Chapter 260: Qualify early

"…Tomorrow morning at 8:00, the 34th Olympic Games will open at the Pasadena Stadium in Los Angeles. Speaking of this stadium, we still have the same football in the world as our Chinese football team. In the 2026 World Cup between the United States and Canada two years ago, the Chinese team was It was a 3-3 draw with Brazil at this stadium and going back further, in 1999

​​

The Chinese women's football team once lost to the US team in this stadium, and unfortunately missed the world championship. This stadium will also be the venue for the final of the Olympic football event.

​​

"In the women's football game that ended last night, the girls of the Chinese women's football team played well in the game, beating the Norwegian women's football team 4-2 and winning the group stage. In this way, both men's and women's football teams have won this Olympic Games. victory.…

​​

After Li Qingqing disappeared from the TV screen, Xie Lan turned her gaze back and commented, "What is tacit understanding? That's it! The two of them must have discussed it in private to win the game together!

​​

Hu Lixin did not refute his wife's statement, because it would be strange if his son and Li Qingqing didn't make an agreement about the Olympics in private.

​​

After all, they are already boyfriend and girlfriend, a couple.

​​

It's normal for couples to have some little secrets.

​​

Maybe for the two of them, the Olympics is an extra-large "date?

​​

So after Hu Lai scored twice to help the Chinese Olympic team win the first game, Li Qingqing also scored twice to help the women's football team win, he was not surprised at all.

​​

"Let me see who we're going to fight after our group is out of the group."

​​

Xie Lan began to flip through the map she had saved earlier.

​​

She saw the women's football match first.

​​

The women's football team has a total of twelve participating teams, divided into three groups. In order to distinguish it from the grouping of the men's football game, the women's football team is arranged starting from e, which are group e, group f and group g.

​​

The top two teams in each group and the top two teams will advance to the quarterfinals. .

​​

The Chinese women's football team was assigned to Group G and was the seeded team in Group G.

​​

Xie Lan defaulted that the Chinese women's football team should be the first in Group G. According to the rules, if the women's football team qualified first in the group, they would face a third-place team in the quarter-finals. If the third team in Group G is selected, then the Chinese team in Group G will face the third team in Group E or Group F. If the third place in group g does not qualify, the first place in group g will be fixed against the third place in group f.

​​

But no matter which group it is against the third place, since it is the third place in the group, its strength is definitely not that strong.

​​

The Chinese women's football team has great hopes of advancing to the semi-finals.

​​

Xie Lan was confused by the complicated rules of the women's football team, so she decided to see the situation on the men's team.

​​

Compared with the women's football team, the men's football team's game rules are very fixed - the qualifying team of the Chinese team will compete with the qualifying team from the second half of the group D.

​​

Cross match.

​​

Xie Lan hopes that the national Olympic team can win the first place in the group, although the German Olympic team is also very strong.

​​

. However, when she saw Group D, she immediately did not worry about whether the Chinese Olympic team could take first or second place, because no matter whether it was first or second, the opponents in the quarter-finals were not easy to play.

​​

The four teams in Group D are Spain, the runner-up in the last Olympic Games, Brazil, the traditional football powerhouse, Senegal, the African representative, and Chile.

​​

This group is the "death group" of this Olympics. No matter who gets out, it's not a good fight.

​​

Especially the Spanish and Brazilian Olympic teams.

​​

In the last Olympic Games, the Chinese Olympic team was eliminated by the host Spanish Olympic team in the quarter-finals.

​​

Seeing such a result, Xie Lan frowned and snorted.

​​

"What's wrong?" Hu Lixin asked curiously.

​​

"The shape cushion is not good"

​​

Hu Lixin is very strange: "Isn't this just a win, why is the situation bad?"

​​

"I mean the knockout situation!"

​​

Hu Lixin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I think too far, I only played one game in the group stage!"

​​

"Why is it so far away? Is there any suspense in the group stage? Except for the last game. As long as we win Fiji again, we will qualify ahead of time. The only suspense is the first or the second. Hu Lixin said: "Yes, the first and the second The opponents in the second match are different, so it doesn't make sense for you to think so far now..."

​​

"The problem is that no matter whether it is first or second, there is no difference between the opponents." Xie Lan showed her husband the four teams in Group D.

​​

Hu Lixin fell into deep thought after reading it, and then tutted.

​​

Xie Lan continued: "The two groups in the second half are composed of the champions of the European Youth Championship, Germany, the runners-up Spain, and opponents such as Brazil. Compared with the first half, it is simply too easy, just one Argentina. I doubt it. Maybe the United States took advantage of the host and made some moves during the lottery to arrange such a good lottery for them. Xie Lan suddenly added in a very positive tone: "Yes, yes, yes, it must be like this! American devil of dog days! If you don't win the track and field relay, you will have to rematch.

​​

If you lose, you will say that your opponent takes medicine... Now the football lottery is using such a rude method! The heart is darker than the ass, shameless!

When Hu Lixin heard his wife suddenly scolding the United States, he grinned. He wanted to say "no conspiracy theories", but when he thought about a series of salacious operations from top to bottom in the United States over the years - not only at the sports level - - He was suddenly speechless.

​​

He can't blame his wife for the conspiracy theory. It's true that the Yankees have never done anything serious over the years.

​​

Judging from their usual behavior, it is not unbelievable that the United States used the convenience of the host to arrange a relatively easy draw result for its own team.

​​

In the current group situation, as long as the US team wins the first place in the group, it will definitely be able to avoid Agen, who should have won the first place in the group, in the quarter-finals, which is basically equivalent to being sent to the semi-finals.

​​

Entering the semi-finals, the goal of winning a medal is not far away.

​​

With better luck, or better "luck", we can still make it to the finals...

​​

And once they reach the finals, it's a bit unreasonable not to win a gold medal, right?

​​

So following this logical reasoning, Hu Lixin wanted to follow his wife to scold Yankees.

​​

If we don't react to Hu Lixin, what does it have to do with us how despicable and shameless the Americans are? They are in the top half, and unless the national Olympic team reaches the semi-finals, it is impossible to meet them. If the Chinese team won the second place in the group stage, it would only be possible to meet the hosts even if they reached the final.

​​

So he persuaded: "You, you still think too much. It's not something we should think about about the Americans. Let's talk about it when we meet...

​​

Xie Lan also knew that she scolded the United States out of a simple national sentiment and anger at the unfavorable situation of the Olympic team's knockout round.

​​

So she no longer cares about Americans' black assholes.

​​

Let's see how the group stage played first...

​​

Yibi On August 7th, the second day after the opening of the Olympic Games, the national Olympic team ushered in the second opponent in the group stage.

​​

The Fiji Olympic Team, who played on behalf of Oceania.

​​

The team won last year's Pacific Games football program and also qualified for this year's Olympics.

​​

And they defeated the powerful New Zealand Olympic team in the final, which was an upset - you must know that this is the first time that the Fiji Olympic team has participated in the Olympic Games.

​​

Before the game, almost all voices in China believed that there would be no suspense for the Olympic team to defeat Fiji. The only suspense was to win a few goals. After all, in the first group match, the German Olympic team defeated the Fiji Olympic team 10-0. of. Their main striker, Nico Strauy, scored five goals in the game. You must know that in the last Olympic Games, Hu Lai scored a total of five goals in four games and became the "top scorer" of that Olympic Games.

​​

And now Strauy has completed Hulay's Olympic goal in just one game.

​​

Although the Olympic Games do not have the honor of "top scorer", fans will still discuss comparisons.

​​

Nico Strauy is a talented player trained by the Bundesliga team Wissedov himself, but his fate is ill-fated. The 23-year-old has suffered two major injuries so far in his career. This has affected the ceiling of his career, so everyone is now more optimistic about Ruhrlein's Janus Edmann, after all, Edmann is younger than Strauy and is stronger at the same time.

​​

Before participating in the Olympic Games, Strauy had just experienced seven months of injury recovery. In the Olympic Games against Fiji, he scored five goals, which can bring him back to some form.

​​

Germany's big victory against Fiji and Strauy's five-point goal made many people in China think that the Chinese team's victory over Fiji was no problem, and some even demanded that Hu Lai be better than Strauy. More goals, otherwise it will be a failure. These people said plausibly: "Hu Lai is the Champions League Golden Boot, La Liga Golden Boot~www.readwn.com~ What does that Strauy have? Since he can score five goals against Fiji , is it reasonable for Hu Lai to score more goals than him? You can’t even beat someone who is seriously injured and misses a season, right? No, no, no? It’s not really comparable, right? Lai has no growth and progress at all. For those who say this, I really don't know if they are Hu Lai's fans or Heizi.

​​

In response to these people, Hu Lai completed the big four in this game, helping the Chinese Olympic team beat the Fiji Olympic team 8-0.

​​

The Olympic team did not capsize in the gutter, but Hu Lai did not score more goals than Strauy, even one less...

​​

He did not play the full game, and was replaced by the head coach Mai Zhaocheng with substitute striker Tian Yuan with 24 minutes left in the game.

​​

When he was replaced, Hu Lai showed no dissatisfaction at all.

​​

This shows that he does not want to compete with Strauy in the number of goals.

​​

On the contrary, he came off with a smile on his face, waving frequently to the cheering Chinese fans in the stands.

​​

The Chinese Olympic team has won two games in two games, scored 11 goals, never lost a goal, and has won the right to qualify for the group ahead of schedule.

​​

Compared with four years ago, it is indeed a joy to qualify from the group so easily.

​​

The number of goals scored is less than that of Strauy. In Hu Lai's eyes today, it is a trivial matter that will not affect his mood at all.
