Chapter 307: Scar Man Erupts
"What do you think Vieira was thinking?"
"I think he should have just thought, 'Why don't I have a pistol in my hand, otherwise I'm going to shoot this nasty kid!'"
"Hahaha, that's right, that's what I thought too. It's just a pity that we in Portugal owe him a fantastic assist this time around. That's right, that's what we owe him. ”
"But, alas, we never intend to pay it back, never!" "That's right, never to pay it back, hahaha"
It was clear that the first half could end the situation for France with a lead, much to the satisfaction of the Portuguese commentators. So much so that they were so happy that they began to mock Vieira's "treason" performance in the goal just now with a victorious attitude as a winner.
And, obviously, the Portuguese fans have that mentality as well. The appearance of the first-half lead gave them a huge surprise, and it was the kind that exceeded their expectations. It's no wonder they thought so, after all, the pace of the first half was too flat, except for a few occasional attacks from both sides, it was almost uneventful, which inevitably gave them the impression that their own team couldn't take the French. If it weren't for Lao Lei's sudden flash this time, presumably they would not have happily occupied the Allianz Stadium with their singing voices now, but would only be like the French fans, lifeless and unable to lift their energy.
At this time, their mentality is very optimistic, and they have the impression that since the 02 World Cup. Their own team has hardly ever lost a game when they are ahead. That's why they are now extremely excited about the spirit of claiming to be a winner.
Merely. Lao Lei and the Portuguese players are not as optimistic as they are. Although the French didn't create as many chances in the first half as Portugal and it seemed that they were falling behind, they should have reason to be absolutely confident, but as someone who played the whole first half against this French team, they really couldn't be confident to that point.
Old spicy and difficult, this is a collective evaluation of the Portuguese team towards France. The offensive of the French with a needle in their possession. It doesn't seem to be as prosperous as theirs, and the scene is wonderful, but it hits them in the sore spot every time. Make it impossible for them to parry easily. Moreover, it is also extremely efficient, and never acts rashly, if it is not for a good opportunity. Don't take it lightly. This kind of efficiency-seeking style of play and tactics has fundamentally curbed the source of Portugal's counter-attack. It can be seen that this should be Domenech's defensive arrangement after watching the Portugal game.
It has to be said that it is very effective. His mind was very clear to notice the sharp counter-attack spears hidden behind the magnificent Portuguese offensive. While this may limit France's offensive play somewhat, it's well worth it. Even if you remove the factors such as the scene and the score. The same is true for physical fitness, which is an extremely important criterion. One let Portugal frequently counterattack. France's old men's team has to run back and forth quickly with Portugal's young team, and no matter how you look at it, this will be in favor of Portugal's team led by young players such as Lao Lei.
What's more, even so, the French team is not that Portugal's backline has no way. Even if Lao Lei and Carvalho are there, this is not the iron-blooded Blues defense line that shocked the entire European football world, and it has not yet reached the realm of being comprehensive and leaky. As long as there are loopholes, the frontcourt attack line with Zidane as the core will not be able to threaten the door of Portugal. Although there is Lao Lei who spares his physical strength to sweep back and forth in the hinterland, he is not superhuman, and he cannot appear in time for all the places that need him to appear in time.
For example, Miguel, who became the main attack point of the French team in the first half due to his poor form, is an accurate example of how Lao Lei cannot provide a good defense every time. In addition to several attacks by the French team in the first half of the first half, which were all gaps he found here, at the end of the first half, it was precisely because of his rise that he almost sent Henry a great chance to score a single goal, which scared all the Portuguese people into a cold sweat.
This time, Lao Lei was unable to provide timely defense for his point due to Zidane's containment. Naturally, he was very dissatisfied with this, but he couldn't say anything cruel about Miguel for a long time. Because, that's what is really going on with the Portuguese centre-backs at this stage, in Carvalho and Jorge. Since then, Costa has not seen any eye-catching rising stars, and Miguel is already considered the "taller" of this group of "short ones". Therefore, no matter how dissatisfied Lao Lei is, this is already the best staffing that Portugal can come up with.
Sometimes, Lao Lei has to wonder if his own tastes have been raised too badly by the Chelsea backline, and he has been spoiled. Of course, this was just a reason for him to comfort himself. Seeing that Miguel, who was a little embarrassed by the French, he could only suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart and encourage him constantly. It can't be helped, and it's a helpless move, because this is already the best personnel option that Portugal can give.
I have to say that this is also one of the main reasons why Lao Lei did not show any happy look at the end of the first half. There's no way, the back garden is not reliable, how can he put his mind at ease. Fortunately, there is still a one-goal advantage to give him a little comfort, otherwise, this 15 minutes of halftime is really not very good for Lao Lei. However, no matter what, he is still the most serious face in the dressing room of Portugal at halftime.
Maintaining the advantage, consolidating the defense, and seizing the opportunity to counterattack, the tactical arrangement of midfielder Scolari still does not have any active risk-taking parts, nor does it have any strange moves, which can be regarded as a conservative and stable "yang strategy", which can be regarded as the standard configuration of major games, without any accidents.
Therefore, it is conceivable that at least at the beginning of the second half, the dull pace and atmosphere of the game will not change in any way. I have to say, for the fans. It was a disaster, and it wasn't the situation they were expecting the two to fight. Lao Lei didn't like this very much. But he also has to admit that this is the best option in front of Portugal at the moment, especially when their own backline is not very solid.
For this reason, although he was reluctant in his heart, Lao Lei also secretly decided in his heart that he would put more energy into defense in the second half, if the score situation had not changed. So. As soon as the second half came up, he really did it, basically staying at the back all the time. Help the team defend.
Damn it! This is probably the common sentiment of all neutral fans at the moment, especially for Asian fans who need to stay up late to watch the game in the Far East. Such a slow pace of the game like a stream is a perfect lullaby for them. Merely. It seems that God, his old man can't get used to seeing Portugal and France continue to make these fans suffer from eyeballs. So a scar man who looked like a gangster on the road at a glance, I don't know if he received his order, anyway, it suddenly broke out without warning. All of a sudden, everyone's eyes lit up, and a rare fast pace appeared in the line of sight.
In the 49th minute of the second half, Ribery, who was cruising to the left side, suddenly burst out after receiving the ball, and immediately caught Miguel off guard. Several successive shakes with a distinctly wild road style. Followed by a high-speed start, Ribery left Miguel behind. Then cut directly with the ball.
In this regard, Lao Lei naturally had to give up Zidane and pounce. But who would have thought that Ribery was very self-aware and not impulsive at all. In the face of Lao Lei, he directly played a light collision with Zidane, and took advantage of this to bypass Lao Lei's complement and directly insert himself into the penalty area.
Then, Zidane really understood and did not make any adjustments to stop the ball, but directly picked the football back to the front of Ribery's forward route. If the duo is successful this time, it will inevitably bring a very dangerous offensive to the French team. But, it's a pity that Lao Lei won't let them get their wish easily.
As soon as he saw Ribery's ball-handling options, he immediately thought about what the thug wanted to do. Therefore, when Ribery accelerated forward, he almost did not hesitate, and chose to accelerate forward two big steps at the same time as Ribery. It also happens to be these two big steps, otherwise, Lao Lei's next barb solution may not be so easy to succeed.
After glancing slightly at the sky behind the side, he immediately gritted his teeth and kicked his feet in the process of marching, and the whole person rose into the air, completing a beautiful barb to relieve the siege. Before Ribery received the football, he took the thrilling lead in destroying the football off the sideline.
Sizzle! Damn it! However, success is success, and Lao Lei, who has not yet turned on the devil's muscles, also suffered a lot of pain when he fell to the ground. Because he went all out to clear Zidane's pass, and forgot to protect himself for a while, he could be regarded as a close contact with the field. Fortunately, Lao Lei's waist is indeed not bad, otherwise, he may not be able to withstand this blow.
However, this reassurance is only temporary. I don't know if it was stimulated by this success, Ribery immediately chose to break through with the ball after the next few times. For a while, his rapid advance with the ball suddenly detonated the atmosphere of the entire stadium. Compared with this drowsy and dreary scene, Ribery is like a small fish in this pool of stagnant water, suddenly beaten with chicken blood and crazy, and instantly brought great firepower and popularity to this venue.
And then there was a fire everywhere in the Portuguese backline, and the situation continued. At this time, Lao Lei can also see that Miguel is really determined by this scar man today, almost every time he is dealt with and breaks through, it is like a completely unguarded big colander.
In this way, this is a problem for Lao Lei, Zidane Gariberry, he always has to choose one of them, but after all, he has no skills.
However, just when Lao Lei was in a dilemma, Ribery directly told Lao Lei how to deal with himself, and revealed his weaknesses.
In the 53rd minute of the second half, Miguel, who was continuously disgraced by Ribery, finally lost his temper at this time, and when Ribery wanted to break through him with the ball again, it was directly a ferocious tackle, leaving both people and the ball.
Such a big move immediately caused another skirmish on the court. At this moment, there was some chaos at the scene, but Lao Lei inadvertently suddenly found something interesting on Ribery.
"Shit! !! ”
Firmly staring at Ribery, who was incarnated into an angry Gu * Confused Boy, even if he was dissuaded by his teammates, he still wanted to make a move, and the corner of Lao Lei's mouth suddenly showed a smile.
There is both relief and sudden realization in this smile, and it is more insidious and proud.
He doesn't seem to have a good temper. Well, that's very good!
The more he thought about it, the bigger the smile on the corner of Lao Lei's mouth became, until in the end, it turned into a wolf's smile.
Cunning and dangerous
This is the hungry wolf, smiling when he sees a big piece of fat.
A breath of blood (to be continued......)
