Chapter 125: The one-sided goal drama in the first half
Carvalho, Deco, and Pauletta, as losers who experienced the baptism of the Champions League final, do have an inexplicable palpitation for the Greek team led by Hu Li. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Conceding a goal in less than three minutes was impossible in their minds.
But now the facts tell them that the Greek team is ahead, and there are negative reports about Portugal in the early stage, which do exist, and verify that the media reports are correct.
Figo paid the price for his freedom and contempt, but this price is too great, in the face of the rest of the game, Figo has to give it his all, otherwise he will become the sinner of Portugal, even if you Figo is a superstar, the world footballer, you can not escape the condemnation and punishment of the Portuguese fans.
Supposedly, as a veteran player, as a world-class superstar, Figo should not have behaved like this. However, as he grew older and had years of ruthlessness in the Real Madrid team, he felt deeply tired and unwilling, and the growth of the national team as a veteran player threatened his position all the time. All of the above factors have caused Figo's psychological state to be unstable.
Figo's envy now is Redondo, a former La Liga rival who did not become teammates due to the time difference, although they played together for Real Madrid. However, this did not affect his admiration for Redondo.
I can't go on like this, I want to prove to the world that I'm not old, and I'm still the king of the left side.
Figo yelled loudly, startling his teammates around him.
Before the kick-off, Figo called out to Costinha, Maniche, Figo, Deco, C. Ronaldo, Pauletta, Carvalho and others: "Guys, it was my fault for conceding just now, I'm sorry everyone. I can't go on like this anymore, so I've decided to fight against the water, and I hope for your support. ”
Seeing that the bosses of the team are like this, what else do the remaining juniors say, the face of the emperor superstar must be given, otherwise they will not mix in this football world in the future. "After kick-off, let's not rush to attack first, first stabilize the defense, Marcheni pay attention to Andrade, Carvalho, our attack point is on the left and in the middle, one point is in me, one point is in Deco, there is no chance to transfer the ball immediately. If it's hard to get into their penalty area when attacking, Ronaldo, Pauletta, you two pay more attention to retreating and getting the ball. ”
"Let's do it together."
"Come on, come on!"
Hu Li was on the sidelines, and his open sense of hearing listened to all of Figo's arrangements thoroughly.
It's okay, I can't imagine that Figo is really good, worthy of being a superstar of the emperor, and he calmed the chaotic scene in Portugal at once, Scolari is really lucky.
Well, if you want to defend solidly, let's attack, and that's a rare opportunity.
As the captain of the Greek team, one of the most important responsibilities of Zagorakis now is to pass on the commands of Hu Li.
"Zagorakis, tell Richard to speed up the game, attack, except for the central defenders who are not involved in the direct attack, let them press the formation, and the two full-backs plug in with all their might. Aim for another goal in the first half".
When Zagorakis passed on the message to everyone, the players of Old Leicester City instantly understood Hu Li's intentions. "The boss is going to kill Portugal in the first half."
Karachi saw that the Greek team's formation was obviously pressed, and Portugal had not kicked off yet, did the Greek team think of daring to play against Portugal after scoring a goal at the home of Portugal? Didn't they defend solidly first? It's too bold. Portugal's midfield configuration can be said to be world-class attacking power, and your Greek team's defense is so average.
Scolari saw that Figo took the initiative to communicate with the players, as a famous coach, of course he knew what was happening on the field, so he chose not to move, and the psychology of Portugal's golden generation was not so fragile. Figo, as the boss's command, will only lead Portugal to be more offensive and more proactive in defense.
As Scolari expected, the moment the whistle blew, the stars of Portugal's midfield poured into the heart of the Greek team.
Deco and Calagones are also old acquaintances, in the Champions League final, although Calagones did not directly oppose Deco, but Caragones's every help defense made Deco go back in vain, Caragones's ball quotient is too high, too smart, he is a representative who really plays with his brain, plus Caragones is tall, it is really not easy to get past Caragones's defense,
In the 6th minute of the game, Deco played the ball from the middle to the left side, Richard pressed step by step, Ronaldo ran up to respond, Deco passed Richard through the gear with a diagonal pass, this cross-gear ball was so creative, the fans gave warm applause.
C. Ronaldo received Deco's block ball and ran with the ball excitedly. I saw a figure rushing towards the ball at Ronaldo's feet, in order to prevent it from hitting the opponent's body, Ronaldo made a quick stop to change the line, and before he could handle the ball, he gently poked the ball from Ronaldo's back foot, and Portugal controlled the ball for 4 minutes.
Richard smiled at Ronaldo. "Oh God, every time I hear your laughter, I'm going to be unlucky." Ronaldo said angrily.
"Ronaldo, we're both old acquaintances, as for that, besides, I'm three years older than you, you have to call me big brother."
Ronaldo was angry in his heart, he couldn't be more familiar with Richard, and every time he played against Leicester City, he always had a sense of powerlessness when facing Richard. It was as if every time he moved, Richard could predict it.
Fortunately, now Ronaldo is relieved, and after the Manchester United game, Sir Alex Ferguson approached him to discuss the problems and progress of this season, and told him that next season, he will bring in a strong midfielder to replace Keane, and this person is Richard. For this Ronaldo was happy for several days, Richard's strength Ronaldo is very clear. With his joining, in the defense of the midfield, in the control of the rhythm of the game, and in the support of the frontcourt attack, Richard can be said to have won the inheritance of Redondo, it can be said that in the entire Premier League, the most comprehensive strength of the back is ranked first Redondo, and the second must be Richard.
But in today's game, Richard will definitely not let go of himself, not to mention that there is a legendary young marshal Foxes behind this kid, and this game is difficult to play.
After Richard deduced Ronaldo's ball, Hebrew received it and attacked with the ball.
Relative Robert. For a superstar right-back like Carlos, Hebrew's fame is simply not worth mentioning, but for the current Hebrew, it is indeed a special name, and no one thinks that his strength is limited to third-rate league players like Greece. That's why he cherishes his current achievements.
Compared with Erb, Hebrew deeply knows where his shortcomings are, he does not have Erb's high EQ, he does not have Erb's ball quotient, to put it mildly, he says that he is more stupid. But it wasn't until Foxes had an in-depth conversation with him that he completely buried his pessimism, and he actively engaged in training according to Foxes' requirements, training more than 1 hour later than others every day. He practiced Leicester's tactics again and again, and got used to every running position, every supplement, and every assistant position. He rehearsed the landing of the ball again and again to increase his prediction of the best landing point of the ball. After more than two years, he has tempered himself to be extremely strong and stable, and in terms of changes in offensive routines, he has adapted to nearly 50 kinds of routine changes, and changes in offensive routines have caused the opponent to be unable to defend against you, so in Leicester City's offensive and defensive system, the right fullback occupies an extremely important fulcrum.
Hebrew is particularly good at predicting where the ball will land, and he has now achieved 70% accuracy, so when it comes to set-piece defence, Hebrew is the toughest for Leicester City.
The Hebrews silently led the advance, and Figo's first line of defense failed to stop the advance of the faith.
When Maniche rushed towards Hebrew, Hebrew slashed a diagonal kick, and Greek striker Calagones received the ball and fired a direct long-range shot, and the ball rushed towards Ricardo's gate like a cannonball.
The ball flew so fast and with a certain arc that Ricardo did not dare to catch it with both hands, and he stretched out his fists and struck the ball.
At this point, all eyes were on the ball that flew after being knocked out of the box.
"Another long-range shot, yes, there was a long-range shot, the Greek right-back Hebrew fired a long-range shot from outside the box, the ball was not very fast, but the angle was very tricky, and it went straight to the top right corner of the goal." Martin. Taylor shouted frantically.
The goal was scored, the second goal, and the game opened less than eight minutes when Greece fired two long-range shots in quick succession, and finally a long-range shot from outside the box by right-back Hebrew broke Ricciardo's ten fingers. Oh my God, the Greeks were really lucky today, they had their second shot of the game and they were 100 per cent efficient. ”
Ronaldo looked feebly at Hebrew and Calagones who were rushing to celebrate, he was familiar with the scene, in the Premier League, Leicester City broke down the dense defence, by the way, they still had set-pieces not played. Ronaldo felt powerless, powerless, powerless for the defeat of this game.
Scolari couldn't sit down anymore, and it was only a long time before the Greek team scored two goals, and this old face couldn't hang up. He ran to the middle of the sideline and shouted, pay attention to defense, defense, and the gap between the three lines could not leave too big a gap. The back line gave his mother to Lao Tzu to tense up and get serious.
Not to mention Scolari roaring and yelling at the players, even the fans who were there were also boosing.
The earth-shattering boos made the Portuguese superstars lose their faces. Well, at his own doorstep, in Porto, a famous football city, under the leadership of the superstars of the golden generation, he was actually led by the other side 2:0, and it was only less than 10 minutes into the game.
Even German referee Angela Merck was shocked. Portugal is also a world-class powerhouse, even against the French team and the Brazilian team, no one dares to say that they are 2 goals ahead of Portugal in the first half of the game. Is the Greek team's performance today a chicken blood, it doesn't look like it. The only explanation is that their luck is just too good.
When Merck blew the whistle, Portugal sounded the horn of attack again.
Paoleta, an orthodox Portuguese striker, was keen to be Portugal's savior in the team's current predicament, and once he entered the penalty area, he reached out to Figo for the ball. Figo knows that in the current situation, it is not suitable to invest more offensive troops, and the Portuguese players at this time are actually very psychologically fragile, according to the manager's arrangement, Portugal should not rush to attack now.
Figo did not choose to attack, but passed the ball to the midfielder in the middle, and after receiving the ball, Macioni also fully understood Figo's intentions, and now he defends solidly and has the right mentality, which is the most important thing for Portugal to do.
"If the enemy retreats, I will advance" Since you want to defend firmly first, then you should keep defending.
Hu Li waved his hand on the sidelines, and the Greek formation poured into the heart of Portugal with Hu Li's gesture.
The Greek team, which flew on both wings, was under the attack of the left and right sides, and Miguel and Valente were under tremendous pressure.
As the center forward of the Greek team, Charlisteas strictly implemented Hu Li's pre-match arrangement, and his task today was not to score, but to contain. That's right, it's containment, not goal.
Charistias deeply knows that only by firmly remembering Hu Li's requirements and strictly implementing Hu Li's requirements can he gain more and get more. It reminded him of Jefferson, the main centre-forward at Leicester City. Two years ago, Jefferson was just an unknown British professional player, but since Hu Li's coaching, Jefferson has developed by leaps and bounds under Hu Li's guidance, and finally Jefferson has become a top emerging center forward in Europe. So in the process of the game, Charisteas was constantly running, shifting, pulling, and colliding.
Portugal's two centre-backs, Andrade and Carvalho, have been distraught by the centre-forward's attacks as they continue to entangle with Chalisteas. When Giana Koopous crossed the bottom, Carvalho and Chalisteas competed for the header, but failed to resist the tall Charlisteas and fell directly into the penalty area.
A short and powerful whistle sounded, referee Merck pointed to the penalty spot, and Carvalho's foul brought a penalty to the Greek team.
Figo and Pauletta rushed forward to explain, but Merck didn't listen to the explanation, and there was no doubt about the decision.
Richard's nudge of the dead corner made Ricardo stare dryly.
3:0, 25 minutes into the game, Carvalho pulled down Charlisteas in the penalty area and was awarded a penalty.
Now the Porto de la Golf Stadium is silent, it is really silent.
No one could have imagined that the game was less than 30 minutes into the game, the score was already 3-0, and even Scolari was now weak.
The game has been played so far that the first half has no meaning. The Portuguese players are staring blank and they want the game to end quickly.
They want to get into the second half quickly.
They want a savior to show up.
It's a pity that until now, the state of the big names has not risen.
The big names are still sinking.
The cards haven't woken up yet.
They can only wait, waiting for the rebirth of that savior, to lead them in the next game, to take advantage of the momentum.
Ferguson said to Box: "Box, do you think there is any hope for Portugal? ”
"The game is basically over, and the key is to see how many goals the Greek team can score in the second half. Portugal paid the price for their light enemy. With today's match, I now think that the Greek team could be a strong contender for the title of this European Cup. ”
"Yes, did you notice that Portugal changed formation after Figo spoke to his team-mates, and when Foxes took the opportunity and didn't relax, they scored in just a few rounds. It's too efficient. ”
"Lippi is right, the offensive efficiency of the Greek team is terrible, so we must highlight the problem of offensive efficiency in future training, and the attack that can't score goals will always be just light thunder, not rain."
"It seems that I am more and more interested in going to the Premier League." Capello smiled.
The coaches commented on the game, and on the pitch, Greece's Richard broke the ball and knocked it back to Kaposis. Once again, the whole team rushed to the heart of Portugal. Ronaldo could no longer stand this feeling of failure. He defended aggressively and really allowed him to snatch the ball from the opposition's feet.
After the successful steal, Ronaldo ran wildly with the ball, and Figo and Deco followed suit. After entering the penalty area, Ronaldo paused for a while, and after the midfielder followed up, Ronaldo knocked the ball back to Deco, and Ronaldo and Pauletta rushed into the small box at the same time.
Deco was strongly resisted by Greece in the middle, after he picked the ball over Richard's head, Figo brushed past the defender, received the ball and turned to cross the ball to the right, Deco had already moved to the right at this time, Deco passed directly from the right to the box, Ronaldo and Pauletta were weak in headers. So the end of this attack is to return without an attack.
After Nikopolidis took the goal-kick, Greece attacked again, and Calagones won the ball and passed it to the back. Abel, Dras, Kapsis, Hebrew, Richard, and Giana Kopoulos have been in the backfield, and they are not in a hurry to attack, and time passes minute by minute, and the Greek team's inverted feet are still going on, Deco, Ronaldo, and Pauletta really can't stand the provocation of the Greek team, and they rush up.
This style of play is nothing short of torture for Portugal. Figo also rushed forward to interfere with the passing lane. Costinha also rushed forward.
Greece's midfielders confirmed that there was no movement, and when the Portuguese backline only had four defenders at the back, Richard found Chatas in front of him with a long pass, and Chatas picked up the penalty area, and when everyone was about to rush to the top, the ball suddenly dropped at the goal.
Ricciardo was also really unlucky, it was a lift ball. He didn't think of it, and neither did anyone else.
Chattas jumped up with interest, he also scored a goal, and with 40 minutes played, he also scored a goal.
This was a time he never imagined.
The score of 4:0 is a desperate score.
With a score of 4:0, Hu Li believes that this is only the beginning of the game.
