Chapter 10 The Holidays Are Over(1/2)
"It's really unbelievable, it's unbelievable that the US team was not optimistic before the game but led Brazil with two goals in the first half."
"Donovan scored the second goal of the game for the United States, and it was only 27 minutes before the game started for less than half an hour.
In South Africa, the southernmost tip of the continent, there are crowds of people in the Ellis Park Stadium in Johannesburg.
The cheers of American fans forced the commentators on the scene to try hard to increase the volume, almost roaring.
On the court, American players are caring.
No one expected that the final of the Federation Cup would have such a start...
The United States was not favored before the game and led the defending champion Brazil with two goals in the 27th minute of the first half.
"When the United States eliminated Spain in the 20th, it was almost over the final, everyone already found it incredible... Do they want to make another upset in the final?"
In sharp contrast to the excited American players and fans are Brazilian players.
They all looked at the American players in a daze.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
When he threw the football to Rongguang again, Sun Fengyang was scolding, and he couldn't help but feel a little stronger when he threw the ball.
Rongguang had to take a step back before he caught the football he "smashed".
"Has the ball been lost again?"
He asked.
"Well, this time it's Donovan. This is the second goal, a counterattack... It's really ironic. Brazil, which changed to a defensive counterattack, was entered by the American team..." Sun Fengyang complained.
He was wearing headphones in his ears and was watching the Federation Cup finals on the radio, Brazil vs. the United States.
"I think Brazil underestimated the opponent. They didn't expect that after the game started, the United States would force it so fiercely in the frontcourt, which caught Brazilian players off guard. Kaka was also robbed so much that he could hardly hold the ball and could not play at all... Alas."
Sun Fengyang sighed.
Although he is Chinese, he was born and raised in Brazil. He is a Brazilian citizen and naturally supports the Brazilian national team in football.
Now he is very resentful to see Brazil leading by two goals by the United States team, who had never looked at it before, in the final of the Federation Cup.
Hearing that Kaka was not performing well, Rongguang snorted from his nose, but said nothing else.
Then he bent down and put the football on, stepped back, and continued to practice.
Bang, he kicked the ball towards the goal with one kick. The ball did not fall in the air, but flew directly to the barbed wire net behind, and it did not fall down until it was blocked by the barbed wire net.

During the halftime break, the atmosphere in Brazil's locker room was a little dull. Until the end of the first half, Brazil could not equalize the score... Not to mention equalizing the score, they couldn't even score a goal.
The score is still 02. The United States is leading.
Given the strength gap between Brazil and the United States, when will they fall behind the United States two goals in the first half in the past matches when the two sides face off?
This is simply a shame...
Kaka also sat in his position without saying a word.
"Kaka, I have to criticize you." Head coach Dunga said to Kaka with a frown.
Kaka raised his head when he heard this, and the other players also looked up at the head coach and Kaka.
"You are not active enough in this game today. Is it because of the transfer that makes you a little distracted? No, don't explain..." Seeing Kaka open her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, he signaled Kaka not to speak.
"I don't care what the reason you have, but I just want to see that normal Kaka. Don't let you be the target of someone else's joke in the second half."
Kaka lowered her head again.
When he heard the head coach's words, a person he hated suddenly appeared in his mind.
Although there is not much news about him this summer, no one knows where he is.
But Kaka knew that Rongguang must be hiding somewhere and trying hard to train
Never let this person have the chance to laugh at him at all
He clenched his fists.

"Kaka - it's so dangerous to go out from a long shot. Brazil almost scored a goal, but Kaka's performance is indeed completely different from the first half... He is more active and motivated in the second half... If he continues like this, I believe the advantage will return to Brazil..."
"Kaka's shot, goalkeeper escaped Lucas - Sutton GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
American goalkeeper Howard had already fallen to the ground because of his long shot trying to save Kaka, and could no longer get up and block his shot...
"Brazil scored a goal and they still have a chance"

"pretty"
Rong Guang looked back at Sun Fengyang, and the sound was made from Sun Fengyang.
What's beautiful?
I've kicked the ball away again...
"Brazil scored a goal back," Sun Fengyang explained excitedly when he saw Rong Guang's puzzled gaze.
"Who got in?" Rongguang asked.
"Lucas."
"It's that boy." Rongguang was very happy. Since the separation, Lucas has done well at Atletico Madrid and has continued to hold the main role in the Brazilian national team. I believe that he will definitely participate in the World Cup next year as the main center. He will no longer be able to serve as a substitute for Ronaldo and Adriano like four years ago...
"Kaka's indirect assist." Sun Fengyang added. "His shot caused American goalkeeper Howard to take off his hand, and Lucas scored a goal. Kaka's performance in the second half improved significantly. It seems that he doesn't want to be ridiculed by someone..."
He joked.
Rongguang just snorted when he heard this.
Then continue practicing.

When Glory finished training, the Federation Cup final in Johannesburg, South Africa also came to an end.
In the end, relying on a header from Lucio, Brazil reversed the United States and successfully defended the Federation Cup. At the same time, they became the first team to win the Federation Cup three times.
Although Kaka did not score in this final, his active performance in the second half revitalized the team's offense, and all three goals were related to Kaka.
The first shot was caused by his shot, which caused Howard to miss, and Lucas made a follow-up shot.
The second ball was Kaka dribbled into the penalty area. After attracting the attention of other American defensive players, he passed the ball out to Lucas who followed up.
Lucas scored easily, without a second goal, and also equalized the score.
The third ball was a corner kick, and it was Kaka's long shot outside the penalty area that was saved by Howard to form a corner kick. Through this corner kick, Lucio pushed the ball into the goal and completed the final kill.
In an interview after the game, Kaka was asked why his performance improved a lot in the second half and what exactly made him change so much?
Kaka stood in front of the background board, smiling quietly after listening to the reporter's question. What popped up in his mind was Rong Guang's face, but what he said in his mouth was: "I have to thank our head coach for the adjustments made during the halftime break..."
He would not tell the media that he was unwilling to let someone look down on him or laugh at him, so he worked so hard...
Another reporter asked Kaka: "Now that the Federation Cup has ended and your team has successfully defended the champion, so now can we talk about transferring to Real Madrid?"
"I am very grateful to AC Milan for their positive attitude towards transfer. I am also very grateful to AC Milan fans for their understanding and support. I have dedicated my best time to AC Milan, which will always be my home. At the same time, I am also very happy to be able to join a great team like Real Madrid..."
Kaka continued to smile and said beautiful and nice scenes.
No one can offend.
Only someone can tear off his packaging.

When the sunset had sunk below the horizon to the west and only the afterglow spread from behind the mountains of the Iberian Peninsula in the distance, the lighting on the side of the training ground was lit.
The turf in front of the goal will turn snow-white.
Glory ran to the football and then kicked the football with his right foot.
The football flew straight up, crossed the human wall, then fell suddenly, rubbed the lower edge of the crossbar and drilled into the goal.
"pretty"
Sun Fengyang couldn't help but shout.
Debola also clapped with a smile on her face.
Jose Alemani hit the number on the computer: 266.
Twenty-one thousand six hundred
This is the 21,600th goal that Glory has played
"Okay, that's OK" After recording the ball, he raised his arm and signaled.
After shooting the ball, Glory was lying on the ground and gasping for breath.
