As for the Copa America final that Guti remembered long ago, he couldn’t remember whether the other team that entered the final was Argentina, but he remembered that the host Uruguay entered the final and finally won, mainly for Uruguayan Prince Enzo Francisco Leigh was really impressed. At the same time, he remembered that Zidane said publicly later, 'My idol is Enzo Franciscoli. In memory of him, I named my eldest son Enzo...'.

At the beginning of the game, just after the first half, Uruguay's Francisco Li made a long-range shot from midfield and almost succeeded in a surprise attack.

Argentine goalkeeper Christian lost his position. If Zanetti hadn't grabbed a header to clear the siege, Argentina would have conceded the goal at the beginning.

This long-range shot woke up the Argentine players, and the atmosphere on the field suddenly became tense.

In the 9th minute of the first half, Franciscoli made a lob pass from the midfielder. Fonseca caught the ball and passed it straight. Otero turned and hit, but was intercepted by Redondo in the middle. A long pass directly sent the ball to the The ball was handed over to the frontcourt player, Ortega received the ball and rushed quickly, but the opponent's defense fell to the ground.

After seeing the situation, the referee gave Argentina a free kick without playing a card.

Batistuta stood behind the ball. He watched the opponent's position in the wall. When the whistle sounded, he immediately volleyed vigorously. The football hit the wall and jumped out of the sideline.

Throw-in for Uruguay.

The football was flying back and forth under the feet of both sides, and from time to time the personnel of both sides would bump into each other, and the referee's whistle never stopped.

The fierce fighting also caused crazy cheers from the audience. After all, this is Uruguay's home stadium. Seeing the performance of their own players, the local fans are very excited.

While sitting in the neutral auditorium - in fact, most of them are also local fans - the Madrid trio enjoyed a rare fan's madness.

"Hey, that player from Uruguay is also called Gutierrez!"

Raul pointed at the players on the field with a look of surprise.

Guti gave him an angry look, "I also saw the one named Raul."

"Actually, there are more people called Fernando."

Morientes, who sat obediently by the side, was a perfect example of being shot while lying down.

"Okay, okay, you two, watch the game."

Moran was too lazy to be angry with these two boyish guys.

In the 17th minute of the first half, Argentina counterattacked with a long pass. Simeone broke through the defense after taking the ball from the midfielder. The last goal was handed over to Caniggia.His long hair was fluttering because of his speed, and his expression was more stern than the previous handsome face with more scars. In the wind, he saw his phantom.

In just a few seconds, or in an instant, he had already reached the penalty area in the wind, and the Uruguayan players had no time to stop his flying.

Zero to one, Argentina leads.

The applause at this moment, the applause of the audience is all dedicated to this man.

He stretched his arms and turned his face upwards, while his slightly tearful eyes were still captured on the big screen.

Batistuta ran over and put his arms around him tightly.

Redondo also ran over, stretched out his arms to hug the two of them at the same time, then turned his head and kissed Carney's cheek lightly.

"Oh shit……"

Guti was a little jealous and couldn't help but glanced at Raul.

Raul, who was inexplicably looked at by him, stared back at him.

Guti withdrew his gaze. In his memory, Redondo was sometimes a very excitable guy. He even kissed Raul on the field...

Although the goal was scored, the Uruguayan was annoyed by Carney's goal, but he was not angry at the Argentine's celebration, because everyone knew what kind of pain Carney had suffered this year. Carney ran and celebrated on the field, and everyone was still happy for him.

However, after being warned by the referee that the celebration time was too long, the Argentine quickly separated and continued to participate in the game.

In the 29th minute, this time it was Uruguay's turn to celebrate.

Due to Simeone's foul, he not only got a yellow card, but also gave the opponent a direct free kick.

Standing behind the ball is Bengochea.

I saw him take a few steps back, put his hands on his waist, and looked at the goal of Argentina through the space with deep eyes.

After the whistle sounded, he took two quick steps, swung his thigh, and a ball with a strange arc flew through the air, and the net was hit by the football and flew up.

The ball was so fast that the goalkeeper didn't even have a chance to react.

One to one, flat.

There were deafening cheers from the sidelines.

The commentators roared loudly for this rare curveball.

"Nice shot."

Guti nodded.

It is an arc beyond human ability to fight against. This is a free kick that can be compared with the weird S arc in memory in the future.

"Even Saucier couldn't have saved it."

Raul nodded.

Mo Lun tilted his head, "Everton's goalkeeper?"

"Yes, we played against them in the UEFA Cup last year, very good goalkeeper."

While the three were chatting, the game was still going on.

In the 41st minute, Argentina counterattacked again, this time from the teenager Zanetti.He dribbled the ball into the opposing half after stealing the ball from the backcourt.Continuously out of the way of the opponent's interception, he passed the ball to teammate Ortega with a clever pass.

The young Ortega is not tall, but his speed is quite amazing, but he is a bit lonely when dribbling the ball, and finally he was shoveled by the opponent and fell to the ground.

So Argentina got another free kick.

Still Batty stood behind the ball.

But the ball flew over the crossbar.

In the next few minutes, the two sides fought fiercely but failed to score.

In the second half, at the very beginning, the Uruguayan won the ball, and Ferranciscoli slowly moved forward with the ball.

The handsome and serious prince moved forward steadily with the ball. When Zamora stepped forward to block the ball, the prince poked the ball with his feet and passed the ball in a perfect arc, bypassing the Argentine and flying to the other side. , and Fonseca, who received the ball, made an action beyond human imagination, and it can even be said to be a completely unconventional action. He turned around to catch the ball and volleyed the goal (*).

Until Fonseca fell to the ground and the ball flew into the net, the audience fell into a strange silence.

This action of his, and that action, which completely violated common sense and unscientific, were played repeatedly on the big screen.

Afterwards, screams and applause erupted from the audience.

Then, such an action also came at a price, and then Fonseca was confirmed injured and could no longer continue the game, and Uruguay was forced to make a substitution.

Although Uruguay temporarily leads by [-] to [-], but Fonseca's injury ends, the troika loses one player, and Uruguay's situation does not look good.

"It's definitely the best goal in football this year."

Raul, who was silent for a while, spoke slowly.

"Who said no!"

Guti lowered his eyes-after this game, the Uruguayan troika gradually faded out of people's sight. Fonseca's goal was really expensive.

In the 52nd minute of the second half, Ayala tackled Poyet and received a yellow card.

In the 55th minute, the Uruguayan backhanded Batty in retaliation. Batty fell to the ground and was fortunately not injured after inspection. Uruguay also received a yellow card.

In the 58th minute, with an indirect free kick, Argentina's Simeone stepped forward to take the penalty, but unfortunately the ball flew out of the baseline against the side net.

In the 61st minute, the Uruguayan prince made a breakthrough with the ball. The Argentine prince stepped forward and knocked the opponent back a few steps. This aroused the dissatisfaction of the Uruguayans. With a calm face, the referee ran over to separate the two sides, and the ball was given to Uruguay.

Guti, who was watching the game, burst out laughing.

Raul nudged him. "Fernando is really interesting."

Afterwards, the Argentine got another chance for an indirect free kick. Balbo and Carney cooperated, but unfortunately the angle was still wide.

In the 70th minute, Balbo clashed with Martinez in the opponent's penalty area. Simeone pushed Martinez away, but because the referee didn't see it, Simeone escaped the penalty, but the Uruguayan was very dissatisfied and complained to the referee After repeated gestures, Gutierrez got a yellow card instead.

In the 77th minute, Martinez dribbled the ball and cooperated with the Uruguayan prince into the Argentine half. Redondo appeared in front of them and made a sudden steal. He dribbled forward and the Argentine counterattacked aggressively.

He reached Uruguay's half in one breath. Redondo was surrounded by three people, but he staggered his feet briskly. He touched the ball with the instep of a flower arrangement and passed the ball from the space under the opponent's legs. Kaji shot out from the side , a left-footed curve ball hit the post and bounced into the goal.

Two to two, even again.

Redondo ran over and put his arms around Kaji, and smiled at each other with their foreheads pressed against each other.

So Guti muttered in a low voice again on the sidelines, this time Raul didn't pay attention to him, because he was standing up and shouting loudly.

In the 81st minute, Zanetti forced Martinez, and a diagonal shot from the right side of the penalty area was confiscated by the goalkeeper.

Two minutes later, Prince Uruguay's zero-angle shot from the left was directly blocked by Redondo from the bottom line.

In the 87th minute, Batty's long shot from the left was missed again.

In the 91st minute, Prince, who received a pass from his teammate, lobbed a shot in front of the goal. Unfortunately, this time the Argentine goalkeeper took the ball off with great bravery.

At the end of the game, the two sides drew 10-[-] and will enter [-]-minute overtime.

However, after 90 minutes of extra time in the main game, the players of both sides consumed too much. In the extra time, neither side made any achievements, and will eventually enter a penalty shootout.

This is about fighting for the character of both goalkeepers and kickers.

Raul clasped his hands together, looking nervous.

Guti rested his chin and tried hard to remember, but unfortunately he only remembered Uruguay winning the championship, and he really didn't have much impression of the others.

On the field, the list of players who are ready to make free throws has begun to be released:

Uruguay's five players who took penalty kicks: Franciscoli, Bengochea, Gutierrez, Poyet, Martinez.

The five players who took the penalty kick in Argentina: Ayala, Simeone, Chamott, Sanesa, Redondo.

"Argentina played almost exclusively at the back."

"No way, Argentina's penalty kick win rate, haha~~"

"Penalty kicks are about the psychological quality of the players, do they still have physical strength?"

There was a lot of discussion in the stands, and Guti and the three of them also whispered to each other until the penalty shootout began.

The result of guessing the coin was that Uruguay made the first penalty. Their first one was Prince Franciscoli.

The first player in Argentina was Ayala. Although he didn't perform much on the court, he was a player with a very tough mentality. Similarly, if he didn't run or jump, he just shot directly and also hit the net.

Next, Bengochea also shot into the net.

Simeone also entered.

Gutierrez scored.

Chamot missed.

The Argentine fans on the sidelines all fell silent.

Chamot, who missed the penalty kick, walked off the field with a dejected look on his face. His teammates hugged him and comforted him in a low voice.

It was Uruguay's Poyet's turn.

Many Argentine fans clasped their hands and chanted 'No Go No Go No Go'. Guti found that Raul was saying the same thing, and he rolled his eyes angrily.

But Poyet made the free throw in steadily.

The Ulafen fans covered their mouths nervously, and at this time all the pressure was on Sanesa, who was about to play in Argentina.

Although the young Sanesa is a very steady person, at this time he is still sweating with nervous hands.

Sanesa then fell to her knees on the grass with tears in her eyes.

The last person in Uruguay is Martinez. As long as he makes a free throw, there is no need to compare.

So, penalty kick 5:3, Uruguay won.

As the last man in Argentina, Redondo didn't even have a chance to play, so the game ended like this.

There were cheers and singing in the audience, and countless people shouted Franciscoli's name.

From this moment on, no matter what the future holds, he is king of the Uruguayans.

The author has something to say: (*) In fact, this goal was scored against Bolivia in Uruguay. Fonseca was injured and missed the semi-finals and finals.
