N-A-A Chapter 330
Chapter 330
The group stage of the World Cup is very tight.
Also on June 14, in Group F, Croatia defeated Brazil 3:2.
Group E, Azzurri Italy vs. African Black Star Ghana.
Samsung Italy is always the favorite to win the World Cup, and Ghana men's football is also four-star, but it is the champion of the African Cup for four times. This is a classic match between European football and African football.
It is worth mentioning that in May, the world scandal "Phone Gate" just broke out in Italian football, which undoubtedly gave Italian football and fans a blow. When the field is not fair, competitiveness seems to be a joke.
However, the Azzurri withstood the pressure of international public opinion and easily defeated Ghana 2:0, showing the strength of Samsung Italy.
...
Group G, South Korea vs. African Sparrowhawk Togo.
As the top four players in the last World Cup, the fact is that South Korea is indeed the team with the most World Cup finals in the entire Asian region. This is their 7th World Cup journey.
The game was extremely tense. Facing internal and external troubles, Togo's head coach resigned three days before the World Cup due to salary issues. The level of the pseudo-top four of South Korea was fully exposed without the advantage of the host country.
It was not until the 71st minute that South Korea scored a long shot in front of the penalty area by substitute Ahn Jung-hwan, taking a 2-1 lead and maintaining it until the last minute of the game.
Group G, Gallic rooster France vs. Swiss Army Knife.
France, which was highly anticipated by fans in the last World Cup but did not win a single game in the group stage and failed to enter the top 16, completely lost the style of the defending champion of the 1998 World Cup.
Facing the new European team Switzerland, which entered the World Cup finals again after two sessions, France was unable to blast the opponent's door for 90 minutes. The whole game was 0:0, continuing the embarrassing situation of its hard-to-win situation in the last World Cup.
...
Group H, Spanish bullfighters vs. Ukrainian Cossack cavalry.
Fans' expectations for the Spanish men's football team are like their expectations for the English men's football team. Spain, which owns the La Liga, has never lacked stars. But in the last World Cup, they were ambitious but fell in front of the black whistle of the Korean host.
In this World Cup, the Spanish men's football team, led by the legendary head coach Aragones, once again proved the value of the Spanish men's football team to the world with a 4:0 victory.
Group H, Carthage Eagle Tunisia vs. Desert Storm Saudi Arabia.
As the two teams recognized as the last in the strength ranking of this World Cup, Tunisia and Saudi Arabia fully interpret what it means to be a chicken pecking each other.
You score one, I score one, and finally shake hands and end in a draw with 2:2.
...........................................
The first round of the game has temporarily come to an end, and all 32 teams in this World Cup have completed their debut.
There is no doubt.
Croatia's 3:2 reversal of Brazil became the biggest upset in the first round.
And Su Fei also successfully ranked first in the scorer list of this World Cup with 3 goals.
However.
After all, this is just a group match, and it is the first match.
The favorites to win this World Cup are still the traditional powers such as Italy, Brazil, Germany, France, and Argentina.
No one thinks.
Croatia can replicate the third place dark horse miracle in 1998.
Just like the analysis of Guus Hiddink, the head coach of the Australian men's football team.
After being shocked, most people analyzed the game and quickly concluded that it was the Brazilian men's football team that underestimated the opponent, which gave the Croatian men's football team a chance.
Of course.
The fans are still looking forward to Su Fei. No matter how much the Brazilian men's football team underestimated the opponent, Su Fei was real and sent the football into the door of the Brazilian men's football team three times.
Moreover.
Su Fei's wonderful highlights of pendulum passing and overhead kick can directly reflect the excellent physical talent of this young Croatian player.
Many fans.
began to pay attention to the match between Croatia and Australia on June 18.
Among them.
There are fans of other national teams who hope to see Su Fei being indistinguishable from the crowd, and of course there are also many people who expect Su Fei to continue to score magical goals.
The media.
A section was also set aside to warm up for the match between Croatia and Australia.
"Preview before the game! Checkered Army vs Kangaroos Army!"
"The duel between the 1st and 2nd place in Group F, a key battle to determine the group's qualifying spots!"
"Can Croatia's Rhapsody be staged again? "
"Expert: It is difficult for Su Fei to replicate the miracle of his debut, and Australia will definitely carry out targeted defense against the following weaknesses of Su Fei!》
Under such public opinion.
June 18.
Early in the morning.
Su Fei followed his teammates and boarded a flight to Schalke.
Croatia will play against the Australian men's football team at the current home of the Bundesliga team Schalke 04, the Veltins Arena.
......................................................
When the team bus slowly approached the Veltins Arena.
Outside the stadium.
The huge crowds of fans of the Checkered Army made Su Fei feel like he was back to Croatia's home court today.
Such a posture and the number of fans outside the stadium.
It was the last time against Brazil, the crazy Samba fans. When Croatian fans noticed the team bus carrying their men's football team.
"Here we go!"
"Come and meet our heroes!"
"Come on! Come on!!"
"Ahhh, I love you, Su!"
The fans of the Checkered Army were agitated, and the Croatian flag was waving in the crowd, and many supporting placards were shaking.
Su Fei and his teammates couldn't help but open the window.
They stuck their heads out and enthusiastically extended their hands to greet the fans and respond.
Such an action.
Immediately made the fans even crazier, and the fans rushed to the bus crazily, densely packed, with heads shaking.
The bus was forced to stop.
The German driver turned around helplessly and said jokingly.
"If this continues, we can only apply for a helicopter to fly our bus into the stadium."
The players of the Croatian men's football team closed the windows a little embarrassedly.
The enthusiasm that the Croatian men's football team received today.
Not only from the fans.
When Su Fei followed his teammates to the stadium and passed the public interview area.
The media reporters from various countries who arrived in advance.
Immediately launched a bombardment on the players of the Croatian men's football team, especially Su Fei.
Su Fei used a game to make himself the biggest darling of the Premier League media during the period of the Premier League magic Su.
"Su Fei, how do you feel about yourself?"
"Su Fei, do you think you can score for the team today?"
"Su Fei, is Ronaldo your idol?"
"Su Fei, have you ever imagined lifting this year's World Cup?"
The questions from the media were flying everywhere.
Su Fei smiled and nodded, gestured frequently, but did not stop to answer questions.
This disappointed the reporters. Compared to Su Fei, they still preferred those South American stars who talked endlessly.
However.
Su Fei never cared about the media's opinion of him.
Professional football player.
In the final analysis.
It is enough to rely on the performance on the field to speak.
On the other side.
Kranjcar also hurried to the scene of the pre-match press conference.
