Although the head coach did not give clear instructions, the England team still involuntarily launched a defensive counterattack after taking the lead.
Argentina obviously began to feel nervous. After the start of the game, the offense seemed a bit disorganized. The England team buried heavy troops in the midfield, making it very difficult for them to advance forward. Even Messi had to retreat frequently to reach the ball. The situation on the field was temporarily degenerate. There was a stalemate.
In addition to the fans of the two countries, the people paying most attention to this game are naturally the German team, which has taken the lead in reaching the final.
Every German player was watching the game with rapt attention, exchanging their opinions in a low voice from time to time.
This World Cup is too weird, with strong teams overturning and dark horses running rampant, but the final semi-finals are basically within the range that everyone can predict. But if you want to pick the weakest among the semi-finals, there is no doubt that it is England.
Before the game, the Germans basically regarded Argentina as their imaginary opponent in the final, but they did not expect that Argentina was completely at a disadvantage before the first half was even halfway through.
"Lin Yun..."
The German team is basically made up of Bayern players, and almost all of them were abused by Lin Yun, so they still know very well how perverted this guy is.
But England is not Arsenal, Germany is not Bayern Munich, and the World Cup is not the Champions League. Here, the power of individuals is infinitely weakened. Only a mature and powerful team can create brilliance. But obviously, the emergence of Lin Yun broke this everything.
But even Lin Yun was cautious at this time, not daring to launch an offensive casually, but cautiously retreating to participate in the defense.
The game seemed to be what a semi-final should be like again, dull and boring.
The Argentine fans on the sidelines began to lose their patience and kept shouting Messi's name. From time to time, sounds like "Di Maria" and "Aguero" could be heard.
Messi didn't know if he was being violent, but he soon broke out.
While he was roaming in the middle, he suddenly pulled to the side, and Zabaleta immediately passed the ball over.
Wilshere's mind has been on Messi and he has been entangled with him, but the most talented dribbling master on the planet, this level of pressing does not cause any trouble to Messi. He turned around to receive the ball. Sometimes it even feels like there are no defenders around.
The movement was fast and steady, without any sloppiness. He just took the ball with his left foot, half-turned, and then quickly flicked his toes, and the football followed his body and rolled towards the front of the penalty area.
Every movement is extremely simple, making people feel as if they only need feet, but the fact is that you can only find one such person in the world.
Thunder breaks out in silent places.
Even Lineker couldn't help but marvel again.
"Research shows that Messi's stride frequency is as high as 4.4 Hz. In layman's terms, Messi can run 4.4 steps per second.
Maybe you don’t know what this concept is. The most intuitive comparison is that Bolt’s cadence is only 4.2 Hz, while Powell, the sprinter with the fastest cadence, is only 4.4 Hz. In other words, Messi’s running frequency has been Reached the level of top track and field athletes.
During this period, Messi still has to control the ball at his feet, change the direction at any time, and observe the movements of his opponents and teammates..."
While he was boasting despite leaving the field, Messi had already passed Baines and Sterling, who was returning to defend, and then used an inward cut in the style of Robben and moved horizontally to the middle of the field.
Lavezzi and Higuain entered the penalty area and surrounded the goal, while Messi also quickly adjusted and faced the goal.
With his ability, he can create a threat whether passing or shooting.
Three Lions fans all over the world are so nervous that their hearts are pounding like wild deer.
Lin Yun, who was in the frontcourt, quickly scanned his eyes and finally followed Gerrard.
rely on you……
Gerrard lived up to expectations. He came to Messi's side just before he took off and made a flying tackle.
Messi was unable to dodge and was knocked to the ground.
The English people had just felt relieved when the sudden sharp whistle made their hearts hang on the tightrope.
"beep!!!!"
Rodriguez, the referee from Mexico, ran over quickly and took out the first topaz card of the game without hesitation.
"Yellow card, free kick!"
A verdict that simultaneously caused dissatisfaction among fans from both sides.
"Fall! Liar!"
"Red card! Penalty kick!"
"Messi fell on the penalty area line, but the referee only awarded a free kick and gave Gerrard a yellow card. Gerrard did not protest. It seemed that he also knew that it was impossible for him to not receive a card for this foul action. of……"
Gerrard walked into the penalty area expressionlessly, and Messi was pulled up by Higuain.
Players from both sides quickly came to the England half and faced this free kick extremely close to the goal with extreme caution.
"Messi has scored 41 free kicks since his debut, the most recent one was against Nigeria in the group stage of this World Cup!
The England team had just scored a goal with a free kick. I wonder if Messi and Argentina can retaliate in the same way..."
From the perspective of neutral fans, everyone still hopes that Messi can score this goal. This will undoubtedly make the sense of fate of "Lin Yun VS Messi" stronger, but even if Messi fans brag about Messi all day long, Taking free kicks as penalty kicks, but everyone knows that no matter who it is, the success rate of free kicks is there. It is considered efficient to score four or five in a season. This thing is really expected at critical moments. Not on.
Of course, you still have to look forward to it. At this moment, except for the English fans, almost everyone in the world watching the game became Argentines.
Lin Yun walked into the penalty area and formed a human wall with Sterling, Cahill and others, but he deliberately stood on the far side of the human wall to ensure that he could rush out to counterattack at any time.
Joe Hart was more cautious than ever, constantly observing Messi's position and reaching out to direct his teammates' positions.
At this moment, all fans around the world stopped what they were doing.
Everyone wants to know whether the Argentines are reveling or Messi is holding his head and sighing after dozens of seconds.
Lin Yun was also staring closely at Messi, but not at Messi's face, but at his left foot.
When the whistle sounded, Messi looked up, took a run, and hit the goal.
The football passed between Cahill and Wilshere. Lin Yun suddenly turned around and rushed toward the goal.
He correctly judged the direction of Messi's shot and subconsciously wanted to block the ball, but how could a person run faster than the ball.
At this time, we can only count on Joe Hart, but Joe Hart has been around longer than him.
The football was ready to arrive at his doorstep, but he still had no reaction.
Fortunately the goalposts were on England's side today.
With a "bang", all the people in England came to life.
But it's not over yet.
The football bounced off the goalpost and flew directly towards Higuain.
Glen Johnson was half a second too late to react. Higuain had already rushed forward and calmly pushed the ball into the dead center of the goal.
Joe Hart did react this time.
He bent slightly as if out of routine...
The England fans on the sidelines couldn't bear to watch, but a figure suddenly rushed to the door like lightning.
Fall to the ground, slide tackle, save!
"Lin Yun! Goal line rescue!!!"
"Oh~~What a pity! Messi and Higuain both had the chance to become heroes, but the goalpost and Lin Yun ruined everything!"
There were exclamations, sighs, and shouts from the stands at the same time.
Joe Hart reacted very quickly at this time. He immediately ran over and tried to pull Lin Yun up, but Lin Yun had already held up his hands and ran out of the goal quickly.
The football blocked by him came to Gerrard's feet. Gerrard immediately kicked the ball to the wing as if he had received a hot potato.
Baynes sprinted a few steps, caught the ball, and rushed forward.
Rooney, Sterling, and Welbeck immediately ran forward, and together with Baines, they fired four arrows.
Argentinian players quickly returned to defense.
What reassured the Argentinian fans on the sidelines was that although the England team's counterattack looked suffocating, their own players did not appear to be obviously out of position. This wave of defense should not be a big problem... right?
"Baines dribbled the ball from the wing, and the England team counterattacked quickly! Rooney passed the ball diagonally and received it! Rooney rushed forward with the ball, and Mascherano was pressing closely and slowed down! What a pity...Lin Yun?! He wasn't there In the goal?”
Rooney failed to beat Pony Ma in the first try, and the England team was stumbling. Just as they were about to miss this counterattack opportunity, Lin Yun suddenly rushed up from behind.
Rooney was overjoyed and fired the ball quickly.
Lin Yun didn't stop the ball and directly passed the ball.
The football flew over the heads of Mascherano and Rooney and flew forward.
After passing the ball, Rooney turned around quite tacitly and rushed forward, and the football fell in his direction as accurately as he expected.
Rooney caught up with the ball and passed Welbeck diagonally.
Welbeck took the ball from the wing and flew straight to the baseline.
Lin Yun fought hard and quickly rushed into the Argentina team's penalty area.
Welbeck looked up, took two consecutive fake moves to deceive Rojo's center of gravity, and made a pass.
Lin Yun jumped high and headed the ball towards the goal.
Lin Yun mastered the ball very well, whether it was the movement or the timing of the shot, but Welbeck's passing was somewhat outrageous.
Lin Yun had already tried his best to jump to the highest point, but he could only barely reach the lower part of the football.
The football crossed the crossbar amidst the regretful sighs of the English people, and Lin Yun crashed into the goal again.
It only took him less than half a minute to get from one goal to another...
"Welbeck passed the ball and Lin Yun headed the ball towards the goal. Unfortunately, it was too high and England also missed a great opportunity!"
"When the game reached a stalemate, it was really up to Messi and Lin Yun to liven up the situation. Unfortunately, neither of them could break through the opponent's goal.
Lin Yun was not only very active on the offensive end, but also made a great contribution on the defensive end. If it weren't for his goal-line rescue, the score on the field would have become a draw. "
"Lavizzi seems to be protesting to the referee. He thinks Higuain's shot just now has gone in. Is that really true? Let's watch the replay... It can be seen clearly from this shot that the football did not even touch the goal. The line had already been blocked by Lin Yun. This goal did not exist. Oops, Lin Yun was so desperate to save his life this time. He almost hit the goal post..."
Romero walked towards Lin Yun and stretched out his friendly hand to pull him up.
Lin Yun patted him on the shoulder and left Argentina's penalty area in silence.
Rooney said regretfully: "You won't even make it?"
"I can only jump, but I can't fly."
"He should pass it back to me, and I'll pass it on!"
"It's all over. We have to wait until the game is over to summarize...and I highly doubt that even if I pass it to you, it will only be a waste!"
"No, how can you look at me like this, I will definitely pass it to you, you know, I like assists, assists make me happy."
"..."
After experiencing these two dangerous situations, the two sides became even more frightened.
Lin Yun and Welbeck switched positions, putting him at the front, and returned to the midfield to participate in organization and defense.
This actually puts him on par with Messi.
Neither of them is good at defense, and they are both the best dribblers in today's football. Naturally, we cannot expect the two of them to fight for 300 rounds. It is inseparable. Basically, you pass me like a fool, and I pass you like a bag. , anyway, after each left a lot of material for die-hard fans and anti-fans to fall in love and fight with each other, the first half is coming to an end.
"Forty-five minutes of the first half are about to pass. The referee gave two minutes of stoppage time. The score is still 1-0. England is temporarily leading Argentina with Lin Yun's goal.
The threats created by the two teams in the first half were relatively limited, with a total of only seven shots from both sides... Look at this goal! ! ! "
The two sides fought fiercely in the midfield. Wilshere turned around to protect the ball and passed back to find Gerrard.
Gerrard saw Mascherano's figure out of the corner of his eye, and before he had time to stop him, the small-threat pass was in front of him.
He quickly took two steps forward to meet her, but it was still too late.
Mascherano fell to the ground decisively and quickly to make a sliding tackle, successfully intercepting the ball before Gerrard received it.
He didn't bother to get up, and directly stabbed the ball with the sole of his foot towards Messi.
Baines immediately stepped forward to intercept, but Messi seemed to have been waiting for him. When receiving the ball, he moved horizontally and the football rolled directly behind Baines.
Lin Yun knew it was going to be bad as soon as he saw it.
Higuain and Lavezzi restrained Glen Johnson and Jagielka respectively. After Messi passed Baines, only Gary Cahill was able to intercept him head-on.
To stop Messi one-on-one, I don’t know how many tons of incense must be burned...
Gary Cahill also knew what he was, and he didn't dare to sit still in the penalty area. Instead, he rushed out quickly, having already made up his mind to stop Messi even if he received a yellow card.
But you can't just take a yellow card if you want.
His tackle was fast and hard enough, but Messi's movements were faster and more clever.
Another effortless push and button, and the last obstacle was passed.
Glen Johnson and Jagielka couldn't care less about Higuain and Lavezzi at this time, and quickly came over to guard Messi.
Messi had no ink mark. After passing Gary Neville, he immediately raised his left foot and rubbed it quickly.
As soon as Lin Yung caught up with him, Messi had already finished shooting.
The football took off about half a meter from the penalty area line, drew an obvious arc in the air, and flew towards the upper right corner of the England gate.
Joe Hart had already reacted the moment Messi shot and judged the direction and path of the ball correctly, but Lin Yun knew at a glance that it was hopeless.
The football flew into the goal before Joe Hart's hand could reach it, 1-1.
England's lead lasted for nearly half an hour before finally evaporating before the break.
Lin Yun was unable to stop his momentum and suddenly hit Messi's back.
Messi had just finished the goal and when he lost his footing, he immediately fell forward.
Lin Yun, with quick eyes and quick hands, quickly reached out to fish it out. Finally, he grabbed Messi's jersey before he fell to the ground and pulled him back.
Messi looked back and rushed to the sideline with joy.
The other Argentine players swarmed around him and cheered wildly.
"GOAL!!! Messi! Messi! Messi! After passing two people, he hit the goal with a curved ball from outside the penalty area. A typical Messi-style goal! Argentina tied the score!!!"
"Alas, the England team was careless and made low-level mistakes. Wilshere could have been bolder, but he still chose to pass back. As a result, Argentina was given a chance. Let's see if Hodgson will make any adjustments in the second half. …”
The camera focuses on the celebrities from both sides in the stands.
Lao Ma, Batty, Aimar and others were overjoyed and jumped up and down like ordinary fans. On the other side, Beckham, Irving, Scholes and others pursed their lips, looking speechless.
Wilshere covered his mouth with his hands, as if he still couldn't accept that such a stupid thing would happen to him.
Lin Yun walked over, put his arm around his shoulders and shook him hard, "Forget it, you still have time to prove yourself! What has happened has happened, what we need to think about now is how to make amends, instead of feeling sorry for ourselves here. !”
"I understand..." Wilshere rubbed his face hard, "I don't want to be a sinner..."
"Then save yourself!"
Wilshere nodded fiercely, but he obviously went too far. After the game started again, he received a yellow card because of his fierce fighting.
In this way, both England's defensive midfielders have a topaz stuck in them.
Wenger and Ferguson in the stands shook their heads secretly at the same time.
Therefore, it is said that small threats can only be small threats, and it is not without reason that the prince of Arsenal can only be the prince. In addition to his talent, he has too many areas to strengthen...
"...Wilshere pulled down Messi and gave the Argentinian a free kick in the frontcourt. He needs to calm down now, or Hodgson should help him calm down. For example, replacing Henderson or Milner at this time may help is a better choice.”
Hodgson was also in a dilemma.
He did have the intention of replacing Wilshere at the beginning of the second half, but that was under the premise that England was leading.
Now that Argentina has tied the score, England must strengthen its offensive in the second half, and Wilshere is indispensable at this time. After all, his tacit understanding with Lin Yun is almost the best in the team...
Argentina's free kick was still taken by Messi, but this time Messi kicked the ball directly into the stands, and the two sides quickly entered the locker room with a score of 1-1.
The fans quickly took advantage of this rare fifteen minutes to solve the problem. After all, the next 45 minutes or even 75 minutes will definitely be a moment of bloodshed.
In the locker room, the atmosphere was a bit depressing.
Regardless of the score or the process, the performance of both sides can only be said to be evenly matched.
In response to the predictions of many fans, it was a game where Lin Yun or Messi's teammates would be more behind.
Higuain missed a semi-lone opportunity, Sterling also missed a shot that almost reached his mouth, and finally Wilshere made a pass error, allowing Argentina to tie the score.
Hodgson said in a deep voice: "Cheer up! You are not worthy of entering the World Cup finals like this! It's time to fight hard! Don't think about overtime or penalty kicks. We only have four minutes left." Fifteen minutes! Give it your best, then kill the damn German team and go home with the Hercules Cup!"
Gerald did not come out to encourage morale, and seemed to be still considering his words. Lin Yun's voice sounded first.
"The opportunity is rare, brothers... The World Cup comes once every four years, but we may not be able to reach the semifinals every four years.
This is my first World Cup, but for many of you it may be the last.
The goal is there, the victory is there, the final is there, the distance is close or far away, the opponent is strong or weak, and it all depends on us.
No one can guarantee that he will always be the winner. Football is a game with only one winner. I only hope that even if we have to play in the third or fourth place finals after this game, I can leave this stadium with my head held high... …”
"Actually, even if the game ends now, you can already leave with your head held high, but we can't yet!"
Gerald finally found his words, patted Lin Yun's shoulder heavily and looked at everyone.
"Brothers, don't waste Lin's efforts, let alone let down your career!
There are billions of people on the entire earth, but only a few hundred people can stand on this stage in the end. There are tens of millions of people in England, but in the end we are the only ones who can wear this jersey and represent England!
Unite together and fight bravely. Remember, we...never walk alone! "
"fighting!"
"victory!"
"Work hard, work hard!"
"Never walk alone..."
After finishing the game, Hodgson took the time to assign tasks. However, judging from the first half, there seemed to be nothing that could be adjusted in terms of tactics. He chatted for more than ten minutes, and the overall requirements were just a few: reduce low-level mistakes, Cherish every opportunity, and... when you really don't know what to do, pass the ball to Lin Yun's position.
Fifteen minutes passed, and players from both sides returned to the court again.
No one had any intention of playing overtime, and the second half started very intensely.
On England's side, it was Lin Yun who sounded the attack horn.
In the 47th minute of the game, Rooney passed back, Wilshere passed the ball over the top, and Lin Yun volleyed directly without stopping the ball.
The football flew nearly 40 meters away, and was blocked by Romero from the bottom line with great difficulty under the worried eyes of the Argentine.
"...Lin Yun volleyed and hit a very high-quality world wave. Romero once again saved the team and England got a corner kick opportunity."
Players from both sides entered the penalty area, and Rojo and Demichelis sandwiched Lin Yun in the middle.
The two of them, one experienced and the other young and energetic, complemented each other perfectly, but they still had a hard time facing Lin Yun. Fortunately, the football passed by Gerrard did not fly towards them, but accurately found Rooney. bald.
Rooney just jumped up and screamed before he could header the ball, and fell to the ground together with Biglia.
The football flew to the back point, and Sterling and Zabaleta rushed towards the football together.
Lin Yun got stuck in his position, blocking Zabaleta's footsteps, allowing Sterling to get to the football first.
The happy boy doesn't want to be happy now, he just wants to score goals.
Seeing that Romero was about to make a save, Sterling fell to the ground decisively and completed a very difficult sweep.
The football lifted off the ground and flew to the right side of the goal.
In panic, Romero stretched out his hand and barely touched the football. The football changed its flight trajectory and hit Enzo Perez, who was able to clear the ball with his big feet.
Sterling jumped up from the ground, raised his hands, and shouted incoherently, "Handball! The football hit his hand! Penalty kick! Penalty kick!"
Lin Yun also looked at the referee, "He had a handball! Penalty kick!"
In fact, he just shouted blindly, knowing that the referee would not award a penalty kick.
The football did hit Enzo Perez's arm, but Perez's arm was always close to his body. In addition, even if he didn't block it, the ball would only fly out of the baseline, so the referee had no right to make a decision. reason.
On the other side, Zabaleta also had something to say.
He believed that Lin Yun's pick-and-roll action just now should not have appeared on the football field, and England's No. 9 should have received five red cards.
Argentina had launched a quick counterattack, and the referee had no time to fight with them and had already chased the football.
Messi kicked the ball, Lavezzi received the ball and played a one-two with Higuain, quickly advancing the ball into the England half.
England's defensive players were desperately trying to catch up, but they still couldn't stop the Argentine's progress.
At the critical moment, Wilshere finally proved himself, blocking the ball out of bounds when Messi was about to make a fatal pass.
"The English team failed to take advantage of the corner kick opportunity to exceed the score, and Argentina's counterattack was also destroyed by Wilshere. The pace of the second half was very fast."
What makes Argentine fans uneasy is that Lin Yun was still active in the second half, but Messi seemed to be invisible, and there was no outstanding performance for a long time.
In the 51st minute, Glen Johnson successfully stole the ball and passed it diagonally to Lin Yun. Lin Yun accurately sent the ball in front of Rooney.
Rooney followed up with a kick that missed the goal.
In the 55th minute, Welbeck passed the ball from the edge of the penalty area. Lin Yun was double-teamed by Rojo and Demichelis and scored the ball into the arms of Romero with an upside-down golden hook.
In the 60th minute, Argentina made a quick pass in England's half, and Lavezzi finally sent the ball into the stands.
Savilia couldn't sit still and was the first to make a substitution.
Aguero came out after being asked for a long time, and was replaced by Lavezzi, who had done nothing.
"Aguero finally played! It's a pity that Di Maria was not included in the squad due to injury, otherwise we would have seen Argentina's strongest lineup!"
I don’t know if it was activated by the appearance of his good friend, but Messi suddenly became active.
Sterling and Rooney's continuous hitting the wall style was messed up, the football was interrupted by Zabaleta, and the Argentine team launched a quick counterattack.
The football was delivered to Messi's feet.
Wilshere did not dare to fight alone, and waited until Gerrard came to support before attacking Messi together, but Messi easily squeezed out of the gap between them.
Both of them had cards in hand and did not dare to make any excessive moves. They could only watch as Messi flew out.
Hodgson shook his head, but was still reluctant to touch Wilshere. He just tilted his head and said to the assistant coach, "Let Lampard get ready to play."
In fact, what he wants to change most is Sterling.
With two big brothers, Lin Yun and Rooney, at the front to attract firepower, this was supposed to be the time for a young talent like Sterling to emerge and become famous. Unfortunately, he was given the opportunity, but Sterling was completely incompetent. Used in China.
At first, everyone thought that Sterling could play a role similar to that of Di Maria next to Messi, supporting England when Lin Yun was heavily targeted. But now it seems that he can even play Higuain. Can't do it.
He has talent, aura, and skills, and he is burdened with the expectations of thousands of people, but he just can't do it!
There is Chamberlain sitting on the bench, but unfortunately he is the same as Sterling.
If Walcott was not injured, he could have gone up and charged. Unfortunately, this little tiger was made of glass. He applied for VIP directly on the hospital bed. The time he spent recuperating from his injuries throughout the year was almost longer than the time he was healthy.
Messi slowed down after passing Wilshere and Gerrard, so Hodgson had time to think about some messy things. Everyone thought that Messi's personal performance would probably end here, but Messi didn't expect it. Xi controlled the ball and spun around twice before suddenly heading towards the wing.
"Messi's condition today seems not to be ideal. This should be a good news for England...Messi has beaten three people! Four people in a row! It's crazy. The English can't even stop him!"
Messi used Lingbo microsteps to pass Wilshere, Gerrard, Baines and Gary Cahill.
"This ball..."
"Goal of the century?"
Messi's line of action is hard not to think of Maradona's classic, the "best goal in the history of the World Cup" when he passed five people in a row and scored the ball.
There are still Jagielka, Glen Johnson and Joe Hart between Messi and the goal.
But Jagielka was restrained by Aguero and couldn't get away at all.
Fortunately, Higuain was still behind, otherwise even Glen Johnson would have been taken away.
Glen Johnson also knew that he now carried the hope of the whole village, so he carefully blocked Messi with his weight.
He didn't dare to rush forward and could only wait for the support of his teammates.
Don’t seek merit, but seek no faults.
How could Messi mess with him...
His shoulders sank, he gently moved the inside of his left foot, and he was about to change direction and kill him.
Glen Johnson's mind kept telling him that it was a fake move, a fake move, don't go over, don't go over, but his body still disobediently swayed with Messi's movements.
And then it’s over…
Messi's left foot touched the ball twice in just half a second, easily wiping past England's last line of defense.
Joe Hart struck decisively and pounced on Messi aggressively.
Messi didn't even raise his eyelids, and lifted his left foot lightly.
A rainbow seemed to rise in front of the England team's goal, and the football drew a wonderful parabola, flying over Joe Hart's head and landing on the goal behind him.
"GOAL!!! Messi passed five people in a row and scored with a shot!!!"
"In the 62nd minute of the game, Argentina overtook the score! Messi scored twice, and the balance of victory was tilted towards Argentina!"
Messi's tense face finally relaxed after the football passed the line and turned into an excited smile.
Aguero was the first to rush over, and the two rushed to the sidelines hand in hand to celebrate wildly.
In the stands, Maradona waved the scarf in his hand excitedly and shouted something loudly.
The Argentine TV commentator was so excited that he made some controversial remarks.
"Messi has won four Ballon d'Ors and won almost all honors at the club level. If he can lead Argentina to the top of this World Cup, he will become the third greatest player in the history of world football!"
"Messi once again recreated Maradona's masterpiece. He dribbled the ball from the midfield, passed five English defenders and then sent the ball into the English net!
There are bright stars on the World Cup stage, and Maradona is undoubtedly the most dazzling star. He left many miracles on the World Cup stadium with his epoch-making skills. Among them, the most talked about are the Hand of God and the Century Goal. ball, and the victims of these two goals are England!
Now, Messi once again cruelly opened the wounds of England!
1-2, they only have half an hour left before the World Cup final!
England needs a hero! Gerald! Rooney! Lin Yun! They have to... huh? Gerrard was substituted? ! What did Hodgson think? "
When Gerrard is mentioned, of course everyone thinks of Liverpool, and when Liverpool is mentioned, of course everyone thinks of various reversals.
And when you replace Gerrard when you need a reversal the most, it's a bit confusing.
Of course, some people have the opposite view.
"Gerrard and Wilshere should have stopped Messi immediately, but they both had yellow cards on their bodies, which forced them to be more cautious and conservative when defending, which gave Messi a chance. , Hodgson’s substitution is too late!”
Gerrard hurried to the sidelines, quickly took off the captain's armband, put it on Lampard's arm, and then patted him hard.
The two virtues looked at each other and said a thousand words without saying anything.
Lampard waved over Welbeck and Sterling, gave some urgent instructions, and then called two full-backs, but before he could speak, he saw the substitution board raised on the sidelines again.
Baines exits, Luke Shaw enters.
This is an emergency substitution.
Baines shrugged his shoulders, jogged to the sidelines, and replaced Luke Shaw.
After the Argentina coaching staff celebrated, they also became busy, and several core players were called to the sidelines to receive instructions.
The game started again, and Argentina shrank its defense as everyone expected.
England pressed hard.
Luke Shaw received instructions from Hodgson and played quite aggressively, almost becoming a full midfielder or even a winger. As soon as he touched the ball, he showed an eye-catching performance.
"...Luke Xiao has passed the ball! Biglia has absolutely nothing to do with him! Look at Mascherano!"
As soon as Mascherano made the move, Luke Shaw changed his direction and avoided it. However, he did not let the England defender pass. Instead, he reached out decisively and pulled the opponent back.
"Beep!"
The referee took out the cards while running, and Xiao Ma liked to mention a topaz card.
Lampard came up, patted Luke Shaw on the shoulder to express encouragement, and then quickly placed the ball.
"England get a free kick to the left, let's see what Lampard does..."
Lin Yun and Rooney were lying in ambush on the left and right sides of the wall, and immediately rushed to the goal after Lampard's free kick. Unfortunately, Lan 8's ball was too high and did not even give him a chance to make a supplementary shot.
Argentina began to put the bus in their own half, leaving only Aguero in front.
On the sidelines, Argentine midfielder Fernando Gago was already warming up, which made the English even more anxious.
"Gago is ready to play. If nothing else happens, he should replace Higuain. Argentina needs to strengthen its control in the midfield..."
The England players on the field started to act a bit messy.
Rooney, Sterling, and Lampard's three consecutive anti-aircraft shots not only failed to pose any threat, but instead aroused bursts of ridicule from the Argentine fans on the sidelines.
Lin Yun frowned in a rare way and couldn't help shouting: "What are you doing?! Calm down! Calm down! Calm down!"
Lampard secretly felt ashamed, took a deep breath, and clapped his hands vigorously, "Be calm and don't mess up! The two central defenders are optimistic about their forwards, we can't concede any more goals!"
In Argentina's goal kick, Savilla replaced Higuain with Gago.
Argentina changed to 4-4-2, but Messi's position has always been very flexible, so it is not impossible to treat it as 4-5-1.
England is also preparing to make adjustments, but it can be seen that Hodgson is also hesitant, because both Sturridge and Chamberlain were called to the sidelines by him, but he has not yet decided who to play.
Romero kicked the ball to Zabaleta and Argentina cautiously advanced down the wing.
It took a long time to pass the half-time.
Messi suddenly accelerated in the middle and rushed towards the England penalty area with Aguero.
Gago immediately made a long pass to find Messi.
Wilshere blocked his position, pushed Messi aside, jumped up and headed the ball towards Lampard.
Lampard stopped the ball with his chest and controlled the ball at his feet. He was about to organize a wave "calmly" and "compassionately" as Lin Yun and himself said just now. When he looked up, he saw Lin Yun's back rushing forward.
He subconsciously made a through pass and sent the ball away.
Lin Yun dribbled the ball in the middle of the midfield, and Mascherano immediately came forward, but Lin Yun easily changed direction and passed him.
