Chapter 973： One thousand nine hundred and sixty six-2014

9731966-2014

The visiting team locker room.

In this game, England drew the visiting team's locker room.

Of course, since their white home jersey and the Dutch team's orange home jersey do not conflict in color, the Three Lions still play in white in this game.

At this time, assistant coach Moya was shouting, "Guys! Hurry up! Hurry up!"

He is urging the players to hurry out and warm up.

It is clear.

Even Moya who has experienced many battles. In a stadium like the World Cup, it will be equally tense.

"Moya, don't be so nervous."

Gao Bo said to his assistant.

"This is the World Cup... the quarterfinals."

Moya took a deep breath.

"It's just the quarterfinals." Gao Bo smiled.

Moya nodded.

He admired Gao Bo for this.

This man never seemed to know what tension was.

He is always so confident.

Gao Bo is not in the locker room.

Instead, stand on the sidelines and watch the players warm up.

He did not speak.

The televised footage stayed on him several times and gave him several close-ups.

However, before the players warmed up, he went back to the dressing room.

After about three minutes, the players warmed up and returned to the locker room.

Gao Bo looked at the players, and the first sentence made the players smile: "Unfortunately, it was not in the final to meet Holland..."

The players laughed.

They certainly understand why the head coach said that.

Because the opponent is the uncrowned king...In other words, they have never won a World Cup final.

If this is the final, wouldn't England win it?

A joke calmed down the players' nervousness.

.......

"Very well, I am very satisfied to see that everyone is in good spirits."

Gao Bo has a smile on his face.

"This game is the only way for us to go further. For this game, my requirements are very simple..."

"victory!"

The players suddenly shouted together!

"Yes! It's victory!"

Gao Bo laughed.

"I don't want anything except victory!"

"The Netherlands is a difficult opponent. Among them are some key players. I don't need to emphasize their abilities. I believe you all know them well."

"What I want to say is, no matter who the opponent is! No matter how powerful they are! They can't stop us from moving forward! They can't stop us from embracing victory!"

Gao Bo paused for a moment and looked at the players around him.

A pair of eyes were looking at her.

"Maybe it will be difficult, maybe it will be easier than we thought!"

"Until the game is over, no one knows what will happen."

"But! I ask you, everyone! From the first minute of the game, with the belief that you will win! Focus! Without fear, no one should relax until the whistle is blown at the end of the game!"

"The one who laughs last is qualified to taste the most delicious fruit of victory!"

There was a pause.

Gao Bo looked at his players.

He is smiling.

With a confident smile.

"Go! Go on this field to capture your glory, the highest honor of football! Tell them, we will keep going! Tell them! We will not be the uncrowned king, we...are new king!"

A roar came from the scene!

The new king!

As a professional football player!

Who doesn't know what this means.

World Cup champion!

The highest honor in world football!

The honor that every football player strives for!

For this champion!

Countless people laughed!

Countless people wept.

Countless people are sad.

Countless people are persistent!

They held their heads high.

Towards the new water source stadium in El Salvador.

.....

The other side.

Home team locker room.

Head coach Van Gaal is doing the final tactical explanation and analysis.

This has been told many times.

So, some players listened very seriously.

Some players’ attention is on the LCD screen in the locker room.

That was the final of the last World Cup.

Video of the Dutch team against Spain.

This is a day that countless Dutch fans will remember.

June 3, 2010.

Four years ago.

If Robben can score a single goal.

If there is no red card in overtime, Heitinga will be sent off.

If Iniesta shoots slightly wide.

The Dutch may have achieved the goal they have longed for for decades.

however.

There is nothing if.

Things that have passed can never come back again.

Someone looked at Robben.

really.

Robben at the moment lowered his head slightly.

Grasping the lower edge of the stool.

It was so pale!

That is Robben's biggest demon.

In other words...this is the most single-handed miss in his career.

If that single-handedly made...

Robben gritted his teeth.

To win this World Cup!

Luo old man thought to himself.

Many of the Dutch players who participated in the last World Cup did the same.

This failure is their motivation in this World Cup!

....

"Welcome to the new Salvador Stadium! What you are watching is the third match of the quarter-finals of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil! The opponents are England and the Netherlands! Two giants from continental Europe , Will compete for a ticket to advance to the semi-finals in the South American continent!!!"

"The last runner-up Dutch team maintained an excellent state in this World Cup! And their opponent England is also in good shape! This game will return to the focus of global attention!"

While the narrator was talking.

The televised footage swept across the stands of the stadium.

In the central stand, England fans played a huge banner.

First is the portrait of Sir Bobby Charlton holding up the Hercules Cup, and then under the portrait, it says: 1966

Bobby Charlton, was the captain of England.

In 1966, the England team won the World Cup held in England.

This is also the only World Cup champion in England so far.

Now...forty-eight years.

And on the other end of the banner.

It's Gerrard, the captain of the team.

The same is the pattern holding the trophy high.

Below the pattern, it says: 2014.

Two-time captain, raised two championship trophies.

obviously,

This is what the fans expect!

At the same time the Dutch fans who saw this scene were somewhat curious.

Although these days, many media are saying that the Netherlands is better than England and they have more experience in the World Cup knockouts.

But when this pattern comes out, it can also be seen as a counterattack from England fans.

Although England hasn't been mixed up all these years.

However, they still won the World Cup.

Players from both sides filed out from the player channel.

Everyone could see the banner held high by the England fans.

Gerrard tidied up his captain's armband.

Champion...

Veteran Gerrard.

Fire began to appear in his eyes.
