Chapter 468: Be careful when sailing the ship of ten thousand years

England took the bus to the outside of Luzhniki Stadium, and England fans, Chinese fans and neutral fans all subconsciously let out a burst of cheers.

The momentum was huge, and the sound erupted by tens of thousands of fans was as violent as a tsunami, one wave after another.

"aoaooaooaooaoooooo——"

All the players sitting in the bus stood up and waved to the fans and supporters on both sides of the road.

I don’t know if it was a deliberate showmanship by FIFA. As soon as the England players stood up to say hello to the fans, they were met by a bus with the French team’s logo on it. The buses crisscrossed each other slowly and headed towards the people passing by their respective locker rooms. Bus passage.

Because there are so many fans, the players in the bus can see each other's players as the cars pass by each other.

Almost instinctively, most of the French players looked at Li Qing.

Facing all kinds of looks, Li Qing was very speechless and thought to himself: "Why are you all looking at me? I don't like men."

Finally, simply close your eyes.

At the same time, most of the French players imagined a situation in their minds - Li Qing did not dare to look at him, he must have a guilty conscience, and he probably missed the next World Cup final due to injury.

There were long queues at every entrance to the Luzhniki Stadium. It was completely overcrowded. Many fans without tickets also poured in. It wasn’t that they wanted to fish in troubled waters and enter the stadium, but to see if they could meet those who didn’t want to. Fans or scalpers who temporarily entered the venue to watch the World Cup final.

The huge chants that rang out from the outside of the square continued until the players from both sides took the bus and entered the tunnel, but the atmosphere was still fanatical.

The 2018 World Cup final is coming soon!

Every fan can't wait.

In order to make the smoke bomb prevention more obvious, England head coach Southgate asked Li Qing to hit him before getting off the bus, and his expression changed with a clear frown. Moreover, he had to stay in the locker room when the players warmed up. Simple warm up.

Whether Li Qing was injured or not was the most concerning thing in France, so there was a special person keeping an eye on him.

After receiving the news, Deschamps, the French head coach, still didn't believe it. He said to himself suspiciously: "Really injured? It's impossible, right? He was still very active in the warm-up and in excellent condition..."

It wasn't until the players entered the field to warm up that they didn't see Li Qing that they realized that Li Qing might really be unable to play in the World Cup finals due to injury.

this……

Despite this, Deschamps, who is cautious by nature, decided to be prepared to avoid being caught off guard.

It is good that Li Qing missed the World Cup final due to injury, but if Li Qing's injury is a smoke bomb set by England, there are backup options to deal with it.

…

Players from both sides entered the court to warm up, but Li Qing, who had attracted much attention, did not appear on the court. This made many reporters and fans who came to the scene feel a little uneasy and couldn't help but think - is the injury real?

China Channel 5 is the official cooperative media of the World Cup. There is still more than an hour before the game. There is a dedicated cameraman carrying the camera to look at He Wei, who came to the stadium to work as a part-time reporter.

It was around nine o'clock in the Imperial City, and a large number of fans gathered in front of the TV/computer monitor. Through the broadcast, they could see the nearly packed Luzhniki Stadium, and then heard Hevina's familiar voice: "Audience Friends, what you are seeing now is Luzhniki, the venue for the 2018 Russian World Cup finals. Players from both sides are now coming to the stadium to warm up... What is strange is that the Chinese player Li Qing did not come to the stadium. Is it as the Internet said? We still don’t know the extent of the injury, and we can only reveal the details after the official starting lineup appears..."

There were many reporters like He Wei who were interviewed by their respective cameras. The focus was exactly the same, which was whether Li Qing was injured.

As the England players warmed up and entered the ball state but still did not see Li Qing, almost all reporters present thought that Li Qing was really injured. Otherwise, how could he not come out to warm up?

Even if Li Qing is able to play, it may be due to isolation, and his condition will definitely be greatly reduced by then.

The smiles on the faces of the French reporters are getting thicker and thicker. In their view, the biggest obstacle preventing the French team from winning the World Cup is Li Qing. Whether Li Qing is injured and unable to play or plays with an injury, it will be difficult for France to win the championship. !

…

About an hour before the start of the game, the starting lineups of players from both sides of the game appeared on the official FIFA website.

Li Qing's name appeared on England's starting list, but because Li Qing did not go to the stadium to warm up, many media reporters and fans thought that Li Qing might have closed the locker room for a simple warm-up.

As a result, there was a trend on the Internet. These fans believed that England would not hesitate to destroy the 17-year-old Li Qing for the World Cup.

Fortunately, the game is about to start, otherwise England's preparations will definitely be greatly affected.

French head coach Deschamps looked at England's starting list and fell into deep thought. Li Qing appeared on England's starting list, but he was not sure whether Li Qing was injured or not.

After a while, he let out a long sigh. No matter what, he still dealt with it as usual, even if it was a waste of half the game.

He remembered that there was a saying from the Celestial Dynasty that was right: be careful and sail the ship for ten thousand years.

If Southgate could know what Deschamps was thinking, he would be speechless and feel that all his efforts today were in vain.

But then again, it has no real impact on Southgate, and it also requires Deschamps to spend a lot of time on research.

Southgate was a little surprised when he got France's starting list. Dembele, who he thought might start, was replaced by Giroud. The other positions did not change, but the formation changed from the original 433 to a relatively balanced offensive and defensive 4231.

Goalkeeper Lloris, defenders Lucas Hernandez, Umtiti, Varane and Pavard, double midfielder Kante to partner with Matuidi, three forwards Mbappe, Pogba and Gerard Lezmann and Giroud are at the front.

He Wei, who came to the live broadcast room, also got the England starting list from the staff of China Channel 5. Although Li Qing's name appeared on the starting list, his brows were still wrinkled because...he and fans all over the world I don't know whether Li Qing was injured or not.

A player of Li Qing's level will persist even if he is injured, unless it is blocked, it will be useless.

The official formation given by England is 343. The goalkeeper is still Pickford, the three central defenders are Maguire, Stones and Kyle Walker, the midfielders are Milner, Henderson, Dier and Arnold, and the forwards Sterling and Harry Kane and Li Qing.

Compared with the past starting lineup, Southgate sent four Liverpool players in this game.

He Wei was very confused, why?

Could it be...

Is Li Qing's injury a smoke bomb?

To confuse France?

If this is the case, then it makes sense to field four Liverpool players in the final. The biggest feature of playing for the same club is their tacit understanding...
