Chapter 628 Fighting Russia ([-])
"Because we are leading, I don't want any accidents in the game. We won in 90 minutes and we advanced," Queiroz said.
But Stan obviously doesn't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.
"You said they will fight later, who will have the upper hand"?
Seeing that Queiroz ignored him, Stan started talking to himself.
"Russia is the home field and there are many people, which is a big advantage." After speaking, Stan stretched out his right index finger.
"But English football hooligans have a long history and are a big bully in football," Stan stretched out his left index finger after speaking.
"Hey, each has its own advantages, it's hard for me to choose",
"Don't talk about it, Stan, when there is a real fight, you can run wherever you want."
Stan chuckled, he really wasn't afraid.
But in the end there was no fight at the scene, and the situation quickly calmed down, and the game was only delayed for a while.
Anyway, the first half ended soon, and these 15 minutes were the most difficult 15 minutes for the entire Russian nation.
*****
In the locker room, Slutsky no longer preached tactics, but turned into a history teacher and began to talk about the glorious history of Russia.
He started with Peter the Great, and the players listened, their faces turned blue and red. Everyone knew that they had disgraced the country today.
In the end, the captain "Akinfeev" stood up and said, "Coach, maybe we have embarrassed the country, but we have really tried our best. If possible, even if I trade my career or even my life, I also hope that the country will advance."
Other players think the same way, not because we don't fight, but after Arshavin, the current Russian team is just as strong.
A slightly old Russia is indeed only beaten in front of the youthful Chinese team.
"I can understand you guys, but will the fans out there understand? Will the whole country understand"?
"The Russian nation never sympathizes with losers"! !
Having said that, Akinfeev stopped talking, and he was silent. Yes, he knows what kind of character the Russians are.
At this time, a huge figure stood up in the locker room. He was so tall that the locker room seemed smaller because of him.
Djuba said, "It's only 2 goals behind. It's not the end of the world. There are 45 minutes left. The Russian nation doesn't respect the losers, but the Russian nation looks down on cowards who give up before the end."
What Juba said was impassioned, other players stood up and walked towards Juba, "Yes, there are still 45 minutes, 2 goals, why did we give up".
"What is the Chinese team?" !
"Yes, they just have a Li Qiao, and we have a glorious history in Russian football."
The Russians are like this, a nation that is easy to be self-satisfied. This nation has a hateful side and a very cute side, it depends on how you look at it.
*****
The atmosphere in the fan square outside the stadium was also a bit sluggish, which made the food vendors very anxious, because during the intermission, everyone was on the phone, maybe to comfort their families, or to seek comfort from their families.
At least no one had an appetite, so most of the people who went shopping were Chinese fans, so Xiao Sun went to buy a few hot dogs.
"Vassily, do you want it?"
Seeing Vasily on the phone, Xiao Sun asked politely.
Vasily waved his hand and continued on his phone.
"Dad, don't smash the TV first, what, you want to come to the scene? Don't, it's already crowded here, Dad, Dad...",
There was only beeping on the other end of the phone.
Vasily shook his head, and said helplessly to Lao Sun, "My dad was so angry at home. He said he would come to the scene. When the players' bus came out, he would teach these players a lesson."
Xiao Sun stuck out his tongue, "Playing football in a fighting nation is life-threatening. If our Chinese fans had this temper, they would have killed several groups of players."
Old Sun and Young Sun are all comforting Vasily, but Vasily's mood is obviously not high. The Russians have been looking forward to this World Cup for 7 years. As the saying goes, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
Little Sun, Old Sun, and Grandma didn’t say anything, just ate hot dogs and drank beer in silence. The Chinese fans at the scene were very friendly, and no one tried to provoke the Russians.
*****
In the locker room of the Chinese team, everyone is very happy. The Chinese team has stepped into the top 8 with one foot, which is better than the results of the last World Cup. The more important thing is to kill the host. This will be recorded in history.
Everyone knows that Stan is a professional pouring cold water, but even Stan didn't say anything this time, because Stan has seen through Russia, and their technical play is supported by their physical strength. Unless they change 11 players in the second half, Russia will not be able to pose any threat to the Chinese team.
Stan didn't pour cold water on it, but everyone was not used to it. Qi Bing looked at Stan eagerly.
"Why are you looking at me like a thief?"
"Stan, your crow's mouth, why did you shut up?",
When the words came out, everyone laughed.
"You are a crow's mouth, shut your monkey's mouth."
In fact, everyone’s thoughts coincided with Qi Bing’s, and everyone was used to Stan complaining, so Stan stopped complaining, and everyone really didn’t feel used to it.
"Okay, don't be itchy all of you, I won't scold you today, you are doing very well",
After speaking, Stan gave an unprecedented thumbs up.
"Oh my god, Stan, you can finally speak human language," Qi Bing said.
The locker room erupted with the happiest laughter.
*****
At 25 minutes into the second half, Shen Fangjian suddenly became impassioned.
"Russia has basically lost possession of the ball in the midfield, and the Russian players consume a lot of energy. From the scene, several Russian players are tying their shoelaces."
"This action is often not that the shoelaces are loose, but that the players are very tired, so they should squat down and slow down."
"Our Chinese team is getting closer and closer to the top 8 of the World Cup. I can hear the top 8 coming towards us. Yes, I can hear the footsteps of promotion."
"In the first qualifier match starting from the plateau stadium in Bhutan, we walked from the plateau to St. Petersburg. Thousands of viewers in front of the TV on this journey, like me, accompanied the Chinese team all the way. When we advanced to the quarterfinals, we should applaud ourselves. Each of us is a hero."
"Although the scene on the court is a bit dull now, I am very excited. If it wasn't for the live broadcast, I might not be able to help but cry."
"Please forgive my hoarse voice, because whenever the national football team scores a goal, I can't help screaming, it is an irrepressible primitive impulse."
"At this moment, I am proud of being a football fan, and even more proud of being a Chinese fan."
*****
At the end of the game, it seemed like garbage time. The Russian team couldn't run anymore, while the Chinese team's ball control was still so stable.
Stan replaced Xu Xin and Liao Lisheng,
Replace Yu Dabao, replace Li Qiao,
Every minute of the World Cup is as precious as gold. Stan cannot allow more players to play, but as long as there is an opportunity, Stan will try his best to let more players play to feel the passion of the World Cup. This is also the best practice of happy football.
At this moment, the Russians also calmed down. They accepted the reality of being eliminated by the Chinese team. Vasily put his hand on Lao Sun's shoulder.
"Being eliminated by the Chinese team may be the most acceptable reality for me, my Chinese friend",
Lao Sun was very moved, how powerful the charm of football is, it can turn two people who are thousands of miles away and do not know each other into friends.
"Vassily, do you have WeChat"?
Vasily shook his head, "No, but I can register one".
"Well, come to China to play with me in the future. By the way, you must come to BJ for the 2022 Winter Olympics."
Vasily nodded.
At the end of the game, Akinfeev fell to the ground and cried. This must be his last World Cup. A legend is over, and Russia stopped in the quarter-finals.
Akinfeev cried so sadly. In fact, 80% of the Russian players cried, but at this moment, the Russian fans showed tenderness, applause sounded, and they did not blame the Russian players.
Li Qiao ran over to help "Akinfeev", and this action won applause from the audience. At this time 4 years ago, it was the Chinese players who were crying. Everyone understands this feeling.
Zhou Dun took hold of "Juba". Although the Russian air fighter caused Zhou Dun a lot of trouble, the two of them embraced like good friends after the game.
The other Chinese players held the Russian players beside them one by one. At this time, whoever advanced and whoever lost was thrown aside.
Qi Bing stood with "Smolov" who was defending against each other, and the two were chatting in English.
"The next game, I will take my wife and children to watch your game," Smolov said.
Qi Bing scratched his head, chuckled, "By the way, is your wife pretty?"
"what?"
Qi Bing realized that he had said the wrong thing, "That's right, in China, this is a compliment."
"Oh," Smolov was still confused, "My wife is pretty, I can introduce you to her."
"That's good, by the way, do you have a sister"?
Smolov became even more confused, "Is this also a Chinese custom?"
Qi Bing was also embarrassed, he changed the topic, "Let's exchange jerseys."
Smolov nodded, and the two took off their jerseys to exchange. At a glance, almost every player exchanged jerseys with the Russian players beside them.
Li Qiao exchanged jerseys with Akinfeev. Zagoyev in the distance was envious. Li Qiao was his idol, and the two had similar positions on the court. He wanted to exchange jerseys with Li Qiao, but unfortunately, the captain preempted him.
After the game, all Russian fans turned to support the Chinese team. The Chinese team won the respect of the host people with their skills and professionalism.
After the game, Stan took the initiative to walk towards Slutsky, and the two held hands together.
