7. A wild laugh
Spain broke the deadlock and the wonderful game was just getting started. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 InfoPortugal won't let the game end there.
This is the scene of the knockout round of the World Cup. Fight each other, set off fighting spirit, and fight until the last moment, when the result can be divided.
Spain have shown the hallmarks of their strikerless tactics, but have also exposed some flaws.
Although the Portuguese attacked fiercely, they had no obvious results. Ronaldo also did not show the ability of a super leader.
Lin: For Casillas, Torres, and Iniesta, they are all the last World Cups, but many people, who have not found Cristiano Ronaldo, are now 33-year-old veterans.
Everyone knows that the wear and tear of forwards is much more serious than that of defenders and goalkeepers, and the service life is much shorter.
In the history of football, there are legendary goalkeepers like Lev Yashin and iron-blooded defenders like Maldini, who are still active on the world stage at the age of 40.
But it's rare to see a super striker, and after the age of 35, he can still maintain a high level of competition.
Ronaldo and Messi, to varying degrees, have also weakened, and they are not as good as the state of the people and gods at their peak.
If, nothing else, this will be their last World Cup, they don't want to have any regrets.
They have to go all out and fight to stand on the battlefield at the end. But first they have to overcome the enemy in front of them.
Wang: When people appreciate the strikers' quick revenge and brilliant shots, they often ignore that they are playing with their lives.
Some players fell in a frantic run and ended their careers prematurely, which is quite regrettable.
Lin: Cristiano Ronaldo has won the Champions League at Manchester United and Real Madrid, but like Messi, he wants the World Cup title too much.
Ronaldo is stronger than in the previous two years, his leg strength is more sufficient, but his speed is not slow at all, which is also the biggest asset that he can still compete with Messi and others.
Wang: Nani dribbled past two players, but Spain's defensive formation remained the same, and Juan Mata stepped forward to interrupt his progress.
Nani wasn't the main attacker, his job was just to get the ball through midfield and make some cross-cutting combinations. He didn't want to be cut off by the Spaniards.
He played the ball quickly, the ball spun quickly, and came to the feet of Quaresma, a man with strong physique and good footwork, and he strode forward and struck inside from the left side of the box.
Lin: Quaresma is a player of the same era as Cristiano Ronaldo, and he is even two years older than Cristiano Ronaldo, but he has not shown his super talent either at club or in the national team.
This made his value not perfectly reflected, and in his career, only Inter Milan won three consecutive championships, which was his highlight moment.
Wang: At Euro 2016, when Cristiano Ronaldo fell, it was Quaresma who stepped up and withstood the pressure to defeat the host country France in the final. won the long-lost European Cup, which can be regarded as a regret for Ronaldo without a championship in the competition.
Lin: If Cristiano Ronaldo's breakthrough is a light and fancy step, then Quaresma's breakthrough is more leisurely.
He can control the rhythm of the whole court without hurrying or slowing, and some actions that are beyond common sense, he can do it easily.
The ball was at his feet, dripping and spinning, falling together, stirring people's nerves.
Wang: He's not very fast, his body is shaking slightly, his feet are constantly circling the ball, and Pique is not timid at all, and he doesn't retreat too much. Stay half a meter in front of him, ready to cut off the ball at his feet.
Lin: Quaresma is moving left and right, trying to break through, but Pique is one of the most famous defenders in La Liga and even in Europe, known for his tight defence, especially man-to-man tactics.
Pique's defensive awareness and excellence, whether it is a single defense or a help defense, can well connect the team and form a complete chain.
In the Spanish team, he is the backbone of the defense behind Sergio Ramos.
But Quaresma's technique at his feet is simply unexpected.
He took advantage of a big jump in a gymnastics move to turn and take off, deftly avoiding Pique's pursuit, and in the air, with a tap of his left knee, smashed the ball to the ground and bounced forward.
Wang: This movement seems simple, but without long-term training, it is difficult to use it so smoothly and naturally.
The ball rebounded with great force, and with a snort, it went over everyone's heads and came to 10 meters in front of the goal.
Lin: The ball flew towards a scuffling group, Cristiano Ronaldo was surrounded by Ramos, David Silva and Juan Mata, and Gomez was rushing to support him outside the circle.
Cristiano Ronaldo fought hard, and no matter who stood in front of him, he desperately stood up and used his head to meet the football.
Wang: He threw his head at the ball, but it was intercepted by a powerful force.
Ramos, a player with a lot of body and awareness, is reassuring no matter where he is.
With him, it's really a husband and wife. Coupled with the fact that there is still St. Cassie behind the goal, they can only be said to be slightly worse than Germany in terms of defense.
Lin: The ball rolled on the ground, and before Ronaldo could chase it out, Mata turned and dribbled the ball and kicked it forward.
Ronaldo's eyes implied a murderous aura, like a sword out of the sheath, this ball, he was still resolutely chosen to shoot in the middle of the three. This shows his determination.
It's not a matter of his ability, it's that he can't achieve it even if he faces too many strong enemies.
But he will not give up, he is a battle-hardened man, he is one of the few rulers of this era, he is a warrior who is getting braver and braver.
Wang: The ball is back at the feet of the Spanish team, and the Portuguese team is not to be outdone.
At the end of the first half, Spain temporarily took a 1-0 lead.
After a 10-minute break, we entered the second half of the game together.
Lin: It's exciting enough, but we have more prizes. Now, I'm going to present the first half of the awards.
Lin Yue said as he moved his mouse and clicked on a voting page.
This is a survey conducted before the game, and the question is: Who will score the first goal.
In the options below, there are a total of 8 players from both teams, namely Cristiano Ronaldo, Gomez, Quaresma, Pedro, Morata, David Silva, Andres Iniesta, and Ramos.
From the final voting results, it can be seen that Ronaldo, Gomez, and David Silva are among the top three.
And Pedro, who really scored the goal, was only ranked fifth, even behind Xiaobai.
Lin: In this survey, there are not many discerning fans, only 10.7% of the voters, but as the saying goes, the truth is in the hands of a few.
These more than 1,200 people will also have the opportunity to win the grand prize.
I'm going to select 50 lucky spectators from here and give each of you a World Cup jersey for Spain.
As soon as this statement came out, it attracted a round of applause, and this time, 50 places were given away at once, which was more than before, and the prizes were more attractive.
As the roulette wheel rolls, batches of lucky nicknames are frozen. 10 lucky spectators will be selected for each group.
After the selection of 5 groups, the system confirms and confirms the information with the member in a timely manner, including name, address, contact information and the model he is wearing, so as to send the prize to the winning audience.
At the same time, he also threw out the next guessing question: 90 minutes, who wins and who loses?
Of course, there are only three outcomes: a win, a loss, and a draw. But it's not so easy to judge.
Lin: At the start of the second half, Spain adopted a strategy of clearing the field in an attempt to conserve energy and defend instead of attacking.
But Portugal was not polite at all, pressed it in an all-round way, burst out with strong attack power, and kept pushing forward.
Wang: Pepe split the ball on the left side, Quaresma accelerated forward, passed the ball alone, broke through the dense defense like lightning, and rushed through the three lines of Cristiano Ronaldo and Moutinho.
Lin: Ramos is always in front of Ronaldo, he has always been the nemesis of the opponent's shoulders, not giving an inch, not giving an inch.
Quaresma's successive changes of direction finally allowed Pique to take a step out of the space of the moment, and he picked the ball into the air.
Wang: The ball actually flew to Ronaldo again, but Ramos defended so tightly, and last time, he decisively stopped Ronaldo's header, this time, can Ronaldo succeed?
Lin: It's two men fighting for the ball again, and Ramos takes a few steps, takes off into the air, and rushes towards the ball.
Ronaldo didn't fight him hard, but ran to the top right corner to play Moutinho. Moutinho half-crouched, his hands folded together, with all his strength, waiting for Ronaldo to fly on his hands, and with the help of the force, he rose a full two meters.
Wang: At this time, he was a meter above Ramos, who was about to touch the ball, but was kicked by Ronaldo in the air and fell from top to bottom with the force of a volley.
Lin: The ball was amazingly powerful, like a thunderbolt, the distance was short, the speed was fast, the angle was tricky, and with a snort, it flew under the left rib where it was difficult for St. Cassie to save.
Wang: Cassie immediately slid and stretched out his palm to pounce on the spinning ball. But it may be that Cassie is old, or it may be Ronaldo's goal, which is too weird.
The ball seemed to suddenly increase its flight distance, flying a few centimeters in front of his fingertips into the net.
Lin: Cristiano Ronaldo's goal seems to have gone through many drills, and now he has successfully hit the ball and saved the situation in an instant.
Just eight minutes into the second half, Cristiano Ronaldo equalised. The battle between the two sides is 1:1.
Ronaldo tore the jersey on his chest, looked up to the sky and let out a long howl, the sound shook the world, and vented his depression for a long time. (To be continued.) )
