Chapter 529: France Out

[Dragon Country Sports News: 12:0! Argentina bloodied the South Korean team with 12 goals! Aguero's hat trick, Messi's five sons denko! But after the game, many media, including BBC, The Times and other media, selected Chen Mo as the MVP of the game! 】

[Torino Sports News: The Koreans continue to trumpet the World Cup semi-finals they stole in 02, but the players they are there don't even dare to look Chen Mo in the eyes on the field! (Image)】

[Argentine Ole interviewed Maradona: "Our forward line completely destroyed the South Korean team in this game, but Chen Mo's MVP deserved it. The power, the speed, the vision, the footwork, all that, he's more powerful than any player I've ever seen in my life.

Yes, any player. What? Target? Obviously, we're here to win the championship, and if you don't dare to make bold statements when you have both Leo and Chen Mo on your team, then I can only say that you are a coward.

Where is the number 10 jersey going to be? This was their childhood agreement. Haha, that sounds crazy, right, two ten-year-old kids were there discussing who Argentina's No. 10 jersey belonged to, and if anyone heard them at the time, they would have thought that these two kids didn't know the sky, but it turned out.

It's not the number 10 shirt that gives them meaning, it's the number 10 that gives Argentina a new legend, and I think it's all wonderful. ”】

[Mourinho was interviewed: "Messi is the strongest knife in the world, his performance in the Champions League in the past two years is seen by everyone, at any time, as long as you give him a chance to play one-on-one with the defender, then you are finished.]

But Chen Mo is of more significance to this Argentina team, Argentina is an offensive football that plays the main possession, and for the team that plays offensive football, the midfield is very important, there is no midfield to feed the striker, even if you send five strikers on the front line, you will be beaten by the opponent. He is the engine of this Argentina. ”】

[Argentine legend Crespo was interviewed: "His statistics are luxurious, but his dominance on the field is more exaggerated than the statistics, and if you have been teammates with him, you will know what he means to our national team. Or rather, he is the decisive factor in the domination of terror that our national team has in these two World Cups. ”】

The impact of the World Cup is very large, and Argentina is also in the spotlight.

There is no doubt that after the 12-0 bloodbath of the South Korean team, fans and football media around the world are boiling.

Football media and football celebrities around the world are all kinds of fancy touting Argentina, and every day different news is overwhelming.

This kind of scene, like Otamendi, a little buddy who played in the World Cup for the first time, was naturally so excited that he couldn't sleep, and the training was all training with dark circles under his eyes, but for an old oilman like Chen Mo, he didn't feel much anymore.

How to describe it, it feels a little like it.

When I rushed for the first time at the age of fifteen or sixteen, I felt so cool that I wanted to roll my eyes, but when I rushed again in my thirties, it is estimated that I can continue to brush Douyin in the next second after I finish rushing.

After playing in the top flight for six years, reaching four Champions League finals and winning three Champions League titles, Chen Mo's excitement threshold is now very high.

Kick South Korea, little meaning.

But what's interesting is that because they weren't too excited, after the game, the Longguo media put aside their desperate efforts to advocate [Chen Mo has the wind of a general] [Those who have thunder in their chests and face like a peaceful lake can worship the general] [Low-key is king].

Regarding these sycophant news, Chen Mo watched it very coolly, saying that he would come more, while Kaoru Yuechi and Klee both rolled their eyes frequently, indicating that the media in the Dragon Kingdom were embarrassed.

However, the news about Argentina's bloodbath in South Korea was dismissed by another story just a day later.

Italy was wiped out 2-3 by Slovakia.

As soon as the news came out, fans around the world were shocked again.

No way, it's a big upset.

FIFA divides all the national teams that enter the group stage of the World Cup into four tiers, and then selects one from each category.

In this group of Italy, Italy is the first echelon, New Zealand is the second echelon, Paraguay is the third echelon, and Slovakia is the weakest fourth echelon.

Slovakia are the weakest team in Italy's group, and this year's Italian squad is nothing short of luxurious.

Goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.

Defenders Chiellini, Cannavaro, Borucci, Klich.

Midfielders De Rossi, Gattuso, Pirlo, Slovakia.

Forwards Iaquinta, Di Natale and others.

This squad can be said to be full of stars, and there is not a single star on the Slovak side who can be named.

In this case, many Italian fans thought that Italy would win before the start of the game, and the real worries were Paraguay and New Zealand in the same group.

But no one expected that Italy would lose.

It collapsed, the Italian fans collapsed directly.

However, Italy's big melon is not over yet, and another super super big melon is coming up again.

Spain lost to Switzerland

If Italy's loss was a shock to Italian fans, then Spain's loss to Switzerland was a shock to the whole world.

The biggest favourites to win this World Cup are not Argentina, but Spain.

This Spain is Real Madrid + Barcelona, and then remove Messi.

Goalkeeper Casillas, defender Ramos, Pik Pujol Marchena, striker Villators Matapedro Anderson.

Since the beginning of '07, the Spanish national team has been unbeaten in 35 games, won the European Championship, and won all the qualifiers.

But now Spain has lost.

And it was lost to Sweden!

Now the atmosphere of the Spanish fan zone.

The atmosphere in the Argentine fan zone is somewhat similar to that after losing to Saudi Arabia in '22.

It's not just the die-hard Spanish fans who are most uncomfortable, though.

There is also a group of "fans" who have only temporarily joined the Spanish camp this year.

Many people who don't like Messi and Chen Mo regard this World Cup as a World Cup that [breaks the illusion of Chen Mo and Messi's hype].

They want Spain to beat Argentina without Messi.

In this way, it can not only prove that Messi is a system player, and he won the Champions League and the Golden Ball Award with Habaibu's thigh, but also proves that Habaibu does not need Messi and can kill Chen Mo.

But the funny thing is that after not getting what they wanted, they jumped back again and ran to mock Spain for not having the strength.

The outside world was boiling, and Chen Mo didn't pay much attention to these things.

Five days after playing for South Korea, he travelled to the Durban Stadium in Durban City to face Nigeria.

Nigeria are in the third tier of Argentina's group, and the strength shown in the qualifiers is still below South Korea.

There is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, but in order to make some rotations in the third group stage and let more substitute players play to find their feelings, Chen Mo still played very seriously in this game.

In the first half, Argentina relied on his burst from the top of the arc and Messi's wide cut inside to set the score at 2-0.

Not long after the start of the second half, Di Maria broke through on the left flank, and Messi completed the goal after the bottom triangle backball.

Three to zero.

There is no suspense about the outcome of the victory, in the cheers of the fans, in the 77th minute of the game, Chen Mo and Xiao Ma were replaced by Veron and Cambiaso, and with the end of this game, Argentina, which won both games, has also locked up the group qualification.

I was very happy, and after returning to the hotel, I was rewarded by Kaoru Tsukichi and Klee in black and white, but the day after Chen Mo finished the game, bad news also came.

France lost 0:1 to South Korea.

Coupled with the previous draw with Nigeria, the French team now has 1 point from 1 draw and 1 loss, and has already confirmed its exit from the group stage.

The French team is out, Chen Mo doesn't care too much, he doesn't have any special feelings for France, but his big brother Henry is in the French team.

And after this game, Henry, who is 34 years old this year, also had red eyes at the post-match press conference, announcing that he would retire from the French national team for 13 years after this World Cup.

Thirteen years, the youth has become middle-aged, the record of 123 national team appearances ranks second in the history of the French team, and the 51 goals rank first in the history of the French team.

There is no doubt that the moment Henry announced his retirement from the national team, many fans understood that their youth may have come to an end.

And sitting in front of the hotel TV and watching the picture of Henry tearfully announcing his withdrawal, Chen Mo's face was also a little emotional, but

After six or seven years, after the retirement of Pep Guardiola, Bergkamp, Crespo and others, he is also used to it.

What's more.

Their last opponent in Argentina's group stage is France.

.

June 23, 6:30 p.m. South African time.

At the Johannesburg Football City Stadium, which has a capacity of 100,000 people, Argentina played France in the final round of Group B.

There is no doubt that when Chen Mo and Henry respectively wore the captain's armband and stood in front of the referee to toss coins, the fans and photographers at the scene went crazy.

Chen Mo has a good relationship with Henry, and everyone knows it.

Even, when he first arrived at Arsenal, it was Henry who integrated Chen Mo into the team, and now, the high-spirited, freshly dressed and angry gun king has grown old, and the young man who was still a little young has grown into a pole in the world.

is a very embarrassing scene, and some fans who are a little more emotional have even burst into tears.

In the context of the fans chanting the name of [Henry], after Chen Mo and Henry hugged, the game officially began.

Thierry Henry's final game for the national team is significant, but the world doesn't revolve around one person.

The French team, which has lost Zidane, Vieira, Makelele and other top stars, and is currently ranked last in the group, has no power to fight back in front of Argentina.

In fact, strictly speaking, this French team is not without stars.

In defence, there are good players such as Patrice Evra, Klich and Abidal, and in midfield are Chelsea's Malouda, former Arsenal player Diaby, Gourcuff and Scarface Ribery.

Up front is Thierry Henry, as well as Nicolas Anelka, who currently plays for Chelsea and will join Shanghai Shenhua next year.

The staffing is certainly not top-notch, but it's not bad either.

But the crux of the matter is that the infighting in this French team is very serious.

France is the largest country of immigrants in the world, and it is often difficult for the national teams of the countries of immigrants to be united, and this is also the case with Argentina.

It's just that Argentina is mainly a conflict between players, while France is a conflict between players and players, and there are also conflicts between players and coaches.

How to say it, how serious is the infighting in this French team, they lost to the national football team in the warm-up match

But at that time, after all, it was only a warm-up game, and if you lose, you will lose, and the contradiction has not completely exploded.

But with the defeat against South Korea in the last game, the team's main striker Anelka directly scolded the head coach Domenech at halftime, and Domenech exposed the matter, resulting in Anechal being expelled from the French Football Federation.

This incident caused the displeasure of all the French players.

Two days ago, Patrice Evra got into a fight with the strength and conditioning coach in a public training session watched by fans, and then Evra led the team to strike in front of reporters and fans.

And that's not all.

When the players were about to leave the field, coach Domenech chased into the bus and read it out in front of all reporters ten minutes later with a [statement signed by all the French players], accusing the French Football Federation of the top management for failing to protect the players of the national team.

openly bombarded the Football Association, and the Football Association was not easy to provoke, and issued a document to fight back, and the result was that the contradictions deepened.

Before the start of this match with Argentina, Evra, Henry and others all said that they would make everything that happened in the World Cup public after returning home.

The reason for everything - manager Domenech panicked and begged Henry to keep a low profile when they returned home and not tell the truth, but it didn't help.

It was French President Nicolas Sarkozy who personally met with Henry before the matter was finally pressed.

The infighting can only be quelled when the president of the country comes forward, and the infighting of the French team is terrifying, which can be imagined.

Of course, the development of events is just at the stage of "Domenech begging the players not to tell the truth", but there is no doubt that the first two games are one loss and one draw, and this game is going to play the strongest Argentina, coupled with various off-field factors, the French players who know that they have no hope of qualifying have long been unwilling to fight.

In the twenty-third minute of the first half, Chen Mo won the ball in the midfield and a fried croquette passed the marked Diaby.

It stands to reason that any team in the world now encounters him Chen Mo, it is to focus on defending the middle, that is to say, the moment of Diaby, the two French fullbacks Malouda and Ribery under the 442 system should be adducted to fill the position.

However, no.

No one cares about Chen Mo, who is advancing at high speed in the middle with the ball alone after passing Diaby.

Confused.

The fans were confused.

Not to mention that the fans were confused, in fact, Chen Mo was a little confused, when he ran wildly, he felt no pressure at all, and he even thought that he had fallen into the trap of the French team, until he hit the crossbar with a long shot at the top of the arc, he was sure that it was not a trap!

It's just that the players of the French team don't have much fighting spirit.

At the end of the first half, Argentina had a two-goal lead, and finally, in the applause of the fans, in the context of Chen Mo and Henry's exchange of jerseys, the score was fixed at 4:0.

Argentina won all three games to advance, while France, as the runner-up of the last World Cup, lost two and drew one, and exited the group stage.
