Chapter 369 The Reborn Octopus Emperor

Italy vs Romania, Turkey vs Portugal, Netherlands vs Yugoslavia, Spain vs France, this is the European Cup quarter-final matchup table.

Except for the group of Spain and France, the strength is clear, and the strength of the World Cup champion France is also stronger than that of Spain. As a result, there is no upset. Both Italy and Portugal beat Romania and Turkey with a score of 2:0. Although Spain The bald Frenchman Zidane shined in this game, scoring a free kick and winning a penalty in the 117th minute of overtime, knocking out Spain 2:1.Real Madrid's idol Raul and Zidane became mortal when compared. Raul with poor mental quality had a chance to save Spain in the last minute of the game, but he missed the penalty kick.

The game between the Netherlands and Yugoslavia, if you are serious about it, can be regarded as an upset, because the Netherlands unexpectedly swept Yugoslavia, one of the representatives of the European Latin faction, 6:1, which surprised almost everyone. The host country, the Netherlands, immediately became the biggest favorite to win the championship. Even France was left far behind by the Netherlands. The Netherlands' semi-final opponent, Italy, was basically ignored. Everyone thinks that the Netherlands will win the European Cup for the second time after winning the championship in 88.

At this time, the media got a shocking news from the well-known betting company Ladbrokes. The head coach of Alkmaar guessed all the winning and losing matches of the 28 European Cup games he bought, without making any mistakes. .The staff of Ladbrokes revealed that although Jiang Mu did not guess the score, the accuracy rate is absolutely miraculous. It can be said that only the Octopus Emperor of later generations can match it.

Such a divine prediction naturally caused a sensation. When the reporter interviewed Jiang Mu and asked him who would advance to the final, Jiang Mu gave the answer that the Netherlands was not the favorite. Jiang Mu believed that France and Italy would advance to the final, but refused to disclose The final champion.

Jiang Mu's prediction caused a split in the Dutch media. Some reporters believed that the Netherlands would have high morale, strong strength, and home court advantage. Except for the World Cup champion France, no team could block the way of the Netherlands. Not even reaching the finals is simply impossible.Some media believe that Jiang Mu's ability to predict 28 consecutive games without making a mistake is enough to show that his observation and judgment of the game and the team are accurate, and the Netherlands is very likely to be overwhelmed.

Out of respect for Jiang Mu's reputation and the fear of God's prediction, Rijkaard called Jiang Mu again and asked Jiang Mu why he predicted that the Netherlands would lose to Italy.

Rijkaard was known as the Three Musketeers of the Netherlands when he was a player, and won the European Cup in 88 as an absolute main player. However, he is still a relatively humble coach. Jiang Mu has no ill feeling towards him, even if Rijkaard expressed dissatisfaction last time. Out of consideration for the interests of the team, Rijkaard took the initiative to call to inquire, and Jiang Mu said without reservation the problems of the Dutch team. In fact, this is also a problem that has existed in the Dutch team for a long time. The problem between black players and white players is that when the game goes well, everyone works together and can enjoy the victory together, but when they fall behind or are in a stalemate, black players and white players cannot understand and trust each other, so even if they are stronger than their opponents, they are often both. He fell when he was one step away from the final victory.

Moreover, the mentality of the Dutch team is also a big problem. Jiang Mu suggested that Rijkaard practice more penalty kicks before the game and send players with good psychological quality to take the penalty. Because Italy has a strong defensive ability, although the Dutch team has a very strong offensive power. , but may not be able to break through the door of Italy.

Rijkaard said on the phone that he would accept Jiang Mu's suggestion, but in fact, Jiang Mu didn't know how much impact his little butterfly from time-traveling would have on this era, and maybe be able to change it. Perhaps nothing can change the final outcome of this European Cup, but Jiang Mu is not the head coach of this Dutch team, and that is all he can do for his favorite Dutch football.

On June 6th, the game was held at the Amsterdam Stadium. Like all Dutch fans, Jiang Mu came to the ordinary fans stand to watch the match between the sharpest spear and the strongest shield.

Although Jiang Mu predicted before the game that Italy would advance to the final and that the Netherlands would be overwhelmed, the Italian fans were not lucky. Many fans watched it as if it was the last game, and some famous Italian celebrities and celebrities also followed suit. When they came to the scene, the reporter's camera shot to the VIP boxes in the stands from time to time.

But the most eye-catching audience is Jiang Mu, who gives a close-up of Jiang Mu almost every few minutes, and the commentator keeps repeating Jiang Mu's predictions for the game, until the players from both sides come out, the focus will be Back on the field.

In this game, both Italy and the Netherlands sent their strongest lineups. The Dutch team at home played very proactively and completely suppressed Italy, while Italy was passive, and defensive counterattacks became defensive counterattacks.

In the 10th minute of the game, left winger Zenden changed direction to get rid of Zambrotta, and was tripped by Zambrotta stretching his leg. As a result, Zambrotta got the second yellow card and was sent off.

Originally, the players in the Netherlands were still a little apprehensive, and Jiang Mu's prediction cast a shadow in their hearts, but after Merck sent off Zambrotta, the players in the Netherlands no longer had any scruples, and bombarded Italy indiscriminately. The ball possession rate even reached more than 80.00%. Italy is terrible and can only rely on fouls to break up the Dutch offensive.

At this time, no one believes in Jiang Mu's prediction anymore, and no one believes that Italy can make a comeback. The reporters also intentionally or unintentionally pointed the camera at Jiang Mu again, which is a bit gloating, and the commentators also think that Jiang Mu The record of predicting all hits will be broken for the first time, and using probability and Jiang Mu's error in predicting the Champions League champion to prove that the success rate of prediction will never be [-]%.

Five minutes later, the Italian team with one less player made the situation worse. Dutch winger Martian Overmars made a cross from the right. Kluivert received the cross from the right in the penalty area. Nesta behind her pulled her The action was sentenced to death by the German referee Merk. At this time, many people have begun to mourn for Italy.

Because the current Italian goalkeeper is not their main goalkeeper Buffon, because Buffon was injured, the substitute goalkeeper Toldo became Italy's main goalkeeper.

Although Toldo is a substitute, his goalkeeping skills are not bad. He reacts quickly, has a stable high-altitude ball, and has a good sense of the ball. In any other country, Francisco Toldo must be the absolute main goalkeeper of his national team , but in Italy, he can only be Buffon's substitute. If Buffon is not injured, he will not even get a chance to play for 1 minute.Although Toldo is not bad, the Italian fans trust Buffon more, but at this time the substitute Toldo started to go crazy. The Dutch captain Frank De Boer took the penalty with a knife. He shot vigorously with his left foot to the right of the goal. Toldo made the right judgment. He fell to the ground and saved the ball out of the right baseline.

In the 61st minute, Davis broke through with a high-speed dribble from the left. When he first entered the penalty area, he was tackled by defender Iuliano. Witte took the penalty, this time Toldo threw the wrong direction, but God appeared to help Italy, and Kluivert shot the ball on the left post like a ghost.

The Italian team survived the catastrophe. Although the Dutch team, whose morale was hit, still has a clear advantage, its offense has lost its sharpness. Most of the wing attacks were cut off by Cannavaro and Maldini. Very calm, he resolved the Dutch team's offensive one by one. Until the end of overtime, Italy never gave the Dutch team a chance to score, and the two sides began to take penalty kicks.

The Italian team lost all four previous penalty shootouts, including nearly three World Cups. The Dutch team was not much better, and had no chance in the three penalty shootouts (4 World Cup, 3 and 3 European Cup). One victory, but because the Netherlands missed two penalty kicks in the game, the pressure was all on the Netherlands.

At this time, when the commentator talked about Jiang Mu again, it was like talking about a monster. Although the game is not over yet, the balance of victory has fallen to Italy. Everyone feels that the victory is likely to be the Italian who was ravaged for 120 minutes .

When arranging the order of penalty kicks, Rijkaard did not know what kind of consideration it was. De Boer and Kluivert who missed penalty kicks in the game were among the five. De Boer still The first penalty.

De Boer still kicked to the right side of the goal, but Toldo judged the direction again, and he once again saved De Boer's penalty from the bottom line.So far, no one believes that the Dutch team can advance to the final again.

Then both Stam and Bosvelt missed the penalty kick, only Kluivert scored the penalty kick, and only Maldini missed the penalty kick in Italy. In the end, Italy lost one player and was completely passive. , and finally eliminated the Netherlands, which had the right time, place and people, with impeccable defense and tenacious spirit.

Facing the dramatic victory, Zoff remained expressionless after the game. A reporter asked him to smile, but it was unsuccessful. The head coach of the Dutch team, Frank Rijkaard, resigned immediately after the game and became the successor of Ribeck, After Denizli and Coelho, the fourth head coach to leave during this European Cup. -

Jiang Mu's prediction was so magical that the Italian commentator said with great surprise, "Today Santoldo and the god Jiang Mu defeated the mighty Dutch team together."

However, when the reporter wanted to interview Jiang Mu, who became the magical prediction emperor after this game, they found that Jiang Mu who had been in the stands of the fans had miraculously disappeared. Some fans confirmed that Jiang Mu was killed before the penalty kick Please go, but no one knows where.
