ball magic

Eriksson's substitution is undoubtedly full of courage.

After Conceicao came on the field, Lazio finally stopped fighting with Inter Milan on the right side. From the original lame one leg, the two legs became balanced, so he was able to walk freely, even striding like flying...

No, said Zanetti, I won't allow it.

No, said Figo, I won't allow it.

If you want to name the right-wing combination of Zanetti and Figo, "the most elegant right-wing partner in history" is definitely the most appropriate description.

Both are good at dribbling and have delicate footwork. In fact, if there is no more suitable choice on the right, Zanetti's footwork can completely play midfield.It is precisely because of these similarities that Figo and Zanetti played a lot of showy operations after they started working together.

So elegant, so coquettish, how about defense?

This has to ask Zanetti another nickname——

In addition to "pupil", his most resounding nickname is "tractor".It means to run and fight like a tractor in the competition. Although the speed is not top-notch, it is not just a "fast horse" that can break through him!

Lazio switched the offense to Inter Milan's right. Rafael also switched positions with Simeone at the moment, coming from the left to the center. He said he was waiting for an opportunity to respond, but in fact he was watching Figo and Zanetti's performance.

When Zanetti intercepted the ball, he did not choose to dribble the ball to the bottom, but passed the ball to Rafael. Rafael did not hesitate to pass the ball back to Figo again-Lazio left, and there was an empty space , Figo has rushed halfway.

Conceicao was not as fast as the ball in pursuit, but even if he wins in speed, he can't catch up with the captain of his own national team!

Figo's speed is not top-notch, but his awareness and overall situation are excellent and his extremely excellent technique.For example, at this moment, facing the interception of Lazio captain Giuseppe Favalli, Figo wanted to break through, but he saw Rafael reaching for the ball.

Figo had nothing to think about and passed the ball directly.

There was no Roberto Carlos shovel in this pass, Conceicao could only change the target halfway to force Rafael, but Rafael did not plan to break into the penalty area again——

The ball, runs faster than people.

This 45-degree cross almost accurately bypassed Lazio's defenders and landed on Vieri's sky. Vieri was about to head the goal when he saw Marchegiani kicking and lunging to take off. Yu Hanyong punched the ball with both fists and knocked it out of the small penalty area!

Mihajlovic tried to clear the ball, but without giving him a chance, Sylvester sent the ball into the already crowded penalty area again, and Ronaldo had already rushed over!

The siren sounded again in front of Lazio!

At the critical moment, Fernando Couto blocked the hole of the gun with his body. This time Nedved made no mistakes, even if he kicked the ball towards the opponent's half with a big kick!

But he regretted it almost immediately, because he saw Raphael rushing out!

It was Inter Milan midfielder Bergomi who controlled the ball earlier than Rafael came out. Bergomi passed the ball to Rafael. After receiving the ball, Rafael turned around with the ball and launched a long pass again!

This time he hoisted the ball into the penalty area again!

It is so determined!

In fact, Vieri did not disappoint him again this time!The heavy weapon in this penalty area showed its super lethality, almost rushed away vertically and had just been stuffed to the chest by the ball, causing Cotto, who was not fast enough to defend at the moment, to drive the ball into the goal!

The turmoil of the nets drove the fans of the Nerazzurri crazy!

Vieri rushed to the north stand, opened his arms, like the master of the game, enjoying his moment!

While the fans cheered, Raphael, who was still standing at the place where the long pass was initiated, turned around and gave Bergomi a thumbs up.

The old captain smiled with satisfaction, then raised his hands and gave him two thumbs back.

It's really TM beautiful and coquettish!

Inter Milan's old captain and junior captain boasted to each other without blushing, which made the fans jump up and down, they loved this moment deeply.

They have superstars!

They have a legacy!

They have unity!

They deserve it!

Bielsa held up the binoculars and watched Raphael walk to other teammates after exchanging blows with Bergomi, giving them a simple high-five to celebrate.

Under the night lights of the Meazza Stadium, you can see his bright golden hair and his extremely reserved smile in contrast.This made Bielsa Qingqing raise his eyebrows.

He felt that the Raphael at this moment was contradictory to the Raphael who celebrated with a shoulder throw before.

But this is normal, and every Argentine national has this contradiction in his blood.

He put down the binoculars, and before teeing off again, wrote three numbers in the corner of the little book—

"4, 8, 10."

He admitted that coming to the scene to watch the game this time was really rewarding.When the assistant told him that Rafael was in good physical condition, he was noncommittal. Now that the game has passed more than 20 minutes, he is already amazed by Rafael's running and coverage.

This is not good physical fitness, it is called having one more lung than others!

Besides, what amazed him the most was the old Robson's use of Raphael.Because the old man's tactics are simple and—

It's laissez-faire!

Give him freedom, take him as the core, let him run as he pleases.

When he is late, he can use long passes to command, when he can freely dispatch in the frontcourt, when he can break through and score goals in his favorite No. 10 position, coupled with this terrifying running coverage area, and his Seeing everything, Bielsa couldn't question why the old Robson gave him such freedom!

This old man has something.

What surprised Bielsa, and even made him, a football fanatic, feel the need to chat with old Robson was not because of the use of Rafael by old Robson, but because he could knead Inter Milan into a united The team, as a whole!

Times have changed!

Among the top four teams in the 98 World Cup, three were from Europe. They used overall football and a balanced offensive and defensive system to prove that football is developing towards European overall football.

Passarella wanted to transform Argentina, to build football as a whole, but he failed.

But does that mean overall football doesn't work for Argentina?

Bielsa narrowed his eyes slightly.

What can stop Argentina from advancing has always been division and exclusionism. When Argentina is united, what kind of Argentina team will it be?

After another goal was scored, the smell of gunpowder in the game followed.

It is almost impossible to say who started first on both sides, and the number of fouls on both sides has increased a lot.

In the 29th minute, Raphael came to the left and broke through Pancaro on the left. The next moment Raphael felt the crisis from around him, he immediately chose to cross, but when the ball was sent, he also He was knocked to the ground by Pan Carlo in retaliation.

Because of the principle of favorable offense, the referee did not blow it immediately. Ronaldo got rid of Mihajlovic in the penalty area and was about to shoot, but was interfered by Cotto beside him. The ball hit the post and was missed by Macegi. Yani hugged.

Seeing the referee walking towards Pancaro, Lazio captain Favalli immediately ran to the referee, and Vieri stopped him quickly.

The referee asked Raphael first, because he was directly kicked in the calf. Raphael judged that the problem was not serious, but he still needed to be checked by the team doctor.

The referee nodded, and then came to Pancaro and showed him a yellow card. Inter Milan won a free kick in the frontcourt.

Bergomi, who was running wildly, gave Pan Carlo a warning look immediately after rushing over.

Few people in Italy have the courage to confront an Italian-flagged tycoon like Bergomi, and Pancaro was pulled away by his teammates.

When Bergomi looked at Rafael, he found that the guy's non-slip socks had been untied, and the shin guards had also been taken off for treatment.

The shin guards caught the attention of the old captain.He is no stranger to this shin guard, but he has never seen it.

When he picked it up, he found that the shin guards were incredibly light, but this was not what attracted him. What attracted him was the little figure painted on it—blonde hair, bun face, and blue and black jersey. This was obviously Raphael ah!

On both sides of the shin guards, two children's hands are painted on the left and right, like angel wings.

Raphael accidentally got the shin guards taken away by the old captain, and immediately dropped the water bottle and reached for it.

Bergomi laughed, raised his head like a "bully" who bullied his classmates in kindergarten, and said to him, "Who drew this? I don't believe it's Luis, he still doesn't know this?"

Although Juan on the sidelines couldn't hear their conversation, seeing the old captain's movements at this moment, he just wanted to help his forehead.

Captain, let it go, let it go!

Rafa will blow his hair!

But it turns out that Raphael is still somewhat tolerant of Bergomi. Of course, it may also be because he is being treated by the team doctor. The team doctor desperately pressed his calf and asked him to continue to receive ice compresses.

After simple treatment, in order not to interfere with the game, the referee asked them to move to the sidelines to continue treatment, while the game continued, Inter Milan had to temporarily accept 10 against 11.

Now that Raphael is receiving treatment, who will take the free kick?

It was Figo who stood out. Although this is not the direction he is good at, he has superb footwork.

Figo chose to cooperate with this free kick, but in the end he failed to use this opportunity to successfully score.

"Is it fast? I want to play quickly." Rafael said.

"Believe me, I'd rather have you play immediately, but not for now. If you insist, I'll tell Bobby to replace you." The team doctor knows how to communicate with these players.

Raphael: "..."

The masseur saw that although he didn't speak, he made a small but obvious gesture of pouting, and immediately comforted him, "I know this game is very important to you, but if you want to play in the best condition Once it’s over, you have to be patient.”

Raphael could only accept this statement.

But at this moment, a whistle sounded, and when Raphael looked up, he found that the referee held up a yellow card, which was aimed at Simeone!

Raphael: "..."

It really works.

He couldn't see it very clearly, but he visually judged that the foul was outside the penalty area, and Mikhailovich walked towards the penalty spot.

Mikhailovich.

Remember this name, one of the greatest free kick masters of this era, the man who staged a free kick hat-trick, his name is worth remembering.

And this defender, who has played for many teams in Serie A in his football career, stands proudly in front of the penalty spot at this moment.

A few seconds later, a whistle sounded, and an arc cut through the sky and shot straight to the goal!

"beep--!"

The referee signaled that the goal is valid!

Following his movements, the team doctor and the masseur cursed at the same time!

"Antonio—" Raphael called.

The team doctor looked at him immediately.

Rafael pulled off the cold pack, "I should go back to the court."

The author has something to say: Miha is now a coach, but unfortunately he has leukemia, and he is still sticking to his post, best wishes.

There are two more, and it's late.
