future king
Chapter 350 Li Yu is a Substitute
The second round of Group G is divided into two days, the first match between Brazil and Côte d'Ivoire.
In the first game, Brazil drew 2-2 with China Hong Kong. The 5-star Samba’s first game in South Africa was finally the title of the favorite to win the championship. Although Kaka did not fully play, Maicon and Elano played the key role for the team goal.Côte d'Ivoire had a 0-0 draw with Portugal in the opening match, and Drogba and Ronaldo's kings pk ended peacefully.The historical record of the two teams confronted each other. In the warm-up match before the World Cup, Brazil and its imaginary enemies in Africa, Tanzania and Zimbabwe, both won by more than 3 goals, while Côte d'Ivoire only drew 2-2 with Paraguay in South America.
In this campaign, Dunga continued to use the winning lineup of the first game. Robinho and Fabiano still partnered on the front line, Kaka led the midfield, Lucio and Juan were in the defense, and Cesar guarded the goal.Côte d'Ivoire has only one change compared with the previous game. Drogba continued to play with injuries, Warcraft replaced Gervinho, the Toure brothers sat in the midfield, and b-Barry guarded the goal.
Brazil beat Côte d'Ivoire 3-1 and qualified ahead of schedule with two wins in two games.In the 25th minute, Kaka made a breakthrough pass from the middle, and Fabiano scored from a small angle.In the 50th minute, Fabiano scored twice.In the 64th minute, Kaka made a pass from the left, and Elano outflanked and scored two consecutive goals.In the 80th minute, Drogba scored with a header.In the 88th minute, Kaka accumulated two yellow cards and was sent off by a red card. He will miss the next game.
Who is the player who stole the biggest limelight in the battle between Brazil and Côte d'Ivoire?The answer, of course, is Kaka.This is not only because he had two assists, not only because he got a red card, but also because what Kaka did on this night reminds people of two people: Baggio in 1994, Ronaldinho! [
Throughout the first half, Kaka was the king of turnovers.He passed the ball 15 times and missed 5 times; dribbled the ball 4 times and was intercepted by the opponent 3 times.According to statistics, within half an hour, Kaka conceded a total of 9 times. Among them, his conceded goal was quickly counterattacked by his opponent in the 15th minute. The Ivorian team almost used this opportunity to create a goal.
But what is a superstar?A superstar often does not need to be brave and active throughout the game, and does not always need to be able to easily pierce the opponent's dense defense.Even if he makes mistakes from time to time, it doesn't get in the way.But as long as the opponent gives him space and gives him a little opportunity to take advantage of, he will be able to punish the opponent immediately.
In the 1994 World Cup, Italy played against Nigeria in the 18 finals. Baggio did not have many highlights throughout the game, and was stared at by his opponent as if he "disappeared" on the court.But towards the end of the game, the opponent gave him a chance, and in that one chance, Baggio scored to save Italy from 0-1 down.In slow motion, it can be seen that there is only a narrow passage between the goalkeeper's hand and the goal post, and Baggio's ball went into the net from there.
Similarly, today, Kaka was closely guarded by his opponents. As soon as he got the ball, he faced a lot of blocking and pressing.However, the opponent's defense was inevitably neglected. In the 25th minute, Kaka got a chance.Robinho made a direct pass, Fabiano knocked the ball with his heel, Kaka stopped the ball, and there was a defensive player on his left and in front of him.When he catches the ball, he leans against one player with his body, then after stopping the ball, he quickly swings past another player.At this time, Fabiano moved forward, and two Ivorian players "closed the door" trying to block the passing channel between Kaka and Fabiano.Only narrow passages left!But Kaka passed the ball from here.Fabiano received the ball, single-handedly, shot angrily, and scored.
As long as the opponent leaves him a little passing channel, Kaka can immediately punish the opponent, and Kaka can change the game.In fact, throughout the first half, this was Kaka's only success.But this time, the Brazilian team opened the door to victory.
In the second half, Kaka continued his style of "either put the knife in the sheath, or get out the knife."In the 62nd minute, Kaka got another chance to break through from the left. He did not dribble too gorgeously, but simply dialed the ball to the bottom line, and then accurately passed the ball low to the middle. Elano will The ball hits the gate.Kaka didn't have many fancy moves, but with a simple pass, the murderous intent was immediately apparent.In the past two years, due to Kaka's repeated opponents' killing tactics and various injuries, Kaka no longer made frequent raids.Would rather play with this more affordable, down-to-earth style.His attack efficiency has also been greatly improved.Give some sunshine and it will be brilliant. Such a superstar demeanor reminds people of Baggio in 1994.
Without that red card, Kaka would be eligible to compete for the best in this battle.But unfortunately, after two assists, Kaka was possessed by another god, this is Ronaldinho in 2002.Ronaldinho's pinnacle in the World Cup is the battle between Brazil and England.He first used a lob free kick to play with Seaman and became famous all over the world.Later, under the constant fouls and violations by his opponents, Ronaldinho became angry.He was sent off by the referee with a red card for a malicious foul, which caused huge controversy.
The same is true for Kaka today.He was constantly viciously violated by his opponents. He was fouled 4 times in the whole game, and all 4 times he was shoveled and turned on his back.In addition, Elano was kicked, which also seriously affected the mood of the Brazilian players.As a result, Kaka is also a little emotional.He first received a yellow card for the opponent's player in the 85th minute.Then, an unexpected scene happened.In the 88th minute, No. 18 Keita of the Cote d'Ivoire team collided with Kaka. Although Kaka didn't seem to intentionally hurt his opponent, Keita fell to the ground and rolled after the collision.
The referee believed that Kaka was suspected of beating his opponent and gave him a second yellow card.Dunga was furious, and more than 9 spectators booed.And of course there was Keita, who rolled over with his face covered as Kaka's arm touched his chest.This tricked the referee into giving a red card, and also made Kaka win the first red card since landing in Europe in 03!
This is the Kaka of the night.In the first half of the game, he behaved like Baggio in 1994; but in the second half, he was like Ronaldinho in 2002.Of course, he was more wronged than Ronaldinho back then. Ronaldinho was only annoyed because he was kicked and received a red card for a foul.As for him, the first yellow card may be his own fault, but the second one is a bit wronged.
From Brazil's point of view, this may be the retribution of "you have to pay back if you come out to play". In 2002, Brazil's No. 10 Rivaldo used the same acting skills to trick the Turks into being sent off. Eight years later, this scene returned to Brazil's No. 8, although the No. 10 jersey has changed hands...
The group match between Brazil and Côte d'Ivoire was held at the Johannesburg Football Stadium. The Brazil team finally defeated the Côte d'Ivoire team 3-1. Fabiano, the protagonist who scored 2 goals in a row tonight, attended the press conference after the game, expressing the second goal It is "the hand of God".
"Today's game against Côte d'Ivoire was still very difficult, the whole situation was very complicated, but the Brazilian team controlled the game from the beginning. This game is also very important for me because I haven't scored in a long time. This game proves that I have improved my strength." Fabiano scored two goals in a row, and the press conference was extremely excited. He emphasized to the reporters present, "Although I scored a goal today, the most important thing is that the Brazilian team as a whole won the World Cup. Another big step forward. We came here as a collective and that awareness will continue throughout all World Cup games."
After Fabiano scored a goal, he made a gesture of 6 while running. The reporters present all wanted to understand the special meaning of this gesture.Fabiano said with a smile: "This gesture of 6 is dedicated to my eldest daughter, because it is her 6th birthday. When she celebrated her birthday last year, I happened to be in a game against the Italian team. To celebrate her birthday, I just scored two goals in the game that day. Today I repeated the record of two goals on that day, so I dedicated the first goal to my eldest daughter. For fear that the second daughter will be sad , I dedicate the second ball to my second daughter."
One of the disputes between Brazil and Côte d'Ivoire in this game is whether Fabiano's second goal was a handball. In this regard, Fabiano admitted that when he touched the ball for the first time, the ball did touch his hand. "I believe everyone must be very concerned about this issue. When the ball fell for the first time, it did touch the hand, and the second time it hit the shoulder. But I think these are not intentional, it is a very natural result. And I think it would be fantastic to have a goal like that in the World Cup."
The Brazil match finally came to an end. Eriksson of the China Hong Kong team announced the starting lineup for tomorrow's match against Portugal at the press conference. Li Yu's name did not appear in the starting lineup, but to the comfort of the Chinese fans, Li Yu His name is on the bench.
The reporters at the scene didn't care about any other names, and all the topics revolved around Li Yu's injury.
Facing the reporter's question this time, Eriksson did not choose to remain silent, but replied with a serious face: "It's hard to say, Li Yu's recovery can be described as miraculous, but the problem is that everyone advised me not to Let him take risks on the field, his name can appear on the substitute list, it is Li Yu who fought for it!"
Eriksson's answer can reflect many problems, that is, Li Yu's injury is indeed serious, whether he can play is still a mystery, but Li Yu himself is very active and eager to return to the game! [
Whether he can play or not is Eriksson's smoke. He changed players before the start of the game. I haven't seen Li Yu so far. It's really hard to judge. All the news is from the media in Eriksson's answer. This is the only insider's explanation about Li Yu's injury.
Tomorrow's game will determine the qualifying situation of Group G. Brazil took the lead to score 4 points and is in a relatively safe position, while Côte d'Ivoire only has 1 point. Even, their opponent in the final round of the group stage is the Huaxia Hong Kong team, and there is only one way to win in front of the Ivorians.
In the last round, the Huaxia Hong Kong team had to face the Côte d'Ivoire's death. The second round match against Portugal was also extremely important. If the Portuguese team was won, the Huaxia Hong Kong team would be crushed by the Ivory Coast, and Brazil would also be defeated by the Portuguese. Knock, Group G deserves the title of the Group of Death. Every game is very important, and there is no room for loss.
The first team to play the next day was Spain, the number one favorite to win the cup. The match between Huaxia Hong Kong and Portugal will be played later.
In the first round of the group match, the Spaniard had a shocking upset and lost to Switzerland 0-1.After the defeat in the first round, the situation in Spain took a sharp turn for the worse.If they want to get the right to qualify, they must win the last two rounds of confrontation.Honduras, as the weakest opponent in this group, performed mediocrely in the first round, losing 0 to 1 to Chile.In history, Spain and Honduras once had a confrontation record. In the group stage of the 1982 World Cup, the then host Spain was unexpectedly tied 1-1 by Honduras.
Today, Spain has a 442 formation, with Villa and Torres starting together on the striker.Xavi and Keylor Navas are in charge of attacking in the midfield, Busquez and Alonso are double midfielders.On the back line, Puyol and Pique partnered as central defenders, Capdevila and Ramos one left and one right, and Casillas was the goalkeeper.For Honduras, the famous forward Suazo made his debut, and his partner on the front line was Martinez, who had played for Yanjing Guoan.
Title favorites Spain beat Honduras 2-0 at Ellis Park in Johannesburg for their first win.In the 17th and 51st minutes, Villa scored twice, and his goals in the national team reached 40.In the 61st minute, Spain also got a penalty kick, but Villa missed the penalty and missed the opportunity to stage a hat-trick.
In the first match against Switzerland, Spain shot 25 times and scored 0 goals.In the second game against Honduras, Spain scored another 22 goals, and the scoreboard only turned over twice.Considering the loss in the first game, after two rounds, the points will be 3 points, 2 goals, and 1 goal difference. Under the rules of the World Cup where the score is relatively small, the promotion pattern is extremely unfavorable.
After the two rounds, Chile took the lead with 6 points, Switzerland and Spain both had 3 points, Switzerland had a goal difference of 0 and a goal of 1, so the ranking was behind Spain. However, in the last round, Heathfield's opponent was recognized as the weakest team in the group Team Honduras, Rueda's team has only a theoretical hope of qualifying. If Spain wants to ensure that it enters the top 16, it must beat Chile, at least over the current opponent with a goal difference of 2.If you draw or lose, you will have to blame yourself, and you will most likely have to continue to engrave your name on the tombstone of the European champion who hit the World Cup.
But even if Spain can beat Bielsa's team at the end of the group, it is still unknown whether they can win the group's top spot.As we all know, the top two in Group H will compete with the top two in Group G to play in the knockout round, and the top of Group H is likely to be Brazil, whose ability and state are obvious to all. No one wants to touch the Confederations Cup champion right now , especially the Spaniard, who is aiming to win the championship and is currently showing slow progress.
Both Chile and Spain squandered too many scoring opportunities on Honduras, which gave the Swiss an opportunity to take advantage of. Although Switzerland currently has a goal difference of 0, it is hoped that in the final round, it will win from Central and North America, which has limited strength and slim chances of promotion. If the team scores more goals, if Spain's goal difference is not higher than Switzerland (considering Chile's excellent state and excellent wing assault force), it will be forced to accept and lose the top candidate (the target bookmaker strongly favors Brazil For the fate of being a big hit), there is nothing to do with regret.
God can do evil, but self-inflicted evil cannot live. If the European hegemon and the South American champion are in an early firefight in the 1\8 final, it will be a disaster created by the Spaniard himself and a disaster left behind.In the first game, the formation was conservative and indulged in possession of the ball. As a result, the opponents became more confident as they defended a set of iron barrels. As a result, Villas were blocked by their opponents for the second time in two years.
In today's battle, although the Matadors' offensive organization has improved a lot, they are active in both sides, but there is a problem with the goal: Torres has become the No. 5 defender in Honduras, and he can hit twice in just 2 minutes. It was an excellent opportunity, but Cesc Fabregas shot the empty goal but was cleared by the "goal line angel". , scoring two goals is worthy of congratulations, but the cost of shooting a penalty kick may not be reflected until the final whistle of the final round of the group stage...
Puyol, who played poorly for the Swiss team in the first game, once again showed an excellent state in today's game.While helping the team to keep a clean sheet against opponents, they are also getting better with the team.After the embarrassing first game, Puyol, who found his way in self-criticism, is leading the team towards the miracle of winning the championship.
The losing team seems to be an unwritten "rule" in the World Cup, and Spain is challenging this record.In the first game against the Swiss team, Spain's performance was mediocre and the rear door was wide open. The little-known forward line of the Swiss team can easily play Puyol.After the game, the status of the Barcelona captain was also questioned by the media.With the support of Pique and other teammates, Puyol led the team out today.In the game against Honduras, the familiar Puyol was active again.
For most of the time before the game, Puyol was more conscientious in his defensive work.In the 52nd minute, Tursios' shot in front of the penalty area was decisively tackled by Puyol. This is the epitome of the excellent performance of the Barcelona captain in the back line in this game, firmly protecting Casillas and him behind him. goal.
Offensively, Puyol stepped in in the last half hour of the second half, intending to win a bigger score for the team.In the 66th minute, the header was ferried and almost helped Navas break the goal; in the 78th minute, he rushed to the top of the penalty area and ran a little, otherwise he would have a chance to put Mata's corner kick into the opponent's net.
Just before the game against Honduras, Puyol also said in front of the media: "The team will treat this game as a final." The outstanding performance at both ends is also a major basis for Spain to score three points.
In fact, "Agence France-Presse" reported that since the start of Spain's World Cup tour in South Africa, whether Puyol should give up the central defender position to Real Madrid's Ramos has been a hot topic in some Spanish media.In today's game, Puyol not only once again proved that he is more qualified than anyone else in the central defender's position, but also proved his ability to lead the team to victory.Losing champion?Puyol, who never admits defeat, is leading his teammates to challenge the great curse in the history of this World Cup.
In the first game, Brazil drew 2-2 with China Hong Kong. The 5-star Samba’s first game in South Africa was finally the title of the favorite to win the championship.

In today's battle, although the Matadors' offensive organization has improved a lot, they are active in both sides, but there is a problem with the goal: Torres has become the No. 5 defender in Honduras, and he can hit twice in just 2 minutes. It was an excellent opportunity, but Cesc Fabregas shot the empty goal but was cleared by the "goal line angel". , scoring two goals is worthy of congratulations, but the cost of shooting a penalty kick may not be reflected until the final whistle of the final round of the group stage...
Puyol, who played poorly for the Swiss team in the first game, once again showed an excellent state in today's game.While helping the team to keep a clean sheet against opponents, they are also getting better with the team.After the embarrassing first game, Puyol, who found his way in self-criticism, is leading the team towards the miracle of winning the championship.
The losing team seems to be an unwritten "rule" in the World Cup, and Spain is challenging this record.In the first game against the Swiss team, Spain's performance was mediocre and the rear door was wide open. The little-known forward line of the Swiss team can easily play Puyol.After the game, the status of the Barcelona captain was also questioned by the media.With the support of Pique and other teammates, Puyol led the team out today.In the game against Honduras, the familiar Puyol was active again.
For most of the time before the game, Puyol was more conscientious in his defensive work.In the 52nd minute, Tursios' shot in front of the penalty area was decisively tackled by Puyol. This is the epitome of the excellent performance of the Barcelona captain in the back line in this game, firmly protecting Casillas and him behind him. goal.
Offensively, Puyol stepped in in the last half hour of the second half, intending to win a bigger score for the team.In the 66th minute, the header was ferried and almost helped Navas break the goal; in the 78th minute, he rushed to the top of the penalty area and ran a little, otherwise he would have a chance to put Mata's corner kick into the opponent's net.
Just before the game against Honduras, Puyol also said in front of the media: "The team will treat this game as a final." The outstanding performance at both ends is also a major basis for Spain to score three points.
In fact, "Agence France-Presse" reported that since the start of Spain's World Cup tour in South Africa, whether Puyol should give up the central defender position to Real Madrid's Ramos has been a hot topic in some Spanish media.In today's game, Puyol not only once again proved that he is more qualified than anyone else in the central defender's position, but also proved his ability to lead the team to victory.Losing champion?Puyol, who never admits defeat, is leading his teammates to challenge the great curse in the history of this World Cup.
