48. Chapter 48
In the last two minutes of the first half, relying on Lamela's through ball, Rafael broke through with lightning and fired a long-range shot directly from the left side of the penalty zone to equalize for River Plate.
It was also Rafael's eighteenth goal of the season.
The home commentator lamented: "I don't know what Rafael and Lamela said, it was really immediate, and they actually began to cooperate with each other." This is a terrible discovery. What the hell did Raphael say? I'm curious, huh...... I believe that there will be lip experts to interpret it for us after the game......
Oh! Angel shoots from distance, the ball goes in! Is he really not an alien visitor? This is his 18th goal this season, and the league Golden Boot honor is basically confirmed to be him, 18 goals in 17 league games, one goal at a time, Rafael's efficiency is terrible...... Why can River Plate produce such a terrible demon star, we should really strengthen the excavation and training of youth players......"
At halftime, the head coach of Atletico Cologne also made a cruel statement: "If you can't keep their ball, then keep people, don't be afraid of fouls, this is our home stadium!"
Although Atletico Cologne is ranked 11th this season, it is also in the middle of the lifting list, there is no hope of winning the championship, there is no need to worry about relegation, and the qualification for the Copa Libertadores next season is basically hopeless, it should have no desire, but in the face of the leader who has not lost this season, there is also a miracle star Raphael in it, sorry, we still don't believe in evil, we have to pull you off the altar. Not to mention that you are too blind, and you are still discussing where to go to eat after scoring a goal, hum!
As for the river bed, because the Lamela table is normal, Kappa has not made too many adjustments. In fact, Rafael is fast and is very suitable for counterattacking, but Lamela is not good at speed, otherwise when the time comes, Rafael and Lamela will be in the front, and Pavoni will be at the front, and a counterattack will be very efficient.
But if Lamela can't cooperate, it will drag Raphael down, so thinking about it, Capa gave up on this idea and continued to hold high the offensive flag.
A draw is not a river plate pursuit, only a win is.
At the start of the second half, the atmosphere on the field became tense, especially Rafael and Lamela, who had already entered the focus of each other's goals.
In the 53rd minute, Rafael took the ball on the side, because his teammate's pass was not very good, just a little above his abdomen, he raised his right leg, hoping to unload the ball with his big leg, he saw the opposing player rushing towards him violently, but he was confident that he could handle the ball when the opponent rushed over.
Rafael is still too naïve, as soon as he stopped the ball, the opponent had already flown up and kicked him in the abdomen, Raphael was startled, his body instinctively bent, and his upper body leaned forward, like a shrimp, although he unloaded a lot of strength, but he was still kicked to the ground by the opponent's full malicious foul.
Raphael curled up on the ground, covering his abdomen with his hands, his abdomen hurt for a while, you don't need to look at him to know, it must be a bruise, probably scratched by the spikes and bloodied, this is a little higher is the stomach, which is a more vulnerable area.
He frowned, his pretty eyes rounded with anger, and he glared at the executioner who had fallen to the ground because he was out of balance.
Laldes, who was clearly heading towards people, lay on the grass and raised his hands to show his innocence.
There was an uproar in the away stands, and the River Plate fans were agitated, erupting in loud boos and intimidation at Laldes.
Even the on-site commentary, who was very aware of the home team, was shocked, and then shouted: "Well, Laldes shouldn't have done it on purpose, he just wanted to get the ball one step ahead of the opponent." ”
The home fans don't care about this, what they do is right, the other party falls that is your fake fall, they booed Rafael, for a while, the home and away fans who were out of sync but acted in sync made the stands of the Elephant Cemetery stadium boo.
The players in River Plate all knew Rafael's character, and he would not fall down, and when he saw him fall to the ground and did not get up, they panicked.
In fact, Almeida, who had a temper and Ortega, was immediately furious, and rushed over to arrest Lardez, but Lao Tzu hasn't touched your people, you dare to attack our little beet, and deceive people too much!
After Raphael used his internal force to relieve some of the pain, he quickly got up and grabbed Almeida with one hand.
"Captain, I'm fine, don't be impulsive. But as soon as his hand left his stomach, the footprints on it were really glaring on the white jersey.
Ferrari lifted his jersey directly, and the large bruises and scarlet blood streaks on his fair skin looked shocking. Raphael himself was stunned when he saw it. He knew that the kick didn't hurt his muscles, but he didn't expect the skin to be so exaggerated.
Rafael pulled Almeida, but not the others, the River Plate players hula and surrounded Raldes, Cologne was not to be outdone, Lamela with a calm face strode forward, pushed Raldes aside, and when he wanted to make the next move, he was held down by the startled Pavoni.
Pavoni didn't expect this boy who looked clean and handsome to have such a temper.
"Captain, vice-team, I'm really fine, I just look exaggerated. Rafael also hurriedly stopped his teammates.
The referee, who was late for Shansan, blew the whistle for a foul, separated the crowd with a warning look, and then showed a yellow card to Laldes.
", maliciously hurting people, this is a red card!" River Plate fans were even more furious after watching the replay on the big screen.
"This should be a red card!" Almeida calmed down a little and appealed to the referee, "He deliberately kicked Rafael in the abdomen, he is the murderer!"
As soon as the referee came over, Laldes innocently defended himself: "It was just an accident, sir, I just wanted to grab the ball." ”
The referee wouldn't change the decision, he awarded River Plate the ball, let them disperse, and then told Rafael to go to the sidelines if he wanted to go to the hospital.
Almeida laughed angrily, since he knew that Rafael might have to seek medical treatment, and only gave the other party a yellow card. Raise so high that the shoe nails are shiny, and this kind of cliff is a red card and ran away.
Capa is also unhappy, but he is more concerned about Rafael's injury.
Rafael asked his team-mate to tee off, and he went to the sideline to be examined by the team doctor by himself, who sprayed him with painkiller mist and did a simple care, and then he went back to the field.
Seeing that he was fine, Kappa also breathed a sigh of relief.
After that, the Cologne players, who figured out the referee's penalty scale, became even more unscrupulous.
Rafael doesn't like to fight violence with violence, he likes to respond with goals, and as he said after the derby, fouls don't stop goals.
Just ten minutes later, Cologne brought down Pavoni in front of the penalty area to give River Plate a free-kick.
Lamela took the penalty, and with a handsome face, he jogged from behind to the penalty spot and fired the ball over the wall and into the top left corner of the goal.
Raphael, who was closest to him, jumped on him excitedly, "Well done! Eric!"
Lamela just showed a smile on her face and froze, hey, how can I celebrate the goal when you jump on me!
Cologne only wanted to use fouls to prevent the opposition from scoring, but failed to prevent the opponent from scoring from set-pieces caused by fouls, which was the biggest drawback of foul tactics. Even if the referee doesn't give a card, a set-piece can't be avoided.
In the 72nd minute, Rafael, who began to be active all over the field, retreated to the backfield and stealed, and gave the ball to Acevedo, who passed the ball to Lamela in the middle with a long pass, Lamela broke through with the ball, and the defending Cologne defender Quiroga kicked Lamela on the knee, and Lamela was so painful that tears almost fell.
River Plate fans are really angry, just after hurting my angel, and hurting my golden boy? If this is at River Plate's home stadium, you will all be hanged, okay!
Carroll, who was on the TV station to explain the game, was extremely angry: "Atletico Colón is not here to play football at all, but to play people, and the super derby is not as hot as they come out, and those who don't know think they are all Brazilians." ”
After all, Lamela and Rafael are both Argentina's hopeful stars, and Carroll is also angry and a little unscrupulous. Mainly because after the other party injured the angel, he looked at them quite unpleasantly, and he is now an angel's brainless fan.
There is also a condemnation on the Internet.
The score of 1:2 in this game was maintained until the end, River Plate got the precious three points, and Rafael was replaced by Murray in the 80th minute, so in the post-match press conference, Kappa took Lamela out of the game.
In the away team's locker room, Lanzini sighed while helping him rub the medicated oil: "This blue and purple is so terrible to look at, don't you really hurt." ”
"It doesn't hurt, you're so grinding, I'll wipe it myself!" Raphael has already used internal force to activate blood and dispel stasis, he really doesn't hurt anymore, but I don't know why the marks on the skin are still terrible, although it is strange, but this is good, at least it is not easy to wear.
Lanzini didn't believe it, and wanted to twist him coldly, but Raphael's abdominal muscles were tight and his skin was smooth, so he couldn't start, so he slid down and pinched Raphael's waist directly.
Raphael's waist was numb, his face was red, and he overwhelmed Lanzini with one turnover, and snorted angrily: "What do you want to do!"
Lanzini looked at him innocently: "It's just a pinch of you, why are you reacting so much!"
"Hahaha, you two, don't you want to be so basic!" Although the game was not pleasant on the field, the game was finally won, and the atmosphere in the locker room was still very cheerful, Pereira pointed at the two of them and laughed.
Ferrari dragged out his tone while changing clothes: "In the locker room, refuse to engage in the base, you pay attention!"
Almeida threw a piece of clothing to Raphael's head: "Don't make a fuss, change your clothes when the medicine is wiped off, let's wait on the bus, this is a place, there is no hot water in the dressing room." ”
Rafael and a group of people were playing here, but they didn't expect the post-match press conference to be stormy, and the next day, because of today's game, it caused a grand debate in the media.
