Chapter 894 This Is the Rhythm of Collapse
In fact, Zhuo Yang felt Messi's nervousness just now when they shook hands and picked the side of the coin. It's not that he is good at observing words and expressions, and Messi's expression didn't show anything, but Zhuoyang did feel that he was very familiar with him.
Messi in the national team is much more nervous than in Barcelona. He enjoys the joy of football in Barcelona, but in Argentina it is more of a responsibility and puts more pressure on himself. There is no way, football is everything to Messi, the world's expectations for him are too high, and it is difficult to surpass the benchmark set by his predecessors, but it is impossible for boss Mei not to surpass, and failure to surpass is failure.
Zhuo Yang is also under pressure, and the Chinese people also have expectations for Zhuo Yang, but unlike Messi, Zhuo Yang himself is the expectation itself. No matter what he does, he is making history. He is unprecedented for Chinese football. Therefore, Chinese fans' love for Zhuo Yang is more pure and has no utilitarianism. Since he announced his return in 2008, Chinese fans have been unconditional.
Therefore, Zhuoyang's pressure is not as great as Messi's. Football is not his only thing. His ability to withstand pressure is also stronger than Messi's.
Zhuoyang's header is also better than Messi.
In the 4th minute, Hao Junmin took a free kick on the left side of the midfield and directly lobbed it into the penalty area. Boss Mei accidentally ran together with Zhuo Yang. He could only rely on his 168cm height to forcefully take off and compete with Zhuo Yang for the top.
Zhuo Yang rolled his eyes at him in the air before shaking his head and attacking the goal. Boss Mei just did his best to obey fate, but Argentine goalkeeper Sergio Romero changed his destiny and miraculously saved Zhuoyang's guaranteed header from the dead corner.
Zhuo Yang couldn't believe his eyes, he was ready to celebrate. Messi feels like he is surviving a disaster.
Looking at the history of Argentine football, it seems that only the goalkeeper has not been among the best in the world. Having won the World Cup twice, Ferrol in 1978 and Pompidou in 1986 could only be regarded as the top players in football at that time.
The mythical 1990 Goyechea was indeed at his peak that year. He saved several opponents on penalty kicks, but he was very mediocre after that.
To put it into detail, perhaps only Carlos Roa is the closest to the top from a technical level, but the fact that he has never been favored by a wealthy club in his career also shows that he is close but has not yet reached it. As for Roa rejecting Manchester United because of his religious beliefs, this is a bit nonsense. There are many more pious people in the Manchester United team than him.
The current situation of Argentina's goalkeepers is also the same. Those with some strength are either domestic or playing as substitutes in the five major leagues. The 27-year-old Romero is a substitute for Monaco in Ligue 1. In the past 13-14 season, he only played 3 times.
Romero was Maradona's main force in South Africa four years ago. To be honest, his performance was a bit disappointing, so this year coach Savilla insisted on using him as the number one.
It has also endured a lot of pressure from public opinion. The media is more optimistic about Manchester City's substitute goalkeeper Caballero. Manchester City looks pretty good after all, doesn't it?
Before the World Cup, the media recognized that goalkeeper is Argentina's weakest link now.
In the first round of the group stage, Romero let Ibisevic hit him in the crotch, and was denounced by the Afghan media. As a result, Romero has saved his character until now. This ball saved Zhuo Yang and almost doubted his life.
There was nothing wrong with Zhuoyang's shot. His header was already very powerful. It was definitely not Romero's responsibility that the ball went in. Of course, it won’t be Boss Mei’s fault. Team Mei has never been the one to do such rough work. You can’t blame the ducks for not being able to fly in order to get the ducks on the shelf.
It is the responsibility of young brother Mascherano and center back Ezequiel Garay. One of them is responsible for following Zhuoyang throughout the field, and the other is responsible for marking Zhuoyang in the middle near the penalty area. As a result, they both fell off their posts inadvertently. .
Today’s game is the 30-year-old Mascherano’s 100th national team game. This statistic is amazing. In the history of Argentina, only Zanetti, Ayala and Simeone have surpassed Marco Polo, Maradona and Batty. Even fierce men like Stutta have not reached his level.
Marco Polo was transformed into a central defender in Barcelona by Guardiola and the late Vilanova, but in the national team, he is still the unshakable number one defensive midfielder.
In order to allow Ma Ma to concentrate on guarding against Zhuo Yang today, coach Savilla made adjustments to the lineup, with Fernando Gago starting in place of the talkative Biglia. Ga Ge comes to play the defensive midfielder, and Xiao Ma Ge comes to play Zhuo Yang.
Before setting off, his teammates all gave Ma Ma an encouraging yet sympathetic look.
In the summer when Zhuoyang joined in 2011, two Argentines left Real Madrid, namely Gago and Garay. The departure of the 'Elegant Prince' Gago is a pity. Real Madrid once had very high expectations for him, but almost no one noticed Garay's departure because he was a pure substitute for three years.
In fact, Garay is still very capable. He did not play well in Real Madrid. This is due to style reasons and also due to injuries. After he moved to Benfica, he suddenly transformed and became known as the "Iron Guard" with his second youth. Real Madrid somewhat regrets it. Now Pepe is a bit depressed and Varane still owes a little. It would be better if Garay is still there.
Ferguson took a fancy to Garay, and he was originally very willing to defect to the Red Devils, but Manchester United's failure to qualify for the European war next season made Garay back down. Therefore, Zhuoyang still doesn't know whether the 27-year-old central defender, who is 190cm tall, can be his teammate in the new season.
But Angel Di Maria patted Sir Alex's chest and assured Zhuoyang that he would definitely go to Manchester United in the new season. Although Angel Di likes to be unpredictable all day long, he still speaks like a man and is quite reliable. In fact, Angel Di's transfer is already under negotiation. Manchester United has packaged him and Zhuoyang to discuss with Real Madrid.
Angel Di is a bad guy, he caught Ren Hang and bullied him.
Today, the Chinese team's lineup only made slight adjustments in the midfield and frontcourt. Huang Bowen and Zheng Zhi partnered with double midfielders, Hao Junmin moved to the wing, Wu Lei was at the front, Zhuo Yang, Zhang Xizhe, Wang Dalei, Zhang Chendong, Zhang Linpeng , Meifang.
Ren Hang continues to be the left back, opposite him is the wilting Di Maria.
In the 11th minute, after Angel Di attacked this side three times in a row, Ren Hang finally couldn't hold it anymore. He was deceived by Angel Di's feint, and when he turned around and pounced, he realized that this dog was cutting inside.
Huang Bowen, who returned to defense, followed Angel Di, but couldn't get a chance to make a move and watched him volley in the ribs.
The football arced straight into the far corner, and Argentina led 1:0.
Facing a big BOSS in football like Argentina, falling behind was expected. Although the goal was conceded a bit early, the Chinese team could still maintain its composure at this time.
Angel Dee was obviously racing at the beginning, but the Chinese team could not change the focus of defense because of him. They could only continue to rely on Ren Hang, because Argentina is not the Chinese team, and each of them may rush at any time. Di Maria is a high-speed car, and if Messi, the great killer, becomes a high-speed train, he will be a high-speed train.
Once angels fall, they are worse than demons and will ooze pus.
After the restart, just one minute later, Angel Di drove straight in from the wing again, frustrating Ren Hang. It's still the same old routine. He deceives with a fake move and then cuts inside into the penalty area, crushing him with strength.
This time it was Zheng Zhi who came to attack, but he was also defeated in front of Angel Di. The wrecking ball failed, but he kicked Angel Di down in the penalty area.
The whistle blows, penalty kick.
Zhuo Yang has a penalty kick bug skill, but Boss Mei is the best person today to solve it, no one.
Seeing Messi heading towards the white spot with confidence, all Chinese people, including Zhuo Yang, were beating drums in their hearts: Once the penalty is scored, losing the ball continuously in a short period of time is the rhythm of collapse!
