Chapter 385
This is the highest treatment given by the Football Federation to this match between Morocco and Spain.
The FIFA president knew with his ass that this game was likely to end in an extremely uncontrolled chaos, so the FIFA even issued a notice in advance.
"We hereby inform you that in all the matches of the third round of the group stage, if there is malicious rioting by fans, large-scale malicious rushing to the field, and the match is forced to be interrupted for a long time, the team will be directly judged as the loser due to the large-scale irrational and malicious behavior of the fans, and additional penalties may be imposed."
There are too many life-and-death battles in the third round. The FIFA only hopes that the third round of the group stage can be carried out in a normal manner to determine the final winner.
After all, this is a game that is watched by billions of fans around the world. The FIFA will never allow any behavior that undermines the spirit of sports or even brings shame to the World Cup.
In the streets and alleys of all Spanish cities, in taverns, bars, banquet halls, open-air squares, central streets, city parks, etc., as long as there is a big screen, this crucial group match will be broadcast.
Every place was surrounded by enthusiastic fans, and everyone was waiting for this crucial life-and-death battle to begin!
At 5 pm local time, both sides officially submitted their starting lineups.
Live broadcast rooms in various countries were opened simultaneously, and more than two hundred and twenty live broadcast rooms around the world were opened simultaneously!
More than 300 million viewers flocked into various live broadcast rooms, waiting in front of their TVs, waiting for this focus battle to begin.
China Central Radio and Television, He Wei.
"Dear fans, you are now watching the focus battle of the third round of the Group B match of the 2018 Goose Rose World Cup. Both sides have submitted their starting lineups!"
"First, Morocco lined up in 4-2-3-1."
"Goalkeeper: Munir."
"Defenders: Ashraf, Manuel, Benatia, Dilar."
"Midfielders: Bousufa, Ahmadi, Belhanda."
"Forward: Ziyech, Boutaib, Noureddin."
"This Morocco team mainly plays with an offensive style. As long as there is space, they will fully demonstrate their offensive power on the field."
"For Spain, the starting lineup has been significantly adjusted compared to the first two group matches."
"Goalkeeper: David De Gea."
"Defenders: Alba, Ramos, Pique, Carvajal."
"Midfielders: David Silva, Busquets, Lin Chen."
"Forward: Isco, Diego Costa, Asensio."
"There have been adjustments to the wingers and midfield in the past two days. The lineup is younger and more powerful, which is obviously aimed at Morocco."
"Especially on the right side of Spain, Asensio and Carvajal will face the combined impact of Ziyech and Ashraf, and they have to withstand it."
Hierro has drawn up a detailed game plan, and it must be foolproof if he wants to beat Morocco.
As the battle gets closer, both locker rooms are making final preparations.
Lin Chen still wore his headphones, remained absolutely calm, and closed his eyes to rest.
The Spanish players are all making their own preparations for the opening.
Ramos and Pique were communicating defensive tactics, while Carvajal and Busquets were discussing when to press forward and when to retreat.
"Lin, are you ready?" Ramos suddenly patted Lin Chen's thigh.
Lin Chen nodded at him, stood up and applied essential oil on both arms.
This has become Lin Chen's pre-match habit, which can effectively prevent opponent players from committing pulling fouls on him due to their inability to defend, thereby ensuring that he will not be excessively disturbed when advancing counterattacks.
Hierro developed a tactic in this game that no one could have imagined.
There were still five minutes left before the battle began. The starting lineups of both teams entered the player tunnel.
Lin Chen still followed at the end of the team. Captain Ramos was the first to walk into the player tunnel, shouting at his teammates.
"Hold steady and remember our tactics!"
Most of the players in the Moroccan team turned their heads to observe the Spanish players. Ahmadi stared at Lin Chen, who was assigned a special task in this game.
A moment later, both sides walked onto the field, and as expected, the Moroccan fans began to boo, jeer, and disrupt the game crazily.
Ramos continued to keep all the players calm.
A moment later, the game begins!
"Beep!!!"
"The game begins, Spain kicks off!"
"There is a tactical design for the opening, pass the ball back to Lin Chen, Morocco is fighting hard for it!"
"Long pass!"
"As many as five Spanish players pressed forward simultaneously!"
"Pass it to Carvajal on the right, and sweep the ball to the back post!"
"Look back at the moon!"
"Isco's header was caught by the goalkeeper!"
"What a pity, I couldn't match the strength!"
"Spain creates a dangerous situation at the start!"
The rhythm after the opening of Spain is very interesting, first fast, then slow, then fast again and then slow again.
When the team has the ball, the tempo will be increased, and when the team does not have the ball, Spain will actively slow down the tempo.
And Spain did not play a ball possession tactic, and Morocco soon found that they had become the side with a higher ball possession rate on the field!
But Morocco doesn’t know how to fight a positional war!
The 6th minute of the game!
"Spain did not try to take the initiative to control the ball, Morocco dribbled forward and played a positional battle."
"The goalkeeper made a short pass to the left, Achraf had no space and Spain kept a tight formation."
“I could only pass the ball horizontally to the middle, and I almost made a mistake!”
"Ashraf's cross was a little weak and Morocco looked a little confused in positional warfare."
Gerrard quickly spotted Morocco's difficulties and Spain's tactical advantages.
"Herro is very smart. They know that Morocco's tactics require space, so they took the initiative to give the ball to Morocco, but Morocco does not know how to fight a positional battle!"
"When they have the ball, they lose more space and therefore lose the aggressiveness of their original tactics."
"Can you imagine?"
"Spain actually gave up possession of the ball on their own initiative. Hierro was fully prepared to win!"
Morocco was already in trouble on the field, and their midfield metronome Ahmadi felt a chill all over his body and a sense of uneasiness lingering in his heart.
Just as he was trying to figure out where this feeling of uneasiness came from, Ahmadi turned his head and suddenly saw Lin Chen, who seemed to be unintentional but was actually staring at him.
There was a strange curve at the corner of this young man's mouth.
Ahmadi had heard about Lin Chen's playing style on the court more than once.
When you are targeted by Lin Chen, it is like having a sickle at your neck!
Lin Chen smiled, life and death are unpredictable!
