Chapter 417 International A-level warm-up match: Portugal VS Belgium (page 12)

The 2018 World Cup of Fighting Nations is getting closer and closer, and media reviews from various countries have become an important way for fans around the world to pass the time.

After all, you have a lot of spare time after work, and excess energy needs to be consumed.

The authoritative German media "Transfer Market"'s assessment of the worth ranking of World Cup stars in the Warring States has aroused heated discussion.

One of the few disputes is whether Martin is worth 300 million euros.

But such a controversy was bombarded by a large number of fans as soon as it was raised.

the reason is simple.

Martin means championship and honor.

The wealthy teams that are not short of money have long publicly stated that as long as Arsenal is willing to let him go, the transfer fee can be filled in any amount.

Even Martin's personal salary is the same.

Three hundred million euros does seem very exaggerated, but there are many clubs that are not short of money.

That night, the day before the international match between Portugal and Belgium, Martin saw that his friend De Bruyne, who had always liked to talk nonsense on social platforms in the past, did not make a sound. The corner of his mouth raised slightly, and he took the initiative to send an Ins. Ted Browne.

De Bruyne, who was relaxing the night before the game through his mobile phone, immediately received a reminder from Martin. He raised his eyebrows and knew it was not a good thing without even looking.

as predicted!

It’s a challenge for the international warm-up match at the Zurich Stadium tomorrow night!

Considering the repeated setbacks in the past, De Bruyne did not dare to make empty promises, lest he be slapped in the face after the game.

We are all good friends, so why doesn’t Martin know De Bruyne’s habits?

After waiting for a long time and no reply, I must be scared~

So, he posted another one on Ins and asked De Bruyne: Are you scared? Default if you don’t reply.

De Bruyne, who saw Martin attacking again, felt like millions of mythical beasts were passing over his head, but thinking of Martin's sharp tongue, he continued to pretend to be dead.

He knew it, but he still agreed.

You can never wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep.

Since the social platform does not respond, we can only 'taunt' some friends in the game.

Time flies, and one day passes in the blink of an eye.

The Zurich Arena was packed.

Fans who are looking forward to this international warm-up match see the starting lineup and are full of expectations for the next game.

Because both teams almost fielded their strongest lineups.

Belgium has a 3421 formation.

Goalkeeper: Courtois

Defenders: Vertonghen, Kompany, Alderweireld

Midfielder: Carrasco, Dembélé, De Bruyne, Meunier

Attacking midfielder: Hazard, Mertens

Forward: Lukaku

Portugal has a 4231 formation.

……

Before the game, many football experts and fans believed that this seemingly peak matchup was very likely to give some fringe players a chance to express themselves. Unexpectedly, they all fielded almost the strongest lineup on the roster.

Fans are excited and excited about this.

They know that whether the lineup is strong or not will seriously affect the excitement of the game.

During the warm-up time before the game, Martin took the initiative to chat with De Bruyne.

De Bruyne gave an annoyed look: "Why don't you have any discernment?"

"It's just a warm-up match, do you want to be so nervous?"

Martin shrugged.

"I can't beat you in a warm-up match, let alone a formal match?"

De Bruyne left Martin with a back view.

"That makes sense..."

"Then we'll see~"

※※※※※

Belgium and Portugal are both the favorites to win the World Cup among the fighting countries. The difference is that one is the biggest favorite and the other is the favorite.

Based on the overall strength on paper, Belgium is stronger.

However, Portugal has Martin who can truly attack and defend well. Coupled with the characteristic of being undefeated in every appearance, it is easy for people to think that Portugal with Martin will be as invincible as Arsenal with Martin.

"Beep~"

With the referee's whistle, the international A-level warm-up match between Belgium and Portugal officially began.

For this contest, the group stage opponents of the two teams sent specialized coaches to collect intelligence on a follow-up basis, that is, to watch the game live.

Belgium, which has a kick-off advantage, has a relatively simple attack, using De Bruyne's ability to pass and threaten the ball to find the three players on the forward line.

Hazard, Mertens and Likaku.

The most important thing is to find captain Hazard.

But Hazard, who performed very well against other teams, performed poorly against teams with Martin.

William Carvalho and Moutinho usually have difficulty restricting Hazard when they are assisted by their teammates, but with Martin's Portuguese defensive system, it has become particularly strong.

It can't be said to be impregnable, but his defensive ability is indeed a whole level better.

In addition, the help on the offensive end is a qualitative improvement.

De Bruyne works as hard as he did at Manchester City, but the result is always as weak as Manchester City.

Martin's role on both offense and defense is too obvious.

Not only can the defense be very good, but the offense can always participate in time.

Show your ability to attack and defend to the fullest.

"aoaooaooaoooooo——"

The Portuguese fans in the audience let out hysterical shouts, cheering for Martin who performed well.

The Belgian fans frowned, obviously worried about the future game.

Reporters in the mixed zone also gave their shots to Martin.

There is no doubt that he has been the best player since the beginning of the game.

Time passed by second by second, and soon it came to the 0th minute of the first half. The scoreboard showed that the score was still 0:.

There was no change in the score, largely due to the forwards being in top form.

Ronaldo continuously wasted excellent opportunities created by Martin.

However, as time passed, Ronaldo's condition gradually improved.

Martin also continued to adjust his position after the team found a tacit understanding, getting closer and closer to the goal guarded by Courtois.

Taking advantage of the dead ball opportunity, the on-site director gave the camera to Martin.

I saw that he had reached the position close to the second forward in front of the top of the penalty area.

De Bruyne and Dembele were responsible for marking, and Alderweireld, who was pulled out to help defend, was still watching eagerly from the side.

The defense attaches great importance, but Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo is also nearby, which makes Alderweireld reluctant to get too close to avoid being penetrated by Portugal's other offensive methods.

After several passes, the football came to Moutinho's feet.

He saw Martin stick his butt back, push away Dembele, suddenly start reaching for the ball, quickly shake the arch of his foot, and pass the ball.
