There is a belief called football

Chapter 645 Fighting Argentina ([-])

After Messi broke through with the ball at the front point, he dunked lightly and passed Qi Bing. At this time, Pastore understood, and he thrust in front of Wei Xiao.

"Damn it", Wei Xiao thought to himself, in this way, he could not see Messi's footwork for passing the ball.

Zhou Dun was already aware of the opponent's plot, "Wei Xiao pay attention to his back."

When the ball suddenly flew out of Pastore's head, Wei Xiao had already run over it. He stretched out his foot to reach it, but of course he didn't reach it. This is the effect Martino wanted.

Fortunately, Zhou Dun reacted in advance. When Higuain shot, Zhou Dun stretched out his foot and blocked the ball.

But this attack scared the players of the Chinese team into a cold sweat. If the boss Zhou Dun was not so good, Higuain would have scored a one-handed goal.

"Wei Xiao, what did you do? How did you run past?" Qi led asked.

Qi Rate and Wei Xiao stood in different places, and Pastore blocked Wei Xiao's sight, but Qi Rate could see Messi's pass.

Wei Xiao didn't explain, just made an apologetic gesture.

Qi rate gave a thumbs up, saying it's okay.

In fact, when Pastore played, both Stan and Queiroz felt that "Pastore" must be the attacking midfielder, because whether in Palermo or Paris, Pastore played the attacking midfielder.

He is a bit like the French "Gourcuff", or Pirlo, the size does not interfere with his scalpel pass.

But what I never expected was that his position was a bit weird.

"Stan, there seems to be something wrong, why Pastore seems to be a shadow striker."

Stan stroked his chin, "Look again".

Messi once again passed the ball from the wing. Messi's pass is like a satellite navigation, and it has reached the realm of pointing where to play.

His ball went over Pastore's head every time, and then fell quickly, and Pastore ran accurately again.

But this time Pastore did something even better, he rubbed a bit, this time Wei Xiao did not run past, but the ball suddenly flew past Wei Xiao, behind was Higuain, Wei Xiao was powerless.

At the critical moment, it was Zhou Dun again, and he ran towards the penalty area line.

"The ball went in",
Higuain's unmistakable shot hit the lower left corner of the goal, and the Chinese fans in front of the TV began to scold their parents.

But Jiayuan at the scene could see what the TV screen couldn't. He saw the assistant referee raising the flag.

"Higuain is offside," Jiayuan shouted excitedly.

"what"?
The Chinese fans, as if they were dying of thirst, saw a clear spring, and immediately turned up the sound of the TV to the maximum.

"Really offside",
Watching the slow-motion replay, it was so dangerous. Zhou Dun ran a few steps at the last moment, and it was these steps that made Higuain fall into the offside trap.

"It's so dangerous, thanks to Zhou Dun's god-like running position, otherwise Higuain would have taken the ball out of his bag," Jiayuan said.

There was nothing controversial about the goal, and the Argentine players could see it clearly. Martino was applauding. His tactics were very clever, and the effect looked good. If it weren't for Zhou Dun, Argentina would have already overtaken the score.

But Zhou Dun was alone after all, how could he rely on only one person for defense?Everyone on the planet knows Higuain's scoring ability. As long as there is another chance, Martino believes that his team will definitely be able to score.

But Stan will not let the same thing happen three times. He gestures for Wang Kong to defend Pastore. As long as Pastore is spelled out, it should be able to limit Argentina's cross.

Argentina passed the ball again, but this time it was switched to Ravitch's side. Stan felt nervous. If the ball missed, it would be Wei Xiao's defensive position, and Wei Xiao's defense was still worse than Zhou Dun's.

Lavitch's pass was a little low, and Wang Kong cleared the ball. Stan finally understood why Pastore could only move forward. Regardless of his height, he and Wang Kong competed for the header in the air, like a bamboo pole, and floated out at once.

To put it more simply - if you don't hit it, you can't hold it.

Seeing that Pastore was knocked out by Wang Kong, Martino became anxious again. He didn't expect that the tactic he came up with would be so easy to crack. Now he regrets those two chances just now.

That's right, for a top-level duel, one must seize the opportunity, and there may be so many opportunities every time.

Wang Kong solved the problem by himself, but after Wang Kong left, there was also a problem, that is, Stan's "two plus X" plan fell through.

And Messi's ability requires three people. It is difficult for two people to defend and take the initiative. After Wang Kong left, it became easy for Messi to cut inside and shoot.

*****
Messi's curved kick went straight to the back corner of the goal, and he jumped up without falling down. The fans at the scene broke out in a cold sweat.

Messi's long-range shot from outside the penalty area is like kicking a penalty kick. The accuracy is outrageous. The failure to score this time is an abnormal performance.

Some people may blame Wei Xiao and Qi Bing at this time, thinking that they are incompetent, but they are not, Messi is too strong, and the two of them are not capable enough to stare at Messi.

Defending someone like Messi not only requires speed, but more importantly, your football IQ must also keep up, so that you may guess a little bit what Messi wants to do.

Stan saw it, and it might be too late if it doesn't change. He made a gesture, which was the one agreed upon during the intermission.

After seeing the gesture, Li Qiao ran back and changed places with Qi Bing.

"My God, I didn't see it, Li Qiao ran back to the left back position," Jiayuan said.

"In this cup, Li Qiao has already played as a midfielder, and now Stan has placed him in the position of left back, so the purpose is very clear, which is to defend Messi."

"Although I was surprised, this should be the duel that everyone is looking forward to. I can only say, Stan, you really dare to play."

Also stunned were Argentina's bench.

Martino didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Stan's gourd, but he had a vague feeling that Stan had thought about it, not just a whim.

But this kind of tactical change is beyond the ability of a coach. He is a duel between two stars, so Martino didn't say anything, he could only watch quietly.

After Li Qiao ran over, the first thing he did was to explain clearly to Wei Xiao. It was very simple. Messi was handed over to Li Qiao, and Wei Xiao was in charge of Di Maria.

In fact, after Li Qiao withdrew, Messi was quite happy. He had wanted to PK with Li Qiao for a long time, and now the opportunity was just right, "Come on."

Messi greeted several midfield teammates. The pass was bigger. He wanted to PK with Li Qiao.

But Li Qiao didn't. He stuck to Messi, and the two ran forward shoulder to shoulder. The fans at the scene seemed to be watching the [-]-meter decisive battle, and started to cheer and shout.

"Li Qiao, Li Qiao",
"Messi, Messi",
The last one to touch the ball was Messi, and Messi stopped the moment he touched the ball. He tried this trick time and again, and he would definitely be able to throw the opponent out, otherwise it would not comply with Newton's first law (also known as the law of inertia).

But maybe there are three people in this world who can not follow "Newton's first law", Li Qiao, Messi, and Ronaldo.

Li Qiao staggered, but was not thrown out.

"Damn",
Messi has tried his best, but he still can't get rid of Li Qiao. Di Maria on the other side is even more embarrassed. Messi should pass the ball to him now, otherwise he will be offside if he runs again.

The final result is that Di Maria and Messi all stopped. We know that as long as they stop on the football field, the chance will be gone.

All goals are based on the basis of sports warfare, Martino saw the problem, everything is because Messi did not get rid of Li Qiao, "Li Qiao"! ! ! "It's Li Qiao again."

Jiayuan explained excitedly: "If anyone in this world can defend Messi, it must be Li Qiao."

With the decline of physical fitness, the possibility of Messi breaking through Li Qiao is getting smaller and smaller. Martino has no choice but to admit that Messi is really being watched to death, so he can only change players. No matter how good Li Qiao is, you are only one person.

In the 25th minute of the second half, Martino made a substitution, replacing Aguero, replacing Lavezzi, and KUN came on.

Aguero's absolute strength is not as good as Messi's, but the gap between the two will not be too large. Aguero stands on the left side after playing.

Argentina also shifted the focus of their attack to the left. Aguero is still very common in breaking through Chen Fei, and KUN has plenty of energy.

After Aguero got down to the bottom line, he dunked the ball with his left foot, dunked the ball to his right foot, and then poked it into the middle with his toe before Zhou Dun blocked it.

When Higuain arrives, so does Wei Xiao.

If Higuain stops the ball and shoots like before, he will definitely be blocked by the Chinese team again.

Extraordinary measures are used at extraordinary times, especially for a superstar like Higuain. When Wei Xiao blocked the ball in place, Higuain tapped with his heel. Wei Xiao blocked Higuain's shot. He did not expect Higuain to shoot with his heel.

The result can be imagined, because it was too sudden, the ball passed Wei Xiao, and the ball was scored.

1:1.

After equalizing the score, the Argentines were like crazy. The 23 members of the team hugged each other. They had suppressed it for too long. Their desire for the Hercules Cup had been suppressed for 4 years. At this moment, they released it.

Stan shook his head helplessly, guarding Messi, but not "Da Kong Yi" (Aguero's nickname).

After all, there are still too many talents in Argentina, which is also the biggest weakness of the Chinese team as they are not as good as their opponents.

After losing the ball, Stan is also ready to make a substitution. Zhang Yuning comes on and replaces Hao Junmin. Stan doesn't know the effect of this substitution, but the only thing Stan knows is that he can't sit still now.
