Chapter 1193 Final opponent - Argentina!
"He Wei, which team do you think will enter the finals?"

At the end of the 120-minute game, his partner Xu Yang immediately asked.

He Wei looked at Messi and Robben on the screen and thought for a while, then based on the history of the two teams' battle records, he said softly: "Since the two teams fought in 1974, the two teams have fought nine times. The Netherlands has an absolute advantage with 5 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss. The only time when Argentina won the World Cup dates back to the 1978 World Cup. Argentina defeated the Netherlands 3:1 in overtime..."

"In the last World Cup, Argentina defeated us to advance to the semi-finals. The opponent was the current opponent, the Netherlands. If you want to ask me who is in the finals, I really can't go back. After all, there are too many factors that affect the penalty shootout."

"Yes, the penalty shootout pays attention to the psychological quality of the penalty shooter, and at the same time, luck also plays a certain role..."

Following He Wei and Xu Yang's talk, Messi and Van Persie, wearing the captain's armband, had already finished guessing coins at the referee.

The Dutch team took the first penalty kick. The central defender Vlaar, who performed very well in this World Cup, erected a solid wall in front of the goalkeeper. In this game, he completed the important task of defending Messi and Higuain assigned by the head coach Van Gaal. He tried to keep the goal and dragged the game into a penalty shootout.

Van Gaal put the young Vlaar first in penalty kicks, which is enough to see the psychological quality of this young player.

But it was precisely because of his youth and lack of game experience that he panicked when facing the experienced goalkeeper Romero...the penalty kick was saved.

The first player sent by Argentina is relatively more rigorous, and can even be said to be the highest standard, because... the player who played is the captain Messi!
Cillessen, who represented the national team for the first time in a World Cup competition, is obviously not as experienced as Romero. In addition, he was under a lot of pressure, and faced Messi's fake move in the run-up, he took the lead in making a save.

The next thing to do is undoubtedly simple for a star of Messi's level. He kicked the penalty kick in the opposite direction of Cillessen's save.

The skies above the Arena Corinthians were boiling with Lionel Messi scoring a penalty as if the team had reached the final.

"...It seems that the Dutch team is going to be in danger."

There are already commentators in the live commentary who are not very optimistic about the Dutch team.

In the next second round, Arjen Robben and Garay scored penalty kicks on behalf of the team respectively. The score was 2:1, and Argentina took the lead.

After two rounds, the third round of penalty kicks undoubtedly became extremely important, and veteran Sneijder played on behalf of the Netherlands.

However, Sneijder, who has disappeared from the mainstream European leagues to the Turkish league, is no longer the Sneijder four years ago. He kicked a half-high ball against Romero. The latter did not miss this opportunity and threw the ball with one palm.

It was Aguero who represented Argentina in the third round, and he easily pushed into the net.

3:1
In other words, in the next fourth round, the penalty kicker of the Dutch team failed to score the ball, and Argentina would enter the final.

Taking a step back, even if the next Dutch player scores, as long as the Argentine player who kicks the penalty kick in the fourth round scores the ball, then Argentina will also enter the final.

In other words...Argentina's entry into the final is a foregone conclusion.

Seeing that Aguero scored a penalty kick, Aiello got up and said: "The end is set, the Dutch team risked failure, and our opponent in the final is...Argentina!"

The next result was indeed what Aiello said, although the veteran Dirk Dirk, who played in the fourth round, scored the ball, but the veteran Maxi Rodriguez, who played penalty kicks on behalf of Argentina, also scored the ball.

So... the final opponent of the Chinese team is-Argentina!

※※※

The Corinthians Arena was completely reduced to a sea of ​​joy for Argentine fans, and inside the stadium, Argentine players gathered together to celebrate the victory of the game.

It is worth mentioning that after celebrating with his teammates, the Argentine captain Messi took the initiative to walk towards the master who carried the camera into the stadium, pointed at the camera with his right index finger, and said with a serious face: "Final, here I come... Are you ready?"

As long as the fans are still watching the live broadcast, who doesn't know who the "you" Messi refers to?
That's right, he is the captain of the Chinese team, Ai Luo!
The on-site directors who were still talking about Argentina's promotion to the World Cup final had to temporarily change the topic.

Among them, BBC commentator Andy Gray gave a classic comment: "There is no dispute that Ai and Messi are the best players on the planet. Whether you admit it or not, it is all here. Yesterday, Ai led the Chinese team to a 7-1 victory over the host Brazil, showing his terrifying fangs. Although Messi is also leading Argentina to the final now, I have to say that there is still a certain gap between the two."

"That's right! Although Ai didn't score many goals in yesterday's game, he assisted very well. It can be said that he was the 'culprit' who created the 'Mineiro Arena tragedy'! Looking at Messi's game today, the reason why Argentina can advance to the final is because goalkeeper Romero performed amazingly in the penalty shootout..."

Immediately afterwards, Martin Taylor took up the topic.

"So... Leo's challenge to Ai can be said to be self-defeating!!"

Andy Gray's words are very sharp, without considering the feelings of the Argentine star Messi, full of personality, and at the same time express his position!

In addition, CCTV commentator He Wei said: "If I am not mistaken, what Messi said was aimed at Aiello. Watching Argentina enter the final, I can't help but remind people of the final of the 2005 World Youth Championship in the Netherlands... Messi's remarks are the summit declaration of the night of the Maracana four days later, or... Are you shooting yourself in the foot? Let us wait and see!"

At the same time, the Internet in China exploded.

In the minds of domestic fans, Ai Luo can be said to be a god-like existence, but in this case, Ai Luo's defeated Messi dared to provoke him on live TV. Isn't this a joke?
So... Chinese fans started Mei Hei.

Of course, Ai Luo didn't know all this.

Because after seeing Aguero score the penalty, he got up and went back to his room to sleep. The team will take a flight to Rio de Janeiro tomorrow morning, so they must recharge their batteries.

The Argentine fans are very supportive of Messi's approach. Countless fans began to fantasize that in the Maracana Stadium four days later, the Argentine team led by Messi defeated the Chinese team led by Aiello and won the third World Cup championship in team history!

When the team advanced to the final, Messi challenged Aiello through the live camera, which naturally became the focus of media attention. In the regular press conference after the game, Messi became the subject of interviews, which directly led to the snubbing of Argentine coach Savilla...
