"Wayne. Rooney! One more goal! Just seven minutes into the second half, England scored their third goal of the game! That's an unexpected advantage! ”

Even John this time. Mortenson's tone showed unconcealed surprise.

Not only himself, but probably even the most die-hard England fans did not expect their team to lead Portugal so easily.

You must know that Portugal has always had the reputation of "the Brazilian team of Europe". Being able to beat the European Brazil team so badly shows that England's strength is extraordinary. Maybe they are no longer the rumored "second-rate Europeans"?

Wayne Rooney, who scored a brace in the game, was so excited, as were his teammates.

However, as Donn celebrated his goal, he was keenly aware of the fact that the Portuguese players were not as depressed as they had been at the end of the first half. It stands to reason that after being three goals down, they should look dead, but looking at it now, their expressions did not continue to deteriorate.

What did Queiroz say to them at half-time?

Donn didn't think about it too much. For him, a one-goal lead is the least safe score, but a three-goal lead is enough for him to sit in his chair and watch the play. He didn't believe Portugal could turn the game back from three goals down, that would be amazing.

Unless you're going to play with me, God.

Thinking of this, Donn looked up at the sky, and there was nothing in the dark blue night sky.

As the captain of the Portuguese national team, Cristiano. Ronaldo is not a leader-type figure. But at this moment, he gathered his teammates.

"It's not time to give up yet! If we lose to England here, that's the end of our European Championship journey! They're going to be down to three goals now, so that's our chance! Surprise them! ”

He clenched his fists and stretched them out, and his teammates clenched their fists and put them on it. More and more fists are stacked on top of each other. It represents the determination of the Portuguese.

Ronaldo is a year old Chinese New Year's Eve this year, and he can play one more World Cup, and it is difficult to say about the European Championship. He knew that his state would inevitably decline, this was the law, and no one could escape it. So he doesn't want to leave regrets at this European Cup, they came with the ambition to conquer Europe, if the first game is disgraced by England, what else to talk about conquering Europe?

This game must not be lost!

※※※

In the 52nd minute, England led Portugal 3-0. It seems Tony. Don does have a hand. No more George. Wood's England is even better, it's unexpected......"

The German coach muttered in the stands. Today's game was really rewarding. Originally, after Wood's injury, the Germans' intelligence believed that Portugal was the biggest threat to their largest group. Now it seems that the intelligence has been updated, and the judgment must be revised.

Other like-minded people like him include spies from Spain, France, and the Netherlands...... And so on and so on and so on and so on the other intelligence gatherers who insisted on staying in the stands.

In the field of the national team before, there was a popular opinion: no matter Tony. What a brilliant achievement Donn has achieved at the club, the club and the national team are also two completely different worlds. The excellent performance of his team in the qualifiers is also hungry for nothing, because the opponents in that group are just too weak...... Danish football and Serbian football have long since declined.

So in fact, Don has not proven his ability to coach the national team, and those bigwigs who coach the national team are mostly disdainful of him. A frivolous young man, a successful man who relies on the English media...... Here we still have to talk about the actual results.

Now, Tony. Don used such a beautiful 3:0 to make those people withdraw their skeptical gaze. It was a beautiful first battle.

If they knew each other well, they would have gotten together to comment on some of the game's verdicts so far. But now these "spies" can only give an evaluation in their hearts:

"Tony. Donn is strong and needs special attention. Queiroz is finished, his contract expires after the European Championship, and after watching such a clumsy fifty minutes, I believe that the Portuguese Football Federation will not prepare a new contract for him. He completely lost control of the team, and Tony. Donn's direct conversation was completely inferior......"

Some people have eyes on the president of the Portuguese Football Federation, Madaire, who is sitting on the rostrum watching the game. The old man's face was really not good-looking......

In front of the whole world, his team was humiliated by the English by three goals, and it was impossible for anyone to laugh.

In fact, Madal's heart has indeed scolded all eight generations of Queiroz's ancestors. England's FA CEO Sean. Mr. Barclay sat right next to him, smiling as bright as a spring flower at this moment, which was simply a naked mockery. He just couldn't swallow it.

The somewhat blessed Englishman had already cheered three times in front of him, what the!

※※※

Ronaldo and Queiroz were both good at predicting, and England inevitably slackened after a three-goal lead. Whether it's defending or counter-attacking, they're not as aggressive as they used to be.

This is an opportunity for the Portuguese, and if they don't take it, their defeat is truly irretrievable......

The Portuguese gambled on all their hopes in this game and came out of the hole. They didn't care how they were going to defend England's fourth quick counter-attack. Because this consideration is meaningless, if you can't get a goal back at this time, it doesn't make a difference whether the opponent scores ten goals or one.

The Portuguese's feronful attack made England a bit of a mess and left Tony behind. Donn was surprised – he didn't expect that Queiroz's side really wanted to go against the odds.

"Ronaldo's middle forced a breakthrough...... He was taken by Michael. Johnson trips to the ground, free kick! …… Ronaldo took the penalty himself, he stood behind the ball...... Run-up, kick-up shot – it's in! The ball is in!! ”

“gooooooooooooooooooooooal——！！！” The Portuguese narrator roared excitedly.

The Portuguese fans, who had been silent in the stands for most of the half, also jumped up from their seats.

"Portugal pulled a goal back...... It was a surprise, but it didn't change the outcome of the game, it was just a face-saving goal for the Portuguese fans. "John. Mortenson said. He had a point, England fans weren't upset or angry about the goal. They still have a smile on their faces – and a two-goal lead.

Madair stood up, waved his fist for a moment, and sat down again. After a brief moment of excitement, he was still frustrated. His team needs three more goals to win...... It's just too difficult.

The goal was not conceded by Donne, who stood up and cursed to express his displeasure. However, he didn't take this goal too seriously, and like those England fans, he felt that he still had a two-goal advantage in his hand and had nothing to fear.

However, this goal gave the Portuguese a boost of fighting spirit and confidence.

Just four minutes later, they were back on the back burner and Benelo sent the ball forward. This time it wasn't Ronaldo who pulled the ball to the wing, it was their striker Yannick. Jarrow (yannick_djalo). This not tall black boy was very fast, and after receiving the football, he also ripped apart the England defence.

Then instead of going down to the ground or cutting inside, he suddenly got up and crossed!

England's backline is not tight, otherwise they would not have been torn apart by a Jallow and they clearly don't care as much about Portugal's attack as they used to, and Ronaldo's free-kick didn't give them a wake-up call.

Jalllow's cross didn't take the ball to goal, but into the box. Where, Ronaldo, who suddenly appeared in the middle, was leaping high, he was 1.88 meters tall, he bounced well, and occasionally scored with a header......

Jallow crosses...... Ronaldo jumps up with his header!! ”

The ball was hit by him and flew towards the goal. Joe. Hart had a problem with his positioning, he was defending the back post, but he didn't expect Ronaldo to top the front post...... England's international flew to save but didn't touch the ball at all.

Everyone saw the ball grazing the near post and crashing into the net......

"The ball is in!! Second goal! Ronaldo scored twice!! "The commentators in Portugal are crazy," gooooo!!!oo It's incredible! We've pulled two goals back and we're just one goal behind! Anything is possible! Come on, Portugal!! ”

After the goal, Ronaldo was extremely excited, he frantically waved his fists and roared into the sky. So much so that his teammates did not dare to approach him for a while, for fear that his fist would hurt the innocent.

"That's ......," Mortenson didn't know what to say for a moment. In just four minutes, their lead went from three goals to one, and it turned into the "world's least safe scoreline" ...... the tenacious Portuguese, and England were a little proud of the opposition! It's not just "some pride to underestimate the enemy."

It was as if an earthquake was going on at the Camp Nou, and the Portuguese fans were stomping their feet in the stands and cheering wildly, and even the camera cameras were shaking. They saw hope of victory over England.

Come on, have an earth-shattering reversal!

The Portuguese are partying, Tony. Don was a little angry. He got up from his seat, waving his arms and shouting. He was unhappy with the performance of his players in those four minutes. "You bastards! Now I'll see how you guys end! ”

The faces of the members of the England coaching staff also became solemn.

The England players stood on the pitch with blank expressions, feeling incredulous at the scoreline, and many of them probably hadn't turned back yet.

However, the faces of those who "watched the excitement" in the stands showed smiles one after another. It's a lot of fun......

“…… Tony. Donn's team, like his own temper, has been somewhat shaky and has had ups and downs. The fact that Portugal were able to score two goals in four minutes when they were leading by three goals is very telling...... "The German's little book has added another one.

※※※

On the podium, Madal cheered from the bottom of his heart, and his mood was very different now than it was four minutes ago. Quite simply, he saw the hope of winning, and it was right in front of him...... He could grab it as soon as he stretched out his hand. He didn't care what Barclays, the Englishman, would think of his frantic celebrations. He's just there to show off!

Go Portugal!

He roared inwardly.

※※※

Donn threw down the sentence "I'll see how you guys end" and then sat in his seat with some anger, waiting for the overwhelmed players in the field. However, he did not last long, and he quickly got up from his seat and walked to the sidelines. Yelled inside, "What are you doing? It's time for you to cheer me up, right? Gentlemen! We're only one goal ahead, and if you don't do something about it, tomorrow we'll all be the laughing stock of the whole world!! ”

"If you're three goals ahead, you can still lose the game! We will be the first! Do you think it's glorious!? ”

He didn't make any tactical adjustments. Because there is no problem with the tactics at all, what goes wrong is the mentality of the executor. As long as the mentality is adjusted, the tactics will still work.

And he knows that as long as the mentality of the players can be adjusted, the initiative in this game is actually still in his hands.

The Portuguese will not be able to accept a 3-2 defeat and will continue to attack, pressing heavily in the hope of equalising or even overtaking England when they are collectively distracted......

This is a dangerous time for England. But it's also a time of opportunity...... It's up to anyone who catches it. So he has to wake up the England players right away.

Not all England players could hear Donne's words clearly, but they all knew the boss was angry.

He did have reason to be angry, and a three-goal lead turned into a one-goal lead...... What a shame!

※※※

The game restarted, and Portugal really launched a tidal wave of attacks against England, wave after wave. England could only shrink their defense, which was very embarrassing.

But behind the mess, Donn saw what he wanted – his players were back in shape, and as long as they were in shape, England's defence would be fine.

Portugal also quickly found their opponents back to normalcy and were not hit by the previous two goals in a row. After weighing the pros and cons, they weakened the siege of England because they had to start rethinking their beware of England's counter-attacks......

England then organised several counter-attacks, all of which were intercepted by the Portuguese backline led by Pepe. The game relapsed into a stalemate after a short **.

The managers of the two teams also kept changing their postures on the sidelines.

At first, Don always stood on the sidelines, looking at the arena with some nervousness. Queiroz, on the other hand, sat in his place and seemed confident.

But as time went on, the score was still 3:2, and after rubbing his ass back and forth on the dugout a few times, Queiroz finally stood up, walked to the sidelines, made various gestures, and an anxious look gradually appeared on his somewhat dark face.

Don turned around and sat back, cocking Erlang's legs.

As the game time went by, things could only get more and more in his favor. He knew he was getting close to his first European Championship win minute by minute.

What is an ugly scene? What are the odds of a narrow victory? That's just an episode in the process, and as long as the result is good, it's good.

Just because Donn was able to take his composure doesn't mean his players were comfortable with the result – a three-goal lead would have allowed them to finish the game beautifully, so that no one would ever suspect them of being second-rate in Europe. Unexpectedly, the Portuguese's counterattack in four minutes destroyed everything they had done before. No one will remember their three-goal lead, which can only be a joke and a footnote to the current scoreline. Even if they win, people will just say "they came close to losing the game with a three-goal lead and narrowly won...... It's terrible! "Sure enough, it is second-rate in Europe, a group of arrogant maniacs touted by the English media......" "It is completely Chinese porcelain, beautiful in appearance, and vulnerable." The Portuguese were so unlucky......"

The thought of receiving such an evaluation made them unable to tolerate letting the game end like this. Now they would rather have more game time than the Portuguese so they can continue to extend their scores.

Donn used up his last substitution in the 80th minute, using Chris. Cohen replaced Downing, after replacing Walcott with Bentley and Gareth. Barry replaces Steven Gerrard.

The two wide players he brought on were both players who were physical, could return in time and were willing to do so, which showed his attitude of defending in the final stages.

But the players on the pitch don't think so. Enraged by the Portuguese, they were looking for a late counter-attack, like a pack of hungry wolves teased by food.

※※※

Eighty-sixth minute. The Portuguese attacked at once. Goalkeeper Patricio kicked the ball into the midfield.

Mitchel, the tallest man on the field, won the header battle. He gave the ball to Gareth Barry.

Barry passes the ball to Michael in front. Johnson. After the Portuguese found out that the ball had changed hands, he hurriedly returned to the defense, and three players pounced on Johnson who had the ball in the first place.

Johnson, a Man City Academy player, showed a rare composure at this time, he did not rush forward with the ball, but turned around, drawing the opponent's defensive attention to his side, and then he saw Wayne. Rooney thrust in from behind!

If you pass the ball, it's a single shot!

Thinking of this, he shook his ankle and passed the ball forward.

Wayne Rooney just stepped in and got inside the middle of the two Portuguese centre-backs.

"Nice straight stopper, empty dang!"

After Rooney dribbled the ball into the penalty area, he saw the goalkeeper Patricio and shot from a distance!

The football was blocked by Patricio...... England fans put their heads in their hands and regretted the attack.

But England's offensive didn't end there!

Chris, who had just played six minutes. Cohen appeared on the left side of the penalty area and the ball flew in that direction.

Patricio was still lying on the ground, and he saw Cohen with a look of horror on his face. With both hands and feet, he crawled to the goal behind him.

Cohen didn't have a single Portuguese defender around him, and Johnson and Wayne Rooney helped him attract all the Portuguese players.

He suddenly slowed down on the run, adjusted his cadence, and picked up his left foot just as the ball fell......

Direct Volley!!

Patricio flew in again, but the ball flew in front of his eyes and crashed into the net......

"The ball went in ——!" Mortenson's voice was so excited that it was even slightly distorted. "Chris. Cohen scored his first goal for his country! 4：2！ England seal the win!! ”

Quiroz, who was standing on the sidelines, only felt that his knees were weak and his body shook.

And Tony, who was still watching the play with Erlang's legs crossed just now. By this time, Don had rushed to the sidelines, raising his arms high to declare his victory.

The road to conquering Europe, starting with defeating Portugal 4:2!
