Dominate the midfield

Chapter 654 Chapter 653: The Anglo-Dutch War Begins!
After four to 10 minutes of driving, the bus drove into the Green Point Stadium, and a large number of fans had gathered outside the stadium.

Impatient fans had already lined up to enter the stadium, and England fans burst into cheers when they saw the bus with the Union Jack approaching.

Those fans who were talking about the upcoming game, surrounded the bus and shouted the names of their supporting stars.

The on-site security was in full swing, forming a protective circle around the bus to keep enthusiastic fans and reporters out.Capello, in a blue suit, was the first to appear, and he waved to reporters and enthusiastic fans.

The England players filed down, and the fans kept screaming. When Wang Rui appeared, the screaming reached its peak!
Perhaps because he felt that he had nothing to say, or because tonight's game was too important to be distracted, Wang Rui waved to the reporters and fans, and then walked to the locker room with his teammates.

This makes reporters and fans regret.

A reporter from Sky TV said into the microphone: "Judging from the expressions on the faces of Capello and the players, they are not so nervous, which is a good sign.

In the pre-match press conference this morning, the two coaches fought openly and secretly, and it seemed that the English players were not affected.

We hope England can give us a great victory tonight! "

Ten minutes later, the bus of the Dutch team arrived, which was basically similar to what happened in England. Just after the bus stopped, a large number of fans and reporters surrounded them.

Robben walked out of the car with a smile on his face, and he came to the reporter very cooperatively, which made the reporter and the fans very excited.

A Dutch reporter asked loudly: "How are you feeling now? Are you confident about tonight's game?"

Robben said with a smile: "I have been longing for this game for a long time. We can beat England like we beat Brazil!"

"I am in a good mood now and I am eager to compete with England. I am very confident in tonight's game!"

A British reporter didn't want him to be so high-spirited, and asked: "How do you evaluate Wang's performance? Do you think the Dutch team can defend him tonight? Can you prevent him from scoring?"

Robben's previous good mood was gone, but he quickly adjusted his emotions and said with a smile: "Wang shocked the world in the previous five games, and also shocked me.

However, I don't think he will continue his record of scoring every game tonight, we will contain him tonight and not give him a chance to score.

There is only one winner tonight, and that winner is not England, but Holland! "

Robben's words received a lot of applause, and the Dutch reporters applauded loudly.

The British reporter sneered in his heart: Don't be too happy, after the game, it is definitely not England that will cry, but Holland!

……

During the warm-up before the game, the players on both sides looked quite relaxed, even laughing and playing, but both of them knew that this was just a sign of tightness on the inside and looseness on the outside.Those fans who have already entered the stadium are busy taking pictures of their favorite stars.

Half an hour later, players from both sides returned to the locker room to prepare for the upcoming battle.

此刻双方的首发名单已经到了媒体的手中，天空电视台解说员肯特说道：“卡佩罗的阵型依然是四三一二，守门员1号詹姆斯；四名后卫2号格伦-约翰逊、15号厄普森、18号卡拉格、3号阿什利-科尔。

四名中场4号杰拉德、8号兰帕德、13号肯丁、17号王；两名前锋10号鲁尼、21号彼得。

Compared with Uruguay in this starting list, only two positions have changed, one is a central defender and the other is a forward.

Carragher replaced Terry, who was suspended due to a red card, and Rooney, who came back from the ban, replaced Defoe. Ashley Cole, who made a mistake in the last game, still won the trust of Capello and continued to start.

Van Marwijk's formation is four two three one, which is a formation that focuses on controlling the midfield and focusing on defense.

Goalkeeper No. 1 Stekelenburg; four defenders No. 12 Blaluz, No. 3 Heitinga, No. 4 Matheson, and No. 5 captain Van Bronckhorst.

Five midfielders No. 6 Van Bommel, No. 14 De Zeuu, No. 7 Dirk, No. 10 Sneijder, No. 11 Arjen Robben.

The only striker No. 9 Van Persie.

Robben is a winger, and he will launch a powerful attack on the left side of England. Tonight's matchup between him and Kenting is definitely something to watch, both of them are famous for their speed.

The 19-year-old Kenting is the youngest player in the England team, but he used his steady defense to win the trust of the Italians. He has won the starting position in five games.

In the last game against Uruguay, after Terry was sent off with a red card, he moved back to become a central defender, but his steady performance won widespread praise from the British media.

In addition to Robben, England should also pay attention to Sneijder. The recent state of the Dutch midfielder can be described as fiery. He is the most important contributor to the victory over Brazil. There is a direct relationship. "

After introducing the starting lineup, Kent continued: "From a certain point of view, this is a competition of midfield strength. Whoever controls the midfield will win.

So Wang's performance is still important, and it can even be said that his performance will determine the outcome of England! "

At this moment, the atmosphere in the locker rooms of the two teams is serious and tense. As long as they win tonight's game, they will be able to enter the finals, compete for the coveted Hercules Cup, and achieve their supreme glory.

Invisible pressure hangs over everyone.

After announcing the starting lineup and tactical arrangements, Capello began to boost morale: "Originally, there was no need to mobilize for this game, because I know that you are eager to enter the finals.

However, I think I should say a few words. "

There was laughter in the locker room, and the laughter diluted the tense atmosphere.

The voice of the Italian suddenly increased and he said loudly: "When two strong teams meet, the winner will belong to the team with more courage and toughness, so we must be more courageous and tougher than the Dutch!
Tonight we will make this stadium bear our names forever, boys!
England need tears tonight, but they will be tears of joy!

England need a win tonight because we waited so long! "

After Capello's battle declaration, the air in the locker room became hot. Girard walked to the middle of the locker room and shouted: "We must win! England!"

So the England locker room sounded a huge shout of "Win, England!"!
At the same time, this scene was also staged in the locker room of the Dutch team. When the starting players of the two teams appeared in the player tunnel, they saw the raging battle from the eyes of the other side!

"Tick!..."

At 08:30, with the whistle of the referee, the Anglo-Dutch battle officially began!
