Lin Yun and Muller, who scored hat tricks, became the focus of the first round of this World Cup. Together with Messi and Neymar, who also scored goals and led the team to victory, the four became the most watched stars at present.
Correspondingly, the teams they lead have also received greater attention.
The England team received a warm welcome from the fans in Sao Paulo. Lin Yun also found many Asian fans wearing his own jerseys in the crowd. It was very likely that they had traveled thousands of miles to see him. He had to stop frequently to express his gratitude. They signed and finally boarded the bus after the security guard took the trouble to persuade them.
Rooney didn't know what kind of PY deal he had reached with Wilshere, but he actually got the benefit of living with Lin Yun.
In terms of position on the field, he and Lin Yun should indeed be in the same room. After all, they need to cultivate a tacit understanding. However, Xiaopang's main purpose is obviously not this, but to let Lin Yun help him score goals in the World Cup. account.
"You have to help me!" Rooney slapped Lin Yun on the shoulder, "I want to score!"
Lin Yun gave him a roll of his eyes, "Brother, you should tell Gerrard and Wilshere this, because I want to score goals too!"
"No, no, no, I'm not stupid. Telling them is useless," Rooney licked his face and smiled, "Only you can help me."
"No, I can not."
"As long as you think about it, you can definitely do it!"
"The problem is I don't want to."
"No, you want!"
"..."
On June 18, the second round kicked off.
The match between Brazil and Mexico started first, with the two sides drawing 0-0.
Spain lost to the Netherlands 1-5 in the first round and then lost to Chile 0-2 in the second round.
On June 20, it was the second round of Group D, and everyone's attention turned to England again.
In the first round, Uruguay lost an upset 1-3 to Costa Rica, while England narrowly defeated Italy 3-2, so for Uruguay, this is a must-win game.
"England failed to win against Uruguay twice before in the World Cup. The last time they defeated their opponent was at Anfield in 2006, but it was a warm-up match..."
"The highlight of this game is not only the duel between Lin Yun and Suarez, the two top scorers in the Premier League last season, but also the competition between Suarez and Gerrard."
“There was a special spectator in the stands: Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
If you want to ask which superstar is missing the most from the World Cup in Brazil, many people's answer may be Ibrahimovic.
As one of the best players in today's football but unable to showcase his talents in the World Cup, Ibrahimovic is undoubtedly a pity. In the previous match between Spain and Chile, Ibrahimovic also witnessed the defending champion's group stage elimination. Also watching the game live with him were Paris Saint-Germain owner Arsani and head coach Blanco. This time watching the game between England and Uruguay, Ibrahimovic should have come to cheer for his club teammate Cavani. …
What's interesting is that after Sweden was confirmed to miss the World Cup in November last year, Ibrahimovic also said when talking about the World Cup: "The World Cup is not worth watching without me, so there is no need to wait." '
Such remarks also caused a lot of controversy at the time, but now it seems that Ibrahimovic's statement at the time was more like an emotional catharsis of anger after the failed World Cup preliminaries play-offs..."
Ibrahimovic did come to see Cavani, but mainly to see Lin Yun.
This kid has already copied two of his goals, and he thinks he should collect some copyright fees.
In the players' tunnel, Su Ya grinned and showed his big white teeth while chatting with Gerrard. When he saw Lin Yun, he greeted him warmly.
In addition to Su Ya, Godin, his old opponent in the Champions League final, was also there. If nothing else, he should be the one to defend himself in this game, so Lin Yun also greeted him in a friendly way, but what he didn't expect was the opponent. stinky face.
England basically used the starting lineup against Italy in the last game, but also made some slight adjustments, mainly including placing the three Musketeers in the starting eleven.
Goalkeeper: 1- Joe Hart;
Defenders: 2-Glenn Johnson, 6-Jagielka, 5-Cahill, 3-Baines;
Midfielder: 4-Gerrard, 7-Wilshere;
Midfielder: 20-Chamberlain, 19-Sterling, 10-Rooney;
Forward: 9-Lin Yun.
Uruguay's lineup is 4-4-2.
Goalkeeper: 1-Muslera;
Defenders: 22-Cáceres, 3-Godin, 13-Jimenez, 6-Alvaro Pereira;
Midfielder: 14-Lodeiro, 17-Rios, 20-Alvaro Gonzalez, 7-Christian Rodriguez;
Forwards: 9-Suarez, 21-Cavani.
"Suarez scored 31 goals in the league last season and had 12 assists. Cavani also scored 16 goals in the Ligue 1. The striker formed by the two should not be underestimated. England's defense will face more challenges. hard situation.
Of course, compared to England, the pressure on Uruguay's defensive players is undoubtedly greater. After all, they may face the most powerful firepower in the world today..."
An unexpected loss to Costa Rica in the first game pushed Uruguay to the edge of the cliff. This game must go all out. Immediately after the opening, they spared no effort to launch a fierce attack. However, there is still a gap in hard power between the two sides. England survived their three attacks. After that, he quickly took control of the game.
Sterling was very active. After receiving the pass from the backcourt, he got rid of it continuously, brought the ball to the Uruguay half, and found Lin Yun with a precise through ball.
Godin immediately wrapped himself around Lin Yun like an octopus, almost with his hands and feet.
Lodeiro took the opportunity to step forward and poke the ball away, and Uruguay breathed a sigh of relief.
The referee shook his head, blew his whistle, and then looked at Godin speechlessly, who was still reluctant to get off Lin Yun.
It was Lin Yun who threw him hard, and Godin was thrown off in despair.
The audience was booed, and even the Uruguayan fans felt embarrassed.
"...Godin made an unconventional defensive move and got a foul. England got a well-placed free kick."
It was supposed to be Gerrard who took the penalty, but Xiaopang was so eager to score today that he immediately picked up the ball and put it at the spot where the foul was committed.
Gerrard could only come to the penalty area and prepare for a follow-up shot.
As expected, Rooney chose to hit the goal directly.
The football successfully bypassed the wall and flew to the left side of the goal.
Muslera reacted quickly and immediately fell to the ground and dived, but although he caught the ball, he failed to grasp it firmly and the football rolled out again.
He didn't have time to get up and immediately rushed over again.
Chamberlain, who was nearest, rushed forward and fired a low shot, but in order to avoid Muslera who was rushing towards him, he hit the ball quite wide and directly helped others clear the ball.
"Look at how Rooney took this free kick... hit it directly! Oops! It was so close... Chamberlain made a supplementary shot! Unfortunately, I was too anxious... Uruguay was in danger at the beginning of the game. It seems that the England team today The condition is still good.”
Joe Hart obviously looked down upon Muslera's mistake, which was not a mistake, and immediately demonstrated what a professional shot was.
Uruguay hit the ball into the penalty area, Suarez easily dodged Jagielka's interception and crossed to Cavani in the middle of the penalty area.
Cavani raised his foot and shot, full of power, but the angle was too right, almost directly towards Joe Hart.
Joe Hart made a save the moment Cavani touched the ball, but he didn't expect the football to fly towards him like this. He quickly closed his hands in front of his chest, intending to hug the ball directly.
Then he let go after hearing the hot news.
Suarez and Cahill rushed towards the football together, but Cahill finally took the lead and kicked the ball towards midfield.
As soon as Wilshere stopped the ball with his chest, he saw Lin Yun retreating and lobbed the ball over without saying a word.
Lin Yun blocked his position and blocked Godin firmly behind him. After the football fell in front of him, he suddenly kicked the ball hard and hooked the ball backwards.
The football flew high and landed about one meter inside the penalty area.
Rooney shouldered Jimenez's pull, ran to the landing point of the football as soon as possible, and used all his strength to hit the middle and lower part of the football.
The football flew high, scraping the crossbar and flying out of the bottom line with a "clop" sound.
Hodgson on the sidelines was so angry that he jumped up and down, and Rooney on the court was also holding the back of his head with a look of doubt on his life.
When Lin Yun turned around, he happened to see the football hit the crossbar. He was so angry that he rushed up and kicked Rooney directly on the butt.
Rooney was about to have a seizure, but when he turned around and saw Lin Yun, he was so frightened that he just wanted to turn around and run away.
"If I pass the fucking ball to you again, I'll be a dog!"
"No!" Rooney said quickly, "Do it again! I can do it!"
Lin Yun gave him a look to let him understand.
"... Rooney is too anxious! He has already shaken off the defensive player. This ball can be stopped and then played slowly! But it can also be seen that he is in very good condition today. He scored two consecutive shots. It’s just a hair’s breadth, maybe he’s just a little unlucky.”
England's attack came in quick succession.
In the 9th minute, Sterling broke through and won a free kick, but Baynes' cross was cleared by the opponent's defender.
In the 10th minute, Chamberlain passed the ball and Gerrard's shot was blocked by Alvaro Pereira.
In the 15th minute, Uruguay's attack was stopped at the front of the penalty area, and England launched a counterattack.
Wilshere passed a low pass to Rooney. Rooney stopped the ball and used brute force to break away from Rios' defense. He ran with the ball for more than 30 meters and then sent the ball to the penalty area with a through kick.
Lin Yun pushed aside Jimenez in front of him and made a powerful volley towards the football.
Muslera was immediately fooled and jumped to the left without hesitation, but ended up alone.
Lin Yun held his left foot high and put it down gently, and tipped the football lightly with his toes.
Spoon lob!
After the fight, he was about to turn around to celebrate. Unexpectedly, Godin suddenly flew out from the side and blocked the ball.
Behind Uruguay's goal was the England team's fan area, and the fans in that area suddenly jumped to their feet.
"Handball! Handball! Foul! Red card!"
Lin Yun also immediately looked at the referee.
This wave of counterattacks was very urgent. The referee was still more than ten meters away from them at this time, and he was not sure whether the opponent saw it.
Fortunately, the other party did not disappoint him.
The sound of "beep" made all the people in England happy.
The referee showed Godin a yellow card and then gave England a free kick close to the penalty area line.
Lin Yun was a little dissatisfied, but the location of Godin's foul was indeed on the penalty area line. At this time, the referee was indeed unlikely to award a penalty kick.
Rooney still wanted to hit the ball, but this time Gerrard didn't tolerate him and pushed him directly into the penalty area.
Lin Yun lurked on the right side of the wall, and Godin ran over again, blocking him from the goal.
Gerrard looked at the goal and then at the wall. After two steps, he suddenly picked up the ball hard.
The football drew a parabola and fell to the right side of the wall.
Godin immediately exerted force and tightly pulled the hem of Lin Yun's jersey, while desperately pushing Lin Yun out.
Lin Yun immediately concentrated his whole body on his shoulders, pushed Godin away from him with a fierce push, and then jumped up with all his strength and pushed the football towards the goal.
The football once again drew a parabola and fell to the right side of the goal.
Muslera looked at the speed of the football and sighed inwardly.
"The question isn't...what the hell?!"
Just as Muslera was about to save, Rooney suddenly rushed in like a tank, jumped up, and dribbled the ball into the Uruguay goal.
1-0.
"...Gerrard passed the ball and Lin Yun headed the ball towards...Rooney!!!"
"Lin Yun's header passed, Rooney's header opened the scoring for the Three Lions, and England took the lead in breaking the deadlock!!!"
"GOAL!!! Wayne Rooney! After waiting for 759 minutes, he finally scored his first goal in the World Cup! In the 18th minute of the game, Lin Yun's assist and Rooney's shot made the England team one Ball lead!”
"Rooney finally didn't waste any more opportunities, and Lin Yun also received his first assist in the World Cup..."
Rooney got up from the goal, opened his arms and ran excitedly to the corner area, and then looked up at the sky, looking extremely crazy.
The camera focused on the England ladies in the stands and accurately found Rooney's wife Colleen.
Colleen raised her arms and cheered wildly, attracting a lot of attention.
After Rooney went crazy, he thought about where the ball came from. He quickly looked up to find Lin Yun, only to find that all the other teammates were running towards him quickly. Only Lin Yun was walking slowly and leisurely like an old man taking a walk.
He rushed out quickly, avoided Gerald and Sterling, ran in front of Lin Yun, opened his arms and rushed towards him.
Lin Yun couldn't dodge and was hugged tightly by Xiaopang.
Rooney hugged Lin Yun and spun him around three times before letting him go, "Thank you, brother! What did I say? As long as you want it, you can!"
"Thank yourself," Lin Yun said, "You may not believe it, but my ball was a shot, not passed to you."
"Hahaha, I know, I know, if you pass the ball to me again, you will be a dog."
"..."
Kavin is a bit serious, bro, cute~~
