'It's really satisfying from the results of the game, but you see, here, here, here, we still have problems in attack and defense. After the friendly match between Inter Milan and Slovenia, Leon and coach Bielsa were in the hotel where the Argentine team was staying, analyzing the shortcomings of the Argentine team in this friendly match.

"If you look at it, we didn't have those problems when our substitutes came on. In fact, against Slovenia we could have scored earlier. Leon spread his hands and said to Bielsa.

Bielsa nodded, "In attack we lack depth, Luis and Maxey are good team players, but in terms of individual ability, Aimar and Riquelme are definitely more prominent. We have two days to adjust before our next game against Nigeria and I think Argentina will be at their best before the World Cup. ”

"Well, that's right. But at the head of the day, I think we need to step up our set-piece defence, you see, Slovenia's only few chances have come from set-pieces, Samuel and Ayala are not tall enough, the average height of our backline is not even 1.8m, which makes us suffer against a tall team. Leon pointed to one of the footage on the video and said.

'Yes, but we can't adjust at the back, so we have to try to keep the opposition as tight as possible in the game and give them as few set-pieces as possible. After all, height is natural, and if the average height of Argentina's backline is ten centimeters taller, then what are the other teams playing?

God is absolutely fair, and He never makes invincible creatures. Humans are even less likely to be invincible creatures...... Argentina beat Slovenia 4-0 in their penultimate warm-up game of the World Cup, scoring twice in each half, and the strength of the defending champions has led bookmakers to adjust Argentina's odds to win the title after this friendly match.

…… There is only one week left before the start of the World Cup, and the top 32 are all preparing for their own intense matches.

During the two days of June 3 and June 4, the Argentine team mainly carried out deep passing training, because the Argentine team is the favorite to win the World Cup, so they cannot expect every opponent to play against them.

They have to prepare themselves for the battle.

On June 4th, when the Argentine team was preparing for the warm-up match with Nisalia, a big man appeared on the training ground of the Argentine team.

Barty, the star of the World Cup in '02 and the current World Cup record holder, came to Germany to visit Argentina.

"Oh! Man, I didn't expect you to visit today. Leon said after hugging Barty cordially.

"Haha, it looks like you're in good shape, how's it going, is everything ready?" Barty's arrival made the Argentine team's training ground lively, because many players in the Argentine team grew up watching Barty's ball.

As one of the youngest teams in this World Cup, the only flaw and flaw of the young Argentina team may be what the pundits call the experience of the tournament.

"Gabriel, you've surprised me!" Uncle Peron also came up and punched Barty hard after seeing the old fellow.

After retiring from the game, Barty is now a commentator for the Argentine digital satellite television station, and he will be commentating on the Argentine team with Kempes and Varidec in this World Cup.

Crespo, who partnered with Barty in the 02 World Cup, also came to hug his former partner, and Bielsa also patted his former lover with emotion and said: "Actually, you can hold on until '06, Gabriel." ”

Barty shook his head, "You see we have so many good strikers, to be honest, I've seen a lot of Gonzano [Higuain] games, he's a very good young man, Tevez is good, you see how good he did at Inter. Cruz is a calm killer who will help us when necessary, not to mention Messi, this kid is simply a copy of Diego [Maradona]. Haha, of course, we have the best players in the world right now. ”

Looking at Leon, Barty also suddenly felt how wise the decision of himself, Zanetti, Ortega and others four years ago was, he was really born for Argentina.

"Gabriel, now that you're here, do you want to change your clothes and play with us?" Patting Barty on the shoulder, Veron asked.

"Of course, I haven't played in a long time, come on, I'll play with you." Barty said with a smile and a nod.

On the training ground, Barty's addition has made the training atmosphere of the Argentine team a lot easier, although he has been retired for two years, but Barty's strength is still undoubted, and on the training ground, Barty will also point out Higuain's running position from time to time.

"Looks like Gabriel likes Gonzano." Leon said to Cambiaso.

"Well, I've heard that Barty will go to watch Gonzano play in the country when he plays in China, and seriously, Gonzano will definitely be his successor to the number nine in the future." Cambiaso said with a smile.

"Yes, although Gonzano is wearing the number nine shirt left by Barty, he is not at the level of Barty after all, and this World Cup is a rare opportunity for him and Leo to practice, and their future is really worth looking forward to." Leon nodded, and said to Cambiaso undeniably.

It seems that because of Barty, Higuain is really in good shape today, Higuain's biggest problem in his previous life was his shooting, there is absolutely no problem with his movement, but his shooting lacks consistency, otherwise he could have scored more and more goals.

And what about Barty? Barty's best thing is shooting, so he also gave some guidance to Higuain's shots, and the entire Argentine team's training ground seemed to be very lively.

"With our current form, although it is very good, it is not enough to win the championship." On the side of the pitch, Bielsa also frowned and said.

He is well aware of the strength of the opponents in this World Cup, although the Argentine team is world-class in all aspects, but compared to the Argentina team that was hailed as the strongest in history four years ago, this Argentina does lack a bit of sharpness.

Tempo is no problem at all, and teams with Leonwill never have to worry about tempo and possession. The defence is also very good, and Samuel's growth over the years has allowed him to play with Ayala with ease, and apart from the need to be careful when defending from set-pieces, this Argentine team is definitely one of the best teams in this World Cup.

The problem is still attacking, in fact, Bielsa has considered putting one of Aimar and Messi on the field, because the roles of Luis Gonzalez and Maxi Roardriguez are somewhat repetitive, and Argentina often lack breakthrough and depth in the front.

Although León and Cambiasso are often plugged in, this Argentine team has the impression of being strong and lacks a real sense of intimidation.

The inexplicable breakthrough of Aimar and Ortega in the '02 World Cup was unforgettable, and it was really difficult for Argentina to make it to the end without these two in that World Cup.

…… On June 5th, Argentina finally had their final test before the start of this World Cup, and they welcomed the African eagle Niglia in Hamburg.

For León, Niglia has a different meaning, because four years ago, it was in the first match of the World Cup against Niglia that León, who was still a few days away from turning 19, wore the armband of the Argentine national team captain for the first time.

This time they met Niglia again, and Leon also expressed his hope before the game that Nijilia could bring them good luck.

In the stands of the Hamburg World Cup, Barty, Ortega and others, who won the championship of the Argentine team in 02, came to Germany, as the golden generation of the Argentine team, they are very much looking forward to this young Argentina team can defend the title in this World Cup.

Young Rio Messi will start today as the team's shadow striker, alongside the equally young Gonzalo Higuain.

On the left and right, Bielsa opted for Aimar and Luis Gonzalez, and on the central axis, Mascherano was given a chance, and the Argentinian who will move to the Reds to Liverpool for 25 million euros next season also looked confident.

He will be partnered today with the captain of the national team, León.

At the back, Burdisso and Colocini played in central defence, Ayala played at left-back, Zanetti at right-back, and substitute goalkeeper Ustari replaced Abang Dancelli in the back today.

This is the last test of the Argentine team before the World Cup, and in the stands, other powerful scouts are coming to the scene, because they know that in this game, the Argentine team will definitely expose some of their things.

A cup competition like the World Cup is a very challenging command of a coach, he has to control the form of the team, and now is the time when Argentina has to be out of form, so this game is very important for the other teams as well.

Especially Argentina's opponent in the first World Cup match, Ivory Coast, this African powerhouse may not have some ideas of its own.

In the tunnel of the players, the players of both teams were already waiting to play, Messi and Higuain were slightly nervous, the two little ones were a little shaking, and Leon was wearing the armband and walked first.

As the FIFA fair play song sounded, under the leadership of the referee, the defending champion appeared!

"Argentina! Argentina! Argentina! Argentina!! ”

"Victory! Win! Win! Win! ”

Exams begin!
