Soon, Bella and Catherine were recognized by some fans of England.
In the original Premier League league, when Arsenal faced Manchester City at home Emirates Stadium, Bella and Catherine left a deep impression on many England fans.
Especially the charming smile of Bella, which caused the media after the game to compare this smile to the smile of the goddess of victory.
Today, this smile appears here again.
Bella has always been considered a fan of Arsenal, because she was in the stands where the die-hard fans of Arsenal were.
However, today it seems that Bella is a supporter of Li Mingyu.
The shy England girl next to her is the real supporter of England National Team.
However, maybe Bella's smile infected the England players.
In the end, England defeated Switzerland National Team 3:0, and Sterling scored two goals.
In the next game, the biggest upset of this World Cup was revealed.
Germany National Team actually lost to his opponent 0:3 in the match with Australia.
An exhausted Germany tank, just like the Spain National Team eight years ago, was brutally killed by its opponent.
After this game, public opinion was in an uproar.
Li Mingyu, who was watching the game in the hotel, also shook his head for a while.
This is World Cup, no opponent can underestimate it.
Every time World Cup, there will always be stars falling, and there will also be stars rising.
A new generation replaces the old, this is the charm of football.
The fourth match day also passed quickly.
Croatia drew with Italy 1:1.
Nigeria drew with Paraguay 1:1.
Portugal 2:0 beats Denmark.
Senegal 1:0 small victory Ecuador.
The first round of the game ended like this.
Of the sixteen games in the first round, only six were draws, and the other ten games were all decided.
The total number of goals in the sixteen games reached 34, with an average of 2.125 goals per game. This goal efficiency is quite good. Although it is not up to the highest level, it is not bad to have so many goals in the first round of World Cup.
Among these goals, there are also some wonderful shots that leave fans with endless aftertaste.
The second round of Group A also kicked off.
The first round of games still has the meaning of testing, but there are still two games left in the group stage. At this time, if you don't risk your life, it will really be too late.
World Cup The most exciting game has just begun.
Mexico defeated Qatar 3:0. With two wins from two games, Mexico has already locked a spot in the knockout rounds.
In the match between Uruguay and Egypt, Suarez scored the key goal and defeated Egypt National Team 1:0.
Mexico 6 points, Uruguay 4 points, Qatar 1 points, Egypt 0 points.
Salah burst into tears on the court after the game.
Salah can lead Liverpool to win the Premier League league championship for the first time, and can also help the team win the Champions League championship for two consecutive years.
However, on the World Cup stage, he was eliminated in the group stage for two consecutive years, which made this talented Egypt person feel the uncertainty of fate.
Egypt also became the first team of World Cup to be eliminated this year.
The Group B competition also had its second round.
Belgium, ranked first in the world, let the world see their strong strength. When faced with the challenge of Japan, the powerful team of Asia, Belgium defeated the opponent 2:0 very simply.
Chile and Morocco ended in a goalless draw within 90 minutes.
Belgium 6 points, Japan 3 points, Morocco 1 points, Chile 1 points.
Belgium has also locked in a qualifying spot.
At present, Group B's other three teams are all likely to stand out in the final round and take the last qualifying seat.
Finally, the time came to November 26th.
At 13:00, the first contest of Group C has already begun.
When Argentina National Team, led by Messi, faced Asia's new team Syria, they took out all their anger from the defeat in the previous game on this poor team.
Messi completed his first hat trick among World Cup.
The score of 5:0 made the Syria team, which participated in World Cup for the first time, sadly leave this World Cup.
The murderous Messi was on full fire in this game, and he was involved in all five goals.
Argentina National Team showed strong dominance and gave Syria almost no chance to enter his penalty area.
Li Mingyu, who was warming up in the arena, heard the news and was also happy for Messi.
Li Mingyu glanced at the referee wearing a black referee uniform on the field and quickly got into the warm-up process.
"My name is Clement·Turpin, from France."
"I'm a football referee."
"I am currently on the court at Umm Salal Stadium, doing pre-match preparations for the next World Cup game."
Turpin, dressed in black, is checking his equipment.
Today he is the referee of the game Spain VS Netherlands.
Turpin, who just turned 40 this year, is a famous international referee of France. He has officiated many key matches between Champions League and UEFA Europa League, and also officiated many times in the matches between World Cup and UEFA European Championship.
"These are my two linesmen, Danos and Jiuli, they are both my colleagues from France, and the fourth official is Vincic from Slovenia."
"My VAR referee team are also colleagues from France."
"The world is changing, football is changing, and of course, we referees are also different from the past."
"Modern football has added some fresh elements, the most important of which is of course the video assistant referee."
"In the past when we officiated games, the referee had to quickly forget about it after making the call, because then you had other calls to make."
"Now after making a penalty, the referee can listen to VAR's opinion."
"When there is a clear and obvious misjudgment, the referee can change the decision."
"So the emergence of VAR is very important because people have to mentally accept this new thing."
"But the most important thing is fairness."
"Because I don't want to see it reported on the news the next day that yesterday's game was ruined because of a misjudgment!"
"I have been a referee for 20 years, and calling games has become a part of my life."
"Now there is VAR, although it is not yet perfect, it is only suitable for clear and obvious mistakes and omissions in four situations."
"But when we use VAR, we need to be fair and transparent and make accurate decisions."
"Of course, we must first put the previous mistakes behind us."
Turpin came to the goal with a game ball in his hand.
He took the ball, walked past the goal line, and then looked at his watch to confirm that the goal was valid.
After checking some facilities on the court, Turpin returned to the locker room with his two assistant referees.
Turpin sat on the chair, closed his eyes and rested, waiting for the game to start.
After a while, the staff came over, knocked on the door, and told me that they were about to show up.
Turpin opened his eyes, a ray of light shot out of his eyes, stood up energetically, and left the locker room with his two assistant referees.
Three black-clad referees came to the players' tunnel.
As the famous referee of UEFA, Turpin is very familiar with many players from both sides.
However, in order to show his impartiality, Turpin walked past them with a serious face and did not say hello to anyone.
Turpin, who received the notification, turned around and said, "Gentlemen, the entrance has begun!"
Turpin walked out of the tunnel first with his two assistant referees.
The enthusiastic Qatar people and fans of the two teams from all over the world burst into fierce cheers.
Turpin walked in front with an expressionless face, ignoring the heat and noise around him.
Players from both sides came to the center of the field and lined up in a row.
The Spain National Team players began to walk past the referee and Netherlands National Team one by one, shaking hands one by one.
Turpin shook hands with every player seriously and used his body language to tell these players that I have the final say on the field today, so don't play tricks on me.
"Busquets, De Gea, Alba, Eric Garcia, Laporta, Gaya, Rodri, Pedri, Li Mingyu, Morata, Torres."
"Van Dijk, Cillessen, Ake, De Ligt, Van Aanholt, Van de Beek, De Jong, Wijnaldum, Gravenberch, Depay, Malen."
Looking at the players walking past him one by one, Turpin silently recited these people's names and finalized his jersey number.
This is the details, details determine success or failure.
Before the game, Turpin had written down all the names and numbers of the players on both sides, and had a certain understanding of some of these people's temperaments, which was of great help to him in some of his actions during today's law enforcement process.
After the handshakes were completed, the players from both sides dispersed and returned to their own half.
What follows is a pattern.
Pick an edge.
The captains of both sides came to Turpin.
In fact, both sides have already reached their own half of the area, and picking sides is just a formality.
However, Turpin shook hands with them seriously first, then took out the coins and asked, "Blue and yellow, how do you choose?"
Busquets said casually, "Blue!"
Van Dijk shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then I'll choose yellow!"
Turpin threw it casually and the coin fell to the ground with the yellow side facing up.
Turpin looked at Van Dijk and said, "You just chose yellow, you choose first!"
Van Dijk pointed behind him and said, "I choose this side!"
Turpin nodded and said, "Okay, you chose this side!"
Then Turpin turned his head, looked at Busquets and said, "You guys kick off first!"
The two captains shook hands with the referees and returned to their own half.
Turpin and his two assistant referees covered their hands respectively and said with serious faces, "Brothers, let the battle begin!"
These two assistant referees are comrades who have been officiating with him for two years and are very familiar with each other.
The two assistant referees ran to both sides and stood at the same level as the last defensive player.
Turpin took the football and came to the center circle.
There, Morata stood there alone, waiting for the game to start.
Turpin handed the football to Morata, then put the whistle into his mouth and looked at his watch.
Tick tock, tick tock...
At 16:00, Turpin blew the game whistle on time.
Toot--
With a crisp whistle, the focus battle of Group C officially began.
Turpin constantly ensures that he is in a position to see the football in action.
You know, not only the players need a lot of training every day, but also the referees need several hours of training time every day.
Although Netherlands National Team's lineup this year is no longer as bright as in the past on the front line, the midfield and backcourt are still among the top five lineups of this World Cup.
Van Dijk from Liverpool is the most trustworthy player on Netherlands National Team's defense.
De Ligt, Van de Beek, De Jong, Wijnaldum, these players are the backbone of the team.
The competition between the two sides in the midfield was very fierce.
Turpin suddenly blew the whistle and quickly ran to the scene of the incident.
There, De Jong and Rodri were entangled.
Turpin came to them and stretched out his hands to separate the two of them.
"Hey, hey, brother, don't get excited!"
Turpin comforted the two of them with proficient English.
"Come here!"
Turpin called the two of them aside. Seeing that they were still arguing, Turpin said impatiently, "Quiet, listen to me!"
Seeing that the two of them had shut up, Turpin said, "Listen, don't break the rules and stay calm. This is World Cup. You are here to play football, not to quarrel!"
De Jong said with a look of dissatisfaction, "Sir, I was dribbling the ball just now..."
Before he could finish speaking, Turpin interrupted him and said, "Okay, I understand, you guys shake hands!"
The two of them slapped each other helplessly, and a small storm passed.
"At this time, the referee needs to have absolute authority and not give the players more room to complain. Quickly resolving minor conflicts on the court is what a qualified referee must do."
Turpin saw the football coming to Li Mingyu's feet. Seeing the football that seemed to have spirituality at Li Mingyu's feet, Turpin felt a sense of pleasure.
Sometimes, the referee is the most enviable person.
Besides the players, who else is closer to the court than him.
In the fifteenth minute, while Li Mingyu was dribbling the ball, he was pushed from the side by Wijnaldum. However, the moment he fell to the ground, Li Mingyu kicked the football away with his right foot.
Turpin, who was originally going to call a foul, made an offensive move with his hands pointed forward.
"Clement, there's a foul, there's a foul!"
Turpin heard the assistant referee's prompt in his earphones. He ran forward and said, "I saw it, but I think this is a good offensive opportunity!"
