Iron Man on the pitch

The players slowly advanced with the kick-off goal.

However, unlike the Portuguese team under Queros in the original time and space, he gave up 4-3-3. Paul Bento, the Portuguese team, which has changed to play 4-5-1, has a very high defensive intensity.

The four midfielders line up in a row, and Miguel Veroso, the left-side forward, has good defensive skills, which can help Deco make up for the defensive loopholes; Deco, who is not reused in the club, has a lot of physical fitness, although In terms of physical confrontation, the black and hard guys in Côte d'Ivoire are a little disadvantage, but they can be compensated by active running.

As the right center back, Raul Mereles, who is also good at offense and defense, can also help Nani fill the loopholes; Nani, who is young and energetic, wants to play his own style in the national team game and securely start the start of Manchester United, is also very good. spell.

What surprised the Ivory Coast players the most was that Li Ling, who won the European Golden Boot, actually spared no effort in defense. Normally, offensive players will be slack when defending, after all, they must use their own physical strength at the key. place.

But this kid of Chinese descent seemed to be unable to run to death, and his figure was everywhere in the frontcourt.

Therefore, the players in Côte d'Ivoire completely lost control of the midfield and were unable to successfully send the football to the forward, so they could only fall in the backcourt.

After trying several short passes and penetrations, all ended in failure, Ebue made a quick pass and found Gervinho on the front line and asked him to go one-on-one with Paul Ferreira.

But even though Gervinho's feet are good, Paul Ferreira's sweating profusely, he still couldn't pass Paul Ferreira cleanly for a while, and could only barely give him one. Record the biography.

Bruno Alves relied on his strong body to gain an advantage in the confrontation with Dindan, pushing the football out of the penalty area.

Deco knew that he had no advantage when competing for the header, so he carefully blocked Tiot.

Raul Mereles rushed over and headed the ball towards the frontcourt before Yaya Toure.

Because Li Ling retreated and participated in assisting defense, there was only Cristiano Ronaldo in the frontcourt.

It is very difficult to win the physical confrontation with the defender and keep the football firmly under his feet. But if he just needs to ferry the ball to his teammates, he can do a great job.

Ronaldo jumped high and pushed the ball towards the open ground behind him. Li Ling had already rushed there at high speed.

Li Ling jumped half a step and received Ronaldo's header in the air. The football fell on Li Ling's feet, as if it was stuck with glue, and followed Li Ling's right foot to the ground. Li Ling then sent the ball forward and began to dribble.

The Portuguese team launched a counterattack. After landing, Ronaldo quickly got up and rushed to the frontcourt. Behind him, Coentran and Nani also ran along the two sides at high speed.

The Ivory Coast players retreated at full speed, but because the three forwards were pressing too deeply, the midfielder had to move the position forward and could not retreat for a while. Only Yaya Toure followed Ronaldo. .

The Portuguese team formed a brief 4-on-5 situation in the frontcourt.

Li Ling used the same trick again or pretended to pass it to Ronaldo, but this time he did not pass it to Nani on the right, but instead gave a overhead goal and found Coentran on the left.

Cointran sent out a simple and normal cross, and Ronaldo also came as scheduled to compete for this. Unfortunately, with the interference of Kloe Toure and Yaya Toure, the ball was overwhelmed. Some, rubbed the pillar and flew out of the bottom line.

Ronaldo, who missed the chance to score, was very upset. His teammates went over to encourage him, and Ronaldo also gave him a thumbs up and responded.

Niu Jianhong explained this counterattack, his tone was full of envy: "The Portuguese team's counterattack was quite fast. The most important thing is that they did not stick to the ball, they all used one shot, which was quite neat and neat, and the counterattack efficiency was very high. .”

"As a star player, Ronaldo is willing to do such dirty and tiring jobs in fighting for headers; Coentran and Nani on both sides sprint hard; especially Li Ling who dribbled the ball in the counterattack, divided the sides The timing was just right, showing his level of being the best player in the Portuguese Super League."

"Compared with the difficulty of the 'African Elephant' Côte d'Ivoire's offense, the 'Five Shields Legion' Portugal has repeatedly created dangers in front of the opponent's goal, but his luck is a little worse. I wonder if the Portuguese team will score first?"

Alfonso Pereira's tone was quite proud: "Look, let me say that the combination of Ronaldo and Li Ling is unstoppable. The players in this tournament are also very good. Today is 3:0, I I feel stable! ”

"To be honest, I was also surprised. I didn't expect Ronaldo and Lee to be together.Ling's running-in is so good, and today's Ronaldo is quite selfless in playing football. "Juan Silva first affirmed the Portuguese team's current performance, and then changed the subject, "But if Côte d'Ivoire shifts its defensive focus to Li Ling, what will we deal with next?" ”

Unfortunately, as an African team, Côte d'Ivoire has a common disadvantage of African teams, that is, poor tactical discipline. This is also the reason why African teams are very strong, but have never been regarded as disruptors, not contenders for the World Cup championship.

The Ivorian players are skilled in the Ivorian players, but their lack of cooperation awareness has become the key to preventing them from regaining the situation. Moreover, the lack of coordination awareness not only affects the smoothness of the offense, but also makes it fatal to have no tacit understanding in defense.

Even though Côte d'Ivoire's head coach Eriksson has seen Li Ling's current role, the midfielders did not exactly follow his ideas and locked up Li Ling, and still bet most of their attention on C. Luo.

After all, Ronaldo is a famous superstar, Mr. Golden Ball, everyone wants to make some achievements in him; and although Li Ling has performed amazingly this season, he can feel his strength in actual combat, no one can say whether Li Ling will be It will be a flash in the pan, so the players of Côte d'Ivoire never gave Li Ling the same importance as Ronaldo.

Just one-on-one defense cannot stop Li Ling from organizing the offense at will.

The Portuguese team's offense was quite smooth, with both wings flying together, infiltrating the middle, and violent long shots... In the following time in the first half, Ivory Coast was pressed and beaten.

Even if the Ivory Coast players try to fight physically, they can do nothing but eat cards and give Portugal the opportunity to set the ball in the frontcourt.

After all, Portuguese players are also famous for their gorgeous style and delicate skills. Côte d'Ivoire players are not tall and strong white bears like Nordic teams, and can completely crush the physique of Portuguese players. What's more, with Li Ling, a powerful central axis point, the cooperation of the Portuguese team is not so easy to interrupt.

There was a panic in front of the goal in Côte d'Ivoire and frequent crises.
