Chapter 423 Leading the Scorer List

The focus of the media around the world is either on the Anglo-Arab war that ended yesterday, or on the two strong dialogues that started that day, Brazil VS Switzerland and Germany VS Mexico.

Li Qing and the entire England team took a flight from Moscow to Rostov-on-Don, the capital of Rostov Region, to prepare for the second round of the focus game against Nigeria at the Rostov Arena.

The two teams that defeated Argentina and Iceland in the first round met in the second round of the group stage, which means that the winning team can qualify for the group in advance. Therefore, both England and Nigeria attach great importance to this game.

The biggest feature of the tournament system is that the schedule will become more and more intensive as the event progresses. If a team can advance from the group stage, it can allow many players who have not had the opportunity to play in the World Cup to experience the World Cup.

The England team is preparing for the second round of the group match against Nigeria in Rostov. During this time, the outside world has been continuously reporting on the latest preparations of Li Qing and England.

Li Qing, who has attracted much attention, is very focused and puts all his attention on the second round.

The senior's favorite performance in the first round also made him the top scorer in the World Cup. Some media predict that Li Qing can set a record that will be insurmountable by future generations at the end of the second round!

Two rounds of matches determine the World Cup Golden Boot!

Of course, this is just a guess, but many fans think this possibility is very high.

If you can score four goals against a team like Argentina, then you can't just pick up five players when playing against Nigeria?

The focus game held that night revealed a very big upset. The defending champion Germany lost to Mexico 0:1. It also gave those pseudo-fans who like to bet on football the possibility of buying a villa by the sea after seeing the game!

France, the 1998 World Cup champion, did not qualify in the 2002 World Cup group in South Korea and Japan. Italy, the 2006 World Cup champion, did not qualify in the 2010 World Cup group stage. Spain, the 2010 World Cup champion, did not qualify in the 2014 World Cup group. Will the 2014 World Cup champion Germany not qualify? Will he miss the group stage in 2018?

Competitions are always prone to upsets, so daring pseudo-fans tried to buy the opposite to see if they could get a villa by the sea.

Group F, where Germany is located, was left unfavorable, and Group G naturally had to be prepared. Brazil, the favorite to win, drew 1:1 with Switzerland.

There were no upsets in Group G, and the games with clear distinctions between strong and weak ended with the strong team winning.

When I thought that upsets would never happen again in the first round of the group stage, there was a very big upset in Group H. Colombia lost to the Sun Country 1:2.

With the emergence of this upset, the first round of the 2018 Russia World Cup group stage came to an end, and fans who followed the World Cup ushered in the second round of the group stage.

Li Qing paid more attention to Egypt's second round match against the host country. In the first round, Egypt, the strongest player in the group, had a very good chance of defeating Russia. However, the host country showed strong combat effectiveness and once led 3:0, but it was a pity that Salah It was too late, and his goal and assist failed to help Egypt equalize the score.

Li Qing, who had not traveled before, did not see anything wrong with Russia, but this time he found it strange that the host was in good condition. A big man like Jiuly, who was over 1.9 meters tall, could walk like flying for 90 minutes, which gave people a sense of wonder. Feeling tired...

Could it be that he took banned drugs?

Thinking of this, Li Qing shook his head and smiled bitterly, so what if the host took banned drugs?

It has nothing to do with him. There will definitely be an anti-doping organization responsible for investigating when the time comes.

Portugal's match against Morocco at the Luzhniki Stadium relied on Cristiano Ronaldo to win the game 1:0, while Spain also defeated Iran 1:0 with the same score and tied with Portugal for first place in the group.

The match between England and Nigeria starts at 9pm local time on June 21st in Russia, which is 2am on June 22nd, Imperial time. Although this time period is the work and rest time of Chinese people, a large number of Chinese fans choose to stay up late to watch this game. A focus battle.

The Chinese men's football team did not enter the World Cup in Russia, but England, led by Chinese Chinese Li Qing, entered the World Cup main match, and also performed four games against Argentina in the first round of the group stage, which also gave a large number of Chinese people a chance to compete in the second round of the group stage. expectations.

In addition, Nigeria has two main players playing in the Chinese Super League, which has also brought new attention to Chinese fans who stay up late to watch football.

The second round of the Group D match between England and Nigeria was the last match of the day. The first match was Denmark's 1:1 draw with Australia at the Samara Stadium. The second group match was played at the Central Stadium in Yekaterinburg. France relied on M Bape's winning goal defeated Peru 1:0, and France, which won the game, took the lead in qualifying from Group C with two consecutive victories. As for whether it is the first in the group, it will not be revealed until the end of the last round of the game with Denmark.

The group stage match between France and Peru ended. Players from England and Nigeria came to the Rostov Arena to warm up. Fans who followed the game also saw the starting lineups of both sides.

England is still in a 343 formation, but some adjustments have been made in terms of personnel. Goalkeeper Pickford, defenders Maguire, Stones and Kyle Walker, midfielders Ashley Young, Henderson and Li Qing and Alexander-Arnold, with Rashford, Harry Kane and Sterling forward.

The official formation given by Nigeria is 352, with goalkeeper Juanfran, defenders Omero, Ekon, and Balogun, midfielders Edowu, Etebo, Mikel, Ndidi and Moses, and forward I Xinacho partners with Ighalo.

The Rostov Arena, which can accommodate 45,000 fans, was packed. The England fans wearing white jerseys and the Nigerian fans wearing green jerseys were clearly separated. However, looking at the overhead camera, the England fans were crushing.

The game that started at 9 o'clock in the evening was also a crushing game. In the second round, Southgate only sent Henderson as a defensive midfielder for offense. Li Qing, who played the tenth position, was further away from the goal, but it did not mean that He couldn't score.

England's first goal came from Li Qing. He passed Leicester City player Ndidi from the front of the penalty area and completed a powerful and heavy long-range shot. The ball was like a cannonball, and goalkeeper Juanfran reacted repeatedly. None were made.

"Eleven minutes into the game, Li Qing helped England open the scoring!"

China Channel 5 commentator Zeng Kan shouted hysterically: "Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal worth three points in the second round of the group stage and tied with Li Qing for the top spot in this World Cup. The arrogant Li Qing He definitely doesn’t want to be tied with Cristiano Ronaldo! His world wave helped England break the ice and also led the scorer list again! His fifth goal in two games!”

Nigeria midfielder Ndidi looked at Li Qing celebrating his goal, put his hands on his hips, and sighed, Li Qing is still Li Qing...
