Although it is already winter in New Zealand in the days approaching July, it is not so cold when it is not raining.Yue Yihuang would go out for a long-distance run at a variable speed in the morning, and take a deep breath of the pure air there.Then, when the World Cup starts again, he will sit in front of the TV and watch the games.

Of course, sometimes he would go to a small bar in a nearby town and sit there and watch the game.

But people here don't seem to care about football that much, and no one recognizes Yue Yihuang.

Time passed so quickly.Portugal eliminated Iran, France eliminated the United States, Germany eliminated Romania, Spain eliminated Denmark...

The Italian team, which was favored by many parties before the start of the World Cup, really went all the way, eliminating all powerful enemies from all walks of life.As the World Cup gradually progressed to the second half, the competition became more and more intensive.

Among them, the game from the quarter-finals to the semi-finals is the most difficult and dangerous.

In the quarter-finals, Italy met the extremely tenacious Chilean team and played for 120 minutes, but after only four days of rest, they faced the fierce Portuguese team that defeated the Spanish team.

But after that, a more dramatic situation appeared in this World Cup in the United States.

In the semi-finals, the Italian team defeated the German team, and the Brazilian team defeated the Argentine team, which is also from South America. The two teams that met in the World Cup final 32 years ago are staged in the United States today. A battle of reincarnation.

Just 32 years ago, in the 1994 World Cup in the United States, the Italian team and the Brazilian team also met in the final final.

And what is even more amazing is that the No. [-] of the Italian team at that time and the No. [-] of the current Italian team both have the same name-Baggio.

32 years later, it is still Italy and Brazil, still in the United States, and still in the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles. This kind of reincarnation brings endless sighs of emotion.

This is true for the fans, but it is even more true for the players who will play in the championship and runner-up finals of this World Cup.

This time, it was the Phantom Child's turn to call his lover the night before the game.

It was [-]:[-] p.m. LA time, evening in New Zealand.

Yingfeng went to the beach, sat on the reef and called Francisco, so that the lover who was far away in Los Angeles could hear the sound of the tide from New Zealand.

When Prince Turin heard such a peaceful and serene voice reaching his ears together with his lover's voice, he also felt a rare peace in the past few days.

"Are you still used to living there? Is there anything not fully prepared? Have you caught a cold?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that he, who urgently needed to be comforted by the other party, couldn't say a word related to himself.In his heart, it was actually full of the other party.

Yue Yihuang: "If tomorrow's game is unlucky and goes to a penalty shootout, what will you do?"

Francisco: "Are you asking me what kind of penalty I'm going to score baby?"

"Probably." Yue Yihuang, who said this answer, couldn't hide a smile in his voice.

Francisco: "So, to pay tribute to you, how about I take a high arcing penalty?"

Yue Yihuang: "Are you kidding Sisko?"

Francisco: "Of course not. I know this kind of ball is likely to be kicked away if it is not kicked well. But without a world-class player who kicks away penalties in major games, his career is incomplete. And , What if I score? What are you going to do?"

Yue Yihuang: "What do you want me to do?"

Francisco: "How about sitting on me and taking the initiative?"

Yue Yihuang: "I think... it's better for you to complete your career."

It was clearly just the two people teasing and relaxing each other the night before the game, but they never thought that it would actually become a reality in the World Cup championship and runner-up battle the next day.

In this World Cup championship and runner-up final that attracted worldwide attention, the Italian team and the Brazilian team first drew 10:2 in 2 minutes of the game, and then neither team succeeded in 30 minutes of overtime. Create goals.

Therefore, the penalty shootout between the Italian team and the Brazilian team was once again staged in the Rose Bowl Stadium in Los Angeles.

Even the person who created the penalty shootout has said in public that he really regrets it, because this competition system is too cruel.But it deserves to be the most popular part of the football competition that makes the fans' adrenaline secretion very high.

By convention, the two teams participating in the penalty shootout will first send the player among them who is most likely to score the goal to complete the first penalty.It was Francisco who was sent by the Italian team.However, this player who has always made the head coach extremely reassuring stood in a daze at such a critical moment 12 yards away from the goal.When the live camera gave him a close-up of his face, all the Italian fans were shocked.But just when his heartbeat was accelerating rapidly, Francisco, who had already recovered, had already played the ball.

That was unbelievable...a high curveball.

Even Francisco himself was a little taken aback when the ball scraped the post and crashed into the net.But he really did succeed.Obviously, this goal brought great shock to the players present, whether it was the players of the Brazilian team or the Italian team.The head coach of the Italian team had already stood up excitedly and cursed when he saw Francisco kick that high-altitude arc kick, but he stopped his voice immediately after seeing the goal scored, with a face on his face. I don't know if the contradictory expression is love for this player or scolding.

The brutal penalty shootout is still going on, and it seems that some mysterious and terrifying energy is leading this penalty shootout to the pattern 32 years ago.Eyes were increasingly on Mattia Baggio as yet another Italian scored from the penalty spot.Even Roberto Baggio, who was 59 years old at the time, was the same.

32 years ago, he led the ill-fated Italian team to come out of life and death again and again, and stepped forward several times when the team was about to be eliminated to save the situation, leading the team like a hero Sprinted to the penalty shootout of the championship and runner-up finals.But he kicked a penalty kick at the last moment, thus changing his identity from a hero to a sinner.

It was his melancholy back that made this stadium with a beautiful name, and made the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles remembered by countless fans.

Before the start of the game, the head coach suggested to Mattia that he should be excluded from the penalty shootout.Because everyone will know how huge the pressure on Mattia will be if the penalty shootout is really staged again.What he bears will not only be the Hercules Cup of this Italian team, but also the achievement of his personal honor, but the lingering persistence in the hearts of two generations.

But Mattia turned down the offer.He said that if he really quit this time, he would cause eternal pain to the Baggio family.

So, will Mattia Baggio recreate his father's nightmare in this stadium, or complete what his father wanted to accomplish but couldn't?

With the whole world watching, Mattia, who was destined to retire from the national team after this World Cup, stepped forward from the line of Italian players and stood twelve yards in front of the goal.

When he kicked that shot with almost perfect speed, power and angle, the Rose Bowl stadium erupted into tears of joy...

…………

That night was a night of carnival in Italy and a night of loneliness in Brazil.

The Italians who traveled thousands of miles to the United States to support the Italian team finally reveled all night, but Francisco left the city that was destined to be crazy for him tonight after applying with the team that night.He even packed his luggage early in the morning, and left in a hurry after returning to the hotel without even showing his face at the celebration banquet.

Because there is such a person waiting for him in New Zealand.He was so anxious to catch the last direct flight to New Zealand tonight.Miss this one, and he won't be able to set off to where his lover is now until tomorrow night.

But his heart has already flown far away to that place where it would take thirteen hours even by direct flight.

He will fly halfway around the world for the one he loves tonight.

When Yue Yihuang received the news that the other party had arrived at the boarding gate and returned the next morning, he was really shocked.But in the end he just told Francisco:

"Then, when you come out of the airport tomorrow, you will definitely be able to see me." After saying this, Yingfeng, who has never been very good at expressing his emotions, said another sentence before hanging up the phone: "I love you!" you."

That obviously stunned Prince Turin for a moment, and then he smiled and said, "I love you too, baby."

After thirteen hours of flight time, Francisco finally arrived at the airport in New Zealand and exited the international arrivals exit after clearing immigration and collecting his luggage.

How amazing that he actually recognized his lover in the crowd at a glance.And from the moment he saw the other person, his eyes couldn't stop chasing that person.

Since both of them are well-known players in the world at any rate, the two cannot kiss and hug after meeting.Not even after reaching the parking lot.So Francisco just looked at the other party like this, with a very explicit obsession, no matter what Yingfeng said, he always looked at the other party so deeply.That kind of gaze made Yingfeng feel at a loss.

Until the two arrived at the house that Francisco had carefully purchased and decorated, Yue Yihuang's hand holding the password trembled uncontrollably.Almost when the door was opened and then closed, he was pressed against the wall by Francisco, bit his lip, and kissed him deeply and rudely.

The clothes on his body were almost torn by the prince of Turin who had longed for him for a long time. Whether it was the heavy panting sound or the eager kiss that almost swallowed him whole, Yingfeng was completely unable to resist.Prince Turin frantically left hickey marks on his lover, and even tore up Yingfeng's pants in the corridor.

"Xi, Sisko...?" The phantom son called out the other party's name, and was pinched and kissed the other party again.

"Honey, let's have sex first, and everything else can come after this."

As he spoke, Francisco, who was panting heavily, pressed his face against Yue Yihuang's neck, and took a deep breath of the other party's breath.
