Chapter 418 Britain is smart, Argentina is unhappy
In the second half, the two sides exchanged offensive directions.

The England team launched a decisive attack as soon as they kicked off.

Lampard kicked the ball to Walker, Walker kicked it to Trippier, and Trippier made a long pass to Vardy.

Demichelis harassed Vardy and destroyed the ball.

But Sterling ran fast and when he tried to take a long shot, Mascherano tackled the ball from behind.

The football flew towards the Argentina goal and went over the crossbar.

Xiao Ma Ge’s clearance was a skillful and bold move. If he wasn’t careful, it would have been a conceded goal or an own goal.

But he was able to turn the inevitable death situation into something more resilient.

In the 49th minute, Sterling passed the ball to Vardy on the left and broke into the penalty area.

Demichelis also followed Mascherano’s example and made a bold move by directly making a tackle.

As a result, Sterling pushed the ball away and was tackled to the ground.

The referee blew his whistle.

Yellow card + penalty, no negotiation!
The Argentine players were so excited.

We can catch up if we are two goals behind, but it will be troublesome if we are three goals behind.

Unfortunately, no matter how they argued, the referee was unable to change the decision.

For England, the first penalty taker is Gerrard, but he is not on the field today.

In the end, Rooney took the penalty kick.

Vardy’s position in the national team is still a little young, and he himself is more willing to give face to Rooney, so he did not fight for it.

Although his number of goals should have allowed him to compete with Dong Fangzhuo for the World Cup Golden Boot.

Soon, Rooney lived up to expectations and scored a penalty kick, completing his second goal.

Three to zero!
England continued to expand their lead.

Argentina’s midfield adjustments did not have much effect.

In the 52nd minute, Sterling cut in from the left and passed Biglia through the crotch.

The latter quickly pulled and tore Sterling’s jersey.

The referee had to give Biglia a yellow card.

In the 55th minute, Albrighton sent a straight pass from the right to Rooney.

Rooney leaned against Mascherano and passed the ball to Vardy.

After Vardy stopped the ball, it was blocked by Garay, but Vardy turned around and poked the ball back to Lampard before Mascherano pounced.

Lampard shot from outside the arc, a world-class goal that cut through the sky.

The football finally stirred up white waves.

“GOAL! Lampard scored a world-class goal! He finally scored the first goal of his World Cup career!”

“It’s not easy! Lampard’s form in this World Cup is not good, and his performance is far worse than that of the core midfielder Gerrard. But when Gerrard is not there, he still shoulders the responsibility of the big brother.”

“This goal may be the turning point for Lampard’s improvement!”

“Four to zero! The game was messed up! Argentina’s iron-blooded defense failed to cause trouble for England, because the Premier League games have always been of this intensity.”

“In addition, He Tianqi’s targeted defense against Messi is also the key. Argentina, having lost its minions, can only struggle!”

“We have always stressed that there are problems with the offensive training of this Argentina team. Although they have top offensive players such as Messi, Di Maria, Higuain and Aguero, everyone is isolated and cannot produce chemical reactions.”

On the sidelines, England’s substitute players were celebrating wildly.

The England team blossomed in many places.

Famous players scored goals one after another.

England have not reached a World Cup final since 1966.

Forty-eight years of anticipation were finally realized at the moment of shooting down the Pampas Eagle.

How do you keep the Three Lions calm?

In the 61st minute, Lampard got into the groove and made a straight pass.

Sterling rushed forward to grab the ball and was about to overtake Garay, who had no choice but to wrestle him down.

Garay also received a yellow card.

Sterling made continuous cards, which was a great merit.

In the 63rd minute, both sides began to make substitutions.

On the Argentine team’s side, the head coach finally surrendered to Messi and replaced him with Messi’s close friend Aguero.

Higuain sat on the bench dejectedly, but he had no right to complain because he wasted the most opportunities today.

On the England side, Grealish replaced Sterling.

This is a protective substitution.

Kane replaced Rooney, which was a consideration for the veteran’s physical fitness.

Both of them were the main contributors to today’s victory, and the English fans at the scene gave them the warmest applause.

Because of the love for the team, the appearances of Grealish and Kane did not receive much criticism.

After all, for a competition of this level, it is a bit too arrogant to send these two young players.

The camera was particularly focused on Sturridge.

One step wrong, step by step wrong.

Sturridge has been completely benched and paid the price for his arrogance.

Not only was his position occupied by Sterling, but even the garbage time was taken away by Grealish.

In the 66th minute, the substitutions made by both sides showed results.

Grealish moved as fiercely as a tiger on the left, but when he looked at his position, he was stuck in the same spot.

But after he passed the ball back to Ashley Young, Ashley Young made a long pass to Trippier.

The latter stopped and passed, was pulled to the ground by Perez, and asked for a free kick on the front sideline.

Unfortunately, the subsequent free kick failed to create a threat.

In the 67th minute, Mascherano made a straight pass into the gap behind Lampard.

Di Maria cut inside without the ball, received the ball and changed direction with his heel, shaking off Smalling.

boom!
Di Maria shot low into the near corner.

Pickford flew to save the ball, but was a beat too slow.

The football went into the goal.

“GOAL! Argentina finally scored a goal!”

“Di Maria! At the crucial moment, Di Maria stood up again! He is the real key man of the Argentine team! An absolute big-hearted player!”

“One to four! The Argentine team has sounded the clarion call for a counterattack!”

“The game is not over yet! The angel’s wings are flapping!”

“Honestly, I think He Tianqi made the substitution a little too early. It’s fine to train the young players, but they should be replaced at least 75 minutes later, otherwise they can easily bring down the entire team.”

“Although Grealish has excellent skills, his efficiency in dribbling past opponents is extremely low. Although Kane has the physique of a fulcrum center forward, he is still a lot worse than Rooney in terms of fulcrum and supporting play, and he lacks experience.”

“Just as Argentina lost the ball after its offense was restrained, if England’s offense fails to work, the pressure on its defense will increase exponentially.”

The Argentine team immediately replaced Biglia with Gago.

The former also played as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid for a period of time, but unfortunately he did not play well due to injury.

In the 69th minute, Gago made a great contribution as soon as he came on the pitch.

A flying tackle brought Lampard down.

Not only did he not receive a yellow card, Lampard also left the field directly due to injury.

“Oh! England is in trouble! Lampard finally got his kicks going but was beaten by the Argentines.”

“Without this top veteran in the midfield, I’m afraid the team will be completely out of control.”

“What should He Tianqi do? Should he use Wilshere? This is his only choice, but Wilshere has great limitations and his athletic ability does not meet He Tianqi’s requirements for a defensive midfielder… Wait, what is this?” “Dele Alli? He Tianqi actually wants to replace Alli?”

“What’s going on? The three substitutions were all given to the Villa youngster!”

“These players can’t even be starters in the Premier League, and now they’re playing in the World Cup semi-finals!”

“This is too much of a joke! He Tianqi has too much private stuff in there, right?”

“This is definitely a wrong substitution!”

“Obviously Wilshere should be on the pitch. Although Ali seems to be in better physical condition and faster, he is also a central midfielder and his organizational ability is not as good as Wilshere’s!”

“Wenger must be very angry about He Tianqi’s substitution!”

Almost in an instant, many odds changed.

The odds on Argentina scoring a goal are falling rapidly.

The handicap shows that most people believe that Argentina is about to launch a major counterattack.

The probability of a draw between the two sides in regular time has greatly increased.

Some even thought that Argentina could pull off a comeback.

Just because England’s midfield was completely out of control.

The live commentator of Sky Sports criticized He Tianqi, saying: “He Tianqi just has a problem with England’s midfielders. He looks at all non-Villa players with tinted glasses.”

“He brought so many forwards but was unwilling to bring two more midfielders.”

“Barkley, Milner, Lallana, Chamberlain… I can’t imagine why He Tianqi rejected these players.”

“In comparison, what kind of people are the three Villa players who were substituted on today, and that Luke Shaw?”

“The England team was destroyed by He Tianqi’s private letter! This is his revenge on the British Empire as a Chinese! He just wants the British Museum to return all its collections from China!”

Some media began to attack He Tianqi.

This is also the code for traffic – predict the bad news early.

This will really be bad for the England team, and Sky Sports can come out and say, “See, I told you so.”

And if England wins in the end, everyone will be happy and no one will complain to Sky Sports.

Win twice, eh?
……

In the 71st minute, Ali, who had just come on as a substitute for more than a minute, stole the ball from Perez with his active running.

His tackling ability is not strong, and he is not very good at playing as a defensive midfielder.

But he knows what hard work looks like. The reason why He Tianqi used him instead of Wilshere was that he hoped Ali would run hard and hard work could make up for lack of talent.

Then, at the right time, play to Alibaba’s strengths.

boom!
Ali accelerated with the ball, and instead of passing it, he dribbled forward himself.

Showing that a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger!

Because it happened so suddenly, the Argentine team was unable to react for a while.

By the time Rojo and Mascherano came over, Ali had already passed the ball again, accelerated fully, and killed both of them.

“This… Ali dribbled past the defense with the ball, and this move… Kaka! Ali is possessed by Kaka! This long stride is exactly what the Brazilian team lacked the most yesterday!”

“Ali adjusted his dribbling direction and cut inside into the middle!”

“Demichelis and Garay were forced to close the door, Demichelis attacked, Ali broke into the top of the arc… pass! Beautiful pass!”

“Glarish is unguarded on the left side of the penalty area!”

“Catch the ball and shoot!”

“GOAL!!!”

“Romero’s foot touched the ball, but the ball still went into the goal. Great power works miracles!”

“Five to one! The England team has gone crazy!”

“Young player Grealish scored successfully, with good shooting skills. But the biggest contributor to this goal is undoubtedly Dele Alli, who made the steal, pushed the ball forward, and assisted! He Tianqi personally admitted that he is the only future English midfielder who can play football!”

“He Tianqi didn’t lie to us! Ali definitely has the demeanor of a great general. He changed the score in just one minute! It’s incredible!”

“No, he’s not Ali, he’s actually Dayingkaka!”

“The Villa youngster contributed a Villa connection in the World Cup semi-final! This is the purest Villa performance!”

“Who would have thought that it was not Villa’s famous players who made it to this point, such as De Bruyne, Kaka, Bale, Lukaku, Modric, Kante… but several young players of Villa!”

“Everyone who just said England was going to be overturned, stand up at attention and get beaten!”

The English were in high spirits.

Young Ali became famous with one goal!
The Argentines were completely anxious.

In the 74th minute, Kane was knocked to the ground by Demichelis in the penalty area.

The referee did not call a foul.

Kane is young and did not argue with the referee, so he suffered a loss.

In the 75th minute, Smalling passed the ball to Grealish.

Grealish slowly advanced on the left and made various fancy moves in succession.

Don’t worry about whether you can pass the opponent or not, just tell me whether it is a passing move or not!

In one word, show!

But Grealish is not doing it in vain.

When Ali rushed up from behind and continued to move forward along the left rib, Grealish made a fake move to dribble to the left to create space and then sent a straight pass!

Ali caught up with the ball deep on the left side of the penalty area and made an inverted triangle pass, but was knocked out of the sideline by Garay.

Rolling and hitting a billboard.

But Ali looked up.

Kane, his teammate on both the club and national team, made the shot in one go.

The football went into the Argentina goal.

“GOAL!!!”

“Another goal! Six to one! Oh my God!”

“Another assist from Ali! Another connection from Villa!”

“This is Harry Kane’s third goal in this World Cup! You heard it right, he is tied with Ashley Young and Rooney as the second highest scorer in the team, second only to Vardy’s four goals!”

“But his playing time is the least among the four! And he always comes on as a substitute!”

“Harry Kane, the god of efficiency!”

“Dele Alli, assisted and scored twice in five minutes. Will the future England midfielder sacrifice himself to shoot? I would like to call it ‘Great Britain has brains’!”

The English went crazy.

Singing and dancing in the corner flag area.

Ali didn’t even have time to complain to the referee about the Argentine’s malicious foul.

There is no problem that a goal can’t solve.

At this moment, countless fans were convinced by He Tianqi.

Smuggling contraband?

If the three Villa players who came on as substitutes scored two goals and provided an assist for the team in five minutes is also called smuggling, please give us more of this kind of smuggling!
This score completely extinguished Argentina’s desire to win.

In the 82nd minute, Aguero made a diagonal pass from the top of the arc.

Messi dribbled past Trippier in the penalty area and then shot into the small penalty area.

He doesn’t pursue victory anymore, but he has to score at least one goal, and it can’t be less than Ronaldo’s.

boom!
Pickford flew to save the ball and kept it out of the goal.

Messi held his head in his hands, unable to accept it, and Argentina was unhappy.

Henderson then cleared the ball.
