Li Kang and his teammates arrived in St. Petersburg ahead of schedule.

The coaching staff rented the hotel's conference room, and everyone watched the French team qualify together.

Didn't think too much about it.

If Croatia can't get past it, all the research on the French team will come to naught.

I didn't have the heart to empathize with the post-match joys and sorrows of France and Brazil.

Because tomorrow, I can also become one of the characters.

Mignano said, "Let's go back and rest early!" ”

The big game is coming, and the coaching staff has not had any high-intensity training in the past two days.

Everyone stood up and went to their rooms.

Isco looked at Morata and suddenly asked: "Do you think it is difficult to play Belgium or Croatia?" ”

Morata didn't hesitate: "We've already won against Belgium, of course it's Belgium in the local position, but it's a lot harder to win against Croatia. ”

De Gea is an anime fan, and he thought about it and said, "It's weird, I think Croatia is a bit like the protagonist of a hot-blooded anime."

Li Kang sat on his chair.

The 'tactical palace' from God's point of view, glowing with a faint white glow.

Scenes of classic scenes of the World Cup come to mind.

Cruyff vs. Beckenbauer's duel of the century.

Maradona's journey to kingship.

The legend of Baggio's loneliness.

Zidane's strategy.

Eventually, all the Legendary Phantoms dissipated one by one.

They can't give Li Kang a substantial improvement, even if it's a concept.

The other side.

Croatia hotel.

Modric put all the scratch paper in his suitcase.

With the big game just around the corner, coach Dalic has allowed his players to use their mobile phones for the first time.

Rakitic called his father.

Lovren played as a football coach during the German period.

The coaching staff didn't utter any encouraging words.

Most of us have experienced the pain of war.

Football is a small country after the rebirth, handing a business card to the world.

July 12th.

St. Petersburg Stadium on the shore of the Gulf of Finland is full of light.

It is the posthumous work of the island nation architect Kurokawa Kisho.

The embodiment of the ultimate meaning of the "metabolism" genre is unfortunately too expensive, costing 1.4 billion euros, which is four times the amount of the Emirates Stadium.

Sixty-eight thousand fans from all over the world filled the stands on all sides.

Their feverish eyes were full of antiquity.

Looking forward to witnessing a great showdown tonight.

“CTV5！ CTV5！ Good evening, audience friends. ”

"Now you're broadcasting the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup in Russia!"

"Spain vs. Croatia!"

"Li Kang and Luka Modric, two generations of talented midfielders, are about to play a head-to-head showdown on the World Cup stage!"

"The Armada is triumphant? Or is it the Plaid Legion that works miracles? Let's wait and see! ”

Pre-match press conference.

Bosque still had a kind smile, so that the reporters of the media could not judge his pre-war mood at all.

'Croatia is a great team.'

"A month ago, few people believed they would make it to the last four of the World Cup!"

'I see the tenacity and tenacity in many of the players.

"We're going to do everything we can and respect our opponents."

The old handsome man is bitter in his heart.

I only hate the Three Lions.

Even if Spain wins against Croatia, they will be stripped of their skin, and what will they use to play France in the final?

Shake your head.

Bosque dissipated the mess, the game at hand was more important, and winning against Croatia was not an easy task.

As long as Li Kang is not injured, he is still very confident.

The other side.

Dalic looked "more" calm.

He was kind and patiently answered reporters' questions.

Didn't use any chicken soup vocabulary.

He doesn't seem to be proud of his team's achievements.

If it were Enrique, that guy would definitely turn the pre-match press conference into a "successology" presentation.

'Tonight's game is going to be tough, but we were well prepared.

Player tunnel.

The two sides shook hands warmly and hugged briefly.

Many play for the same club: Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid.

Cork and Vrsaliko encouraged each other.

Ramos, Carvajal and Modric spoke cordially.

Rakitic and the Barcelona gang exchanged pleasantries.

Enthusiasm can't hide the tension and excitement in my heart.

After a few moments, the two sides stopped communicating.

The spacious passage discharges two queues.

One side wants to return to the top of the world, and the other side wants to break the history of the World Cup semi-finals 20 years ago.

The referee team led the players from both sides out of the aisle.

Under the blowing of the night breeze, the Russian World Cup flag on the green field, like a graceful dancer twisting his waist, echoed the cheers of the landslide and tsunami.

"Here's a look at the starting line-ups for both sides."

"Spain came out with a 4-1-4-1 lineup."

'Goalkeeper: David De Gea.'

'Defenders: Carvajal, Pique, Ramos, Azpilicueta.

'One midfielder: Sergio Busquets.

"Central midfielders: Cazorla, Li Kang, Iniesta, David Silva."

"Striker: Alvaro Morata."

[The veteran is back.] 】

-

[If in the game, this group of technical flow midfielders together is very awesome. It's a pity that the real age difference is too big. 】

-

[The strongest midfield configuration in this 60-minute period? ] 】

-

[It depends on the intensity of the game, facing a desperate Croatia. Spain's midfield combination can last up to 45 minutes. 】

-

[Bosque wants to solve the defensive flaws and stabilize the first half first!] 】

-

[Carvajal has never suffered a loss in the face of "Robery", but it can be said that he will be restrained by Mandzukic. 】

-

[Don't panic, you have to believe in the handicap and odds, I am optimistic that this game will be a one-sided break!] 】

'Croatia came out in a 4-2-3-1 formation.

"Goalkeeper: Subazic."

"Defenders: Strinic, Vida, Lovren, Vrsalik."

"Two midfielders: Brozovic, Rakitic."

[What a wonder! 】

-

[How do you look at it, this lineup is not weak, why do you call Croatia a dark horse? ] 】

-

[Don't be hindsighted, you have to see what team they compare to, and it is a miracle for Croatia to reach the semi-finals. 】

-

[Croatia played two extra games in a row, and this group of veterans now looks like they are also in good spirits, which is terrible. 】

-

[A group of war refugees, who grew up in the flames of war, were shrouded in bullets and life and death in their childhood, and naturally developed a tenacious and unyielding fighting spirit of living to death. 】

-

[Li Kang VS Modric, destructive midfielder VS establishment midfielder. 】

End of guessing the edges.

Li Kang stood in a good position.

The system prompt sounded quietly.

【Ding! Mission Trigger: Miracle Beat. 】

[Brief Description: When the sun kisses his fertile soil, when the wind blows his oak trees, when heaven summons his love. 】

[Reward: World Cup: Mystery Chest.] 】
