The World’s First, Second and Third are Me

Vol 2 Chapter 1066: Brazil 2014 World Cup lottery results

　　Beach, Piahí, Brazil.

　　 Dong Fangzhuo was interviewed before the draw of the 2014 Brazil World Cup. The day before, he had just celebrated his 29th birthday.

　　 Today, he appeared here as a World Cup lottery guest and World Cup ambassador.

　　 At this time, nearly 1,000 reporters appeared at the gate of the lottery ceremony. When they saw Dong Fangzhuo appear, they immediately gathered around.

　　 "Dong, you are 29 years old this year. Do you think your status has declined?"

　　 The first question is quite tricky.

　　 Yes, he is 29 years old this year. In the previous three years, he has not won the Golden Globe Award, one second and two third. There may not be a drama this year, because Messi and Ronaldo are still pulling high, but the gap between him and them is not big.

But the data is deceptive. Although his scoring data is not as high as the two of them, his overall data has not declined. He still remains at the peak. In 2012, he handed over 40 goals and 35 assists in 2013. , He handed over 45 goals and 37 assists, which is crazy data.

But there are no other two abnormal goals. In this era, it seems that the goals are mostly research data. In 2012, the Golden Globe was taken by Messi. That was Messi scored 93 goals, while in 2013 was Ronaldo took it, Ronaldo scored 73 goals, and led the team to kill Sweden in the playoffs.

　　 He is actually still impeccable, but with a relatively low goal score compared to Mero, but his number of assists has been unrivaled, the undisputed first.

　　 "Am I in a state of decline? I can still play for ten years."

　　 Dong Fangzhuo's answer was sonorous, "Where did you see my status slip?"

　　 "I think it's not just me, even Messi and Ronaldo will maintain their peak state for many years. I don't believe you will wait and see."

　　 "In 2014, what is the World Cup goal of the Chinese team?"

　　 "First try to qualify for the group, hoping to get a good group."

　　 "It is possible to win the World Cup's top scorer three times in a row this year. Do you think the biggest opponents are Messi and C Roma?"

　　 "I think Mueller in Germany is also a potential candidate."

　　 "Unlike the national team and the club, the strong players of the national team have more advantages."

　　 "Who do you think might win the championship this year?"

　　 Dong Fangzhuo smiled, remembering the results of his last life.

　　 "Maybe Germany, maybe Argentina, maybe Brazil? The Netherlands is also good."

　　 "Is there any drama in China?"

　　 "Ahahaha, you're so kidding, let's find a way to qualify for the group first!"

　　……

　　In this World Cup, only four Asian teams entered the final stage, namely China, Japan, South Korea and Iran. The final strength is naturally China. The last World Cup Chinese team achieved the third place in the Asian team’s best result in the World Cup. The Chinese team is still given high expectations in this World Cup. Compared with four years ago, the Chinese team is more mature. Too. But the third place seems to be the limit...

　　 Before the ceremony started, a video was played to express the nostalgia and tribute to Mandela who had just passed away.

　　 Then the Secretary-General delivered a speech, followed by another World Cup Ambassador Ronaldo.

　　 Ronaldo said at the stage: "For me, organizing the World Cup is more difficult than scoring 18 goals in the World Cup. We are confident that we can host the best World Cup to date."

　　 "I hope that my motherland can host the World Cup since I was a child. This dream can finally be realized this year. I hope we can win the Hercules Cup at home."

King Bailey also made a speech and said: "I have no doubt about Brazil. I think they will reach the final. I will never forget the 1950 World Cup final in Brazil. When the host lost, I saw my father cry. This time At the World Cup, I don’t want the kids to see me cry."

　　 Dong Fangzhuo, who stood beside them, silently mourned them for a few minutes, because he knew that Brazil had been defeated by Germany 7:1 in the semi-finals, setting their worst record in the World Cup...

　　 Of course, he could not tell them the result, that is, they would not believe it.

　　 "Do you think this year's champion is Brazil?" The host suddenly came coldly.

what?

　　 Bailey quickly covered her mouth and almost got caught. He can say that Brazil has reached the finals, but he can never say that Brazil is the champion.

"I do not know……"

　　 As the most famous crow mouth, Bailey certainly does not curse his own country. In fact, he could have drawn for the World Cup, but he refused, and the reason for his rejection was to worry about bringing bad luck to Brazil.

　　 The ball king Bailey did not dare to joke about the fate of his motherland.

　　The king of the ball Bailey has a well-known nickname "crow mouth", because when he predicts the competition, he often appears that he is optimistic about who will be out, which makes people laugh.

In various world competitions, Bailey is willing to make predictions, which adds a lot of fun to the off-site. His predictions also attract people's likes and dislikes, but he usually likes him because he is optimistic about his team's opponents. He is the team that he is optimistic about, and even some people who participate in the gambling are aiming at Bailey. As long as Bailey predicts who will win, it is right to bet his opponent to win. After all, Bailey’s "crow mouth" success rate is still Quite high.

　　 Bailey's "crow's mouth" has a long history of fame, and it's too early to tell when it was really famous. As early as the 1994 World Cup, Bailey publicly declared that Colombia was a strong contender for the championship. As a result, Colombia failed to qualify from the group. Colombian defender Escoba also died of a mob shot shortly after returning to the country because of the goal. Bailey's "crow's mouth" became even more famous.

In the European Cup in 1996, Bailey expressed his optimism for Turkey and Italy to win the championship. As a result, both teams died in the group stage; in the 1998 World Cup, Bailey's "crow mouth" reputation has been tremendous, and all teams have Fearing to be optimistic about him, Spain unfortunately became the prey of the "crow's mouth" and died in the group stage; in 2004 European Cup, Bailey strongly supported England in the English-Portuguese playoffs. As a result, Rooney started the injury and ended with an English penalty Lost; or the 2004 European Cup final, Bailey is optimistic about Portugal, the result of the Greek team's European championship dream.

　　Bailey is not only "mouth black", but his lottery hand is also very "black". In the 2006 World Cup group draw, he drew the Netherlands team with Côte d'Ivoire, Serbia and Argentina to become the group of death. In fact, Bailey himself has long known that his mouth is "poisonous". Later, when he predicted Brazil's game, he said that his opponent would win. This method has also been unsuccessful. For example, in the 2002 World Cup, Bailey began to shut his mouth tightly, saying that Brazil would win the championship, and has always expressed support for Brazil's opponents. As everyone knows, Brazil finally won the championship...

　　 Finally, it was Dong Fangzhuo’s turn to speak.

　　 "I think Bailey can actually predict the result."

　　 "He can say that Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, Argentina, and France are the champions, this effect will be very good..."

　　 laughed under the stands.

　　 Then Bailey took the initiative to stand up and say, "No, no, no, I think China is the champion of the Brazil World Cup in 2014."

　　嚯~, there was another laughter in the stands.

"thanks, thanks."

　　 "I think we have such a little possibility... I can be sure that the Chinese fans in front of the TV must be watching you closely..."

　　 Dong Fangzhuo also smiled, but the Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV watching the live broadcast scolded.

　　 "My grass, Bailey."

　　 "My grass, my grass, there was still a little hope, but now there is no hope at all, Dong Fangzhuo, you should not tease Bailey to make this joke."

　　 "It's over, it's over, what should I do?"

　　……

　　 Everyone's face was covered with a thick shadow.

　　 Seriously, Chinese fans did fantasize about the World Cup champion. Who doesn't dream? As long as you have the strength, you should be full of longing for the champion. The Chinese team was the third place in the last World Cup, and almost reached the final.

　　 This year, the Chinese team has not really been afraid of which team...

"Cough, come back to the truth, first of all, I want to wish Brazil to host a perfect World Cup, there is nothing more perfect than hosting the World Cup in the football kingdom. I hope that China can also host a World Cup in the future, hope the world’s attention Are all focused on China."

　　 In fact, China is already in action. Before the opening of the 2014 World Cup, the place of the 2022 World Cup will be announced and China participated in the competition. With Dong Fangzhuo as a guy, the probability of the Chinese team applying to host the World Cup is still quite high, and in recent years, Dong Fangzhuo has been working hard for China to host the World Cup.

After the 2018 World Cup in Russia, China hopes to host the World Cup in 2022.

　　 "Our Chinese fans have the same passion for football as the Brazilian people, there is no difference."

　　 "I also hope that the judges can vote for China."

　　 got it, Dong Fangzhuo had already canvassed at the scene.

After 　　, the lottery officially started.

FIFA Secretary-General Walker presided over the draw, with eight former champion team representatives and Dong Fangzhuo as guests, including Hearst (England), Cannavaro (Italy), Matteus (Germany), Zidane (France) , Hierro (Spain), Cafu (Brazil), Higia (Uruguay), Kempes (Argentina). 86-year-old Higia played on a walking stick. He scored the winning goal in the 1950 World Cup to decide the championship.

　　 32 teams will be divided into 8 groups, 4 teams in each group, and the top 2 in each group will enter the top 16 elimination rounds. Host Brazil and Spain, Germany, Argentina, Colombia, Belgium, Uruguay, and Switzerland, the world’s top seven in October, are listed as seed teams (first gear); 5 African teams and 2 South American teams entered the second gear ; 4 Asian teams and 4 North American and Caribbean teams entered the third gear; fourth gear is 9 European teams, including Bosnia and Herzegovina, the only new face in the draw. The draw guarantees a maximum of 2 European teams in each group, and other teams on the same continent cannot be in the same group.

　　 The first step draws a team from the fourth gear and puts it into the second gear, so that each gear is 8 teams. The drawn European team will surely meet one of the eight European teams in the fourth gear and be in the same group as one of the four South American seed teams. Hurst pulled the ball, but it was not immediately revealed. Then Cafu draws the first gear. Brazil, as the host, automatically enters the A1 position. The other seed teams decide their group by drawing lots, and automatically enter the first place in this group. They are Spain (B1), Colombia (C1), Uruguay (D1), Switzerland (E1), Argentina (F1), Germany (G1), Belgium (H1).

　　 Then decided which South American seed team was in the same group as the second European team, Zidane pulled out Uruguay, the second European team was Italy, and Italy entered Group D (D4). Then draw 7 non-European teams in the second gear, two South American teams Chile and Ecuador can not be in the same group with 4 South American teams in the first gear. The other two teams have since become separate players. Croatia, drawn A2, will be the opponent of the Brazil opener.

　　 Dong Fangzhuo personally came to draw the third team, I have the fate of the Asian team in his hands. South Korea was the first to be drawn, and South Korea was thrown into Group B.

　　 The moment the lottery was drawn, Dong Fangzhuo was scolding the whole of Japan.

　　 "Dong, you bastard! Your stinky hand!"

　　 "The Chinese are too bad. Did they do anything?"

　　 "Baga Yalu, Baga Yalu!"

　　 "......"

　　 The reason is very simple, because there are defending champions in Group B, Spain, the uncrowned king of the Netherlands, and South American powerhouses. It is equivalent to half of Chile at home. The Japanese team falls into this group. Isn't it for soy sauce?

　　 "Cough, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..." Dong Fangzhuo refrained from laughing, it was the most tragic draw for the Japanese team, the death team!

　　 Then he reached out and pulled out again.

　　 "china."

　　The audience cheered, and the Chinese team was laughing.

　　Dong Fangzhuo's second choice was China, and China fell into Group C!

　　 Japanese fans scolded louder.

　　 "Shady, shady! Absolute shady!"

"Why?"

　　 "Why is Japan in Group B and China in Group C?"

Mamma Mia! ! ! !

　　 Yes, the Chinese team is in a group with Colombia, Greece and Côte d’Ivoire. This is a relatively relaxed group.

　　 In China, fans are also very excited.

　　 "It's stable, this time it's really stable. Even after the group appeared, the opponents in the knockout are relatively weak... Gee, Dong Fangzhuo's luck is really terrible."

　　 Then ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Iran team was drawn into Group E by Dong Fangzhuo, and Iranian fans were not happy, because the opponents in the same group were Argentina, Bosnia and Herzegovina... It seems there is no hope of qualifying?

　　 Finally, Dong Fangzhuo threw South Korea into Group H.

　　 Park Ji-sung and South Korean fans in front of TV are crazy because Belgium, Algeria and Russia are in the same group.

　　 Great drama.

　　 "Dong, good brother."

　　 "Good luck."

　　Piao Zhixing gave thumbs up to Dong Fangzhuo in front of the TV, and South Korean fans did not scold Dong Fangzhuo for the first time.

　　At this point, all the top 32 draws are in place, grouped as follows:

　　Group A: Brazil, Croatia, Mexico, Cameroon
