Chapter Seventy-Three: A Fierce Offensive
"Attack! We need to attack! Damn it, what are you doing! Are you sleepwalking!? โ
Morel is indeed the captain of the Paraguayan national team, and he roared with unhesitant anger when he looked at his teammates who were depressed compared to the uplifting Hurricanes players, but he did not have a high reputation in the team and it was difficult for him to make an immediate positive change in the team.
In the following period of time, Boca Juniors' offense seemed very chaotic, and the young players certainly wanted to make a final decision, but the single attack began to be weak in front of the Hurricanes team, compared to the Hurricanes, the Hurricanes performed the offense again and again, if it wasn't for the lack of time left for the Hurricanes' offensive players to handle the ball to a certain extent, I'm afraid the Boca goal has already broken again.
The momentum of the Estadio ร llover rose higher and higher, and in the eyes of neutral fans and commentators, the seemingly impregnable walls of Boca Juniors were already crumbling and collapsing.
Saint-Tiago, on the other hand, was also sweating profusely, and his chances of getting the ball gradually increased after Monzon's appearance, but what bothered him was that the impression of strength he had left on his teammates in his daily training had long since been left out of the sky by his teammates as the situation repeatedly. At this time, once he got the ball, no one except Monzon was willing to pass it to San Tiago, which made him unable to sort out the game normally and mobilize the team!
Every time he found a good opportunity to pass out, the ball was like a stone sinking into the sea, and some of the passes that should be passed back to himself did not even make a sound, seeing this situation, Santhiago gritted his teeth and crossed his heart, leaned towards Monzon and asked him to take the initiative to press and cooperate with his own attack.
Hearing this, Monzon was really taken aback, originally coach Batista sent him on the field to provide a strong wing attack ability, and it is understandable to cooperate with Saint to press, this is what he is good at! But the reality is that no matter what tactics you have, you have to give in to the situation. At present, the Hurricanes are pressing step by step, and the pressure on the defense line is very huge, and it is very good for the Boca defense line to be able to block the opponent's attack.
After all, until the last minute, until the time when it was actually equalized, their side was still ahead, and it was still acceptable for Boca to end the game with a one-goal advantage and win three points.
Besides, once the failure is broken, the monstrous criticism and abuse are likely to go straight to Meng Song, and he can't help but need to think about it.
Seeing Meng Song's hesitation, although the real relationship was not very familiar, San Tiago still reprimanded in a low voice mercilessly, in his opinion, how stupid such a fluke psychology is! This is simply covering your ears and stealing the bell!
Competing at the Olympics has made Santhiago clearly aware of the quality of this talented Boca full-back, who is enough to be among the best clubs in Europe, and if Monzon's age is also included, then Monzon is indeed a promising talent. However, it is worth mentioning that there is one thing that limits Monzon's development, and that is the lack of decisiveness and the determination to give it a go.
Perhaps motivated by his introverted personality, Monzon is very calm, but a little too calm, Santiango believes that if he is replaced by Zabaleta at this time, then he will definitely agree without hesitation, and even without Santhiago saying it, Zabaleta will take the initiative to press.
"Fabian, I need your help! Boca Juniors needs your help! We can't just see the scoreline equaliser and try to attack, that's not our style, we're world champions!! โ
Saint Tiago roared in a low voice for a while, and then looked directly at Monzon and said seriously, at this moment, only Monzon can help him, St. Tiago is not a player who can complete a thousand miles of solo riding, he is better at sitting in the middle tent, now that he is going to fight, then at least the helper must bring enough! Saintie already had a mature idea in his heart, as long as Monzon cooperated, then he would definitely be able to deal a fatal blow to the Hurricanes.
World Champion ...... Hearing this title, Meng Song first subconsciously smiled, what kind of world champion is the Olympic gold medal, in the eyes of many celebrities, this is just a child's play. But when he looked up and saw Saint-Tiago's serious eyes, Monzon was stunned, and then his eyes gradually became firm, at this moment he understood the meaning in Saint-Tiago's eyes, even if the football bigwigs do not fancy this Olympic medal, but in the eyes of Saint-Tiago, this is the world champion, the world champion they fought with a sword, in U23, they are the strongest people in the world!
Everything was in silence, and the passion in his heart was ignited at this moment, and Monzon suddenly laughed, and ran back to his place, without saying a word, but Saint-Tiago also laughed, and he knew that the next time was to implement his heart's ideas.
In the 83rd minute, the Hurricanes attacked, and after completing a break on the wing, they hoisted the ball directly into the penalty area, and the young midfielder Toranzo, who was on loan from River Plate to the Hurricanes, suddenly came out and rushed towards the ball. Fortunately, Morel was always on the lookout for possible surprises, and he rushed forward at the first opportunity, using his strong body to crush Toranzo under him, and defuse this extremely threatening attack of the enemy.
With a sigh of relief, Santhiago soon got the opportunity he wanted, and Monzon, who received the goalball, launched a quick attack on the wing, the powerful full-back caught the opponent off guard, and after suddenly passing the opposing player, he almost drove straight to the edge of the Hurricane box! Seeing this situation Hurricanes coach Eduardo. Rodrygo was shocked, the coach who had previously coached the Los Angeles Galaxy team looked ugly when he saw that his side had just picked up and was attacked like this, and immediately beckoned his disciples to turn back to defend.
Actually, there is no need for Eduardo. Rodrygo spoke, and the Hurricanes players immediately returned to their own half when they saw that the situation was not good, and the two of them pounced on Monzon while also clinging to the rest of the Boca players.
However, at this time, Monzon passed the ball directly to Santiago on the sideline before he faced the bag, and the two had completed the cross-position exchange in the forward run, and when they saw this scene, the Hurricanes defenders looked at each other and immediately surrounded Santhiago.
Santiago on the touchline is in a bad position, this is a great opportunity for them, and the players know that as long as they complete the tackle here, then for the next counterattack, it can be said that it is already twice the result with half the effort!
"San Tiago is defending against three Hurricanes guards! Will he be able to pass? This is undoubtedly a battle of trapped beasts! โ
"Santiago! Santiago! The Boca Juniors fans in the stadium suddenly burst into a loud voice at this moment, they shouted the name of Santo Thiago in unison, they expected that Santiago, who had just won the Olympic gold medal and brought surprise to Argentina, would bring hope to Boca Juniors at this moment!
"Oh? The Boca Juniors fans chanted the name of Santo Thiago in unison, and it seems that the player who was not loved in Milan has regained the confidence of the Boca fans with his performances!! Can he be that key figure? He moved! Seeing the Boca fans around him make such a move, the commentator smacked his mouth and said.
At this time, looking at the bottom line, slowly dribbling the ball and the three of them were in a stalemate, San Tiago suddenly moved!
In the face of Willian and Pastore's interception, Saint-Tiago pulled the ball to the right, and then he rushed to the right.
"Is this going to break through from the right?" The agitated commentator yelled out of faux puff.
Willian and Pastore didn't even make eye contact, the tacit understanding accumulated in two seasons made them make a decision, Willian in front of him had no impulse, and Pastore, who was known as the Mexican iron gate on one side, moved, and he made the best response in a short period of time with excellent card awareness.
I saw him turn sideways and push against Santo Tiago with his shoulder, and then he stretched out a foot to hook the football at Santiago's feet, and William in front also reacted at the moment when Pastore turned sideways, he leaned his body sideways in front of Santiago to block his forward route, and at the same time leaned towards Pastore's side as much as possible, trying to block the referee's sight with his back, obviously with only one purpose, that is, he would rather foul than let Santiago pass!
Under the attack of the two, Santhiago had almost no position to break through, with Pastore on the right, William in front, and the left side was already on the baseline.
"There's no more of a chance! Santiago is in a desperate situation! No one can break out of their entrapment! The commentator in the stands made an evaluation after seeing the cooperation of William and the two, and at this time, Toranzo, who was chasing back, had also arrived from behind!
