[Football] Because your eyes are too big

Even though Stephanie and Mesut, the new couple, get along so sweetly, once Christmas is over, Stephanie has to leave the tender hometown of England and fly to Australia, which has an eleven-hour time difference with Britain. .

After finishing the Hopman Cup mixed team competition across the New Year, Stephanie entered the preparations for the Australian Open in January, followed by the French Open in May.

Between Wimbledon and French Open, there are still many games, allowing Stephanie to travel around the world.

"I managed to come to the UK by taking advantage of the opportunity to participate in Wimbledon, but you ran to South America!" After the French Open, Stephanie, who entered the state of preparation for Wimbledon, complained to Mesut.

For Stephanie's complaints, Mesut could only reply with a smirk on the other end of the phone.

Stephanie continued to complain: "Why did Wimbledon crash with the World Cup! I will watch a lot less games like this!"

The World Cup runs from June 24 to July [-], while Wimbledon runs from June [-] to July [-].Stephanie will miss part of the World Cup due to this reason, which makes her extremely depressed. You must know that this World Cup is the first time for her to cheer for Mesut as his girlfriend.

"Believe me, Nini. Neither I nor the German team will work hard. We will let you continue to watch the World Cup after Wimbledon. Of course I hope you can play until the last day of Wimbledon. I am the same It will allow you to see my game on July [-]th."

"It will be!" Stephanie's voice on the phone sounded extremely firm, which showed her confidence in both herself and Mesut.

On this side, Mesut also threw himself into training after having a love call with Stephanie.He hopes to be able to go as far as possible with the team, and hopes to let Stephanie come to watch his game.

Because of time constraints, Stephanie missed the group stage of the World Cup. She can only rely on TV and the Internet to understand this part of the game.

In this World Cup, Germany, Portugal, Ghana and the United States were assigned to Group G together.In addition to the German team being generally optimistic before the game, there is no suspense in qualifying from the group, Portugal, Ghana and the United States have their own advantages, and it seems that anyone is possible to qualify.

As recognized as a team that will surely occupy one of the qualifying places in this group, the German team started their first game in the group stage on June 6. Their opponent was Portugal led by Ronaldo.

Under the leadership of Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese team's performance in recent years has been fairly stable, and they can basically qualify for the group stage.

It's just that this time the World Cup seems to be quite unpopular.Just like another group match before, the last World Cup champions Spain and the Netherlands met in the group stage.Then Spain, which is generally optimistic, lost to the Dutch team with a big score of 1-5, allowing the Oranje to avenge the regret of the last World Cup.

This game between Germany and Portugal is regarded as a touchstone, and many people hope to see the strength of the two teams from this game.

As the team with the most stable performance in the World Series, the German team played as stable as ever, while the performance of Portugal with Ronaldo was very disappointing.The final result of this game is 4-0, the German team won!

After the game, Mesut deliberately hugged his former club teammate Cristiano Ronaldo who was frustrated but forced to smile.They also hugged affectionately before the game. At that time, Ronaldo told him that it would be good if the two of them were teammates. That way Real Madrid would definitely be stronger.

Mesut just smiled at the time. In the year he left Real Madrid, Real Madrid finally won the Champions League.At that time, his mood was indeed very complicated, with some regrets, and he even wondered if he could win the cup if he was still in Real Madrid.

But Stephanie comforted him at the time, she said: "If you are still in Real Madrid, you may be put on the bench. At that time, you may sigh, it would be great if you could play. So all the assumptions There is no need, people must look forward."

Mesut has to admit that Stephanie is right. It is better for him to continue to look forward. For example, think about when he will win the Champions League with Arsenal, or whether he will have the opportunity to touch Dali in this World Cup. Goblet or something.

Mesut feels that as long as he clears his mind, he will be more focused when playing on the field, and his state will be better than before.This 4-0 game also has his share of credit.

After the game, Mesut and Ronaldo had another exchange.After the two hugged, Ronaldo said again: "It would be great if you were my teammate."

Watching Ronaldo return to his national team teammates, Mesut always felt that Ronaldo's words had some other meanings, maybe the teammates he was talking about didn't just refer to Real Madrid.

"He's a good leader." Thomas, who had been crazy with others, came over, just in time to see the back of Ronaldo leaving, and he said something casually.When he said this, Ronaldo had already begun to appease his dejected teammates, and thanked the Portuguese fans who accompanied the team on the expedition.

"Yes." Mesut agreed. "Good luck to Chris and his Portugal."

Mesut's blessing doesn't seem to have much effect.When Germany got one win and one draw and successfully qualified, Portugal and the United States had the same points and the same number of wins and losses. In the end, they were eliminated by the United States because of the goal difference and had to go home.

After seeing the final scoring situation of the group, Mesut can only sigh that Portugal has dug too many holes in the game against Germany, so that it will suffer when it comes to goal difference.

Seeing that the knockout round is about to start, Mesut reminded himself that he must not follow the old path of Portugal, but must cheer up and avoid undue mistakes.

Germany's opponent in the round of [-] is Algeria.Although Algeria is regarded as the dark horse of this World Cup, neither the world rankings nor the stars can be compared with Germany. In addition, the Ramadan coincides with the Algerian players' physical problems. Therefore, experts analyzed before the game. The German team has a great advantage.

The progress of the game was not as smooth as the pre-match analysis. The German team encountered a strong counterattack from Algeria. The two teams drew in 10 minutes and had to play overtime.In the overtime stage, with the goals of Schurrle and Mesut, the German team was able to pass with a score of 2-1.

Won the game and scored a goal, but Mesut was not too happy.

As a Muslim, this World Cup coincides with Ramadan. Before the start of the World Cup, Mesut was asked about fasting during an interview.

Most of Algeria's opponents in this game are Muslin. It is said that these players just finished the 120-minute game on an empty stomach.After the game, Mesut was asked again whether he was fasting, which made him a little annoyed.Of course, this kind of question is probably also asked by other Muslim players in non-Islamic countries participating in the World Cup.

Regarding this issue, Mesut and Stephanie talked on the phone after the game.He even said that he should learn from Benzema and spend money to hire someone instead of Ramadan.Hearing his childish answer, Stephanie couldn't help laughing.

After the game against Algeria, Mesut and his German team met the French team of Benzema, whom he complained about. The two teams will compete for a place in the semi-finals.

For Germany, they are the most stable team in the World Series. They have entered the semi-finals in several consecutive tournaments. For this game, they are more confident than France.

As for the French team, they want to reshape the glory of the 98 World Cup outside of their home country after Zidane, so as to establish their status as a football powerhouse.

In this way, when the two teams meet, they must meet on a narrow road and the brave wins. However, compared to the tension between the fans, the players seem to be very harmonious.

There are also many players in the two teams who are teammates or former teammates of the same club. For example, Benzema has a very good relationship with Mesut.The two were very affectionate when they met. The coquettish Benzema even pulled the shy Mesut and kissed the forehead fiercely, which made Stephanie, who was watching the live TV broadcast, very angry.

Annoyed, Stephanie waited for the game to start, and quickly logged in to the shopping website, and quickly bought several lipsticks. The common feature of these lipsticks is that the color is very special red, which is particularly obvious as long as they are kissed.

Although before the game, Mesut and Benzema seemed to have unlimited love, but after the game started, they were their own masters and fought for that precious semi-final spot.

It was the German team that had the last laugh in this game, and they once again reached the semi-finals of the World Cup.

When the results of the second quarter game came out, the fans were all excited.Because in the second game, the host Brazil defeated Colombia led by Ronaldo, who had an eye-catching performance in this World Cup, 2-1. They will become the opponents of the German team in the semifinals.

This competition is the second time in the history of Brazil to host the World Cup. As a football powerhouse, you must know that it has been 12 years since they won the Hercules Cup last time.

Similarly, winning the championship at home is Brazil's undisguised ambition. In the history of the World Cup, only Uruguay, Italy, England, Germany, Argentina and France have won the championship as hosts.Brazil also wants to accomplish the feat.

Although former superstars such as 3R and Kaka the Son of God have left the Brazilian national team, under the leadership of Neymar in this competition, Brazil has overcome all obstacles to reach the semi-finals.With the right time and place, it seems that Brazil's chances of winning are better than Germany, which has fallen to the semi-final stage for three consecutive World Cups.

However, before the game against Germany, Brazil also had bad news. Their number one star Neymar will miss this game because of a hip injury, which brought a glimmer of doubt to Brazil's game prospects.

Compared with the Brazilians who were surprised by whether Neymar could play, the Germans were very calm.As in the past, they should eat and play before the game, and the media took photos of the German team traveling together on a cruise.

"It would be great if Lisa was here at this time." On the cruise ship, Thomas complained to Mesut, the blue sky, white clouds and sea cruise ship, such a good environment, but he can only be with a bunch of stinky men. Miss his dear wife.

Mesut gave him a blank look, he really wanted to throw the guy who was pestering him into the water.Ever since Thomas found out that he was with Stephanie, this guy pestered him to call him uncle, and always regarded himself as an elder.

Thinking of this, Mesut decisively stayed away from Thomas, and he finally couldn't bear to throw this guy into the water, so that he might not be able to explain to Stephanie.

Mesut wanted to laugh again at the thought of Stephanie.Because the Wimbledon game is over, Stephanie, as they said before the game, really played until the last day and won the women's singles championship.Today she will fly to Brazil, and then she will cheer him on in the Germany-Brazil game.

Thomas quickly stuck to it again: "Nini, is it right today? Lisa said that she has already planned how to take Nini to play in Brazil, and said that the wives are going to welcome new members. Do you think they will?" Going to a cabaret show, watching a hunk or something?"

Mesut was still thinking about Stephanie, but was interrupted by Thomas, but he was also attracted by Thomas' words.Based on his understanding of Stephanie, that girl has loved male sex for more than 20 years. I'm afraid Lisa will not want to see beautiful men, so she will also pull Lisa, and by the way, the entire German wives will be arrested. Pull into the water.

Thinking of the scene where Stephanie was surrounded by beautiful men of good shape and appearance, and the resentment caused by the teammates of the national team because their wives and girlfriends were attracted by male sex, Mesut felt that he should let Thomas shut down. The mouth is better.That scene was so beautiful, he really didn't want to see it!

When Mesut was worried about whether Stephanie would be attracted to male sex and cause tragedy, the plane that Stephanie said had already landed at the airport in Brazil.

Because of the World Cup, there were many reporters and paparazzi at various airports in Brazil during the World Cup.Stephanie was spotted as soon as she came out, and the German star Thomas Muller's wife Lisa came to pick her up. The reporters were even more sure that they were right. The girl in the baseball cap was this year's Wimbledon woman. single champion.I didn't see that the hat on her head is the one she has been wearing this year. Was it once criticized as having poor taste and a very rich hat?

When Stephanie saw the reporters surrounding her, she felt helpless and raised the brim of her hat, signaling the bodyguards around her to pay attention to the situation.

"Miss Muller, congratulations on winning the Wimbledon women's singles championship. Are you here to watch the World Cup in Brazil?"

"Of course, I am in Brazil at this time with only one purpose, and that is to watch the World Cup."

"Your home team is Germany?"

"Of course." Stephanie complained in her heart. Although she also has Italian blood, the current Italian national team really makes her face-controlling unable to cheer up.Instead of watching the national team's game, she might as well go to Rome to see her cousin Totti, who is getting older and more handsome. Well, the little boy of her cousin's family is also very cute.

"Will you join the wags this time? Cheer Thomas Müller as a niece?"

"Of course." Stephanie's answer was still very concise.

Lisa on the side has been smiling, and when she heard this question, she smiled even brighter. This time, Stephanie is a veritable member of the wives in the World Cup.

"So what do you want to say to your...uncle? And the members of the national team?" The reporter was a bit difficult when asking this question, after all, the age difference between the uncle and nephew of Muller is really too small , and he still couldn't connect the goddess Muller with the teaser Muller.

Stephanie glanced at the microphone extended by the reporter, then turned to the camera and said: "Come on Thomas, try to surpass your idol Gerd Müller! And please the national team! I hope to see you on the day of the final. Cup!"

After a pause, Stephanie continued:
