The strongest winger

Chapter 815 China VS Germany
The two games on the first match day of the World Cup in South Africa all ended in draws, which put pressure on the six teams in the three games on the second match day.

After the game, the media criticized the two games that ended. They believed that modern football is becoming more and more utilitarian, and that the ignorant defense makes football games lose their most pure charm and appreciation, which is a kind of degradation.

However, against this background, the South Korean team beat the Greek team with two unimaginable goals, and Argentina beat Nigeria 1-0 in another game in the same group. It is optimistic that Messi did not continue his excellent state in the 2009-2010 season of La Liga and the Champions League.

The next game not only attracted the attention of Ai Luo, but also the head coaches of the four teams in Group D were very concerned, because the two teams that qualified in Group D will face the top two teams in Group C in the 1/8 finals.

That's right!

The first round of group matches in Group C is: England VS United States.

Of course, Ai Luo's attention to the game itself is not as complicated as that of the coaches of the four teams in Group D. He just wants to 'revisit' England's goalkeeper Green's stunt and buttery hand in the first half...

In the 41st minute of the game, the butter hand that Ai Luo was looking forward to appeared.

Green faced the American player Dempsey's weak long-range shot of more than 35 meters. He should have embraced it without any surprises, but for some reason, Green, who was in a posture and leaned over to hold the ball, made a fatal mistake. The football unexpectedly jumped out of his arms and continued to roll towards the gate...

By the time he reacted, it was too late, because the football had already crossed the goal line.

The US team unexpectedly won a draw.

The English media can be said to be the most developed media on the planet, and the pertinence is particularly obvious. Green, who made a fatal mistake, was immediately criticized by the English media and almost became the public enemy of the entire country, just like Beckham who received a red card for revenge on Simeone in the 1998 World Cup in France...

Under the pressure of the media, head coach Fabio Capello had no choice but to declare that he would use the second goalkeeper in the second round of the group stage—veteran James.

The group match of the Chinese team VS German team is scheduled for the last game on the third match day, and the venue is the Durban Stadium.

※※※

The day before the game, almost all Chinese fans who had tickets for the match between China and Germany arrived in Durban to cheer for the Chinese team.

And there are still many Chinese who do not have tickets to this seaport city in South Africa. They hope to meet some local fans who have bought tickets but have no time to watch the game.

Of course, they have also made another preparation. Even if they can't buy tickets for the time being, they will stay outside the stadium to cheer for the national team in the stadium and contribute their own strength.

Or to be precise, the Chinese fans who came to Durban without a ticket came to experience the atmosphere of the World Cup for themselves...

According to incomplete statistics, there are more than [-] Chinese fans who came directly to Durban, South Africa with domestic visas.

If you add the local study, work or overseas Chinese in South Africa, there will likely be more than 10 people. That is to say, the group D match between the Chinese team and the German team will very likely occupy half of the stadium stands. At that time, the five-star red flag is flying in the stadium, and the Chinese players fighting on the field will devote more energy to the game until they win!
The most notable among them is the "Dragon Team Fan Club" which was formed only last year. From the first day they arrived in Durban, they gathered in any place where the Chinese team appeared. Whether it was eating, training, resting, or adapting to the competition venue, they would always see them in uniform.

The 'Dragon Team Fan Club' has a dedicated leader, so it looks quite professional, with well-prepared banners, slogans and posters, which immediately attracted countless fans who came to Durban to join in...

No one would have thought that the scattered and inconsistently dressed Chinese retail fans would become high-quality professional fans in just two days after being trained in batches by the various heads of the "Dragon Team Fan Club".

There are even dedicated people who paint the national flag on the face of fans who have leaked their passion for free on the day of the game.

As the game time approached, Durban, which was already full of World Cup atmosphere, became more fanatical with the passionate participation of Chinese fans.

It is worth mentioning that when the Chinese and German fans lined up to enter the stadium, there were some small frictions between the fans of the two sides. Fortunately, the security personnel in charge of security responded quickly and killed the signs of the conflict in the cradle.

"Hello, fans. The stadium we see now is Durban Stadium, one of the ten stadiums hosting this World Cup. In a few hours, the Chinese team and the German team will start a fierce battle in this stadium. Before the game, we have received news that Aiello, who has returned from injury, will appear in the starting lineup as the captain, so domestic fans can have sufficient confidence to look forward to this game..."

A reporter from CCTV 8 stood at the entrance of A[-] ticket holders of the Durban Stadium, facing the camera, and said happily.

Immediately afterwards, the reporter randomly selected fans who supported China. Surprisingly, many local South African fans chose to support the Chinese team.

There are not a few teams such as CCTV reporters who immediately interview, both domestic and foreign.

中国和德国的小组赛较量是在南非当地时间六月NO.13晚上08:30进行，也就是BJ时间NO.14凌晨02:30。

Although there is a serious conflict between the game time and China's work and rest time, it has not affected the enthusiasm of Chinese fans to watch the game. Hundreds of millions of fans staying in the country are ready for a "dark war".

Many domestic companies took advantage of the trend to adjust their company’s relevant rules and regulations during the World Cup, especially when they owned the Chinese team’s game time. They have made relevant changes, just like the regular working hours in China and Germany changed from [-] to [-] to [-] pm to [-] pm.

The match between Serbia and Ghana will be played before the group stage between China and Germany.

After 10 and [-] minutes of fierce fighting, Ghana defeated Serbia with a penalty kick to take the lead in the group stage, and this penalty kick was also the first penalty kick in this World Cup.

The match between Ghana and Serbia had just ended, and the live broadcast of CCTV [-] switched back to BJ Studio, and the countdown time for the start of the group match between China and Germany was displayed directly opposite the camera.

From the perspective of the camera, the game time is just two hours and a few minutes away, and at this time there are already many fans waiting in front of the TV, waiting for the game to start.

Those fans who sat in front of the computer were more straightforward. They watched all the highlights of the Chinese team's promotion to the World Cup. Listening to the background music played from the speakers, they were extremely excited. Especially when the Chinese team won the right to qualify, they also sent the Japanese team to the play-offs, which made all Chinese fans feel very comfortable.

CCTV's Team China World Cup promotional video also attracted attention. The wonderful shots and the strong rhythmic background music gave fans who watched the promotional video an illusion that this Chinese team is a world-class team!
At this time, there are countless fans checking their existence every second in the penguin group, post bars, forums, and the new Wolf Weibo that has just emerged in China.

In this context, players from China and Germany appeared...

One hour, four and 10 minutes before the start of the game, the bus of the Chinese team parked at the designated location of the Durban Stadium, which immediately caused a huge sensation.

If the stadium security personnel hadn't reacted quickly enough, it is estimated that the players of the Chinese team would not be able to get off the bus smoothly.

About an hour before the start of the game, players from both sides entered the stadium in batches to warm up, and the seats in the stands slowly filled up. The Chinese fans in red jerseys and the German fans in white jerseys were clearly separated.

Ai Luo looked up at the Chinese fans who occupied half of the country in the stands, and he secretly clenched his fists, "No matter what, we must not let the Chinese people down!!"

The German captain Lahm, who has been paying attention to Ai Luo, followed Ai Luo's eyes and looked at the stands, but he turned his attention back to Ai Luo in the next second. The former German team captain Ballack, who missed the World Cup finals due to injury, told him a lot about Ai Luo's technical characteristics, thinking that he would match Ai Luo in future games.

Everyone knows that the German team's attack on the right is a characteristic, especially the right back Lahm's assists.

However, in the upcoming World Cup group stage, it is very likely that Lahm will not be able to attack, because Aiello is very threatening to attack from the left. German coach Joachim Loew also told captain Lahm before the game, hoping that he will pay more attention to the fast counterattack of the Chinese team.

In the warm-up match against France in China, Aiello has proved that his game state has returned to normal. Whether it is speed or technology, he is at his personal peak, which is an absolute hidden danger for the German team's defense.

The 10-minute warm-up time passed quickly, and the starting players of both sides returned to their respective locker rooms.

And the narrators from various countries in the on-site commentary seats were also making the final preparations. Huang Jianxiang and He Wei nervously adjusted the earphone connection to see if there was any problem with the signal connection.

After everything has been checked, they will reorganize and review the manuscripts prepared in advance, such as the technical characteristics of the players on both sides, how they performed in the recent warm-up matches, how many national team games they have played, and the average number of goals per game...

At the same time, Chinese and German fans in the stands sang the national anthem of their homeland while waiting.

The football game is called Modern Warfare, and players from both sides will fight on the field after 10 minutes.

And the fans... also started a different kind of struggle in the stands.

As for the idle reporters, they chatted in twos and threes, or collected interesting shots from the stands...
