Chapter 723 Bailey's Blessing
The battle situation on the first match day of the World Cup was quickly spread throughout the world through modern media means.
For the first game and the opening game, it was a draw again, which attracted the exclamation of many world media.
"Global Sports": "1:1! Two goals but only a draw. Is it true that the 'curse of the opening game' of the World Cup cannot be unraveled?"
"World Football News": "As the host, the South African team lived up to expectations and took the lead in completing the first goal in this World Cup, but they did not stick to the end, 1:1. This is acceptable for Mexico, but South African fans A slightly regrettable result!"
"Football World": "Many firsts of this World Cup were born in the opening game, the first touch, the first steal, the first yellow card, the first goal... Although the result was a handshake between the two sides. And, but the birth of the goal also means that the fierce competition has officially begun!"
For this game, most football reporters and professionals did not pay much attention except for exclaiming. Neither the South African team nor the Mexican team are traditionally powerful in the world, and neither have a huge influence. They are not the favorites to win the championship. If it weren't for the fact that these two teams were the protagonists of the opening match, I am afraid that the attention would have declined.
Obviously, it was the other game on the first match day that surprised these media workers even more.
After the opening match, the other two teams in Group A also kicked off on time two hours later.
The final result was that the traditional European giants France and the South American powerhouse Uruguay fought 0:0, also shaking hands.
This score made many people exclaim inconceivably. Although France has started to go downhill in recent years, especially after Zidane retired, the French team is a bit of a hero, but anyway, the Gallic Rooster is still the world leader. Recognized as a strong team, even the odds of winning this World Cup are among the top five.
As for the Uruguay team, although the strength is good, after all, there is no real underdog team that can reach the top 32 knockout stage of the World Cup, but obviously they cannot compete with the French team in terms of influence or strength.
But the final score was 0:0. This was the second game of this World Cup, but it was a draw again, which was quite an upset.
"The French team led by Henry and Ribery was full of pride and ambition before the expedition, but on the soil of South Africa, their performance was extremely disappointing!"
"They don't seem to be able to shoot. From the statistical point of view, the number of shots of the French team is far ahead of Uruguay, but their probability of hitting the goal frame is too low. It is no wonder that they shot non-stop throughout the game, but Nothing!"
"The French team does not seem to be a whole. They are fighting on their own on the field. With all due respect, perhaps it is more appropriate to describe it as a mess!"
The first upset in this World Cup broke out, and the French team can be said to have been pushed to the cusp of the storm. Both the game process and the result of the game were unsatisfactory. Naturally, they were greeted by repeated condemnations from the media and fans and criticism.
The unruly French team sat on the crest of the torment for at least a day before being "rescued" by others.
It was England and Italy who saved them. In the first round of the competition in Group C, the Three Lions, known as the most powerful team in the past 20 years, had a bad start. They were tied 1:1 by the American team in North America. Then, Italy was tied 1:1 by Paraguay, also from South America.
Both England and Italy are traditional powerhouses in world football, and they are also one of the favorites to win the World Cup. As a result, they all fell to the ground.
The attention of the media and fans was diverted one after another, and they began to criticize the two teams.
And many powerful teams are hard to find a victory, and many people exclaimed that this World Cup is really a ghost. Not only did many strong teams perform poorly in the first round, but there are so many draws. Is it the "curse of the opening game" Has it evolved into a "first round draw spell"?
Amidst the exclamations and doubts, the Brazilian football king Pele appeared in front of the camera again. He first criticized the performance of certain teams, and then talked about what he thought was the biggest favorite to win the championship.
"A truly strong team will not be afraid of any challenge. At any moment and on any venue, they can show their best side and win the final victory."
"I think Brazil is such a team. Of course, it's not because I'm a Brazilian that I look at them differently. In fact, Brazil is currently the team that has won the most World Cups. They know how to adjust their game. status, how to deal with such a game, they are undoubtedly very strong, their experience and strength will help them go further!"
"Of course, there is another team that I am very optimistic about, and that is the Spanish team from Europe. Perhaps in the past century, the Matador Legion has not achieved convincing results in international competitions, but in the That all changed after they won Euro 20 and the Confederations Cup thereafter.
They have the best players in the world, amazing super players in every position, most of them have played in previous European Cups, so they are a real champions team.They are very competitive and they play such good football.Therefore, I think they will be one of the biggest favorites in this World Cup, and even their chances of winning, I think, are even greater than that of Brazil! "
Pele's sudden speech made countless media and fans exclaim. If their voices could be heard by Pele King, maybe the fans would run to him, grab his ears and shout: "This year's competition There are already many upsets in the World Cup, please let the Brazil and Spain teams go, we don’t want to see any more upsets, so please don’t harm these two strong teams!”
I have to say that as a player, Bailey is extremely good, and can even be said to be the best player of that era. The title of "Ball King" is the best affirmation for him.
But as a commentator and "forecaster", it is clear that Bailey is not qualified.He seems to have a strong aura of "Deception". Under normal circumstances, he praises who is unlucky, and he is optimistic about which team will be eliminated. It also won the second reputation - crow's mouth.
Originally, many media and fans were still complaining about the poor performance of the teams they liked and supported. As soon as Bailey's remarks came out, they immediately attracted attention to the king of the ball and the two teams he praised.
The former legendary captain and current head coach of Brazil, Dunga, was very frightened by the sudden "optimism" of the football king. If others praised and praised him, he would accept it frankly. "Crow mouth" Bailey, this made him unable to calm down.
Whoever blacks out the goal, whoever gets the favor is unlucky, what this man said is comparable to the law of energy conservation, it's frightening to think about it.
Dunga wanted to shut up Pele, who was "a disservice", but let's not talk about Pele's label of the king. He can only respond with a "humble" attitude just because Pele is Brazil's national hero.
"Thank you very much for Mr. Ball King's compliment. We are a very strong team, but any team that can enter the World Cup is worthy of respect. If we want to go further, we must work hard for Prepare for every game and go all out!"
Dunga's response was a bit flustered, and when the first round of Group G started, Dunga seemed a little frightened.Especially after the Brazilian team conceded the first goal in the first half, this Brazilian coach, who had a good team leadership record in both the player and coach era, almost didn't directly faint and passed out.
Brazil's first opponent in the group stage is the North Korean team from Asia. It stands to reason that Brazil, the five-star champion of the World Cup, has the potential to crush the North Korean team, which entered the World Cup for the first time in history.
Throughout the first half, the Brazilian team pressed down on North Korea and beat them fiercely, but in the end, the Samba Army was inexplicably pierced by the opponent's counterattack.
This will inevitably make people think of the "blessing" of Bailey with the crow's mouth. Such a magical power makes people feel chills all over the body just thinking about it.
Fortunately, the Brazilian team is indeed much stronger than the North Korean team in terms of strength. In the second half of the game, the team had an absolute advantage in the game. Then the right back Maicon was called a zero-angle super world wave and the forward Elano was low. Shot, helped Brazil score two goals in a row, and finally won with a score of 2:1.
This is a very difficult reversal victory. Originally, the Korean team was recognized as the weakest team in Group G. There was no suspense that the Brazilian team defeated them. However, after the game, Dunga said in an interview , I was so excited that I almost cried.
I don't know if he is for this hard-won reversal, or for him and his team to break the "blessing" (curse) of Pele with the crow's mouth.
"We are a team with strong strength and a glorious tradition. Yes, we won the final victory and got three valuable points. Although the process is very difficult, there is nothing more happy than winning. I am proud of the Proud of my players and I'm sure we'll go far!"
The excited remarks made by Dunga in an interview after the game were quickly put on the headlines of their respective newspapers by the media. Unexpectedly, when the Brazilian fans celebrated the victory, the football king Pele jumped out again. It's a bit of a gesture of not giving up on one's home country.
"I expected this victory a long time ago. Yes, Brazil is one of the biggest favorites to win the World Cup. No matter what the process is, the victory will always belong to them."
"Of course, I would also like to thank Dunga and his boys. Some people always like to find all kinds of reasons and excuses for their poor performance, and some even think that my mouth has 'poisoned' them. However, the fact It proves that their point of view is wrong, and the Brazilian team has helped me fight back with practical actions. I am not a crow mouth! Whoever I praise will win, and whoever is the best!"
"So, I will continue to bless the Brazilian team! I believe they will not let me down and the fans all over the world!"
At the end of his speech, Bailey also enthusiastically cast an expectant wink at another team he was optimistic about: "Brazil has scored three points, now it's up to Spain. Ha, their opponent is Who? Oh, it's Switzerland! These are not two teams of equal weight and there's no reason why Spain won't win. So, I wish them a victory in advance and a good start to the World Cup!"
PS: I had something to go out today, and it was close to [-] pm when I came back, so the update is late, sorry, there are still two updates, guaranteed, and I am serious about playing football!
