Véron is a penalty corner stone for Heinze scored the only goal

Yesterday afternoon, while many team (and coach Maradona) discharge the camp relaxing Juan Sebastian Véron busy hospital to check the level of injury to his calf. If "little witch" can not compete in the match against South Korea, Maradona will be facing real problems.
In the game opener against Nigeria, Véron is a penalty corner stone for Heinze scored the only goal. He must leave the field in 74 minutes, Maxi Rodriguez gave way to corn because of pain in his right foot. After the match, Véron has assured fans that the injury is not completely disturbing and he could play in the match against South Korea. But clearly, for the most obvious conclusions of health requires clear decisions from the medical team.

Does not clearly want to keep all or not, but a spokesman for Argentina's Andres Ventura is not sure about the ability to play La Brujita (Small Witch - Véron nickname). "Trauma of Sebastian is still being reviewed every day," Ventura fly open. But team doctor, said Donato Villani, they seem more prudent to be careful Véron recommended for the exercises, in order to avoid injury worse.

In the Argentina game, Véron is considered key to decrypt Messi. In the opening match, Messi is the player with the most aggressive series of ball, to create points, Véron is also launching 21 passes, most Argentine side (the second person is Messi - 11). Requiring players to replace players Véron his appearance is impossible. Aging 35-year-old general low level Mascherano can play but he can release toxic and long passing to launch attacks.

* Maxi, or Bolatti Pastore?

According to Ventura, then in injury cases Véron, Maxi Rodriguez will be derived from the first game against South Korea. But of course that's just speculation, based on what happened in the opening match, but the final decision will belong to Maradona. In the 16th minute before Nigeria, Maxi stone to offset the Argentine midfield with a 4-3-2-1 in the chart as rock head Mascherano, Jonas also served on the rocks at left midfield instead of Di Maria played no effect Results.

But it is time to protect billions of Argentina before Nigeria, and Japan will need a different approach. Compared Véron, Maxi player can attack more orientation. If you use this midfielders, Argentina is likely to play soccer with the lowest Mascherano, Maxi and also Di Maria (or Jonas) ran high on both flanks. This map can have many plans to attack more, and flexibility is well worth two minutes to consider, especially when they are confronted with an opponent playing very organized as South Korea.

Bolatti If selected, he would have granted the same central midfielder Mascherano. Fiorentina midfielder to 1m90 high, and relatively good shot away, so it may be a solution when the stalemate in the team reach his goal. But the fact is since the golden goal in the net in Uruguay 2010 World Cup qualifying, are not important Bolatti use. He appeared in just minutes ... 90 +2 in a friendly match with Germany, when the score was an article. So very hard to believe Maradona will use Bolatti beginning.

If Maradona is a sufficient courage, he will choose to replace Javier Pastore Véron. Palermo's young talent is a memorable season in Serie A, having made his debut in Canada (5-0 win), he also played a very mature side of his elders. But playing the World Cup clearly still so new and the possibility he was completely overwhelmed as possible.
