Chapter 697: Starting a War

Soon the referee team came up from behind and said to the captains of both sides: "Prepare to appear, gentlemen!"

Yin Jun turned around and applauded and shouted to his teammates: "Here you appear! Here you! Here you cheer up!"

Other Chinese players turned around and reminded their teammates behind them and encouraged each other. Then the players on both sides took their own little caddies and followed the referee team and their captains, and walked forward.

This is not the first time that both teams have appeared in the World Cup, but compared to the Chinese team that has only advanced for the second time, Sweden is a regular visitor to the World Cup. Since participating in the World Cup for the first time in 1934, this has been

They entered the World Cup finals for the 11th time.

During this period, they achieved brilliant results, winning the runner-up, two third place, fourth place, two quarter-finals, and one quarter-finals, and only two failed to qualify in the group!

Judging from his historical record alone, Sweden definitely crushes the Chinese team!

It is precisely because of this that Sweden does not regard the Chinese team as a competitor at all. They are talking about how to compete with England for the first place in the group so as to avoid the strong teams in other groups and try to make it as much as possible in this World Cup.

Far.

Although the historical record looks good, the last time Sweden entered the semi-finals was 12 years ago. Then they missed the 1998 World Cup in France and the 4 years ago in Korea and Japan, and they just entered the World Cup in Korea and Japan.

Top 16.

……………………

The players on both sides walked onto the stadium under the national flags of their respective countries and stood in a row.

The live broadcast prompts everyone to play the national anthem of both parties participating in the competition next.

The stadium quickly became quiet.

The Swedish national anthem was the first to ring. Swedish players seemed relatively calm because it was not too new to them to participate in the World Cup.

After the Swedish national anthem, a burst of applause and brief cheers rang out on the scene, followed by a reminder from the radio: "Play the National Anthem of the People's Republic of China below!"

The cheers came to an abrupt end and the stadium was silent.

"Get up—people who don't want to be slaves!"

At this moment, whether it was the stands at Iduna Park Stadium or the fans watching the game in front of the domestic TV and computers in the distance, they all started singing loudly like the Chinese team players on the stadium.

"Build our flesh and blood! into our new Great Wall!"

"The Chinese nation is at its most dangerous time!"

"Everyone was forced to let out the last roar-"

A deafening roar sounded over the Iduna Park Stadium. The fans who rushed from faraway China, the Chinese and overseas Chinese who were already in Europe... brought their voices into the chorus at the top of their voices.

"Get up! Get up!!! Get up!!!"

The broadcast footage swept across the Chinese team's coaching seat and bench in turn. Whether it is the coaches or the substitutes, they all stood in front of their seats, facing the direction of the national flag.

"We are united! Rising the enemy's artillery fire - advance!"

The camera once again swept over the eleven Chinese players who started, and through the live radio of the microphone, the TV audience could even hear the singing from their mouths.

"Rare the enemy's artillery fire, advance! Go forward! Go forward!!"

With the disappearance of the last note, huge cheers couldn't wait to be heard from the stadium stands.

The captain Yin Jun in the camera slapped hard and shouted loudly to his teammates: "Prepare for the game! Brothers!"

In a VIP box in the stands, Ye Lanqiu was also applauding, cheering for Yin Jun and his teammates.

Countless Chinese fans in front of the TV were also shouting: "Come on the Chinese team!!"

……………………

As the captain, Yin Jun won the right to pick the side, while Sweden won the kick-off. However, Sweden's first attack did not pose any threat to the Chinese team's goal, and was defended by the Chinese team.

Go down.

Zheng Zhi, who cut off the ball, handed the ball to Yin Jun.

Swedish midfielder Lindrot came to press Yin Jun, but Yin Jun easily passed by him.

"Gao Lin! Run!"

After passing Lindrot, Yin Jun shouted. Gao Lin, a young player who started playing the right forward in this game, suddenly stepped forward, but he was still following the Swedish defensive player.

Seeing this, Yin Jun did not pass the football to him, but passed it into the space he pulled out. Li Jinyu rushed over and competed for football with Swedish central defender Lucici.

Under the close-fitting defense of the tall Lucici, Li Jinyu was completely unable to shoot, and at the same time he lost his balance in the confrontation and slipped to the ground.

However, after years of experience in the game, Li Jinyu still struggled to reach the football even if he fell to the ground, and hooked the football back before Lucici.

He was tenacious and did not give up this attack, but instead supported the ground with his hands, turned his body on the grass in the penalty area, swung his feet and swung the football upward to clear the ball. The football hit the opponent's

The calf flew out of the bottom line.

Even if you can't finish the shot, it's good to get a corner kick!

……………………

"Li Jinyu won a corner kick for the Chinese team!" Huang Jianqiang, who was in the live commentator's seat, said loudly in a huge cheer.

In this game, nearly two-thirds of the Iduna Park Stadium in Dortmund were Chinese fans, and the remaining one-third were composed of local German fans and Swedish fans, so in terms of momentum, Chinese fans completely gained the upper hand.

Since the beginning of the game, I have never heard of various shouts from Chinese fans. Coupled with Chinese characters and slogans and flags that can be seen everywhere in the stands... I was still thinking that this was the home court of the Chinese team.

Before the game, some media said that all Chinese in Europe gathered in Dortmund. This was a bit exaggerated, but it was enough to show the enthusiasm of Chinese and overseas Chinese.

Although this is not the first time that the Chinese men's football team has appeared in the World Cup, it is also the first time that the Chinese team has appeared in major events in the Western World. It is completely different from the previous Chinese team who came to Europe to play warm-up matches, even last year's

The Federation Cup is completely incomparable to the current World Cup.

Such a major moment is not only a carnival for Chinese fans, but also a grand festival for Chinese and overseas Chinese scattered around the world. Therefore, there are many people cheering for the Chinese team in the stands of the Iduna Park Stadium, but in fact, they are not

It's not from all the way from China.

After the opening, the Chinese team's performance did not disappoint them.

Before the game, some people were worried that the Chinese team players would be unable to let go of their hands during the game because of nervousness, but in fact, the Chinese team performed quite well, at least they did not see any obvious stage fright.

It is obvious that the Chinese team has won the Asian Cup and Federation Cup championships in the past two years, which has brought strong confidence to the players. Even when facing European strong teams like Sweden, they are calm.
