Chapter 588 Card Wars
This is the strongest Dutch team. The team's organizational core and offensive core performed well as key figures in their respective clubs in another top-level matchup.
Another striker of the team, Van Persie, also returned from the front line before the start of the World Cup and performed in a hot state, frequently contributing to the team.
Whether it is the viewing style of play or the team's performance, the Dutch team has made countless fans deeply remember the Orange Army and the charming fragrance of Dutch tulips this summer.
As their opponent, Spain, the Bullfighter, who has broken the historical record and reached the final for the first time, has proved to everyone that major bookmakers are optimistic about them.
Their football may not be as exciting as fast attack and fast defense, but it is also pleasing and stable enough. Before the game, countless professionals still believe that Spain is more likely to win the championship than the Dutch team.
The style of play is unsolvable, and the players are top-notch, it is difficult for you to find a national team like Spain that almost covers the core main players of Barcelona and Real Madrid. La Liga has successfully contributed to their national team over the years.
In this team, many of them are club teammates from the defense to the midfield. There is no problem of tacit understanding between them, which is not a little bit of improvement to the team's strength.
But can the Dutch team, which has a top offensive player like Pan Fan Van Persie, really not be able to break the Spanish team's defense line?
Football is round, and no one can predict everything before the game ends.
Therefore, when the two teams stood on the green field, all the commentators and fans in discussions shut their mouths. The quadrennial football event, not missing any detail is the key to everything.
In the stands, Liu Feng and Yuan Xiao were already staring at the stadium attentively. Even Liu Feng could learn a lot in such a top-level game.
"Shh!!!"
After a series of links were over, nothing could stop the game from beginning. With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.
In the first ten minutes of the game, the Spanish team wearing blue jerseys frequently created opportunities. First, the team's defender Ramos began to reverse and participate in the offense. He created shots in the fifth minute and the first minute of the game, but they were all broken down one by one by the Dutch team's focus.
Then, Villa made another shot hitting the side net, which shocked the Dutch fans in a cold sweat.
However, the Dutch team began to gradually exert force, and the ball began to be cut off by them in the backcourt and passed to the frontcourt.
But the next game did not develop in the direction of exciting attacks and blocks as the fans thought, but instead walked towards the direction of a card battle.
First, Van Persie tackled the opponent's full-back Capdvilla with a yellow card in the competition, and then Spain's defender Puyol also tackled Robben with a yellow card in a defense.
Both sides had enough anger before the 20th minute of the game, and the defensive players of the two teams were getting bigger and bigger.
In the 22nd minute of the game, Van Bomel brought down the attacking Spanish striker behind his back and received a yellow card.
In the 23rd minute of the game, just one minute after the last time he played the cards, Ramos, who was in a hot temper, directly put Kuyt on the Dutch team's side break through.
Then, seven minutes later, another Dutch midfielder, De Jong, stepped on Xavi Alonso's chest while fighting, and received his first yellow card.
This also means that both the Dutch midfielders in the 4231 lineup have received yellow cards, which also made them calm down instantly, because no matter how they look at it, there is a very likely situation where one less person will fight.
Against this background, the competition finally entered a period of peace and stability.
During this period, the Netherlands finally had the opportunity to show the world their top offensive level. From Pan Robben to the single arrow Van Persie in this game frequently created threats in the subsequent games.
Especially Robben, his opponent's defense did not hit his offensive enthusiasm, but instead made him more and more excited and continued to participate in the team's offensive organization.
However, it may be that the shooting boots were not worn well, and the Dutch team was not sure about the next two offensive opportunities, which made the Spanish team, which was already scared by the opponent's continuous attacks, breathed a sigh of relief.
Of course, Spanish goalkeeper Casillas is indispensable. Saint Casillas' voices have begun to be shouted out from Spanish fans, which has also made the Spanish goalkeeper more and more courageous.
Under such circumstances, the game time passes very quickly. When the referee blew the whistle to the end of the first half, everyone felt unsatisfied.
Midfielder Liu Feng and Yuan Xiao were excitedly discussing the situation in the first half. Liu Feng was happy to find that Yuan Xiao had more and more understanding of football after being with him, and he had far surpassed many ordinary female fans, which made him very happy.
After a brief halftime break, the game continued.
Spain, which was constantly defeated in the second half of the first half, began to change its posture and launch an attack after the opening of the second half. They created a corner kick opportunity after the opening of the second half.
Then, Puyol, who hit the ball, headed the ball and rubbed it. Capdwella volleyed just four meters away from the goal, but directly passed by, which made countless fans hug their heads in annoyance.
The Dutch team quickly changed their colors. The protagonist of their offense was still Robben. In the 52nd minute of the game, Robben received a pass from his teammate on the right and directly staged an inward shot that he was extremely good at.
However, this time, St. Cassi once again became the iron wall in front of the goal. He flew out and shot Robben after cutting inward.
During this period, both sides were so angry that they had already begun to restrain themselves, and their movements gradually became bigger. Soon, Dutch full-back Van Bronkhorst received a yellow card for blocking Ramos.
In less than five minutes, Dutch central defender Heatinga kicked Spanish center Villa and received his first yellow card.
The scenes of players constantly dyeing yellow made everyone frightened. At this moment, this yellow card is already the seventh in the game, and it has broken the yellow card record in the World Cup final.
