Chapter 152 The Second Scene

"goooooooooooooooooooal!"

"Robbie...hat trick..."

"Perfect personal performance, Robinho used his personal ability in such an important game to keep Brazil's hope of advancement."

"The second hat-trick of this cup, Robinho, the only big-name star of the Brazilian team, told everyone that even without Ronaldinho and Kaka, Brazil is the top team in the world. He used Sitting at the top of the scorer list in one game, tied with Paraguay's Santa Cruz. Robinho is telling Argentina that only he is still here, and this competition is not your one-man show!"

When Gago saw Robinho score the third goal, he frowned, really afraid of something.I thought he was in a sluggish state and didn't bring the hot state in the last half of the league to the America's Cup.But I didn't expect that it was just a silent game. At today's important juncture, a hat-trick broke out directly.

"It seems that he will steal the limelight in the second round."

Tevez said a little unwillingly.

"No matter how strong a person is, it is impossible to defeat a team. The current Brazil team, if only it is like this every time. No matter how Robbie is, he is only one person. He cannot win every game. The outbreak saved Brazil. In Argentina, our cooperation in the frontcourt has reached a high level of tacit understanding, and the superimposed strength definitely surpasses today's Robbie."

Messi said it from a different angle, but what he said made sense. Brazil still failed to solve the problem of its own weak attack.Although Dunga's Scouts were better defensively than any previous class, their offense was weak.The absence of Ronaldinho and Kaka has had an impact beyond Dunga's estimation. If Robinho can replace the two in this game, it may not be certain in the next game.

"No matter what, it is always necessary to suppress the limelight of the Brazilian team. You know, in terms of the scene, our Pampas is more than one step ahead of the Brazilian team."

Gago was the last to speak, but what he said set the tone for tomorrow's game, that is, to continue the carnage and let all fans know that Robinho is completely incomparable to the luxurious midfield combination of the Blue and White.

"How many goals will Colombia score tomorrow?"

Messi rubbed his smooth chin with his fingers and began to think about this question.

"Four?"

Tevez said a conservative figure.

"Four is the bottom line. It seems that we can't keep our hands tomorrow."

After Gago said this, he stood up and called the two to leave the court.

"Aren't you going to watch the next game?"

"Although Ecuador is good, it's still a bad match against Mexico, so don't watch it."

Gago's words made Messi nodded, obviously he also had this view.

When the three of them left the field, they wrapped themselves tightly, obviously not wanting to be exposed by everyone, especially when the Brazilian team is now in full swing.Journalists don't think about people and ask questions that are easy to answer.

"Oh, did you leave so soon, the next game should be good."

Luz, who was in the aisle, saw Gago leave, thought about it and decided to watch the next game, and didn't follow after him, after all, the opportunity is rare.

"Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock..."

Just as Gago walked out of the stadium, the cell phone he just bought rang, with a very characteristic sound of water droplets.Gago took it out of his trouser pocket, and when he saw the name of the call reminder, he frowned and closed it immediately.

"who is it?"

Messi, who stopped a taxi, asked.

"Who else, that bastard Robinho came to me to show off, so I'm too lazy to pick it up."

After getting in the car, the three of them went back to the hotel directly. After all, tomorrow is their match. It is better to go back early to rest, and to recharge your batteries to fight a good battle.

Originally, he wanted to greet his family members, but thinking of Kou Kou, that dangerous guy, Gago decided to go back to sleep with Messi early.

Since he had slept all day during the day, Gago probably would suffer from insomnia at night. Before going to bed, he went to the gym to consume his physical energy. Only when his body was tired could he rest peacefully.Coincidentally, in the gym, Gago saw Zanetti, Inter Milan captain shirtless, exercising his muscles.

The two chatted for a few words, and they were still very optimistic about Gago, the junior Zanetti, and wanted to talk very happily.Zanetti vaguely revealed during the period that Moratti wanted to bring him to Meazza, but Gago directly refused.After all, he is very happy in Real Madrid now. As long as the club does not demand him in terms of salary, he will basically not leave the Bernabeu voluntarily.

"It's a pity, but if you want to leave Real Madrid in the future, Meazza welcomes you."

Finally, Zanetti put on his coat and left after saying a word.Gago began to exercise his muscles after he left, and recently he began to gradually arrange more training plans for himself.In order to avoid injury, he must add a layer of protective muscles to his body, but not to affect the coordination of the body, and he must not turn himself into a devil with muscular muscles.The speed of this must be carefully grasped. Gago understands that the unique small skills of South American players are one of the foundations for him to gain a foothold in the giants.It takes patience to add weight to your body without compromising your delicate footwork.

Since this training room had already been booked by the Argentine national team, Gago didn't have to worry that people from Kou Kou's side would come here to influence him, so he relaxed and practiced for himself for an extra two hours.After feeling that today's training volume had reached its limit, Gago returned to his room and took a shower.Then he fell asleep on the bed, and woke up a little late the next day, but his body completely recovered from yesterday's irregular work and rest.

I picked up a newspaper while eating in the morning and saw the report of the last game last night.Unsurprisingly, Mexico won Ecuador 2:1. In the first half, Castillo took the lead. In the second half, two substitute players Blanco and Bravo scored a goal together. Ecuador was only at the end of the game. Scored a face-saving goal.

"In this case, Mexico will be the first team to qualify early in this Copa America, but Argentina will be added after today."

Gago came to a conclusion confidently after reading the newspaper.

Since today's two games in Group C are played on different venues, Argentina must start early.But the good news is that the venue this time is the same as when we played against the US team, avoiding the steps of getting familiar with the venue.Since Argentina is the favorite to win the championship, it is scheduled for the second game, which is the prime time in South America.The treatment that only belongs to the seeded team, Argentina's three group matches are arranged in this time period, which shows that the popularity of the Blue and White Army in this competition is high.

The match between Paraguay and the U.S. team, which started first, was held in Barinas. In the end, Paraguay beat the U.S. 5-0 after a 3-1 bloodbath against Colombia in the first round and became the second team to qualify for the group stage.

It is worth mentioning that in this game, Santa Cruz was closely guarded by the US team and failed to score a goal. The handsome guy who performed a hat-trick in the last round and was praised to the sky instantly returned to the ground.However, this generation of Paraguay has many capable factions. When Santa Cruz was frozen, the midfielder Cardoso helped the team secure the victory with a pass and a shot.

"Next, it's our game."

Messi took off his headphones and recounted the game in detail.

"How many goals are we going to score in this game?"

Crespo asked a question that Gago was very familiar with, but this time he answered the same answer as Riquelme, the core midfielder.

"At least four, but the next game is against Paraguay. Let's preserve our strength properly and try our best to solve the game in the first half."

Riquelme's words made everyone agree. There is no need to consume too much energy for a declining Colombia. Their goal is to qualify first in the group. The final battle of this group is between them and Paraguay.As winners of the Copa America [-] times, only the top of the group is worthy of their status.

At this time, the head coach Basile walked into the locker room, and he was very satisfied with the expressions of the players.Confident but able to recognize the form clearly, there is no reason not to win this year's competition.

"The starting lineup will be announced below, goalkeeper Abundan Sheri..."

There is no difference from the starting lineup in the previous game. After seeing the 6:1 massacre of the US team, Basile has already determined the strongest lineup in Argentina. Save strength and prepare for the team's final opponent, Paraguay.

However, the development of the game was beyond Basile's expectations, and it was Colombia who scored first.The lineup configuration of the Blue and White Army in this competition is almost perfect, but the strong offense and weak defense have always been the problem of Pampas.

Less than 10 minutes into the game, Colombia took advantage of a corner kick to take the lead.This was a tactical corner kick. When it reached the penalty area, the players in ambush outside the penalty area shot directly.Ayala stretched out his foot in time to block it, but let the ball change direction and bounced to No. 7 Perea's feet. The latter's heel was easily cushioned, and the ball rolled into the near corner.

Colombia leads Argentina 1-0.

But this goal aroused the anger of all the Argentine players, and the stars in the midfield burst out instantly.First of all, Gago and Riquelme's continuous collision with the wall from the center completely tore apart Colombia's center line defense.In the end, the Colombian defender was forced to put Gago to block the progress of the two.

However, the referee was not relentless and directly awarded a penalty kick. Crespo made it overnight, and Colombia was equalized after only 8 minutes ahead.

But what made Gago dumbfounded was that Crespo immediately made a substitution gesture after taking the penalty kick. It turned out that he strained his thigh when taking the penalty kick just now, and Basile was stunned on the sidelines.

However, Argentina's offense did not stop because of Crespo's end. Riquelme dribbled the ball in the middle and made a series of changes of rhythm to dodge two defensive players before splitting.After Gago stopped the ball on the left, he took a look at the situation in the penalty area, and then made an arc and transferred the ball into the penalty area.Milito, who had just played, seized this opportunity very well, followed up with a header, and the ball flew into the goal after bouncing off the ground.

Before the end of the first half, Riquelme took advantage of a beautiful direct free kick to make another victory. After the ball crossed the wall, it drew a beautiful arc and hit the net.

After scoring a goal from Colombia, Argentina scored three goals in a row. The gorgeous cooperation of the central and frontcourt stars completely blew up Colombia's self-confident defense.

And the cheers from the fans in the stands were about to break through the sky!
