- However, before the match between the Danish team and the Brazilian team, there are still two final battles for the top 8 seats on the last day of June. These two games can also be regarded as focus battles. One was unexpectedly defeated by the Danish team. The Dutch team, which was forced into second place, faced Paraguay. The other game was the European civil war that attracted the attention of fans, the "Battle of Two Teeth" between Spain and Portugal.
The first match was played by the Dutch team at the Loftus Stadium in Pretoria. The two sides played very anxiously. In the first half, Robben hit the crossbar, which can be regarded as the Dutch team's victory. The most threatening shot in the game, after which both sides had similar defensive intensity but failed to achieve anything. In the end, the game ended in a 0-0 draw within 120 minutes.
Entering the penalty shootout, Robben once again missed a penalty. In the end, Paraguay defeated the Netherlands 5-3 on penalty kicks and entered the top 8. This was also the first time in the history of Paraguay that it reached the top 8 of the World Cup. There is a sharp contrast between the ecstatic Paraguayans and the depressed Dutch who cannot control themselves.
Perhaps Van Marwijk would not have thought before coming to South Africa that there would be so many surprises during this trip to South Africa. He unexpectedly lost the first game of the group stage, the team unexpectedly stopped in the top 16, and his farewell performance was actually a penalty kick. , and Robben, who was originally highly regarded, actually became the biggest "culprit" for the team's elimination. But this is football, with unpredictable spin.

In the end, Spain defeated Portugal 1-0 and advanced to the top 8, reporting for the 2004 European Championship.?One shot of revenge. Iniesta was also very happy to have entered the top 8. He called Messi and Qin Tian immediately after the game. He said coaxingly that if they met in the final, they would definitely destroy them both. However, Qin Tian probably has no hope, because their next game will be against the powerful Brazilian national team. If they want to enter the semi-finals, they must first overturn the South American giant. In Iniesta's view, this is an impossible task. .
"Qin, it would be great if you joined our Spanish national team. It's a pity" Qin Tian could feel that the other party must be shaking his head at this moment without Xiaobai standing in front of him.
So far, all the top eight teams of the South Africa World Cup have been born, namely Uruguay, Denmark, Argentina, Ghana, Spain, Brazil, Paraguay and Germany. The European region became the biggest winner, followed by the American teams, while all Asian teams were killed. As the host, the African team was the only one left. Ghanaians bear the glory of all African fans.
The waiting days are always relatively long, and the first game of 1/4 is the contest between Denmark and Brazil. Tomorrow is the day of the match against Brazil. I don¡¯t know why Qin Tian suddenly couldn¡¯t sleep. ¡°Damn it, why can¡¯t I sleep? It¡¯s not the final. I¡¯m not scared, am I?¡± He was very confused. Relatively speaking, the Danish team Against the opponent Brazil, the outside world thinks that the probability of losing is very high, but Qin Tian just feels that his team's probability of winning is very high.
"Let's go out for a walk." Maybe it's because of the World Cup battles in the past few days, plus the fact that the Premier League games ended at the latest, and the burnout period has arrived. This is not physical tiredness, but completely psychological fatigue. After all, the modified Qin Tian's body is completely top-notch, and coupled with scientific living habits, there is no problem with his physical fitness.
Qin Tian was walking alone in the hotel garden. The night air was quite fresh. The only bad thing was that the temperature was a bit lower.
"Qin, why aren't you asleep yet?" Michelle's voice came from behind. Coaches always go to bed the latest. After all, they have to make sure that every team member is asleep before going to bed themselves.
¡°If you can¡¯t sleep, come out and walk around.¡±
"Haha, do you feel particularly tired?"
"Hey, how do you know?"
"It's normal. Players are also human beings, not gods. Sometimes it's not the body but the mind that is tired. Don't forget, I also come from the player era."
"Indeed, how to solve it?"
"Why should you settle it? Rest when you are tired. It is best to let nature take its course. Don't think about anything. Do something you like. Listen to music, watch movies, and call your loved ones to relieve tension. , maybe I won¡¯t feel so tired soon.¡±
Qin Tian didn¡¯t say anything, but he felt much calmer now, ¡°Okay, just relax and go back to the room. After all, it¡¯s winter. If you¡¯re freezing, you¡¯ll be really tired.¡±
"Okay, go back right away", Qin Tian took a heavy, greedy breath, "Come on, Qin Tian", turned around and walked towards the room. When he was tired, he had someone to talk to him, even if it was nonsense, his mood He was able to relax completely, but it seemed he still cared too much about winning or losing. But this is the magic of the World Cup
The next day, that is, on the morning of July 1, an accident occurred at the end of the Danish team's last formal training session before the game, which triggered a stir in Jutland and all the fans who care about and support Qin Tian. The panic also caught the Danish team's coaching staff a little off guard.
Originally this was a semi-open class, that is, the media could watch and take photos in the first hour. What you can see is that the sidelines of the stadium are already full of sprinters at this moment. The reporters also have different shapes, some are squatting. , some are lying on their stomachs, and some are eating and working at the same time. And it was precisely at the end of the hour that Qin Tian suddenly staggered during training, and then motioned to Mike Jensen, who was not far away, to help him and slowly walk to the sidelines.
"Huh? What's going on?"
"what's the situation?"
Some of the reporters who were filming were even packing their luggage, but after seeing this scene, they all exploded like chicken blood. If the security guards hadn't reacted quickly, some reporters would have Rushing into the stadium, more reporters were already taking pictures randomly, and the scene became a mess.
By this time, Olson and Michelle had already noticed something was wrong and immediately ran over, "What's going on? What's going on?"
"The place where my calf was kicked last time is a little painful. Just when I was about to exert my strength, I felt a stinging pain." At this time, Qin Tian answered honestly. After all, it is better if there is no problem. If there is a problem, he will not tell it earlier. If something goes wrong, you will be the sinner of the team. Everything should focus on the overall situation.
The Danish team¡¯s doctor is also the sameHe was doing various inspections nervously, but after all, he didn't have any professional equipment at hand. If he wanted to make an accurate judgment, he couldn't just talk nonsense at this time. After thinking about it, he said, "It shouldn't be a big problem. But to be sure, my suggestion is to go to the nearest hospital immediately to have a comprehensive examination of the right calf before drawing a conclusion."
At this time, the reporters on the sidelines were still rushing in like crazy. Olson, who was confused by Qin Tian's incident, also lost his composure and yelled at the security guard next to him, "Stop them. Don't let them get close." He was also too concerned about Qin Tian's situation. After all, the team couldn't do without Qin Tian. "Then let's do it, Haven, Michelle, you two take Qin Tian to the nearest hospital. , the results came out, notify me as soon as possible, I have to get rid of these annoying flies first."
"OK."
At this moment, Qin Tian was also a little depressed. He only stopped training out of caution, but he didn't expect that his influence would be so great. The slightest disturbance would immediately cause the scene to become chaotic. This was really a happy and depressing thing. However, health came first, and Qin Tian didn't care. He immediately left the hotel from the other side under the escort of two people.
"What's going on? What's going on? We have the right to know what happened!"
"We have interview qualification certificates issued by the Football Association. You can't treat us like this."
"We want the right to know"
"Is Qin injured? Will he play in the next game against Brazil?"
"Will Thomason replace Qin as captain?"
"Hey, don't push me, I have an interview pass. If I really want to, oops"
The reporters were still yelling, but Olson ignored them all and just continued to order the security guards to temporarily drive them out
