The opening ceremony showed the connotation of war, history, world changes and football against the background of original music, and culminated in the ups and downs of 700 people in 9 minutes. The audience was able to experience the past, present and future of Portugal through live performances, and the unique sailing ceremony was praised throughout the opening ceremony, showcasing the unique Portuguese style.

Hu Li secretly thought at this time, don't you a colonizer and invader just want to show the scenery of your Portugal as a colonist, thinking that Hu Li's sense of nationality was strongly sublimated, under the threat of guns, on December 1, 1887, Portugal and the Qing Dynasty government signed the "Draft Treaty of the Sino-Portuguese Conference" and the "Sino-Portuguese Treaty of Peace and Commerce", officially through the procedures of diplomatic documents to occupy Macao and turn it into a colony. After more than a century, when China stood on top of the world, on December 20, 1999, China resumed the exercise of sovereignty over Australia.

Thinking of this, as a hot-blooded Chinese youth, I can't help but want to do something for my motherland.

In the locker room, the opening ceremony is about to end, the football players are about to play, and the pre-game mobilization Hu Li believes that there is no need for it, which will only increase the psychological pressure of the players. This is very important for the Greek team players who have not participated in an international tournament.

As a broadcaster, Sky TV has a unique advantage. Taylor, as the ace football commentator of Sky TV, was of course the football commentator of the opening game launched by Sky TV. Partnered with him was the famous Portuguese football commentator Carracci, when the little ball boys each wore two national team uniforms into the stadium, the scene of the Delagao Stadium was a jubilant sound one after another, one after another, many Chinese people who came to the scene, it was the first time to see such a hot scene on the spot. In fact, they are all rushing to Hu Li, now the living standards of the domestic people are getting higher and higher, and there are more and more new middle-class stages, under the bombardment of Hu Li's sweeping major media headlines in China, now if there are Chinese people who say they don't know Hu Li, then he must be despised by everyone.

UEFA is also painstaking, when selling tickets, they store a grandstand area for Chinese people, this is the benefit of celebrities, Johnson admires Hu Li's behavior very much, so he is now particularly fond of Chinese people.

"Dear viewers, good evening, I'm your old friend Martin. Taylor and Karachi were honoured to be commentators for the opening match of the 12th edition of the 2004 European Football Championship in Portugal. ”

"Yes, it's a great honor. Dear Mr. Karachi, what do you think of this game? ”

"Martin, you're so polite, we don't need to exchange so many pleasantries."

"I think it's going to be a big opener. The reason why I say this is mainly because there are too many factors that affect this game before the game. First: the temporary change of coach of the Greek team has brought greater variables. Second: Foxes, a young coach who took over as head coach of the Greek national team in less than 10 days after winning the Premier League and Champions League, now has seven Leicester City players in the main players, which adds even more variety to the competition. Third: Throughout Foxes' coaching up to now, the team he leads is very good at playing against the wind, the more giant, the stronger the team, the greater the energy of Leicester City led by him, and Portugal is one of the traditional European powerhouses, this is another variable. Fourth: Foxes are good at creating some trouble for the opponent outside the game, making the opponent mess up, and now there is indeed a discordant voice in Portugal, which is another variable. As a Portuguese, of course 100% of my country is supportive, but as a professional football commentator, there are a lot of variables in my mind about this game. ”

"Oh God, Karachi, you are really a very professional and calm football expert, and your assessment of this game is very pertinent. As a full-time commentator in the Premier League, I know Foxes very well. I just want to say one thing, Hu Li will definitely stand on the sidelines and command the Greek team throughout today's game, and this game is as you said, very variable. “

"Look, players from both sides are on the pitch."

The players on both sides took the hands of the little caddies and slowly walked into the court, and the strong music drove the fans to cheer and shout for their teams. Shouting out about the team you love.

Portugal has a home advantage, is a traditional European powerhouse, and has a strong fan base, on the other hand, the Greek team, as a second-rate or even third-rate team in Europe, is far from being able to compete with the Portuguese team in terms of the number of fans.

The Portugal squad is full of superstars, attracting fans from all over the world to support their beloved stars.

Figo, Rui. The appearance of Costa, C. Ronaldo, etc., instantly caused the restlessness of the Dragao Stadium, and the Portuguese superstars frequently waved to the fans and interacted with the fans, and Carvalho, Miguel, Deco, Pauletta and others also waved to the fans at the same time.

Martin. Taylor and "Carachi, one thing I find strange, the main lineup of the Portuguese team is: goalkeeper No. 1 Ricardo, defender No. 13 Miguel, No. 4 Andrade, No. 16 Carvalho, No. 14 Valente, midfielder No. 6 Costinha, No. 18 Maniche, No. 7 Figo, No. 20 Deco, striker No. 17 C. Ronaldo, No. 9 Pauletta. Why is the core midfielder Rui missing? What about Costa. “

"Yes Martin, you read that right, it's true that the arrangement is a bit strange today, and it is said that in our current Portuguese team, Rui. Costa is the real heart of the midfield, with him in the midfield, there is an effective way to move the forward line, I really understand what Mr. Scolari is playing, can Deco be able to play this position? “

"Martin, you see, the first list of the Greek team is the same as we predicted, goalkeepers: Nicopolidis, defenders: Ebel, Dras, Kaposis, Hebrew, forwards: Richard, Giana Kopoulos Calagones, Chatas, Zagorakis, forwards: Charlistias. It seems that Foxes is still using his usual 451 formation today. “

"Yes, that's right, Karachi, Foxes relied on this set of 451 formations, it can be said that they were invincible in the 2003-2004 season, this set of formations in the formation change between attack and defense conversion, it is indeed a lot of strong teams suffered, if the Portuguese team can't adapt today, it seems that Portugal will be dangerous today."

Martin. As soon as Taylor's comment was spoken, the scene burst into boos.

But for those of football's biggest names and coaches, for Martin. Taylor's comments are true.

Heathfield and Ferguson are also old enemies, and their understanding of Hu Li is only superficial, so he humbly asked Ferguson for advice: "Your Excellency, is this Foxes really so strong?" He's still so young. “

Ferguson habitually lifted the frame of his glasses, "I know you have a contempt for a young coach like Foxes to achieve such results, if you still face Foxes with such a mentality, I can tell you Otmar, only the team you lead will lose, even if you lead Real Madrid, you will fall to the feet of the team led by Offes." “

Hearing Ferguson's evaluation, it immediately attracted the interest of the surrounding coaches, Capello, as one of the most successful coaches in Italy, although the concept of football is different from Hu Li, but the desire for victory is the same, especially after Leicester City's victory over AC Milan, his attention and importance to Hu Li is no less than that of other famous coaches, there is an opponent, is the luck of a coach.

"I think Sir Alex Ferguson is very reasonable, I have studied the tactics of Foxes carefully, his tactics are very simple, it can also be said to be very complex, based on the 451 formation, when defending you can even put all the players in the ladder defense, when attacking the 433 formation changes so quickly, it is really difficult for many teams to adapt. And I feel that the change of formation in the attack is not only limited to 433, I think it is more appropriate to change the offensive formation to 253 or 2512, Foxes in the attack, the left and right fullbacks at the same time, one back to take the defensive strategy of marking the defense, two central defenders behind the defensive strategy, really a headache for the opponent. What's even more terrifying is that when the offense and defense are switched, the two fullbacks on the left and right are so fast to return to the defense and strong in the back position, even if it is a world-class defensive counterattack team like AC Milan, it is also a sigh of admiration. So I think that although Foxes is young, he deserves our attention, and we old men should accept him, respect him, and support him, he is a shot in the arm to change the football we have now, and the old order should be broken. “

"Yes, I feel the same way with Mr. Capello, although I have only encountered three games against Leicester City in the Premier League, but to be honest, Foxes is one of the toughest opponents I have faced in the Premier League, sometimes I think he is more difficult than Sir Alex Ferguson, and it is more disturbing, Mr. Capello, you have not played against him, in order to win the game, he will disintegrate the opponent in the most tactful way, and he will also use the most despicable means to make your generals lose a few people in a row, And so that you still can't find evidence of his meanness. He's the embodiment of the devil and the angel, but for the fans, even the fans of the other side, the love of the foxes will also fall in love with him as the game or time goes by, including myself. I believe there is a market for this, for example, Sir Alex Ferguson, who would not have pushed his captain Keane under Foxes. “

"Old Wenger, what you said is not wrong, Foxes is indeed the manager I admire the most, look at his performance in the Premier League in the past two years, look at his performance in the Champions League, who of us here has the ability to achieve such brilliant achievements in the second year of entering the professional league, such talents we should protect well, to be honest, the top people standing in this circle are only a few of us, the situation of various clubs and UEFA should all be known, The strong rise of FOXES will inevitably be constrained and unspoken by many parties, and I hope that all of us will be more tolerant and supportive of young people when dealing with them, and let these young people take fewer detours. “

After listening to Ferguson's words, several famous coaches also felt the same way, no matter who it is, there will always be times when they are at a low point, but the club will not care about you, Ancelotti, Box, Lippi, Van Gaal, and Heathfield have basically suffered similar experiences.

"I agree with His Excellency Jazz, no matter how strong AC Milan is, there will be times when there are lows, I deeply agree, although foxes eliminated AC Milan, but I really don't blame him, but in the on-the-spot command of the game, in the management of the players, I learned a lot from the foxes. I support him. “

"Ancelotti is not wrong, we should protect young people, I have always had a good impression of Chinese people, although Ajax has a little conflict with Foxes, it does not affect my appreciation of him."

But the good old man of Boxy quipped: "Mr. van Gaal, you are afraid of the fists of the foxes." “

Everyone burst into laughter.

Not to mention a group of world famous coaches discussing the bits and pieces of Foxes, the first lineups of the two sides have been introduced on the field.

After a symbolic handshake with Scolari, Hu Li and Scolari returned to the dugout.

The referee for the opening match was referee Markus from Germany. Merck, the captains of both sides were in the end of guessing, and the Greek team took the lead in attacking.

With a long whistle blowing and Merck's arm pointing in the direction of the attack, the Greeks began to launch a formal attack into the heart of Portugal.

After Greek striker Chalisteas knocked the ball back to midfield captain Zagorakis, the stadium erupted in boos that the Portuguese fans wanted to upset the Greek team's morale in this way.

Zagorakis quickly passed the ball to Calagones in the middle of the pitch after receiving the ball, and as called for in the training plan, Karagones played in the midfield position, Zagorakis and Chatas played left and right wingers, and Richard and Giana Kopulos played as a double midfielder. After receiving the pass in the middle, Calagones saw the left and right defenders of the back line Able and Hebrew pressing instantly.

"Look, it's Leicester City's style of play again, the two fullbacks press up, forming an overall front attack line, it depends on how Portugal defends." Martin. Taylor cried out excitedly.

Deco was the most experienced at this time, pushing up less than a month, and during the Champions League final, it was Leicester City's pressing style of play that caught Porto off guard, and it can even be said that there was no way to fight back.

"Carvalho and Andrade pay attention to the defense in the middle, Maniche intercepts in the middle, and I will help the defense."

Figo was ridiculous to see Deco as if he were on the verge of a great enemy, as for that? Isn't it just the beginning?

Before Figo's thoughts could return to his brain, the ball suddenly passed over his head, and Chatas on the right suddenly crossed the left side of Figo's guard and cut inside from the middle. Figo reacted at this time, okay, Lao Tzu is the world footballer, you still dare to attack the left side of my town.

Figo immediately chased Chatas, when Figo chased Chatas, Hebrew later inserted near the bottom line on the right side, when Chatas was caught between Figo and Carvalho, the ball was lightly knocked with the inside foot of his left foot, the ball rolled to the corner of the right baseline, Hebrew gently rubbed the ball up, the ball drew a graceful arc and transferred to the back point of the left side, Calagones jumped high and shook his head hard.

Calagones threw it hard and struck the Portuguese goalkeeper Nicopolidis in the heart.

Nikopolidis watched as the ball hung into the net, but he couldn't do anything, he couldn't reach the ball, yes, he couldn't reach the ball.

After a few seconds of banning the scene at the Porto de la Go, an earth-shattering shout suddenly rang out.

Referee Merck was also forced, why did he score so quickly, the game was less than 3 minutes. With a tactful and undulating whistle, Merck pointed with one arm to the centre circle kick-off and the goal was valid.

"The goal went in, it was Greece who scored first, an incredible goal. Oh my God, Greece leads Portugal 1-0. "Martin. Taylor shouted excitedly, who made him a fan of Hu Li.

The players of the Greek team did not expect that the leader's plan would be so successful. Taking advantage of Figo's contempt for the former World Footballer, he directly attacked this area defended by Figo, and it immediately had an effect.

At this time, the trust of all the members of the Greek team in Hu Li has reached its peak.

On the other hand, the Portuguese team was at a loss, and C. Ronaldo and Pauletta were running back to receive the ball when they suddenly conceded a goal.

It's too much to accept.

What the hell is going on, I lost the ball in less than 3 minutes, and I only made a few fucking passes.

When did the Greek team become so strong?
