Chapter 1362 Quarterfinals vs Spain
It was already close to ten o'clock in the evening, and there was nowhere to go, and Meng Yun had just finished the game, so Zhou Haoran was embarrassed to drag him to drink or something.

The three talked for a while.

Of course, it was Meng Yun and Zhou Haoran who were talking, and Fang Yuan suddenly realized that she couldn't get in the way, and couldn't help being annoyed for a while.

"I have to go back." Meng Yun said: "You have seen today's game, and we still have a lot of problems to solve."

"En." Zhou Haoran nodded, "Go back first and rest early, today's incident is over, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs."

Meng Yun smiled, greeted Fang Yuan again, and turned to leave.

When the people walked away, Zhou Haoran suddenly realized: "Oh, didn't you say you want to sign an autograph and take a group photo? How can you forget it while talking."

Fang Yuan rolled his eyes at him: "Next time."

"Oh." Zhou Haoran suddenly realized, and next time, does it mean that next time Meng Yun can ask her out even if there is a competition? Little excited, "Well, Fang Yuan, does this mean that you agreed to be my girlfriend?"

Fang Yuan turned her head and smiled: "Of course. I didn't agree."

"what!"

"Ah, what?" Fang Yuan said, "Because you're not bragging, and because you and Meng Yun are friends, I'm going to agree to be your girlfriend? Cut!"

Zhou Haoran was stunned, he realized that he was wrong, and he was so disappointed.

Zhou Haoran still felt depressed the next day, so he called Meng Yun, hoping that Meng Yun would comfort him and mention the matter of getting Fang Yuan's autograph by the way.

On the other end of the phone, Meng Yun was amused and couldn't help but ask, "Hao Ran, are you happy being a dog licker?"

"Open..." Zhou Haoran quickly realized, "Bah, who are you talking about? You are a licking dog, a dog like a husky."

"Haha." Meng Yun laughed, "Old Zhou, you have to think about it from a different angle. This is actually a good thing. If she agrees to be your girlfriend just because I'm your friend, do you think it's interesting? Fang Yuan said I think the reaction is pretty good, she should be a good girl."

Zhou Haoran was stunned for a while, thought it was right, and suddenly became happy: "Well, what you said makes sense, Fang Yuan is not moved by external things, she is indeed the woman that Zhou Haoran has his eyes on."

Meng Yun couldn't help rolling his eyes, hung up the phone, and then turned to look at Director Gong's room, not knowing what was going on inside.

Lost to Argentina last night, the two matches of the second round of the group stage of the Chinese team are over, 1 win and 1 loss, it can only be said to be average, but because it needs to be added to the results of the first round, so the group is qualified and entered The top eight is not a big problem.

But yesterday's game was really bad.

After the game, everyone returned to the locker room, and the atmosphere was very depressing. Director Gong didn't come in, and didn't say a word. He waited until today to call Guo Ailun, Fang Shuo and others to his room, and then closed the door. Know if you are scolding them.

Meng Yun, Xiang Long, and Yi Jianlian were not called in, but apart from them, Wang Zhelin and Zhai Xiaochuan, who did not make any mistakes yesterday, could not escape.

It took more than an hour for the door of Director Gong's room to open, and the players came out one by one. Meng Yun grabbed Guo Ailun and asked, but Guo Ailun just shook his head without saying a word.

Meng Yun could only smile wryly.

However, during the training in the afternoon, Meng Yun found that his teammates were working extraordinarily hard. There was no laughter and slapstick in the training arena, only silence remained.

Everyone seemed to have been cast with a "sound-suppressing spell" by the palace guide, and they were surprisingly silent, but they didn't carry anything in the training, they worked extra hard, and they were obviously more focused and serious than usual training.

Although he didn't know exactly what the palace director said to them, seeing this situation, Meng Yun was relieved a lot.

Soon, the second round of the group stage was all over, and the quarterfinals were also fully announced.

The second round was divided into 4 groups. In group I, the Argentine team has a comprehensive record of 5 wins and 0 losses, ranking first in the group. The Chinese team has 4 wins and 1 loss, ranking second in the group. According to "the top two in the group qualify" According to the rules, the Argentine team and the Chinese team have the right to qualify, and the Spanish team and the Serbian team entered the eighth group to qualify. It is worth mentioning that the Serbian team, which was particularly optimistic before, is not the first in the J group. , they lost one game, 4 wins and 1 loss, ranking second in Group J.

The US team and the Czech team won the right to qualify in Group K. The Greek team led by Antetokounmpo had 3 wins and 2 losses in the two rounds, and finally failed to get the right to qualify for the group.

Group L qualified Australia and France.

Next is the 8-in-4 knockout match. According to the rules of cross-elimination of adjacent groups, the Chinese team, as the second in Group I, will play against the first in Group J, which is the Spanish team.

The Spanish team is the favorite to win the championship. So far, they have won all 5 games in the group stage. Even the Serbia team, which was the most popular team to win the championship, lost to them, which shows their strength.

There is no doubt that the Spanish team is the strongest opponent the Chinese team has encountered so far.

And now it's a knockout match, a game of life and death.

Shanghai, Shanghai Oriental Sports Center.

"I hope I can win this game and reach the semi-finals."

"The Spanish team is very strong, and even feels stronger than the Argentine team. This game is in trouble."

The fans are talking.

There is no doubt that the Spanish team is strong, but the Chinese team lost to Argentina in the last game, which made many fans not very optimistic about this game.

At this moment, players from both sides came to the court, and the game was about to start.

"Snapped!"

Xiang Long slapped the ball to the backcourt, and Meng Yun took the ball and started to advance.

The Chinese team is still a regular starter, while the Spanish team's starters are center Gasol Jr., power forward Clavier, small forward Hernangomez Jr., shooting guard Fernandez, and point guard Rubio.

This is a lineup of NBA players. Several starting players are either currently playing in the NBA or have played in the NBA before. They are all very strong.

In addition, the Spanish team also has NBA-experienced players such as Ruhr and Hernangomez on the bench, and their strength is self-evident.

In terms of the number of NBA players in a single round, the Chinese team is not as good as Spain, but the Chinese team has an advantage in terms of top combat power. Among the 32 teams, in terms of top combat power, only the US team can match the Chinese team.

After all, even if the Greek team has a giant like Antetokounmpo, they can't find another Xianglong!
Rubio came forward. He had fought against Meng Yun many times, and he knew Meng Yun well. He was more advanced in defense, and he was on guard against Meng Yun's sudden attack. As for Meng Yun's breakthrough, he was not very able to defend against it. , can only rely on teammates to help defend.

"Pick and roll."

Meng Yun asked for a pick-and-roll, and then broke through. Rubio was completely thrown away, Gasol Jr. was delayed, and Hernangomez Jr. on the other side also moved closer.

The next moment, Meng Yun split the ball and passed it to Abdu in the right corner.

Abdu took the ball and made a three-point shot without hesitation, but the ball was a little shorter and hit the ring. The Spanish team got the rebound and launched a counterattack
