Chapter Fifty-Seven: Breaking the Goal!
Although the two sides attacked each other throughout the first half, the performance of the Brazilian Olympic team was unconvincing.
After losing control in midfield, the Brazilian's only threat came from the assist of the full-backs, with Raphinha's cross sliding past the goal and Marcelo's cross creating a header for Sobis. However, Sobis, who was arranged in the center forward position by coach Dungari, is the same as Aguero in the previous games, and he can always miss opportunities magically, which makes people anxious and can't help but scold him in their hearts.
Sorbis was an excellent striker who made a name for himself at the Brazilian International Sports Club and was popular with Serie A teams such as AC Milan, but he eventually chose to join Betis. At the 2005 World Youth Championships, Sobeys helped Brazil reach the semi-finals, and as a result, he is considered one of the best rookie strikers in Brazil at the moment. He is in great form after landing in La Liga, and Soris had made a lot of noise about joining AC Milan before, but Soris did not land in Serie A in the end.
AC Milan also relented to his compatriot, Pato.
However, according to the current state of Sobis, it is really difficult to convince the public, but fortunately, Argentina, which occupies the top points, has not scored a goal, which makes coach Dunga have no idea of changing people for the time being.
However, when the two sides re-entered the arena after a short break, this delicate balance was broken, because in addition to Riquelme, Santhiago also came into play!
How could Santhiago be content to be calm in such an important match?
Just seven minutes into the second half, Riquelme played the ball past two men and distributed the ball to Gago who was cut in behind, but Gago suddenly raised his foot to let the ball slip under his feet and reach the feet of Santhiago at the far end of the game. At this time, there is only one Brazilian defender in front of Santtiago, and the supernova who plays for Real Madrid, Marcelo!
The Brazilian full-back's future leader immediately leaned in after seeing Saint-Thiago receive the ball, and for the Argentine, who did not have a speed advantage, Marcelo was not in a hurry to steal, but pressed his center of gravity to firmly block in front of Saint-Tiago. His purpose is very clear, and his mind is also very clear, since you San Tiago don't have any speed advantage, then you only have two choices when you meet me:
One, you pass the ball honestly and get out; Second, the brave wins when they meet on the narrow road, it is the mule that the horse comes out for a walk, let's do it with real swords and guns.
Seeing Marcelo's response to Saint-Tiago, he naturally understood what he meant, and Saint-Tiago's eyes may be full of fighting intent, since this is the case, let's do it! Let's see if you can stop my tango!
Santiago, the pearl in the Brazilian crown, is naturally no stranger, delicate feet, light movements, and skillful footwork with the ball are the characteristics of most Brazilians, and Marcelo has added a touch of iron and blood to this, which is why Real Madrid has cultivated it as Carlos's successor.
In the face of such a player, Santhiago did not dare to be careless, he did not start rashly, but walked unhurriedly with the ball and leaned on the sideline, since he quit alcohol, Santiago fell in love with this feeling, every time he would feel the blood rush, although some people have begun to criticize him for being fancy, but he doesn't care! Because of Argentine football, that's what that gorgeous tango team wants!
There is never a word of fancy, because failure is called fancy, and if you succeed, then you are a perfect dancer!
"Humph!"
Marcelo saw San Tiago's slow ball, his eyes flashed and rushed up, but he was not brainlessly pressed, Marcelo's speed was not fast, and his body was intentionally or unintentionally leaning on the left hand side of San Tiago, for San Tiago's next step, he was fully prepared, if you break through from the bottom line, then I will suppress you from the left and squeeze you out of the bottom line, if you break through from the right, then I'm sorry, I'm here, acquaintance, just pass the ball!
Seeing Marcelo's approaching figure, Santhiago directly gave up the idea of continuing to break through to the sideline, and he also flicked the ball and gradually accelerated towards Marcelo.
The fans in the stands are staring with bated breath when they see this scene, Riquelme has used his strength to show the crushing of the Brazilian demons, if Santo Thiago succeeds in single-handing Marcelo this time, then the Brazilian team will really lose to the old opponent in terms of individual skills!
Who called you Ronaldinho this game in the sky!
In this way, two players who each represent a new generation of their own team move at the same time under everyone's gaze!
Saint-Tiago's small steps to hold down the ball and stare at Marcelo's reaction as he moved forward not only prevented Marcelo from seeing his next choice from his steps, but also prevented Marcelo from acting rashly. But Marcelo is not a simple person in the end, and being able to choose Real Madrid as the first stop in Europe, or the star-studded Real Madrid, is enough to let people understand the ambition and pride hidden under his round face and fat!
Marcelo, of course, will not allow himself to fall into a passive position, he took the lead and leaned directly towards the left side of Santiago, making a gesture to block Santiago from the left, but at the same time, he quickly stabbed the ball at the feet of Santiago with his right foot against the inertia of his body in the surprised gaze of everyone!
"It's going to be a showdown! Tango vs. Samba showdown, they will... Marcelo moves! On the left!! It turned out that the treasure was pressed on his right foot, and San Tiago is currently in a dilemma! Marcelo blocked the left, and with his snatch, San Tiago not only couldn't break through, but even lost the chance to retreat! How will he react?
Oh!!! My God!!!! Santhiago actually made a breakthrough!! ”
Santiago's sudden breakthrough caused the Buenos Aires sports TV commentator to jump straight to his feet as if he had been choked by the throat and shouted wildly.
It turned out that San Tiago also understood Marcelo's intentions at the moment when Marcelo stretched out his foot and stabbed the ball, almost subconsciously, he directly pulled away with his right foot, interrupted the small broken step, stepped on the ground and firmly stabilized the center of gravity, and quickly kicked the ball with his left foot!
"What !!" Marcelo was so surprised that he could barely breathe when he saw Saint-Tiago's movements, and in such a seemingly dilemma, he did not retreat but kicked the ball out of Marcelo's expectation, and at this time, Saint-Tiago's right foot also completed the accumulation and kicked out in one step, passing by Marcelo, and he didn't even touch his body at such a close distance!
When Saint-Tiago successfully broke through, Marcelo was distracted for a while and sat on the ground with two steps back, he wanted to chase back but couldn't lift his strength, he could only watch Saint-Thiago go away at an unfast speed.
Seeing this wonderful duel in just a moment to divide the winner, people were amazed, but the more terrifying thing was in the next second, San Thiago did not want to give the Brazilian back to his senses, he suddenly completed the inward cut, in the left side of the penalty area 14 meters away from the goal of the left foot shot into the far corner, Brazilian goalkeeper Reina did not have time to react, the ball hung straight in the corner of the goal, 1:0!!
