Chapter 499 I want to score as much as Ronaldo
After the war between Britain and Afghanistan, fans who like to watch football can be regarded as having enough fun.

Amid speculation about how far England will go this term with David Beckham and Michael Owen at the helm, the first European team to be knocked out has also emerged.

On June 6, South Africa beat Slovenia 8-1, playing for Udinese rookie Norm Witt scored the winning goal with his thigh.Slovenia, hit by infighting, suffered a losing streak and became the third team to be eliminated.

For South Africa, this game is also the team's first victory in World Cup history.

South Africa coach Sono told reporters after the game: I want to watch the video of this game 100 million times!
Another game in Kashima also revealed a big upset in this World Cup.

Italy played in a 2 formation in the previous game. After defeating Ecuador 0-[-], the gold medal coach Trapattoni insisted on this formation again.

After Croatia lost 0 to 1 to Mexico, coach Jozic boldly replaced five players, including abandoning the team's most famous star Suker.

The two teams attacked each other throughout the first half. Although the young Croatian offensive was more fierce, the two sides still scored a goalless goal.

In the 50th minute of the second half, Italy took a free kick from the left side of the frontcourt. With Doni’s tactics, it passed to the goal. Vieri hooked the ball with his right foot into the net but was sentenced to offside. Dissatisfied with the penalty, Vieri argued with the line referee.

In the 55th minute, Maldini passed the ball obliquely from the left side of the backcourt to the right side of the frontcourt. Doni, who was unguarded, knocked a low flat ball to the front and back of the goal.Vieri, who scored twice in the previous game, leaped high and headed the goal. The ball went straight into the lower right corner of the goal and entered the net. Italy temporarily led 1-0.

In the 72nd minute, Olic just replaced him in the second half to equalize the score for Croatia: Giarni broke through to the bottom line on the left, faced Panucci’s frontal defense and still passed the ball successfully.

Just 3 minutes later, the goddess of luck once again miraculously favored the Croats!
Rapajic dribbled the ball from the right side of the frontcourt and passed it back to Niko Kovac on the left side of the frontcourt from the right side of the penalty area. The latter then passed the ball straight to Rapajic who had reached the middle of the penalty area.

If the game is over, the Italian may not be able to say anything.After all, skills are not as good as people, and if you lose, you lose.

However, Italy did not give up the game after falling behind, and immediately strengthened the offensive power of the striker.

In stoppage time, Italy fought back fiercely. Materazzi made a pass in the middle of the goal. Inzaghi overthrew the defender Simic who was defending him and sent the ball into the net when receiving the ball.

But at this moment the linesman signaled that the foul was invalid before the goal, and then Zambrotta dribbled the ball from the right side of the front of the penalty area and was kicked out of the baseline.

The Italians reluctantly accepted the fate of losing 1-2.

Because Italy was blown away with two goals in this game, it aroused the extreme anger of the Italian domestic media, and various media shouted "The Azzurri World Cup was robbed".

The headline on the front page of Gazzetta dello Sport read: "A steal!"

The largest "Sports Daily" in Italy pointed the finger at the referee, calling it an "ugly law enforcement."

"Gazzetta dello Sport" quoted Franco Sensi, chairman of the Italian Club of Rome, as saying: "All this proves that we are not a figure in the international arena, and we have no political weight."

Immediately, the Italian Football Association stated that it had decided not to appeal to FIFA, which caused Italian players and critics to be disappointed and frustrated with the referee and linesman.

Maldini said disappointedly to the camera after the game: "The referee beat us."

So far, if Italy wants to qualify in Group G, it can only get a chance to qualify if it beats Mexico in the next round.

When the news of Italy's defeat came, the national football players in the locker room also sighed.

"I didn't expect Italy to lose too!" Zhao Junzhe sighed, expressing the thoughts of most of the national football players.After all, many of the players here are fans of Italy, and they will inevitably feel a little depressed after learning that Italy lost.

"Didn't Croatia win?" Bai Xiaotian took a towel and wiped his sweat after warming up at the Seogwipo Stadium.

Hearing Bai Xiaotian's words, everyone present was stunned for a moment.

"Xiaotian, don't you mean the same thing?" Sun Taiyang, who has a good relationship with Bai Xiaotian, took over the conversation.

Sun Sun will miss the second group match of the World Cup for China due to an injury in the match against his elder brother team.If it weren't for Bai Xiaotian's contribution to the injury spray, Sun Taiyang might not be able to make an appearance until the Chinese team advances to the top [-].

"No, Brother Sun, that doesn't mean anything!" Bai Xiaotian said emphatically: "We and Croatia are both weak teams, so we have to look at this game from the perspective of Croatia. This game is a loss for Italy, but a win for Croatia!"

After Bai Xiaotian explained it like this, everyone understood.

This is like having half a glass of water. A pessimistic person will say: I only have half a glass of water left!But an optimistic person will say: I still have half a glass of water!
The battle is imminent, the most indispensable thing for the Chinese team is confidence.

Because of Bai Xiaotian's amazing performance in the first game, all the complaints about Bai Xiaotian in the national football team disappeared.The national football team members are still very united in the face of major issues, and the reason why they are excluded is because the parties feel that they are not as good as themselves.It's better to play by yourself, and you can help the team score two more goals.

But the just-concluded match with the brother team made the national football players see themselves and the status quo clearly.

Even a very weak small team in the World Cup is playing so hard, and my level is really far behind the world.

At this time, Bai Xiaotian, who stood up and scored three goals in a row, had already established his prestige in the national football team by virtue of his hat-trick.In such a bad state, it is possible to win three cities in a row. Everyone here thinks that it is impossible to do this.

Over the past few days, Bai Xiaotian's remarks have gradually attracted the attention of the national football team.At least Ma Mingyu, Fan Zhiyi, Jiang Jin and other veterans still gave Bai Xiaotian a lot of face.

For these veterans who have played in the national football team for many years, it doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat.If Bai Xiaotian can score a goal, he has the right to speak, and he is on his side!

Just as everyone was reminiscing about Bai Xiaotian's remarks, the young Zhao Junzhe approached Bai Xiaotian, put his arm directly on Bai Xiaotian's shoulder and asked, "Xiaotian, do you still have the confidence to score in today's game?"

Zhao Junzhe and Bai Xiaotian are not much different in age, and they are both from the Liaoning team, so the relationship is naturally closer than others.

"Yeah Xiaotian, how many do you think you can score in today's game against Brazil?" Sun Sun echoed with a grin.

Different from Zhao Junzhe's choice between "0 and 1", Sun Taiyang's "1 and N" is a bit more tricky.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you guys really think of me as a god! This ball can be scored if it is said to be scored?" Bai Xiaotian waved his hands and pushed.

"Xiaotian, why are you still being modest at this time? If I were you, I would say that I can score 3 more, so that everyone will have motivation to kick, right!" *** also interjected at this time.

"Yeah, yeah, Xiaotian, just tell me the number, we can work hard like this, hahahaha!" Others in the locker room also laughed and joined in the fun.

Bai Xiaotian shook his head, looked down at the title of "World's Strongest Forward Showdown" on the newspaper in his hand, and said confidently: "As many goals as Ronaldo can score, I can score as many goals as possible!"
