Chapter 704 Against England

On the afternoon of June 6, local time in Germany, the Chinese team went to the Franken Stadium for adaptive training.When they arrived at the Frankenstadion, they found that the England team was about to leave.

This England team is very familiar with Yin Jun. In the 23-man squad, 3 are his Manchester United teammates, and 1 is a former teammate. As for the rest, except Hargreaves who played for Bayern, In the Premier League, they have dealt with each other more than once.

Rooney and other three Manchester United teammates came to greet Yin Jun first. After greeting Gary Neville and Ferdinand, Yin Jun patted Rooney and asked, "How is your recovery?"

In the warm-up match before the start of the World Cup, Rooney suffered an injury, but it was only a minor injury and did not miss the World Cup.In the first group match with Paraguay four days ago, although Rooney did not play the game, he participated in the team's joint training.

"There's no problem..." Rooney replied casually, "I said Yin, you're not looking for information, are you?"

Yin Jun smiled and said, "Are you so slow-witted?"

Rooney gave Yin Jun a hammer, pretending to be very annoyed and said, "You are too insidious, aren't you?"

………………

While the two were laughing, Yin Jun saw England's captain David Beckham approaching.

Rooney didn't say hello to Beckham, just nodded to each other, said goodbye to Yin Jun and walked away.

Yin Jun walked towards Beckham and said with a smile, "David, I never thought we would meet again, it would be here!"

With his iconic smile, the captain of England also stepped forward and hugged Yin Jun warmly.

"Then I should congratulate you, welcome to the World Cup!" Beckham said with a smile, but the next sentence was obviously not so friendly, "I promise, tomorrow this place will become your sad place."

Yin Jun also laughed and said, "Who knows? Maybe we will take away a victory from here."

Beckham raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? How dare you think about it!"

"We just defeated Sweden. I heard that you haven't beaten them in 38 years." Yin Jun said with a smile.

Beckham's expression froze, and Yin Jun's words hit his pain point.

As we all know, Germany can be described as the nemesis of England, and England has suffered enough from the confrontation between the feuds.But many people may not have noticed that England's record against the Norwegian Vikings was also very embarrassing.Since 1968, England has not won 11 times against Norway!

However, Beckham is also a person with a delicate mind, and he quickly reminded tit-for-tat: "We only defeated you half a year ago!"

"Wait and see!" Yin Jun challenged.

Beckham smiled and said nothing, and nodded repeatedly, as if to say, then I will wait.

After the two of them exchanged polite words, they left separately.

………………

"What did you talk to Beckham just now?" Dong Fangzhuo asked gossipingly.

"He said that he only won against us in November last year." Yin Jun laughed.

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, but soon someone understood.

"Isn't the tone a little loud?"

"But to be honest, although the score against England last time was only 0:1, there was no suspense for us to lose."

"This team is not easy to deal with, we still have to be careful."

……

Yin Jun could feel the pressure from his teammates. After all, this time he was facing the top football team in the world. He immediately encouraged everyone: "Don't be nervous, England is not monolithic, and their weaknesses are also very obvious. As long as we can Playing at the level, I believe that this game is still worth playing."

Dong Fangzhuo and others were Yin Jun's staunch supporters, and they immediately voiced their support.The battle is imminent, and at this time, no matter what, you can't lose your prestige.

………………

Soon it was game day.

This game between the Chinese team and England is the third game of the second round of the group stage.

The night before the day before, the host Germany first appeared in the second round of the group stage. As a result, the Germanic Chariot beat its neighbor Poland 1-0, achieved two consecutive victories in the group stage, and basically locked a seat in the knockout round.

And just when Yin Jun led his teammates out of the hotel and went to Franken Stadium, the result of the second group match of Group A had already been decided. After Ecuador defeated Poland in the first round, it continued its dark horse journey , swept Costa Rica 3:0, and continued to catch up with Germany with two consecutive victories.

In this way, the qualifying situation of Group A is very clear. Germany and Ecuador, both of which have won two consecutive victories, will advance to the next round. However, the two teams will decide who is the first in the group in the third round of direct competition.

Ecuador beat Costa Rica with three goals, which gave the Chinese team players a great impact.This South American team, like the Chinese team, appeared in the World Cup for the first time four years ago. Although it was eliminated at the bottom of the group four years ago, it has now completed a gorgeous turn and is the first to advance to the World Cup knockout round. The German team competes for the first place in the group.

This is so inspiring!
Since there is a precedent in Ecuador, then the Chinese team might not be able to draw, or even beat England, and enter the knockout round first?

The football market of the World Cup is extremely hot. According to the news obtained before the game, this game will be full of seats.However, unlike the Chinese fans who had an absolute advantage in the stands in the first round, in this game, the fans entering the stadium were evenly matched, and neither had a clear advantage.

When Yin Jun led his teammates to warm up before the game on the court, the stands of Franken Stadium were already full of people.Fans from both sides entered the field early.Although a stadium in the early 40,000s is not as good as a five-star stadium like the Iduna Park Stadium, the sound of more than [-] fans from both sides is still very powerful.
