Chapter 917 China VS Argentina, new hatred and old hatred come together

"We tried our best. The Greek team played very well in their skills and tactics. We suppressed them in the half of the game, but Messi's injury left the court and the other players were in poor condition, which hurt Argentina very much." Maradona looked frustrated at the press conference and his expression was very ugly.

He kept pressing his ears with his left index finger, as if his ears were itchy all the time, and he had never stopped this action.

The King of Football does not care about what action he does no matter what occasion.

"I know a lot of people think we don't win on purpose, but this speculation is quite ridiculous! At this moment, I feel more angry than anyone else because I never accept failure. Since I played for Argentina, I hope the team will do their best to win every game for the team!"

He pouted and spread his hands: "But this is the case with football. It's not because you are strong, you can win. We have to get used to it."

"Messi is also as angry as me. I originally let him play the whole game, but there was a surprise in the first half. I was worried that his injury would worsen, so I firmly replaced him. Believe me, he was really unhappy. He wanted to score goals and he wanted to be the best scorer in the World Cup. I can understand this mood, but for the whole of Argentina, I had to do this because we all want a healthy Messi and then win the World Cup."

"Now, we should focus on the knockout stage. Our opponent is the Chinese team. We must be prepared to face them. We must know that they are the first in Group A, but we have the confidence to eliminate them. They have a genius, but we have 11 geniuses, and that's where our advantage lies."

"We have Messi, Aguero, Tevez, Pastorre, Di Maria, Gago, Lavic... both fingers are too big to count."

"We will tell China in the knockout round that we can advance to the quarterfinals."

With 11 geniuses, Maradona is naked and doesn’t take the Chinese team seriously. What is the Chinese team with Dong Fangzhuo? We have so many geniuses that we can beat the Chinese team hard and advance to the quarterfinals. That’s what Maradona means.

Maradona also brought his son-in-law Aguero to attend the press conference, and Aguero also expressed his own opinion: "It is unfortunate to lose to Greece, but we are still in the World Cup. What we are considering now is the knockout match against the Chinese team. A few days later, I think we will work hard to enter the quarterfinals. I will never forget the pain of losing in the Olympic finals, so the knockout match against the Chinese team will be a battle of revenge. I think Messi thinks the same. We have met the best opponent, which is God's arrangement!"

Aguero is also unforgettable for the Olympic final defeat, and they are full of hatred for China.

Subsequently, Argentina also avoided the important issues.

"Opportunity in the quarterfinals! China!" Argentina's "Horse" reported and prospected: "In the third round of the group stage, Argentina defeated the Greek team and bombarded the country, but in the end it lost 0:1. Winning and losing did not affect Argentina's advance to the World Cup quarterfinals, but it was a blessing in disguise. We met the Chinese team. Old hatred and new hatred. Playing the knockout round with the Chinese team may be a fate and the best result. Avoiding Uruguay to play China, Argentina also entered the first half. As long as nothing unexpected happens, Argentina should be able to go very far..."

How far can you go?

The Herald said in more detail: "After winning China and advancing to the quarterfinals, Argentina's opponent is not strong, and it doesn't matter who the winners of Ghana and the United States are. Then advance to the semi-finals, and the semi-finals may meet Brazil or the Netherlands. In any case, this is the most worthy of the Argentine's expectations for the World Cup."

The Herald seems to have smelled the World Cup semi-finals and did not take the Chinese team seriously at all. It also 'reminded' the nationals, "We have been defeated by the Chinese national Olympic team in the Olympics. This time, the national team must take revenge! When Messi proved himself, he finally knew that the strongest teammates in the entire Argentina are by his side. If he can't beat China Dong, then this year's Golden Globe Awards will be dangerous again."

"The Nationality" believes that Maradona is very lucky: "Some people say that Argentina lost the game on purpose, but in the game we saw that every player wanted to win for Argentina, everyone tried their best, but God needs us to fight against China, so we went. Maradona has good luck. Argentina successfully entered the coveted upper half and met China. If everything goes well, Argentina can at least reach the semi-finals in this World Cup. If Messi is more powerful, maybe we will be the World Cup champion in 2010."

Several major newspapers did not say that Maradona's team played counterfeit football, and they all looked forward to Argentina's future in the World Cup. Even Argentine Football Association Chairman Grondona also stood up to denounce the media of other countries for irresponsible reports: "European media are always so irresponsible because they can't stand the good of South American teams. People who watched the game know that Argentina has tried their best, but luck is not on our side. They have such unreasonable speculations are extremely disrespectful to Greece. Everyone is fighting for the World Cup, but Argentina unfortunately lost."

"These rumors cannot stop Argentina from moving forward. Argentina will always fight for the championship!"

In Asia, Koreans are going to laugh crazy because they think the Korean team has done an amazing thing and created a new football history for the Korean team.

"The first in the group, beat Argentina! The pride of Asia!" South Korea's "East Asia Ilbo" headlines reported the news, "South Korea beat Nigeria 2:0 and beat the hottest World Cup Argentina to become the first in the group. This is a great victory in Korean football history. The Korean team proved to the world that Asian teams can also be better than South American teams!"

The Chosun Ilbo continued to put a light on South Korea's face: "In Asia, it is not only the Chinese team that can be the first in the group, but South Korea can also win the first in the group. China defeated the French team without fighting spirit, while South Korea is riding on the hottest in the World Cup!"

The Korean media are very shameless because they forget that they lost to Argentina in the group stage...

However, Chinese people who are familiar with Korea are used to it. Even if they say that football was invented by South Korea, it is not surprising at all...

The same is true for Korean fans, who have spoken online to praise their national team.

"Although we don't have superstars, we have a more awesome team."

"Beating Uruguay and advancing to the quarterfinals is not an unforgettable task. We are going to recreate the glory of the 2002 World Cup."

Shameless, they never thought about how the 2002 Korean and Japanese World Cup came into being.

There is a contradiction in Uruguay. After all, they have great advantages in fighting South Korea, but after fighting South Korea, they are likely to encounter Germany, which seems to be a tragedy in the advantage.

If Uruguay is in the upper half, they will directly beat Argentina, which seems to be more risky. If they win Argentina, it will be a smooth road...

So they are not so concerned about the results of Group B. They have no choice but to be in the lower half of the area...

In Europe, there is another picture, especially the English media. Because England and Argentina have national hatreds, and because of the war on the Falklands, both countries are basically hostile at any level, so their reports are all centered on negative news.

The Times pointed out directly: "Fake the ball! The cowardly king of football, the dirty Argentina!"

The same front page headlines, the reason for their 0:1 Argentina's 0:1 loss was all attributed to the conspiracy: "Argentina has 10,000 reasons not to lose the game, but they still lost. Why? Because they don't want to meet the Chinese team in the second half, they want to meet the Chinese team. It's not that they want to take revenge, but that the team in the upper half is very weak. As long as they get second in the group, they can basically successfully reach the semi-finals. So Maradona and his team played a dirty game, and the whole team revolved around losing!"

The Daily Mail's view is exactly the same: "Cracking Messi out and then deliberately losing the game is all Maradona's tricks, just as disgusting and dirty as his hand of God back then!"

The Guardian pointed out: "All this was actually planned three days ago. At that time, many media believed that Argentina would deliberately lose the game, and then let the South Korean team win the first place in the group. Then they naturally came to the first half of the area and met the team they liked."

The Sun pointed out seriously: "In the locker room, Maradona even told their players that we were going to lose, lose, lose! Then, the result was losing."

Of course, reports like "The Sun" are irresponsible because they cannot know the content of the Argentine locker room. These are all fabricated, but are these important? It is not important, because many fans speculate and think so, and there is something wrong with Argentina.

Although German Bild's Bild did not say that Maradona led the team to lose the game on purpose, their ridicule was undoubtedly revealed: "The Argentines should laugh at the accidental loss to Greece, because they are likely to meet Germany in the quarter-game. We believe that they are afraid of us, and now, they should be very grateful that they went to a relatively easy half-zone."

French "Team" is very envious: "It's different for everyone... If France can have such a choice, it won't be home in the group stage. However, Argentina loses to Greece, the result is really doubtful. I believe FIFA will intervene in the investigation."

The Spanish media also had a mocking tone, because Spain is also in the second half of the area. "Maca" mocked: "Messi took Argentina to escape from the second half of the area. They are lucky. The opponent is actually the Chinese team. No matter what, they can reach the quarterfinals."

Only the Chinese media appear very innocent.

Tencent Sports posted: "It's so fake. The opponent of the Chinese team is obviously the South Korean team, but it turned out to be Argentina. Argentina definitely played a fake game. They just lost the game on purpose and wanted to play against the Chinese team on purpose."

Sohu.com: "The king of football cannot believe it these days. Maradona is obviously just letting the team lose. Don't look at him looking indignant at the press conference. In fact, he is acting, and his routine is too deep."

People's Daily: China vs. Argentina, the Olympic finals are repeated! Old hatreds and new grievances come together, Argentina thinks China is easy to bully? This war may be decided by who wins. I believe Clauchen and Dong Fangzhuo are prepared!

The official FIFA website had to stand up and expressed its views as soon as possible: We were closely watching throughout the game, there was no problem with this game, it was a game that was more exciting and fierce. It is certain that the first two knockout matches of the World Cup have already come out, that is, Uruguay vs. South Korea, China vs. Argentina...
