It has been a few days since I came to South Africa, and the Confederations Cup is getting closer.At this time, the Portuguese national team ushered in the last warm-up match before the Confederations Cup, and their opponent was the Egyptian team.

Why did the Portuguese national team choose the Egyptian team as their warm-up opponent in the last warm-up match before the Confederations Cup? This is because their Portuguese national team and the host South Africa are in a group. The team became a stand-in for the South African team and came to find out how it felt.

The Confederations Cup, formerly known as the Intercontinental Cup, was proposed by the Asian, African, South American and North American Caribbean Football Federations in 1991. It is now hosted by FIFA. In 05, it was changed to be held every four years. It is held every two years, and the 8th competition will be held in 2009.The participating teams are the host national football team and the last season's continental football championships, cup champions and world champions. In January 1992, the first Intercontinental Cup football match was held in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, and the Argentine team won.

The teams participating in this year's Confederations Cup include African champion Egypt, Australian champion New Zealand, Asian champion Iraq, North American champion United States, South American champion Brazil, European champion Portugal, world champion Italy and host South Africa.

This grouping has been determined before, the Portuguese national team is divided into the group, and in this group are the host South Africa, the Asian champion Iraq and the Australian champion New Zealand. The four teams in Group B are world champions Italy, African champions Egypt, South American champions Brazil, and North American champions the United States. [

The opening game of this tournament was between the hosts South Africa and Iraq, and the Portuguese national team will face the Australian champion New Zealand after this game.

There is still a week before the start of the game, so at this time, the Portuguese national team is preparing for the last warm-up match before the game. Their opponent is the Egyptian team in Group B.In their warm-up match, the world champion Italian team will also warm up with the New Zealand team.

This is a good opportunity for the Portuguese national team to observe their first opponent, New Zealand.However, at this time, they have a game to go on, and of course they can't go to the scene to understand the situation of the New Zealand team.At this time, the coach of the Portuguese national team, Queiroz, sent his assistant to obtain intelligence from the New Zealand team.

The Egyptian team is not a weak team. From the perspective of the Portuguese national team, their strength should be much stronger than that of the host South Africa, because there are several stars in European football in their team.Among them, the two most famous midfielders are Shuji, Mido and forward Zidan.

Midfielder Shuki is now playing for Middlesbrough in the Premier League. Qiu Ze played against this kid when he was in the Premier League.

The midfielder Mido is still very famous in the Premier League. He was the absolute core of Tottenham Hotspur, but now he has left Tottenham Hotspur.This guy can play as a midfielder as well as a striker. He has performed very well in the Premier League and scored a lot of goals. He has to defend.

The striker Zidan is also very famous in the Bundesliga. He has played for many Bundesliga giants. This guy has done very well in the Bundesliga and scored a lot of goals.

Therefore, it can be seen from this that the opponent of the Portuguese national team in this game is not weak, not weak at all.The Portuguese national team must be serious in order to be able to win the opponent.

Before the game, the head coach of the Portuguese national team, Queiroz, had made it very clear to the players that the game must be won and the upcoming Confederations Cup must be a good start.

The Confederations Cup is very important to Queiroz. This is a task given to him by the Portuguese Football Association, so he will be very careful and cautious.

By the day of the game, the spirits of the Portuguese national team players were very good, especially Qiu Ze, this was the best time since he came to South Africa.However, the weather in South Africa is really hot enough, it's so hot that Qiu Ze is almost dying.

However, when the afternoon was approaching the evening, the temperature here changed a lot.Suddenly became very comfortable and suitable for playing football.Only then did the players of the Portuguese national team feel better, and at the same time they had more confidence in this game.

For this game, both teams are very serious.The Portuguese national team used Essien as a substitute for South Africa, so why didn't Egypt use Portugal as a substitute for Italy?

The Egyptian side also attaches great importance to the result of this game, so in this game, he sent a lineup with all the main players in a formation of [-].

In the goalkeeper position is Hadari, and in the back four are Saeed, Hani Saeed, Goma and Hassan.In the four midfield positions are Desi, Raab, Shuki and Moawad.On the forward line are Zidan and Abtrika.

Egypt's midfielder Mido did not appear in the team's main lineup today, but sat on the bench, waiting for an opportunity.

The Portuguese national team sent out a [-] formation, with Ricardo as the goalkeeper and Paulo Ferreira, Carvalho, Pepe and Bosingwa as the back four.In the positions of the double defensive midfielders are Veloso and Deco.

In the three avant-garde positions are Nani, Chiu Ze and Quaresma, and of course Nuno Gomez is at the top.

Yes, Cristiano Ronaldo did not start today, nor did he sit on the bench.This guy was suspended, so this guy stayed in the hotel and didn't come to the scene with the team at all. [

Originally Queiroz hoped that Cristiano Ronaldo would come to the scene to watch the game, but Cristiano Ronaldo didn't want to see Qiu Ze flourishing on the court, so he proposed to rest and did not come to the scene.

Soon after the referee blew the whistle, the match between the two sides officially began. The half of the host team Egypt kicked off first.

The Egyptian team can be regarded as an offensive team, but today when they collided with the European champion Portugal national team, they chose to defend and counterattack.Only Qi Dan was left in front, because this guy has speed and good skills, and he became a sharp knife for Egypt's counterattack.

To be honest, the role of this guy Qi Dan is very obvious, and his strength is not bad.In the 10th minute of the first half, he taught the Portuguese national team a good lesson. This guy almost sent the football into the goal of the Portuguese national team, which made the Portuguese a false alarm.

This is a counterattack by the Egyptian team. After stealing the ball in midfield, Shuki of the Egyptian team tore through the defense of the Portuguese national team with a simple through ball.After Khitan held the football, it shook continuously at the front of the penalty area, passed Carvalho of the Portuguese national team, and then directly kicked a volley from one step in the penalty area, and the football went slightly wide.

This was really very dangerous. The Egyptian team almost took the lead, which excited the African fans at the scene, and they immediately blew the vuvuzuna.

That damned sound caused the players of the Portuguese national team to suffer a lot. Some guys were already dizzy and their feet were swaying due to this thing.Really, from the very beginning of the game, that damned vuvuzu began to roar, without stopping for a moment.

This really killed the players of the Portuguese national team. Qiu Ze was better because he had already prepared.In his previous life, he knew the ferocity of this weapon. During the Confederations Cup in his previous life, the European champion Spanish national team complained about it a lot. Even after the Spanish national team lost to the United States in the semi-finals, he used all the reasons It all comes down to this damned vuvuzu.

This shows that European players are not used to this thing, so Qiu Ze was well prepared.The other players of the Portuguese national team did not have such preparations. They were not like Qiu Ze who came through time travel. The first time they heard this voice, they were almost crazy.

As an African team, Egypt did not feel any discomfort, they played like usual.Therefore, after the start of the game, the Egyptian team played normally and they performed well.The Portuguese national team is playing a bit of a market.

Qiu Ze's performance was quite normal, even wonderful.However, the performance of other Portuguese national team players is very abnormal, so even if Qiu Ze plays well, the Portuguese national team does not have many opportunities now.

On the contrary, the Egyptian team got more opportunities, and it was Zidan again, this guy is really everywhere.Moreover, his speed advantage is obvious. The players of the Portuguese national team were almost fainted by the sound of the vuvuzuna.

This gave Zidan of the Egyptian team a one-handed chance, which frightened the coach of the Portuguese national team on the sidelines Queiroz. He immediately jumped up from the coach's bench and rushed to the sidelines with a look Staring at Qi Dan's white back in horror.

The fans of the Portuguese national team at the scene were also afraid and worried, and their eyes were full of horror.

The Egyptian fans at the scene were extremely excited. They stood up one after another and raised their hands high.The local fans in South Africa blew the vuvuzuna in their hands even more frantically. At this time, they were very excited and blew even louder.

Zidan faced the goalkeeper Ricardo of the Portuguese national team single-handedly. Facing the attacking goalkeeper, he immediately kicked up while running and stabbed the football towards the goal of the Portuguese national team.

Fortunately, this time it was Ricardo's quick reaction, and he directly pressed the football under him with a side attack.Otherwise, this time, the Portuguese national team will be in trouble.

Seeing that Ricardo put the football under his body, the Portuguese national team fans on the scene immediately cheered excitedly.The Egyptian fans kept sighing, this opportunity is really good, but it's a pity that they didn't grasp it, what a pity.
