My football skills are so strong! I am the king of control

On Lin Chen's left was Diego Costa, and on his right was Asensio. The two followed Lin Chen closely into the locker room.

The three of them kept covering their mouths while talking, and no one knew what they were talking about, but judging from the rare smile on Diego Costa's face, the Spanish players were obviously very relaxed.

"Do you think it's possible that the Sakura team suddenly scored five goals in the second half and achieved a super comeback?"

Ronaldo suddenly turned his head and said this to Casillas, with his whole body stretched out.

Casillas replied unhappily: "Is there a possibility that in the next knockout match we face Brazil, Spain will pay tribute to Germany directly."

Ronaldo froze in place instantly.

That classic battle between Brazil and Germany, in which Brazil was ultimately defeated, is still discussed by many fans today.

Ronaldo originally wanted to tweak Casillas' mentality. Compared to Spain, he obviously hoped to see the Sakura team advance to the next knockout round.

This means that Brazil's opponent in the next quarter-elimination round will be the Sakura team, not Spain.

But it's difficult. Trailing by three goals, the Sakura team needs a miracle to make a comeback.

A super super huge miracle.

In the Spanish locker room, Hierro did not change tactics and he was very satisfied with the team's performance in the first half.

Then he said something that Lin Chen had heard from Klopp countless times.

"This is the best first half I've ever seen you play!"

Lin Chen could only try his best to hold back his smile and prevent the corners of his mouth from rising.

"You played exactly the tactical style we should have played."

"There is control, offense, and beautiful teamwork, both small-scale coordination and large-scale transfers. This is the effect we want."

"Lin, you performed very well in the first half." Hierro suddenly pointed at Lin Chen. Lin Chen was trying hard to suppress the corners of his mouth. Seeing Hierro pointing at him, he immediately suppressed his expression and nodded.

"Hmm...hmm."

"Yes, yes, yes, that's right."

Hierro continued to emphasize.

"In the second half we have to continue scoring goals and seize every opportunity. Remember, we must not miss any opportunity!"

"If you let them see hope, they will fight back like hungry tigers, so we must kill all their hopes in the cradle!"

Hierro has played in many major competitions, as have Xavi, Raul and David Villa. Athletic Bilbao's special coach Zabia is also arranging a defensive system for Pique and Ramos.

"Genki Haraguchi has been creating opportunities for Yuya Osako, but their only way of attacking now is the long pass."

"Don't risk waiting for them to stop the first point. We have to grab the first point and then clear it quickly."

"Busquets, remember to retreat on time. If Ramos or Pique heads the ball, it will be your turn to defend."

Although it is basically impossible for the two central defenders to miss the ball, Zabia still made full preparations to ensure that there would be no mistakes.

On the other side, the Sakura team made a substitution. Gaku Shibasaki, whose performance in the first half was disastrous, was replaced by a young, intercepting midfielder that few fans had heard of, named Endo Wataru!

As a midfielder, Endo Kou has strong intercepting ability and a good sense of position, but he is relatively young and lacks experience.

The commentators in all the major live broadcast rooms were very confused when they saw Yuan Tenghang being substituted.

"The experienced Shibasaki Gaku was powerless against Lin Chen. Substituting Yuan Tenghang, are they trying to use young players against young players?"

“The effect could be worse.”

A moment later, the second half of the game officially began.

After Yuan Tenghang came on the court, he was indeed facing Lin Chen. Together with Hasebe Makoto and Inui Takashi, they were in the middle lane to restrict Lin Chen.

Shinji Kagawa retreated, and since there were three people defending Lin Chen, he needed to provide backup for Thiago.
