Beast King Costa

Chapter 221 Familiar Names

On the afternoon of July 7th, the friendly match between Benfica and the Qingdao team began at the Tiantai Stadium in the center of QD.

Due to the poor publicity before the game and the constant change of the start time, this game did not attract too many spectators to watch the game.

Of course, there is another very possible reason-the fans stayed up late last night to watch the World Cup semi-finals, and they may still be catching up on sleep at this moment.

Obviously, the players of the Qingdao team also stayed up late last night to watch the semi-final match between Sweden and Ukraine. After arriving at the stadium, the players of the Qingdao team kept chatting about last night's game while preparing for the game.

"Oh, let me go! Ibrahimovic's feet smelled so bad last night!"

"That's right! You can't get in such a good opportunity in front of the door!"

"Isn't Shevchenko the same! Many opportunities have been wasted."

"It's a pity that I believed that the two teams would score a big score last night, and it turned out! Damn it, I lost tens of thousands."

"Without you, I would have lost [-] to [-] yuan in this World Cup."

"Wow! Local tyrants, how big is it to play? Are you not afraid of living without money?"

……

Diego, who is not far away from these players, also listens to, sees, and remembers the exchanges of these players.

Of course, these players did not have the familiar faces that Diego looked at in the Super League in later generations.

Obviously, these players with unprofessional attitudes were eliminated by fierce competition soon after, and they were not able to continue their careers in the Chinese Super League.

Compared with the players of the Qingdao team, who stayed up late to watch the game when there was still a game to be played the next day, the young players of Benfica still maintained a very basic professional attitude-everyone was exhausted with jet lag last night I fell asleep early, and no one paid attention to the game between Sweden and Ukraine.

Of course, after waking up, everyone watched the results of the game and the highlights of the game immediately.

Similarly, the young people of Benfica will also communicate about this game, but the content of their communication has nothing to do with betting.

"Last night's game seemed quite dull?"

"I read the news, Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored a penalty and Sweden went to the final."

"My God! Incredible! 'Vikings' made it to the final of the World Cup!"

"But the other team, either Spain or England, the Swedes can't win the championship."

"I also think that both Spain and England are too strong... Ah! As a member of the Iberian Peninsula, I still hope that Spain will win tomorrow night and then win the first Hercules Cup in their history."

Diego, who watched the whole game in the Real Ball King system last night, also participated in the topics of his teammates with great interest.

"Ibrahimovic and Shevchenko actually played well last night! It's just that their footwork was a bit off, otherwise the score would have been ruined."

The teammates were quite surprised: "Oh? Diego, you stayed up late watching the live broadcast of the game?"

"He didn't. He went to bed early last night, and he was asleep before 23:[-]..."

David Louis shook his head helplessly: "I haven't adjusted my jet lag yet, and I didn't fall asleep until 1 am last night."

Diego played his serious nonsense skills, and said with a smile: "Hey! I watched the recording and broadcasting of the game in the morning while I was doing 'big things in life'."

"Wow! Here in China, many websites cannot be logged in, but you can actually watch the recording!"

"That is!"

Diego showed a mysterious smile: "After all, I am someone who knows how to 'over the wall'. Hehe!"

……

After half an hour of simple warm-up activities, this friendly match will soon begin.

Before the game, the organizer also held a pre-stage event, inviting a singer who didn't know how many lines to sing to warm up the stage.

Anyway, Diego didn't know the singer, and he hadn't even heard the so-called "original song" she sang.

In this game, Fernando Santos still showed the sincerity he deserved - Diego and David Luiz who joined the team in the new season, and the team's regular main players Moreto, Beto and Ahmet last season. Siss and Nelson appeared in the starting lineup, supplemented by five young players who were transferred from the echelon to form the starting lineup for this game.

Although he was disgusted by Fernando Santos because of his poor footwork, as the main goalkeeper of last season, Moreto still wore the captain's armband for this game.

After all, Moreto is one of the longest-serving players in this young Benfica training team, and the captain's armband should be worn on his arm.

As for Yin Shengtie, as a player under investigation by Benfica, Yu Dabao naturally occupied a starting position in this game.

According to yesterday's exchange, Diego also knows that Yu Dabao will play a full 90 minutes in this game so that he can be more carefully inspected by Fernando Santos and his coaching staff.

In Yin Shengtie's starting list, Diego also saw several familiar names.

Zheng Long, Qin Sheng, Zou Zheng, Liu Jian!
Diego's impression of these four players is unified: Evergrande national team players!

Regarding the strength of these four players in later generations, Diego still quite agrees.

Zheng Long is the first Chinese player to score in the Club World Cup, known as "crooked neck".

Qin Sheng is both virtuous and artistic. People in the world call him "Professor Qin". He is an expert in linguistics. He used various languages ​​to quarrel with the players and coaches of Seoul FC in the AFC Champions League final. He used up the last few minutes to ensure that Evergrande won the championship. .

Zou Zheng is a left back who can attack and defend well. Afterwards, he put in an assist and the accuracy of crossing from the side is quite high. But at this moment, Zou Zheng has not played left back. He is placed in the front midfielder position. .

Liu Jian is a versatile player in the backcourt of the national team. He can play as a defensive midfielder, a central defender, or a full-back.

However, Diego doesn't know how much potential these four players who are still in the Qingdao team's echelon can have at the age of 20.

Perhaps, they can show a certain potential, and Fernando Santos on the coaching bench will also be interested in them?

"Beep..."

With the whistle of the referee, this friendly match officially began!
However, Tiantai Stadium has no atmosphere of competition at all.

Across a track and field track, the Benfica players couldn't even feel the emotions of the audience in the stands. In addition, the audience in this game was at most 1 people.

This deserted atmosphere is not even as good as a Portuguese League match.
