Chapter 403 Semifinals

Time passed very quickly, and the day that countless Huaxia fans were looking forward to finally came. At 7 o'clock in the morning on July 12, BJ time, the semi-finals of this World Cup will be played. Lippi and Huaxia team will fight against Croatia.

This game will be held at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow. This is a very old stadium, and it is currently the largest stadium in Russia, which can accommodate more than 8 spectators.

If it was any other game, the stadium might not be full, but the Huaxia team's game must be full of holes. Although the stadium is very big today, it was still full of spectators early.

Moreover, there are extraordinarily many reporters who came to the scene today, not only many domestic reporters, but also a lot of foreign reporters. This competition is about who will advance to the final.

The Huaxia team participated in the World Cup for the second time, and it was the first time to advance to the semi-finals of the World Cup. Another team, Croatia, advanced to the semi-finals of the World Cup again after 20 years.

The process of advancing to the top four is also very different. The Huaxia team all ended the game in regular time, and after the Croatian team emerged from the group, they won the 4/1 finals and 8/1 finals through penalty shootouts.

Both sides are preparing for the game with all their strength. After the two sides entered the stadium in a dedicated bus, everyone's faces were very serious. At this point, both sides hope to go further.

"Hello, audience friends. Welcome to today's game. Today we will bring you the semi-final of the World Cup. The Chinese national team will face the Croatian team. I am He Wei, the commentator for today." He Wei began to explain.

"Hi everyone, I'm Yu Tian, ​​today's guest commentator." Yu Tian followed Hong Gang.

"The starting lineups of the two teams have come out. First of all, the Croatian team has officially given a 4-2-3-1 formation." He Wei began to introduce the Croatian team's starting lineup.

"The first is the goalkeeper. Subasic is the starting goalkeeper for the Croatian team."

"Then there are the defenders. Vrsaljko and Strinic are the full-backs on both sides, and Lovren and Vida are the double central defenders. This is an experienced defender."

"Next is the midfield. Rebic and Perisic are on the two sides, and Rakitic, Brozovic and Modric are in the midfield."

"Finally, in terms of striker, Mandzukic serves as the center forward of the Croatian team."

"Then for the Huaxia team, the official formation is 4-4-2." He Wei began to introduce the Huaxia team's starting lineup.

"The first is the goalkeeper. Wei Qi, as the first goalkeeper of the Huaxia team, is still the first player in this game."

"Then for the defenders, Li Dongsheng and Zhang Xiao act as the two side defenders, and Huang Yi and Wang Xiaoyong act as the double central defenders."

"The next step is the midfield. Zhang Yaotian and Li Long are the midfielders on both sides, and Shi Wei and Song Xuefeng are in the midfield."

"Finally, as for the forwards, Chen Yangyang returned to the starting lineup, and Chen Chen also returned to the starting lineup after a game rest."

"It is worth mentioning that the current World Cup Golden Boot is Kane of the England team. Kane has scored 6 goals so far, while Chen Chen of the Huaxia team has scored 5 goals so far."

"If he scores a goal in this game, then Chen Chen will be tied for the top scorer list with Kane, and the England team has already been eliminated, so maybe Chen Chen still has a chance to surpass Kane."

So far, the starting lineups of both sides have been introduced. There are no surprises in the starting lineups of both sides. Both sides have put out the most trustworthy starting lineups.

"Coach Yu Tian doesn't know if you have any personal views on this game?" He Wei asked Yu Tian curiously.

"This game is really hard to say." The Yu Tian team did not have much confidence in this game.

"Although both the Internet and some media believe that the Huaxia team is the favorite to win the championship, the Croatian team is definitely not weak, and the Huaxia team may not necessarily win." Yu Tian continued to explain.

"On the Croatian team, only Brozovic, Rebic and Vrsaljko are born in the 90s. The rest of the players are all born in the 80s. The age of the Croatian team is much older than that of the Huaxia team."

"The youth of the Huaxia team is both an advantage and a disadvantage. Youth represents the future, but the corresponding experience is relatively lacking."

"The thing that the Huaxia team needs to be wary of most is undoubtedly the Croatian midfielder Modric. The Huaxia team must limit Modric."

"Although the Croatian team has rich experience and strong overall strength, the probability of the Huaxia team winning is quite high. The Huaxia team must use their impact."

"And the height of the Huaxia team has an advantage. The Croatian team has two central defenders, one is 1 meters and the other is 84 meters. The Huaxia team can use high-altitude balls appropriately."

The viewers who watched the live broadcast were a little worried at first when they heard what Yu Tian said. They didn't expect Yu Tian to have such a high opinion of the Croatian team, but after they heard Yu Tian say that the Huaxia team had a relatively high chance of winning, they felt more at ease.

. . . . . .

Players from both sides are still in the locker room. Lippi is doing the final tactical guidance. The faces of all the players are full of seriousness. It is not long before their debut.

Zheng Zhi, as the oldest player in the Huaxia team, knew that he might not be able to play, but Zheng Zhi was still working hard to boost the morale of the players.

Zheng Zhi didn't think about the team, and he was here before he knew it. Before the start of the World Cup, Zheng Zhi only hoped that the Huaxia team could qualify for the group stage.

Time passed very quickly, and soon the two sides were going to the player tunnel. After the players of both sides came to the player tunnel, the two sides began to appear in two teams.

When the audience on the sidelines saw the players finally appearing on the stage, they all burst into loud applause, and everyone was very excited.

After arriving at the stadium, the two sides lined up and shook hands with each other in a friendly manner, and the head coaches of the two sides also greeted each other, and both returned to their respective coaches' benches. Lippi could not see any emotion on his face.

Soon the captains of the two sides came to the referee team and distributed the right to kick-off by flipping coins. In the end, the Croatian team won the right to kick-off.

After the players from both sides came to their respective positions, the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game on time. Following the whistle of the referee, the scene once again burst into loud applause.

After the kick-off, the Croatian team continued to conduct, hoping to infiltrate the Huaxia team's defense, and the Huaxia team's defense line was very stable in this game. Coupled with Shi Wei and Song Xuefeng's two midfielders, the Croatian team's instigation of the attack ended in failure.
