ball magic

The British laughed, the Brazilians and Uruguayans cried.

Because on this national team match day, the Brazilians defeated the plateau, and the Uruguayans did not take advantage of the injuries of many of Ecuador's main players to win the game. Both sides have to decide their fate in the final round.

while the ecuadorians are enjoying their victory

They got the tickets for the World Cup with a score of 30 points one round ahead of schedule, and they can also go to the World Cup!

In this case, the competition has also entered a fierce stage.

With Argentina and Ecuador occupying the two places, there are now many teams that still have the opportunity to compete for the last two places, namely: Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay and Colombia.

Among these four teams, Uruguay is undoubtedly the worst luck, because their opponent is Argentina.

They have to get 3 points and then look at the results of other teams to know whether they will advance directly or play in the play-offs.

This also made the Uruguayan team united before the game, and some players even said that even if they risk their lives, they must win the game.

In such an atmosphere, it is another away game, and the treatment waiting for the Argentine team can be imagined.

The moment their plane landed in Uruguay, they were caught in a sea of ​​Uruguayan fans.

From the airport to the hotel, they were booed all the way.

And this is just the beginning.

Even when the Argentine team arrived at the hotel, they did not give up.

When the night fell, they became even more energetic, and they lit up firecrackers and set off fireworks.

Raphael has played more than 300 games since turning professional.

He also encountered such "enthusiastic" fans when he was away in the Champions League.

But compared with these Uruguayan fans, the fighting power of those European fans is simply vulnerable.

When Aimar came out, what he saw was him standing by the window, watching the fans who were still making noise.

This made him walk over, and after standing for a while, he gave his boyfriend a look of "Are you out of your mind?"

Because those fans who were jumping and dancing and looking so happy that they were almost partying, sang Veronica's song.

The song is still the same song, but the Uruguayans changed the lyrics to mock and insult them.

Aimar felt it was unbearable, and wanted to frown, but this guy is still standing here and listening?

Raphael explained: "I just think that compared to them, the fans of Milan and Juventus have almost no fighting power."

But such an explanation obviously cannot convince Aimar.

Raphael smiled: "Don't you think the harder they scold now, the harder they will cry after losing?"

Aimar had already guessed it!

According to the fans, this guy is a jerk.

Ordinary players avoid this kind of monster away from home, but this guy is already thinking about how to conquer it.

But this is Raphael, and he loves this kind of Raphael.

But it's too late now.

He turned Mr. Shivering around and closed the curtains himself.

It was at this time that Aimar realized why the fans were scolding vigorously

They knew that this was his and Raphael's room, and even recognized his shadow, and they were all scolding him now.

Aimar couldn't help shaking his head. After the curtains were closed, he pushed someone forward, then jumped on his back, and asked, "Did you open the curtains before?"

Raphael hummed, "I just took a look."

No wonder people scold you!

Aimar snorted, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'm sleepy, Mr. Pillow, you should perform your duties well."

Mr. Pillow?

Raphael smiled and sent him to the bedside dutifully.

They should have a good rest, otherwise how will they retaliate against the Uruguayans tomorrow?

On October 2001, 10, Argentina ushered in the last round of South American qualifiers.

There is no need to repeat the importance of this game. The two sides have also played three or four times in the past two years, and they are not unfamiliar, so after the start of the game, the two sides started directly.

As the No. 10 of Argentina, the real core, Rafael enjoyed his exclusive treatment after the opening

In just 5 minutes, he was brought down twice.

The Uruguayan is also very particular about his fouls. When shoveling him, he must stay away from the goal, and then stay away from the goal, lest his set ball pose a threat.

But the Uruguayan has no good fruit to eat. Every time he is brought down, the "Chinese boy" Recoba on the opposite side will also enjoy the same treatment.

It was not only him who was frequently violated, but also Crespo and Aimar who were also unlucky.

This kind of logging battle almost filled the entire first half.

In such a game where fighting was the mainstay and football was the second, Argentina was the first to break the deadlock.

Rafael found Keeley with a long pass, and after Keely's long-range shot was directly thrown, the ball reached Aimar's feet and organized a second attack in the penalty area.

The Uruguayan has been attracted by Crespo in the penalty area, but he did not expect Aimar to feint and pass the ball to the feet of "Bug" Lopez.

It was with the cooperation of the former Valencia Three Musketeers that Claudio easily scored the goal and gave Argentina the lead.

Uruguay's goal came in stoppage time in the first half.

Because of Simeone's foul, the Uruguayan got a free kick in the frontcourt from outside the penalty area.

Recoba himself took the set piece and hit the goal.

The two sides entered the second half with a 1-1 tie. After the start of the second half, Rafael helped the team take the lead again with a long shot.

This conceded goal also allowed Uruguay to launch a fierce counterattack. Crespo's injury also added another injured player to Argentina, which also gave Saviola a chance to play.

In the 62nd minute of the second half, Keeley also had to leave the field for treatment because he was stepped on his foot.

For this Bielsa replaced Veron.

This is obviously a brand new attempt, and Rafael's switch to Kiley's position is obviously also a brand new attempt.

Obviously this also means that Raphael will hand over the No. 10 position.

But Raphael didn't care.

Because he doesn't think Veron can compete with him, and if he is Bielsa's first choice, Veron will not come off the bench.

So after seeing Bielsa's gesture, Rafael quickly ran to Kiley's position.

Facts have proved that Veron is absolutely prepared.

Raphael once suggested that Juan learn from Veron, and after Veron played, he actually imitated Juan.

When a player like Veron concentrates on playing support, what awaits the striker is cool!Very cool!Very cool!

In the 72nd minute, Rafael received a long pass from Veron, and after eating his old opponent Montero raw, he easily lobbed and scored.

The score also became 3 to 1!

Just 2 minutes later, Veron sent another long pass, and Raphael easily unloaded the ball. When he was about to pass the ball to Saviola, who came to meet him, he saw Montero showing his spikes .

At this time, Raphael had no time to dodge, so he could only unload his strength, but Montero's spikes still had a close contact with his ankle.

This made Raphael have to roll on the ground one more time.

At this moment, the whistle also sounded, and Rafael thought that the referee might have to play a card.

Saviola, who was the first to rush to his side, asked anxiously: "How do you feel? I have already called the team doctor."

Raphael stretched out his hand to him, and after sitting up with his strength, Raphael saw that his right ankle was already bright red.

He touched the upper near the ankle and said, "I should thank Umbro."

If it weren't for his preference for models with uppers and the material of kangaroo leather, Montero's kick might have made him miss the World Cup.

Aimar's voice also sounded above his head: "Are you sure there is no problem?"

Raphael heard that his voice was trembling, and when he looked up, he found that his eyes were red.

He could only comfort him: "Sure! Sure! It's not a big problem!"

But his coach didn't think so.

Bielsa didn't wait for the team doctor's judgment at all, and didn't even let him take the penalty kick, so he replaced him.

Raphael is also very straightforward.

They have already won this game, and this is the biggest punishment for Montero. In contrast, he is not persistent about whether he can perform a hat-trick.

But what he didn't expect was that the team doctor who didn't have time to check his injury insisted on helping him to leave the field.

Good reason

Avoid secondary injuries.

Rafael can only leave like this.

As soon as he came to the sidelines, he heard a whistle.

He didn't look back, because just looking at the mournful appearance of the fans in the main stand, he knew that the penalty must have been scored.

But at this moment, he also heard footsteps behind him.

When he turned his head, he saw Saviola running towards him and his teammates chasing after him!

Raphael couldn't help but smiled and hugged them.

After the celebration was over, Rafael returned to the bench to accept the team doctor's examination honestly.

The teammates on the bench also gathered around. After the team doctor confirmed that he only needed to be injured for a week, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and continued to watch the game.

Only Keely jumped over and said to Raphael, "I have some bad news for you."

Raphael raised an eyebrow.

Keeley said depressedly: "Brazil scored a goal."

Rafael smiled instead: "Their opponent is Venezuela after all."

And Brazil, after all, is Brazil.

Of course, there is no need to say this sentence.

Keeley sighed, "There's a worse one."

Raphael guessed: "Colombia is also behind?"

He nodded depressedly, "If this score is maintained until the end, Uruguay will be able to play in the play-offs because they have 1 point more than Colombia."

Even if Uruguay is the fifth place in South America, it can compete with the teams in Oceania for the spot, and it is very sure.

This also means that Uruguay can still get tickets.

The Uruguayan fans in the stands seemed to have received the same news. They, who had been crushed by the score, sang again to cheer for the players.

what does this mean?

The Uruguayan players on the field also understood, which also made them start to fight back.

Has replaced 3 patients in a row, and Bielsa, who has no substitutions at the moment, does not want the players to be injured again, so he is also directing the players to defend.

In the end, the score of 1 to 4 was maintained until the end.

When the whistle sounded, both the Uruguayan fans and the Argentine fans were cheering.

Uruguay cheered because they qualified for the play-offs and they still have a chance!

The Argentine fans are full of pride, because they entered the World Cup with an undefeated record!
