There was another round of spinning, and when Levi opened his eyes again, he was already in a completely new environment.

Compared to the last time he saw a group of familiar compatriots when he arrived, the environment this time was much stranger. Anyway, Li Wei didn't see any Chinese at first sight.

The stadium in front of us is not big, perhaps not even comparable to Elland Road in terms of scale. There are only four stands, and the corners are not used like many large stadiums.

Therefore, although the stadium is full now, a rough calculation is that there are probably only 20,000 people at most.

Levi can be considered a well-informed old fan, but this place cannot match the famous stadiums in his memory.

It seems that in this game, I may not have the advantage of foresight that I had in the last game.

After watching the stadium, then watch the people.

The players in front of Levi are all wearing blue and white jerseys, which is easy to recognize. Apart from Argentina, there is probably no other player in the world.

But he was also unable to match the Argentinian players in front of him with the Pampas Eagles in his memory. Who were these people? He felt like he could hardly recognize any of them!

Speaking of Levi's previous life, he was half an Argentinian fan. Even in the era of Maradona and even Kempes, he felt that he would not be completely unfamiliar with them like he is now.

After looking around, Levi only felt that No. 8 and No. 17 looked slightly familiar, but he couldn't remember them. He simply gave up and prepared to look at his teammates again.

But just when he was about to look away, he saw a little man hiding in the crowd who looked inconspicuous due to his height!

It’s actually him?!!!

Even though that face was still very immature, Levi still recognized it at a glance! No, it should be said that none of Levi's fans at that time could not recognize him!

One of the greatest twins, a legend who is destined to stand shoulder to shoulder with football kings in the future - Lionel Messi!

This discovery reminded Levi of who No. 17 and No. 8 were. The long-haired No. 17 was the "Redondo successor" who later joined Real Madrid - Fernando Gago!

As for No. 8, who also has blond hair, it is really difficult for Levi to connect him with the later bald defender Zabaleta, but looking at that face, it is obviously a contribution to Manchester City!

However, even if he recognized these three people, he still couldn't confirm which game it was. After all, in his memory, he had never seen these three people playing together at this age.

It seems that we still need to see our teammates again.

Levi then turned his gaze to his side.

Ouch!

He was startled, brother, who are you?

There was actually a streak of black on his side!

Levi thinks he is not face-blind, but he is really powerless when it comes to black players. After all, they are all so black that it is really difficult to identify them!

Of course, except for those who look like African Liu Dehua and Rong Zuer.

It's a pity that no such face-bumping monster was found among the teammates this time.

The white teeth exposed by these gangsters were so dazzling that as far as Li Wei could see, everything was pitch black and white, and it really made him feel dizzy.

I looked around and didn't see anyone I knew, but the green jerseys they were wearing were easy to identify.

That is obviously exclusive to "African Eagle" Nigeria.

Nigeria vs. Argentina?

Levi's brain was working extremely fast.

Argentina and Nigeria are separated by an ocean and can be said to be incomparable geographically, but they have a wonderful fate in the world of football.

In 1994, 2002, 2010, 2014, and 2018, the two teams were actually in the same group in the five World Cups. This is also extremely rare in the history of the World Cup. In the Olympics, the two teams also had a lot of disputes.

Nigeria defeated Argentina in the final of the 1996 Olympic Games and won the championship. In the 2008 Olympic Games, the Argentinians took revenge in the final.

In the past thirty years, Nigeria and Argentina can almost be said to be the two teams that have played against each other the most in countries from different continents, and they have always played in extremely important competitions.

So, which one is this one?

The years 1994, 1996, and 2002 were the first to be eliminated. Messi was still a baby at that time. It is also unlikely to happen in 10, 14, and 18 years. Messi, Gago, and Zabaleta were not so young at that time.

Astringent, especially Zabaleta’s hair, can’t be kept that long!

Moreover, it is impossible for Levi to recognize only three of the players from those three seasons.

Could it be the 2008 Olympics?

No, no, the 2008 Olympics were held in Beijing. The Workers' Stadium where the finals were held, how could he, Li Wei, not recognize it?

What kind of game is it?

※※※※※※

"Mikel, what the hell are you thinking about? Go back to your place!"

Just as Levi was thinking hard, a roar suddenly came from the coaching bench on the sidelines.

Only then did he realize that his teammates had scattered to his position, and he was the only one who was still standing there stupidly.

He called me "Mikel"?

Mikel, Mi...could it be Chelsea's later midfielder and return pass king - John Obi Mikel?

Yes!

Li Wei suddenly had a flash of inspiration, this is the 2005 World Youth Championship finals in the Netherlands!

Although Mikel has played many games against Argentina on behalf of Nigeria, this one is definitely the one he regrets most.

Mikel, who performed extremely well throughout the tournament, was defeated by Argentina, led by Messi, in the final. He eventually fell behind the opponent and won the Silver Ball of the tournament. After that, he moved to Chelsea, but was transformed into a midfielder by Mourinho.

Engineers no longer have the aura of the "African Zidane".

Messi, on the other hand, won both the Golden Ball and the Golden Boot, and has since embarked on the road to becoming the best player in Barcelona.

After a game, the two people who were evenly matched at this time will have completely different fates in the future.

Fortunately, the official language of Nigeria is English! Otherwise, he really doesn’t know if he would be able to recognize this game.

Levi thought somewhat happily.

"Mikel, if you don't fucking move, labor and management will replace you immediately!" A frustrated roar came from my ears.

Levi hurriedly ran to the center circle angrily. Mikel was the midfielder, so he should be right here.

Moreover, there is Mikel's original consciousness reminding him.

※※※※※※

Taking advantage of the gap before kickoff, Levi began to search hard for his memories.

But after thinking about it carefully, he really has never watched this game...

Although Levi prides himself on knowing football, the World Youth Championship is indeed his blind spot, and I am afraid it is also the blind spot of many senior fans.

After all, even if the World Youth Championship is the top youth competition, it is still a youth competition in the final analysis. When counting the achievements of a certain star, the results of the youth competition are usually not included, of course, except for Romario.<

/p>

Even if the so-called fans usually fight each other, few people use the honor of the World Youth Championship to talk about it, because it is really not convincing.

And Li Wei was able to know about this game because of Messi and the Chinese team.

On the one hand, this is the famous tournament for the club champion. On the other hand, the 1985 generation of Chinese football performed extremely well in this World Youth Championship. They defeated Turkey, Ukraine, and Panama in the group stage, winning three games in three games.

In the quarter-finals, they lost 2-3 to Germany, and a golden generation such as Chen Tao, Feng Xiaoting, Zhou Haibing, Zhao Xuri, Dong Fangzhuo, and Gao Lin emerged.

Especially Chen Tao, who fully demonstrated the style of the world's top attacking midfielder of his age group, was selected into the best team of the tournament. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, the Serie A trip was not possible, and in the end he was lost to everyone.

In fact, until the year before Li Wei traveled through time, the mainstay of the Chinese national team was still this group of people.

And Li Wei's knowledge of the World Youth Championship is limited to this World Youth Championship and the 2001 World Youth Championship where Qu Bo shined. These two events were in which the Chinese team participated and performed well.

Nothing else is known.

Of course, even in this tournament, Levi only watched four games of the Chinese team. For this final, he also knew that the final score was Argentina's 2-1 victory over Nigeria.

Oh, by the way, he also knew that Messi scored the two penalty kicks, and the order of scoring should be that Argentina scored first, Nigeria equalized, and Messi scored the final goal.

This is all the information he knows about this game.

The information is very limited, but it is better than nothing.

From this bit of information, Li Wei has already deduced a rough plan.

With his current awareness and experience, it is obviously impossible to compare with Mikel, who won the Silver Ball Award at this World Youth Championship. So, without knowing the details of this game, relying on his own ideas like last time

It is obviously not advisable to act in this way.

Specifically, in order to ensure that Nigeria could still score that goal, after Messi's first goal, he was prepared to completely follow Mikel's consciousness. And before Messi's first goal and

After Nigeria scores a goal, it acts according to its own ideas.

This may be a bit convoluted. To put it another way, if the process of this game is divided into three parts, that is, before Argentina's first goal, after Argentina's first goal, before Nigeria's goal, and three parts after Nigeria's goal.

part, then in Levi's plan, the middle part is to copy Mikel's actions, and the first and last parts are the time for Levi to express himself freely.

Of course, when it comes to free play, it actually only refers to the offensive end.

After all, he still has room for trial and error on the offensive end, but on defense, he is not sure to be better than Mikel.
