Shrouded in the fierce atmosphere of the whole game, players from both sides held the hands of the caddies and walked out of the players' tunnel.

Chen Yufeng stood in the back row of the Belgian queue, breathing quickly on this hot field.

A year ago, he was a fringe figure at Tottenham, and a year later, he is standing on the continental stage at the heart of world football.

The stories and changes that took place this year undoubtedly gave him a stronger idea of impacting the highest honor and a stronger motivation.

The European Championship starts with the Italy team in front of you......

Looking at the Italian lineup, Chen Yufeng saw Buffon and Pelle, both of whom were figures at the end of Italy's golden generation.

Since the World Cup victory, Serie A has begun to decline, and countless football circles have talked about various doors, which has caused the country's football to be in turmoil.

But today, this team still has a good fighting ability, and it must not be underestimated.

"CCTV, welcome to the Stade de Lyon, the next thing you will see is a match in Group E of the European Championship, Belgium against Italy!

Zhu Xiaoyu, the Chinese on-site commentator of the game, began to broadcast for the audience in front of the TV, "It can be said that the Lyon stadium is half of the flames and half of the sea in this night!" ”

"Half passion, half elegance! But both teams share the same goal, which is to compete for the dream of the championship! ”

"In this game, Italy is a five-three-two formation, and the back line is still a place where they shine brightly, from left to right, Darmian, Chiellini, Bonucci, Barzagli, Candreva."

"It's a first-class defence, and we'll see if the Belgian Horsemen can break through them."

"In midfield, the three midfielders Giaccherini, De Rossi, Parolo, forwards Eder and Pelle, and Immobile are not in the starting lineup."

On the other hand, the Belgian team, it is worth mentioning that the Chinese player Chen Yufeng started the game and gained full trust in the first game. ’

"Other online ......"

While the commentary was being introduced, the pre-game activities on the field were also being carried out intensely.

Belgium captain Eden Hazard and Italy captain Gianluigi Buffon stand in the centre circle, picking sides and flipping the ball.

The rest of the players were on the pitch, cuddling shoulder to shoulder, ready for the final cheer.

Chen Yufeng is wearing the No. 6 jersey today, and in this kind of continental event, the players cannot choose too large numbers.

Mr. Wilmots's request for him was denied, and he had no choice but to settle for the No.6 race.

It's not really a big problem, it's just related to 6.

It's just that Witsel, the owner of the original No. 6 jersey, can only choose to wear the No. 17 jersey to play.

It didn't take long for all the players to hug each other and give their final cheers with resolute eyes.

"I'll count one, two, three, everyone shouts together, come on."

Hazard placed his hand in the center of the crowd, "One, two, three!" ”

"Come on!!" Everyone shouted and came to their places.

They lined up the 4231 position, and there were no changes in personnel and the two warm-up games.

In his pre-match tactical instructions, Wilmots set the overall premise of the formation, intending to take advantage of the strong attack first.

"Beep!!"

When all the players on both sides are on their feet, the referee officially blows the whistle for the start of the game.

The first match of the Belgian team in this European Championship has officially begun.

Italy were the first to serve, with Pelle kicking the ball to Parolo and then opening up the backcourt pass.

Belgium's three lines struck quickly and swept into Italy's backfield with unstoppable momentum.

"Bang!"

Eventually, by the time the ball reached Buffon's feet, Belgium's line had penetrated to the edge of the box.

Buffon had no choice but to kick the ball off the touchline and give it to Belgium.

Belgian full-back Vertonghen tossed the ball to De Bruyne, who turned and moved wide to find Eden Hazard on the left.

Hazard faced Candreva's defence and tried to break through without success, and was eventually kicked off the line by Candreva.

Corner kick.

"Bang!"

De Bruyne quickly stood up in the left-hand corner area and sent it straight to the back post.

After Lukaku and Leonardo Bonucci both rose to the top, Chen Yufeng, who was in this position, jumped with Barzagli.

"Bang!!"

In the confusion, Chen Yufeng's judgment seemed to be more accurate, and his forehead took the first step to touch the football.

However, under the interference of Barzagli, the ball still went high.

"What a pity! The first kick of the Belgian team in this game came from the best player of this year's Premier League, Chen Yufeng! ”

The on-site commentator Zhu Xiaoyu spoke very passionately, "This is a good attempt, and it may also be the direction of the next game." ”

"This luxurious lineup must be pressing Italy to launch a siege."

"And Conte's team will most likely choose defensive counter-attacking tactics to top the top."

As he said, the Belgian players did bombard Italy in the following period.

Eden Hazard and Kevin De Bruyne roamed up front and continued to threaten.

Chen Yufeng also got a lot of opportunities to receive the ball at this stage, but he has not yet made a breakthrough and crossed.

This kind of intercontinental level event gives him the feeling that it is fast as soon as it comes up.

The cooperation of the players may not be as tacit as the club, but they are very active in running, and every technical action is very resolute and fast, and they must be in their best condition.

This kind of competition is undoubtedly more challenging.

You'll face opponents with high morale, and opponents who won't give up until the last minute.

If you can score a goal here, the gold content it represents is extraordinary.

"Bang!"

In the twelfth minute of the game, De Bruyne handed the ball to Chen Yufeng on the side.

Chen Yufeng seized the opportunity to break through the Italian wing-back Darmian.

It was still the same set of familiar movements, his body swung sharply, and his feet straddled left and right, which soon made Damian have some intention to step forward and steal.

"Bang." Chen Yufeng, who seized the opportunity, quickly chose to go down, and Yu Guang aimed at the position in the middle and sent a cross.

The ball quickly headed towards Lukaku's head, and Lukaku's snatch was absolutely top-notch, bypassing Chieria to the spot.

"Bang!!"

But the header that followed was a bit disappointing.

Straight off the ball and gave Buffon a goal kick.

Buffon, who was still waiting for it just now, saw this scene and immediately gave a thumbs up and praised Lukaku.

The minutes passed like this, and soon it was more than 20 minutes into the game.

Belgium, who had been unable to attack for a long time, began to be a little impatient, and they seemed to be unable to find a good way to break through the Italian defense for the time being.

"Bang!!"

Soon, Nainggolan, who received the second penalty after receiving the cross, hurriedly completed a long-range shot, which was saved by Buffon.

"Fuck it!"

Nainggolan complained, which added to the anxiety of the attacking players in the frontcourt.

Italy began to attack in quick succession over the ensuing period, finishing with the first and second shots of the game.

At the moment, it seems that there is little threat, and it is all under the control of Courtois.

"Bang!!"

It wasn't until the 31st minute that centre-back Leonardo Bonucci sent a penetrating long ball straight towards Giaccherini.

The ball was passed very suddenly and very accurately.

The ball went over Alderweireld's head and began to fall in front of Giaccherini.

By the time the ball was stopped, Giaccherini had even entered the box.

"Bang!!"

The next right-footed shot was sent straight into the bottom right corner of the net.

“Yeahhhhhhh……！！”

The Italian fans in the stadium burst into cheers, as if they were about to lift the roof of the entire stadium.

"The ball is in! Giaccherini!! Italy leads 1-0! ”

In the commentary area, Zhu Xiaoyu's excited shouts sounded: "The Belgian team, which besieged the entire half, did not score, but Italy seized a chance to score and lead!" ”

'Let's take a look at it again and it was a very good long ball, Alderweireld came up and Giaccherini took the opportunity to finish the killing blow coldly!

"Congratulations to the Italians, they may be able to do a better job of counter-attacking!"

“……”

The Italian players in the away white jersey rushed to the stands of the Italian fans to celebrate at this moment.

All the players of the Belgian team walked towards their positions with their heads down, and they were a little stunned by the ball.

Previously, they had been playing closed warm-up matches, and it had been a long time since they had played under the cheers of the fans and under high exposure.

At this moment, as soon as the cheers of the whole stadium and the disappointed scolding of the Belgian fans came out, every player was a little frustrated and anxious.

Wilmots also hugged his head regretfully on the sidelines, but he didn't expect that it was Italy who scored first in this game.

He walked back to the coach's seat and sat down, a little unsure of what to do.

"The defense can't be done, the offense can't be hit, hey!" Mertenston, who was on the bench, grabbed the handle again and said: "A good performance in the warm-up game does not seem to mean that the main game is good." ”

"I think it's still up to someone with more experience to be in that position."

Carrasco, who was next to him, didn't speak, kept looking at the pitch, slightly distracted.

He was very scared that the team would fall into the curse of the previous main game, aiming to win the championship, but was eliminated early due to many factors.

On one side of the stands, Taylor Swift and the female assistant glanced at each other, both with some disappointment in their expressions.

They definitely couldn't say who they were more supportive, they just sat in the Belgian team area and were infected by the atmosphere around them.
