A melodious singing voice came from the speakers in the coffee shop, "It's late at night, who else would keep you awake and count your scars, why do you want to leave a light before going to sleep" This is the It's closing time, remind customers to check out and leave.
Chen Xinhua paid the bill and left the cafe. It was almost twelve o'clock, and there were no people on the street. He and Lao Deng came to the bar. Many people had to go to work tomorrow, and it was impossible to stay here all night, so there were fewer people. Many, not as chaotic as before.
Fat brother saw that he came back after a while, and said: "You two have a meal, it can't be that you have no money to pay the bill, and you were left by the shop owner to wash the dishes, and you came back so late."
"There were too many people here before, so I sat in the cafe for a while," Chen Xinhua said.
After sitting down, I found that there were a few more people I didn't know. After being introduced by the fat brother, I found out that they were friends in the pass. They came to play with him today.
He and Lao Deng began to toast Fat Brother's friends, because it was later, and this was added to support the Fat Brother. The purpose of coming to the bar tonight is not for drinking, but for the football game that is about to be broadcast on TV.
The on-site commentator of this game is Huang Daxian. Now that the TV screen is switching to his scene, he said that the closing test will start soon.
The final was held at the De Kuyp Stadium in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. The Netherlands is one of the host countries. Belgium is not capable of entering the final, but the Netherlands has. Maybe the Netherlands started with the idea that they can enter the final, and it is best to win the championship at home. It was even more perfect, but things backfired and they didn't make it to the finals.
The closing test is very short, not as grand as the opening test. The most important thing is the handover of the European Cup flag. The next host country in 2004 is Portugal. After the handover ceremony, it is time for the official competition.
The players from both sides entered the field under the leadership of the referee, and it was another ceremony of turning over the national anthem. After exchanging team emblems and guessing the side, the game officially started. The referee blew the whistle, and the game started. There was no halftime break, which perfectly explained the theory that there are no goals in the finals of the competition. Both teams played defensive-oriented tactics. Forty-five minutes, both teams had very few shots.
Lao Deng yawned and said, "Well, if it wasn't for the heavy bet, they all go back to sleep, this scene is too boring."
It's already past three o'clock in the morning, and because the competition is not exciting, we can't get excited, and everyone has no energy, even Chen Xinhua, who has had enough sleep, doesn't have enough energy, let alone a few of them are not ready.
While everyone was waiting, the second half began.
Huang Daxian explained: "If the game continues like the first half, the domestic fans will probably fall asleep."
Director Zhang said: "Probably not. There is not much time in the game. Italy may continue to defend. They have Toldo. This goalkeeper is amazing. He saved five of six penalty kicks. This result can be said to be unprecedented. To put it bluntly, there is no one behind. If Italy does not strengthen its offense, their tactical thinking may be delayed until a penalty kick is taken. The French will not say 100% lost, but it is almost 90%. France should attack one in the second half. attack."
Huang Daxian laughed and said: "I hope it will be as you wish, and it's okay to watch halftime exciting games."
The game continued amidst the chatter of the two commentators. Director Zhang made a sad guess wrong. The game did not go on in a lukewarm manner. It was Italy who made the first change. The coach Zoff replaced a striker and became a three striker. In the tenth minute, Italy took a high ball from the right, and striker Delvecchio jumped high and scored a goal with a header.
The whole stadium was boiling, Italian fans waving national flags, singing and dancing. At this time, the Italian supporters in the bar were not inferior to the people on the scene. Those who slapped the table, shouted, and whistled all rang out. How lively.
Just now everyone was depressed, but now they came back to life, as if they were on a stimulant, and Lao Deng, who was sleepy, shouted: "French team, one in, French team, one in."
The kick-off was resumed and the game continued. The lagging French team had to make adjustments, replacing a defensive player with striker Trezeguet to strengthen the offense, but it did not improve much. Italy created a lot of chances. Today's luck was not on Italy's side. It's a pity that they didn't score a goal. Although they didn't score a goal, the game scene was much more lively. With the score gap, both sides created a lot of opportunities. The game was fierce, and when the fourth referee raised the overtime card, there was not much time left in the normal game, and there were still four or five minutes of overtime.
This time, Lao Deng has already started howling, and there is no need to stop howling, "Come on, France, get one, or I will lose my money, get one and get one."
Most of these friends in Fat Brother Guan are not in the playing circle. The reason why they come here is alsoIt's because they all heard that Fat Brother played 50,000 yuan, and everyone wanted to be fresh and fun, so they played with him more or less, and they all played with a score of 1 to 1 in the finals.
?Under the influence of Lao Deng, I also thought that I could hit it. Who would be troubled by money, everyone followed suit, and Lao Deng worked hard the most.
Possibly the heavens looked at this old fellow with pity, and the 60-year-old was still tossing around with these young people like this, so he felt pity.
The normal 90-minute game time was over soon. The French team Wiltord made a breakthrough and a low-threatening shot. The ball actually slipped past the finger of the magic goalkeeper Toldo and rolled into the goal.
Butterfly, this is really Xiao He's defeat and Xiao He's failure. Italy's success and Toldo's defeat are also Toldo's. The champions won are gone.
At this moment, it wasn¡¯t the fans at the scene who were dumbfounded, but the fans watching the game all over the world were dumbfounded. Such a thing happened at such a critical moment. When the fans of the French team realized it, Lao Deng also realized it and jumped on the table. Knock over a piece of the wine bottle on the table and roll to the ground, making a tinkling sound.
Then the people in the bar screamed at once. The people who screamed were not happy for the French team's goal, but sad for losing money. They were all those who went to Italy to win.
Fat Brother re-opened two bottles of wine and handed Chen Xinhua another bottle. Needless to say, there was nothing to celebrate, everything was in the wine.
Both of them were very happy in their hearts, extremely happy, heart-wrenchingly happy.
In the 90 minutes of the official game time, it was a 1-1 draw. This is the result Chen Xinhua and Ge Pang wanted most. It doesn't matter to them whether France or Italy win the championship. Overtime doesn't matter.
After being happy, Lao Deng got off the table, cupped his fists and apologized and said, "I'm sorry, everyone, I was too excited just now."
There are three or four minutes left in the game, the game continues, the French team scored a goal and immediately became excited, Italy was different, was equalized by the last point, the champion flew away, and the whole team was stunned , Compared with before, it was like changing a team. The players of the whole team seemed to be sleepwalking. Fortunately, the referee blew the whistle at this time.
After the whistle blew, the finals of this European Cup's pinnacle showdown was over for Chen Xinhua. Although he knew the result, he didn't really decide on the result, and his heart was still tense. Now it's finally settled. , the nervous heart calmed down, and he sat on the sofa tiredly.
He invested 460,000 yuan in this game, and the odds in the Australian handicap are 1 to 4.87, which means he got 2.24 million yuan. The income from this game is too important to him. With this amount of money, you can buy a few houses in Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and you can live a very comfortable life. Not to mention living like a rich man, at least you can live a life with relatively free finances.
This kind of life is happiness for ordinary people, and it is also happiness for Chen Xinhua. This is what he wanted. He pursued it for more than ten years in his last life, but he couldn't get it. Today he has achieved it. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
