Chapter 647: The Strong Hong Kong Island Team

On June 6, the second round of Group C of the World Cup group stage.

The first match to start was between Germany and Bolivia. This team, which had been away from the World Cup for many years, became the mascot of Group C as predicted by the media.

The German team also showed the dominance in this game, just as everyone expected.

4:0, the German tank crushed Bolivia.

After losing 0-1 to Spain in the first round, Bolivia was crushed by Germany in the second round and became the first team to be eliminated in this World Cup.

So the topic was brought up again by the media: Is the Hong Kong team too strong?

Don’t worry about whether you are strong or just bloated, because the answer will be revealed soon.

Because of the strong performance of the Hong Kong Island team in the first game, this match against Spain attracted the attention of countless fans around the world and was called the focus of this round.

Especially Spain, although they won the first round, if they lose this game their road to promotion will be extremely difficult.

Because they will face the powerful Germany in the last round, while Hong Kong Island will face Bolivia, which is recognized as the weakest team in the group.

In order to qualify as the group leader, the German team will definitely go all out in the last round and rely on goal difference to win the group top spot.

But there is also good news, that is, both teams can accept a draw.

The Hong Kong Island team drew twice and will face Bolivia in the last round. Spain won one and drew one, so they have many options in the last round against the powerful Germany.

With 16 teams advancing from the 24 teams, even if Spain loses to Germany, four points will basically be enough.

Therefore, whether both teams gave their all or tacitly conserved their energy was a point of discussion among the global media before the game.

“Okay, judging from the starting lineups of the two teams we got, neither the Hong Kong Island team nor the Spanish team chose to change their starters.

At the start of the game, the Spanish team took the lead in kicking off, but did not rush forward, instead passing the ball to the team's organizing core Guardiola.

This is also one of the biggest highlights of the two teams today, the contest between Wang Xing of Hong Kong Island team and Guardiola of Spain, two organizing masters who have proven themselves in European football.

What’s interesting is that the two are similar in many ways. They both have a calm mind and a broad vision, outstanding imagination, and their passes are concealed and extremely penetrating.

However, the two do not seem to be very good at physical confrontation, and Wang Xing is even thinner than Guardiola."

“Being physically weak doesn’t mean they can’t become top stars, and at their age they can still get better through training.

I heard that after the first game, Oxford United manager Ferguson publicly expressed his admiration for the Hong Kong player and wanted to bring him to Roche Oxford Stadium.

In addition, Oxford United has two veteran players from Hong Kong Island, which makes the transfer of this rising star full of variables."

The commentator on TV talked endlessly about the players of the two teams, which made the many fans sitting in front of the TV very jealous.

"I'm so envious. I'm drooling when I see the players of the Hong Kong Island team."

"It's nothing to be envious of. Many of their players are naturalized, but we can't."

"I don't agree with what you said. Naturalization is naturalization, but haven't local players like Wang Xing and He Xinyu become famous stars? We are all yellow people. If a small island like Hong Kong can cultivate so many talented players, there is no reason why we can't cultivate the same with such a large population."

"We can look forward to it. I think our players will become stronger and stronger and become a world-class team in the future."

All I can say is that today's football fans are still quite naive and have not been severely beaten by various events.

They don’t know that this group of players might be the strongest players they will ever see in their lifetime, and they will have to endure the reality of conceding seven goals in the future.

The 2002 World Cup? Luo Nianzhong seriously doubts whether the Rabbits will have a trip to the World Cup with the current Hong Kong Island team.

But it doesn’t matter if there is none, because the higher the peak you reach, the greater the disappointment.

As they chatted and drank San Miguel beer, the situation on the field suddenly changed.

Originally, the two teams were controlling the tempo, making many fans think that this game might be a tacit match, but Spain suddenly sped up.

The ball was passed back in the team's backcourt and came to Guardiola's feet. Facing the ball, Guardiola did not pass it back this time. Instead, he suddenly made a long pass to find Enrique who ran into the open space.

It can only be said that the Hong Kong Island team's defense made a big mistake, as they lost focus in the previous nearly 30 minutes.

Facing Enrique's shot that was aimed away from He Yuxin, Hong Kong Island team's goalkeeper Campos judged the direction correctly, but his height became a fatal flaw.

"The ball went in. In the 29th minute of the game, the Spanish team suddenly sped up and caught the Hong Kong Island team off guard.

Campos tried his best, but Enrique's shot was at too tricky an angle and went straight into the upper right corner of the goal, hitting the frame.

We can see that Campos was very dissatisfied with the Hong Kong Island team's defense. The goal was scored because the two central defenders failed to rush in in time, giving Enrique too much time to adjust.

The moment Enrique received the ball, Hong Kong Island's defensive midfielder He Yuxin rushed over, but after Enrique dribbled past him, the two central defenders of Hong Kong Island did not come up to fill in, which was a huge mistake."

In a private room at Chicago Soldier Field, seeing Spain suddenly break the balance, Luo Laosi, the sports idiot of the Luo family, started to complain.

"The Spanish team is so shameless. Didn't they say it was a tacit agreement? Why did they suddenly attack?"

Luo Nianzhong on the side looked a little embarrassed, because this game was probably a tacit agreement or something he had just said not long ago.

Because Luo Laosi always said that this game was boring and not as exciting as the first one, Luo Nianzhong told her based on his meager football experience that this game would most likely end in a 0-0 draw. But she didn't expect to be slapped in the face so quickly.

Luo Laowu, who was holding her arm, obviously understood better. He comforted his fourth sister and said, "We guessed the tacit agreement. They didn't tell you before the game. Maybe the slow pace is their strategy. They just want to catch you off guard.

But it’s okay this way, the next game will be more interesting, and at least the scene will be intense regardless of winning or losing."

Just as Luo Laowu said, after the restart, the Hong Kong Island team obviously sped up and pressed forward.

In the following period, although the Hong Kong Island team had many good opportunities, they failed to score a goal.

The Spanish team also had two excellent counterattacks, one of which was disrupted by He Yuxin, and the other was saved by Campos' heroic save.

After the midfield adjustment, the Hong Kong Island team immediately pressed forward with all their might, and for a moment the Spanish team's defense was under pressure and could hardly breathe.

"Hong Kong Island team had a corner kick opportunity, Faustino headed the ball, but it hit the post and bounced out.

Carlos got the ball and passed it to Wang Xing at the front of the penalty area, who shot.

The ball went in, Hank helped the Hong Kong Island team tie the score, and now the two teams are back on the same starting line.

Oh my God, this is the charm of a football master. The Spanish defensive players thought that Wang Xing was going to shoot, so they jumped up to block it.

But no one expected that Wang Xing would miss the ball, and Hank's powerful shot from the side left the Spanish goalkeeper helpless.

Just like what I said before the game, the two midfield masters played to their strengths in this game, and these two goals are closely related to them."

The subsequent game was completely different from the first thirty minutes of the first half and turned into an offensive battle.

Both sides had many shooting opportunities, but neither side was able to score again.

The 1-1 tie lasted until the end of the game, and everyone could accept this score.

However, the Hong Kong Island team, which had fought head-to-head against Germany and Spain without losing, let fans and media around the world know that the last game was definitely not a flash in the pan. No wonder they can dominate Asia and be a level above other countries.
