Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The two teams have met three times in history. Spain has a slight advantage with 1 win and 2 draws. In the 1998 World Cup, the two teams drew 0-0. In the 2002 World Cup, Spain defeated Paraguay 3-1.  Spanish coach Del Bosque maintained his usual lineup. Torres, who was in poor condition, continued to start, while Xavi Martinez and Albiol were injured.  Paraguay has not conceded a goal for 321 minutes in this World Cup. This game is mainly defensive. Forwards such as Barrios and Santa Cruz are on the bench, and high center forward Cardoso starts.  Guatemalan referee Batres officiated the game.

    Before kick-off, just like the previous match day, Spanish and Paraguayan players jointly displayed banners to eliminate discrimination on the court.  Only 1 minute into the game, Cardoso headed the ball, Caceres made the ball, and Santana shot in the penalty area but Casillas got it.  Just two minutes later, this time it was Santa Cruz's shot, a powerful and heavy long-range shot from outside the penalty area. It shocked the Spanish defenders and almost knocked on the Spanish goal. Fortunately, in front of the goal  Standing was Casillas.

    After the brave Cassie stood up, the scene of cheering and cheering seemed to indicate that this game was destined to be his stage.

    Sure enough, this game became a personal performance for the goalkeepers, especially Cassie. Valdez's goal in the first half was called offside; in the second half, Cardoso and Alonso both missed penalty kicks, and Villa scored in the 83rd minute.  The winning goal, Spain defeated Paraguay 1-0.  Spain will face Germany in the semi-finals, a repeat of the European Cup final.

    The title of FIFA¡¯s official website is ¨C Cassie!  Brave Cassie!

    Olson didn't care much about Casillas' magic. It was just an occasional phenomenon. What he was frowning at now was some of the statistics reflected by the Spanish team in the game, such as the three goals in Paraguay 20 minutes before the game.  After the end, the Spaniard did not give the opponent any more chances. The ball possession rate reached 58%. Paraguay shot 3 times in the first half!

    How to break the opponent's style of play?  Spain is currently Olsen's imaginary opponent in the final, but the opponent's strength really gives Olsen a headache

    "Okay, boys, it's not time to think about Spain yet. One-quarter of the game is over. Everyone needs to tighten up again, because we are about to start our semi-final trip. The opponent is Uruguay. There is no doubt that we can win.  If we can't beat the opponent, there is a question mark. So starting from tomorrow, we will resume our normal training. I hope you can sleep more peacefully tonight."

    July 6th was a Tuesday, and the next day was the semi-final match between Denmark and Uruguay. Originally, as usual, today's team training match was just a formality to let the players get a feel for it, but Olsen suddenly  I wanted to have a confrontation, but "tragedy" happened

    The Danish News Agency and Danish National Television suddenly broadcast a news about the World Cup in South Africa at noon that day. The accompanying picture made all the fans' hearts twitch. "Qin Tian is injured." He was really injured this time.  .  In the picture, Qin Tian is sitting on the lawn, covering his calf with his hands. This leg is considered "scarred" in this World Cup. First, it was severely shoveled in the game against the Japanese team, and then before the knockout round.  During the training, he got a little twisted, and this time he was tackled by the strong Paulson during the confrontation.

    Suddenly, Qin Tian's injured calf seemed to be Achilles' heel and became a topic of concern from all walks of life. From Johannesburg, South Africa, a hurricane called "Qin Tian's Injury" swept through across the Atlantic Ocean.  , Indian Ocean, Pacific Ocean

    "Our Qin looked terrible and a little decadent. Forgive me for my inappropriate choice of words, but this is what I saw at the time. Although we all know that Qin Tian is very eager to appear in the semi-finals.  "For him, the meaning of football has gone beyond ordinary categories. Now, what I hope is that everyone can pray for Qin Tian together," said Ramis, a reporter for Danish National Television in South Africa.

    Yes!  All people can do when they are at a loss is pray.  Suddenly, churches in Denmark, Buddhist temples, and all places in the world where fans can express their voices were overcrowded. Especially in cities like Copenhagen, Schalke, and London, some fans lit candles. From this moment on  Start preparing to pray day and night.

    I hope Qin Tian can continue to stand up and fight for the team.

    "Mr. Mandela is very concerned about Qin Tian's injury and hopes he can appear in good health in the semi-finals. I wish him a speedy recovery," former South African President Mandela's spokesperson issued a statement that afternoon.

    "Qin Tian's injury is a major blow to Denmark. Now, everyone is praying for him. He will recover as soon as possible," said the chairman of the Danish Football Association.

    "We are very sorry for Qin Tian's injury. He is one of the best players on the planet. I believe in him."He will be on the court very soon, how can we not have him in the semi-finals,¡± said Mr. Chelsea Abramovich.

    "We are very sorry that Qin Tiandi was injured. This is an unfortunate incident. Will he be able to appear in the game against Uruguay? You have to ask the Danish team doctor about this. We have made both preparations, yes, he  "Presence or absence has little impact on us." Tavares accepted an interview with the media. "Uruguay's goal? Of course we hope that the Uruguay team will appear at the Soccer City Stadium. There is no doubt"

    This was the 32nd call, from Jessica. After Qin Tian dragged the three teammates around him to reassure her again and again, Jessica finally half-convinced that Qin Tian was fine. Of course, half  It is impossible to run for 90 minutes in the final. The best possibility is to play for about 30 minutes.

    On the evening of July 7, 2010, the Green Point Stadium in Cape Town was packed with seats.

    There is a clear distinction between the fans of the Danish team and the fans of Uruguay. The middle area between the two is firmly grasped by a large number of third-party fans. And because most neutral fans like Qin Tian very much, basically two-thirds of the stadium is occupied.  Many fans were waving the Danish team's flag or photos of Qin Tian, ??as if this had become the home court of the Danish team.

    The entire stadium is close to the boiling point of an explosion. Fans from both sides are shouting at each other unwillingly. For the players, the game is about comparing skills and tactics, the strength and on-the-spot performance of both sides, but for the fans, it is  It's relatively simple, just compete with who has the loudest voice!  !  !  !  Whose singing voice is louder and more energetic!  Compete to see who has the strongest endurance and can last longer.

    On the big screen in the stadium, the starting lineups of both sides were displayed:

    Uruguay team, standard 4-4-2 formation: goalkeeper Muslera, defenders Pereira, Viclino, Godin, C¨¢ceres, midfielder Perez, Gargano, Rios,  Pereira, forwards Forlan, Cavani.

    The Danish team uses a commonly used 4-1-3-2 formation: goalkeeper S?rensen, defenders Jacobsen, Kjaer, Agger, Mitiliga, midfielder Paulsen, midfielders Romedal and Toma  Sen, Grenchar, forwards Bendtner, Larsson.

    "Sure enough, Qin Tian appeared on the bench. Different from the smoke bomb last time, Qin Tian really did not appear in the starting lineup this time. This is also the first time Qin Tian did not start in this World Cup. It seems that his injury  Not optimistic. Otherwise, regardless of whether the head coach is Olson, I don¡¯t think she would be willing to let a healthy Qin Tian sit on the bench" Duan Xuan said bluntly.

    "And we saw that Denmark sent a two-forward lineup for the first time in this game. The veteran Larsson made his debut in the South Africa World Cup. The players in other positions remained unchanged. Thomasson put on the captain's armband and stood in front of Qin.  Given the position of the sky, I believe Thomason will give his best in this game.¡±

    "And Uruguay also lacks many main players. After all, their last game with Ghana took until the penalty shootout to advance. Without Suarez, Forlan has a heavy burden."

    With the referee¡¯s whistle, the first semi-final match began.  Uruguay kicked off first. After about 5 or 6 passes, the ball was still hanging around the midfield. Rios made a long pass and Paulson pushed the ball out of the penalty area. Facing Denmark's tight defense,  The Uruguayan's first tentative attack had no effect.

    Qin Tian sat quietly on the bench. He had not experienced this feeling for a long time. The camera at the scene also focused on Qin Tian on the bench from time to time. Especially when there was a deadlock on the court, the game fell into a dull mood.  During this period, in addition to Uruguayan fans, both Danish fans and neutral fans missed the omnipotent "Super Qin" even more.

    It has reached the semi-finals, and both sides appear to be more cautious.  Although the loser of this game still has one game to play, no one likes the tasteless third or fourth place finals.  History will always remember the last king!  !  !

    The game was like a glass of warm water. It was already 23 minutes into the first half, and the score on the field was still 0:0. In addition, Denmark had two shots, including a long shot from Thomasson.  Uruguay's situation was slightly better, with 4 shots, but none of them were on target.

    In the 29th minute, with the game already halfway through the first half, Denmark had its first real opportunity to threaten. Thomasson suddenly made a cross pass with a wide field of vision, and the ball reached the feet of Grenjaer.  Grenchar advanced all the way along the right, at the top of the penalty area, suddenly accelerated, passed Godin who came up to intercept, and hoisted the ball into the penalty area. Bendtner's header in the penalty area, the ball reached near the penalty area line.

    Larsson followed up with a powerful shot. Amid the strong inhales of the Uruguayan fans, goalkeeper Muslera blocked the ball with a single punch, and then the ball was hit.??Bigfoot comes to the rescue.

    ¡°It was a beautiful shot. Larson¡¯s sense of smell is very sensitive. Even though he is not young, he still has the feeling in front of the goal.¡± Duan Xuan exclaimed, ¡°Of course, goalkeeper Muslera¡¯s save was not bad either¡­¡±

    Qin Tian was also on the bench, stood up, applauded, and cheered for his teammate's wonderful shot.

    Three minutes later, Uruguay also had an excellent opportunity.  Forlan took the ball and ran all the way along the left, passing through the interceptions of Paulson and Mitiliga. The Uruguayan fans at the Green Point Stadium let out a cheer.  Forlan suddenly cut inside. When Agger came up to block it, Forlan poked with his toe and the ball was passed out. Cavani, who received the ball, took advantage of the situation and got the angle to shoot. He hit the ball and shot it with a rub.  , the ball almost touched Sorensen's hands and quickly slid past the goal.

    The Danish team also escaped.  Qin Tian stretched out his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. He had to admit that watching football off the court was far more stressful than playing football on the court.  Olson on the sidelines couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and walked to the sidelines and yelled a few words loudly. Then he turned back and sat down, muttering all the time, "Defense! Pay attention to defense, you are a bunch of bastards."

    The game went on for 30 minutes, and the score on the field was still 0:0.
