***********
A few minutes after Beckham's goal, the referee Hammett blew the whistle to end the first half.

On the electronic scoreboard at Bourne Stadium:
England 2:1 Greece!

When Rehagel walked towards the locker room, he looked back at the scoreboard. The back of the German who directed the myth of Athens seemed a little lonely at the moment.

***********
Rehhagel seemed relatively calm. He didn't even complain about the team's conceded goal at the end of the first half. Beckham scored a free kick. The Greek players were completely powerless about it. There is nothing to blame for Li Rui's foul.

The players of the Greek team seemed a little silent. In fact, at this moment, the Greeks basically had a clearer understanding of their own destiny.

Nothing more than two results: qualified or out.

Moreover, it now appears that the Greek team is more likely to be out. Since the situation is already very bad, then the only way out is to work hard to play this game well.

**********
For this defending champion, qualifying is naturally the best result, but to be honest, it is not a shameful thing to be out. Four years ago, the Greek team miraculously reached the top of Europe and created the "Athens Myth". The world is admiring, but today, 4 years later, the whole world can see that the defense they are proud of is not as good as it was 4 years ago. Moreover, if 4 years ago, the Greek team was still a mysterious dark horse , then the current defending champion has been thoroughly studied by each team.

Therefore, Rehhagel and the Greek players are not unprepared for the possible elimination of the Greek team.

***********
"I think you and I need to face the current situation clearly. We are one goal behind. If we want to qualify, we must beat the England team. I don't need to say more about the strength of the England team. So, after this game, Maybe there is only one game left in our European Cup trip, and the defending champion is eliminated in the group stage. , remember, 4 years ago, we were the kings of Europe, now, some people say that we are the weakest defending champions, I want to say, this is all fucking shit, champions are champions! ... this game, maybe we You will lose, but guys, please keep in mind that champions die with champions!! Give me all your strength! Don’t think about how strong your opponent is, and don’t think about the result of the game! ! If you still have a little bit of aggressiveness, let me defeat them! Remember, you are Greece, the defending champion Greek team!! Champions, have the dignity of champions!!"

Rehhagel's words were resounding, he looked at his players, and the players all looked up at him.

***********
Everyone found that after the start of the second half, the Greek team and the Greek team in the first half were completely different teams.

If the Greek team in the first half was a bit like a team waiting to die, then in the second half this Greek team reminds me of the Greek team from 4 years ago. Maybe their offense is not sharp, they don’t have beautiful football, some It's just an art of destruction, but, at the very least, the Greek team that people saw in the second half of the game was mentally more angry than in the first half, or it could be said to be a kind of spiritual support.

The defense of the Greek team was still very tight, and Li Rui felt that in front of him was a city wall made of a large piece of brown sugar, which made him very uncomfortable.

In terms of offense, the Greek team showed a strong momentum. Although their offensive effect is not good for the time being, it can be seen that whether it is the Greek national hero Charisteas or Liberopoulos Or Amanatidis, everyone is desperate, bursting out with the greatest energy they can.

Really desperate!
The Greeks are now not just fighting for qualifying, in fact, they are fighting for their dignity.As a team that has been brilliant and has created miracles, once the king of Europe, they have their own dignity.

A champion has a way of dying as a champion!

***********
In the 72nd minute of the game, the score on the field was still 2:1, and England led. However, after the start of the second half, the field fell into a stalemate. It was hard work, but no goals were scored.

"I have to admit that the Greek team is indeed worthy of respect. They are more difficult to deal with than we thought."

It’s no wonder Lineker said so. Although the score on the field is England leading 2:1, but in this game, England’s performance can only be said to be average. The team did not have the handicap in the game against Spain. The impressive offensive coordination, even these two goals, were also achieved by taking advantage of set-pieces. If there is anything commendable, it is that England's offensive ability in this game is not bad. Can exercise.

The game was deadlocked, and the fans in the stands were cheering loudly for their teams.

***********
Basten sat in the VIP box at the Bern Stadium, watching the situation inside the stadium. As the head coach of the Dutch team, he must pay attention to the Group D where England is in. The Dutch team has won two games now, and the group is basically determined. Transparent, in this case, the Dutch team will meet No.2 in Group D.

The current situation in Group D, after Spain lost to England in the first game, is the most likely No. Sweden's game, but I came to Salzburg in person to watch the game between England and the last defending champion Greece.

"We saw the figure of the Dutch coach Basten in the stands, which is a bit strange. Does Basten think that our England will qualify second in the group?" Lineker joked, in fact, almost all All Englishmen have placed the first place in the group qualifying on England. After England won Spain 5:3, no one thinks that the Greek and Swedish teams will pose a threat to England.

In this game, at the beginning of the game, the Greek team's goal made England fans nervous, but then Li Rui and Beckham's goals, in everyone's eyes, England has returned to the In a normal state, there is no suspense for winning the game.

***********
At this time, the Greek team almost equalized the score.

This is Hargreaves' interception error in the midfield. The Greek team quickly counterattacked. Fortress, gave the football to Kathuranis on the other side, and he turned around and ran towards the penalty area.

Katuranis made a cross. In the penalty area, Charisteas grabbed the header in front of Terry. England goalkeeper James was powerless, but the football hit the crossbar hard.

The Greek fans held their heads and let out a regretful inhalation sound, while the Englishman felt lingering fear.

"The offense of the Greek team is very similar to their goal in the first half. It is unimaginable that England was almost scored by the opponent with the same offensive method for the second time..." Lineker said, obviously, He is very dissatisfied with England's defense this time.

"Perhaps it's time for Mr. Mourinho to adjust," Lineker said.

***********
In the 75th minute of the game, the England team made a substitution. Walcott, who came off the bench in the last game, got another chance to play in this game. He replaced Hargreaves.

After playing, Walcott took advantage of his speed to frequently stage breakthroughs, which also made the somewhat dull game scene start to have waves.

Walcott received a low pass from Beckham, used his speed to break past Basinas, then dribbled the ball along the side, facing the interception of Sitaridis, Walcott smashed the ball, Immediately kicked the pass!

The football draws an arc.Fly to the restricted area.

***********
This cross was quite beautiful. He found the point of Li Rui. Li Rui stretched out his foot in the penalty area and put a pad on the dribble of the football. The football immediately changed direction and flew towards the goal.

Greek goalkeeper Nick Polidis made a wonderful save, but the football didn't roll away. Rooney came up and wanted to make a follow-up shot, but felt someone pushed him from behind, and he lost his focus all of a sudden.

The little fat man exaggeratedly stretched his arms in the air, screamed as if he was killing a pig, and then fell down in the restricted area!

***********
The referee Hammett's whistle sounded, he ran to the penalty area, and then, under the watchful eyes of the fans on both sides, pointed to the penalty spot!
"Yes, without a doubt!! It's a penalty!" Lineker cheered with his arms raised.

"Damn it! This is a flop!!" The Greek narrator wailed.

Lying on the ground, a little fat man fell down and got up on his own. With an ecstatic expression on his face, he was embraced by Li Rui. The two embraced in the penalty area of ​​the Greek team as if no one else was there, with their arms raised high. Fist to the sky.

The camera quickly switched to the sidelines. On England's coaching bench, Mourinho punched the ceiling of the coaching bench, and then applauded vigorously!
On the other side, Rehhagel yelled at the referee in dissatisfaction: "That's an obvious flop!" He rushed into the court and made a flop gesture, "A flop!! It's so obvious, you can't see it ?”

In view of Rehagel's emotion 'too agitated', the fourth official intervened in the past, and the Greek emperor turned his back with a cloudy face, looked at the night sky of Salzburg's rainy night, and the rain poured into his mouth .

In his ears, there was the arrogant celebration of the guy named Jose Mourinho... At this moment, Rehhagel almost wanted to rush over to tear the Portuguese's mouth, and then swung old punch...
