Chapter 572 The heartthrob's mistakes are also world-class

On June 6, at 21:02 pm, the England team and the Turkish team stood at Ogasayama Park Stadium in Shizuoka Prefecture.

The Shizuoka Stadium, which can accommodate 5 fans, was full of seats. Except for fans from both sides of the game, the rest of the seats were taken by fans.

As we all know, the public has always had a good impression of Britain.

As an island country, they envied the strength of the United Kingdom in the 19th century, and thanked the United Kingdom for allowing them to see the world with their eyes open.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the two countries formed an "Anglo-Japanese Alliance", and the honeymoon period lasted until the end of World War I.

Later, the United States felt that the two of them were not suitable for their own development path, so they forced several countries into the alliance, and it became a movement of several countries at once.

Originally, the young lovers were seriously talking about marriage, but they didn't expect to be turned into a multi-person event by the United States.

Ruined!
But this relationship is still a good memory in the eyes of the people in this book.For example, several of Hayao Miyazaki's works have foreigners. Most of these characters are European images, and there is a high probability that they are British.

The relationship between the two countries in the field of football is somewhat similar. I envy the strength of the England team.Every time the two teams meet, the England team starts with 3 goals.

I am envious of the great league in England, the historical tradition of British football, the dominance of the England team, and the unparalleled status of Beckham.

As an island country, the book naturally compares everything with Britain, which is stronger than itself.

Since the other party can do it, they can do it if they work hard.

Even if you can't do it, you can get close to it infinitely, which is also very beautiful.

In order to prepare for this World Cup, Benzi dare not arrange a friendly match with the England team, they are afraid that a huge loss will shake the confidence of the team.

But they have a general plan for their World Cup journey, that is, in Shizuoka Prefecture, which is blooming like cherry blossoms, and the team they choose to bury themselves is the England team.

Wither at the most beautiful moment, let life shine brilliantly at a certain point in time.

What a poignant, what a gorgeous story.

Benzi wanted to dedicate the best to the England team, but unfortunately even this humble expectation failed to come true.

Girl Sakura met an old hooligan on the way and was pinned on the lawn. After struggling for 90 minutes, she was still...
This is all old John's gossip, and the authenticity of the content is not guaranteed.

But this phenomenon is indeed intriguing, because Bangzi also set the end of the World Cup on the German team.

Old John once complained that the worst German team in history had never encountered a strong opponent from the group stage to the final.

Just like this, they stumbled all the way, relying on Ballack for offense and Kahn for defense. These two dragged their teammates all the way into the final.

However, the German team lost Ballack in the final, which made the Brazilian team cheaper in vain.

Such a German team, Beckham also wants to have.

But the England team will have to cross the two hurdles of the Turkish team and the Brazilian team next. It always feels that the England team and the German team are not playing in a difficult mode at all.

But it doesn't matter. If you want to win the World Cup, you have to have the confidence to see who will destroy who.

Of course, luck is also indispensable. I really have no temper at all when I meet a host like Bangzi in the competition.

Beckham saw Bart and Gerrard grinning stupidly through the cracks of the long guns and short guns. These two people were almost cursed by the "Double Red Club".

Although this scene is a sand sculpture, it can fully see the harmonious atmosphere in the England team.Manchester United and Liverpool players can live together in harmony, what else can't be done?

Not only that, but the external environment of the England team is also very loose.The English media, which has always been committed to exposing the facts, surprisingly reached a tacit agreement, that is, not to make up the scandal of the England team.

This is probably a rare scene in decades. The English media have tacitly set the tone of the World Cup reports. The news mainly highlights two themes.

First, the great deeds of the England team.

Second, the ugliness of the world powers.

This makes the English players generally in a good mood. Every day, they can see news of themselves praising themselves in the newspapers, and everyone feels that they are Beckham.

But this situation is only temporary. There are too many things that can be reported in the World Cup. The English media can ignore the England team for the time being, and show readers the unbearable sticks, the cleverness of the book, and the broken German chariot.

In the past two days, the English media has been circulating a joke: If there is no Kahn, the German players would already be watching TV at home.

This meme has been widely circulated, and the content is true.

As the weakest German team in nearly 50 years, the German tanks did not hold back against the Saudi team, just to show their strength to the world.

In order to make the opponents afraid of their own strength, the German team made a lot of careful thinking.

The "Sun" first broke the news. The staff of the German team revealed that Wöhler had been mobilizing the German team to use [-]% of their strength before the game and during the intermission to score as many goals as possible on the Saudi team.

When Völler kept repeating the order at half-time, certain players felt it was pointless, and they were substituted in the second half.

The "Sun" grabbed the German team and exposed many internal problems of the German team, such as the contradictions between the old and new players, and the problems between Bayern players, Leverkusen players and Dortmund players.

It made the German media very uncomfortable that their own affairs were exposed by others.

They also did everything possible to find trouble with the England team, but they had no choice but to stay in the hotel all day.No one messed around, and no one went out to fool around.

In this case, the German media can only compile some materials.

They created a bunch of data by subverting concepts to tell everyone why blacks have relatively better endurance and why other races are relatively inferior.

Then expand the question to include a marathon.

The German media began to list the secrets of African athletes dominating middle and long distance running.

First, due to backward transportation, poverty and other reasons, African children are used to running where they want to go.

Second, the genes of black people make their legs look slender and long. Studies have shown that slender calves can save 8 times the consumption per kilometer.

Third, there are plateaus all over Africa. Black children have been running under hypoxic conditions since childhood, and their lactic acid accumulation rate is relatively slow.

Fourth, the capillary network distribution of black people is relatively dense, and this structure can spread to the muscles faster.And blacks have more red blood cells and higher hemoglobin levels, which means they have more oxygen in their blood.

The German media has talked so much, in fact, just to talk about red blood cells.

They went from red blood cells to what happens when there are no red blood cells.

Lack of red blood cells, ranging from not lasting, severe renal anemia.

There is a drug that can treat such a disease, it is called EPO.This can improve the state of patients with insufficient red blood cells, and the clinical effect is good.

If this drug is used on healthy people, it will also increase the red blood cells in a short period of time, thereby improving the endurance of athletes.

Some biologists have figured out the gene sequence of red blood cells and completed the in vitro synthesis through genetic engineering. This synthetic product is called recombinant EPO, which can significantly improve the performance of athletes in endurance events.

How big is the increase?

15%!

Soon after the drug came out, it was listed as a prohibited drug and became one of the important contents of doping testing.

Tour de France champion Neil Armstrong was once regarded as a hero against cancer and the brilliance of the human spirit.Later, everyone was disappointed to find out that after paying for cancer, he relied on this drug to reach the top of the Tour de France.

悉尼奥运会100米、200米、4*100米冠军，米国运动员马里昂.琼斯就使用了这种药物，他的丈夫蒙哥马利的100米成绩一度达到9.77秒，他后来也被查出使用这种药物。

It's not that the reorganization of EPO is useful for endurance events, why is it involved in sprinting?
It is reported that the drug can also increase the fatigue resistance of athletes.

how to explain?

Just using recombinant EPO, athletes can achieve greater training intensity.

Of course, it is not good to have too much of anything except money.

The use of recombinant EPO will allow people to obtain a large number of red blood cells in a short period of time. Excessive red blood cells will bring two side effects.

First, blood pressure rises.

Second, the blood viscosity increases, which is easy to form thrombus.

It is said that there are many sudden deaths of cyclists, which are largely related to these drugs.

However, the detection of recombinant EPO is not small, and it is difficult to identify.

The German media listed the data, saying that the half-life of recombinant EPO through intravenous injection is very short, only about 7 hours, and more than 10% of the drug can be metabolized after 99.9 half-lives.

But the drug can last about 4 weeks, which is tricky.If you can't get the evidence within three days, you can't catch it anymore.

A German football media released the news in the opening game, and announced the running distance of each team after the group stage.

Statistics show that the United States is the team that runs the most in the group stage, and Senegal, Bangzi, England and Poland are also good.

But when the media reported the running distance of the players, Beckham's average running distance barely exceeded 10000 meters, which was 2000 meters lower than his average running distance in the club period.

Both reports alluded to Beckham. As an out-and-out white man, Beckham has been known for his physical fitness since his debut.

He is a Londoner through and through, how could he have so many red blood cells?
Does poverty increase altitude?

Could it be that the places where heartthrobs walk are plateaus?

The first report seemed to be popular science, but it actually accurately sniped Beckham.

But people didn't say it clearly at all, what do you want to do with them?
The second report quoted data, but the statistical caliber was vague. Anyway, you, Beckham, ran 2000 meters less per game in the World Cup.

Why has the average running distance dropped so much? Is there a drug test and I dare not take drugs, so the running distance has dropped?

Calculated in this way, the effect is more than 20%, it seems that the medicine you use is more effective!
The effect of these two reports is that 6 urine tests and 6 blood tests have been done during the World Cup, and every game has not failed.

The group stage is once a game, and the frequency of the knockout stage is even higher, once before the game and once after the game, it is really annoying.

Don't think that the doping test is like a medical examination, just provide a sample and you're done.

The detection process is not as easy as imagined. Detection is not like training, and the start and end times are determined.

The inspection time of the inspectors can be irregular, and you will only be notified before they come, and they will teleport over in a blink of an eye.

The person being tested cannot refuse the test. You can learn the location by yourself and wait for the tester to arrive.If the testing staff arrives and you are not there, they will not wait for you all the time. If there is no one for a period of time, the testing agency will count the athlete as a violation.

Accumulated three violations will be counted as a positive, and will also be punished.

The inspection process is also very cumbersome, and the inspectors will read and explain the long documents.

understand?If you understand it, we will sign it, and if you don't understand it, we will study it together.

Both rights and obligations are related to an athlete's career, and everyone must figure it out.

If there are no problems with the above, the meat scene is coming.

A large man had to urinate into two sample boxes in front of the inspectors.

What?Are you too shy to pee?
It doesn't matter, drink more water, anyway, I have been guarding, there are always times when you can't hold back, there is always a way for primitive instinct to overcome character.

What is even more embarrassing is that after the game, the water in the body is excreted due to a lot of sweating, and there is no urine for a short time.

Then you can only wait while drinking water, and sometimes it takes an hour or two to feel it.

What's even more embarrassing is that the more I want to come at this time, the less he will come, I just don't feel it.

Teammates woke up in the hotel, and Beckham had to perform urination in front of several grown men.

Is it sour?

What's even more disgusting is that every time the test is performed, the testers will cast curious eyes.

Where does the dream of girls all over the world look like this?
Or don't care if some people are devoted to him!

or just this?

Those strange thoughts came to Beckham's sight through their expressions and body language without much concealment, and he felt offended.

The doping test interfered with Beckham's normal life, and he had to waste a lot of time on this matter every time.

Beckham gets star treatment everywhere.

Of course, it is impossible for the English media to watch the German media scold their players.

They quickly took everyone to review the "Miracle of Berne".

After World War II, the German team was in a desperate situation, and the mood of the whole society was low. The German team lost to Hungary by a score of 3 to 8 in the group stage.

The two teams met again in the final. The German team conceded 2 goals first, dragged down the Hungarian team with physical fitness, and then scored 3 goals in a row, winning the 1954 World Cup.

The article describes the description of the Hungarian players to the German players at the time: "It is unbelievable that they are still full of energy until the last moment of the game!"

It is reported that the staff found the injection needles in the locker room of the German team.

Logan, the team doctor of the German team, argued that the injection was vitamin C, which was useless, but the players were more superstitious, so they used it.

After the group of German players returned home, quite a few of them got the same disease, and two of them later got cirrhosis of the liver.

The English media also attached a photo of the German player. The person said that someone told everyone that vitamin C can make mice swim in the water for an extra three hours, so many players injected it.

It is worth noting that vitamin C was considered an expensive drug in those days, players may think it is vitamin C, but maybe someone knows the actual ingredients of the drug.

The English media didn't say anything, they just compiled historical data and added some interview content.

But the attitude couldn't be more clear, if you want to play dirty, then let's play together.

Of course, these are all off-court tricks, which can only affect ordinary people, but not Beckham.

A single drug test can affect him. After all, when Hoddle took himself out of the main lineup four years ago, the media storm was much crazier than it is now.

When encountering this kind of thing, if the psychological quality is not good, the best way to deal with it is not to read newspapers or watch commentary programs. It should not be difficult.

Beckham felt that it was okay, compared with what he had experienced in these years, these were drizzle.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Gary Lineker and I will join you in a spotlight match between England and Turkey in the quarter-finals of the World Cup.

The games where the England team appears are all focus games, which has little to do with other teams.

The level of the Turkish team is between first-rate and second-rate. They are similar to teams such as Sweden, Ireland, and Denmark, and they are all old European teams.

These teams are not at the top level, but they can cause considerable problems for the world's top teams.

The Turkish team's formation is also 4-3-2-1, which is consistent with the Senegalese team, and they all want to be defensive.

I hope that the Turkish team can see their strength clearly, so as not to follow in the footsteps of the Senegal team. "

At the beginning of the game, Martin Taylor started to talk about it.

"The strength of the Turkish team is good. Hakan Suk is playing for Parma, Basturk is from Leverkusen, Emre is from Inter Milan, Alpay is from Aston Villa, Togay is from Blackburn, and most of the other players are from the domestic giants Galatsaray."

Seeing that Martin Taylor showed signs of galloping at the beginning of the game, Lineker could only work hard to make up for it.

"But none of the big players from Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Real Madrid, Bayern, Juventus, right?

Therefore, the gap between them and the England team is the difference between ordinary strong teams and European giants.

Gary, do you agree with me? "

Martin Taylor spoke enthusiastically, but Lineker was completely afraid to answer.

Some words are really not suitable to be said in the live broadcast, it is good that the England team won.But in case of losing, there is nothing wrong with Martin Taylor being hung on the pillar of shame, and it would be a bit wrong for him to be buried with him.

The legendary England striker could only respond lightly: "Football is round, we must be careful about our opponents."

While the two were talking, the England team had already kicked off, and Beckham continued his record of hitting all coins in the knockout round and won the ball for the England team.

After the kick-off, the football came to Beckham's feet immediately.

Emre, who is only 1 meters tall, rushed up immediately, and Beckham turned around and passed to Gary.

Emre decisively passed Beckham and rushed towards Beckham.

Emre found himself in Beckham's lane after a couple of runs and the heartthrob feinted and pulled the ball back.

After a lot of hard work, Beckham's "out of a thousand" footwork is no different from that of the God of Gamblers. This is the craftsmanship of a master.

Beckham turned around and took a step forward, put on airs and was about to pass the ball to the frontcourt, Hakan Yunsar was about to intercept it with a solo flight.

The Turkish team has specially studied the videos of Beckham's previous games, and the heartthrob's mid-range and long passes in this area are basically bloody.

Hakan Unsal didn't expect Emre to be deceived when he first came up, but his reaction was also a bit frightened.

Seeing that he was flying into the air, how could Beckham kick the ball out honestly, not playing a flying saucer.

He pulled the ball back, took a big step forward, and passed the ball to the center before Emre rushed back. Scholes was empty five meters within five meters, and he decisively moved forward.

After a season in AC Milan, the patron saint of the drinking fountain rushed over, Scholes continued to cross, and the football came to Hargreaves' feet.

Seeing Hargreaves taking the ball, the right midfielder of the Turkish team ran over unhurriedly.The 21-year-old is relatively poor in the long pass among the four midfielders of the England team. In the first few games, he ran wildly and made short passes.

But Hargreaves unexpectedly kicked a long pass and passed the ball between the midfielder and the defender.

Shearer, who ran out of the penalty area, decisively ferried the ball to the penalty area. The Turkish central defender had just started, and Owen had already rushed to the landing point.

The Turkish players panicked collectively. They didn't expect that it was just a small negligence at the beginning, but they were continuously expanded by the England team.

In a flash, Owen had already completed a volley.

Rustu opened his arms alertly and blocked the angle of the shot.

Because of the deep landing, Owen didn't have time to adjust, even if the goalkeeper blocked it, there was only one way to shoot.

The football hit Rustu's cheek and bounced off England's right.

Turkey's left-back Erti Pompe rushed forward to make a clearance, but Beckham was already between him and the football.

Beckham originally wanted to rush up to make a supplementary shot, but Owen's shot hit Rustu's big head and bounced between the small penalty area and the large penalty area line.

This is also a ghost!

The football bounced forward, and Beckham rushed up and stepped on the ball towards the lawn, preparing to hit it back into the penalty area.

Pompe rushed over, passed his left foot between Beckham's legs, and wanted to hook the ball to his feet.

Beckham never pinches his legs at this time, which is not in line with his temperament.He kept leaning back with his body, and Pompeii almost lost his balance when he was leaned on. His left leg flicked toward the football, and he quickly retracted it.

After the football hit the ground, it bounced high, and the fleeting fighter just disappeared.

Pompey's move bought time for his teammates, and the Turkish defenders took advantage of these two or three seconds to stand still.

Just as Beckham was about to stop the ball, Pompey leaned in again. The heartthrob could only resist the opponent hard and protect the ball with his body.

He took advantage of the gap in the guard to glance back and saw a player rushing towards the left post of the goal.

It should be Brother Spicy. This guy is a bit like Giggs. This guy has been stealing people from time to time recently.

This move was very coquettish, Beckham calculated the time in his mind, knocked the football with his knee, and immediately half-turned and passed the ball to the back post.

Rustu was kicked out of the door by Owen. At this moment, his consciousness was a little fuzzy, but he still covered his face and rushed to the back post, ready to fight McManaman to the death.

McManaman is even more motivated, and the moment to write a strong stroke on the road to the championship has come!

Wait, the ball doesn't seem to be passed to me.

McManaman glanced back, but there was no one behind him.

Well, Beckham has his moments.It can only be this way.

When Beckham made an undercut cross, he was hit behind by Pompey, and he felt nothing after the ball left his feet.

"David made a cross and Steve followed up. No way, the pass was too hard and the football flew into the goal!

David passed the ball high under the pressure of the defender. Unexpectedly, the football flew into the goal.

1 is better than 0!

The England team opened the scoring in just 1 minute. Congratulations to David for scoring his third personal goal in this World Cup!
Now it will be difficult for the Turkish team, haha! "

Hearing Martin Taylor's last "haha", Lineker rolled his eyes directly, feeling that this buddy was ruining his job.

On the court, Beckham raised his hands high, with a bright smile on his face again, reminding many viewers in front of the TV of that sunny afternoon.

Spicy Brother decisively gave a thumbs up, this luck is also world-class.

England players gathered around, everyone laughed and patted Beckham on the back, why does this guy always catch up with good things!

The Turkish players are all on top, the goalkeeper scolds the defender, the defender scolds the midfielder, and the midfielder scolds the midfielder.

The midfielder stared round and cursed back: "Treading horses is none of my business!"

The game restarted, and the four players in England's midfield were all short pass masters. Hargreaves was still a meat grinder with a metronome, and firmly controlled the midfield.

Seeing that the Turkish team could not grab the ball, they simply used continuous fouls to disrupt the rhythm of the England team.

When they get the ball, they look for high center Hakan Suker. The Turkish center has a strong body and has been the team's pioneer and bridgehead in the first few games.

It's a pity that Campbell only cares about such a fierce and rough center forward. After several years of training, the England central defender has finally grown into an excellent central defender.

All the offensive weapons that Hakan Suker was good at were restrained by Campbell. The Turkish center also received a yellow card because of his kicking action in anger.

The Turkish team, which does not have an advantage in pass control, ran all over the field like wild dogs, looking for confrontation everywhere.

English players are not afraid of this style of play at all. Among the players present, which one has not grown up fighting against each other since childhood!

Turkey shattered the game with frantic runs and five yellow cards, but England remained firmly in control.

The England team fouled a lot, but apart from Scholes chasing and shoveling his opponent and getting a yellow card, the other players kept their innocence.

45 minutes passed in a flash, and the two sides walked back to the locker room respectively.The difference is that the English players are swaggering and the Turkish players are pissed off.

Alpay, who was sent off in the third group, went to Beckham and pushed the heartthrob, and shouted in his ear: "You have nothing but good luck!"

Beckham's first reaction was to turn his head and punch the dog to the ground with an uppercut, but he regained his senses in an instant and showed a sarcastic smile.
