Shortly after the match began, Roque Júnior committed a foul while intercepting Neuville in the midfield and was shown a yellow card by Italian referee Collina, which was also the first yellow card of the entire match.
This immediately sent the game into a white-hot stage, with both sides going back and forth, remaining deadlocked without any goals until the second half.
In the 67th minute, Ronaldo, who had charged forward at high speed, scored on a rebound!
Brazil 1-0 Germany.
The Brazilian fans in the stadium instantly erupted, the yellow ocean completely filling the Yokohama International Stadium, countless fans waving Brazilian flags and shouting loudly.
In contrast, the German fans looked as uncomfortable as if they had swallowed a fly.
Shen Yuxuan, beside Lin Hao, jumped up in excitement, grabbing Lin Hao's hand and shouting.
"Brazil scored, it's 1:0!"
Shen Yuxuan was incredibly excited, holding onto Lin Hao and almost making him dizzy.
"Alright, I know, can you let go of my hand now?"
Hearing Lin Hao's words, Shen Yuxuan realized she was holding onto Lin Hao, her ears instantly turning red, and she quickly released his hand.
"Lin Shao, it's already 1:0, if Brazil scores one more goal, you'll win," Yang Qian'er was also extremely happy.
"It's too early to be happy, the match isn't over yet."
Lin Hao's words brought everyone back to their senses, and they looked back at the field.
Falling behind, Germany began to frequently take long shots, going all out to threaten Brazil's goal.
Several times they almost scored, making everyone's hearts nearly leap out, but fortunately, they didn't score in the end.
In the 79th minute, Brazil broke through on the right wing, advanced, and crossed the ball horizontally near the penalty area.
Ronaldo controlled the ball and shot with his right foot, the ball going under Germany's goalkeeper Kahn's armpit and into the net!
Brazil 2-0 Germany.
Ronaldo scored twice.
This time the entire box erupted.
Shen Yuxuan was so happy she almost grabbed Lin Hao's hand again, but realizing it was inappropriate, she put her hand down.
Now it was Lin Hao's turn; he pulled her into a full embrace, catching Shen Yuxuan completely by surprise.
Lin Hao held Shen Yuxuan for a good while before stopping.
"I was too excited, I couldn't help it," Lin Hao said apologetically, looking at the blushing Shen Yuxuan.
Shen Yuxuan lowered her head and nodded slightly.
"Next, as long as Germany doesn't score again, Mr. Lin, you will win a big prize of one hundred million us dollars."
Inoue Izumi looked at Lin Hao in surprise; time was running out, making Lin Hao's chances of winning extremely high.
Regular time quickly ended, with the score fixed at 2:0.
Just as everyone was cheering, Lin Hao poured cold water on them.
"The match isn't over yet."
"Isn't time up?"
"There's still injury time."
A bunch of football novices knew nothing.
Lin Hao explained it to them, and only then did everyone realize.
During stoppage time, Ziege took a shot, and everyone's throats tightened.
Lin Hao was almost startled, but fortunately, Marcos caught the ball.
The match ended.
Thanks to Ronaldo's two goals, Brazil defeated Germany 2-0 to win the 2002 South Korea World Cup.
Brazil officially won their 5th championship, and Five-Star Brazil was officially born.
Ronaldo won the Golden Boot award.
On the field, the Brazilian fans were completely ecstatic.
This moment belonged to them.
No, this moment belonged to Lin Hao.
Lin Hao was truly excited this time.
First, he pulled Shen Yuxuan, who hadn't quite recovered, and spun her around several times.
Finally, he even kissed her red lips, only separating after a long time, their lips parting with a lingering connection.
After letting go of Shen Yuxuan, he hugged Yang Qian'er and Inoue Izumi.
There was no kissing, but judging by their eyes, they seemed to be looking forward to it.
Finally, he hugged Zhang Dabiao.
"Young Master, congratulations."
"Haha, thank you," Lin Hao laughed heartily.
Everyone came up to congratulate Lin Hao, including the people from the betting company.
He really hadn't expected Lin Hao to actually win, but it was only one hundred million, their company wouldn't default, and they had earned much more.
Shen Yuxuan's blushing face hadn't recovered.
Looking at Lin Hao, who was surrounded by people, she touched her lips, feeling a bit shy and angry.
This was her first kiss, and at the same time, she felt a bit shy inside.
The first time she saw Lin Hao, a feeling different from others arose in her heart, a feeling she had never experienced before.
When Lin Hao kissed her just now, her heart was pounding non-stop, and she didn't resist at all, instead, she felt a little anticipation.
"Tonight, everyone, let's have fun at the Hilton Hotel," Lin Hao said happily to everyone.
While Lin Hao and the others were cheering, the award ceremony began on the field.
If this was Brazil's celebration, then for Germany, it was a moment of immense sadness; everyone had a mournful look on their faces, and some even cried.
"Mr. Lin, your prize money, including that of the others, has all been credited to your accounts.
Congratulations again," the person from the betting company came over and said.
"Thank you."
After confirming the funds had arrived, Lin Hao, escorted by Zhang Dabiao and others, returned directly to the hotel.
If they didn't leave now, they would definitely be stuck in traffic later, and there might even be disturbances.
Inside the car, Lin Hao and Shen Yuxuan sat in the back row, Inoue Izumi sat in the front row, and Zhang Dabiao was driving, while the others took different cars.
Having calmed down, Lin Hao looked at Shen Yuxuan.
The previous embrace was intentional, but kissing her just now was out of genuine excitement, not intentional.
Anyone who thought they were about to receive 2.2 billion us dollars would be incredibly excited and temporarily forget to consider her feelings.
Like Dong Mengxue, Lin Hao felt a sense of familiarity when he saw Shen Yuxuan, as if they had known each other before and were very close.
When he was excited just now, he subconsciously kissed her.
The atmosphere inside the car was a bit quiet.
Shen Yuxuan kept her head down, not knowing what she was thinking.
Outside the car, it was extremely lively; Brazilian fans were already celebrating, and the entire city was in a frenzy.
They returned to the hotel safely.
During this time, Lin Hao received many text messages and even phone calls on his cell phone.
Lin Hao didn't answer any of the calls, which were mostly from consulting companies in Europe; they were just congratulating him, but Lin Hao wasn't in the mood to listen to them.
The text messages were about funds being credited, but they were all small amounts, tens of millions of us dollars, which were from those who bought less.
Lin Hao had bought through more than a dozen companies, with amounts ranging from over ten million us dollars to a few million us dollars, and he had made purchases in many different countries.
By the time he reached the hotel, Lin Hao had already received several hundred million us dollars, which showed how efficient they were.
"Uncle Biao, security needs to be strengthened tonight, thank you for your hard work.
We'll go to South Korea early tomorrow morning."
Inside the hotel room, Lin Hao said to Zhang Dabiao as soon as he sat down.
Although he wasn't too worried, it was better to leave early.
