v6 Chapter 41 - Homestead atmosphere
When the game started, a huge cheer rang from the Mineirão stadium. This cheer was given to the Brazil team, not the Chinese team.
As the host, the atmosphere here is very strong.
The stadium, which can accommodate 62,457 fans, is the second largest stadium in Brazil.
Today’s Mineirão are almost all yellow seas, and Brazilian fans account for the vast majority of the stadium.
However, although there are few Chinese fans, red is still conspicuous among the yellow, which is quite easy to find.
After the kick-off, the live commentator He Ping began to introduce the starting list of both sides of the game.
Compared with the previous game, the starting lineup of the Chinese team was only adjusted in the forward position. Gao Lin replaced Wu Lei.
Gao Lin was centered, and He Ying went to the right.
Other locations are exactly the same.
Brazil’s Scolari replaced Manchester City’s midfielder Fernandinho with Paulinho, who performed poorly in the group stage, and there were no other major adjustments.
Neymar and Hulk are here.
The center is still Fred.
The referee of this game is the famous referee Weber from England.
Anyone who has played in England and in the Champions League will certainly be familiar with this referee.
Zhou Yi once had a Weber law enforcement game experience, and the most impressive one was the second round of the Dortmund semi-final last season. The game that challenged Real Madrid away was the referee.
However, at the national team level, Weber has never enforced the Chinese team’s game before. After all, the last time the Chinese team participated in the World Cup was in 2002.
Brazil was in the eighth final of the World Cup in South Africa four years ago, and the game against Chile was enforced by Weber. In that game, the Brazilian team, with the goals of Juan Fabiano and Robinho, won Chile 3-0 and advanced to the quarterfinals.
So if you insist on it, Weber is still the referee who brought good luck to Brazil. I don’t know if this game, Webber will continue to bring them good luck.
He Ping is introducing the starting list of the two sides, and the Brazilian commentator is talking about the history of the confrontation between the two teams: “This is the second time we have played against the Chinese team in the World Cup. The last time was already in 2002 We won the championship at that World Cup. In the second round of the group stage, we defeated the Chinese team at 4:0…”

After the game started, the Brazil team used their home advantage to launch a fierce attack on the Chinese team’s goal.
In the opening four minutes, after taking the ball in the middle circle, Neymar faced the defense of Zhou Yi and Yang Muge and chose to force the breakthrough from the middle with the ball.
He erased Zhou Yi, but was pushed down to the ground by Yang Muge in time.
The referee Weber made the first foul penalty in the game, Yang Muge was fouled and verbally warned.
“The Chinese team must guard against Neymar today. His breakthrough will be a great threat…” He Ping said.
If you want to say that today’s Brazil, who most fears the Chinese team, it must be Neymar.
Neymar is also the only player in Brazil’s starting lineup who has never played against Zhou Yi.
Brazil scored a free kick in the frontcourt. They hit the penalty area of the Chinese team. Hulk jumped to the header and the goal was kicked out. The soccer team was placed on the crossbar by Sun Pan.
Then Hulk ran to take a corner kick.
After the corner kick was taken, Feng Xiaoting header was released and Marcelo got a second landing point outside. After adjusting, he directly took a long shot from the left foot.
After the football drew an arc, it still missed the goal.
The Brazilian fans in the stands almost cheered.
Although Marcelona didn’t score this goal, it blew the horn of Brazil’s national attack.
In the twelfth minute, the Brazilian team played a beautiful match in the frontcourt.
Hulke took the ball on the left and made a breakthrough. Facing the defense of two Chinese players, he chose to pass the football to Neymar who met him in the middle, and then he continued to run forward.
When Neymar turned away from the offensive direction, Guo Nu was unable to turn around, so he rubbed the football behind him with the outside of his right foot and passed it back to Hulk, who inserted forward!
Hulk accelerated into the penalty area, but Zhang Linpeng, the Chinese team’s right back, has always followed him. When Hulk got the football in the penalty area, he had physical contact with Zhang Linpeng, and then he fell in the penalty area.
When Hulk fell to the ground, huge boos and shouts rang from the stands of Mineiro Stadium.
Brazilian fans stood up from their seats and waved their arms to the court.
They thought it was a penalty.
But the referee Weber said nothing.
The Brazilian coach Scolari on the sidelines froze for a moment before shouting angrily: “How could this not be a penalty?!”
Chinese commentator He Ping was also worried: “Hulk fell into the penalty zone, the Chinese team should be careful!”
Later, the television broadcast slow motion showed that Zhang Linpeng and Huerke did indeed have a physical contact, and his hand did indeed have an outward push action, but it was not obvious, and the power of this action should not be so Hulk. Falling down easily, you know that Hulk is very strong, just like a humanoid tank. How can it be easily pushed down?
Even though Zhang Linpeng had movements in his hands, Hulk had the suspicion of falling to the porcelain.
“This is not a penalty, and Webber sees it clearly!” He Ping relieved.
But the Brazilian commentator took a different view: “This is a penalty! The fifth player of the Chinese team has a very obvious push action! Weber turned a blind eye?! It seems that Zhou Yi’s words before the game are still true. It played a role, so that the head referee did not dare to adhere to the normal punishment standard, fearing that someone would be put on the hat of taking care of the host!”
When he said this, he was indignant, and there was a discomfort that made Zhou Yi succeed.
Hulk fell to the ground. This became the first controversial penalty in this game. Scolari was still chattering, but he could not change the result of this penalty.
Fortunately, the Brazilian players were not affected by this penalty. They continued to attack the Chinese team’s goal with their home advantage.
In the seventeenth minute, Brazil launched an offensive again and reached the forefront of the Chinese team’s penalty area. Neymar passed a ball to the left. When he wanted to give Hulk, Yang Hao returned to the defense to watch football. He flew over by his side, his head was hot, and he suddenly stretched out his hand and blocked the football…
“Eh? Eh! This is handball!” the Brazilian commentator exclaimed. “This is intentional handball! It’s an action to eat cards!”
“Yang Hao fouled…” He Ping was also speechless. This was not a threatening pass. Even if Yang Hao couldn’t stop it, he didn’t have to use his hand to block it… As a midfielder, because of such stupid reasons When a yellow card arrives, it is very unfavorable for the next game. “Yang Hao is still a little nervous, maybe it was influenced by the home atmosphere of this game…”
Brazil’s home atmosphere in this game is indeed very fanatical, every moment, the stands are the shouts and singing of Brazilian fans. As long as the Brazilian team takes the ball forward, whether it threatens the Chinese team’s goal or not, it is a huge cheer, so big that it makes the heart extremely uncomfortable.
In addition, when the Chinese team players take the ball, there will be a boo. Of course, there are not many boos enjoyed by other Chinese players, mainly Zhou Yi. As long as Zhou Yi touches the ball, the boos will be particularly loud. Zhou Yi’s remarks before the game successfully aroused the disgust of Brazilian fans.
The referee Webber did not let the Chinese team foul this time. He not only gave the Brazil team a free kick to the left of the frontcourt, but also gave Yang Hao a yellow card.
Then the Brazilian team took the free kick from Hulk. The free kick he kicked bypassed the wall and flew directly to the near corner of the goal.
However, such a free kick is difficult to break Sun Pan’s ten fingers.
Sun Pan rose into the air and sealed the football.
The Brazil team won a corner kick.
※※※
Before the corner kick was taken by Hulk, and this time the Brazil team changed the corner kicker, Neymar ran to play the corner kick.
He kicked the football forward.
The Chinese team also strengthened the defense of the front point when defending. After all, this is a very threatening corner kick.
Tiago Silva, the captain of the Brazilian national team, jumped up from the previous point and asked for a header!
Guo Nu, who is not as tall as his body, competed with Tiago Silva for the top spot with his excellent bounce, but he was pushed behind by Tiago Silva. Silva still grabbed the football before him. .
Only under the interference of Guo Nu, he could not header the goal, he could only push the football back to the point ~www.mtlnovel.com~, this attack, hit the Chinese team defensive caught by surprise.
Sun Pan originally blocked Tiago Silva’s header at the front point, and the Chinese team’s defensive center of gravity was relatively forward.
What did Tiago Silva rub the football to the back point!
At the later point, there is David Ruiz!
But in front of David Ruiz, there was Yan Min who withdrew to the front to defend.
When Yan Min saw the football fly over, he lifted his legs backwards like a conditioned reflex, as if the horse was about to lift his hind legs to kick a person. This is completely a subconscious action. The football is blocked.
But David Ruiz was close to him in the back and raised his leg. The two men’s legs collided together. This collision caused Yan Min to lose control of his leg.
The football hit his calf, then changed the line and bounced into the unmarked goal…
