"No one would have thought that the man who was the best performer in the second half of the game would be a young man under the age of 18 from the away team, who not only revitalized Banfield's attack, but also created two chances to score......

"Beautiful! Another long-range shot from James Rodriguez! Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Oh-my-god......! Fakundo Ferreira was slow to cut forward, otherwise it would have been another great opportunity to score. ”

……

Between the 65th and 70th minutes, the most mentioned name was James Rodriguez by the commentator in the live commentary booth and the commentator in the remote broadcast room.

As the core of River Plate's new generation of midfield, Tang Zheng naturally would not let James Rodriguez perform unscrupulously at his home stadium, so he decided to give the opponent a dismissal.

In the 74th minute, Tang Zheng made a long diagonal pass to Rosales on the right side, but the power was not well controlled, and it was headed out by Brockie, a left-back from Banfield, and the football quickly passed to the feet of James Rodriguez, who was close to the left sideline.

His excellent vision made him immediately aware that an opposing player was approaching him at high speed, so he stepped on the ball with his left foot and pulled it back, while his body changed from sideways to back to the defender.

However, James Rodriguez's reaction was still half a beat slower, and Tang Zheng's down-and-down tackle took the lead to kick the ball he had just pulled back off the line.

And James Rodriguez was also brought to the ground by Tang Zheng because of inertia.

In response to the South American player's instantaneous reaction, James Rodriguez fell to the grass clutching his left leg in pain and tumbling on the ground several times.

Banfield players flocked to Tang Zheng, and the referee reacted quickly and blew the whistle, blocking himself in front of Tang Zheng and driving away irrelevant personnel.

Tang Zheng shrugged his shoulders in front of the Banfield player who was questioning, and then bent down and patted James Rodriguez on the shoulder twice: "Don't pretend, Hames." ”

James Rodriguez opened his eyes and found that it was Tang Zheng, so he didn't continue to pretend, but stood up with Tang Zheng's outstretched right hand: "The foot is still so fast and accurate." ”

"You're improving in terms of strength and acting, Hames. Tang Zheng rubbed James Rodriguez's hair angrily.

"Yo. Sciorily Telmer, a guest commentator on TYC Sports TV, seemed to have discovered a new continent and said in surprise: "Don and James Rodriguez seem to have a good relationship, but I rarely see him take the initiative to pull up the opponent's fallen player." ”

"You don't know it, Don and James Rodriguez played together in the Boca trial two years ago. Abel Claudio took full advantage of his encyclopedia of Argentine football.

"I see......"

※※※

James Rodriguez, who performed well, received special attention from Tang Zheng, and he seemed to disappear for the rest of the game.

However, River Plate's offensive quality has declined because Tang Zheng's energy has been too focused on defense.

However, a two-goal win at home to Banfield is still acceptable for Simeone, after all, there is still a Copa Libertadores game in the middle of next week, and there is no need to lose character in this game that almost sealed the win.

As the clock ticked by, James Rodriguez glanced up at the time under the scoreboard: 84'50"

His brow furrowed deeper and deeper, because he had always wanted to defeat Tang Zheng in the past.

But the reality is very cruel, and his efforts seem useless in front of Tang Zheng.

No!

He didn't want to just throw in the towel!

Didn't Tang Zheng, who was on the same running line back then, play professional football a year earlier?

James Rodriguez believes that his talent and potential will definitely surpass Tang Zheng!

Seeing that the regular time was about to run out, the fourth official was using the wireless microphone to communicate with the referee to watch the injury time add a few minutes.

At this time, some fans at the Monumental Stadium chose to leave their seats and leave the stadium early, believing that it was unlikely that a goal would be scored before the end of the game.

It wasn't long before the fourth official stood on the sidelines with an electronic card holding up the three-minute stoppage time.

Just now, Falcao received a 45-degree cross from Tang Zheng on the right and headed the goal, but he missed the goal under the interference of the opposing central defender Barraza.

Banfield goalkeeper Bologna kicked the ball away, and the football soon reached the feet of James Rodriguez on the right side of the attack, and Tang Zheng followed up to form a local two-one with full-back Ferrari.

James Rodriguez didn't have much confidence in himself past Tang Zheng and Ferrari, so he directed right wing-back Lopes forward.

It's a very common full-back to get involved in the attack, with Ferrari being very focused defensively, reacting to the moment James Rodriguez passes the ball and falling to the ground to break the ball off the touchline.

In order to distance himself from Tang Zheng, James Rodriguez and striker Ferreira switched positions and asked him to come out to receive the ball from López's sideline.

Tang Zheng did not let his guard down on James Rodriguez, standing on the left side of the arc of the penalty area, preventing opposing players from cutting in and taking care of James Rodriguez.

Lopes threw the ball from the sideline, and striker Ferreira squeezed his body first, then turned and faced the goal.

Ferrari was worried that López's forward cut did not follow in time, and full-back Bonanot was half a beat slow to get the ball forward by Ferreira.

When Ferreira received the ball again, it had reached the right corner of the penalty area, and Tang Zheng had no choice but to command Poncio to stand in front of the arc of the big penalty area, while he followed Musacchio to press Ferreira.

However, Ferreira handled the ball decisively and picked it up towards the control of James Rodriguez on the right side of the box.

Musacchio jumped up subconsciously and didn't hit the football, which leaked through.

Tang Zheng came to the line of the penalty area, and another central defender, Cabral, gave up the outside line and joined Tang Zheng to prevent James Rodriguez from cutting inside the goal.

At the same time, James Rodriguez suddenly had the inspiration to shoot at the falling football, and he glanced at the goalkeeper's position and adjusted his pace......

"Be careful, he's going to shoot!!" Tang Zheng's reminder seemed a little late.

Standing just outside the touchline on the right side of the penalty area, James Rodriguez took a step forward and picked up his left foot, his outside instep striking the ball into the middle of the ball.

The ball was fast and fast, and it flew towards the far corner of the goal with a strong outside arc.

Goalkeeper Daniel Bega was a little slower to react by half a beat, and the ball grazed his fingertips and flew into the far corner of the goal......

Tang Zheng, who was standing on the line of the big penalty area, looked at the football lying in the net, and then looked at James Rodriguez, looking helpless.

World Wave!

※※※

The whole team was helpless about this goal, and so was the head coach Simeone.

The world wave is hard to parry!

James Rodriguez was thrilled to score, he didn't expect the first goal of his career to come so suddenly and so brilliantly!

Mike Gervin, a commentator from ESPN's football channel, excitedly said: "Incredible goal! The young man from Colombia scored a goal in the third game of his career, and he set a new record and became the youngest foreign player to score in the Argentine top flight......

James Rodriguez, who was pacing back to his own half, consciously waved his fist in the direction of Tang Zheng, and the meaning he wanted to express was very obvious - I scored a goal on your turf!

Tang Zheng shrugged his shoulders helplessly, don't look over his head, out of sight.

Although Banfield relied on James Rodriguez's world wave to pull one back in stoppage time, it did not affect the final result of the game.

River Plate beat Banfield 2-1 at home to make it two league wins in a row.

After the game, much of the attention of the media was drawn to James Rodriguez, whose goal at the age of 17 years and seven months set the record for the youngest foreign player in Argentina's top flight.

Young James Rodriguez was restrained in the mixed zone, after all, it was the first goal of his career, and he was facing River Plate.

In addition, although Tang Zheng performed well in this game, he was still criticized by the media.

Newspapers such as Ole believe that Tang Zheng's defense relaxed his vigilance at the last moment, and it was only when James Rodriguez scored the world's goal.

However, Tang Zheng didn't pay attention to these media who like to tell right and wrong, anyway, he also knew that the media would only wait until the end of the season to forcibly slap his face.

Tang Zheng received a red card away from home in the first round, and he had to sit in the stands in the second round of the home game against Bolivia's Souk University.

In this game without Tang Zheng, Simeone's tactics were simply more direct.

Because the overall strength of Sooke University has a certain gap with River Plate, it finally relied on the goals of Falcao and Poncio to defeat the visiting Sooke University by two goals at home.

The second round of Group E of the Copa Libertadores has ended, and the time is also at the end of February.

The upcoming March fixtures are okay for River Plate, with four league games and two back-to-back Copa Libertadores group games.

River Plate's six games in March followed Tang Zheng into the role, and they achieved an unbeaten record of four wins and two draws, including three wins and one draw in the league, and climbed to the top of the league table with seven games, five wins and two draws, one point ahead of second-placed Sarsfield.

Back-to-back against Ecuador's Quito Sport with one win and one draw, four games, two wins, one draw and one loss, seven points and ranked second in the group.

It is worth mentioning that Simeone's latest tactics have been very successful in the team's experiments, and Tang Zheng, as the core of the tactics, is even more like a fish in water, scoring three goals and four assists in March, and his performance is extremely eye-catching.

In addition, Tang Zheng performed well, and there were many fewer voices against him.

But there are also some reporters who don't shed tears without seeing the coffin, who think that River Plate's game in March was a bit tricky except for the home game against Sarsfield, and the overall strength of other opponents is far from River Plate, and the victory is a natural result, so it does not mean anything.

Next, River Plate will enter the league break after playing promoted side Turkmenistan St. Martin at home, which means that the new international break is just around the corner.
