Chapter 667 The Last 15 Minutes
[B-Fernandez pulls aside! 】

[Okay, it’s passed in! 】

[Outflank in front of the door! 】

【Almost! 】

[Pepe's header goes over the crossbar! 】

After the substitutions, the Portuguese team began to attack fiercely.

B Fei and Ortara made a pass and sent shells in front of the goal.

This time, center back Pepe hit the ball, but unfortunately it was too high.

In the last 15 minutes, Cancelo came on as a substitute, Sanchez's substitution quota had been used up, and the tactical strategy was communicated to everyone.

What needs to be done now is to continue to add more weight to the outflanking point in the middle.

Ronaldo is still Portugal's biggest offensive threat.

He can attract at least two defenders to mark him closely.

In this way, teammates around you can get shooting opportunities.

In the 80th minute, the ball was picked up near the center circle of seat B without any interference from England.

At this time, England had retracted across the board, leaving only Kane walking at the front.

Seat B passed the ball to Fee B on the right. The latter passed with his left foot. After cutting in the middle, he passed the ball with the instep of his right foot from outside the penalty area and sent the ball into the penalty area.

Cristiano Ronaldo has already jumped high, pressing Stones behind him, preparing to fight for the top.

At the critical moment, goalkeeper Pickford stepped out to attack, firmly picked the ball up in mid-air with both hands, and after landing, he lay on the grass.

A dream linkage between Manchester City's two cores almost assisted Ronaldo to seal the deal.

Seeing that his team was being beaten, Rossi took advantage of the goalkeeper to lie on the grass and gestured to the coach on the sidelines.

[Haha, Rossi gestured towards the coach off the court! 】

[Southgate also responded with gestures! 】

[It seems to be saying, are you teaching me how to do something? 】

[In fact, the players have a deeper understanding of the situation on the field than the head coach! 】

[The head coach should also listen to the players’ opinions! 】

At this time, Beckham also stepped forward and whispered in Southgate's ear.

It was known from Southgate's compromising expression and sigh that Rossi's request was agreed to.

Soon, England began to change tactics.

Rossi, Kane and Saka began to press towards the Portuguese backcourt ball holder.

This is the first time England has used frontcourt pressure since the start of the game.

Since the Portuguese team replaced many attackers, the organization in the backcourt was actually very thin, with only one person in seat B.

Once he was locked down, Portugal's offense struggled to advance.

In the 82nd minute, Seat B was pressed by Rossi in the backcourt.

This is not the first time the two have met. As early as in the Champions League, the Manchester City team in seat B was eliminated twice by Rossi's Real Madrid.

Under Rossi's continued pressure, Seat B was unable to launch penetrating passes from the backcourt as before.

When he saw Palinja beside him, he passed the ball without hesitation, then quickly ran forward and reached for the ball.

When Palinha was about to pass the ball, he found that Rossi continued to stick to seat B and intercepted the passing line.

When hesitating, Kane immediately pounced on him.

"careful!"

The roar of his teammates woke up Palinha. He was about to protect the ball with his back, but the veteran Kane took the first step and poked the ball out from behind.

Once the ball is not within the absolute control of the ball holder, it means losing the ball at any time.

Palinha certainly didn't want this to happen. While chasing the ball, he had physical contact with Kane.

In the end, Palinha relied on his defensive experience to get stuck first, then had a physical confrontation with Kane, and immediately fell to the ground.

drop!
The England team committed a foul in the frontcourt.

After the restart, Seat B continued to be pressed closely by Rossi.

It is definitely not impossible for Seat B to get rid of Rossi's entanglement.

But after getting rid of it, they often miss the perfect passing opportunity and there is no suitable route for the ball.

This is the essence of Rossi’s oppression.

The ball came to Palinha's feet again, this time it was Saka who grabbed it.

Unlike Kane, Saka has a flexible body and quick kicks. The tall Palinha will face the risk of being intercepted if he hesitates for half a second.Coach Sanchez feels vaguely uneasy about England's proactive attack.

Generally speaking, defensive counterattack is the safest way for a team to take the lead.

With England's defensive hardness, there is no need to actively press and use offense instead of defense.

Young Sohi, what are you thinking about?
Hey!
There was a sudden noise in the stadium, and then there were cheers and protests, which was very chaotic.

I saw Palinha falling on the turf, and Rossi, who was about to steal the ball, shook his head with slight dissatisfaction after hearing the referee's whistle.

yellow card!

This is Rossi's first yellow card in the World Cup.

The referee more or less punished Rossi for having a bad attitude toward him just now.

Off the pitch, Southgate angrily complained to the pitch.

He believed that this foul did not constitute a card-taking criterion.

The game continued, the Portuguese team kicked off from the backcourt, and Seat B passed the ball to the wing.

After Cancelo cut inside, he still insisted on passing the ball. Ronaldo in the middle broke the defense and jumped up to fight for the top.

When Maguire was defending, he was attracted by Ronaldo's lateral movement.

When Ronaldo suddenly moved forward, Maguire could no longer keep up.

At the critical moment, Pickford abandoned the goal and punched the ball with both hands.

The Portuguese team almost equalized the score.

Sanchez roared with a red face. The team continued to work at high altitude and was really only a little bit away from scoring.

Anxiety and unwillingness were clearly displayed on Ronaldo's face.

Portugal needs to score.

The clearance ball came to the outside. In order to avoid the Portuguese team's continued pressure, the England team's forward pressure group immediately started to press forward.

Entering the last 5 minutes, the Portuguese team must use every precious attack to form an effective threat.

After Felix got the ball, he was not in a hurry to pass the ball.

In the melee just now, both sides were already a little tired and needed to readjust.

The left wing was overcrowded, and Seat B was closely watched by Mount. Felix could only pass the ball back to the midfielder first, and then the midfielder made the transition.

But at the moment Felix passed the ball, Rossi started.

He threw himself desperately in the direction of the pass.

Palinha also noticed that Rossi was approaching quickly. He first turned sideways to meet the ball, trying to use his body to block Rossi's attack, and then passed back.

All this seemed to be a very ordinary operation, but just as Palinha was about to pass the ball after stopping the ball, Rossi came out from the other side, stretched out his kick first, intercepted the ball, and then accelerated and ran.

Near the center circle, defender Ruben Dias, who was trailing behind, had no time to react and saw Rossi running away, unable to catch up.

The English fans in the stadium were excited.

[No foul, England chance! 】

[Rosie single-handedly! 】

[Don’t give the Portuguese team any hope of equalizing! 】

【Entering the restricted area! 】

【Shoot! 】

[The ball is scored, the ball is scored! 】

[The victory and defeat have been divided! 】

【Rosie kills the game! 】

[They advanced to the finals! 】

[GOAL! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! 】

After scoring the goal that sealed the victory, Rossi trotted to the corner area, spread his arms, and slowly bent his legs downward, leaving three shallow stripes on the turf.

The sliding kneel is a very rarely used celebration method by Rossi, because it requires high-speed sprinting speed to fly silkily on the turf.

But Rossi was not. His sliding kneeling only left a few meters of traces on the turf. Everything was based on celebrating while saving physical energy.

Because of this, his sliding kneeling reveals a kind of lazy chic and elegance, which is unique in the history of sliding kneeling in football.

Two goals behind, the extremely disappointed Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo put his hands on his hips and shook his head helplessly.

He is naturally strong, but after Rossi scored, he felt helpless deep in his heart.

This time, he really wants to say goodbye to the World Cup!
