Chapter 949 The Veteran Being Questioned
963 The Veteran Being Questioned
The score in the first half was somewhat unexpected.

No one would have thought.

Costa Rica will end the first half with a goal lead!
Before the game, it was widely speculated that for these two teams that were already determined to qualify.

The pace of the game may not be very fast, and there will not be many goals.

However, England, as the more powerful side, will at least be a draw even if they cannot win the game. If it is a draw, England will qualify first in the group by virtue of its advantage in goal difference.

However.
The score in the first half surprised many fans.

"It is no accident that Costa Rica beat Italy and Uruguay!"

These words came from Duan Xuan's mouth.

Before the game, many commentators said similar things, but there are definitely not many people who really take these words seriously.

And now, people are starting to realize.

For a small team like Costa Rica, their energy may surprise the world!
In the same group as England, Italy, and Uruguay, they won the first place in the group.

I'm afraid it's not impossible!
When players from both sides entered the player channel one after another.

The Costa Rica fans in the stands were overjoyed.

They sang and danced, showing the enthusiasm of the Latin American people on this court.

The Costa Rican beauties were wearing cool clothes and when they saw the camera turn, they blew kisses one after another!
This is the World Cup for the players, why not the World Cup for the fans?
At least for now, people in Costa Rica are enjoying themselves and enjoying their feast.

on the TV screen.

Brian Ruiz's mid-circle lob was played countless times!

"This will be a strong candidate for the best goal of the World Cup!"

Although before this game, there was Van Persie's diving header and Ronaldo's flying fairy, these two goals even had a chance to compete for the Puskas Award.

However, when this lob shot appeared, I am afraid that the committee members who are now in charge of selecting the best goals in the World Cup are the most distressed!

In a World Cup, even before the group stage was over, world-class operations appeared one after another.

It is indeed the World Cup held in Brazil, such a football kingdom!
Even such rare world waves appeared one after another.

"It's Joe Hart again!"

When Duan Xuan's words spread to all parts of China through the TV screen.

Countless Chinese fans smiled knowingly.

This is true for players all over the world.

I don’t know how many times Joe Hart has become the background board of World Wave
Pinto is a little proud now, but also a little nervous.

It is gratifying to lead, but there are still 45 minutes in the game!
What can happen in those 45 minutes, who knows?
Therefore, during the intermission, what he took the time to emphasize was defense!
Desperate defense!

"We're going to cast a steel concrete wall in front of the door!!"

Pinto waved his arms and roared!
He had a look of extreme excitement on his face, but at the same time, he also looked a little distorted!

So do most of the Costa Rican players!
Victory over England, the first group qualifying!Into the second half!

In this way, their opponent is likely to be Greece, thus avoiding Colombia, a strong team!
Costa Rica may even go one step further and enter the quarter-finals! !
Even Navas couldn't help feeling excited when he thought of such a prospect!
"I'm sorry, boss!"

Navas secretly cheered in his heart!

"Even if it's against your team! I will never let you score!!"

Navas's face is glowing!
"Next, we have to face a team that is focused on defense!"

In the locker room, Gao Bo said.He didn't say anything about the conceded goal in the first half. In fact, England's advantage in the first half was crushed, but the opponent triggered Hart's attribute.

Gao Bo looked at Hart, feeling a little sympathetic deep in his heart. In fact, in his heart, losing this game is nothing, and there may even be some benefits - so that these stars in England will not be inflated.

The expressions of many players are very dignified.

Although the head coach repeatedly emphasized not to underestimate Costa Rica before the game, they did not underestimate their opponents.

But unexpectedly, the opponent scored such a goal!
This is so frustrating.

Lampard patted Hart on the back as he sat in the dressing room with a drooping face.

"In the second half, we need to strengthen our shooting!"

Gao Bo said!

Facing the iron barrel array, there is actually no good way.

Costa Rica's defense is very resilient, especially the set-piece defense. It can be seen that the opponent has worked hard.

Trying to attack Costa Rica by breaking through the defense that is creating set kicks may be in the opponent's arms.

It will be even more difficult to deal with the other party's confidence.

Gao Bo looked at Lampard.

In terms of shooting ability, in the England team, Rooney and Vardy are both good. Gerrard's heavy artillery is also powerful and accurate.

However, although Lampard is a midfielder, his shooting skills are definitely better than most forwards-this can be seen from his goals.

In the Premier League, as a midfielder, Lampard squeezed into the top four in the total goals list!
Second only to Alan Shearer, Rooney and Andy Cole.

Even a name like Henry ranks behind Lampard.

It can be seen that Lampard's scoring ability!
Although Lampard is 36 years old, under Gao Bo's hands, age is not a problem at all!
Getting Lampard back to his peak, or even beyond, within a game or two will have no problem at all!

More importantly, the opponent would never have imagined that he would send a 36-year-old veteran in such a game when he was behind!

Perhaps, when the Costa Rica coach sees Lampard playing, he will be surprised.

Pinto was indeed taken aback!
When he saw Lampard running slowly towards the pitch from the sidelines, he didn't hide the surprise in his eyes at all.

Even a little worried.

In the locker room, Pinto called every offensive player who might be sent to the field one by one, and told the players the specific defensive plan.

His work is very meticulous, so as long as there is no problem with Costa Rica's execution, it will be very difficult for England to score goals.

But he really didn't think of it.

In this case, the 36-year-old Lampard actually appeared? !
The camera locked on Lampard for a long time.

It seems that even the director is asking this question.

What can a 36-year-old veteran do in such a field?
