England's sweetheart Alvin became a household name in the World Cup area through the first group match of the World Cup.
The reason for his fame is really sad. He is probably the first star who is both a player and a referee. Of course, this is not the most important thing. What people talk about most is his magical career and his... face.
In the words of the street fans randomly interviewed by reporters, that is -
"It starts with appearance, but is loyal to the skills."
"We are willing to separate him from the England team. We don't support England, we have our own team, but we can support England's sweetheart. He is so great. He should belong to female fans all over the world."
Such a legendary life experience, under the praise of the British country itself, must have a bit more mystery that makes people want to explore.
The media are no longer satisfied with just talking about Baggio. They have expanded the scope and gone through all the celebrities who meet the age requirement. As long as they are good-looking, no matter if they have blue eyes or not, they will write a well-reasoned tweet first.
The local media in England are not willing to lag behind. It’s not enough to include those who play football, they also include those from the entertainment industry. After all, England’s sweethearts are so good-looking. A face like this might be inherited from a celebrity who was born to do this kind of job?
However, due to the soil and water problems in England, people were unwilling to believe that Irving would be bald in the future, so the hype of The Sun did not cause much waves.
The American media, which had just played football against England, were unwilling to fall behind. Wouldn't they take advantage of the popularity and grab some headlines?
You have the English Rose Jude Law, and we also have Leo Leonardo!
If it wasn't for the World Cup period when the players were relatively isolated from the news, Ivan himself might have been confused. After playing a game of football, he was "recognized" as the father of a bunch of people for no reason.
Several famous stars who were nominated were so annoyed that they expressed their opinions.
Baggio: "This is a very good guy. We should pay more attention to his performance on the court rather than the media's prying into his private life."
Del Piero: "You mean I became a father at the age of 16? It's incredible! The World Cup is wonderful, please don't divert your attention to irrelevant things."
Jude Law: "Come on England, Alvin is a very good kid. It's a pity, but I still have to say that I don't have a son as old as him."
Leonardo DiCaprio: "Isn't it what all fathers hope to have such an outstanding child? Unfortunately, we don't know each other, hahahaha."
Their fans ate all the gossip about their idol. They touched their full bellies and said: Ivan is a good kid. It’s not a loss at all that their idol becomes a father!
#Although Ivan is an adult and past the age of having a godfather, does he need a godfather? There is no limit to the number of godfathers you can have!
Even the two Hollywood stars Chris and Sebastian who secretly went to watch the game were captured by the media. The media wanted to make a story, but they were embarrassed to find that the two guys were not old enough to be Ivan's father, so they were portrayed as Ivan's long-lost brothers.
“…”
#On the horror of public opinion
Everyone thought that this nonsensical incident of random recognition of fatherhood would gradually fade away, but it did not. With the arrival of the second group match day of the World Cup, the two faces that appeared in the VIP stands attracted countless attention.
Irving's assist to Gerrard in the last game was selected as the best assist of that game, and after scoring the goal, he dedicated that beautiful pass to his two family members. Today, it was his family members who appeared in the stands.
Many people have an impression of Ivan's grandmother, as she was often seen in the stands. However, this was the first time that Ivan's mother appeared. The media, which had been unable to find any information about her, obtained her high-definition frontal photo for the first time.
...is an elegant and graceful beauty.
England may be rich in bald gentlemen, but they once had plenty of classical beauties too - just look at photos of Queen Elizabeth II of England and her younger sister Margaret.
People suddenly realized that the mysterious Ivan's mother was a standard aristocratic beauty from the last century!
...The mother is good-looking, no wonder the son is also good-looking. By this calculation, the father must be not bad either.
So where's dad?
With his photo, the information that was previously impossible to find immediately became traceable, and they found Ivan's family background.
Heir to the ancient DeWitt family! The identity of his father is unknown, but his mother is currently the largest shareholder of the big brand enterprise ANGLE!
Oh shit! Not only is Xiao Tiantian awesome, he is also tall, rich and handsome, a generation of rich people!
Before the game even started, the well-informed fans were shocked!
My idol, do you have a girlfriend? We are willing to give birth to a little boy god for you! Give birth to a football field!
#Let's take a look at the sweet girl who wants to go home and inherit a billion-dollar fortune if she doesn't play football well
#So Xiao Tiantian is a referee just for love QAQ
#Let us be jealous of Lu Xiaopang who was spanked by Ivan, we also want it QAQ
Rooney, who was warming up side by side with Ivan, sneezed.
At this time, a Portuguese player who had just finished the second game the day before and defeated North Korea 7-0 secretly turned on the live broadcast.
The Portuguese players were taking a short break after just finishing the game, so he had time to watch the game on June 22.
A big win allowed Portugal to get out of the shadow of not scoring any goals. Their next opponent is Brazil. If they can win, they will be able to top the group and avoid facing England, which is basically first in the adjacent group.
The rules for the World Cup's round of 16 knockout stage are that the first place teams in each adjacent group will play against the second place teams in the group.
Group H, where England is located, is adjacent to Group G, where Brazil and Portugal are located, and England is clearly in first place in the group. If Brazil and Portugal do not want to meet England early, they must win first in the group.
England is coming with great force, and the head coaches of all teams want to avoid its edge.
The next game will also be a tough battle.
Unrequited love feels bad, but how does it feel to be in love with someone in a different place?
#I'm almost autisticQAQ
However, Ivan was not repulsive to him, which made him full of hope. The Portuguese couldn't help but comb his curly hair in front of the mirror, preparing to dress up and watch the game well.
As for the next game, he was very conflicted. He wanted to meet England, but he also didn't want to meet England.
He wanted to compete with Ivan, and if he missed this chance, he might never have another chance; but England was very strong, and no member of the Portuguese team would want to meet England in advance.
It was not until he saw the familiar faces on the live broadcast screen that Ronaldo felt relieved. As long as they did not lose the last group match, they would advance. He will then face only two situations:
If you don’t meet Ivan in the first elimination round, then try your best to advance to the semi-finals; and if you do meet him, then just do your best!
#It doesn't matter if you lose, World Cups happen all the time, but Ivan doesn't happen all the timeˋ( ° ▽、° )
#Winning would be even better, after the game he could hug Ivan and comfort him (￣)￣*))
On the court.
Players from both teams entered the field one after another. The commentator excitedly introduced England's roster, and Ivan appeared on the starting list.
This is a signal that Ivan will probably start in every game from now on.
The cheers of English fans became louder and louder, especially when the camera on the big screen stopped in front of Ivan.
Irwin was holding the South African caddy's hand. Noticing the camera's gaze, he waved in that direction, revealing a pair of sweet dimples.
"hiss--"
#Mom, it was that man, that smile, he stole my heart!
Luo Xiaoxiao, who was watching the live broadcast:嘤.
When the national anthem was being sung, the fans watching the live broadcast on TV wished the live broadcast equipment was closer so they could hear Irvin's singing.
The whole England team sang the national anthem very hard. The boys were united and those who didn't know would think that this game was a life-and-death battle.
The female fans can't wait to see the team enter the knockout stage. By then, reporters will definitely take some photos of the team's preparations. They will strongly urge the England team to sing when they have fun and relax!
In the eyes of fans, it is only a matter of time before England advances to the knockout stage, and the remaining two games are nothing to be afraid of.
The atmosphere at the scene was warm and harmonious. Rooney winked at Irving, suggesting to his friend not to forget to pass the ball to him.
Ivan was placed on the left side today. The tactical arrangements for him were much more variable compared to those for other players. Other teams have not yet been able to plan a specific tactic to defend him.
The Algerian coach looked solemn. The quickest way to deal with this all-round player is actually very simple, but it may not be very glorious. However, as long as good results can be achieved, the domestic media will understand.
The game had just started when the Algerian defender tripped Lampard and fouled, giving England a free kick in the frontcourt.
Lampard was ready to call on Ivan to take the penalty, but calling on Ivan could confuse the audience.
As Ivan passed by the Algerian defender who was marking him, he suddenly heard him lower his voice and ask, "What happened to your father? Were you born without a father? Did you grow up with women? Oh! You are such a poor little thing!"
Ivan paused and glanced at the person who was speaking, which made the other person feel cold all over.
But he didn't frown at all, and finally just pretended that the incident had never happened and continued to walk towards Lampard.
The ball was hit by Lampard on the crossbar and almost went in.
The fans at the scene stood up and sat down again, they continued to cheer for the team. The game had just begun and there was plenty of time.
Ivan said nothing and his teammates didn't notice anything unusual. They continued with their tasks in this game, waiting for opportunities on the wing and ready to pass the ball to Rooney at any time.
In the 15th minute of the first half, Ivan received a pass from Lampard, and with his right foot he was about to look for Rooney in the penalty area!
Don’t ask us why we know this, because it was like Ivan had agreed with Rooney before the game to pass the ball to him when he had the chance!
The tall central defender who was defending Rooney judged the approximate landing point of the ball in advance, and overpowered Rooney, who was a head shorter, and cleared the ball out of the baseline.
Corner for England.
Captain Gerrard took the corner kick. Alvin and Rooney stood in the crowd, forming a human wall, waiting for the referee to blow the whistle.
Amid the hustle and bustle, the defender did not give up, and his voice rang out again: "Hey, little brother, why don't you speak? I heard that your father is Italian, and you are of mixed blood? This is really a good background, and mixed races are always smarter--"
"What did you say?!" This time Rooney, who was standing not far from Ivan, heard it. He reacted even more violently than the person involved. He rolled up his sleeves and prepared to get to work. Bullying his buddy, is he tired of living? !
Before Rooney could swing his fist at the Algerian defender's face, Irwin stopped him in time.
Rooney heard his friend say: "Wayne, don't fall into his trap!"
But his action had attracted the attention of the referee, who immediately ran over and showed a yellow card to Rooney who was about to commit violence.
"Fuck!" Rooney spat on the grass and pointed at the innocent-looking Algerian defender, "Referee, this guy insulted my teammates!"
The referee told him to stay still with a stern face. In his opinion, it was normal for players to have some verbal disputes, but it was wrong to take action!
The England striker should be thankful that he didn't actually punch him, otherwise he would have received a red card instead of a yellow card.
The English players grabbed Rooney. They knew the little cannon too well and knew he could explode at any moment.
Capello was shouting at his players to calm down on the sidelines. Gerrard in the corner area didn't know what was going on, but as captain he still ran over and separated the players from the two teams who were gradually getting angry.
"What happened? We just saw Rooney punching the opposing players." Andy was worried.
"Some unpleasant things happened right after the game started... Although Rooney is relatively straightforward, he is definitely not the kind of person who would attack without reason! It must be something the opposing player said!" Richard was indignant.
The camera swept across Ivan's face. He had no expression, so the fans thought it was okay. After all, Ivan often had no expression on the court. Only those who were close to him could see the difference.
The two women in the stands looked unhappy. The younger one didn't react much, but the older one frowned, with worry in her eyes.
There is also Cristiano Ronaldo in front of the TV. As the leading striker, the Portuguese knows too well the feeling of being provoked by opposing players. Alvin must have been said something by the opposing player!
Luo Xiaoxiao, who had been paying attention to the other person, could clearly see the displeasure on the other person's face.
The fans at the scene booed, including those from England and Algeria, and it was unclear who they were booing.
When Alvin heard this, he felt a little annoyed for no reason.
If he were the referee, he might not know what exactly happened between the two players, but he found it hard to accept that his teammate received a yellow card because of him.
People who are always more rational will not tolerate any grain of sand in their eyes.
The instigator of the incident is still lurking around and closely guarding him at all times. The other party's malicious gaze is like a poisonous snake, which will make every young player unbearable.
But Ivan is different from other young players. He chose to endure it.
The referee unilaterally determined that it was their problem. It would be difficult to solve the problem by going to the referee immediately. The best solution is to complain to FIFA after the game.
The Algerian defender could feel that Ivan was ignoring him, and he was immediately delighted, because this showed that the opponent was still disturbed to some extent.
So, he found the right moment and made sure the referee could see this side. He turned his back to the referee and spoke again: "Is that your mother who just appeared on the big screen? She is really good-looking."
As he said this, he made a disgusted expression: "I don't know how you got here--"
A cold hand grabbed his neck, not using much force, but the other person's eyes were so cold as if he was looking at a dead person, which made him shut his mouth in horror.
Then he reacted quickly, pretended to be in great pain, covered his face and fell to the ground.
"Beep--" the sharp whistle startled the players on the field. They looked over in amazement and saw the Algerian defender rolling on the ground in pain, while the England No. 29 he was defending stood there without any movement, with his eyes lowered, not knowing what he was thinking.
Then, the referee made a move that shocked commentators and fans around the world and made the Algerian players ecstatic. He showed a red card to England's No. 29!
After the referee dealt the cards, he pointed to the player tunnel without any leeway and asked Ivan to leave the court immediately without any room for negotiation!
The Algerian defender lying on the ground was always paying attention to the referee. He quietly opened his fingers, saw the referee's actions, and was delighted.
He didn't know that his little action was captured by the TV broadcast!
Fans all over the world witnessed the birth of this Algerian actor!
They witnessed the young man, who was regarded as England's hope to win the championship, being wrongly punished by the referee with a red card and sent off the field unjustly!
Beckham and Capello on the sidelines stood up and walked a few steps away to argue with the referee, but it was of no avail.
Rooney ran over quickly and was about to beat someone up, but he was stopped by Ivan.
The other party's voice was a little hoarse: "Don't do anything stupid, Wayne, we can't go down with two people."
"Just let it go like this?!" Rooney shouted loudly at the people who tried to stop him, then he froze, not daring to continue getting angry, and it was obvious that he was not intentionally getting angry at the victim, "Ivan? Don't, don't cry..."
The camera captured that Ivan's forehead was wet with sweat, his expression was calm, but his eyes were bloodshot, and his usually beautiful blue eyes were now dull and lifeless, like a pool of stagnant water.
A drop of water ran across his left cheek, leaving a shallow mark, and the source of the mark was those heartbreaking eyes.
He always looks so beautiful when he cries, with a kind of breathtaking beauty, but if possible, those who love him hope to never see him cry——
The fans' hearts were gripped, and many English people in the stands were infected by the tears of the man on the big screen and burst into tears.
What is the purpose of competition? Just for victory? Wouldn't your conscience be condemned by achieving victory through such dirty means?
He is so small, he is so young, he has done nothing wrong, why do you always have the heart to hurt him?
The Portuguese man who was watching the live broadcast had a frozen expression on his face. He stared at the tears rolling down the face of his beloved and clenched the phone beside him.
He lowered his head, took a deep breath, and clicked on the contact information of the person pinned to the top of the page.
Ivan stroked the back of Rooney's neck, comforting the dazed Rooney, and without looking at his teammates, turned and left.
He walked towards the exit, the camera followed him all the time, his back remained straight. His back was always straight from beginning to end. Among the players who grew up in different families, his every move was always the most standard.
I wish to remain calm in the face of honor or disgrace, and face all hardships and blows with a smile.
No matter what happens, my spine will never bend.
He walked steadily into the player tunnel step by step. The shadow of the tunnel fell on his face, obscuring more of his expression.
However, as he walked back to the locker room, away from the public eye, would he find it difficult to control his emotions and burst into tears and collapse?
Who can give him a little comfort when he needs it most?
The commentator screamed in disbelief: "This! This red card makes no sense! Irwin just put his hand on the player's neck, he didn't use any force at all! There was no such thing as hitting anyone! But the referee was in the blind spot and was fooled by the cunning Algerian's trick!"
"He must have said something really bad! Rooney's yellow card was a sign of this! The lip reader is already translating, I believe we will get the answer soon!"
Foreign commentators thought more: "What's going on?! These teams should correct their mentality! Understand the basic principle of respecting the game before playing football! First, yesterday Brazil's Fabiano committed two handball fouls but the referee didn't blow the whistle. Then, Kaka from the same team was set up by Keita and was also sent off by the referee with a red card!"
"If there are more and more incidents like this, how can the result of the competition convince the public?"
Ivan sat in the locker room, and with the door closed, he seemed to be isolated from the noise and bustle outside.
A locker room for one person, with messy socks and towels on the floor, actually has a different kind of peace.
Ivan had calmed down a lot at this time, but if he were asked to do it again, he would not regret making such a move. Besides, he did not use any force, he just wanted to warn the other party.
The audience has eyes. Even if the referee on the field was temporarily blinded, the Algerian player will definitely be punished by FIFA after the game.
He only missed two group matches. His teammates are very strong and England's qualification is still very certain. His red card and departure did not cause any irreparable consequences for England.
As he thought about this, he didn't go out to watch the live broadcast. He just sat there, lost in thought.
After a while, he opened his storage room and wanted to change his clothes.
Then he saw his vibrating phone.
When I opened it, I was flooded with messages and missed calls from the Portuguese.
He replied briefly to the text message, but to his surprise, a video call invitation popped up from the other party.
The author has something to say: #狗头保命
