Chapter 160 The worst scene
(Khan, I almost didn't catch up. Dear friends, you can vote for the monthly vote after midnight. Can you let Erba know whether you have hope?)
"Do you want to go to the semi-final between Uruguay and Brazil?"
After training in the afternoon, Gago asked Messi gently with his head down.
"Aren't we going to organize a viewing together at night?"
"I mean go and see."
Faced with Messi's doubts, Gago blinked and suggested.
"That's not good!"
Xiao Tiaoshow was a little hesitant. You must know that Basile hoped that everyone would be in a closed state before the game and not contact anyone.
"Go and discuss with the coach, he will agree, if you hold back like this all day, you will get mentally ill."
Jia Ge excitedly went to discuss with Basile, but Basile rejected his proposal decisively.
"Fair, you have to know when this is. It's already the semi-finals. Can't you even bear these two days? After we win the championship, I'll let you play as long as you want, but these few days , don’t let me go anywhere except the competition.”
……
In the evening, in the conference room, Gago lay down on the table with a dejected face, all the laughter and jokes of the past, making those who didn't know think that he had suffered a lovelorn.It was Messi who laughed and explained why he asked Basile to go out to watch the game, so that the Argentine stars understood that this kid couldn't hold back.
"Young man, this concentration is not enough!"
Many elderly guys looked at Gago lying on the table and sighed.
At this time, Basile walked in, glanced at Gago, and gave Redondo beside him a look, and then walked to the front on his own.
"Let us take a good look at our opponents in the final today."
Basile's words were so arrogant. Before Mexico finished cleaning up, it began to pay attention to its opponents in the final.
"Fair, get up and watch the game. Look at the defense you will face in the final."
Redondo sat next to Gago, patted his head and said.
For this idol of his own, Jia Ge really didn't dare to play any petty temper, and looked up at the big screen honestly.
"I suddenly had a hunch that this would be a very intense game."
Caniggia sat beside Redondo and said in a low voice.
"Your feeling, it seems that you have to look carefully again."
Redondo knew that his friend's premonition was very accurate in all likelihood.
……
Facts have proved that this game can be said to be the worst game of this Copa America.
The lineups of the two sides were no different from the previous match. By this time, any tricks were useless, and they could only rely on their own strength to defeat their opponents in an upright manner.
Brazil has always been the favorite to win the championship, and Uruguay should not be underestimated. Recoba and Forlan's striker combination is also ranked first in European football. Coupled with Uruguay's traditional strong defense, this is really a battle between dragons and tigers. ah.
Just 10 minutes into the first half, Maicon broke the deadlock for Brazil.
The Samba Army instigated an offensive on the left, Baptista made a cross from the front of the penalty area, Love got the ball and leaned on the Uruguayan defender to break into the penalty area and hit Carlini with a shot before the goalkeeper.Maicon, who was plugged in at high speed, volleyed vigorously against the incoming ball, and the ball flew into the gate.
Brazil leads 1-0.
In this game, both sides were relatively open. Since they were old opponents, they entered the bayonet-like hand-to-hand combat from the very beginning.The fast offensive and defensive rhythm coupled with the unique gorgeous skills of South American players made all fans very happy to watch.
After leading by one goal, the Brazilian team did not turn conservative. Dunga directed the team to continue to attack from the sidelines. He wanted to end the battle in the first half and save some energy to prepare for the final.
But Uruguay is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the head coach Tabarez is also a well-known figure in South America.He gestured to both Recoba and Fran, expressing an all-out attack.
Although Uruguay has a tradition of defense, their offense has never been weak.At least in this country, there has never been a shortage of offensive stars. The current Forlan and Recoba, and the future Suarez are all versatile forwards with personal technical breakthroughs and shooting.
After Recoba and Forlan broke out with 12 points, Uruguay attacked Brazil for 10 minutes and finally equalized the score in stoppage time in the first half.
It was the exquisite cooperation between Recoba and Forlan, a free-kick tactic that was secretly learned from Argentina and modified to match their own characteristics.
Recoba's golden left foot rubbed a free kick with no arc but a particularly strong rotation. This ball Recoba hit the goal.However, he only asked to hit within the range of the goal frame, so Dhoni easily judged the path of the ball, and jumped up in time to take the ball off after bypassing the wall.
But the spin of the ball was beyond his expectation, which made him lose his grip. Forlan, who was ambushing on the side, made a timely supplementary shot and scored for Uruguay to equalize the score at the last moment of the first half.
But at this time, a bad news made Uruguay too late to celebrate. After a free kick, Recoba fell to the ground in pain, and Tabarez replaced him with Afreu with a livid face.He had expected this for a long time. Before participating in the competition, Recoba's injury was not completely healed. Tabarez originally didn't want him to play, but Recoba insisted on the competition.Coupled with such an important knockout match, Uruguay must rely on this Inter Milan star.
Although he was replaced in time when the overall situation was settled in the last game against Venezuela, he did not expect to escape today.
In the second half, without Recoba, Uruguay's offensive threat dropped by [-]%.Dunga, who saw the opportunity, asked the team to press again, saying that he was sick and dying!Any holding back at this time is cruel to oneself.
The unscrupulous Brazil's offense can be regarded as the word "beating the world". Only 5 minutes into the second half, they exceeded the score again.
With the same set-piece coordination, Robinho gave a curve ball into the penalty area, Baptista outflanked and shot from the middle, and the ball fell into the lower right corner of the gate.
Brazil 2-1 Uruguay!
At this time, something happened that forced the game to be interrupted. There was a small accident on the field, and one side of the lighting headlights went out.After consulting the captains of both sides, the referee decided to continue the game. This small accident interrupted the game for 13 minutes.
The stadium facilities in South America are completely incomparable with those in Europe. Regardless of this Copa America, Venezuela has lost a lot of face, from broken nets to lights out.It is estimated that South American Football Confederation will not hand over the Copa America to Venezuela in the future. Not only will they be ashamed, but the prestige of the Confederation will also plummet.
But this accident gave Tabarez time to adjust his tactics. He took out the tactical board on the sidelines and quickly explained the final arrangement to the players. At the same time, he replaced a defender with a striker and prepared for the final fight.
After the game restarted, Uruguay, guided by Tabarez, launched the final desperate attack.But Dunga became conservative at this time. After all, he was born as a defensive player and thought about safety.After leading by one goal, he commanded the team to retreat and prepare to pass Uruguay's three-axes, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.
But what he didn't expect was that Uruguay's three-axes abruptly split what he thought was a solid defense. After Recoba went off the field, Fran showed the value of a star.
The Uruguayan team launched a quick attack from the left. No. 5 Garcia made a pass from the bottom. Fran headed the ball under the attack of the two defenders. Afterwards, Afreu, who came on as the substitute Recoba, shoveled the ball from the bottom. It bounced off the post and bounced off Donnie's body into the net.
Uruguay 2-2 equalized the score again!
"Fuck!"
Seeing this scene, Dunga smashed the bottle of water in his hand to the ground, and stepped on it twice with his foot.Then, after the assistant coach's reminder, he quickly made a substitution.This change is two, and now it is Brazil who is ready to fight, and no one wants to enter a brutal penalty shootout.There is no overtime in the Copa America.
Dunga did even better, replacing all the two defensive midfielders, and the four frontcourt forwards bombarded Uruguay indiscriminately in the final time.
However, Uruguay, who retreated across the board, managed to keep the tie until the end. The two teams had to enter a brutal penalty shootout. This was the first penalty shootout in this Copa America.
This situation was obviously not expected by the head coaches of the two teams. They hurried to the field to communicate with the players and prepare for the penalty kick.
In the penalty shootout, the Brazilian team first punished Uruguay and defended first.
Brazil's first appearance was the only big name Robinho, who easily tricked Carlini into the lower left corner with a feint.Robinho yelled after scoring a goal. At this point, he had to use such an action to vent his tension.
Uruguay's first appearance is of course a big name, Diego - Forlan, but he did not help the team open the scoring.Forlan hit the center of the goal with a penalty kick, Dhoni fell to the left but miraculously hooked the ball with his feet.
"Damn it, the fuck can come out."
After Dhoni blocked Forlan's penalty kick, Gago couldn't help cursing secretly. If possible, he would rather play Uruguay in the final. After all, Brazil is still stronger in terms of strength, and it will be very difficult to beat him.
In the next second and third penalty kicks, both sides withstood the pressure and scored.
In the crucial fourth penalty kick, Brazil made a mistake. Alfonso used a little more force to make the angle more tricky, and it bounced off the goal post.
The two sides once again stood at the same starting point.
"it is good!"
When Alfonso almost cried at the camera, the Argentine stars cheered loudly.
At the end of the fifth penalty, the players on both sides once again withstood the pressure and took the penalty. In this case, they had to take a more cruel "sudden death penalty".
Whoever makes a mistake first is out!
Menegaso, who took Brazil's sixth penalty, failed to withstand the pressure and hit the ball on the left post of the goal again.
At this moment, the Uruguayan fans in the stands were ecstatic, and Gago and the others also cheered.
But they were only happy for 1 minute. Garcia, who took Uruguay's sixth penalty, probably had too much pressure and hit the post, but it was the right post.
After the kick, Garcia put his head in his hands, looking in disbelief.
The two sides had to kick the seventh penalty kick!
