i want to be king

Chapter 366 If it was Su Dong, what would he do?
Manizales, a city in western Colombia.

The biennial South American U20 Youth Football Championship is ushering in a focus match.

South America's two overlords, Brazil against Argentina.

No one can deny that these two teams are the most powerful teams in South America, and their youth teams have naturally attracted the attention of the world, and major clubs have also sent scouts to the scene to inspect the players.

Although they are all young players under the age of 20, the strength of both sides is not bad.

The Brazilian team has strong rookies such as Sobis, Rafinha, Felipe Luis, and the Argentine team also has young players such as Messi, Aguero, Gago, Zabaleta and Garay.

The two youth teams continued the rivalry complex of the adult national team, and the fierce battle on the court was in full swing.

……

The two head coaches of the Argentine youth national team, Pancho Ferraro and Tocali, both stood in front of the coaching bench. The former folded his arms around his chest, while the latter frowned, watching the game.

Now it is the second half, the score is zero to one, Argentina is behind.

The game was very dull, the first half was zero to zero, but in the second half Brazil scored the first goal. With a free kick in the backcourt, Fernandino made a marking error by the Argentine defender.

Ferraro and Tocali are hesitating, should they replace Messi?
For this 17-year-old teenager, the two are also quite a headache.

If you want to say that the most eye-catching player of the Argentine team in this youth championship, it must be Messi.

In the first game against Venezuela and against Bolivia in this game, Messi came off the bench and scored two goals in both games, helping Argentina beat these two opponents [-]-[-]. The Barcelona teenager was elected the best player of the game.

But in the third game against Peru, Ferraro and Tocali arranged for Messi to start. As a result, his performance was sluggish and the team drew with their opponents.

So far, the Argentine youth team has eight wins and eight draws in eight games, and Messi's performance is also ups and downs.

This is not difficult to understand, because the opponents he faces and the teammates around him are all 19 years old at the youngest.

At this stage of the youth team, it is indeed very difficult for a 17-year-old to leapfrog against a 19- or 20-year-old opponent.

Not to mention anything else, Aguero, another young player in the Argentine team, has not shown a good performance so far.

Against Brazil, a strong enemy, both Ferraro and Tokali chose to let Messi substitute.

Now, maybe it's time to let him play.

……

"Leo." Ferraro shouted behind him.

Hearing the shout, Messi stood up quickly, took off his coat, and ran to the two coaches quickly.

The dual coaches are only temporary. Tocali will soon go to the national team to become Pekerman's assistant coach, and Ferraro will lead the Argentine national youth team to the Netherlands World Youth Championship.

The premise is that tonight, Argentina can win Brazil and get No.3.

Brazil and Colombia have already qualified ahead of schedule, and Argentina must win this battle in order to get third.

Messi is very aware of the importance of this game. Not only the whole team, but even in Argentina, also attaches great importance to this game, because it represents the competition between Argentina and Brazil, two rival teams, and young players in the future.

"I heard that your best friend in Barcelona is Su Dong?" Ferraro looked at Messi and asked.

Messi also looked at this strange head coach, who joined the team in a hurry before the game.

But the Argentine teenager still nodded, "He is my role model, and also the goal I study and strive to catch up with."

Messi still clearly remembers that after Su Dong won the World Player of the Year, he sent a text message to Su Dong, and Su Dong replied, "I'll wait for you!"

Ferraro looked at Messi and nodded, "Very good, kid, then just think about it, what would Su Dong do if he was in this situation?"

Messi watched the game on the field, he clearly knew how close the game was, and Brazil's strength was really too strong.

Looking at the scoreboard again, it was zero to one, and Argentina was behind. If they did not catch up, Argentina would lose the qualification to enter the World Youth Championship finals. This would be a painful blow to Argentina and even domestic fans.

"He will work hard to make changes and lead the team to reverse the opponent!" Messi replied very confidently.

"What about you?" Ferraro asked.

Messi took a deep breath, raised his head, looked directly at the coach, and replied loudly: "Just like him!"

His tone was extremely firm.

"Very well, go and fulfill your promise!" Ferraro said.

……

Watching Messi run to the sidelines, Ferraro nodded in relief.

"What a good seedling!" Ferra Rozan said.

"Yeah." Tokali nodded, "He's a bit introverted, but I've talked to him a few times, and I can see that Su Dong has a great influence on him, and I even think it may surpass everyone else."

"But hasn't Sudong only joined Barcelona for half a year?" Ferraro was puzzled.

"Pancho, you have to know that some people are born with extraordinary appeal. Su Dong can surpass Ronaldo and become the youngest Mr. Double in history at the age of 20. Do you think he is something ordinary people like us can imagine?"

Ferraro nodded approvingly.

Nowadays, the whole world is familiar with Su Dong, and the fans are even more familiar with it, but for everyone, Su Dong is like a figure living in legend.

Even far surpassing Ronaldo back then.

Because there are too many mysteries hidden in him, some people even say that there is a mysterious power from the east in him.

Who knows?

……

While the two coaches were discussing about Messi, after being replaced for less than a minute, Messi suddenly took the ball and drove straight in, trying to break through Felipe Luis and dribble the ball into the right side of the penalty area.

The Brazilian left-back had no choice but to foul, tripping Messi and giving Argentina a free kick in the frontcourt.

Midfielder Pablo Barrientos' swift free-kick created chaos in Brazil's penalty area as captain Zabaleta grabbed the spot and headed home from close range to equalize for Argentina.

Ferraro and Tocali, who were standing on the sidelines, were dumbfounded.

Messi!

It's that amazing Messi again!
After he came off the bench, he changed the direction of the game again.

Argentina equalized!

……

Under the instigation of Messi, Argentina launched a fierce attack on Brazil.

No one can stop Messi's footsteps.

When the Argentine teenager got the ball, he was like a bull, regardless of 21 [-], just rush forward.

Only 10 minutes later, after Garay successfully intercepted the ball passed to Sobies in the backcourt, he instigated a quick counterattack.

Argentina shifted continuously, sent the ball to the frontcourt, and handed it to Barrientos.

Barrientos made a cross from the right side of the front of the penalty area to the middle. Messi quickly followed up and calmly pushed after getting the ball.

The ball entered the lower left corner of the goal of the Brazilian National Youth Team in a straight line!

Two to one!

reverse!

After scoring the goal, Messi ran all the way excitedly, his wet long hair was thrown behind his head, looking extremely elegant.

In the end, the Argentine teenager rushed straight to the sidelines, clenched his fists and waved.

It turns out that this is what it's like to be a hero!

Now he finally understands why Su Dong is able to perform better and better. Even though he has won the double football player, he still maintains a high degree of self-discipline and hard work.

Because, being a hero is really cool!
Especially being the savior in such a crucial game, that feeling is simply amazing!

……

The game is over.

With Messi's outstanding performance after coming off the bench, Argentina reversed the Brazil team [-]-[-].

After the game, Messi caused a powerful earthquake in South America, especially in Argentina.

The whole of Argentina is amazed by the outstanding performance of this young Barcelona teenager, especially in key games, helping the team to reverse Brazil, which made Messi become the hero of the team and the darling of domestic fans.

The Ole newspaper interviewed Messi after the game.

The Argentine teenager answered many questions in the interview, among which he emphasized that the one he wants to thank most is Su Dong.

"At Barcelona, ​​he was the teammate who helped me the most and also my best friend."

"Many people may not know it. I have been living in his house and training with him. He is my friend and also my goal. I hope that one day, I can be like him on the podium of the Zurich Opera House."

Messi's interview quickly spread from Argentina to Europe.

European media have long reported that Messi, who performed well in the key finals, now mentions Su Dong, which naturally attracts more attention. After all, after being elected as the double football player, Su Dong's every move has attracted the attention of the media and fans.

When the Daily Sports News showed Messi's interview to Su Dong, Su Dong smiled and said that Messi was too modest.

"He's the most talented talent I've ever seen and I'm sure he can achieve his goals."

But Su Dong also reminded Messi that he needs to continue to strengthen his body.

"If he wants to make himself perform better, then he must strengthen his body and confrontation ability, which is the basis for a professional player to gain a foothold in the professional arena."

…………

…………

As if in response to Messi, in the subsequent three rounds of La Liga's No.20 match, Su Dong was very active at the beginning. In the second minute, he volleyed vigorously and created his opponent's own goal.

No. 30 minutes, Su Dong assisted Jiuli again and scored.

Nine minutes later, Ronaldinho's wonderful pass helped Sudong break Zaragoza's goal.

After changing sides to fight again in the second half, Galetti scored for Zaragoza, which was also the first time Barcelona was scored after the winter break.

But in the No.701 minute, Harvey used a corner kick to assist Marcos to score again.

Four to one!

Barcelona beat Zaragoza on the road with four goals despite being broken without conceding a goal.

With two passes and one shot, Su Dong was once again elected as the player of the game.

He more or less meant to compete with Messi.

And the pace of the knockout round of the Champions League round of [-] is getting closer and closer.
