Ooh!

Inside the Bay Stadium, a loud sigh resounded in the night sky.

Pickford spread his arms and locked across the river to block B-Fernandes' inevitable shot.

It was an attack from the back of Portugal and a long ball went straight to Fernandes in front.

Maguire, who lacked athleticism, became a target for opponents.

"Bellingham, pay attention to the longitudinal protection of the defensive line!"

Southgate waved his right hand and commanded his team to fight.

Maguire is a traditional tall centre-back, slow to move and easily caught in the space behind opponents.

This requires the lower back to form protection in front of him.

Bellingham, who plays as a central midfielder, has contributed at both ends of the pitch.

With a little bit of unleashing his offensive ability, he began to ignore the defense.

Southgate reminded him that the focus of this game is to drop back more and form a protective shield in front of the centre-backs.

Just now, B Fei used the space between the two defensive lines to complete a 1v1 attack on Maguire and form a shot.

Portugal attacked from a corner and was cleared by Maguire's header.

After the opening, Portugal used a dual-core drive on the right to wear down their opponents.

England had no choice but to sacrifice Bellingham's back-to-back attack in exchange for defending on the left.

In the 20th minute, the ball was passed to the feet of B Fei again.

After Diogo Dalot drew on the edge to draw in defence, Fernandes once again faced Maguire directly.

Bellingham's timely defense forced B Fee to the bottom line and could not cross.

In desperation, B Fei chose to kick the ball directly on the defender, bounce off the baseline, and get a corner kick opportunity.

Just as B. Silva was walking towards the corner, B. Fernandes made a gesture of dissatisfaction with him.

B Fei believes that when he was surrounded just now, he should take the initiative to come over to answer and avoid being trapped.

However, B-Silva believes that the ball should be returned to himself early and then moved to the weak side, rather than burying his head inside.

After a brief argument, Portugal took a corner, and the first point was still headed by England.

John Stones' header clears the ball and Rice from outside the box crosses to the left and Rossi unloads the ball smoothly.

Although the ball was still in the England half, as the core of the attack, Rossi did not have any interference when he took the ball, which is enough to show that the Grape team was negligent in counter-attacking and pressing.

And in this position, it is Ruben Neves' defensive area.

When the Portuguese midfielder reacted, the ball had already been tucked into Kane by Rossi up front.

"Return to defense, pay attention to breakthrough!"

Portugal coach Alexis Sanchez screamed desperately.

How can 38-year-old centre-back Pepe withstand the onslaught of the Premier League's top scorer in the absence of protection in front of him?

Drip!

Pepe scrambled behind him, bumped into Kane, was whistled for a defensive foul and received a yellow card.

"Eyes, where are the eyes?"

The angry warrior monk Pepe pointed to his eyes and reminded his teammates.

"Bernardo is taking a corner, you have to fill his place!"

Revealing a timid Ruben Neves, he nodded resignedly.

England free-kick up front.

Rossi stood in front of the ball and the Portuguese player's heart raced.

The "full moon scimitar" of the French team was still yesterday, and I didn't dare to be careless.

Drip!

run up

Shot!

The ball arcs and spins towards the left side of the goal after going over the wall.

Goalkeeper Diogo slammed the ball hard, and after holding the ball lightly with his backhand, it smashed into the crossbar and bounced off the bottom line.

After falling to the ground, he rolled a few laps on the turf, got up and roared with his fist.

Being able to save Rossi's high-quality free-kick is a sudden burst of confidence and satisfaction for a goalkeeper.

As if to say, I did it, I stopped Rosie!

Luke Shaw whips in a corner and the box is in turmoil, and Maguire pushes Pepe hard to head the ball towards goal.

It's a pity that the top position is too positive, and it is picked up by the goalkeeper with both hands.

I thought that England's attack was just a coincidence, so I didn't pay too much attention to it, and let the defender Ruben Neves pay more attention to remedy.

But three minutes later, Portugal almost paid the price for their carelessness.

Bellingham dribbled the ball across half court and distributed it to Rossi.

Rossi didn't push along the flanks and cut inside to the middle before crossing to the right.

The same is to transfer the ball, England can move the ball to the other side through the cooperation of the ground.

Portugal coach Alexis Sanchez was very unhappy about this, and the interception in the middle was useless.

The midfielder not only failed to intercept the passing route, but also slowed down by half a beat in the subsequent defensive build-up.

Marcus Rashford took advantage of the fact that the defense was too late to break through the baseline.

Otavio's running ability is outstanding, and he can be in close proximity to the ball carrier in time.

However, the positional sense and pressure on the ball carrier in defence were not enough, giving Rashford room to pick up.

For example, Rossi's Real Madrid teammate Toni is the same type as Otavio in terms of position and technical characteristics.

However, Kroos has an excellent positional sense when defending, blocking the ball-carrier's dangerous passing lanes and pressing them to slow down the opposition's counter-attack.

[Okay, Rashford!] 】

[Bulge in!] 】

[Pass the ball into the penalty area!] 】

[Kane's header!] 】

Ooh!

With the sound of iron, the ball crossed the goalkeeper's ten fingers and smashed the upper edge of the crossbar, popping off the bottom line.

[Oh, it's a pity! 】

[The Portuguese team escaped! 】

[This game seems to be the Portuguese team's attack, open and close! ] 】

[But England's counterattack is more efficient and deadly!] 】

The 38-year-old Pepe is not only the captain of the field, but also the backbone of the defense.

He was very unhappy with the team's overall defense.

From the midfielders to the defenders, there is too much space for Rashford to get the ball.

"What about attention? Where have they gone! ”

"Oppression, oppression, don't let them take a step forward!"

Pepe is not only under pressure from the defensive line, but also with the responsibility of captaincy.

What tired him the most was that his teammates didn't pay attention to his words.

After Cristiano Ronaldo gradually withdrew from the starting line-up, there has been a strange atmosphere in the team's dressing room.

Who's the boss in the end.

In terms of seniority, the 38-year-old centre-back Pepe is the best and has won three Champions League titles at Real Madrid in his club career.

In terms of strength, the core of the midfield B seat and B fee of the Manchester City duo are the thighs that the team will rely on in the future.

In terms of potential, there are European golden boy Felix in the past, and there are strong newcomers such as Ramos and Rafael Leao.

The whole Portuguese team wants to prove that they are better than Cristiano Ronaldo.

In the 32nd minute, Portugal shifted the attack to the left flank, and after Felix inserted it into the ribs, he received a through ball from his teammate and drove into the penalty area.

Faced with the attacking goalkeeper, Felix did not pass to Ramos, who was in a better position, but chose to play himself into the near corner.

Pickford squatted down quickly and pounced the ball to the touchline for Kyle Walker.

Ramos pointed angrily and bewilderedly in front of him, wondering why Felix hadn't passed the ball at the time.

Wouldn't it be better to be in your own position?

Just when the Portuguese team was still complaining about the attack just now, England launched a counterattack.

Marcus Rashford received the ball and began to rush towards the opposition half.

At this point, Otavio couldn't get close to Rashford in time.

Defender Ruben Neves was repeatedly pulled by Kane's running and was unable to keep a close eye on him.

As a result, the Portuguese team was in a vacuum outside the penalty area.

Marcus Rashford suddenly cut inside down the middle, shook off Otavio's defence and slotted the ball into the box.

Goalkeeper Diogo moves in the direction of the incoming ball and is ready to pick it up.

Suddenly, a black shadow came out of the middle of the road and pushed the ball in the opposite direction.

[England grabs points in front of the goal! 】

[The ball is in!] 】

【GOAL！！！！！！ 】

[England was the first to break the deadlock! 】

[It was Rossi who scored the goal!] 】

[Portugal actually missed Rossi! 】

[It's a super, super, super, huge mistake! 】

[Conceding a goal is the price paid by Portugal!] 】
