"CCTV, CCTV, good afternoon everyone! We are broadcasting live to you at the Pasadena Stadium in Los Angeles. The final round of Group B of the 23rd World Cup, between the Chinese team and the world
Champions Brazil!”
He Feng's voice reached Zhong Shihao's ears through wireless Bluetooth headsets.
He was standing in the subway car, holding the lifting ring with one hand and holding his mobile phone sideways with the other hand. On the small screen was the scene of the game.
He saw that players from both sides had already positioned themselves according to their formations in their respective half-courts.
Just wait for the referee to blow his whistle.
Zhong Shihao is definitely not the only person in this subway car to do this.
He raised his head, flexing his neck which was a little uncomfortable because he had lowered his head for too long. By the way, he saw the multimedia screen in the subway car, which was playing a preview video of today's game.
Looking around, there were many people like him, holding mobile phones and wearing headphones, watching the game intently.
Perhaps because many companies and units have postponed their working hours today, the subway in the morning rush hour is emptier than usual, but there are still many people going out at this time.
Those who had to go out used their mobile phones to watch the live broadcast of the game.
Zhong Shihao even saw some people in the crowd holding tablets to watch the game.
The screen is larger than that of a mobile phone and looks better. But it is also less portable than a mobile phone. In order to watch the football well, everyone really works hard...
Fortunately, this is China, and there is still 5G signal in the subway, which can ensure that so many people can watch the live game without any interruption of the Internet.
"The game kicks off at 5pm local time in Los Angeles on the 25th, and Beijing time should be at 8am on the 26th... At this time, I believe there must be many fans in China on their way to work.
On the subway, on the bus... watch this game on your mobile phone. Please also pay attention to safety, don't drive to watch the game, and don't drive to watch the game!"
Yan Kang smiled and said: "I hope the Chinese team can use a wonderful game today to bring a good mood and a good start to everyone's new day!"
※※※
In front of the TV, Xie Lan, who had just finished singing the national anthem with the players on the TV broadcast, sat down, just like the Chinese team fans at the scene, following the etiquette of watching a game.
In Xie Lan's words, this is called "a sense of ritual."
Although they did not go to the Pasadena Stadium in Los Angeles, in this way they were with the Chinese fans at the scene and the Chinese team players on the court.
Li Qingqing also sat down with Aunt Xie, waiting for the game to start.
The Pasadena stadium, which has always been noisy, has gradually become quiet.
The voice of the commentator He Feng sounded particularly clear: "The referee is looking at the time, the game is about to start..."
When the entire stadium became completely silent, the crisp whistle soared into the sky and was transmitted to the other side of the distant ocean through satellite signals, ringing in thousands of households across the country.
"Game start!!"
Flashlights appeared densely in the stands, turning the Pasadena Stadium stands at dusk into a dazzling Milky Way.
Amidst huge cheers, Hu Lai turned around and kicked the football back to the Chinese team's half. Then he rushed to the Brazilian team's half with Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai who were standing on the center line. The three of them were in the yellow-green lineup.
Retrograde!
It’s like three arrows fired in unison!
"Come on, son!"
Xie Lan shouted in front of the TV.
"Come on, Hu Lai!!"
Zhong Shihao stared at his phone and heard the sound of "the game begins" coming from his earphones, shouting silently in his heart.
"Go ahead, Team China!!!"
I don’t know how many people, at this moment, are shouting this in front of their mobile phone screens, tablet screens, computer screens, TV screens... in front of anything that allows them to see the live broadcast of the game, or in their hearts, or directly
came out.
※※※
Chen Xingyi stood on the center line before Hu Lai kicked off the ball, but he was different from Luo Kai.
Luo Kai also stood on the center line, but he stood at the intersection of the center line and the center circle arc.
The position where a normal striker stands.
Chen Xingyi stood at the junction of the center line and the sideline - a winger's stance.
When Hu Lai kicked the football back, he crossed the center line and sprinted straight along the sideline.
It wasn't until he crossed the Brazilian forward line that he slowed down and looked back.
I saw Brother Huan, who received Hu Lai's pass, gently pass the football back to Xia Xiaoyu.
Xia Xiaoyu swung his right foot in front of the rolling football and made a diagonal pass!
The football spanned half the stadium and flew to Chen Xingyi's side!
When Chen Xingyi received the ball, everyone else almost retreated to the sideline.
But he finally stopped the football with his chest.
As soon as he stopped the ball, the Brazilian team's right back Leonardo Kevil, who was wearing the captain's armband, was already in front of him. However, he did not take a hasty shot, but stuck diagonally in front of him, with his body slightly sideways.
, half turned his back to Chen Xingyi.
This is an obvious posture to prevent him from cutting inside.
When Chen Xingyi saw this, he moved the football forward and accelerated along the sideline.
Kevel, who was originally half sideways facing him, started to turn around when he saw Chen Xingyi leaning forward.
When Chen Xingyi took the football out, he had already turned around and moved forward again with extremely quick reaction.
Then when the football was far away from Chen Xingyi, he cut across, got stuck in front of Chen Xingyi, and then slowed down violently!
Chen Xingyi, who had just started to speed up, bumped into him, and then...he didn't knock Kevel away and lost possession of the ball.
Kevel glanced back to confirm the situation, then accelerated to catch up with the football, regained the football that Chen Xingyi had knocked away, then turned around calmly and passed the football forward to the midfield organizer Du who was retreating to receive the ball.
Du Carlos.
Instead of following the football to Carlos, the TV broadcast gave Kevel a close-up shot.
Leonardo Kevir, the main right back of the Brazilian national team, is 32 years old and plays for the powerful Roma City team in Serie A. He is fast and experienced. In the past eight seasons, whether in the Brazilian national team or Roma,
City Club, he has always been the dominant player on the right wing.
Johnson Law, whom Hulay met in the Premier League before, is ranked among the top five right backs in world football today. Kewell is among the top three right backs in the world. Four years ago, the ranking was... No. 1.
The former number one right back in the world is now ranked in the top three at the age of 32. Chen Xingyi's first meeting with him... was a complete defeat.

"The Chinese team lost possession of the ball just after the kickoff. Now it is the Brazilian team's turn to attack..."
While watching the live broadcast of the game on TV, Jorge Dillon said to the translator Yu Jintao who accompanied him to watch the game: "Chen Xingyi is still using his previous ideas to deal with Kevir... He thought he could rely on speed to sprint.
He was able to force a breakthrough. Yes, Kevel's speed is not as fast as before, but he doesn't want to think about who Keever is? He has played in Serie A for eight seasons, what scene has he not seen before?"
Having said this, Dillon also laughed: "When I was coaching the Turin Bulls, he often caused trouble on our left. Do you know how I dealt with him?"
Yu Jintao said: "Of course. You let Caesar go to the wing to face him, and then use Caesar's super personal ability to push him back so that he can't attack again."
Dillon laughed happily. He liked Yu Yu who was so supportive: "That's right! Young Keevel is a full-back with strong offensive attributes, but he is a little rough in defense. So I asked Caesar to deal with him.
, which not only curbed Kewell's assists, but also focused on attacking his defensive rashness... In the end, the world's number one right back at the time was defeated by me..."
Although many years have passed, Dillon still cannot hide his pride when talking about his classic battles.
He was not bragging, and Yu Jintao knew it very well. The game between the Turin Bulls and Roma City was one of the ten classic duels in Serie A in the past ten years.
The reason why Caesar at his peak was considered the strongest among the four kings was because he was always able to crush and win when facing strong enemies. When he faced off against Caesar, Kevier was already the number one in the world.
As the right back, but in the face of Caesar's powerful offensive ability, he was still beaten quite embarrassingly. The whole game became a backdrop to highlight the heroic appearance of Caesar...
But that was six seasons ago. Now, neither Kaiser nor Kewell are at their peak.
Keevil suffered a serious injury three seasons ago, which caused him to miss nearly a season. After recovering from the injury, his speed dropped, and his offense was not as sharp and invincible as before the injury.
So he changed his playing style, becoming more experienced and sophisticated, and his offense and defense became more balanced.
Today, he can still rank third among right backs in world football, which shows how powerful he is.
"Kevel's current speed is certainly not as fast as before he was injured. But he has more experience. When he saw the movement of Chen Xingyi's shoulder, he knew what he was going to do, so he turned around and blocked the position in advance. If Chen Xingyi still wants to fight with the opponent
If he simply competes for speed, he still won't perform very well in this game..." Dillon shook his head.
Yu Jintao frowned worriedly: Didn't Shi Wuyuan remind Chen Xingyi how to kick?
At this moment, he saw Chen Xingyi, who appeared in the long shot of the live broadcast, raised his hand and patted his forehead.
※※※
"Ouch, it looks like you don't have to remind him, Old Li..." Shi Wuyuan stopped Li Zhifei, who was about to go to the sidelines to roar and chant.
Just seeing Chen Xingyi lose the ball at the beginning of the game, Li Zhifei was so angry that veins were jumping in his temples, and he wanted to rush to the sideline to use the "Lion's Roar Kung Fu" on Chen Xingyi in the distance.
But now seeing Chen Xingyi like this, Shi Wuyin knew that he had also reacted, otherwise why would he be slapping himself on the forehead?
※※※
Chen Xingyi, who was on the court, patted his forehead and looked back at Kevel.
Although he lost the ball and made mistakes, he was not depressed, but was eager to try.
This is Leonardo Kevil, the captain of the Brazilian national team, the top right back in Serie A, and one of the top three in world football!
Director Shi is right. We have worked hard to get here, and finally met the Brazilian team, the world champion, which we could only watch on TV before, but could not get in touch with. Face to face with those dazzling names, isn't it?
Do you want to come and learn how awesome they are?
Just like in the Olympic Games, we all know that Mellie Banega is very powerful, but before actually playing against him, we lack an intuitive feeling of how powerful he can be. After playing against him in the Olympics, in our minds
I now have a concrete impression, which is no longer as vague as before.
The same goes for facing Brazil today.
Keevil is so powerful, so let me try my best to push myself to the limit, and then let's see how successful this world's third right back can be!

The remaining two updates are at 1:00 noon and 6:00 pm!
