611 Five-Star Brazil!

Owen's goal left the Brazilian players in despair. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
At half-time, they learned that in the other match, Mexico led 1-0. And, according to their understanding, the Mexican team is basically not a big problem to win this team.
Well, if they lose this game, they will have the same points as Mexico. The key depends on the winning goals of both sides!
Mexico only lost one game to England, where they will win the game against their own team. In this way, the Brazilian team obviously suffered a lot in terms of winning goals.
In their opinion, if they want to advance to the next round, they must at least tie the score of this game!
So, after the restart, the Brazilian team, which was fighting for qualification, launched a fierce counterattack!
In the 60th minute, in a counter-attack launched on the spot after a midfield break by Brazil, Robinho got a pass from Kaka at the edge of the penalty area, and first stopped and buckled past Gerrard, who pounced. Then, when he staggered, he stumbled and dodged the defense of Ferdinand, who rushed out of the penalty area!
Passing two players in a row in one fell swoop, it caused the England defence to become confused.
At this time, Adriano in front of him and Ronaldo on the left side were unguarded.
It's a pity that Robinho, who has been on the rise, has no intention of looking up to watch his teammates run. He flicked the ball to the right at the edge of the penalty area, and after avoiding the chasing Lampard, he picked up his right foot...... Knock on the door!
Robinho staggered past three men later, but the quality was not high, and the ball eventually grazed the post and went wide of the goal.
Robinho's overly sticky performance made his two teammates around him look very dissatisfied.
Pereira, who was on the sidelines, also looked very angry, and he called up Baptista and Oliveira directly from the bench, obviously ready to make some adjustments!
England had a two-goal lead, but they didn't immediately start defending passively.
After Robinho's shot, in an attack by the England team, Gerrard also came with a powerful shot from 35 meters away!
The suddenness of the shot and the eerie bounce in front of the goal were a huge test for Brazilian goalkeeper Dida.
The Brazilian goalkeeper flew sideways and couldn't touch the ball, but fortunately, the ball eventually grazed the far post and went wide!
It was also a relief to the Brazilians at the World Cup stadium in Cologne.
Soon, the Brazilian side played another counterattack.
After receiving the ball in the midfield, Kaka ran all the way to the front court at high speed and handed the ball to Xiao Luo.
Ronaldo shook off Frank Lampard's defence at the edge of the box and shot at goal, effectively tucking the ball into the left side of the box!
Adriano appeared in that position, and in the face of Ronaldo's pass, he directly raised his left foot and fired a low shot into the far corner!
However, his shot didn't hit the ground and the ball went wide again!
After this attack failed, Pereira also requested a substitution.
Oliveira and Baptista, who had just warmed up, were on the sidelines.
"Oh, it looks like Pereira is going to change two people in a row. Oliveira and Baptista are both attacking players who have excelled in La Liga. Pereira clearly wants to bring them on to step up the attack......"
Oliveira replaced Robinho, who was extremely active in the front line today, but missed numerous chances.
Baptista replaced midfielder Ze Roberto. Although this Brazilian beast debuted in a midfield position, he actually became famous because of his powerful attack power!
In the past two seasons, he has scored 20 and 18 goals in La Liga, respectively, and is very ferocious.
Therefore, after this substitution, the formation of the Brazilian team has also invisibly changed to 4132, which is a lineup that pays great attention to offense!
Baptista came on and was very active. He has a lot of range of movement, and he can be involved in defending at the back as well as being able to jump into the attack. It's no wonder he's known as the "Steven Gerrard of Brazil" in La Liga.
In the 66th minute, Baptista first managed to cut off Frank Lampard's pass to Beckham at the back. After that, he began to dribble the ball at high speed and run towards the front court.
Judging by the way he dribbles the ball, he doesn't know the traditional Brazilian players, but more like the hardcore players in Europe.
His dribbling style is very simple, basically it is a direct acceleration to change direction, and if necessary, he doesn't mind using his body to squeeze the opponent away!
In this way, Baptista almost in a very unreasonable way, all the way to the half of the England team!
Dribbling the ball from the back to the front of the opponent's penalty area, Baptista, who ran to the half, didn't seem to be tired at all, only to see him shake off Gerrard, who was making up for the defense, and directly sent the ball to the goal of the Brazilian team!
Fortunately, James in front of goal was very focused, and he made a side pounce to block the ball off the line.
In the ensuing corner kick, it was him again, who was only 1.83 meters tall, but he grabbed the header from the head of Gerrard, who was three centimeters taller than him.
However, this time the ball was topped up by him!
In the ensuing attack, Chen Xi also used a sudden long-range shot from the left side to create a threat.
The shot was sudden, and the power was great, and although the angle was not tricky, it still caused Dida to save the ball.
It's a pity that Rooney, who inserted the supplementary shot, was slightly half a beat slower, and the ball was destroyed by Lucio first.
The back and forth attacks of both sides on the field have never been able to rewrite the score.
It wasn't until the seventy-third minute of the game that this balance on the field was broken!
Kaka appeared on the right flank, and he broke through with the ball, which he actually knocked across to Ronaldo.
After passing the ball, Kaka went directly into the penalty area, and Xiao Luo also sent the ball back with a good understanding.
Just as Kaka was about to catch up with the ball, England centre-back John Terry rushed in and made a sliding tackle to shovel the ball away.
However, Kaka, who is also tall and long-legged, stabbed the ball away first after an acceleration, and he himself was put to the ground by Terry!
The referee on duty did not hesitate to blow the whistle in his mouth and pointed his finger twelve yards!
"Penalty! The referee awarded a penalty!! Paul Mortenson shouted in surprise.
The stands also erupted in boos from the English fans and cheers from the Brazilian fans.
After Kaka got up from the turf, he also celebrated with a fist in excitement, and then high-fived his teammates one by one.
The England players walked up to the referee and argued with him.
However, the referee's intention was clear, and he saw clearly that Terry did not touch the ball, but went straight to Kaka, which was not too much to give a penalty.
England had no choice but to accept the penalty.
It was Adriano who took the free-kick. Even though Xiao Luo and Kaka are good penalty kickers in the Brazilian team, Adriano, who wants to compete with Chen Xi for the top scorer, will not miss such an opportunity!
Adriano's penalty was simple, just like his usual shots, with a powerful left-footed shot!
Even though James in front of the goal judged the right direction, he still couldn't touch the ball!
"Ball...... Entered! Adriano!!! His powerful penalty made James helpless, and Brazil also tied the score at 1-2! Paul Mortensen reported the goal as a announcer.
However, at this time, the Brazilian fans in the stands of the Cologne World Cup stadium erupted in a huge cheer.
Although the Confederations Cup is regarded as a chicken rib by many countries, as fans of the football kingdom, Brazilian fans hope that their teams can win the championship every time they participate in a world-class competition...... This is the pride of the kingdom of football!
Therefore, they don't want their team to be swept out of the group stage, which is an absolute shame for them!
Now Adriano's penalty kick has pulled a point back and also gives them hope of equalising!
On the sidelines!
Pereira also waved his fist and motioned for the players to hurry back to their own half, after all, they were still behind!
On the field!
After the goal, Adriano only waved his fist on the spot, then rushed into the goal, hugged the ball, and walked back.
Of course, when he passed by Chen Xi's side, he didn't forget to cast a provocative look at Chen Xi. The meaning is obvious: I've got another goal back!
Chen Xi didn't take care of this second goods. Because he knows very well how stupid it is to compete with the second goods. Really fight them, they will drag you to the same level as them, and then beat you with their vast experience!
The game continues!
The England team, which was chased back a goal, was not affected by the goal just conceded, and still played at its own pace step by step.
However, the morale of the Brazilian team, who recovered a goal, was very high.
Their attacks were becoming more and more frenzied, and at this time, the lack of protection at the edge of the England penalty area was completely exposed by the continuous onslaught of Brazil's three attacking midfielders.
Before Eriksson could make adjustments, Brazil scored again!
It was a typical Brazilian attack!
Ronaldo retreated to the left side of the backfield to receive the ball, and after winning the ball, he passed it back to left-back Rafael Leao, who himself cut in at high speed.
Leao didn't stop the ball in the face of Ronaldo's pass, but instead crossed to Gilberto Silva.
Gilberto Silva took the ball past Gerrard and then tucked it into Baptista in front of him.
Baptista didn't take the ball either, but took advantage of the situation to play the ball in front of his right, and the ball went to Kaka's feet again.
The Brazilian team's continuous multi-foot passes allowed the ball to quickly transition from the back to the front.
Kaka took two steps with the ball, attracted the defence, and then sent the ball to the edge of the box.
Adriano was in that position with his back to Ferdinand, stepping on the ball with his left foot and ready to make a powerful shot that would force his signature turn around!
However, Ferdinand clearly knew Adriano's style very well, so he clung to Adriano behind him and put his hands on him so as not to give him a chance to turn.
Just when Adriano was at a loss, Xiao Luo came to answer.
Adriano didn't hesitate to knock the ball through!
In the face of Adriano's knockback ball, Xiao Luo put on a posture of shooting directly at the ball. After attracting Frank Lampard's block, he cleverly flicked the ball down the middle, skimmed away from Lampard's deft defence, and then picked up his right foot again!
This time it was a real shot, but Xiao Luo's shooting action also changed from a volley to a foot arch!
Xiao Luo's right foot hit the ball, and the ball obediently drew a wonderful arc in the air and flew towards the far corner!
Even though James in front of the goal was very attentive and made a save at the first time, he still couldn't prevent the ball from grazing his fingertips and getting into the goal!
Boom~~~ The fans of the Brazilian team, who did not have an advantage in the number of people at the scene, broke out into a huge cheer!
"Oh, the ball is in again! Ronaldinho! Brazil played all the way from the back to the edge of the England penalty area, where there was little decent resistance. After letting the Brazilian pass the ball calmly, it was obviously very dangerous. At this time, Ronaldo also reflected his value as the core of the Brazilian team! His shot made James only look at the ball and sigh! Brazil scored two goals in less than ten minutes after trailing by two goals. Reflect their powerful attack power! Of course, this also reflects the defensive problems of the England team. England's serious lack of defensive depth in midfield gave Brazil the opportunity to break through the midfield calmly, laying the groundwork for the goal conceded...... "Paul Mortensen was a little helpless after analysing the goal.
On the sidelines!
Pereira waved his hands excitedly again. For him, a draw means their team can at least secure a qualifying spot. Of course, with the fight not over yet, he has reason to start chasing a victory!
In front of the other coach's box, Eriksen was depressed.
Being chased twice in a row by the opponent in ten minutes is obviously very demoralizing.
In fact, when Pereira was replaced by Baptista, he thought about replacing himself with a pure midfielder to strengthen his defence. It's a pity that he hesitated and didn't know who to replace in Shuangde. This hesitation also made the opponent score a second goal!
After the score turned into a draw, Eriksen also knew he had to cut through the mess quickly. Otherwise, the crazy Brazilian team may be able to complete a big reversal!
So, he called Hargreaves from the bench.
On the field!
After helping the team tie the score, Ronaldo and his teammates could finally celebrate.
He gestured with both hands to "six" and rushed to the stands where the Brazilian fans were, enjoying the cheers of the fans.
With Ronaldo's form declining, Ronaldinho, known as Ronaldo Jr., has become the most charismatic star in the Brazilian team. Even Kaka, one of the most popular icons in European football today, can't compete with him.
While the Brazilians were celebrating wildly, the English were clearly uncomfortable.
It's an absolute shame to be chased twice in a row by the opponent in ten minutes!
Therefore, after the resumption of the game, England also launched an attack.
And the players of the Brazilian team were not satisfied with a draw, so the two sides played a wonderful offensive battle.
The first to attack the England team was Chen Xi!
After he got the ball on the left side, he made a gesture to the bottom, in fact, he went to the middle of the ball, accelerated to get rid of the entanglement between the two, and successfully cut inside!
Facing Baptista, who came over to make up for the defense, Chen Xi handed the ball to Rooney, who retreated at the edge of the penalty area.
Rooney leaned on Lucio with his back, directly acting as Chen Xi's wall, and making the ball back on Chen Xi's running route!
Chen Xi didn't hesitate at all, and shot angrily at the ball!
The shot was powerful and flew straight into the bottom left corner of the goal!
However, Dida was like a god this time, a side pounce that fell to the ground, and rubbed the ball with the tip of his right finger!
Although there was a tingling sensation in her fingertips, Dida was still happy!
Sure enough, after the ball touched his fingertips, it changed direction and flew directly out of the bottom line!
"Oh my God!! Edison's shot that almost went straight to the corner was actually saved by Dida. It's incredible! Paul Mortenson said depressedly.
Oh~~~~ The English fans in the stands also broke out into a sigh of regret.
And the Brazilian fans gave their own applause to their goalkeeper after a burst of exclamations!
After Chen Xi's shot was blocked, Eriksen also asked for a substitution.
It was defensive midfielder Hargreaves who came on and Frank Lampard who went down!
Yes, in the end, Eriksen chose to keep Gerrard. Because he knows that on the offensive end, the tacit understanding between Gerrard, Chen Xi and Owen is stronger, and he also hopes to rely on the connection between these three to make a difference in the offense!
After Hargreaves came on the field, he made up for the lack of defense in the midfield of the England team to a certain extent. But in the face of the repeated onslaughts of Ronaldo, Kaka and Baptista, the front of the England team's penalty area is still in the wind!
"Ronaldo shook off Hargreaves' defense and hit the goal!"
"Wow~~~ James made the right judgment this time, he saved the ball off the bottom line!"
......" Kaka took the ball on the left and he didn't pass it...... He cut inside, shook Gerrard, and wow, another dunk, slammed past Hargreaves and hit the goal with his left foot! ”
"It was just a little bit like Kaka's shot went just over the crossbar!"
...... "Ronaldo takes the ball from outside the penalty area and wants to hit the ...... behind England"
'John Terry pushed the ball out of the box...... The crisis has not been resolved, Baptista hit the door directly! ”
"Wow~~~ He couldn't hold the ball down and blasted the ball into the stands!"
…… Within five minutes, Brazil had several shots on the edge of England's penalty area.
Of course, with Ze Roberto off the field and Baptista focusing more on attack, Brazil's midfield defense is also a little weak!
When the game was about to enter the last five minutes, Gerrard also received Chen Xi's knock in the middle and knocked on the mountain!
But this time, Gerrard's shot angle was too positive, and he was directly knocked out of the penalty area by the Brazilian team's Dida double punch!
As the 90 minutes wore on, there was a growing expectation that the match would end in a draw.
"In fact, a draw is a good result for both sides. England can win the group thanks to this draw. Brazil, on the other hand, can squeeze out Mexico with this draw and reach the semifinals! As the top two in Group A are Argentina and Germany. They are also strong teams, so there doesn't seem to be a question of picking opponents between England and Brazil...... Paul Mortensen agrees that the two teams should be okay with this draw.
It's just that the players on both sides of the field don't think so!
Originally, when they came to Germany to participate in the Confederations Cup, most of the players on both sides valued the opportunity to play against strong opponents.
How often does the European champion play South America and the World Cup winner, and how often does it take for such a dialogue to happen?
Everyone cherishes such a hard-won opportunity, or rather, the players on both sides respect the opponent. Therefore, when the game came to an end and everyone's physical fitness declined, both sides still spared no effort on the field!
In the 87th minute, Hargreaves launched a counterattack with a long pass at the back!
The ball was accurately sent by him to Chen Xi on the left side, Chen Xi inserted at high speed and used his body to squeeze away Sisinho and catch up with the ball first!
However, Sisinho also stuck to Chen Xi's side, Chen Xi glanced back during the run and found that Ashley Cole was also plugged in behind him, so he directly got up with his left heel and knocked the ball to Ashley Cole!
In the face of Chen Xi's pass, Ashley Cole paid attention to the situation in the penalty area, and did not blindly cross the ball, but crossed the ball to the front of the penalty area!
Steven Gerrard was in that position, and he first took the opportunity to take the ball into the box and evade the opposition's defence. Then take advantage of the situation and shoot with your left foot!
Gerrard's left foot wasn't Gerrard's usual foot, so he didn't have much power on goal!
However, the ball still passed through the layers of defense in the penalty area very strangely and rolled directly to the far corner of the goal!
Dida, whose vision was blocked, didn't notice it until the ball passed through the crowd, and when it was time to make another save, it was too late.
However, at this time, Juan, the central defender of the Brazilian team, came to the goal like a god soldier and swept the ball out of the penalty area with a sliding tackle!
"Wow~~~ Gerrard's shot passed the Dida level, but was blocked by the opposing central defender. What a pity! Paul Mortenson said regretfully.
The England fans in the stands also sighed regretfully again.
Gerald also hugged his head regretfully. However, his regret did not last long, because Brazil had already counter-attacked, and he had to return to defend quickly.
It was Baptista who launched the counter-attack, and after winning the ball outside the box, he rushed towards England like a speeding tank!
This time, though, he didn't indulge in individual breakaways, and after attracting the defence, he distributed the ball to Ronaldo on the left.
Xiao Luo faced Baptista's pass, felt Gary Neville rushing from the side, ready to break the ball, he pretended not to know, but when Gary Neville saw the opportunity to break the ball, he cleverly stretched his leg to pick the ball, just let the ball avoid Gary Neville's foot, and he rushed towards the England team's penalty area with the ball!
"Wow~~~ Ronaldo passed Gary Neville with a light pick! England's backline is dangerous......" Paul Mortensen said with a slight urgency.
Indeed, after Ronaldo got past Gary Neville, England's right flank was already empty.
Even though Beckham is trying to chase back, he can't narrow the distance even a little bit!
Xiao Luo did not dribble the ball in a straight line, but struck diagonally towards the England team's penalty area!
Looking at Xiao Luo who was getting closer and closer, Ferdinand had to meet him. Even as a world-class central defender, he is not sure that he will be able to defend against this elf on the pitch!
Xiao Luo did not show any hesitation in the face of Ferdinand, only to see that almost every part of his body was shaking, and after dazzling Ferdinand, he made a sideways pass, in fact, with a twist of his ankle, the ball went in the direction of the baseline.
Ferdinand had reacted as quickly as possible, but his outstretched leg still couldn't touch the ball, so in order not to bring down Ronaldo, he had to retract his foot and prepare to chase back.
"Xiao Luo has passed another one, and it is dangerous!!" Paul Mortenson was so nervous that he almost broke the comment box in front of him.
After passing Ferdinand, Xiao Luo glanced at the situation in front of the goal, and did not hesitate to poke the ball into the middle with his right foot!
At this time, Oliveira and Adriano were already on the path of the ball!
Oliveira's outflanking at the front point was slightly slower by half a beat and failed to touch the ball, while Adriano at the back point was already ready to shoot and was ready to hit the goal!
At this moment, Terry appeared in the middle of Oliveira and Adriano, and he used a sliding tackle to get the ball first!
It was a very dangerous move, because his tackle could turn into a brilliant "tackle" at any moment, and then score a "beautiful" own goal!
However, Terry was right this time, and he shoveled the ball right towards James in the middle of the goal.
The ball hit James and landed in front of him.
James' second reaction was quick, he didn't choose to pounce on the ball, but a big foot laterally drove the ball out of the box!
Sure enough, as soon as James kicked the ball out, Oliveira and Adriano tackled towards him. If he chooses to save the ball, he will most likely get kicked, and if he drives the ball forward, the ball may bounce off them and into the goal!
"Wow~~~ Terry has made a meritorious service!! He made a brave tackle in front of goal and saved a must-go shot! Paul Mortenson exclaimed excitedly.
The England fans in the stands also gave John Terry a round of applause after coming out in shock.
Brazilians, meanwhile, are lamented.
Especially Xiao Luo, who has just completed a series of beautiful passes, his wonderful assist was not turned into a goal by his teammates, which is obviously a very depressing thing!
After the Brazilian team finished this attack, the 90 minutes of regular time of the game were almost gone. Fourth, officials also began to adjust the electronic cards in stoppage time on the sidelines.
At this time, the England team launched what is very likely to be the last attack of this game!
England used successive passes to get the ball up front.
The ball first reached the feet of David Beckham on the right, who was set to take the ball from outside the box. But after seeing what was going on in the box, he gave up on that idea and crossed the ball to Gerrard's feet.
As soon as Gerrard got the ball, Baptista also defended it.
Gerrard didn't break blindly and put the ball back.
Hargreaves also came to the front at this time, and after receiving Gerrard's pass, he distributed the ball to Chen Xi on the left side.
Because of Gilberto Silva's close defense by his side, Chen Xi did not wait for the ball there, but chose to take the initiative to pick up.
Even so, Gilberto Silva still followed Chen Xi closely like a personal bodyguard!
Faced with this nasty kraft candy, Chen Xi is ready to teach him a lesson!
I saw that he stretched out his left foot and seemed to stop the ball, but in fact, when the ball came, his left foot rubbed the ball to the ball place quickly and quickly!
The ball was picked up by Chen Xi like this~ teased, and the reaction was great!
The ball, which was originally attached to the turf, jumped violently, and flew towards Chen Xi's back with a forward trend!
Gilberto Silva obviously didn't expect Chen Xi to do this, and when he was still preparing to keep up with Chen Xi's pace and prevent him from turning around, he found that Chen Xi had already begun to turn around from the right side!
He was just about to stop Chen Xi from turning around, but he found that Bai Huahua's ball flew towards him!
So he gave up the idea of blocking Chen Xi and was ready to block the ball!
However, Chen Xi's rubbing of the ball this time seemed to have been carefully calculated, and it just crossed the head of Gilberto Silva, who jumped slightly!
"Wow~~~ Unbelievable way to pass people! Edison rubbed the ball and then quickly spun around, and the ball obediently went over Gilberto Silva's head! Could it be that Edison was holding a remote control for the ball? Paul Mortenson exclaimed excitedly.
The English fans in the stands couldn't help but applaud Chen Xi's pass.
Even Brazilian fans have to be impressed by Chen Xi's extraordinary imagination this time!
At this time, Chen Xi was in no mood to enjoy the applause of the fans. Because he had a lot of power to rub the ball just now, he still couldn't catch the ball, and Cicinho was already rushing towards the ball!
It was still a race between the two, and the ball was still in the direction of Sicinho, and it seemed that Chen Xi was in a losing position.
It's just that Chen Xi once again proved one point, that is, in the competition of speed, he will never be the one who suffers!
At the last moment of the game, everyone's physical fitness was already significantly reduced, but Chen Xi was still able to increase his speed to the extreme at this time!
In the stunned situation of Sicinho, it was like a strong wind rushing in front of him, stabbing the ball first!
The ball crossed over from the left side of Sicinho, and Chen Xi flashed and passed Sicineo from the other side!
"Wow~~~ What a domineering speed!! Edison is like a race car in Formula 1, unstoppable! He used another pick to pass the ball past Siciño! Brazil's backline is going to suffer! ”
The England fans in the stands obviously also know what will happen when Chen Xi hits with all his strength and passes two people in a row!
So, they all got up from their seats and opened their eyes wide for fear of missing any of the wonderful pictures!
This time he poked the ball, Chen Xi's strength was very good, so he quickly caught up with the ball.
After passing Cicinho, Brazil's right flank was already empty.
However, Chen Xi did not indulge in the emptiness here, but dribbled diagonally towards the crowded penalty area!
The situation at this time is extremely similar to Xiao Luo's situation just now!
Chen Xi and Xiao Luo are both masters of the arts, and they know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to go to the tiger mountains! ――
PS: The lid wants to finish writing this game! But it's almost twelve o'clock, and I haven't finished writing yet.
So let's send the lid up first, wait for the next writing to finish, complete it and send it up!
Owen's goal left the Brazilian players in despair.
At half-time, they learned that in the other match, Mexico led 1-0. And, according to their understanding, the Mexican team is basically not a big problem to win this team.
Well, if they lose this game, they will have the same points as Mexico. The key depends on the winning goals of both sides!
Mexico only lost one game to England, where they will win the game against their own team. In this way, the Brazilian team obviously suffered a lot in terms of winning goals.
In their opinion, if they want to advance to the next round, they must at least tie the score of this game!
So, after the restart, the Brazilian team, which was fighting for qualification, launched a fierce counterattack!
In the 60th minute, in a counter-attack launched on the spot after a midfield break by Brazil, Robinho got a pass from Kaka at the edge of the penalty area, and first stopped and buckled past Gerrard, who pounced. Then, when he staggered, he stumbled and dodged the defense of Ferdinand, who rushed out of the penalty area!
Passing two players in a row in one fell swoop, it caused the England defence to become confused.
At this time, Adriano in front of him and Ronaldo on the left side were unguarded.
It's a pity that Robinho, who has been on the rise, has no intention of looking up to watch his teammates run. He flicked the ball to the right at the edge of the penalty area, and after avoiding the chasing Lampard, he picked up his right foot...... Knock on the door!
Robinho staggered past three men later, but the quality was not high, and the ball eventually grazed the post and went wide of the goal.
Robinho's overly sticky performance made his two teammates around him look very dissatisfied.
Pereira, who was on the sidelines, also looked very angry, and he called up Baptista and Oliveira directly from the bench, obviously ready to make some adjustments!
England had a two-goal lead, but they didn't immediately start defending passively.
After Robinho's shot, in an attack by the England team, Gerrard also came with a powerful shot from 35 meters away!
The suddenness of the shot and the eerie bounce in front of the goal were a huge test for Brazilian goalkeeper Dida.
The Brazilian goalkeeper flew sideways and couldn't touch the ball, but fortunately, the ball eventually grazed the far post and went wide!
It was also a relief to the Brazilians at the World Cup stadium in Cologne.
Soon, the Brazilian side played another counterattack.
After receiving the ball in the midfield, Kaka ran all the way to the front court at high speed and handed the ball to Xiao Luo.
Ronaldo shook off Frank Lampard's defence at the edge of the box and shot at goal, effectively tucking the ball into the left side of the box!
Adriano appeared in that position, and in the face of Ronaldo's pass, he directly raised his left foot and fired a low shot into the far corner!
However, his shot didn't hit the ground and the ball went wide again!
After this attack failed, Pereira also requested a substitution.
Oliveira and Baptista, who had just warmed up, were on the sidelines.
"Oh, it looks like Pereira is going to change two people in a row. Oliveira and Baptista are both attacking players who have excelled in La Liga. Pereira clearly wants to bring them on to step up the attack......"
Oliveira replaced Robinho, who was extremely active in the front line today, but missed numerous chances.
Baptista replaced midfielder Ze Roberto. Although this Brazilian beast debuted in a midfield position, he actually became famous because of his powerful attack power!
In the past two seasons, he has scored 20 and 18 goals in La Liga, respectively, and is very ferocious.
Therefore, after this substitution, the formation of the Brazilian team has also invisibly changed to 4132, which is a lineup that pays great attention to offense!
Baptista came on and was very active. He has a lot of range of movement, and he can be involved in defending at the back as well as being able to jump into the attack. It's no wonder he's known as the "Steven Gerrard of Brazil" in La Liga.
In the 66th minute, Baptista first managed to cut off Frank Lampard's pass to Beckham at the back. After that, he began to dribble the ball at high speed and run towards the front court.
Judging by the way he dribbles the ball, he doesn't know the traditional Brazilian players, but more like the hardcore players in Europe.
His dribbling style is very simple, basically it is a direct acceleration to change direction, and if necessary, he doesn't mind using his body to squeeze the opponent away!
In this way, Baptista almost in a very unreasonable way, all the way to the half of the England team!
Dribbling the ball from the back to the front of the opponent's penalty area, Baptista, who ran to the half, didn't seem to be tired at all, only to see him shake off Gerrard, who was making up for the defense, and directly sent the ball to the goal of the Brazilian team!
Fortunately, James in front of goal was very focused, and he made a side pounce to block the ball off the line.
(To be continued)
