[Football] Crown of Thorns

Following the notice from the staff, the Portuguese players got up one after another and opened the door of the locker room, and the noise came to their ears.

The music coming out of the speakers above the channel is the theme song of the 2012 European Cup "WesayEuro" sung by Oceana. This is a Lassi electronic music similar to light music, but not like the general theme The explosive style of the song, but relatively soothing...

Ronaldo is at the front of the team - at club he always likes to be at the bottom of the team, but in the national team he is the captain so he has to be at the top, right next to German captain Lahm .

In view of the fact that there are many players who know each other in the two teams, after meeting in the tunnel, the players who both sides recognized started to greet each other and hug each other. The atmosphere before the game was quite harmonious.

In the starting lineup of the German team, Gama was most familiar with Hummels. This tall German stood in front of Gama, making Gama, who is already 1.85 meters tall, suddenly feel that the light above his head is dim down.

"Get out of the way!"

It is said that the Germans are rigorous and upright, take a look at you, how rigorous and upright is the person he kisses right and left?

Jia Ma wiped his face with his sleeve with a look of disgust, "I drool all over my face, it's disgusting!"

"Pfft, Xiko, you kid always has such a poisonous mouth."

Hummels smiled, reached out and rubbed Jia Ma's short hair deliberately, "Why did you cut your hair again, it's not cute at all so short."

"Cute, you are so cute."

Gama rolled his eyes wide.

"Shiko," Hummels suddenly yelled with a serious face, "I won't release water during the game."

"Go away, who will let you release the water."

Gama rolled his big eyes again.

After chatting, Gama glanced at the front of the team and saw his captain's short paws touching a German's head...

I'm going to inform the captain, he climbed the wall...

Gama shook his head with a bad idea in his mind—why did he get poisoned, why did he think of such a friendly scene in that way~

Coughing twice speechlessly, Jia Ma heard the bastard next to him lower his head and ask him in concern, "Have you caught a cold?"

"You just have a cold."

Jia Ma pushed Hummels angrily, "Go back to your place."

"Xiko, this is a foul move."

After making fun of Hummels, he swished two steps back to his teammates.

I rely on!

Jia Ma cursed in a low voice, you bastard, I will clean up when I go back... After a while, Jia Ma froze and went back, can he go back there?

"Hello!!"

Turning back, Veloso was calling him.

Gama groaned dully before realizing it. He jumped on the spot twice, with a smile on his face, "Miguel, you have to work hard in today's competition!"

"Hehe, you should take back your heart first!"

Veloso smiled.

Walking out of the player tunnel, looking up at the sky above the stadium, the scenery of Lviv Stadium in Ukraine after the rain is so beautiful, the blue sky and the arc sky above the stadium seem to be connected in a line, the clarity makes people feel chilled. The fascinating and seductive feeling has a sense of "unity between man and nature" and the vastness of the world.

"It's so beautiful!"

Gama blurted out.

"Yes, it's really beautiful."

Veloso nodded.

The captains of the two teams were exchanging team flags, and Gama watched the scene over there.

The white clothes of the Germans and the red of the Portuguese are eye-catching and harmonious on the green grass.

On the grass after the rain, there is still some dew, so the air here is not too hot, but the short sleeves of the German captain met the long sleeves of the Portuguese captain, and the two people, one tall and one short, did not lose the wind in the slightest. One is calm and the other is passionate, but they all have the sense of existence that I am alone among thousands of people.

"As expected of the captain!"

Gama muttered.

"what?"

Veloso, with his arm on Gamal's shoulder, asked in Gamal's ear.

"I think the captains of the national team have their own unique aura. No matter where we are, we can only see them at a glance."

"Hey Xiko, it looks like you've read a lot!"

Veloso touched Gama's head with his paw, joking.

"Get lost, do you think I'm as ignorant as you are!"

Gama slapped Veloso's hand with a slap—Master, I have also read "Flick off your clothes, hide your name and hide your name", believe it or not, I can recite all the poems, cut, it's a pity that you are a foreigner Can't understand!

"...Judging from the expressions of the players on both sides, the players looked very relaxed..."

"There are really many acquaintances between the players on both sides. In this game, there are five players from Real Madrid in the starting lineups of both sides..."

"Let me read the starting lineups of the two sides. The German team was drawn for home: No. 1 Neuer, No. 20 Boateng, No. 5 Hummels, No. 14 Badstuber, No. 16 Lahm (Captain), No. 6 Khedira, No. 7 Schweinsteiger, No. 13 Muller, No. 8 Ozil, No. 10 Podolski, No. 23 Gomez, from the list they are one The lineup of 4231..."

"Portugal Team: No. 12 Patricio, No. 21 Pereira, No. 3-Pepe, No. 4 Veloso, No. 5 Coentrao, No. 10 Gama, No. 16 Meireles, No. 8 Mu Tinho, No. 17 Nani, No. 23 Postiga, No. 7 C Ronaldo, the Portuguese is a 433 lineup..."

"The game is about to start, players from both sides are already standing on the field..."

"There's still some time, let's tell some interesting stories!"

"Okay, let me talk about the Portuguese captain Ronaldo first, you see that other players in the Portuguese national team usually wear short-sleeved jerseys in games, but Ronaldo always plays in long-sleeved jerseys. Ronaldo was the only player in the Portuguese team to wear a long-sleeved jersey."

"Haha, I heard that Gama admires Ronaldo very much, so not only the sneakers on his feet were given by Ronaldo, but he also imitated Ronaldo's habits in wearing jerseys~~~"

"Based on this, Gama is very likely to transfer to Real Madrid in the future~~"

The host in the broadcast room above the field was talking nonsense.

Fortunately, Gama on the field didn’t hear their nonsense, otherwise he would definitely spit——Your uncle, I only wear long sleeves to prevent falling and getting injured. It’s not to imitate the captain. As for the sneakers, I was in the national team before During the game, I wore the shoes given by the captain, but today I wore custom-made sneakers sent to me by Nike. I don’t want to wear a pair of pink colors like the captain. Although I like the captain, I’m not. Girl Luo...uh, did it reveal what Jia Ma recently saw on the Tianchao Network?

On the court, the referee, who looked at his watch, blew the opening whistle, and the game began.

The first kick-off is the German team.

After the kick-off in the center circle, the German made a few passes in a small area first. Boateng got the ball after a few inversions and then made a pass from the right. The football went straight to the point in front of the penalty area. Gomez grabbed a point in front of the goal and directly shook his head to hit the goal.

Fortunately, this sudden attack was taken by Portuguese goalkeeper Patricio with both hands and the ball was confiscated.

In the Lviv Arena, which can accommodate more than 5000 people, there were many sighs of disappointment. In this match between Germany and Portugal, there were more than 1.7 German fans and only about 4000 Portuguese fans. People were present, so in terms of the atmosphere on the scene, the Portuguese were far behind in the confrontation between the fans.

Patricio threw the football, Veloso looked at the situation ahead after receiving the ball, and after a little control, he passed the ball to Pereira on the other side.

After receiving the ball, Pereira swung a diagonal pass over the opponent who stepped forward to press.

After Gama received the ball, he made a long pass to the frontcourt, and Nani galloped forward, rushing all the way.

Nani passed the ball, Postiga responded... Lahm made a replacement and directly tackled the ball, and the ball flew out of the baseline.

Portugal's corner kick.

Although the opening was only 3 minutes, both sides had an offensive momentum, but apart from the fans of the opposing sides, the other fans at the scene did not seem to like the Portuguese team very much. When the Portuguese team was about to take a corner kick, some fans threw debris into the field, causing Gama and Veloso, standing at the corner flag, had to protest to the referee, which halted the game for a moment.

After protesting to the referee, Gama and Veloso stood in the corner flag area. Gama, who was just about to serve, felt something was wrong and jumped aside. It turned out that another ball of paper was thrown from the stands and hit him. Where I stood just now.

"What's the situation now?"

"In the 3rd minute of the first half, the Portuguese team got a corner kick on the right, hey, what's going on?"

In the zoomed-in footage of the live broadcast, it can be clearly seen that Gamma Veloso, who was standing in the corner flag area, was attacked by a "paper ball rain". Helplessly shrugged and complained to the referee frequently, but with little effect, the paper balls in the stands still flew past both sides of them and kept hitting near the two of them.

Seeing that the protest had no effect, Veloso and Gama looked at each other helplessly, then bent down to clean up the paper balls at their feet, Gama made a gesture and kicked the ball hastily.

"This situation is too inappropriate..."

"Yes, the on-site referee also did nothing..."

"The game has started again..."

The Germans were on the ball, their pace was unhurried and they seemed in no rush to attack.

The Portuguese, who was in a defensive state, just followed the footsteps of the Germans and continued to shift, and he was also not eager to step forward to steal.

Until the 9th minute, Muller made a low pass from the right, and Podolski made a strong low shot, and the ball was obtained by Patricio.

"...Before the game, it was said that this game is the focus of Group B, but judging from the current progress of the game, it seems that it is not as exciting and intense as the fans imagined..."

"Yes, the game has progressed to the 11th minute. Judging from the situation, both sides have played conservatively. So far, the German team has shot twice and the Portuguese team has only one shot. Such sporadic shooting scenes are not good for each other. There was no threat."

"Well, I think this is because the two teams are constantly testing each other, because they have scruples about their opponents, so no one dares to go too far, for fear of making a mistake and being seized by the opponent..."

“Chance for the Portuguese!”

The host's voice suddenly rose.

On the court, Gama suddenly steals the ball. After grabbing the ball, Gama passes the ball to the wing, and Ronaldo catches the ball and breaks through.

The German defense double-teamed in the past, and Ronaldo passed the ball to the center after making a few fake moves.

It was Postiga again, and he rushed towards the football point, while German goalkeeper Neuer also abandoned the goal and went straight to the football.

The football landed and bounced, Neuer swept the ball with his foot, and Postiga slipped and tackled.

Postiga tackled Neuer, who fell to the ground with his ankles in his arms.

The whistle sounded.

The referee ran over and showed Postiga the first yellow card of the game.

Ronaldo ran over to appeal to the referee, but the referee ignored Ronaldo's appeal and waved his hands repeatedly to signal him to go away.

The referee's reaction made Ronaldo a little dissatisfied. He followed the referee with a look of wanting to continue to say something, and Gama, who ran over, quickly pulled him away.

"Please Captain, please return to your seat!"

Jia Ma was very helpless - his captain was obviously not a bad guy, but he was handsome or had a mocking face, no wonder he was always blackmailed, and his emoji was not good!

In the live broadcast, the hosts and guests from all walks of life laughed.

"Ronaldo has matured a lot in the past two years. Since Figo and others withdrew from the national team, he has shouldered heavy responsibilities and is not as easy to be provoked as before. However, he is the captain haha..."

"So far, there are not too many bright spots in the game. It is not as eye-catching as Ronaldo's hairstyle. His hairstyle is probably sprayed with half a bottle of hairspray..."

"Speaking of which, although the game is not very good-looking, there are quite a few things to watch in the stands."

"For example..."

"Real Madrid's coach Mourinho is sitting in the stands, he is playing with his mobile phone with a relaxed face, haha ​​he beckoned to our camera~~"

"Trum? Ozil, the older brother of Germany's midfielder Ozil, is also in the stands. The audience can observe to see if he looks alike to his younger brother~~"
