Chapter 624 Chapter [058] - Two-tooth War - [Today's first update]

The final battle for the quarterfinals, which is the battle for the quarterfinals that everyone pays the most attention to - the two-tooth battle.

Before this game, the media have reported on this game one after another. Spain's "Aspen" made a detailed report on the team's game: the match between Spain and Portugal will become a battle between Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​and who is the winner of Ronaldo vs. Villa?
They wrote in the article: The last match of the 1/8 finals of the World Cup will be held on June 6. Spain vs. Portugal is undoubtedly the most watched matchup.In terms of players' personal abilities, this game is more like a contest between Ronaldo alone and the Spanish team.

Ronaldo PK Villa.

Spanish coach Bosque made an interesting speech at the pre-match press conference. He said: "We will not pay special attention to Ronaldo. Portugal is strong because of their overall strength."

As the top stars of the two teams, the duel between Ronaldo and Villa attracts attention, and they happen to belong to the two giants of La Liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona.So far in the World Cup, Ronaldo has only scored one goal against North Korea, and his state is mediocre. 2008 European Championship Golden Boot Villa has scored three goals.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Villa have the same responsibility, and both are the terminators of their respective national team's offense on the field.But Ronaldo is more unique. Portugal has 13 shots against Brazil. He arranged seven of them, but failed to really threaten Brazil's goal.From leader to cancer, Ronaldo hovers between greatness and insignificance. Cristiano Ronaldo has the ability to lead Portugal against Spain, but it depends on whether he can sacrifice his ego to achieve Portugal.This game is his sublimation battle in the Portuguese team.If he can lead Portugal to defeat Spain, it will establish Ronaldo's status as the world's number one star.

Although Ronaldo is also alone in Villabi, he still knows to pass the ball for his teammates when the opportunity is not good. An example of this is the assist of Iniesta to score a goal.After winning the European Golden Boot two years ago, Villa has a chance to win the World Cup Golden Boot again.Only two people have done it in history, one is France's Fontaine, and the other is Germany's Gerd Müller.

Germany's "Kicker" is also very concerned about this game. Their title is: Torres Ronaldo "Peak Dialogue": Fighting skills or showing acting skills.

They wrote in the article: Torres' acting skills reached its peak in the last round of the group match against Chile. At that time, he was running towards the opponent's penalty area and suddenly fell to the ground in pain. The slow motion showed that the opponent's defender did not move at all. Even a slight scratch could not cause him to fall to the ground so tragically.Afterwards, the referee showed the "foul" player Estrada his second yellow card and sent him off.

In the end, Spain beat 11 players with 10 players and defeated Chile 2-1 to advance to the round of 16 as the first in the group.Although Torres' diving harmed the Chilean team, it made the Spanish team advance. There is no objection to the title of "Actor".

If Torres is a new actor, then Ronaldo is a veteran actor.His series of diving videos in the Premier League have long been the jokes of fans after dinner, and some people even made a "C Ronaldo Diving Album" for this. "Flora"'s trip to this World Cup was not going well, and he just scored an insignificant goal in the 7-0 victory over the North Korean team.Once this campaign loses and leaves, Ronaldo, Rooney and Messi, who has not scored a goal so far, will become the "three tragic strikers in history".

If Ronaldo meets Torres by chance, who can impress the referee first?To use a cliché: "The dialogue between old and new actors is on the verge of breaking out."

Matadors have always loved to eat "grapes".

Geographically, Spain and Portugal are located on the Iberian Peninsula in southern Europe, and the two countries have exchanges in many aspects such as culture and economy.Of course, Spain's territory is larger than Portugal's, its population is larger than that of its neighbors, its economy is also more developed than Portugal's, and its football level is even ahead of Portugal.The two sides have clashed 32 times in world football. Spain has achieved 15 wins, 12 draws and 5 losses. The track record is absolutely dominant.However, history belongs to history. The two sides have rarely played against each other in recent years. The most recent one dates back to 6 years ago, and it was precisely in the last fight that Portugal defeated Spain.

The day before yesterday, when the Portuguese team returned to the Maharisburg training ground in the outer suburbs of Johannesburg, hundreds of enthusiastic Portuguese fans had gathered outside the hotel.French "L'Equipe" reporter Du Pont, who has been with the Portuguese team for many years, was obviously surprised by such a grand event, "They said that Brazil and Argentina are very popular, but now I know that the Portuguese are also so popular in South Africa."

In addition, it is understood that after the training, Deco went to the fans stand to sign autographs for the fans.Unexpectedly, as soon as the Portuguese star signed a few contracts, he was immediately surrounded by hundreds of people. In the end, one of Deco's shoes was trampled off.

The Spanish "Marca" came out with such a report: Queiroz will not hide seven yellow card players, and the Spanish Portuguese winning rate is [-]-[-].

They wrote in the article: Portuguese coach Queiroz attended the pre-match press conference with the Spanish team. Queiroz, who has always seemed a little conservative, said uncharacteristically that if he wants to achieve results in the World Cup, he must choose to take risks.

Queiroz started his press conference simply: "It's an honor to be in the World Cup knockout round with Portugal."

Previously, the former coach of the Spanish team, Aragones, said that it would be extremely difficult for Spain to beat Portugal, and the same is true for Portugal.Queiroz agrees with some of Aragon's views, but the attitudes of the two are slightly different: "In any case, this will be a very good, very fast, creative game. I look forward to a wonderful game."

Facing the mighty Spain, the conservative Queiroz admitted that to enter the knockout round, if you want to achieve something, you need to be adventurous: "At this stage, if you want to win, you have to take risks, both offensively and defensively."

Talking about the opponent Spain, Queiroz said: "Spain is a very good team, very balanced and has a good tradition. Before that, it had very good results and won the European Cup in 08. This is no accident. However, the game is 11 against 11. Let's see you on the field. We have a [-]-[-] win rate against Spain. They are a good team, and so are we."

Portugal has not conceded a goal in three group matches, but Queiroz does not take it seriously: "This situation cannot lead to winning. The important thing is to analyze it from a technical and tactical point of view, but this (not conceding a goal) is not a guarantee of victory against a team like Spain."

"We are trying to get better and want to be the best in Portugal's history. What we accomplished yesterday is not enough to win Spain." This is Queiroz's view after Brazil's defeat. He continued: "Our ambition is amazing. Except for victory, nothing will satisfy us. What I care about now is the domestic media. I want to let everyone know that our goal is realistic. On the contrary, thinking about the past will not satisfy us."

There are currently 7 players in the Portuguese team with yellow cards, but Queiroz said that facing the powerful Portugal, he will not be able to hide these 7 players. "We don't think about yellow cards. Our point of view is to win game by game. We have to be faster than them and we need to think faster."

However, England's "The Sun" seems to have a different view. They actually published such a report: Spain's five reasons for winning: the powerful front and the double insurance of Barcelona's defense.

Their reasons are as follows: at 6:29 on the evening of June 20th, South African time, the grand finale of the 1/8 finals in South Africa will be staged, Spain vs Portugal.This is a derby match in the Iberian Peninsula. According to the latest FIFA international rankings, this is a battle between the 2nd and 3rd place. Naturally, it is the focus of everyone.Which of the two "teeth" is sharper?Everyone has their own opinion, and the British Goal website listed 5 reasons for Spain's victory.

1.The striker combination of Villa and Torres

Portugal has a lot of experienced attackers, but there are no pure forwards, such as Spain's Villa and Torres.Spanish coach Del Bosque used a single striker formation for most of the qualifiers, but switched to a double striker after arriving in South Africa.According to the news, Bosque will continue to use the starting lineup against Chile, which means that Villa and Torres' partner will have plenty of opportunities to test the Portuguese goalkeeper.In the group stage, both Villa and Torres were shooting kings, and most of them missed the target.However, once Spain wins, it must be the ace striker partner who seized the opportunity.

2.Midfield short passing and ball possession
Spain, which is generally considered to have the strongest midfielder, has always been good at controlling the rhythm.With midfielders such as Xavi, Iniesta, Alonso and Busquets, Spain is good at tearing apart the opponent's defense with precise short passes. Their ball-handling skills, creativity and tactical coordination are world-class.

Aragones, the coach who led Spain to their historic Euro 2008 title, believes that if Portugal can win possession, then they have won.If Spain wants to win, they must have the ball at their feet. As long as this military rule is implemented, Portugal can be reduced to a team that can only rely on counterattacks to create opportunities.Of course, Pique and Puyol must keep an eye on Ronaldo so that Spain can win.

3.bench depth

Similar to Argentina, Spain has the deepest bench.In the Spanish team, talents such as Cesc Fabregas, David Silva and Keylor Navas can only be used as reserve players. Such a rich player selection allows Del Bosque to adjust his strategy at the right time during the game.Just imagine, if Navas came off the bench in the second half, his side attack would make Portuguese full-back Coent exhausted, while players like Pedro, Harvey Martinez, Arbeloa and Llorente can definitely surprise us at the end of the game or in overtime.

4. 2008 European Cup experience
In the summer of 2008, Spain won their first European Championship in 44 years.This championship made Spain reborn, from a flashy image in the past to a world-class team, and Spain showed its kingly demeanor in the subsequent World Cup qualifiers and warm-up matches.Although Spain's performance in this World Cup has declined, most of the winning lineup is still in the team (except Senna). The experience of winning the championship two years ago will give the whole team a mental stimulation.

5.destiny

A sense of fate has hung over Spain since Iker Casillas saved two of Italy's penalties in the European Cup quarter-final shootout.Spain has jumped from "Adou" to the top team in world football, and since then they have maintained a 1% winning rate against strong teams (including Argentina, England and France, etc.).Fans including Catalonia and the Basque Country are proud of the Spanish national team. What a powerful spiritual force this is.

However, it is clear that the entire Spanish team disagrees with the "Sun"'s rhetoric.The Spanish soldiers didn't know whether they were really afraid of C. Ronaldo, or they deliberately used "praise and kill" tactics to confuse him. In short, before the game, C. Ronaldo was praised by the Spaniards.Spain coach Bosque, as well as Juan Mata and Martinez all said: "C. Luo is the biggest obstacle to our victory."

"Even without Cristiano, the Portuguese team is a great team. Of course, Ronaldo is definitely the best of them. He is the flag of the Portuguese team. But for us, what we have to deal with is a team, not an individual." Stay. So after entering the knockout rounds, you have to be more careful in every game, because the opponents you meet are the best."

The Spanish general Mata also warned his teammates not to take it lightly: "The World Cup really starts now. You only have one chance in your hand. As long as you don't perform well in a certain game, you will lose all games. The Portuguese team is a very strong team. They have great midfielders, such as Thiago and Meireles. They can organize extremely threatening attacks. Of course, Ronaldo is not to mention."

Another Spanish player, Martinez, also believes that the Portuguese team is a difficult bone: "Except for Ronaldo, the other Portuguese players are equally good, and they are the main players in their respective clubs."

C. Luo Ke no matter whether it is a flattery or something messed up, he accepts all compliments from his opponents. He threatened not only to win the World Cup, but also to become the best scorer and best player.
