Chapter 2322 - 590: The Eighty Years’ War
It’s time, and the players are still somewhat nervous.
Huang Kaiwen decided to distract the players to ease their tension.
He stood up and asked, "There’s a man who keeps a fish, and the two rely on each other. One day, he found a girlfriend, and they started living together. The girl saw the fish and asked why he hadn’t prepared fish food. The man said, ’No need to feed, it’s always been kept this way.’ But a few days later, the fish died, why is that?"
"The fish couldn’t adapt to strangers and got scared?"
Robben asked immediately.
Huang Kaiwen shook his head with a smile.
"The woman didn’t like the fish and secretly poisoned it?" Sneijder asked.
Van Persie stared straight at Sneijder.
It feels like this bastard is kind of creepy.
Huang Kaiwen still didn’t speak.
"Is it because there are more people, and indoor temperature and oxygen changed?"
Gattuso tried to say.
As someone who often reads, he is willing to believe in science.
"Of course not."
Huang Kaiwen denied.
"The fish actually liked the man and got depressed seeing them intimate."
"The fish got sick."
"The fish didn’t like his girlfriend."
"Forgot to change the water."
The players vied to guess.
Huang Kaiwen still didn’t nod.
At this moment, Inzaghi said, "The food that was supposed to be for the fish was eaten by his girlfriend, so the fish starved to death!"
Huang Kaiwen smiled and clapped.
The locker room immediately erupted in applause.
The players just love this kind of topic.
Stekelenburg also joked, "Luke, you can actually keep a fish."
"I, I have a girlfriend!"
Luke De Jong argued.
Inzaghi said, "Then let your girlfriend eat less and share half with the fish."
Hahaha...
The laughter in the locker room grew louder.
Huang Kaiwen clapped and said, "Alright, don’t feel any pressure later, go out there and play well."
The atmosphere in the Spain dressing room was a bit strange.
Bosque decided to give the players some time to sort things out themselves.
Casillas looked at Ramos.
Ramos snorted disdainfully from his nose.
But then he suddenly thought, there’s an issue with this matter.
Although he didn’t mind clashing with teammates, Huang Kaiwen was the Netherlands coach, and those media might say it was directed by Huang Kaiwen.
It’s not good if it involves Huang Kaiwen.
Ramos sat beside Xavi, who had a band-aid on his face, and whispered, "I actually didn’t expect this would happen; you see, things just happened."
Xavi’s eyes widened, you didn’t expect it, did I then?
Torres hit him once; Ramos hit him once.
If it weren’t for his good physical health, he would be hospitalized like Iniesta.
Ramos scratched the back of his head, saying, "You see, you guys don’t read, if you had even attended university, our communication would become much easier, this misunderstanding is all due to cultural literacy gaps, although I’m in graduate school, I have no intention of discriminating against you. Enhancing your personal level is beneficial for your future as well, you haven’t even won the UEFA Champions League; no team would want you as a coach. But if you’re a university graduate, finding a job would be easy..."
Casillas rolled his eyes.
He felt Ramos might as well not say anything.
The waiting Bosque outside couldn’t listen anymore and quickly walked into the locker room.
If he didn’t interrupt Ramos, even though Xavi knew he couldn’t win, he would still want to have another go at Ramos.
...
When both teams were warming up.
The support rate was very apparent.
The Kiev Olympic Stadium has a capacity of 60,000 people.
But the most prominent on the stands were red and black striped jerseys.
Then blue jerseys, white jerseys, orange jerseys.
Finally, the red jerseys of the Spain Team.
Before the independence of the Netherlands, it was part of Ancient Rome, played by Frank and Shenluo. In the 14th century, the Spaniards made the Netherlands part of Spain through marriage.
Protestantism developed in the Netherlands, as a part of resistance against Spain.
From beliefs to various aspects of confrontation.
The Dutch independence war lasted a long time before shedding the status of a Spanish colony.
The Spaniards, during this time, wouldn’t mention these things if they weren’t out of their minds.
But previously, the Yellow Ball King had tipped off the "AS Newspaper" to revisit old issues.
This match was endowed with more colors.
Historical grievances.
The confrontation between Catholicism and Protestantism.
The clash between capitalism and feudal empires.
National Team matches are far less tactically skilled compared to clubs, UEFA Champions League is the highest level of competition in the world.
But the words like country, nation, faith, make National Team matches sacred.
Some say football is a continuation of modern warfare.
This statement is largely correct.
The "Hand of God" not only brought nationwide celebration in Argentina but made the Scots dance, even the term "Hand of God" was brought up by the Scots.
The royal families and senior politicians from the two countries appeared at the scene.
Celebrities and veterans were all present.
At this time, the fans may not notice.
But if you’re not present, the fans will definitely seek you out.
The Netherlands team has already become the most supported team on the planet, van Persie and Robben, these big star players found the fans were even more fervent than their club’s loyal supporters.
Their every move, reporters would like to print on the newspaper.
The flashlights on the sidelines never stopped.
Cassano and Totti sat together in the stands.
They weren’t wearing jerseys.
But whether from sentiment or other aspects.
They hope the Netherlands team coached by Huang Kaiwen laughs until the end.
