Chapter 222 World Cup Final (1)

On July 5, 2006, France eliminated Portugal by 1-0 in the German World Cup semi-finals.

In the first half, Henry was knocked down by Portuguese defender Carvalho in the penalty area, France got a penalty kick, and Zidane took the penalty kick, which was the only goal in the game.

Before the semi-finals began, it was also hyped by the media. The biggest selling point was the farewell of the two superstars Zidane and Figo. Of course, everyone will pay more attention to Zidane, who scored a penalty kick that decided the outcome. But from the performance of the whole game, Zidane's performance today was not as good as that of the match with Brazil. Facing the Portuguese defense line, he failed to create too many opportunities to score in the offense. For more time, we cannot see Zidane's charge or exquisite cooperation with his teammates, and we see more

He was exhausted in the later stage and even used ball control as a means to delay time. Such a game was not the essence of his. Zidane's old teammate Figo performed well in the opening stage, but later he was mediocre due to physical fitness and lacked the true leadership temperament. Figo did not give his team what he needed at the critical moment of the game, especially missing the header that must be scored. Many years later, Figo would definitely be extremely upset and frustrated by the missed moment. But the game has become history and no one can save it.

After winning against Portugal, the French team advanced to the final. The goal-scoring hero Zidane also accepted an interview with French TV station Canal+, and announced the French team's internal slogan for the first time to the outside world. Two days ago, Toulam once said in an interview with reporters that the reason why the French team is so united now is because they have an internal slogan, but Toulam did not leak the specific content at that time.

Zidane said: "The slogan of our team is that we will die together (living and dying together). "I think we have come to this point now. Because we have done our best. We will strive to regain the World Cup. This is not an easy thing, it must be very difficult. But no matter what, we have weapons and we are eager to regain glory."

"Now we are in the finals. If we can lift the World Cup again, it would be very beautiful. We are now the whole of twenty-three people. I recall a lot of things, we are willing to fight to the end, and we sincerely long for victory."

Zidane's penalty kick made the French team win this game. This was his 107th national team game, and he scored his 30th national team goal. Zidane said he was not afraid or trembling: "Pressure, yes, it takes some pressure to shoot a penalty kick. However, it was a positive pressure. I said to myself at that time that if I scored a penalty kick, we would lead 1:0, and if we don't lose the ball, we would advance to the final. I didn't think about anything else, I just thought about this, and scored the penalty kick."

"The first thing we have to do now is rest. I think we did pay a lot tonight. The weather is very hot, so we have to have a good rest. We need to get back to shape and prepare for the same way. We have three days left."

As the banner of the French team, Zidane is a revenge person. He has not forgotten that before the start of this World Cup, some domestic media in France criticized and doubted the French team. It is time to settle the score.

Zidane said, "The most important thing is to win the World Cup. It will be extremely beautiful for everyone, not just for us, not just for the twenty-three players, but for the entire coaching staff, and for all those who support us. I mean to dedicate the World Cup to those who support us from beginning to end, not those who support us after we achieve results."

In another semifinal, Italy defeated the host Germany 2-0 in overtime, and the final will be between Italy and France, the closest pair.

※※※※※※※※※※

The World Cup is the only final game left, so Zhang Yang is waiting to watch the finals. He watched the live TV broadcast in the room of the hotel where he stayed. He did not go to watch the game live.

Italy and France, two teams with different technical characteristics, entered the finals. This is the second time that the two teams met in the finals after the 2000 European Cup. Zhang Yang is also particularly looking forward to the results of the game.

July 9, 2006. Berlin Olympic Stadium, the final of the German World Cup.

When Zhang Yang came to the stadium, many fans had already settled in the entire stadium. Outside the stadium, there were countless fans waiting there. Although they also knew that it was impossible to have free tickets now. They just wanted to be closer to the team they supported, hoping that their cheers could help the team win.

This is a VIP box ticket, with a very good location, close to the rostrum.

Just when Zhang Yang arrived at the stadium and was looking for his seat, his team Marseille head coach Fernandez also arrived at the finals, and he also came to watch the finals. Whether as a Frenchman or the mentor of the core Zidane of the French team, Fernandez appeared at the World Cup finals in France vs Italy.

Fernandez just found his box and sat down when he received a call. It was called by club chairman Diouf.

Diouf told him that Manchester City planned to acquire Zhang Yang. Fernandez almost rejected the proposal in a conditioned manner when he heard this.

"No way!"

"Are you not going to hear how much they pay?" Diouf asked with a smile.

"I won't sell it no matter how much it costs!" The discussion of Changyang's transfer may actually violate Fernandez's reversal. "If Thais think they have money, they can spend money all over the world and buy people, but in Marseille, it won't work for me! No matter how much money they give."

"Twenty million euros are not a small amount, let," Diouf said with a smile. In fact, when he just received a fax, he was really moved when he heard that Manchester City was willing to spend 20 million euros to buy Zhang Yang. You know, Marseille got Zhang Yang without spending the money. After one season, it sold 20 million euros. This is really a good deal. Before AC Milan's offer was less than 10 million euros, Marseille refused it at once. This is also because in the opinion of the Marseille president, the offer of AC Milan is too low. Now, Manchester City's offer has indeed made Diouf excited, although Manchester City's new buyer is surprising, because he did not expect Manchester City to participate.

“What the Thais mean is that they can continue to raise prices.”

"How much do they think they are rich? Well, unless they bid for 50 million euros, there is no talk." Fernandez said with a frown.

Diouf smiled. The head coach of his team said this, which was equivalent to directly rejecting the possibility of this deal. No one would be willing to pay 50 million euros to buy a player who only played professional games for one season, although this player scored 33 goals in a season in the Ligue 1. You should know that the price of Shepchenko's transfer from AC Milan to Chelsea is not much higher than that.

The Marseille club chairman smiled and said: "We will tell Manchester City and refuse."

"Thank you for understanding. Mr. Chairman. We have lofty ideals and ambitions in the new season, and Zhang Yang is the core of the team's offensive...."

Diouf interrupted Fernandez's dialect: "You and the guys bring the championship to Marseille, don't pay attention to the others."

"As you wish, Chairman." Fernandez said. He was relieved. Mr. Chairman's words made him feel at ease. At least, in this summer, the team will not sell Zhang Yang for money. Although Fernandez had known Diouf's value for Zhang Yang before, he was still a little worried. Now he is better and more relieved.

After hanging up the phone, Fernandez was a little uneasy. Even if the game is about to be held like the World Cup final, he could not completely immerse himself in the football atmosphere. A few minutes later, he finally realized what his worries were. The team was on holiday after the season. After that conversation, he did not communicate with his proud disciple Zhang Yang. Now, Fernandez suddenly felt a little worried that this young man might receive invitations from other teams, or even calls directly. Faced with those temptations, whether it is a giant or a team like Manchester City waving a check, these temptations are certainly indispensable. Can Zhang Yang resist these temptations?

Fernandez suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, he might suddenly receive a call from Zhang Yang's agent Mendez, informing him that Zhang Yang requested a transfer. This possibility made Fernandez restless.

He held his mobile phone, entered Zhang Yang's mobile phone number, pressed the send button, and he wanted to chat with his disciple to learn about Zhang Yang's current situation.

※※※※※※※※※※

The eyes are the window of the soul. Zhang Yang never thought that this sentence was anything but, now, he believed that the eyes are the window of the soul. He could directly lead to a person's heart and gently pluck that string.

Zhang Yang didn't expect to meet her here, which surprised him so much. Not only was he surprised, but he was also amazed.

Emma today gives him a different feeling from the pure and lively feeling he met last time. He could not imagine that a person's temperament could also change, and he gave such an extraordinary feeling with occasions or clothing.

It is a very tactful temperament, and it is a very light temperament that is difficult to describe in words.

It can be said that it is very pure, like a pure lily, and a unique taste of Yu Yue, as if a fairy descended to the mortal world, not to be desecrated or contaminated. This temperament is extremely attractive. Zhang Yang just glanced casually and was attracted by the other party. At first, he did not recognize that it was Emma. He was just attracted by this temperament.
