The two sides agreed to the plan.

"Uncle Chen, I won't cheat you. 40 million euros for 15% of Leeds United."

"20%."

"Too much. 16% is my limit."

"Xiao Li, given Leeds United's current influence, your valuation is a bit high. Let's take a step back and take 18%, how about taking the middle value?"

After thinking for a while, Li Shiguang finally agreed to Lao Chen's proposal. Lao Chen also said that he would do his best to promote Leeds United's China trip next year.

June 10.

Li Shiguang and the other two appeared on time at the Allianz Arena in Munich to watch the opening match of this World Cup, the match between host Germany and Costa Rica.

Many players of Leeds United have been called up to the national team for this World Cup, and most of them will change from teammates to opponents on the field within this month.

In today's game, Lahm and Podolski, who performed well in Leeds United, will play as the starting players of the German team, and if Li Shiguang's appearance does not affect today's game, Lahm should score the first goal of this World Cup later.

But after the starting players of the two teams entered the field, Li Shiguang still found something that changed because of his appearance.

That is, Deisler appeared in the starting right forward position of the German team today.

In the original time and space, Deisler did not participate in this World Cup at all, but the injury card that Li Shiguang used on him last year allowed him to get rid of the pain this year, and he had a good performance both in Leeds United and after going to Liverpool, which made the German coach Klinsmann call him into the big list of this World Cup, replacing the original Schneider.

After a grand opening ceremony, this World Cup officially kicked off!

As soon as the game started, the host German team showed strong offensive firepower. Klose was blocked after breaking through the left rib and passed the ball back. Frings followed up from the midfield and directly blasted a falling leaf ball. Unfortunately, the ball was slightly higher than the crossbar and fell on the net behind the goal frame.

Frings' heavy shot also sounded the horn of the German team's attack in this game!

Just like in the previous life, in the 5th minute, Klose's breakthrough in the middle was destroyed. The ball came to the left side. Lahm inserted a fake move from behind and shook a Costa Rican full-back. Then he blasted a world wave directly from the edge of the penalty area. The ball drew a beautiful arc in the air and went straight to the dead corner. 1:0, just 5 minutes after the start, the German team took the lead!

Four minutes later, Schweinsteiger took the ball from the left and cut inside to send a beautiful through pass. Klose successfully broke into the penalty area after offside, but the Costa Rican goalkeeper decisively rushed out to save it. But then the German team immediately launched a counterattack. Klose stole the ball at the edge of the penalty area and the ball was taken away by Deisler who inserted. Unfortunately, Deisler who broke into the penalty area directly fired a cannon at the goalkeeper.

The German team was punished for wasting this opportunity. Two minutes later, Costa Rica found an opportunity from the right. Wanchope knocked the ball in the middle circle and then moved forward. Gomez, who received the ball, sent a wonderful through pass with his left foot without stopping the ball. Wanchope, who was happy to get a big single shot, faced Lehmann who attacked and calmly pushed the ball into the lower left corner of the goal. 1:1, Costa Rica equalized the game!

After Costa Rica equalized the score, the 4,000 away fans who came to the scene went crazy, which was undoubtedly a blow to the German team, which was in a strong momentum.

No one expected that in this World Cup opening match, two beautiful goals appeared in just 11 minutes after the start!

But only 5 minutes had passed, and Germany took the lead again.

Deisler made a beautiful turn on the right to get rid of the defense and directly passed the ball back near the baseline. Schweinsteiger received the pass in the penalty area and passed it to the back point after passing the defense. Klose rushed to the goal and easily scored with a shovel shot. 2:1, Germany took the lead again.

The three goals scored by the two teams in 17 minutes also completely ignited the enthusiasm of the fans on the scene.

In the 22nd minute, Schweinsteiger made another threatening pass on the left, and Podolski kicked a beautiful volley at the top of the penalty area, but it was confiscated by the goalkeeper because the shot was too straight.

In the 39th minute, the German team won a direct free kick. Podolski attacked again, and a high-quality direct free kick made the Costa Rican goalkeeper sweat. Unfortunately, it was slightly higher than the crossbar!

Then, the referee

The whistle for the end of the first half was blown.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and started the game. As soon as the game started, Podolski, who was active in this game, made a shocking shot. He received a pass from Deisler at the front of the penalty area and shot directly, but the ball was slightly higher than the crossbar again. Li Shiguang smiled bitterly and shook his head. It seems that Podolski was unlucky today..

In the 60th minute, Frings took the ball in the middle and passed it to Lahm who came in from the left. Lahm, who was unguarded, took a big step forward after receiving the ball. After observing the position of his teammates in the penalty area at the bottom line, he calmly passed a beautiful cross. As a result, the ball was touched by the Costa Rican defender at the front point and accurately found Klose who was squatting at the back point. Klose's header was saved by the goalkeeper, but he reacted quickly and immediately followed up with a right-footed shot into the far corner of the goal. 3:1, the German team continued to expand its lead.

The German team, which was leading by 2 goals, relaxed a little in the latter part of the game. Finally, in the 72nd minute, Costa Rica found an opportunity from the middle. Centeno's exquisite right foot passed through the German team's defense and directly found Wanchope who broke into the penalty area, allowing the latter to get the second single knife of the day, 2:3, and the suspense of the game rose again.

After the game resumed, the German team, which had been pulled back by one goal, launched a large-scale attack again, creating dangerous situations in Costa Rica's penalty area continuously, but they were just a little bit away from scoring.

In the 86th minute of the direct game, Schweinsteiger made a free kick across the middle, and Frings followed up in the midfield and shot directly. The ball was like a missile and hit the dead corner of the goal with great force. Following Lahm at the beginning, Frings knocked on the gate of Costa Rica with a world wave, 4:2.

In the remaining time, Costa Rica could no longer turn the tide. After 4 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the game. Germany finally won the World Cup with a score of 4:2.

This wonderful goal battle also made fans all over the world look forward to the next game.

Similarly, Li Shiguang in the stands began to look forward to the performance of Leeds United players in the next game after seeing the wonderful performance of Lahm and Podolski today.

After all.

The better their performance, the more expensive Li Shiguang can be sold!
