Midfielder Ruler - v5 Chapter 134
Portugal defeated Russia 2-0 to advance to the quarterfinals, which gave Tang Zheng taking the bus to the Nizhny Novgorod Arena a great incentive, because while Portugal was upgrading to the quarterfinals, many media borrowed Portuguese promotion to hype Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Four years later, Cristiano Ronaldo is thirty-seven years old, and whether he can continue his career will have a big question mark, and four years later, Tang Zheng is also close to thirty-three years old, and his career will come to an end. The decline is inevitable …
In other words, once the Chinese team can beat Croatia to advance to the quarterfinals, Cristiano Ronaldo and Tang Zheng’s confrontation will appear again.
However, this matchup is different from the past, because the two represent their respective countries, and many media have thought about the title of that game in advance.
The Battle of Fate!
Cristiano Ronaldo and Tang Zheng competed for power in Real Madrid. The younger Tang Zheng won the infighting and stayed. Now it is possible that the duel in the World Cup will naturally attract everyone’s attention.
But before that, the Chinese team led by Tang Zheng must defeat Croatia led by club teammate Modric!
“Aoao Aoao–“
In a fanatical atmosphere, the Chinese players who arrived at the Nizhny Novgorod Arena warmed up before the game with great care and were in very good shape.
Of course, the player’s excellent condition has little to do with the fanatical atmosphere on the spot. The real reason is that the Xi Lao General Assembly was accompanied by Russian President Putin to watch this 1/8 final of the Chinese team and Croatia.
Know that Russia and Portugal ’s 1/8 finals Putin did not go to the scene, but instead asked Prime Minister Medvedev to attend the battle.
This shows how much importance Russian President Putin attaches to the first Russian World Cup match watched by Xi Bo.
I do n’t know whether it was because the media before the game revealed that Putin and Xi Lao General Assembly appeared in the Nizhny Novgorod Arena to watch the game. The top ten bookmakers in the world also adjusted the odds of both sides of the game. The original odds of Croatia were all the way. With the rise, the Chinese team’s odds have been adjusted to fall.
It is not difficult to see that the gaming companies are beginning to optimistic about the prospects of the Chinese team.
An hour before the start of the game, the starting list of both parties appeared on the FIFA official website.
Croatia sacrificed the usual four-two-three formation, goalkeeper Subacic, four defenders Strinic, Lovren, Vida and Fosarico, and double-backed Modric partner Rakitic, Three forwards Perisic, Brozovic and Rebic, Mandzukic topped the front line.
The official formation submitted by the Chinese team is also four two three one, goalkeeper Yan Junling, four guards Jiang Zhipeng, Feng Xiaoting, Gao Junyi and Peng, double back waist Tang Zheng partner Li Kui, three forwards Lu Liang, Hao Junmin and Wu Sanshi, Sun Jing Bo is at the top.
Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV can see the Chinese players warming up on the training ground through the live broadcast of CC5 TV. The Beijing studio commentator Shao Shengyi, who appeared on the left side of the broadcast screen, analyzed the camera with the Chinese team ’s starting lineup and said: “This Lippi did not send Zhang Yuzhen, a traditional center, or Ye Erfan, who performed well in the third round of the team, in the game. Instead, he chose Sun Jingbo. From the formation, it is easy to see that the Chinese team is To seize the wing with Croatia, whether it is Tang Zheng, Modric, Rakitic, has a strong long-pass transfer ability, in the case of a defense-based situation, long-pass counterattack is a very direct and practical tactic … … “
Although Shao Shengyi said in the live room, the Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV had no intention to listen to him. Their attention was focused on the Chinese players who occupied most of the broadcast screen.
On the eve of the war, the player’s condition is their focus.
And the Chinese players seen from the broadcast screen did not disappoint the fans in front of the TV. Each player’s mental state is very good.
If this amazing state can continue until the start of the game, Chinese fans have absolute confidence in the fans they support!
How about the overall strength of Croatia?
Our national team can still win the game!

“Aoao Aoao–“
Half an hour before the start of the game, both players have returned to their locker rooms to make final preparations for the upcoming game, but at this moment, a loud, deafening loud cry broke out from the stands.
Is so powerful that even Chinese players who close the locker door can hear it.
Lippi, who explained the key points of the game, paused, raised his eyebrows, and continued to explain.
Although Chinese fans in the locker room are curious, they are not curious, because for them the most urgent task is the upcoming game.
Time passed quickly. At 8:50 pm local time in Russia, the players of the Nizhniy Novgorod Arena and the visiting team’s locker room came to the player channel one after another. The fans sitting in front of the TV realized The fourth 1/8 final of the Russia World Cup between China and Croatia is coming soon.
Croatia and the Chinese team have many acquaintances, like Tang Zheng and Modric, Kovacic are Real Madrid teammates, Lu Liang and Lovren are Liverpool teammates, Peng and Manjukic are Juventus teammates, Pesilić 2011- He played in Dortmund for one season in 2012, but he was not reused by Klopp. He made his debut as a substitute, but his relationship with Tang Zheng was not bad, so he politely embraced him in the player channel. ,encourage.
Tang Zheng and Modric are the focus of the fans in front of the TV. As the captains of the Chinese team and Croatia, the two are also wearing the number ten jersey. The attention is naturally greater, so the close-up shot of the live guide is consciously taken care of Tang Zheng and Modric.
Tang Zheng and Modric did not pay attention to the sound outside the game, Tang Zheng was one head taller than Modric. Tang Zheng rubbed Modric’s flowing medium and long hair intimately, laughing: “Sorry, Luca , You have to pack your bags and go home tonight. “
Modric rolled his eyes, but he was not angry, but shrugged his shoulders: “Anyway, you will be quick to speak, and we will definitely win us!”
“Really?” Tang Zheng blinked: “Lucca?”
“Of course!” Modric said firmly: “We are much stronger than you.”
“Then … I hope you won’t cry.”
Tang Zheng grinned, holding Modric’s raised right hand.
“Relax, I will comfort you when you cry your nose.” Modric also gripped hard: “Who makes you my best partner? Right?”
“Hahaha, since that is the case, then see the difference in the game.”
“OK!”
Tang Zheng and Modric as captains of their respective teams have more arduous tasks. Naturally, they don’t have much time to chat in the player channel. After separation, they hug their teammates one by one and decompress the teammates.
To know that this game was watched by the head of state, Xi Boss, it is absolutely false to say that you are not nervous.
In a short time, the referee Pitana and his referee team led Croatian players wearing red and white plaid shirts and Chinese players wearing yellow shirts into the stadium.
“Aoao Aoao–“
Between the electro-optical flints, a huge scream like a mountain tsunami sounded over the Nizhny Novgorod Arena.
Whether it is a fan outside the stadium, or a fan in front of the TV, you can feel the surging feeling that comes from deep inside.
The competition to advance to the quarterfinals is about to start!
※※※
According to the schedule of the World Cup in Russia, the Chinese team is the visiting team, so the first national broadcast is the Chinese national anthem.
Every Chinese is respected at this time, including Xi Bo, who is accompanied by Putin and Infantino, and he and his wife have serious expressions, and sing the national anthem with the tone of the broadcast.
As one of the most watched leaders in the world political arena, Xi Lao Nature is under the spotlight of the live guide, so after giving a close-up shot of the Chinese starting player, he quickly switched to the VIP seat and gave Xi Bo a push to the face Close-up shot.
Fans sitting in front of the TV can not only see President Xi and Mrs. Xi through the broadcast, but also Russian President Vladimir Putin, FIFA President Infantino, and Croatian Prime Minister Andrea Plenkovic.
In this World Cup 1/8 finals, in addition to the stars shining in the stadium, the VIP seats are more than enough.
Of course, the fans are most concerned about the game itself.
After the Croatian national anthem was over, the players on both sides stood on one side, and the captain walked to the location of the referee Pitano to guess the ball.
Eventually Modric won the right to pick, and Tang Zheng naturally got the kick-off right.
Before the game started, the live broadcaster also gave the video referee a close-up picture of nearly five seconds. The six video referees that appeared on the broadcast screen will assist the referee Pitano in law enforcement.
He Wei, who is sitting in the stadium commentary, ca n’t wait for his voice. His voice is full of passion. He hysterically shouted: “The game is getting closer and closer to us! I think the fans sitting in front of the TV are just like me. I very much look forward to the Chinese team can beat Croatia to advance to the quarter-finals of this World Cup, because Ronaldo led Portugal has advanced to the quarterfinals, if the Chinese team can beat Croatia, the opponent to face in the quarter-finals will be Ronaldo led Portugal! “
At this moment, the referee, Pitana, blew his whistle in his mouth: “beep ~”
Sun Jingbo kicked the ball back to Tang Zheng outside the arc of the middle circle, and Manjukic led the ball to Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng didn’t stick the ball, and gave it directly to Zhongwei Gao Zhunyi. Manjukic turned a corner without loosing speed and rushed past.
“CCTV! CCTV! Now you are broadcasting the live match between the Chinese team and the Croatian team in the fourth 1/8 final of the 2018 World Cup in Russia. The Chinese team wearing yellow shirts and yellow shorts is the Chinese team. They broadcast from The right side of the screen is attacking to the left. The Croatian team is wearing red and white plaid shirts and black shorts. They attack from the left side of the screen to the right … “
At the same time, He Wei, the central 5 commentator, habitually spoke the opening remarks.
Gao Junyi crosses to Feng Xiaoting, who stops the ball slightly forward on the outside of his foot, and then passes directly to the frontcourt.
Because the passing position was too forward, Lovren pressed Sun Jingbo to complete the header.
Hao Junmin and Modric took off at the same time, but no one grabbed it. After the football hit the ground, Li Kui returned to the frontcourt in the Croatian defensive half-circle arc.
The Croatian left back Strinic, who was collected, jumped high, pressing Wu Sanshi, a symbolic jumper, and again pushed the ball to the middle circle.
The football flew to Tang Zheng’s control area. Brozovic and Rebic took off at the same time, but Tang Zheng was tall and judged the football landing point very accurately. He easily pushed the ball forward.
Although Sun Jingbo is 1.84 meters tall and has good jumping power, it is a pity that his body is obviously losing in front of Lovren, and football is pushed back by Lovren again.
Just like this, the football was pushed back and forth eight or nine times.
Until the football reached Tang Zheng’s control range again, he first stuck the position, stuck Brozovic behind him, and then put the ball forward in the chest. Before the football landed, he directly directed the football with the right foot arch, the football flew Defensive left rib to Croatia.
Because Tang Zheng’s pass was closer to Sun Jingbo, it was difficult for Lovren to get the football behind him. Fortunately, he responded quickly. While sticking to Sun Jingbo, he extended his left foot and poked the football to the sideline. Linic stretched his foot half a shot slow and the football came out of the sideline.
“Football was released by Lovren from the sideline, and the Chinese team won a frontline sideline.”
He Wei’s voice changed.
“Aoao Aoao–“
The game was just beginning. The loud voice in the stands was deafening, and Peng, who was about to throw the sideline, waved his arms and incited the passion of Chinese fans.
Peng took the football thrown by the staff on the sidelines and retreated enough distance.
“Peng is going to throw the sideline vigorously.” He Wei’s voice changed significantly and became more excited.
Most of the fans sitting in front of the TV are not fully prepared to watch the ball ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Still eating snacks and drinking beer …
The broadcast screen showed that more than six Chinese players entered the Croatian restricted zone, so that except Modric standing at the top of the arc of the big restricted zone, all the other nine players returned to the restricted zone to assist in defense.
“The Chinese team’s sideline ball.” Peng assists to throw the sideline ball, and the central 5 commentator He Weigao shouted: “The football is thrown far away, flying to the restricted area of Croatia!”
The three high points of Tang Zheng, Gao Zhunyi and Sun Jingbo are the key defensive targets of Croatian players, especially Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng, who was standing behind, gave up taking off under the pull of Lovren and Manjukic. Sun Jingbo, who was at the front, and Gao Junyi and Hao Junmin in the middle took off at the same time. Vida, Brozovic, Rakitic and Fossa Rico jumped.
But after jumping, they collided with each other, no one hit the football, and missed it.
Tang Zheng, who was ambushing at the back point, responded very quickly. When he saw the ball unconsciously, he lifted his long legs forward, using a very good sense of the ball to stop the ball under his feet, and then lifted his right foot, deceived Lovren to lie down .
As a result, Tang Zheng didn’t shoot, but used the inside of the right instep to slam the ball to the left. The speed of movement was not like a big man with a height of more than one meter nine.
The right foot stepped on the ground, and the left foot lifted naturally. In order to ensure the speed of the foot and increase the suddenness, Tang Zheng did not lift the thigh. His calf swinged, and the tip of his left foot poked towards the football.
Football rolled towards the corner of the goal against the turf. Rebich, who was in front of the goal post, did not kick the football. The goalkeeper, Subic, fell to the ground too late …
No one thought, the game was less than a minute, the Chinese team got a fantastic start!
