Of course, taking the team for the time being does not mean that Batista's position as coach is secure, but he certainly has his own advantages, namely his high prestige after the Olympics and the young team members of the national Olympic team, and he is also a former World Cup winner.

However, if Grondona had opted for Batista, he could have negotiated the contract within five minutes, but the president of the Football Association did not do so. Because San Lorenzo coach Russo and River Plate coach Simeone will both be free agents at the end of the year, although they are under contract at the moment, which also gives Grondona more options, and to some extent, it also gives Battista a spur.

The heat of the national team manager change has dominated the front pages of the mainstream media, and people continue to pay attention to this major event, and the Arab League is also rekindled.

On September 15, in the fifth round of the A-League, Boca Juniors played against Independiente Argentina.

Founded in 1905, Independiente Argentina is the most successful club in Argentina with the exception of River Plate and Boca Juniors, and has won the Argentine First Division 14 times. What makes the club's fans even more proud is that Independiente has won the Copa Libertadores seven times, the most in the history of the Copa Libertadores so far.

It's a pity that the glory is not permanent, the Argentine Independiente team at this time is not what it used to be, and they are too indulged in the glory of the past They have unknowingly gnawed away their old roots and ranked at the bottom of the standings.

Riquelme, who returned in this game, started with Santiago Zizizi, who had a strong performance in the previous game, and the two combined for the first time this season in the La Liga. But perhaps it was the national team's distractions that affected Riquelme's form, and throughout the game, Romy's performance was unsatisfactory, and even allowed Independiente to score a goal first.

Fortunately, Santo Thiago held up the big picture and provided an assist in the 65th minute of the game to help the team equalize, and finally the score was maintained until the end of the game, and Boca's four-game winning streak came to an end.

Riquelme's state after the game caused a lot of repercussions, although Riquelme did not show any unusual expressions in front of everyone, but Santiago could see that his mood and state were indeed affected.

In fact, I don't know why, Riquelme has recently been portrayed as a "ball bully" in Argentina, saying that he used his personal influence in the Boca Juniors team to squeeze out goalkeeper Caranta who has conflicts with him, and in the national team, he is also under the special care of Basilé without training.

These rumours are nonsense in the eyes of Santhiago, who had previously been rejected by Romi because his mother was seriously ill and was forgiven by the Football Association. However, after that, he could not resist Basile's repeated invitations and had to return to the national team, because in Basille's tactical system, the position of the traditional striker is indispensable, and this almost obsessive attitude towards the classic midfielder made Basile establish Riquelme as the commander and soul of the team from the beginning.

Basilé likes to bet his fate on the individual performance of his stars, especially on Riquelme, who is more emotionally affected, which once made insiders and outsiders feel deeply uneasy, but Riquelme's form is still good.

However, four of Boca's wins this season have come in Riquelme's absence, while Argentina have not won a competitive match since their 3-0 win over Bolivia on November 17 last year, and Riquelme is also considered to be the culprit.

Of course, Santhiago wants to complain about his big brother, there is no reason to blame one person for the slump of the national team, and about the national team not training, isn't it that he has long agreed with coach Basile to go home every few days to take care of his seriously ill mother? When it comes to dedicating himself to the country, hasn't Romy done enough in the face of justice? In such a situation, he also promised Batista to sit in the national Olympic team to compete in the Olympics, isn't this for the country?

When it comes to choosing an overage player as the core, Veron, Cambiaso can't they?

Fortunately, Boca coach Ischea stood up for the first time and excused Riquelme, and even Basile, who had resigned, said that the team's slump was his own reason to stabilize public opinion.

But God may just be looking for something to do, Riquelme still did not perform well in the sixth round of the Argentine youth against Argentina Juniors, and Santo Thiago was also unable to help his teammates score in this game, and the game ended up 0-0 in the first game, Boca ushered in a two-game winless run.

It was at this time that the San Lorenzo club came from behind and snatched the top spot from Boca.

This time the fans quit, and the media continued to believe that Riquelme was a bully in the team, and at the same time, the two-game winless run in the league added fuel to the fire, which made them have a lot of dissatisfaction with Riquelme.

Seeing this situation, Santhiago just wanted to stand up and defend Romy, but was stopped, when he asked what was the matter, Romy calmly said that the fans would not believe the rumors of the football dominance, but the defeat in the league made them dissatisfied, and the explanation had no effect in such a situation.

It has to be said that Riquelme saw the essence of the problem, but it was precisely this that made people feel powerless.

Because in the seventh round of the A-League, although Riquelme scored a beautiful free kick and sent an assist to Saint-Tiago, the two scored all two goals of the team and played brilliantly, but they couldn't withstand the fierce offensive of the Tiger team, and Boca collapsed in the second half and was overturned by three goals in a row!

While Tigre took the opportunity to climb to third in the table, Riquelme was also greeted with a storm of double doubts from media fans, many of whom demanded that Riquelme not be played in the next game. Because Boca won consecutive games without him in the first four rounds, and now Riquelme has returned without a win in three rounds, and in this case it seems that the best way is to let Riquelme go down and watch the last game to see if Boca can do without him.

"Santi, you try this steak, this is a good thing, the meat is high-quality and delicious, I specially bought it from the southern farm, ordinary people don't have such channels, try it quickly!"

Sitting in Riquelme's ordinarily decorated home, watching him smile for a rare time in this time, Santhiago also smiled and picked up a knife and fork to eat.

It was two days after the end of the seventh round, and Santiago had been invited by Riquelme to his home, which of course Santiago would not refuse.

After a while, Santi swept away the food on his plate, and set his eyes on Riquelme's plate, which made Riquelme dumbfounded for a while, he didn't expect Santiago to be so edible! In desperation, he could only ask his wife to serve this kid another one, no way, although the relationship is iron, but he still has to be full for dinner, otherwise wouldn't it be bad for his Riquelme's reputation to spread?

With a bitter smile in pain, Riquelme shook his head, fame, thinking of this, he couldn't help but put down the knife and fork in his hand and sighed.

For his friend's reaction, Saint-Tiago saw it, and he knew what Ricquelme was thinking, and he couldn't help but feel a little gloomy, so he could only say with relief: "No, Romy! How many winds and waves have you experienced, such a three-round invincibility makes you sigh for a long time? That's too bad, isn't it? “

Although there are many cheering elements in this remark, but Santhiago is really not talking nonsense, and now the outside world's criticism of Riquelme is infuriating in Santi's opinion, but it is really drizzle compared to his status as a public enemy in Milan back then!

However, what Santi didn't expect was that Riquelme chuckled lightly when he heard his words, and said in an inexplicable tone: "Santi, do you know who the new national team coach is?" “

Manager? National?

Hearing this, Santiago subconsciously paused for a moment, he just wanted to taunt Romy for not being a fool, but he couldn't help but look at his friend carefully, and couldn't help but say: "There are variables? “

It shouldn't be! In Santiago's view, with the clear support of the national Olympic team's winning team, Mr. Batista should have no problem taking the position!
