Chapter 614 Adjustment of the Blue and White Legion! The birth of the top 8 [ask for a monthly ticket]

With an eleven-match ban and a fine of [-] pounds, FIFA's punishment for Crazy Li is not insignificant.And such a final result immediately blocked the passionate and indignant mouths of those people with ulterior motives, leaving them speechless for a while.Even most of the fans and the media who are "watching the excitement and not being a big deal" expressed that they can accept such a final penalty.

After all, such things can be found in history——

Back then [Big Phil] Scolari, when coaching the Portuguese team, also punched the Serbian player Dragutinovic in a game. The plot was completely similar to the Madman Lee incident. However, at that time, FIFA’s penalty for Scolari was much lighter than that of Madman Lee.

In addition to Crazy Li, the other most important person involved in the "fighting incident", Mexican coach Caral Gado, was directly suspended by FIFA for 50000 games and fined [-] pounds.

For Caralgado, the [-]-match suspension seems extremely severe and harsh, but in a practical sense, it is far lower than the punishment for Madman Li.Because Caralgado was originally just an ordinary tactical coach of the team, and the most important work was carried out off the court. It didn't make any sense whether he appeared on the coach's bench on the sidelines during the game.

The only thing that hurts Caralga is the estimated £50000 fine.This Mexican coach is not like Crazy Li, who has a net worth of over 50000 million pounds. The [-] pounds almost catch up with his income for half a year!
A generation of football king Maradona was not punished by FIFA as a victim.

FIFA President Sepp Blatter even used the camera to express his condolences to Marshal Ma when facing reporters, and on behalf of the World Cup Organizing Committee in South Africa, he expressed his sincere apology to Marshal Ma for the brawl.

Of course, everyone understands that this is just an attitude to erect a healthy image of the Football Federation.

What's more, the reason why Marshal Ma didn't get involved in the fight was not because the former "No. [-] Young and Dangerous Boy in the Greenery" had changed his ways, but because Marshal Ma had lost his fighting power after entering middle age.

In addition to punishing the parties involved, the football associations of Mexico and Argentina did not escape punishment-both parties were fined 100000 pounds and delivered within ten days.

In the penalty of this incident, FIFA showed a new image of fairness, justice, timely and fast health that was rarely seen before. Whether it is the punishment or the timeliness, it has won the praise of the media and fans.

As for such a penalty, neither Crazy Li, Caralgado, nor the football associations of the two countries had any objection and expressed their obedience.This [coach fight incident], which caused a sensation all over the world, came suddenly and went quickly. In less than 24 hours, it came to an end in a hurry.

Of course, the media and fans will continue to talk about it later.

……

……

It seems that it has long been doomed that every game about the Argentine team will cause some vigorous events other than football games, which makes many neutral fans enjoy watching.

时间截至到7月3日中午12：00，2010年南非世界杯8强之中已经有四个席位诞生，接下来的四场八分之一决赛，将进行的更加残酷和激烈。

The smoke of gunpowder continues to pervade South Africa.

At 7:3 local time on July 14rd in South Africa, at the Durban Stadium, the 00th round of the eighth final match started amidst the attention of the public. [The Oranje] Netherlands team met the World Cup [little dark horse] Slovakia.The Dutch team won all three games in the group stage, showing an unparalleled competitive spirit and a very stable state. Therefore, before the game started, most of the media, fans and sports betting companies were more optimistic about Van Marwijk's team!

And the final result of the game also normally reflects the strength gap between the two teams——

In the group stage, Slovakia stepped on the corpse of the last World Cup champion Italy to enter the round of 16. In the end, they lost the game 1:2. They only scored a penalty in the last 8 seconds of the game.

Sneijder, the core midfielder of [The Oranje], passed and shot, while [Peter Pan] Robben relied on his skillful counterattack to make a sudden shot in the horizontal direction and made a long-range shot in the famous 'Roben area'.These two superstars who almost single-handedly sent Inter Milan and Bayern Munich to the European Champions Cup final last season, worked together to win a top 8 seat for the Dutch team!

The fifth seat in the top 2010 of the 8 World Cup in South Africa was born——

【Oranje】Netherlands! ! ! ! ! ! !

……

Two hours later, at 16:00, at the Ellis Park Stadium in Johannesburg, there was another round of [-]. Two South American teams - [Five-Star Samba Legion] Brazil and Chile met on a narrow road and launched a fierce fight!

The strength gap between the two sides is obvious, and the young marshal Dunga did not give the Chilean the slightest chance——

In the 35th minute of the first half, the full-on attacking Brazil team had already won six corner kicks, and it was the sixth corner kick that helped Brazil open the scoring. The full-back Maicon took a corner kick on the right side, and the central defender Juan dryly jumped up.

Just 3 minutes later, the Brazilian team made a comeback——

The frontcourt trident Robinho, Kaka and Fabiano played a fantastic rhythm. Kaka, one of the "Four Great Kings", pierced through the Chilean defense with a straight kick, helping Sevilla forward Fabiano, past the goalkeeper, and rewrite the score to 2:0.
In the 59th minute, the Brazilian team sealed the victory. Ramires, the midfielder who replaced Melo, drove straight into the midfield and assisted Robinho to score after passing several players. The score of the game was finally fixed at 3:0.
The Brazilian team, aiming for the sixth Hercules Cup, showed strong and unshakable dominance in every second of the game. They did not give the fellow South American Chile team the slightest chance, and easily stepped into the top 2010 ranks of the 8 World Cup in South Africa.

The Brazil team, the sixth in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa won the top eight seats!

……

……

That night.

HPC Sports Center.

All the members of the Argentina team watched the two full games between the Netherlands and Brazil in the conference center.This is the homework that Li Tongfan has asked every player to complete since the opening of the World Cup in South Africa - to watch every ongoing game.

After watching the game, every Hammer looked inquiringly at the 'boss' sitting in the front row, until Li Tongfan stood up triumphantly, turned around and smiled, and said: "Disband", the Hammers breathed a sigh of relief, stood up one by one, and stood up one by one, as if they were fleeing, pushing each other and scrambling to get out of the conference center.

The coaches watching this scene burst into laughter.

Watching the game is a task that every player must complete every day.

And after watching the game, if Li Tongfan is not in a good mood, he will let the players stay and talk about their views and analysis on the game one by one, analyzing why the winning team wins and why the losing team loses...

If the players' analysis is well-founded, it's fine.

If the final analysis results are not satisfactory to him, then the consequences will be very serious—maybe Li Tongfan will sit on the rostrum and personally analyze for you for four or five hours, spitting all over the place until late at night, causing you to completely collapse, or, maybe Li Tongfan will accompany you to the training ground, and carry out physical training until you are tired of spitting...

But today, everyone originally thought that the leader who received a FIFA ban plus a fine should be in a bad mood, so when the Hammers watched the game just now, they concentrated and thought a lot, and prepared a lot of analysis and wording to deal with the next analysis stage...

Who knows, it turned out that Li Tongfan was in a good mood today, so it's unnecessary to analyze the magic horse!

Soon, the players all fled, and the conference center was much empty.

The coaches all stayed, and the smiles on everyone's faces turned into worry.

In front of the players, as coaches, they try to maintain an optimistic mood and avoid damaging the players' confidence and morale. However, when only the coaching staff is left in the conference center, everyone can't help but think of a super problem that the team must face——

In the upcoming quarter-finals, they will lose [God on the sidelines].

Lose the strongest link the franchise has ever had.

This sudden disaster is obviously an unbearable test for the newly reorganized 【8-man coaching staff】. In the current Argentine coaching staff, except for the pillar figure of Crazy Li, almost none of the other 7 people can stand alone in a super event like the World Cup.

They looked at Li Tongfan.

Everyone hopes that this magical guy can come up with a perfect solution to help the team solve this problem as he has done many times before... However, this time, Li Tongfan didn't seem to have any intention of taking this opportunity to talk about solving the problem of his absence. He smiled and glanced at a few colleagues, then turned around, and walked out of the conference center gate leisurely and step by step.

The remaining 7 people look at me and I look at you. I don’t know what Li Tongfan means.

"Li, hey~~ What do you think of this...?"

Kempes stood up, and originally wanted to call Li Tongfan to stop, but who knew that the guy left too quickly, as if he was rushing to a prostitute, and disappeared without a trace after turning around, so Kempes had to turn around and ask several other colleagues.

"Well, I think what Li means is very clear. We have to solve this matter by ourselves."

Li Bing is very good at trying to figure out people's minds, and he basically expressed Li Tongfan's thoughts.

That's right.

Lao Li just hopes that the coaching staff can rely on their own strength to negotiate a solution to the problem as soon as possible. From now on, they will gradually adapt to the working state without him.Moreover, [Ball King] Maradona wants to take command of the next game, he must persuade other teammates to accept him, and Lao Li does not want to use orders to complete this matter.

"In this case... Well, maybe we should really think about how we should deal with the possible difficulties when Li is not around. We can't put all the pressure on Li's shoulders alone." Kempes sat down, looked at Li Bing, and said, "Li, you are the assistant coach of the team. In your opinion, how should we solve the current problem?"

Li Bing lowered his head to think, his fingers gently stroking the smooth surface.

After a while, he raised his head and said slowly, "Okay, let me share my opinion... I think the most important thing now is to establish a person who can represent Li Xing as the head coach when Li Xing is not on the sidelines. Only in this way can the coaching staff make a unified voice during the game and avoid confusion when they encounter difficulties."

After saying these words, other people's eyes immediately focused on Li Bing's face.

According to the long-established "unspoken rule" in international football, when the head coach is unable to direct the game, the assistant coach should exercise the power of the head coach. Therefore, at this time, in principle, Li Bing is definitely the No. 1 choice to become the acting head coach.

Could it be that what Li Bing meant was that he should exercise the rights of the head coach?
Is this a fight for power?

In order to maintain his image and avoid exposing his yin and yang, Maradona, who was still wearing a training hat, twitched his eyebrows. He was about to speak, but Li Bing went on to say: "In my opinion, among the seven of us, the most suitable candidate to be the acting head coach is none other than Diego."

As soon as this remark came out, Marshal Ma was a little dazed.

He didn't expect Li Bing to say that.

He originally wanted to stand up and take the right to take the initiative. You must know that it is not Maradona's style to be humble. As long as it is what he wants, Maradona will never give it to others... He just didn't expect that Li Bing, who is an assistant coach, would recommend himself on his own initiative.

"Could it be that this Chinese has already seen through the fact that I have the super potential to become the second Madman Li? What a horrible way to look at people!"

Marshal Ma was very happy.

When Maradona was still immersed in deep self-obsession, Redondo nodded with a smile: "I agree." [Prince] Redondo will always be like this, his elegance allows him to only speak his own opinion, never explaining too much, looking a bit indifferent to the world, and a bit proud of staying out of things.

[Wizard] Veron who was sitting next to Redondo spread his hands and shrugged: "Good idea!"

And [Zon of the Wind] Caniggia, who was called "Maradona as a close comrade-in-arms" by the media, naturally would not have the slightest opinion on such a proposal. His expression was as serious as ever, and he nodded to express his opinion.

[God of War] Batistuta looked at Maradona, then at Kempes, and finally said with a smile: "Well, among the seven of us, only Diego and Li are more similar, because they are the same kind of people. Li has given the Argentine team a unique character during the previous period. Therefore, Diego is the most suitable candidate for the team to maintain this character."

"Hey, we've all thought of this..." Hearing Batty say this, Kempes laughed, and there was no loss on this gentleman's face: "Gabriel, I know, the reason why you said this is to explain to me why you chose Diego. In fact, there is no need for this at all, because the candidate in my mind is also him."

Speaking of this, Kempes's expression suddenly became serious, and his tone was full of emotion: "To be honest, I never thought that this trip to the World Cup would make me live so much... It was Li who made me figure out a lot of problems that had been troubling me before in a short period of time... Rich and detailed tactical knowledge, confidence that surpasses everyone, care and diligence, and constant thinking... What is the cornerstone of becoming an excellent head coach? And it was also in yesterday's game that I suddenly discovered What I have been lacking in myself, and what I have discovered, has made me a head coach who has failed to the extreme in the past seven or eight years. Fate will never favor anyone. What we need to do is very simple—stop complaining.”

Kempes was a little excited when he said that, he stood up and patted the table fiercely, walked quickly to Li Bing, and said sincerely: "Li, I think, now I finally know why Li is willing to choose you as an assistant coach. You have insight that none of us have. Vote for you."

Maradona laughed out loud. He leaned against the back of the chair, put his feet on the surface, and said triumphantly: "Haha, Mario, if you can be more adventurous in the game like Li, I don't think you will have to wait until the next time."

Kempes wiped his sweat.

Seven people reached an agreement in a very harmonious atmosphere.

Li Bing feels relaxed in such a working environment. This kind of love for football and self-analysis that everyone strictly prohibits humor is absolutely extinct in domestic clubs.He feels that through his own efforts, he is slowly integrating into this coaching team full of super big names.

After getting interested, Li Bing, who had been always casual, made a rare little joke: "Hey, hey, guys, I thought some of you would recommend me, but I didn't expect to pass Diego so soon. Anyway, I'm also an assistant coach. Aww, I'm so disappointed..."

A burst of laughter erupted in the conference center.

The invisible tense atmosphere that permeated the coaching staff disappeared at this moment.The impact of Li Tongfan's absence on the atmosphere of the entire coaching team was also unconsciously minimized.

……

Outside the conference center.

Li Tongfan was eavesdropping furtively.

10 minutes ago, Lao Li did indeed quickly disappear into the conference center.However, he didn't go too far. After avoiding the sight of everyone, he quickly turned back quietly and leaned towards the door to eavesdrop.

Lao Li wanted to know if these guys could solve the problem.

And when the laughter finally came out, Lao Li nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that the matter was almost resolved, and he didn't have to worry anymore.

Lao Li smiled triumphantly, and was about to disappear as quickly as Kempes and the others hadn't noticed. Who knew that just as soon as he turned around, he suddenly bumped into someone behind him. The unsuspecting Lao Li was struck with stares, and fell back miserably with his buttocks, smashing open the door of the conference center behind his butt, and fell to the ground...

Then--

"Ah, ah, ah, ah..."

"Be careful, don't squeeze me..."

"Aww, damn it!!"

There was a burst of exclamation, but before Li Tongfan could get up, he saw a group of people rushing in from the door like dominoes toppled, rushing towards him, and instantly buried him in the 'mountain of meat'...

Inside the conference center, Kempes and others were dumbfounded.

Which one is this playing?
"Uh, what's going on? Oh, I went the wrong way, I went the wrong way..."

The goalkeeper Romero, who was lying on the top of the crowd, was the first to react. This big man with a height of more than 1.9 meters got up with a flattering smile, greeted him, slapped his butt, and disappeared at the gate.

"Yes, yes, I went the wrong way, hehe..."

"I was pushed in!"

"Go on, hey, go on..."

The performance of the other Hammers was not much better than Romero's. One by one, they figured out the situation before them, got up in a panic, and disappeared automatically in a hurry.

In the end, only Li Tongfan was left lying on the carpet in a "big" shape, his legs and feet pulled out, foaming at the mouth.

Maradona came over, squatted down, lowered his head, and looked at Lao Li with a smile: "Hey, Li, why did you bump in suddenly? Could it be...you have been eavesdropping outside?"

"Eavesdropping? Aww, how is this possible? Hey, Diego, it's familiar, but if you say that, I will sue you for defamation!"

Li Tongfan sternly denied it.

He got up from the carpet with three hands and two legs, flicked the dust off his body, looked at the seven partners, and explained seriously: "Actually... er, that, the reason is very simple, I also went the wrong way!"

As Li Tongfan said, he quickly turned around and chased him out.

Soon, an angry roar came from a distance: "You damned fellows, why don't you stop for me... and run away? Say, why do you come here to eavesdrop? Such behavior is very immoral, don't you feel ashamed?"

"Boss, you eavesdropped first, okay? We are just curious, who made you look so wretched on the door! I thought there was some wonderful story going on inside..."

It was goalkeeper Romero's voice.

"Yes, yes, we are also concerned about the team's situation. We want to come here to comfort you who have been suspended. Who knew that as soon as we came back, we saw you lying at the door like a thief... Seriously, boss, Gonzalo thought there was a thief at first, and suggested that we use a wooden stick to attack you from behind and stun you!"

This is Messi's voice.

"What, who said I was eavesdropping? I'm just cleaning the glass, that's right! Romero, you nasty guy, what should you do and call me insignificant? You want to knock me out? NND, don't run away, stop for me... Oh, I'm sorry, who the hell is so devoid of public morality, throwing a stick here, whoops..."

The roaring sounded again, and a sullen man seemed to have tripped over something, screaming again and again.

A group of people fought like this, and finally disappeared into the distant night like howling ghosts and wolves.

In the conference center.

Kempes and the others looked at each other.

In the end, everyone couldn't help laughing. From the scene just now, the big-name coaches felt the players and Li Tongfan's deep concern for the team's status. Under such a difficult situation, as long as the Argentine team can maintain such a unity atmosphere, what else can stop them from marching towards the Hercules Cup?
Laughter filled the HPC Sports Center at night.

……

……

"We support Crazy Lee!!"

"Long live Argentina!! Lee is our hero!!!"

"The Hercules Cup belongs to Argentina, the Germans go away..."

"Bratt die!"

"Crazy Li can lead the team to victory even if he is sitting in the stands!!!"

At the gate of the HPC Sports Center of the University of Pretoria, thousands of crazy Argentine fans gathered here in the early morning of the next day. They held high the head of Li Tongfan, the Argentine flag and large portraits of various big names in the team, shouted exciting slogans, and expressed their support for the head coach Crazy Li and the team!
The Argentina team is training at the ABSA Tuks Stadium.

Seeing such a scene, Li Tongfan simply opened the HPC Sports Center to the fans again, allowing these crazy fans to sit on the stone steps and cheer for the players at close range.

Seeing the blue and white waves rolling in the stands of the training ground, everyone in the team felt their confidence boosted. The impact of the 'Boss' suspension and the outside world's low opinion of the Argentine team without Crazy Li made everyone suffocate and couldn't wait to prove to the world that even if you let that person have to sit in the stands to watch the game as a spectator, you can't take away our victory!
Germans, let's fight!

……

……

time flies.

The smoke of the South African world competition is getting thicker and thicker.

On July 7, the last two fights in the quarter-finals were staged as scheduled.

At 16:00 p.m. local time in South Africa, the Asian team Japan faced the South American powerhouse Paraguay. The two sides drew 90:0 within 0 minutes. The two sides did not score in the next extra time, and finally entered a penalty shootout.

Paraguay historically entered the top 8 of the World Cup, becoming the fourth team after Uruguay, Argentina and Brazil to advance to the top 8, while the Japanese team was unfortunately eliminated, which also marked the annihilation of Asian teams in this World Cup.

At 18:00 local time in South Africa, the last eighth-final match of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa was played between Portugal and Spain, the traditional two European powerhouses. After a 10-minute fierce battle at the Green Point Stadium in Cape Town, [Matador Legion] relied on the striker [Gourd Baby] David Villa No. 603 minutes lore, defeated Portugal 1-0 and advanced to the top 8, and won the last top 8 spot! ——
