It's cheating, but Hazard

Chapter 251 Nothing else, just thinking about you
Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, Port Elizabeth.

More than 46,000 spectators have already entered the venue.

The temperature today is very comfortable, not too cold nor too hot, just 16 degrees.

The only thing that is not suitable is that it is raining today.

"Zhuangdianertai, Zhuangdianertai, you are now watching the 2010 South Africa World Cup quarter-finals, France vs. South Korea."

"Before the game, because of complaints from fans of the French and Italian teams, the organizing committee had to come out and say that the refereeing of this game was absolutely fair and just."

"The French team was not very favored in the qualifiers, but now they have proved themselves with their absolute performance."

“We kept three clean sheets in the group stage and our defense was solid.”

"But Huh Jung-moo also said that they had studied the French team's defense thoroughly and found their loopholes."

"In addition to their defensive strengths, France also has a lot of attacking firepower, especially Charles, who has been as stable as ever."

"He has scored three goals so far, ranking first in the scorer list along with Argentina's Higuain, Slovakia's Vitek, Spain's Villa, Ghana's Gyan and the United States' Donovan."

"Domenegue made no changes to the team compared to the last group stage match."

"Now, this coach who is obsessed with astrology has received more and more support in France. There was even news a few days ago that astrologers in Metz, France collectively praised Domenegue."

"In recognition of his promotion of astrology, the local astrology association awarded him a medal of honor."

“So this is magical.”

"But maybe this is the legendary coach's understanding of his art and his deep understanding of his team."

"At the same time, this World Cup is also the first World Cup for the French team after Zidane retired. It is a perfect opportunity to test the inheritance of the French team from the old to the new. "

"This match actually has certain advantages for the South Korean team, because their first round of group matches was played here. For them, this can be regarded as half of their home court."

"South Korea made history by reaching the semi-finals in the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup, but their defeats against Portugal, Italy, Spain and other world powerhouses in that tournament caused controversy, and South Korea's feat of reaching the semi-finals was overshadowed by that."

"This tournament is their first breakthrough in a World Cup outside their home country. Huh Jung-moo has proven his ability and now everyone is wondering if he can go one step further."

"Among the Asian teams, South Korea and Japan have made it to the round of 16. Whether they can continue to add glory to Asian football and win more places is a topic that fans in all Asian countries are paying close attention to."

"And there is another very important point about this match for the Korean players."

"That means they need to reach the semi-finals to be exempted from military service."

"Here are the lineups for both teams:"

“法国（4-2-3-1）：1-洛里/2-萨尼亚、5-加拉、3-阿比达尔、13-埃弗拉/19-迪亚比、14-图拉朗/10-夏尔、7-里贝里、15-马卢达/9-本泽马。”

“韩国(4-5-1)：18-郑成龙/22-车杜里、4-赵容亨、14-李正秀、12-李荣杓/7-朴智星、16-寄诚庸、8-金正友、13-金在成、17-李青龙/10-朴周永。”

……

The French team's locker room.

After Domenegue repeated the precautions, he looked down at his watch and saw that it was almost time, so he hurried to finish the rest.

"Pay attention to Li Zhengxiu. You must pay attention to him. He is an executioner and very dirty."

"Today's referee, Stark, is a German with average ability and level, so you must pay attention, especially when he is near you."

“Then just don’t give away set pieces.”

After saying that, Charles led his players out of the locker room.

Mandanda pulled Charles and asked, "Did you see the news that day?"

"What news?"

Ciel asked, staring straight ahead.

Mandanda whispered, "It means that the reason why Park Ji-sung can run so fast is because he ate stinky frog juice."

"I really can't imagine how he managed to squeeze frogs into juice and drink the fermented frog juice."

"Where did you see it? Wasn't there a power outage last night?"

After lining up, Charles finally couldn't help but turned around and asked.

Last night, because of the power outage, Charles was unable to watch TV and read the newspaper without lights, and he almost froze to death.

Fortunately, I had done winter training at the Tignes ski resort before and found a thicker quilt, so I got through that difficult night safely.

Why is there a power outage?

The reason is actually very simple. Local thieves cut the power supply wires and sold them for money...

"I didn't see it last night. I saw it this morning when I was reading the newspaper."

"If they hadn't had a power outage last night, I would have suspected that they had someone cut our wires."

Mandanda said helplessly.

You know, the temperature last night was close to below zero.

Lori walked over and stood behind Ciel, "Who cares? Just do it."

As time passed, the referee blew the whistle and the game officially began.

France has the ball.

At the beginning of the game, the French team firmly controlled the ball.

The French defender passed the ball back and forth slowly, looking for the right moment.

There is no way around it. Along the way, the teams they met basically all liked to play defensive counterattacks.

There is no point in being impatient when facing a team like this.

Soon, the French team saw their opportunity.

Gallas passed the ball to Sagna, who rushed forward after receiving the ball, and just as he was about to pass the center line, he pushed the ball forward without hesitation.

Charles, who had already moved to the side, turned around and stopped the ball steadily. Kim Jae-sung, who was originally sticking to Charles, immediately turned around and rushed up.

Li Zhengxiu and others not far away were also watching with eager eyes.

Domenegue, who was originally a little distracted on the sidelines, immediately came back to his senses and stared at every move on the field.

If Li Zhengxiu dares to harm Charles like he did before, he will be dead!
On the court, Jin Zaicheng was unable to stop Charles as expected.

Charles just lightly kicked the ball with the instep of his right foot and broke through his defense.

Jin Jae-sung quickly stretched out his hand, trying to expand the defensive area, but Charles told him with facts that his outstretched hand was like a wet tissue, which would break with a poke.

After easily breaking through Kim Jae-sung, Lee Jung-soo gave up on Ribery and Benzema, cursed inwardly, and had to rush forward.

At the same time, Li Qinglong also arrived in time, sticking to Charles' right side, and stretching out his right foot to block the ball.

Charles's smooth fried meatball made Li Qinglong hesitate for a second. Within that short second, Charles quickly moved the ball forward with his left foot, trying to break free from Li Qinglong's control.

Li Qinglong hurriedly followed, and not far ahead, Li Zhengxiu also cooperated with him to stand in front of Charles.

Charles pushed away Li Qinglong's hand that was trying to put on him, and at the same time twisted his right ankle, preparing to shoot.

Li Qinglong, who was originally following Charles, pushed off the ground with his front foot and directly slowed down his speed.

The moment he was fooled, Charles took advantage of his illness to kill him, turning the shooting into a knock.

Just as his left foot caught the ball, Li Qinglong finally reacted and jumped to Charles' side like a rabbit.

And Charles, who had anticipated this, was waiting for this move from him.

In Li Zhengxiu's eyes, he saw Charles' right foot rubbing the ball backwards. At the moment his right foot landed, Li Qinglong, who braked suddenly, was still one body length ahead of Charles.

In just these short milliseconds, Charles quickly connected his supporting feet, and used his right foot to support himself to rotate 90 degrees. At the same time, he used his left foot to tap the ball, and then he rushed towards the penalty area from behind Li Qinglong.

Lee Jung-soo hurried forward, but before he could get close, Charles' left foot had already unceremoniously declared the death notice of the South Korean team.

The wind drove the rain down on the high city, and the clouds pressed lightly with the sound of thunder.

Zheng Chenglong immediately pounced on the ball, but the ball did not give him any chance at all.

"boom--"

The ball hit the net and finally landed with a splash. South Africa's economy is in recession, and there are not as many fans as expected.

But except for 500 Korean fans, all the more than people burst into warm cheers.

There was no delay in the action, nor in the audience’s enthusiasm for the wonderful performance.

But people do not share the same joys and sorrows.

Korean fans just think they are noisy.

"Siba, what are they doing?"

"Show the might of the Republic of Korea, come on, Zhou Yong-oppa!"

"Damn it, we must defeat these arrogant French people, or we will petition the Blue House."

Pires has been the French team's commentator since the start of the World Cup.

"The ball goes in, France 1:0 South Korea!"

"Defending Charles is almost a nightmare for every defender. How to defend Charles is definitely the biggest problem in world football today."

"I heard Almo say before that all the defenders in La Liga lamented that the only way to defend against Charles was to have a gun in your hand."

"And, it is clear that the level of Charr in the national team is just as stable and impressive as that in the club team."

"If the South Korean team wants to stop Charles and the French team, they have no other choice but to rely on the 'gun' of the referee."

"The South Korean team should feel honored to be able to compete with the French team on a fair stage."

Benzema rushed over happily and wanted to celebrate with Charles.

But Charles pushed Benzema aside, ran into the South Korean team's net, picked up the ball, put it in the center circle, and waited for the kick-off.

"Ciel, why don't you celebrate? Besides, we are still ahead."

Benzema asked in confusion.

Ribery saw this and returned to his position. He said as he passed by, "This is not difficult. Let's teach these Siba a lesson."

Ciel nodded seriously.

"This is not the first time they have said I am Korean. Today I must tell them that I am not a toothpick."

Ribery, Benzema and others nearby all laughed.

Soon, Lori, who was still confused about what his teammates were laughing at, heard the news from Sagna and could no longer hold back.

"So this is what we said before: like cures like!"

The South Korean team also cheered up and kicked off again.

Although they are now one point behind, they believe that in the future game time, they will definitely use the opportunity of set pieces to equalize the score.

Just now, they were just careless.

After getting the ball, the South Korean defender found Park Joo-young immediately.

However, soon, under the pressure of Gala and others, Park Ju-young could only risk shooting.

He no longer had any shooting angles or space, but there was nothing he could do if he didn't do anything.

As expected, the ball was easily caught in Lori's arms.

Although the South Korean team is arrogant, they are not stupid.

Just as Lori was walking towards the penalty area with the ball step by step, they all retreated like a swarm of bees.

Just as he was about to leave the penalty area, Lori quickly threw the ball upwards and then hit the ball.

"call out--"

The ball quickly crossed the entire half court and went straight to Charles.

After catching the ball, Charles rushed out like a gust of wind.

The rain was getting heavier at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, but the South Korean team was never an obstacle to stop the Swifts from flying in the wind and rain.

"Stop him, stop him, Jin Zaicheng, Li Qinglong!"

Xu Dingmao was so anxious that he shouted out on the sidelines.

He also wanted to maintain the so-called status of a famous coach, just like Domenegue who was sitting on the bench and playing dice leisurely next to him.

But he was not as lucky as Domenegue.

In the early stages, veterans such as Zidane and Vieira gave him life.

When it was about to die, a Charles was immediately dug up.

Li Qinglong and Jin Zaicheng rushed forward one after another, gritting their teeth.

Today's referee is not theirs, so they dare not be too blatant.

Although their athletes often beat their teammates for first place in competitions.

Li Qinglong was the first to get close, but just as he stretched out his foot to hook the ball, Charles took a look at the situation and suddenly pulled the ball back.

At the same time, Li Qinglong stretched out his foot, but because he was pulled back a distance, it was difficult for him to exert force with his foot, and he eventually poked the ball towards Charles.

Charles immediately raised his right foot. Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Qinglong quickly reached out and pinched Charles' waist.

"Snapped--"

Charles quickly pushed the ball forward with his right foot, and at the same time turned sideways, not forgetting to push Li Qinglong away with his hand.

During his time playing football, he has encountered all kinds of defensive players, but he has never encountered such dirty ones.

When one plan failed, Li Qinglong came up with another one.

He simply changed from pinching to pulling Charles's clothes.

In order to prevent the pulling from being unstable, he held Charles' jersey with one hand and even reached his other hand directly into the jersey to pull Charles' tights.

Charles had no choice but to change his original plan.

Li Qinglong stared at Charles intently, and Jin Zaicheng, who was not far away, also rushed up to cooperate.

Charles suddenly turned to the right, and his right foot made a very obvious passing movement.

But Kim Jae-sung was obviously blocked behind Charles and had no time to intercept.

Seeing this, Li Qinglong loosened his hand that was holding Charles' tights, and immediately put his hand on Charles' shoulder, ready to intercept the ball.

However, the moment he let go, Charles immediately changed his right foot to knock the ball with his heel.

Li Qinglong was caught off guard and was left behind by Charles.

He wanted to continue pulling Charles' jersey, but this time, Charles turned faster than a hummingbird.

"Zaicheng!"

Jin Jae-sung quickly stretched out his foot and bent down to block Charles.

In the blink of an eye, Li Qinglong was about to arrive again.

Charles, who was determined not to get entangled with Li Qinglong anymore, used both hands to push Jin Zaicheng away, and at the same time performed a Marseille turn with his feet.

Jin Zaicheng, who was pushed away, was confused. Before he could react, he heard Li Qinglong's roar.

"Siba! Didn't you eat?"

I saw Charles, who was not far away, ignoring the other Korean players and kicking the ball under his foot.

After the rain, I don't know where the dragon has gone, but the grass in the pond is green and the frogs are croaking.

Benzema in the penalty area glanced at the goalkeeper with telepathy, found the ball in the distance in his frightened pupils, and then jumped high.

"boom--"

The ball went in.
