Chapter 0159 - Doing What You Say!
Bonanotte galloped around the Molumbi Stadium with his arms outstretched, and the home fans in the stands chose to close their eyes because they no longer had any desire to boo. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Now 1-2 down at home, the aggregate score has become 4-2, and the home team has conceded two goals, which means that if you want to overtake River Plate to advance to the semi-finals of the Copa Libertadores, you will have to score three goals in a row in the remaining game time.
It may not be difficult to score three goals, but the problem is that you have to make sure that you don't concede any more goals when you score three goals in a row.
Although Falcao missed the second leg due to injury, Tang Zheng and Bonanott are in good shape, and it is obviously unlikely that they will not concede goals at home, and even head coach Ramalho stood on the sidelines with his hands on his waist and looked helpless.
River Plate coach Simeone was excited to return to his career, embracing the likes of Jorge Gortilo and Sergi......
The goal that overtook the score was scored by Bonanot, but it is undeniable that Tang Zheng played an absolute role in the goal.
If he makes a mistake in any part of the break, the break, the pass, then the goal is not possible.
And it is very likely that Sao Paulo, who is playing at home, will score a goal to exceed the score, so one out and one in is equivalent to scoring two goals.
River Plate fans who followed the team to the Molumbi Stadium roared hysterically, cheered and waved their arms in celebration of the game-winning goal.
Bonanot, who scored the goal, did not forget Tang Zheng, who sent a delicate pass, he turned around and hugged Tang Zheng with his arms outstretched, and said loudly: "This ball is really cool!"
"Where, where, it's your good run. β
Tang Zheng smiled and rubbed Bonanotte's long hair vigorously.
"Come on, you guys, you have all the goals and assists, you don't need my help. β
AndrΓ©s Rios said with some depression.
"Yes, yes, if it weren't for your erratic movement that attracted the attention of the opposition's defence, it would have been difficult for me to find a passing opportunity. β
Tang Zheng appropriately gave Andres Rios a top hat.
"That's pretty much it. β
ββ¦β¦β
Bonanott's goal was significant, as he propelled the invincible River Plate to the heights of promotion.
"Diego Bonanotte's lob is imaginative, but Don's previous series of defendings and breakthroughs have been crucial, especially when he can pass such a penetrating through ball when his center of gravity is unstable, it is really not easy, and at this time, I have to say that his progress is too fast......"
The live director replayed the whole process of scoring in slow motion, and the commentator Abel Claudio gave his own commentary.
"yes, it seems that his words at the beginning of the season really have a good chance of coming true!"
The guest commentator, Shorili Termer, suddenly thought of the words of Tang Zheng, who returned to Ezeiza Airport after the defeat of Mineiro, and he said sonorously.
"He's a treasure of River Plate!...... just " Abel Claudio's voice grew quieter and quieter, until he could only hear himself...... I don't know how long Riverplate will keep him. β
At the same time, Bueno, the commentator of Globo Globo in Brazil, was quite depressed, saying: "Although the game has only been played for less than 30 minutes in the first half, I can be responsible for saying that the game is over, and it is River Plate from Argentina who have advanced to the semi-finals of this season's Copa Libertadores!"
"It seems that it is only a matter of time before River Plate advances to the semi-finals of this season's Copa Libertadores......"
He Wei in the BJ live broadcast room turned his head and smiled at the guest Gong Lei.
"If Sao Paulo want to qualify for the semi-finals of the Copa Libertadores, they will have to score three goals in a row in the remaining game time, but against the in-form Diego Jr. and Tang Zheng, it can be said that there is no chance. Gong Lei smiled at He Wei's words.

Less than half an hour later, Sao Paulo had conceded two goals at home and were almost certain they were powerless.
Simple math, the home team knows how to do the math, and they know they will have to score three goals in just over an hour to progress to the last four.
Separately, it's the equivalent of scoring a goal every twenty minutes, which feels very relaxed.
But in reality, they knew that it was an impossible task, so the morale of the Sao Paulo players dropped quickly, and even the head coach Ramalho had the idea of giving up.
When the game resumed, Sao Paulo no longer had the domineering spirit that they used to do to participate in the attack, and their current attitude of playing is not to seek merit but to seek no fault.
This continued until the end of the first half.
For them, it was fortunate that River Plate's counter-attack was not as sharp as before, otherwise it would have been enough to declare them dead at half-time.
In the second half, Ramalho made drastic adjustments to the lineup, but Simeone also made adjustments, and it was a targeted deployment, Tang Zheng also returned to the position of the back to strengthen the team's defense, after all, now that the score is leading on the field, there is no need to take any more risks.
So even if Sao Paulo stepped up the offensive, there was still no way to knock on the door of River Plate, but Rosales, who came on as a substitute before the end of the game, received a long pass of more than 50 meters from Tang Zheng and shook it past goalkeeper Cheney to score an empty goal.
In the end, River Plate defeated Sao Paulo 3-1 away to eliminate the opponent with an aggregate score of 5-2 and advance to the semi-finals of this season's Copa Libertadores.
Their opponents will be between Caracas and Gremio, and if nothing else, the opponents should be Gremio from the Brazilian Primera.
After all, the strength is here, and Caracas from Venezuela cannot be compared with Gremio from the Brazilian league in terms of lineup and competitiveness.
When the whistle sounded for the whole game, all the players on the River Plate field rushed to Tang Zheng.
Because they all know that if it weren't for Tang Zheng's outstanding performance, River Plate's road to promotion would not be as easy as it is now.
And the on-site director also locked the camera on Tang Zheng at this time, which is the best treatment for the audience.
He scored one goal, provided two assists, made eight positive tackles, cleared four times in the box and ran 13,000 kilometres.
The numbers speak for themselves, so they deserve it.
Therefore, at the regular press conference after the game, the tactical opposition to Simeone with Tang Zheng as the core was close to none, and only a few media believed that River Plate still had a long way to go if they wanted to win the Copa Libertadores.
Simeone laughed at this, because arguing with the media is a very boring thing, and time will tell.
However, Tang Zheng, who followed Simeone to the scene, did not let go of the reporter, he deliberately found the middle-aged reporter of the "Globe", and said arrogantly: "I said that if I want to win the away game beautifully, I will definitely win beautifully, and I will do what I say!"
The face of the reporter of "Globo" was blue, he really wanted to use his fists to teach this Chinese what politeness is, but reason told him that he couldn't do it, because he couldn't win against a well-trained professional player because of his bloated body, and some Argentine media said that Tang Zheng had practiced magical Chinese kung fu......

The River Plate players who returned to Buenos Aires were welcomed by the local fans, even if some of them were not River Plate fans, but that did not prevent them from representing Argentina in beating the Brazilian side in the national league, which is better than the Brazilian league at the national league level.
There are four teams from the Brazilian Liga in the quarterfinals, and now it's not time for River Plate to fight their way out?
River Plate's semi-final opponents were announced in the evening, with Gremio drawing 0-0 with Venezuelan side Caracas to advance to the semi-finals on away goals.
The other two teams that advanced to the semi-finals were Cruzeiro and Uruguay National Club.
The two semi-finals between River Plate and Gremio will be played on June 25 and July 2, with the winner taking the lead in the final.
Prior to that, River Plate also had a league game away to Gorre Cruz.
However, the league is no longer important to River Plate, they have won the league early, and the rest of the league can be left for the young players to adapt to the atmosphere of the top flight.
Lamela from the youth team was promoted to the first team by manager Simeone, followed by absolute mainstays from the development team, Jonas and Gustavo Fernandez.
Reaching the semi-finals of the Copa Libertadores is of great significance to Simeone himself.
The same is true for River Plate, who have not reached the semi-finals for a long time......
The Argentine journalists, who were still skeptical at the beginning of the season whether River Plate could win the Copa Libertadores, slowly abandoned Boca and chose to side with River Plate.
Once a son of heaven and a courtier.
However, the unconvinced Brazilian media are still unconvinced that River Plate can go one step further in the encirclement of the Brazilian Liga, believing that Gremio is in better form than Sao Paulo and will have a good chance of beating River Plate in the semi-finals, and there is a good chance of a home and away double.
Gremio has conceded only three goals in ten games from the start of the group stage to the current semi-finals, and is the team with the best defensive performance in this year's Copa Libertadores.
It's no secret that offense wins fans, defense wins titles, and with the recent excellent form of post-90s teenager Douglas Costa, it is concluded that Gremio have a good chance of beating River Plate.
However, neither Simeone nor Tang Zheng had any intention of fighting a war of words with the Brazilian media, and they quietly prepared for the first leg of the semi-final at home to Gremio.
At the same time, in order to allow the main players to get enough rest time, Simeone's main players such as Tang Zheng, Domingo and fullback Ferrari, who have played more games recently, have stayed at the training base to recover their physical fitness and put their better competitive condition in the Copa Libertadores.
Compared to Gremio, who is also distracted by the Brazilian league, River Plate has a sense of leisure, so the local Argentine media have absolute reason to believe that River Plate will beat Gremio at home to advance to the final.
River Plate, led by some of their main players, continued their unbeaten league run with a 1-1 draw away to Gol Icruz.
Afterwards, team doctor Cavalieri brought good news for Simeone, with Falcao, who had picked up an injury on the international break, fully recovered and could be counted in the preparations for the home game against Gremio.
At the same time, the wound at Tang Zheng's eyebrow bone recovered well, but for the sake of insurance, he still needed to be tied with gauze......
