The 6:1 victory over Belgium, which is ranked second in the world, made England's call to win the championship skyrocket again overnight.

They also completely surpassed Brazil and France and became the biggest favorites to win the championship!
But these are not important, the important thing is... Lee Polo scored 18 goals in only three rounds of the group stage, surpassing the top scorer in World Cup history - the German bomber Miroslav Klose!
It took Klose 12 years to successfully break the ball record created by Ronaldo, but it took only 11 days for Li Polo to kick them all into the honor room of history!

From June 6th to June 18th!
The media interviewed Klose who was resting in his hometown in Germany almost immediately. Facing the camera, he could only try to be a gentleman and congratulate Li Polo:

"He's just incredible!"

"In front of him, I did feel a bit frustrated. What I had achieved in 12 years was broken so easily by him..."

"But I still want to congratulate him and look forward to how far he will break this record?!"

But Lee Polo still felt his truest state of mind:
[Negative sentiment from Klose, +11!]
-
After the group stage, 16 teams went home, and 16 teams began a more brutal knockout match.

On June 6th, there was no game schedule on this day, and all teams got valuable rest.

On June 6th, the first round of the knockout round will officially start!
Only two games were arranged on the first match day, but it attracted the attention of hundreds of millions of fans.

The reason is very simple:
In these two matchups, there are favorites to win the championship, and there are superstars!
France Vs Argentina!
Uruguay Vs Portugal!
Messi, Aguero, Higuain, Di Maria, DePaul, Dybala, Mascherano...

Suarez, Cavani, Godin, Jimenez...

Griezmann, Mbappe, Pogba, Kante, Varane, Dembele...

Ronaldo, seat A, seat B, fee B, Quaresma, Pepe, Cancelo...

Especially Messi and Ronaldo, the two once peerless twins, they are eager to prove themselves again on the stage of the World Cup!
But the result broke the hearts of millions of Melo fans. The two superstars who have dominated football for the past 9 years were eliminated at the same time in the round of [-]!
Although the Pampas Eagles scored 3 goals tenaciously, they couldn't stop the young Mbappe.The new generation of French football champions did not show too much delicate footwork. He just used his speed advantage to attack Argentina's aging defense line over and over again!

Mbappe not only scored 2 goals, but also created a penalty kick. Griezmann made a steady penalty, and Paval, the right back, scored a long-range world wave. 4:3 thrillingly eliminated Argentina!

In another game, Ronaldo also played uncomfortable.

Cavani scored a goal in each half, but Ronaldo only received... a yellow card.

Uruguay 2:1 Portugal!
Messi and Ronaldo were out at the same time. Not only did the popularity of this World Cup not plummet, but it climbed to a new height!

For example... that famous Chinese milk brand, their advertisement has gained a new continuation:

"I'm Leo Messi, and I'm in a panic right now."

On that lush grass, several people were already lying down:

Messi, Ronaldo, Muller, Neuer, Lewandowski, Salah...

Each of them has dull eyes and a dull expression, looking at the sky hopelessly.

Coupled with the big beards of Messi and Salah, it looks even more embarrassing...

But they don't need to be in a hurry, after 24 hours, a few new companions will be added to this turf!
On July 7, the second match day of the top 1 kicked off.

The results of the first game were surprising.

Facing Spain, which scored the first goal in the 11th minute, the host Russia team stubbornly equalized in the 41st minute, and then after a tragic overtime, they finally successfully eliminated the Matador Legion that once dominated an era in the penalty shootout!
Now, Ramos, Pique, Diego Costa, De Gea...all lie beside Messi and Ronaldo!
-
The fall of Spain really surprised everyone, and some even thought it was a conspiracy by the host.

But this conspiracy theory did not hold water, because Russia did drag the game into a penalty shootout with sheer fighting spirit.

In the penalty shootout, the captain of the home team, Akinfeev, was even more brave. With his excellent prediction, he saved two penalty kicks from the opponent!
-
Germany, Argentina, Portugal, Spain, among the teams with the highest hopes of winning the championship, 3.5 teams have already returned home early, and the only remaining teams in the World Cup are France, Brazil, England, and Belgium.

In the following schedule, Modric still led Croatia to defeat Denmark in a penalty shootout even though he missed a penalty kick in the last minute of overtime, becoming the fourth team to enter the quarterfinals.

On the third match day, the five-star Brazil finally made its debut.

The Selecao led by Neymar did not let accidents happen. With the goals of Neymar and Firmino, they beat Mexico 2-0.

After that, Sweden without Ibrahimovic played more like a whole and eliminated Switzerland with a score of 1:0.

And on the final day, England and Belgium started their games at two stadiums at the same time.

Belgium played against Colombia, and England ushered in the challenge of the Japanese team! -
"Please advise!"

During the handshake before the match, Lee Polo and his teammates received unprecedented respect from the opposing players.

Especially when it came to Li Polo, those Japanese players only dared to glance at him, and then quickly bent down and bowed, their heads were almost lowered to the ground!

For their respect, Lee Polo not only accepted all the orders, but also said arrogantly:

"Since you respect me so much, I want you to learn something!"

"How about this, I will use 100% of my strength to finish this game!"

"You should study hard. I will only demonstrate once. How much you can learn depends on your comprehension ability!"

The opponent with the best English skills is probably their midfielder Shinji Kagawa.

Looking at Li Polo who is a good teacher in front of him, the former Manchester United player can't help but think back to the League Cup match four years ago...

Just four years ago, Shinji Kagawa, who was semi-marginalized at Manchester United, ushered in a chance to prove himself.

Van Gaal asked him to lead the team to the League Cup.

Although the opponent was only a fourth-tier team with no reputation and historical background, Kagawa, who was eager to seize every opportunity, went all out to participate in this game.

But unexpectedly, it was just an extremely ordinary fight for a header. He received interference from Lee Polo when he took off, failed to use his strength, and lost his mobility in an instant!
Lost with the injury, and his chance to continue to prove himself at Manchester United...

Since then, Kagawa can only return to his old club sadly. Although his state has recovered, it seems that he will never be able to reach the peak height of the year!
Although Lee Polo has no responsibility no matter how much he studies afterwards, deep down in Shinji Kagawa's heart, he always thinks:
If Lee Polo hadn't turned out at that time, when I left Manchester United, I would never have been so downcast!

Now that they meet again, he has a little expectation of revenge in his heart!
