In the game against Argentina, the Hong Kong team, which played all substitutes, lost without any suspense, and they lost by a huge score of 0:3.
But judging from the score, it should be a complete victory, but in fact it is not.
Argentina's first goal was scored in stoppage time in the first half. Gago's long-range shot from the outside was saved by goalkeeper Liang Xingjie after Gago's cross clearance, and Aguero scored with a supplementary shot.
Looking at the slow motion, Aguero committed a foul first and scored the goal after forcibly knocking down the Hong Kong team's starting defender Su Weiquan. The referee ruled that the goal was valid, which seemed to be biased.
Argentina's second goal came in the 30th minute of the second half. Gago passed the ball to Messi, who passed the ball to Aguero, and Aguero's shot broke.
The last goal came 2 minutes after the second goal. Messi broke through the middle and then crossed the ball diagonally. Di Maria shot hard in the penalty area.
What is obvious to all is that the Hong Kong team held on tenaciously until more than 70 minutes into the match, when they ran out of energy and were defeated by their opponents in succession.
Being able to perform like this with an all-substitute lineup is enough for the Hong Kong team to earn respect.

Basically, after seeing the result of the match, the world's media believed that Hong Kong, China was doomed. It mainly depends on how many goals were conceded and when they finally conceded the goal.

The quarter-finals will be held over two days. Colombia will play Peru at two o'clock in the afternoon on July 17, Argentina will play Uruguay at six o'clock in the evening, Hong Kong will play Brazil in the afternoon of the next day, and Venezuela will play Chile in the evening.
The time is arranged at two o'clock in the afternoon, which is not embarrassing or embarrassing, mainly to facilitate the live broadcast in Europe with time difference, and to achieve higher ratings and commercial value.
"Bah bang bang!" Baggio clapped his hands, called the players together who had been resting for a while, and said: "Everyone is whispering and complaining. This is still good. The 1994 World Cup in the United States was due to the time difference between the east and west coasts.
, there have been several games scheduled to start at 12 o'clock at noon, which sounds like a joke, but in the face of commercial interests, many things need to be compromised!"
After a pause, Baggio said: "However, I tell you from the experience of a player who participated in the 1994 World Cup and experienced prime time matches that violated the body's biological clock. It is precisely because of this arrangement of events that for us,
Say, it will be more beneficial! You should first think about the scientific principles behind what I say!"
After thinking about it, Chen Zhuo raised his hand, and after receiving Baggio's agreement, he said: "The general principle, I remember Rebecca told me, is that if the sugar and fat content in people's lunches are too high, they will stimulate insulin.
and bile secretion, which overwhelms the human internal organs and reduces the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood, resulting in a decrease in oxygen content in the brain, making people easily tired. Over time, people develop conditioned reflexes, probably for this reason..."
"Okay! Patton is right! This is actually the real reason why people get sleepy after lunch time! Why do I say it will be more beneficial to us? As Patton said, South American players have lived here for a long time, and they
Conditioned reflexes have been formed during this period, but for those of us who are not from South America, we will also have a small amount of conditioned reflexes, but it is not insurmountable!"

"Yeah, that's right, don't eat potatoes. Potatoes are high in starch. Eating them at night will help you sleep, but eating them at noon will make you sleepy!" Rebecca said as she circled and outlined the recipes written by Baggio.
"Chicken, fish, and seafood contain tyrosine, which plays a decisive role in keeping the brain sharp in thinking, memory, and wakefulness. These are the main side dishes, and green high-fiber vegetables, such as peppers, carrots, spinach, etc., can ensure that the brain
Cells receive sufficient oxygen to keep people energetic throughout the afternoon. These must also be matched..."
"In terms of staple food, you'd better eat whole-wheat bread. After meals, eat pineapples, oranges, lemons and other fruits containing a lot of vitamins, which can also eliminate nervous system fatigue. Don't eat bananas and sunflower seeds. These have the effect of inhibiting brain thinking.
It can easily cause drowsiness..."
“In terms of meal order, eat meat first, then vegetables, and finally staple food. Don’t eat too much. Before and between games, in addition to eating fruits, you can also eat some whole-wheat bread or chocolate to replenish energy...
"
Baggio said with satisfaction: "Very good! Also, Rebecca, remember the task I assigned you. Find someone to print a huge banner and place it on the two teams in the name of protesting against the impact of commercial interests on the wonderful game.
In the stands facing the goal, there is also one behind the Brazilian team’s bench..."
The huge one that Baggio is talking about is a huge yawning portrait. It was hung up in the name of protesting against the impact of commercial interests on the wonderful game. It further stimulated the conditioned reflexes of Brazilian players and caused them to have physiological reactions. Although the reason is not known.
But yawning is indeed contagious...
Haha, this is also an important part of peripheral tactics!

In the two quarter-finals on the first day, Colombia was tied 0:0 by Peru within 1 minute, and Argentina and Uruguay tied 1:1. In the final penalty kick, Group A Colombia and Argentina
Both were defeated!
Seeing the huge protest image in the stands, Brazilian coach Menezes couldn't help covering his mouth and yawning. For the sake of commercial interests, he is really willing to give up anything!
Seeing this action of the head coach, the players on the bench also yawned and stretched.
In Brazil's final roster for the Copa America, Santos, AC Milan and Inter Milan each have three players, the most among any club. Barcelona and Chelsea each have two players selected.
Against the Hong Kong team, Menezes was not too careless, and all the main players without injuries played.
The No. 1 goalkeeper is Cesar who plays for Inter Milan. The four defenders are Maicon and Lucio of Inter Milan. The slightly injured central defender Thiago Silva also started, and Fenerba
Andre Santos of the Che team is a big star in a big team.
Among the midfielders and frontcourt players, in addition to the "dream quartet" of Santos' Ganso and Neymar, AC Milan's Pato and Robinho, the two defensive midfielders are Chelsea's Ramirez and Liverpool's Lu
Casleva.
Against the Hong Kong team, Menezes used a 4-2-3-1 high-pressure attack formation in the frontcourt, with Maicon and Andre Santos frequently providing assists from both sides.
(six)
Among the 11 players, Pato, Robinho and Silva are Chen Zhuo's teammates in AC Milan. Cesar, Maicon and Lucio are also acquaintances who have played against each other more than once on the court and met for the first time.
, that is, only Ganso, Neymar, Andre Santos, Ramires and Lucas Leiva.
"Hi, welcome to the Premier League!" Lucas Leiva said as he shook hands with Chen Zhuo.
"Don't get hurt, we'll deal with him together when we get to the Premier League!" Ramirez, who then shook hands with Chen Zhuo, welcomed his new teammate.
"Don't be in a hurry to return home, wait until we get together!" Pato said with a smile.
"That's right! It's hard to come here, let your coach go first, how many days do you wait for us..." Robinho also said jokingly.
The words sounded like welcome, but they were actually full of provocation, and the relationship was also because they were relatively familiar.
"You guys went to play last night, and your eyes were bloodshot!" Chen Zhuo whispered to Robinho.
"Really?" Obviously Robinho was not idle the night before the game, otherwise he would not have been stunned for a moment.
"Hey! Don't be weak!" Chen Zhuo had already shaken hands with the next player, but still turned to Robinho and teased.
"Boy! Be careful!" Lucio snorted viciously. He was once severely hit by Chen Zhuo with a ball in the Serie A match, and he has yet to avenge this attack.
"That's right, you actually ran away. What a coward!" Maicon also supported.
After shaking hands, Chen Zhuo turned to look at the Brazilian team players and suddenly covered his mouth and yawned...
(seven)
Affected by Chen Zhuo, players yawned one after another, and even the referee had the urge to yawn.
After forcing himself to endure it for a moment, the referee signaled to the assistant on the sidelines and then blew the whistle to announce the start of the game.
The Brazilian team took the lead to kick off. Perhaps due to the influence of the yawns before the game, the players were slow to enter the state. In the 2nd minute, Neymar's shot from 35 meters away from the goal was weak and was damaged by Rong Aping's big foot.
In the 5th minute, Robinho dribbled the ball from the left and cut inside. During the scramble, he touched the ball to midfielder Ramirez who was inserted in the back row. Ramirez shot a cold shot from the penalty area and the ball missed the ball again.
In the 7th minute, Pato broke into the left side of the penalty area and then knocked calmly. Neymar fired with his left foot from the penalty area and the ball flew over the lintel. In the 16th minute, Neymar's corner kick was blocked by goalkeeper Liang Xingjie's fists.
Out, Thiago Silva's right-footed volley in front of the penalty area was blocked by Chen Zhuo and Lin Zhijian's body.
Minutes passed, and the Brazilian team only had 5 shots, but the midfielder made 8 pass errors. To describe them as sleepwalking is not an exaggeration. (To be continued.)
