(one more)
No matter whether it is at the Modu International Airport or the Liuting Airport in the island city, the Costa Rican national team arrived in China without any surprises. It was not at all as lively as when the Chinese team arrived in Costa Rica a month ago.

The Costa Ricans didn't feel unhappy because they didn't have a star player, and Li Huan of the Chinese team was worth enough to buy ten of their teams. This kind of difference made it impossible for them Generate jealousy.

Because they did not win the Chinese team at home and allowed the Chinese team to score two away goals, Costa Rica was in a disadvantageous situation in the promotion. This time when they came to China, Costa Rica also deliberately kept a low profile. accepted interviews from a small number of reporters, and then went to the hotel arranged for them by the Football Association.

Before the life-and-death battle, the Costa Rica team was not as close to the enemy as the original Chinese team. They really regarded football as entertainment. Have a good time in the city.

On the afternoon of the second day, the head coach of Costa Rica held the first press conference. At the press conference, Lavolpe mentioned the miracle again when talking about tomorrow's game. He said: "After a month of precipitation, The players and I thought it was a victory if we were able to draw with the Chinese team in the first game, even though we had an advantage at the time, because in terms of strength, this Chinese team is definitely one of the top 20 teams in the world Now that we have come to the home court of the Chinese team, we can see that the fans here are very enthusiastic. When we return to our home court, with the encouragement of these fans, the Chinese team will definitely perform better than the previous game. We need to win if we want to win. Miracles, of course, this miracle did not fall from the sky, this miracle needs us to create together.”

Then Lavolpe made comments on the turf of the Yizhong Stadium, "This kind of turf is really bad. Our players twisted their feet on the first day here, and the turf is not even. I don't know how the Chinese team is. Those who played on it, did they choose such a stadium on purpose?"

Chu Fu, the assistant coach of the Chinese team, explained Lavolpe's doubts at a later press conference. Chu Fu said: "I understand coach Lavolpe's mood at the moment. Playing on such turf really affects the players. But please believe that we will not embarrass the guests on the court, because we are also playing on the same court, and if Coach Lavolpe has time, he can visit other courts in China, so he will definitely not Complained. Just because we have built a world-standard stadium for you, it doesn’t mean that our domestic stadiums have also reached international standards.”

The game will be held at 15:[-] pm on the [-]th. This time is the prime time for Chinese TV viewers. The advertising costs during this time period are calculated in millions of millions per second. However, today’s time period gave a national team football game.

In the morning, the People's Government of Daocheng specially approved that if the Chinese football team wins the match against Costa Rica in the evening, citizens can set off firecrackers to celebrate. In China, firecrackers are only sold during the Spring Festival in big cities.A deputy mayor of the municipal government said that this was a decision made at the request of fans.

In fact, the reason why the island city government made such a decision was not to really consider the demands of the fans, but because the holding of the match related to the Chinese team's qualifying in the island city brought huge economic benefits to the island city and honor.

One week before the game, tens of thousands of fans came to Daocheng one after another. On the day of the game, there were as many as 30 fans from all over the world who came to Daocheng. Ranked first, the media from all over the world also mentioned Daocheng one after another, and regarded Daocheng as the place where the superstar Li Huan dreamed of taking off.

Daocheng is a seaside tourist city. Li Huan and the World Cup will further expand the influence of Daocheng in the world. Of course, the Daocheng government will not fail to see the huge commercial benefits in it.They not only lifted the ban on firecrackers, but also opened up the city government and major squares, allowing fans to take to the streets to celebrate. However, in order to prevent accidents, the city government not only mobilized most of the energy from various places, but also borrowed the power of the navy.

With the opening of the ban on firecrackers in the island city, Dalian, which is across the sea from the island city, has also lifted the ban on fireworks. Afterwards, developed cities such as Chengdu, Shanghai, and Guangzhou allowed fans to set off firecrackers and fireworks on the streets to celebrate. At least one-third of the entire China Two of the population is in a state of preparation for qualifying celebrations.

Five hours before the start of the game, the scalpers had dispersed and the tickets had already been snapped up. The Yizhong Stadium could only hold 5 people, but the number of fans who came to Daocheng exceeded 6. It is impossible for most of the fans to have a ticket. A ticket for an ordinary position can cost thousands of dollars, and the scalpers have made a lot of money.

With three hours left in the game, the stands were already overcrowded. Fans were beating gongs, drums, making crowds, shouting slogans, singing the song of Li Huan, huge five-star red flags, and banners of fan associations across the country. Move forward like a wave.The entire stadium has turned into a sea of ​​boiling water.

At 6:30 p.m., the national team held its last meeting before the game at the Shangri-La Hotel. All members of the coaching staff, the main players of the national team and all the substitutes sat in the conference hall on the fourth floor.Without the bureaucracy of the Football Association, the meeting was very concise.

The agent Chu Fu spoke first. He first announced the starting players of the game, then repeated the tactical arrangement of the game, and finally sat down after saying a few words of blessing.

Then Li Huan stood up. He looked around the meeting room first, and then said slowly: "I think everyone knows what kind of day it is today. I don't want to emphasize its importance again. Now I want to say There are only a few words from my heart. As a coach and as a player, I think my heart beats with the same pulse as everyone else's.

Everyone knows that there are three rules of law. Without the three rules of law, there would be no current national team, and it would be impossible for me to be your teammate.I will now tell you the reasons why I have reorganized the national team in three chapters.First, this is the last pursuit of my career, and I don't want to retire with regrets; second, I hope to give the Chinese people full of confidence that we can do everything well.Third, I want the Football Association to understand that doing nothing is more helpful to the development of Chinese football than doing everything.

Regarding today's game, I also have three words to say. The first sentence: We have not qualified yet.The second sentence: We can also advance 0:0.The third sentence: They can't advance without scoring.

For fans and reporters, I have a word to say: water can carry a boat or capsize it. We must keep calm to the applause of the fans, because we did not perform well, and the applause will soon turn into scolding.

The last sentence is what I want to share with everyone, "History will remember the winners as well as the losers. How history is written depends on what we do on the court today."

alright!End of the meeting!ready to go! "

When the Chinese team came out of the hotel and wanted to take the bus to the stadium, thousands of fans gathered at the entrance of the hotel immediately surrounded them. The game was about to start. They didn't ask the players for autographs or group photos, but just wanted to accompany the Chinese team Complete the walk from the hotel to the stadium.

The luxury bus walked slowly among the crowd of fans, and the players of the national team finally arrived at the Yizhong Stadium when there was still an hour before the game.

It was like a typhoon blowing through the stands, and the banners fluttered. The fans of the Chinese team stood up and let out a burst of enthusiasm and hunger.

The on-site commentator Duan Xuan said excitedly: "The Chinese team is here! The Chinese team is here! The game will start soon! The starting lineups of the two teams have been announced. Now let's take a look at the starting lineups of both teams.

The Chinese team returned to the original 451 lineup in this game. The goalkeeper has no doubts, and Zong Cheng, who has been performing consistently and outstandingly, is lined up in four defenders: Li Huan, Xu Bin, Wang Chunlei, and Fan Yang. The midfielders are Wu Han, Liu Chao, Chen Teng, Yu Tong, Gu Tianyuan, striker Xu Yang.

The formation of the Chinese team shows that the Chinese team has not lost their composure. They know what style of play will make Costa Rica feel the most uncomfortable. No matter what the situation is, as long as they can advance.

我们再看一下哥斯达黎加本场比赛的首发阵容，和上一场相比，哥斯达黎加有了一定的调整，“18-阿尔瓦雷多；6-莫拉、4-乌纳、5-马丁内斯、3-博尔赫斯；20-马歇尔、14-奥维耶多、11-巴兰特斯、21-埃利泽多、24-乌雷尼、9-坎贝尔。”

Costa Rica's lineup is very aggressive. In order to adapt to China's environment, climate, and venue characteristics, La Volpe has formed a team with young people as the new force, preparing to fight the Chinese team.

"Li Huan! Li Huan!"

"Out of the line out of the line!"

When the commentator announced the starting lineups of the two sides, the Chinese team came out to warm up, and the fans in the stands roared again. More than 6 people chanted Li Huan's name and waved their arms together, like a strong wind blowing through the forest. So spectacular.

When the Costa Rican players also came out to warm up, the fans of the Chinese team booed together. The voice was so loud that it completely covered the applause of hundreds of die-hard Costa Rican fans.

Being booed by more than 6 fans made the Costa Rican fans very uncomfortable. They made frequent mistakes in training, which attracted ridicule from Chinese fans.Even the commentator said: "If Costa Rica is at this level in the competition, then they can qualify without playing against the Chinese team."
