World Cup of Great Powers

Chapter 60 Riquelme VS Zhang Xiaorui

Under the line referee's explanation, the referee finally understood what happened just now.

He circled the center of his finger and blew the whistle in his mouth, indicating that the goal was valid.

This time, the Argentines were not happy.

"Liars! This is a group of liars from Asia!"

"How can you kick a corner like that? It's obviously against fairness!"

"If you want to kick, just kick it openly. What's such a small trick? Sneak attack?"

"Referee, why do you score? I ask them to give a heavy penalty!"

No matter how the Argentine players yelled.

The referee's penalty has taken effect and the game has to continue.

1:1.

The two sides returned to the same starting line.

The score was tied, and the Argentine quit completely!
The Argentine coach replaced two players in a row and stepped up his attack again.

Jianlibao players fight and retreat.

Still mainly playing defensive counterattacks.

And dragging the game into a penalty shootout is also beneficial to Jianlibao.

Jianlibao, who has experience in a penalty shootout, is really not afraid of the opponent in this respect!

Seeing the Argentines coming and going, Zhu Guanghu couldn't help but praise him again and again.

"Even though we played so many games in Brazil, the talent of this South American player cannot be learned!"

"Coach Zhu, don't forget that most of the games we played in the past two years were teaching matches, and they were just playing with us! If it's serious, let's not talk about Brazil and Argentina, it's Paraguay, and we may not be able to play Uruguay."

Hearing Zeng Zheng's summary, Li Hui and Liu Zhicai on the side also nodded repeatedly.

"Argentina's No. 8 is really good at handling the ball! His organizational skills are also good, and it is a bit difficult for Tie Zi to defend him alone."

Zeng Zheng looked up, and it was Riquelme that Zhu Guanghu was talking about.

This guy has scored three goals in this Toulon Cup, and is tied for the top spot with Zhang Xiaorui and Li Jinyu.

However, Zhang Xiaorui still had two assists, Riquelme had one, and Dayu had none.

Therefore, if the three want to earn the best Toulon Cup, it depends not only on whether they score in the next game, but also on which team the final champion belongs to.

Not only Jianlibao was talking about the players on the field, but the assistant coach in Argentina was even more frowning.

"Is that No. 11 really Chinese? Why does it feel like I'm playing against a Brazilian player?"

"Nickname? What nickname?"

"Chinese Maradona? Tsk tsk tsk. It seems to be so interesting."

"No, Samoel alone is not enough, we have to increase our defensive strength."

The coaches of both sides talked a lot, and the players on the field were also fighting vigorously.

In the last 10 minutes or less, the two teams, who were already familiar with their respective styles of play, saw each other's moves and fought back and forth.

When the kick was exciting, the fans in the stands also screamed.

Here Li Jiangang blocked the ball in front of the goal line with a diving save, and Jianlibao found a backcourt with a big kick over there. Deadly headbutt.

At the end of the game, the head coaches of both sides played all the substitution cards in their hands.

Zeng Zheng first replaced the immobile Li Jinyu with Sun Zhi, and then replaced the scoring hero Zhang Ran with Hao Wei.

Under the tactic of retreating wing guards, Zeng Zheng just didn't change a defender.

Or rather.

This is a youth team game in itself.

How can there be so many utilitarian ideas?

What we fight for is vitality and offense!

Anyway, it's a draw now, so of course we have to win a chance at the last moment!

After the quotas for substitutions on both sides were exhausted, the coaches of both sides did not speak too much, and completely handed over the game to the players on the field.

In the 79th minute, Riquelme received the ball in front of Jianlibao's penalty area, walked around to avoid the two men's upswing, and then took the ball to Luciano Galetti who was in the bottom.

The latter passed the ball and was cleared out of the penalty area by the brave Li Weifeng in the penalty area.

Then Jianlibao counterattacked, and the ball came to Zhang Xiaorui without hesitation.

Zhang Heizi dodged from left to right, passed two people in a row and rushed into the penalty area with the ball.

After pretending to pass the ball, he accelerated diagonally, followed up with a kick, and was blocked by Samoel's sliding tackle.

In the 83rd minute, Riquelme slanted into Jianlibao's penalty area, and the ball was hugged by Li Jian who was attacking before Pedro caught up.

Two minutes later, Zhang Xiaorui's cross from a 2-degree angle was resolved by Gary Buel's header.

Gradually, the players on both sides forgot the game time.

Under the organization of his own core midfielder, he launched waves of attacks on the opponent's positions.

The two classic attacking midfielders showed their ball control and organizational skills to the fullest.

As soon as the feet on this side finished playing the violin, the two legs on the other side began to play a passionate rock and roll.

Scouts in the stands are constantly writing and drawing in their notebooks.

Compare the age, height, weight, nationality, and experience of the two people one by one.

In the end, they found that no one seemed to be easily "eaten" by them.

Finally, a scout from League One closed his notebook and sighed.

Seeing this, the colleagues on the side hurriedly asked.

"Hey, these two people will either go to Manchester United or Real Madrid in the future. How can our small club earn money?"

Yes, the players who can play in the Toulon Cup final, how bad can their future development be?

At this moment, Argentina once again attacked the area 30 meters in front of Jianlibao's penalty area.

Riquelme shook Tao Wei away, and just when he saw the gap and wanted to move to the side with a big foot, Li Tie, who was looking at the opportunity, suddenly rushed over and put a shovel.

"Good iron!"

Seeing Riquelme's long pass being blocked by Li Tie's outstretched foot, even Zeng Zheng on the sidelines couldn't help shouting hello.

Hao Wei on the side is full of energy.

Seeing the ball flying towards him, he immediately went up to meet it.

Catch the ball, stop the ball, turn around, look up, observe
The whole set of movements was smooth and flowing, and it only took a second before he kicked up and passed the ball.

Looking at the ball flying in the air and the empty middle circle, the Argentine coach let out a roar.

"Quickly return to defense!!!"

Just now almost all the Argentine players pressed to the frontcourt.

No one expected that Riquelme, who has always been steady with the ball, would be suddenly intercepted, and no one expected that the Chinese player would make a long pass so quickly.

At this moment, a red figure stood out.

Before the ball landed, he stretched out a kick and kicked the ball far away, and then sprinted forward again.

"Dazhi, run, Dazhi!"

"Come on, Dazhi!"

"Come on!!!"

Sun Zhi's 11-meter speed is 3 seconds, the fastest in Jianlibao's team.

His stature just crossed the center line, and the fourth official on the sidelines just held up an electronic board showing "2".

But no one cared how long the stoppage time in the second half was. Everyone was nervously staring at the empty half of Argentina and Sun Zhi's figure running with the ball.

Bisari has slowly retreated from the top of the arc of the penalty area to the penalty area, because Sun Zhi has not yet fully formed a single-handedly.

Gary Buel and Facundo Quiroga are desperately catching up.

If they are lucky, at least one of them can block Sun Zhi in front of the penalty area.

After crossing the middle circle, Sun Zhi only touched the ball four times with his feet before dribbling into the opponent's penalty area.
