13. The last warm-up game

Regardless of what Paulo 61 Bento thinks, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo was on the bench today.

Soon the game officially began, and the first to kick off was the Mozambican team, a team from Africa that was not at all superior, and could even be said to be a fish belly.

At this time, seeking such an opponent to warm up is nothing more than finding confidence, so that the players of the Portuguese national team can find their form as soon as possible to meet the upcoming South African Shijie Cup.

However, at the beginning of the game, the team, which was regarded as a fish belly by the Portuguese national team, gave the Portuguese national team a disadvantage.

The Mozambican team kicked off in the middle circle, the striker passed back to the midfielder Peremben, Peremben directly transferred the football to the side, fullback Chapanga immediately broke through along the side with the ball, and when he met the full-back of the Portuguese national team, he directly pushed the football forward and sent it to the full-back Bila.

Billa dribbled forward with the ball, a succession of changes of direction past the Portuguese national team's full-backs, and then the ball was taken directly from the side, and the ball flew into the Portuguese national team's penalty area at high speed.

In the penalty area, Mozambique's centre-forward Jerry jumped high to head the ball into the goal, but he only scratched a little bit of interference from Portugal national team centre-back Carvalho, and the ball did not fly towards the goal, but towards the other striker in the box, Gocalves.

Seeing the football flying over, Guncalves did not hesitate, and directly volleyed sideways, and his round right leg hit the football fiercely.

With a bang, the football immediately flew towards the goal of the Portuguese national team like a cannonball. The goalkeeper of the Portuguese national team, Eduardo, immediately made a sideways pounce and stretched out his hands straight. Unfortunately, Eduardo didn't pounce on the football, which flew past his fingers and flew into the door of the Portuguese national team.

Goncalves ate the ball very accurately, and also pressed the ball down, and this shot was crisp and clean, it was a textbook sideways volley.

That's the case with African players, who often do amazing things because of their special physicality.

And now the Portuguese national team has fallen on top of the amazing act of the Africans, which surprised all the fans at the scene, they would never have imagined that the start would be like this!

In fact, even the Mozambicans who scored the goal themselves did not expect this to be the case?

The goal was a surprise for them, and it thrilled the Mozambicans, with all the players frantically rushing towards the goal-scorer Goncalves, knocking him to the ground and pressing him hard.

Qiu Ze didn't expect their start to be so bad, they didn't even touch the ball, the Mozambicans scored, and it was less than a minute before the kick-off, God, what could be worse than that?

On the sidelines, the head coach of the Portuguese national team, Paulo 61 Bento, was also stunned, this start blinded him, the reason why he chose Mozambique was to find confidence for the Portuguese national team, but from this start, what kind of confidence is the Portuguese national team looking for?

Paulo 61 Bento is very dissatisfied with the performance of the players of the Portuguese national team, of course, from the beginning of the game to the present, the Portuguese players have not performed at all, it is precisely because there is no performance, people score, he is angry.

The players of the Portuguese national team are underestimating Mozambique, and it is really reasonable that the arrogant soldiers will be defeated.

Paulo 61 Bento was angry, but he didn't yell on the sidelines, he thought that against a team like Mozambique, the players of the Portuguese national team can adjust themselves, and if they can't do that, then there is no point in playing this Shijie Cup.

The goal was an accident and as Qiu Ze and the Portuguese national team players were, they didn't let the accidental goal disconnect their chances.

The game restarted, and the Portuguese national team still played according to the pre-match arrangement, and did not panic at all because of this goal, which made Paul 61 Bento feel a little better.

The ball frequently rolls at the feet of Qiu Ze, who manages the entire Portuguese national team in midfield, dispatching the Portuguese national team and also mobilizing the Mozambican defence.

After scoring the goal, Mozambique did not choose to defend to the death, even against the Portuguese national team, which is much better than them, they still insisted on attacking. A lot of times, teams in Africa and teams in South America want to think that they are naturally attacking.

And the Mozambican manager also knows that this is a rare opportunity to practice, if it is just to nest in the back, it will not have the effect they want, so they don't care about the result of this game, they care about the process.

So, Mozambique played very aggressively today, and of course then they have a big hole in the back. However, the Mozambican African players are very fast and flexible, so they often move quickly and quickly to fill the gaps.

The Mozambican players are constantly running fast, which is a lot of physical exertion, they will certainly not run like this throughout the game, they are now safe, in fact, they are overexerting, and by the second half of the game, the Mozambicans will definitely collapse.

However, even the Mozambican team at its peak may not be able to withstand the attack of the Portuguese national team.

In the fifteenth minute of the first half, the attacking Portuguese national team finally tore apart Mozambique's defense.

After receiving the football, Qiu Ze in the middle suddenly dribbled forward, and after using his excellent jishu and speed to get past two Mozambican defenders in succession, he immediately stuffed the ball into the Mozambique penalty area.

Qiu Ze stuffed the ball very cleverly, in the high-speed run he suddenly stretched out a straight kick, the calf arc is very small, the pass is very hidden, the Mozambican defenders did not react at the first time, the ball accurately passed through the gap between the Mozambican left wingback and the left central defender, rolled into the penalty area.

The Portuguese national team's striker Ledsson's start was very timely, or Qiu Ze who passed the ball was very timely, when he dribbled forward at high speed, he kept his head up, he saw Ledsson's forward insertion, and at the moment when Ledsson stepped forward, Qiu Ze suddenly sent a through ball.

Qiu Ze's pass was very accurate and powerful, and Leedsson came from behind to cut into the box from an offside position, and when he was a half-body ahead of the Mozambican defender, the ball rolled right at his feet.

The ball was passed just right, and all the fans at the scene had to give Qiu Ze a thumbs up, and secretly praised him as Mr. Shijie!

Leedsson, who received the ball, took advantage of the situation to move the ball into the box and faced the Mozambican goalkeeper one-on-one.

At this time, Mozambique's goalkeeper Lima saw Leedsson go straight in, and he had already pounced like a tiger out of the cage and pounced on the football at Leedsson's feet.

Seeing Mozambique's goalkeeper Lima make a quick save, Leedsson immediately shot sideways, gently rubbing the outside of the ball with the inside of his foot to the lower middle of the football and curling the ball.

The ball immediately bypassed Mozambican goalkeeper Lima and drew an arc that flew directly into the back corner of the Mozambican goal.

One-to-one! In the fifteenth minute of the first half, the Portuguese national team equalized, and the goal was scored by Leedsun, but a lot of credit goes to Qiu Ze. And Qiu Ze's performance is very exciting, especially his through ball, which is a masterclass pass.

Qiu Ze has performed very well in the past fifteen minutes, and his scheduling in the midfield has simply put the Portuguese national team in good order, and the Portuguese national team has shown a very strong sense of integrity and tactical thinking.

This made the fans at the scene can't help but be more optimistic about Qiu Ze, after all, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo's performance was unsatisfactory before, and at the same time, when Cristiano 61 Ronaldo was on the field, the Portuguese national team seemed a little scattered, relying more on individual ability to play, not like a whole.

Therefore, after seeing Qiu Ze's performance, everyone is honestly more inclined to Qiu Ze, and they think that this kind of football is promising.

The game continued, Mozambique did not close, and they continued to attack. Although the Portuguese national team is now on guard, and their attack is not as easy and threatening as an attack, they are still trying to attack.

And the imagination of this group of African players is very good, and there are occasional amazing works, or a casual outstanding, or an inadvertent cooperation that always makes people shine.

But to be honest, the Mozambican players are really not very strong, they do not pose much threat to the Portuguese national team, although the Mozambican team can sometimes reach the Portuguese national team in front of the penalty area, but they always can't keep up at the most critical moments, that is, the most critical one is too bad.

However, it was not easy for the Mozambican team to play like this, and the fans at the scene also gave applause to the enterprising Mozambican team.

However, this will not save the Mozambican team from defeat. In the 24th minute of the first half, nine minutes after Leedsson's goal, the Portuguese national team broke through the door of Mozambique again.

This attack was still launched from the middle, from Qiu Ze's feet.

Facing the Mozambican defender Simão with the ball, Qiu Ze suddenly stepped up to steal the football at Simão's feet, and then he immediately passed the ball to Veloso, who was following up. Qiu Ze then cut forward at high speed and got past another Mozambican midfielder, Peremben.

Veloso didn't stop the ball, and sent the ball directly forward and sent it to Qiu Ze's forward line.

Two-by-one, Qiu Ze and Veloso came to a two-on-one and easily passed Mozambique's two big backs, to be honest, Mozambique's defense is really not good compared to their attack?

After passing the two backs, Qiu Ze was in front of him on a smooth road, and Qiu Ze immediately dribbled forward with the ball at high speed and rushed towards the Mozambique penalty area. Mozambique's full-back Billa immediately leaned into the middle and chased after Qiu Ze at high speed to intercept and interfere with Qiu Ze.

Bila's speed is very fast, but Qiu Ze's speed is not slow either. However, Qiu Ze did not eat the opponent hard, but suddenly sent the football to the side.

Nani on the wing caught the ball and immediately raced forward, then a series of feints shook past the Mozambican full-back and cut inside into the box. Mozambique's centre-back Fanuel immediately pounced to intercept Nani, who immediately turned into a deficit.

Fanuel immediately followed, but at the moment when he followed, Nani suddenly passed the football back to the penalty spot, and Qiu Ze, who followed up, calmly volleyed without being marked, and with a bang, the football flew into the Mozambican goal like a bolt of lightning.

2-1, the Portuguese national team finally overtook the score, and the fans at the scene were excited and applauded.
