Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 486

Although already mentally prepared, Ronaldo still has mixed feelings when meeting his boss as an opponent.

How good Chen Ran is, no one knows better than Ronaldo and the first players who followed Chen Ran.

After Chen Ran led the Portuguese national team to win the World Cup, as a player, in addition to the European Cup, Ronaldo has won all the honors he can get.

However, now that Portugal managed to reach the final of the European Cup, they happened to meet Belgium, which was coached by Chen Ran. This immediately cast a heavy shadow on Portugal's prospects for winning the championship.

Even so, before the game, led by Ronaldo, Pepe, Carvalho, Nani and other Portuguese players who had followed Chen Ran to win the World Cup, they still ran to say hello to Chen Ran.

"Boss, although you are my boss, but this time, I will not let Belgium take away the European Cup championship trophy!"

Before leaving, Ronaldo stared closely at Chen Ran's eyes and said with a stiff neck.

"Hahahaha, Chris, relax. This is what you should do, and I won't blame you."

Chen Ran patted Ronaldo on the shoulder with a smile.

"Of course, you can rest assured that I will not let this happen."

"."

Speechlessly glanced at Chen Ran, Ronaldo turned around and left without saying a word.

There is no way, against the team coached by Chen Ran, even Ronaldo, who is now famous, has no confidence in his heart.

Perhaps because of fear of Belgium's high-altitude bombing tactics, the Portuguese team shrunk their formation to fight back from the first minute of the game.

Except for the two strikers Ronaldo and Nani, the rest of the Portuguese players did not cross the center line even when they were counterattacking.

Seeing this situation, Chen Ran turned his head and glanced at the Portuguese bench not far away.

This Fernando Santos is probably planning to use the bus tactics to stabilize the defense first, and then rely on the personal abilities of Ronaldo and Nani to fight back.

The counterattack is the best. If not, the game will be dragged to the penalty kick stage. Then everyone depends on luck.

Chen Ran, who quickly saw through Fernando Santos' plan, was not surprised.

Over the years, opponents have used countless bus tactics when facing the team he leads, and he has become accustomed to it.

After leaving four defensive players to serve Ronaldo and Nani, the other Belgian players, under the command of Chen Ran, began to bombard Portugal's defense indiscriminately.

However, although Belgium's fierce offensive made Portugal's defense in a hurry, but because it was still the first half of the game, the Portuguese players were physically fit, and they used more active fighting and running to carry it down, preventing Belgium from breaking their own goal.

Regarding this, Chen Ran was not in a hurry.

You know, before the start of the game, he had already used a "first-level chicken blood card" for Lukaku, Hazard and De Bruyne in one go.

Chen Ran was very confident that with Portugal's defense alone, he would definitely not be able to guard against these three players who were at their peak.Breaking through the Portuguese goal is a matter of time.

Until the end of the first half, the score of the two teams was still 0:0 without any change.

"How come in the finals, Belgium's performance is not as good as before?"

"That's right. Portugal has already given up the initiative in the game. As a result, Belgium stormed half the game and failed to score. Are these players a little tired?"

"The one upstairs looks like a new fan. Why are you in a hurry, Chen Ran always likes to strike late."

"That's right. The main task of Belgium in the first half of the game was to consume the stamina of the Portuguese defensive players. When they can't run in the second half of the game, it's time for Belgium to reap the results."

"Then Portugal can also make substitutions. Doesn't this solve the problem of the physical decline of the players on the field?"

"Hehe, upstairs, if you want to achieve what you said, there is a prerequisite, that is, the strength of the Portuguese substitute players must be similar to the current main players on the field. Otherwise, physical fitness is no problem, but If the ability can't keep up, it will be easy to do bad things."

"Hahahaha, the upstairs is right. What kind of football talent does Portugal have, Chen Ran, the former head coach of the Portuguese national team, still doesn't know?"

"After all, it has been more than six years since Chen Ran left the position of the head coach of the Portuguese national team. Maybe there are good newcomers from Portugal in these years."

"Upstairs, don't forget that in addition to being the head coach of the Belgian national team, Chen Ran is also the owner of the Crystal Palace club. If there are outstanding newcomers in Portugal these years, the Crystal Palace club can be behind Ronaldo and Pepe. , have you never brought in Portuguese players?"

"That's right. Chen Ranke has always been known for his precise vision of pick-and-roll players. If there are any good seedlings in Portugal, he will definitely grab the Crystal Palace as soon as possible."

As the fans have analyzed, Portugal has been a bit out of date since the players of Ronaldo, and there has never been a player who can become a top superstar.

Whether it is Felix or Bruno Fernandez (B fee), they are a bit over-the-top.

In particular, Felix joined Atletico Madrid with a transfer fee of 700 million euros. It is very doubtful how much water has been injected in it.

Therefore, Chen Ran can safely and boldly use attrition tactics against Portugal, because there are no players on the Portuguese bench who can turn things around.

During the halftime break, in the Belgian locker room, Chen Ran did not make any substitutions and adjustments other than giving the players blood as usual.

On the Portuguese side, being able to draw with Belgium in the first half of the game also gave Fernando Santos a lot of confidence and made him more determined to continue to sit on the bus. He also did not make substitutions and adjustments.

After the start of the second half of the game, the two sides still continued the momentum of the first half of the game, one fiercely attacked, the other defended, and the scene was fierce and anxious.

But when the game progressed to 10 minutes, Portugal's defense began to lose its hold.

The ball came to Hazard on the left again. He first passed Portugal's right forward Renato Sanchez with a pass through the crotch.

Then there was another change of direction, shaking the right back Cedric lost his center of gravity, and then went straight into the Portuguese penalty area.

Cedric turned around and chased desperately, but due to his physical decline, Hazard rushed into the penalty area first.

At this moment, Cedric, who wanted to bring Hazard down, didn't dare to move.

In the penalty area, the more experienced Pepe was arranged by Fernando Santos to mark Lukaku and couldn't get away. Another central defender Fonte had no choice but to bite the bullet and intercept Hazard.

Fonte, who is over 1.9 meters tall, is not Hazard's opponent at all in terms of agility or speed.

Hazard changed direction twice in a row, and Fonte couldn't find the north.By the time he reacted, Hazard had rushed past him with the ball.

After passing Fonte, only Portuguese goalkeeper Patricio is left in front of Hazard.

Realizing that the situation was not good, Patricio quickly abandoned the goal and rushed towards Hazard.

Seeing Patricio's action, Hazard dunked the ball with his right foot without any haste, and after avoiding Patricio, he pushed the ball with his left foot to the now unguarded area. Portugal goal.

Seeing that the ball was about to roll into the empty goal, Pepe immediately dropped Lukaku and turned around with a shovel, trying to hook the ball out of the goal line.

At the same time, Lukaku's response was not slow.

After seeing Pepe's actions, he also threw his body out immediately.A flying shovel, trying to shovel the ball into the goal.

Or, at least interfere with Pepe's movements so that he doesn't hook the ball out.

In this way, two strong men, Lukaku and Pepe, shoveled towards Portugal's goal at the same time.

"boom!"

"what!"

With a scream, Lukaku, Pepe and the ball entered the Portuguese net together and rolled into a ball.

"beep!"

When the referee was on duty, the whistle of England's famous post Clattenburg rang immediately, and he rushed to the scene of the incident.

On the sidelines, without any hesitation, Chen Ran immediately called up the system and used an "Hawkeye Guardian Card".

No way, Chen Ran was too familiar with Clattenburg, the referee from England, and he didn't dare to bet on the accuracy of the "Blind Sin"'s judgment.

At this time, in Portugal's penalty area, after checking the situation of the players, Clattenburg first called the Portuguese team doctor to enter the field, and then he pointed to the center circle to indicate that the goal was valid.

"Wow!"

The entire Stade de France suddenly exploded.

The Belgian fans are naturally cheering and excited, but the Portuguese fans don't do it.

Curses and boos mixed with applause and cheers, the Stade de France suddenly turned into a huge vegetable market.

On the court, the Portuguese players would naturally not accept this result.They swarmed up and surrounded Clattenburg in a tight circle.

At the same time, the TV stations around the world responsible for broadcasting the European Cup final are also constantly replaying the slow motion just now from various angles to figure out what happened.

"In slow motion, Portugal's Pepe and Belgium's Lukaku tackled the ball at the same time. Then Pepe wanted to hook the ball out, and Lukaku wanted to poke the ball into the goal. Two people's feet, kicked at the same time. The ball. Strictly speaking, there is no foul on this ball.”

"Judging from the slow motion, Lukaku and Pepe are equivalent to a ball coming across the other foot. Both of them went towards the ball, and no one turned over, so this goal should be effective."

"In such a chaotic situation just now, and what happened in an instant, Clattenburg was able to make an accurate penalty. He deserves to be a famous post from the Premier League."

"It is indeed a very correct decision for UEFA to choose Clattenburg to officiate the Champions League final and the European Cup final."

After showing two consecutive yellow cards to the Portuguese player, Clattenburg finally managed to control the situation on the field.

In the end, he insisted on his previous penalty. Lukaku's goal was valid and Belgium led Portugal 1-0.

"Hahahaha, Portugal defended most of the game, but they still couldn't withstand Belgium's indiscriminate bombing."

"Now Portugal can't continue to place the bus. The next game should be better."

"Hehe, you upstairs are still too young. Portugal won't take the bus anymore, but Belgium will."

"That's right, that guy Chen Ran is such a thug. After finally scoring the lead, why don't you quickly shrink your formation and play a defensive counterattack, and keep this one-goal lead until the end of the game."

"Hahahaha, the people upstairs really know Chen Ran too well. The next match in Portugal will not be easy, and there is not much time left for the match."

On the sidelines, seeing this result, Portugal's head coach Fernando Santos was furious, but he could only grit his teeth and endure it.

Because of his overly excited reaction just now, one of the two yellow cards was given to him.

The fourth official has now turned his attention to Fernando Santos.If he is not careful, he may be fined to the stands.

Now that the score is behind, it is meaningless to continue to drive the bus. Fernando Santos immediately turned around and called the veteran Quaresma from the bench.

After a brief warm-up, he replaced central midfielder Adrian Silva with Quaresma.Nani was then transferred to the left to play as a left winger and Quaresma as a right winger.The team's formation has also changed from the previous 442 to the current 433.

Seeing the substitutions made by Fernando Santos, Chen Ran immediately walked to the sidelines.With a wave of his hand, the Belgian players, who were already familiar with Chen Ran's coaching style, understood it and immediately began to shrink their formation.

Soon, the Belgian players all retreated to their own half, leaving only one Lukaku cruising near the middle circle.

"Hahahaha, this guy Chen Ran is as expected, he's so mean!"

"Damn it, he has won so many championships, yet this guy is still so stupid, at least give his opponent a chance."

"Hahahaha, I don't know how Ronaldo is feeling now."

"What mood? It must be very desperate. This kind of scene, he has experienced many times when he was in the Crystal Palace. Of course, it makes the opponent feel desperate."

As the fans ridiculed, seeing the Belgian players receding like a tide, Ronaldo couldn't help recalling many past events in his mind.

Back then, under the leadership of Chen Ran, the Crystal Palace was invincible and killed all sides.What he is best at is to shrink the formation and play a defensive counterattack after leading, causing the opponent to despair.

At that time, Ronaldo always gloated at the desperate expressions of the opposing players.

However, he never thought that one day, he would experience this feeling.
