Champion’s Heart

When Zhou Yi came to the restaurant to prepare breakfast, he found that everyone was watching TV, and the TV was broadcasting images of his interview with the media yesterday afternoon.

"What are you doing? If you don't eat breakfast and watch TV, do you understand?" Zhou Yi asked behind the crowd.

Everyone heard his voice turned his head, and some people gave him a way, so Zhou Yi saw the Portuguese translation of the national team inside.

Because the World Cup is held in Brazil, the common language here is Portuguese. Considering that the national team’s preparations and training arrangements here need to reach a large number of locals, the Football Association has specially equipped the national team with two Portuguese translations. I found it from Brazil. One is an overseas Chinese who has been doing business in Brazil for many years. The other is a college student studying in Brazil. Both of them are fans. They have Portuguese skills and are fully qualified for translation. After the Chinese team came to Brazil, their performance also proved this point.

The translator in the crowd is the young college student Geng Zhe.

He turned his head and saw Zhou Yi, and quickly got up: "Brother Yi, are you here?"

Even though he is older than Zhou Yi, he always called Zhou Yi this way. At first, Zhou Yi felt awkward and did not let him call, but he insisted on calling it, and said that his brother has nothing to do with his age. ,senior.

So with his persistence, Zhou Yi could only recognize this "brother"...

"What does Brazilian TV say?" Zhou Yi pointed to the TV and asked Geng Zhe.

"The Brazilian Football Association has just issued a statement saying that your remarks are a huge insult to Brazilian football... They said that this issue is a contempt for the referee. FIFA is a world-class institution established for 100 years. Brazil will never go to the sidelines, so please...please, uh, respect the Brazilian Football Association." Geng Zhe honestly gave Zhou Yihe the translation that he just said on TV. "...Saying your words also angered Brazilian fans. When the game is over, as long as you take the ball, you may hear a huge boo..."

Zhou Yi waved his hand: "Scared me, I thought I would ban it."

When he had finished speaking, he turned to get breakfast and no longer cared about what was said on the TV.

The other players saw that Zhou Yi was gone, and didn't care about listening to Geng Zhe's translation around the TV set. They all caught up with Zhou Yi and expressed their concerns about this matter.

"Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi, I see the news also gave you a new nickname, called'Brazil Enemy'..."

"What a nickname..." Zhou Yi expressed dissatisfaction with the name.

"Isn't the point here? The point is that you may be booed by Brazilian fans at the time of the game. The pressure is great..."

"Hey, what's the big deal? I thought I snatched eggs... What boos have been used to, haven't you heard boos in the league? Rurdby went to Lao Yang to play at home, my ears When there is no silence." Zhou Yi smiled. "Boos don't care anymore, there is no pressure."

Zhou Yi is full of confidence, but there will still be people in the Chinese team who are worried about him, hoping that he will not play abnormally in front of the madness of Brazilian fans. He is the backbone of the Chinese team. If he has problems, the whole team will have problems.

But Zhou Yi didn't take it seriously. He went to breakfast, sat down to eat, and chatted with other teammates.

Until head coach Lippi came, he stood at the door of the restaurant, looked inside, and walked straight to the table where Zhou Yi was.

Everyone suddenly became nervous again. The head coach suddenly came to Zhou Yi. Is this under pressure from the upper levels?

Everyone is Chinese. Under the guidance of the official ideology, it is impossible to get rid of the leadership and influence of the Chinese Football Association and the General Administration of Sport on the Chinese team.

If the Brazilian Football Association stabs this matter to FIFA, then FIFA will put pressure on the Chinese Football Association, and finally the Chinese Football Association will give Lippi pressure, what should I do with Zhou Yi?

Some players whose minds are turning fast have already thought about how they will face the result if Zhou Yi is taken down by Lippi and the Chinese team loses to Brazil...

When the time had passed in these people's minds for several days, Lippi walked to Zhou Yi's side, then pulled out his chair and said to Zhou Yi in English: "I only know what you said when I saw the news."

"That's not a big deal, right? My worry is justified." Zhou Yi said. "In the opening game, Brazil vs Croatia, the Japanese referee Yuki Nishimura awarded a controversial penalty to them, but that is a chance for the Brazil team to overtake the score."

Zhou Yi said it was true. When Fred fell in the penalty area, Nishimura ruled that Croatian player Lovren pulled the Brazilian center, awarded the Brazilian team a penalty, and gave Lovren a yellow card. However, it can be clearly seen from the slow motion that Lovren just gently took Fred's shoulder and there is still a tendency to close, but Yuichi Nishimura still thinks this is a penalty.

The penalty made Croatia very dissatisfied. Because if it was a penalty, then Alves’ previous kick of Croatian striker Olić in the penalty area should also be awarded a foul and a penalty for Croatia.

However, Yuki Nishimura did not say anything. At that time, the Croatian players attracted him to argue with him for a long time.

After the game, Croatia coach Kovac said specifically about this controversial penalty: "If anyone here thinks it is a penalty, please raise your hand. But I will not raise my hand, everyone knows that it is not a penalty. That penalty. It’s ridiculous. In any game, it’s not a penalty kick. If all the penalty kicks are made, then we might as well play basketball..."

In the law of basketball, physical contact is prohibited under the basket. As long as there is physical contact, the referee can take a foul for granted.

But football does not completely prohibit physical contact. So the Croatian coach has such complaints.

Kovac also continued to bombard Yuichi Nishimura: "Will the opening match against the host affect the performance? If the other team's penalty against Brazil is still the same as the opener, it will be a disaster. The referee of the opener needs to be more Professional, more advanced... It's normal to meet away in football, I don't want to criticize the referee, but the referee is too ridiculous..."

Although Brazil and Croatia, a South American team and a European team, it is normal to find an Asian referee to enforce the game. But in the minds of people who have a little conspiracy, the arrangement of this referee is also meaningless-there are a large number of Japanese immigrants in Brazil, and descendants of Japanese immigrants, there are about 1.5 million people. The relationship between the two countries is very good, whether at the civilian or government level.

Japanese football dedicated to learning Brazilian football, and finally became the samba in Asian football, and even won the "Asia Brazil" reputation.

So in this opener, there are so many non-South American and European referees who can choose, but in the end they chose a Japanese referee...

Can't help but have conspiracy theories.

Coupled with the controversial punishment of Yuichi Nishimura in the game, it is even more imaginative.

Lippi nodded: "It's not a big deal. The only problem is the pressure you are facing. I didn't expect the Brazilian Football Association to issue a special statement... Kovac said that, and I didn't see the Brazilian Football Association issue. The statement, I think they might do so to increase the pressure and trouble. Since the match against Spain, the world knows how important you are to the Chinese team."

Zhou Yi smiled: "Haha! Maybe it was because of my unfortunate words? Rest assured, coach, I have no pressure, and boos can't cause me any trouble."

"I know, I know you are a person with a big heart." Lippi felt from Zhou Yi's smile, Lippi felt that Zhou Yi's composure had not been pretended, but really did not take these seriously.

He stopped talking, patted Zhou Yi on the shoulder, and got up and left his seat to find breakfast.

As soon as Lippi left, the other players gathered around and wanted to ask what Lippi and Zhou Yi had talked about.

The two of them use English all the way, and the Chinese players are not good at English.

"Hi, nothing. You look so nervous one by one..." Zhou Yi waved his hand. "We came to talk about the referee problem in Brazil, and we all think that Brazil is indeed taken care of by the referee. For example, the opener..."

Zhou Yi said this, everyone also thought of the media report on the disputed penalty after the opener~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Suddenly tense: "Fuck, Brazil will not be bad in our game, right? ?"

Zhou Yi waved his hand again: "I think the possibility is not high. The Brazilian Football Association has issued a statement, saying so absolutely, so Weiguangzheng. If something like the opener reappears in the game, wouldn't it be their face? So rest assured, since the Football Association has spoken, I think the game should be a normal game by then."

Lippi worried that the Brazilian Football Association’s statement was causing trouble for Zhou Yi, but in Zhou Yi’s view, the Brazilian Football Association’s statement helped the Chinese team. At least this game can certainly be carried out in a relatively fair environment.

He said that at the time, but he was not really sure whether Brazil would be taken care of by the head referee, just to prevent vaccination in advance and put the ugly words ahead.

The results were unexpectedly good, because the Brazilian Football Association did not take the lead and directly issued an official statement.

This time when the Chinese team is playing against the Brazil team, it is like holding the sword of Shang Fang.

This is probably something that the Brazilian Football Association never thought of...
