After the players from both sides walked onto the court, there was a process of lining up for media reporters to take photos. In the past, this process was for photographers to focus their cameras on the players of both teams who were starting @JingShuGe.
But something is different today.
Half of the photographers were still taking pictures of the players on the court as before.
But the remaining half of the photographers turned their backs to the starting players of @京书馆, and all crowded onto the Italian team’s bench, focusing their cameras on Selius Caesar, who was wearing a substitute vest and sitting on it.
This is the first time in Kaiser's 102 consecutive national team games that @Jingshuge did not start.
How could you miss such a memorable scene?
Although the media and fans have scolded him and made fun of him over the past year, they still know very well who is their father. In an era when traffic is king, the most trafficked King Caesar is naturally these media and self-media
They are their "food and clothing parents". "***, that's an exaggeration..." Meng Xi said with emotion in front of the projection screen. "A substitute stole the limelight from all the starting players at @京书馆!"
Tang Yuan said in a tone of pride or helplessness: "This is the 'Great Emperor, Caesar..."
Caesar's expression in the camera is calm as usual.
It's as if this isn't the first time he's been on the bench... It's certainly not the first time he's been on the bench. In the season that just ended, he didn't serve as a substitute once or twice with the Turin Bulls. But in the club
No matter what, the topic is not as hot as the World Cup.
Because the World Cup is an event that people all over the world who know football and those who don’t know football will pay attention to.
At the World Cup, even if you accidentally move the drink bottle on the interview desk, it may immediately become a hot topic sweeping the world:
Why did you move this cigarette bottle? Why didn't you move the other bottles? What's the special meaning of moving it to the right side of your body instead of the left? In the first round of the group stage, Hu Lai's kick-off from the center circle scored directly.
It has become a hot topic around the world in the past five days.
Regardless of whether you watch football or not, everyone knows about Hu Lai's super world wave that shocked the world.
Various discussions, reports and secondary creations about this super world wave are also very popular.
Many people exclaimed: "Oh my god! Football can still be played like this!" "I don't know much about football, but is it okay to score like this?"
Someone also taught everyone how powerful and amazing it is to score a goal directly from the center circle.
A foreign artist painted graffiti on a long stretch of wall on the street, depicting the entire process of Hu Lai's goal, which became a photo-taking spot for Internet celebrities.
But in fact, this is not the first time Hulay has scored such a goal in a game.
He also reached the Champions League final.
With the attention paid to the Champions League finals, it has not achieved the level of success it has today.
This is the power of the World Cup.
Even though the Champions League has already surpassed the World Cup in terms of technical gold content, its global influence is still not as good as the World Cup. The only thing that can be compared with an event like the World Cup is the Olympic Games.
But the Olympic Games is a comprehensive sports event, while the World Cup is an individual event.
If you look at one event alone, if you break down the Olympics, no single event can beat the World Cup. ※※※
After the national anthems of both teams were played and the players of the two teams shook hands and paid tribute, the captains of both teams came to the referee and prepared to do the most important thing - to pick a side.
Originally, picking sides was just a routine procedure before the game, a necessary ritual, but it was not the "most" important.
Because no matter which side you choose as your half, or whether you choose to kick off first, it actually has little impact on the game.
Unless it is a "yin-yang field" where the sun shines directly on a certain half of the court. But the Casavalla stadium for today's game is not designed as a yin-yang field, and this game is played in the evening. The sun is setting, and the stadium's
The tracer lights are turned on and the sunlight no longer affects the game.
So no matter who wins the coin guessing game, there is nothing to be happy about, it is just a fixed procedure that must be followed.
But this time it's different.
When the side picker was thrown into the air by the referee, both the Chinese team captain Wang Guangwei and the Italian captain Petro Nazari stared at the flipped coin. Nazari chose the one with
On the football side, Wang Guangwei still made the same choice as in the last game, with the World Cup side.
After the football flipped from mid-air and fell to the turf, the two captains looked down at the turf below at the same time and almost bumped their heads together. World Cup up!
Wang Guangwei couldn't hide his excitement, he gritted his teeth hard.
Then, without even waiting for the referee to ask him what he chose, he made a "football" gesture and told the referee that he wanted the kick-off! The expression on the opposite side of the Italian captain Nazzari suddenly became a little ugly -
He originally wanted to seize the kick-off right... Seeing Wang Guangwei's excited look, he guessed what the Chinese team was going to do with the kick-off right.
After finishing the side challenge, Nazari returned to his own half and found goalkeeper Albertazzi. "Mauro, you have to be careful, the Chinese team has the right to kick off."
Albertazzi clapped his hands together: "It doesn't matter, I will take action."※※※
"Done. The rest is up to you."
After Wang Guangwei returned to his own half, he also ran over and patted Hu Lai on the shoulder.
Then he added: "But don't put any pressure on me. It doesn't matter if you can't get in. You can scare them."
"good."
Hu Lai agreed and took out the second [World Wave Experience Card] from his system space. This was the prop that the system rewarded him after he successfully defended the Champions League for the first time after completing the reform. This is also what he currently has.
The last [World Wave Experience Card] I own.
If he still wants to use it in the future, he can only redeem it with points.
This thing costs one million points. It is very rare and cannot be obtained casually. Otherwise, if he uses this thing to shoot in every game, wouldn't he be invincible?
But what’s the point of football like that?
Zhou Zijing knew that Hu Lai was going to shoot directly, so he said to Hu Lai: "How about Xu do it alone?"
He didn't want to be Hu Lai's backdrop.
Unexpectedly, Hu Lai said: "No, elbow spirit, you can kick the ball forward a little later."
"Ah?" Zhou Zijing was a little surprised.
Then he realized, what the hell? He was trying to get an assist?!
"If you don't want to, I can do it myself." Seeing Zhou Zijing's hesitation, Hu Lai said.
"It's not necessary." Zhou Zijing said calmly, "Just kick him forward, it's not a big deal. Since you are asking for something from me, how can I have the heart to refuse? How could Hu Lai not guess Zhou Zijing?
What is he thinking? But if he sees through it and doesn’t tell it, he still has to count on him to paralyze the Italian players a little bit.
If he is still standing far away in the center circle like he was in the last game, then any fool will know what he is going to do next.
But this time, he stood on the center line with Zhou Zijing. There was no running distance, which probably made that boy Albertazzi unable to guess his thoughts.
He looked at Albertazzi's position and found that he had indeed not retreated to the goal line.
I don’t know if I was fooled...
Hu Lai is not sure either, but he will not dwell on it and will execute it according to his plan.
※※※
"Hu Lai and Zhou Zijing entered the center circle and prepared to kick off. But this time he did not stand on the line of the center circle..."
When the commentator He Feng said this, there was a smile in his voice.
Everyone knows why he laughs.
Now when talking about kick-off, everyone will think of Hulay's goal in the last game.
"Ah? Could it be that Hu Lai just kicked off the ball and shot without hitting the circle this time?"
Some people online looked disappointed.
"What are you thinking about? Where is it so easy to score a goal? Just score when you say it?"
"Isn't it possible? Hu Laike has scored twice!"
"Is it okay to score a goal in every game? Will you always play with a score of 1:0 in the future?"
"Haha, it's totally okay!"
"I told you to respect Italy! They were the last World Cup champions!"
‘Is the iceberg very strong? Hu Lai conquered him five times!”
"Albertazzi: I may not be a human, but you are real dogs!"
Chinese fans chatted happily on the Internet. Regardless of whether they really thought Hu Lai could replicate another goal from the center circle, at least everyone was happy.
You must know that this time the Chinese team is also facing the world champion.
Just five days ago, think about the Chinese team's first group match before facing the defending champion Spain. Many Chinese fans were still worrying about gains and losses before the game, and were preoccupied to the point of neurosis. It seemed that the entire Chinese team had breakfast in the morning.
affect the outcome of the game.
Wanting to win but afraid of losing, I think a draw is acceptable but not willing to accept a draw.
The fans are very nervous, fearing that losing too badly will destroy their morale.
How can you still think about joking?
And the calmness they are showing now is precisely because they won the first game.
And it was a complete victory of 3:0.
For a time, Chinese fans were full of confidence. In addition, their opponent this time was Italy, which was tied with Nigeria in the first round of the group stage, which made them feel that it was nothing more than that.
As long as the Chinese team can defeat Italy in this game, it will achieve two consecutive victories and advance to the top 16 one round in advance.
Albertazzi is indeed very strong, and Italy is also good at defense, but our Chinese team has a European-level offensive lineup, plus the world's top striker Hu Lai, is it not difficult to score a goal?
As long as one goal is a small victory and three points are obtained, there is no need to consider the goal difference at all, because the remaining three teams in the same group cannot threaten the status of the Chinese team. In the last round of the game against Nigeria, as long as China does not lose by a large score, China
Each team will surely win first place in the group, and then compete against Group H for second place.
At present, it is likely to be Sweden.

Hulay once again confirmed Albertazzi's location.
He found that the Italian goalkeeper did not retreat to the goal line, and of course, did not rush out of the penalty area. Instead, he stood slightly in front of the penalty spot.
It can be considered a normal position.
So he said to Zhou Zijing: "Knock the football forward when the whistle blows." "Yes." Zhou Zijing nodded very reservedly.
Immediately afterwards, the referee blew his whistle!
"The game begins!"
Zhou Zijing gently knocked the football forward.
Follow Hu Lai towards the football!
Bang!
He kicked the football towards the goal before Italian striker Daniele Dikunzo rushed to intercept him! Dikunzo looked back in despair...
As Hulay's teammate in the Pirates, Di Kunzo knows only too well how powerful he is.
But then he saw goalkeeper Alberta flying in the air, holding the football above the crossbar behind him with one hand!
