The top prediction at the start, I am the third ball king

Chapter 581 Messi's sense of urgency
FIFA published an article on its official website, praising Spain, calling Spain's victory a "legendary and epic victory!" and believing it to be the most exciting semi-final in World Cup history.

The FIFA official website also praised Li Chuanqi: "In times of desperation, some people choose to cry and lament, some choose to commit suicide, some choose to save themselves, and some choose to resist. Li and his partners chose the most staunch resistance, and finally he won succeeded.

Since his debut, Li has had a magical halo on his body. In the World Cup, he is catching up with the best seniors in history!
We look forward to him giving us more exciting games and more exciting goals in the final! "

……

The war between West and Germany ended, and many media and media called this war the "Spanish Miracle", which became a classic example in the history of the World Cup.

Li Chuanqi's super long-range lob and free kick goal became the focus of heated discussions among the media and fans.

Many fans believe that with these two goals, Li Chuanqi has left his name and legend in the history of the World Cup.

Messi fans shouted to Messi: "Messi, Li has left his own legend in the World Cup, now it's up to you!"

"Eliminate the Netherlands and defeat Spain in the final. Messi, you are the new generation king!"

"Messi, come on, Li has already risen, if you don't work hard, you will be surpassed by him..."

"We don't need you to score classic goals, we just need you to lead Argentina to victory, meet Spain in the final, and fight Li Banban in the final!"

The media and fans turned their attention to the game between Argentina and the Netherlands.

This is also a duel between two giants.

Argentina has won two World Cups in history, and the Netherlands has entered the finals three times and lost three times. It is known as the "uncrowned king".

News about the two teams keeps appearing in the media.

The German newspaper Bild revealed the news about Van Persie: The semi-final between the Netherlands and Argentina will start in the early hours of tomorrow. Just 24 hours before the game, there is bad news from the Oranje. Captain Van Persie may be absent from this game due to stomach discomfort. semifinals.

Van Persie did not train with the big team, but trained alone.

"Van Persie has some stomach issues and I don't want to take any chances," explained Van Gaal.

When asked if Van Persie would appear in the semi-final between the Netherlands and Argentina, Van Gaal replied: "I don't know."

"Tomorrow we will make the final decision. We can't do it today. We still have 24 hours to decide. Van Persie is very important to the team. In principle, my captain will definitely play, but only if he is 100% healthy .”

Although the captain is unwell, the Dutch team still has good news.

Previously, midfielder "Iron Gate" De Jong, who was considered to bid farewell to the World Cup due to a groin muscle injury, participated in eight days of training.And another defender with a knee injury, Vlaar, also returned to the team for training.

Van Gaal was delighted but said "I don't know" if De Jong will be available.

"De Jong tried to train today and we'll see how his body responds. Let's wait until tomorrow, and Vlaar."

However, many media believe that the so-called stomach discomfort of Van Persie is actually releasing "smoke bombs" before the game. This is Van Gaal confusing the Argentine team.

The Guardian published a pre-match prediction: the second semi-final of the World Cup in Brazil will be played between the "Uncrowned King" Netherlands and the Pampas Eagles Argentina.

Since the two traditional giants met for the first time in 1974, they have played against each other 40 times in 9 years. The Dutch team has a slight advantage with 4 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses.However, the two defeats of the Dutch team, one lost the World Cup, and one missed the Olympic semi-finals, can be described as tears.

Before the start of this World Cup in Brazil, fans were very optimistic about Messi's attack combination with Aguero, Di Maria and Higuain.

But due to injuries, the four-man attacking lineup only played 160 minutes together on the pitch.

During this period, the Argentine team scored three goals, all of which were scored by Messi. Two of the goals came from his personal ability: he shot the goal after dribbling the ball horizontally in front of the goal, one goal was a vigorous volley in the chaos, and three goals came from his personal ability. None of the goals showed the power of the team's offense.

In fact, Argentina is still a team that relies on Messi to sing a one-man show.

In the first five games, Messi contributed not only four goals.

In the first round of the group stage, Messi's corner kick caused his opponent to score an own goal; against Switzerland, Messi made a wonderful assist to Di Maria; even the goal against Belgium was instigated by Messi after breaking through with the ball. Maria, whose pass was scored by Higuain.

The Argentine team has only scored eight goals in total, and Messi has participated in seven.

Hitting a snake hits seven inches, so the Dutch team will definitely find a way to really limit Messi.

Where did Messi's good helper go?

Di Maria, who really helped, was absent due to injury. Although he is both the "king of waves" and his passes are always blocked by opponents, he scored one goal and one assist in the two knockout games, and his contribution was even greater than that of Messi. big.

As for Ravitch, he worked hard to break through the wing, but it was difficult to spark with Messi.Higuain, who scored against the Belgian team, recovered, but unfortunately he could not assist Messi, but needed Messi to pass the ball to him.

Perez, who came off the bench for Di Maria, lacked offensive talent and had no bright spots in the last game.

In order to defeat the Dutch team, which is defending with all its strength in the half-court, the Argentines can only rely on Messi's extremely strong personal ability to "magnify his moves". The superstar should be effective at this time.

Just like Li, Spain also relied on Li's personal performance to have the last laugh in the West-German war!
Marking Messi may be the most important tactic for the Dutch team in this campaign.

De Jong, the defensive midfielder who was injured in the last round of the group stage, has started training with the team. Coach Van Gaal will definitely send him to play. After all, he must be the No. 1 choice to entangle Messi.

The Dutch team uses a five-back defensive counterattack tactic. Many defensive players gather in front of their own goal, and their midfielders stare at the opponent's midfield playmaker.

This tactic has been tried and tested in this World Cup and brought the Oranje to the semi-finals.Only Mexico and Costa Rica, which focus on fast passing and have a tacit understanding, can really threaten the Dutch goal.

This match against Argentina is easily reminiscent of the match between the Netherlands and Spain in the first round of the group stage.

Spain's Barcelona style of play lacks Messi, but there is Li, a striker who is not inferior to Messi. Although the Spanish defense is terrible, Li's attack power is too strong.

If that game hadn't been for Li's extraordinary performance, the Dutch team might have been able to complete the "one-shot" of the last World Cup final.

The Argentine team is another "pseudo-Barcelona". They have Messi, but without Harvey and Iniesta. The midfielder cannot give Messi strong support, and the tacit understanding of passing and receiving is not high.

It can be seen that the defense of the Dutch team is still trustworthy, of course, unless Messi really has amazing masterpieces, unless Messi can be as omnipotent as Lee.

Li's performance in the semi-finals put too much pressure on Messi and made him feel a sense of urgency.

With this sense of urgency, how much energy can Messi exert himself?
We will wait and see!

Besides the offense, the defense of the Argentine team is not strong. Both Switzerland and Belgium have a chance to score. It's just bad luck, otherwise the Argentine team may not be able to make it to the semi-finals.

The attack power of the Dutch team should be improved: Robben's speed is a counterattack weapon, and his breakthrough on the wing is quite sharp. The outbreak was quite terrifying; the young player on the right side Depay is the biggest discovery of the Dutch team in this World Cup. With breakthroughs and shots, he will suppress the right back Zabaleta of the Argentine team who frequently assists.

This newspaper believes that the game between the Netherlands and Argentina should not be able to tell the winner in regular time, and the two teams will decide the outcome by penalty kicks.
