On June 30th, local time in Russia, the fans in the world should be most concerned about the first Russian World Cup 1/8 finals in France and Argentina, but as Tang Zheng tweeted on his personal social networking site, the focus of fans has been somewhat Transfer, especially for Chinese fans.
The speed of the modern network is quite amazing. Tang Zheng tweeted it in less than five minutes. There have been hundreds of thousands of retweets and comments, and more and more fans have joined the retweets and comments over time.
Soon, some fans took Aguero ’s selfies with Xi ’s and Cameron when they visited the UK three years ago, but it is clear that Aguero ’s selfie quality is not as good as Tang Zheng ’s because of its international popularity and toughness Cameron has no way to compare with Putin.
In addition, Tang Zhengfa ’s selfie is not as rigid as Aguero. He is standing behind Xi Bo and Putin, and then taking a selfie with his hands around the shoulders of the two, giving a particularly good relationship with Xi Bo and Putin. feel.
Is there any professional football player in this world who dares to take pictures on the shoulders of the heads of the two countries?
Throughout the world football, only Tang Zheng's family.
So before the start of the first World Cup 1/8 finals, Tang Zheng became the most concerned player in the world.
The final preparations of Messi, Glezman, Pogba, Higuain, Mascherano, Mbappe and other stars are very speechless. It is reasonable that they are the most concerned objects of fans around the world. But no one thought that Tang Zheng had robbed the limelight, and it would be difficult to grab the limelight again ...
In addition to the football world, people who are concerned about political and current affairs also have a strong interest in this, which has made Tang Zheng get a higher exposure.
But the popularity has reached the stage of Tang Zheng, there is no need to deliberately expose, with the glory in Real Madrid in recent years, he is the first person in the world football today.
Whether you want to admit it or not, Tang Zheng is the best player in the world!
At 5 o'clock that day, the first 1/8 final of the 2018 World Cup in Russia kicked off at the Kazan Stadium. This game is considered to be the most noteworthy contest of the 1/8 final of the World Cup, because France and Argentina are in the World Cup. History has won the World Cup, and every World Cup has been rated as a hot title for major media. This peak matchup is also called by the world media to start the World Cup final in advance.
France is the first in the World Cup. Except for right-back Paval playing in the Ligue 1 league, the popularity of the Lille is not high, and the players in the other ten positions are extremely well-known, even in these positions are outstanding.
Argentina was the runner-up of the last Brazil World Cup. The twenty-three roster has not changed much from four years ago. Except for the aging of players, the overall strength is still considerable.
Messi was recognized as the No. 1 star in the world football before Tang Zheng's rise. His strength is top. Aguero, Higuain and Dybala are also the best shooters in their respective leagues. Strong.
Only the lack of players with absolute strength in the midfield and backcourt, especially the lack of a technically skilled front foot with a broad vision, otherwise Argentina was the World Cup champion four years ago.
Even many Argentine media are sighing, if Tang Zheng, who was able to naturalize on the riverbed, was afraid of France now?
Argentina lacked a player like Tang Zheng, which caused Messi to be both a father and a mother.
After all, people's energy is limited. The organization needs Messi and the goal also needs Messi. Messi is a bit difficult for the age to be over.
The Kazan Stadium, which can accommodate 45,000 fans, was full of seats. With the long whistle of the referee of the Iranian referee, Fagani, the first 1/8 finals of the Russian World Cup in France and Argentina were officially announced.
Obviously the event came to the knockout, neither France nor Argentina can afford to lose.
Once you lose, you are out!
At the beginning of the game, both sides focused on defense, and the offense was tentative.
Compared to the group stage, the beginning of the knockout is relatively tedious.
After all ... This game is the first knockout game of the Russian World Cup, and the focus of fans around the world.
Messi, who was given high hopes by Argentine fans, was closely guarded by French fans. They all knew that the core of Argentina's offensive was Messi. As long as Messi was prevented, it would dissolve nearly 70% of Argentina's offensive firepower.
In order to defend Messi, the French team also paid a lot of money, so that they did not have enough offensive numbers, always unable to pose a direct threat to the Argentine defense.
While the French team was defensively defending Messi, Argentina also closely guarded Glezman, Mbappe and Pogba, and did not give them too much time to think, so ten minutes after the game, the two sides contributed very few shots Not much.

In addition to the final preparations for Uruguay and Spain players, almost all fans around the world who are concerned about the World Cup in Russia are paying attention to the first 1/8 final of the World Cup in Kazan Stadium.
Tang Zheng and his teammates were the same, and returned to their hotel after finishing their morning training.
The player temporarily forgot the praise of Xi Boss in the morning, and his eyes gathered on the LCD TV that was more than sixty inches in front of him.
In the first ten minutes of the first half of the game, the attention of both parties was on defense, so there was almost no offense that directly threatened the opponent's goal. Until the twelfth minute of the first half, a long-distance attack by Mbappe caused Rojo to be in the penalty area. The foul inside, the referee Fajani made a penalty kick for the first time.
The Argentine player believes that Mbappe has fallen, and naturally is not very satisfied with the referee Fagani's penalty. Fagani only ran to the sidelines to watch slow motion playback.
After looking back in multiple slow motions, Fagani insisted on the penalty and the penalty was no doubt!
Griezman took the penalty and successfully tricked Almani to kick the ball to the left of the goal of the broadcast screen.
The leading French team gradually gave up control of the ball and counterattacked.
But Argentina's midfield organization is not good enough, Messi needs to return to the midfield frequently to assist Banega and Perez to organize the attack.
In addition, Sang Pauli in order to play all the abilities of Messi, this game is not sent Aguero or Higuain, so Messi away from the goal is no way to directly threaten the goalkeeper Loris.
The scene of stagnation continued until the 41st minute, Di Maria received a ball from Banega and hit a world wave to help Argentina even the score!
Came to the end of the first half, the two sides scored 1: 1, naturally will not be pinned before the end of the first half and then score another goal, so the 1: 1 score continues to the end of the first half.
Tang Zheng sitting in front of the TV shook his head and sighed, Messi worked very hard in the first half, but he was already thirty-one after all, facing the turns defense of Matuidi, Kanter and Umtiti, the more he looked I couldn't keep up.
If there is no accident, Argentina is likely to lose to France.
The fifteen-minute halftime passed quickly. Argentina took the lead in making substitutions before the second half. Fasio replaced Roho with a yellow card and came off the bench.
Easy side battles, no one expected that Argentina will overtake the score in the fourth half of the second half!
In the forty-ninth minute, Di Maria ’s breakthrough helped Argentina get a free kick near the bottom line on the left side of the penalty area. Banega opened the ball to the back point. Pogba was not far away. The football was caught by Messi and faced the horse. Tuidi's defense, Messi in the penalty area right side left side right side to find a left foot shot opportunity.
The football leaked between Matuidi, Varane and Pogba. Right-back Mercado, who had not been able to go back on Messi's shooting line, subconsciously stopped. The football changed the track and rolled into the turf. The right side of the goal.
1: 2!
But the good times are not long. Paval, who has some responsibility for the second goal of the French team, lost the ball to the left-back Lucas Hernandez's pass in the penalty area to complete a very high quality volley shot. Football Hang upright in the upper left corner of the goal.
2: 2! !
The live guide gave Messi a close-up shot pushed to the face. Like most of the past half time, Messi was sullen and serious.
But, more is helpless.
What made Messi even more helpless was that after eight minutes, Mbappé dunked the ball to the left side of the small penalty area during the dogfight in the penalty area, and his left foot low shot helped the French team overtake the score!
The game has been chased by Argentina for the past four minutes. The French team used a quick counterattack to increase the score from a low shot on the right side of the penalty area by Mbappez.
4: 2!
Two goals behind Argentina has no choice but to attack.
Two-ball leading France naturally does not need to spend any effort to score, they only need to maintain the existing score until the end of the game.
Argentina led by Messi stepped up his offensive efforts, but the French team facing the defensive line recovery still has no good way. Until the injury stoppage time, Aguero received Messi's kick in the middle of the attack in the penalty area. The header broke and the score was 3: 4.
However, the time came to the third minute of injury stoppage time, and the time left for Argentina was gone ...
In the end, the French team defeated Argentina 4: 3 with two goals from Gretzman, Paval and Mbappe, and advanced to the quarterfinals.
After the game, Tang Zheng sitting in front of the TV was helpless.
Messi didn't call it hard in the ninety minutes of the game. It can even be said that the team is the hardest player. Two assists are the best evidence, but many times personal efforts cannot make up for the team's deficiencies.
The back of the Messi broadcasted by the live guide appeared extremely lonely. Messi will be 35 years old after four years. Whether he can be re-elected to the national team is an unknown number. His dream of a World Cup champion may ... can only become forever Sorry.
Thinking of this, Tang Zheng shook his head and swayed his negative emotions. Tomorrow night ’s 1/8 final at the Nizhny Novgorod Arena must be in the best state, while inspiring teammates and then defeating the stronger Croatia. , Advance to the quarterfinals!

France defeated Argentina and advanced to the quarterfinals. The ending has been announced. Everyone's attention began to shift to Uruguay and Spain. The second World Cup 1/8 final of the World Cup will be held at the Fisht Olympic Stadium.
The last time Uruguay won the World Cup championship dates back to 1950. It was sixty-eight years ago, and there is not much reference value. However, Uruguay ’s overall play is very impressive, plus the double-gun Suarez and Cavani, There is still a high probability of winning the game.
The last time Spain won the World Cup was South Africa in 2010. However, Spain encountered Waterloo in the Brazil World Cup four years ago and the group failed to qualify.
But after four years of humiliation, Spain, the former World Cup champion, is still not to be underestimated.
So this 1/8 final between Uruguay and Spain is full of highlights. It is really difficult to predict which one will win or lose.
But the game started to the seventh minute, Uruguay first took the lead, Suarez broke the Alba on the left of the attack and sent a delicate pass, Carvajal was not tight, Cavani nodded the ball after a header.
In the subsequent game time, Spain, who was behind, strengthened the offense, but the leading Uruguay defense did very well, so the score did not change until the end of the first half.
The relatively dominant Spain equalized the score in the ninth minute of the second half. David Silva opened the offensive left tactical corner, Isco sent a very accurate pass, Diego Costa was in the middle Shaking a shot, taking Godin's defense, Ramos ambushing the header broke the goal and equalized the score.
The two sides became cautious when returning to the starting line, but the equalizing Spanish momentum was strong, and they launched a bombardment around Uruguay's defensive half, but Spain's continuous offensive failed to score goals, but it was Uruguay's A high-quality quick counterattack scores another goal.
Still scored Cavani. He received a score from Suarez in the left rib of the penalty area and directly scored at the far corner to score, again overtaking!
And this goal is the last goal of the match. Uruguay finally defeated Spain 2-1 and advanced to the quarterfinals. They competed with the French team who defeated Argentina before to compete for a place in the semifinals five days later.
Argentina and Spain are out of succession ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Fans feel sorry, especially Argentine fans.
Although Argentina was eliminated, it was expected, but when it was truly eliminated, it would be somewhat emotional.
Mbappe scored only two yuan and created a penalty, like Messi, who shocked the world 13 years ago, and Messi ’s lonely back made people sigh.
But ... this is football, a brutal modern war.
The 1/8 final between the Chinese team and Croatia was played on the evening of the next day, which is nine o'clock.
Half a day before the start of the game, a large number of Chinese fans gathered in the square around the Nizhny Novgorod Arena and near the hotel where the Chinese team stayed. They gathered together in threes and fives, singing the national anthem and singing the motherland. The land is full of Chinese colors.
There is no doubt that Chinese fans who came to Russia far outnumber Croatian fans, so the 1/8 final stands at the Nizhny Novgorod Arena showed that the number of Chinese fans perfectly suppressed the number of Croatian fans.
Who makes more Chinese?
Before the match between China and Croatia, Russia and Portugal took the lead in the 1/8 finals at the Luzhniki Stadium.
With the goals of Andre Silva and Pepe, Portugal defeated Russia 2-0.
In other words, Portugal's opponent in the quarter-finals was the winner between the Chinese team and Croatia. Tang Zheng, who paid attention to the result, cheered himself up silently.
Be sure to lead the national team to the quarterfinals and defeat Portugal led by Cristiano Ronaldo!
As Argentina was eliminated, the fateful battle between Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo was fascinating.
