Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 466 Everyone is drunk, I wake up alone

As soon as the second goal was scored, Chen Ran was completely relieved.

There is basically no suspense for the Brazilian team to advance to the semi-finals. Neymar is now sitting on the bench and there will be no risk of injury.

Whether facing Germany or France in the semi-finals, the Brazilian team can play with the full main lineup.

As for the outside world's doubts about his replacement of Neymar, as long as the Brazilian team can finally win the championship trophy, these noises will automatically disappear.

However, something Chen Ran didn't want to see happened in the next game.

Colombia's right-back Suniga shoveled William, who replaced Neymar, in a defense.

After the emergency treatment, the team doctor still gestured to Chen Ran on the sidelines for a substitution.

"Fuck! If Chen Ran hadn't replaced Neymar with William, wouldn't it be Neymar who was injured now?"

"Really? If Chen Ran can even predict this kind of thing in advance, it would be awesome."

"Yes, did Chen Ran expect this to happen?"

"Is the person upstairs crazy? Chen Ran doesn't know how to tell fortunes, how could he know that Neymar will be injured?"

"Then how do you explain that Chen Ran replaced Neymar in less than 10 minutes?"

"Eh, what he said to Neymar has already been spread. He thinks that the Brazilian team will have no problem winning the game, so he saves his strength for the semi-finals in advance."

"Hehe, you also believe this kind of nonsense, is there such a way to preserve strength?"

"That's right. Colombia is not a big team. It's not safe to have a one-goal lead. It's really unreasonable for Chen Ran to replace Neymar, the core of the attack, in the first 10 minutes."

"Then what do you mean? Could it be that Chen Ran can really predict the future?"

"I think based on Chen Ran's abnormal performance over the years, this guy is probably a reborn. He knew that Neymar would be injured in this game, so he replaced him in advance."

"I'll go! Upstairs, you've read too many online novels, right? Even reborn people have appeared."

"That's right. I usually read online novels. If Chen Ran is really a reborn, he would have too many investment opportunities to skyrocket. He would go out of his mind to buy Crystal Palace, an unknown English championship team."

"Maybe Chen Ran was a fan in his previous life?"

Chen Ran didn't know that his identity as a reborn was almost discovered by fans.

At this time, he was busy replacing the injured Willian with Casemiro and Kaka with Coutinho.

Chen Ran asked Coutinho to replace Kaka as the attacking midfielder, and then let Hulk and Diego Costa work together as a double striker.The team's formation has also changed from 4231 to 4312.

In the final minutes of the game, the Brazilian team began to shrink their formation to play defensive counterattacks.

Once the Brazilian team changes, Colombia, which lacks a strong center, will make it even more difficult to break through the Brazilian team's defense.

In the end, with the goals of Thiago Silva and David Luiz, the two central defenders, Brazil defeated Colombia 2:0.

While successfully advancing to the semi-finals, Chen Ran also got a "first-level chicken blood card" from the system.

However, because Thiago Silva received a yellow card in this game, this will cause him to be suspended for accumulative yellow cards in the next semi-finals, and it will also cast a shadow on the victory of this game. layer shadows.

At the post-match press conference, media reporters from all over the world unsurprisingly raised questions about Chen Ran replacing Neymar so early.

"Excuse me, Mr. Chen, why did you replace Neymar in less than 10 minutes of the game?"

"Don't you all already know what I said to Neymar, that's why I replaced Neymar so early."

Chen Ran, who has dealt with media reporters for so many years, is already invulnerable to swords and guns, and started to play Tai Chi with reporters lightly.

"Mr. Chen, within 10 minutes of the start of the game, you concluded that Brazil can beat Colombia. Do you think Colombia is too weak to pose a threat to Brazil?"

"I definitely don't mean that. Colombia is a very strong team and it's not easy for any team to beat them. I just have confidence in our Brazilian defense and I believe they can hold a one-goal lead. Advantage."

Chen Ran opened his eyes and spoke nonsense, while watching the reporters in the audience with the expressions of "I believe you are a ghost", and he was not moved at all.

"Mr. Chen, William, who replaced Neymar, was shoveled by the Colombian defender in the second half of the game. There is a saying that you predicted this situation in advance, so you replaced Neymar in advance to avoid him being injured. Is this statement true?"

"Haha, this reporter is really good at joking. If I really have such a magical ability, then I will definitely use it to predict the number of the first prize in the lottery."

As in the previous life, Brazil's opponent in the semi-finals is Germany, while Argentina will compete with the Netherlands for another place in the final.

"Brazil vs. Germany, it's hard to say who will win."

"That's right, the German team has always been one of the most difficult teams to deal with among the strong teams, and now the Brazilian team has encountered a ruthless character."

"The main reason is that the German team's style of play is too tough, and it's a bit against a technical team like the Brazilian team."

"That's true. It's okay if the Brazilian team scores first, but if the German team scores first, it will be very difficult for the Brazilian team to get back."

"That depends on Chen Ran's on-the-spot command ability. Didn't he replace Neymar early in the last game, obviously he has already prepared in advance for this semi-final."

"Haha, it depends on whether Chen Ran can continue his miraculous performance and lead Brazil to the final."

Since succeeding Klinsmann as Germany national team coach in 2006, Loew has sat in this position for eight years.

Under his leadership, the German team won the runner-up in the 2008 European Cup and the third place in the 2010 World Cup.

Moreover, during Loew's coaching period, the German team successfully completed the renewal.Now most of the players in this German national team are selected by Loew himself, and then they grow into the main force of the team step by step.

Facing the host Brazil, Loew will naturally not adopt the tactics of placing the bus like those coaches of weak teams.

He still adopted the German team's consistent offensive style of play, ready to beat his opponents at home in Brazil.

On the Brazilian side, Chen Ran hesitated a bit about the starting lineup and tactical choices for this game.

Although because of his rebirth, the international football pattern in this life has undergone tremendous changes.

However, William, who replaced Neymar in Brazil's game against Colombia, still failed to escape the injury, which made Chen Ran have to ring the alarm in his heart.

The inertia of the wheel of history is beyond imagination.

Although in the history of the World Cup, the big score of 7:1 is not unique.

However, in the past, this kind of score usually only appeared in the group stage between two teams with distinct strengths and weaknesses.

In the semi-finals, it was still between two strong teams of comparable strength. This was a record score, and it was also an eternal pain in the hearts of the Brazilians.

Now, although Neymar escaped the fate of being injured and can play the game, the absence of Thiago Silva made Chen Ran feel a little uneasy all the time.

The Brazilian team has never lacked talented players on the offensive end. Whether they can win the World Cup depends more on whether their defensive players are reliable at the time.

And Thiago Silva is one of the few reliable central defenders in Brazil.This is also an important reason why he was able to represent Brazil in the World Cup at the age of 38.

Now that Thiago Silva couldn't play, Chen Ran immediately lost confidence in Brazil's defense.

Neither Dante nor Marquinhos has the ability to replace Thiago Silva, so Chen Ran is not at ease.

For the German team, Chen Ran also did ample research.

Especially their current midfielder Toni Kroos is currently playing for the Crystal Palace club.At the beginning, Chen Ran ran to Germany in person and snatched it from Bayern Munich.

Although Toni Kroos is only 24 years old this year, it is precisely because of his rapid growth that Kaka has now been squeezed to the bench and has become one of the main midfielders of Crystal Palace.

Coupled with the cooperation of Klose, Muller, Ozil and other offensive players, the German team's offensive power is a huge threat.

After repeated weighing, Chen Ran finally came up with a jaw-dropping starting lineup.

Forward Diego Costa, shadow forward Neymar

Central midfielders Fernandinho, Central midfielders Casemiro, Central midfielders Ramirez

Left back Marcelo, center back Marquinhos, center back David Luiz, center back Dante, right back Alves

When Chen Ran told the assistant coaches about the starting lineup he made, everyone was shocked.

"Boss, did you get the wrong starting list?"

They obviously couldn't believe their eyes and kindly reminded them.

"Yes, this is our starting lineup against Germany."

"Boss, if I'm not mistaken, are you planning to form a 532 formation for defensive counterattack?"

"Yes, your judgment is absolutely correct."

"But, boss, we are the Brazilian team."

"I know. What? Can't the Brazilian team play defensive counterattacks?"

"Boss, in fact, against the German team, we don't need to send three central defenders. Although Thiago is suspended and cannot play, it is enough to replace him with Dante. After all, Dante is the main player of the Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich. Defender, he knows those Germans very well."

Chen Ran sneered in his heart. In his previous life, the Brazilian team replaced Thiago Silva with Dante, and was beaten 7:1.

Although it wasn't Dante's fault alone, Chen Ran never dared to place his bet on this guy.

"Okay, don't say any more, this is my final decision. It's still the same sentence, if something goes wrong, I will bear the responsibility alone."

Chen Ran's starting lineup not only aroused opposition from his assistants.

On the day of the game, after the Brazilian team announced the starting list, the fans immediately exploded.

"Well, this is the starting lineup of the Brazilian team? What does Chen Ran want to do?"

"Good guy, five defenders, three midfielders, and only two offensive players, is the Brazilian team so cowardly?"

"What's wrong with Chen Ran? Although the German team is very strong, the Brazilian team is no worse than them. As for showing weakness?"

"That's right. Five-star Brazil is still at home. Can the Brazilians agree with Chen Ran's formation?"

"I didn't expect Chen Ran to be so afraid of the German team. No wonder he replaced Neymar early to prepare for the game against Colombia."

"Hey, it's fine if the Brazilian team can eliminate the German team in this game. If they lose to Germany, then Chen Ran will definitely be scolded to death by the Brazilians."

"I don't understand! I hope Chen Ran's decision is right, and I can only wish him good luck."

On the German side, assistant coach Hans Flick handed Brazil's starting lineup to head coach Loew and said: "Joachim, Brazil's starting lineup is very conservative."

Loew, who also studied the Brazilian team carefully, just glanced at the starting list, and his face sank immediately.

"Hans, that Chinese man is very vigilant. Originally, I wanted to take advantage of the suspension of the opponent's main central defender, Thiago Silva, to catch them off guard."

"Now it seems that the opponent has taken precautions against this plan. We must be mentally prepared to play overtime or even take a penalty kick."

"Hans, go and tell the boys that the plan for the opening attack has been cancelled. Change to our usual tactics and play steadily to avoid being attacked by the Brazilian team."

"Yes, Joachim."

Chen Ran didn't know at this time that the German team had adjusted their tactics because of his starting list.

However, when the players of the Brazilian team appeared on the court in the 532 position, Chen Ran could clearly see the abnormal reaction of the Brazilian fans in the entire Mineiro Arena.

He knew in his heart that it was a good thing to win this game.If he loses, Chen Ran will be a stink in Brazil.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Ran looked around the Mineiro Arena.

The feeling that everyone is drunk and I am sober is very obvious.

July 7th, Brazil, Belo Horizonte, Mineiro Arena.

In the 2014 World Cup semi-final, Brazil played against Germany.

Whether it can change the tragedy of Brazil's 1:7 loss to the German team is in one fell swoop.
