readx;
This time, it was the turn of the Argentine fans to be excited!
A perfect storm of blue was instantly set off in the stands!
1ļ¼1ļ¼
No one thought that in the face of the tall Greek team and the opponent's backline like a long forest, the Argentine team actually broke through the goal of the Greek team in such a [***] way!
Demichelis turned and ran for the first time after making sure the football had scored the goal!
He waved his arms away from the embrace of his teammates who rushed at him, his long black hair, flying and jumping like flames under the gloomy sky, he galloped all the way, like a horse that has broken off the reins and greedily enjoyed the taste of free running, and went straight to the coach's seat of the Argentine team on the sidelines...... Without saying any more words, he picked up the head coach crazy Li Gao!
"Thank you, Boss!" He said. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
If he had been substituted at half-time, Demichelis would have no doubt that he would have been firmly on the World Cup shame post because of that low-level mistake, and would never have any chance to turn around...... Thankfully, none of that happened!
Demichelis didn't expect that the always strict head coach Maniac Lee would actually open up to himself and leave himself on the field.
He was so excited, he hugged Li Tongfan frantically, and the old Li who was about to cuff his arms was out of breath, and his thoughts returned to the scene that happened in the dressing room before.................. "Sure enough, I'm going to be replaced!" ā
Fifteen minutes ago.
Argentina locker room.
Seeing the head coach write the list of substitutions on the tactical board, and then staring at himself with a serious expression, Demichelis finally raised his head, he couldn't help but feel a wave of frustration in his heart, he was still a little bit lucky, hoping that he would be retained, but now, ...... There is no fluke!!
At that moment, looking at the eyes of head coach Li Tongfan without the slightest smile, Demichelis's heart sank little by little...... However, at this time, Demichelis heard head coach Lee Tong-beom speak.
He said: "We made substitutions in the second half, Carlos, and this game is not very important for us, so I want you to rest in the second half and gather your energy to prepare for the next knockout game......"
Tevez was stunned for a moment, but immediately smiled and nodded: "No problem, boss, hehe, to be honest, I'm actually a little tired for a long time, just have a chance to rest!" ā
In fact, anyone who is replaced just after the end of the first half of the game will be a little unhappy in their hearts, not to mention that the team is in trouble now? However, the manager explained the reason very cleverly, and it was considered to have given him enough face in front of his teammates. Although Twyz is nicknamed "Beast", however, it is only to describe his terrifying deterrence and impact like a beast on the field, not that he is really a reckless beast with no head and no brains...... Therefore, although he is not happy in his heart, he is as smart as Tewiz, and he clearly hears the meaning of the manager's words - he will be the main player of the team in the knockout round...... He cooperated very well in front of his teammates and gave full support to Li Tongfan's decision!
Lee Tong-beom smiled and nodded at Tewiz.
Then, he continued to arrange the tactics: "The Greek team put all their strength on the defensive side, just one Samaras will not pose much of a threat, I need to remove a midfielder and strengthen the team's attack......"
Speaking of this, Lao Li's eyes looked at Fernando Gago.
Gago, who has worked with Li Tongfan for many years, quickly understood the meaning of 'Tou'er', as a descendant, he was not worried about his position in the knockout round at all, so he laughed thiefly, took the initiative to shake the white plush towel in his hand, and said: "Boss, I'm just like Carlos, I'm also a little tired, or I'll come down and rest?" ā
Li Tongfan nodded.
"Okay, Gonzalo, you go out and warm up and get ready to replace Fernando......"
Higuain happily agreed and went out to warm up.
Lao Li shifted his gaze to Cambiaso and said with a smile: "Esteban, your defensive task will be heavy in the second half, but I hope you can still divide your energy to participate in the team's offensive, after all, your attacking ability is also the ...... the team needs."
Cambiaso nodded gratefully, in understanding.
Cambiaso saw all this just now, he understood that the coach was deliberately sacrificing his lineage Gago, to give himself the opportunity to play the whole game, as the meritorious figure of Inter Milan's treble, Cambiaso has always been eager for a World Cup with his own imprint, he did not get even a minute of playing time in the first two games, and now, he can finally play the full 90 minutes.
"Okay, now let's talk about the tactical changes in the second half."
Li Tongfan turned around and came to the tactics board, picked up the delicate little whip, and was about to explain the team's tactics...... "Huh? Substitutions completed? That...... That...... What about me? ā
Demichelis, who had been waiting for the head coach to say his name, definitely did not expect that until the end of the substitution, in the list of people who were replaced, he would actually ...... I didn't have my own...... He was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but subconsciously ask.
"You? Demy, what, do you want to come down and rest like Fernando? ā
Li Tongfan turned around and asked with a strange expression.
"Uh...... No, it's not...... That one...... This one...... The turnover in the first half ......"
Demichelis was hesitant and didn't know what to say for a while.
He suddenly felt that he was so stupid, since the head coach had decided to let him go, how good it was for him to sit honestly and not speak, why bother?
"Oh, you said you conceded the ball?"
Li Tongfan pretended to show a relieved expression on his face, and deliberately comforted Demichelis: "Well, to be honest, I really wanted to rush over and strangle you at that time, but later, I carefully watched the whole process of losing the ball, and I found that I should blame the South Africans for the damn lawn, and the main fault is not you...... Otherwise, Demy, believe me, I wouldn't have hesitated to replace you then! ā
Li Tongfan said this, and suddenly smiled mysteriously at Demichelis: "Of course, Demi, if you feel ashamed of your teammates because of that mistake, you can choose to score a goal in the second half and make amends for everything......"
The players in the dressing room laughed.
Messi squeezed his eyes at Demichelis and grimaced.
The Bayern centre-back did not speak...... He clenched his fists tightly.
"I'll score two goals!!" He said to himself in his heart.
Assistant coach Li Bing was on the side, silently watching Li Tongfan perfectly complete the adjustment of the team's tactics in a few words, so that every big-name star happily accepted the ...... Moreover, Li Bing believes that Li Tongfan's treatment of Demichelis in a wrong way will definitely make the latter have an impulse to 'die for his confidant'!
"Okay, now let's talk about the tactics of the second half, the wings fly together, we don't go to the ground to cooperate, but to go high = bombing, which is to destroy the pride of the Greeks and make them lose confidence in themselves......"
Lee Tong-beom began to lay out the tactics of the second half, and his words were amazing.
Playing high ball against a team like Greece? The hammers were a little stunned.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ on the field.
After the Argentine team celebrated wildly, the game soon resumed.
The situation on the field has returned to the situation that has been maintained before - the blue and white team are attacking, and the Greek team is still firmly cowering in their own half of the defense!
At this time, the sky that had been overcast for a day finally fell to the ground with raindrops.
"It's starting to rain...... I really didn't expect that the Argentine team actually equalized with a high ball, which was a big surprise...... Demichelis repaid the trust of the madman Lee, who behaved like a beast at that moment, full of aggression!! ā
"Header to the spot, clever follow-up...... Demichelis completed the attack alone, and everything he showed was more like a super striker with a lot of goals! ā
"Accidental goals and goals, it seems that luck is always on the side of the madman Lee!"
'The situation for the Greek team is a bit bad right now, they have to beat Argentina if they want to qualify, but ......"
"At this point, Rehhagel has to make a choice!!"
The commentators routinely sighed.
ā¦ā¦ Yes, Rehhagel also understands that he needs to make a choice at this time.
Tough choice!
When he saw Demichelis knocking on the door of the Greek team like an angry beast, [Otto the Great] felt that his heart was about to stop beating, and he never imagined that the Argentine team would equalize the score in such a way - a way that he absolutely thought would not happen to the Greek team!!
High Balls?
How can it be a high-altitude ball?
The backline, which is almost 10 centimeters taller than the opponent on average, was not able to grab the first point in the corner kick defense?
Looking at the place where he was most proud, being pierced by the madman Lee, Rehhagel was furious!
Now what?
Offensive or defensive?
Rehhagel hesitated a little, the game went into the 60th minute, and if he wanted to do a desperate fight, there was still enough time...... However, in the face of an opponent like the madman Lee, even if he attacks it, can he really win a victory?
After much thought, Rehhagel decided to defend with all his might.
A draw, even if you pin your hopes on Nigeria's victory over the South Korean team, at least there is hope, but if you attack and fight, maybe you will die under the strong offensive of the Argentine team!
on the field.
The Greek team did not see the manager's tactical adjustments, so they honestly continued to defend...... [Otto the Great] Rehhagel felt that there was no problem with his tactical thinking, but after ten minutes, he had to change his mind............ 67th minute.
Sergio Aguero relied on his personal ability on the right flank, connecting two people and forcing a high cross, and Greek centre-back Kirjax cleared the ball with a header to push the ball off the line...... Argentina won another corner!
Thinking of the previous corner kick equaliser, the Argentine fans and neutral fans in the stands began to get excited again, and they hoped that the Argentine team would be able to create a miracle again by relying on this corner kick!
The Greek fans are also frantically cheering for their players, reminding them not to make mistakes, and they also believe that as long as they don't make mistakes like they did ten minutes ago, with the height and strength of the Greek players, it shouldn't be difficult to defend corners!
on the field.
Riquelme stands in the corner area, ready to take a corner.
Messi once again ran forward to answer and pretended to be a tactical corner, but this time, the Greek team sent a defender to defend Messi, and more people focused their attention on the penalty area to prevent Riquelme from taking the ball by surprise again...... Corners.
Thinking of the tactical set-up of the 'head' in the dressing room to demand more high-altitude balls, Riquelme instinctively wanted to hoist the ball into the penalty area...... However, seeing the dense Greek forest in the penalty area, every Argentine attacking player is crowded with Greek defenders...... He couldn't help but hesitate again...... "No, if you hang it directly like this, you will definitely not get a chance, what should I do?" ā
Riquelme's eyes lit up when he saw Messi running over.
The whistle blew and he made free throws.
He gently gave the ball back to Messi.
Messi, who came up, was a little stunned, shouldn't it...... According to the tactical arrangement of the 'leader', this ball should not be given to me...... Although he was a little stunned in an instant, his excellent ball sense and adaptability still allowed Messi to receive the football easily!
In the penalty area of the Greek team, the defenders looked at it and shouted in unison!!
The Argentines were too cunning, and this time it was not a high ball, but a tactical corner...... Seeing that Messi, the opponent's number one threat, had steadily obtained the football in the danger area, the players of the Greek team immediately burned their butts, and immediately two or three people pounced on it to defend it!
Messi was about to break through, and in his spare eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Riquelme beckoning for the ball!
Without the slightest hesitation, Messi passes!
And Riquelme didn't stop the ball, and it was a pass to the rolling football!
This time, it's finally a high ball again.
The football was hoisted high into the penalty area of the Greek team, with a fast speed and a whirl!
At this time, several defenders who pounced on Messi completely lost their defensive positions and wanted to turn back into the box to defend other dangerous people...... But how can a human leg outrun a soccer ball flying in the sky?
The Greek team's originally dense defensive system was instantly chaotic!
The crowd in the penalty area was sensational, and all the players jumped high!!
Among these countless heads, a lump of black hair is the most dazzling! It shook off the bewitching light, drove the raindrops, drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then slammed against the flying football...... Bang!
Swish!!
Two voices sounded at the same time, and the football went into the net!
It was Martin Demichelis who scored the goal with a successful header!!
This time, Greece's goalkeeper Zorvas had time to blink...... However, it was just a blink of an eye, and the fast ball speed and the slightly misty drizzle made it impossible for him to make any effective saves
