Chapter 422 The boy praised by the whole world
At the end of the game, the Argentine players, who lost 1:5, stayed at the Spartak Arena without covering their faces. Almost all of them swarmed towards the tunnel, allowing the Argentine fans to curse.
Messi reached out and grabbed his friend Aguero, who also wanted to escape reality. Aguero turned his head and looked over curiously, only to hear Messi say: "Akun, we lost so miserably, we should be scolded, come with me to represent the whole team." Go apologize to them, okay?"
Aguero originally wanted to refuse, but then he thought about it, sighed in his heart, and nodded lightly: "Okay."
"England defeated their qualifying rival Argentina in the first round, and the Chinese player Li Qing took the greatest credit..."
The broadcast screen was originally showing the winning England players, but the screen suddenly cut to Messi and Aguero. He Wei, the commentator of China Channel 5, was very professional. He changed the topic: "Oh? Messi and Aguero." Luo walked to the area where Argentine fans gathered. They seemed to apologize to the fans on behalf of the entire team. They should indeed apologize for losing. 1:5, creating the largest score difference between the two teams. "
Guest commentator Xu Yang said solemnly: "Messi and Aguero are indeed world-class players and responsible. Unlike our national players, who train to deal with it and then leave after losing, without caring about the mood of the fans. , Do you see the international players sitting in front of the TV? With an annual salary that most people can’t spend in a lifetime, they should learn to be human first.”
The Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV couldn't help but think of the 1:9 loss at the Workers' Stadium. They were furious and began to besiege the poor performance of the national football players and Football Association executives on the Internet.
Li Qing originally wanted to change jerseys with Messi, but after thinking about it, he finally gave up the idea and thought about it differently. If he suffered a 1:5 defeat, he would definitely not want to face the winner.
It is the captain's responsibility and obligation to endure the abuse from fans and thank the fans for their attendance and support, but he has no such obligation towards his opponents.
"What a good captain!"
Messi is not good at words, he prefers to use actions. Li Qing gave Messi a thumbs up in his heart.
Today's Argentina is no longer the feared Argentina of the past. Perhaps the offensive configuration is still as sharp as ever, but the ability of the defensive players is really terrible, and the players' attitudes are very problematic. If Messi hadn't turned the tide in many games, Argentina would have They couldn't even qualify for the World Cup in Russia.
To be proud, he scored four goals without even exerting any effort. What if... he used all his strength?
As Messi and Aguero entered the tunnel, Li Qing turned and followed captain Harry Kane to thank the fans in attendance for their support.
At the regular press conference after the game, Sampaoli, who led the team to a huge defeat, took the initiative to take responsibility for the defeat. Faced with soul torture from Argentine media and reporters from other media, he said that there were still two final rounds in the group stage and he still had a good chance of winning. The team qualified and then left the press conference hall early.
Southgate was in a high mood after winning the game. He tried his best to cooperate with reporters' questions as long as they did not involve the team's tactical secrets.
Southgate, who has a very successful career, did not get carried away. He said that the team's big score victory in the first round was due to Argentina's overall state not adjusting well, not how good England's performance was. He also used the media to spur the players and hoped that the players could stay focused on the game. degree, won the next two group matches, and advanced to the top 16 of the World Cup as the first place in the group.
Not surprisingly, France is ranked first in Group C. Topping the group means that they can avoid France in the 1/8 finals. It’s not that Southgate is afraid of France, but France’s overall strength is too strong. Even if they win, It will also consume too much energy, which is not conducive to preparations for the quarter-finals.
The regular post-match press conferences of the two teams ended, but the sports media and fans around the world still focused on the ending of the Anglo-Arab war, because the series of World Cup records created by Li Qing are worthy of fans to take a closer look at. Every goal scored by Li Qing is very exciting, and you will feel happy after watching it several times. As a result, the ratings of another game between Peru and Denmark in the first round of Group C dropped significantly.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with the weak overall strength of the two teams.
England players returning to their hotel from Spartak Arena are also paying attention to the group stage match between Peru and Denmark. According to the odds predictions given by the three major European bookmakers, both Peru and Denmark have the possibility of qualifying, which means that once England starts from After qualifying from Group D, the opponent in the 1/8 finals will be Peru or Denmark.
There is also a chance of meeting France in the 1/8 finals, but this possibility is very small. Neither Southgate nor Deschamps want the two teams to meet before three games are left in the final.
England defeated Argentina with a score of 5:1 in the first round, which gave a lot of confidence to those fans/fake fans who bought England to win the World Cup, so a large number of them followed suit. However, with the big score, England's odds of winning the World Cup dropped significantly. , has surpassed Brazil to become the biggest favorite after France.
Two hours later, the match between Peru and Denmark ended. With Poulsen's goal in the 59th minute, Denmark won the game 1:0.
The final match of the third match day of the World Cup in Russia is Iceland VS Nigeria. This Iceland team is somewhat different from the one that advanced to the quarterfinals of the European Cup two years ago. Therefore, it is reasonable to lose to the African Eagle Nigeria 0:2. among.
