striker cool brother

"Can anyone tell me why he was left out?"

Angry, Sanchez kicked the water bottle on the ground hard, causing water to splash.

The players on the bench did not dare to touch his bad luck, so they lowered their heads and avoided his gaze.

Ronaldo looked at the court with a very serious expression and shook his head inadvertently.

Deep down, he longs to play more than anyone else.

He wants to have a final showdown with Rossi on the World Cup stage.

Speaking of the match between the two, it goes back to the Champions League final six years ago.

Bayern Munich, where Rossi was at that time, lost in a penalty shootout and watched Real Madrid defend the Champions League title.

A year later, the two teams reached the Champions League final again and staged a peak showdown.

Rossi used his goals to destroy Real Madrid's dream of three consecutive championships, and at the same time started his own path to becoming a god by winning five consecutive Champions League titles.

Ronaldo chose to leave Real Madrid, go to Serie A, and finally return to the Premier League.

At 36 years old, he can still play, but not at this time.

The counterattack pressure after losing the ball was not enough, and the defense in the middle was out of position. These have already begun to show up in the game against Morocco.

But victory blinded coach Sanchez's eyes. In front of the stronger England team, those details that he had not paid attention to will be infinitely magnified.

After the restart, Portugal continued to press aggressively, trying to use the deep sprint from the wing to find opportunities in front of the goal.

But the England team tasted the sweetness of the goal just now. They first retracted their formation and defended deeply.

Once the opportunity to counterattack is seized, midfielders Ruben Neves and Otavio will be England's key targets.

The wing attack had little effect, and the midfield defense line was frequently attacked. The Portuguese team had to accumulate heavy troops in the midfield, trying to use short passes to penetrate and advance the attack.

However, the England team maintained a reasonable distance between the midfield and the back line, and the players did not fall behind in individual confrontations, which made it difficult for Portugal's offense to advance.

The pressure was concentrated in the midfield. The number of interceptions by England in the B seat increased when receiving the ball, and the number of times the ball was lost also increased sharply.

Coach Sanchez's face became increasingly ugly.

In recent years, Portugal has gradually transformed from a country rich in wingers to an arsenal of offensive and defensive central midfielders.

Joao Mario, Ferreira, Adrian, Nunes, and European golden boy Retona are all talented midfielders.

But in this era where midfield talents are emerging in large numbers, we still can't find a suitable candidate for a double midfielder.

"Boss, I think we should play Palinja in the second half."

At halftime, in the player tunnel, Ronaldo and coach Sanchez talked about their opinions.

In the second half of the first half, the Portuguese team's two wingers not only shouldered the burden of attacking, but also had to pay attention to the gaps in the backcourt.

Ruben Neves has proven with his strength and condition that he is not qualified for the role of midfielder in this game, and a substitution is imminent.

"Not only him, you also need to be ready to play." The old coach paused and continued: "We need you!"

There is a lot of competition among the starting players, everyone wants to be the boss of the team.

But in the coach's heart, Ronaldo's position is irreplaceable.

"I'll do my best!"

After Ronaldo hugged the coach, he went straight back to the locker room.

As the second half prepares to begin, Rossi waits for the kick-off in the center circle.

At the referee's signal, Ronaldo and Palinha came on as substitutes.

Ruben Neves and Guerrero were replaced.

Pepe put the captain's armband on Ronaldo's left arm and hugged him.

"It's up to you, Captain!"

Only when the captain's armband is worn on Ronaldo's shoulders, this is the real Portuguese team.

The appearance of Palinha, the Premier League's steal leader, ensured the stability of the defense and also clarified the coach's strategy of long passes.

Although Maguire has the advantages of height and physical confrontation, his speed and reaction have always been his shortcomings.

If you retreat too deep, Portugal will catch a long shot from the outside.Too far forward, Felix can make full use of the space behind him.

In the 48th minute, Felix dribbled the ball inward and passed it to Otavio in the ribs, hoping to complete a collision with him.

Ottavio knew this intention, and so did the England team.

So Mount has been guarding him closely.

Although Otavio's defense is criticized, his offensive connection in the frontcourt is completely different.

He did not return the ball to Felix, but took advantage of his teammates' lateral movement. After attracting attention, he pulled the ball and turned around, facing the goal.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Rice immediately attacked, but was a step too late and Ottavio passed the ball to the back point.

The figure of the red No. 7 rose from the ground, overwhelmed Stones, and headed the ball towards the goal.

Pickford was obviously ill-prepared. After subconsciously moving his body a step to the left, there was no follow-up action to save the ball.

Fortunately, when Ronaldo headed the ball, he was more or less interfered by Stones and missed the far post, startling the English defense.

"Harry, you have to come here to help defend!"

Stones alone cannot stop Ronaldo and must rely on his teammates for help.

But Maguire has his own worries. He has to mark another Portuguese striker, Ramos.

Three minutes later, Portugal's offensive struck again.

Ronaldo attracted three double-teams on the right side of the penalty area, and the defense on the left side was relatively loose.

Seat B suddenly hoisted the ball over the head of Ramos at the back point, and Portugal once again successfully completed a header attack.

This was Sanchez's tactic in the second half, a two-center attack tactic.

With Palinha's protection behind him, the two wings of the Portuguese team can press forward unscrupulously and continuously send shells forward.

Southgate saw that the defense was struggling and immediately strengthened the interception and interference from the outside, affecting the quality of the Portuguese team's crosses.

In the 69th minute, the high-altitude bombing failed to score, and the Portuguese team made another substitution.

Rafael Leao replaced Gonzalo Ramos, who was declining in physical fitness.

Although this substitution has enriched the attack on the left, Ronaldo is alone at the front, which is somewhat difficult to support alone.

England also took advantage of this period to breathe a sigh of relief from the strong pressure of the opponent's double center.

In the 75th minute, Saka replaced Rashford.

Master La's task in this game is to consume his opponent.

Ruben Neves left the field at half-time and helped the team take the lead, Rashford has successfully completed the task.

The game entered the last 15 minutes. After the Portuguese team faced the unfavorable situation of a single arrow attack, coach Sanchez decided to fight against the odds.

Forward Otar replaces midfielder Otavita.

葡萄牙阵型由原来的4-2-3-1，变成3-2-2-3。

From the beginning of the game, the Portuguese team took the initiative and had slightly better statistics.

But the England team is extremely stable, using constant adjustments to disrupt the opponent's offense.

When necessary, counterattacks can be given.

But after Palinha's appearance, Rossi was targeted, and England's counterattack lost its previous edge.

In the 80th minute, when Kane advanced with the ball, he was tackled to the ground by Palinha, causing a commotion in the stadium.

But the referee indicated that there was no foul.
