Midfielder Ruler

Chapter 62 Only Fear Can Resist

In the 13th round of the A-League Autumn League in the 2008 season, Boca Juniors played at home against their century-old enemy River Plate. This game was the 248th time they met in history.

In the past 247 encounters, River Plate has a slight advantage with 92 wins, 66 draws and 89 losses.

However, in recent seasons, Boca Juniors has the upper hand in the battle between the two sides, which is one of the reasons why Boca Juniors, who are playing at home, are favored by major gaming companies.

The main winning odds are 1:2.36, the tie is 1:2.98, and the main loss is 1:3.02

Tang Zheng listened to the odds analysis of a certain radio station, he took off his earphones in dissatisfaction.

Falcao, who was sitting next to him, closed his eyes and listened to the music, obviously trying to recharge his batteries.

The other teammates on the bus are not much different, they basically listen to music to relieve their tension before the game.

"Shhhhh!!"

About half an hour later, there was a sudden burst of boos like a tsunami outside the bus.

Tang Zheng looked out of the window instinctively, the densely packed Boca fans roared hysterically at the bus, and all kinds of insults came out one after another, but the soundproofing facilities of the bus are not bad, unless the decibels are extremely high, it is difficult for other sounds to pass through the window Come in.

Hearing the boos from the Boca fans, Tang Zheng got a little annoyed, so he put on his earphones again.

This time, what he listened to was no longer the radio station, but the music stored in his mobile phone, the Cantonese version of the theme song of an RB animation "Kick Out of My World" that he once liked very much.

"Kick Out of My World" tells the story of an RB high school forward who pursues his dream.

In the past, Tang Zheng's position was the striker, so listening to this song can resonate with him. Although his position has changed now, the habit he has formed is difficult to change.

And every time Tang Zheng heard this song, he always felt his whole body boiling, so he didn't continue to change the music.

As a burst of passionate music sounded, Tang Zheng slowly closed his eyes and devoted himself wholeheartedly to this divine comedy.

"...show off your skills, and write it in your diary with you. I remember that day when I became a confidant, I tried to fall down, and I still stood up before the end of the game...Keep going, go all out, not afraid of how exaggerated each opponent's moves are, and not afraid of falling Injury, I have to use my legs to create my ideal... If you sweat, flow to the auditorium, don't cry this time when you lose... I will wear a pair of golden boots with you in the future, please give me confidence..."

After the song was played, Tang Zheng opened his eyes again, took off his earphones, and the noise outside the window became louder.

However, compared to the simple wild boos before, there were faint bursts of cheers.

Looking through the window, Tang Zheng could see the fans wearing the traditional white jerseys of River Plate among the densely packed crowd. They cheered for the River Plate players in the bus between the security personnel at the scene.

Soon, the team bus stopped at the designated location of the Candy Box Stadium.

The local police in Buenos Aires were well prepared in all aspects. The police immediately used shields to form a human wall, allowing the River Plate players to get off the bus safely.

Despite this, Boca fans still took advantage of the large number of people to boo the River Plate players and shout insults.

Tang Zheng is not very well-known in the current Argentine football world, so there are no Boca fans who are particularly targeted. For example, the head coach Diego Simeone, the leading striker Falcao, Poncio, Domingo and others are all under the influence of Boca. Fans greet family members.

But these are very common phenomena for professional players, so no one cares. They just gather the anger brought by Boca fans and wait until the game starts before breaking out.

The fans have caused the trouble, and the team has to pay for it!

At least that's what Falcao thinks.

When players from both sides entered the stadium to warm up one after another, the coaches and media workers of both sides got the starting lineup of the Argentine national derby respectively.

Looking at the starting roster of the home team Boca Juniors, everyone is not surprised, it is the strongest lineup.

I thought that the River Plate team would send out the strongest lineup in existence, but what I didn't expect was that Diego Simeone actually sent the eighteen-year-old Tang Zheng in the key midfielder position, which was very surprising.

One must know that Tang Zheng only had three official matches in the past, and the combined match time was only over a hundred minutes.

In the words of Abel Claudio, the head commentator of TYC Sports TV: "This is a very risky attempt!"

At the same time, Boca Juniors head coach Carlos Ischia frowned as he looked at the River Plate starting roster in his hand. He did not deny Tang Zheng's ability, but this match was Argentina's national feast - the Super Derby.

No matter how you look at River Plate's starting lineup, it's a bit of a joke, which is incomprehensible.

However, Carlos Ischia's ability to adjust is pretty good. He thinks that since Diego Simeone decided to take the risk, he would sell a favor and adjust the focus of attack to Tang Zheng!

He believed that with the abilities of Riquelme and Banega, Tang Zheng would definitely be able to open the gap.

It's just... I don't know if this crucial super derby will make this 18-year-old Chinese teenager lose his confidence in playing football?

Thinking of this, Carlos Ischia shrugged his shoulders, Tang Zheng is from the River Plate team, so what does he have to do with him?

Thousands of miles away in China, although CCTV 5 has a plan to broadcast the Argentine national derby live, the habit has not changed. There will be no footage before the game.

So fans looking forward to this national derby can only cumbersomely jump over the wall from the live broadcast link provided by the fans in the live broadcast bar, but when they see Tang Zheng's name on the starting list, they instantly feel that all these tedious tasks are worth it.

The fans who stayed up late to watch the game were as excited as if they had been pumped. In 2008, the development of communication was particularly rapid. In QQ groups, post bars, forums... there were a lot of news about Tang Zheng's start-up list for the Argentine Clasico.

Tang Zheng has performed well in the past three consecutive games representing River Plate. Chinese fans also learned about it through the Internet and "Sports Weekly".

That's why they are looking forward to the next Argentine national derby, but they only hope that Tang Zheng can come off the bench.

However, Tang Zheng is now starting the game, representing River Plate in an away game against Boca Juniors.

The Argentine national derby, the world's top ten derby ranks first!

When Tang Zheng followed Falcao, Sanchez and others into the stadium from the player tunnel, the Boca fans in the stands booed loudly, and the Boca fans around the top of the player tunnel directly greeted the River Plate players' families.

Tang Zheng stopped in his body's conditioned reflex, and turned his head to look at the stands.

Boca fans' attention was instantly focused on Tang Zheng. Many of them didn't know who Tang Zheng was, but this didn't stop them from venting. Anyway, the person wearing the River Plate jersey was their sworn enemy.

"What are you looking at? Believe it or not, I invite you to eat state-level bananas?"

"The bastard from the riverbed, kneel down with you Boca!"

"You bastards, go back to your chicken coop!"

"Hahaha, look...there is a person over there who is too scared to move!"

...

The scolding sound was very unpleasant, Tang Zheng clenched his fists.

Falcao turned back and pushed Tang Zheng's back, and said with a smile: "Don't pay attention to those pigs who only bark, let them squeal now, and make them cry when the game is over."

Sanchez was loaned to River Plate from Udinese in the spring league last year. Although it has not been a long time, he still knows the grievances and grievances between River Plate and Boca Juniors very well, so he said: "Yes, let them be proud first, Winning the game is king."

"Hurry up, hurry up! Warm up, warm up!"

At this moment, the fitness coach Enzo clapped his palms vigorously and signaled the players to gather and warm up.

Poncio looked at Tang Zheng while jogging: "Do you know why every time you are in an away game, you will be booed by the fans of the home team?"

"I don't know." Tang Zheng shook his head.

"That's because they are afraid of losing to us." Poncio turned his head and glanced at the Boca fans in the stands, and concluded: "Think about it, if they are not afraid that their home team will lose to us, why would they create psychology for us?" Obstacles? Why do they hinder our warm-up and competition? Isn’t it because we are afraid of losing?”

Tang Zheng thought for a while, what Poncio said made sense, only when he was afraid would he violently resist.
