PS: PS: In reality, Portugal's opponent would have been the Netherlands, but here I made a change.

When Maniche helped Portugal take the lead, the game officially fell into the hands of Portugal and Lao Lei. Despite their origins in South American football, Mexico's style of football is not similar to Brazil's and Argentina's attacking style of football, but rather a steady counter-attacking tactic, except that they focus on delicate ground pushing rather than England's rough and furious counter-attacking style.

In this way, the premature deficit is naturally in the score, making them completely lose the strategic initiative. Then, the rhythm of the game changed to the more familiar breaking of dense defenses and resisting high-intensity pressing. Although the delicate foot skills of the Mexican team are slightly different from the teams they have encountered before, they are still enough to make a big impact.

Next, what Lao Lei and Portugal did was like simply putting a formula into it and solving a mathematical problem, unless he was careless, otherwise, he would basically not make mistakes. In addition, with Lao Lei, the core and brain of a perpetual motion machine, such a situation is even more difficult to happen.

Although the process of winning this victory may be relatively long, it is in the hands of Lao Lei and Portugal. In the slow pace of the game, Portugal, under the organization of Lao Lei, kept testing Mexico's defense while firmly controlling the situation. This is very similar to the water drop stone wearing, but one thing is completely different, that is, what Lao Lei and Portugal are dripping with now is concentrated sulfuric acid, or even aqua regia.

After conceding the goal, Mexico did not become flustered. But Portugal's mercury-like advance and rock-solid control have left Mexicans at a loss. They are the best team in Group D to challenge Portugal. But in the face of the obvious disparity in strength, there is still very little they can do.

With hard power frontal crushing. Portugal had another great chance in the 14th minute of the first half. This time, Lao Lei came to the left side and cooperated with Ronaldo. Although the aura of the two people is still incompatible, for the two masters, as long as they are willing, they will always be able to rub out dazzling sparks. The two faced Mexico's four-man defence, starting with Ronaldo not stop the ball after receiving a pass from Lao Lei. Directly with the back heel beautifully knocked the football to the old ray who immediately stepped forward.

And Lao Lei's performance is even more amazing, with his speed to get in front of the football first, he did not try to stop the ball under the interference of the Mexican defenders around him, but directly knocked the football back with his back heel. There, Ronaldo had already accelerated around the defenders around him and cut head-on into Mexico's penalty area.

The continuous backheel knock between the two not only made the Portuguese fans can't help but let out loud cheers, but also made the Mexican defense, which has the advantage of numbers, completely dizzy. So, when Ronaldo catches the ball. Immediately with the outside of his left foot, when he dialed the football to Lao Lei, who had already accelerated strongly to the bottom, the entire Mexican defense line had been beaten by the continuous cooperation of the two.

Because Lao Lei had already accelerated into the Mexican penalty area, the Mexican right back Salcido, who was following Lao Lei, did not dare to act rashly. can only interfere with Lao Lei's next ball handling action as close as possible. But after Lao Lei used two passing feints in a row, he still did not prevent Lao Lei from successfully passing the football to the middle of the goal. As Portugal's starting lone arrow striker today, it was not Pauletta. It was Postiga who was better at heading, so Lao Lei also chose the high-altitude ball with confidence.

Outcome. Postiga didn't disappoint the old ray either, taking advantage of his running position to shake off the Mexican centre-back, and he leaped high in front of goal. He made a very powerful header that left Mexico goalkeeper Sanchez unable to react. 2:0, taking advantage of Lao Lei's assist and Postiga's goal, Portugal logically extended the score. After two group games, the form of the Portuguese team is getting hotter and hotter, and until this game, Mexico is clearly no longer a threat to Portugal on the field.

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL！！！ Cristiano and Reima's clever combination on the left side of the box was a goal that had already been scored, and all Postiga had to do was put the ball into the back of the net. It's so exciting! This is our football in Portugal!! The Portuguese commentator shouted with enjoyment.

Meanwhile, Argentina and the Netherlands, who are already preparing for their final group game in Frankfurt, have both turned off their televisions, which are broadcasting the Portugal match live. In their respective conference rooms, both teams were organizing the whole team to watch the premiere of the game. As for the reason for turning off the TV, it is also very simple, that is, in their opinion, Portugal will qualify as the first in Group D, which is already a sure thing. At the same time, they also need to start thinking about whether they should go all out to be the first place and whether they should avoid a direct collision with Portugal in the round of 16.

While the two teams were engrossed in their intra-squad meetings, the match between Portugal and Mexico was still going on. Falling behind by two goals was a very bad thing for Mexico, but fortunately, Iran and Angola, who started at the same time, still maintained a 0-0 scoreline. For Mexico, things have not yet reached the worst of the irreparable. But at the same time, it has to be admitted that their situation is already very dangerous, because if Angola suddenly leads, then their chances of elimination will be very high.

After the 30th minute of the first half, they began to try to strengthen their attack, but it did not have much effect. When the midfielder led by Lao Lei was firmly in control of the situation, the phrase that it was difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice became the truest portrayal of Mexico's frontcourt attack line. Truth be told, Mexico's fast-paced ground play up front is still very attacking, but the team's sparse possession of the ball has given them few chances to threaten Portugal's backline.

This Portuguese defence is strong in anticipation and awareness, but to be honest, they are not too resistant to strong onslaught. It has not been exposed before. It's just because of Lao Lei, Ronaldo and others in the midfield control and pressing ability. Give them a rare chance to face the onslaught of the opposing attack line head-on. Even in the group stage, the most conflicted match was with Iran. They didn't actually come under much pressure on the back line either.

This may become a hole in Portugal's defense, but at least this hole will not be exposed now, because in terms of size, Mexico and Portugal can only be regarded as half a catty, and a purely technical team like Mexico should be regarded as Portugal's favorite touch.

Although the attack did not achieve much effect, Mexico's still solid defense did not allow Portugal to expand the score again. Although there are also reasons why Portugal deliberately released water and kept it under the organization of Lao Lei. But the Mexican backline's own tenacity played a bigger role.

After the break, as soon as Lao Lei came up in the second half, he immediately exerted his strength, wanting to help the team score another goal before he was substituted to ensure the victory of the game. They will be substituted around the 60th minute of the second half, a decision that Scolari informed the coaching staff of Ray before the game. Although Lao Lei felt that the coaching staff's worries about his physical fitness were too unfounded, after all, after the Champions League match with Barcelona. He barely played a few games. But on such a small issue, Lao Lei did not want to rashly rebel against Scolari's authority as a manager, so he nodded in agreement.

Since there is a definite time limit, Lao Lei wants to spend 15 minutes in this time. Let's see if we can help the team kill the suspense of the game. It's a pity that he still hasn't used his full strength. This goal was not accomplished in the end. Motivated by the goal of qualifying, the Mexican players showed extremely high morale and fighting spirit at the start of the second half. With the Portuguese players somewhat obviously relaxed, Lao Lei's efforts alone did not get much good results.

If. If this is an important game, Lao Lei may also criticize his teammates at this time to cheer them up. But considering the unimportant nature of the game, he let it go. Although this wasted some of his efforts, he didn't care too much.

When the clock ticked for the 60th minute of the second half, Ray was ready to be replaced by Scolari with Thiago. Soon after, Scolari made two more substitutions to change Portugal's formation into a more stable, defensively defensive 4-3-2-1 formation. Obviously, holding on to a win and securing top spot in the group is the main tactical goal for Portugal to follow. It's a tactical strategy that will disappoint the fans, but it will be useful for the team, and Portugal really don't need to spend too much pressure on Mexico, because the real excitement is that a decisive knockout match is just around the corner.

In the 85th minute of the second half, Miguel gave the Mexicans a penalty with a stupid handball in the box, which was easily converted by Mexican striker Bravo to help Mexico pull one back. This unexpected change made the last few minutes of the game suddenly burst into flames, and the morale-boosting Mexico began to press Portugal to besiege for a while. However, fortunately, Portugal finally managed to hold on to the score of 2:1 and won the first place in Group D.

Meanwhile, Mexico secured their second place in Group D thanks to a draw between Angola and Iran. Overall, it's a win-win game for all.

And this is precisely the reason why Lao Lei can't show any passion for this game, and everyone is happy, he doesn't like it.

Half cheering, half booing, half laughing, half tearing, that's what he loves.

Fortunately, he will soon usher in this kind of competition, because the knockout rounds of the World Cup are like this again, there is always a winner and a loser, and there is no so-called happy ending.

One day after the match, the high-profile final group leg of Argentina and the Netherlands was also decided. Relying on a controversial penalty, the Dutchman scored Argentina.

The Pampas Eagles will face Portugal in the round of 16!

As soon as this news came out, it instantly detonated the entire world football world, and this is a duel that everyone is looking forward to.

The same is true for Lao Lei, who saw the game in front of the TV.

At that time, the battle blood in his body was making trouble again!

Boom, a sky-high fire was lit!! (To be continued......)
