Midfielder Ruler

Brazil eliminated Chile by penalty shootout and became the first team to advance to the quarter-finals of the World Cup. Colombia then defeated Uruguay with a two-for-two by Hames Rodriguez and became the second team to advance to the quarter-finals national team.

The 1/8 final of the Chinese team and Costa Rica is the fourth match. The match time is at 6 pm local time in Brazil, which is 4 am Beijing time.

Prior to this, the Netherlands and Mexico will play the third World Cup 1/8 finals.

Due to the sufficient time, Tang Zheng had a mobile phone to watch the 1/8 final at the Castelao Stadium in Fortaleza. This game was rendered by the media as the strongest spear and shield battle.

Tang Zheng and his national teammates want to know who wins and who loses, because once the Chinese team can beat Costa Rica, the opponent they face will be the winner between the Netherlands and Mexico.

With four hours left before the game, the Chinese team began to replenish various nutrients under the leadership of the nutrition sportsman, and made final preparations for the 1/8 final four hours later. Tang Zheng was therefore able to hold the game mobile phone Watch the live broadcast.

The Netherlands is the team that scored the most goals in the group stage. They scored ten goals, while Mexico, Costa Rica and Belgium tied for the team with the fewest goals in the group. Only one goal was lost in three games, so the strongest spear and shield game attracted Countless fans' eyes.

But after the game started, there was a big discrepancy with many media pre-game speculations. The Dutch team with the most goals in the group stage was passively beaten. Instead, Mexico with the fewest goals in the group stage took advantage of the characteristics of the small clever in the front field to force the Netherlands Goalkeeper Silesson made a continuous save.

It wasn't until the eighth minute of the match that the Dutch team won the first shot from the right by Robben.

As the game progressed slowly, the two sides refocused their attention on their respective defenses. After all, the game is more defensive than offensive.

The offense should also be established on the premise that the defense does not cause problems, otherwise it is easy to tie hands.

But until the end of the first half of the game, the two sides did not break through the other city and ended the first half with 0: 0.

Before the start of the second half of the game, all members of the Chinese team need to return to the room for a rest. Tang Zheng has no time to watch the game live, but he believes that the Dutch team should be able to win the final game.

as predicted!

Although Mexico broke the deadlock in the second half of the game in three minutes, the score also advanced to the end of the game.

However, the Netherlands team is a world-class team after all, most of the players are world-class stars, full of toughness.

In the eighty-eighth minute, Robben took the right corner from the left foot, Huntelaar nodded the ball and ferryed, Sneijder pulled the foot from the edge of the penalty area, broke Ochoa's ten fingers, equalized the score!

In the second minute of stoppage time, there was a dispute in the game.

Robben broke into the penalty area on the right, he was tripped to the ground by Mexican captain Max, when the referee hesitated when Max ’s tripping action was not obvious, then whistle for a penalty and gave Max a Yellow card.

The striker, Huntelaar, who came off the bench in the second half, shot the ball into the lower left corner to overtake the score!

The final score of the game is also the Dutch team beat Mexico 2-1, becoming the third team to advance to the quarterfinals.

As soon as the game at Castelao Stadium ended, the Chinese team drove to the Pernambuco Arena by bus provided by the hotel.

It is worth mentioning that many Chinese fans who did not have tickets to enter the bus before the bus came to the Chinese team to stay in the hotel, cheering for the team in advance to cheer.

Looking at the lovely fans holding up banners, slogans and flags, the Chinese players who boarded the bus all felt a sense of touch from the depths of their hearts.

In order to repay these lovely fans, the 1/8 final in the Pernambuco Arena must be won tonight!

Otherwise ... how to repay these lovely fans?

※※※

At about 2:15 a.m. Beijing time, Chinese fans sitting in front of a TV or computer can see the Chinese team slowly leaving the hotel on the bus to the Pernambuco Arena.

Even if this point has entered the deep sleep time of Chinese fans, but many fans still sit in front of the TV or computer, waiting for the game to start.

CC5 is the exclusive broadcaster of the World Cup in mainland China, so domestic fans can only watch the game through CC5.

But many of the tidbits, preparations and preparations before the game are not in the ranks, so fans can see the situation of the Chinese team through many channels.

For example: the progress of the itinerary before the start of the 1/8 final between the Chinese team and Costa Rica.

Compared with traditional live TV, online viewing is more convenient after all.

About one hour and twenty minutes before the start of the game, the Chinese team took the bus to the Pernambuco Arena. The players sitting in the bus could clearly hear the clear loud voice from outside the bus.

"Chinese team cheer!"

"The Chinese team will win !!"

"Tang Zheng come on! Chinese team come on!"

"Lv Liang Niu. Cu, Tang Zheng Niu. Cu, we are going to the quarterfinals !!"

...

Various sounds are transmitted to the bus through the glass windows.

Tang Zheng took off his headphones and watched the Chinese fans surrounded by the stadium security staff. He naturally smiled and raised his right arm from time to time to pay tribute to these lovely Chinese fans.

The reason why the Chinese team can stand out from the group stage, in addition to its own strength and luck, the fans' credit is also very large.

Many times players are prone to lack of knowledge, and at this time, if there are fans who spare no effort to cheer and cheer, the slightly **** players will wake up like a dream and pay the last effort for the cute fans!

Other Chinese players have also learned something and waved towards the fans.

Lippi led Guangzhou Evergrande to the first ever AFC Champions League in the history of the Chinese Super League team in the 2013 season. The position in the minds of Chinese fans is already very high. Now he leads the Chinese men's football team to the World Cup Sixteen, so he came to Bo Chinese fans in the Arena of South Bugoa cheered the coach Lippi with great cheers, thanking him for the changes he brought to Chinese football.

...

"Aoao--"

When Chinese players came to the ‘familiar’ Pernambuco Arena, a huge deafening cheer suddenly sounded above the stadium.

Tang Zheng and other teammates all looked up subconsciously. The stadium, which can accommodate 46,000 fans, has filled nearly 80% of the fans. Looking at it, most of the positions are occupied by enthusiastic Chinese fans.

It has to be said that as the Chinese team enters the round of 16 of the World Cup, more and more Chinese people choose to come to the scene to watch the Chinese team's game.

Of course, this has something to do with the appeal of the Chinese team's top star Tang Zheng, but the Chinese team has a lot of appeal, after all ... the Chinese team represents the highest level of Chinese football.

In any case, as a Chinese, it is natural to cheer and cheer for the Chinese team.

And the opponent of Costa Rica in the 1/8 final is not strong, which means that the Chinese team is likely to beat the opponent and go further!

Even if the team behind the promotion is the uncrowned king of the Netherlands, Chinese fans believe that the Chinese team can be black! !

In the end, the atmosphere created by Chinese fans in the Arena of Pernambuco was so fanatical that many Costa Rican players who came to the stadium to warm up felt uneasy.

Because the boos made by Chinese fans are really big!

The goalkeeper Navas frowned, not because he was worried about the atmosphere at the scene, but because he saw the tenth Tang Zheng of the Chinese team full of worries.

Before the game, coach Pinto didn't need any special instructions, and the goalkeeper Navas, who played for La Liga in La Liga, personally experienced the sharpness of Tang Zheng, so he was very worried before the game started.

Still the captain Ruiz had meticulous observation, he noticed that the goalkeeper Navas was a little distracted, so he slapped his right hand to Navas' right shoulder and smiled: "Don't care too much about that person's ability."

Ruiz continued in the direction of Tang Zheng, with a firm tone: "You just have to remember how strong you are! Don't forget! You were the goalkeeper with the most zero games in La Liga last season! More than me, we all believe You can keep your goal! "

"Captain?" Navas turned his head to look at Captain Ruiz's confident eyes, his eyes gradually became firmer, his head was raised, and he automatically ignored the huge boos that came across his face, and his voice became clanging: "Relax Teammates! You and Joel in front, behind? There is me !!! "

"This is the invincible Kellore I know!" Captain Ruiz nodded with satisfaction, then stretched his right hand to hold Navas' right hand out: "Come on !!"

"Come on !!"

"Costa Rica is one of the three teams with the fewest goals conceded in this World Cup group stage, and it also stands out in the death group, winning Uruguay and Italy in a row, qualifying for a round of group advance, becoming the biggest dark horse of this World Cup, super strong The defensive ability is really extraordinary! "

He Wei, the central commentator of the live commentary of the Pernambuco State Arena, looked at the broadcast and frowned.

The guest palace Lei nodded and said: "Costa Rica can stand out from the death group, and even eliminated Italy and England. In addition to the luck component, the ability is also very important. In the three rounds of the group stage, only one goal was lost. I think in addition to the extraordinary defensive ability, the goalkeeper accepts Gas can't be ignored either. "

Previously, the Chinese team and Costa Rica had a record of five encounters, one win, two draws and two losses.

The most recent confrontation was three years ago when the Chinese team drew 2-2 against Costa Rica, but that game had little reference because the head coach of the Chinese team was still Gao Hongbo.

In the history of the World Cup, the two teams had a record of confrontation. They defeated the Chinese team 2-0 in Gwangju, South Korea, Costa Rica 12 years ago.

Of course, this game also has no meaning and can only be used as a reference.

The game has started for ten minutes. The Chinese team controls the rhythm of the game with strong midfield control. However, Costa Rica has clearly targeted deployment before the game. As a defensive midfielder of the Chinese team, Tang Zheng pays attention to the defensive end and has an offensive responsibility. Strong.

However, Costa Rica's game tactics are highly targeted and highly concerned about Tang Zheng. To allow Tang Zheng to pass and return, it is not allowed to pass forward, that is to say, Tang Zheng's forward pass is completely cut off.

The captain Zheng Zhi has a good scheduling ability and is among the top in Asia, but he is older and the Costa Rican players are very resolute in their high-level oppression. Zheng Zhi dare not pass forward even if he gets the football.

You can only choose to move forward, or pass back.

The big foot forward is easy to cause the football control rights to change, and Zheng Zhi, who has a strong reading ability, chooses to pass back more.

Feng Xiaoting suspended two yellow cards, and partner Li Xuepeng's Ren Hang was very nervous in handling the ball. Instead of passing the ball to the goalkeeper Yan Junling who was ready to catch the ball, he moved forward with big feet, so the Chinese team's offensive organization seemed very messy.

For this situation, Tang Zheng is also helpless.

When the game reaches the 1/8 final stage, teammates will have different levels of tension, even if the performance before the game is good, once the game starts, it will be another scene.

Head coach Lippi is helpless in the coaching area of ​​the visiting team because he can do little as a head coach.

Five minutes into the game, Costa Rica launched two threatening attacks when the Chinese team could not organize the attack.

Fortunately, Tang Zheng and goalkeeper Yan Junling maintained a very good state, and they tried to protect the goal.

With Tang Zheng appearing again at the key position to complete a very well-placed shovel to break the ball out of the sideline, the live guide gave Tang Zheng a close-up shot pushed to the face, British Sky commentator Andy Gray solemnly said: "Costa Rica, with its May 4th formation, is destined to defend and fight back. The Chinese team's offense seems to be unable to organize, and the defensive end has been tested continuously ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ If this situation continues, I think it is very much It may cause a goal drop, after all ... "

The speech was not over, commentary guest Martin Taylor said: "After all, Tang is not a panacea. The two goals conceded in the third round of the Chinese team were formed by Colombia ’s offensive deliberately bypassing Tang. I think that as the game goes on, Costa Rica ’s Offense will also find a better way. Costa Rica, which can stand out from the dead group, is not a mediocre! "

Interestingly, Costa Rican head coach Pinto is in sharp contrast to Lippi. He sits in front of the coach seat, tilting his legs and looks more like a fan without a position.

Because Costa Rica entered the round of 16 and tied the Italian World Cup record 24 years ago, it is good to be able to defeat the Chinese team and enter the quarterfinals to create a new record. If there is no way to win the game and stop the round of 16, there is no way.

The overall strength of the Chinese team may not be much better than Costa Rica, but the Chinese team has world-class superstars such as Tang Zheng. Among the team, Hao Junmin, Lu Liang and Yan Junling are the main players of the Bundesliga giants and their offensive ability is outstanding.

Perhaps it was the good mentality of coach Pinto that was successfully instilled in the players, and the players did not have any ideological burdens in this game, and played lightly, so they played unexpected combat power.

The game lapsed in seconds, and Tang Zheng became more and more headache.

The offensive teammates in the frontcourt mean getting better, that is, the defensive teammates in the backcourt frequently make mistakes.

Feng Xiaoting is the main center of the iron defender and the core of the defense. However, this game has accumulated a yellow card suspension, resulting in insufficient understanding of the defense.

Tang Zheng, with his strong sense of responsibility, realized that the defense line was full of problems, and the pressure on the offensive was still insufficient.

As a result, the Chinese team's offense gave people a feeling of disconnection between front and back, or in other words, it could not be effectively used.
