Chapter Eighty-Five: Killing the Old Master

That's right, it's a long pass and a hanging.

In the attack, there is no too much entanglement in the midfield, and instead of seeking to get offensive opportunities through patient passing, they drive directly to the opponent's half, and the attacking players fight to get opportunities. This tactic allows the physically strong but unskilled Estudiantes de La Plata to reduce passing, as well as reduce the chance of mistakes, especially in midfield.

It is conceivable that this tactic is particularly demanding for players, first of all, the players who take the ball need to have a good overall view and accurate judgment of the game situation on the field, when they find the defensive loopholes in the opponent's half, they have a delicate long pass footwork to accurately pass the ball to the target area or the feet of their own players, which is not a problem for the Estudiantes team with a strong midfield, not to mention the return of Veron at the moment.

The second is that this tactic requires a higher level of strikers, who must have strong impact and strong body, be able to get the football when fighting with the opposing defender, and get opportunities through active continuous scrambles.

And this was done in this match by a figure that Boca fans had never expected before.

When Gloria, who was on par with Veron, got the ball and faced the defense of Boca defender Patagoria, he immediately hoisted the ball into the box. Seeing this situation, the Boca defense was naturally prepared, and central defender Morel found the right direction and rushed straight towards the point where the ball landed.

Morel's timely appearance made Boca fans who were in their throats breathe a sigh of relief, and now Morel is definitely the most reassuring part of the Boca defense, and he has been playing in the Liga for 11 seasons in terms of strength and experience, and has won numerous honors.

Today's Boca fans have almost obsessive trust in him, but before Morel could get completely close in the penalty area, La Plata striker Mauro Boselli met the ball in the chest, then turned half-turned, hit the ball with his right leg, and directly broke the ten fingers of goalkeeper Migoliore with a shocking world wave!!

“goal!!!!!! Mauro Boselli! Mauro Boselli! He scored a near-perfect world wave! It was definitely one of the best goals of the tournament, chest stop, turn around, hit the goal! His movements are done in one go! Without the slightest pause!! Estudiantes de La Plata equalised in the 38th minute with their best long-pass lob!! ”

"The race is back on the same page!! This time the goal was from Veron's breakthrough and Boseli's shot! The two Boca veterans teamed up to break down the goals of their former clubs!! ”

The excited Boseli was almost crazy at this time, he didn't care that the first half of the game was not over, he took off his shirt and rushed to the stands on the sidelines after scoring a goal, he defiantly kept signaling that the Boca people scored the goal himself, and after getting the boos from the sky, Boseli showed a smug and hateful smile, and even put his left hand to his ear, as if to say: "What? What are you talking about? I can't hear it at all!! It's too quiet!! ”

Boseli's response caused even louder boos and insults, and many people even threw lighters and bottles at him, but then Boseli was surrounded by his teammates who were also excited to run in the middle, cheering and completely separating him from the Boca fans.

Seeing this, Saint-Tiago wiped his face, his expression was inexplicable, and he muttered: "Boseli, Boseli...... It would be you......"

Coincidentally, although the rest of the Boca players were depressed because of the goal conceded, they couldn't afford any anger when they saw the crazy celebration and even the very excessive behavior, but tens of thousands of Boca fans still kept spitting on this "traitor".

Born in Buenos Aires in 1985 in Buenos Aires, he is of Italian descent and trained in the Boca youth system. Having made his debut in 2003 in Boca Juniors' 7-2 win over Rosario Central, Boselli has been regarded as an outstanding talent since the start of his career with Boca's youth team, a typical goalscorer who can score from any position, cold-blooded and accurate, with whom he was trained, Banega, Santo Tiago and others who could only look at his back, and there is no doubt that this is the closest talent to them.

At that time, Boca Juniors was in a small talent break period, the two summer window kings Santhiago and Banega had not yet risen, and Monzon and others were in the echelon of the youth team, so Boseli can be said to be favored by the fans of the entire Boca area.

But that all changed when Boselli moved to Malaga in '05. His initial foray into Europe was unsuccessful, and he was not even able to play in Malaga and had to play in the B team, and the huge gap led to the choice of Boseli to return to Boca in '06, but he did not show much quality in the first few months, and could only play as a third striker after Palermo and Palacio.

After nearly two seasons in such a situation, this summer, when all eyes were on the Olympics, Boseli made a low-key switch to Estudiantes de La Plata, becoming what people call a "traitor".

Ironically, in Estudiantes de La Plata, not far from Boca, Boselli found his sense of scoring goals, scoring six goals in his first eight appearances, which was the biggest guarantee for Estudiantes de La Plata, and in this game, he also carried his good form to his old club.

The scene of killing the old owner and celebrating wildly made the eyes of many fans move from the gimmick of the Ribe duel and the big and small Veron rivalry to Boseli, the darling who seems to have gone to a new life and gave Boca Juniors a bitter taste.

After returning to the dressing room after the first half ended with a 1-1 draw, the players' emotions were more or less affected by Boseli, and the transfer was understandable for professional players. Besides, Boseli, who returned to Boca, also left without playing for two seasons, which can be said to be benevolent, but after the goal, his-for-tat with Boca fans unconsciously made the players have a very bad feeling.

Coach Ischia saw this situation and intended to boost morale, but there was no significant effect, and the core of the team on the other side, Riquelme, did not have too many outstanding performances after playing long passes and avoiding midfield tactics, coupled with the influence of some off-field factors, Riquelme seemed to disappear in the second half of the first half. At this time, Riquelme was not in the mood to encourage the team, so the players re-entered the field in such a slump.
