CHAPTER 1865: CHAPTER 976: DUAL-TRACK ROCKET BOOSTER LAUNCH AND RECOVERY

Chicago Stadium.

Here, tens of thousands of spectators are watching the quarterfinal match between the German Tank Team and the Baxi Team live, while millions of viewers around the globe are tuning in online. After all, football is the world’s number one sport, and the German Tank Team and the Baxi Team are two top-tier powerhouses.

Moreover, this match is a twelve-year revenge battle.

Sports channels worldwide are broadcasting it live, with online viewership reaching a new peak.

The domestic Feiyue Home streaming media platform also follows suit, with more than five million online spectators watching the revenge battle between the German Tank Team and the Baxi Team, setting unprecedented numbers for the sports channel.

This figure even surpasses the previous match between the national team and the Iran Team.

It must be said.

The revenge battle between the German Tank Team and the Baxi Team was nothing short of spectacular throughout. The German Tank Team players showcased top-notch football skills while the Baxi Team players were not to be outdone.

After tying at one-to-one, the German Tank Team scored another goal, leading two-to-one.

But soon after, just about five or six minutes later, the Baxi Team seized another opportunity and equalized with another goal, bringing the score to two-to-two.

The first half is about to end.

In the final two minutes, the Baxi Team created yet another miracle. This goal was a perfect world wave!

"The ball is in! The Baxi Team has taken the lead at three-to-two in the first half. Can they achieve their revenge after twelve years? It seems we’ll have to find out in the second half."

The commentator remarked excitedly.

The goal was indeed beautiful, and the live audience erupted in loud cheers. Other than the German Tank Team’s fans, everyone else was applauding the perfect world wave goal.

After scoring this goal, the Baxi Team players looked up to the sky, knelt down, and grabbed their jerseys, extremely excited.

They had achieved a comeback, with both teams scoring five goals in just the first half, highlighting how thrilling this World Cup revenge match is.

Even Ding Yue, Huang Youjie, and Xu Bin couldn’t help but marvel at how full of excitement the match is.

"The Baxi Team is so fierce!"

Huang Youjie couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.

"Indeed."

Ding Yue could see that the current Baxi Team had undergone a rebirth, emerging stronger and unfathomably powerful. If they succeeded in their revenge, the next challenge would be a match between the national team and the Baxi Team for a spot in the semifinals.

At this thought, Ding Yue couldn’t help but gasp.

If the national team faces such a strong and fierce Baxi Team, can they win?

That remains a question mark.

In the last two minutes, the German Tank Team tried to recover from the one-point deficit but couldn’t. After all, trying to come back in two minutes is exceptionally difficult, likely harder than the Shu Road.

Thus.

When the referee blew the whistle for halftime, the German Tank Team players only sighed regretfully.

But it’s not over yet, as only the first half ended. As long as they play well in the second half, a one-point gap isn’t much for the German Tank Team.

Halftime break, the cheerleaders came on to perform.

The players of the German Tank Team and the Baxi Team returned to their respective locker rooms, where their coaches were likely discussing second-half strategies with them.

The German Tank Team and the Baxi Team went all out in the first half, so frequent substitutions might be necessary in the second half. Otherwise, the main attacking players might face a state decline due to fatigue.

If there are no substitutions at this point, opportunities might be missed, or opportunities might be given to the opponents.

Neither coach wants this situation to happen, so they both decided to prepare for personnel changes in the second half.

The halftime show ended.

The German Tank Team and the Baxi Team took the field again.

The second half of the match began.

As the match resumed, both the German Tank Team and the Baxi Team attempted to break through the opponent’s goal, but perhaps due to increased caution, the defenses became harder to penetrate.

The German Tank Team finally found a shot opportunity, but unfortunately, it was blocked by the Baxi Team’s goalkeeper.

The second half quickly passed fifteen minutes, and neither side had significant achievements. And for the Baxi Team, having no achievements means an advantage since they were leading by one point at the end of the first half.

With this lead, the Baxi Team could confidently negotiate challenges with the German Tank Team.

However, the German Tank Team couldn’t wait any longer.

As the second half approached the twenty-minute mark, if no opportunities arose, the Baxi Team might resort to stalling. If they drag the next twenty-something minutes, wouldn’t they win the match?
