Chapter 168: Nine goals in four games, terrifying
Three goals and three assists, another double hat-trick.
No matter how far the England team can go in this wave, Lin Yun has already won.
Mendes has become the busiest person in the entire agent industry, but unfortunately Lin Yun is too lazy to force it, and he is very harsh in terms of endorsements, and there are not many people who can finally enter his eyes, but as long as the negotiation is completed, it is basically a big contract that can make ordinary people envy to death.
At a young age, he has already achieved financial freedom...
Arsene Wenger was both happy and worried.
Lin Yun himself is beautiful, and he has a headache here again.
According to the most conservative estimate, Lin Yun has played at least half a billion for himself in these three games.
This kid is not cheap in the first place, he is definitely the most expensive in football today, and now after coming to the World Cup, he has put gold on himself and can not afford much, but not nothing.
Wenger sighed and prepared for his own fight...
"Portugal, Spain, and Italy were upset out of the group, while Costa Rica and Greece made history in the knockout rounds of the World Cup!
Costa Rica lost to England in the final round of the group stage and will face Colombia in the quarter-finals, while Greece will face the Three Lions in the quarter-finals!
Greece made it to the knockout stages of the World Cup for the first time, and it was surprising that they scored just two goals in the group stage and were the only team in the round of 16 to lose on goal difference, while England scored a frantic 13 goals in three group games.
Of course, of the 13 goals, 8 came from Lin Yun and 4 came from Lin Yun's assists......
Therefore, in this game, the key to Greece's victory lies in whether it can freeze Lin Yun, or even limit his play slightly. β
The fans who were watching the live broadcast couldn't help but laugh out loud when they heard the narrator's words.
Freezing Lin Yun is a joke.
In the past, Lin Yun was only a problem for the whole of Europe, at most, he was in the Premier League and the Champions League, but now Lin Yun has become a problem in the world, who has a headache.
Because of Lin Yun's performance, England's odds to win the championship have soared, and now it is second only to Brazil, Germany, and Argentina, coming to fourth.
At 13 o'clock on June 28, Brazilian time, the quarterfinals of the 2014 World Cup officially kicked off.
Brazil captain Thiago Silva set up centre-back partner Luiz to open the scoring, but Alexis Sanchez soon equalised for Chile as they drew 1-1 on 120 minutes before Brazil won 3-2 on penalties.
Four hours later, the match between Colombia and Costa Rica began.
Colombia eliminated Costa Rica 2-0 to reach the last eight of the World Cup for the first time in history and will face hosts Brazil for a place in the semi-finals.
James Rodriguez opened the scoring with four consecutive goals, and in the second half he scored another wonderful out-of-the-box goal, surpassing Messi, Muller and other famous players, and ranking second in the scorer list with five goals.
There is no doubt that J Ronaldo is the biggest discovery of this World Cup, if it weren't for Lin Yun's too perverted play, he could even become the most beautiful cub in this World Cup.
A day later, Fortaleza, Brazil.
The match between the Netherlands and Mexico begins.
The first half was tied 0-0, but Mexico took the lead just 165 seconds into the second half!
The 1-0 score lasted until the 88th minute, when substitute Huntelaar set up Sneijder to equalise.
In stoppage time, Arjen Robben won a penalty and Huntelaar scored a penalty to advance to the quarter-finals of this World Cup.
And their next opponent is the winner between England and Greece.
With only four hours between the two matches, the Dutchman returned to his hotel to watch the match between England and Greece.
Costa Rica put on a situation that five defenders couldn't handle, and Greece didn't waste any more energy and went straight to a 4-3-3 formation.
The purpose is obvious.
Since you know that you can't prevent it, then just attack it.
'For England, Steven Gerrard was back in the starting line-up, with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain replacing Welbeck in the starting line-up again, with three musketeers on the pitch again.
"Greek veteran Kachulanis was released from the ban but did not enter the starting line-up.
Greece coach Santos made just one change compared to the final round of the group stage, with Samarias replacing KonΓ©, who was out injured. β
"Greece 4-3-3.
Goalkeepers: 1-Carnezis;
Defenders: 15 - Torosidis, 4 - Manolas, 19 - Papastathopoulos, 20 - Holebas;
Midfielders: 10 - Karagunis (c), 2 - Maniadis, 22 - Samarias;
Forwards: 14 - Salpingidis, 16 - Christozoulopoulos, 7 - Samaras. β
With the lessons of the previous game, this time, neither the live audience nor the fans watching the live broadcast dared to wander, let alone be late, and they were engrossed from the first second of the game, for fear of accidentally missing a goal.
Fortunately, this time it was Greece who served first, and England should not be able to score in a few seconds.
Who knew that Lin Yun would still make a big move at the beginning.
ββ¦β¦ The Greek team kicked off, Samaras passed back, Lin Yun and Rooney actively pressed, and Qiu was passed to the side...... Chamberlain made a successful steal and crossed to find Lin Yun! β
As soon as the ball passed from Chamberlain's feet, several Greek players pounced on Lin Yun like sharks smelling fish.
Lin Yun cleverly leaked the ball and directly caught them off guard.
By the time Lin Yun turned around to catch up with the football, there was no one around him to defend him.
He didn't stop doing anything, and directly raised his foot to hit the door.
A super lob shot almost near the halfway line.
Greek goalkeeper Carnezis is very focused, and there is no problem with his position, Lin Yun's shot is a bit chaotic, and if he dies, he can play the role of a knock on the mountain, and even he doesn't take it too seriously.
Who knew that the route of the football was very strange, and it was actually towards the upper left corner of the goal.
This kind of theoretical blind spot hitting the goalkeeper is a great test for every goalkeeper, and Karcines was scared out of half of his life, so he quickly adjusted his pace, jumped hard, and made a heavy block with his right hand.
With a "snap", the ball was finally dragged out before the football was ready to enter the goal.
The Greek coach on the sidelines was so frightened that he had already crouched down, and only felt alive when he saw the football being blocked.
Lin Yun smiled disappreciatively.
With his appearance, this smile is still quite lethal, but in the eyes of the Greeks, this expression is somewhat of a "devil's smile".
ββ¦β¦ Lin Yun shot in the middle of the field and almost broke through the door of the Greek team, but fortunately, the Greek goalkeeper reacted in time and lifted the ball out of the bottom line, and England just got a corner kick opportunity at the beginning. β
Gerrard scrambled to a corner, Rooney excitedly squeezed in front of goal, but Gerrard passed the ball to the back post.
Wilshere stepped forward unexpectedly, leaped high and headed home.
The header was so powerful and fast that Hodgson had already clenched his fists, but Torosidis didn't know where it suddenly came from, and he slammed the ball out with his head in the nick of time.
Wilshire immediately raised his hand in the air.
"The ball is in! It's over! β
Rooney turned around.
He didn't actually see it clearly, but since Wilshire shouted, he immediately followed with a few blind shouts, "Ball in...... it!? β
Gerrard crosses to the back post and Wilshere heads it in! Unfortunately, the ball was pushed out of the goal line by a defender, and the England players seemed to think that the ball had gone in, and it was another goal-line suspense...... Yes?! Lin Yun!! β
The football was pushed to the right side of the small penalty area, and Papastathopoulos was about to relay the ball with a header and completely clear the ball, but Lin Yun suddenly came out from the side, jumped high, and with a slight touch, he directly pushed the ball out of front of his eyes with his forehead.
The football flew up diagonally, and the height was very high, Lin Yun's feet touched the ground, and the football was still two or three meters above him.
The surrounding Greek players immediately rushed over, but Lin Yun had already jumped high with his back to the goal again, head down and feet up, and shot with a barb.
With a "bang", the football hit the lawn in front of the Greek goal, bounced hard, and flew into the door of the Greek team under the desperate eyes of Greek fans around the world.
βGOALοΌοΌοΌοΌ Wilshere's header was cleared, Lin Yun's barb shot was successful, and England led 1-0! β
"I don't know if Wilshere's shot crossed the line just now, but England's lead is definitely fine anyway......"
The screen begins to replay Wilshere's ball.
Slow-motion is clear as Torosidis jumps off the goal line, then leans his neck forward and pushes the ball out just as the ball is about to touch the goal line, which is impossible to score anyway.
England's goal still has to be counted on Lin Yun's head.
Lin Yun rushed to the sidelines, jumped high, and swung his fist heavily.
"This is the 145th goal of this World Cup, which is already equal to the total number of goals scored in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa!"
"Lin Yun's ninth World Cup goal is here!
After the victory over Uruguay, the media generally predicted that Lin Yun would score about 10 goals in this cup competition, but now it seems that this prediction is still too conservative!
10 is just the basics, Lin Yun's target should be Fontaine, or even Klose, it is Ronaldo! β
Nine goals in four games!
If England can make it to the final or the third or fourth place final, they will have at least three games to play.
At this rate, 15 goals is really not a dream!
Lin Yun was quickly added to men by all kinds of men, and everyone had a feeling that they were participating in history, proud and a little sad at the same time, and an inferiority complex of "we are nothing without Lin Yun" spontaneously emerged.
There are many examples of one person leading the whole team in the history of the World Cup, but it is somewhat exaggerated, only this time, Lin Yun is really carrying the England team forward with his own strength.
Trailing just over two minutes into the game, the morale of the Greek team dropped visibly.
Greek captain Karagunis clapped his hands, wanting to encourage everyone, but he didn't know what to say when the words came to his lips, so he could only shout a few perfunctory words, "Don't be discouraged, the game has just started, there is still time!" β
Fortaleza, the hotel where the Dutch team stayed.
A second ago, everyone was still discussing hotly and judging the two sides of the game, but the moment Lin Yun scored, the whole room suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
Everyone looked at captain Van Persie.
As we all know, when Lin Yun first debuted, his nickname was "Little Van Persie......
Of course, everyone knows the next development of the two.
Van Persie touched his nose a little embarrassed, "Yes, this is the opponent we will face next......"
Here, Lin Yun finally broke free from the big man and waved his hand to the stand where his parents were.
Lin Ming and Isabella waved calmly in response, but Dyson and Lake jumped and jumped with excitement, as if they were the ones who scored the goal.
Lin Yun initially set himself a goal of 14 goals, breaking Fontaine's record for goals in a single World Cup, but now his goal has improved even further.
16 goals, breaking the personal goal record in World Cup history!
With the momentum, he struggled hard for the rest of the game, but the Greeks kept him on the spot with an unprecedented focus.
To be reasonable, if there is one person in the England team's attacking group at this time, Greece may not be able to hold out at half time.
However, no.
Wayne Rooney, Raheem Sterling, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Gerrard......
There was no one, and it was all like sleepwalking.
Their performance even made Chinese fans jealous.
Anyway, they are all with a group of spicy chickens, can't they bring sea cucumber for Mao?!
Even England fans shook their heads at it.
ββ¦ It's really spoiled, and sure enough, it's nothing without Lin! β
"You might as well let me get on it!"
"I said a long time ago, Hodgson is at this level, let's change Ferguson."
"It's the same for everyone, just have Lin anyway!"
The game soon came to the 25th minute and England had another good chance.
Samarias tackled Raheem Sterling from behind and England were awarded a direct free-kick from around 22 yards.
England's free-kicks are usually taken by Steven Gerrard, with left-footed penalties given to Bynes, but Rooney occasionally snatches one or two from Gerrard.
In view of Lin Yun's record of scoring a direct free kick, Gerrard and Rooney, who were eager to try, did not dare to grab the ball, and it was not until Lin Yun expressed that he was not interested that Gerrard stood in front of the football.
As soon as Lin Yun stood in the penalty area, three players from the Greek team immediately surrounded him.
Sterling immediately protested to the referee, "Why can they line up two human walls!" β
The referee laughed dumbly, but after a closer look, it seemed that two human walls had really been erected in the Greek penalty area, but there was nothing wrong with Greece, he could only shake his head and signal Sterling not to be unreasonable.
Lin Yun crossed his waist and looked helplessly at the three people around him.
It was the most disgusting defense he's ever had at this World Cup.
Gerard ran up, and Lin Yun suddenly followed suit.
As soon as he moved, all the Greeks became nervous, and the whole forbidden area was immediately in chaos.
Gerrard wanted to hit the ball over the wall, but when he saw this, he quickly turned his gun and hit it to the left of the wall.
The soccer ball flew out, successfully bypassed the human wall, and flew into the goal with a "xiu" sound.
2-0.
The English were relieved.
finally had a goal that had nothing to do with Lin Yun on the surface......
"Gerrard scored from a free-kick, and before half-time, England led by two goals!"
Gerrard ran to the sidelines, patted the badge on his chest, and raised his arms and shouted.
Hodgson was particularly excited.
Lin Yun will definitely be nervous if he doesn't score, but only Lin Yun scores and he is more nervous.
Thankfully, not all the others are really dead......
'This is Gerrard's third World Cup and this is his fourth goal. He played for the first time in 2006 and scored two goals; In 2010, Steven Gerrard played for South Africa as the heart of the team, but only scored one goal......
Three times and four goals, this is the data of normal people.
The Greek team, which was two goals behind, began to work hard, and the momentum once overpowered the England team, but it was scoreless, and England was not used to them.
Unfortunately, the essence of this game has been concentrated in the first half, and the second half was scoreless for both sides, and finally ended 2-0.
With goals from Lin Yun and Steven Gerrard, England eliminated Greece without danger and became the fourth team after Brazil, Colombia and the Netherlands to qualify for the quarter-finals of this World Cup.
Next opponent, the Netherlands!
Take a precautionary shot first, this World Cup will not be won~~
