567【The Chinese team scored a goal?】
June 8, China vs Brazil.
Chen Tao was painted with bright red national flag oil paint on his face, and held the small flag in his hand and shouted: "Come back, you're doing it beautifully! Shoot, shot...Oh!"
Just three minutes into the game, Hao Haidong broke through two defensive players in succession, but was squeezed away by the opponent's physical advantage. Four minutes into the game, the Chinese team's Qi Hong made a 20-meter long shot, but unfortunately the football was hit on the Brazilian team's defender. Five minutes into the game, the Chinese team made all the players save forward, and Wu Chengying shot again on the left side of the penalty area, and the opponent's players blocked the ball out of the bottom line.
Due to the influence of Chen Tao, Song Weiyang has changed from a pseudo-fan to an ordinary fan, and the basic game situation is still very clear. The performance of the Chinese team in the first five minutes had already surprised Song Weiyang and couldn't help but sigh: "This is a mad dog-style playing style, everyone is trying their best."
Chen Tao pointed to the Chinese players on the court and said, "I don't know if it's the Football Association's intention or Milu's opinion. The Chinese team has been trying hard to do this game. Several veteran players with experience in the competition were replaced and temporarily replaced with young players who dared to fight. The defense is basically out of the question. Even if Brazil kicked 10 goals, it doesn't matter. As long as China can score one goal, it can explain to the fans."
In the 15th minute of the game, Brazil scored a free kick.
"well!"
The Chinese fans at the scene sighed, but were not too disappointed, but cheered for the national football team with a louder voice.
The atmosphere is weird, but it's easy to understand.
Whether it is the Football Association, coaches, players, or fans who know or don’t know the ball, everyone feels it is impossible to defeat Brazil. I just hope that while being beaten by Brazil, the Chinese team can kick a ball, even if it is a ball!
“Wait!”
In the 61st minute of the game, the loud sound of the football hitting the goal post made Chen Tao, who was jumping up, sit back again, sighing with regret: "Oh, it's just a little bit."
"Beautiful." Song Weiyang exclaimed.
Dribbling the ball, passing directly, changing the line, moving, shooting... The cooperation of the Chinese team is smooth and smooth, and it is also a top performance in the World Cup, but unfortunately it hit the post in the end.
The game is still going on, but Song Weiyang is thinking about something else.
It is said that the butterfly effect is, why did the Chinese team travel through time? Still encountering Brazil, Turkey and Costa Rica in the group stage? Or did they play such a smooth cooperation when they were against Brazil, but in the end they hit the goal post with great accuracy?
Of course there are also changes.
As Milu sent a large number of young players on the bench, Zheng Zhi from Xifeng also made a debut in the second half for six minutes. It was already the 72nd minute. Goalkeeper Jiang Jin successfully saved the ball, and drove a big foot to the midfield. Zheng Zhi successfully headed the ball and turned around and passed it to Li Tie. Li Tie ran wildly for a while, and suddenly passed the ball back to Zheng Zhi's feet. Zheng Zhi was caught by Shao Jiayi. Shao Jia tried his best to cross two people. The Brazilian player who was repaired was squeezed away with his body, and at the same time he lost his balance, he transferred the ball to Li Xiaopeng.
Li Xiaopeng changed the line and flashed past the opponent's defender and shot 25 meters in front of the penalty area.
The shooting angle was very tricky and flew towards the lower right corner of the goal against the turf. The Brazilian goalkeeper tried hard to save, but only rubbed a little bit of the ball. After rubbing it for a while, the football changed its trajectory and hit the post again. The Brazilian defender quickly kicked the ball out of the baseline.
In another time and space, there is no attack this time, and there is no opportunity for this corner kick, which is due to the attack organized by Zheng Zhi and Li Tie in the midfield.
Li Xiaopeng was sent to take a corner kick. The player was eager to succeed and actually chose to kick into the goal. The football drew an arc and quickly drilled into the corner above the goal. The Brazilian goalkeeper had no time to save it. Unfortunately, he used a little too much force. The football hit the right angle at the upper right corner of the goal and bounced back and hit the back of the Brazilian defender, which scared the Brazilian player to clear the ball again.
But there were too many people in the penalty area, so this big foot hit Qu Bo's shoulder and flew straight to the sky.
Before the ball could fall, several players from both sides rushed over to grab the landing point. In a daze, someone pushed it. The football suddenly fell in front of Li Weifeng. Li Weifeng was obviously stunned for a moment, and subconsciously stopped the ball with his chest. Before he could wait for the football to land, he shot with all his might.
The Brazilian defender quickly stepped forward to block the ball, knocking the ball away at a 90-degree angle.
Originally, the Brazilian goalkeeper was already saving, and was facing the direction of the football. It was precisely because the Brazilian defender blocked it with his knees. The football changed its trajectory and hit the inside of the post. The goalkeeper threw in the air and the football also hit the bottom line.
"I've entered, I've entered!"
The Chinese fans stood up collectively, waving the national flag and cheering loudly. Even though they have been beaten 4:1 now, even if there is no hope of winning, just one goal can make the Chinese people excited.
Song Weiyang said in a daze: "Has the ball entered?"
"I've scored, I've scored, we've scored the goal!" Chen Tao pulled Song Weiyang up and waved his hand frantically.
Is this the butterfly effect?
The Chinese team in history did not score a single goal in the 2002 World Cup.
The details are as follows: Song Weiyang founded Xifeng Company, Chen Tao founded Xifeng Football Team, Zheng Zhi ran to Xifeng Team to play, and was sent to the national team by Chen Tao. So, when he was behind in a big score, Zheng Zhi came on the court as a substitute and organized an attack from the midfield with Li Tie. This attack was obviously failed, but he won a corner kick for the Chinese team. Li Xiaopeng directly shot a corner kick, causing chaos in the penalty area, and Li Weifeng got a shot. This time the shot was too straight and would be saved by the goalkeeper, but the trajectory changed because of the own block of the Brazilian defender, and the football went in.
On the court, Chinese players were hugging each other to celebrate, and some players even cheered and cried. Their pressure was too great.
Milu's greatest contribution to this national football team is his slogan "Happy Football". On the surface, he is just a head coach, but in fact he is just a foreign consultant and has no say in the formulation of strategies and tactics. When he felt that Chinese players were under great pressure, Milu had been doing psychological counseling, which really made Chinese players perform much better on the spot.
The Football Association set a goal from the beginning: defeating Costa Rica, drawing Türkiye, and losing to Brazil.
As a result, he was killed by Costa Rica in the first game. The Football Association changed its goal instantly: it doesn’t matter how many games it lost, just score a goal!
So from the second game, Milu actually obtained command of the Chinese team. The Football Association's instructions were to let him open his business, so Milu replaced a large number of experienced veterans under the pressure of public opinion, allowing those new young players to go to their lives, with only one goal: not to return to China with duck eggs.
This is enough. Chinese fans have low requirements and they can easily meet them.
Chen Tao was very satisfied. Although the Chinese team lost a big score of 1:4, she kept talking excitedly on the way back to the hotel: "The Chinese team has really made progress. This game was so exciting. There were several attacks that made me feel like I was watching the Premier League. This was a good start. I scored a goal first in the World Cup for the first time and I will be able to qualify in the group next time."
Song Weiyang didn't want to pour cold water on her, and smiled and changed the topic: "Did you buy football futures before the game?"
"I bought it, I bought Brazil and won the championship," Chen Tao smiled, "It's a pity that the odds are not high. I bet $1,000, and if I win, I can only turn it into $5,000. By the way, I rebeled $100 to buy the Chinese team and won the championship. What are the odds?"
Song Weiyang asked: "How many?"
Chen Tao said: "The odds are 1001 times."
Song Weiyang smiled and said, "I thought the odds were tens of thousands."
"There are no such many things. The highest odds for betting are only 1,001 times," said Chen Tao. "I also bought a semi-final group, betting first in Brazil, second in Germany, third in France, and fourth in the UK."
The top two of the combination packages bought by Chen Tao won the bet, but unfortunately the UK ranked sixth and France was directly left to the 28th.
Song Weiyang smiled and said, "I also bought two single bets, and I bet on Brazil's championship and South Korea's fourth place."
"Hahahaha," Chen Tao, as a senior fan, couldn't stand up straight. "With the strength of the Korean team, it's already burning the incense to enter the quarterfinals. You actually remanded the Korean team to enter the quarterfinals."
Song Weiyang said seriously: "Looking at various sports events over the years, as long as South Korea is the organizer, everything is possible."
"Does South Korea still dare to cheat in the World Cup?" Chen Tao said unbelievably.
Song Weiyang said: "Not to mention the World Cup, South Korea cheated more than once or twice in the Olympics. In the 1988 South Korea hosted the Seoul Olympics, Roy Jones Jr. swept the boxing world at that time, but lost a game because of a foul, and won four boxing champions from middleweight to heavyweight. As a result, he met Koreans at the Seoul Olympics, and he almost couldn't stand firm. After the game, the number of effective attacks was three times that of the opponent. As a result, the referee called him a foul, which allowed the Koreans to win the championship. I remember this very clearly. At that time, I had just graduated from elementary school and watched the Olympics at a classmate's house during the summer vacation. His classmate's father was a boxing enthusiast. After watching the game, he almost smashed the TV and scolded the Koreans for an afternoon.
Chen Tao said: "Even if the South Korean team has been cheating, they can reach the quarterfinals at most. The World Cup semi-finals cannot be entered by the black whistle."
"Let's see." Song Weiyang said.
Chen Tao asked: "How much did you spend to buy South Korea to enter the semi-finals?"
Song Weiyang said: "1 million US dollars, the odds are 151 times. If you win, you can turn it into 150 million US dollars. Or US dollars. Do you think the bookmaker will hack my money?"
Chen Tao couldn't help laughing and said with a smile: "It's like I bought welfare lottery in China. Before I could draw the lottery, I was thinking about how to spend money. If South Korea could enter the semi-finals..."
Song Weiyang seized the opportunity and interrupted: "Why do we also bet?"
"What are you betting on?" Chen Tao asked.
Song Weiyang leaned into Chen Tao's ears: "If South Korea can enter the semi-finals, you promise me..."
"I don't want it, it's so dirty!" Chen Tao blushed and pushed him away.
Song Weiyang said: "That's all."
Chen Tao gave him a blank look: "Go and bet, who is afraid of whom?"
South Korea's odds for entering the semi-finals are 151 times, which is the data before the start of the World Cup and will definitely be reduced as the game progresses.
Song Weiyang is betting among the top three betting companies in the world, and is not afraid that the other party will run away with money. Moreover, the South Korean team is so upset that it will only make the betting companies earn more, and Song Weiyang's 150 million bonus can afford to lose.
Of course, if Song Weiyang directly bets $10 million, the 1.5 billion bonus will make the bookmaker feel pain, and it is hard to say what the final result will be.
The wool must also be of some degree, so Song Weiyang only bet 1 million, and it doesn’t matter if he loses due to the butterfly effect.
