future king

The reason why Eriksson ranked in this way is because he didn't want Li Yu to even have the chance to take the penalty in the last round. Now it seems that the Huaxia Hong Kong team has been somewhat passive.

All the fans stood up and looked at the field. If the last player of the Huaxia Hong Kong team to take the penalty scored, there was still a glimmer of hope. If he didn't score, the Dutch could start celebrating.

China's fifth player is Fedoro, a naturalized player from Argentina, and he seems to be quite normal.

Facing Stekelenburg, he calmly pushed the lower left corner and scored!

After scoring the goal, he didn't look too excited. He turned around and walked back. The last hope was no longer in the hands of the Huaxia Hong Kong team.

The audience held their breath and looked at Huntelaar, the fifth Dutch penalty kicker.

A tall striker, he also has a good penalty rate in his own team!

Walking up to the football, he picked up the ball and gave it a big kiss. He put it down, but he didn't retreat. When he heard the whistle, he shot without hesitation.

Fan Junye had tried his best, but he didn't expect that Huntelaar would also kick the penalty in the middle at the end, and the goal was scored!

The final match was 5:4!

The penalty shootout is cruel, and the Huaxia Hong Kong team must accept the fate of being eliminated.

Li Yu lowered his head very lonely. From time to time, Dutch players came up to shake his hand, but he never raised his head from the beginning to the end. He just completed the handshake mechanically, and he didn't know who it was.

The Dutch players immediately began their own celebration, and the Dutch team entered the semi-finals of the World Cup.

The China Hong Kong team's World Cup journey is over.

"Lee, look up, the failure is not your fault! You have done a good job!" Ericson comforted Li Yu's shoulder.

"But I feel that today is very bad, and I failed to perform to the level I should have!"

"You have done enough, without you we would not be qualified to play this knockout match, leave like a winner, to thank the fans who support us so much!"

"it is good..."

Li Yu rubbed his eyes, Li Yu's eyes were red when he raised his head again, he was crying, he didn't want people to see his tears.

Walking towards the stands, Li Yu kept waving his hands to greet the fans. At the same time, he was also saying goodbye. The Huaxia Hong Kong team was about to leave the World Cup stage.

"This is a game with no losers. In the penalty shootout, we lost on penalties. This is not shameful at all. The China Hong Kong team has shown enough standards. The fans must continue to support this team. Going with them, maybe we cared about results in the past, but at the same time, we may also lack a little patience and persistence to some extent. Some people will say that the previous team is not worth our persistence. Now we have found that we can A team that persists, a superstar who makes us willing to spend money to watch the game, we must continue to support him and the team he is in!"

"Leaving is not the final outcome. Li Yu is still very young. He can come back in four years, and we can wait for another four years! We have gained a lot in this World Cup. You must know that we are not a big favorite, not What a traditional strong team, we are proud to be able to enter the top 8, yes, this is a new history of Chinese football! We should be happy!"

What the commentator said is also true. Once upon a time, we just hoped that there would be a team that could appear in the World Cup. Now that we have entered the top 8, we should start. The best result of the Asian team in this World Cup, the top 8 Huaxia Hong Kong team, can play the national anthem team.

The final winner is the Dutch, and people have reason to believe that even Bergkamp, ​​the leader of the Netherlands in 1994, will applaud loudly when he sees this brave Netherlands; The sexy and unrestrained Hiddink also has to admit that this Dutch team is more terrifying than it was back then.Look at Brazil's panic, impetuousness and tension at the end of the game, and look at the free and easy, relaxed and elegant Holland before the end of the game. Only then do Dutch footballers understand a truth deeply: on the green field, the tragic Failure is certainly a kind of beauty, but in a tragic battle, winning a penalty kick bravely is just as beautiful!

In this battle, the Netherlands created many records.First of all, it is the 9-game winning streak in international A-level events, breaking the record of 1971 consecutive victories set in the Cruyff era in 1972-8 (also created in 2002-03).This is the longest winning streak in Dutch football history!

Furthermore, it is the record of 24 unbeaten matches in the Dutch International A-level competition. Currently, the Netherlands has 24 unbeaten matches, with 19 wins and 5 draws.The last time the team lost a game was on September 2008, 9, when the Netherlands lost to Australia in a friendly match.So far, it has been more than 6 months, and the Netherlands is undefeated.The Dutch "Telegraph" said it well: "In the past two years, the Dutch fans have been happy, because they have been so happy that they can't recall what it was like for the Netherlands to lose."

Of course, the most brilliant record of the Netherlands is the winning streak.Since the World Cup qualifiers, the Netherlands has won 8 consecutive victories; after entering the World Cup, the Netherlands has won 3 consecutive victories in the group stage; in the knockout round, the Netherlands has won 2 consecutive victories.What is this concept?This means that the Netherlands has conquered every opponent since the start of the qualifiers, and they have seen gods and gods in 13 games along the way, hell and hell!Before, many people dismissed this record, thinking that the Netherlands' defeat of Norway (qualifier), Scotland (qualifier), Denmark, Japan, Cameroon, and Slovakia was just a soft persimmon.But today, the Netherlands defeated the Huaxia Hong Kong team. Looking at the game, people will know how much effort the Netherlands has put in for the final victory of the game?

In the history of the World Cup, there are only two teams that have won all the qualifiers and also won consecutive victories in the World Cup. In 2, the Brazilian team led by Pele won all the qualifiers, all the World Cup races, and finally won the championship. In 1970, the West Germany team won all the qualifiers, won three consecutive World Cup races, and finally won the runner-up.Looking at it now, the Netherlands hopes to become the third team to be recorded in history in this way.After the Netherlands breaks through the China Hong Kong team, the opponent in the semi-finals will be the winner of Uruguay and Ghana. The Netherlands is bound to go all out to reach the final!

Perhaps until today, people will still debate whether the pragmatic Netherlands is no longer beautiful; perhaps until today, people will still say that the Netherlands, which has no championship background, is almost ready.

But the final outcome says it all, no matter what the scene is, it is the Dutch team that will advance this time.

If you have to choose a master of Van Marwijk's tactical thinking in today's Dutch team, it must be the "fisherman" Dirk.Throughout the game, his running distance reached 10389 meters, the most in the team.During the game, Dirk Dirk made many key clearances and tackles on the defensive end. On the offensive end, he also performed brilliantly with three players in a row. As a left winger, he will always overfulfill the task.

In a sense, Van Marwijk's team does not have the traditional Dutch football of total defense, but in terms of players, he has recruited too many players who can attack and defend well like Dirk. This is undoubtedly the key to the success of the Dutch team.

Just yesterday, Cruyff was dismissed as honorary chairman of the club by the new chairman of Barcelona, ​​Rosell, and this also allowed the Holland ball saint to devote himself to the World Cup.He did not give pointers to the Dutch team as before, but completely believed in Van Marwijk, because he knew: the utilitarian Oranje is the most terrifying.

The subsequent games will determine the Netherlands' opponents in the semi-finals.

Uruguay vs Ghana.

Uruguay won the top spot in Group A with 2 wins and 1 tie and advanced to the round of 16. In the final of 18, Uruguay defeated South Korea and entered the quarterfinals of the World Cup for the first time in 40 years.Ghana won the second place in Group D in the group stage. In the 18 finals, they defeated the United States 2-1 after overtime and advanced to the quarterfinals for the first time in history.Uruguay has a 433 attacking formation today. Forlan, Suarez and Cavani still constitute a terrifying trident, while Victorino replaces the injured Godin and Lugano as a central defender.

In Ghana, Ji'an, who sent the lore in the last battle, rode forward alone, while Annan was the pivot of the midfield.

乌拉圭和加纳激战120分钟战成1比1平。点球决战中，乌拉圭4比2胜出，总比分5比3击败加纳，40年之后再度进入世界杯四强。

In the 14 finals with Ghana, Uruguayan striker Suarez failed to continue the magic of scoring twice in the previous game, but at the critical moment he saved the team and Uruguay in an alternative way, although this way lacks Sportsmanship, although this approach may be despised by many people, but Suarez used a rare "most valuable" red card in World Cup history to help Uruguay break into the semi-finals of the World Cup, which is enough.

Let's first look at Suarez's performance.In the 11th minute of the game, Suarez got the ball from the left. After shaking off the defense of the opponent's defender, he did not pass the ball to Forlan, who was in a better position. Instead, he chose to shoot directly, and the ball was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper; in the 26th minute Suarez received an out-of-bounds ball in the front field, and then he took advantage of the opportunity to wipe the opponent's defender and took a direct shot. The ball was saved by the goalkeeper; in the 71st minute, Suarez received a pass from his teammate and shot from a small angle, and the opponent's goalkeeper struggled to get the ball After 6 minutes, Uruguay got a free kick in the frontcourt, and Forlan passed the ball into the penalty area.

According to statistics after the game, Suarez had 5 shots in the whole game, 4 of which were within the range of the goal frame, but the heroic performance of the opposing goalkeeper made him get an embarrassing zero.In addition to shooting, Suarez had 30 passes and six violations.

Just looking at these statistics and performance on the field, if Uruguay were eliminated today, then Suarez would definitely be the culprit. It was he who wasted many shooting opportunities that caused Uruguay to be unable to overtake the score for a long time, especially after the halftime break of the team Already used up two substitutions. In the second half of the game, when the physical fitness of other teammates was overdrawn, Suarez frequently wasting opportunities seemed more like suicide.

But the game did not end there, and Suarez's way of saving the team was also somewhat different: Ghana launched a fierce attack wave at the end of overtime, and goalkeeper Muslera had already attacked. At this time, the Ghanaian player scored twice in the penalty area Chances on goal, but both times it was Suarez who blocked the ball on the line, the first time he blocked the opponent's shot with his legs, which was no problem, but the second time he directly blocked the ball with his hands The ball came out, and the opposing player immediately stopped attacking and asked the referee to reason. The referee, who was aware of the details, also directly showed a red card to send Suarez off, and awarded Garner a penalty.

When Ji An hit the ball on the crossbar, Suarez, who was waiting in the player channel, raised his arms and cheered. He knew that he was no longer a sinner, but was about to become a savior.

You know, if Suarez hadn’t blocked the opponent’s shot at that time, Uruguay would have had to disarm and surrender within 120 minutes. After all, Uruguay’s gate was already empty at that time. He was sent off, but he helped the team win the last chance to breathe, and this last breath saved the dying team. Uruguay survived successfully by luck, and gave the team a chance to survive, It was Suarez who frequently wasted opportunities in the game.

Today's Suarez is also reminiscent of the legendary Argentine star Kempes.

In the 1978 World Cup, Argentina met Poland in the second stage of the group stage. The Argentine goalkeeper had lost his position in an attack by the opponent. At this time, facing the opponent's shot, Kempes held the ball out of the goal like a volleyball player. , the referee awarded a penalty kick, but the penalty kick from the Polish player was saved by the Argentine goalkeeper. In the end, the Pampas Eagles won 2-0. With this victory and a 6-0 victory over Peru in the final round, Argentina finally Reached the final and finally won the yuan.It can be said that Suarez's contribution today is no less than that of Kempes back then. If Uruguay can really beat the Netherlands to enter the final, then Suarez's handball today will undoubtedly become an indelible memory in the history of Uruguayan football.

Uruguay vs Ghana penalty shootout.Ghana's Aditya takes a penalty kick.Muslera made a save to the bottom right corner.He vaguely touched the ball.He fell to the ground, with sweat and green grass in front of his eyes.Then, he heard the audience erupting at that moment.Some people are holding their heads in regret.Some people were roaring crazily.Some people have already burst into tears!The world media is saying: "Ten years later, the miracle of Toldo appeared on Muslera again!"

No amount of words can describe how important what Muslera did to Uruguay in the battle between Uruguay and Ghana.As you know, there are no more than three kinds of the most painful people in this world.A beauty who was once magnificent, but now looks old; a rich man who was once rich, but now lacks food and clothing; a champion who once looked down on the world, but now everyone can bully him.Uruguay, a two-time world champion, have not been able to reach the semi-finals of the World Cup for 40 years. For 40 years, what kind of shame and grievances have the men playing football in Uruguay endured?

Faced with such pressure, God directed a play that belongs to the Uruguayans.The annotation for this script is: People with heart disease should stay away.The key core of this script is Muslera.The fact is that if he can't save a penalty, then the blessing of the door frame and Suarez's sacrifice will be meaningless!

But Muslera did.In the last minute of extra time, the Ghanaian stood in front of the penalty spot.Muslera stood in front of the goal, but Gyan hit the lintel of the most important penalty in African football history.You can say that it was God who blew his breath and blew the ball tens of centimeters higher.You can also say that this is Muslera's deterrence, which makes the opponent confused.No matter how you understand it, there is one thing you must admit: From this moment on, Muslera stood at the gate of Uruguay together with God.

In the third round of the penalty shootout, Ghana's experienced captain Mensah shot the ball low to the lower right corner. Muslera made a miraculous pounce and blocked the ball tenaciously.But just moments later, Maxi Pereira of Uruguay kicked the penalty into the sky.At this moment, the penalty score became a tie again.Ghanaians seem to see the hope of resurrection.In the psychological "gas field", the Ghanaians started to cheer up again. They walked out of the shadow of Ji'an's tragedy and started to regain their confidence.If Muslera doesn't do something at this time, then from a psychological point of view, the Uruguayans will be at a disadvantage!

In a few minutes, the ups and downs of the storyline tormented everyone's will.Not a real strong man, his legs would tremble even standing there!Muslera stood there.He didn't tremble.He is resolute and decisive, staring at his opponent with his eyes, like a lion that is ready to bite at any time—just like Toldo who stood in front of the door in 2000 and made his opponent shudder.

Muslera saved everything.He saved his second penalty in a row.The person standing in front of him is AC Milan star Aditya, who was the mvp winner of last year's World Youth Championship - you must know that in the Ghanaian youth team that won the World Youth Championship, Aditya was a shooter who hit every penalty.But in the face of such a tough role, Muslera resolutely chose to rush to the lower right corner firmly and bravely.He dived in that direction for the second time in a row and saved his opponent's penalty for the second time in a row.

In those few minutes, Muslera twice saved the team's fate by saving penalty kicks.The fact is that the Ghanaian stood in front of Muslera and took a total of 5 penalty kicks, 3 of which were missed!It is no exaggeration to say that this is the spirit of Toldo in 2000. In 2000, Toldo also saved two penalty kicks in the penalty shootout (one was saved in regular time, and the Netherlands had another two penalty kicks that flew or hit the goal frame).Muslera's skills are even stronger than Buffon's in saving penalty kicks!

In fact, Muslera is undoubtedly one of the rookie goalkeepers in today's football who is best at saving penalties. In the 2009 Coppa Italia final, Lazio won a penalty shootout and Muslera saved two penalties. In the past two years, in two key battles, Muslera used his hands to bring dignity to a once declining noble team.

When Ji An's penalty hit the door frame above Muslera's head, the world marveled: "God is helping Muslera".However, after the penalty shoot-out, Uruguay's "Window of Montevideo" changed its line: "Muslera, God!"
