Noah's Ark belongs to Group A. The match is the first in the morning of the first day of the qualifiers. Yao Sen also accompanied Shao Han to the stadium early.
"Go on, baby," Yaosen smiled and touched Shao Han's head, "I'll go to see you in the audience."
A game in the qualifier is divided into three small rounds. The standard for ending a round is that there is only one team left on the field or the specified time is reached. The points of each round of a team are calculated by the official calculation system in the game plus the scores of professional referees. Weighted.
Yao Sen accidentally ran into Jiang Yang in the auditorium, and he seemed to plan to spend the whole day watching the game. The strength of Group A should be relatively uneven among the eight groups. The three small rounds were quite satisfactory. Noah's Ark played relatively easily. The final result was the second place in the accumulated points of Group A.
After the game, Shao Han came directly to the audience to watch the match of Group A and Group B with Yao Sen.
Yaosen tilted his head and laughed in a low voice: "Baby, you look so handsome playing games. I feel jealous when I think that so many people around the world can see you through live broadcasts, you know?"
Jiang Yang was sitting on the other side of Yaosen, Shao Han didn't dare to speak too loudly, so he could only mutter in a low voice: "Aren't you the same..."
The game of Group A and Group B started very quickly. There is little difference in strength in this group except for individual rookie clubs. Yaosen deliberately observed the situation of the NL game. Their performance was unexpectedly very stable. Although they were not very motivated, the players cooperated very well. If they were indeed a new club, Yaosen would think they were just by their performance. An experienced team.
One of the players performed particularly well. Yaosen felt that it should be their captain Cheng Rui. When the player ID was announced at the end of the game, Yaosen’s guess was indeed correct.
Yaosen looked at the results of the game on the big screen and meditated. Although Cheng Rui's operations were good, he was barely at an upstream level at best. He couldn't explain why he had to release himself in the friendly match—unless Cheng Rui was in the qualifiers. Retained a lot of strength.
NL ranks fifth in the standings of Group B. To be honest, this ranking is very dangerous. As long as the score of Group A is slightly close to that of Group B, NL will be easily smashed.
After the total ranking of the two groups of A and B, Noah's Ark ranked fourth, and NL was lucky to be ranked eighth to qualify for the rematch. A club that has just been established for less than a year can enter the WCAD semi-finals. Regardless of the situation after NL, this result is already very surprising.
But at this time, Jiang Yang in the seat frowned and stared at Cheng Rui, his expression revealing a little suspiciousness.
It wasn't until Yao Sen asked him if he wanted to eat together, Jiang Yang looked away from Cheng Rui, stood up and followed.
"Captain," Jiang Yang hesitated, "Do you know the one named Cheng Rui?"
"It can't be regarded as acquaintance, just met once." Yaosen looked back at him, "What's the matter?"
Jiang Yang pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just think he should be pretty good."
As soon as the results of the A-group match came out in the morning, Shao Han's Weibo immediately received blockbuster fan congratulations. The photo of Shao Han at the game site was specially selected by his fan group to make a nine-square grid with the words "My little left is the most beautiful in the world", because this Weibo was praised by Yao Sen and was also praised by the marketing team. After turning around, it made a small fire on the Internet.
"Congratulations to Noah for qualifying! Xiao Zuo is so awesome and handsome today!!!"
"Brother Sen, what do you mean by your like???"
"Shao Shao's beauty is certified"
"Seng doesn’t like the Weibo posted by Noah’s official blog, nor the congratulatory blog posted by Noah’s support club. Instead, he likes the Weibo posted by Shao’s fan group that blows Shao’s beauty? Forgive me for not understanding this operation. "
"It's a solid and touching man friendship [doge]"
"Isn't you used to Morizo Hideo's affection? It's gone."
Yao Sen: "Oh, let me tell you, your fans have increased again."
Shao Han couldn't laugh or cry: "Then why do you like it?"
"I wanted to forward it. These photos are really good-looking."
If Yaosen really reposts it, Shao Han estimates that the crooked style of his comment section may never come back.
Ten minutes before the start of the game in the afternoon of the first day of the qualifiers, everyone from Titans gathered in the player lounge. Bai Yue also hung a live broadcast and their voices. Most of the teams in Group B with Titans are teams in the upper-middle strength. Discuss briefly about the game strategy.
Zhou Ziyu sat down in his seat, breathing deeply. Wang Yuxi patted him on the shoulder accidentally, and he was shocked when he was attentively relaxing.
"Don't be nervous," Wang Yuxi comforted, "maybe the qualifiers are better than our team."
Zhou Ziyu nodded. The first official game was in a top-level stadium like WCAD, and his heart was still pounding with tension.
Last night Bai Yue talked to him online, and Coach Gou also told him many things to pay attention to. Zhou Ziyu silently recalled what Yue Ge and the coach had said to him, telling himself to trust the captain and them, and treat them with a normal heart.
"It's almost time to enter," Yaosen said, "Bai Yue, go to bed, it's early morning on your side."
Bai Yue: "I will go to bed after watching your group B. I will not be at ease until I finish watching."
After the players of Group B and A entered the field, the game officially began.
Most of the teams in the qualifiers chose to keep score, and Titans' original tactics were also the same, but because of the lack of Bai Yue, the overall strength was relatively weak. If you are seeking stability, you may be a little weak in scoring. Yao Sen temporarily changed his tactics and used direct boldness to score the main points.
In the first game, Titans trailed Germany and South Korea in third place overall. In the second game, Titans surpassed the South Korean team in accumulated points, but there was still some gap with the German team. In the third game, the Titans got the top score in a single game, but the accumulated points still ranked second behind the German team with a gap of two or three points.
Throughout the game, Zhou Ziyu was sweaty on his back. In the first game, he missed some chances to help his teammates score because of some small mistakes due to nervousness. However, his performance gradually stabilized in the second two games, although he did not get a B. It's a shame to be the first in Group A, but he has at least tried his best to get as many points as possible for the team in the qualifiers.
Yaosen smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "It's a good hit, but it takes a long time to stabilize the operation, so I have to practice again."
Zhou Ziyu solemnly said: "Okay! Captain!"
Wang Yuxi touched Yaosen with his elbow and asked, "I ask you, have you retained your strength?"
Yaosen replied: "I kept 30-40%."
When the crowd returned to the players' lounge, Jiang Yang came down from the auditorium to look for them, and when he saw Zhou Ziyu, he curled his lips slightly and hummed, "It's better than I thought."
Zhou Ziyu touched his head in embarrassment.
The next thing everyone has to wait for is that the final points ranking will be obtained at the end of the B and B competition. Everyone is going to watch the B and B competition together for a while. After a concentrated game, everyone was still a little tired. Taking advantage of almost 20 minutes before the start, they discussed where to buy something to eat.
Shao Han waited for Yaosen at the entrance of the contestants. He was more thoughtful than them. He had already bought water and snacks for Yaosen, and bought other Titans shares by the way. Wang Yuxi happily leaned forward to thank Shao Han, and unceremoniously reached out to the bag, and was slapped by the coach behind him.
"Why are you so unkind, how troublesome people are, and don't give me the money!" Coach Gou turned his head to Shao Han with a look of hatred for iron and steel, and said to Shao Han, "Thank you, thank you. money?"
Shao Han waved his hand embarrassedly: "It's okay, no need to pay."
"Oh, Coach Gou," Wang Yuxi said, "The relationship between Brother Shao and Brother Sen is very good, as good as a husband and wife, you are welcome."
Although Coach Gou finds this metaphor very strange, he doesn't take it seriously: "He has a good relationship with Yaosen, is he a family with you?"
Wang Yuxi: "Why not? As the saying goes, the eldest wife is like a mother..."
Yaosen glared at Wang Yuxi, his face was full of "Shao Han's cheeks are not as thick as yours, so you can shut up, shut up", and interjected: "I'll give it to you, you eat first."
Yaosen finished speaking and took Shao Han away.
"Don't pay attention to Lao Wang, he's uncomfortable not to say anything." Yaosen smiled, "but he was right."
Shao Han: "..."
In the afternoon, there was a lot of spectators in the game of Group B and Group B. After all, there was Lincoln, the world's most popular team. For teams like Titans where most of the main team members are participating in WCAD for the first time, it is normal to retain some strength. But Lincoln is different. Their strength is well known, and they will not be taken lightly no matter how they retain others.
Therefore, the Lincoln team did not deliberately conceal it, and rushed as they should. In the end, it ranked first in Group B with a gap of nearly 30 points from the second place.
The final overall ranking was announced, and Titans advanced to the rematch with Group B third.
@Titans_森: Promoted, thank you for your support
"Congratulations! Everyone at Titans is awesome!!!"
"Mori God is so handsome today!!"
"Today's Zi Yu is also great, really played very well."
"Watching the live broadcast feels that Senshen has retained his strength."
"Give Mori God a chance to be humble [doge]"
"@Titans_锡: @Titans_yue brother is still satisfied?"
"@Titans_悦 replied to @Titans_锡: satisfied and satisfied, not losing my face"
"@NA_Left: Congratulations"
"Capture Brother Shao!!!"
"Hurry up and let the Sengge support club send out the Jiugongge, Shao likes [doge]"
"I'm a member of the support club. There are too many pictures. The girls in the group are choosing."
Seeing this reply, Shao Han couldn't help but smile. Seeing the baby smiling happily, Yaosen glanced over, curled his mouth slightly, turned his head and printed a bite on Shao Han's lips, and smiled: "I am right here, what pictures do I look at?"
Shao Han blushed slightly and coughed: "Tomorrow morning's Group C game..."
"Are you going to see the scene?"
"I prefer to see the scene." Shao Han replied, "How about you?"
"Of course I will go if you go to see the scene." Yaosen paused and narrowed his eyes, "but don't let me find you staring at Shen You, baby."
Shao Han: "..."
