Chapter 50: Succession Ceremony

There are only two days of rest between the group stage and the knockout stage.

Especially for Brazil and China, they are the opening match of this knockout stage, and they have the bonus of Brazil as the host, so they are more concerned.

During the two days of rest, the national football teams are competing in their adjustment ability.

Everyone has played three games, and how to adjust and recover their physical fitness is a key.

The Chinese team has recovered well in physical fitness, and under the praise and exaggeration at home, the players are in a good mental state.

Although they are facing a big enemy, they are not afraid.

Or fundamentally, they don’t think they can beat the Brazilian team, so they should be more relaxed in their mentality.

On the other hand, the pressure on Brazil is greater.

The Chinese team is not a strong team, and even from the result, the appearance of the Chinese team is a good sign for Brazil.

But the Chinese team is not a weak team.

After the group stage, the resilience of the Chinese team has surprised many people.

Draw with the Netherlands and Spain, and cleanly win Chile, all these tell everyone that this Chinese team has the possibility of creating miracles.

The overseas players in the team, led by Lucky, have attracted much attention.

Lucky, in particular, has become the most difficult target in the minds of Brazilians.

Although they have Neymar, it is unclear how Neymar will play against Lucky.

And Lucky is physically strong, and Neymar is most afraid of this kind of physical confrontation.

Oscar is full of fighting spirit. He wants to defeat Lucky on the stage of the World Cup and prove himself.

Let this nightmare in his heart completely dissipate.

At the same time, he also wants to tell the Portuguese through the World Cup.

Look! I am much better than him!

Of course, he doesn't know that Mourinho and Chelsea even plan to activate the penalty clause in order to get Lucky.

If Oscar knew the news, he would probably faint with anger.

The city of Belo Horizonte has become a yellow ocean, and a large number of Brazilian fans have come to the junction to cheer for their home team.

Although there are some Chinese fans among them, they are completely overshadowed by the huge group of local Brazilian fans.

Brazilian fans are still friendly.

They did not attack the Chinese fans because the Chinese team was their opponent, but welcomed them.

They even watched the lion dance performance of the Chinese fans with great interest, and some even joined in.

Here, you can see the fusion of cultures.

The Chinese lion dance and the Brazilian samba dance together!

In the lively scene, fans flocked to the Mineirao Stadium.

This stadium, which can accommodate 70,000 people, was occupied by fans of both teams at this time.

In particular, Brazilian fans occupied three stands, while Chinese fans occupied one.

For the first time, Chinese fans felt the home atmosphere from the host.

"Damn it!!! I can't shout!!!"

A Chinese fan shouted depressedly.

A companion on the side said; "It's their home court, how can we shout more!"

As soon as the voice fell, another huge cheer came from the opposite side.

Immediately, the crowd on the opposite side began to surge, spreading along the stands like waves.

This is the famous Mexican wave.

The human wave continued to surge along the left side, and the Chinese fans also gave up the idea of ​​competing with the other side and joined in.

Comparing the loudness of the opponent's voice in front of someone's door is just asking for trouble.

Anyway, for most fans, they didn't even think that the Chinese team could advance.

They came here simply to enjoy the game and feel the atmosphere.

As long as the Chinese team doesn't play too badly, they will definitely be greeted with flowers and applause.

Suddenly, the cheers on the scene became louder.

Everyone looked towards the stadium.

They saw the players of both teams running out of the player tunnel.

This is the warm-up session.

After Lekai walked out of the player tunnel, a wave of heat hit him and he couldn't help grinning.

It's really hot!

It looks like another day of dehydration!

When Lekai walked onto the court, Chinese fans burst into huge cheers.

Of course, it was basically buried.

The Brazilian team on the other side was also warming up, and Lekai also saw the Brazilian team's top star Neymar.

Neymar just joined Barcelona last year and is now in a period of success. Although Lekai debuted earlier, he can't be compared with Neymar in terms of fame.

After all, he became famous overnight with the title of genius.

Lucky got to the top slowly!

Of course, both of them had heard of each other.

At this time, Neymar had not yet completely mixed into the fashion circle, and had a yellow-haired rustic hairstyle.

Of course, Neymar, wearing the No. 10 Brazilian jersey, was still the brightest guy on the scene.

After a simple warm-up, Neymar picked up a ball from the side and suddenly shouted to the opposite half:

"Kai!!!——"

Lucky heard someone calling him and turned his head to look over.

At this time, Neymar suddenly threw the ball into the air and then passed it with a big foot.

The ball flew fast, fast and accurate. Lucky subconsciously straightened his chest, and the ball immediately completed the force release and flew in the air.

Lucky took the ball in his hand, a little confused.

What does it mean?

"This is a 'reception gift'." Wang Yi came over and said with a smile; "You have to pass it back, or you can pass it around. This is very common in Brazilian internal leagues and represents welcome!"

Lucai suddenly realized it and asked immediately, "How do you know?"

"I played football in Brazil a long time ago!" Wang Yi said.

Lucky nodded, then pointed to Neymar and passed the ball with his big foot.

Neymar easily stopped the ball with the inside of his foot, then gave Lucky a thumbs up and smiled.

Sure enough, the Brazilian fans at the scene started cheering and applauding.

At the same time, Duan Xuan also explained when he saw this scene.

"This is an unwritten rule of the Brazilian League. The 'passing ceremony' of passing the football to away players represents welcome. Of course, this kind of passing ceremony does not always occur, but when the home players particularly appreciate each other or This scene happens when they are friends. Lucky and Neymar have no intersection. Obviously this is the former!"

After this episode, the atmosphere at the scene became more harmonious.

There is less of a smell of gunpowder and more competition on a competitive level.

Of course, this is before the game starts. Everyone is saying hello and me. Things will change after the game starts.

Just like in the Chinese team's locker room at this moment.

Coach Liu Hongbo said with a fierce look on his face: "Brazilian players are very skilled with their feet. When you feel that you can't keep up, just shovel decisively. Of course, you must also pay attention to your movements and try not to take any cards!"

The Chinese team has completely implemented foul tactics.

This is a situation where a weak team beats a strong team and there is nothing that can be done about it.

Now that I'm here, I have to fight for it no matter what!

Otherwise, no one would be willing to accept it!

"Lucky, your position is aimed at Neymar, and he will be left to you." Assistant coach Zhang Chen looked at Lucky and said.

The latter nodded to show understanding.

At present, within the Chinese team, any opponents that cannot be solved are handed over to Lucai. This is the most effective way.

After all, even through coordinated defense, they may not be able to limit Neymar.

Now we can only see if Lucky can carry out one-on-one restrictions.

"Okay! Boys, you have already made history. Don't put too much psychological pressure on yourself. No matter you win or lose, you are all good!"

Liu Hongbo encouraged; "This game is a tough battle. No one can ask you for anything. It is up to you to decide how to play, so it depends on your own performance!"

"As long as you are strong enough to win, let's have a good time!"

After speaking, Liu Hongbo led the coaches to stand on both sides of the locker room door.

One by one, the Chinese players stood up and walked out, and they followed the coaches with high-fives.

Everyone's expression was extremely serious.

This is their first World Cup knockout match!

It is also the first time for the Chinese team!

This is a completely unfamiliar field, and the opponent is the powerful five-star Brazil.

As Liu Hongbo said, no one can ask them, they just need to play their part.

This is an epoch-making game for China!

It’s also an exploration race!

There is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides!

The other side has the home field advantage!

No one can predict how well the Chinese team can play.
