Chapter 593: Semi-Final Against Japan
After the match against Senegal, Lu Wenbin unexpectedly gained double the experience in a single game compared to the group stage.
In the group stage, 100,000 assists, 200,000 goals, and 400,000 wins were given. In the quarter-finals, the system gave 200,000 assists, 400,000 goals, and 800,000 wins, which are twice as much as in the group stage. .
Through the inquiry system, I learned that the task rewards and experience of the Olympic group stage and the knockout stage are different.
As a result, Lu Wenbin won 1 assist 20 + 3 goals 1.2 million + winning 800,000 after this game, a total of 2.2 million experience rewards.
Lu Wenbin's previous level experience was 19.353 million/20 million for level 19. Adding the 2.2 million for this game, Lu Wenbin's experience reached 21.553 million, which exceeded the level-up experience.
Therefore, Lu Wenbin, who hadn't upgraded for a long time, finally upgraded again this time, the level reached level 20, and the experience became 1.553 million/50 million.
After the upgrade, Lu Wenbin received an upgrade reward of 10 skill points. If you upgrade to level 21 next time, the reward will be 20 skill points.
However, the next upgrade requires 50 million experience points, which is simply far away.
Lu Wenbin naturally added these 10 skill points to position selection, changing his position selection attribute from 12 points to 14 points.
This is already a good selection attribute.
Cooperating with Lu Wenbin's full frontal defensive ability, Lu Wenbin will gradually become an iron gate in the middle of the Chinese team that is difficult for opponents to cross.
...
The match between the Chinese Olympic team and Senegal is the second quarter-final match, and the opponent of the winner is the opponent of the first quarter-final match, that is, the winner of Japan VS Egypt.
In that game that has ended, the Japanese team beat Egypt 3-0.
The opponent of the Chinese Olympic team in the semi-finals is the Japanese Olympic team.
This opponent is simply too easy.
The Asian team, or the U23 Olympic team, as long as Lu Wenbin is there, they are basically guaranteed to win.
When the Chinese team defeated Senegal and became the opponent of the Japanese team, the Japanese media lamented that the men's football Olympic journey of the Japanese Olympic team came to an end.
He definitely won't be able to make it to the finals, and at most he can only fight for the third place.
And when the other two quarter-finals were over, the Japanese media said that even the third place was hard to win.
Because the top four teams determined in the other two quarter-finals are the host England and the favorite Brazil to win the championship.
No matter who they are facing, the Japanese team will lose more than win. The biggest possibility is to lose the semi-finals, then lose three or four finals, and finally take the fourth place and go home.
China, Japan, England, and Brazil entered the semi-finals of the men's soccer team at the London Olympics.
The venue of China VS Japan is at Old Trafford Stadium, home of Manchester United, and the venue of England VS Brazil is at Wembley Stadium.
The final venue is also Wembley Stadium.
The winner of China VS Japan will suffer a little loss on the playing field and run back and forth.
But there is no way around it. The English have designed their schedule long ago, and the game progressed according to their game process. England finally succeeded in putting its semi-finals at Wembley Stadium.
If they win the semi-finals, they will be able to avoid the hardships of traveling in China or Japan in the final.
The Olympic games are already tight in time, and it is always beneficial to save a trip to and from Manchester City.
However, against Brazil, even if England is at Wembley Stadium, I am afraid that it will be more or less bad. It just depends on whether they can stage a big explosion amidst the cheers and cheers of the home fans.
On August 5, the Chinese team flew to Manchester City to prepare for the semi-final with the Japanese team.
When he got off the plane in Manchester City, Lu Wenbin was warmly welcomed by countless local fans.
This summer, when Lu Wenbin did not renew his contract with Real Madrid, nor made it clear that he wanted to stay in Real Madrid, the two Manchester City teams showed great enthusiasm for Lu Wenbin.
Especially Manchester City, which was acquired by the Abu Dhabi consortium, has no shortage of funds, and does not have a Champions League champion to rank among the giants. The desire for Lu Wenbin is extremely huge.
Not only the club chairman, manager, etc., but also the CEO of the Abu Dhabi consortium, members of the Abu Dhabi royal family, and Al Fahim have expressed their hope that Lu Wenbin will join Manchester City. As long as Lu Wenbin nods, the transfer fee, annual salary, bonus, etc. Everything is no problem.
The club's official actions will naturally affect the emotions of the fans. Manchester City fans naturally hope that Lu Wenbin, the world's number one superstar who has maintained the record of winning the championship as long as he participates, will join Manchester City, win the Champions League for them, let them rank among the giants, and prevent their rivals from the same city Manchester United specialize in the front.
Therefore, most of the fans who greeted Lu Wenbin at the airport were Manchester City fans.
However, in the stands at Old Trafford, it was Manchester United fans who made up the majority. After all, Old Trafford is Manchester United's home court, and Manchester United fans are close to the water and get the most tickets.
No matter which side has more fans, they are all here to cheer for Lu Wenbin.
Including Chinese fans and overseas Chinese, the Old Trafford Stadium can accommodate more than 70,000 people, at least more than 50,000 people are cheering for Lu Wenbin and the Chinese team.
Besides the neutral fans, there are only more than 10,000 fans cheering for the Japanese team. The Chinese team is already fighting in a home atmosphere.
At 19:45 on the evening of August 7th, the China VS Japan London Olympic Men's Football semi-final officially began at Manchester United's home stadium, Old Trafford.
Originally stronger than the Japanese team, and with the enthusiastic support of the fans, the Chinese Olympic team performed even better.
In the 3rd minute of the game, before Lu Wenbin showed his power, left midfielder Cao Yunding made a threat first.
He broke through two Japanese players on the left and cut inside, shot from the corner of the penalty area, and the ball hit the post and flew out of the bottom line, almost scoring a goal.
Subsequently, the Olympic team completely controlled the game under the leadership of Lu Wenbin.
With Lu Wenbin helping to defend, the Olympic team is as stable as Mount Tai. The Japanese team can hardly even hit the penalty area.
When attacking, Lu Wenbin can not only pass the ball to assist, but also personally break through to create a murderous opportunity. The Japanese team is simply impossible to defend against.
In the 14th minute, Lu Wenbin broke through two players in the middle and reached near the arc top of the penalty area, causing high tension among all Japanese defense players.
The three Japanese defense players near the penalty area rushed towards Lu Wenbin, but relaxed their defense against the wide players.
Lu Wenbin passed the ball from side to side before the opponent's encirclement, and accurately found the full-back Baal.
Baal dribbled the ball down and cut inside the penalty area. The two central defenders who were defending Lu Wenbin just now had to retreat to the small penalty area to block Baal.
But Baal passed the ball in an inverted triangle, and found Lu Wenbin who ran without the ball and got rid of the opponent's defense.
Lu Wenbin did not stop the ball and shot a low shot, sending the football accurately into the far goal.
Lu Wenbin opened the scoring first, and the Chinese team led Japan 1-0.
