Chapter 853 – They really won the gold medal

“That African team really won? How come so many spectators are cursing?” Li Na asked softly.

“These people should have placed bets on Brazil, and Nigeria won. Now, their betting tickets are all worthless. How can they be happy?” Feng Yu explained.

“Did you also bet?” Li Na asked curiously.

“A little. If I did not place any bets, Nigeria’s payout would be several times higher.” It’s a pity that there is a limit to how much bets Feng Yu can place. If not, the returns will be higher than trading futures.

Feng Yu had also placed bets on Nigeria, winning the gold medal. In the US, many lottery companies allow people to place separate bets. Dong Xuebing had placed some bets and if he won, he would get a few hundred million USD. These lottery companies should be making a loss this time.

Feng Yu had never thought of making money from betting and had bought those tickets for fun. He had told many people that Nigeria will win the finals, and no one believed him. Even Kameda Masao, who treated Feng Yu like his god, did not believe him. The only person that trusted Feng Yu was Kirilenko.

Kirilenko had placed massive bets on Nigeria winning the tournament with the lottery companies in Europe and his friends all laughed at him.

How can an African team win the first place?

But now, many people were not that confident. Nigeria had performed much better than expected!

There were lesser spectators during the third-place match and some of them were there to jeer the Brazilian team. Although Brazil won Portugal 5-0 in that match, they were still labeled as the losers.

Before the Olympic Games started, the Brazilian team boasted that they will get the gold medal. But now, they had become a laughingstock.

……

The final match started, and Feng Yu did not go to the stadium. It was too crowded there, and the weather was too hot. Watching live telecast in the comforts of his home was better. Feng Yu had a projector at home and his house was fully air-conditioned.

“Mr. Kirilenko, have some fruits.” Li Na placed some fruits she washed on the table for Kirilenko, who had come over to watch the match with Feng Yu.

“Feng, you are so lucky to have a beautiful girl by your side.” Kirilenko laughed.

Li Na blushed and sat beside Feng Yu and fed him with oranges.

“You… Why are you not getting married? You are in your 30s already.” Feng Yu glanced at Kirilenko.

“Soon. My father had issued the final warning, and I must get married latest by next year.” Kirilenko grumbled.

“Political marriage?” Feng Yu asked. Kirilenko’s family will most likely choose someone from a similar background to him.

Kirilenko nodded. “Yes. Let’s not talk about this. The match had started. I had listened to you this time and placed heavy bets on Nigeria. If they emerge as champions, I will get a huge payout!”

Kirilenko was fine even if Nigeria loses as he had placed bets on Nigeria, reaching the top 4 and had made profits!

“Let’s watch the match.” Feng Yu replied. It’s been a while since he felt excited and nervous, and he likes this feeling.

……

“Lopez had got through the defense and scored! I knew it. Nigeria will not win. That Chinese beverage alliance will never win us. The final winner will be us, Pepsi!” Pepsi’s Deputy CEO, Cruise, clenched his fist.

The rest of Pepsi’s top management, especially the person in charge of signing spokesmen, were cheering. That goal will increase the commercial value of Lopez, and their contract with him is worth it!

But after a while, Nigeria’s Babayaro scored an equalizer. Cruise snubbed his cigar and had a bad feeling. Will the Argentina team also lose to these Africans?

Before halftime, Argentina’s Crespo scored with a header. 2-1 and Argentina got the lead again.

Cruise was relieved as Argentina is still a stronger team. Pepsi’s upcoming marketing campaign will be focusing on the Olympic Games Football team. All the scorers will be featured in their posters!

Football can be claimed as the most popular sports in the world and using football stars to endorse their products, Pepsi’s sales will inevitably increase. They will have no problem suppressing Chinese beverages and might even win Coca-Cola in some regions!

Coca-Cola had signed sprinters and basketball players. But those athletes were not as influential as these football stars. The matches they played were telecast all over the world and had high ratings!

……

“Ahh… What the hell are these N***ers doing? How can they allow the Argentinians to get the lead again?!” Kirilenko was furious.

Luckily there are only 3 of them in the house, and if Feng Yu’s bodyguards heard him, there might be trouble. After all, most of Feng Yu’s bodyguards are blacks. action

“Don’t worry. Nigeria will make a comeback. Look at their previous few matches.” Feng Yu replied slowly.

“I did not watch their previous matches. Will they get a draw?” Kirilenko was excited. Since Feng Yu said this, then it will not go wrong.

Feng Yu kept quiet and watched the match silently. Kirilenko sat beside him and took a big gulp of Vodka. Most people drink beer while watching football matches, but Kirilenko drank Vodka!

After a while, Kirilenko jumps up. “Feng! Did you see that? They scored!!! It’s a draw!”

“I saw it. Sit down. Why are you so excited?” Feng Yu was also very excited. Amokachi must also be on the promotional poster!

After a while, Argentina scored, but Nigeria equalizes within 5 minutes.

The score was 3-3 until the final minute, and Kirilenko was restless. Is this match going into extra-time again?

“Eh… that guy had gone past the defence, and he scored! We won!! Feng! We won!!!” Kirilenko roared and jumps up and down like a kid.

The match ended, and Nigeria won the gold medal!

……

Bang!

“What is wrong with that referee? How can that be not offside?! Who can this goal be counted?!” Cruise banged the table as he cursed. The rest of Pepsi’s staff dare not make a noise.

Lost. Argentina loses to that African team. Before the competition start, who would expect Nigeria to emerge the Champions? Even the Nigerians did not expect this result.

Not only Argentina lost the match. All of Pepsi’s spokesmen had lost to some African athletes whom no one had ever thought of signing them.

Pepsi had wasted their endorsement fees!

……

Feng Yu was relieved. Nigeria really won! MBL company had signed the whole Nigeria team, and the Chinese beverage alliance had won big time!
