Chapter 4 Victory led by Lin Quan, Spain defeated Uruguay 5:1!

Seeing that Uruguay was scored three goals by Spain in less than half an hour, the expressions of the Brazilian players watching the game from the sidelines became solemn.

It is also a South American team, and Brazil has played against Uruguay a lot.

So they know very well about Uruguay's strength.

Uruguay are currently in the top three in South America, behind Brazil and Argentina.

And against these two teams, Uruguay is not without the strength to fight.

In the Copa America two years ago, Uruguay eliminated Argentina to reach the final and win the championship.

But now, the South American champions have been beaten all over the field by Spain.

This made the hearts of the Brazilian players very shocked:

How strong is Spain?

Gollum!

I don't know who swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously, it seems that they can feel the oppression brought to them by Spain even if they don't play!

With three goals down, the mentality of Uruguay's players is on the verge of collapse.

Their mentality became impatient, and even their movements on the field became bigger than before.

Referee Yuichi Nishimura from Japan also seemed to sympathize with Uruguay who were three goals behind, and were biased in some of the decisions.

In the 35th minute, Alba was hit by Rodriguez to hide his face and fell to the ground, but the referee did not indicate it.

Uruguay continued to attack, and Ramos was furious and took Ramirez down.

The Japanese referee was not blind at this time, and ran over to show a yellow card to the Real Madrid defender.

Ramos was angry, waving his fists to reason with the referee.

His teammates were afraid that he would be sent off by the referee if he lost his temper, so they quickly pulled him back.

However, Sergio Busquets, Xavi and others were 'friendly' and discussed with the referee for a while.

The referee insisted on the award, believing that there was no objection to the yellow card, and as for the previous foul by the Uruguayan team, he avoided talking about it.

The Uruguayans were awarded a well-placed free-kick and they waited for Spain and the referee to settle their theories before Suarez took the free-kick.

Suarez's footwork was good, as he lobbed the ball into the box and pinpointedly found Edinson Cavani, another Uruguayan striker.

The latter's header from seven yards in front of goal was confiscated by a focused Casillas.

Towards the end of the first half, it began to rain lightly.

The players on both sides had to fight in the rain, but fortunately it was not particularly heavy and there was no standing water on the pitch, so the impact on them was not so great!

At halftime, the rain slowly became heavier.

By the time the second half started, there was already some standing water on the pitch.

The water on the pitch has affected Spain's ground attack a lot.

Uruguay, on the other hand, took the opportunity to launch a counter-offensive and wanted to seize the opportunity to rewrite the scoreline.

Unlike Spain, which takes the technical flow, they do not rely on ground propulsion, and if the ground is not good, it is okay to play long passes and hang in the air!

In the 64th minute of the game, Uruguay made a long pass from the back and found striker Suarez.

Facing Pique, who was defending him, Suarez deceived Pique with a feint.

As he was about to enter the box, Pique pulled him from behind and brought him down outside the box.

The referee gave Pique a yellow card and awarded Uruguay a free-kick in a very good position.

Suarez took a free-kick from a similar position in the first half, and on that occasion he opted to lob into the box in search of a team-mate.

This time, after looking up at Casillas' position, he chose to hit the door directly.

The ball was played with a high quality, and the ball made a beautiful arc in the air and went straight to the top right corner of the goal.

Casillas suffered from being too short to make a save and could only watch the ball go into the net.

Uruguay took advantage of a free-kick and Suarez pulled a goal back.

The score became 3:1!

After the goal, Suarez proudly bared his white teeth at Pique, seemingly in response to the opponent's pre-match provocation.

In this match, he resisted the urge to bite and instead used his excellent footwork to teach his opponent a lesson, which made Suarez very proud.

"Just kick it like that!"

"There is still hope for Uruguay!"

"That's right, Spain is technological, and the rain affects them more than Uruguay!"

The Brazilian players in the audience who originally thought that Uruguay had been cold were all in high spirits after seeing this goal.

They thought they had found a weakness in Spain, and it made them excited.

"It's a pity we can't control the weather, otherwise, it would have been nice to have another rain when we play Spain!"

The Brazilian felt that Uruguay could turn the tide with the rain, and the Uruguayan thought so.

Now that the rain is getting heavier, there are more and more places of water on the lawn.

Spain's passing errors rate began to increase, and no matter how good the technique at the feet was, it could not be used in this situation.

Therefore, the more complex the tactic, the less powerful it is.

On the contrary, their tactics of long passing and hanging and bottom cross are more simple and effective.

As a result, from the moment the goal was scored, Uruguay's attack gradually became fierce, and it could even pose a threat to Spain's goal often.

Seeing that the situation is becoming more and more passive, and the team has made mistakes again and again due to the problem of water on the ground.

If you continue like this, you will still be scored by the opponent.

Lin Quan knew that he was going to stand up.

He retreated from the front again and came to the front of the penalty area to participate in the defense.

With him leading, the rest of Spain's players also retreated, compressing the Uruguayan's attacking space.

When the number of defenders inside and outside the Spanish box increased, Uruguay's three-board axe was a bit weak.

Neither Cavani nor Suarez are muscular men like Drogba, they have a lot of impact, but they are not strong in the box.

Especially when Spain's tall defender Martinez often retreats to defend in the penalty area, they struggle to gain the upper hand in one-on-one scrambles.

After Cavani was restrained, Suarez's threat increased.

Compared to Cavani, Suarez has less speed and explosiveness.

But he has a very good sense of smell and a very good sense of smell, and he has excellent physical fitness and skill at his feet.

Another characteristic of this guy is that he can always find all kinds of convenient ways to put football into the goal in a reasonable or unreasonable way.

In 2013, Su Ya was not the strongest, and when he transferred to Barcelona and Messi Neymar to form the MSN combination, people could really see his horror.

In the 69th minute, Suarez's shot from Alba went just wide of the post.

In the 73rd minute, he received a pass from a team-mate at the top of the penalty area, and when everyone thought he would stop the ball with his chest and then look for an opportunity to shoot.

Suarez chose to squat slightly and hit the goal with a header directly on the spot.

It was an unconventional choice, as he was almost 20 metres away from goal, a rare option to hit with a header at such a distance.

But because of this, this header was very sudden, which caught the goalkeeper a little off guard.

Casillas' reaction was already quick, making a save almost instantly from the opponent's header.

But he was still half a beat slower and didn't touch the football at all.

Suarez and the Uruguayan fans were almost ready to celebrate, only to bang and the ball hit the crossbar and bounce off.

There were bursts of sighs from the scene, and the Uruguayan fans were extremely disappointed.

What luck the Spaniards had!

Lin Quan realized that the team was in danger and Suarez's form was already up.

If he continues to play unscrupulously like this, he may be able to score right away.

Moreover, Diego Forlan on the sidelines has already warmed up and is ready to play, and once Forlan also comes on the pitch and allows the Uruguayans to form a front trident, Spain's defense will be even more difficult.

So, he began to take the initiative to ask for the ball, and let the ball be at his feet more.

His team-mates trusted him, and as soon as Casillas drove the ball away, Alba handed it to Lin Quan.

Lin Quan attacked from the second half of his own side with the ball, and Suarez appeared in front of him for the first time.

Suarez, who is getting better and better, is full of self-confidence at this time.

He seemed to want to snatch the ball from Lin Quan's feet and finish another shot.

Lin Quan saw that Suarez was in a hurry, and estimated that he was selling a flaw, so that the other party took the initiative to stretch his feet.

The innocent Su Ya knew the opponent's careful thinking, he thought that Lin Quan had made a mistake when he saw this, and decisively stepped out to break the ball.

It's just that after he made a move, Suarez felt that something was not quite right:

Hey, why is the ball missing?

Lin Quan turned around with a pull ball, brushed past Suarez, and quickly struck towards Uruguay's half.

Before Lin Quan launched the attack, he had already gestured to his teammates.

Spain's midfield teammates are speeding up at the moment towards Uruguay's half.

When the Uruguayan players saw Spain's posture, they all smelled danger.

"Stop him!"

The two players immediately rushed towards Lin Quan, but before they could form a trap, Lin Quan had already passed the ball to his teammates.

The player who marked Cesc Fabregas went to cover Lin Quan, leaving him open and unguarded.

Lin Quan's pass was just right, and Xiaofa easily stopped the ball without much effort.

Well passed!

Xiaofa comfortably received Lin Quan's pass and secretly praised it in his heart.

The ability to pass the ball with such the right strength in heavy rain and water on the field is evident in this passing skill.

Because Lin Quan's pass was very good, he easily stopped the ball while still having free time to observe the running position of his teammates and the defensive position of the opponent.

Pedro is suspected to be on the offside line and could fall into an offside trap if he passes to him.

Andres Iniesta is a little worse in position, but there are no defenders within two metres of him and he can try to pass the ball to him.

The opportunity was fleeting, and when he thought of this, Xiaofa had already picked up his thighs and kicked the ball heavily.

The ball flew past Uruguay's midfield and into the edge of the opposition's penalty area, just in time for Andres Iniesta to arrive at the perfect time.

Andres Iniesta broke forward with the ball, and a beautiful croquette beat the opposition defender and got a chance to go on a single shot.

Facing the Uruguayan goalkeeper, Iniesta opted to push the far corner.

The ball was played very trickily, Juan stretched his hands as much as he could, trying to expand the blocking area, but still couldn't touch the ball.

With a bang, the ball hit the post, but it was the inside post that bounced off the net.

The score on the field became 4:1!

Uruguay, who had just recovered a goal, thought that they could take advantage of the situation to narrow the score gap, but they did not expect to be smothered by the opponent again.

After this goal, the Uruguayan side really had no chance.

By the time Spain finished celebrating, the clock was in the 77th minute.

Time is running out for them!

After the goal, Spain opted for a substitution.

Juan Mata came on for Pedro, while Cazorla came on for Xavi.

At Harvey's age, he has played for more than 70 minutes, which is already considered an overdue service.

Such a veteran should give him some time to rest.

Fortunately, after this tough battle against Uruguay, the next two games were relatively easy.

Harvey has plenty of time to recover!

After the substitution, Bosque sat in the coach's seat, humming a little song and leaning on the back of the chair, watching the game on the field with appreciative eyes.

With a three-goal lead, Lin Quan is still on the field, and there are only ten minutes left in the game, can this victory still fly?

The rain became heavier and heavier, and the water on the course was getting more and more.

This is too restrictive for Spain's style of play to penetrate on the ground.

So in the last ten minutes of the game, Lin Quan began to consciously increase the number of high ball crosses, allowing his teammates to go to the penalty area to grab the header.

Ramos, who had come close to scoring a hat-trick with a header in a national team match, was eager to take the shot.

Whenever there is an opportunity for a set-piece, he will rush into the opposition penalty area and actively look for opportunities to head the ball into the goal.

Seeing Ramos so positive, Lin Quan didn't let him run in vain.

In the 83rd minute, Spain got a corner kick opportunity.

Pique and Martinez covered Ramos, who was ambushed at the back post, and deliberately ran forward.

The two of them are two of the tallest players in the Spanish squad, with the Uruguayan defenders being the most closely guarded.

Seeing the two of them running forward, they both thought that the other party would pass the ball to the front point, so they also ran.

In this way, the space in the restricted area was suddenly opened up a lot.

Now is the time!

Lin Quan immediately sent the ball back to the back post, and after Ramos shook off the defender, he leaped to the top and headed the ball into the Uruguayan goal.

5:1!

Ramos was excited after the goal, and subconsciously wanted to take off his shirt, but halfway through it, he thought he had a yellow card on him......

So he didn't care, and rushed straight to Lin Quan, signaling Lin Quan to hit his chest to celebrate.

If this goal can be scored, Lin Quan will share half of the credit.

Lin Quan didn't think much about it, jumped up hard, and collided with Ramos in the air.

With a thud, Ramos sat down on the ground.

He looked at Lin Quan with a shocked expression:

Good boy, he has a lot of strength!

I can't see this small body at all!

Not to mention Ramos, the rest of Spain's teammates were also very surprised when they saw it.

Lin Quan is ten centimeters shorter than Ramos, and he looks a head shorter.

I thought that the two collided, and it was Lin Quan who suffered.

Unexpectedly, it was him who knocked Ramos down!

"Haha, it's not a small tank trained in the Bundesliga, you have physical confrontation ability, I think you can play in the Premier League!"

Pique, who played briefly at Manchester United, spoke as he reached out and pulled Ramos up.

David Silva, who plays for Manchester City, affirmed:

"Well, I can play in the Premier League with this body, and Lin is even more fine!"
