They can't be like Kahn and Roy Keane, who can intimidate their teammates with their domineering attitude and let them play according to their own intentions; nor can Ballack and Gerrard stand up in adversity and use practical actions. The courage to boost morale; not to mention the low-key personality of Raul and Lahm, but they can serve as a silent leader to inspire their teammates to fight bravely! This is Riquelme's shortcomings and weaknesses in character, and it is also the biggest obstacle that prevents him from becoming Maradona's true successor!
It is precisely for this reason that compared with Maradona, Riquelmen's introverted and aloof character determines that he can only exist as the core of tactics and can never become a qualified team leader! Similarly, faced with the unfavorable situation of being two goals behind, Riquelme still handled the ball methodically according to his accustomed pace and rhythm, without thinking at all about what he should do at this time to motivate his teammates and boost morale, and help the team reverse the situation. Turn defeat into victory!
In other words, Riquelme believes that his teammates can complete the reversal as long as they stick to their current tactics. However, Riquelme overlooked a very important point, that is, not everyone can be as calm and impatient as he is when the score is behind!
What's more, under Brazil's highly targeted arrangements, Argentina's current tactics have proven to be problematic, and changes must be made to have any hope of a comeback. Therefore, it is naturally difficult for Riquelme to convince his teammates by maintaining the status quo!
Solin, Figueroa and Gonzalo Rodriguez, who played for Villarreal with Riquelme, witnessed firsthand how the other side turned the yellow submarine that was originally just a La Liga lifter into a A strong team that cannot be underestimated, and players who even have tickets to the Champions League will naturally obey and implement all the latter's decisions, but other Argentina internationals may not necessarily think so. In their eyes, although Riquelme is indeed very capable, he is not a qualified leader at all and cannot lead Argentina out of the current predicament!
Like Brazil, when there is no iron-blooded coach or a spiritual leader to lead the team, Argentina's locker room will be full of gangs, which will have a very serious adverse impact on the team's cohesion and combat effectiveness. For example, now, when Brazil takes a two-goal lead in less than 20 minutes, and Riquelme, who is the core of the team's tactics, these people's minds have become active and they are no longer willing to stick around Riquelme. Mei ran away, but began to think in her mind about how to make herself outstanding and different!
An Argentina team like this, which plays well and plays well in the world, but has different thoughts when encountering difficulties, naturally cannot be Brazil's opponent!
The reason why Argentina, whose players were not united, did not lose more in the first half was not because Brazil got carried away after taking a two-goal lead, but because God secretly helped them - it turned out that Frankfurt's local team in the federation There was a sudden heavy rain when the cup final started. Although the organizers closed the roof immediately to ensure that the game could proceed smoothly, what they did not expect was that the drainage system of the Forest Stadium roof malfunctioned at this time, causing the roof to The accumulated water cannot be drained smoothly!
Just like that, when Brazil was leading 2-0, a crack opened in a corner of the stadium roof due to the force of gravity from the rain! The accumulated rainwater flowed down this gap, forming a waterfall in the air, directly raining on the corner area on the left side of the Argentina goal!
The impact of this accident on Brazil is not insignificant. You know, Brazil's previous two goals were launched from the right side of the front court, and now this side has been flooded by water. The difficulty for them to continue to open a breakthrough from here has naturally increased several levels!
Therefore, Brazil did not take advantage of the disunity of ideas within the Argentine team to pursue the victory and further expand its lead. Even if they want to do this, it will be difficult to pose a sufficient threat to Argentina's goal when the attack on the right is severely blocked.
Fortunately, the drainage system of the Forest Stadium is of excellent quality and the condition of the field is also very good, so the players did not suffer accidental injuries in such a water-filled field. However, even so, when the game entered the half-time period, the organizers who could not repair the roof could only send staff to clear the water under the "waterfall". This scene was broadcast through the camera to everyone watching the Confederations Cup final. In front of the audience, everyone can't help but start to wonder whether a similar situation will occur in the World Cup held in Germany next year!
"It turns out that the quality of German man-made things is sometimes not up to par!" George said with emotion as he looked at the waterfall scene in a corner of the stadium. "I estimate that early tomorrow morning, many media will be worried about the quality of the World Cup venues. ”
To be honest, it is rare in international football to hear of leaks in stadium roofs. But this kind of thing happened in the final of the Confederations Cup, and what is extremely dramatic is that this is a stadium built by Germans, who are known for their rigor and seriousness!
"George, you'd better not let Mr. Beckenbauer hear this, otherwise I think he will be very unhappy." Elizabeth reminded kindly, "You know, Germany wants to prove that they have the ability to host this World Cup. But it took a lot of effort. Now that such a big mistake has appeared, Mr. Beckenbauer must be in a very bad mood."
"Ellie, I think Franz is not in the mood to care about my actions now." Looking at Beckenbauer, who appeared on the live TV screen with a pale face, George shrugged nonchalantly and said, "But In this way, Argentina can stay on the court for a while longer. Of course, if coach Pekerman cannot seize this opportunity to adjust his tactics and let Riquelme get rid of the opponent's encirclement, then the only question is whether Argentina will succeed in this game. The game will be lost to Brazil by a few goals."
Although this sudden heavy rain saved Argentina from being defeated by Brazil in the first half, when the second half of the game began and the players from both sides changed places to fight again, the Pampas Eagles naturally did not enjoy this benefit. It will be difficult to escape the end of failure!
Ronaldinho and Adriano scored in the 59th and 63rd minutes of the game respectively, helping Brazil expand the score to 4-0. On the Argentina side, Aimar, who only came on as a substitute, took the risk of being kicked by Lucio and scored a face-saving goal, but he still could not change the ending of being massacred by his archrival!
In this way, when the referee Mitchell announced that this unusual rainy battle had come to an end, Argentina, which was suppressed by Brazil, finally lost the Confederations Cup final 1 to 4, continuing the continuation of its victory in the America's Cup in 1993. Since then, he has had the tragic fate of missing the championship trophy in international competitions!
