85. The Unexpected List
On August 13, the Olympic semi-finals between the Chinese men's basketball team and the Spanish men's basketball team will officially start. And as the first two semi-finals game, this game must have attracted much attention.
However, since the news of Wu Dawei's absence due to injury was revealed, the viewing of this game was not very optimistic in most people. Basically, everyone would agree that this would become a one-sided massacre.
Perhaps the Chinese men's basketball team will play very tenaciously in the game, but the huge gap in strength will make the Chinese men's basketball team unable to get any benefits in this game.
The Spanish men's basketball team led by Paul Gasol is obviously not something that a Chinese team without Wu Dawei can compete with. Therefore, people naturally don't have too many differences in their dissatisfaction.
Perhaps on this day, the only one who still has hope for the Chinese men's basketball team is the only Chinese fans. After all, this is a basketball team directly from their own country. No matter how severe and difficult the situation is, Chinese fans will definitely support him unconditionally.
There is no doubt about this!
"Sergi, you look very relaxed. The semi-finals are about to start, don't you feel nervous at all?"
When the Spanish men's basketball players came to the locker room in the stadium to change their clothes, the media also allowed them to be in for a few minutes. Marca's reporter ** Ross soon found the forward player of the Spanish men's basketball player Sergi Ibaka, who was "sharing the same hatred" with him.
His inquiry made Ibaka laugh, then he nodded and said, "Yes, I really don't feel any pressure right now. I think this is a good sign, which will be very helpful for our game tonight!"
Obviously, Ibaka was also influenced by the remarks that were criticized by domestic and foreign fans for taking advantage of the situation. Now when he is interviewed, he does not mention any words about Wu Dawei, but the smile on his face, through the big screen on the scene, made the Chinese fans who came to the basketball hall tonight grit their teeth!
Although Sergi Ibaka no longer mentioned it, fans would not forget what he once said so easily! So at this time, Chinese basketball fans saw Sergi Ibaka's relaxed expression at this moment, as if they saw this guy laughing at him.
All the expressions on this face are now very disgusting, but at this time, Chinese fans have no other way except to feel indignant about this. Because everyone knows that when the game begins, the Chinese men's basketball team without Wu Dawei is likely to be completely ravaged by the Spanish on the basketball court.
Sergi Ibaka was not wrong. Indeed, this game should not be too difficult for Espanyol. However, Chinese fans are unwilling to give in! They are unwilling to lose this originally extremely promising game.
Wu Dawei's injury to retreat from the right and wrong crime, but it is precisely because of this that Chinese fans feel unwilling to accept it!
Although everyone knows that they must accept such a reality, everyone cannot be calm and balanced in their hearts!
After all, they were actually within reach of victory. And suddenly such hope was shattered, and naturally, everyone was very depressed. Sergi Ibaka once said such an angry word, and his smile at this moment naturally made people feel very unhappy!
Even if he tells the truth, it will still make Chinese fans feel extremely bored!
This game where most people almost knew the result before the game started, undoubtedly made the Chinese fans sad. Although they still came to the basketball hall to cheer for the team, everyone knew a little in their hearts that the Chinese men's basketball team was in danger in this game. Maybe even there would be no auspiciousness...
The interview Sergi Ibaka was just a small part of the interviews about the Spanish players in the locker room played on the big screen. Soon, in the blank period before the game began, in order to give some attention to the fans who had already arrived in the stadium, in addition to the cheerleader performance, there were reports of these interviews.
When Sergi Ibaka's interview scene appeared on the large ceiling screen above the stadium, huge booed by Chinese basketball fans in the stadium. Such booed expresses the dissatisfaction and resentment of Chinese fans towards Sergi Ibaka, but at the same time, it also made the fans of the Spanish team who came to the basketball hall tonight's game also feel unhappy.
No matter who sees the other party’s fans booing their own players, they will feel unhappy. So soon, the game has not started yet, but the verbal battle between the fans between the two sides is the first to start...
This is definitely a strange scene in the history of Olympic basketball games, but as long as you think about the very tense relationship between the two sides before the start of this game, everyone will feel relieved.
After all, before this, Chinese media and Spanish media started a war on the media; and Chinese fans also had a war of words with Spanish fans on major forums before this day.
The relationship between the two sides has become so stale that you either die or I die, so naturally I don’t like anyone. And Chinese fans can only take advantage of the game before the game starts and clamor with the Spaniard before the results of the game come out...
Because without Wu Dawei, when the game ended, it was obvious that the Spanish fans who became the winner would definitely have the upper hand, and they would use this to criticize and mock the Chinese fans.
At that time, Chinese fans would have no reason, capital and confidence to argue with Spanish fans. After all, they would become winners by then, and no matter how much the losers argued, they would only make their words seem pale and powerless.
So we can only take advantage of the best game before the game starts... This is indeed a bit sad, and it will definitely make people feel extremely frustrated. But there is no way, who told us to catch up!?
Although we can basically predict the situation after the game, it happened a few hours later. Now facing the aggressive Spanish fans, it is naturally impossible for Chinese fans to show weakness so easily!
The fierce quarrels and scoldings between the two sides in the stadium instantly made the security guards of the stadium who maintained the order of the game tonight extremely nervous. In the UK, there are many football hooligans, but basically all the British have never seen basketball hooligans.
So in the face of such a situation, the security guards naturally became extremely nervous in an instant! Although it seemed like they were just a quarrel, it might be possible to turn into a fight or even a group fight in the next second...
British security guards have seen this situation countless times on football fields across the UK.
So when the fans of both sides started arguing, they started to arrange troops with great experience, preparing for the pre-serve tragedy...
Fortunately, although the two sides refused to give in to each other, they did not really take action. After all, everyone's language was not understood. They cursed each other for a few words of English starting with f and s, and the rest of the things like fucking you and the uncle can't understand even half of them.
So there was no real fight. The entire martial arts in the fantasy was not really performed in the basketball hall tonight, but the atmosphere in the basketball hall was really tense.
After all, the conflict between the two sides has been considered a long-standing one, and tonight was just a general outbreak after the accumulation of conflicts!
But no matter how it breaks out, such a tit-for-tat contradiction will still produce a final winner. Although the game has not even officially started, it is undoubtedly the Spaniard who has the upper hand now.
Because most people think that the Spanish team is sure to win the game tonight, Spanish basketball fans also seem to be more confident in their clamor with Chinese fans.
Obviously, Chinese fans cannot be as confident as Espanyol. After all, the news of Wu Dawei's injury and retreating makes everyone know what the Chinese men's basketball team looks like after losing Wu Dawei!
Although the Chinese men's basketball team's statement about whether Wu Dawei will participate in this game tonight is extremely vague, judging from previous media reports, it is obvious that the news that Wu Dawei's injury has worsened is not serious and groundless.
If Wu Dawei really had nothing to do, the Chinese men's basketball team would not be able to hide his injury problem like this. So even though Wu Dawei still appeared on the 12-man roster of the Chinese men's basketball team tonight's game, most people did not have much hope for it.
Until half an hour before the Olympic semi-finals between the Chinese men's basketball team and the Spanish men's basketball team began, that is, when the teams of both sides submitted the starting list for the game, the fans of both sides were quarreling extremely fiercely. At this moment, everyone unexpectedly saw a name they had never imagined before through the large ceiling screen above the stadium!
Wu Dawei appeared on the starting list of the Chinese men's basketball team and Spanish team tonight's game!
He will still be the starting third position of the Chinese men's basketball team in tonight's game! (To be continued...)
Chapter completed!
