Chapter 1147: Messi's Excellence

This is not the first time in the history of the Chinese team to face Argentina, the most impressive for Chinese fans is the 1984 Nehru Gold Cup, the Chinese team defeated Argentina 1:0. It is worth mentioning that except for Maradona, the rest of the players in Argentina at that time were the main team when they won the World Cup in 1986. You must know that the Chinese team did not have a professional league at that time, but it is such a Chinese team that can beat the world's top team like Argentina, which is indeed incredible.

The strange thing is that after the professional league in Chinese football, the Chinese team has played worse and worse, and it is not until the last decade, with the rise of stars such as Zhang Shujie, that the Chinese team has seen hope.

History is history after all, and the current game is the most important thing. Dybala's pass to Messi was blocked by Chen Zihua on the touchline, and Argentina got a chance to throw a throw-in.

Rodriguez threw the ball and threw it to Messi, after Messi stopped the ball on his chest, Xu Ziyi immediately pasted it, Messi turned around and pulled the ball, keeping a distance from Xu Ziyi, Xu Ziyi did not follow the defense, but was in place, three meters away from Messi.

Xu Ziyi didn't force Messi to pull the ball, he did it very smartly, what kind of person is Messi, if someone forces him, he definitely has the ability to flash out of space. ”

Messi glanced at Xu Ziyi, took two hits to the side, and suddenly got up and passed to the right, Rodriguez stopped the ball, and then knocked the ball to Correa. At this time, Correa came to the side area, Huang Yu defended, Xu Zhixin moved a little to the middle, and followed Paredes.

Correa passed the ball to Mascherano, Mascherano passed to Icardi, Yan Tao poked the ball from behind him, Icardi did not control the ball, but Yan Tao did not stab the ball at the feet of his teammates, but stabbed Dybala, Dybala stopped the ball with his left foot, and his right foot was immediately distributed to Messi.

Messi has been pulled to the left, and this is exactly the right side of the Chinese team, and Yuan Chengye is facing him. The forward position left by Messi was temporarily replaced by Dybala, and the forward position left by Dybala was temporarily replaced by Pedres.

From this change in position, it is not difficult to see that this must be an intentional act of Sampaoli. He wants to release Messi, but also to take advantage of the loophole of the right wing-back of the Chinese team, and Dybala is absolutely fine with a cameo as a striker, as evidenced by his goalscoring efficiency at Juventus.

However, An Rong also has corresponding precautions, that is, Tang Ling wants to pull the side to assist Yuan Chengye, before the game, he asked Xu Ziyi to play the back of the drag, to ensure that after Tang Ling leaves the middle, the defense will not be vacant, Xu Ziyi's fill can make up for this. And in order to ensure that there are enough defenders in the midfield and backfield, An Rong even did not hesitate to sacrifice Li Mu's attack power and let him directly participate in the defense!

This is definitely the way the two managers play in attack and defence, who can be better, and the final result of the game will be the best answer.

Yuan Chengye was a little nervous at this moment, although Tang Ling had already come over to assist him, Yuan Chengye still felt that he was a little powerless. This is the first time he has faced a player of Messi's level face-to-face since he became a professional player - in-team practice with teammates such as Zhang Shujie and Li Mu in training does not count.

Messi moved his feet and made an obvious move to move forward, Yuan Chengye thought that he was really going to start passing, and pressed forward a little recklessly, but Messi knocked the ball with his left foot and burst through Yuan Chengye's side, Yuan Chengye lost his position, and when he wanted to chase back, he saw that Messi had completely surpassed him.

Messi's passing moves are so concise, without those bells and whistles. After passing Yuan Chengye, Messi didn't have time to make adjustments, so Tang Ling leaned over. The two have played each other more than once in La Liga and know each other very well, Tang Ling guessed that Messi could not dribble the ball towards the baseline defense, and should cut to the penalty area.

Tang Ling guessed correctly, Messi really took the ball to the penalty area. If he was replaced by other players with average technical ability, Tang Ling could definitely stop him after judging the opponent's ball path. But the person in front of him is Messi, even if he judges the right way to the ball, it is difficult to stop Messi's advance.

Messi's foot frequency changes too quickly, which is what makes him different from players such as Zhang Shujie, Li Mu, and Neymar. The passing actions of the above three people are changing between virtual and real, but Messi does not have these, relying on his own foot frequency more than others, passing defenders again and again.

Fortunately, Tang Ling grasped the position in the defense this time very well, although he failed to break the ball from Messi's feet, but he stuck to Messi's side in time, and at the moment when Messi kicked the ball out, he pressed at the same time, using his physical advantage to squeeze Messi out.

Messi suddenly pulled the ball back and changed direction from behind Tang Ling, and then Yuan Chengye came up. Perhaps because of a series of interceptions in front of Tang Ling, Yuan Chengye had less defensive pressure on Messi in these few seconds, and he and Tang Ling cooperated with each other to slow down Messi's progress. And Messi, in order not to delay the team's attack, did not continue to entangle with the two and passed the ball to Padres.

He Wei said: "Messi's possession of the ball is really amazing. Yuan Chengye was given by him so much, if Tang Ling hadn't come up to help, Messi would have gone to the penalty area with the ball. ”

Xu Yang also said: "That's right. Although Tang Ling couldn't cut off the ball, he did slow down Messi's progress a lot, which also gave Yuan Chengye time to chase back the defense. Fortunately, it was Messi, just now Messi didn't make any adjustments and knocked the ball directly, and Tang Ling immediately pressed forward to grab, and it was really difficult for someone else to control the ball. ”

"There are probably 10 to 15 people who have this ability today. ”

"Well, that's right, there are four of us in the Chinese team. When he said this, Xu Yang and He Wei both laughed.

Padres handed the ball to Dybala. In the first two minutes of the game, Argentina pressed into the backfield of the Chinese team, and the three central defenders in the team all crossed the halfway line. On the face of it, Argentina is in the driver's seat. However, Sampaoli frowned slightly on the sidelines, which was obvious that the Chinese team gave up the ball and wanted to use counterattacks to promote the attack. China has played many games like this, and Sampaoli has also watched a lot of video footage of this kind of game, and if Argentina can't attack, the Chinese team will launch a counterattack in a short time.

That's why Sampaoli demanded that if the ball was lost during the attack, he must fight back on the spot and strive to cut off the Chinese team's counterattack in the midfield. Sampaoli doesn't know how successful Argentina will be in doing this, judging from the video he watched from the previous Chinese team's game, all opponents have a low success rate when intercepting the Chinese team's counterattack.
