Chapter 272 Group Stage

Lauren hugged Lin Lian for a group photo, "Did you see that? This guy is the player I admire the most. He has unparalleled strength. He is my idol."

Lauren made an appointment with a few teammates and came to visit after training.The Confederations Cup has not yet officially started, and it is normal for familiar players to visit each other.

Cameroon national team captain Alexandre Song and young Vivian Foo also came along with them.Lin Lian has done a lot of public welfare in Cameroon, and they are very grateful. Almost all the players of the national team have enjoyed Lin Lian's gifts.

"To be honest, I don't like this kind of game." Vivian Fu nagged, "This season, I played a lot of games, and I feel particularly bad."

The Confederations Cup has been held every two years since its inception, and the overly commercialized packaging has caused dissatisfaction among many players and the national team.Players are too tired. Many countries have responded to this problem, and FIFA is also considering reform.

"To be honest, your friend has some health problems." Walker, Lin Lian's personal doctor, stared at Vivian, "From what we tested just now, his muscles are very tired. If he is not careful, he may cause a heart attack. Stop. It's better to give up too many games and take a good rest."

It's not alarmist, Vivian Fu died suddenly in this Confederations Cup.Now that Lin Lian has met, it is not easy to watch him die. No matter what, he is a good player.

Vivian looked shocked, "Isn't it? What should I do?"

"Take a good rest, or take a rest. If you are playing, you'd better be prepared for the medical conditions of cardiac arrest." Walker made up the knife from a professional point of view, which was scary.

"God, I should report my physical condition to the coach." Vivian was terrified. "I don't want to die. I'm only 22 years old. There's still plenty of time to enjoy life."

Lin Lian patted him on the shoulder, "Really, take a good rest. Or, ensure adequate medical conditions."

All he can do is this.Resign yourself to fate!

Many players came to visit Lin Lian. Although Henry and Vieira of the French team voluntarily withdrew from the Confederations Cup, they are still the big brothers, and they came to help and lead. The main reason is that they just won the Champions League trophy on behalf of Arsenal. .

There are also Brazil's Ze Roberto, Lucio, Italian striker Vieri and others. They are either Lin Lian's old teammates, or Lin Lian's old acquaintances. It is also good to have a chat.

When Vieri and the others came over, Lin Lian asked Zheng Zhi to accompany him, and getting to know the Italian ace player would also be good for him to gain a firm foothold in Serie A.

There are also Qu Bo, Sun Xiang and others who almost want to run around with Lin Lian, so familiar!After all, he is also a player who played in the Champions League, and his strength has increased significantly compared to when he was in China.

When Lin Lian is away, these few people can still support a lot of expectations, otherwise Mancini's team leadership results will be even more unbearable.

Of course, not only players came to visit Lin Lian, but also many friends from the entertainment industry.Alizee, the queen of France, and Charlene, the new princess of Monaco!Chow Yun-fat and Zhang Ziyi, who just starred in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", also took the time to come to condolences.

Even domestic actresses who have been making a lot of noise recently because of the issue of military flag outfits wanted to give Lin Lian some money and speak for her.This is too embarrassing, Lin Lian is not short of money!

Almost affected the team training!Lin Lian was actually quite helpless, as soon as someone became famous, all sorts of bad things would come out.

On June 6, in the first group match, China played against New Zealand.

New Zealand is recognized as the weakest team. Among the teams participating in the Confederations Cup this year, they have no star players. The United States has players like Tim Howard, Donovan and Dempsey.

The first game was also a relatively easy game. Lin Lian showed a strong impact at the beginning.Under the attention of dozens of friends in the stands, he kicked his head and kicked his head, and staged a hat-trick in the first half.

New Zealand collapsed directly. Even though Lin Lian was replaced in the second half, they still failed to organize a decent offense.Even Qu Bo couldn't resist it!

Unfortunately, Qu Bo was unlucky and failed to score.In the end, Huaxia won the first game with a score of 3:0.

At the same time, the French team in the same group defeated Colombia 2:1. Even with a lineup dominated by young players, the French team at home still showed strong combat effectiveness.

In the second game, the French team drew with China.Under the training of Mancini, Huaxia has practiced defensive counterattack tactics quite well, with an economically applicable score of 1:1.

Both parties are satisfied with the result.And Colombia also scored, beating New Zealand 4:1, New Zealand is really weak.

In the last round of the group stage, the French team took the lead to kick-off and easily defeated New Zealand. The score of 2:0 not only retained their strength, but also maintained New Zealand's face, showing the demeanor of a big football country.

In the Group A group match held later, the Huaxia National Football Team faced Colombia.

Both sides have the hope of advancing. Huaxia has 4 points in the two games and has a goal difference of 3. Colombia has 3 points and a goal difference of 2. As long as they beat Huaxia, they will be able to advance to the semi-finals.

At this time, Mancini's tactics finally worked. He modified them according to the Italian tactics, which is more suitable for the rough skills of Huaxia Junior High's backcourt players.

Then make more use of Lin Lian's explosive point, and use Lin Lian as the center of attack to create an attack group.Cooperate with faster players such as Qu Bo and Zhao Junzhe to speed up the impact.

The effect was not bad, Lin Lian scored a goal very quickly. 1:0 lead.

However, the Colombian team was quite strong. In the second half, midfielder Valentiera assisted striker Aristizabal to score and equalized the score.

"As long as this score is enough, we have no other extravagant expectations. As long as we get a 1:1 draw, the national football team can accumulate 5 points and advance as the second place in the group." Duan Xuan was full of enthusiasm.

"After Lin Lian came back, the national football team took on a new look. Sure enough, only the national football team with Lin Lian is the real national football team. It's hard to believe."

Mancini also feels much more at ease on the sidelines. Having an ace is simply the most comfortable thing.What worries him the most is that there is only one Lin Lian.

At the last moment, Qu Bo received a long-distance through pass near Lin Lian's midfielder, advanced at high speed, and quickly cut inside.Then he was tripped to the ground by central defender Vallejo, and sure enough, he rolled around and asked for a penalty.

Sure enough, the referee awarded a penalty kick.

Lin Lian did his part to appear in front of the penalty spot, facing goalkeeper Oscar Cordoba who played for Besiktas in the Turkish Super League.Simple approach, scoop penalty.

It seems very easy to kick the ball in.

2:1, the national football team unexpectedly defeated Colombia.Then relying on the advantage of goal difference, the economic semi-finals.

"Oh...why did Lin Lian score a penalty kick?" Duan Xuan was puzzled, "If the goal is not scored, the National Football Team will play as the second in the group and can face the Cameroon team that is the first in Group B. Now, We will face a really stronger Italy."
