Text-only text has the fastest update speed
After playing Luxembourg, the Portuguese national team flew to Russia in preparation for an away game against the Bears.
Speaking of that, Quaresma thought that Russia would be the strongest team in the group except Portugal, but in the end he was wrong. Judging from the current situation, it is quite difficult for Russia to compete for the second team. Slovakia performed better than Russia.
Of course, who will get the group second, Quaresma does not care at all, anyway, Portugal is sure that the group first qualify directly, this need not doubt at all.
However, in this game, Scolari chose to rotate, placing Quaresma and Cristiano Ronaldo on the bench. The starting forwards are Figo and Simao.
This is normal, even if the players are fighting for the country, but the national team should also properly consider the interests of the club, the schedule is very close, the players are not far away to participate in the war. It's a bit unreasonable for the team to make a solid out of ten, and die the main star.
So Scolari's rotation strategy is also an explanation for the club.
However, from the perspective of Scolari's current platoon formation, it seems that he is more inclined to put Quaresma and Cristiano Ronaldo into the main lineup at the same time, and in this way, Figo may have to sacrifice himself to a certain extent. Too.
Maybe Figo also felt the pressure, so the game was very active from the beginning. It is not like the 33-year-old veteran. Dribbling breakthrough crosses, all kinds of sharp, even a very threatening inward shot in the first half , Not at the pinnacle of his career, as if the world footballer who is omnipotent on the wing is back.
The Portuguese fans watching the game in front of the TV are all very excited. As a representative of Portuguese football, Figo has brought them too much joy and glory. They hope that Figo can always play the most beautiful football.
However, Scolari, who stood on the sidelines, was even more troublesome. In the Portuguese national team, he does not have to worry about no one at all. He only struggles because he does not know which player to use, because there are too many excellent stars in Portugal. .
Portugal led the home team Russia 1:0 in the first half. Pauleta was not efficient in scoring in the national team, but today he opened up.
However, speaking of Portugal, it did not have much advantage in the scene. Russia at home always insisted on its simple and direct style of play. It did not compromise any opponents. It was extremely impactful. In the first half, it was passed quickly through several times. The ball hits the Portuguese goal. If it is not the striker's poor shot, I am afraid that Portugal has fallen behind.
In order to ensure victory, not long after the second half began, Scolari sent Quaresma and Ronaldo at the same time, Simao came off, but Figo remained on the field and temporarily hit the front waist.
In order to arrange for the three major wingers to play at the same time, Scolari is also painstakingly, let Figo hit the middle of the road is one of his attempts, perhaps this may be a breakthrough!
Scolari looked forward to the surprise. In fact, the surprise came, but the surprise was a little different from what he had imagined.
Figo appeared in the middle, but Quaresma and Cristiano Ronaldo played at the same time, and directly brought Portugal's offense to the two sides. They competed with each other. If you score a goal, then I will also score one, even if I don't. The ball also has to assist one, and never fall behind anyway.
In the 71st minute of the second half, Cristiano Ronaldo broke through on the right. The fancy passing allowed the Russian Teddy Bear to only block with fouls, but Cristiano Ronaldo quickly climbed up after falling to the ground and continued to rush forward with the ball, running on the offensive advantage The referee didn't blow the whistle, he directly signaled the game to continue, and then Cronec went into the penalty area and shot the Russian goal with a blast.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal, Quaresma was naturally unwilling to watch Cristiano Ronaldo's performance, the next attack, the left also contributed a wonderful breakthrough, and then cut in the right foot, the back of the inner foot took a big arc, the ball rubbed the far door Pillar flew into the goal.
The score has become 3:0.
Figo didn't get the ball for two consecutive offenses, but just ran with them in an empty run. Although he should be happy when the team scored a goal, he found he couldn't be happy.
The opponent Russian players are more like beeping dogs. They thought that the Russian substitution adjustment was intended to converge a bit. But I didn't expect that the two big devils were replaced and the bows were opened left and right, which made them silly.
And this is not over yet. After flying so far to Russia, if you don’t let yourself vent, you’re in vain.
In the 82nd minute, after breaking through on the left, Quaresma suddenly changed direction and used a right foot out of the foot to make an arc pass. The strange arc directly let the opponent's goalkeeper return without success. Postiga picked up a shot and broke the goal, the score on the field has become 4:0.
Is this the rhythm of slaughtering Russia?
It may be said that in the fight against beating people, Portugal is not an opponent, but at the peak of Portuguese football, it is not difficult to clean up Russia.
Quaresma is satisfied and feels that it is almost over, but Cristiano Ronaldo on the right is still not indifferent. Quaresma has all assists in his account, he has not yet, he is not convinced.
As a result, Ronaldo continued to stir the wind and rain on the right road, stirring the Russian defense line forever, and the angry bear guard almost sent Ronaldo directly to the ambulance.
What makes C Ronaldo more frustrating is that Quaresma seems to have better luck than him. After another breakthrough on the left, Quaresma slipped the bottom line to pass the triangle and gave Fego a nanny ball. The captain of Portugal Laugh at the gift and rewrite the score to 5:0.
Portugal, Moscow beat Russia.
"You're in luck!" At the end of the game, UU read www.uukanshu.comc Luo muttered while walking down the field with Quaresma.
Quaresma rolled his eyes, and you are too strong!
But it may be this very good heart, so that Cristiano Ronaldo can always maintain the strongest fighting spirit, and will never be defeated. This may be an advantage.
Thinking of this, Quaresma couldn't help but also began to reflect.
Compared to Cristiano Ronaldo, he may be more lazy. If the team is in an unfavorable situation, he will certainly not retain it. However, if he is facing a weak traveler or has lost his suspense in the game, how much fighting can he come up with? , It is difficult to guarantee.
It may seem that this does not affect the overall situation, but in fact, when you are used to being lazy and may one day need you to go all out, you are not used to being so desperate.
Perhaps he was once Ronaldo's role model in football, but now Quaresma feels that Ronaldo should be his role model in terms of always attaching to goals.
