Football irons are burning

Chapter 86 Hurt Again

Sure enough, the next day, the Football Association decided to punish Li Datou quickly. There was no internal suspension, but a fine.

Rehhagel obviously did not favor anyone on this issue, and his proposal was not to suspend the game internally, so as not to affect the morale of the team. After all, Li Datou also stood up for Ou Chuliang.

Besides, there are only a few good players in the national team, and the game is suspended internally. Who will take his place?

So, just pay the fine.

Like Li Tie, he was fined $5.

That night, Li Tie helped Li Datou hand over the fine to Lao Wang.

"Hehe, you bastards are really fast. Tiezi, you are so kind, you can help Datou think so much. Hey, it's a pity, if you and Datou don't stop fighting, is there any hope for us to enter the semi-finals or even win the championship?"

Old Wang has piercing eyes, of course he knows what's going on here.

Li Tie smiled and said: "Of course, everything is possible, but now that you have entered the top 8, you have already exceeded the expectations of the cadres. You, the team leader, have completed your merits and virtues. You will definitely be promoted to the ranks when you go back."

"Come on, you stinky boy, do you think this is a feudal society? And you are promoted to a noble. Okay, don't have any pressure, tell the big head that getting a red card or suspension in the World Cup is not a big problem. You are still young. Don't mess around in the next World Cup and strive for better results. I am optimistic about you guys." Old Wang laughed.

At the same time, the top 8 of the World Cup have all been produced.

With the deepening of the World Cup, the teams have gradually improved, especially the strong teams.

Among the top 8 teams, France, Brazil, the Netherlands, Argentina, and Italy are all traditional strong teams.

China, France, Croatia, and Italy in the first half, Brazil, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Argentina in the lower half.

The top 8 matches will be China against Croatia, France against Italy, Brazil against Denmark, and the Netherlands against Argentina.

Both the Chinese team and Croatia are newcomers to the World Cup. This duel is also a bit interesting. Whoever can go further will make history.

Of course, the Chinese team now lacks Li Tie and Li Datou, and the media is also somewhat optimistic about Croatia. The latter eliminated Romania in the quarter-finals, and the strength shown is even more optimistic.

However, Rehhagel's coaching ability also made the media feel that this game is difficult to predict.

The domestic media continued to clamor, thinking that the Chinese team's morale is booming and their offensive ability is excellent.

In the four games, the Chinese team scored 14 goals, which is the most among the top 8 teams.

According to the analysis of the data party, the opponents will definitely not be able to stop the attack power of the Chinese team.

At the same time, the media also talked about the Yugoslavia team, thinking that the Chinese team is not afraid of this style of team.

France's encounter with Italy is also sparks hitting the earth. Although the host is not particularly convincing, the host's advantage is obvious.The Italian team is the favorite to win every World Cup, but the old Maldini still has not solved the problem of Baggio, let him play or not, this is a big problem.

It is estimated that scoring goals will still be a problem at that time, and it is unlikely that both sides will play football with a big score.

The media also believed that Brazil had taken advantage of it. The Danish team was obviously powerless to prevent the Brazilian team from entering the semi-finals. Now the Brazilian team has become the biggest favorite to win the championship.

The Netherlands is also worth looking forward to playing against Argentina. The Dutch team is very good at total attack and defense. They showed their strength by knocking out their old rivals Germany in the quarter-finals. The old German chariot died miserably, 0:3!

However, the odds of winning the second place in the millennium are still not high. Past history shows that the Dutch team does not have the championship temperament, so they are called the uncrowned kings.

The strength of Argentina is also one of the best. In the war between England and Argentina, they eliminated the England team 6:5 in a penalty shootout and entered the top 8.But without Maradona, whether the Argentine team can win the championship is not particularly optimistic.

It is true that this team has a strong strength, but it is always unconvincing.

The media predicted that this would be another goal-scoring battle.

On July 7, the quarter-finals began in full swing.

Of course Li Tie watched the whole process, and he doesn't have any game tasks right now, so it would be good to learn more from the strong teams.

France and Italy played first, but the two teams played another dull 0:0, and finally relied on mutual penalty kicks to decide the outcome.

This time Baggio was the first to play, and he scored the ball smoothly.

After scoring the goal, Baggio was very excited. Obviously, after he missed a penalty kick in the last World Cup final, the huge psychological pressure made him have a very difficult time.

It's a pity that teammate Di Biagio's penalty was saved by Butters, which also made Butters bald.

In the end, the French team made it through 4:3. The journey was indeed a bit shaky. Fortunately, the hosts still entered the semi-finals, which guaranteed the ratings and attendance of the World Cup.

After all, if there is no host, will French fans go to a team that has nothing to do with them?

In the second quarter-finals, the unpopular Danish team played an unforgettable game. They once led twice in the game. The Laudrup brothers played really well in the curtain call.

But the alien showed his high-tech goal level, and the pendulum was used many times in the game, which almost broke the Danish defender's ankle.

Ronaldo scored a goal and assisted two, leading the Brazilian team to pass.

This level is indeed worthy of the title of alien.And the Brazilian team is so tenacious, and it deserves to be the biggest favorite to win the championship.

The third quarter-final match was also very exciting, and the skills and tactics of both sides were superb.

Ortega, No. 10 of the Argentine team, is really a nimble little donkey. This kid keeps teasing his opponents. Of course, he has been kicked to the ground many times.

His skills are indeed admirable, but he will definitely be injured. You are always extraordinary, and it is no wonder that others can please you, so why not kick you a few times before you find the opportunity?
This Ortega's career, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach a higher level.

At the last moment, Ice Prince Bergkamp sent Argentina away with a very wonderful goal. He received a long pass from his teammate, dunked the opponent's defender, and scored a curve ball to make Argentina cry again.

After watching this game, Li Tie felt that the Argentine team was overestimated. Football is not only about skill.

He also thought of another time and space, the Argentine team with Messi also could not win the World Cup.

It stands to reason that there is absolutely nothing to say about Messi's personal skills. It is No.1 in another time and space, but why can't he lead Argentina to win the championship?
It seems that the overall sport of football really requires collective strength and working together to have the best results.

The last quarter-final game will be played between the Chinese team and the Croatian team.

At 7:4 pm local time on July 7th, the game officially began.

The two teams have no secrets at all, this time it is also to see who can fight harder and grasp the opportunity better.

Rehhagel did not continue the lineup of the previous game against Mexico. The octopus was at the top, Yang Cheng was pulled to the position of the right midfielder, and Zhang Xiaorui played the shadow forward.

This formation is a bit weird.

Li Datou's position was replaced by Zhang Heizi, Rehhagel lined up three midfielders, Sun Jihai, Zheng Zhi and Shao Jiayi!

Obviously, Rehhagel wants to control the midfield, and he does not hesitate to form a formation of three midfielders.

Croatia's offensive in the middle is very powerful, and the cooperation between Boban and Suker is very skilled.The three midfielders contain Boban, which is indeed highly targeted.

For this reason, Rehhagel did not hesitate to sacrifice the forward line and only dispatched a center forward.

Li Tie is sitting behind the goal this time, so that he can watch the performance of his teammates more closely.

At this point, the Chinese team certainly has no psychological burden. The keynote before the game is one word: fight!

After the game started, the Chinese team took the lead in kick-off.

The control of the three midfielders is indeed not bad, and the Chinese team did not rush to attack and passed the ball in the backcourt.

The pass was smooth, and the opponent couldn't grab it, and the scene was flat for a while.

After more than a dozen passes, the ball was quickly handed over to Zhang Xiaorui.

Zhang Xiaorui passed Sordo with a Marseille roundabout, which attracted applause from the stands.

After seeing Octopus twisting and running, Zhang Xiaorui immediately picked a pass. Octopus twisted halfway to catch the ball and volleyed the ball. The ball was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper Latic.

For a corner kick attack, Zhang Xiaorui took it, and Octopus grabbed the spot and shook his head to attack the goal, but was still saved by Latic.

In the first 5 minutes, the Chinese team had the upper hand, and the opponent could only defend passively.

However, the luck of the octopus was really not good enough, or the opponent's goalkeeper played really well, and his several shots were all saved by the opponent's goalkeeper.

This is also a contradiction. There is only one striker, and when attacking, the effect must be less.

Yang Cheng also stayed farther away, and when the octopus twisted more, he relied on shooting instead of passing.

Coupled with Croatia's defensive ability, it is indeed very strong, and this offense has encountered a wall.

In the 6th minute, an accident happened.

When Zhang Xiaorui broke through, Suo Erdo hit his thigh, and he immediately fell to the ground.

As soon as the team doctor checked, Rehhagel was immediately replaced.

Li Tie felt right away that Zhang Xiaorui was really a glass man, which hurt again.

He wanted to heal Zhang Xiaorui's injuries with the villain value, but he thought it might be amazing. The team doctor Lao Yin had already checked and thought that the game could not continue, so he suddenly made Zhang Xiaorui stand up. How amazing is that?
In addition, with only 5 villain points, I'm afraid it may not be able to cure Zhang Xiaorui, who knows what kind of injury this kid has.

Therefore, Li Tie still did not move.
