PS1: I continue to ask for recommendation votes here, saying that free books don’t require everyone to spend money, so it should be fine to give more recommendation votes? Thank you here~
PS2: Let me talk about the book friends group here. The group numbers are three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, and the verification answer is NTR Knight, well, that's it.
Just as Florentino and Zhuang Mingge were discussing how to launch this action, the Korean and Japanese World Cup also entered the semi-finals amid complaints from fans. The four national teams that stood out from the 32 participating teams were once again grouped in pairs and fought against each other!
The first thing to do was naturally caused huge controversy in this World Cup, which was praised by fans and media from various countries as the darkest host in history by South Korea and the traditional German team in international football!
The process of this game was basically the same as Johnson expected. Chesari's strict slap measures and impartial law enforcement attitude in the game caused considerable trouble to the Korean team, which was used to playing football under the referee's partiality. This was seen from just ten minutes after the opening, the Korean players were fouled by Chesari for consecutive reasons due to obvious pulling moves and intentional kicking behavior in the defense, and the German team was awarded several frontcourt set pieces.
After realizing that the referee would no longer favor them like the previous two games, the Korean players on the court had to restrain their movements as much as possible when defending, so as not to be caught by Chesari and give the Germans a lot of free kicks in the frontcourt. After all, Germany has never lacked good free kicks. From Mattus, Bremer, Basler to Tanat, Harman, and Barack now, the free kicks played by these guys lacked the pleasing curve, but they were deeply impressed with the true meaning of the saying that they made miracles. They were very hard when taking free kicks, and the accuracy of the shooting and speed of these guys was as short as possible, and they would occasionally make a world wave.
Therefore, after making sure that the referee would not favor them like the previous few games, the South Korean team, who was worried that the Germans would shoot their own goal with a powerful free kick, naturally did not dare to make a foul in the 30-meter area in front of the goal.
However, in this way, Korean players who have lost the referee's super trick become more passive on the defensive end. If it weren't for the Germans' hard bridges and hard horses, the lack of technical content and tactical changes in playing styles, and because of Chesari's strict harness standards, the Korean team's goal would have long been under the continuous long-range heavy artillery of the German tank.
As the pressure on the back line suddenly increased, and the physical advantage that he was proud of was gone in front of the Germans who were also good at running, these unfavorable factors forced Korean players to focus more energy on the defensive end, which naturally reduced their offensive investment. It is precisely because of this that the German team's defense line, which is equally obvious, was not completely beaten by the opponent with speed, and the "Golden Lion King" Kahn's performance in the game was as outstanding as ever, blocking all the few threatening shots that the South Korean team had, without giving the host a slight chance.
Let's look at the German team, with its better running ability and overall strength than their opponents, they completely gained the upper hand on the court. If it weren't for the two starting strikers, Klose and Neuville, who were not in a normal state, could not convert their teammates' passes into goals, and the heavy artillery group on the outside did not adjust the sight of the star, Barack and the others would have probably already made the Korean team's defense line with a lot of loopholes.
However, although the German team has the upper hand on the court, the most critical goal has not come yet. Faced with a situation where they could not be defeated for a long time, they were inevitably a little impatient and were even seized by the Korean team to fight twice and counterattack twice. If Metzeld and Flins had not reacted quickly enough and returned to defense in time and destroyed these two counterattacks with a yellow card, maybe Germany, which had the advantage in the scene, would have experienced the feeling of a gutter capsized.
"Yellow card! Chesari showed Flins a yellow card!" After seeing Flins interrupting the counterattack of the South Korean team with a tactical foul and receiving a yellow card, the voice of the Sky TV commentator who was responsible for broadcasting the game was full of regret and regret. "Since Flins had already received a yellow card against the United States, he would have been forced to suspend the game in the next game with two yellow cards! This means that if the German team defeated South Korea today, he would miss the World Cup final and could only watch the game as an audience!"
It can be said that Flins paid a heavy price to protect his goal and team's interests... After all, if it were not forcibly, which player would be willing to bear a yellow card at the cost of missing the World Cup final?
"Sorry, Torsten, if I could have taken a step faster just now, you wouldn't have received this yellow card." Looking at Flins, who was feeling a little depressed, Barack ran to the friend with a look of guilt and said with a remorse. During the training period of the national team and the deepening of tacit understanding, these two players, who were originally competitors, became friends who could talk about everything.
"It's okay, Michael (Barak). If I don't do this, this yellow card will probably fall on you, right? Don't forget that you are carrying a yellow card on your back now." Flins, who suppressed his emotions, patted Barak's shoulder calmly and said with a forced smile, "What's more, the current German team cannot be without you and Oliver. Only you are there, we can fight after entering the finals. And I can't do this. Although we have similar characteristics, I am still much worse than you in terms of real skills. So, I won't regret the foul just now!"
"Brother, I promise you that we will definitely reach the final this time and bring the championship trophy back to Germany!" After hearing Flins' explanation, Barack was silent for a long time and said firmly, "I will do it in Korea in front of you or the opponent in the next final!"
Flins' sacrifice must not be wasted! With this belief, in the following time, Barack performed more and more fiercely on the court, showing world-class standards on both sides of the offense and defense. He ran tirelessly, and his outstanding sense of plugging in and viewing the overall situation made the managers who sat in front of the TV and watched the game drool all over the floor.
In the 75th minute of the game, the goal that many German fans had been looking forward to finally came late. Barack received a cross from Neuville 12 meters in front of the goal and pushed the ball with his right foot. After Li Yun blocked it with his legs, the ball rolled to Barack's feet. The German midfielder core swung his left foot and volleyed the ball without hesitation, sending the ball into the lower right corner of the goal!
