101: León's football philosophy

The Ivory Coast team was really excited today, and their excitement soon reached an unprecedented point with their goal.

However, it was their excitement that gave Argentina a chance to counterattack!

The noble son Leonville took the ball from the middle to the hinterland of the Ivorian team, and the left, middle and right sides of the Argentine team followed in time, and there were as many as six Argentine players in the defense area of the Ivory Coast for a while!

Leon had no intention of stopping, and after catching Cambiaso's diagonal pass, León adjusted slightly and knocked the ball to the right, where the experienced Javier Zanetti followed up and dribbled forward!

The Ivory Coast defense was forced to move closer to their left side, Zanetti's experience played a role at this time, he did not choose to force the Ivory Coast's left-back Eboue, he knocked the ball back to the middle, Cambiaso who followed in the middle stopped the ball with his left foot and leaned forward, the back of the Ivory Coast team who was very active in the defense Ey-Faye was completely fooled, Cambiaso's subsequent heel knock directly took the Ivory Coast back line away!

León, who followed in the middle, caught Cambiaso's exquisite pass and didn't look at the crowd, and in the penalty area, the Argentine team's beast Tevez appeared!

He catches the ball and shoots at Kolo Toure!

Boom!

"Hmm――――――――!!!" There was a burst of exclamations at the World Cup stadium in Hamburg, and Argentina's mercury attack almost knocked on the goal of the African elephant.

'It looks like the defending champions have regained their playing feel and they were too slow to heat up today. Sky England, Martin Taylor commented.

'But at least now they've found a way to play, and their strength isn't physical, it's their technique at their feet, so they should use that advantage against Ivory Coast.' Another Sky TV commentator, Gary Lineker, added.

"It's a shame that Tevez missed a good chance, but the Argentine attack just now can really be said to be a mercury drop, which is the Argentina we are familiar with." Varidek, one of the three Argentine commentators in charge of commentating the Argentine team's games, feels that his heart, which has just been calm, can now slowly float.

"Yes, Argentina may not have fully adapted to the World Cup after the opening, after all, the World Cup is different from the club game, and the Ivory Coast pressed Argentina very strongly after the opening. Fortunately, though, Leon steadied their rhythm, and they didn't panic, but slowly organized counterattacks and attacks after falling behind. The former Argentine god of war Barty also nodded and said.

"Then it's up to the Argentine team to keep up with the rhythm of the game just now." Kempes, the oldest, added.

On the pitch, Tevez looked a little frustrated after missing out on the opportunity, but after his team-mates gave him a thumbs up, Tevez was back in high spirits.

"Leo, what are you doing, hurry up and get ready to press." Captain Leon found at this time that Messi did not seem to be in the same rhythm as everyone.

It seems that Yaya Toure Toure's success in his defense has taken a big toll on his confidence.

"Hmm." Poor little Messi lowered his head and nodded, but the three words of unconfidence were still written on his face.

At this time, Leon suddenly walked towards Messi, and he patted Messi on the shoulder, "Leo, do you remember what I said to you when I first met you?" ”

"You were a kid who didn't know anything, but now you're an Argentine player and you're wearing an Argentine jersey, so you have to show your energy. The more you fight, the more courageous you are, is the spirit that a man in the pampas steppe should have. Don't forget, how you got the starting position. Leon looked at the frustrated little Messi and said to him.

Messi raised his head and looked at Leon, Brother Leon, why can you always be so calm and calm? Why don't you panic like me when something goes wrong? Originally, Messi felt that he was very close to his idol, because many times, people said that he was copying the line Leonwill took when Argentina won the World Cup in 02.

However, it is only now that Messi knows how great Leonwill, who became the captain of the Argentine team at the age of eighteen, in the World Cup in 02!

The pressure he was under was much greater than his current one! No wonder Veron always says that Leon is not the king of the ball, who is the king of the ball. This kind of domineering who is self-sacrificing, this kind of leadership temperament that can always give teammates a sense of stability...... In our Champions League final, we didn't lose unjustly at all.

On the field, just as the goalkeeper of Côte d'Ivoire was about to open the goal, little Messi, who had been frustrated, annoyed and unconfident, suddenly tore his jersey and yelled at the sky!

"Leon, what's wrong with Messi?" Cambiaso glanced at Leon and asked.

Almost all of the Argentine players have their eyes on their captain and Messi.

However, Leon only smiled, and he quickly used his gesture to remind his teammates that the game had resumed!

Messi's roar also made the Ivorians unclear So, the commentators of the major TV stations were speculating at this time what Leonwill, the captain of the Argentine national team, said to Messi, the immature junior of the year.

The game continues!

Under the leadership of León, the Argentine team quickly controlled the situation on the pitch with constant pressing and small crosses.

At the World Cup stadium in Hamburg, fans of the Argentine team saw the real return of the defending champions.

"Argentina must win !!!" "Argentina must win !!!!!" "Argentina must win !!!!"

Ivorians, are you ready, get ready for the defending champions' onslaught!

Drogba began to retreat, which is a dangerous signal, under Mourinho, Drogba has gradually grown into a striker who can both attack and defend, but the general Drogba retreat means that his own back line has been under great pressure.

The Argentines attacked like a storm, blowing one after another!

Under the exquisite organization of Leonwill, the defending champions equalized in the 40th minute of the first half.

It was a team effort for Argentina, and before the end of the first half, Messi finally redeemed himself.

Leon, who got the ball in the middle, suddenly made a long pass under the pressure of Drogba, and his accurate dispatch directly opened the Ivory Coast defense! Inexperience is the biggest problem for African elephants, and this time, they put too much emphasis on keeping an eye on Leonwell, the king of the world!

Leon's long pass is accurate as if it is equipped with a sight, Messi Jr. stops the ball with his shoulder and pulls it horizontally with his right foot, facing Yaya Toure Toure, who has been deflating himself in the first half, Messi has no previous fear!

The word "courage" was written on his face.

Leo, you have never been Maradona's successor, because you have to create a completely new template, a template of your own!

Messi shook Yaya Toure away, and he used his dexterity to overcome the power of the elephant! Yaya Toure's defensive misalignment has caused the entire Ivory Coast backline to lose their core!

Leonwill inserted from behind, and the young Messi seemed to have returned to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where he, Cristiano Ronaldo, Sergio Aguero, Higuain and a group of other talents were training with Leonwill...... He didn't look up, but he knew that his horizontal pass would definitely find that person, that idol of his, his childhood dream, his current goal!

Leon Will follows up from behind!

The captain of the Argentine national team caught Messi's cross pass and opened another defender of the Ivory Coast team, Faye!

"Run!" Tevez yelled and took away the two back midfielders of the Ivory Coast team with Crespo! An open sniper field appeared in front of Leon's eyes!

Leon raised his right foot!

He whipped the ball with great speed! He shoots from 23 yards out!

His shot was like an M82A1 and flew into the corner of the Ivory Coast goal!

The Argentines finally found their joy again, and at the World Cup stadium in Hamburg, the king of the world, Leonwell, equalized the score for the Argentines with a long-range shot!

“gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!!!!”

"Leon ―――――――――― Will !!!"

"Leon ―――――――――― Will !!!!!"

"Leon ―――――――――――――― Will !!!"

At the World Cup stadium in Hamburg, the fans of Argentina are boiling! In the Rose Garden in Buenos Aires, Argentina, hundreds of thousands of Argentine fans raised their glasses in celebration at one moment!

Captain León scored Argentina's first goal of this World Cup!

A wonderful World Cup! The Ivory Coast goalkeeper could only look at the ball at this moment and sigh.

After the goal, Leon raised his hands in the air, and he was like a king, enjoying the cheers of the Argentine fans and the embrace of his teammates.

"Hahahaha, I said a long time ago, this kid is not the king of the ball, who is the king of the ball?" Veron, who was on the bench, stood up and then clapped.

At the moment of León's goal, the players sitting on the bench of the Argentine team had already rushed into the stadium together!

The defending champions have regained their aura!
