Chapter 321: Facing the opponent Brazil wants to kill before

Since the beginning of this World Cup, England has always performed quite well. The two consecutive wins in the group stage laid the foundation for England to qualify. However, in the group stage, England scored four goals, three of which came from the midfield and the other from the defense line. The front line has not scored even one goal so far, which is a fact that is enough to criticize.

It's fine with Husky, but most fans basically know that this is a player whose tactical significance is greater than the goal. He has always been a player with quite a few goals, so there are not many people who expect him to destroy the city and defeat England in the World Cup. However, Irving is different. After Hiller retired, he was the well-deserved first striker in England. He failed to score a goal in two starts in the group stage, and Irving also suffered too much pressure.

It is precisely because of this that after this goal, England fans have made such a huge cheer to celebrate their golden boy’s return!

But this is what happens in the world. After one comes, good luck often comes.

After gaining a two-goal lead in the first half, England began to continue to recover the defensive counterattack tactics. At this time, Senegal was in a dilemma - two goals were behind, and it was impossible not to suppress the attack. However, because the attack was pressed, he had already lost two consecutive goals - can he still suppress the attack?

If it is an experienced team, they may be able to stabilize their emotions and continue to attack at this time. However, Senegal is not such a experienced team. They are a new team in the World Cup. It is the first time they enter the World Cup. The average age is not very old, and there are no experienced players to dominate the team... Even their head coach Mei Zu was unknown before the start of the World Cup. He did not become famous until he led the team to defeat the French national team. However, in terms of experience, he was definitely not as good as those top head coaches.

So in the face of this situation, even their head coach began to feel at a loss. The Senegalese players on the court were still fierce in offensive, but their spirit had long been lost.

England seemed easier on defense, and in the following games, they began to create opportunities on offense...

The weather was not on the side of Senegal. Before the game started, it was drizzling in the sky, and during the game, the rain began to fall heavier and heavier, which was naturally more beneficial to the defensive side and brought too much trouble to the offensive side.

Two minutes before the end of the first half, England once again expanded its lead.

This goal has nothing to do with Tiger - Miles, who assisted forward, threw the ball into the right sideline, and the opponent's defender headed the ball to clear the ball in Beckham's chest. Beckham pushed the middle at the front of the penalty area. Husky scored a curve ball with his right foot from 19 meters in front of the goal. The ball drilled into the net from Silva's armpit - a beautiful shot from the front of the penalty area!

"Damn, what a beautiful goal!" Tiger couldn't help but be stunned. Husky's shot just now was indeed quite beautiful, but the volley outside the penalty area made a beautiful arc ball, which made the opponent's goalkeeper Silva unable to react...

"Haha, I'm so lucky, Samir!"

"Yes, the opponent's goalkeeper made a mistake. He did a pretty job, Samir!"

The players from England rushed forward and celebrated with laughter. Husky was crying without tears - I was really not confused, this shot is the embodiment of my talent...

Whether it is a monstrous or a real Husky's shooting talent, in short, England has gained the advantage of three goals. With their current defensive ability, it is almost impossible for a team to steal this victory from them...

After the second half, Erikson replaced Scholes and Irving with Joe Cole and Fowler at the same time to prepare for the quarterfinals, but he was still careful. Neither Tiger nor Beckham had replaced it. This was a preparation to prevent the opponent from counterattacking. With both of them on the court, England's midfielder would have an advantage and would not have any big problems.

Eriksen was obviously a little too cautious - facing a three-to-zero score, Senegal was almost collapsed, their attack in the second half was even more unstructured, and the absence of the two main midfielders also made them less confident in counterattacking. England continued to deal with the opponent with the help of a solid defense. Tiger and Beckham controlled the midfield and spent the second half in a way that was not gorgeous but very safe.

In the 80th minute, Tiger was replaced by Sheringham, and the following time was calm. England defeated Senegal, the dark horse of this World Cup three-zero, becoming the second team to enter the quarterfinals, surpassing the results of the last World Cup!

This result made the English media proud. They naturally believed that England beat Senegal 3-0 and Senegal defeated France 1-0. If England meets France, they will be able to win four goals...

"It is their luck that France failed to qualify from the group. If they encounter England, they will be beaten into a sieve!"

The English reporters shouted loudly, completely forgetting how worried they had been that England would meet France in the quarterfinals and return home in the middle of the last World Cup...

However, at this time they won, and they are qualified to be so arrogant.

England's opponent in the quarterfinals will be the winner between the host *** and Türkiye.

*********************************************************

On June 16, Argentina defeated Denmark 2-1, and Bielsa finally made a change, allowing Batistuta and Crespo to play at the same time. It was the two scorers' goal each that helped Argentina defeat Denmark and enter the quarterfinals. Then Spain defeated Ireland four-three in the penalty shootout, and also entered the quarterfinals.

On June 17, Brazil took the lead with a controversial goal, and they eventually defeated Belgium two goals. In a Central and North American derby, the US national team also defeated Mexico 2-0 and reached the quarterfinals of the World Cup...

On June 18, the two hosts began to appear, relying on Yumi Te Davara's header from his teammate in the twelve minutes. Turkey defeated the *** national team and entered the quarterfinals. In another game, the South Korean national team used its physical fitness to run and the help of Colombian referee Morero who stared at the dead fish's eyes. The 2-1 golden ball defeated Italy and entered the quarterfinals...

"These guys are so shameless."

Even the English players couldn't help but sigh after watching that game. Although Italy lost the game, for England, there was a powerful opponent missing in the quarterfinals, the referee clearly had two sets of penalty standards in this game, and they all looked creepy.

"Even if the most relaxed penalty standard in the Premier League is, at least three Koreans will be directly shown red cards." Beckham said affirmatively.

His words resonated with other English players. Apart from Tiger, who had not been in the Premier League for many years, and the standards for the Premier League's penalty were very clear. Even if he was fighting for the fierce Premier League, many of the Korean team's actions would be severely punished. From any perspective, the ball that was blown away by Tomasi is a good ball.

"But these guys can really run. If they didn't run so much, even if they were taken care of by the referee, they wouldn't have a chance to win this game... We wouldn't have met them until the finals. With their strength, they wouldn't be able to become our opponents." Tiger said thoughtfully. This situation is of course beneficial to England. If they can reach the finals, they may face a team with relatively poor strength...

Of course, it is not easy to get out of this half-zone to enter the finals. Now, except for England, the other three teams in this half-zone are Brazil, Argentina and Turkey. England's next opponent is Turkey. If you can win, you will face the winner between Brazil and Argentina...

"It's best if we beat Türkiye easily, and then Brazil and Argentina played miserably, half of the main lineup was injured and half suspended, and then we easily defeated..." Husky said in his vision.

"You're really unpromising." Other English players began to collectively despise Husky, but they soon began to think about it - if this was true, it would be great...

No one expected that Husky's words would come true to some extent...

On June 21, the first semi-final kicked off in Shizuoka. Brazil and Argentina, two teams from South America, encountered on the court. Claudio Lopez's lightning counterattack gave Argentina the first record, but then became Ronaldinho's performance. He first disrupted Brazil's defense through his own breakthrough, assisted Rivaldo to equalize the score, and then gave Brazil a wonderful long-distance shot before the end of the first half. However, after the start of the second half, his unsatisfactory foul gave himself a yellow card, and Brazil began to retreat all players - three central defenders and two crazy robbers defended like iron barrels, leaving Argentina with no chance to score at all. In the end, he eliminated Argentina two-to-one and entered the semi-finals!

When the referee blew the whistle to the end of the game, the English players looked at each other - Brazil qualified, but lost Ronaldinho, one of the most eye-catching players in the World Cup! What is the difference between this and the scene that Husky longed for?

"Okay, our semi-final opponent has come out... But you have to be clear, that is, we are not able to enter the semi-finals yet! If you want to face Brazil, then defeat the opponent in front of us first!" Eriksen clapped his face and said loudly.

"I understand!" England's players shouted in unison.

*********************************************************

"Welcome to Osaka Nagai Stadium! Here is the last game of the World Cup quarterfinals! The other three teams in the semi-finals have already come out, among which Germany will play against South Korea, one of the hosts in the semi-finals, while Brazil will face the winner of this game - one of England and Turkey! In the quarterfinals of the European Cup two years ago, England and Turkey also encountered it. At that time, England swept Turkey four-zero, but this game will not be like this. Turkey's performance in this World Cup this time was quite outstanding. They had only lost one goal before, and England's performance in this World Cup was also quite outstanding. Argentina also lost at their feet...Their main lineup was not much loss, and the core of the midfielder Tiger Lee had scored three goals in the previous game. In this game, he will be the target of Turkish players' focus on defense..."

Tiger moved his body easily on the court, ignoring the Turkish players' almost murderous eyes, especially Alpay. He was sent off by Tiger shortly after the start of the game. Tiger scored twice in the next game and assisted Beckham to score a goal, which directly allowed England to sweep their opponents four to zero. Since that game, Tiger has become the person that Turkish players hate the most...

When the players on both sides shook hands, Alpay stopped for a moment and whispered to Tiger in front of him: "Today, you have to be careful."

"If you think you're stronger than Vieira, you can give it a try." Tiger smiled.

"Then I'll let you play. Anyway, I'm suspended from the red card anyway, so I don't care." Alpay continued to stimulate Tiger.

"I'm afraid of everything, but I'm not afraid of rogues." Tiger continued to smile: "Did you forget how I got it two years ago? Not even any useless people can hurt me."

Alpay's face changed, and at this time Tiger had let go of his hand and walked towards the next Turkish player.

Alpay grinded her teeth tightly and looked at Tiger's back.

In this game, Turkey sent a four-four-two formation. Emre and Basturk appeared at the same time in the midfield. Behind them were Yumit and midfielder Tugai, Yumit was the right forward, but the position was a little further back, Emre was the left forward, replacing Hakan Yunsal's position. However, with his characteristics, there may be more activities in the middle. On the front line, Hakan Suk and Hassan Saas were the young forward. In the group stage, Irhan, who once picked the ball over Carlos with his heels, sat on the bench, goalkeeper Rustu and Arpay were still led by Arpay.

England's main lineup has not changed much. England has been using this four-four-two formation for a long time, and the effect is also quite good. Eriksen naturally won't change the formation rashly.

When the game reaches the quarterfinals, there will naturally be no secrets. England focuses on the midfield and dispatches the entire team through Tiger. At the same time, it continues to attack from both wings. It pays more attention to regional defense in defense. Almost all teams know the way of playing without rashly pressing. However, this kind of upright playing style is difficult to deal with with with any tricks. What you have to fight is only internal strength.

Turkey also performed very well in this cup. They ran very actively, fought fiercely, and the players were very persevering. At the same time, their skills were also quite good, and it was difficult to find their weaknesses. Such a game was to avoid the ability to seize opportunities, and to see who had better luck...

Almost from the beginning of the game, the whole game fell into a white heat.

The Turks launched fierce pressing in the midfield. They ran actively and did not lack skills. England could not suppress them in this regard. They could only concentrate the ball at Tiger's feet and let him organize the attack. However, the Turks's defense against Tiger was extremely strict. As long as he got the ball, at least two people surrounded him...

In this case, Tiger began to show his fully mature and experienced skills. After each time he got the ball, once the opponent concentrated his manpower to guard him, he would use the pass and dispatch to let his teammates attack. England also had an offensive method in the absence of Tiger. Just inserting the two wings and crossing, allowing Husky to grab the point of Irving's shot, is already a very effective offensive method, while Turkey's offense seems to be lacking. Although Bastulk and Emre performed very well, their two forwards seemed in a normal state, especially their legendary captain Hakan Suk...

In the fifteenth minute, Turkey created a good opportunity. The passing of two technical midfielders tore open England's defense line. Bastulk made a wonderful pass from Suk to form a single shot, but Suk actually stopped the ball and did not stop well. The ball rolled directly to Ximan's feet...

It is obviously unforgivable to miss such an opportunity in such an important game - England immediately taught his opponent a lesson!

Myers threw the ball out of boundary. After Beckham got the ball, he directly made a cross. Husky in the penalty area jumped up and wanted to play a very difficult inverted gold hook. Naturally, he failed, and the ball flew directly to the left, as if he was about to fly out of the bottom line...

At this moment, Tiger rushed up from behind, jumped up, and then hooked the ball with his left foot. However, just as he hooked the ball, Alpay rushed over like a tiger to block Tiger's shot...

"Idiot, how could I shoot from such a small angle?"

Tiger cursed in his heart, but his feet were not slow at all. First, he shook his left foot and jumped up to dodge Alpay's outstretched foot. Then he landed his left foot and raised his right foot at the same time, and directly passed the ball into the penalty area with his feet!

Irving, who was inserted into the back point, happened to receive the pass from Tiger. He did not stop the ball, but instead poked the ball directly into the air and stabbed the ball into Turkey's goal!
Chapter completed!
