People who have never played against Messi will never understand the terror of facing him head-on.
You can always only see a small part of it on TV. Even if you look at his extraordinary highlights, you will only become more and more confused. Because his extraordinary skills have reached the point of "the beauty of application lies in one mind."
At this point, he doesn't have any extraordinary routines. He always adapts to the situation, targeting the opponent, his own physical fitness, the progress of the game, and even his own mood.
His legs, arms and torso seem to be able to be combined in any combination for the needs of confrontation. Compared with Ronaldo's pendulum style, Ronaldinho's ox tail, and Cristiano Ronaldo's bicycle riding, Messi does not seem to have a signature passing move, but he does.
He is a master recognized by everyone. This is called "there are tricks to win without tricks".
In this regard, Wang Ai, who is known as the offensive kaleidoscope, is not as good as him. Many passing moves can still see the shadow of other stars in Wang Ai, and they cannot be traced. More often, Wang Ai will use relatively simple moves.
The method is extraordinary, such as relying on his physical fitness to attack hard, but Messi does not have this condition.
His body contains explosive power that shocked the world. He impressed the same talented superstar when he was just starting out. He is at his peak, and the Ballon d'Or vote is three times ahead of Lampard's Ronaldo, who is the "most offensive midfielder".
Erdinho, who actually said to Kobe Bryant, "He is the best in the world."
Anyone who underestimates Messi will be taught a lesson by him. Anyone who watches TV and studies Messi cannot understand the incredible feeling and huge setback in confidence enveloped by his free and easy smile.
Although Wang Ai had tried his best to tell his teammates about Messi's power before the game, and even used high-frequency running to try his best to simulate Messi's attacking methods to make his teammates more vigilant. However, shortly after the start, Chinese team veteran Luo Tongliang was also the team's defensive general.
The strongest player was scared to death by Messi.
At that time, Messi broke through to the top of the penalty area. With Luo Tongliang, Feng Xiaoting in front, and Zhao Xuri on the side, he seemed to want to pass the ball directly to Aguero who was eager to try. However, he suddenly faced an unusual "football"
With a stomp, the football unexpectedly changed its direction, and the three big men were all deceived into losing their center of gravity. If Wang Ai hadn't rushed over and picked up the football from the short pass, he jumped up and used it.
If the head is out of the danger zone, the result will be unpredictable.
And it was less than a minute into the show!
Lao Gao lowered his arms, Lao Tang raised his butt, and the coaching staff was silent. They were all looking at the little man on the field who had returned to "mediocre" and was stuck in the crowd. Even the two people who passed him after him
Wang Ai, who advanced past half-time and sent a wonderful through ball, was unable to divert their attention.
Maybe it’s because Wang Ai is too familiar with him, maybe Wang Ai is so stable that he loses his burst, maybe Messi’s burst in the front of the center is more deadly. In short, the Argentine fans are rejoicing in the stands, while the Chinese fans seem to have not responded yet.
Come to God.
Many people either raised their heads or lowered their heads to watch the replay, feeling the fatal threat from Messi at that moment.
The lineup sent by the Chinese team today is a combination of forwards Gao Lin and Mao Jianqing, four midfield captains, backcourt Luo Tongliang, Feng Xiaoting, Zheng Zhi, Zhang Yonghai and goalkeeper Zeng Cheng. It is a complete overseas team and the strongest Chinese team at present...
…The strongest individually, the strongest combination, the strongest age, and the strongest physical reserves.
Fans joked about the "early final", but the Chinese team really prepared it as if it were a final.
Not to mention, in Lao Gao's last-minute fine-tuning, Mao Jianqing was required to retreat appropriately and play as the nine and a half, using his mobility and ball control abilities to strengthen the thickness of the midfield. The Tai Chi Bagua Formation changed for the first time since its launch.
It's 442, it's 451.
This is not only a key attack on the soul of the Argentine team, but also a further refinement and adjustment of this formation by Gao after years of research.
Regarding the most important issue of Wang Ai's position, the coaching staff made the decision after consulting various opinions to let Wang Ai attack in the first half and defend in the second half. The consideration was that although Messi has a record of scoring goals in the first two or three minutes
, but most of the goals occurred in the last 15 minutes of the second half. This is because after the defensive players' physical fitness declined, his dribbling became more powerful. The coaching staff considered Wang Ai's bottomless physical fitness, so he was asked to play.
In the first half, try to attack as much as possible to gain the upper hand, and in the second half, return to the rear to reinforce the defense.
Wang Ai had no objection to this arrangement. It was a reasonable arrangement based on solid data, and Messi and the Argentina national team were not so consistent with Barcelona. However, before the game, he found that the Chinese team's tactics were conservative, or that they were not
I felt a little worried when I was silently arranging my body rhythm for the final, so I asked Luo Tongliang in particular: "Brother, do you know what's going on in your heart?"
Luo Tongliang's answer was: "I will never make a mistake."
The implication is that I can guarantee that there will be no problems in normal defense, but in abnormal situations... I really can't guarantee it!
Wang Ai sighed in his heart, this was the best answer he could get. If it were Zanetti, the answer wouldn't be much different from this one, so Wang Ai followed the coaching staff's arrangements to prepare, while secretly praying in his heart
Don't worry, Messi. In the second half, we will show off our skills face to face!
But how can the opponent obey the arrangements of the Chinese team? While the Chinese team is studying the Argentine team and Messi, the Argentine team is also studying the Chinese team and Wang Ai. Compared with the unity of the Chinese team, the Argentine team is more like "a
"People's team", so, of course, motivating Messi and making good use of Messi is the key.
So you thought Messi would score in the second half, but I didn’t! I encouraged him at the beginning!
Thus, there was this thrilling confrontation.
Messi fell into a brief silence, as if a killer hidden in the night. When a dead ball appeared, Wang Aello recalled his defensive teammates, Feng Xiaoting elongated his face, Luo Tongliang stared, Zhao Xuri moved to the center from time to time, and Messi
After another quick start to try to meet his teammates and was forcibly intercepted by Chen Tao, Mao Jianqing controlled the ball in front and Gao Lin cooperated to attack the Argentine defense. Wang Ai quickly glanced at Chen Tao.
Chen Tao shook his head slightly and looked back.
Wang Ai nodded and turned to look at the sidelines, finding Lao Gao's small eyes twenty meters away.
Lao Gao crossed his shoulders with his hands, his expression remained motionless, and he just raised his chin.
Wang Ai turned around again, shook his head and glanced at Chen Tao.
Chen Tao's shoulders suddenly relaxed, he nodded and looked back.
As a result, these two comrades who have fought side by side for 16 years, No. 10 and No. 11 of the Chinese team, silently intertwined, one running forward and the other running backward.
Ten meters in front of the penalty area, Wang Ai turned around and stood in front of Luo Tongliang and Feng Xiaoting!
Messi, who came back with the ball, unexpectedly noticed the substitution. He raised the corner of his mouth and smiled. Wang Ai bowed slightly and squinted his eyes.
