In this match against Atletico Cologne, River Plate didn't play very hard, but it didn't go well either.

Rafael, who started for the second time, was very active and scurrying around the field, but today he was partnered with Lamela, the little donkey Ortega accidentally strained his big leg in training a few days ago, but fortunately, it was only a slight strain and it was not strict, and he still caught up with the final round of the league.

Raphael and Lamela are not very well coordinated. Generally speaking, Rafael's current position in River Plate is shadow striker, hidden behind the main center such as Mori and Pavoni, but when he cooperates with Ortega, this is not fixed, in fact, he is more inclined to free man, he often changes positions with Ortega, and often changes formations, and the experienced little donkey knows his thoughts when he moves and where he goes, and will cooperate with him.

But Lamela and him lack this tacit understanding, Lamela is in the midfield, if Rafael also goes to midfield, the two of them will overlap, which makes Rafael have a lot less options to run. And Lamela is not happy either, he will glare at him: "I will pass the ball to you and go back to your place." ”

Raphael has a good heart, obviously I am in a better position, but you like to pass to Pavoni, it's just vexatious.

Lamela was creepy by Raphael's accusatory gaze from time to time, and he played unsatisfactory with a little worry.

Because of the lack of calls from Lamela and Rafael, the River Plate attack was hampered, and the home fans were very happy and did not hesitate to give them bursts of applause.

Home commentator gloating: "Since the Angels became famous, how to limit his play has become a big headache for the managers of various clubs, and now, what the defenders have not done, Lamela has done, and he has done very successfully in limiting the Angels' play. ”

It's good that the stadium is noisy, if Lamela hears such a bad sentence, it is estimated that he will have to find a commentator desperately.

Capa is talking to his assistant about this: "Is Eric not on good terms with Rafael? How can he ignore Rafael when handling the ball several times?" "Cappa is also quite optimistic about Lamela's potential, after all, before Rafael, Lamela was the focus of attention in Argentina, so he didn't understand Lamela's handling of the ball several times.

After all, he is a head coach, and Capa generally only focuses on the problems on the field, and the private relationship of the players, he does not care, but the premise is ...... It does not affect the performance on the field.

Lamela and Raphael's relationship is so bad? Obviously, in training, they can both talk.

In fact, Rafael is cheerful and lively to everyone, he loves to laugh, he trains hard, and the team bosses Ortega and Almeida regard him as a younger brother (son?), among his peers, Lanzini and him are close friends, Maury, Pereira, etc. often go to dinner with him, even if it is Caruso and others who have a position conflict with him, even if they don't like him, they won't hate him.

Seriously, Capa himself has been angry recently because of Raphael's repeated teachings, but when he saw Raphael smiling at him embarrassedly, he lost his temper at all.

As his own life, Carpa was greatly surprised by Lamela's disregard for Raphael.

He remembered that he might have overlooked the most important thing in a young man: competitiveness.

Raphael and Lamela don't call, either dismantle or practice, dismantle ...... Soon Ortega is leaving, Bonanott will not stay long, he still has to rely on the newcomer, Lanzini is not as good as Lamela...... Well, it seems that when you train in the future, you will have to let them go in a group.

Capa didn't think about replacing Raphael at all, oh, what are you kidding, everyone knows that Raphael will definitely be the heart of River Plate in the future, replace Raphael?

At half-time he needs to adjust his tactics, and by the way, he needs to beat Lamela well, Kappa thought.

The goal came first and foremost from Cologne.

Because of Lamela's little awkwardness, the Cologne players can see that once he gets the ball, he will either break through himself, or pass it to other teammates, and only when forced to do so, will pass to Rafael, which undoubtedly makes their defense much easier.

Rafael tragically found that his special training for fouls in the past few days was in vain, because once Lamela got the ball, there was no one to defend him! In vain, he thought that Lamela was using the art of war, first pretending to lure the enemy and then kill him by surprise or something...... Sure enough, he is making up for it in his brain!

Rafael was angry, but he couldn't run to grab his teammate's ball, and he didn't know what the hell Lamela was up to!

In short, when Lamela broke through the weakness and hastily passed the ball diagonally to the covered defender Pavoni, Cologne, who grabbed the ball, played a wave of counterattacks, and when the forbidden area was scuffled, Cologne midfielder Fabianesi poked the ball with his toe and stabbed the ball into the River Plate gate.

In the 35th minute of the game, River Plate trailed by one goal away.

River Plate fans were also angry and let out a massive boo, but it was drowned out with cheers by the ecstatic Atletico Cologne fans.

"What are you doing? Raphael doesn't feel like he's in shape today?"

"Please, the scene is obviously in our favor, it's Rafael who can't get the ball. HE RAISED HIS HAND TO ASK FOR THE BALL, AND COCO DIDN'T PASS IT TO HIM AT ALL!"

"Oh my God, are they not on good terms? That's bad news. ”

"The last time I trained in public, I felt that COCO was very cold to Rafael, so it turned out that it was really not my delusion. Speaking of which, in the previous game, the Angels seemed to cooperate more with Ariel. ”

"If we lose this game, we're going to have to fight La Plata in the next game, it's terrible. ”

"Ah, Raphael went to COCO, the two of them won't have to quarrel, right?"

"Oh my God, don't!"

Capa was also trying to talk to Lamela when he found out that he couldn't wait for half-time to end, and if they were a few goals behind River Plate before then, it would be a fart.

But when he saw Rafael running towards Lamela, he was also shocked, if the conflict between the two became public, it would be an absolutely catastrophic blow to River Plate's plan to win the championship. Because the media will stir up all the parties involved.

But in full view, what did Raphael do when he found Lamela?

Lamela himself was frustrated by the goal he conceded, he knew it was all his fault, he wanted to show that he was no worse than Rafael, but it was clear that what he was doing was holding the team back.

When he saw Raphael coming to him with a stiff face, he was a little weak-hearted, but then he rebelled, he thought, I'm older than you, you little brat, it's not your turn to accuse me.

He stood arrogantly straight and watched Raphael run over, in short, the momentum could not be lost.

However, Raphael's first words were: "Eric, on your day off, I'll treat you to a barbecue." ”

Lamela froze, what kind of rhythm was this.

Raphael's tense face instantly turned into the smile of a little angel, which can sweeten people.

His eyes lit up slightly: "Do you have a favorite shop? What do you think of Chilo? Cabana Villegas is also very good......" Seeing Raphael standing in front of him, counting the advantages and disadvantages of each shop with him, Lamela seemed to be back on the bus in a trance, speechless for a moment about the discussion between Raphael and Lanzini.

After shaking for two seconds, Lamela interrupted him rudely: "What are you doing, now on the court, we are still one goal behind!"

Rafael looked him in the eye, as the big brothers on the team always like to do to him, and patted Lamela on the shoulder, "I know, so don't blame yourself, we still have a chance." ”

Lamela was stunned for a moment, although he really wanted to give the other party a blank look, who blamed himself, but ...... Could it be that the other party came here to comfort him? deliberately using barbecue to distract him or something...... Just don't make him sad about conceding this goal?

Who cares about the comfort of your little brat, he should push him away, and turn away......

Although Lamela felt that he thought so and wanted to do it, he actually just snorted and pouted: "The one I want to go to most is DonCarlos in Boca, do you dare to invite me to go?"

“…… If you're not afraid of finding out and being killed...... I...... I can lay down my life to accompany a gentleman. Raphael said Ay...... Boca District, the base camp of Boca Juniors, alas, I can't see that Eric has such ideas!

"Actually, it's best to barbecue meat at home, but I'm not good at it, so I won't be ugly. Raphael remembered that he had almost zero culinary talent, and he regretted it.

Captain Almeida, who hurried over, for fear that the two would quarrel, listened to the whole conversation, his expression was very subtle, and finally he flicked a steel hammer on Rafael's head with a smile: "Raphael, you are also worried about food on the court, you have this little luck!"

Raphael clutched his head and wailed: "Captain, you have learned badly from the vice-team." ”

Almeida sneered and pushed him: "Hurry up and get back to your place, I see that you two are acting as if we are 4:0." If you lose this game, I will report to the coach and supervise you to eat at the base for three meals a day!"

Raphael's body trembled: "Captain, you are so ruthless!"

But when he ran away, Raphael didn't forget to turn around and wave to Lamela: "Eric, it's decided." ”

The players of Atletico Cologne looked at them like a strange look, especially the people who were close and were forced to listen to their conversation, they were very unhappy, what are you doing, please look up at the big screen and see who is behind now, okay? We are celebrating a goal, you are discussing eating! Nima's, I will let you eat a basket of duck eggs and go home!

The Cologne players were in high spirits, while the fans in the stands were puzzled.

At first, the home team fans gloated and wished that Rafael and Lamela would fight, and it was best to be sent off with red cards, but I didn't expect the two of them to chat happily?!

River Plate fans are happy and strange, I really don't know what's going on between the two, but it doesn't matter, the atmosphere is very harmonious, they can see this.

Since the angels are not affected, they will surely win.

After that, Lamela gradually regained his usual level on the court, and no longer deliberately did not pass the ball to Rafael, and River Plate's attack began to regain its vitality.

Raphael is very proud, hahaha, he knows that there is nothing that cannot be solved by one roast, if there is, then two!

Raphael, who consciously succeeded in bribing, thought happily that if Lamela knew that he meant this, she would probably want to strangle him directly with her hands.
