Chapter Forty-Nine: Tulips, Ma Kai Xianwei

“what fuck!!!“

Watching Babbel easily push the ball into the corner of the goal to help the Dutch team equalize, most of the Argentine players showed an expression of disbelief, they couldn't understand why the Dutch team could suddenly fight back after being suppressed for a long time, only Santhiago sighed regretfully, he already had a premonition that something was wrong, but due to his lack of defensive ability, he not only failed to intercept the opponent, but was teased a little......

Seriously, the Dutch counterattack this time is surprising, after being suppressed for a long time, they say that they will counterattack, and they can hit with one hit, which is not a joke, obviously has super resilience and execution, which is very different from the Dutch's consistent loose and easy infighting style!

It seems that the next game is really not easy to play! Especially the biggest breakthrough, Dutch full-back Peters is likely to be substituted.

After reluctantly accepting the reality, Saint-Tiago squinted at the Dutch in front of him and sighed.

Sure enough, the morale of the Dutch, who had been boosted after recovering the score, began to slowly find themselves, and began to gradually devour Argentina's previous advantages with their best style of play, but fortunately, the midfield composed of Riquelme, San Thiago, and Mascherano was strong enough to effectively delay the Dutchman's attack.

In the 43rd minute, after Mascherano stretched his leg in the backfield to block the shot of the Dutch player, the ball bounced to the feet of Saint-Tiago, and in the face of this sudden gift, Saintie immediately got up and prepared to turn forward, but it was a pity that Snow would not let Saint-Thiago easily take advantage of himself again, and a fierce and just right tackle made the unprepared Saintie almost fall and eat.

Seeing this, the Argentine defenders such as Monzon did not have time to care if their teammates were injured, and after catching a glimpse of the referee's intention to make a penalty, they immediately pounced on the player they were targeting. Among them, Babel, who scored the equalizer goal, naturally received special preferential treatment. Although he has been unknown since his debut as a young Argentine, as one of the overage players who replaced Demichelis, Pareja naturally has his own uniqueness.

And that's not all, as Parreja clings to Babbel and Garay is also hovering around, and no one wants to leak anything in the final moments of the first half.

However, how can the Netherlands have only one threatening figure?

Snow found out that Pug had been killed by Argentina, and his eyes flashed, and he continued to move towards Babbel as if he wanted to respond to Babbel himself. Seeing this scene, Garay didn't dare to hold it up, so he could only immediately rush up to block the passing route between the two.

"Right! Right! Damn, the Dutch are aiming on the right!! ”

As soon as Gary stood on his feet, he heard a shout from behind him, and when he looked at it, he found that Snow, who had fully attracted his own firepower, suddenly kicked the ball into the net on his right side, the entire right side of the court!

At this moment, almost all the Argentine players on the field felt their hearts stop! Because they saw the most frightening scene, the ball was passed to a place where no one was there, and the closest thing to the ball was a Dutchman! A Dutchman who has passed his prime!

"Ma Kai!! Mackay got the ball!! The Dutch team staged a classic move at this moment! When everyone thought that the ball would reach Babbel again, even Babbel himself thought so, and when he was constantly competing with Pareja, Snow actually picked the ball to the right side, and Mackay took the ball! The 33-year-old Dutch veteran has the ball! Will Zabaleta be able to stop him? ”

"Not only Zabaleta, but even Mascherano gritted his teeth and chased after Mackay, but!!!... Poured!! Zabaleta fell to the ground in embarrassment!! He was shaken down!! There was no way, and Argentine goalkeeper Ustari could only bite the bullet!! ”

Mackay, a player who can make the older generation of players feel cold, suddenly came out after dozens of minutes of silence, when he was about to form a momentum, everyone knew that goalkeeper Ustari could not stop him, and just when the Argentine fans pinned their last hope and last chance on Zabaleta, the equally experienced full-back was ruthlessly shaken down by Mackay in the rapid onslaught.

Seeing this scene, people closed their eyes in pain, only the Dutch fans were ecstatic, and that person was back!!

Sure enough, goalkeeper Ustari couldn't turn the tide, and for Mackay, how could the top European goalscorer who stepped on the clouds from the star-studded era go toe-to-toe with the determined goalkeeper?

After a lightly inspired volley, Ma Kai ran straight to the sideline with his arms outstretched, and began to celebrate, ignoring the waves behind him.

“goal!!!!!!!! 2:1!!! The Dutch came from behind in the next place! Mackay, Mackay! Roy. Mackay scored a goal to overtake the score! He's back! He's back!!!! The ecstatic and excited Dutch commentator looked at Mackay on his knees with tears in his eyes, almost incoherent.

Fans who are not Mackay loyalists simply can't understand the excitement of the 33-year-old veteran after scoring a goal in the Olympic arena, let alone the hard-won success of all this, as the most important piece of the puzzle in the Super Laco era, he scored 96 goals in four seasons with Laco, helped Deportivo La Coruna win the first La Liga trophy in history, and ended Bayern's 19-game unbeaten run in the Champions League, a record that has not been replicated to this day.

Not only that, but the top goalscorer in Europe at the time was crowned the European Golden Boot in 2002-03 with 29 goals, beating Ruud van Nistelrooy, Thierry Henry's 25 and 24 and Ronaldo's 23. After joining Bayern, he scored 31 goals in 44 games in his first season and 34 goals in 46 games the following season, helping Bayern win the Bundesliga and German Cup doubles.

However, compared to his illustrious club career, Mackay's national team career is extremely bleak, since his international debut in 96, Mackay has scored only 6 goals in 43 appearances for the Orange in 10 years, and all this is because compared with top strikers such as Bergkamp, Kluivert, and Hasselbaink, an important reason is that Mackay is not a traditional center forward, unable to play the role of a fulcrum in the front field like Kluivert and Ruud van Nistelrooy, and is better at capturing opportunities in front of goal or grasping counter-attacking opportunities. "His technique and his combination with his teammates are not perfect, but like Inzaghi, he has unrivalled shooting skills and smell. ”

And then because of age, late blooming and other reasons, Mackay is like a player in the cracks, before his Kluivert and Bergkamp are not old, the new generation of Van Nistelrooy and Van der Vaart has begun to take over, which makes Mackay almost always the "No. 5 striker" of the orange team.

So this 08 Olympics may be the best opportunity for Ma Kai to make up for his regret of missing the World Cup and be depressed in the national team.

When this belated goal finally arrived in the fourth game, all the fans who followed Mackay gave a heartfelt cheer, and a belated but precious goal was enough to make everyone remember him!

Looking at the cheering Dutchmen, looking at the boiling Dutch fans, the young men of the Argentine Olympic team on the field all looked at each other and couldn't say anything, everything was reversed like this? Three counter-attacks and two goals? Is there such a high success rate? What's the problem??
