Unlike the rules of the Champions League, there is no draw in the World Cup knockout round, and the schedule of each round was determined half a year ago.

As the first place in Group F, the Chinese team's opponent in the quarterfinals is of course the second place in Group E and the Swiss team.

Switzerland, with a population of 8 million, is not a traditional strong team, but this does not prevent them from being ranked first in FIFA rankings for a long time.

In June 2018, they were the sixth in the world, and the five teams ahead of them were:

Germany, Brazil, Belgium, Portugal, and Argentina.

Although being able to rank fourth in the European division with many strong players does not fully reflect their strength, it can at least show that Switzerland has performed extremely well in the World Cup and warm-up matches in the past one or two years.

Of course, even so, it's nothing, because the strongest opponents they encountered in the qualifiers were just Portugal. The other four were Hungary, which had already weakened, and the absolute bottom of the Faroe Islands, Latvia, and Andorra. If these three opponents were handed over to Long Shute, they would probably be the result of seven-star beads and eight swords flying together...

For China, this is definitely a good sign.

How good is it?

Even if Switzerland ranks sixth in the world,...even if the Chinese team does not have Long Shute and the current lineup, they may feel that they can play 55 with the opponent...

Anyway, in the subconscious of most fans, Switzerland is just a small country and has no name in the domestic league. How powerful can such a national team be?

On July 3, St. Petersburg Stadium.

The city of St. Petersburg, located in northwest Russia, is obviously a city of high latitude. Even when it is midsummer, its average daily temperature does not exceed 20 degrees. In the afternoon, the sun sets west, and the weather around 15 degrees is extremely suitable for playing football.

For domestic fans, the kick-off at 10 pm is obviously quite friendly. Most people can accept the regular game time of 45+15+45 minutes. Even if they play for half an hour, it will only be just past 12 o'clock, and it will hardly affect the normal life of the next day.

Although Switzerland is a "weak team", this does not affect the number of viewers gathered in front of the TV to watch the game.

In cities, homes, factories, bars, hotels, and school dormitories, more than 200 million people watched this "highest and weak" showdown at the same time!

A sentence from commentator He Wei explains it all:

"Four years ago, although the Chinese team entered the knockout stage, due to the lack of the special nature of the core soul, the Chinese team, which was in chaos, almost did nothing in that knockout stage.

We will not blindly deify a person, but it is undeniable that Long Shute, in a sense, represents this national team. As long as he stands on the court, we will have the backbone and spirit!”

-

Just like most people think, Switzerland is not a traditional football powerhouse, and there is only Basel, a club that can be seen in the domestic league, but this does not mean that their players are unknown.

Lichsteiner, Zachar, Juru, Dzemayili, Inle, and Behrami are all stars who can stand alone in European football. At least... they are indeed more famous than the first-time Chinese players.

But...they met the owner of the city today!

“HERO CHEN!”

“GOOOOOOAL!”

Although Russia has been eliminated from the World Cup, Russian fans still fill the stadium's stands.

When Chen Yingxiong scored in the 17th minute of the game, a roar of roar broke out in the entire court!

There is even a huge poster flying in the main stands.

Long Shute shook his head slightly:

"MD, what is the technical content of heading? The man I had before was much more violent than his shot after the ball scored!"

Chen Yingxiong didn't hear his captain's sorrow. He opened his arms and showed his strong tendon flesh to the local fans in the main stands.

There is a team in St. Petersburg called Zenit, which is the club where Chen Yingxiong plays!

At least 80% of the spectators who flocked to the stadium today are his supporters!

Even the world's number one Dragon Ball King, don't want to steal his popularity here!

-

"Drip!Drip!"

One sharp whistle after another cut through the noisy sky.

The atmosphere on the court suddenly became tense.

"You want to die?!"

Chen Yingxiong was pinching the neck of the Swiss back lowman Zhaka, and his saliva was completely sprayed on the other party's face.

Although Zhaka wanted to get angry, his physique was almost like a child who had not grown up in front of Chen Yingxiong, who was as strong as a bear...

Not far behind them, Qin Xiong was lying on the turf in pain, and the socks on the ankles had even been completely cut!

"Zhaka's foul! It's so brutal! If Qin Xiong hadn't reacted quickly, his left foot would have been tackled by the opponent now!"

He Wei frowned.

Zhang Lu sighed:

"When playing for Arsenal, Zachar was a famous red card player in the Premier League. Now that he has come to the World Cup, he still has no restraint..."

-

"Calm down!"

Long Shute pushed away Chen Yingxiong, who was several inches taller than himself.

Even if Zacha commits a malicious foul, it is obviously impossible for people to accept it if you just pinch the other person's neck.

Rizzoli, the referee from Italy, strode forward, first gave Zaka, who was injured first, a yellow card, and then showed the excited Chen Yingxiong.

Because Chen Yingxiong played at home, Rizzoli was booed by fans all over the court because of this penalty...

"Just the beginning of the first half, the Swiss team suffered another heavy blow! Their midfielder Zachar was directly sent off by the referee for a red card because of an unsatisfactory flying tackle from behind! The Swiss team must face the unfavorable situation of one less player in more than 40 minutes! And now they... are already behind five goals!"

He Wei is not worried about the situation on the court, he is even more worried about the player's injuries:

"Qin Xiong was obviously very injured. He received treatment for two minutes on the sidelines, but he still couldn't continue the game. He could only be replaced by Qin Gude..."

-

The first thing Qin Gude did when he entered the court was to find the captain who was standing in front of the penalty area to take the free kick:

"Brother Long, those assistant coaches asked me to ask you... the overall situation has been decided. Can you get off the court and take a break?"

Long Shu Te raised his eyebrows:

"This is definitely not what they said, right? Which guy said it?"

Qin Gude smiled a little awkwardly.

Long Shute snorted and waved his hand at him.

He stood behind the football side and had no distance to run.

I didn't see how he swung his right leg and was as easy as just drinking water. He pulled the ball into the blind spot above the goal with one kick!

6-0!

-

In the eighth-finals between the Chinese team and the Swiss team, the most active players are undoubtedly the three players:

Chinese captain Long Shute staged five blessings, and Chen Yingxiong, who played at home, also scored three goals with his head and feet.

The Swiss team's Shaqiri scored an unexpected scorpion swing!

Chu Jiang, who was in front of the door, didn't even react!

Because Shaqili's shooting location was far outside the penalty area, he was killed by Xiang Tao at that time and had no chance to turn around. No matter how you look at that shot, it was a flaw!

Although he was called "Swiss Messi" when he debuted, Shaqiri, who often scored shocking shots, was more like the Swedish god Taibrahimovic!

However, this wonderful goal only made the Swiss team look a little better.

Because the final result of this game was a bloody 12-1!

In addition to Long Shute, Chen Yingxiong, Zhang Jun, Chu Zhongtian, Rongguang and Qin Gude each completed the icing on the cake.
Chapter completed!
