Football: start copying peak Messi attributes

Chapter 84 Puyol's Voice
Seeing Fabregas standing at the penalty spot, Del Bosque and the assistant coaches were on their feet, ready to celebrate.

I thought it was a goal to seal the victory, but I didn't expect it to be kicked away by Fabregas.

This made the two people who raised their arms halfway a little embarrassed. Bosque and Tony's assistant looked at each other, and there was a wry smile on their faces.

These guys, why is it so difficult to take a penalty kick?
"Who will take the next penalty kick?"

Tony thought for a moment and replied:
"Harvey, he is more stable in penalty kicks, so he shouldn't miss them, right?"

Bosque agreed on the surface, but he was beating a drum in his heart:

Is Harvey really that stable?

Spain's penalty kick seems to be a glorious tradition, and the Bosque era was not bad.

Spain in the Enrique era even practiced 1000 penalty kicks before the game, but was still eliminated in the penalty shootout, and the two consecutive World Cups were eliminated in the penalty shootout...

Cesc Fabregas' missed penalty had little effect on Spain's morale, but it had a great impact on the morale of the French team.

After the re-kick-off, the French team pressed across the board and launched a fierce attack on Spain one after another.

Since the referee's previous penalty was controversial, after the re-kick-off, the referee seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally making up for the French team.

In the 41st minute, Ramos and Ribery kicked each other down in the fight and were given a yellow card by the referee.

Two minutes later, when Lin Quan broke through with the ball, he was tripped by the defender almost in the same way. The referee was close at hand but did not make any indication.

This naturally angered the Spanish players. Busquets, Harvey and others also ran up to surround the referee, thinking that his penalty was unfair.

Even if you don't draw your cards, you should at least give a free kick.

The referee didn't even give a verbal warning, and directly took out the yellow card, but it was not given to the defensive players of the French team, but to the Spanish midfielders Xavi and Butzquez.

This penalty was booed by more than 5 fans at the scene, and the fans were very dissatisfied with the referee's penalty.

If you count the two yellow cards he showed to the French team before, he showed four yellow cards at half-time for players from both teams protesting his enforcement standards.

The existence of these four yellow cards is itself evidence of problems with his law enforcement ability.

Bosque couldn't stand watching on the sidelines anymore, and rushed out to protest to the fourth official:

"Hey, look what you guys have done. It was a yellow card. Instead of punishing the offending player, you showed my player a yellow card. Do you enforce the law like this?"

The fourth official signaled Bosque to calm down and complain to FIFA if he had any problems. He was only the fourth official and could not change the referee's decision.

Bosque actually knew that it was useless to protest against the fourth official, but if he didn't protest, he would feel very upset.

"I will complain to FIFA!"

After leaving a word, the handsome old man returned to the coach's bench.

Maybe it was because of the boos from the fans, or maybe it was because the referee finally calmed down after he made up for it.

After showing the two yellow cards to the Spanish team, the referee's enforcement returned to normal standards.

In the 44th minute of the first half, the Spanish team made a defensive foul in their own half and gave the opponent a free kick in a position that was not very good.

There is no problem with the penalty of this ball, but the fans at the scene will boo him as long as they see the referee make a penalty that is not good for the team.

The French team was not affected by the boos on the spot, anyway, they were not booed.

Cabaye took a free kick. Because there was not much time left in the first half, they did not choose to cooperate tactically. Instead, they directly hoisted into the penalty area and let their teammates grab the goal.

Benzema, who is of similar height, overwhelmed his club teammate Ramos in the penalty area and grabbed the first spot.

Instead of attacking the goal directly, he ferried the ball to his teammate. Mene jumped high from the other side and completed a header relay in the air to break the Spanish goal.

This was a wonderful cooperation. In the last minute of the first half, the French team relied on a header to tie the score tenaciously.

However, the big-screen playback at the scene showed that the ball was suspected of being offside.

At the moment when Benzema's header was ferried, Mene was suspected of appearing on the offside line.

Now, the Spanish fans are even more unhappy.

The protests of the black whistle came one after another, and some conspiracy theorists even believed that the referee of this game came with a mission from FIFA.

FIFA doesn't want to see Spain defending the World Cup, so it wants to find a chance to get rid of them.

Although this speculation lacks actual evidence, once the conspiracy theory spreads, more and more people believe it.

Even if FIFA immediately stood up and clarified the matter, it may be difficult to completely eliminate the influence of conspiracy theories.

After the goal, the French team was extremely excited and celebrated wildly at the Calderon Stadium under the boos of more than 5 fans.

Being able to tenaciously equalize the score when the score is behind, the situation is not good for one's own side, and the referee seems to be treating them unfairly, this is nothing more than a shot in the arm for the French team, which makes their blood boil with excitement.

The Spaniard felt that he had been whistled by the referee, and so did the French team.

If this game is lost, the French team will definitely protest to FIFA.

Of course, if you win, that's another matter.

After the French team finished celebrating, the first half time was over.

After the re-kick-off, the referee directly blew the whistle for the end of the first half.

The players of the two teams left the field one after another and returned to their locker rooms.

On the home team's side, the Spanish players were disturbed by the referee in the last few minutes of the first half. The faces of all the players were not very good-looking, and the atmosphere in the team was gloomy and terrifying.

"Forget about the first half of the game and the referee's unfair penalty. What you have to do is to play the game well and not be affected by these factors."

Bosque is not a coach who is good at pumping chicken blood, boosting morale and making them full of fighting spirit in the locker room.

He is more like the Huang-Lao school of doing nothing, explaining the tactical play step by step, and reminding the players to change the way they play on the court, and it will be gone.

It's a bit out of his style to have him blow dryers on players like Ferguson did.

The mobilizers of the Spanish locker room are several veteran captains of the national team, such as Puyol and Iker Casillas.

Seeing that his teammates were more depressed, Puyol stood up:

"Hey guys, we're not behind, it's not the end of the world, no need to be so depressed!"

"Even if the game is tied, with our previous goal difference advantage, we can still qualify first in the group and directly get tickets to the World Cup!"

The players raised their heads and looked at the old captain who did not play because of his age and declining state.

This summer Puyol underwent knee surgery, but the postoperative recovery is not optimistic.

This trip to the World Cup is likely to be the last time the old captain will fight side by side with them.

For them, if they miss this World Cup, there may be another chance.

But for Puyol, who is 34 years old, there is no next time.

"With our strength, coupled with the cheers and cheers of more than 5 fans at home, isn't 45 minutes in the second half not enough for you to rewrite the score?"

"Do you really think so?"

"Guys, you are world champions, you are European champions, you are the best players in the world, no one can beat you!"

Puyol recalled the years of fighting with these teammates of the national team, the scene of holding the cup together and the honors they won after hard work, and said very emotionally:

"As many of you may know, I had a serious knee injury and I was going to announce my retirement next year.

But Harvey persuaded me, hoping that I can accompany everyone to play another World Cup.

I accepted Harvey's persuasion, not to say that I think the national team is indispensable, but that I want to witness with everyone that we are once again on top of the world and create an immortal dynasty belonging to the Spanish national team!

I hope that after playing the World Cup and winning the Hercules Cup, I can calmly announce my retirement under the spotlight of all eyes.

Rather than like a frustrated person who was tortured by injuries and left the court sadly after being defeated by the disease. "

"I can't play this game, so I can only pin my hopes on you, please!"

Puyol's affectionate speech moved his teammates very much.

Old teammates from several clubs and national teams stepped forward to give him a warm hug.

The gloomy atmosphere pervading the team has disappeared at this time.

Even after Puyol publicly proposed to defend the World Cup champion, a goal that everyone only dared to hold back in their hearts and dare not speak out publicly, the fighting spirit of the players was rekindled.

The road to defending the title will definitely be very bumpy, and it cannot be smooth sailing.

The French team is just a stumbling block on the way forward, and there will be many such stumbling blocks in the future.

If they can't even pass the hurdle of the French team, what are they talking about defending?
Seeing the fighting spirit of his teammates restored, Puyol joked:
"Besides, there are players like Lin in our team. As long as you pass the ball to his feet, he can perform miracles!"
