Argentine beast waist: Messi’s bodyguard

On March 29, 2015 at 20:00 p.m., the men’s national team friendly match between El Salvador and Argentina officially began.

In this training camp and friendly matches, the main purpose of the Argentine team is indeed to select substitutes when the main roster for the Copa America has been basically determined.

Therefore, Messi (Barcelona), Sergio Aguero (Manchester City), Mascherano (Barcelona), Otamendi (Valencia), Sergio Romero (Sampdoria) and other core main players are not on board, on a group of rotating main players plus substitutes, as well as a small number of main players such as Di Maria (Manchester United) and Higuain (Napoli).

For this reason, Argentina was booed by Salvador’s home fans at the start of the match.

In terms of strength, everyone knows that El Salvador, ranked 89th in the FIFA world, will definitely not be able to beat Argentina, ranked No. 2 in the world, even if it is at home. Therefore, fans come to watch the game live to see stars such as Messi and Aguero.

El Salvador invited Argentina to play this friendly match, but also paid the appearance fee, naturally relying on the fans to buy tickets to return the cost and make money.

As a result, the fans bought tickets, came to the scene, but saw that Argentina was on a group of substitutes, not only Messi did not play, but even Aguero, Mascherano and other main players did not play, which naturally made the fans feel dissatisfied.

But how can coach Martino care so much, the Football Association sells the national team appearance fee in the name of Messi and others, his current task is to train and select people for the Copa America, but he will not disrupt his plans in order to please the opponent’s fans.

In the starting 4231 formation, Argentina’s double backline configuration is Evo Banega from Sevilla and Roberto Pereira from Juventus, both of whom are attacking and defensive central midfielders.

Now Willard, whose technique, header, speed, etc. have all increased to more than 80, is actually this type, and is no longer a purely defensive back.

With Mascherano sure to occupy a major place at the back, Villade is actually competing with Banega, Roberto Pereira, and the likes of Lucas Biglia (Lazio) and Faquindo Longcaria (Genoa) on the bench.

If Martino decides to play the 4231 formation in the Copa America, it is generally two main backs, plus 1-2 substitutes to enter the squad.

With the exception of Mascherano, everyone else will have to compete for the remaining 2-3 places.

In the first two days of training, Villad has shown a serious and hard training attitude, and strong physique, speed, heading ability, but I don’t know if I can get a chance to play today.

In the stands, there was Daisia, who followed Verard on an expedition to El Salvador with bodyguards, and agent Douglas Johnson.

Christina, Alisa, Bertha and others also watched the live broadcast in front of the TV, hoping to see Verard appear, and then cheer for her boyfriend.

Despite the rotation, Argentina’s technical prowess was too strong, and after the start of the game, it attacked aggressively and pressed El Salvador to play.

In the third minute, a powerful volley from outside the box from outside the penalty area by attacking beast Tévez forced Salvadoran goalkeeper Carrillo to save the ball off the line and secure a corner kick for Argentina.

In the corner kick, Argentina center Gonzalo Higuain snatched the drop point at the back post and headed the goal. Unfortunately, the angle was too small, and his header was slightly deflected off the post and hit the side net under the interference of the opposing defender.

Four minutes later, Argentina made a comeback, with Di Maria crossing from the left and Barnega plugged in from the back and volleyed across the penalty area, but unfortunately missed the range of the goal frame and went slightly above the crossbar.

Argentina’s attack was thunderous and rainy, and it was not until the 15th minute that Di Maria switched to the right side of the edge of the penalty area and hit the goal frame with a left-footed arc. Unfortunately, the ball was not fast and the angle was not sharp enough, and it was saved by goalkeeper Carrillo.

In the 19th minute, Argentina won a free kick from the right side of the pitch, and Di Maria scored from a direct free kick, which was slightly deflected off the post.

In the 23rd minute, Argentina won a corner kick and Tevez snatched the drop point in front of the penalty area, flicked his head and went slightly above the crossbar.

Under the strong offensive of the Argentine team, El Salvador can only put on a bus iron barrel formation to defend to the death. But it was El Salvador’s bus iron barrel formation that left the Argentine superstars helpless, plus a little bit of scoring dribbling, until the end of the first half, Argentina failed to score a single goal.

This made the home Salvadoran fans boo Argentina even louder.

You don’t have Messi, the overall attack is so collapsed, and you haven’t seen a goal in the first half for 45 minutes, and you don’t deserve to be a Pampas eagle.

In the end, everyone even wished that El Salvador would upset Argentina, and if that happened, it would not be in vain for them to buy tickets to watch a national team match.

At half-time, Gerardo Martino also criticized the Argentine players, saying that the team as a whole was careless and had little fighting spirit, which led to 45 minutes of playing and even the goal of a fish-belly team like El Salvador could not be broken.

In addition, in the case of the team occupying a clear advantage in possession and attack, the backs, full-backs, etc. in the central midfield should also participate in the attack with a large forward pressure to put more pressure on the opponent, rather than standing behind and watching the play in order not to lose the ball.

This is obviously a manifestation of not contributing to the work.

Martino said: “I know that a lot of the players have flown back from Europe, which is in the tense phase of multi-line fighting in the second half of the season. But that’s not a reason for you to slack, because we’re only left with this one training camp. The next time to concentrate is to play the Copa America in Chile in June. Therefore, this training camp must be taken seriously by everyone. If there is anyone who does not want to play in the Copa America and does not want to play for the national team, it is better to bring it up now, I will let him leave in advance, and don’t enter the national team in the future. ”

When such words came out, naturally no one dared to say that he did not want to serve the country. No matter what you think in your heart, you definitely can’t say that on the surface. Otherwise, the saliva of the media and fans can spray him to death.

After the manager’s critical reprimand, the Argentine players had a stronger overall desire to attack in the second half, and the attack was a little stronger than in the first half, and the back and full-backs began to take turns inserting and participating in the attack.

In the 52nd minute, it was right-back Zabaleta who suddenly inserted an assist, played two consecutive wall collisions with full-back Ravic and striker Higuain, then cut inside and inverted triangle passes, sending the ball to the top of the arc of the big penalty area.

Roberto Pereira, a backer inserted in the back row, blasted a powerful and angular world wave.

Unfortunately, this time, the Salvadoran goalkeeper made a world-class save, saved it at the first time, and saved Roberto Perez’s threatening shot from the bottom line.

Argentina failed to steal the first point with a subsequent corner kick and was cleared by the Salvadoran defender out of the box.

After more than ten minutes, Argentina were still invincible, always missing a little kick in goal, and coach Gerardo Martino finally couldn’t bear it, replacing Messi in the 68th minute and removing Tevez.

At the same time, Martino also replaced No. 19 Evo Banega and replaced No. 8 Allen Villade.

“It’s now the 68th minute of the second half and Argentina are ready to make two changes in a row, No. 23 Tevez and No. 10 Messi. No. 19 Barnega down, No. 8 Allen Villade on. ”

“When the attack is inseparable and the situation cannot be opened, it is natural to replace Messi to strengthen the attack.”

‘But Alan Villard got his international debut in the first friendly match, which was also quite unexpected.

“After all, Argentina has several back-of-the-box players such as Mascherano, Biglia and Longcaria on the bench.”

“Perhaps, Martino wants to test Villade’s ability with actual combat.”

“Let’s see what Villade, who made his national team debut, can make a good difference for the Argentine team.”

Seeing Willard and Messi being called to the sidelines together, waiting to appear, the fourth official had already raised the sign of substitution, Daisia, Johnson in the stands, and Christina, Alisa, Bersa, Henderson, Conrad Bazel and others in front of the TV, they were also in good spirits, applauding while looking forward to Willard’s debut performance.

Tevez himself has a bad relationship with Messi, the media and fans are already known, at this time was replaced by Messi, and it is strange that the beast has a good face on his face.

At the end of the field, Tevez ignored Messi’s outstretched hand, did not give Messi a high-five, and went straight out of the touchline, and even attempts to reach out to encourage his head coach Gerardo Martino were ignored by the beast.

Tevez’s temper is so straight and so explosive.

Messi was not surprised and immediately ran into the field to prepare for the game.

Eivo Banega, who was two steps slower than Tevez, was also unhappy, feeling that he had performed well in this game and did not allow Salvador to succeed in any of his counter-attacks. In addition, he also inserted many times in the attack, providing a receiving assist for the front, what does it matter to him that the team did not score? Why did you replace him?

Therefore, when he left the field, Barnega also ignored Villade’s palm that tried to high-five to complete the handover, and went straight off the field, also ignoring coach Gerardo Martino, and directly returned to the bench and sat down.

It can be seen how bad Argentina’s team atmosphere is, no wonder there has been no championship for many years. It is not only the management of the Football Association, but also the relationship and unity between the players.

Villard shook his head, complaining in his heart as he trotted into the field, stood at the back of the field, and prepared for the game.

Regardless of the harmony between everyone and discord, Villard himself needs to gain a foothold in the national team. Becoming an international can not only improve what to do, endorsement fees, but also gain more game experience and upgrade as soon as possible.

After the game resumed, Argentina continued to attack wildly, and two full-backs and two backs of Villade and Pereira also took turns to participate in the attack.

Anyway, El Salvador’s counterattack could not test Villade’s defensive ability. After all, after Messi came on the field, his dribbling breakthrough and organizational offensive ability were more than one level higher than Tevez’s, and the ability to organize attacks outside the box brought by Argentina was improved by more than one realm. Under the attack and defense, El Salvador basically has no ability to fight back.

In the 73rd minute, Messi suddenly made a breakthrough through Salvador’s full-back José Alvarez, defender Lendros, and central defender Alexander Mendoza all the way into the big penalty area, attracting the blocking interception of the last two defenders, and then crossed the ball into the gap in the left rib of the big penalty area.

Messi’s breakthroughs and Higuain’s movement in the box have caused El Salvador’s defense to be lost and confused, leaving the left rib area empty.

Angel Di Maria cut inside on the left flank, just received a pass from Messi, and directly volleyed the ball directly and successfully into the bottom left corner.

Just minutes into the game, Messi even had several brilliant assists for Di Maria to help the Angels open the scoring and give Argentina a 1-0 lead.

At this time, not only a small number of Argentine fans in the stands, but also some of Salvador’s home fans, applauded Messi’s breakthrough, assist, and Di Maria’s goal.

The attack was indeed so beautiful that even if it was them who conceded the goal, Salvadoran fans could not help but applaud Messi and Di Maria.
