Chapter 829: Fight for the first

"Hedira took the ball ... Kevin? Boateng forced it up for the first time ... Hedila tried to pass the ball and made a mistake. Essien successfully intercepted the ball before Ozil, a very beautiful Steal, Ghana counterattacked! "
"The player Essien drew the ball very fast and quickly entered the German team's half. The German team's entire back line was quickly returning to the defense, but the left side was a loophole. Lam was obviously too late. Xin Guoran reached the left! "
"Jian took the ball and flicked it ... beautiful, flicked Friedrich away, cut inward to the front of the penalty area and straightened up ..."
"Oh, Ji'an shot was too sloppy. He should be more patient, and the angle of this kick was too hurried, and it was hit by Neuer, and there was no threat at all!"
"Neuil quickly kicked the ball to Jerome? Boateng, the brother of Kevin Boateng. The latter took the ball forward, the German team counterattacked ... A quick long pass, will The ball shifted to the left and was given to Ram! "
"Ram stopped the ball in the chest and continued to dribble the ball along the left road to the hinterland of Ghana and handed it to Ozil!"
"Ozil passed to the front of the penalty area, beautiful, Thomas? Mueller turned the ball after stopping the ball, shot directly from the front edge of the penalty area, the ball entered !!!!!!"
With the exclamation of the live commentator, the fans of the audience were all surprised to stand up from their seats. .
The live TV camera was switched to Yang Cheng in the stands for the first time, and he saw him excitedly rushing out of the first row of seats, raising his arms high, shaking his arms, and venting his excitement after scoring.
Soon, the lens was given to German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and she saw the female prime minister hugs Beckenbauer and Charlize Theron next to her, and she was very excited. South African President Zuma and others were talking excitedly.
"In the 53rd minute, the second half just started 8 minutes. The German team took the lead in breaking the goal of the Ghana team, 1: 0!
The live broadcast of TV repeatedly replayed the slow motion of the entire goal just now, shifting from the long pass from Boateng to the right, and driving the ball to Ram. The progress of the whole process is actually not very fast, and it can even be said that it is a bit of a lagging fighter.
But after Ram entered Ghana ’s hinterland, Ozil ran over to respond, attracted the attention of players such as Essien and Annan, and created an intimate opportunity for Thomas Mueller, so Ozil took the ball, The ball was sent to the front of the penalty area with little consideration. And Thomas Mueller really got into the gap pulled by Ozil.
"The German team's coordination is very beautiful, the running consciousness is very good, whether it is Özil or Thomas? Mueller, especially the latter, the turn after taking the ball is very calm and decisive, the kick is very firm, obviously It feels very good to take the ball, and I'm pretty sure of this shot! "
"1: 0. The German team took the lead in the 53rd minute!" The live commentator shouted excitedly and excitedly.
Yang Cheng felt very comfortable after the team scored, because the advantage of the German team is still very obvious. It's just that the first half didn't play out, Lam inserted more firmly in the second half, and the interaction between Thomas Mueller and Ozil was more full.
"Let them not indulge in scoring goals, hurry up and calm down!"
"Don't care, remember, we are only one goal ahead, and it's very unsafe!"
Yang Cheng issued several orders one after another, requiring players not to relax because of scoring, while maintaining the pressure on the Ghana team, don't shrink back. Continue to maintain pressure, strive to score more goals, and thoroughly lay the advantage of the game.
But just after the German team scored less than 5 minutes, a counterattack from the Ghana team once again broke into the hinterland of Germany without any oppression. Friedrich intercepted the ball coming into the penalty area in advance, but did not immediately clear the ball, but looked up and did not know whether to take the ball or wait for his teammates to come over and catch the ball.
But at this time, Essien rushed up for the first time, entangled Friedrich, and used a more intimidating push action to push Friedrich. The latter did not control the ball, directly The ball was stabbed by Essien. The Ghanaian buffalo got the ball and slid into the penalty area. After seeing Neuer attacking, the ball was crossed and the point was inserted. Ayu, who was inserted afterwards, 1: 1!
Friedrich complained to the head referee for the first time, and believed that Essien had a shoving action, but this action was very secret, and the two were in physical contact, so the head referee ruled that the goal was valid. //
Yang Cheng looked helpless in the stands, spread his hands, "Should I laugh or cry?"
This is obviously not the category that the head coach should be responsible for. This is caused by a mistake by a player on the court.
Benitez also seemed very helpless. This is the case of football games. Players are playing on the court and are under unimaginable pressure from outsiders. This pressure may cause them to appear some bizarre but actually reasonable and reasonable actions.
It ’s like Friedrich ’s mistake just now. What did he think? No one knows, but he did n’t make the first move. Obviously it was a mistake. At that time, he might be thinking of controlling the ball, but He ignored Ghana's offense and Essien was very close to him. In this case, it was very dangerous to control the ball at his feet, especially for a central defender.
"What now?" Benitez asked.
The coach seat in front of the stadium, Paul? Bayer and Frick also looked over, obviously waiting for Yang Cheng's decision.
"Fight with them!" Yang Cheng shouted directly.
Soon, the German team replaced Gomez, who was performing indifferently, replaced Bordeaux, and replaced Friedrich with Tony Klos in the 70th minute, showing that he was against Friedrich The dissatisfaction with this mistake caused Hedira to retreat to the defensive area and Tony Kroos and Schweinsteiger partnered in midfield.
After the German team made a substitution, the offensive started again, and once again launched a violent attack on the Ghana position, but Ghana was not in a hurry, because as long as a draw was able to ensure the qualifying, they played more patiently. Defensive counterattack, and later replaced a forward with Montari to further strengthen the defense.
Yang Cheng also received news. In another match, Australia temporarily led Serbia 2-0, which made Yang Cheng relieved. As long as the score is temporarily maintained, the German team can qualify from the group.
If Germany finally draws Ghana and Australia defeats Serbia. Then both Germany and Australia have 4 points, but Germany has the advantage of a goal difference, so if the two teams have the same points, the German team can surpass Australia. Successfully promoted to the knockout, even if such a promotion looks a bit embarrassing.
In fact, although Serbia pulled a goal back at the last moment, it was still unable to reverse Australia, and even after the German team chased after it, it still failed to score a goal from Ghana. 1: 1 Tied.
This way. The promotion team of Group D where the German team is located is clear. Ghana is the first group, and the German team is the second group. According to the previous lottery rules, the first group D touches the second group C and the group D The second touch is the first in Group C, so the next opponent of the German team is the United States, which beat England to get the first in the group.
The time was on the evening of June 26, and the game was held in Rustenburg, about 120 miles from Johannesburg.
This American team staged a reversal in three consecutive matches in the group stage. The strength may not be the strongest, but the fighting spirit and tenacity must not be underestimated. This will be a strong enemy of the German team.

"No longer a knockout!"
Outside the stadium of the Johannesburg Football City Stadium. Three grey-haired seniors sat on the lawn outside the green area of ​​the stadium, surrounded by fans like the sea pouring out of the stadium, and beside them was a small young tree with no name.
In order to prepare for the World Cup in South Africa, the stadium is new, the road is new, almost everything is new.
Some things can be piled up with money in a short time, but some things are not. For example, these small trees less than two meters in length seem to be afraid of being blown down by the wind, and they are supported by wooden sticks beside them. But still unable to withstand some passing fans, picked a few leaves.
"You can't see success, you can't do it. It's a big deal to sell the tickets again!" One of the old red-nosed men sighed. "Are you right? Shu Ze?" He said Shu Ze is an old man standing on his right side, age 2 years younger than him. But the hair is also gray.
Shu Ze nodded, "Unexpectedly, Caesar came, we still failed to qualify for the group first. This game was really depressing to the extreme. I can't understand, what the players are playing!"
"I don't think this can blame Caesar, he led the team for only a few days, and I always feel that this national team is getting a little stranger now, it's too soft, look at our batch of coy The player, Barak, did n’t come. We did n’t seem to find such a player, lacking domineering and self-confidence!
Lafitte shook his head and sighed.
"Well, there is no domineering and self-confidence. Although the skills and ground coordination are strong, the team's combat effectiveness and cohesion have declined. If you can't go far, you should quickly prepare to go home!" Paule clearly showed his national team The status quo is quite dissatisfied.
"The economy is better and the standard of living has improved. They are no longer children of starving poor families. Each one has become a flower in the greenhouse. They are spoiled and spoiled. Where is the domineering?" Lafitte sneered.
"It is estimated that Caesar is disappointed now. I'm afraid he won't take over the German national team anymore. Maybe he will go back to Madrid once the World Cup is over and he won't come to Germany anymore. Who likes to play with a group of soft eggs ? Even if I have the opportunity, I must scold this group of bastards! "
The three old men suddenly scolded the German internationals all together. The worst thing was Friedrich who made a mistake in this game.
"It may not be that Caesar is not a person who gives up easily!" When they finished scolding, a middle-aged man next to him said, "And he has a deep feeling for German football. Maybe he will want to change the status quo? "
The three old people didn't expect someone to talk to each other behind them, and turned their heads. They saw a middle-aged German, and looked at the three of them with a smile, as if they were very white-haired elderly. Interested.
"Maybe, but I don't think he can really do a miracle!" Red nose Paule is clearly the most determined of the three.
"Of course, there are no miracles in this world. The so-called miracles are actually things that people do not even believe in themselves!" The middle-aged man smiled and echoed, "This is what Yang Cheng said!"
The three old men stared at this junior as if they were asking, is your kid familiar with him?
"Right, what kind of tickets did you just say?" The middle-aged man asked with a smile.
"The eighth-final, the first-place ticket for Group D!" Shu Ze sighed. "Originally, we hurriedly came from Hamburg to South Africa. As a result, we didn't buy a ticket, or high prices from three England. Kaizi bought it, they felt that England could get the first place in Group C, so there is no need to watch the first match in Group D. And we also think Germany can get the first place in Group D, so ... "
"Haha, Lafayette, they are indeed Kaizi, but now you are also Kaizi, does the German team get the first place in the group? You have to go to watch the game between Ghana and the England team!" Boller looked very excited.
The middle-aged man was suddenly silent, in his eyes. These three old fans are probably not too young. White hair is very rare in this World Cup stadium, and they still come from Hamburg for thousands of miles, obviously to support the German team, which shows their feelings for the team, but did not expect……
"I started to watch the World Cup from the beginning of 70 years, almost every game of the German team has not fallen, but this time I am afraid ..." Lafitte seemed very depressed. Because he is likely to miss the game of the German team.
"Maybe, you can go to the Internet to exchange with the England fans, I guess they will be happy to exchange tickets with you!" The middle-aged man proposed with a smile.
"Yes. Shuze!" Hearing Boller, he vigorously patted his thighs. "Go back to the hotel and go online to exchange tickets with the England Kais. They must be looking for someone now. Exchange tickets, haha, maybe you can still kill them for a trip to Rustenburg! "
Listened to his two companions, could not help but nodded, and immediately jumped back to the hotel.
"Three people!" The middle-aged people watched them leave, thinking about it. I chased them up, stopped them, took a pen and paper from my pocket, and wrote down a phone number, "If you can't change the ticket, call me again. I'll help you get a few Tickets! "
The three old men stared at the middle-aged man in front of him, what was he like?
"Yes, my name is Tim? Hank, you can call me Tim, I am also German!" The middle-aged man smiled, turned around and left, leaving three incredible old people.
"Tim ... Hank?" Lafitte felt familiar, but the old man's head turned slowly, which he didn't expect for a while.
"Maybe it's the Football Association!" Boller said.

"Anyway, the group is still qualified!"
In the hotel after the game, Beckenbauer sighed with mixed tastes. If he didn't make it out of the group, he wouldn't know what would happen if he returned to the country.
Nielsbach also sighed deeply, "You said, how far can he lead the team?"
"Who knows?" Beckenbauer smiled. "But don't hope, whether it's Spain, the Netherlands, or Brazil, it's more mature and stronger than us, so we should relax now and don't put pressure on the team. , Don't put pressure on him! "
He knows Yang Cheng too much, or he will not promise to take over at the beginning. Once he agrees, then he will go all out to do his best without anyone saying, so in this case, there is no need at all. Say much, as long as you give trust and support.
"We must have confidence in him at all times!" Beckenbauer said.
Nielsbach nodded, Yang Cheng's ability no longer needs to undergo any tests and doubts, and now no one can qualify to doubt him, because he is the strongest head coach in football today, there is no doubt.
As they said, they heard the knock on the door, and then saw Yang Cheng open the door and came in.
"Wolfgang, I just have something to ask for your help!" I saw Yang Cheng's wind and dust walk in.
Nilsbach froze, "What's the matter?"
Yang Cheng explained a few words, and Nielsbach nodded immediately, "Well, I'll call someone to do it!" He left after finishing talking.
"It seems that you have not lost your fighting spirit and confidence!" Beckenbauer stared at Yang Cheng and said with a smile.
Yang Cheng smiled slightly, "I will not lose confidence even if I lose this game directly without fighting to the last moment, because I know very well that if you have confidence, you may not win, but without confidence, you will definitely lose!"
Beckenbauer nodded his head and smiled with admiration. This is also the place where he admired Yang Cheng the most. From the first meeting that year, Yang Cheng ’s confidence left a very deep impression on him. He never Will doubt Yang Cheng's confidence and ability.
"This thing ... sorry!" No one, Beckenbauer hesitated, but decided to apologize.
Yang Cheng smiled and patted Beckenbauer on the shoulder. "Our two brothers, don't need to say that."
He knew what Beckenbauer meant, but it was because he dragged Yang Cheng in in advance. In fact, Yang Cheng felt that this was nothing. He was unhappy with what I wanted. No one could force him, only Saying this matter is his own choice.
Beckenbauer certainly understands Yang Cheng's personality, so he also respects the friendship between the two.
"Yes, Ms. Merkel will continue to stay in South Africa. She said that she will watch every game of the German team this time. She also invited your Mrs. Charles to accompany your son." Beckenbauer said with a smile.
Yang Cheng smiled after hearing this. He had already received news from Charlize Theron after the game. This is a good thing, so he didn't say anything.
Now he has thrown all his mind into the game. He must adjust the team's state and solve the problem in the shortest time. Otherwise, Germany will stop in the first round of the knockout game!
Either don't do it, you have to do your best, always strive for the first, this is Yang Cheng's football credo!
