Chapter 260: Qualifying in advance

"…The 34th Olympic Games will open at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning at the Pasadena Stadium in Los Angeles. Speaking of this stadium, it is still the same as our Chinese football team. In the 2026 World Cup in the United States and Canada two years ago, the Chinese team

It was at this stadium that we tied with Brazil 3:3 and going back further, in 1999

The Chinese women's football team once lost to the United States team on this stadium, and unfortunately missed the world championship. This stadium will also be the venue for the finals of the Olympic football event.

"In the women's football match that ended last night, the Chinese women's football team performed well and defeated the Norwegian women's football team 4:2 and got a good start in the group stage. As a result, both men's and women's football teams won the championship in this Olympic Games.

victory.…

After Li Qingqing's camera disappeared from the TV screen, Xie Lan turned his gaze back and commented: "What is tacit understanding? This is it! The two of them must have discussed it in private to win together!

Hu Lixin did not refute his wife's statement, because it would be strange if his son and Li Qingqing did not make a private agreement about the Olympics.

After all, they are already boyfriend and girlfriend, a couple.

It's normal for couples to have some little secrets.

Maybe for the two of them, the Olympic Games is a super-sized "date?"

So after Hu Lai scored twice to help the Chinese Olympic team win the first game, he was not surprised at all when Li Qingqing also scored twice to help the women's football team win.

"Let me see who we will beat after our group advances."

Xie Lan started to look through the battle charts she had saved before.

She saw the women's football match first.

There are a total of twelve participating teams in the women's football team, divided into three groups. In order to distinguish them from the groups of the men's football competition, the groups of the women's football team are arranged starting from e, which are group e, group f and group g.

The top two teams in each group and the two best third-placed teams advance to the quarterfinals...

The Chinese women's football team is assigned to Group G and is the seed team in Group G.

Xie Lan agreed that the Chinese women's football team should be first in Group G. Then according to the rules, if the women's football team qualified as the first in the group, they would face a non-group third place in the quarter-finals. If the women's football team is ranked first in Group G,

If the third place in Group G does not qualify, the first place in Group G will face the third place in Group F.

But no matter which group we play against is third place, since we are third in the group, our strength will definitely not be much better.

The Chinese women's football team has great hopes of advancing to the semifinals.

Xie Lan was confused by the complicated rules of the women's football team, so she decided to see the situation on the men's football team.

Compared with the women's football team, the match rules of the men's football team are very fixed. The qualifying team of the Chinese team will compete with the qualifying team of Group D in the lower half.

Cross matchup.

Schellan hopes that the Olympic team can get first place in the group, although the German Olympic team is also very strong.

But when she looked at Group D, she immediately stopped worrying about whether the Chinese Olympic team would come first or second, because no matter whether it was first or second, the opponents in the quarter-finals were not easy to beat.

The four teams in Group D are Spain, the runner-up of the last Olympic Games, Brazil, the traditional football powerhouse, Senegal, the African representative, and Chile.

This group is the "Group of Death" in this Olympics. No matter who qualified, it will be difficult to win.

Especially the Spanish and Brazilian Olympic teams.

In the last Olympic Games, the Chinese Olympic team was eliminated by the host Spanish Olympic team in the quarter-finals.

Seeing this result, Xie Lan frowned and snorted.

"What's wrong?" Hu Lixin asked curiously.

“The shape is not good”

Hu Lixin was very surprised: "Didn't we just win one game? Why is the situation so bad?"

"I'm talking about the knockout situation!"

Hu Lixin couldn't laugh or cry: "I thought too far, we only played one game in the group stage!"

"Why is it so far away? Is there any suspense in the group stage? Except for the last game. As long as we win Fiji, we will qualify early. The only suspense is whether we are first or third." Hu Lixin said: "Yes, first and third."

The opponents in the second match are different, so it makes no sense for you to think so far now..."

"The problem is that no matter whether you are first or second, there is no difference between your opponents." Xie Lan showed the four teams in Group D to her husband.

After reading it, Hu Lixin also fell into deep thought, and then he also clicked his tongue.

Xielan continued: "The two groups in the lower half include the European Youth Championship champions Germany, runner-up Spain, and opponents like Brazil. In comparison, the upper half is simply too easy, with only Argentina. I doubt it.

The United States might have taken advantage of the host nation and tampered with the draw to arrange such a good draw for them. Xie Lan suddenly added in a very affirmative tone: "Yes, yes, that's definitely the case!"

Damn Americans! If you can’t win the track and field relay, you’ll have to rematch it.

When you lose, you accuse your opponent of taking medicine...Now football draws are using this dirty trick again! The heart is darker than the butthole, shameless!

Hu Lixin grinned when he heard his wife suddenly scolding the United States. He originally wanted to say "no conspiracy theories", but when he thought about the series of scandalous operations in the United States from top to bottom in recent years, he said this not only at the sports level.

I suddenly couldn't speak.

We can't blame his wife for the conspiracy theory, the Yankees really haven't done anything serious in all these years.

Judging from their usual behavior, it is not incredible that the United States takes advantage of the host country to arrange a relatively easy draw result for their team.

With the current grouping situation, as long as the US team takes first place in the group, it will definitely be able to avoid Agen in the quarter-finals, who should also be the first in the group, which is basically equivalent to being sent to the semi-finals.

Entering the semi-finals, the goal of winning a medal is not far away.

With better luck, or better "luck", you can still make it to the finals...

And once they reach the finals, it would be unreasonable not to win a gold medal, right?

So following this logic, Hu Lixin wants to follow his wife and scold Americans.

If we don’t react to Hu Lixin, what does it have to do with us how despicable the Americans are? They are in the top half. Unless the Olympic team reaches the semi-finals, there is no way they can meet them. If the Chinese team wins in the group stage

In second place, you can only meet the host country if you reach the finals.

So he advised: "You, you still think too much. What happens to Americans is not something we should consider. Let's wait until we actually meet...

Xie Lan also knew that her criticism of the United States was entirely out of a simple national sentiment and anger at the unfavorable situation of the Olympic team's knockout round.

So she no longer cares about Americans' black buttholes.

Let's see how it goes in the group stage first...

Yibi On August 7, the second day after the opening of the Olympic Games, the Chinese Olympic team faced its second opponent in the group stage.

Fiji Olympic team representing Oceania.

The team won last year's Pacific Games football championship and also qualified for this year's Olympics.

They defeated the powerful New Zealand Olympic team in the final, which was an upset - you must know that this was the first time that the Fiji Olympic team participated in the Olympics.

Before the game, almost all voices in China believed that there would be no suspense for the Olympic team to defeat Fiji. The only suspense was to win a few goals. After all, in the first round of the group stage, the German Olympic team defeated the Fiji Olympic team 10:0.

. Their main forward Nico Strauy scored five goals in the game. You must know that in the last Olympics, Hulay scored a total of five goals in four games and became the "top scorer" of that Olympics.

.

And now Strauhi has completed Hulay's goals in one Olympic Games in just one game.

Although there is no "top scorer" honor in the Olympics, fans will still discuss and compare.

Nico Strauy is a talented player trained by the strong Bundesliga team Vesseldorf, but he has an ill-fated fate. The 23-year-old has already suffered two major injuries in his career so far. This has affected

He has the upper limit of his career, so everyone is now more optimistic about Ruerrhein's Janus Edman. After all, Edman is younger than Straoui and is physically stronger.

Before participating in this Olympics, Strauy had just gone through seven months of injury recovery. In the Olympics, he scored five goals against Fiji, which allowed him to regain some form.

Germany's huge victory against Fiji, as well as Strauyi's five goals, made many people in China believe that it is easy for the Chinese team to win Fiji. Some people even asked Hulay to be better than Strauyi.

If you have more balls, otherwise it will be a failure. These people said plausibly: "Julei is the Champions League golden boot and La Liga golden boot. w What does Strauyi have? Since he can score five goals against Fiji, then Julebi

It's reasonable for him to score more goals, right? He can't be beaten by someone who has been seriously injured and missed almost a season, right? No, no? He can't really be beaten, right? In that case, I always feel that Hu Lai has no growth and development at all.

Progress? For people who say this, I really don’t know whether they are Hu Lai’s fans or black men.

In response to these people, Hu Lai scored four goals in this game, helping the Chinese Olympic team defeat the Fiji Olympic team 8:0.

The Olympic team did not capsize in the gutter, but Hulay did not score more goals than Straui, and even missed one...

He did not play the full game and was replaced by head coach Mai Zhaocheng with substitute forward Tian Yuan with 24 minutes left in the game.

Hu Lai showed no dissatisfaction at all when he was replaced.

This shows that he does not want to compete with Strauyi in terms of goals.

On the contrary, he had a smile on his face when he came off the field and waved frequently to the cheering Chinese fans in the stands.

The Olympic team won two games, scored 11 goals, and did not concede a single goal. It has already qualified for the group ahead of schedule.

Compared with four years ago, it is indeed worthwhile to qualify from the group so easily.

The number of goals scored is less than that of Strauy. In the eyes of Hu Lai today, it is a trivial matter and will not affect his mood at all.
