20 The Son of the Wind Returns to Earth

20 The Son of the Wind Returns to Earth

The news that the Argentines had a 2-0 lead over Sweden in the first half soon spread to another field that kicked off at the same time...

The English had a zero-to-zero battle with Nigeria in the first half, but when they heard the news that the Argentine was leading 2-0, the morale of the players was greatly boosted! Because this means that as long as they win Nigeria, they will be able to successfully qualify from the group.

At the same time, during the intermission, the 35-year-old Argentine veteran Caniggia was left on the court by Bielsa to warm up. Bielsa told him: "Claudio, prepare to play in the second half!"

When hearing Bielsa's words, the thirty-five-year-old Caniggia burst into tears at that moment. ?? Soccer King 20

It was the awesome performance of his teammates that gave him the chance to play again in the World Cup!

The spirit of the Swedes was completely lost by the Argentines. The performance of the Argentines on the field gave them the feeling that they were simply unstoppable.

The Swedes began to wonder if the 2-2 between Argentina and England was a tacit goal, or else how could it be possible to score two goals for Argentina with the level of those bastards!

In the first half of today's game, the Swede had zero shots!

It is said that Leon, who retired from the background of this game, started to be tossed by everyone as soon as he returned to the locker room. This one came to say to touch the golden boy's head for good luck, and this one said to pinch the golden boy's face so that he can pick up girls...

In short, why does Leon feel that his captain is so lacking in authority!

What a pity!

But from a side point of view, for the Argentines, this is a good thing, because at least it shows the harmony of the atmosphere in the Argentine team!

No wonder the Celestial Dynasty has always emphasized harmony in the past. Only when there is harmony can prosperity be achieved.

But why is harmony achieved by kneading me?

...

Fifteen minutes of the intermission passed quickly. In the second half of the game, Argentina replaced the clown Aimar who had tormented Sweden's defense alone in the first half, and replaced him with the long-lost Caniggia...

This substitution of the Argentine team also made all the fans who supported the Argentine team at the Sendai Stadium stand up and applaud Caniggia, the son of the wind!

A generation of legendary stars!

At this time, how many old fans watched this scene in front of the TV with emotion!

After his debut, Caniggia gave each teammate a cordial high-five, and then threw himself into the game.

The veteran, who is about to retire, enjoyed the last game of his national team wholeheartedly. Originally, Leon proposed to hand over the captain's armband of the Argentine national team to Caniggia in the second half of the game.

Caniggia himself, however, refused.

"This Argentina, Leon, you are the well-deserved captain!" Caniggia said to Leon, patting his shoulder. ?? Soccer King 20

Caniggia's words also put Leon under pressure.

Fortunately, his current strength has been raised to the star level... he can better help the Argentine team, otherwise, Leon really feels that he is regarded so highly by Caniggia and other old Argentine players... I am really ashamed.

After Caniggia made his debut in the second half, Argentina's offensive slowed down a lot.

After all, Leon put the focus of the task on defense today. As the saying goes, both offense and defense are strong, and whichever one is caught is lost.

However, the Swedes really have no good way to find opportunities in the defense of the Argentine team. The combination of Simeone and Leonwell alone makes it extremely difficult for them to break through the past...

In the second half of the game, the Argentine players did their best to create opportunities for Caniggia to perform. The Zonda, who was working hard in the Scottish Super League, could no longer have the lightning speed, but when he took the ball and broke through Sweden Time seemed to turn back when linebacker Alex Anderson...

Argentine fans seem to have seen the Zonda at its peak.

This kind of performance, one look, one less look, Caniggia can win bursts of applause at the scene every time he takes the ball!

Claudio Caniggia, remember the name of this Argentine star, the son of Argentina! His career experience and glory book may not be regarded as great by some people, but his wind-like speed and his unsolvable overtaking in the World Cup will definitely be remembered by the history of the World Cup.

...

This is Caniggia's last game in the national team. In the knockout round, Caniggia dare not expect to be able to play against the young Aimar, the talented Gallardo, and the outstanding performance of this season. Kiley Gonzalez and others Competing for the main position, so for Caniggia, he cherishes every minute of playing in the national team.

The Swedes are destined to become background emperors today!

In the 81st minute of the second half, Caniggia finally came!

In the 1994 World Cup, Maradona, who returned to the national team, told Basile, then the head coach of the Argentine national team: If I don't bring Caniggia, then I will quit the national team!

It is conceivable how important Caniggia was to Argentina in the eyes of Lao Ma back then!

At that time, when the Argentine national team recalled Caniggia, who had not played an official game for more than a year, the national team, which was worried about him, conducted a physical test on him.

And his terrifying physical test results told the Argentine coach that this young man's speed reached 100 meters in 10 seconds 23! Yes, this is not Caniggia's peak speed!

The most terrifying thing about him is his speed in the first 30 meters. In world football, Caniggia's speed is absolutely unprecedented. Moreover, Zonda not only has speed, but also has excellent foot skills. The wind of the Si Prairie...he is the son of the wind.

Today's background is the Swedish right back-Alex Anderson was left behind by Caniggia with the latter's most iconic forced overtaking!

When the wind blows over the grassland, the whole world applauds for Caniggia!

Canigia's Cyclonus Rush! It's been too long, too long. Four years ago, Passarella was stubborn. Even if Caniggia was willing to cut off his long hair, he didn't take Caniggia with him...

Four years later, Caniggia's hard work in the Soviet Super League allowed Bielsa to bring him in at the last moment. ?? Soccer King 20

This year, he was thirty-five years old.

But Zonda is still Zonda, his long hair is still the same, people seem to have returned to the most glorious era of Argentina, Diego Maradona turned the tide, Batty the God of War is a fledgling, Caniggia is only fast, Redondo is magnificent, Zanetti, Veron and other teenagers are still young...

This is a country where geniuses emerge in large numbers and superstars gather.

This is the last performance that Caniggia left to the world on the stage of the World Cup, and this is the last memory that Caniggia left to the world...

He swept across the turf like a gust of wind, and no one could stop his progress!

His name is Claudio Caniggia!

Caniggia cuts past Alex Anderson and cuts across the middle, and Ortega scores his first goal of the World Cup ... Ya's cross pass shot into the net.

After the goal, Ortega ran towards Caniggia, and all the Argentine teammates gathered in the middle.

"His speed is still so fast." The Argentine commentators were silent, and the fans all over the world were silent.

At this moment, at the Sendai Stadium in Japan, all the Swedish fans stood up and applauded Caniggia. Yes, whether it is hostile or neutral, or Argentina's own fans are applauding Caniggia at this moment!

Although the score of 3-0 means that the Swedes may miss the round of 16, but at this moment, the Swedes chose to give their applause to Caniggia, the magnificent Argentine veteran, instead of qualifying.

Long hair fluttering, the speed is still the same.

Caniggia's assists and Ortega's goal sealed the final game for Argentina. In three group matches, Argentina won two wins and one draw and advanced to the round of 16 with the top spot in the group!

Their opponent in the round of 16 will be Senegal, the black horse of Africa who had a shocking upset in the World Cup opener.

And after the match between Argentina and Sweden, on another field in Osaka, the match between England and Nigeria had gone on for eighty-eight minutes, and the score between England and the African Eagles was still zero to zero...

Because of the difference in stoppage time in the first half of the two games, the result of this game will be delayed by about two minutes.

At this time, news came from the Osaka World Cup Stadium that Argentina had defeated Sweden 3-0...

This means that if the English end in a draw, then they will miss the round of 16.

Michael Owen had one last chance for England just before the whistle, a free-kick from just outside the box and Owen was tripped by the Nigerian defender as he broke through in front of the box...

David Beckham, the twenty-seven-year-old captain of the England national team, walked towards the ball at this time.

In the last game, they were robbed of three points by Leonwell's free kick lore. Today Beckham also ushered in a free kick lore.

In 2001, he sent England to the stage of the Korea-Japan World Cup with one goal. Now, in the World Cup, can he still send England to the top 16 with one kick?

England fans all over the world held their breath at this moment, and everyone was nervously waiting for Beckham to take this free kick.

"Beckham's run-up!!!!!!"

A few seconds later, news came from the Osaka World Cup Stadium that England had defeated Nigeria 1-0. The Three Lions finally took the last train at the last minute!

The Swedes, who have been waiting for the news at the Sendai Stadium, are very regretful. They already had 4 points before facing Argentina. Originally, they only needed one point to qualify...

But the World Cup is like this, until the last moment, don't be full of confidence until the dust settles...

Life is like drawing a lottery, you have to gamble every day!

Speaking of which, after the match between Argentina and Sweden, Leon also took the bus back to the hotel with his teammates. One-eighth of their games were still played in Japan, because they were the first in the group, so they didn't have to fly around. Go, and the England team will have to fly to South Korea to compete...

The joy of qualifying is written on the faces of every Argentine player. It is great to be able to advance undefeated in the group of death, and the Argentine team scored eight goals in three games, although there were two conceded goals ...But the powerful offensive firepower displayed by the Argentines still made them the number one favorite to win the championship in the knockout stage!

And the team behind them in the call to win the championship... was the Brazil team that beat Costa Rica 5-2 at the Suwon World Cup Stadium in South Korea one day after Argentina qualified!

The terrifying three-r combination of Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, and Rivaldo began to make the world realize that the superstars of Brazil are not here to travel!

In addition, a regrettable thing also happened. The Portuguese team became the first team to be hacked. Although the referee did not make any obvious misjudgments in this game, several key penalties were The bias towards South Korea has greatly affected the fighting spirit of the Portuguese superstars...

After Zidane went home, his good teammate Figo in Real Madrid also went...

The Italians qualified after a thrilling draw with Mexico... They will face the host South Korea in the round of 16.

So far, the top 16 of this World Cup have all been born...

France and Portugal's failure to qualify for the top 16 will inevitably make the knockout round lack some excitement, but the wonderful performances of South American duo Brazil and Argentina also let people appreciate excellent technical football!

The curtain of the knockout round is about to begin...
