Chapter 352: High school forwards and crosses are more compatible
Quaresma never thought that his goal would be robbed by others!
From his position, the ball flew in an arc that was enough to ensure that it was finally spun into the goal, and there was a high probability that the Iranian goalkeeper would not touch the ball.
In other words, if there is no accident just now, then he will get a goal steadily.
But things are often unexpected, and when the ball is about to fly into the Iranian goal, Pauletta suddenly kills it, heads the ball into the goal, and puts the ball into the goal!
Pauletta has scored!
My goal is gone!
What is this?
Quaresma couldn't laugh or cry!
He doesn't think that Pauletta is deliberately trying to steal his own goals, although he and Pauletta have had a surprisingly many misunderstandings recently, but it was all an accident, there is no hatred between the two, and there is no confrontation mentality like "I see that you are unhappy and will you".
Maybe Pauletta is just a kind of instinct of the striker, as long as the ball doesn't hit the goal, then get the ball in at all costs!
Fair and reasonable!
But the problem is, even if he didn't go to the top of the ball, the goal would have gone in, so, essentially, he still snatched Quaresma's goal!
So, looking at Pauletta who rushed towards him, Quaresma didn't know whether he should be happy about his team's goal or sad that his goal was robbed.
Pauletta is so excited that she is about to explode right now!
It's finally broken!
In the last game against the weak Angola team, Pauleta fought until the end of the game, almost fought until he vomited, and did not get a goal.
As a striker, scoring goals is his ultimate responsibility, and without a goal, he doesn't even fart loudly!
Now, I've finally scored!
Excitedly rushing towards Quaresma, Pauleta will not forget to thank Quaresma for the assist!
Yes, he didn't realize that Quaresma was shooting, he thought Quaresma was giving him a pass assist!
"Thank you so much, Ricardo!" Pauletta was so excited that she was almost incoherent.
"When the time is right, I will definitely treat you to a big meal and thank you for your assist!" Pauletta was about to cry, "You don't know how long I waited for this goal!" ”
Quaresma felt that his expression must be more ugly than crying, but he smiled bitterly, it was really uncomfortable!
"No thanks, your goals were earned by your hard work, be calm and you will score sooner or later, won't you?"
Can't help rubbing Pauletta's hair, Quaresma still can't hit Pauletta.
Forget it, let's think it's an assist for you!
Teammates rushed over to celebrate together, and no matter who scored the goal, Portugal were ahead, which was more important than anything else.
Another perfect start!
Not long after the start of the game, Portugal scored and took complete control of the game in their own hands, and such a domineering style of play simply did not give their opponents any chance.
The Portuguese fans in the stands sang and danced, extremely excited, even though there were even more Iranian fans watching the game today than Portuguese fans, but at this time, these Arabs still couldn't make any sound, they could only watch them celebrate?
The fans in front of the TV couldn't help but cheer for Portugal's goal, there is no way they can't dislike such a Portugal team.
Of course, when the broadcast screen showed a slow-motion replay of the entire goal, everyone couldn't help laughing again when they looked at Quaresma's crying and laughing expression!
They could see that Quaresma had no intention of crossing, and directly kicked the goal, and looked at the strong rotation direction of the ball, which was towards the goal.
Seeing that Quaresma was about to add a goal to himself, but was unexpectedly snatched away by Pauletta who suddenly came out, at that moment, Quaresma's expression was wonderful!
And Pauletta didn't realize this yet, screaming and rushing to Quaresma to celebrate the goal together, thanking him for his assist, you can imagine how hard Quaresma was!
Fortunately, Pauletta was in a good position when he grabbed the point, otherwise there was a danger of offside, didn't you see that the Iranian fans were constantly looking for the referee to protest!
But either way, Portugal have scored, and the game seems to have lost its suspense!
After the celebration, the Portuguese players returned to their own half and Iran were ready to kick off again.
Ronaldo kept wincing at Quaresma on the other side, as if complaining about why Quaresma didn't give him an assist.
Don't you have another dog?
Quaresma is helpless, how did this goal go in, can't you see it?
If you have the ability, you can grab it too!
Anyway, according to the position, you are better than Pauletta, why didn't you grab the goal?
Obviously, your goal is nowhere near as strong as Pauletta's, otherwise you're guaranteed to be more advanced than anyone else.
Ignoring Ronaldo's complaints, Quaresma still focused on the game, it was not he who scored just now, and Iran, which was behind the score next, must press out a wave, so he still took the opportunity to catch a wave of counterattacks.
After the game restarted, Iran did press up, maybe unwilling to lose like this, or simply wanted to score a goal, relying on good impact, Iran hit the ball in front of the Portuguese penalty area in a row.
It's just that, don't look at Iran's appearance, but the handling of technical details is often the key to determining the game, and at this point, it is obvious that Iran is not mature enough.
Often in the last pass, either the striker is not found, or it is destroyed by Portugal, and more often, Iran can only play the attack into the Portuguese penalty area through crosses.
The attack lasted for a few minutes and was thwarted before Portugal was pushed out as a threat area before it could be threatened.
On the other hand, Portugal's rapid attack is very deadly, with Deco in key positions to transition between attack and defense, Quaresma and others can focus more on the fast attack, that is their space to play.
In the 17th minute, Ronaldo broke through on the right side and went straight to the ribs, Pauletta took the ball back to Figo, who was inserted to answer, but unfortunately the Portuguese captain's shot was slightly off the post, unfortunately he was unable to score.
In the 20th minute, Figo sent a through ball in the middle, and Pauleta got the ball first, but at the moment of the final shot, it was destroyed by the Iranian defender and lost the opportunity to score a brace.
Next, Figo's corner kick was cleared out of the penalty area by the Iranian defenders for the first time, but Deco, who was ambushed outside the penalty area, shot directly with his feet, almost blasting the Iranian goal away......
In just a few minutes, it was as if there was a war in front of the Iranian goal, and their goal was almost destroyed!
However, the haze of war was far from over, and two minutes later, Quaresma's surprise attack came!
After receiving Figo's pass on the left side, Quaresma directly shook his center of gravity to get rid of the first defender, and then knocked the ball to Figo horizontally and immediately started to sprint, getting rid of the second defender at the same time, Figo's return ball also arrived, and the two cleared the obstacle in front of them through a perfect wall-hitting cooperation!
Facing the opponent's back, Quaresma made a quick bicycle movement from the left side, without giving the opponent a chance to destroy, even if the opponent's outstretched foot tripped him, but it did not affect his continued advance.
At this time, Quaresma began to go to the middle, and after the defensive energy in the Iranian penalty area was restrained by Pauletta and Ronaldo on the other side, Quaresma was like no one, and shot directly at a small angle, and once again blasted open the Iranian gate!
2:0
Scored!
Quaresma was so excited that he wanted to take off his shirt to celebrate, and then his fourth World Cup goal, this time no one grabbed it again!
His teammates flocked to him, once again surrounding him in the middle, and his excitement was no more calm than Quaresma!
Amid the cheers of the fans, only the expressions of the Iranian players remained.
The trajectory was almost the same as in the first game, and Portugal did not suffer a bit of decent resistance, as if they were training at a training base, and there was no confrontation at all.
This goal almost announced that Iran would be eliminated from the tournament and go home early!
Quaresma broke away from his teammates and ran to the midfield, continuing to celebrate while looking at Iranian coach Ivankovic with unbridled eyes, with a banter in his eyes that even the fans could clearly feel.
Iran is so strong!
It's so strong that it's already two goals behind!
It's so strong that you have to go home early!
It's terrifyingly strong!
Ivankovic looked at such a provocative Quaresma and almost pumped it out in one gulp!
It's so infuriating!
And so humiliating?
You think I can't see the meaning of your eyes?
Even contempt and ridicule, as if your eyes can speak, why don't you want to be an actor?
But even if Ivankovic is angry, there is no way to find trouble with Quaresma, you can't accuse Quaresma of his crimes because of one look, right?
Besides, Iran is now being beaten like this, what kind of face does he have to trouble with Quaresma!
If he had been given another chance, he probably wouldn't have said that at the pre-match press conference, it would be just uncomfortable for himself!
Looking at the dejected players on the field, and then looking at the Portuguese players who were almost about to start celebrating the victory, Ivankovic felt that this game could probably be abandoned!
Just like Angola's simple goal, losing a few fewer or chasing a goal is already considered a success.
......
The game has been played to this extent, and even the fans can see that Iran's return home is inevitable.
Then, there is not much suspense left in the game, how many goals can Portugal score, how many goals can Quaresma can score, etc., these are already more interesting than the game itself.
With Iran's current state of resistance, I'm afraid it really can't stop Quaresma's impact, just like just now, the wild horses are almost like no one on the left, rushing left and right, Iran knows what Quaresma is going to do, but it just can't stop it!
What to do?
Now that Quaresma has scored 4 goals, can this game really make Quaresma have enough capital to win the World Cup Golden Boot?
It's scary to think about!
Never before in the history of the World Cup has a player been able to wear the Golden Boot with a goal in two games!
Quaresma is going against the sky!
I can't help but sigh that if Portugal is divided into a group with a slightly stronger average strength, maybe Quaresma will not have such a chance to kill the Quartet, and it is impossible to win the top scorer before the group stage is finished, which seems to be more in line with everyone's expectations for the World Cup Golden Boot.
But now, Quaresma is almost gone on the road to the Golden Boot, and he is almost at the finish line!
Do you want to be so unreasonable?
Angola and Iran are both hard-working from their respective continents, and even if they are not world-class teams, they can be regarded as the elite of their respective continents!
But these two teams have become the target of scoring goals in front of Quaresma, and it's a tragedy to think about!
Many people feel that if they don't find a way to restrict Quaresma, then the World Cup Golden Boot will really become an award specially set for Quaresma, and others can't take it away at all!
But how can you restrain Quaresma?
Is there a special rule that Quaresma can't score more than two goals in a game, and if it does, it doesn't count?
Or was it specifically restricting Quaresma and not allowing him to use the near-foul outside instep?
If it's that high, what credibility does football have in particular!
So, that's all!
The current Guardesma has made all opponents who want to compete for the World Cup Golden Boot can't help but be afraid.
I can't fight it!
......
Iran didn't press on it anymore, and it couldn't score goals when it pressed up, and it had to be counterattacked by Portugal, rather than conceding more goals, it was better to defend well first, and have the opportunity to steal another wave, which seems to be the most in line with the current situation!
Under the organization of Deco, the Portuguese midfielder began to exert his strength, and gradually advanced the ball to the outside of the Iranian penalty area through skillful passing, and further on, it was the core area of Iran's heavy guarding!
Quaresma is also involved in passing on the left flank, but he doesn't have many chances at the moment, with Iran's defensive formation remaining intact and dense, and if Quaresma rushes forward, he is likely to be caught inside.
Quaresma is a very efficient person, if he is not sure, he will not act rashly, maybe lose a possibility, but more things that lose the ball and cause problems for his teammates at the back, if you can, don't do it!
Therefore, seeing that the chances were not good, Quaresma did not act rashly.
There is no rush down the middle, but Quaresma can still threaten by sending the ball into the box with crosses, and even if Pauletta is not a strong striker, he can get a lot of good chances with his high-quality crosses!
If it weren't for Pauleta's bad luck and several headers that created a threat but didn't find the back of the net, I'm afraid Quaresma would have scored a hat-trick of assists!
Seeing that Quaresma's cross was in such good form today, and Iran began to defend intensively again, Scolari on the sidelines wanted to replace Nuno Gomez on the field.
High school striker and rainy day.... It's better with a cross!
