Chapter 568: Losing the Initiative

Puyol's yellow card appeared to be a trigger and the action of both sides began to turn rough.

First, Rico got a yellow card for a retaliatory knockout after being cut off by Capdevilla, and then Gilberto. Silva is booked for a tackle on Andres Iniesta from behind.

Soon, when Ricardo broke through with the ball, Ramos made a vicious tackle and received another yellow card.

However, this time Ricardo did not go down to receive treatment, Ramos's actions seemed to be fierce, but in fact, he still left a little measure, somewhat still a little teammate, and did not do too much, and did not go directly to Licardo's ankle when he got down.

Baptista also showed the "beast" style, jumping up and kicking Xavi in a head-to-head scrum. Alonso's chest, received a yellow card. It was also Webb's mercy, otherwise it would have been a move that could have given a red card.

A large number of fouls, so that both sides could not organize the attack fluently. Brazil used fouls to interrupt Spain's rhythm of possession, and Spain used fouls to hinder Brazil's counter-attack.

"After 20 minutes of good play, the next game is the normal final," the commentator said with a smile, "both sides are thinking, I can play uncomfortable, but you don't want to play comfortably." โ€

"But overall, it was Brazil who suffered a little bit and Spain were still very fluid in possession, and they squeezed Brazil's space through possession. It's been a long time since I've seen Brazil play so badly, and it should be since the '98 World Cup final. โ€

"So is the scene of the '98 World Cup final going to be repeated? It was supposed to be a game in which Ronaldo ascended to the throne, but Brazil were completely suppressed and Zinedine Zidane was achieved. In the end, Ronaldo's title was postponed for 4 years, and he only sat on the throne in 2002. โ€

This year, on the other hand, is expected by many to be the year of Ricardo's ascension to the throne, if Brazil succeeds in winning the championship. But if the Brazilian team collapses here, Ricardo's title will be delayed for at least four years. โ€

"At the moment, it seems that Brazil's high pressing is not actually working well, but rather leaving their backline a little empty. Dunga might as well let Brazil retreat and wait for an opportunity to counterattack. โ€

'On the Spanish side, Ramos and Sergio Busquets were trapped by Ricardo and Kaka, which made their possession a little bit less different. In previous games, Ramos' insertion of assists has been a great weapon for Spain. But today, this weapon is restrained. โ€

The commentator said a lot of things, on the one hand, to let those fans who don't know much about the ball understand the situation on the field, the star players of both sides, and on the other hand, to pass the boring time.

Is he still explaining as usual? Then it becomes "Iniesta takes the ball, passes to Xavi, Xavi passes to Xavi. Alonso, Xavi Alonso passes to Iniesta again, Iniesta transfers to Xavi, Xavi splits sides, Pedro doesn't have a chance, passes back to Xavi, Xavi passes to Xavi again. Alonso, take it slowly, give the ball to Iniesta, Iniesta passes, Villa, there is no chance, and then play back to Xavi...... "Until they finally form a shot or Brazil finally make a tackle, or foul.

Yes, commenting on the Spanish game is so boring.

"As far as the first half kicks in, Spain still have a huge advantage on the ball, with 62 per cent of the time they have possessed the ball, compared to a pitiful 38 per cent for Brazil, the lowest possession rate of any game in this World Cup. So far, both sides have had three shots on goal and both pose a certain threat. Spain are likely to break down Brazil's defence in their next pass, and Brazil are likely to score on the next counter-attack, with neither player daring to be careless. โ€

Spain continued to possess the ball, Baptista made a successful steal, Bigfoot found Ricardo, Ramos headed the ball down. Pique gets the ball, Pique ...... Long pass! It's rare to see footage like this in this game. โ€

"Hey, Lucio leaked! Opportunity in Spain! Villa get the ball! He's in the box and he's ready to shoot! He passes the ball to the back post, Pedro! Goallllllllll๏ผ In the 37th minute of the game, Spain took the lead in breaking the deadlock on the field! It was a mistake by Brazil, and Lucio's rise to the top gave Spain a golden chance, which Spain naturally laughed at. After attracting two defenders, Villa passed the ball to the back post and the unmarked Pedro pushed the ball home! It was his first goal of the tournament and he was very excited! โ€

"In the final, whoever scores first takes the lead! In the history of the World Cup, there are very few teams that have scored first to be reversed! In a tournament like this, everyone played very solidly and focused on defense. The Brazilian team is in trouble right now, Ricardo and Ronaldo are not getting enough support, they have to find a way to change the situation on the field! โ€

'Spain can have the ball to their heart's content, and with what they do best, they can spend the rest of the game. It's no joke, if it weren't for the fact that the game was only 90 minutes, I doubt they would have been able to keep the ball for five hours straight. โ€

Ricardo's face was not very good. Because of tiredness, because of the pain in the calf, because Spain is ahead. In football, the worst thing you would dread is Spain and Chelsea taking the lead.

Possession after Spain is leading can be maddening, and Chelsea's defence after taking the lead can make people sigh in despair.

However, Brazil must reverse.

In this World Cup, Ricardo does not accept defeat as a result.

After the restart, he spared no effort and launched a more frantic press, but the effect was not very good.

Because most of the players have a bit of a serious physical exertion, they are no longer able to maintain a complete pressing formation, and there will always be omissions and let go of the opponent's exit point.

And Spain seems to be able to control the ball as long as they have a ball spot.

If the Brazilian team did not press in front of the game after the opening and retreated across the board, the score may not be the same as it is now.

But at this time, it is useless to regret it, and it is useless to complain about it.

You can only move forward. Even if you are sailing against the current, you have to work hard to move forward.

Ricardo was ruthless. Even if you are wearing a turtle shell, Lao Tzu will break this turtle shell!

In the 37th minute, Brazil won a corner. Gilberto. Silva played the ball to the periphery, Baptista cushioned it and the ball came to Ricardo. Ricardo has a sideways volley that bounces off the defender.

Spain counter-attacked, and after a quick pass, Pedro shot from the edge of the box and the ball went just wide.

Then Spain got into the rhythm of possession again.

The players of the Brazilian team ran in vain and were led by the nose by their opponents.

Be sure to score a goal right away!

It only takes one goal to score and the situation behind is completely different! Brazil will be able to take the initiative back into its own hands!
