Chapter 587 Chapter 587: The abstinence order is cancelled!

The situation in Group B is relatively clear. Argentina qualified ahead of schedule with two wins in the previous two games, and another qualifying place will be produced among South Korea and Greece.

Greece's last opponent in the group stage is Argentina, while South Korea's opponent is Nigeria, which has already been eliminated. It is widely believed that South Korea will win the other place in the group.

At 22:08 on the evening of the 30nd South African time, the two games were held at the Peter Mokaba Stadium and the Durban Stadium in Polokwane City.

At the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane City, Maradona's starting lineup adjusted as many as seven people, and Messi still started and served as the field captain.

According to media analysis, the ball king is fighting back against the British media, because the British media had ridiculed Messi for not scoring a goal.

After the start of the game, Greece put the main force in defense. They hoped to consume Argentina's spirit with defense, and then use the counterattack, which might result in an upset.

At least in the first half the tactics of the Greeks achieved the desired effect, they did not let the Argentines break through the goal.Compared with the tranquility of Argentina and Greece, the Durban Stadium is another scene.

No. In the 12th minute, Nigeria launched an attack. Odia passed two people on the right and barely made a cross, but the two central defenders of the South Korean team missed their positions.
Because the opponent's shot was too close, although Zheng Chenglong responded, he still couldn't stop the football from entering the goal.

One to zero!

One goal behind put South Korea at a disadvantage. They strengthened their offense and obviously improved the pace of the game, but their offensive efficiency was very average.

As soon as the second half started, the South Koreans launched a fierce attack on Nigeria. In the 4th minute of the second half, Xitu fouled Park Joo-young from the edge of the penalty area, and the referee awarded South Korea a free kick in the frontcourt.

Park Joo-young stood in front of the football, and after the referee blew his whistle, he ran slowly towards the football.

Jinnan made mistakes again and again and brought Obasi down. The referee blew his whistle without hesitation and awarded Nigeria a penalty.Nigeria striker Yakubu achieved overnight!

The score became two to two!
The Nigerians equalized!

At this moment, the score of Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane City is still zero to zero, and the Greeks are tenaciously resisting the Argentines' flood-like attack.

In the second half No.20, Di Maria took a corner kick from the left. Argentine left-back Demichelis scored a fierce header from seven meters in front of the goal!

The football bounced off teammate Milito's chest!
After landing on the ground, Demichelis took two steps forward alertly and shot with his left foot right in front of his instep!
The football flies into the net from the bottom of the crossbar!
One to zero!

Argentina breaks the deadlock!

Greece, which was in a desperate situation, launched a counterattack against Argentina, but there was a gap in strength after all, and they could only return without success again and again.At the end of the game, the Argentine showed a lore.

A few minutes later, the two games ended. The Argentines defeated Greece [-]-[-] and advanced to the round of [-] with their heads held high. The Koreans drew with Nigeria [-]-[-] and came second in the group. , and got another knockout ticket.

Greece and Nigeria can only say goodbye to the World Cup.

People focus on Group C. Can the English, like the Argentines, advance to the round of [-] with their heads held high and their chests high?

The US team will compete with Slovenia for the second place in the group. Who can get another ticket to the knockout round?
The United States currently has one point and a goal difference of two, while Slovenia has three points and a goal difference of one.If the United States wants to qualify, in addition to defeating Algeria, which has been eliminated in advance, it also needs to hope that England can defeat Slovenia.

In addition, the US team must win by a large score to make up for the previous disadvantage in goal difference.

……

England moved to Port Elizabeth shortly after the second game to prepare for the next round of the group.

Since they have already qualified ahead of schedule, England is relaxed. The main players use this time to recover their physical fitness, while the substitutes use this time to express themselves in training, hoping to play in the final group match.

They know that if they miss this chance, there is a good chance they won't have the chance to play in the World Cup.Capello took this opportunity to rehearse the substitute lineup, hoping to pick out players who are really useful from among them, and when the knockout rounds are deadlocked, he will send surprise soldiers to win by surprise.

The Wolves trio has been classified as the main players by Capello. They are conducting recovery training with the main players such as Gillard, while Rooney is conducting tactical drills with the substitute players.

Manchester United's top card buried his depression deeply in his heart, and he decided to use goals to justify himself.

Didn't you say I haven't scored in the World Cup yet?
OK, I'll show you all!
The gag order and the abstinence order are still not lifted, and the pressure on Capello in England is increasing. Beckenham will pass on the players' opinions to the Italians.

Perhaps it was the two consecutive victories that made the Italian proud. He finally agreed that after the last game of the group stage, the players could meet their girlfriends or wives.

When Beckenham passed the good news to the players, the England players jumped up happily, and they could finally meet their women.

As for the gag order is still not lifted, England players did not express dissatisfaction, the meal has to be eaten one bite at a time, the abstinence order has been lifted, will the gag order be far behind?

Anxious Peter immediately called Dai Li and asked her to bring the child to South Africa. Dai Li also missed him very much and decided to come to South Africa after asking for leave from the hospital.

Excited, Peter hummed a little song that only he knew, the sound was simply unbearable, so Wang Rui had to put on the earphones and turn the music volume to the maximum...

Kenting looked at the happy Peter and Oakes, sighed and said, "Should I also find a girlfriend?"

"Of course you should!" Peter patted him on the shoulder and said loudly: "Otherwise people will suspect that there is something wrong with your sexual orientation."

"Not only that, but those of us who are also speculated by the media have a problem with our sexual orientation."
