who was already limping, broke through the gate of the Three Lions!

Ultimately.

The Plaid Legion completes the reversal.

England 1:2 Croatia.

In the 2018 World Cup in Russia, the results of the semi-final matchups were released.

France vs Brazil.

Spain vs Croatia.
