MTL - Fox in the Penalty Area-Chapter 261 It's the group of death
The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: [Aibilou]https://The fastest update! No ads!
"Rossini's free kick! Dangerous!"
Accompanied by the exclamation of the commentator He Feng, the din of the scene suddenly increased.
Screams and boos mixed with cheers.
The screams and boos must have come from the Chinese fans because they sensed danger.
And the cheers came from the Italian fans!
They saw an opportunity!
Although Caesar is no longer the omnipotent "emperor" back then, human inertia is terrifying.
I have believed in this person for more than ten years, and when they see this scene again, they will always be willing to look forward to it and look forward to it:
What if?
Maybe this time?
Is that Caesar back?
In short, no matter how much all the Italian fans hoped that the Italian team would get rid of the "weight" of Caesar before the game, at this moment, the remaining hope in their hearts was rekindled, and they hoped that Caesar could return to the age of twenty-eight... No, even if he returned Thirty-four years old four years ago is also fine!
They cheered desperately and waved the flag for Caesar.
Amidst his cheers, Caesar rushed to the football before Wang Guangwei.
But such a huge cheer soon became smaller.
Because everyone can see that Caesar's speed... is really slow!
He was actually chased by a central defender of the Chinese team!
Thinking back to the beginning, Caesar made his debut as a winger and achieved great success in the winger position. How could such a player be slow?
Later, I suffered a knee injury, so I switched from the wing to the center, and the winger became a center.
But the speed is still there. The knee injury just made him less dexterous in changing directions at high speed on the side. If he switches to the center and just sprints in a straight line, he is still a sharp weapon in the counterattack.
But the thirty-eight-year-old Caesar really couldn't get up, even if he didn't hurt his knee, let alone get hurt before.
So even though he reacted faster than Wang Guangwei and started running first, he was caught up by Wang Guangwei at the penalty area line.
When seeing this scene, many Chinese fans are probably already cheering for Wang Guangwei.
But at this time, there was a lot of scolding in the video barrage:
"Damn it! I was able to get rid of by a thirty-eight-year-old guy! What is Wang Guangwei doing?"
"It's the first time I watched the game. Is this what you call the 'Captain of China'? That's it?"
"The twenty-eight-year-old Wang Guangwei was thrown away by the thirty-eight-year-old Caesar, did they switch identities? Actually, Wang Guangwei is thirty-eight years old?"
"I said at the beginning that Wang Guangwei is not suitable to be the captain. What qualifications does he have? How can he convince the public when he is the captain?"
"Exactly! Why not let Hu Lai be the captain? Is the Chinese team so aggressive? Even Shi Yifeng can't be the captain?"
"Wang Guangwei's ball was really too much, and Caesar got rid of it after chasing it back! It's nothing!"
"Rubbish!"
The reason why everyone scolded him so much was because Caesar suddenly dialed the outside line of the football, then accelerated, caught up, and swung his legs to shoot!
Wang Guangwei was thrown away by Caesar's change in rhythm!
Of course, with his physical ability, he will be able to push up again soon... It doesn’t even have to be very fast, he can put it up again in the next step, and he can also take advantage of the inertia of this upward step to bump into Caesar again.
He believed that with Caesar's physical capabilities, he could push Caesar away without using foul strength.
But who would have thought that Caesar didn't give him this chance and shot directly!
After Caesar shot, Wang Guangwei bumped into it. Sure enough, he successfully knocked Caesar out, but it was useless.
The football, like a cannonball fired, passed by Lin Zhiyuan who was halfway through the attack, and crashed into the goal!
There was a lot of scolding in the barrage, and occasionally there were very few compliments.
Those who scolded were of course criticizing the conceded goal, while those who praised it praised that the goal was really beautiful—aside from the fact that the goal was scored by the Chinese team, Caesar’s goal was indeed beautiful, a classic quick counterattack.
The most important thing is that Caesar's scoring method is quite a bit of his previous heroic posture.
Makes the most of his speed to shoot quality **** on quick counter-attacks and blast opponents out of goal.
Simple and straightforward yet effective.
As a center forward, Caesar scored many such goals.
But in the last one or two seasons, as his physical condition has deteriorated, it has been difficult for him to hit this kind of blitz-like goal again.
Even the Chinese commentators He Feng and Yan Kang had to boast a few words in front of this goal:
"A goal was conceded in the 87th minute, and the Chinese team was in danger! But I have to say, Caesar's goal...beautiful! He played steadily and ruthlessly!"
"...the 38-year-old Caesar seemed to be 34 years old when he sprinted, but when he suddenly got rid of it, he seemed to be back to 28 years old! This shot... is 21 years old for Caesar All the skills of my career have been poured into this foot!"
When the two narrators said this, Caesar had already got up from the ground.
After turning his head to confirm that the football flew into the goal, he did not run anywhere to celebrate excitedly, but stood in the penalty area of the Chinese team, raised his hands, and turned up the collar of his jersey.
This is a celebratory gesture he often made when he was young, showing his domineering and self-confidence to the fullest. But in the past two years, he has rarely done this celebration...
At the same time, all the barrage on the screen praising the goal was beautifully scored disappeared, only cursing remained:
"What hook 8 thing!"
"Win Spain and start to wave! Play like shit!"
"Originally, Baoping could sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight in the last round, but now it's good, go and fight Nigeria! Fuck!"
"What about qualifying for the group round early as agreed? What a mess!"
"If you can win Spain 3:0, you can lose Italy 0:1 in the end! Chinese football is really good at letting you down when you have hope for them..."
"All sinners!"
…
Tang Yuan looked at the barrage on the phone screen with complicated emotions.
When watching the live broadcast with my friends in the early hours of this morning, when Caesar scored a goal, the audience exclaimed, and everyone was "my day" and "my day" non-stop.
Tang Yuan also put his head in his hands and said "My day".
But the meaning he wants to express this "my day" may be far more complicated than that of his friends.
As a Chinese, a Chinese fan, seeing his home team conceding a goal at the last moment, he certainly knows what it means.
Originally a draw with one point firmly took the initiative to qualify.
Now he's pushing himself over the edge.
How could he be happy about it?
But at the same time, as a Caesars fan for fifteen years, seeing his idol under such tremendous pressure, scored the winning goal in the life-and-death battle of the Italian team, and stepped on the ridicule and humiliation of everyone before him.
It was impossible for him not to be happy about it.
It was his youth after all...
So when he heard He Feng's words, his eyes instantly turned red.
From the age of seventeen to thirty-eight, Celius Caesar's career spanned twenty-one years.
And he also liked Caesar for fifteen years from the age of twelve to twenty-seven.
Fifteen years of long-term love... In the end, liking seems to have become a habit, and I am used to having such a person with him in his watching career.
He is so used to it that even though he knows that the criticism of Caesar from the outside world in the past two years is correct, he still has illusions—maybe Caesar can perform miracles again? For this reason, he went to the Internet to quarrel with many people.
He had thought about fantasies like this a lot.
For example, in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League this season, after the Turin Bulls lost 0:1 at home to Sporting Amsterdam, there was a lot of criticism of Caesar on the Internet. Tang Yuan imagined that in the next round, Caesar would go down to earth and score a key goal in the away game to help the Turin Bulls equalize the total score, and then drag the game into overtime and finally into a penalty shootout.
Then relying on Albertazzi's personal ability, Athletic Amsterdam was eliminated.
It's just that he hasn't guessed a fantasy like this in the past season. So he was always mocked.
The Turin Bulls were eliminated in the last sixteen of the Champions League, lost the Coppa Italia and the league title.
After one season, there is nothing to gain.
His former hero and idol, Celius Caesar, did not perform well either.
He became the chief culprit for the failed season of the Turin Bulls.
Some people say that the Turin Bulls have not been able to recruit enough strikers in the past two years. Just because he's not willing to give up his place at the club...
Although Caesar can no longer serve as a starter for the Turin Bulls, those who say this obviously cannot see this. They only knew that Caesar must be blamed for the problems with the Turin Bulls, and some people would scold them along with them. It could attract traffic online without any risk, so why not do it?
This is the same as scolding the national football team before.
It's just that as Chinese football has become more and more competitive in recent years, it is no longer feasible to scold the national football team, and the risk is great.
Scolding Caesar does not exist.
Caesar has many fans, but many fans who liked him back then are now middle-aged and living under a lot of pressure, so how can they have the energy to scold others online?
Is 996 not working enough overtime?
Or is the child's tuition too low?
Or is the wife's desire satisfied?
In addition, no matter how many fans Caesar has, he can't match the number of fans of everyone else.
So now on the Internet, people who like Caesar are all "disadvantaged groups"-how prosperous they were back then, they are now disadvantaged, and it can be regarded as a turn of events.
Everyone has this day, in fact, no one can escape.
Tang Yuan's thoughts were pulled back from those messy thoughts, and his eyes refocused.
The video has finished playing, and the picture freezes on the last frame, and all kinds of messy barrage on that frame.
He sighed softly.
In the past year or so, all his fantasies and obsessions with Caesar were satisfied in that goal.
In addition to the fact that Chinese fans naturally support the Chinese team, as a double fan of Caesars and the Italian national team, he has no obsession with the performance of the Italian team in this World Cup.
It doesn't matter whether you get out or not, anyway, Caesar completed a beautiful goal.
In his heart, he already regarded this ball as Caesar's "last dance" in the World Cup.
Next, he will wholeheartedly cheer for the Chinese team, hoping that the Chinese team can successfully qualify from this group.
This is really the top priority.
Because the situation with this group right now...is so complicated!
※※※
Italy 4 points
Chinese team 3 points
Spain 3 points
Nigeria 1 point
Albertazzi lay reclined on the bed, looking at the points and rankings of Group H so far on his mobile phone.
Ranked first was the "upset" draw by Nigeria in the first round, which led to Italy, which many people were not optimistic about.
In the first round, they beat the defending champion by three goals, and the Chinese team, which stole the limelight, is now ranked second...
As for Spain, which has been in the limelight, they finally found their sense in the second round of the group stage. Juan Ramirez's return from the line of fire also made their morale high. In the end, they defeated Nigeria 3:1 and currently have three points. After losing the first game, many people thought that Spain would not be able to get out of the group stage, but now it has come back to life.
Nigeria has one draw, one loss and one point. It looks the worst, but in fact, there is still hope of qualifying for the group - as long as they can beat the Chinese team in the final round of the group stage, and Italy beat Spain at the same time.
In the final round of the group stage, Italy and Spain will face off against each other, and the Chinese team should not take it lightly when they play against Nigeria.
If Italy loses to Spain and the Chinese team beats Nigeria, then the Chinese team and Spain will share six points, qualify for the group stage, and Italy and Nigeria will go home.
If Italy loses to Spain but China draws with Nigeria, then Spain will rank first in the group with six points, and China and Italy will share four points, but China has the advantage in goal difference and will be ranked first in the group. Second's identity qualifying.
If Italy and Spain draw, then no matter how the Chinese team and Nigeria play, Italy will qualify. As for who can qualify for the Spanish and Chinese teams, the Italians don't care.
If Italy draws with Spain...
So many possibilities made Albertazzi feel a little dizzy.
In the end, he could only throw the phone aside, close his eyes and rest.
It really deserves to be the group of death!
After resting for a while, Albertazzi turned to look at the bathroom.
He felt a little strange, did the captain take a little longer to go to the bathroom?

"Selius, Celius... Thank you! You are indeed the omnipotent 'Emperor'!"
After the game with the Chinese team, the excited head coach Caviglia rushed to the field and hugged his players to celebrate the victory.
When he hugged Caesar, he said so in the other's ear.
He was really excited and happy.
Caesar's goal saved not himself, but also Caveglia.
As the head coach of the Italian national team, he took over the team after the 2028 European Cup, followed by the World Cup.
Although he led the team to win the first place in the group in the World Cup qualifiers and relatively easily qualified for the finals, he knows that the World Cup is the real test.
As a result, he led the team to a draw with Nigeria in the first game, and the pressure immediately came to him like a mountain.
If the final group does not qualify, maybe he will be fired on the plane flying back to Italy from Spain...
Caesar's goal is tantamount to saving him from the crisis of getting out of class.
"Great! Your form is back! You will start the next game against Spain!" Caviglia said excitedly.
But Caesar's answer surprised him: "I'll be a substitute in the end, Mateo."
"Ah?" Caviglia was taken aback for a moment, then he frowned, "Are you angry with me, Celius?"
Caesar shook his head. "No, Mateo. I'm just hurt."
"Injured?!" Caviglia's eyes widened.
"You can say that, Mateo." Caesar smiled at him.
Caviglia quickly realized that he understood what Caesar meant, and after taking a long breath, he nodded again and again: "Understood. First consume Spain's physical strength, and then let you come off the bench at a critical moment. The final word! That's it manage!"
He patted Caesar on the shoulder hard again, and then went to celebrate the victory with other team members.
Seleus Caesar, withdrawn from the memory of last night, was sitting on the toilet in his shorts, with a plastic bag of water on his right knee.
The plastic bag is tied tightly so that the water inside cannot leak out.
The cold water from the tap before, ice on his knees, made him feel comfortable.
Actually he didn't lie.
He really hurt.

PS, a change will be restored tomorrow
In addition, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com has a fever in the afternoon. Although the antigen has not been tested yet, I feel that it should be positive.
After all, my wife and children have been exposed to the sun for more than a week. My wife is still in pain, her tonsils are festered, and she can't eat or drink.
Today I accompanied her to a clinic full of yang.
I am a person who meets Yangmi every day, and goes out to buy things and take express delivery every day. If I don’t have Yangmi, it’s really unreasonable...
So let's be sunny.
Both tomorrow and the day after tomorrow are updated. Then look at my physical condition, if it's just a low fever, then if I can still stick to the code words, I will continue to watch every day until I get better.
If the situation becomes serious, it will be completely cut off for a period of time.
After all, I am a person with diabetes, and I really dare not think that I can fool the past without symptoms...
