Green Destroyer

Chapter 144: Naturally Powerful Club King

William Ekon, a Nigerian and Dutch mixed race, played for Dordrecht, Groningen, Ghent and many other Eredivisie teams, and currently plays for Bursaspor in the Turkish Super League.

Leo Balogun, a Nigerian and German mixed race, has played for Hannover 96, Werder Bremen, Dusseldorf, Darmstadt and other German teams, and currently plays for Mainz in the Bundesliga.

This is the resume of the two central defenders in Nigeria.

Due to the wave of immigration, for African teams, they can easily recruit many mixed-race players who play in European leagues. These players may not be able to enter the big list at all in strong teams such as Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, and France. , but it can immediately become the absolute main force of the African team, and many players also use this to get the opportunity to appear in the World Cup.

But at this moment, Ekon and Balogon regretted getting such an opportunity!

They could have sat in front of the TV and cheered for the German or Dutch team, but now they have to face the humiliation of that man!
——Ah, I'm sorry, the Netherlands did not enter the World Cup at all, and the defending champion Germany... the three group matches played more and more poorly!
The man wearing the No. 1 jersey is definitely a devil!
They have been playing for the relegation team, and in 45 minutes, they experienced the fear that only the rich teams can experience!

45 minutes + 3 minutes of stoppage time, Ekon and Balogon watched the man go in and out of their defense line, but did not make a successful defense!

Throughout the first half, they hardly shed a drop of sweat, but after only 10 minutes of playing in the second half, their white ball pants were already stained black and green by grass clippings and dirt!
Speed, strength, skill, reaction, change... The opponent they are responsible for defending is like a heavy armored vehicle, but it is also like a slippery loach. With the ability of Nigerian defenders, they are not even qualified to make him fall No!
If they hadn't given up decisively and continued to defend closely with Chen Hao, their legs and knees... might have been distorted and deformed due to excessive force before the game was over, and even completely lost consciousness!
Ten goals in sports games breaking through the defensive line, three direct free kicks and five indirect free kicks. Chen Hao, who played 45 minutes, scored a total of ten goals against Nigeria in the second half!
What needs to be explained is that since FIFA has re-modified the free kick rules, the "indirect free kick" here usually requires the help of teammates:
For example, for an indirect free kick from a distance of 50 meters, teammate 5 is responsible for taking the penalty, and Chen Hao stands 8 meters away (according to regulations, defensive players must maintain 9.15 meters).

Teammate 5 quickly passed to Chen Hao, and the latter completed the shot at about 40 meters!
And with such an opportunity, this teammate 5 was able to get a full five assists! -
"Drip, drip, drip!"

The referee from France finally blew the final whistle, and the Nigerian players lowered their heads deeply one by one like a dried up eggplant.

Only Iwobi, who had been double-killed by Atletico Madrid in two rounds on behalf of Arsenal in the Champions League two years ago, was a little more energetic. He even walked up to Chen Hao and took the initiative to ask the head coach of the Chinese team for the jersey.

Chen Hao was moved by his strong spirit and generously gave him his jersey:

"Come on, boy, a defeat is not the end of the world, Iceland can beat Argentina, you can too!"

Iwobi nodded vigorously:
"Thank you for your guidance, I have one more wish, I hope you can grant me."

The opponent made such a request, which Chen Hao had never encountered in his career. He smiled and glanced at Iwobi:
"What is your wish?"

Iwobi said sincerely and seriously:
"I hope you can still show 100% of your strength in the third round of the group stage, and don't act as a substitute just because you qualify early."

Chen Hao couldn't help laughing even more happily:

"I promise you, in that game, I will start for the first time!"

Iwobi immediately beamed with joy, holding Chen Hao's jersey and happily walking towards his teammates.

Only to hear him shout loudly:
"We still have hope! Chen Ritian promised me that he will fight with all his strength in the third round of the group stage!"

Chen Hao hadn't finished laughing yet, but the Nigerian players cheered and all surrounded him!
Captain Mikel said in English:

"Chen, we want to take a photo with you!"

In order to please Chen Hao, the player who played in the Chinese Super League even squeezed out a sentence of Mandarin with a taste of Tianjin:

"Chen Ritian, you are the best!"

Chen Hao laughed, and posed in a group of nervous, excited, stiff, and cramped black men. He felt that he was much more handsome!
-
"I, Leo Messi,
Once underestimated, facing tremendous pressure to win or lose, and merciless opponents,

I've been lost, and I've shot empty;
I've been sore, I've been hurt, I've even tasted dirt.

Like now, I can't remember the thousandth time I fell on the court.

But I can still feel that the inherent power in my heart wants me to rise up and move forward bravely!

I wasn't born strong, I was just born strong! "

After the first round of the group stage, the most popular commercial in China did not lose to Chen Hao, who scored 18 goals in a single game, but was successfully won by Messi.

In this dairy product advertisement, the club king is shoveled to the ground again and again, and the club king lying on the turf looks so helpless for a moment.

Although the subsequent club king quickly rose up and scored a goal, these are not important.

Only the scene of him lying on the ground was directly ridiculed by jokers:

"I'm Messi, I'm in a panic now!"

Yes, can he not panic?

Needless to say, Chen Hao scored 18 goals, Ronaldo also staged a hat-trick, and even the club's assistants Suarez and Coutinho scored goals one after another, but the club champion not only failed to score, but Argentina lost to One of the weakest teams in this tournament, Iceland!
In the advertisement endorsed by Chen Hao, the most topical thing is not a car or a rocket, but a family planning product:
"Eighteen shots in one night, enjoy your youth and release your passion!"

But these pictures were quickly copied by some unscrupulous pheasant hospitals, and even put a big red cross on their faces:

"Have you ever bothered to ejaculate with your legs lifted? One time less than 2 minutes? XX Hospital, help you become a real man!"
-
There were indeed many upsets in the first round of the group stage, but it was not enough to let the losers go to a corner. The remaining two games may still change the outcome.

Especially strong teams like Germany, Argentina, and Brazil, as long as they adjust in time, their chances of advancing are still very high.

The five-star Brazil cheered up first, Coutinho and Neymar made contributions respectively, and a clean and beautiful 2-0 allowed Costa Rica to lock in a place to go home early.

The German team also swept away the decline and even broke the curse that has always been difficult to win in the second round of the World Cup group stage. They defeated Sweden 2-1 and scored the first three points that were belated.

Portugal 1-0 Morocco, Ronaldo scored his fourth personal goal in this World Cup and continued to rank third in the scorer list-the second place was England striker Harry Kane, who scored five goals in two games, although the five goals included Two penalties, but... Kane can at least score!
Argentina, which was under tremendous pressure after the first game, led the team to attack aggressively at the beginning of the second round, but Nigeria counterattacked and pierced the goal.

When he was almost in desperation, the club king finally stood up. He gave up the performance of five people in a row and cooperated with his teammates quickly instead.

Midfielder Banega sent a long pass from the halfway line, and the club king stuck in his crotch at high speed to stop the ball and then shot angrily at the ball, tying the score to 1-1!

After the equalizer, Argentina's confidence has greatly increased, but whether it is forward superstars such as Messi, Aguero, Higuain, Di Maria, Dybala, or central players such as Perez, Banega, Mascherano, etc. However, in the 56th minute of the second half, central defender Rojo completed a burst shot in a corner kick attack! 2-1!

Argentina thought they would finally be able to reap the first difficult victory and precious three points like Germany and Brazil, but Nigeria said no to them!

In the last minute of stoppage time, Iwobi stumbled into the penalty area with the ball, and bounced on Rojo with an inaccurate shot!

The ball changed direction, but also flew into Argentina's goal!
2-2!

The Pampas Eagles have won two consecutive rounds of draws!

Messi and his team have finally come to the brink!

They only got two points...Only by defeating the powerful Chinese team in the last game, can Argentina enter the top 16!
Is Messi panicking now?
