The players on both sides on the pitch played extremely hard, and the fans on both sides in the stands were also fighting with all their might.

The Croatian fans were singing the national anthem in unison, while the Spanish fans on the other side immediately spoke together to interrupt the chanting.

But unfortunately, the Spanish national anthem has no lyrics, so singing the national anthem is definitely not good, so they responded by chanting the name of every player on the pitch.

But the names of the eleven people were all shouted and the national anthem of the other party was not finished, so they began to sing the song of Lin again.

The song can be traced back to 2013, when Lin Quan was on loan at Werder Bremen, and the fans of the Parrot Army wrote a German song for him.

Later, after Lin Quan transferred to Manchester City, Manchester City fans also adapted the song in English based on the foundation, so the song has two versions: German and English.

After Lin Quan scored the goal, they continued to increase their efforts to besiege Croatia, hoping to kill the suspense of the game in the first half.

It's just that he is not in very good shape, and he walks with a little limp.

Seeing that the referee awarded a penalty, there were bursts of boos and shouts of black whistles.

Just like this goal, if the referee can't make up his mind, he can use VAR to make a decision.

Now there is only one thing on the minds of the players on both sides, and that is to kill each other!

"The Spanish team's suppressive power is still as strong as before!"

On the sidelines, Bosque's mood was not at all relaxed by the penalty.

Let's hope Spain can fight their way out and reach the final, if they are eliminated early, it will be too boring!

……

The Croatian players were chasing Lin Quan, but suddenly found that the ball was missing.

They were already stunned by the Spanish team's continuous and rapid passes, and when they saw that in the space brought out by Lin Quan, Isco was going to shoot directly after taking the ball, so they didn't think about it, and rushed to Isco again.

Although an athlete's metabolic capacity is far beyond the average person, the accumulation of so much lactic acid in the muscles can also make them feel tired, which in turn affects their condition and performance.

The referee immediately blew the whistle, and Isco, David Silva and others surrounded Lin Quan to care about his injury.

Lorenfu was obviously in a hurry, this shovel was quite fierce, and Lin Quanren flew out directly.

The players on both sides of the pitch naturally didn't know that the coach of the French team was on the scene, but even if they did, most of them wouldn't care.

Deschamps smiled: "Those analyses from the outside world can be heard, if you believe them all, you will be taken to the ditch by them sooner or later." ”

Isco originally planned to shoot, but when he saw that the opponent pounced on him, he missed Lin Quan, who should not be missed, and he decisively got up and passed the ball to Lin Quan.

"In the future, I'll call him the little prince of diving!"

Seeing that Lin Quan had been lying in the penalty area for a while and hadn't gotten up, he had already begun to panic in his heart.

The team had just conceded a goal, and the otherwise neutral stadium had suddenly become the opponent's home stadium, and the momentum created by the opposing fans made them upset and annoyed.

Lin Quan secretly praised in his heart, and was about to burst into the penalty area with the ball, but was put down from the side by the opponent's No. 6 central defender.

At that time, the French team was the real challenger, and the Spanish team was a mountain in front of them that they looked up to.

The place where Lorenfu fouled was ambiguous, just near the penalty line, but Lin Quan ended up in the penalty area.

"Although in terms of personnel, it is much worse than the Spanish team four years ago, but under the tandem and drive of Lin Quan, the performance of this younger Spanish team is not bad at all, and even exceeds expectations."

The reason for this is also very simple, because Lin Quan's credit is too good, whether it is a league or an international competition, he never fakes a fall, so the referee does not think that the other party is cheating, he chooses to believe Lin Quan.

Because of this, teams with a very hot home atmosphere are usually difficult to play, and their home stadium will be crowned as the home of the devil.

"Tsk, look at his professional movements, 720-degree spinning somersaults in the air, properly difficult, I think I have to give him 10 points!"

The referee blew the whistle, Lin Quan began to run, and Subaic's eyes widened, and his spirit was tense to the extreme.

On the other hand, Croatia was in good form, but they were suppressed by their opponents in momentum.

When this kid saw Lin Quan looking over, he immediately cast a disdainful look, as if he disdained to be in the company of people like Lin Quan.

In an inconspicuous corner of the stands, the coach of the French team, Deschamps, who had already taken the lead in advancing to the semifinals, couldn't help but sigh after seeing this scene.

The 2018 World Cup used the VAR video assistant referee system for the first time, and in the past, if the referee was not in a good position and did not see clearly, it was likely that there would be mistakes and missed judgments.

Even if you win this game, you won't be able to move forward in the next game, let alone defend your title!

"It looks like Spain are going to win this game and if they qualify for the last four, then they will be our biggest challengers!"

At this time, the momentum created by the fans can effectively stimulate the players, so that their bodies are always in a state of excitement, and will not decline due to the accumulation of metabolites.

Seeing Lin Quan's state, Iniesta on the side asked tentatively.

Subabase was glared at by Lin Quan like this, and suddenly felt Alexander.

"It's okay, I'll do it myself!"

Fortunately, the team doctor had just carried the medical bag and was about to enter when Lin Quan got up from the ground.

Although he successfully saved 3 penalties in the last penalty shootout, this time he faced Lin Quan, this guy has a record of 100% penalty success rate, and no one has ever saved a penalty from his feet so far!

That's why Subacric feels so nervous.

Compared with the first stage of the game, after more than 20 minutes of high-intensity play, the players' bodies have fully adapted to the intensity of the game, and the state has been adjusted to the best.

In their last match against hosts Russia, they were even as close as the hosts in terms of fan numbers.

With each other in mind, victory over Spain is not so out of reach.

Although the title of defending champion belongs to Spain, Didier Deschamps is confident in his French team, and he firmly believes that the final title belongs to the French team.

However, the decision made the Croatian side very unhappy, and Lorenv explained that he had committed a foul outside the box, and the goal was not a penalty but a free kick.

The two sides argued, and in the end it was left to the referee to decide.

Busquets, Pique and other Barcelona players habitually surrounded and put pressure on the referee.

As the defending champions, the enthusiasm and enthusiasm of Spanish fans to support the national team is at an all-time high.

Coupled with the fact that the game did not start for a long time, the players did not have to worry about fitness, which made the attacking threat of the Spanish team much higher at this time.

But now everything is different, and after five or six years of hard work, the French team has fully grown and is now in their prime of life.

"Lin, don't you want someone else to kick this penalty?"

And this time, the number of Spanish fans who came to the scene was several times more than that of Croatian fans.

If the absolute core of the team is abolished because of a penalty, it will be a loss to the Spanish team.

Spread beautifully!

Yes, Didier Deschamps sees his opponents as challengers and puts France in the role of defenders.

At this time, they were singing the Spanish version of the Song of the Forest.

In the 35th minute of the first half, Spain played a very good succession of passes in front.

With the help of multi-camera cameras throughout the stadium, referees can view fouls from different angles, essentially eliminating the vast majority of misjudgments and missed judgments.

Croatia's defenders were disrupted by Spain's successive quick passes, and the players involuntarily began to run after the ball, and holes began to appear in the defence.

But as Lin Quan gradually took the lead in the Spanish national team, Spanish fans also joined the adapted team, and on the basis of German and English, they once again made a second creation in Spanish.

So the Croatian players thought it was a foul outside the box, but the Spanish players thought it should be a penalty.

Subaxiac's brain was down, but how could he let go of such a great opportunity?

Who is Deschamps, whether he comes here or not is my business.

In Deschamps' view, as long as the opponent's No. 10 is restricted, then the French team is really playing casually.

The assistant on the side couldn't help but nodded: "Didn't the outside world say that this Spanish team is not good?" Why can't you see it at all? ”

Think about it, if you trust the 'experts' in everything, do you need so many professional scouts, or even need them to be on the field to check the opponent's condition?

But the referee has already made the decision and will not change it.

However, just as he was about to judge the angle of the opponent's shot and make a save, he saw that Lin Quan seemed to have run past the ......

The momentum they create can infect the players on the field, help them stimulate their fighting spirit, and keep their spirits in a state of excitement and even excitement.

Bosque anxiously yelled at his teammates in the coach's box, he has always been good-natured, but he is really anxious at the moment.

Compared with the more serious national anthems, this kind of songs that belong to the individual stars are generally very light, lively, infectious, and have a kind of magic that can brainwash people.

Lin Quan shook his head and glanced at Lorenv, the central defender of the Croatian team who was shown a yellow card and was unconvinced.

Lin Quan remembered the appearance of this guy, and he would definitely have to 'repay' him well later, this tackle just now was thanks to his talent for injury immunity, otherwise someone else might have to break his leg!

This kid himself made such a big mistake, and he dared to turn his nostrils to the sky, and he turned against the sky!

Thinking of this, Lin Quan took the ball handed over by his teammates and seriously placed it on the penalty spot.

It was not surprising that they would win, given that Spain is a big country in Europe, while Croatia is a small country with a population of less than 4 million.

Some people even accused Lin Quan of fake cheating:

"I thought that only Ronaldo and Neymar liked diving, but I didn't expect that the diving team would add another fierce player today!"

These factors led to the Croatian team being very passive during this time, completely suppressed by the opponent, and had no power to fight back.

At that time, the French team was still very young, the team was in the process of tearing down and rebuilding, and in fact, they did not have the ability to wrestle with the Spanish team, but even so, they played not badly, especially at home, and almost won.

There is a reason why he thinks so, Deschamps is very familiar with the main squad of the Spanish team in the last World Cup, after all, the Spanish team played two games against France in the 12-13 World Qualifiers.

Even neutral fans who couldn't understand Spanish subconsciously shook their heads and hummed along after listening to the melody of the song a few times.

Without Lin Quan, this Spanish team will completely fall apart.

Football matches are very physically demanding, especially in this kind of high-intensity competition, where players are engaged in an intense anaerobic exercise every sprint and run, and the amount of lactic acid accumulated over time is very staggering.

I'm afraid that the Croatian fans and neutral fans combined will be able to draw with them!

The way the fans fight in the stands still has a big impact on the players who are playing fiercely on the field, after all, the fans are the twelfth person of the team.

Not to mention a penalty, two or three are not exchanged!

But Lin Quan's speed was faster than the two of them, and he only heard a loud bang......

After Lin Quan glanced at Subaic, he looked at the Croatian defender behind him who was ready to clear, and found Lorenv's position at a glance.

But now, if there is a controversial foul on the pitch, the referee can use the VAR system to assist in the decision.

Lin Quan keenly seized this fleeting opportunity and dribbled the ball to this position, but left the ball at Isco's feet when he met Isco halfway.

He didn't know if he would be able to break the other party's record and create a miracle.

Stimulated by Lin Quan's goal and the huge momentum created by the fans at the scene, the Spanish fans on the pitch were all in a state of excitement at this time.

Then a scream was heard, and Lorenv rolled on the lawn with his stomach clutched.

He immediately rushed out to snatch the ball away, but his teammates were faster than him, and Lorenve, who was closest to him, had already slid over to clear the siege, not giving Lin Quan a chance to make up for it.

As for how to limit Lin Quan, he is not worried, because he has the best defensive midfielder in the world in his team - Kante!

Thinking of this, Deschamps was in a happy mood, and he was already looking forward to the scene of the pinnacle battle with the Spanish team on the final stage of the World Cup.

But the referee didn't do it, probably because he wasn't used to it for the first time!

"Team doctor, team doctor? Bring someone up there to see it! ”

On the other hand, the Spanish team is undoubtedly in a period of decline after its peak.

For example, Borussia Dortmund's Westphalia, Liverpool's Anfield, etc.

The huge disparity in the population of the two sides is truly reflected in the number of fans on both sides in this stadium.

And the addition of these neutral fans also means that the Spanish fans have won a big victory in this match of the team's 12th man.

He made his decision – reaching for the penalty spot.

Sometimes even the referee himself misses the decision, and the video assistant referee will use the walkie-talkie to remind him.

Now, with a large number of Spanish fans, there is a growing tendency to turn the Luzhniki Stadium into their home stadium.

Ran through?

Do penalties miss?

France lost both games, especially the home one, and it was too embarrassing to lose.

After setting up the position of the football, Lin Quan took a few steps back and looked at the goalkeeper with his hands on his hips.

And the football fell from the air and into Sucric's arms impartially.

What happened?

Subacric held the ball with a blank expression.
