Chapter 842: Dark invasion


The England team prepared for the 1/8 final calmly and seriously.
On the eve of the Oita expedition, Aldridge attended the pre-match press conference as usual.
At the beginning, there were still reporters asking about Rooney's scandal, and Aldridge ignored the reporters without expression.
Questions surrounding Rooney were thrown on the table, Aldridge's eyelids were not lifted, just like the wind in the ear.
Those journalists who asked questions rushed to suffocate, this kind of neglect, naturally hurt some self-esteem.
"Huh, what a big name?"
A reporter from Africa couldn't hold his breath and complained a lot.
Aldridge still didn't change his face, as if he didn't hear it.
Many journalists in Europe laughed in agreement.
Playing big names?
How about the young master?
Unhappy, you can disappear, you can not interview.
Moreover, is it really a big name?
The theme of this press conference is about tomorrow's game, not Rooney's scandal. If you like to ask questions that you don't want to close, don't complain about how handsome you are.
European journalists are very well-behaved. When the England team made the punishment conclusions public, Rooney’s incident is settled, and it’s pointless to hype. Moreover, Rooney is really not an important person in England. Today’s interview , Either broadcast in the evening news program, or published in the newspaper tomorrow, who are concerned about the battle between England and Senegal, who would be interested in watching Rooney's news again?
Isn't it just a prostitute?
How big is it?
If it is in the off-season of football news, there must be a lot of hype, but now, it is the World Cup. Everyone in England has cleaned the portal, what else can be hyped?
Constantly asking Aldrich, if it is not a reporter with insufficient experience, it is some African reporters, trying to disrupt England, it can be added to help Senegal off the court.
But the handsome guy does not dump these people at all.
There was silence for a while, and Aldridge finally spoke.
"Since there is no problem, can I go now?"
As soon as Aldridge's words fell, the Fleet Street reporter raised his hand.
The press officer indicated that the other party could ask questions.
"What do you think of the performance of the Senegal group stage?"
"I think Senegal has surprised the world enough. They are the pride of African football. Before that, many people in the world may not have heard the name of Senegal, but through the World Cup, their excellent performance has won the respect of the world. With recognition, they defeated France and drew Denmark, and in the final game they played a tremendous 3:3 with Uruguay. The great team, England is very happy to be able to play against Senegal."
"You mean, Senegal has attracted the attention and vigilance of England, right?"
"Of course not! We treat every opponent very seriously and will not underestimate any opponent. If we say that because the opponent is the first to reach the top 16, we will be vigilant, then the England team can not go further, only respect Every opponent, pay attention to them, and go all out for every game to go further."
"Senegal coach Methu said before that England is very strong, especially a coach like you who has extraordinary experience and ability. He dare not say that he will defeat you, but he will try hard, but what do you think of this?"
Bruno Mecho, a French coach, started to set foot on the African continent a few years ago. Senegal was able to appear on the World Cup stage, and he contributed greatly.
Aldridge smiled and said: "To me, Mechu is also a hard-to-handle coach. I dare not say I can definitely beat him, but I will try hard! He has an extraordinary experience in the African continent Coaching makes people yearn for and envy his achievements, because he can make the people of a country proud and proud, and can make a country walk from the unknown to the world stage. His achievements, ordinary people can only look up, tomorrow, fight with him, also It will be a rare opportunity since I coached."
European journalists smiled, Aldridge’s remarks were a kind of heroic empathy, and also reflected a status quo. Europe is a leader in the field of football. Even if African teams rise suddenly, the leaders are also coaches in Europe. .
A reporter asked: "Senegal is likely to face England with a conservative anti-anti-strategy. What do you think of their tactics?"
"It's normal. No one stipulates how football should be played. What kind of tactics a team must use. Existence is reasonable. No matter what tactics Senegal plays, I will not be surprised. At the end of the game, they won. I will congratulate them. They lost, and it doesn’t make sense to discuss tactics. The same is true for England."
Aldridge replied lightly.
As for the tactics England will choose tomorrow, Aldridge said frankly: "We will stick to the usual formation of platoons, and what kind of situation will appear in the specific game. It is impossible to generalize according to the situation at that time."
In any case, Aldridge’s comments or opinions on Senegal have won the favor of African journalists. The reporters who previously said that he is playing big names have shown a trace of shame.
In the professional field, Aldridge will never be arrogant or contempt for his opponents. He will never give people a high arrogance, which is one of the reasons why he is respected by the outside world.
Originally thinking that the press conference was over, Aldridge did not expect that a reporter on Fleet Street suddenly asked: "Mr. Hall, what do you think of yesterday's 0:1 loss to South Korea in Portugal? "
Aldridge froze, and all the reporters on the scene rekindled.
Just yesterday, the World Cup group stage ended.
First, in the afternoon, Japan, one of the host countries, defeated Tunisia and advanced to the top 16. Then the European Red Devils Belgium defeated Russia and entered the top 16.
At night, since the start of the World Cup, the most controversial game has appeared.
Portugal vs South Korea, Poland vs. the United States, the two games start at the same time.
South Korea and the United States are 4 points, Portugal 3 points, Poland 0 points.
Portugal is going to qualify and it is very dangerous to draw even before the game.
The reason is very simple, they can’t pin their hopes on Poland, and hope that Poland can snipe the United States, because Portugal lost to the United States, 2:3, and Portugal won Poland by another 4:0, plus Poland also lost to South Korea before In any case, Poland cannot be a boost to Portugal’s promotion.
Even if Poland’s game started five minutes into the game, Poland even scored two goals ahead of the United States, but Portugal still played offensive football against South Korea. This is a performance of a strong man. He must stick to himself and control his own destiny. Not praying for help from others.
Portugal, in a mad attack, set off storms, and then, soon, the head referee became the protagonist.
Argentine Sanchez can tolerate Song Zhongguo's continuous flying shovel and elbow movement against Figo, and can ignore Jin Taiying's fierce felling on Concicao. Under this punishment scale, the Portuguese team's players will naturally be provoked, so the action Bigger, when Pinto used a two-legged flying shovel, the referee Sanchez simply took out the red card, as if there were no signs, as if at this moment the referee remembered that he had a card.
Portugal, who had to play 10-11, was hit hard again in the 66th minute of the second half. Beto was sent off with two yellows and one red. At the same time, a decisive change took place on the other side. The Polish team led the United States 3-0 , This is a score that can lock the victory.
As long as the Portuguese team holds the draw, they will share the same points as the US team and advance to the top 16 with a goal difference.
However, the 11-for-9 Korean team did not give Portugal a chance by virtue of the horrible home atmosphere. After 4 minutes, the number of Portuguese players on the field was obviously inferior. Park Ji-sing picked the ball in a humiliating manner in the penalty area and then broke through the city gate. Tai Chi Tiger defeated Portugal, the golden generation, scored 7 points in three games and advanced to the top 16.
Portugal, in the event of a draw, can be promoted, and finally lost out.
Although the start of Portugal’s current competition is not ideal, but the return to Poland is obvious, and the fight against the host South Korea will certainly not fall. Without the double penalty standard of the referee, Portugal will not be easily irritated. They must have problems themselves. "Golden Generation" It is difficult to prove yourself in the contest, and it has a lot to do with their mentality. Statistics of their red card data show that the probability of their red card is really not low.
However, when the head referee became the focus, and the Korean team was strongly promoted, this changed the game.
The World Cup should be the fight of players, the coach's fighting style, not the place where black law enforcement officers should grab the spotlight.
The appearance of the black law enforcement officer will inevitably make many fans feel that they have been attacked by darkness.
And think of the various remarks that Blatter said in Japan. At the same time that this darkness invades, the heart of the heart will be swept by the cold.
"The more shocking results will continue."
"Unpopularity will not disappear, this is also my expectation for the future game."
"The gap between the established powerhouses and the traditional new army has been bridged."
Compared with Bailey’s crow mouth, Blatter’s prediction seems more reliable, but Blatter said the world will be shocked, South Korean coach Hiddink also said that the South Korean team will shock the world, what is the reason for these two shocks? Realize, different opinions.
Since the start of the World Cup, the French team has come out of nowhere, Argentina's disruption in advance, and Brazil, Spain, the shock of the offensive frenzy, and now, another color has begun to infect the World Cup color: darkness.
There is no doubt that in Incheon, the "red whistle" played a role, making the World Cup event begin to fade into a carnival of ordinary people.
When Aldridge encountered a reporter's question about yesterday's game in Portugal, he didn't want to speak, and immediately changed his mind.
He must say that certain people must be "warned" not to try to make England a political victim.
Aldridge was not afraid of the sky, but he was not afraid of turning face with anyone.
What he is asking for is just the fairness and seriousness that should be guaranteed.
"I am very sympathetic to Portugal's experience. The referee became the focus of discussion after the game. This shows that there is a problem with law enforcement. Portugal is the victim and is now under FIFA investigation. Why? Just because the referee is absolutely untouchable Did you hit it? But when you are robbed, you should resist. Standing on the side and talking coldly, saying that the player must remain rational, huh, huh, I haven’t played, but I think about it if I am a player, I I think when I suffer from injustice, should I understand reason as a compromise, concession, shut up and not resist, or should I stand up to defend my rights and interests? Defend my interests for my team? It is undeniable that the host has an advantage, and this advantage is reflected at home Atmosphere, familiar with the environment where the event is held, this is the advantage of the host. If someone forcibly gives the host a certain advantage, huh, this kind of person is the enemy of fans all over the world, the enemy of the sport of football, if it is me, I Will stand up and fight each other at all costs, I am such a person."
Aldridge's words just fell, and many people took a breath.
It’s easy to get enemies with young masters!
FIFA said he must not kill him!
Indeed, just after the press conference, FIFA expressed its anger and dissatisfaction to the FA. As for the "fight" Aldridge said in the press conference, FIFA did not take it seriously.
However, five years later, UEFA has taught the so-called marshals to fight and fight, how crazy to defend their interests, and directly wrote the marshals into the history of European football, thus changing the pattern of European football!
