Godfather of national football

Chapter 341 Suspense
The lights in the convention and exhibition center were dimmed, and the lights on the stage were turned on. First, there was a Brazilian-style song and dance performance.

The samba is the protagonist, and the black girl on the stage shakes her buttocks like a hand-cranked generator. In any other country, this kind of performance may be a bit too much, but in Brazil, such passionate singing and dancing are just right.

After the song and dance performance, the hostesses and hostesses who presided over today's lottery ceremony walked to the center of the stage.

The hostess in a golden skirt is called Lima, and the host in a handsome suit is called Hibbert.

These two can be described as golden boys and girls in the Brazilian TV circle. The woman once had an affair with Ronaldo, and now she is Hibbert's fiancee.

After a series of unnutritious opening remarks, the hostess Lima welcomed FIFA President Sepp Blatter.

The appearance of Lao Bu received the warmest applause. Regardless of the evaluation of Blatter later, it has to be said that Blatter has contributed a lot to the development of the World Cup to today's height.

Blatter thanked the top 32 delegations for their attendance, reviewed the ups and downs in the history of the World Cup, and even ridiculed the media's accusations against him. Finally, he expressed that he had a clear conscience, and then Blatter returned the time to the beautiful hostess at the scene.

A burst of applause sent Blatter off the stage. When the old man walked down the steps, did he think that this was his last World Cup? Some people said that Blatter sent the World Cup to Russia, but perhaps he himself did not think that he would not participate in the 2018 World Cup.

Then a heavyweight guest appeared on the stage, he was the Brazilian football king Pele. As soon as Pele came on stage, the hostess gave her a blow. The first question was, "Do you think Brazil can enter the final?"

Pele was stunned on the spot after listening to it, maybe because he felt that he was too abrupt. After the hostess asked the question, he also laughed. If it was on other occasions, Pele would have ignored it, but not today. He finally smiled and said: "I have confidence in Brazil. I think Brazil can enter the final."

The director on the scene was bad enough, and immediately cut the camera to Scolari, as if to mean "you are dead!"

After an awkward opening speech, Bailey, as the host, welcomed the guests from all over the world and said that Brazil was ready to host a great World Cup. After a few polite words with the hostess, Bailey left the stage.

Then even if the lottery ceremony officially started, the hostess presided over it alone. She first welcomed the host of the lottery ceremony, who is also the Secretary-General of FIFA-Walker, who will preside over the process of the lottery ceremony, that is, the person who will go to his side after the guest draws the ball.

The hostess introduced today's first draw guest, Hurst from the UK. In 1966, the UK won the World Cup held in its home country.

Walker introduced that Hurst's task is to draw the X in the fourth gear, commonly known as the unlucky guy. Hurst is very nervous at this time. If he draws England, he will be a national sinner.

Hurst's hand moved around in the glass bowl, finally caught a small ball, and whispered, "God help not England."

When it was finally announced, it was Italy. Hurst breathed a sigh of relief. Italy was placed in the second tier, but it was not over yet. Hearst would draw the team in the fourth tier later.

The next second step is to divide the 7 seeded teams except Brazil into the first place in the 7 corresponding groups.

There is no suspense in this link, just to occupy a place, so the guests are still very easy to draw. With the help of Walker, the 8 seeded teams will soon be in their positions, and Brazil will naturally occupy the first place in Group A.

In the third step, the outside world generally regards it as the prototype of the death group, that is, one of the four South American teams (Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Colombia) in the seeded team is drawn, and it will be in the same group as the unlucky X.

This arrangement actually means that FIFA must create a death group. In the end, one of the four will be selected, and Uruguay will be drawn out.

The fourth step is to decide the fate of the teams in the second tier. The 7 teams in the second tier except X will be selected in turn to belong to different groups.

So far, the drawing ceremony is halfway through, and the prototype of the death group has been formed, which must be the group of Uruguay and Italy.

Next, the third round will be drawn, which is the time to decide the fate of the Chinese team. The guest of the draw is Mateus, a member of the Italian World Cup champion in 90.

Li Guo closes his eyes, whenever he hears China, he just opens his eyes to see the result.

Having said that, when it was the turn of the death group, Li Guo still pricked up his ears. Costa Rica was drawn into the death group in his previous life, but now he doesn't know what will happen?
"China!"

Li Guo opened his eyes and searched on the big screen, and found that the Chinese team was assigned to Group B, along with Spain and Chile.

"I got the country you lived in," Li Guo said with a chuckle.

Zhou Dun pouted, it was a special feeling for him, because he almost played for the Chilean team, maybe he will meet his childhood partner next year.

"Head, I'm curious, why did you notice Chile first and not Spain?"

Zhou Dun thought this was unreasonable, and Li Guo smiled cunningly, "Maybe I am a prophet."

There is still the last round, which is the belonging of the fourth-tier team. Hurst played again. This old guy is about to suffer from a heart attack. You must know that the fate of England is in his hands.

Walker didn't think it was messy enough, and joked: "Which group do you want England to be in?"

Hurst looked at the big screen and said with a smile: "They all look very strong, can I ask the beautiful hostess over there to complete the final draw for me?"

Valk smiled slightly, "Of course not."

Hurst shook his head and said, "Come on, let's get this done."

"Next, the fourth team in Group B will be decided," Walker said. Li Guo still closed his eyes and listened with his ears.

"Bosnia and Herzegovina."

This is the first time for the rookies to participate in the World Cup, but they are not weak. There are Dzeko, Pjanic and other stars who have played for European teams. However, compared with opponents like the Netherlands, France, and Portugal, the last opponent of the Chinese team can be said to be quite good.

The most tense group of death is about to be produced. With fewer and fewer balls in the glass bowl, England has not yet appeared, which means that England's fate is getting more and more difficult.

The team that Hurst is about to draw will enter the group where Uruguay, Italy, and Costa Rica are located, and the old man's hand has not left the glass bowl for a long time.
