18. Portugal Platinum Generation
As the Premier League's top scorer this season, the European Golden Boot winner and the FA Cup top scorer, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo is undoubtedly the favourite to be the top scorer in this tournament. However, before the first game against Turkey, Portugal coach Scolari publicly stated that Cristiano 61 Ronaldo should focus on the team's overall situation, and he did not want the favorite to end up being the best player in this tournament.
However, in this game, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo's performance did not meet the requirements of Scolari's classmates, and even this guy did not do anything according to Scolari's arrangement, he always controlled the ball at his feet and was unwilling to pass the football.
It is said that at halftime, Scolari was furious and furious, and severely criticized Cristiano 61 Ronaldo.
Scolari didn't seem to hide it after the game, saying after the game: "I don't want Cristiano 61 Ronaldo to be the best player in this tournament. He should be part of the team and contribute to Portugal's success in the European Championships. ”
Scolari believes that Cristiano 61 Ronaldo is one of the top players in the Premier League and in the Shijie range. However, as a member of the Portuguese team, Scolari does not care how many goals Cristiano 61 Ronaldo can score for the team, and how to integrate more into the team is the winger's priority.
Scolari said: "Cristiano 61 should know how to play for different teams, after all, each team has different tactics. His role should be more about how to make the team win than it is about individual performances. ”
Scolari believes that Portugal's current squad that is the envy of other opponents will be able to continue to produce good results in the future: "Victory is certainly the best start. However, I know that my team definitely has the quality to win all the way. ”
Of course, after the game, Scolari also praised the opponent Turkey: "The players of the Turkish team are very tenacious like Trim, they caused us a lot of problems in this game, and at one point we were desperate. They've shown their quality, they've been a good team and I'm confident they can go far. ”
After the game, several of the big players of the Portuguese national team were interviewed by the media, and they answered like this.
Defender Carvalho was also very happy to talk about the victory in the game at the press conference. He began by thanking the fans: "I would like to celebrate this victory with our fans, they have been so lovely and have given great support to our national team. ”
The Portuguese "Iron Gate" then added: "We are more confident now through this game and now we have to think about how to face the next challenges. ”
Speaking to reporters, Simão, who was active in the game, said: "The victory in this game was not easy to come by, but he made us more confident. At the same time, this victory will also belong to Quiim, who has left us for the time being, but we are confident that he will always be with us. ”
Midfielder Deco also briefly talked about the victory of this game, "We are always in control of the game, we know the importance of this game, we can't lose the first game. ”
And Qiu Ze also expressed his opinion: "The victory in this game is important for us, and we don't want to repeat the mistakes of four years ago. Today we did it, and of course we are happy. But I hope we can keep going and keep winning. ”
After the game, there were also a lot of reporters who wanted to interview Cristiano 61 Ronaldo, but Cristiano 61 Ronaldo's face was very bad, ignoring any reporters, squeezing away the reporters and leaving.
Everyone can see that Cristiano 61 Ronaldo is very unhappy now, and everyone knows that Cristiano 61 Ronaldo is unhappy. These reporters are happy to see that they know they have got what they want.
Now, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo is in a really bad mood. Because this time the head coach Scolari openly favored Qiu Ze's side, which made Cristiano 61 Ronaldo very unhappy.
Cristiano 61 Ronaldo has long known that Scolari likes Qiu Ze very much, and he knew it in the German Shijie Cup two years ago. It's just that Qiu Ze's status is not as high and important as his Cristiano 61 Ronaldo.
At that time, Scolari endured it for the sake of the overall situation, and Scolari had to give up Qiu Ze. Now, Qiu Ze is a little bit out of the picture, and Scolari immediately put pressure on him, straightened Qiu Ze, and even let Qiu Ze control the ball.
Cristiano 61 Ronaldo thinks Scolari is crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, unloading the mill and killing the donkey. This made Cristiano 61 Ronaldo very angry. He was very upset with Qiu Ze and Scolari, so after the game, he kept a cold face.
After hearing Scolari's words after the game, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo was even more angry. Scolari actually allowed himself to sacrifice himself to fulfill Qiu Ze! He couldn't do that!
Of course, Scolari's exact words were to let Cristiano 61 Ronaldo think more about the team. However, in the eyes of Cristiano 61 Ronaldo, it became for Qiu Ze's consideration.
Cristiano 61 Ronaldo is very angry, he wants to pick directly, he really can't stay in such a garbage team. But it is impossible for him to pick a pick, first of all, in terms of influence in terms of public opinion, after all, he is now representing the Portuguese national team.
If Cristiano 61 Ronaldo picks on this, then public opinion will definitely criticize Cristiano 61 Ronaldo. Cristiano 61 Ronaldo is not a fool, he will not do it.
Also, now Cristiano 61 Ronaldo must endure humiliation, because Cristiano 61 Ronaldo still has to attack Shijie Footballer. Now that he is very close to Shijie Footballer of the Year, he now has to make sure that he has more Haode results in the European Championships.
So, for now, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo still has to endure it in the team, and for the sake of Shijie Footballer, he has to endure it.
Of course, after this European Championship, he will not have to endure it any longer.
At this time, Figo, the representative of the golden generation of the Portuguese national team, stood up at this time and expressed his own views on the game, in an interview with reporters, Figo expressed his opinion like this: "Portugal is not only Cristiano 61 Ronaldo, when he was seen dead by the opponent, the other players got the opportunity and performed very well. This is enough to show that Portugal is not a team that relies only on Cristiano 61 Ronaldo. ”
Moreover, Figo also said: "The opponent has to understand this, and Cristiano himself has to understand this. At all times, the team is always above the individual players. If he can't do that, then he can never be called a success. ”
From here, everyone can see that Figo is also on the opposite side of his successor, and he also thinks that now Cristiano 61 Ronaldo is too selfish, and sometimes he should think more about the team.
Rui 61 Costa, a representative of Portugal's golden generation, who just retired this summer, also had his own opinion after Portugal's opening game, saying in an interview with reporters: "Chris did very well today, he did his job to the fullest. However, I firmly believe that he will perform better, so let's keep watching. ”
Rui 61 Costa was still on the side of his disciples, and many people in Portugal now refer to Qiu Ze as a student of Rui 61 Costa. Because when the two were together at Benfica, Rui 61 Costa often pointed out Qiu Ze.
Now the Portuguese national team has the new "Figo" Cristiano 61 Ronaldo and Nani, and the new "Rui 61 Costa" Qiu Ze, the Portuguese national team will definitely get better and better, and they firmly believe that the Portuguese national team will definitely win the championship of this European Cup.
After the European Cup, veterans Rui 61 Costa and Couto took off their boots, and Figo and Pauletta retired from the national team after the 2006 Shijie Cup. In addition to the goalkeeper in this European Cup, the only veterans over 30 years old in the Portuguese national team are 32-year-old Nuno 61 Gomez and 31-year-old Deco.
In this game, the Portuguese team lined up a four-two-three-one lineup, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo led the start, and a Chelsea combination was sent to the backline, Ferreira, Carvalho and Bosingwa are all from Chelsea, the midfield is led by Qiu Ze, and Deco and Veloso are separated on both sides. In the front line, Gomez was at the front, with Nani and Cristiano 61 Ronaldo on the wings.
In fact, if Scolari had been a little more daring, Postiga and Almeida could have replaced Gomez. 25-year-old Pepe, 21-year-old Qiu Ze, 22-year-old Nani, 23-year-old Cristiano 61 Lualdo, plus Almeida in his early 20s, such a central axis is very young in the European Championship team, with an endless stream of newcomers rising to the top, Portugal has set off a youth storm in this European Cup.
Compared to the golden generation at Euro 2004, the current Portugal team is no less starry. Reigning star Cristiano 61 Luirondo is highly likely to win the Ballon d'Or due to his outstanding performances in the Premier League and Champions League this year.
Of course, Qiu Ze, the core of the Reds' midfield, is also not inferior to Cristiano's 61 Ronaldo, and even more so sharp. If it weren't for the seniority of the national team, the leader of the Portuguese national team would not be Cristiano 61 Ronaldo, but Qiu Ze.
Carvalho, Bosingwa and Pacos Ferreira are from Chelsea, while Pepe is the absolute mainstay of Real Madrid. Also sitting on the bench in midfield were Qiu Ze's former friend Moutinho, and Porto winger Quaresma, who was scrambled all over Europe.
It is no exaggeration to say that the current Portuguese team has long been worth far more than the older generation, and if we call the prosperity of Portugal at that time the golden generation, the current Portugal has entered the platinum generation.
And now some Portuguese media have begun to use the "platinum generation" to describe the current Portuguese team.
