“In the 2004 European Cup, the weak German team failed to qualify from the group stage, but in the following years, they gradually tasted the benefits of youth training.
In the 2006 World Cup, Lahm, Schweinsteiger, and Podolski joined the German team.
In the 2010 World Cup, Abandoned, Muller, and Khedira injected fresh blood into the German team.
This year, new players such as Gotze, Kroos, and Schürrle have joined. 22 of Germany's 23-man roster come from the Bundesliga youth training system. "
"England's starting eleven are all products of England's youth training. From Gerrard and Rooney to Wilshere and Cahill, to Sterling and Lin Yun, there are talents from the same generation in the Premier League. This game is both The competition in strength and will between the German and English teams is also a direct collision of the youth training results of the two countries!"
Under the leadership of Italian referee Rizzoli, players from both sides entered the court.
The previous closing ceremony performances had completely heated up the atmosphere. The fans' emotions, which were already at a high point, finally exploded at this moment.
"Under the overlooking of the Colossus of Christ on Mount Corcovado, the World Cup final staged at the Maracanã Stadium seemed to be cast in a sacred color. After today, the new owner of the Hercules Cup will compete between Germany and England. Taking place in time, this world-famous contest was also considered to be the confrontation between the genius Lin Yun and the German system!
In the words of The Times, this will be a game that determines 'whether football is a team sport or a game of one genius + ten mortals'.
This statement is of course biased and ridiculing, but it also illustrates Lin Yun’s significance to this England team to a certain extent..."
In the stadium, the routine pre-match procedures have been completed, and the players are standing in their positions, jogging or twisting in place, not only for the final warm-up, but also to relieve tension and excitement.
Britain and Germany have a national holiday today, and everyone is doing nothing but focusing on the World Cup.
Rizzoli checked his watch with the linesman and the fourth official, and the live camera quickly changed to a swooping perspective, then stretched upward from the kick-off point, showing the entire Maracanã Stadium before the eyes of the world.
Whistle!
"Okay, audience friends, the 2014 World Cup final, England vs. Germany has officially begun!
The English team is wearing red jerseys on the court, and the German team is wearing white jerseys.
The England team had one less day of rest than the German team, and experienced a difficult overtime in the semi-finals. There was a certain disadvantage in terms of physical strength. This game must be decided quickly... As expected, England played very proactively at the beginning. . "
The England team kicked off first, with almost no probing. After a simple pass from Gerrard and Wilshere in the midfield, they immediately separated for Sterling to rush forward.
Sterling took advantage of the situation and passed Schweinsteiger and passed Rooney.
Rooney picked up the ball in the middle of the German team's half, got stuck in position and resisted Kroos's interference, stretched his head, and tried his best to hoist the ball forward.
Lin Yun struggled to break away from the force of Boateng and Kramer, and greeted Neuer with a powerful volley.
"...Sterling passed the ball to the center, Rooney headed the ball over, and Lin Yun volleyed directly!!!"
The football passed between Hummels and Hwedes and flew straight to the upper left corner of the goal.
Neuer was focused from the first second of the game because he was afraid of being surprised by Lin Yun.
Faced with this sudden long-range shot, many spectators with God's perspective felt that it was definitely going in, but Neuer calmly adjusted his steps in the direction of the football before flying across.
With a "pop" sound, Neuer slapped the football with one hand and hit the football to the turf on the left side of the goal.
Just as Ram was about to come over to make a big save, Neuer had already jumped up from the ground and held the football firmly under him.
"Bah bang bang..." There was thunderous applause at the scene, and both German fans and neutral fans applauded this wonderful save.
Lin Yun just wanted to scare him. He didn't expect such a shot to be successful, so he just smiled.
Kramer, who met Lin Yun for the first time, looked at his indifferent smile and felt a chill coming out of him for some reason.
A shot of this level is considered a stroke of genius for any striker. Not only does the timing of the shot catch the defender off guard, but the strength, speed, and angle are all superior choices. If the goalkeeper is not someone like Neuer, For top goalkeepers, the probability of entering the door is at least 70-80%.
If he didn't score a goal like this, he might have regretted not being able to eat for three days.
But looking at Lin Yun's behavior, it seems like he's just gay?
He turned to look at Boateng, hoping to find some empathy from him, but he didn't expect that Boateng also had a calm expression on his face, as if what Lin Yun had just completed was just a careless pass, not a careless pass. A super volley that almost gave England a dream start...
So...this is what is called a "living legend"?
Flat A is equivalent to someone else opening big?
Boateng still noticed his gaze, patted him heavily on the shoulder, and wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he seemed to feel inappropriate and held them back, making Cramer extremely uncomfortable.
Lin Yun retreated a bit, while Rooney moved forward and reached the front.
"... Neuer was very focused and blocked Lin Yun's long shot. Lin Yun and Rooney switched positions. It seems that Rooney is the forward forward today, and Lin Yun should still play the role of free man in the frontcourt."
Boateng also retreated silently.
Kramer is responsible for guarding Lin Yun, and his main responsibility is to guard the penalty area with Hummels.
It was supposed to be Khedira who played today, but Khedira got injured mysteriously during the warm-up, so he became Kramer's starter. But sometimes Boateng even maliciously wondered whether Khedira's injury was intentional. of……
After Lin Yun knocked the mountain and shocked the tiger, the German team played very cautiously, even giving people the feeling of dawdling.
England wanted to take the lead, but were forced into the German team's rhythm. After their heads cooled down, they played more cautiously.
"It was a dull first five minutes."
In the Sky Sports live broadcast room, Alan Shearer watched the two sides slowly pushing back and forth as if they were doing Tai Chi, and couldn't help but feel deeply.
"I have a deep understanding of this kind of pressure. Even if I have never played in a World Cup final, the feeling of being wrapped in chains and having a shot put tied to my feet in important matches will never be forgotten by anyone who has experienced it once. Now it’s up to us who can get rid of the pressure first!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the German team suddenly accelerated.
Schweinsteiger made a long pass, Klose headed a little, and Kroos took the ball.
Cross's signature stop and change of direction got rid of him, easily dodging Wilshere's attack and dribbling the ball forward.
Wilshere was chasing after him, and his hands even made obvious pulling movements. Cross was quickly pulled to a stop, but he still passed the ball to Muller before being pulled back.
There were boos from the sidelines, but Rizzoli did not stop the game.
The attacker is in an advantage!
Muller took the ball and turned around, blocked Cahill's outstretched arm, took two steps forward, fell down and swept the ball to Klose before Jagielka came over to defend.
The hair on all England's lips stood on end at this moment.
Lineker's voice almost changed, "Mueller passes the ball, Klose!!!"
Klose pushed and shot from the penalty area line!
Joe Hart reacted a step too slowly. Although he still tried his best to block the attack by falling to the side, his heart had already fallen into the ice cellar.
Fortunately, there is Cahill in front of him.
When Klose hit the goal, Cahill had already made the correct judgment. He quickly moved sideways, fell to the ground and stretched his feet, barely blocking the fast-rolling ball.
"Cahill! He blocked Klose's ground-breaking slash!"
"The German team also completed its first shot, but it was blocked by the defender!
As the major media said before the game, this game is not only the championship battle between Germany and England, but also the shooter battle between Lin Yun and Klose!
The two completed the first wave of offensives on behalf of their respective teams. Unfortunately, they failed to break through the opponent's door, but it could be seen that they were very active.
Whether it is to help the team win the championship or to defend his status as the top scorer in World Cup history, Klose will do whatever it takes, and the young Lin Yun will definitely go all out for his World Cup dream. We will witness the World Cup Two of the greatest shooters in history compete on the same court! "
All the England players broke into a cold sweat.
Cahill got up to make a big save, and Joe Hart also quickly got up and hugged him hard, wishing he could give him a chicken drumstick on the spot.
The ball landed on the right side of the midfield. Welbeck made a low-level mistake and stopped the ball outside the boundary, which caused bursts of ridicule from the German fans.
"Welbeck was too nervous and made such an amateurish mistake... The referee walked towards Wilshere. His foul on Kroos just now was obvious. Will he take out the card? Oh, no, it was just a verbal warning. The German is very Dissatisfied, Loew on the sidelines was also a little excited..."
There was a conflict on the field for the first time, and the referee's standards were basically tested by everyone.
Rizzoli should continue the thinking of the referees of the past few World Cups to 'make the game smoother', so he can make some small moves with confidence and boldness!
Six minutes later, both sides had a good quality shot, but overall they still played conservatively, and the football was still hanging around the midfield most of the time.
Hodgson and Loew have regained their composure. They just stood on the sidelines with their arms folded, watching the situation on the court intently.
Unlike ordinary fans, their eyes did not just follow the football, but were observing the overall situation. They stayed on Lin Yun for a long time. One of them expected him to explode soon, while the other was afraid that he would make some noise again. .
While Huo Taigong waited anxiously, Lin Yun finally started to press the accelerator button.
"Look at the German team's counterattack... Schweinsteiger passed a diagonal pass to Abandoned. Abandoned passed the ball to Kroos. Kroos also made a short pass without stopping the ball. Muller returned the ball. Knock, ouch, it was cut off by Gerrard! It’s England’s turn to fight back!”
Gerrard destroyed the one-two between Kroos and Muller and took two steps forward with the ball. When he looked up, he saw Lin Yun retreating into his own half and quickly passed the ball with a low pass. .
Kramer was blocked behind Lin Yun, like a helpless child, no matter how hard he struggled, it was of no avail.
When the ball arrived, Lin Yun caught the ball with the inside of his left foot, turned around, and Kramer was bypassed by him like a wooden stake.
The evil abandoned child immediately rushed to grab aggressively.
Lin Yun used his body to protect the ball, put his shoulder on his chest and hit him hard!
The evil outcast staggered back and fell to the ground in a panic.
There were applause and boos from the sidelines at the same time.
The evil outcast immediately raised his hand and looked at the referee, but the referee still looked at Lin Yun intently and ran forward with him.
After being delayed by the evil outcast, Cross had already caught up and launched a flying shovel towards Lin Yun.
Lin Yun pushed the ball forward hard, accelerated to avoid it, and quickly crossed the midfield line with the ball.
It has to be said that with his natural ball sense combined with his long strides and occasionally throwing out the strong wind to change direction, he is absolutely invincible in such a long-distance attack.
Ram pointed at Sterling, signaling Xiaozhu to look at him, and he quickly moved from the side to the center, and stepped forward to face Lin Yun with Boateng.
Lin Yungang passed the ball and missed Hewedes, and the two of them stood in front of him and jointly made tackles.
Lin Yun only had time to push the ball between them, but his supporting foot was kicked by Boateng and he fell to the ground.
"beep!"
Rizzoli immediately blew his whistle and ran over, reaching for his cards.
Ram jumped up and ran towards the referee, trying to reach out and press his hand down, but the referee moved faster and took out the cards first.
Fortunately, it is yellow...
"Lin Yun broke through the middle and was tackled to the ground by Boateng. The referee showed the first yellow card of the game."
"England won a free kick about forty meters away from the goal..."
Rooney came over and pulled Lin Yun up, asking concernedly: "Are you okay?"
"fine."
Lin Yun patted him on the back, and the two walked to the German team's penalty area together.
Gerrard took a free kick and passed the ball directly to the German team's goal with a long pass.
Lin Yun jumped high and beat Boateng to header, but unfortunately he missed the ball and hit Rooney's head directly.
Before Rooney could react, he felt a sudden pain in his head. When he turned around, he found that the football was flying towards the upper right corner of the goal.
"Ah?"
Did I shoot?
Rooney himself was confused, but others could see clearly.
Ram was so anxious that he forgot his height and immediately rushed over to head the ball to clear the ball, but he collided with Neuer who moved laterally to block the ball.
Neuer flew across the ball desperately, dragged the ball out of the crossbar with one hand, and fell heavily to the ground, but suddenly he felt something pressing under him.
I looked down and said, "Oh, Captain, why are you here?"
Ram glanced at him resentfully, pushed him away, rubbed his chest and stood up.
Lin Yun shook his head and slapped Rooney hard on the head.
He did make this goal unintentionally, but if Rooney reacted faster, took advantage of the situation and hit it hard, the ball might have gone in. Who knew that Little Fatty was so stupid that he still thinks that Gerrard kicked the ball to his head...
Of course, all this becomes a different story when Lineker comes to his mouth.
"Gerrard passed the ball to the German team's goal. Lin Yun passed the header to Rooney. Rooney headed the ball to the upper right corner, but Neuer reacted quickly and blocked England's shot again..."
Corner kick for England.
The two sides continued to gather in the German team's penalty area, and Gerrard came to the corner flag area and once again passed the ball to the German team's goal with a long pass...
It’s hard to write without scoring, fellow veterans~~
