KC267 [2-in-1 (including yesterday's supplement)]
-------------------------------------
After falling behind in the Champions League, Cristiano returned to the national team's training camp almost non-stop.
The European Championship group stage schedule has been released, and Portugal's signing looks a bit bad, joining Portugal in the same group as Germany, the runners-up of the last European Championship, the Netherlands, who reached the quarter-finals, and Denmark, a traditional European powerhouse.
- Portugal is once again involved in the Death Cluster.
The first group game of the European Championship was against Germany.
Against the bold and iron-willed German chariot, the eleven people were like a company of soldiers, driving the chariot to run over the court, neat and uniform, rigorous and united.
Portugal fought hard until the end and were given the crucial winner at the end of the 80 minutes.
Portugal's opening zero points heralded a thin ice march in the group stage, and despite a 3-2 win against Denmark with a valuable three points, they have an even tougher game ahead of them if they want to make it from the group stage to the knockout stages -
Against the Netherlands.
Portugal and the Netherlands have played each other too many times, and the most impressive is the 06 World Cup, which has become a game that has been talked about by fans countless times.
As if it was just the blink of an eye, Cristiano, who was kicked and cried and injured in the last game, became the captain of the team that led Portugal to the Tulip Army in this game.
In the tunnel of the players, Cristiano was cheering on his teammates, and the Dutch team next door also walked in.
“Ronnie!” Van der Sar let out a loud greeting, beckoned to Cristiano, and grinned.
Before the game, for various reasons, there was no chance to meet Cristiano in private, and the match became the first time they met in a long time.
Cristiano heard the familiar shout, immediately turned away, laughed, strode towards Van der Sar, almost jumped up and gave a hard hug: "Edwin! ”
Van der Sarbi gestured at the top of Cristiano's head: "You've grown taller, haven't you?" Ronnie? Boy. ”
As he spoke, he reached out and rubbed Cristiano's heart, and unsurprisingly dipped another hand of hairspray, Van der Sar paused, a little smiling, he squinted: "Still taming your little curly hair with hairspray?" How cute the curly hair is. ”
Cristiano: "...... Edwin! ”
Ruud van Nistelrooy also stepped up from the back of the tunnel, and when he heard Van der Sar's joke, he curled the corners of his mouth: "Some stinky little imp would probably want to delete his teeth and curly second half game from the world, Edwin, you really know how to chat." ”
Cristiano couldn't help but cover his face with his hands, it must have been how many years ago he did? Fanny actually remembers!
Maybe it was because of that game that he was taken a headshot by the media with a slap in the face?
Van der Sar showed a bit of novelty: "Ronnie came to Manchester United with a tooth cage? Wow, Luther, it looks like you have a lot of things in your personal collection, and we can talk about it. ”
Fanny narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Of course." ”
Cristiano rolled his eyes and whispered to Fanny, "Luther! ()”
“Ronnie▆[(()”
Ruud van Nistelrooy laughed, no longer making fun of his little friend, he opened his arms and gave the Portuguese a hug, "Congratulations on winning the Champions League." ”
"Thank you. You're in good shape in the Bundesliga, you look really good. Cristiano said heartily.
The Dutchman in front of him has trimmed his slightly longer hair, looking cleaner and more energetic, and the king of the small box is in the league scorer list in his first season in the Bundesliga.
Ruud van Nistelrooy still likes to pinch Cristiano's face, saying: "It'll be more intuitive when you get off the pitch. Don't cry if you lose, Ronnie. ”
"Don't cry if you're scored." Cristiano grimaced, then grinned and put his arms around the necks of his two friends, he rested his chin on the left and right shoulders of the two of them, and said solemnly and seriously, "I'm going to give it my all in this game,"
"Of course." Van der Sar and Ruud van Nistelrooy looked at each other.
The Dutch have yet to win a single game and Denmark have finished the tournament with two defeats and one win means that the Netherlands will have to win against Portugal if they want to qualify for the final round of the group stage, as well as have enough goal difference to secure a ticket to the knockout rounds.
Cristiano was on the Dutch side as if he were doing diplomacy, while the Portuguese team looked across the narrow passage from time to time.
The Dutch seem to be tall and tall, and the Portuguese are whispering.
Their captain came to the Dutch team, as if they had all shrunk in size, and the few centre-backs who didn't look good to mess with – including the ones they had eaten in the card battle before – looked like their captain had fallen into the mouth of a tiger.
Coentrão craned his neck and looked: "Those Dutchmen surrounded Chris so tightly that I couldn't even see it, what were they talking about?" ”
Portugal's young striker Nani frowned when he saw this: "Are they putting some kind of trash talk to mock us?" Cristiano looked angry. Van Bommel was also there L. ”
- He knows how rough and savage these Dutchmen are, he's seen the live broadcast of that World Cup!
"Shall we go over?" Goalkeeper Patricio heard this.
"Not so ......" Pepe rubbed his chin and looked in the direction that Coentrão and Quaresma had said, then laughed, "It must be Van der Sar and Vanney who are teasing Chris again." They hadn't seen each other in a long time. ”
Quaresma's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked there for a few seconds, and saw Cristiano holding the two tall Dutchmen together, and had to agree that Pepe was right.
Cristiano was soon back in his group, and Coentrão stepped forward: "What did they just say?" ”
"Just some cheers." Cristiano said he couldn't tell his teammates that they were talking about his curly hair and weird black history.
Coentrão looked incredulous, he saw Cristiano there and was so anxious that he almost stamped his foot.
Cristiano was uncomfortable with Coentrão, coughed lightly, and slapped the young defender on the head: "Yes."
() It's on the field, and it's all focused on me! ()”
“? ()? [()”
There was a lot of live commentary on the game, and machines were set up all around the stadium.
The narrators are babbling, "...... However, in the final round of the group stage, the Dutch team will play against Portugal, a team that will only show some shadows of giants in recent years, and the foundation is still too weak, and it is the last chance for the Dutch team to win the knockout stage ticket to the European Championship, and it is also the most promising opportunity. ”
The game had just begun, and the two teams played a very beautiful match.
The Dutch team's attacking desire was very strong, and in less than ten minutes, the Netherlands launched three very threatening shots towards the Portuguese goal, which surprised Patricio in a cold sweat.
Portugal faced the Dutch team with an extravagant attacking lineup, with the Bundesliga Golden Boot Huntelaar, the Premier League Golden Boot Robin van Persie, and the king of the small penalty area, Ruud van Nistelrooy, who quickly shocked Portugal at the beginning of the game.
Coentrão and Pepe quickly regrouped their defence, and the ball was tackled and immediately fed into the front.
Switching from defense to attack seems to be much easier for Portugal.
This subtle fluidity reflects the disjointed tension between the Dutch midfield and the front, giving Portugal the opportunity to counter-attack, which Cristiano was almost keenly aware of.
He immediately commanded his teammates.
However, the Dutch attack was still luxurious, and the Dutch team in the first half almost firmly controlled the offensive power on the field.
In the eighteenth minute of the game, Sneijder crossed into the penalty area, which was blocked by the Portuguese defender with his body, but after the ball rebounded, it was keenly captured by Ruud van Nistelrooy, a scramble outside the penalty area, a breakthrough, and slammed the Portuguese goal, taking the lead in pulling the score away.
"The Netherlands are one point ahead!! Fanny Periphery Cold Arrow! The Netherlands have a one-goal lead! ”
The goal was no surprise for the attacking posture displayed by the Dutch team.
"Portugal have to adjust as soon as possible, both teams are very good in attack, which means that whichever side makes a mistake first, which side will concede the goal, Portugal is already a goal behind!"
Portugal's qualification for the European Championship was not smooth either, with Queiroz's team having a draw in qualifying and then losing away to Norway, with a succession of unfavourable starts that sacked the manager, and the new coach had no experience of bringing the team to the title in any club.
Therefore, for this game, even if Portugal has players such as Cristiano, Coentrão and Pepe, who play in Real Madrid, the general fans are still optimistic about the Dutch team qualifying.
The Dutch team, who have already scored a goal, are obviously much less pressed.
On the Portuguese side, Cristiano was not in a hurry because he was behind at the beginning of the game, and he calmly organized his teammates in the middle
() Field counter-robbery.
The Dutch team's attack was really good, but the whole team didn't play
In his usual style, the ageing of the centre-backs is visible to the naked eye, the barriers in midfield are ineffective, and the centre-forwards lack support from the wings, and Van Bommel is unable to allow the Orange to quickly switch between attack and defence.
When Cristiano interspersed the midfield and deftly and easily connected the ball from the feet of the Dutch team, the stage was for Portugal to play a swift counter-attack.
"Ronaldo steals the ball from Van Bommel's feet! Van Bommel, the former midfield rival and Ronaldo, who was still very young and immature, frequently kicked and cried, and now in the face of Ronaldo's attack, he can only look at the opponent's back! ”
Cristiano broke the ball and pressed forward quickly along the wing, took a man and hit the goal directly from outside the box, and the ball almost hit the side-netting against the side post.
The on-site commentators and the commentators in the broadcast hall almost exclaimed, this angle was so close, as if it had been hit in the net!
'Ronaldo's shot was blocked by a defender in front of him and the shot went wide!'
"What a shame to have a shot on goal! The speed and power are very good, and the angle is almost to the corner of the goal, if it is more correct, I am afraid that the goalkeeper will not be able to save this ball! ”
The narrator said regretfully.
Cristiano also felt regretful, bared his teeth, noticed that the camera was aimed at him, he stuck out his tongue, and immediately trotted away.
When he scores, he'll get these shots to take a good picture of his whole body.
He thought to himself, not feeling how childish this thought was.
Van der Sar and the defenders were shocked into a cold sweat by this cold gun-like shot.
Van der Sar looked at Cristiano trotting away, and he inhaled softly, which was more powerful, more angled, and harder to pounce on than he had expected.
With Portugal interrupting the Dutch attack again and again, then counter-attacking and then attacking, the rhythm of the Dutch side was completely disrupted.
From the second half of the first half, Portugal controlled the ball to a great extent at their own feet, perfectly interpreting modern football - delicate passing, beautiful and quick counterattacks, pressing in front, and organization after stealing the ball, the whole tacit cooperation was far more fluid than that of the Netherlands.
"Quaresma kicked straight through the wall in the middle! Ronaldo outflanked the front and scrambled to shoot!! Van der Sar was a little slower to strike! The ball went in!! ”
"Twenty-eight minutes of play! Ronaldo equalizes for Portugal! Assist from Quaresma! ”
"Very beautiful front-court combination, Ronaldo faced the attack of goalkeeper Van der Sar, showed very calm, and sent the ball past the goalkeeper and into the net with a little pick! The Dutch defense is in some danger! ”
Cristiano trotted to the spectator stands on the sidelines, and he raised the corners of his mouth a little smugly, waving to his teammates and hugging him.
After the equaliser, the Dutch side was much more impetuous.
Sneijder pressed deeper up front, so much more space between the midfielders that the manager's command in the coaching area didn't play much of a role.
The Dutch team's identification with the manager tends to be none, which means that the manager has completely lost control of the team, which is fatal.
The Dutch team, which has too many superstar luxury lineups, is like the Brazilian team in 06, and the pursuit of the individual and the downplay of the collective style have pushed them step by step into the abyss.
Ruud van Nistelrooy saw their problems in midfield, but he struggled to make much of a difference.
The consecutive defeats in the first two games have actually exposed the team's problems very obviously, but in the face of Portugal, facing Portugal that has lost its golden generation, both the coach and the main team have underestimated this team.
Only Ruud van der Sar and Ruud van Nistelrooy know that even if Portugal lose their golden generation, they still have the most legendary man of the century, and that a team with Cristiano Ronaldo will always surprise people.
Even if Cristiano can't turn adversity every time, he is the one who makes miracles most likely.
In the second half, Cristiano sprinted from the side after stealing the ball from midfield again, and after observing the situation in front of the field, he crossed the line and crossed the ball straight to the second post in front of the penalty area.
Nani had almost one-on-one communication with Van der Sar, and he didn't hesitate to get a quick kick that was confiscated by Van der Sar.
He clenched his fist in annoyance, the ball that Cristiano passed to him was very good, but unfortunately he shot too high.
Van der Sar breathed a sigh of relief, holding on to the ball and gasping as he motioned for everyone to step back on the other side, glad in his heart that it wasn't Ronnie who had attacked.
If it was one-on-one with Ronnie, the goal would have been dangerous, and in such a close, large space environment, he knew how many clever ideas and footwork Ronnie had to tease the goalkeeper.
The ball rolled towards the Portuguese half again.
Portugal's defence remained as tight as ever, with Carvalho and Pepe working together to make it difficult for the Dutch midfielder to easily move the ball closer to the box.
As soon as Coentrão broke off the ball, he immediately pressed forward with the midfield, and Portugal's forward pressing greatly increased the pressure on the Dutch defenders, and the chain affected the performance of the forwards.
In the 78th minute of the game, Nani did not covet the ball at his feet after taking the ball, and a diagonal pass was delivered to Cristiano's feet very accurately.
"Ronaldo gets the ball again!"
"Very calmly got rid of the defenders in front of him! The other party was shaken by a feint and fell! There was almost nothing around him, one-on-one with Van der Sar!! ”
Cristiano glanced up at Van der Sar, he was extremely calm, and Van der Sar felt a long-lost nervousness and hesitation under the other party's gaze.
"Ronaldo hits the goal! Van der Sar was deceived into misestimating the direction! The ball is in!! Cristiano Ronaldo overtook the Netherlands in the 78th minute!! ”
Cristiano took a long breath and ran to the sidelines, the desire and pressure to qualify from the Group of Death was self-evident, not to mention being led by one goal in the opening period.
But they got it back!
Before this goal, he had several chances to shoot, but as if he had an inseparable fate with the post, he always popped up in the middle of the side post, and the frustration of missing the goal weighed on his chest layer by layer, and now at this moment, he could finally sweep it away and yell it out.
Van der Sar looked at the back of Cristiano who was running towards the crowd and shook helplessly
head(),
Ronnie
2-1? ()_[((),
The Netherlands ended their European Championship campaign early with three wins in all games.
When the whistle blew at the end of the game, everyone in Portugal ran in from the sidelines in ecstasy -
"Congratulations Portugal! Advance to the quarterfinals! The quarter-finals will be held in five days! ”
"Ronaldo scored twice! Help Portugal break out of the Group of Death! ”
"That's what the stars do! Ronaldo not only played his role as a goalscorer in the game, but also played a role in passing, organising and helping the other players in the team to play a bigger role, which is what we can see in this game Cristiano! Not only can he shoot, but he can also assist and even defend! ”
“……”
The commentators were very excited in their own lenses.
The two teams greeted the crowd at the end of the game and returned to the players' tunnel.
Cristiano hurried to catch up with Ruud van Nistelrooy, who took off his shirt and handed it over.
Seeing this, Vanney glanced at Chris, he smiled, and also exchanged the jersey on his body happily: "You have to let Portugal go further, otherwise I will be sad." ”
Cristiano paused for a moment, then he leaned sideways and hugged Vanney hard, and whispered.
He knew that if nothing else, this European Championship would be Ruud van Nistelrooy's last, but it ended with such a result, and it was impossible not to be frustrated.
He could almost feel it, and his breath became heavier.
Vanney noticed the change in Cristiano, and as soon as he tried to tilt his head, he felt the Portuguese soothing kiss fall on the side of his neck, like a feather, and like the little Chihuahua he had raised, and coldly leaned up to him.
"We can't solve the problems of the team alone, Luther, we can't always be the one to change the game, I've learned to accept it." Cristiano said in a low voice.
Vanney paused, he looked at Cristiano with some surprise, he never thought that this sentence would come out of Cristiano's mouth -
He meant that when Cristiano always brought his team the fruits of victory against the wind in the game, Cristiano was the one who was most qualified to use personal heroism as a label.
But it was just this Cristiano who said something as old-fashioned as "learn to accept it".
Although, he has to agree.
Fanny looked at Cristiano, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch the soft flesh on the boy's face again: "When is it your turn to teach me a lesson?" Ronnie? Thanks, though. I'm serious. ”
He smiled, but quickly closed the corners of his mouth, and he gave Cristiano a gentle hug before parting.
Portugal's European Championship adventure continues, but it's time for him to leave!
