ball magic

Since he could only sit on the bench to watch the game, Raphael sat on the bench and observed the Hertha Berlin fans.

As the capital of Germany, Berlin's teams have always performed poorly in European competitions.

Not only is it not as good as the Munich team in Bavaria, but it is also not as good as the teams in the Ruhr area, but in this game, Hertha Berlin fans still showed great enthusiasm.

In this stadium that can accommodate 76000 fans, but cannot achieve the best viewing experience because of the track and field track, there are no cold fireworks, smoke and tifos that are common in Serie A and the Champions League in this era, but full of drums , Come on cheers.

Human voices and drums intertwine and converge, and the sound is heart-warming. This kind of atmosphere made Raphael admire from the bottom of his heart.

"What are you thinking?" Simeone asked. Raphael was obviously distracted, and he didn't even notice that the camera was shooting at him.

Raphael simply replied: "The fans are watching them."

Simeone looked at the stands, covered his mouth and said, "Bayern's home stadium is much more interesting than here, and so is Dortmund's. After all, it's a professional stadium, so it's different."

Rafael thought deeply: "Last time I watched the video of Bayern and Varen, the atmosphere is really good."

You still have time to watch the video of Valencia?

Even if Simeone thinks with his ass, he knows why he looks at this thing, isn't it just for the curly hair?

He thought about the schedule and asked, "Bayern play Valencia away today?"

Raphael nodded: "That's right, the two teams will play two back-to-back games, and now they both have 5 points, so no one wants to lose this game."

Although Simeone is biased towards his own people and supports Valencia, he still objectively said: "Bayern is not easy to play, but this is Valencia's home court after all. They must fight hard for this game. If they can't qualify first in the group, in There will be a lot of losses in the draw for the second leg of the group stage."

Speaking of this, he covered his mouth and laughed again: "But they are better than Milan. They are about to play in the Europa League, or go home."

He said such a long list, but did not get Raphael's reaction. Just as he was surprised, he found that Raphael had stood up and protested!

Vieri beside him also shouted "Handball! Handball!"

It turned out that Hertha Berlin forward Michael Pretz handballed the ball in the penalty area, but the referee didn't blow it!

Simeone booed immediately, but the referee obviously would not change the penalty. The home team fans were glad they escaped.

With such an accident, they didn't want to talk about off-court affairs, but found that Inter Milan's bad luck had just begun.

A few minutes later, while defending against Michael Pretz, Stam charged with the guy again.

With Stam's physique, the opponent usually suffers.

This time was no exception, but the problem was that he had strained his muscles before competing for the top due to his rushing too hard.

Michael Pretz was crushed under Stam, the giant Dutch tower, and his expression was quite painful.

Seeing that Stam fell to the ground on Michael Pretz, the referee suspended the game, and Inter Milan's team doctor swished onto the pitch.

Raphael looked at the old Robson almost immediately, he wanted to know how the old man planned to deal with it.

It turned out that the old gentleman's face was quite ugly, but his reason was still there. After he turned around, he pointed to Samuel on the bench without hesitation, asking him to warm up.

This is the first appearance of the 20-year-old Samuel in the Champions League.

Raphael looked at him with some anxiety, and found that this guy was so nervous that he couldn't even put his vest on.

He stood up in disbelief, and saw their second door, Fabrizio Ferren, help him pull it off.

"The kid is so nervous," Simeone said.

Although I have played in the America's Cup, but in the America's Cup, Samuel's compatriots are all around me, and I played a little bit from the group stage, which is completely different from the mentality of the temporary play now. of.

Raphael nodded, and saw that the old Robson had returned to the sidelines to command, and after looking at the gestures, he found that the old man was still an old man

Even if it's 10 against 11 now, we must stick to the offense and use offense instead of defense.

He took another look at Jurgen Robert, the coach of Hertha Berlin next door, and saw that he was also dancing and shouting words such as center and attack in German.

The German coach is still very young. When he took over Hertha Berlin in 1996, the team was still sinking in the second division.

Jurgen Robert was luckier than his junior, also named Jurgen, and it took only one year to promote Hertha Berlin from the second division to the Bundesliga.

Two years after being promoted to the Bundesliga, that is, last season, they won the Champions League qualifying place by virtue of their third place in the league.

"We're going to be in a bit of trouble," Raphael told Simeone.

The old Robson adopted a rotation lineup today. The starting double midfielder on the field today is the young Juan and the veteran Winter with Pirlo.

And Hertha Berlin is also a typical German team, with tall legs and long legs, it is definitely Inter Milan who suffers physically from the competition. Now that Stam is injured, their center is seriously lacking in protection.

The old Robson decided to use offense instead of defense, perhaps because he understood that there was no way to make up for this hole for the time being.

And this also means that the old man still lacks enough trust in Samuel.

As soon as Raphael finished speaking, Simeone was about to say something when Bobo cut in.

"Do you think we have a chance?"

Raphael glanced at this guy angrily, who are you talking about so loudly?

But he didn't say anything, because he saw that old Robson had come over aggressively.

As soon as bobo turned around, he was slapped on the head by the old man.

After receiving a slap that was neither light nor heavy, Bobo was not only not angry, but also asked the old man with a smile, did he and Rafa have a chance?

Old Robson said unhappily: "You and Rafa are going to warm up now, of course whether you will play or not is up to my arrangement."

This is what Rafael was waiting for. He quickly took off the scarf, put it in Simeone's hand, and quickly warned: "Don't let those bastards play with it."

Simeone almost laughed.

But Raphael's warning eyes could not be ignored by him, so he could only nod perfunctorily.

Raphael had already taken off his padded jacket at this time, and just as he was looking for a vest, he found the old man holding up the vest to help him put it on.

After putting on the vest, he gave the old man a quick hug, and rushed to the warm-up area to join Samuel.

Bobo doesn't have this kind of treatment, but his speed is not slow.

When he ran over and wanted to complain about the old man's eccentricity with Raphael, he found that Raphael had no time to talk to him at all, and he was teaching his younger brother.

"Don't be nervous after playing, Gianpagliuca will tell you what to do, or let Cannavaro direct you how to do it."

Bobo didn't expect Rafael to have such a high opinion of Cannavaro, and he told the little guy when he decided to play in midfield.

Samuel nodded again and again, and after realizing that Raphael might play, he relaxed a lot.

After 2 minutes, Samuel was replaced on the pitch.

After 4 minutes, Rafael was put on the court, replacing Pirlo.

Because Raphael did not start, he was not booed when he played today, but at this moment, the fans of Hertha Berlin were no longer kind to him, and all the boos flocked to him.

Pirlo, who was off the field, looked a little depressed. Rafael rubbed his head and quickly comforted him: "If we win this game, we will be stable. We will definitely have a chance in the next two games."

Pirlo turned his mind and felt that this was the reason.

Bobo, who obviously warmed up together but didn't get a chance, stared at the back of old Robson's head, thinking that this old man is not cute at all now!

Fabio Caresa said: "It is now 16 minutes in the first half, and the old Robson has used up 2 substitutions. This also demonstrates Robson's determination to win this game."

Old Robson is still standing on the sidelines.

Because of the schedule, he originally wanted to win this away game if he could. If he couldn't win, it would be best to ensure a draw.

But Stam's injury affected his plans.

Stam stands like a wall, and when he moves, he is a moving wall. He is the most solid support in front of Pagliuca and the most solid rock for Inter Milan's defense.

Without Stam like this, Simeone is also on the bench, and Almeida has not even been brought in. The old Robson feels that they must not be able to withstand the impact of the Germans.

Losing is actually nothing. If they lose this game, they will still qualify as No.1.

But Inter Milan only lost one game in the new season, and that was the European Super Cup before the start of the season. A large number of main players did not return to the team and they lost to Lazio.

Since the start of the league, they have not lost a game.

If this ends Inter Milan's winning streak, the old Robson will be a little unwilling.

After Raphael came on the field, he followed the old Robson's instructions and moved closer to the right, cooperating with Figo and Panucci on the right, trying to penetrate Germany's right!

Under such a targeted attack, Hertha Berlin's defense, whose defense was all attracted to the left, was missing!

In the 21st minute of the first half, Figo suddenly made a cross from the right, and Rafael showed off a flower-arranging pass. Jankulovski, who had been completely released, ushered in the first Champions League goal of his career. ball!

Just 2 minutes later, Ronaldo finally scored!

The old Robson finally let go of his heart, and the old man decided to sit on the bench.

But this also made him see Vieri's bitter face, but the old man decided to turn a blind eye.

He can't use up all the substitutions when the game is 10 minutes away.

After losing the ball in a row, Jurgen Robert quickly calmed down. He came to the sidelines and directed the players to speed up the pace and continue to attack the center.

It has to be said that the Germans have an indomitable and unyielding gene in their bones. Even if they are scored twice at home, the Hertha Berlin players on the field can still implement the coach's tactics, which also allows them to receive rewards.

It was 39 minutes into the first half, and Michael Pretz scored the only goal of the first half for Hertha.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Raphael was brought down outside the penalty area not long after the start of the game, which allowed them to get their first free kick in the frontcourt in the second half.

Because it was a free kick from the left, Raphael waved to Jankulovski.

This stunned the Czech guy, does this leave me to deal with it?

Cough, he thinks his free kick is pretty good, although it may not be as good as Rafael.

When he ran over, he heard Raphael say, "Come to cooperate?"

Of course, the Czech boy nodded immediately, and Raphael simply explained a few words, and then moved a few meters away.

Jankulovski took a deep breath after setting up the ball, and he heard the whistle coming from his ear, and he kicked the ball towards Rafael without thinking!

I saw Rafael stop the ball and turn around, draw his bow and nock his arrow, all in one go!

The ball went perfectly around the wall and into the net!

Fabio Caresa couldn't help admiring: "This goal allowed Rafael to tie Rivaldo in the Champions League scorer list, and tied for second place in the scorer list, second only to the striker Mario Jia who played for Porto. Del!"

At 70 minutes, Robson Sr. replaced Ronaldo with Vieri.

This is not only because he wants Ronaldo to preserve his physical strength, but also because he can't stand this sticky guy acting like a baby by his side.

Vieri played so happily.

After the game, the guy said to Raphael with his head downcast: "You said, did I use all my luck in the league?"

Although he only has more than 20 minutes, you know that he is eager to score goals, and almost all his teammates are creating opportunities for him, but he can't grasp it by himself and spits out cakes again and again?

What can Rafael say?

He rubbed bobo's hair, trying to comfort him, and found that Cannavaro was holding a very conspicuous and eye-catching scarf!

This made him leave bobo without hesitation, and went to settle accounts with that little dwarf.

At the same time, I didn't forget to make a note on Simeone's head, even a scarf can't be seen!
