In the friendly match between Riyadh Victory and Miami International that ended in the morning, although the drama of Ronaldo vs Messi, which everyone longed to see, was not staged, the score of the victory 6-0 swept the international was still very unexpected. You know, it's a friendly match; You know, this is a key battle for Miami's pre-season preparations, and they are about to start competing in the new season, how can they realize the team's dream of competing for the championship in such a state?
If it's just a loss in a game, it doesn't matter, after all, everyone has highs and lows. But this is already Miami's 12th consecutive winless game, counting the main match, cup match, and friendly match, they only got 2 draws and 10 losses, which team is simply unreasonable. Their last win was on 21 September last year, in a 4-0 win over Toronto.
Although, Miami can attribute the game problems to Messi's almost no appearance (he only came on as a substitute in the 83rd minute) and the nature of the friendly match; However, the combination of Suarez and Campazo, Alba, Busquets, and Grigley are basically half of their main lineup, and their value is also approaching the level of 30 million. After the game, angry fans vented their frustration on social media, which was the exact opposite of their enthusiasm when Messi joined the team. Winning or losing, being able to accept it, this is the cruelty of competitive sports.
In fact, Riyadh Victory was not completely "faceless" in the game, Miami still completed 12 shots on goal, and the possession rate was close to the level of 5-5. It's just that their ability to create opportunities and seize opportunities is really poor, which is the key to their ability not to wrestle with Riyadh. Suarez and Campazzo in the midfield retreated frequently, but it didn't work too well, their passers did not exist, the midfielders basically did not contribute any in the transition between attack and defense, and only relied on a few experiments by Busquets, which really did not meet the actual needs at all, this is the gap between them and Riyadh.
Riyadh, on the other hand, with the help of players such as Talisca, Otavio and Brozovic, who have played in Europe and the United States, their operation is very smooth and smooth, which is an advantage that Miami does not have, and it is also very good to help the team create a lot of opportunities on the offensive end. Just look at one of the points to know the difference between the two teams, Riyadh has most of the passing in the middle of the forward, and the defender can combine with the center; Most of Miami's central passes are handled in parallel, either to the wing-backs or to play back, which is worthless.
In this mode comparison, Riyadh came up and controlled the direction of the game very well, and the two teams really did not seem to be equal in comparison. Goals from Otavio, Talisca and Aymeric Laporte showed the style and speed of European football, but Miami were still struggling to adapt to the game, but they were already 3-0 behind.
You know, the 0-6 blow to Miami is not a small one, it is a complete failure for them, and it may be a "thinking" inspiration for Messi. For the Argentine legend, his green career is really running out, and if Miami is only at this level, then it is indeed a missed opportunity and a waste of time.
