250. Changes in the Portuguese team

It was only at 6 p.m. that the players of the Portuguese national team left the hotel and boarded the stadium for the city of Bloemfontein. The bus drove for more than half an hour and finally arrived at the scene, and by the time the bus of the Portuguese national team arrived at the scene, there were already many fans waiting outside the stadium.

The fans at the scene saw the arrival of the bus of the Portuguese national team, and the fans at the scene were extremely excited, they waved the flags in their hands frantically, shouting Portugal and calling the names of the players of the Portuguese national team.

Qiu Ze sat on the bus and clearly heard the sound of fans outside shouting his name, which made Qiu Ze very excited. Every time at this time, Qiu Ze was very excited, and even Qiu Ze himself didn't quite understand that Weishenme would be like this?

As the Portuguese national team bus stopped, the excited fans and reporters rushed to the bus door and surrounded it, eager to see their idols, cheering and howling wildly.

At this time, the security personnel of the stadium had already been prepared, walked quickly to the door of the bus, and quickly used the human wall to isolate a jump passage, and at this time, the door of the bus of the Portuguese national team opened.

The first to come down from above was Nani, who was wearing black sunglasses and had a cold face, cool. He waved coldly and greeted the fans, then sped through the tunnel and rushed into the players' tunnel. Then came Cristiano 61 Ronaldo.

As soon as Cristiano 61 Ronaldo appeared, the cries and exclamations at the scene were several tens of decibels, and even some female fans could be heard crying with joy, it can be seen that the popularity of Cristiano 61 Ronaldo is really high.

Cristiano 61 Ronaldo wanted to wave to the side, greet the fans, and then frantically rushed into the players' tunnel.

Immediately after Qiu Ze walked down, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly rose a notch, the whole audience shouted Qiu Ze's name, and the fans squeezed forward frantically, hoping to interact with Qiu Ze at close range. It's a pity that Qiu Ze didn't stay here, and after greeting the fans, he also rushed into the players' tunnel.

The players to the Portuguese national team all rushed into the players' tunnel, and the Portuguese national team buses drove away. The bus of the American team arrived at the scene, and there were not many fans at the scene, and there were not many reporters.

The U.S. team's field was really too shabby compared to the Portuguese national team. However, the players of the American team didn't care about that, they didn't come here to compete for momentum, they came to compete for the championship.

The U.S. national team players quickly rushed into the tunnel and into the locker room. It's already seven o'clock, and it's only an hour before the game starts.

The players on both sides hurried out to warm up, Qiu Ze led the players of the Portuguese national team to warm up off the field for more than half an hour, and then they returned to the locker room to listen to the coach's tactics and cheer.

"CCTV. Cctv! Hello fans, spectators, friends. This is CCTV Channel 5, today I bring you a match between the Portuguese national team and the United States national team in the semifinals of the South African Confederations Cup, I am Liu Jianhong. "Today, China Central Television also broadcast the game live.

"This match is the first semi-final of this Confederations Cup, against the Portuguese national team and the United States national team." CCTV's commentator Xu Yang also said.

At this time, Qiu Ze and the players of the Portuguese national team were listening to Queiroz's teachings in the dressing room.

Queiroz has been reminding the players of the Portuguese national team: "The U.S. national team is not a belly team. They have come so far, this is a reflection of their strength, you must not underestimate them, you must cheer me up and deal with them like we did against Brazil. You know? ”

Qiu Ze couldn't remember the first time Queiroz had said such a thing, and now his ears were almost calloused. However, Qiu Ze did take it to heart, the U.S. national team is really not a team that can be underestimated.

"Don't worry, sir. You don't know how many times you've said it, can we remember? Over there, Nani of the Portuguese national team immediately said that it was the truth, and he was already a little annoyed to hear it. He felt that the head coach Queiroz was not making a bit of a fuss, muttering vigorously, annoyed to death.

Queiroz looked up and glared at Nani fiercely, before saying, "Now that you've heard clearly, remember." It's better not to make such a mistake in the game, otherwise, I've got you guys to look good at. Queiroz said with all seriousness.

"Got it, boss!" The players of the Portuguese national team nodded in agreement. And Cristiano 61 Ronaldo's eyes were staring at Qiu Ze, I don't know what this guy is thinking in his head?

At this time, on the other side, the head coach of the American team, Bradley, was also giving a lecture to the players of the American team, and he said: "The Portuguese national team is not an easy team to play against, you must defend firmly first, and then wait for the opportunity to counterattack. You must be stable when defending, and you must hate when you counterattack! If you find an opportunity to fight back, you have to fight back resolutely, understand? ”

"Understood!" The players of the U.S. team stood up and shouted in unison.

The head coach of the U.S. team, Bradley, was very pleased with the performance of the players, he nodded, and then motioned for the players to play.

The U.S. players rushed out of the locker room and into the tunnel. The players of the Portuguese national team were already waiting there, seemingly waiting for them to come out. The players of the U.S. team immediately walked over and stood on the other side, ready to play.

'Now the players from both sides are in the tunnel and the game is about to start. This game is a very important game for both teams, but in everyone's opinion, the chances of the Portuguese national team winning should be better, and everyone is looking forward to them. CCTV commentator Liu Jianhong said.

"But we can't underestimate the U.S. either. Although they lost by three goals against Brazil. In fact, the U.S. team played very well in that game, and they still have the strength. If the Portuguese national team takes their opponents lightly, then they will definitely be punished. CCTV commentator Xu Yang said.

"Indeed it is! Haode, the players of both sides came out under the leadership of the referee, and the first thing to do was the ceremony of playing the national anthem. Liu Jianhong, a CCTV commentator, said, "The first thing to do was the Portuguese national anthem. ”

The Portuguese national anthem immediately sounded, and the Portuguese fans and players sang along. Qiu Ze stood in the middle without singing the national anthem, his eyes were firmly looking ahead, his face was serious, as if he had sensed that this was definitely not an easy game.

And Cristiano 61 Comrade Ronaldo did not sing the national anthem, he just quietly stared at the Portuguese flag, and the expression on his face was very serious.

"Haode, the national anthem of the Portuguese national team is over, and now it is the national anthem of the United States that will be performed." Liu Jianhong, a CCTV commentator, said again.

The stadium immediately sounded that the United States had not been closed, and the American fans all stared at the national flag with solemn expressions, and kept singing along with their mouths, and when the love was thick, tears flowed down themselves.

"Haode, the national anthems of both sides have been played, and then the captains of both sides followed the referee to pick the side. At this time, I will introduce to you the starting lists of both sides in this game. CCTV commentator Liu Jianhong said.

"First of all, let me introduce you to the starting list of the American team today, Bradley sent a four-four-two formation today." Liu Jianhong, a CCTV commentator, began to introduce the starting list of the American team, "In the goalkeeper position is Howard. ”

"In the back four are Spiket, Demerit, Oneu, Bonstein, which is one of the main backlines of the US team in this Confederations Cup, and there are no changes in this game." Liu Jianhong, a CCTV commentator, elaborated.

"Next up is the midfield four, which are Clark, Dempsey, Bradley Jr. and Ferhrapple." Liu Jianhong, a CCTV commentator, said, "Everyone is right, this little Bradley is the son of Bradley, the head coach of the American team." ”

'Then there's the forward position, they're Altidore and Donovan. Liu Jianhong, a commentator on CCTV's sports channel, said, "This is the starting list of the American team today. ”

"There is one thing in this list that makes Da a little confused, and that is that the star player of the American team, Beasley, did not appear in the starting list today, and the talented player who plays for PSV Eindhoven sat on the bench, and it seems that the old Bradley still has a hand." Liu Jianhong, a commentator on CCTV's sports channel, said.

"Jianhong has just finished introducing the starting list of the United States team today, and now I will introduce to you the starting list of the Portuguese national team today." Xu Yang, a guest commentator on CCTV's sports channel, immediately said.

"Today the Portuguese national team coach Queiroz put out a 4231 formation, which is not any change from the previous game." Xu Yang, a commentator on CCTV's sports channel, looked at the information in his hand and said, "In the goalkeeper's position, it's still Ricardo." ”

"And then in the back four are Paul, 61, Ferreira, Pepe, Alves and Bosingwa." Xu Yang, a guest commentator on CCTV's sports channel, was also shocked when he saw such a list, "Wow." That's a big change. ”

'Carvalho wasn't in the starting line-up today, I think it was a surprise to a lot of people. There was no news of Carvalho's injury before the game, so why can't he play? And today Bosingwa started, which is also a big change, the guy has only been a substitute before, and none of them have been starts. Xu Yang, a guest commentator on CCTV Sports Channel, said in surprise.

'And then in the midfield position is Veloso and Deco. Seeing this, Xu Yang was shocked again, there are really a lot of changes today, "Joao 61 Moutinho Jintai, who has been starting before, is sitting on the bench, and the veteran Deco starts." ”

"In the front three positions are Quaresma, Qiu Ze and Cristiano 61 Ronaldo." Xu Yang, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, was already numb with shock at this time, "Wow, another change, Nani, who has been starting before and has performed well, sat on the bench today, and Quaresma replaced him, I don't know what kind of consideration Queiroz is in?" ”

Yes, Xu Yang is really puzzled, even the fans in front of the TV and at the scene feel very confused. What exactly is Queiroz doing today? Could it be that Carvalho and others of the Portuguese national team are injured? Or is there something else Queiroz has to offer?

"Okay, now it's time to introduce the player in the Portuguese national team's striker, he is Hugo 61 Almeida." Xu Yang, a guest commentator on CCTV's sports channel, said, "There has also been a change here, and Nuno 61 Gomez did not appear in the starting list at the same time today. This time, Queiroz directly changed the candidates for four positions, is this change a bit too big? ”
