Chapter 68 Diego Is Like Poetry, Messi Is Like Prose

Zhu Ting had fled long ago and disappeared without a trace. Although he was not arrested by the police and was only exposed by "The Sun", his reputation was completely ruined and he would not be able to keep it until the end of the year. But now he is no longer the Chinese national football team, and no one can care about him no matter what.

Such news can only stir up some trouble that day. In the past, fans may have cared about Zhu Ting's tidbits, but everyone cares more about the Chinese team's knockout opponents. So the news about Zhu Ting that day quickly faded away.

China is no longer a country that relies on gossip news. There are more discussions about the Chinese team on the Internet.

"If we get first place in the group, should we face the first place in Group A?"

"Who is ranked first in Group A is not sure yet. Russia and Uruguay, the host country and Uruguay are not easy to play."

"Let's play Uruguay. Russia is the host after all. They have won two consecutive games. They are not weak. And they still have the advantage of being the host. It is better to play Uruguay."

"You have the wrong idea! The key is to take first place in the group and then go to the bottom half! I feel that the bottom half is safer, and there is a higher probability that the strong teams will be in the top half."

"Hey, just do whatever you want. Doesn't winning the championship mean defeating all your opponents?"

"And we have only played two rounds now, and no one knows what will happen next. Maybe until the end of the third round, these speculations will be meaningless."

After the second round, many teams were eliminated. For example, both Iran and Egypt in Group A said goodbye, and the Egyptian team with Egyptian Messi Salah could not escape the halo of the host.

Morocco in Group B cannot survive in the death group of Portugal, Spain and China. Spain has already fallen half off the cliff.

France ranks first in the group with a record of 6 points from 2 wins and a good qualifying situation. Denmark ranks second with 1 win, 1 draw and 4 points, basically locking in the qualifying spot. Australia and Peru currently have 1 draw, 1 loss and 2 losses respectively, ranking third and fourth in the group.

Croatia, with 2 wins and 6 points in Group D, has secured the promotion spot in advance. The qualifying situation for the remaining three teams is unclear. Among them, Argentina, which has attracted much attention, is on the verge of elimination. It must win all the remaining games and have a goal difference greater than Iceland in order to win by 4 Ranked second in the group in points and advanced to the next level.

Poor Messi, he once again encountered a desperate situation. Being able to reach the knockout round has become the most focused focus in the world. Compared with Dong Fangzhuo and Cristiano Ronaldo, he and his team did not perform well at all. The average fan originally thought that Argentina and Croatia could easily score points from Nigeria and Iceland. Unfortunately, after two rounds, the actual situation was not the case.

Argentina and Spain have both encountered similar situations. Maybe they will have to go home after the group stage.

Because of another poor performance, Argentina's famous Batistuta stood up and blasted Argentina and Messi.

Batistuta, who has always been modest and taciturn, becomes talkative when it comes to the national team. The God of War said angrily in an interview with "Ole Daily":

"One year, and another, and another."

"The national team always sets tactics around Messi, but the cruel fact tells us that Argentina is not Barcelona. Even if we have won the Copa America now, if we want to go further in the World Cup, we must change things. What."

"Messi is really not Maradona!"

"He's not the best player in Argentina's history and he can't do everything Diego did."

"Diego is the best football player of all time. Diego represented Argentina in many ways, not just football, with rare charisma, talent and creativity. Even if Messi is technically very good and may even be better, he cannot surpass Diego. He does not have the charisma of Diego. Diego can command the attention of a whole stadium and I've played with him and I can tell you how decisive he is. "

"Diego is like poetry, Messi is like prose."

Barty said: "Compared with Diego, Messi cannot let people enter the dreamlike dimension of Diego.

Even if he trains hard every hour every day, he can't reach Maradona's state. Of course, it's not just him, no one can reach it. Many people have doubted Messi in the past, but there will no longer be such a debate. From a technical point of view, Messi is perfect and he has scored more goals than anyone else. But to me, he is not Diego and may never be as good as Diego. "

"That's why he can't lead Argentina out of the quagmire now."

"I don't deny his contribution in leading the team to the America's Cup, but I can't deny the contribution of Di Maria, Aguero and Higuain."

It seems that Batistuta believes that the reason Argentina failed to win in the World Cup group stage is because of Messi.

"Many people say that Argentina without Messi is nothing. Because without Messi, Argentina is even worse. Just look at the result of last year's difficult qualifying for the World Cup qualifiers."

"But, is the national team with Messi strong? This is just a habit. If other players leave Messi, they will no longer know how to play, because everyone relies on Messi. Why? Just because of all your tactics They all play around Messi, so no one knows how to play football! If there is a change over time, everything will be fine."

"pity……"

Batistuta still saw no hope because it was too late.

Although there is still one group match left to play, Batistuta is quite pessimistic.

"I think Argentina can still win the last game,"

"But even if they advance, they won't be able to move on in the knockout rounds."

"Football cannot rely solely on luck, but also on strength. Although luck is also a part of strength, you must have strength before you have luck."

"Let's think about the 2022 World Cup in China. That's more realistic."

"Spain is the same, they have no chance. The champion this year should be between France and China."

Before the group stage ended, Batistuta started predicting the championship.

In the past, Maradona would stand up and support Messi, but this time he will not help Messi. Ever since Messi fans scolded Maradona, Maradona is more disgusted than anyone else.

"Although I hope Argentina can win more,"

"But I really don't have any hope anymore."

"It is said that it is easier to win the championship if you stumble in the group stage, but this is not called stumble for us..."

"I have been waiting for 20 years, but I have never waited for a final. I am more and more disappointed every year..."
