On the second day of July, the climate in Brazil is still hot.

But for fans around the world, the event has entered a more emotional stage.

Eight quarter-finals have decided the winner.

Most of the strong teams defeated weaker opponents and advanced to the quarterfinals.

And in the rookie pecking between Costa Rica and Greece, "Pirates of the Caribbean" had the last laugh.

With the supernatural performance of goalkeeper Navas, Costa Rica reached the quarterfinals of the World Cup for the first time!

This is Costa Rrico's best record at a World Cup!

Regardless of the final result, this Costa Rican team has already created a miracle that will be remembered by thousands of fans!

The list of opponents for the quarterfinals has also been released:

"Gallic Rooster" France vs "Germanic Chariot" Germany;

"Samba Army" Brazil VS "Three Lions" England;

"Pampas Eagles" Argentina VS "European Red Devils" Belgium;

"Orange Legion" Netherlands VS "Pirates of the Caribbean" Costa Rica!

These four matchups are all full of topicality, and they are all worthy of discussion by the media and fans.

For Brazilian fans, though, there's only one thing they care about:

Beat England and reach the last four!

The Three Lions have also ushered in the "strongest" opponent so far in this World Cup

July 5th.

Fortaleza, Castellon Stadium.

Even standing in the players' tunnel, you can clearly hear the high singing of the Brazilian fans in the stadium:

"I'm Brazilian and I'm proud and loved!"

"I Am Brazilian" is a song that was born 65 years ago and was written by a high school teacher for a ball game between his students and students from Germany.

However, this version was not well known because of the outdated lyrics and melodies, until it was discovered by fans at this World Cup, and it was rejuvenated after rewriting the lyrics and composing the music.

In almost every Brazil match, fans chant the song before the kick-off to cheer on the hosts.

Vardy, who was standing in front of Ling Feng, suddenly turned around and asked Ling Feng:

"What are they singing?"

In this game, due to Rooney's injury, Vardy, who scored the winning goal in the last game, got a valuable opportunity to start!

It is worth mentioning that Jamie Vardy, who scored two goals as a substitute twice, is also the player with the most goals in this World Cup among the Three Lions.

Faced with Vardy's question, Ling Feng looked confused:

"You ask me? Who do I ask? ”

"I saw you talking to the Colombian 10 last time, and I thought you could understand Spanish."

"I used English, and I gestured."

Just as the two were discussing whether they could learn Spanish or not, there was a sudden sound of footsteps on the smooth ground in the corridor on the other side.

Turning his head, he saw the captain of the Brazilian team, Thiago Silva, leading the way, followed by the rest of the Brazilian team.

Looking at the familiar names and faces appearing in front of him, Ling Feng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Thiago Silva, Marcelo, Cesar, McConn, Alves.

However, compared to the excitement and excitement when he first debuted and saw the star, Ling Feng is now a lot more reserved in his heart.

Moreover, this Brazilian team can be called the weakest Brazilian team in history.

Compared with the five-star Brazil team that exploded in 2002, the star has dimmed more than a little.

At the end of the show is the new generation of Brazilian leaders who have high hopes, the number one superstar of the Samba Army - Neymar!

Looking at Neymar, who had a Moxican hairstyle and a cool face, Ling Feng couldn't help but turn his thoughts.

Twenty-two-year-old Neymar is undoubtedly the absolute core of this samba army!

Since his debut at Santos in the Brazilian league, Neymar's talent has been visible to the naked eye and he has been hailed as "Brazil's future leader"

After transferring from Santos to Barcelona last year, Neymar, who debuted in the five major leagues, is like a greedy sponge, frantically absorbing nutrients and growing rapidly by Messi's side.

Especially in a league like La Liga, which is suitable for technical players, Neymar is like a fish in water.

In the first La Liga season, he contributed all-around statistics for Double 15, and ranked seventh in the final Ballon d'Or.

Ling Feng also knows very well that in the upcoming 14~15 season, Neymar will usher in the first peak of his career.

After Premier League striker Suarez transferred to Barcelona, Barcelona's Messi, Suya, and Neymar formed the "MSN" combination that shocked the world football world.

MSN, which can be called the strongest trio in history, killed all sides in the 14~15 season, helping Barcelona win La Liga, Copa del Rey, and Champions League three championships, and achieve the triple crown.

With this year's excellent performance, Neymar ranked third in the goal award selection, second only to Melo.

This samba dancer has since become one of the ranks of the "third person in the world".

As we all know, there are many third people in the world.

It's just that in the era when the peerless duo dominated the football world, other players could only get third in the highest ranking of the Ballon d'Or.

So, gradually, there was that famous saying: the peerless double pride of iron, the third person in the world of flowing water!

And in the list of "third people in the world", all of them are top superstars.

Neymar is not the first world third man Ling Feng has faced.

Chelsea's "King of the Ball" Eden Hazard, at his peak, was also hailed by fans as the world's third best player.

However, only Neymar is the third person in the world who is widely recognized by fans!

Speaking of which, Neymar has to thank himself.

If it weren't for his appearance to help England eliminate Colombia, Neymar would most likely face Colombia in the quarter-finals, just like the original history, when he was injured by Suniga and bid farewell to this World Cup.

"The big war is coming, what the hell am I thinking"

Thinking of this, Ling Feng also felt that his thoughts were ridiculous, and couldn't help but show a self-deprecating smile.

But it didn't come to pass, and Neymar happened to set his sights on his side.

The two of them looked at each other and froze.

Ling Feng doesn't speak Spanish or Portuguese.

Otherwise, he would definitely talk to Neymar about the weather in Brazil.

Compared to the cold and humid climate of England, Brazil's climate is the other extreme.

It's hot, and it's humid!

After spending half a month in Brazil, Ling Feng finally understood why Premier League players choose to go to Spain, Italy and other places for vacation in the off-season.

The reason is simple, the climate of the Iliban Peninsula and the Apennine Peninsula is as warm as spring and so comfortable!

In desperation, Ling Feng had no choice but to show Neymar an embarrassed but polite smile, and then nodded.

At the same time, I did not forget to make up my mind secretly:

When the World Cup is over, be sure to learn some Spanish!

Otherwise, if you have the opportunity to meet Messi, who speaks Spanish, next time, you can't take the opportunity to chat with the other party.

That's so blue and skinny

In the face of Ling Feng's kindness, Neymar was stunned for a moment, and then smiled back.

"This Englishman seems to be very easy to get along with"
