【385】The Red Storm in the Finals

After the game, the Chinese team was located at the 'Comfortable Lorenzo' hotel, and was regarded by local fans of Curtiba as a temporary leisure resort that they had to visit when they were free. At the same time, journalists from all over the country who asked to interview the Chinese national football team also came one after another, and the routine warm-up training was watched by nearly a hundred people. This is the case with the so-called becoming famous in one battle.

Next, the Chinese team, with sore waist and legs, finally recovered their physical strength after the overnight massage by the team doctor and traditional Chinese medicine massager. After the last game, the whole team was excited and didn't feel tired, but when they returned to the hotel, they felt exhausted by many people. Zhang Jie, who was hitting the back of the game, even though he lay down, his muscles were still trembling with convulsions!

On July 2, the Chinese team defeated the tangled Bolivia 2-0 with muscle soreness, and fought back against the whole game, and Li Chaogui won two goals alone.

The Bolivia team wanted to leave with a decent victory, and not be beaten by Uruguay. The seemingly powerful Chinese team was so powerful that it wanted to be a bitch and a archway. Only if there was no defeat would there be a ghost.

The Chinese team won all two games and advanced as the top spot in the group!

The final stage of the 1950 World Cup adopts a single round-robin group competition system, with four top names fighting each other, and after three games, the ranking is determined based on the ranking of points. If the points are the same, the winner is the winner of the match between the two sides. If the draw is the goal difference, the goal difference is the same. If the goal difference is the same, the number of goals is the goal difference is the extra game.

There was no surprise in Group A, Brazil qualifying. Yugoslavia, Switzerland and Mexico were eliminated.

England in Group B was still as defeated as history, losing to the United States and Spain, only defeating Chile. In the end, the team qualifying in this group was still as history was Spain.

Due to India's withdrawal from Group C, there were only three teams like Group D. However, the Swedish team, which originally qualified in history, lost to Italy inexplicably, and even to Paraguay, which led to the Italian team that qualifying in the end. History reflects a mysterious random surname in the football event.

Thanks to the unremitting praise from Brazilian News Agency reporter Santos, the Chinese team has become a mysterious "Oriental Dragon" and a potential dark horse to win the bid.

However, those old-fashioned teams still disdain for the Chinese team.

However, when leaders far away in China knew that the Chinese team defeated the original 1950 World Cup champion Uruguay with a huge score gap of 11:0, they immediately discovered the huge significance it contained... What does it mean that the Uruguay team, which won the championship in history, was defeated by the Chinese team by a large score???!!!

The Prime Minister sent a congratulatory message!

The National Sports Commission sent a congratulatory message!

The People's Liberation Army Military Sports Bureau sent a congratulatory message!

The China Sports Federation sent a congratulatory message!

Beidu Sports Federation sent a congratulatory message!

Puhai Sports Federation sent a congratulatory message!

Liaoning Sports Federation sent a congratulatory message!

………………………………………

According to the central government's requirements, all congratulatory messages only express the joy and happiness of the national football team's achievements, and do not put pressure on the national football team.

In the congratulatory message, the Prime Minister mentioned: "...The whole country has no regrets about your historical breakthrough, but after discussion by the central government, it is believed that you should be able to make some progress and have this potential... Don't be under pressure. This is an unexpected surprise at present. You have done a good job. The people of the motherland are very happy. We have prepared a celebration banquet for you to wait for you to return triumphantly, ready to successfully achieve the group qualifying and celebrate the historical breakthrough of Chinese football..."

Coach Li Fenglou's excited voice read the Prime Minister's congratulatory message to all the players word by word, and the whole team burst into thunderous applause. The Chinese team members were all very excited, and their faces, which were tanned and red by Lie Yu, were all red, but the head coach didn't say anything, so everyone was disciplined and didn't say anything.

Miao Qihui, a Chinese diplomat in Brazil who was crowded in the room, smiled: "Don't be restrained, the Prime Minister said in his congratulatory message. You must not put any pressure on the next step. The achievements you have made at this moment have exceeded the hope of the motherland. The Party Central Committee and the people of the whole country are seeing them. Next, we have one game, and as long as we fight, it will be extra credit!"

Miao Qihui has been busy recently in order to discuss with Brazil's political and political affairs to upgrade diplomatic relations between China and Brazil from the agency level to the ambassador level, and is also shouldering the important mission of introducing Brazil's three-leaf rubber tree. This time, she came here specially to convey congratulatory messages from the people of the motherland to cheer for the young men of the Chinese football team.

As soon as Ambassador Miao said this, the team members expressed their determination. Zhang Jie, who had muscle spasms before, almost burst into tears. He gritted his teeth and said, "Please don't worry about the motherland! Please don't worry about the Party Central Committee! As long as I can win glory for the country, I will be happy even if I run to death on the court."

"Ambassador Miao! Please tell the Prime Minister and the Party Central Committee that we athletes are just hoping to give the Chinese people a sigh of relief. We will fight hard in every game! Our whole team thinks so! For the motherland, we are fearless!" Chen Chengda, the core member of the organization on the field, said loudly.

"Well said! Comrades, please be sure to fight bravely for the motherland!" Ambassador Miao bowed deeply to everyone and said seriously. In Ambassador Miao's opinion, since the next three battles will be set, it is like fighting, and each battle will be fought to the end.

After Ambassador Miao left, the Chinese team held a long summary meeting.

The goal is simple and defeated the Spanish team.

………………………………………

In the sultry Brazilian summer, the World Cup finals have begun.

First, on July 9th, the host Brazil defeated the Italian team 8:2 with a cheering from 138,000 people at the Maracana Stadium.

In Rio de Janeiro, the largest Maracana Stadium in the world, which can accommodate 158,000 people, the cheers of 138,000 people were like stimulants, which made the Brazilian team completely crazy. Both sides of the game used offensive football. When they went back and forth, the Italian team could not resist the tsunami and the enthusiasm of the Samba people at the scene, and finally bowed down and surrendered.

Just three days ago, the Chinese team, who came to the port city of Sao Paulo, was arranged by the Brazilian Organizing Committee to stay in the "Gulf Plaza Hotel". The "Gulf Plaza Hotel" gave people a luxurious feeling compared to the "comfortable Lorenzo" hotel in Curtiban. However, there was a piece of turf like "comfortable Lorenzo" around the hotel. The Chinese team had to walk 20 minutes every day under the leadership of the team leader Huang Zhonghe and translator Yuan Biao, to a slightly farther turf arranged by the organizing committee for training.

On July 9th, when Brazil and Italy competed, the Chinese team also fought with Spain.

Before the game, Espanyol, who only knew that the Chinese team beat Uruguay, did not know the Chinese team's tactics. In their opinion, since Uruguay can defeat Bolivia 8-0, but lost to China 11-0, this shows that Uruguay is extremely unstable. While the Chinese team can defeat Uruguay, but only wins Bolivia, which was scored eight goals by Uruguay, means that the Chinese team is also an extremely unstable team.

Spanish coach Qiu Qiao, according to his own understanding, gave a speech to his players before the game:

"Don't worry about what the Chinese look like. They are about the same as those of the yellow-skinned and dark-haired Indians. You should focus on football on the court. The ability of the Chinese to score 11 goals in a game means that their attack power is still strong enough. You should be careful when defending and don't make them play too comfortable.

In addition, the newspaper said that they played a new type of defense-oriented 4-4-2 tactic. I guess that was the aside from reporters. They must play five forwards or six forwards, otherwise they would not be able to score so many goals. As for those reports boasting about the excellent defensive tactics of the Chinese, you don’t have to care. As long as you invest enough forwards, there is no goal in the world that cannot be broken! According to my guess, the Chinese should be like the Indian barbarians, with very good physical strength. After all, the newspaper also said that they ran all over the field..."

Next, Coach Qiu Qiao snorted coldly and said, "This kind of robbery is not a strange thing for professional football players. You have seen it in those amateur teams. In short, you should pay attention to making more crosses and high-lift transfers, exhaust their physical strength, pull out their gaps, and stuff the ball in. In addition, I read their players' information, and their height and weight are not outstanding. I look forward to you making more crosses so that the center can easily score a few headers."

………………………………………

The weather was stuffy at the Sao Paulo Public Stadium, and the cement steps of the stadium at 3:30 in the afternoon were already hot in the sun. Local fans of Sao Paulo, regardless of gender, age, seemed to be accustomed to this environment. They simply laid a newspaper on the rough steps and sat down solemnly.

But even so, the hot weather still makes the audience constantly sport the small fan they carry. This is a non-folding fan similar to a Chinese palm fan, but it is made very small, with only one handle, the fan surface is as big as an adult's palm, and is usually made into a small oblong shape to be stuffed into the pocket of a suit or shirt.

Translation Yuan Biao panted and placed ten military kettles next to the coach's seat, filled with salt and sugar water made of glucose, vitamins and salt, similar to later electrolyte sports drinks. In the past few games, the Chinese team has been drinking this to replenish their energy.

Coach Li Fenglou and his team members have not yet appeared.

Coach Li was in the locker room to cheer the players on the last time before the war.

"You must have confidence! The Spanish are wearing steel nail shoes, each shoe has nearly 300 grams, and each foot is two taels heavier than you! It means that each of them has a small sandbag tied to their feet."

When everyone heard this, everyone laughed proudly. The players unconsciously stepped on the pair of high-end sneakers under their feet, which was said to be specially developed by the Central 491 Engineering Team for the Chinese team to participate in the World Cup. Feeling the lightness and gripping under their feet, the Chinese team members were as comfortable as drinking a glass of ice water in this hot summer, and their bodies were filled with the heroic momentum and confidence that they would inevitably win.

This new football team of the new Republic has already gained confidence and domineering unknowingly...
