Chapter 1027: hero

Rooney wants to be a hero.
No player does not want to be a hero in the game.
11 people have the opportunity, plus the bench, 14 possibilities.
But heroes are often born at random, not deliberately played. One of the charms of football as a team sport is this. Some people will be expected to be heroes, and as a result they will become sinners, and some people will be considered as sinners. But it can complete self-redemption and even become a hero.
Young players lack experience, the more they focus on self-expression, the less likely they are to become heroes and go to the other extreme: sinners!
If Alan Smith played the striker in the first half, Aldridge would accept the result very calmly, but not Smith, Rooney, Rooney is fully capable of doing better, he can do better, but he did not do To.
As soon as the second half came up, Rooney's performance improved slightly. He sent Gerard a good pass. Gerrard was disturbed by Andrade in the penalty area and the ball was missed. Audric gave Rooney applause.
However, after 10 minutes, Rooney missed another golden opportunity. Beckham passed the side pass, and Rooney rushed to the back point to the chance. The opportunity wasted and the header was missed.
There was an uproar at the scene, English fans lamented the opportunity, and Portuguese fans were fortunate enough to die.
"England's counterattack is very threatening. Portugal's offensive end is becoming more and more impatient. After being intercepted by the England midfielder, he quickly mobilized a wave of threats. Unfortunately, Rooney failed to put the ball into the goal. The 18-year-old genius Juvenile, today looks a bit nervous, and his performance has dropped significantly."
Scolari has made Portugal pay more attention to defense in the intermission, but after attacking in the midfield, the team still lacks the containment of the England team's quick counterattack.
To prevent the opponent from hitting the ball behind, the defender line is about to retreat, then the midfield is broken down by the England team. If the defender line premises, then you must be alert to a straight pass from behind, especially if the midfield line is retreated, the Portuguese attacking player in the frontcourt With the England team closely guarded, there will obviously be a lack of support from behind.
Aldrich was able to see that Rooney had lost the power of the soldiers.
The reason is also very simple. After the victory over the Czech Republic, Rooney's exposure is too high, there were not many good forwards in England, and Portugal will not ignore Rooney no matter how careless it is.
Coming to the final, targeted research on opponents will definitely be more rigorous.
Every opponent on the field should not be underestimated.
In other words, in this final, the England team can tactically knock down their opponents, but it is never possible to knock them down technically!
Vice versa, Portugal wants to defeat England by virtue of the individual players in the lineup. It is also impossible. After all, the threat value of each player will be vigilant in the eyes of England.
Rooney was nervous and impatient in the finals for various reasons, which has affected his technical ability.
After missing the header and attacking the goal, he kicked directly on the goal post to vent his depression.
Aldridge chose a substitution. In the 61st minute of the game, when Portugal took a corner kick, the England team made a sideline substitution.
Rooney looked at the substitution number played by the fourth official on the sideline.
His teammate, Irving stood on the sidelines waiting for his end.
Rooney's expression suppressed dissatisfaction and anger. In this final, he started, but he didn't score.
As long as he scores a goal, he will become the best scorer in the European Cup!
Golden boots, fly!
Rooney lowered his head and walked off the court without making a substitution with Owen. As he walked to the bench, Aldridge reached out and wanted to pat Rooney on the shoulder as an encouragement.
However, a scene that shocked Aldridge appeared.
Rooney raised his hand and opened Aldridge's arm!
Aldridge's pupils shrunk, his expression suddenly changed, and he was frosty.
Maybe fans all over the world saw this scene through live broadcast, even if it was not there at the time, it will be played back by the live broadcaster in the back game.
Aldrich turned to look at Rooney with his head down, and sneered in a cold voice: "What the are you doing? What are you dissatisfied with? The team reached the finals, the first in the history of impacting England. A European Championship trophy, do you know what you are doing?"
Rooney turned his head, and he regretted it after doing the action just now. He didn’t want to make things big, but he still couldn’t hold back when he faced Aldridge’s stern expression, shaking his head as if he was wronged. The expression said: "If you don't trust me, don't take me to the European Cup!"
Aldrich restrained his anger.
Do not trust?
Yes, if he does not trust, he will not bring Rooney to the European Cup.
If he didn't trust, he wouldn't speak to Rooney many times and make clear why he was arranged for the bench.
If you do not trust, you will not be replaced by Rooney when you need someone to stand up in the Czech Republic.
If he does not trust, he will not even send him in the finals!
It’s not that I don’t trust you!
It's you again and again that disappoints Lao Tzu!
This 60-minute poor performance directly squandered two golden opportunities.
Even world-class superstars dare not complain about Aldridge when they are replaced!
Bad performance, bad performance, but still straightforward?
Aldridge walked in front of Jenson and stopped looking at Rooney. He whispered to Jenson: "Take him back to the locker room. Before the game is over, I don't want to see him again and let him calm down."
As soon as Aldridge's words fell, Rooney stood up from the bench and walked straight into the player's tunnel.
When he was wronged and dissatisfied, he did not know how many eyes on the English bench looked at Rooney full of complexity.
Wayne Rooney, you are only 18 years old.
England's substitute, who can play under the bench, understands Rooney but has no sympathy for him.
Understanding is because Rooney has the hope to impact personal honor, and has also become a new golden boy to replace Irving. Irving became famous when he was 18 years old. Rooney is 18 years old and has become famous in the European Cup.
It's just that his ambition is too big to seem to be above the team.
Perhaps he will become a big-name superstar in the future, but he is not, so he has no capital to complain and is not worthy of sympathy.
Portugal nearly scored a goal through this corner attack.
Ronaldo actively ran away from the player who marked him in the penalty area, then flicked the ball at a small angle to attack the goal, only to hear a bang, the ball hit the crossbar and the bottom line was popped.
Ronaldo, who was kneeling on the ground with a shocked expression, felt very sorry. Almost, he would become a Portuguese hero.
Scolari also concealed his hands on the side of the court, showing a very disappointed look. If the ball can be scored, Portugal will immediately change the style of play, no longer attack, and defend the counterattack.
Aldridge's heart swayed and his emotions were very complicated, but he tried to keep all his thoughts on the court and focus on the game.
Irving's physical fitness may not be able to insist on the full game, but at the moment, he is still full of energy.
The tactical role brought by Irving is also very obvious.
His speed brought pressure on the deep offensive line, and the Portuguese defender had to retreat, but Owen's clever running position was to bring the depth forward first, and then turn back to catch the ball in the space created, and Teammates played with cooperation, so that the offense can continue steadily at the forefront.
Portugal strengthened its defense in the second half, the back line contraction was tight, and the speed of the middle was not enough.
Aldrich gestured to Scholes on the sidelines, allowing him to put pressure on the opponent's backline and put pressure on the ball. By constantly shifting the ball, he tore the opponent's back line and forced the opponent to expose himself.
In the 73rd minute, Figo was cleared by Campbell's header in the side pass. Gary Neville controlled the outside landing and passed the ball diagonally to Lampard, who then passed the ball back to Scholes.
Scholes ran off Deco and drove the ball to the frontcourt.
At this time, Beckham and Lampard were on top, together with Gerald and Owen in front, the England team 5VS6.
The ball came to the front waistline and passed to Lampard. The latter split the ball in the middle and long distance. Beckham took the ball to the bottom line on the right and did not cut inwards, which would only make the opponent shrink the penalty area more. Defense.
Beckham attracted Valent out to defend, and then passed the ball to Gerrard who ran over the back line to respond.
Gerrard still hit the ball, and then passed the ball back to Scholes, who didn't insert the front edge. Before Maniche and Costinha turned around, the head quickly came out. The ball passed to Owen, who was pressed to the left of the back line.
Behind Irving is Carvalho. He does not plan to turn around this ball and gently knocks the ball towards the middle!
The Portuguese defender line was shocked, Carvalho was attracted by Irving, and Andrade focused mainly on Gerrard. When Lampard quickly inserted into the middle, Maniche and Costinha realized, but Previously, attention was on Scholes. Lampard's running position from the outside, plus Gerard, Scholes, and Irving, three consecutive shots, this coordination is too fast. , It wasn’t until they turned around in the same place that they reacted. It’s hard to guard Lampard!
Lampard is like a sharp knife inserted into the penalty area of ​​Portugal, and the speed of the ball is straightened into the penalty area. This ball he handled the ball very well. If the trip is big, the golden opportunity will no longer exist!
After the formation of a single-pole trend, Lampard faced Portuguese goalkeeper Ricardo. The shooting angle was similar to a penalty kick. Lampard pulled the ball to the bottom left corner of the goal. Even though Ricardo predicted correctly, the angle was too close. But he couldn't save it and watched the ball enter the goal!
Lisbon's bright stadium, the dawn of Portugal's championship suddenly dim!
Many people were boiling, many English fans took off their clothes in the stands, and female fans also showed underwear to cheer Lampard.
Lampard roared when he rushed to the sidelines, and was then overwhelmed by the players of the English team in the corner area. Many players on the bench also rushed over there. Aldridge also joined the rushing team as if Frustrated, his arms waved happily and rushed there.
