"***? Argentina is two goals behind the Netherlands?"

"Let me go... Is Merry going to be eliminated in the quarterfinals again? What does this mean? From now on, Merry might as well change his name to 'Eighth Brother!'"

"The game has been over seventy minutes, and Argentina is still two goals behind. It's about to end..."

After the recovery training, the Chinese team players learned the real-time score of the match between Argentina and the Netherlands.

When they heard that the Dutch team was leading Argentina by two goals, many people couldn't believe their ears.

Then they all picked up their mobile phones to ask for confirmation.

When I saw the score, I still couldn't believe my eyes.

It's not that they look down on the Dutch team.

From a comparison of strength, Argentina is indeed stronger than the Dutch team.

Of course, the strength is limited.

Mainly because of this strong dialogue, the Dutch team felt "one-sided".

There is no need to look at the process, just looking at the score is enough to explain a lot of things.

Is Argentina also a paper tiger?

In fact, they have the same virtues as the English cats?

The Chinese players were shocked and a little gloating.

Because of the competitive relationship between Julay and Melli, many Chinese players actually want Argentina to lose.

In this way, Melik is not qualified to compete with our Hu Lai for the title of who is the best in the world.

After Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia in its first World Cup group match, many Chinese players hoped that Argentina could continue its efforts, create greater glory, and strive to lose another game and not even qualify for the group stage.

In the end, when the Argentina team narrowly qualified from the group stage, they were still regretful...

Now seeing that after 75 minutes of the game, the Netherlands still led Argentina by two goals, the thought came to their minds again:

Argentina should be finished this time!

※※※

There were loud shouts in the stadium, including cheers from Dutch fans and roars from Argentinian fans.

The game time is getting shorter and shorter, leaving Argentina with fewer and fewer opportunities.

Argentinian fans can only cheer for their team through cheers in the stands.

Argentina, two goals behind, had no choice but to attack desperately.

The Dutch team shrinks its defense and plays defensive counterattacks if conditions permit. If not, it only defends without counterattacks.

Anyway, they are now two goals ahead. As long as they don't make mistakes, their hope of winning the game will greatly increase.

Melli is driving forward with the ball, and next to him are players from the Dutch team.

In front is a complete defense line composed of four people.

Behind him are two Dutch players who are chasing him.

Although he was trapped in a tight siege, Melly did not choose to pass the football out, but continued to dribble.

Until he pressed further towards Dutch left back Lorenzo Verritt, who stepped forward to steal the ball.

He just distributed the football into the space behind Verritt.

Ramon Cantero, who followed up on the right, ran in after the football and passed the ball directly without stopping!

The football rolled toward the center of the turf.

But he was blocked by Dutch center back Jens Keating with his trailing heel!

The football bounced and flew outside the penalty area. Argentinian right back Pablo Osqui rushed up and volleyed directly in front of the football!

Danny Drew uses his body to block the football!

The football blocked by Drew bounced high, and then passed through a header relay by a group of Dutch "masters", and was finally successfully cleared off the sideline.

"Argentina's offensive has picked up during this time! But it's not easy to break through the Dutch team's goal! Danny Drew is like a wall blocking their path!"

In the TV broadcast, Melli was clapping his hands hard and shouting something to his teammates.

"Melli is encouraging his teammates...don't just encourage! You are the team leader

The team's captain, number one star, and core, you should stand up personally! "

The narrator's tone was much harsher when he faced Merry.

This is normal.

Who makes Melli one of the top players in football today?

Naturally, everyone's expectations for him are greater than for ordinary players.

The requirements are also higher.

While you enjoy the cheers and worship, you must also bear the corresponding responsibilities and pressure.

Especially when this kind of team is in trouble, if Melli, as a superstar, doesn't step forward, can he still expect his teammates to help him?

What is a superstar?

It is to be able to save the team in difficult and desperate situations.

If you can't do this, you can at best be considered a first-rate star, definitely not a super player.

To put it bluntly, if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

If Argentina is eventually eliminated, Melli's performance in this game will definitely be sprayed after the game.

At that time, people didn't care how many brilliant achievements and incredible performances he had before. He would be nailed to the pillar of shame until he came down to earth next time in the World Cup to break the curse. Otherwise people would keep bringing up the fact that he sleepwalked throughout the quarter-finals of the 2034 World Cup in China, sitting with his hands on his hips and watching his team get eliminated, while doing nothing.

Before this attack, Argentina had another attack, in which Melli dribbled the ball from the right to the center, which was the "Melli Corridor" he was familiar with.

There was no problem with the pass in front of him, but the last shot hit high and wide, and did not threaten the Dutch team's goal at all.

At that time, there was a lot of criticism in the commentary box.

The TV broadcast gave a close-up of Melli, who was now loudly encouraging his teammates.

But the commentators are right. At this time, what teammates need is not his verbal encouragement, but actions.

People say that Merry can do almost anything, so now is the time to prove it.

※※※

"...The game has reached the 85th minute, and the score is still 2:0. The Dutch team is leading! Argentina is pressing almost all the way. Under such circumstances, as long as the Dutch team can launch a successful counterattack, they will be completely killed. Game! But in fact, even if the Dutch team does not score, at this point in time, the score of 2:0 is likely to kill the game..."

While the commentator said this, Argentina on the field was still attacking.

Melly frequently dropped back to get the ball and used his own dribbling to organize the offense.

He is the best in the world in terms of ball ability, but now he must rely on this "Sword of Heaven".

Melly, who once again got the football, took the ball from the wing and cut in diagonally.

He soon faced the first defender, Dutch defensive midfielder Mick Hardveld.

However, Hardveld did not step up to steal the ball, but stood in front of Melly.

The reason why he didn't dare to attack was because he was afraid of being passed by Merry.

Sure enough, Melli made a fake move in front of Hardveld to break through in a straight line, which deceived Hardveld into taking a step back.

Melly just feinted a shot, and after Hardveld made room, he continued to dribble the ball diagonally towards the center.

Seeing that Merry didn't come over, Hardveld had no choice but to press forward again, but he no longer dared to make a move rashly and could only run beside him.

He plans to close the door and defend with his teammate Van Der Stern - if Melly continues to dribble the ball like this, he will enter Van Der Stern's defense zone.

The latter was already waiting for him in front of the penalty area.

But just when everyone thought Melli was going to continue dribbling, Melli, who had been immersed in dribbling, suddenly sent a through ball with his left foot!

The football quickly passed by Hardveld and found the space between the Dutch center back Danny Drew and the left back Verritt!

To be precise, it was Ramon Cantero who pushed forward in that space!

Veriter, who was squeezed behind Cantero, stretched his legs and thought

Wrecking the ball, it was missed - Cantero led the football into the penalty area first!

Danny Drew rushed over to intercept, but Cantero got ahead of him and stabbed goalkeeper Tone Schulman in the face!

The football flew past Schulman and into the goal!

"Hit the goal - the ball goes in!!! Cantero!! He pulled a goal back for Argentina! Beautiful goal, wonderful assist from Melli! After attracting the attention of all the Dutch defense, he suddenly Unknowingly, he sent a penetrating through ball! It caught the Dutch defense off guard!"

"In the 86th minute, Argentina scored! 1:2! The difference between the two teams was reduced to one goal! Considering that the injury time will be longer, the suspense of this game is back!"

After completing the assist, Melly pointed to the football in the goal and reminded Cantero not to celebrate, but to pick up the football first and let the game resume quickly.

"This is right, this is right! As the core and leader of the team, you should behave like this! Use practical actions to help the team equalize the score, rather than just shouting a few nice slogans!"

"Melli passed the ball beautifully! He alone made the entire Dutch team's defense throw a ball and fell into a passive position!"

"His ball ability ranks first in history. That's not a boast! This is the best experience of Melli's ability! Why doesn't Hardeveld dare to go up and press Melli? It's because he's afraid of being passed by Melli! But Melli You don't need to be superior to others, you can still create a threat! The current Merry is not the same Merry who only pursued solo fighting when he was young!"

Unlike the widespread criticism of Melli before, now the commentary box is full of voices praising Melli.

This is football, winner takes all.

You have the right to breathe if you behave well!

Cantero picked up the football and ran back, meeting Melli waiting for him on the way.

Mellie put her arm around his shoulders and squeezed his arm hard.

Then he let go of Cantero and waved his hands upward, signaling the Argentinian fans at the scene to cheer for the team!

The cheers were indeed louder!

"Argentina's momentum is rising! Melli! At this moment, he is the well-deserved leader of this team! He has grown from the 'young eagle' to the 'eagle king'!"

While the commentator said this, the TV broadcast showed the former "Eagle King" Fiorijo Igovara in the stands. The 67-year-old man was also waving his fist to the court in response to Melli's action.

His face flushed with excitement.

In previous games, the Eagle King kept praying for the team, and now God finally answered him.

※※※

Argentina's morale was boosted after getting a goal back, and they continued to attack the Dutch team's goal.

The Dutch team was a little too relaxed. They wanted to counterattack, but because of Argentina's crazy counterattack, they were completely unable to attack.

Coupled with the change in mentality, the players were obviously more nervous than when they were two goals ahead.

Their lead was reduced to just one ball, which was like a small ditch that could be easily crossed in front of the almost omnipotent Melli.

This mentality of almost fear of Melli has indeed greatly affected the performance of Dutch players.

In the 92nd minute of the game, with seven minutes left before the end of stoppage time, Melli picked up the ball at the front of the Dutch team's penalty area and was knocked to the ground by Van der Stern.

The commentators criticized one after another: "There is no need for Van der Stern to foul here! There is a Dutch player next to Melli... Just stick to him..."

Indeed, what they said was correct, but Vanderstern's mentality at the time could not be explained by rational analysis. When a person is highly nervous, it is reasonable for him to react in any incredible way.

Because of Van der Stern's foul, Argentina received a free kick that was only about 27 meters away from the goal.

Melly stood in front of the football without hesitation, ready to take the free kick himself.

Seven people from the Dutch team formed a dense wall - six standing

, one is lying down.

When the wall lined up and Melli stood behind the football, the stadium that had been buzzing for ninety-three minutes suddenly became a lot quieter.

Both Dutch and Argentinian fans pursed their lips tightly and looked in front of the Dutch team's penalty area.

The television cameras were also firmly focused on Mellie.

There was even a camera shot from behind the goal, giving a close-up of Melli's face.

In the close-up shot, Melli's expression is calm, and he even looks down slightly, as if he dare not look directly at the goal.

"Melli is going to take this free kick. He is already the number one free kick taker in Madrid..."

Even the commentator's voice was much softer when he spoke, as if he was afraid of affecting Merry on the field.

So in this silence, the referee's whistle sounded particularly clear.

When the whistle sounded, Melli, who was standing behind the football, did not take a running start. Instead, he took a step forward and shot with his feet!

The football drew a rainbow-like arc, bypassing the Dutch team's wall and heading straight to the top corner of the Dutch team's goal!

The Dutch goalkeeper Tone Schulmann saw the football coming from behind the wall. He didn't even have time to make a save, and the football went into the goal like a meteor!

The stadium that was quiet just now instantly turned into a violent erupting volcano!

"Melli——!!! Ahhhh! It's incredible! It's incredible! In the 92nd minute of the game, Argentina equalized the score! They actually completed an amazing feat when they were two goals behind. reverse!"

"Melli! He caught the team when Argentina was about to fall into the abyss! Then he single-handedly pulled the team up again!"

"Miracle! A real miracle! The World Cup is a stage where miracles are born!"

"What is a superstar? This is it!"

The commentary box went crazy.

The fans in the stands were even crazier.

Han Shuyu was stunned: "I'm Ba'ao! I'm Ba'ao! I'm Ba'ao! I'm Ba'ao! I'm Ba'ao!!"

The stands on either side of her were still half fire and half ice.

Only this time it’s the other way around!
