After celebrating for a while, the podium was set up. Captain Henderson won the 2016 European Super Cup on behalf of Liverpool. The Red Army became the 2016 European King of Kings.
In terms of experience rewards for Willard, the European Super Cup is a competition between the Champions League and the Europa League. Although there is only one game, the game experience is indeed a level higher than the simple Champions League. The experience of a single goal reaches A staggering 100 million, and the championship trophy also reached 1 billion.
It’s just that there are no awards such as assist king, top scorer of the tournament, or best player of the tournament.
Even so, Velarde has gained a huge experience of 100 million starting points + 1 assist 50 million + 1 goal 100 million + winning award 200 million + A-level performance 500 million + winning award 1 billion = 1.95 billion. The experience suddenly rose to more than 2.7 billion, which is not far from the upgrade experience of 3 billion.
Obviously, I made a lot of money by flying back to Europe to participate in the Super Cup in the middle of the Olympics. However, the Olympics, which has the same level of experience as the Premier League, will not gain as much experience as the European Super Cup even if it wins.
Of course, now that the European Super Cup has been played, Velarde has to fly back to Brazil and continue to lead the players of the Argentine Olympic team in the Olympic Games.
The European Super Cup has just ended, and the third round of the Olympic men's football team D has also officially begun. His teammates accompanied Willard in the locker room to watch the live broadcast of the last round of the group stage.
If Argentina is really defeated by Honduras and Portugal and eliminated from the Olympic Games, there will be no need for Velarde to fly back to Brazil. Of course, he had to be prepared to be scolded to death by the media and fans, because if he hadn't gone back to Europe to participate in the Super Cup, the Argentine Olympic team would have definitely qualified.
Facts have proved that Velarde's adventure did not go unnoticed. Even without Velarde, the ragtag Argentina Olympic team still drew 1-1 with Honduras, with two wins and one draw and a stable score of 7 points. Ranked first in the group and qualified.
Surprisingly, Portugal failed to win in the final round against Algeria, which had already been eliminated early, and tied with 1-1.
As a result, when Portugal lost to Argentina in the first round, like Honduras, it only accumulated 4 points with one win and one draw, and its goal difference was not as high as that of Honduras.
As a result, the final ranking of Group D was Argentina first, Honduras ranked second with a goal difference advantage, and Portugal only ranked third and was eliminated in the group stage.
Honduras was an upset.
Argentina successfully qualified, and Velarde can return to Brazil with confidence and boldness.
Early the next morning, Velarde boarded a plane to Brazil and continued his return to the Brazilian Olympic Games.
When Velarde was on the plane, media from various countries also reported the news that Liverpool won the European Super Cup and Argentina advanced to the knockout rounds of the Olympic Games.
"Liverpool wins the European Super Cup, and Willard completes 1/2 of his mission to win the cross-continental championship!" 》
"New signing Mane scored a hat-trick, and Red Army Liverpool beat Real Madrid 4-2 to win the 2016 European Super Cup! 》
"Argentina's Olympic team drew 1-1 with Honduras in the final round of the group stage and advanced to the knockout rounds as the first in the group! 》
"Argentina qualified first in Group D, Honduras qualified second in the group and became a dark horse, and Portugal was eliminated in the group stage! 》
"It's going well. Velarde flew back to Europe to win the Super Cup on the way to the Olympics. Argentina also advanced to the Olympic men's football knockout round. Velarde still has a chance to win the Olympic championship. 》
Back in Brazil, Velarde accepted the congratulations of his teammates and coaches, and then attended the press conference before the start of the knockout round with the coach, accepted interviews from reporters, and responded to all questions about him.
Velarde said that the European Super Cup has been obtained, and now he will go all out to win the knockout rounds with only one goal, which is to win the championship.
He wants to silence all those who criticize and criticize him.
He just has this strength and physical fitness. He can run back to Europe during the Olympics to win another championship. Those who can't stand it can only hold it in.
On August 13, the first knockout match of the 2016 Brazilian Olympic men's football team, the quarter-final match between the Argentina Olympic team and the German Olympic team, officially started at the National Stadium in Brasilia.
Argentina is first in Group D, and Germany is second in Group C. The German team has not even competed with South Korea and only finished second in the group. Everyone thinks that the German team's strength and condition are average.
But when the game officially started, Argentina's players, coaches, and fans discovered that this was a hard bone, and not an ordinary one.
More importantly, Willard flew back to Europe to participate in a high-intensity European Super Cup. Although he was in very good physical condition, the fatigue of the long journey inevitably affected his on-field performance. Poor performance in the game.
In addition, the Argentine Olympic team itself was a makeshift team that barely had enough people to sign up for the competition. In the first half, they were almost beaten by the German team, even though Velarde was running around trying to make up for it. loopholes.
The key is that Villard himself sometimes makes wrong judgments, or reacts a beat too slowly, or fails to remind his teammates in time. Flying back to Europe to compete will have a comprehensive impact on Willard's state in this game.
In the 23rd minute, the German Olympic team took the lead in scoring. After midfielder Max Meyer broke through the middle to attract Willard's attention, he passed the ball to the right wing.
Right midfielder Brandt made a pass, and Willard rushed into the penalty area to defend center Selke. As a result, Brandt's cross was very powerful and ran from an inverted triangle to the open area in the left corner of the penalty area.
Left midfielder Gnabry rushed into the penalty area and shot a high-quality volley into the left corner of the penalty area, successfully blasting the ball into Argentina's goal.
Although Velarde had discovered the danger according to the path of the ball and tried to rush over and block the hole of the gun, the speed of the ball still exceeded his speed to cover and block, and the ball finally flew past him and into the goal.
The German team scored first, leading the Argentine Olympic team 1-0.
Seeing that the German team took the lead and Argentina was suppressed by the German team's overall offensive, many commentators said:
"Germany scored first."
"Even Velarde couldn't stop the ball from being born. He didn't even touch the ball in the whole process, and he couldn't direct his teammates to make an effective interception."
"It seems that flying back and forth to Europe to participate in the European Super Cup still has an impact on Willard. Even if he can cope with it physically, mentally, after the long flight back and forth, his nervous reaction is still a little slower. Compared with Germany’s past ultra-fast reaction speed, it is not as good as before.”
"It seems that it will not be easy for Velarde to lead Argentina past the German team!"
