Chapter 2157 The so-called superstar(1/2)

 "Holy shit? Argentina is two goals behind the Netherlands?"

"Let me go...Merry is going to be eliminated in the quarterfinals again? What does this mean? From now on, Merry might as well change his name to 'Eighth Brother'!"

"The game has been over 70 minutes, and Argentina is still two goals behind. It's about to end..."

After the recovery training, the Chinese team players learned the real-time score of the match between Argentina and the Netherlands.

When they heard that the Dutch team was leading Argentina by two goals, many people couldn't believe their ears.

Then they all picked up their mobile phones to ask for confirmation.

When I saw the score, I still couldn't believe my eyes.

It's not that they look down on the Dutch team.

From a comparison of strength, Argentina is indeed stronger than the Dutch team.

Of course, its strength is limited.

Mainly because of this powerful dialogue, the Dutch team felt "one-sided".

There is no need to look at the process, just looking at the score is enough to explain a lot of things.

Is Argentina also a paper tiger?

In fact, they have the same virtues as the English cats?

The Chinese players were shocked, but also a little gloating.

Because of the competitive relationship between Julay and Melli, many Chinese players actually want Argentina to lose.

In this way, Meliko is not qualified to compete with our Hu Lai for the title of who is the best in the world.

After Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia in its first World Cup group match, many Chinese players hoped that Argentina could continue its efforts, create greater glory, and strive to lose another game and not even qualify for the group stage.

In the end, when the Argentina team narrowly qualified from the group stage, they were still regretful...

Now seeing that after seventy-five minutes of the game, the Netherlands still led Argentina by two goals, the thought came to their minds again:

Argentina must be finished this time!

※※※

The stadium was filled with loud shouts, including cheers from Dutch fans and roars from Argentinian fans.

The game time is getting shorter and shorter, leaving Argentina with fewer and fewer opportunities.

Argentinian fans can only cheer for their team through cheers in the stands.

Argentina, which was two goals behind, had no choice but to attack desperately.

The Dutch team, on the other hand, shrinks its defense and plays defensive counterattacks if conditions permit. If not, they only defend without counterattacks.

Anyway, they are now two goals ahead. As long as they don't make mistakes, their hope of winning the game will greatly increase.

Melli is dribbling the ball forward, and next to him are players from the Dutch team.

In front is a complete defense line composed of four people.

Behind him are two Dutch players who are chasing him.

Although he was trapped in a tight siege, Melli did not choose to pass the football out, but continued to dribble.

Until he pushed further towards the Dutch left back Lorenzo Verritt, who stepped forward to steal the ball.

He just distributed the football into the space behind Verritt.

Ramon Cantero, who followed up on the right, ran in after the football and passed the ball directly without stopping!

The football rolled toward the center of the turf.

But he was blocked by Dutch center back Jens Keating with his trailing heel!

The football bounced and flew outside the penalty area. Argentinian right back Pablo Osqui rushed up and volleyed directly towards the football!

Danny Drew uses his body to block the football!

The football blocked by Drew bounced high, and then passed through the header relay of a group of Dutch "masters", and was finally successfully cleared out of the sideline.

"Argentina's offensive has picked up during this period! But it's not easy to break through the Dutch team's goal! Danny Drew is like a wall blocking their path!"

In the TV broadcast, Melli was clapping his hands hard and shouting something to his teammates.

"Melli is encouraging his teammates... don't just encourage! You are the captain, number one star and core of this team, you should stand up personally!"

When the narrator faced Merry, his tone was much harsher.

This is normal.

Who makes Melli one of the top players in football today?

Naturally, everyone's expectations for him are greater than for ordinary players.

The requirements are also higher.

While you enjoy the cheers and worship, you must also bear the corresponding responsibilities and pressure.

Especially when this kind of team is in trouble, if Melli, as a superstar, doesn't step forward, can he still expect his teammates to help him?

What is a superstar?

It means having the ability to save the team in difficult and desperate situations.

If you can't do this, you can at best be considered a first-rate star, but definitely not a super player.

To put it bluntly, if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

If Argentina is eventually eliminated, based on Melli's performance in this game, he will definitely be sprayed after the game.

At that time, people will not care about how many brilliant achievements and incredible performances he has had before. He will always be nailed to the pillar of shame until he comes down to earth next time at the World Cup to break the curse. Otherwise, people will keep mentioning him.

Sleepwalking throughout the quarter-finals of the 2034 World Cup in China, sitting with hands on hips and watching his team being eliminated without doing anything.

Before this attack, Argentina had another attack, in which Melli dribbled the ball from the right to the center, which was the "Melli Corridor" he was familiar with.

There was no problem with the pass in front of him, but the last shot hit high and wide, and did not threaten the Dutch team's goal at all.

At that time, there was a lot of criticism in the commentary box.

The TV broadcast showed a close-up of Melli, who was now loudly encouraging his teammates.

But the commentators are right. At this time, what his teammates need is not his verbal encouragement, but his actions.

People say that Melly can do almost anything, so now is the time to prove it.

※※※

"...The game has reached the 85th minute, and the score is still 2:0. The Dutch team is leading! Argentina is pressing almost all the way. Under such circumstances, as long as the Dutch team can launch a successful counterattack, they will be completely killed.

Game! But in fact, even if the Dutch team does not score, at this time point, the score of 2:0 is likely to kill the game..."

While the commentator said this, Argentina on the field was still attacking.

Melly frequently dropped back to get the ball and used his own dribbling to organize the offense.

He is the best in the world in terms of ball ability, but now he must rely on this "Sword of Heaven".

Melly got the football again and took the ball from the wing and cut in diagonally.

He soon faced the first defender, Dutch defensive midfielder Mick Hardveld.

However, Hardveld did not step up to steal the ball, but stood in front of Melly.

The reason why he didn't dare to rush was because he was afraid of being passed by Merry.

Sure enough, Melli made a fake move in front of Hardveld to break through in a straight line, which deceived Hardveld into taking a step back.

Melly just feinted a shot. After Hardveld made space, he continued to dribble the ball diagonally towards the center.

Hardveld saw that Merry didn't come over, so he could only press forward again, but he no longer dared to make a move rashly, so he could only run beside him.

He planned to close the door and defend with his teammate Van der Stern - if Melly continued to dribble the ball like this, he would enter Van der Stern's defense zone.

The latter was already waiting for him in front of the penalty area.

But just when everyone thought Melli was going to continue dribbling, Melli, who had been immersed in dribbling, suddenly sent a through ball with his left foot!

The football quickly passed by Hardveld and found the space between the Dutch center back Danny Drew and the left back Verritt!

To be precise, it was Ramon Cantero who stepped forward in that space!

Veriter, who was squeezed behind by Cantero, stretched out his foot to destroy the ball, but missed it - Cantero led the ball into the penalty area first!

Danny Drew rushed over to intercept, but Cantero got ahead of him and stabbed goalkeeper Tone Schulman in the face!

The football flew past Schulman and into the goal!

"Hit the goal - the ball goes in!!! Cantero!! He pulled a goal back for Argentina! Beautiful goal, wonderful assist from Melli! After attracting the attention of all the Dutch team's defense, he suddenly

Unknowingly, he sent a penetrating through ball! It caught the Dutch defense off guard!"

"In the 86th minute, Argentina scored! 1:2! The difference between the two teams was reduced to one goal! Considering that the injury time will be longer, the suspense of this game is back!"

After completing the assist, Melli pointed to the football in the goal and reminded Cantero not to celebrate, but to pick up the football first and let the game resume quickly.
To be continued...
