Portugal is arrogant, and such arrogance is relative, because their opponent is a weak Chinese team.

So even if they knew that Qin Xiong was a huge threat, they wouldn't really make a big fuss about weakening the offense to strengthen the defense.

When Mexico's full-backs Pineda and Perez can frequently retreat to the midfield to limit Qin Xiong's possession and break through the space, will Portugal's coach Scolari dare to say to Figo and Ronaldo: "You must return to the half court to strengthen the protection of the midfield in defense, especially for Qin Xiong to limit his play"?

No way!

Therefore, although the Chinese team is under the indiscriminate bombardment of the Portuguese team, as long as there is a counterattack opportunity, the Chinese team's counterattack will be much better than the previous game.

At the same time, the Chinese team's position is definitely more resolute than the previous game.

Qin Xiong's position also changed.

The midfield fed him with shells, and the strikers covered for him.

In the attack, Qin Xiong no longer plays an organizational role, he just takes care of the two tasks of advancing and finishing!

When the Chinese team's goal ahead of Portugal was born, all the Chinese fans who followed this game all over the world went crazy with excitement!

Not only because the Chinese team took the lead in scoring a goal, but also because Qin Xiong alone disrupted and destroyed the Portuguese defense!

This is the play of a superstar, the strength of a superstar!

The teammates of the Chinese team rushed forward to gather around Qin Xiong, they were very inconspicuous, they were unknown characters in the World Cup, but they held up the stage for Qin Xiong to play!

"The Chinese team has scored! Qin Xiong scored the most exciting individual goal since the opening of the World Cup!

He received a long pass from Zhao Junzhe on the wing, and it looked like Zhao Junzhe must have passed big, but Qin Xiong did not let the ball go out of the sideline with his superb individual ability. And took advantage of the opportunity to head the ball directly behind the full-back Miguel. Then he overtook Miguel with his own super-fast speed around the outside line outside the sideline. Picking up the ball from outside the box close to the bottom line, he evaded Mela's defence, and headed the ball into the middle of the box with a header in front of Carvalho, and finally rounded Costinha to catch up with the ball and complete a beautiful volley!

It's so exciting, it's definitely a classic goal!

What excites us is that the Chinese team is now ahead of the Portuguese team, will a miracle happen?

Will we be able to maintain the lead until full-time?

This goal stimulated the confidence of the Chinese team, and I hope they will continue to defend well in the future and not give Portugal any chance! ”

After the Chinese team scored, there was not much time left in the first half. Qin Xiong and Zhang Pengfei both retreated to the backcourt to participate in the defense.

Despite the reluctance of the Portuguese team, the first half ended after Deco's long-range shot was blocked by Liu Yunfei.

To the surprise of the whole world, the Chinese team actually took the lead in the first half of the battle against Portugal.

1:0.

Walking into the dressing room, Alihan praised the performance of the whole team, and then encouraged everyone not to let up, follow the team's tactical arrangements, and try to maintain the standard of the first half in the second half.

Returning to the stadium in the second half, the Chinese team continued the tactics of the first half. The midfield and backfield are intensively defended, and the counterattack relies on Qin Xiong and Zhang Pengfei.

The Portuguese team was like an enraged beast. As soon as they came up, they pulled up the pace of the game, and when dealing with the counterattack of the Chinese team, they simply adopted foul tactics!

From the midfield, tactical fouls were used to delay the speed of the Chinese team's counterattack.

This they did very effectively, which greatly reduced the efficiency of the Chinese team's counterattack.

Qin Xiong was also repeatedly trying to break through individually, but was thwarted by his opponent's direct use of actions other than technical moves.

In the 54th minute of the game, Maniche received a yellow card.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Costinha received a yellow card.

When both midfielders were booked, Portugal didn't stop there.

Replaced by a full-back who also came up to foul, and the double back retreated to make up for the penalty area.

Portugal's attack began to become more violent.

In the 71st minute of the game, Figo broke through on the right side and crossed the bottom, and Ronaldo Ronaldo jumped high with amazing bounce power at the back point, and pressed Xu Yun's header to hit the goal, but the football hit the crossbar and popped up!

Three minutes later, Deco's long-range shot from outside the penalty area was blocked by Liu Yi with a sliding tackle, Shao Jiayi took the ball from the side and wanted to find Qin Xiong, but his pass was not accurate enough, Qin Xiong was forced to transfer the line in the forward start, and finally Valente took the first step to stop the ball with his chest.

After Valente stopped the ball, he rushed forward with the ball directly, sprinted along the side, and crossed the ball directly at 45 degrees on the side, Pauletta finally got a chance to head the goal in the penalty area, he leaned forward and pushed the ball to the bottom left corner of the goal with his head, Liu Yunfei quickly moved sideways and kicked the ground and flew to save, blocking the ball with one hand.

But Cristiano Ronaldo, who followed up in the small penalty area, kicked the ball directly into the empty goal without interference in front of the goal!

"Portugal equalised! The scorer is Cristiano Ronaldo!

After a long period of stormy bombardment, Portugal finally scored, it can be said that the Portuguese team in the second half was a misplaced 442 formation, Ronaldo's threat in the penalty area increased rapidly, and the Chinese team did not react in time.

This is where we lag behind Europe.

In terms of technique and tactics, the European powerhouses that adapt to the situation can be described as ever-changing, while the Chinese team is too rigid and sluggish.

The score became 1:1, and there were nearly 20 minutes left in the game, can the Chinese team create a miracle?

In recent times, the quality of the Chinese team's counterattack has been declining, Qin Xiong suffered frequent targeted fouls from opponents in the second game in a row, and we can see his efforts, and even the live broadcast camera frequently shows his blood-stained calf. ”

Yes, Qin Xiong's calves had broken skin, staining small pieces of white socks red.

But he didn't care about any of that.

After the resumption of the game, the situation of the Chinese team is still very bad.

However, the backfield players of the Portuguese team were afraid of eating cards, and Qin Xiong still struggled to get a counterattack opportunity in the 86th minute of the game.

In the case that the quality of the Portuguese team's last kick cannot be guaranteed, they are also afraid of being defeated by the Chinese team.

So when Qin Xiong pushed forward smoothly in the counterattack, the defenders of the Portuguese team were a little frightened.

Most of their players were staring at Qin Xiong.

Qin Xiong knew that he couldn't rush over, and after looking at Zhang Pengfei's position, Qin Xiong chose to shoot the ball to the side, and the football flew to the left side where Shao Jiayi was.

Shao Jiayi took the ball to the side front, and then crossed from 45 degrees.

Qin Xiong was running to the back of the goal, and the speed was extremely fast, but after seeing Shao Jiayi's cross, he secretly screamed in his heart.

Because Shao Jiayi's cross will land behind him as he runs.

So he stopped immediately, and then in desperation, he could only shoot with an upside-down golden hook!

He struggled to control the footwork and angle of his shots.

After he made a barb shot, the audience was amazed.

Bang!

Qin Xiong fell to the ground after shooting, he immediately looked back, the football was out of the bottom line, and there was still a meter away from the goal.

He closed his eyes with some regret, then got up and ran towards the backfield. (To be continued......)
