Chapter 153 Scored 12 Goals, Breaking the Historical Record of the Confederations Cup!

Finally, at the end of the game, Spain relied on the outstanding performance of the team to beat Uruguay 5:1 and get a good start in the Confederations Cup.

Lin Quan, who performed well in this game, scored two goals and provided an assist, was selected as the MVP player of the game after the game.

Anyone who has watched this game will feel that this evaluation is well-deserved.

His performance on both offense and defense can be said to be to the extreme.

After this important game, the South American audience was deeply impressed by this young player from Spain.

As one of the twin stars in this Confederations Cup, the supernova Neymar in the Brazilian team also ignited a fire in his heart after watching the Spanish game live.

Unwilling to be left behind, he helped the team beat Mexico 2-0 with one pass and one shot in the match against Mexico two days later.

Judging from the score of this game, Brazil seems to have won easily.

But the actual process of the game was extremely thrilling.

Neymar, who was in full form, scored a goal in just nine minutes to help the host country take an early lead.

But then Mexico launched a counterattack, and Hernandez also scored a goal in the 14th minute.

However, the ball was disallowed by the referee, and the linesman raised the flag to indicate that Hernandez was offside.

But the slow motion of the TV broadcast showed that the ball was actually a good ball.

Although a goal was disallowed, the Mexican players were not discouraged. They launched counterattacks one after another in the remainder of the first half, putting great pressure on the Brazilian defense.

In order to limit the opponent's attack, the two main defenders Thiago Silva and Alves received yellow cards one after another.

The suspense of the game remained until the 90th minute, until Neymar stood up again, assisted his teammates to score, and rewritten the score to 2:0, then the victory was completely sealed.

Although the Brazilian team won this game, judging from the scene, they were not able to completely suppress Mexico.

Compared with the game where Spain suppressed Uruguay two days ago and finally defeated its opponent 5:1, this point obviously lacked some dominance.

Moreover, Mexico's strength is far inferior to Uruguay.

Uruguay is ranked fifth in the world, while Mexico is only ranked 14th. There is almost a grade difference between the two teams.

This performance of the Brazilian team has made people worried:

Can they really win when they meet Spain, which is currently in hot form?

After the game, although Brazil won the victory, they confirmed their qualification for the group.

However, people's expectations for them to defend the Confederations Cup have been reduced. In terms of winning odds on betting websites, Spain has gradually widened the gap with Brazil.

Spain's current winning odds are 1.73, while Brazil's odds are 2.18. Gambling companies are obviously more optimistic about Spain's winning odds.

Although the outside world is not very optimistic about Brazil's defense of the title, the media still praised the performance of the Brazilian team's super star Neymar in this game.

Neymar performed very well in these two games. Not only did he score two consecutive games, but he also provided assists to his teammates to help them score goals.

And his gorgeous playing style has also won him many fans.

In the eyes of the majority of fans, South American players have always been famous for their delicate footwork, gorgeous skills and playing style.

This is completely different from European players.

Just like Neymar and Lin Quan, one of them is gorgeous and stylish, and the other is simple and practical.

Neymar has to show off his footwork and extraordinary skills in almost every game. As long as he succeeds once, he will often arouse cheers from the fans at the scene.

But you can't see too many fancy moves and techniques from Lin Quan.

The tricks he uses are very simple, which is to use the change of rhythm to complete passes and breakthroughs.

Actions like riding a bicycle are almost never seen used by him.

As for techniques such as the ox tail and the pendulum pass, you can only see him use them occasionally, and rarely use them.

These two completely different styles are destined to have completely different fan audiences.

Fans who like simplicity and practicality can't appreciate Neymar's style, thinking that the opponent's style of play is too exaggerated.

Fans who appreciate gorgeous skills may not appreciate Lin Quan's style. They will find the opponent's way of playing too boring.

Of course, there is no distinction between superior and inferior football skills. As long as they can achieve the ultimate goal, they are all good skills.

However, there is no difference in technology, but there is only one championship trophy.

If whoever can win this Confederations Cup will undoubtedly have the upper hand in the competition between the two!

…

After the match against Uruguay, Spain got 4 days of rest.

Four days later, they faced the challenge of Tahiti, the weakest opponent in the group.

Since the opponent in this game was too weak, Bosque arranged for many substitute players to play when arranging the formation.

The only players who started the last game were Martinez and David Silva.

Many of the absolute main players, including Lin Quan, were sitting on the bench.

Thanks to the team's large-scale rotation, players such as Torres and Villa all got starting opportunities.

Since Lin Quan came to the team, Toniu has not played in the starting lineup for a long time.

He began to miss the days when he started in the team and attacked the city for Spain.

T9, who was frustrated, showed the best attitude in this game.

Only 2 minutes into the game, Torres scored with his first shot, helping Spain lead 1:0.

In the 15th minute, David Silva also scored and the score became 2:0.

Ten minutes later, Torres scored twice, turning the score into 3:0.

In the 39th minute, Calabash Villa also scored his first goal of the game, and the score became 4:0.

Before the half ended, Spain already led by four goals.

And judging from the data, they also have the absolute upper hand.

In the first half of the game, Spain's ball possession rate reached 88%, and they completed a total of 19 shots, 11 of which were on target.

So far, the opponent has not even taken a shot, and the ball possession rate is only a pitiful 12%.

The ball is at their feet, and it is almost impossible for more than five seconds before it will be snatched away by Spanish players.

But we can't blame them. After all, the total population of Tahiti is only 170,000. With such a small population base, it is difficult to recruit 11 players.

Only one player in their team is a professional player, and he still plays in the low-level Oceania league.

Most of the other players are semi-professional or even amateur players who do not usually make a living by playing football.

For them, playing football is more of a hobby.

Therefore, defeating such an opponent is not difficult for the world champion, only losing is difficult!

They don't even need to lose, as long as they concede a goal on the field, it will definitely become front-page news the next day and be ridiculed by fans around the world.

Seeing their teammates killing everyone on the court, the main players sitting on the bench felt very relaxed.

"Is it too harsh?"

"Well, it's a bit. If we play like this, the score in this game may be in double figures!"

"But Torres and the others haven't played in a long time. It seems impossible to ask them to hold back and play!"

After everyone finished speaking, they all looked at Lin Quan. After this guy arrived, not to mention the center forward Torres, even Villa, who could play as a winger, almost had no chance to play.

Lin Quan looked innocent about this:

What do you see me doing?

It's because the coach likes to play without a forward and doesn't like to use a center. Can't you blame me?

Lin Quan's position is No. 9 and a half, and he is not the kind of player who plays on the front line.

It is indeed inappropriate to say that he took away the position of Torres and others.

If Spain needs a striker in the future, Torres still has a chance.

However, Morata is growing very fast and may completely replace Torres in a few years.

…

During the halftime break, Spain did not make any personnel adjustments.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. Torres, Villa and others, who still had strong fighting spirit, showed no mercy at all.

In the 49th minute, Villa scored his second goal of the game, and the total score came to 5:0.

Eight minutes later, Torres scored a hat trick, rewriting the score to 6:0.

7 minutes later, Villa also completed a hat trick, and the score became 7:0.

2 minutes later, Mata scored directly with a free kick, and the score became 8:0.

In the 69th minute, Torres scored another goal and scored four goals. At the same time, the score had reached 9:0!

"Ahem, are you really not going to remind them and ask them to pay attention to the propriety of their attacks? If we continue playing like this, I'm worried that my opponents will be psychologically affected!"

On the bench, the 'kind' Morata couldn't bear to watch anymore.

This is too tragic. There are still more than twenty minutes left in the game, and the score is already close to double figures.

Seemingly hearing their calls, Del Bosque began to make substitutions.

Lin Quan comes on, replacing Cazorla.

Iniesta comes on, replacing Mata.

Morata comes on, replacing Villa.

Del Bosque brought Lin Quan and Iniesta on to let them warm up and find their form for the next game against Nigeria.

Nigeria's strength is average, so Spain will still rotate.

However, in order to ensure the record, Lin Quan, Iniesta and others will be sent on the field.

As for Harvey and other veterans, they will sit on the bench first and make decisions based on the game situation.

After Lin Quan came on the field, he automatically assumed the responsibility of midfield commander.

Iniesta moved to Mata's position as the team's left winger.

Morata replaced Villa as the right winger.

This guy has balanced feet and no inverse feet, so his position on the court is not fixed.

He seems to be able to play center, left and right wing, which is more similar to Lin Quan.

However, his skills with his feet are not as good as Lin Quan's, and his passing vision is not as good as Lin Quan's, so he cannot play as a midfielder.

"Lin, pass it to me, pass it to me, let me get one!"

Morata saw Lin Quan holding the ball and immediately reached for the ball.

It seems that he has forgotten everything he just said on the bench!

I don’t know who said to be merciful...

Morata's movement is excellent. When he reaches for the ball, he is in a better position than Torres.

Therefore, Lin Quan did not reject his application. After passing the player who was attacking him, he sent a through ball.

This ball gives an advance. If Morata can't pass the defensive player in front of him, then he won't be able to get the ball.

What a great Morata, after seeing Lin Quan pass the ball to him, he immediately accelerated, pushed away the defender who was defending him, entered the penalty area, and then kicked the ball into the net.

Compared with him, who is nearly 190cm tall, the Tahitian player guarding him is less than 1.8 meters tall and weighs nearly ten kilograms less than him.

In addition, the opponent is not a professional player and has not done much physical confrontation training, so the physical confrontation capabilities of the two sides are not at the same level!

Morata's push felt like Haaland eating the defender alive ten years later.

But Haaland is facing defenders from the five major leagues. What are you doing?

Seeing Morata rushing toward him excitedly after scoring, Lin Quan dodged and avoided his hug.

Walking far away, with an expression like "I don't know this guy!"

The score on the field has become 10:0, but there is no look of frustration or collapse on the faces of the Tahiti Islands players.

On the contrary, you can see them actively fighting and defending with all their strength, as if they are still enjoying the game?

This is the first time the Tahiti Islands have participated in an international competition. Because New Zealand, the dominant force in Oceania, was unexpectedly eliminated by another underdog team, they succeeded in missing out and got the opportunity to participate in the Confederations Cup.

For the players from Tahiti, being able to stand on this field is already a victory.

As for winning or losing, they are naturally not arrogant enough to think that they can defeat the world hegemon, Spain.

Moreover, in the last game against Nigeria, although Tahiti lost, they scored a goal and created a breakthrough in the World Series!

With this goal, even if they are slaughtered every game in the next few games, there will be no regrets!

The Tahitian players' spirit of never giving up, as well as their positive attitude and tenacious fighting spirit, won them applause from the audience.

Even though the score has become 10:0, the audience is still watching with interest and even cheering them loudly:

"One in!"

"One in!"

Many Brazilian fans who are not too concerned about the excitement even hope that Tahiti can score a goal against Spain.

In that case, it would not only serve as a reward for their serious competition, but also humiliate the world champion.

But their conspiracy may be difficult to realize.

After Lin Quan came on the field, he organized Spain's midfield in order.

The rhythm of the game was firmly in Spain's hands, giving no chance for the opponent to counterattack.

In the 78th minute, Torres ran out of the gap and was about to reach out for a request when Lin Quan's pass was already delivered to his feet.

Torres was surprised and happy. He didn't expect that the opponent's passing skills had reached such a level.

He did not waste the wonderful pass given to him by Lin Quan. After entering the penalty area, he passed the goalkeeper and pushed into the empty goal, scoring his fifth goal of the game.

After scoring the goal, Torres immediately ran to Lin Quan and hugged him to celebrate.

"Thank you for the pass, it was really good!"

Since Lin Quan came to the team, Torres has lost his main position. It would be a lie to say that he has no resentment in his heart.

But after receiving this assist from Lin Quan, all the resentment in Torres's heart disappeared.

The opponent is indeed stronger than himself, and he helps the team even more on the court.

After losing to him, Torres was convinced!

"You were the one who ran well!"

Lin Quan didn't know what Torres was thinking deep down, but he still praised him.

Although Torres' explosive power is no longer there after his injury, his experience and consciousness are still there.

This guy Morata still has a long way to go!

In the 89th minute of the game, Lin Quan also scored his first goal of the game with a free kick, helping the team beat Tahiti Islands with a score of 12:0.

This score broke the history of the largest score in a single Confederations Cup game. The previous record was Brazil's 8:2 massacre of Saudi Arabia in 1999.

And Spain directly doubled this record!

Unless a team as weak as Tahiti Islands appears in the Fed Cup in the future, it will be almost impossible for latecomers to break this record!
