Chapter 313 Red and Black Years: The Prelude to the Closing! !

The hotel staff are busy transporting the players' backpacks to the bus...

Sitting on the sofa in the lobby, Xiangnan looked up, and through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, he could see the blue scenery of Cape Town... However, Xiangnan had no intention of admiring these, and he couldn't stop muttering Saying, "Final...I'm here...World Cup...Final!!!"

Buffon, who had already participated in the final of the last World Cup, patted Xiang Nan on the shoulder and said with relief, "Andre, don't be nervous, it's just a game with higher ratings..."

Glancing at Buffon Xiangnan, "Gianluigi...were you nervous during the last World Cup final?"

Buffon was taken aback by Xiang Nan's question. He wanted to say that he was not nervous at all... However, the Italian national team was stunned...

Yes! !
World Cup final, can you not be nervous?Not to mention a player like Xiang Nan who participated in the World Cup for the first time... Sometimes, Buffon even played Xiang Nan, not as mature as a 22-year-old player, but at this moment, Buffon is really I feel that this superstar who is one of the few in today's football is just a young player...

……

Lippi and the members of the Italian coaching staff came out of the elevator and clapped their hands together, "Boys... Let's go... Today, you will make history..."

"Let's go!!!" Italy's captain on the field today, Buffon shouted...

No one spoke, and everyone looked serious, like soldiers about to go to the battlefield, and they rushed out of the hotel gate...

click... click...

Outside the hotel, countless reporters had already gathered... The moment the Italian players came out, the sound of pressing the shutter formed a unique serenade...

The bus is driving slowly...

The streets are already full of Italian fans and Brazilian fans. The two distinct armies are making great strides towards the Green Point Stadium...

The Italian bus was coming, which caused a small riot. The Italian fans stopped on the side of the road. Since they gave way to the road, everyone was applauding and cheering... to give their heroes the highest courtesy! ! !

The flags of the fans...the jerseys...and even the faces are full of the feeling of a decisive battle, painted with paint, and the taste of passion! ! !

Xiang Nan sat on the window seat, with his cheek pressed against the car window, he could see that there were young fans, middle-aged people, old people, men, women...the faces of all were excited Feeling, looking forward to the victory of the game... That is the figure of hope from the heart... It makes people tremble...

All people, toward the same goal! ! !
Whether Brazilian or Italian, all stride forward... for the cup of life in their hearts! ! !

The South African police are already on the verge of a big enemy. Although there is no sign and historical reality that there is a possibility of large-scale conflicts between Italian fans and Brazilian fans... However, the South African police are still prepared... This World Cup, from the participating countries before the opening The trepidation of the law and order, and the compliments up to now... No one would think that at the last moment, something regrettable would happen...

Former South African President Nelson Mandela also delivered a speech today, calling on all fans to face the upcoming final with passion but calmness...

'I can proudly say that we South Africans hosted a great World Cup...It is normal for both sides in the final to win the final victory...Please face it with an appreciative attitude...Let us Come and look forward to...'

Three motorcycle police cars are clearing the way in front, the Italian bus is in the middle, and two police cars are behind a lot... The entire security level is said to be in accordance with international anti-terrorism standards...

*********
The distance to Green Point Stadium is getting closer and closer, and Xiangnan's new wave is surging...Looking at the spectacular stadium in the distance...Xiangnan can even feel his heart beating faster...It's beating so hard...

This---
It's the final! ! !
When the bus entered the square outside the Green Point Stadium, the fans burst into shouts that could overturn the bus... The police officers immediately formed a human wall on both sides of the road... Watching the bus speed up, it drove into the locker room In the parking lot, all the police officers breathed a sigh of relief...

……

Arrived, the bus door opened, everyone got out of the bus, Xiang Nan sat on the seat like that, looked at the opened door... leading directly to the dressing room... until everyone got off the bus, Xiang Nan After reacting, the last one got out of the car...

Take a deep breath, the air in South Africa in the early winter has a cold feeling, and the breath enters the lung cavity, which makes Xiangnan feel refreshed...

Xiang Nan could feel that not only himself, but everyone and his teammates were trying to ease his tension...

Giuseppe Rossi let out a long sigh of relief, just in time to see Xiang Nan looking at him, and his Italian striker partner looked at each other and smiled...

"Andre... the final..."

"Yes... Giuseppe, finals... let's go!!!"

……

The locker room was a bit too quiet... The heavy breathing of the men could be heard...

Everyone is trying to calm down their nervousness...

Lippi gently placed the tactical version on the table and began to speak——
"Boys...I'm proud of you guys...you must be wondering...the game hasn't started yet, how can I say that?...Yes!!! Lads!! I'm proud of you!!! The whole of Italy is too Proud of you guys!! You guys are great!! Among you, there are players who won the last World Cup...Andrei, tell me, how did it feel when you lifted the Hercules Cup?"

"At that moment, I felt that the happiness in this life was not as violent as that moment... I believe how much God loves me!!!!" Pirlo said.

"Very good!! Andrei, do you still want to experience that feeling?"

"I want to!!! I want to dream!!" Pirlo replied sincerely.

"So, other boys, what about you?!!!!" Lippi suddenly raised his voice and shouted, like a pious pastor suddenly reading the Bible...

"Think!!!" The men roared! ! ! !

"Then... tell me what to do!!!"

"Victory over Brazil!!!" Xiang Nan felt his heart beating violently, he shouted, maybe, only in this way can he relieve the excitement in his heart! ! !

At this moment, Xiang Nan only felt——
A man should be like this! !
"Victory over Brazil!!!!" Everyone roared! !The battle cry! !Roar of men! ! ! !

Lippi nodded in satisfaction. At this time, everyone did not realize that the nervousness just now had eased a little, and everyone's hearts were filled with strong fighting spirit! ! !
Lippi gestured for his players to be quiet——
"Guys, wait a while and show your masculinity like the Brazilians... You must know that there are quite a few beautiful Brazilians in the stands..."

Hahaha! ! !
Everyone laughed, even the assistant coach of the Italian national team, Pesotti, looked at his old partner in surprise... Lippi, who has always been strict and serious, actually said such humorous words during the World Cup final , it was really an accident...

"Okay, lads...here is the starting lineup for today's game--goalkeeper Gianluigi, be careful of the Brazilian's long shot...on the back line, right back Zambrotta..."

Xiang Nan noticed that Abarth showed a slightly disappointed expression, and he knew it in his heart. In such an important game, the head coach chose the experienced Zambrotta...

"...centre-back, Gamberini, Chiellini...left-back, Grosso...midfielder, Pirlo, Ambrosini...Camoranesi, Giovinco..."

Marchisio was stunned for a moment, the Italian midfielder, who thought he would be in the starting list of the final, opened his mouth slightly in astonishment...

Camoranesi was in ecstasy for a while, and there was a hot light in his eyes...

"Forward, Andrea... Giuseppe Rossi..."

*********
It's almost time! ! !

Everyone stand up! ! !

The door of the dressing room was slammed open, yes, it was slammed open! ! !

Italian men, can't wait! ! !

Perhaps, only this kind of action is the most powerful! ! !

Everyone filed out of the locker room and ran towards the player tunnel...the spikes rubbed in the corridor...the sound of rubbing...like a beating on the heart——
Drums! ! ! !

In the player tunnel, players from both sides lined up behind the referee, with serious expressions on their faces! ! !

Pato looked south, the two nodded, then looked away...the moment the game whistle sounded...they will be opponents! ! !
real rivals! !

Xiang Nan looked straight at the momentum of the player tunnel, the floodlights had illuminated the turf of the stadium into an unusually blurred and passionate... Xiang Nan took a deep breath, lowered his head, and looked at the little caddy beside him- ——
"Andre...will you score goals?" the little ball boy asked.

"Yes!!! Andre will score!!!" Xiang Nan smiled at the little black caddy. This sentence is not only the answer to the little caddy, but also what Xiang Nan is saying to himself... …

"Great!! I knew Andre would definitely score!!!" The little ball boy's excited eyes sparkled with little stars, as if he had already decided that as long as Xiang Nan said he would score, then then there is no problem...

Xiang Nan also smiled, he thought of his childhood...stars, for these children...it's not just as simple as a kicker...

........................

Cape Town's Green Point Stadium is starry tonight...

In the VIP seat, South African President Zuma waved towards the stadium, although, perhaps, the Italian and Brazilian fans did not have much interest in noticing the host, Mr. President...

It was the three women around Zuma who caught the attention of the live broadcaster... The Zulu president who practiced polygamy had three wives.Polygamy is a Zulu tradition that was legalized by the South African government in 3.Zuma has publicly declared that he will not hide his personal marital status and that he loves all his wives.This makes people in modern mainstream society who practice monogamy very interested...

FIFA President Blatter and UEFA President Michel Platini also sat together. The two seemed to be talking happily, but everyone on the earth knows that the unhappy relationship between Michel Platini and Blatter , definitely not much better than the relaxation between Johansson and Blatter back then...

This can even be seen from when Cristiano Ronaldo transferred to Real Madrid last year. Platini said that Ronaldo transferred to Real Madrid. 8000 million is simply unbelievable. This will set off a new irrationality in football. The investment boom will impact the foundation of professional football.As the head of FIFA, Mr. Blatter obviously has different opinions. At that time, when he was inspecting the preparations for the World Cup venues in South Africa, the president of FIFA agreed with Ronaldo's transfer to Real Madrid. I think that although the transfer fee is sky-high, it is not surprising that Ronaldo’s transfer to Real Madrid will bring benefits to Real Madrid in terms of sports performance and business performance after considering various factors...

However, when it came to Xiangnan's transfer to AC Milan, the president of FIFA said uncharacteristically that Xiangnan's worth...'is too outrageous...during the financial crisis, (such a price) was too much. Crazy...'

Not far from the two, is the Brazilian football king Pele... The Italy-Brazil final that was not on Mr. Pei's blacklist proved once again how indestructible Mr. Pei's crow-mouthed iron law is! ! ...

……

Below the dignitaries and big names in football, it is a place where some celebrities gather... In a place like the World Cup final... Of course, there will be no shortage of big names... However, everyone knows that today's protagonist—— yes---
22 men who will appear on the court in a while! ! !

*********
Numerous floodlights illuminate the Green Dot Stadium like daytime...the turf is surrounded by lights...sparkling...like a beating heart! ! ! !
"I'm so excited!!! Finally, this is the final!!! The final!!! The Italian boys will show their passion on this stage... If Italy can successfully defend their title, they will create History... And, in the Italian team, Andre's 10 goals in a single cup match have also created a new history in modern football... Today's game, I don't know if Andre can break A record that has been dusty for years... a record that belongs to God..."
