Chapter 658: Winning Weapon?
Iroh didn't laugh angrily, staring at the Argentine reporter who asked the question under the gaze of all the reporters at the scene, until the latter shifted his gaze weakly and said lightly in English: "That's also my personal emotional matter, may I ask...... Does it have anything to do with you? ”
"Yes, it doesn't have anything to do with me, but it has to do with thousands of Chinese fans! A player like you who has an inappropriate private life is not worthy of being the captain of the Chinese Olympic team with a long history, if I were the chairman of your Football Association, I would definitely expel you, the kind permanently! The Argentine journalist was clearly irritated by Ayelo's words.
"Hehe......" The corners of Iro's mouth raised, "It's a pity you're not." ”
There weren't too many flowery rebuttals, but it was such simple words that the Argentine journalist almost went berserk.
In the end, the press conference ended on an unhappy note.
But that's just for Argentine journalists, like other journalists.
It's true that Iroh is a public figure, and it's not wrong to have illegitimate children, after all, it's all people's private affairs, and you can pay a little attention to it and report it a little, but you must not anger the person concerned, Aelo, that means they will completely lose the right to report Iro, all these years...... There are really a lot of newspapers that have been hacked by Elora, and some of them have been duly punished.
In addition, what readers like is nothing more than the lace news of football stars, although illegitimate children like it, they may not necessarily like to delve into it, and a proper YY will do, there is no need to fall into it, and messing up the relationship will affect the sales of the newspaper.
……
On the day of the game, the head coach of the Argentine Olympic team, Batista, was bored browsing the Chinese version of the Spanish page.
Soon, he was pinned to the top of a "Surprise World Footballer Bastard Son!" The headlines were intrigued, so he moved his mouse and clicked in, slowly reading through the content with curiosity.
Immediately, the curiosity disappeared, the corners of the mouth rose, and they were replaced by scheming schemes.
He already knew how to limit Iroh's play tonight.
If you don't get it right, you will lose control of your feelings and be sent off the field directly with a red card.
Thinking of this, Batista nodded in satisfaction, then pinched his stubble chin and muttered: "Sergio Batista, you are always the smartest person in Argentina!" That's true for careers, and it's true for coaching careers! ”
……
"Leo, aren't you ready yet?" At five o'clock in the afternoon, Aguero packed up his things, turned his head to look at Messi, who was still juggling the ball, and asked with concern.
Messi didn't answer, his feet still bouncing the ball back and forth, looking for the best sense of the ball.
He knows that tonight's game is very important, and as the attacking heart of the Argentine Olympic team, he must shoulder the responsibility of the team to destroy the city and help the team win.
So the question is, how do you stay in top shape?
From childhood to adulthood, Messi has his own unique way of finding his best state, based on juggling the ball, when he feels the best moment of juggling the ball, it means that the best state comes.
It wasn't until six o'clock that Messi lifted the ball on the tip of his right foot and the arch of his left foot to the stomach of Aguero, who was lying down.
The next moment, Aguero instinctively sat up holding his stomach, and he hadn't recovered for a long time, knowing that he had reached the most critical moment with the Chinese beauty just now......
When Aguero came to his senses, he realized that this was a prank by his good friend Messi, and smashed the ball directly, but Messi was prepared, turned his flexible body, dodged it, and said with a smile: "The accuracy is still so bad!" ”
Aguero rolled his eyes, but had to change the subject, no longer caring: "Ready?" ”
I saw that Messi's eyebrows changed from the previous frivolity to the current firmness, nodded and said, "It's completely ready!" ”
"Hey, it's got to be Argentina in the final!!" Looking at Messi, who was full of confidence, Aguero shouted hysterically.
Fortunately, at this time, the only remaining athletes of the Argentine team went to eat, otherwise they would be greeted by countless condolences to their families.

Before the team left for the Olympic Village, Li Shiyin still refused to answer Iro's call, but fortunately, she replied with a text message saying that Li Ai had woken up.
Therefore, Iroh also breathed a sigh of relief.
The thing that distracted him the most before the game is gone, that is...... You can put all your mind on the semi-finals that are about to begin.
Thinking of this, Iroh clenched his fists.
But...... Then he thought of Taylor Swift's gradually cold attitude, and subconsciously rubbed his temples.
Women's problems, what a headache.
When the bus of the Chinese Olympic team stopped at the designated location of the Beijing Workers Stadium, as usual, a swarm of reporters immediately appeared, but fortunately, the stadium security personnel reacted very quickly, and stopped those reporters who wanted to interview before the game, so that the members of the national Olympic team could safely enter the safe passage.
While the Chinese Olympic team and the Argentine Olympic team entered the Beijing Workers' Stadium for warm-ups, the results of another semi-final at the Shanghai Stadium had already been released.
What is surprising is that the favorite Brazil team lost to Nigeria 3:0! Unbelievable results!!
The Beijing Workers' Stadium is still full, and the fans in the red home jerseys in the stands have completely created the atmosphere of the live game.
Visible red in all directions, like a sea of red.
The five-star red flag flutters in the wind in mid-air, which is pleasing to the eye.
The players of the Chinese Olympic team and the Argentine Olympic team who warmed up on the field each side warmed up.
The reporters who came to the scene focused on the core players on both sides, one was Ailo and the other was Messi.
With the addition of Cristiano Ronaldo, all three were popular fried chickens in last season's Champions League.
As for Riquelme, he was subconsciously ignored, in their minds, Riquelme is old, he is not as eye-catching as Messi who was in hot form last season, and he has proved this all the way from the group stage, and the Argentine Olympic team can stand out from the group stage, which is inseparable from Messi's outstanding performance.
It wasn't until the end of the warm-up between the two sides that Messi and Iello had their first pre-match direct communication.
Feng Xiaoting's long pass on the line of the penalty area did not control the power and was slightly stronger, and Iello had to jump up to pick up the ball, like an aerial relay on a basketball court, but he did not touch it, and the ball flew towards the half of the Argentine Olympic team's warm-up.
After landing on the ground, Iroh instinctively looked at the Argentine half, and the football just flew in the direction of Messi and Aguero's short pass, so he shouted directly in Spanish: "Hey, Leao...... Help kick the ball over. ”
Messi naturally stopped his foot movements, looked at the football not far away, and suddenly a prank idea popped up in his mind, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
Iroh didn't think much of it, just stood at the halfway line and waited.
"Next!" Messi stepped on the football and completed a hundred and eighty degrees, turned to face the direction occupied by Iro, and shouted loudly.
Iroh hurriedly made an 'ok' gesture.
But what he didn't expect was that Messi didn't kick the football in the direction he was at all, but kicked it directly to the left sideline, which means that Iroh still had to run over to pick up the ball, which is equivalent to having to make up for the steps that were omitted just now.
I'll go!
When Iroh turned his head to look at Messi, all he saw was his back.
And this scene was also inspired by the reporter who had been waiting for a long time with the camera, and the shutter in his hand kept pressing, and at the same time he had countless themes in mind.
※※※
The scene of Messi pranking Iroh made Iroh a little uncomfortable, but it became one of the hot topics of discussion before the semi-finals of the men's football team at the Olympics.
Half an hour before the start of the game, players from both sides stopped warming up and went to their respective dressing rooms to wait for the manager's final arrangements.
Away team locker room
Coach Batista surprised Mascherano by name for the first time.
"Javier ......"
The other ten team members subconsciously looked at Mascherano.
Instead, Mascherano looked at the manager Batista with a relaxed face, and he knew that he had a very heavy task tonight, especially in defense, and the manager would definitely focus on deployment at this time.
Really!
Batista said with a stern face: "Javier, I will hand over the responsibility of defending Ai to you tonight, is there a problem?" ”
Mascherano was stunned for a moment, and then nodded instinctively, if you pay a little attention, you can easily see that Mascherano does not have much confidence.
Batista's eyes were sharp, and he saw the hesitation in Mascherano's eyes for the first time, but he didn't point it out directly, but continued: "Javier, I don't need you to keep an eye on Ai tonight, as long as you provoke him with words in the limited time you have to fight!" ”
"What? Provoke him? Mascherano's eyes widened, his face full of incredulity. Because he used this trick on Iroh, but it didn't work at all, but he was angry, if he hadn't endured it at the beginning, he would have deliberately hurt the opposing player and was sent off.
"That's right, provoke him!" Batista paused and said with a smile: "I don't know if you have watched the news recently?" ”
"News?" Mascherano shook his head: "No! ”
Batista didn't answer, but glanced directly at his assistant, who immediately recalled and handed the prepared Apple tablet to Mascherano.
Half a minute later, Mascherano slowly changed from a puzzled face to a thoughtful one, and nodded.
That's right! This is what Batista wants Mascherano to use these words to provoke Elo in his limited physical contact with him, so as to profit the team!!
It can be said that ...... This is the magic weapon he came up with for the Argentine Olympic team!
