Chapter 7

The Argentine youth team is a very famous team, and the senior team also participates in the Argentine First Division, of course, it is famous not because it has won many championships, you must know that the most domestic First Division football league championships have won River Plate, followed by Boca.

The youth team is famous because the career of the football king Maradona started from the academy of this team, even if Maradona did not bring them a league championship trophy, and then transferred to Boca not long after, he himself is more proud of being a Boca person, but no one can deny that Maradona is a legend who came out of the Argentine youth team.

Raphael and his teammates finished lunch in the restaurant in the base, and his teammates rested and rested, playing games and games, he rested for half an hour and couldn't be idle, but the game was about to be too wasteful, so he found a corner to practice boxing, that is, the compulsory body forging boxing for everyone in the previous life, which happened to cooperate with the mental method to strengthen his physique faster.

The Argentine youth team arrived at the stadium by bus before 3 o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, Rafael and they were still listening to the coach's speech, but at this stage there was nothing to pay attention to, the coach would not talk too much about tactical issues, just routine encouragement, and then let them play as usual, and then take them to the court.

Manuel rubbed to Raphael's side: "Why did you go at noon, I still want to play billiards with you, but I can't find anyone for a long time." ”

"Practice. ”

"That Chinesekungfu?" Manuel had seen him practice before, and Raphael told him that he had learned it at the Chinese martial arts gym, and he believed it, "Do you really want to practice? "Manuel has a sense of crisis.

"You know you owe a beating. Raphael was speechless.

Approaching the stadium, they heard a commotion, looked up, and were surprised to find that there were fifty or sixty fans standing behind the billboards on both sides of the stadium, and most of them were women.

"Raphael, Raphael, Raphael!"

"Raphael, you're going to play today, aren't you? I'm here for you!"

"Look at me, look at me, Raphael, I've pulled all my classmates to cheer for you, look at me!"

Except for Rafael, everyone else was shocked, I Mole, they remember their home game against Estudiantes de La Plata last month, except for the coaching staff and substitutes of the two clubs, there were no spectators on the sidelines, how cold and cold it was, and they were used to it, most fans only paid attention to the first team, and there were four or five teams below them, unless they won the echelon championship, there were really not many people paying attention to them.

Manuel looked at the sidelines with a standard smile, and sure enough, there was a shout of "Lanzini", which made him very satisfied, and asked Raphael in a low voice, "What did you do?"

Rafael naturally waved his hand at the fans, and once again brought a burst of screams: "I didn't do anything, but at the end of training yesterday, I said that there is a game today, and I hope they will support." There were only a dozen people at the time, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful today. ”

Manuel was particularly jealous: "I'm also very handsome, but half a year can't compare to you for half a month." ”

"I think they're just motherhood. Niccolò pulled Ocampos over in a vicious way, in stark contrast to the two of them's height.

"Huh...... Don't bully the boys!" Raphael's voice was murderous, but there was a sincere smile on his face, and the girls crowded behind the billboard, looking at him with eyes shining.

After the players of the two teams shook hands with each other on the court, the coach Gordillo sighed to the man with a vicissitudes of life next to him: "This little guy is really impressive when he comes back from injury, and this popularity will probably be no worse than Eric in the future." ”

Eric Manuel Lamela is currently the most watched superstar in River Plate and the whole of Argentina, because of his handsome appearance and outstanding ball skills, he was valued by advertisers at the age of 12, and is now a household name in China.

"I just hope that his talent is really as you say, Jorge. The middle-aged man said.

"I'm sure you won't be disappointed, you know, even when Eric was on the team, he didn't surprise me so much, Hector, he's a genius!"

A middle-aged man is noncommittal, a genius? A real genius will not be covered in dust for fifteen years, not to mention that there are so many geniuses in the River Plate Academy!

As soon as the referee's whistle blew, the game officially began.

Argentina Juniors kicked off, the kick-off striker knocked the ball lightly to the right, crossed the ball to the right winger, they were obviously not prepared to press up in the first wave of the opening game, and then the ball was passed back to the midfield, and the midfielder organized the attack. But as soon as the winger knocked the ball back, a white shadow flashed past him, sending a gust of wind.

The midfielder of the youth team had just started slowly, and before he had time to accelerate, he saw that the football had been intercepted, but it was just a short pass of ten meters, how fast was the opponent's start?

The girls on the sidelines clasped their hands on their cheeks and cheered loudly: "Come on Raphael!"

It was Rafael who broke the ball, and in the face of the young players who were counter-attacking, he shook them off with a sudden change of direction and acceleration, and these people's movements were really ...... It's too slow!

Raphael poked the ball forward and accelerated again, like a bolt of lightning, directly from the side to the enemy's hinterland!

At this time, the kick-off was just started, although the players on both sides were in their own positions, but they were still a little loose, both sides did not expect Rafael's break to be so efficient, Ocampos and Manuel were stunned for a moment, and when they reacted and quickly ran forward to respond, they found that Rafael's speed was too fast, and they were left far behind.

The young man who did not completely enter the state finally reacted, facing the opponent's back waist who came to intercept first, Raphael who was running at high speed showed no signs of slowing down at all, and the girls on the sidelines exclaimed, for fear that the thin figure would be knocked out in the next second.

Even the midfielder was intimidated by Rafael's seemingly straight forward movements, and he slowed down to take a defensive stance, aiming for the moment to cut the ball away. As the two got closer and closer, Rafael stepped on the ball again, and the opportunity came! He struck but didn't touch the football, because the ball didn't go forward at all!

Rafael pulled his foot back, and the ball seemed to stick to his feet, and then flicked to the left, and the ball slipped past the man's right side, and he himself was like the wind

At this time, Raphael has already killed outside the forbidden area, but the forbidden area is already dense, but he doesn't want to cut inside, although the angle is not good now, but for him...... If you don't give it a try, how will you know if you can't get in!

He picked up speed again, when he caught up with the ball again, without the slightest hesitation, the right instep hit the ball hard, the football was like a frightened rabbit jumping three feet high, and then made a perfect arc, flying over the defender's head, hanging straight into the corner of the goal, the goalkeeper of the Argentine Youth team did not expect him to kick directly outside the forbidden area, and before he could react to the ball in the net!

The ball is in!

Not to mention that everyone in the Argentine youth team was stunned, even Rafael's teammates were stunned.

In less than 10 seconds of the opening game, Rafael intercepted a ball, and then after two people, the last kick of the world wave rewrote the score to 1:0, and from beginning to end, it was his chance to create a zào alone, and he made a killing opportunity alone!

Rafael kicked the ball out and knew it was going to go in, it was a striker's instinct, and he turned around and ran back, nodding his right hand to his lips as he ran and throwing it to the fans with a kiss of love. As a result, the fans looked at him blankly, there was no response, and he was a little depressed, until the referee blew a whistle and pointed to the center circle to indicate that the goal was valid, and everyone woke up like a dream.

Manuel was the first to rush over, hugging him and jumping and jumping: "Okay, Raphael, world waves! But you are so uninteresting, you don't even remind me, a person is in the limelight!"

Rafael, who was hit by the reaction of the fans, touched his nose and stopped celebrating: "I didn't expect them to pass the ball so slowly." ”

At this time-

"Ahhhh

Well, these fan girls finally reacted.

Because of Rafael's beautiful world wave, the Argentine youth team had to stand in the middle circle and wait for the kickoff again after only ten seconds, which was really frustrating.

Then they found out that they were too naïve, and if they were depressed just like that, after half the game, it would be completely heart-congested!

This is a one-sided slaughter!

The head coach of the Argentine youth team was so depressed that he almost wanted to rush onto the pitch and take down the No. 27 player, not to bully people like this! Didn't you see their defenders frightened when they saw him with the ball? The coach's heart was full of distress, and it was the first time that he felt that half time was so long.

This No. 27 is not on the same level as them at all, Gordillo should be shameless, such talents are still in the sixth echelon, your family's first-team rankings have bottomed out, hey, hurry up and take people away!

Complaining about the anger of the coach, only 40 minutes passed the game, and the score was already 5:1, three of which came from Rafael, and two from his assists.

This is not a level contest at all, everyone present can see it. Rafael alone has completely broken the youth team's backline.

Just a simple stop-and-go change of direction, these defenders couldn't stop him at all, he was too fast, he was faster, and before they could figure out which foot he would use to shoot the ball and what kind of feints he would make, the ball had disappeared from their field of vision, and the man was gone.

What's even more terrifying is the accuracy of his shots, so far, he has had a total of three shots on goal, all of which have resulted in goals! The second kick he cut inside from the side and tore open the gap, the defender was as slow as a turtle compared to his movements, he even had time to adjust his posture, and with one shot, the football grazed the goalkeeper's cheek like a cannonball and rushed into the goal, the goalkeeper couldn't do anything at all, and he didn't even have time to make a save.

The third shot was saved by Ocampos, and Rafael broke away from the defender to cut in diagonally from behind, and with a cushion shot, the ball went into the net again!

It's not just that they feel that this person is not on the same level as them, even Raphael's teammates feel that they have released a monster in their team, and they now know that the strength that Rafael showed in training is simply reserved!

When Rafael started up in an instant, even Ocampos and Lanzini, who are also famous for their speed, couldn't keep up with him, Rafael with the ball, and they would run farther and farther away without the ball!

And his intentions teammates can't fully understand at all, when Rafael wants to pass the ball, he often kicks out, he thinks that his teammates should be somewhere at the moment, look up, okay, all around the opponent, teammates are all behind, but his body reacts too fast, the ball has flown out, but his teammates have not arrived yet, the ball falls at the feet of the opponent, it is this disjointed formation that causes the formation to loosen, so that the youth team can pull back a goal.

After that, Rafael relented, slowed down a lot, and began to cooperate more with his teammates to avoid repeating his previous mistakes. But what made the young people collapse was that although this guy didn't force his way with speed, they still couldn't stop this No. 27!

Fake shots and real buckles, people and balls are divided, and crotch is passed...... The defenders are completely numb, only they can't think of it, there is nothing this guy can't do! Is this TM a highlight reel?! Although it is true that this guy's running speed has decreased, but his foot movement speed has not decreased at all, they are either confused by the feint, or they can't even find a chance to stretch their feet, and the ball is gone!

Okay, the ball just passes, right? The defenders got a hard shot, and this guy passed the ball.

With a toe up, the football flew out of the encirclement and landed accurately at the feet of Manuel, who was unmarked in the middle, Manuel did not let go of this gift, raised his foot and shot hard, and scored another goal!

Next, the Argentine youth players found themselves opening the door to a new century. Rafael's passing was just like his passes...... It's hard to guard against and it's extremely sharp...... In short, I can't prevent it!

When they think he can pass the ball, he passes the ball, when they think he can pass, he passes! Why is it so easy to be deceived? Because this guy doesn't look at people before passing!

However, his pass will always be passed to the most suitable space, so that the receiver can comfortably move on to the next move. If it weren't for the few chances that others wasted, the score might have been even worse now!

The last goal of the first half was Rafael's cross from the side, and this time the lucky Ocampos shot with one shot, 5:1!

Say, number 27, what is the purpose of your lurking on Earth?!!!!

At the end of the first half, River Plate players were smiling and the Argentine youth players were confused.

Perhaps Gordillo finally found out in his conscience that the Argentine youth players who had been substituted on the 27th shortly after the start of the second half, and who had been mentally building for fifteen minutes off the pitch, finally breathed a sigh of relief. The game ended 6-1 when Ocampos was fouled in the 72nd minute, and the referee gave an indirect free-kick to central defender Juan Lemos' header for the final goal of the game.
