Chapter 69: Portugal Makes Evil

A few happy and a few sad, this World Cup, many strong teams have not been able to play the style of a strong team, such as Germany is very desperate, in the case of losing in the first round, they beat Sweden 2:1 in the second round, leaving a glimmer of hope. It was a heart-wrenching battle of German Germanic spirit, with Germany coming out of the tournament after being down from a penalty down before beating Sweden in stoppage time with a last-ditch victory.

The most disappointed team is, of course, Argentina, the pre-match favorite, was forced to draw by Iceland in the last round, and was even more miserable by Croatia in this round and rubbed 3 goals! There was no discipline and organization in this game, Messi barely won the ball in the whole game, and it is no wonder that Maradona and Batistuta jumped out to bombard Argentina and Messi......

Then the third round will begin, and there is no suspense in Group A, it depends on what the trend of pig B is.

The preparation of the Chinese team was very relaxed, and every training session was open to the public without any reservations, but Krauchen did not let the players be interviewed by the outside world, and although the reporters were able to only move around outside the training ground, the players ignored the reporters without authorization.

But even so, the sharp-eyed reporter found a problem.

Several players have not been in training lately. They are Zheng Zhi, Feng Renliang and Dong Fangzhuo.

"Why hasn't Dong been training these days?"

The reporter of the newspaper "As" was puzzled. I exchanged ideas with another fellow reporter from the newspaper Marca.

"It's not scientific."

"There's definitely a problem."

"Zheng Zhi is a red card and suspended for one game, but Feng Renliang and Dong Fangzhuo? Is this sending a signal? They won't start at all? ”

"Yes, your analysis is correct, it looks like the German Krauchen has already made a decision, they are not going to start the three of them at all, they are going to play with a substitute lineup. This message is already obvious. ”

"Ah, damn it, Spain is really finished."

They immediately covered the guessed news.

But with the exception of the Spaniards, people from all over the world felt that it was not a problem at all.

"Do the Spaniards still want to qualify?"

"What are they thinking?"

"They're going to be eliminated."

"Only they are still fantasizing that if I were the head of the Spanish Football Federation, I would have booked a ticket home on the day of the game."

"Can pie still fall from the sky?"

……

※※※※

"Man,"

"You're on a rotation?"

Ronaldo called Dong Fangzhuo to ask.

"Ah, how do you know?" Dong Fangzhuo smiled.

"That's what the media said, you haven't been involved in joint training recently."

"If nothing else, I should be a substitute."

"Oh, I see."

Ronaldo is very satisfied, Dong Fangzhuo does not play, doesn't this mean that it is a tacit understanding.

"What about you?"

"I ...... Not necessarily...... I should have been on the bench as well. Ronaldo on the other end of the phone blinked and showed a sly smile.

China is stable, but Portugal is not, Portugal still has ideas. China wants to make sure Dong Fangzhuo gets plenty of rest and then has a healthy side to wait for the knockout rounds. However, Portugal are still aiming for the top spot in the group.

Maybe the opponent in the bottom half will be easier to deal with.

So......

It was only after the conclusion of the Group A match that day that Portugal coach Santos announced his starting line-up.

Looking at the starting lineup, Chinese fans were stunned.

"Nima,"

"Where's the tacit ball?"

"What does it mean to go to Cristiano Ronaldo? And it's still a proper main lineup, no one is missing. ”

"Hey, that's too much, are they trying to compete for the top spot in the group?"

"Dong Fangzhuo is a substitute, he didn't start, but Ronaldo started."

……

Chinese fans feel that they are being put on a role by Portugal, but no one can say anything about this kind of thing, Crowchen didn't plan to let Dong Fangzhuo start, as for what players Portugal plays, I don't care.

"Bad biang," Dong Fangzhuo also smiled.

"Isn't it over just saying that the starters?"

Dong Fangzhuo is not angry, who is not playing, according to this year's situation, it seems that the team is playing is almost the same, and there is no difference in which half of the team is in which district.

Crouchen was about to give up the game. Not only him, Dong Fangzhuo, can be rotated, all of them are rotated.

The first player was the Chinese second team, and it was obvious that they had given up.

Seeing the full bench lineup of the Chinese team, Portuguese fans are relieved, and it is no surprise that they should be able to win the Chinese team and win the first place in the group.

Portugal launched an onslaught in the opening game to try to take the lead as soon as possible. However, they still underestimated the Chinese second team.

Although the offensive ability of the second team is very average, the defensive level is not much worse than that of the first team. Although Cristiano Ronaldo was on the field, Portugal did not score in the first half.

Entering the second half with a score of 0:0, Portugal continued to attack, but the more impatient the more unable to score, Ronaldo missed two chances in succession.

"Haha,"

"Silly,"

"It's a draw now?"

At the critical moment, it was VAR technology that helped Portugal, and in the 73rd minute, the referee awarded Liu Yang for pulling down Guedes in the penalty area and giving Portugal a penalty.

Cristiano Ronaldo finally scored.

In the end, with this goal, Portugal defeated the Chinese team 1:0, successfully won the first place in Group B, and reached the bottom half......
