LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 187
The capital of Mexico.
Inside the hotel.
He Weitui held an A4 paper in his hand, pushed open the bedroom door and walked in, "Jiang Shu, the commentary schedule for the first round of the World Cup knockout match is out."
Jiang Shu, who was chatting with Yang Ruowei, put down his phone and asked with interest, "Brother Wei, which game are we commentating?"
He Wei handed the schedule in his hand to Jiang Shu and said, "The first game of the knockout match, the island country vs. Iceland!"
Jiang Shu raised his eyebrows and smacked his lips.
"The match between the island country and Iceland is interesting, interesting."
Speaking of which.
In this World Cup, the island country football team created two miracles.
The first miracle was that in the first round of the group stage, they were beaten 8-0 by the Norwegian team.
This created the biggest score difference in the history of the recent World Cups and was permanently nailed to the pillar of shame in history.
Another miracle.
In the first round, they were clearly beaten.
In the next two games, they actually won all of them.
One of them was against the British team, one of the world's football powers.
They also defeated it.
In the end, with two wins and one loss, the island team miraculously made it to the knockout stage.
This restored the confidence of the island fans who were originally heartbroken.
Especially after learning that their island team's opponent in the first round of the knockout stage was Iceland.
The whole country was jubilant.
Even several female stars who specialize in shooting bed action scenes shot a few more films to celebrate.
A team that can make it to the World Cup knockout stage and enter the top 16.
Although most of them are strong teams, there are also some who got in by chance.
And Iceland.
is exactly one of them.
If it weren't for the fact that several main players of the Mexican team were injured in that crucial battle.
Iceland, which is not ranked high in the world, would not have made it to the knockout stage.
So, compared with other teams in the top 16.
Iceland should be considered one of the softest persimmons.
The island team was lucky and drew the Iceland team.
Not only the players and coaches of the island team were delighted.
In the island country, people all over the country were very happy.
Although the football strength of the island team ranks first in Asia.
However.
In the decades since the World Cup was held, the best result of the island team is only the top 16.
But this time, they were lucky and drew the Iceland team.
The world ranking of the Iceland team is more than ten places lower than their island team!
As long as there is no unexpected situation.
There is a great probability that they will win the Iceland team.
Thus breaking the team's history, for the first time, they made it to the quarterfinals of the World Cup.
What a glorious and historic achievement!
On the football forum of the island country, many islanders had already opened champagne before the game to celebrate the victory of this game in advance.
"In the first round of the knockout round, we played against Iceland. Iceland is a small country with only 300,000 people. I heard that their eleven players are all part-time players and are not worth mentioning at all."
"Yes, I can only say that our luck in the draw is really good. Facing such an opponent, I don't know how to lose!"
"The quarterfinals, the quarterfinals! After tomorrow's game, we can proudly announce to the world that our island country is in the quarterfinals!!"
"It doesn't matter if we were beaten 8-0 by Norway in the first game of the World Cup, as long as we can enter the quarterfinals , and even further, make it to the semi-finals of the World Cup, our World Cup will be perfect! ! "
"Compared to the populous country next door, the fans of our island country are already too happy. Not only can we enter the World Cup stably every time, but this time we will also make it to the quarter-finals with a high probability. I guess the fans next door will cry with envy. "
"No more words, I originally saved one million yen, intending to spend a night with Miss Hata Yui. But I chose to bet this part of the money on our island team! I like football more than women!"
In the island country.
The whole country is basically a voice supporting the island team to beat Iceland in the round of 16, break through history, and make it to the quarter-finals.
In this atmosphere.
The most direct result is on the island country's gambling platform.
For the odds of the game between the island country and the Icelandic team.
The odds of the island team are very low, and you can only win ten yuan for almost one hundred yuan.
Iceland's odds are very high.
You can earn four or five hundred yuan for a hundred yuan.
One reason is that many fans of the island country support their own national team.
Another reason.
From the perspective of paper strength.
If both teams play steadily.
There is really no reason for the island country team to lose the game.
The fans of the island country chose to bet their money on their own country's team.
But.
What the fans of the island country don't know is.
In China, which is not far away.
Many fans feel that they can't make money in China.
They have expanded their horizons to the world.
As an island country with a prosperous gambling market.
Of course, it is not surprising that many domestic fans have targeted it.
That's right.
In terms of football strength, China is indeed far inferior to the island country.
But in the matter of gambling.
Looking at the world, no country's fans will be a match for Chinese fans.
Because they have a great wizard of the world, Jiang Shu!
In the commentary booth at the World Cup.
While explaining the game, he performed magic on the spot.
…………
The next day.
Mexico City.
Today is a sunny day.
10 am Mexico time, 10 pm Yanjing time, 9 pm Taiwan time.
The first match of the World Cup knockout stage.
This match between the Taiwan team and the Iceland team is about to start.
In the audience seats.
Most of the audience wore the blue and white jerseys of the Taiwan team.
As for the fans of the Iceland team, they only occupied a small space in the huge audience seats.
There is no way.
The population of the Icelandic team is really too small.
Even the national team players have other jobs part-time.
It is even more impossible to organize too many people to watch the game on site.
So.
It is obviously in faraway Mexico.
The fans of the island team cheered loudly at the scene, but it seemed like the island team was at home.
On the football field.
Several players of the island team were warming up.
Looking at the Icelandic players not far away, their faces were full of confidence.
"Today, we will definitely win!"
"The cherry blossoms in my hometown are about to bloom, and it will be Miss Keiko's birthday in a few days. Let me treat this game as a birthday gift to her."
"Millions of fans and spectators at home are watching how we beat the Icelandic team and enter the quarterfinals of the World Cup. Later on the field, we will play with all our strength, show our spirit, and give a big show to the fans at home!"
