Pushing the three foot-picking men who were shamelessly sticking to his side, Romero felt like he had been punched in cotton.
Dong Fangzhuo and the other three didn't make any other moves, and they didn't even make a sound.
If the referee blew the whistle to tell them not to infringe the goalkeeper's position too much, the three of them didn't object.
But after pulling away, it stuck back like brown candy.
Several Argentinian players wanted to come forward to negotiate and protest, but looking at the expressionless three people with their hands raised above their heads, they had no choice.
Just like playing chess.
I just like to use the fastest speed to get out of the car and get under the car, blocking your horse's eyes so that you can't move.
You have the ability to bite me!
If Romero really had a pair of Su teeth, Gao Jiji would already have a few more teeth marks on his shoulders!
Whoosh!
Bang!
The ball hit the front post and flew out of the baseline.
While there was a burst of lamentation in the stands, everyone in Argentina could not help but let out a sigh of relief.
The camera lens found the old horse in the stands.
At this moment, he had his hands crossed on his chest, his cheeks were swollen, and his face looked very dissatisfied.
Where does the Chinese team rank?
Where does Argentina rank?
Even if it is the host country, which team has made Argentina so embarrassed?
Not even Brazil!
But it happened that the Chinese team did it.
And it's done well...
On the surface, it seems that it really means suppressing the opponent.
From the continuous attacks after the opening, to the fierce physical confrontation near the midfield, to the strategy of using high-altitude balls whenever the offense is...
After three strikes, Argentina, who had never seen this style of play before, was really confused.
In fact, the Chinese team's style of play is extremely simple and rough.
After playing for more than 20 minutes, Argentina gradually understood their opponent's strategy.
The first is defense.
The Olympic defense is very confusing.
From the midfield to the 30-meter area, the National Olympics' defensive strength will suddenly increase by more than two levels, catching the Argentine players who have just set foot in this area unprepared.
Go ahead in three seconds and run for the ball but not the man. Try not to take cards, and if you foul, you will foul!
With such intensity of fighting, the Argentine team's offensive rhythm can easily be interrupted; and once the referee does not blow the whistle, the Chinese team can counterattack on the spot.
In the offense, the National Olympic Games still adopted the same countermeasures.
Don't stick to the ball even if you die, try to hit it as high as possible. Even if you can't push forward, you still have to take the lead.
Offensive players will usually take the ball within three feet and pass the ball. Players in the penalty area will jump up first regardless of whether they can reach the top.
One or two missed, three or four missed the pass, five or six were cleared by the opponent, what about the seven or eight?
There will always be one that hits the door frame in an unexpected way. If it comes then, Romero won't even have a chance to cry.
Under such offensive and defensive tactics, the National Olympics also designed tactics such as "corner-type free kicks", "powerful hand throws", and "set kicks in front of the penalty area", among which the core executor is naturally Wang Xiaodong.
Under Wang Xiaodong's accurate "curved corner kicks", "long-range bombings" and "high-altitude grenades", Argentina did not break into the Olympic penalty area once in the past 20 minutes, let alone take a shot.
The entire first twenty minutes were like an offensive and defensive teaching battle.
The Olympic team members wearing red practiced strange and eye-catching offenses over and over again in the opponent's court. The sky-blue Pampas Eagle could only tighten its wings with all its strength to resist the opponent's artillery fire.
This phenomenon has amazed many senior football players present.
The national team coach is thinking about copying this tactic to compete with Argentina in the next international competition; the club coach is choosing which Olympic team member can be brought to the team to strengthen the weak.
In the 24th minute, Wang Xiaodong threw a foul ball from the left sideline.
Chen Tao, who was behind the vertical line in the penalty area, stopped the ball on his chest and did not wait for the ball to land before turning around and blindly scanning the middle.
Zhao Xuri, who was rushing near the penalty spot, stretched his legs desperately, made a big jump like a ballerina, and used his toes to push the ball at an extremely tricky angle.
Although the speed of the ball is not fast, it is better than suddenness.
Romero tried his best to block, and then saved the rebound ball on the goal line.
"Cow!"
"Zhao Xuri!"
"Shoot him!"
"Just cum!"
the fans shouted in unison.
After holding the ball with his second save, Romero chose to throw the ball to Zabaleta.
After the latter got the ball, he immediately chose Riquelme. Facing Wang Xiaodong who rushed towards him, Riquelme stepped on his left foot and pulled the ball back.
While avoiding Wang Xiaodong's sweep, he controlled the ball.
This time, it looked like Riquelme was winning.
But in fact, on other fronts, Aguero, who had just reached the offside position, suddenly braked suddenly, and Di Maria on the other side also accelerated and turned around, running back to prepare for the response.
Riquelme's old-fashioned way of controlling the ball has become the biggest shortcoming of the new generation of Argentina.
The master of art is still performing selflessly on the stage, and watching the flowers off the stage, the audience is no longer the original group.
"here!"
"here!"
Aguero and Di Maria shouted left and right, but Riquelme did not choose to pass the ball.
For him, passing the ball to two people means that within the next three touches of the ball, the opponent must take a shot.
This was the duty assigned to him by his time.
The forward does not need to control the ball more or even move more. He only needs to wait for the midfielder to find a gap in controlling the ball and pass the ball to his feet.
Once the midfielder passes the ball, it means that he finds that he has obtained a shooting gap and can adjust his shooting at any time.
But times are different now, and the way players perform their duties on the court is also different.
The classical attacking midfielder has begun to gradually withdraw from the stage of history, but Riquelme still adopts his inherent playing method.
When Riquelme made a few moves on the spot to throw Wang Xiaodong aside, and then continued to dribble the ball forward unhurriedly, even the old horse in the stands looked a little embarrassed.
As a football champion from that era, Lao Ma actually admires Riquelme's style and skills very much.
Even so, after discovering that the team missed several opportunities for quick counterattacks, Lao Ma also felt that the problem lay with the over-aged Olympic captain.
Wang Xiaodong was tricked by Riquelme, but the other Olympic defensive players had completely returned to their positions.
Riquelme, who passed Wang Xiaodong, urged Di Maria, Aguero and Messi in front to move forward quickly, and confidently moved his body left and right to block Wang Xiaodong's pursuit.
In desperation, Argentina's three offensive players could only turn around and run forward.
But at the moment when they were at Riquelme's spot, Hao Junmin, who had returned to defense, suddenly appeared in front of Riquelme from diagonally.
Facing the newly recruited National Olympic team members, Riquelme stepped on the bicycle with both feet crossed.
Hao Junmin was dazzled and kept retreating.
But when the limit of three seconds passed, Hao Junmin was like a wild beast that had eaten poisonous mushrooms and desperately grabbed the ball at Riquelme's feet.
Facing the irrational "beast", Riquelme shook his upper body slightly and quickly pulled his center of gravity back. He moved his right foot forward and easily avoided Hao Junmin's outstretched leg.
But just when Riquelme wanted to continue to control the ball, a red figure suddenly cut in from behind, completely blocking the connection between him and the ball.
"Wang Xiaodong steals the ball!"
He Wei exclaimed.
Clean and neat!
No sloppiness.
It's a complete mistake in rhythm.
Wang Xiaodong was even kicked in the calf by Riquelme!
Riquelme had nowhere to complain about such a stolen ball.
When he was about to follow his opponent's pace and get close to him, Wang Xiaodong caught up with the ball and pushed with his left foot, passing the ball to Sun Jihai on the wing.
Sun Jihai was just following Messi on the wing. When he saw Wang Xiaodong steal the ball, he quickly turned around. The speed of transition between offense and defense was as fast as it could be.
At this moment, the three Argentine players who were advancing had to stop. When they turned their heads and planned to defend, Sun Jihai had already kicked the ball out and passed it to the forward.
Looking at the kicked ball, any forward who is thrown on the offside line will lose the intention to pursue it.
At this time, retreating to defense, what is the difference between that and walking a stupid boy?
Sun Jihai's long pass went straight to the frontcourt. Chen Tao blocked the opponent's fullback near the sideline and stopped the ball with his chest.
"Old Dong!"
Chen Tao swept the ball to the feet of Dong Fangzhuo, who was advancing quickly.
At this moment, Dong Fangzhuo and Zabaleta were side by side, rushing toward the ball as if they were racing.
"Chen Tao's story..."
"Dong Fangzhuo is chasing me!"
"boom!"
At this moment, Wang Dong finally showed the impact ability of a Manchester United striker. He used his shoulders to squeeze away the opponent and at the same time made a quick bucket with his toes, causing Zabaleta to have no choice but to make a tackle.
But even the opponent's tackle could not stop Dong Fangzhuo's progress.
He jumped up with a slight kick, avoided Zabaleta's right foot and continued to chase the ball.
"Dong Fangzhuo is here..."
"Garay came closer!"
Seeing that the ball was about to go out of bounds, Dong Fangzhuo took the lead in skating and used his final strength to hook the ball back from the baseline without the need for Garret to defend it.
Looking at the ball flying past his shoulder, Garay stretched his neck suddenly, but missed it.
When he turned around, like all the fans in the audience, his eyes widened.
"Well..."
In front of the goal, Mascherano rushed forward regardless of his own safety.
But it was still a step too late.
Gao Jiji, who rushed to the goal, stretched out his right foot and kicked the ball hard with the sole of his foot.
Bang!
This bad kick from the national football team made Romero dizzy on the goal line.
When he got up, the bird's nest once again shook with cheers.
"The ball is in!"
"Gao...plane!!!"
