Football should be played like me

Chapter 387 The limit of Italy is in the sky

"Zizo's sad curtain call for the World Cup, Marinho was sent off with a red card on the head! "

"He is the devil among angels!"Leading the French team to the World Cup five years ago!Five years later, a red card fixed the French team in the semi-finals of the World Cup! "

"The Life of the Midfield Master!Qi Zuo has [-] red cards in his career, the first in active service! "

"The UEFA Champions League final has been foreshadowed!"If there is one player, the French team may overturn Brazil... Lu! "

"Facing the pressure of the major media, Qi Zuo is determined not to apologize! "

"Shocking decision!Superstar ends!Zizo announced his withdrawal from the French national team! "

One semi-final is over, people should start looking forward to the second semi-final.

But this time is different.

This time everyone is talking about Zizo!

It is hard for anyone to believe that Zizo would make such an unforgivable mistake in such a major game.

You know, according to the trend of this semi-final, the French team's winning percentage is greater than that of the Brazilian team.

Even if it enters a penalty shootout, it's [-]-[-].

It's better than knocking the winning rate to zero like this!

As long as you beat Brazil, you have won the Hercules Cup.

Because both Italy and Argentina are much weaker than France and Brazil.

This is the consensus of everyone.

But what made people even more unacceptable was that Zizo called the media early in the morning on the second day after the game and unilaterally announced that he would withdraw from the French national team!

"I regret that it caused such consequences."

"I will regret this red card for the rest of my life. This is the biggest punishment I have received."

"As for the apology...sorry, I will not say sorry for what I did because Marinho's behavior was inexcusable."

"My World Cup is over, but the World Cup is not over."

"Follow the people you really should be following."

"Lu, if you can beat Argentina, then please take my will and beat this Brazilian team!"

"that's it!"

Qi Zuo turned around gracefully, boarded the plane leaving Brazil, and never looked back.

An era is over.

But another era is coming.

Influenced by Zizo's last words, people flocked to Belo Horizonte, the fourth largest city in Brazil.

Here is the second largest stadium in Brazil, the Mineiro Stadium.

The Mineirão Stadium is the home stadium of Cruzeiro Football Club in the Brazilian League, but more importantly, it is the venue for the second semi-final of this World Cup.

The Argentine and Italian teams have already settled in Belo Horizonte, and they are about to have a life-and-death duel in this stadium.

It is impossible for foreign teams to completely eliminate "invaders" in such a place.

After spending a huge amount of money, many media entered the hotel in Italy and successfully interviewed Lu Yang.

Any team would be very repulsed to be interviewed at this stage.

But when the interview actually appeared, they could only accept it, otherwise it would affect their mood and cause fluctuations in their competitive state.

Flatness is something that all players need to maintain until the game actually comes.

Reporter: "Lu Yang, what do you think of Qi Zuo's retirement from the national team?"

Lu Yang: "This is his decision, and I respect his decision."

Reporter: "Will it affect his status at the club? I mean, will he retire from the club later?"

Lu Yang: "In my eyes, he should be the strongest player in world football so far. He also knows this, so he will not retire, and I will not allow him to retire."

Reporter: "Are you sure? What about Lima? What about Moreira? The French team has just been eliminated by the Brazilian team!"

Lu Yang: "They are all very strong. Of course, Qi Zuo is stronger, even stronger than me. But a football game is never a game where the lineup on paper can determine the outcome. There are many factors that affect the game, and the outcome has a great chance .”

Reporter: "So, are most of your victories along the way accidental? You admit that you have won many trophies by chance?"

This reporter was targeting Lu Yang a little bit.

The reporters who can take advantage of the security loopholes in Brazil should not be European media.

Mostly local media or... Argentinian media.

Lu Yang didn't mean to be irritated at all, he nodded solemnly and said: "So, this is the difference between the champions I won and other champions."

"We are full of legends!"

"This is a color that cannot be poured out by ordinary trophies! This color is called a miracle! Those who don't understand it will never understand it!"

Lu Yang turned around and refused the subsequent interview.

Seeing that the goal was not achieved, the reporter chased after Lu Yang and asked, "So, in tomorrow's game, are you planning to rely on a miracle to defeat Argentina? You can only rely on a miracle, right?"

Lu Yang paused, turned his head and grinned: "I hope so! I really want to respond to Qi Zuo with a miracle, and tell him that I will accept his request!"

An hour later, the interview was broadcast around the world.

A certain media in Argentina became famous because they released the news.

The Argentines were very dissatisfied with Lu Yang's arrogance.

"Facing our mighty Argentina, all Italy can do is pray for a miracle!"

"Zizo left in despair, and the other European team will leave. This World Cup will become a South American civil war!"

"This guy liked to steal Mateo's limelight when he was at Barcelona, ​​now it's time to let him know how good Mateo is!"

"Carlisle must teach this junior a lesson for us! When he debuted, he was called Carlisle's successor. In other words, in front of Carlisle, he is just a son!"

"Bragging how legendary your own experience is, such behavior is too much of a favor. Isn't the experience of other people legendary?"

In this context of public opinion, there is a person who has received strong support from Argentine fans.

That is Heraine.

Former Real Madrid player, Herain!

After Lima left, he played very well, thinking that he was about to usher in spring, but was sold by Lu Yang, and then introduced the Herain who replaced him by Alpha!
Herain was sold by Real Madrid to the Championship team Newcastle United.

That's the British crown!

Secondary league!
This is simply the greatest humiliation to Herain.

Fortunately, Newcastle was a bit of a loser, and they loaned Herain to Juventus under Herain's strong opposition.

And reached an agreement, if Newcastle succeeds in the Super League, Herain will come back and lead Newcastle to the Premier League with peace of mind!

After one season, Newcastle really succeeded.

They were directly promoted to the Premier League with No.2 results in the English Championship.

So next season, Herain will return to Newcastle.

The same black and white jersey, if you don't make it clear, the fans don't know that Herain went to Juventus for a while.

After all, Herain didn't perform well at Juventus, and he didn't get along well with Kerber and Ancarelli.

So this time against Italy, for Herain, it was a god-sent opportunity for revenge.

Lu Yang, Ancarelli, Kerber, Audi, Bernoulini, and those old monsters in Serie A, his disgusting people are all here.

Fuck Italy!
Let Real Madrid and Juventus know what a powerful player they have snubbed!

"Italy's strength is far inferior to that of Argentina! Even Serie A is far inferior to La Liga and the Premier League." Herain said it as if he had played in the Premier League, boasting.

Ancarelli and others took into account the friendship of their teammates and did not say much.

Shengyi striker Najib took the initiative to stand up and choked back on the social platform: "So how many goals have you scored in Serie A? Let me help you recall..."

10 minute later.

"Sorry, your ranking is too low. I dragged the screen for a long time and waited for a long time." Najib has always been able to do his job, "Oh! He played 32 times this season and scored six goals!"

"What kind of fairy efficiency is this?"

"Look at me, it's also six!"

"Unexpectedly, you are a central defender as strong as me!"

The Italian fans burst out laughing.

This is Nima's.

Forwards score the same goals as defenders, just ask if you are embarrassed.

But don't tell me, Najib can indeed score goals, otherwise Herain will not be able to hold back this time.

After sending the message, Najib turned to look at Lu Yang: "Brother Lu, is this okay?"

Lu Yang took Najib's mobile phone while nodding, and continued to edit the information: "How many goals have you scored in this World Cup, let me see...wow...you didn't have any?"

"What's the matter? Why are you not as good as me this time? I have a goal anyway!"

"We are all soldiers in Italy, Lu Yang has six goals, Chiesa has three goals, Perotta has two goals, Sogel has two goals, Kerber has two goals, Ancarelli has two goals..."

"I thought you were Carlisle from your tone of voice! You always point out Jiangshan..."

After Lu Yang stopped outputting, Najib's face turned purple.

The one who cannot travel to Argentina after co-authoring is me, Najib, right?

It has nothing to do with you, Lu Yang, right?
"Okay, let's announce our core tactical thinking this time." Manello spoke at this time.

In the room, all the Italian players are there.

"Argentina's main players are all very strong, but relatively speaking, the front line is a little crowded." Manello said, "This squeezes their chances of playing pure midfielders."

"Herain, Carlisle, Mateo, no accident, this is their forward."

"Paris' Miguel is capable of playing midfield and is very creative. Although West Ham United's Alejandro Maslano is not tall, he has a solid defense and is known as Little Joseph."

"The other midfielder may be Chelsea's midfielder Ferreira or someone else, but it doesn't matter. The former is not suitable for the midfield position, and the latter are not strong."

"In general, such a midfield is luxurious!"

"But Argentina's defense is a bit behind compared to the midfield lineup. The core of the defense is Valencia's central defender Nicola Otamendi, but his height is only 1.8 meters three!"

"And... the entire defense line of Argentina is not tall!"

"The tallest players in their team are center Carlisle and goalkeeper Willy Carrero, about 1.8 meters six!"

"This is our greatest opportunity!"

The players of the Italian team understood.

For other teams, Argentina is as difficult to deal with as Brazil and France.

But for Italy...Argentina is not very difficult to deal with.

Because almost all the best big centers and high school guards in the world are in Italy!

In the next game, they will turn the sky of Argentina blue!
Deep blue blue!

……

July [-], the second semi-final match day of the World Cup.

Argentina VS Italy.

Argentina's starting lineup was almost completely guessed by Italy.

The last place in the Argentine midfield was given to the young and powerful player Ferreira.

This is the most optimized arrangement of the lineup on paper.

But it may not be the best arrangement for actual combat.

Because although Ferreira played as an attacking midfielder at Chelsea, some attacking midfielders are midfielders, and some attacking midfielders... are strikers.

It makes sense that a midfielder like Lu Yang can even be used as a central defender.

On the Italian side, the original starters were sent.

Ancarelli, Perrotta, Kerber
Lu Yang
Ram, Morici
Prashedes, Bernoullini, Najib, Kanyes.

Areola.

The only variable is that Lahm replaced Pellegrini.

If Pellegrini is not injured, then going to Ram means that the Italian team's defense has been strengthened.

This is understandable.

After all, in the previous games, Argentina scored a lot of goals.

Carlisle's shot was very sharp.

And Mateo's extraordinary is unstoppable.

The Italian team played Lahm, mostly to limit Mateo.

But the specific effect is hard to say.

Because Mateo is now more and more invincible in dribbling.

Anyway, he is also a superstar player who started the road to legend!
Thinking of this, Lu Yang looked at Morici with disgust.

It is also a super giant of 96, which also opened the road of legend.

Why are you not as sharp as Mateo?

"Hi everyone, what you are watching is... I am your good friend Luo Cheng. We are now bringing you this commentary at the World Cup site. We also invite another special guest commentator for this session. Let us Applause welcome... Suotu!"

There are no sets in the middle view, uh...five sets.

Suo Tu appeared on the screen to greet everyone, and even spoke fluently in Chinese: "It's a good holiday, let's talk shit..."

Although the accent is a bit tasteful, the content is still very standard.

Luo Cheng smiled and said, "Because the competition has not yet started, I think many people have the same question as me, that is, Mr. Suotu, why is your Chinese so good?"

Suotu smiled: "Isn't it just for bad money?"

Luo Cheng coughed quickly.

Before the last episode, the two agreed that coughing meant that Suo Tu had said something wrong.

"No, no." Suotu explained, "The main reason is that when I was in San Remo, Lu and I had a good relationship. We often discussed tactics. In order to better understand his arrangements, oh no, what he meant, I taught myself at the time. Chinese."

"In that San Remo team, there are many players who can speak Chinese, and Morici speaks Chinese better than me. Najib, Kanyes and others can also complete 80.00% of the communication in Chinese."

Only then did the fans understand.

It's not enough to award Brother Lu a Chinese Communication Ambassador medal.

"Mr. Suotu, what do you think about this game?" Luo Cheng asked.

Suotu nodded and said affirmatively: "This game is actually very simple, and the victory will belong to Italy."

Luo Cheng: "How do you say that?"

Sotu: "The ground belongs to the Argentines. Mateo is almost impossible to be frozen. Even if he gets on Ram, he can only limit Mateo as much as possible."

"The first task of the Italian team is to cut off the passing line between Matteo and Carlisle. Nagy is responsible for eating Carlisle with his body, and Bernoullini, who is more experienced and better in anticipation, is responsible for cutting off various through routes. .”

"If this problem is solved, half of Argentina will be abolished."

Luo Cheng was taken aback, as expected, there are no worthless people under the fame, Suo Tu is awesome!

This guy knows the ball!
"What about the remaining half?" Luo Cheng asked.

Suo Tu smiled and pointed to the sky.

"Leave it to God?" Luo Cheng wondered.

Sotu smiled inscrutablely: "It's not God, it's the sky! The sky is the limit of Italy! Argentina has no air defense! After this game, the sky in Argentina will turn blue, deep blue!"

At this moment, both Luo Cheng and the Chinese fans in front of the TV were overwhelmed by Suotu.

That's it!

Not only the tactics are simple and easy to understand, but also precise!
These words sound like the words of a master tactician!
Suo Tu was complacent.

you do not say!

Manero said it himself last night.

I heard it clearly at the scene.

After the simple ceremony, a whistle sounded.

The game officially begins.

Italy kicks off.

As soon as the ball kicked off, Lu Yang, Kerber, Kanyes, Perotta, Ancarelli and others all rushed towards the Argentine half.

Kick off!

Shameless!

It's reckless!
Just do it!
The key is that aging big centers like Perotta and old zebras like Ancarelli are running desperately.

It's really a bit unprepared.

Carlisle, Mateo and others immediately began to press.

But the Italian side had been prepared for a long time. Moric retreated after the ball was out, and then his teammates passed the football back, leaving enough buffer space.

boom!
Morici fired with precision!
He feels in great shape!

If you can't receive this pass, you can only say that the striker is too bad!
In the frontcourt, Lu Yang adjusted his route, and Morici was looking for him with the ball.

But at the same time, Maslano leaned over.

He and Lu Yang got into a tug, and the two made hand gestures with each other.

This is the first time that Lu Yang has played against the West Ham defensive champion.

As soon as he saw this player, he thought of Moric.

Because they are only 1.7 meters four.

Lu Yang turned to face the football with his back to the goal, and stepped back with Maslano on his shoulders.

Maslano had plowed two rows of drainage ditches on the lawn under his feet, but he still couldn't stop Lu Yang's impact.

too strong!
Niu Gaomada was talking about people like Lu Yang.

But from another perspective, being able to slowly block the rushing Lu Yang also shows that this player has a lot of energy in his small body... Although Lu Yang is mainly for catching the ball.

boom!
The football hits.

Maslano was blocked by Lu Yang's body and lost his vision of the football.

This is very dangerous for defensive players.

Sure enough, in the next second, the football flew directly over the heads of Lu Yang and Maslano.

Don't stop the ball and pick the ball directly over the top!
It's important to score the ball!
Maslano reacted immediately and grabbed Lu Yang's clothes.

He felt Lu Yang's body leaning to the left.

This is to pass from your left!

Maslano steps to the left, moving laterally.

However, at the next moment, Lu Yang made a fake move to the left and immediately turned right.

Get away from Maslano with a gorgeous basketball turnaround.

right!

Maslano's back is facing the goal. From the offensive map, his right side is the left side of Italy, and the position on the left side of the center of the Argentine penalty area.

This location is intentional.

Because Argentina's strongest central defender Otamendi is a left central defender.

Lu Yang's pick ball went away from him.

But Otamendi deserves to be the first brother of Argentina's defense.

It is the same as Maslano's 1.7 meters four but can achieve the same results in the Premier League.

Otamendi's 1.8-meter-three can become the core of the defense, which must be expected.

His prediction allowed him to step forward immediately and have a chance to steal Lu Yang.

As long as Lu Yang slows down a little or takes a little step.

boom!
Otamendi's rushing steps stopped abruptly.

His body is still moving towards the football.

But the football had once again taken to the skies, over Otamendi's head and into the penalty area.

The next moment, Lu Yang passed by Otamendi.

Consecutive picking balls!

boom!
Before the football landed, the confident Lu Yang swung his legs like a whip.

Volley shot!

Fly within days!

In the penalty area, the Argentine goalkeeper Carrero's prayer save has not fully unfolded, and the football fell into the Argentine net.

It reminded Calero of being shot by Carlisle in the training match.

How to defend against this shit?
Can you keep him from kicking?

Otherwise we will die!
will die!

Carrero was about to cry.

At the scene, there was a warm celebration immediately.

Italians sang and danced.

"Lightning goal! 42 seconds!"

"The Italian team's kick-off was too sharp, and the goal was scored directly!"

"Of course, 90.00% of the credit for this goal should be placed on Lu Yang. He single-handedly singled out the two Argentine defenders. It is simply a work of art!"

"Is this football that Italian players can play? Are you sure Lu Yang is a Chinese player, not a Brazilian player?"

"Not even Mateo has such gorgeous footsteps."

"In this year's World Cup, only Brazilian football wizard Moreira can compete with Lu Yang's ghostly pace!"

"One to zero! Half of Italy has stepped into the final stage!"

After the commentator finished speaking, many people were taken aback.

Because this sentence is a bit familiar.

When Qi Zuo scored and led the French team ahead of Brazil, did the commentator also say so?

What the hell!

This is so unlucky!
Argentina fell behind at the start, with a goal of [-]-[-], and all the players looked a little dignified.

After the re-kick-off, Matteo dribbled the ball and tried to pass the Italian player on the left.

But soon he realized something was wrong.

Praxedes + Ram!

The former is the meritorious captain of AC Milan, a great left-back who has inherited the glorious tradition of Italy!
The latter was Juventus' starting midfielder last season. During the transfer period, he was brought to the Blue Bridge by Chelsea for 200 million. He has excellent defensive ability at the level of a central defender.

And both sides are much faster than traditional central defenders.

Under the siege of the two, Mateo couldn't open the situation for a while.
