"Wonderful rescue!"
"As expected of the captain!"
"Thiago Silva continues to protect Brazil's defense with his outstanding performance!"
This rescue immediately caused a burst of applause from the Brazilian fans in the stadium.
After completing the rescue effort lightly, the sister-in-law immediately shouted to Maicon:
"Sisenando (Maicon)! Concentrate! Don't let him get past you so easily!"
Maicon didn't say anything, he just raised his hand to reply with a thumbs up, then strode to the sideline, stopping Vardy's little idea of a quick boundary kick.
Seeing this, my sister-in-law opened her mouth and directed her teammates to position themselves and defend.
Waiting for Baynes to come up and deliver the boundary ball, Vardy picked up the ball with his back and immediately passed the ball back to Ling Feng who was in charge.
Seeing that the Brazilian players were basically back on defense, he did not pass the ball rashly, but passed the ball back to the backcourt.
Through the reverse kick in the backcourt, Brazil's formation was indeed lured out.
Seeing Ling Feng taking the ball in the backcourt and returning to Vardy near the center circle, he immediately started running forward without any hesitation!
The next second, Ling Feng turned around and made an overhead pass, accurately hitting the space behind Maicon.
"Ling Feng. Long pass!"
"Vardy and Maicon are chasing him!"
"Who gets the ball first?"
The two played fast and furious on the wing, both wanting to get the ball first.
In the end, it was the younger Vardy who caught up with the ball first.
He took the ball and pushed forward. He looked up and glanced into the penalty area and found that Sturridge was closely followed by David Luiz.
At the moment of lightning, Vardy chose to cut inside.
However, just as he moved the ball out with his right foot and cut into the penalty area, a yellow figure rushed up and blocked his way.
Accurately grab the ball and directly poke the ball away from his feet!
Ding Qing took a look and saw that it was Thiago Silva, the captain and leader of the defense of Brazil!
After poking the ball away, my sister-in-law accelerated and passed the ball to midfielder Fernandinho before Ling Feng came in from behind.
Feiniao directly passed the ball to Neymar, who retreated from the left to receive the ball. The latter kept the ball and rubbed it with the instep of his outside foot, and then did a Bergkamp turn.
The movements were connected so quickly that even Henderson had no time to reach out to stop him before he passed him cleanly.
Neymar drives the ball forward!
But what stood in front of him was the last barrier in front of the defense, the captain of the Three Lions, Gerrard!
Gerrard didn't show any mercy, he just came up with a sliding tackle, knocking Neymar to the ground with the ball and others.
This tactical foul prevented Brazil's rapid counterattack.
Glancing at Neymar who was lying on the ground, covering his legs and looking in pain, Gerrard stepped forward, patted his body, and said concernedly in English:
"Hey, you okay?"
At this time, Fernandinho stepped forward and argued with Gerrard in English: "You don't need to be so harsh, right?"
"It's just part of the game."
"You've already shown off your spikes."
Seeing Gerrard being surrounded by the Brazilian midfielders, Ling Feng and Henderson rushed to the scene immediately.
"Hey, stay away from my captain!"
Henderson stood in front of Gerrard, while Ling Feng opened his arms, trying to separate
However, Fernandinho pushed him very unhappy and cursed:
"Get away! Boy!"
These words and the pushing behavior directly angered Gerrard, who was originally very calm.
He directly pulled Henderson aside, stepped forward and pushed Fernandinho with his chest, forcing him to take two steps back.
"Say it again if you are brave enough to ride a horse!"
Facing Gerrard's glare, Fernandinho gave up and was pulled away by Paulinho.
Ling Feng, on the other hand, stared at his back and silently wrote down Fernandinho's name in his notebook.
Fei Niiao, I remember you.
When you get to the Premier League, it depends on whether I can get you or not!
Seeing the conflict, other players from the two teams also rushed to the scene.
While both sides were pushing and shoving and talking dirty, the referee arrived late.
Gerrard and Fernandinho were each shown a yellow card to let them calm down.
In addition, Neymar also got up from the ground, and this small conflict was eliminated.
Neymar was fine, he was just lying on the ground pretending.
But he didn't know that it was the insidious guy who took advantage of the chaos and kicked him, causing him to suddenly turn over, trying to see clearly who kicked him.
In the end, until the players from both sides left, Neymar did not find the "real culprit" who kicked him
In the rest of the first half, the right wing guarded by Maicon became the direction of England's main attack.
Interestingly, Brazil mainly attacks England's right wing.
England's main attack is also Brazil's right wing.
Obviously, the key to the outcome of this quarter-final lies in who can hit the opponent's right side first!
After running back and forth several times, although Maicon did not obviously lose his position, he was still a little overwhelmed.
Looking at Maicon who was breathing heavily, Thiago Silva couldn't help but stepped forward and expressed concern in Portuguese:
"Sisenando, are you okay?"
"I am fine!"
Even though that’s the answer.
However, Maicon's heart had already begun to curse.
Although England's No. 21 kid is not as fast as the Welshman back then, nor is he as strong.
But, this kid can just run.
And the core strength is very strong, and even reaching out to pull it can't slow down its sprint speed much.
For Maicon, whose physical function has seriously declined, it would be better if Vardy could overtake him in one go like the Welshman did.
That way, you don't have to fight so hard to get the ball.
But he couldn't do it,
Vardy was just like a dull knife, cutting repeatedly at one time and sawing Maicon's bones.
Continuous fast-paced physical confrontation and follow-up defense are the most draining!
Fortunately, Scolari on the sidelines watched England repeatedly attack Maicon's back, leaving the former world's No. 1 right back exhausted, and quickly called Fernandinho to help defend.
This gave Maicon a chance to breathe.
In this way, the first half of the game ended with the two sides exchanging blows on the right wing.
After a short intermission, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
In the second half, because Gerrard was carrying a yellow card, Brazil shifted its attack direction and focused on the center.
Neymar became even more unscrupulous when he cut inside the center. Oscar and Paulinho frequently stepped in, trying to open England's gate from the center!
If Gerrard can be sent off from two yellows and one red, then they will definitely win!
In desperation, Ling Feng had no choice but to change from an attacking midfielder to a central midfielder, staying in the midfield area to assist in defense.
When Ling Feng, the core playmaker in the frontcourt, moves back and distributes his physical energy to the defense, the offensive threat to him and England as a whole will definitely be greatly reduced.
Even though he was still able to transition from offense to defense, he used accurate long diagonal passes to hit behind, allowing the two wingers to attack Brazil's defense.
However, the happy boy on the right was completely blocked by Marcelo and had no chance at all.
Vardy on the left has taken advantage of Maicon's duels on the wing many times.
However, without Ling Feng cutting into the middle to provide support, he could only fight alone on the wing.
However, his foot skills are not enough to allow him to get past Maicon and his sister-in-law who come to defend him every time and then complete the goal.
Even if Hodgson swapped Vardy and Sturridge, Sturridge failed to create more threats on the wing.
On the contrary, Brazil seized the opportunity and expanded the score again:
In the 65th minute of the game, Neymar dribbled along the middle, and after hitting the wall with Oscar, he passed the ball diagonally to Hulk who was on the right.
The latter dribbled the ball and passed it back in an inverted triangle. Paulinho followed up with a heavy shot that hit the upper right corner of the goal.
Two to zero!
After taking a two-goal lead, the Brazilian showed his loose nature, and his pressing and running also became a bit slack.
And five minutes later, England, whose formation was fully pressed, launched a smooth offensive!
Ling Feng hit a diagonal pass behind Maicon on the left. Vardy, who came in at high speed, got the ball and made a timely inverted triangle pass.
Ling Feng then stepped in and reached outside the penalty area. Just as he was about to take a push shot, he was overturned by Thiago Silva who rushed out of the penalty area with the ball.
Although the opportunity to kick off was missed.
However, giving his sister-in-law a yellow card and getting a perfectly positioned free kick outside the penalty area was also a good result.
Since Rooney, the first free kicker, was not on the court, this free kick should have been taken by Gerrard.
The penalty spot is about 20 meters away from the goal, and the location is very right.
However, the distance is too close, and the elevator ball or the falling leaf ball does not have enough distance to fall, but it is very suitable for a curve ball or Gerrard's heavy cannon to hit the goal.
However, the human wall is also very close. If you want to shoot a heavy cannon around the human wall, you not only need to use force, but also add some arc.
This will test the players' footwork.
At this moment, the on-site director was also very knowledgeable and pointed the camera directly at the serious-looking former Three Lions captain and free kick master Beckham in the stands.
The language of the lens is self-evident.
At this moment, millions of English fans hope that Beckham, who is sitting in the stands watching the game, can come off the field and take the free kick.
Unfortunately, this is impossible to happen
Bang!
Following Gerrard's powerful volley, although the ball flew over the heads of the wall of Brazilian players, it also directly missed the goal crossbar and flew out of the baseline.
The next second, both the English fans in the stadium and the British viewers in front of the TV all let out a lament.
The game has gone on for seventy minutes, and they are still trailing two to zero.
The chance of victory is already very slim.
At this moment, Hodgson, who felt he was helpless, also made substitutions.
In order to let the substitute players also experience the atmosphere of the World Cup, he used up all three substitutions at once.
Replaced the three main players Ling Feng, Henderson and Baynes and replaced them with Lampard, Wilshere and Luke Shaw!
This substitution decision did not come as too much of a surprise.
Seeing the substitution decision, Mr. Martin Taylor, who was doing the commentary at the scene, couldn't help but explain:
"In the 70th minute of the game, England used up all the substitution places and prepared to fight to the death!"
Even though he said so.
However, even Taylor himself knows very well that suddenly replacing the main players and replacing them with substitutes who have little playing time is basically a surrender.
What is worth mentioning is that when Lampard, wearing the No. 8 jersey, was standing on the sidelines waiting to appear, all the England fans stood up and gave him the warmest applause.
Before the World Cup started, Lampard determined that he would retire from the national team after the World Cup.
Therefore, this will be Lampard's last appearance at the World Cup.
What makes many England feel sad and missed is that this will be the last time that both Germany and Germany will appear on the court at the same time!
Gerrard is thirty-four and Lampard is thirty-six.
These two people have been with them for more than ten years and have made great contributions to the national team.
In other words, the next twenty minutes will be Shuangde's final performance in the Three Lions!
At least they could accompany the two of them through the last part of their journey.
Ling Feng, who was replaced, trotted to the sidelines, high-fived and hugged Lampard.
Returning to the bench, he high-fived his teammates one by one, took the jacket from Rooney, and sat in the empty seat next to him.
"Huha. Huha"
The intensive cup schedule, coupled with the fact that he spent most of the game on defense, made Ling Feng a little overwhelmed.
The good news is, this is his last game of the season.
The bad news is that this is the last game of the World Cup for the Three Lions.
After Ling Feng left the field, Wilshere, once known as "the core of England's midfield for the next ten years", became the core organizer on the field.
This young man who fought against Habaib on his own during his peak period, used active running and dribbling to sort out the midfield, and still played sporadic offense.
It's a pity that such an attack cannot threaten the Brazilian team's goal at all.
As time went by, in the 80th minute of the game, an episode occurred on the court.
Perhaps the victory was determined, and Neymar began to show off his tricks in front of Lampard.
Of course, Lampard didn't give him any face, he gave him a slap in the face and taught him what it means to respect his seniors!
With screams, Neymar fell to the ground like a felled tree.
Seeing this, Scolari, who was afraid that his core was injured, quickly replaced Neymar with Ramirez.
Seeing Neymar limping off the field and being helped off the field by the team doctor, the Brazilian fans at the scene also gave heartbroken and encouraging applause.
Ling Feng, who was watching this scene in the audience, also felt ripples.
Thiago Silva received a yellow card when he tackled himself and will definitely be suspended.
And now Neymar is shoveled off the field by Lampard again. I don't know if he can play in the next game against Germany.
If Neymar cannot play, will Brazil, which lacks one core player and one back, be beaten by Germany in a seven-to-one tragedy that shocked the world, as it was in history?
As soon as such a thought came up, Ling Feng threw it away.
No matter whether Brazil will be beaten by Germany in the next game, it has nothing to do with him.
All he knew was that his first World Cup trip was over.
It's time for him to think about what to do in the offseason.
