Chapter 122 Top of the World
The German team celebrated and the game began again.
Although it was tied one to one and no one suffered a loss, the Germans who tied the score were very excited, while Brazil who was tied was very frustrated. After these emotions were expressed through the movements, the smell of gunpowder on the field became stronger. Fortunately, the two sides were still restrained, and the bald referee's ability to control the field was also very powerful, so no major conflict occurred.
But the unlucky Edmilson was hurt again.
Before the end of the first half, the German team got a corner kick opportunity. Ed Milson hit the post with his left knee as he jumped up to defend in front of the goal, which made people feel a toothache.
Fortunately, he was injured this time, so he sat on the ground for a while and stood up again.
At the end of the first half, both sides entered the locker room.
Scolari made a bold decision in midfield.
Replaced Cleberson and replaced Juninho.
This is undoubtedly a decision he made after combining the situation in the first half. What he bullied was that Germany's midfield offense was not strong.
This midfield substitution is significant.
Juninho's appearance freed Ronaldo and Kaka. They just needed to treat themselves as a striker or shadow striker, and then they were done with a reckless goal after getting the ball.
Klose, who scored the equalizer and Schneider, who broke Carlos, was undoubtedly the best player in the first half. He was naturally under the attention of the defenders, but Schneider was still strong under Carlos' focus. Although Klose showed signs of stealth, another German striker, Neuville, emerged again.
The Swiss-born French-speaking striker is the first international in German history to speak German, but this obviously does not prevent him and his teammates from cooperating on the court.
In the 51st minute of the game, Juninho broke through Metzeld in the middle. He did not give Ronaldo to the left, but shot with his left foot 18 meters away from the goal. After the football was saved by the brave Kahn, he immediately passed the ball with his feet for a long pass in the frontcourt. Neuville almost got the football under Gilberto Silva's life pull and knocked back from the left. Jeremez stepped forward to pretend to shoot, deceived Kafu and passed it over the top.
Neuville comfortably removed the ball and shot with his right foot 25 meters in front of the goal.
Cheney dragged the ball out of the bottom line.
The German team's corner kick was finally obtained by Carlos. He went to Schneider one-on-one on the left, and used an exact same man to fight back, passing the ball to Kaka.
Kaka passed the ball back to Juninho, and then rushed into the German team's penalty area with Ronaldo.
Juninho did not directly pass the ball to them, but knocked it to the right, Cafu inserted it at high speed, cut inside and entered the penalty area, and passed the ball to Ronaldinho.
Ronaldo has always been happy with watching people pass the ball. This time he also played again and secretly gave the ball to Kaka.
Kaka was being defended by Flins, and did not dare to play any tricks, so he kicked the ball directly.
However, after he kicked the ball, he was knocked to the ground by Link. However, based on the principle of favorable attack, Corina did not blew the whistle.
Ronaldo pulled Kaka's pass to his feet, penetrated Link's crotch and faced Kahn.
Kahn attacked, and Ronaldo made a move to push the ball into the lower left corner of the goal, but suddenly hit the ball when he was about to finish the shot, tricking Kahn directly.
"GOAL! Ronaldo passed Kahn in set and scored an empty goal! Brazil once again led the German team! Ronaldo scored in all the games that Brazil participated in this World Cup. He not only rewrites the history of the World Cup top scorer not exceeding six goals since 1978, but also raised this number to eight."
Naturally, there were no celebrations like front flips or samba dances on Ronaldo. Against the backdrop of the two rabbit teeth, his bright smile even seemed a little shy.
And this smiling face is destined to become the most brilliant color this summer.
In the 58th minute of the game, the score was 2-1.
The German team, which was once again behind, still meticulously executed the head coach's arrangements and firmly fought against the defensive counterattack.
As an arrow in Germany's counterattack, although Klose's performance was not as outstanding as in the first half, his flexible running position still successfully restrained Brazil's defense and gave his teammates some shooting opportunities.
In the 64th minute, Klose headed the ball, Neuville hit the left side, and Jeremez shot with his right foot 21 meters in front of the goal.
In the 65th minute, Cheney made a long pass with big feet. Ronaldinho got the ball and passed Kaka with a pick-up pass. Kaka passed the ball with his heel again, knocking the ball towards the front of the penalty area. Carlos inserted it at high speed and volleyed violently with his left foot.
The football hit the German defender and the sideline occurred. Although Kahn was panicked, he blocked the ball with his right foot.
Ronaldo followed up and shot the ball on the sideline, passing by his second goal.
The German team quickly gave Brazil a nearly identical long shot.
Bode got the goal kick from Kahn in the midfield, and passed it to the left for a long pass. Jeremez kept passing the ball directly across the middle. Haman followed and directly kicked the ball hard at the football.
The football whizzed through Brazil's penalty area. Cheney quickly watched and saved the ball, but the shot was very powerful and the ball was out of hand.
Kloze immediately rushed up and pushed the ball towards the goal before Lucio.
The Germans had already started to cheer, but Cheney quickly stood up in an almost impossible situation and rushed to the football again.
The football was caught when it was about to hit the goal line, and Edmilson cleared the ball with big feet.
Gilberto Silva and Metzelder competed for the landing point. Both of them hit the ball at the same time, but neither hit the position. They fell down lightly and were grabbed by Kaka.
Kaka pushed the ball across, adjusted it for a while, and shot a long shot about 36 meters away from the goal.
Kahn withstood the test and blocked the ball with both hands. Link broke the ball out of the baseline in a fight with Ronaldo.
Brazil's right corner kick.
The pace of the game was too fast, and the two goalkeepers became the busiest people on the field, and Corina ran up and down, almost becoming a dog as tired.
At this time, Scolari wanted to make a substitution adjustment and replaced Ronaldinho with Rivaldo, but Ronaldinho made a timeout gesture to the sidelines, indicating that he would finish the corner kick first.
Perhaps because I knew this was my last performance in this World Cup, Ronaldinho had been preparing for this corner kick for a long time, and he drove the ball out when Corina was ready to make a sound reminder.
The football drew an exaggerated arc and landed to the left of the goal.
Everyone thought he was going to pass Kafu at the back of the goal, but Kaka thought something was wrong at first glance.
Because he often practices free kicks together, he is too familiar with Ronaldo's set-piece characteristics.
The ball is a little too high, and the goal is definitely not the back point of the goal, but the upper left corner of the goal.
This guy is shooting.
Kahn also reacted and rushed towards the left side of the goal, but it was obviously too late.
The football bounced out at the junction of the goal post and the crossbar in Kakashiji's eyes.
Kahn followed up with a supplementary shot, but because the German defender was entangled and failed to hit the spot, the football was easily confiscated by Kahn.
With Ronaldinho being substituted, the German team also made adjustments, and No. 14 Asamoa replaced Jeremez.
Rivaldo got a great opportunity as soon as he got on the court.
Kaka broke through in the frontcourt and immediately counterattacked, hooked the ball out of Haman's feet and pushed it horizontally to Rivaldo.
Rivaldo calmly shot his left foot 20 meters in front of the goal.
It was a ball rolling ball, but it was fast and urgent. It was about to enter, but Kahn, who was unable to save, suddenly made a defender slip-tap move and rescued the ball.
The Germans just shouted that Ronaldo started at high speed, and threw away all the defenders and appeared in front of the football. He pushed the ball on the inside of his right foot at the edge of the small penalty area. The football entered the lower right corner of the goal without any suspense.
In the 80th minute of the game, Brazil led 3:1 and stepped onto the podium with half his foot.
"GOAL! Ronaldo scored twice! He finally walked out of the shadow of four years ago and staged the return of the king with nine gorgeous goals!"
Ronaldo ran to the sidelines with his arms wide open, as happy as a child.
After the game started again, the German team made a crazy counterattack.
In the 82nd minute, Link volleyed with his right foot at the front of the penalty area, and the ball hit Lucio in the face. Lucio came to the sidelines to rest and returned to the field. The German team took the opportunity to substitute. No. 20, Bierhoff replaced Klose.
Klose quickly ended his first World Cup journey. Although German fans were in pain, they still gave applause to their heroes.
In the 83rd minute, Bierkhov also got a chance when he first played.
He received a pass from Schneider from the right, leaned against Junior and shot half-turned, but was saved by Cheney from the baseline.
German team's corner kick...
Time passed by minute by minute, and the German team's offensive was thriving, but they still could not break through the Brazilian team's goal, but they almost got hit a counterattack.
The game is about to enter stoppage time, and many anxious German fans are already crying. The photographer has begun to do his job. The camera is facing the football celebrities on the sidelines and the focus of this cup competition such as Kloze and Ronaldinho.
In the 92nd minute of the game, Scolari used up the last substitution.
Denilson came on the court and replaced Ronaldo.
Ronaldo ended up in the cheers of the whole audience, but he did not go far, but stood on the sidelines with the team's substitutes and coaching staff members, waiting for the game to end.
There were no more twists and turns. In the 94th minute of the game, referee Corina blew the whistle to the end of the game.
The Brazilian players on the sidelines, wearing national flags, rushed into the stadium immediately, turning the battlefield that last second into a carnival stage.
In the distance, Brazil has also become a sea of joy.
"Congratulations to Brazil for winning the 17th World Cup championship. They won all seven games and became the only team in history to maintain a complete victory in seven games. Ronaldo, who had once become a public enemy of the whole country due to his sluggish performance in the final four years ago, returned strongly. He completed the crown with nine goals. The fledgling Kaka scored five goals in six games and had two assists, which amazed the world. Ronaldinho scored three goals, Rivaldo, who scored two goals, and Carlos who scored one goal were also important contributors to the team's championship..."
Kahn sat in front of the goal in desolate manner.
Born in June 1969, he spent his 33rd birthday in this World Cup, but God did not give him the best gift.
The twenty-four-year-old Klose also sat on the sidelines. Before he was nineteen, he had been in the amateur regional leagues and never thought that he would appear on the stage of the World Cup one day, nor did he expect that he would taste the bitterness of failure so quickly, one step away from success.
Barack sat in the stands, holding his chin with his hands, tears flashing in his eyes, but he forced himself to not fall. However, he was a little sad too early. The Super Saiyan legend, which belongs to "this No. 13 player won thirteen runner-up in his thirteen-year football career", has just started.
Time for the loser was soon over, and the German player who received the runner-up medal hurriedly left the stage and handed the stage to the Brazilian team.
Members of the Samba Legion knelt in the middle of the court and prayed to God.
The fifth star that will be embroidered in front of the Brazilian jersey will always be engraved with the glory they have created this summer.
Kafu took over the Hercules Cup, which countless professional players dream of from Blatt and Bailey, and held it high and over the top of the players' shouts.
Chapter completed!
