"We, should we consider Senegal or Sweden?"

In Miyagi, the Chinese team's training is still very relaxed. When we talked about the quarterfinals, we didn't seem to take the Japanese team seriously.

The defeated players are. From the national youth team to the national team, the Japanese team has lost four games in a row. If you do another game, everyone still has no pressure. In other words, the Chinese team has encountered the most opponents in recent years, the first is South Korea, and then Japan, who have played five games in the Korean team and four games in the Japanese team.

In Asia, the Chinese team is the number one strong team and there is no pressure on other opponents.

Even if you stand on the stage of the world, the Chinese team may not be bullied by other teams. When Zheng Zhi is on the court, he will fight everyone, but without Zheng Zhi, then...

"Li Weifeng, you think too far." Fan Zhiyi is not as fluent as Li Weifeng. The Liverpool defender has experienced much more games than Li Weifeng. "In the knockout stage, everything is possible. Have you ever thought that the Korean team can beat Portugal?"

"I don't believe that the Japanese team can play their home advantage to the fullest. Home advantage is the biggest reliance of the Japanese team. If the referee takes care of Japan like he takes care of South Korea, we will be in trouble."

"The General is right. We have to be careful of the referee in the game in Japan." Zheng Zhi also agreed with what Fan Zhiyi said.

"Look at it, South Korea fights Italy, probably Italy is in trouble."

"What do you mean? We may be blown by a penalty kick in the game?" Li Weifeng finally had more thoughts, "The referee won't be so fucked, right? Do you dare to blow it openly?"

"What is blowing randomly? Some people who can be blown or not, he will blow. What can you do? As long as you want to mess with you, you will have plenty of opportunities to mess with you." Fan Zhiyi even combined the domestic referees, "Look at A, A, A always has inexplicable games? A referee is not scolded as a dog? But can the result be changed if he scolds the referee again? According to me, the Portugal game was a naked black whistle."

"I'm so masturbation, that's what we meant we could basically not run away and we were going to be humble?" Li Yin couldn't help but complain. He rarely swears, but after everyone talked about it, he felt that it was like that.

"Will we behave a little bigger in the penalty area, not that dangerous?" Sun Jihai also raised his ears and expressed his opinion. It is normal for him to play football in the Premier League to be more big. He hates games that are timid the most.

Ou Chu was kind-hearted and kind, "Not that, this is the World Cup, billions of fans are watching. If you really want to brag, what will the whole world think?"

"hehe……"

Seeing everyone being so excited, Zheng Zhi stood up and said, "Everyone calm down. I think it is normal for a controversy in the game. It is normal to favor the Japanese team. They are the hosts, so we must keep our minds flat and play the game seriously. During the game, everyone should also focus on playing football instead of the movements in their hands. Don't think about making small moves to anyone. If we do our best, we will naturally not be afraid of others making bad things."

"With 90 minutes, we kept our focus and played the game well. I firmly believe that it would be no problem for us to win the Japanese team!"

It seemed that Zheng Zhi said something to everyone's hearts and nodded seriously.

But Zheng Zhi suddenly gritted his teeth and said:

"but!"

"Damn it, if we are really obscene by the referee, we will be obscene to the quarterfinals! I would like to ask everyone one thing - after the game, when I rush to beat the referee, don't stop me, and don't add in, just let me beat him by myself!"

"Are you okay?"

"Ah?!" After hearing Zheng Zhi say this, everyone almost spoke in unison and looked at him in surprise.

"You are so cruel!"

"Zheng Zhi, can I get this kind of thing? If you do it, the impact will be too great. Let me get this kind of thing!" Li Weifeng rubbed his arms.

"Don't, I can't stand this kind of thing, I should come!" The old captain Fan Zhiyi was also full of righteous indignation, as if this had happened.

"Dear brothers, I'm so good at fighting. Why don't you let me do it? If this happens, I, Xu Yunlong, will be the first to go!" The young general Xu Yunlong also jumped out.

When it comes to fighting, it seems that everyone is a talented person?

"Haha, I just said, if, why are you all so excited? I have to do this." Zheng Zhi laughed. Although it was a very ridiculous thing, he could feel that the team was united in an unprecedented way, and they all fought with a innocent heart.

With such a Chinese team, he feels ten thousand hearts in his heart and defeats the Japanese team? There is no problem!

...

On the afternoon of the 15th, it was the first to usher in the first quarterfinals, Germany vs. Paraguay.

The German team failed to reach the quarterfinals in the past fifty years, which was in 1978. Paraguay never reached the quarterfinals in the history of World Cup competition. This time, the Germans once again shattered their dream of entering the quarterfinals. In this game, the German team, which had an absolute advantage in height and physical fitness, once again exposed their weakness of rough technical skills. They did not pose too many effective threats to Paraguay in the whole game. Paraguay team failed to show the delicate technical skills and superb footwork characteristics of the South American team in their first encounter with the German team.

For most of the time of the game, both sides only spent the game back and forth, and the 90 minutes were spent in a dull manner. Just when people thought that both sides would play overtime, in the 88th minute, the German team used a very effective pass to cooperate with Neuville to score an unexpected goal, which made the German team advance to the quarterfinals.

However, Germany was not favored by the media and was criticized too much after the game.

Later, the second quarterfinals were played at Niigata Swan Stadium. England defeated Denmark 3-0 and became the second team to reach the quarterfinals. Irving scored his first goal in this cup, while Beckham assisted Ferdinand and Husky to score. Denmark failed to score for the first time in their last 13 World Cup games.

England demonstrated the temperament of a champion and is expected to launch another attack on the champion after 1966.

On the 16th, the third quarterfinals game was the most concerned by Chinese fans, because the winner of this game will meet the winner of the Japanese vs. Chinese team in the quarterfinals.

Senegal finally scored 1:1 with Sweden within 90 minutes, and both sides had to enter overtime. In the 104th minute, Senegal's team Chav dribbled the ball horizontally, and suddenly passed the ball with his heel to Kamala who was inserted. Kamala dribbled past two Swedish defenders near the penalty area arc, and shot a shot on the inside of the left post of Sweden's team to bounce into the net. Swedish goalkeeper Heidman had no choice. In the end, Senegal's golden ball won and eliminated Sweden's team and became the biggest "dark horse" in this cup to enter the quarterfinals.

Then the fourth game of the World Cup quarterfinals 16 knockout started at the Suwon World Cup Stadium. Spain and Ireland tied 1:1 in the 90-minute civil war. Forward Morientes headed the ball to break the net shortly after the start of the game. Casillas saved Hart's penalty in the second half, but the tenacious Ireland tied with Keane in the 89th minute. Neither side made any achievements in overtime and had to enter the penalty shootout. Casillas once again saved 2 penalty kicks, and Spain won 3:2. The total score was 4:3 to advance to the quarterfinals!

On the 17th, the fifth World Cup round of 16 knockout match kicked off at the All-State World Cup Stadium. The United States defeated Mexico 2-0. McBride and Donovan scored in two lightning counterattacks.

18th.

Finally it was the Chinese team's turn to play.

After entering the top 16, the host Japanese team's ambition began to expand, determined to take it to the next level and advance to the semi-finals.

Japanese midfielder Akishima Akihito told Japanese media early in the morning: "The team is seriously considering how to enter the semi-finals. If it can achieve its wish, it will be an incredible milestone in Japanese football. To enter the semi-finals, the Japanese team must first defeat the Chinese team and then face the popular Senegal team. Looking at the progress made by the Japanese team, this goal is not unrealistic."

The Japanese team made the first attempt to enter the World Cup in 1998 and lost all three group matches, but four years later, they qualified as the first in the group. Their performance was also very eye-catching, with outstanding personal skills and overall playing style, which made people admire them. In addition, as the host, the Japanese team enjoyed a huge home court advantage. But what the Japanese team needs now is to pass the first level of the Chinese team.

I don’t know what brought Ming Shenzhi and such great confidence. Is this guy’s head clamped over the door? After ignoring the Chinese team, this guy talked about Selgar.

"Senegal is a hurdle that is not easy to overcome. Although this new African army is a newcomer in the World Cup, they have defeated the defending French team, the South American powerhouse Uruguay team, and defeated the Viking Sweden again the day before yesterday, and rushed to the quarterfinals historic 8."

"The flexibility of Senegalese players' physical flexibility and coordination of movements, as well as the amazing ball-handling and extraordinary skills, will give us a headache. However, Senegal is not impeccable. They pay too much attention to personal improvisation and not to overall combat, which is exactly our strength. Under the guidance of head coach Trussier, we pay more attention to the overall team type and have strong strength in the midfield. In a friendly match last October, we lost to Senegal 0:2, but at that time, our two midfielders, Hidesu Nakada and Shinji Ono, did not participate. We currently have a complete lineup, high morale, and home advantage, so it is not impossible to defeat Senegal."

Midfielder Junichi Inamoto also said: "To be honest, I don't know who can be stronger than us. Although the Chinese team performed well against Brazil and Costa Rica, we played at home, and this time it's time for us to win!"

"We have no injuries or banned players now. We are not tired, and our confidence is increasing day by day. At the same time, the fans are also an important part of our team. They wear blue uniforms and are the strong backing of the team. I think we can continue to win."

Japanese coach Trussier also expressed his views on the game in the face of the media. Trussier said: "I am an ambitious person. If we are only satisfied with entering the top 16, then today is just a festival. But obviously we need to continue fighting, we will not be conservative, and we will launch continuous attacks on our opponents. Although we know that the Chinese team is also a team with good skills and strong skills."

Trussie did not mention the four consecutive defeats of the Chinese team. He also expressed his hope that the players would learn from the Irish team its fighting spirit and never give up.

"The spirit of the Irish team fighting to the last second taught us a lesson. If we want to go further in the World Cup, we must learn this spirit."

"If the players are satisfied with entering the second stage, then we will be in trouble. Today we will face a new test, and to win, we must inject new vitality into the players. Today's game is of historical significance to both of our teams. We must pay more attention to defense. There are many players who can score goals in the Chinese team."

"Our home advantage will be good for us. I think both teams have half the chance of winning. Although it is difficult for the Chinese team to deal with, it is at least stronger than meeting Spain or Brazil."

"If I talk about this before the game, I would say that the Japanese team would not win the World Cup. But the strong teams were eliminated one after another, so the situation changed very quickly, and now the Japanese team is not without a chance."

"We need to show the same motivation in the group stage. I don't want this game to be the last game I led the Japanese team."

Ziko, a former Brazilian international who is known as "Bai Baili", also said, "I think Japan is very likely to defeat the Chinese team in tomorrow's game and become the first Asian team to reach the quarterfinals in World Cup history. If it performs well, Japan may even reach the semi-finals."

Jike made the above statement in an interview with Japan's Sports Daily. In the last few years of his career, Jike brought advanced football skills and coaching experience to Japan and made great contributions to the creation of the Japanese J League. He has a deep understanding of Japanese football. Jike believes that there are many excellent players like Hidesu Nakada and Junichi Inamo in this Japanese team. It is precisely because of them that the current Japanese team is full of passion and vitality.

Jiko is very optimistic about the future of the Japanese team. He said: "From the performance of the Japanese team in the group stage, I think the dream of Japan entering the semi-finals is no longer out of reach. If it is not expected, the Japanese team will defeat the Chinese team and meet Senegal in the quarterfinals. These are two teams with very close technical skills, and anyone can reach the semi-finals."

...

Perhaps only one person kept a low profile, that person was Hideho Nakada who played football in Serie A.

The Japanese No. 1 star remains low-key: "What we need most now is to maintain a modest mindset as we did in the group stage, which will help us go further."

When talking about his opponents from the Chinese team, he said, "We should respect the Chinese team, and their strength is very strong. Until now, many domestic fans believe that we can enter the quarter-finals, and we also hope to do this. However, we must not start to be complacent just because we have achieved better results in the group stage. We must still put ourselves in the position of a weak team. To be honest, it is not the time to celebrate."

"Actually, we and the Chinese team can be said to be new players in the World Cup, but there are many players on the other side who play football in high-level European leagues, and they may have more experience in major competitions than us. In addition, they are also very strong and often perform well in the game. For example, in the game against Brazil, they can actually tie the opponent. I think we should try our best to play to our overall cooperation advantages when playing against them. In addition, the Chinese team seems to be more impatient about the players' emotions on the court? This should also be a factor that we can use."

mad!

The Japanese team is too crazy!

In addition to Hideho Nakada.

He let him be crazy, and Horton and Zheng Zhi only talked about the referees at the press conference.

"Colina is one of the best referees in the world. I am very happy that he can enforce the law. I believe he can enforce the law fairly in the game and will not have any favoritism to the host."

As soon as Holden opened his mouth, he talked about the referee of the game.

Zheng Zhi also echoed: "Yes, Kolina is exactly the referee we need. Even if the Japanese team plays at home, he will not favor the Japanese in the game."

As for the Japanese team?

Zheng Zhi just said coldly, "We have won four consecutive victories against the Japanese team, so we should naturally win five consecutive victories today!"
Chapter completed!
