On the afternoon of July 12, Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

In the World Cup final, China vs. Germany.

Before the game, the atmosphere in the Chinese team's locker room was extremely solemn.

He fought hard all the time, especially in the last two games, and has fought hard against the Netherlands and Argentina, which has a great impact on the Chinese team and consumed a lot of money. Ren Xing was injured in the game against Argentina, Chen Tao also exhausted his energy and failed to start tonight.

Queros had to make adjustments and adopted a more balanced 442 formation.

The goalkeeper is Wang Dalei, the defense is Li Xuepeng, Feng Xiaoting, Mei Fang and Zhang Linpeng, the frontcourt are Hao Junmin, Zhou Haibin, Zheng Zhi and Wu Lei, and the double forwards are Yang Yang and Gao Lin.

Chen Tao, Wu Xi, Zhao Xuri and others were all put into the substitute lineup and were ready to play on the bench at any time.

Everyone can feel the current situation of the team. It consumes too much. Being able to fight here is already their limit. It is really too difficult to defeat the powerful Germany.

This team is completely different from the Netherlands and Argentina. The German tanks have always been known for their stability.

Needless to say, the South Korean and Japanese World Cups have reached the finals under the leadership of Barack, and finally lost to five-star Brazil; Germany reached the semi-finals in the third place, defeated Portugal in the third place, and won the third place again; South Africa once again advanced to the semi-finals, defeated Uruguay 3-2 in the third place, and won the third place again.

And this year's Brazil World Cup they reached the finals again, and even slaughtered the host Brazil 7-1 in the semi-finals.

The Netherlands and Argentina are unstable, and both teams are ups and downs because they have various problems, especially Argentina, who plays lazily, is weak in the midfield and is weak in the backcourt.

But Germany has always been known for its integrity, and it is difficult for such a team to be unpopular.

Facing such an opponent, the result is often regrettable.

...

Players are most sensitive to their bodies.

They know better than anyone else’s physical fitness and status, even better than those scientific instruments.

But it is precisely because of this that they are so solemn, especially when the team is short of major generals.

It is rare for Yang Yang. Before head coach Queros can mobilize before he can stand up and stand in the middle of the locker room.

Everyone in the team is here, including Ren Xing, who is not on the roster.

Everyone looked at him silently.

Not tall, 1.83 meters, neither fat nor thin, he has never been that kind of muscular player, but his strength is not weak because he is very smart in playing football, very good at blocking positions and utilizing his body.

It was him who led the team step by step into the Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.

This is something they could not believe before the World Cup.

And now, he was standing like this, and everyone was just looking at him. Gradually, they felt a sense of determination, a sense of confidence, and a sense of fighting spirit.

After a long time, Yang Yang suddenly bowed deeply to everyone, scaring everyone to stand up quickly.

"Thank you very much!" Yang Yang said with a smile, "It was you who made me realize my wish and let me stand on the stage of the World Cup finals. It was you who made me feel the joy and achievements of football again."

Everyone listened silently, and many nodded their heads in empathy.

Yang Yang is thanking them, but aren’t they thanking Yang Yang?

Football is a team sport, and both individuals and collectives achieve each other.

"This is the last game of our World Cup and the seventh game. I believe that a month ago, we would never have thought that we could play seven games in any way. But now, we have achieved it, and we have walked into the Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro."

More people nodded one after another, which was indeed unimaginable.

"I think that since we have come to this point, we no longer need to accept any mobilization and encouragement, we no longer need to fear any difficulties and challenges, and we don't need to worry about what we will play in the next game, because those are no longer important!"

"The most important thing is that we are standing on this stadium tonight. This is the history of Chinese football, and it is also the first time in the history of Asian football, in the history of world football, non-European and South American teams reached the World Cup finals. No matter how we played in the end, we have reason to be proud and proud."

Everyone was deeply inspired.

Yang Yang is right, such a final does not require any mobilization or encouragement, and no one is willing to lose.

"I think what we need next is to try to enjoy this unprecedented World Cup final that will make us feel proud and proud all our lives. We don't leave any regrets, and we don't need any pressure or burden, because as long as we have a clear conscience, we will be worthy of ourselves, all the fans who support us, and the national flag on our chests!"

Yang Yang slapped hard on his chest, with a blood-red Chinese flag on his jersey.

…………

…………

The players of the two teams, led by Italian referee Rizzoli, walked out of the player channel one after another.

The Maracana Stadium was filled with joy, and countless fans were scrambling to cheer.

In the stands, many national leaders and former stars were invited to attend. The Chinese leaders temporarily changed their itinerary and made a special trip to participate in the World Cup final. German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Russian President Putin... They all watched the game accompanied by the Brazilian president.

Spanish captain Puyol, accompanied by Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen, appeared in the Hercules Cup, while Kaka entered the court with a game ball. When the two met Yang Yang, they both sent their sincere blessings and encouragement.

The Chinese national anthem [March of the Volunteers] was played at the Maracana Stadium. All Chinese players, national team coaches and staff, all Chinese and overseas Chinese fans in the stands, as well as Chinese leaders in the core area of ​​the rostrum, stood up and sang the national anthem aloud.

This is an extremely solemn moment!

Because this means that from today on, in the history of world football, the footprints of the Chinese have been left forever. From now on, everyone will remember that in the 2014 Brazil World Cup, China overcomes all the obstacles and finally reaches the World Cup final with a dark horse.

And Yang Yang will also become a hero who has left his name in history in the world football world!

The audience sang the national anthem, and the majestic and grand momentum was unforgettable for life.

...

The game did not deviate from outside expectations.

The Chinese team still turned to the strict defense after the opening.

Queros' 442 formation also retreated very far, with the three lines remaining compact and tight, and did not give the German team any chance.

As we all know, the overall offense of the German team lacks explosive points and does not have players with particularly outstanding personal abilities, which makes them more able to rely on passes, controls and cuts to pull the opponent's defense and create loopholes.

To put it simply, German players are a bit like industrial products on the assembly line, with standards and rigorousness, but lacking a unique personality.

Yang Yang was still very active and put pressure on the German team's defense with Gao Lin.

In the ninth minute, he even had a fast long-distance rush. After dribbling into the penalty area with his personal ability, he waded through Hummels and knocked back in front of the baseline, but Gao Lin's shot that followed was saved by Neuer.

After that, the German team began to strengthen restrictions on Yang Yang and also increased their offensive efforts, making the Chinese team's situation even more difficult.

But in the 30th minute, the Chinese team suddenly made another quick counterattack.

Zheng Zhi passed the ball to the left. Hao Junmin dribbled the ball along the left and passed it diagonally behind the defense line. Yang Yang quickly penetrated the penalty area from the middle. After stopping the ball, he faced Hummels alone. A clever pendulum passed by. After shaking Hummels away, he dribbled the ball inward, shot the ball with his right foot, and hung directly at the upper right corner of the goal.

The Yangyang area works again!

One to zero!

The entire Maracana Stadium was completely boiling!

All Chinese fans were extremely excited, and even the neutral Brazilian fans were shouting Yang Yang's name frantically.

But then, the situation of the Chinese team became even more difficult.

The German team is different from other teams, they are too stable.

They lost the ball in half an hour, but they were not in a hurry at all. They still slowly controlled the ball and the rhythm.

The Chinese team had to deal with it, and was constantly consumed by the opponent's already seriously insufficient physical fitness.

The Chinese team led by one goal in the first half, but what is surprising is that everyone felt that the German team would definitely counterattack in the second half, because in the last stage of the first half, the Chinese team could no longer keep up with the pace.

Sure enough, Lov's team began to counterattack wildly in the second half, rushing against the Chinese team's defense again and again and again, creating threats again and again, but the Chinese team was still defending tenaciously, and did not give the German team any chance.

But the end of the time, the more money the Chinese team consumes and the more mistakes they make.

In the second minute of stoppage time in the second half, Tony Kroos suddenly shot from outside the penalty area, breaking the Chinese team's goal and equalizing the score for the German team, one-to-one!

Both sides entered overtime!

However, overtime did not change the unfavorable situation of the Chinese team. The German team still had an overwhelming advantage and continued to bombard China. Especially in the 113th minute of overtime, the new force Xuerle, who was on the bench, used his speed to force the breakthrough on the left and made a cross. After Gotze stopped the ball with his chest, he volleyed with his left foot and scored.

Two to one!

This is also the first time in the history of the World Cup finals that a substitute assisted another substitute scored.

But in the third minute of stoppage time of overtime, Yang Yang got the ball in the frontcourt and was fouled when he turned around and got rid of it, winning a free kick opportunity with 29 meters away from the goal.

Yang Yang tried hard to calm down, adjust his breathing, and scored in one go. He used a direct free kick to tie the score again.

Two to two!

At this moment, the entire Maracana Stadium was completely crazy!

Countless Chinese fans, even from Brazil and Germany, were cheering for the direct free kick at this last moment, and Yang Yang had no idea where he got his strength and rushed to the stands on the sidelines.

This is his ninth goal in this World Cup!

Both sides entered a cruel penalty shootout!

Then, Yang Yang was the first to take the penalty kick, but Neuer performed well afterwards. The Chinese player lost the penalty kick twice and finally lost the World Cup final regretfully.
Chapter completed!
