Chapter 332 World Youth Championship finals, here I come! [Second update, please subscribe to monthly pass]

"What does he look like?" asked Marcelo Raffi.

In fact, he also saw it at the coach's bench, but he asked this question on purpose.

"He's taller than me, and he should be stronger than me. He looks like a kind person, and he smiles at me." Messi smiled wryly.

He once imagined that when he met Yang Yang for the first time, the other party might be a very proud and unsmiling person, but he didn't expect Yang Yang to smile at him, which made him a little at a loss, out of politeness, he waved quickly.

"How did you feel?" Marcelo Raffi asked again.

Messi shook his head, "I don't know."

After a pause, Messi confided slowly: "In the past few months, I have been training hard. I want to compare with him and surpass him. I no longer resist the gym. With a height of 1.6 meters, I have increased my weight to 64 kilograms, which is in line with the standard of a player."

"Yes, that's right." Marcelo Raffi said affirmatively, "I remember, when I saw you again during the national youth team training camp, everyone felt that you were a different person, completely different, not only in better shape, but also more resilient. Physical fitness, tactics and skills have also made great progress."

"Everyone thinks it's because you're in the Barcelona first team."

After hearing this, Messi smiled wryly, "Being in the first team is only part of the reason. What really made me work hard was because I felt the threat from Yang Yang. He was like a sword, always hanging above my head, as if it might be cut off at any time. I was very afraid."

"Because I was afraid, I could only make myself stronger, so I practiced desperately, because I knew that he had been training desperately. If I want to be stronger than him, I have to work harder than him."

Marcelo Raffi can understand Messi's mood.

Young people, they all compare each other, and no one agrees with the other.

Messi has always been very shy, but it does not mean that he is a fool, he has his own ideas, even many times he thinks more than anyone else, he is more sensitive than anyone else.

In a previous private conversation, Messi revealed that he was worried that Barcelona would introduce Yang Yang, which would cause him to have no place in Barcelona, ​​and even be forced to leave like teammates such as Fabregas and Pique.

He was afraid, very terrified.

"I think you are strong enough now." Marcelo Raffi said softly but with certainty.

After hearing this, Messi narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded, and did not speak.

"Since you are afraid of him, then kill him in today's game. As long as you kill him, you don't need to be afraid of him from now on. You will completely wash away this psychological shadow."

Messi took a deep breath and nodded heavily.

"Leo, I believe you can do it. You are the strongest player in this World Youth Championship. You are omnipotent and no one can stop you!" Marcelo Raffi encouraged.

Messi exhaled heavily, as if the whole person was relaxed.

The referee of the World Youth Championship final is Terje Heuger from Norway. He is 40 years old and is an experienced international referee. He has previously enforced the World Cup in Korea and Japan.

In this World Youth Championship, he has officiated the Argentina group match against the United States. In that game, he gave three yellow cards, one for the United States and two for Argentina. This is obviously an advantage for Argentina.

Sometimes, being more familiar with referees is also an advantage.

But Terje Heuger was obviously more impressed with Yang Yang. When he saw the Chinese team and the Argentine team coming out at the same time, he took the lead to greet Yang Yang, because he was the one who enforced the UEFA Super Cup a year ago.

In that game, Ajax lost to Valencia, but Yang Yang's tenacity left a deep impression on everyone.

He was given six yellow cards at the time, three each for Ajax and Valencia.

According to the information given by Ajax before the game, this Terje Heuger is a maniac who draws cards. He is relentless towards fouls and enforces the law very strictly. Yang Yang has already informed the coach and teammates of this before the game.

But the specifics still depend on the grasp of the game.

"This year we played the European Super Cup again, and the opponents are very similar to last year. I really hope that you will be the one to enforce the law. Then go back to last year, and then I can avenge my revenge." Yang Yang said jokingly.

Ajax won the UEFA Cup, but Liverpool won the Champions League.

This Premier League Red Army created one of the greatest games in the history of the Champions League in last season's Champions League final, the Miracle of Istanbul, tied AC Milan with three goals behind, and finally defeated the opponent in a penalty shootout.

Yang Yang didn't watch the match live, but he did watch the live broadcast, which really made people excited.

Before Benitez coached Liverpool in [-], he was the head coach of UEFA Cup champion Valencia. The styles of the two teams are very similar, so Yang Yang said that.

Terje Haug smiled and shook his head and said: "Probably not. After I referee the World Youth Championship, I may take a break for a while, and the new season is estimated to be dominated by the Champions League, and I will also coach Denmark's own league."

"Oh, that's such a pity." Yang Yang looked disappointed.

Although he knew Yang Yang was being polite, Terje Haug was still very happy.

"Anyway, come on!" The Norwegian held out his hand.

"Thank you!" Yang Yang shook hands with him.

Terje Haug turned around and chatted with the Argentine players, especially Messi, who also encouraged them.

Seeing the referee walking back to the front of the team, Yang Yang stood near Messi, took the initiative to walk over, and stretched out his hand, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Leo. I hope today will be a wonderful game."

Messi was stunned for a moment, but quickly reached out his hand, "Me too, I hope we will work hard."

"Okay." Yang Yang sensed the opponent's fighting spirit.

After returning to his own queue, he took a deep look at Messi again, and his fighting spirit was also ignited in his chest.

World Youth Championship finals, here I come!

"Viewers, this is the National TV Sports Channel."

"We are now broadcasting live for you at the Gaugenwald Stadium in Utrecht, the Netherlands."

"Now should be the prime time at night in China. I believe that at this moment, hundreds of millions of domestic fans will sit in front of the TV and watch this world-renowned focus game, the final of the World Youth Championship."

"The Chinese team played against Argentina!"

"This is the first time in the history of the Chinese football team to reach the final of the World Youth Championship, and the second time in the history of Asian football. In the past history of the World Youth Championship, this event has always been banned by South American teams. Among them, Brazil and Argentina have won four times, which is currently the team that has won the most championships in the World Youth Championship."

"And it is worth mentioning that after Brazil won the World Youth Championship in Australia in [-], Argentina won three World Youth Championships in [-], [-] and [-]. Only in the World Youth Championship in Nigeria in [-], Japan and Spain from Asia met in the final. In the end, Spain defeated Japan [-]-[-] to win the championship."

"Many people also think that the Chinese team in this year's World Youth Championship is a bit like Japan back then. Many people are even worried whether the Chinese team will repeat the mistakes of the Japanese team and lose in the final."

"But I personally think that such worries are unnecessary, because being able to reach the final is already a recognition of our team's strength. In this case, regardless of the final outcome and score, it is worthy of recognition."

"Of course, we also sincerely hope that these young players of the national youth team can continue their excellent performances before, and strive to be the biggest black horse in the history of the World Youth Championship."

The live TV footage was given to the scene.

Under the leadership of the referee, the players of the two teams entered the court one after another.

After queuing up at the player tunnel entrance, the first to sing was China's national anthem, March of the Volunteers.

Then came the national anthem of Argentina.

"We can see the formation of the Chinese team in this game, and Krautchen still has a four-three-three formation."

"The trident in the frontcourt is Yang Yang on the left, Gao Lin on the center and Chen Tao on the right. This is also the main configuration of the Chinese team in this World Youth Championship. Hao Junmin is the starting midfielder. Zhou Haibin, who was suspended in the semi-finals, also returned to the starting lineup for this game. Cui Peng is the late midfielder."

"And our defense is still led by captain Feng Xiaoting."

"The Chinese team is well-organized, and the Argentine team is also very neat. They still play a three-five-two formation. Their main goalkeeper Ustari, defenders Paletta, Garay and Barroso, midfielders Sabaletta and Gago and other players also all started. The core player Messi on the front line partnered with Gustavo Overman."

"In addition, there are Argentine talent rookie Aguero, midfielder Biglia and other players on the bench. Obviously, the strength of this Argentine team is even better."

"Tonight, for the young players of the China Youth Team, it will be a tough game."

"This is our number one star Yang Yang. He just led the Chinese national team to qualify for the World Cup in the World Cup. He is also the top scorer and one of the best players in this World Youth Championship so far."

"It should be said that this game will be a duel between the top players of the two teams, Yang Yang and Messi."

"The captains of the two teams, Feng Xiaoting and Zabaleta, were guessing, but it seemed that Feng Xiaoting was unlucky and failed to grab the side that was more powerful at the beginning, which belonged to the backlight side, while Argentina grabbed the smooth side."

"This is indeed somewhat unfavorable to the Chinese team, but we believe that this is only temporary, and the young players of the National Youth Team will definitely be able to overcome various difficulties."

"The game is about to start."

"We can see that Yang Yang and Gao Lin are standing in the middle circle, ready to serve."

With the referee Terje Heuger's whistle, this World Youth Championship final that attracted worldwide attention finally kicked off.
