tenth

During the halftime break, the players of the Spanish national team watched the slow-motion replay. It was indeed Puyol who fouled the ball. Seeing this, all the players of the Spanish national team shook their heads and sighed. This was really not the referee's fault.

question.

The players of the Spanish national team seemed to be in a low mood. Del Bosque frowned slightly. He immediately cheered the players of the Spanish national team. Now they were only one goal behind. There was still plenty of time, so they must not be discouraged and give up.

Del Bosque emphasized the team's offense during the halftime break. Now that they are behind, they must attack in the second half and score goals as soon as possible.

After being encouraged by Del Bosque during the halftime break, the players of the Spanish national team regained their vitality, as if they had been beaten to death.

On the other side, the head coach of the Portuguese national team, Paul Bento, hopes that the players of the Portuguese national team can be more stable. After all, they are already ahead and do not need to take risks. They can just play the second half of the game steadily.

.

During the halftime break, Paulo Bento also specifically asked Qiu Ze to control the rhythm of the game and control the overall situation.

In this case, the pressure is almost all on Qiu Ze, but Paul Bento is not afraid that Qiu Ze will be crushed by the pressure. Paul Bento is very confident in Qiu Ze, and he firmly believes that Qiu Ze can bear it

Withstand the pressure, he believed in Qiu Ze.

And Qiu Ze is indeed trustworthy. This guy has demonstrated this very well in his career. Whether in Beiramar, Benfica, or Liverpool, Qiu Ze has performed perfectly.

.

At the beginning of the western half of the game, the Spanish national team launched a ferocious attack, hoping to use their offense to win the game.

Midfielder Xavi broke through two people in a row and played a one-two with Iniesta. He suddenly pushed the football straight into the penalty area of ​​the Portuguese national team. The ball was passed very well. Fernando Torres advanced forward.

He faced Eduardo directly.

When all the Spanish national team fans at the scene thought that this goal would definitely be scored, Eduardo once again performed a magical performance. He flew out and knocked the football over the bottom line. He once again saved the team.

Corner kick! Corner kick for the Spanish national team.

The threat of the Portuguese national team did not end. Eduardo immediately jumped up from the ground and shouted madly at his defender: "Defense, defense, defense!!"

Hearing Eduardo's shout, the Portuguese national team's defenders woke up from their daze, immediately went to find their own men, and defended conscientiously, not giving the opponent any chance.

"Wow! Eduardo's performance today was really perfect. He made many rescues and kept the Portuguese national team's goal intact!" Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, praised.

The Spanish national team's offensive players frantically rushed into the Portuguese national team's penalty area, eager to try in the penalty area. This made the Portuguese national team's goalkeeper Eduardo very nervous and carefully told his defensive players to defend carefully and not to relax their vigilance.

The fans of the Portuguese national team were also very nervous. At the beginning of the second half of the game, the players of the Spanish national team were very excited. They all seemed to have taken stimulants. The situation is very dangerous now.

The players of the Portuguese national team defended carefully. At this moment, Xavi in ​​the corner took a high-speed run, came to the ball and planted his left foot hard, and then slammed his right foot towards the football.

With a bang, the football flew out quickly, flew into the penalty area of ​​the Portuguese national team, and went directly to the back point. Fernando Torres, who was at the back point, jumped high and headed for the goal. However,

The football hit the body of Carvalho, who was also jumping high, and flew out of the baseline again.

"Corner kick! The Spanish national team continues to take corner kicks!" said Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel.

In the stadium, the goalkeeper of the Portuguese national team Eduardo once again reminded the players of the Portuguese national team to pay attention to defense and not give the players of the Spanish national team a chance.

The players of the Portuguese national team stood ready in the penalty area, waiting to defend the high-altitude ball!

However, Xavi in ​​the corner kick did not drive the football into the penalty area this time, but gave the football to Iniesta who rushed towards him!

"Oops! Not good!" Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, immediately exclaimed, "tactical corner kick! This is a tactical corner kick! Cunning Spaniard!"

Yes, this was a tactical corner kick, Xavi gave the football to Iniesta on the wing!

The defenders of the Portuguese national team were shaken, and near the edge of the penalty area, the defenders of the Portuguese national team quickly pounced out to block Iniesta. The defense of the Portuguese national team players in the penalty area was also somewhat scattered, and the defensive players immediately restarted

Find your defender and continue to defend.

After Iniesta received the ball, he did not give Ricardo Costa a chance to save it. He immediately took off and passed the football into the penalty area of ​​the Portuguese national team. It was a high ball.

The football flew quickly over the head of Ricardo Costa, who was throwing out. Ricardo Costa had already jumped up. He wanted to push the football out, but unfortunately he did not hit it. The football

It flew over his head and flew into the penalty area.

The sway just now disrupted the defense of the Portuguese national team in the penalty area. This time, Iniesta's pass immediately flew to Fernando Torres, one meter behind Alves. Fans and players of the Portuguese national team

They were all shocked and screamed.

Alves, who was in front of Fernando Torres, jumped up high, trying to fight for the football. But the football flew back after wiping his hair. Where was Fernando Torres suddenly jumping up like a plucking onion and facing him?

He shook his head hard at the football and hit it.

With a bang, Fernando Torres' head hit the football hard, and the football flew quickly towards the Portuguese national team's goal.

"Header!" Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, roared with excitement, his eyes fixed on the flying football.

Ah! All the Portuguese national team fans at the scene screamed in horror at this moment, and their hearts fell to the bottom.

Eduardo in front of the goal jumped up from the ground crazily and pounced on the football, but he still failed to pounce on the football. All the fans of the Portuguese national team in the audience felt that the end of the world was coming.

Bang! There was a sound of steel, the football hit the crossbar of the goal hard, and then bounced off the baseline!

"Goalpost! It was the goalpost that saved the Portuguese national team! OMG, the Portuguese are really lucky, goalpost! Magical goalpost!" Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, exclaimed.

The fans of the Portuguese national team immediately burst out with sounds of relief. This goal was really too dangerous. It was just a little bit close. They were almost finished.

"Oops!!" The fans of the Spanish national team collectively sighed with regret. This is another good opportunity. It is a rare opportunity to win a header in the penalty area of ​​the Portuguese national team where there are so many people. It is a pity, God.

Not on their side.

Fernando Torres, who put the ball on the crossbar, was filled with regret. He covered his face with his hands and sighed heavily. Obviously he wanted to score a goal very much, especially in the European Cup final.

On the sidelines, Spanish national team coach Del Bosque was very dissatisfied with the team's performance, especially with Fernando Torres's performance.

Fernando Torres had several good opportunities in this game, but unfortunately he failed to seize any of them. More often than not, Fernando Torres did not help the team much, and his state affected his performance.

play.

At this time, Del Bosque reacted immediately. He replaced Fernando Torres with Fabregas. This was to replace the forward with a midfielder. The Spanish national team will be without a forward for the next half hour.

Yes, the Spanish national team is about to start their strikerless tactics again. The Spanish national team has used strikerless tactics in this World Cup and performed very well. Obviously at this time, the Spaniards are going to give it a try.

Goal kick, the Portuguese national team's goalkeeper Eduardo took the goal kick, and now they are not in a hurry to attack. Qiu Ze firmly controls the football at his feet and passes the ball to his teammates. At this time, they seem to be happy

The Spanish national team was the same in the first half of the game.

Suddenly, Qiu Ze in the midfield found an opportunity and sent a long diagonal pass directly into the center circle. The football flew quickly to the ribs on the left side of the Spanish national team's penalty area. Where was Cristiano?? Ronaldo rushed into the penalty area.

, caught the football and directly faced Spanish national team goalkeeper Casillas one-on-one.

All the Portuguese national team fans got excited and cheered excitedly.

Unfortunately, Cristiano Ronaldo missed the ball under the pressure of Casillas. The ball rolled out of the bottom line, and the Portuguese national team missed an excellent opportunity to expand the score.

On the sidelines, the head coach of the Portuguese national team, Paulo Bento, was full of regrets. If this goal had been scored, the Portuguese national team would have basically sealed the victory of the game.

Del Bosque, the head coach of the Spanish national team, was furious and was very dissatisfied with the team's performance, especially during defense. He was furious on the sidelines.

The Spanish national team resumed their attack. Xavi's pass was intercepted by Pepe. Qiu Ze made another long pass. Hugo Almeida in the frontcourt jumped high and headed the ball across. Nani cut forward and cut directly.

Shot, the football went over the crossbar.

Two minutes later, the Spanish national team created a very good opportunity. After Xavi played one-two with Cesc Fabregas at the front of the penalty area, he suddenly picked up the football and Pedro came in from the wing in the penalty area.

Heading the ball towards the goal, the football flew straight towards the Portuguese national team's goal.

It's a pity that Pedro was a little short and didn't have the strength to hit the ball. The football was confiscated by Eduardo. If the ball had been replaced by Fernando Torres, the ball would have been there in all likelihood, and Eduardo would have had it.

You can't catch the football.

At this time, fans of the Spanish national team began to miss Fernando Torres. If Fernando Torres was here, the situation of this game would be different.

On the sidelines, Del Bosque also felt regretful for a while. He couldn't help but look up at the time. There were still twenty minutes left before the game. Time was running out.

Five minutes later, the Spanish national team made a comeback. Iniesta and Fabregas passed by each other on the wing. Iniesta immediately moved the football to the other side. After Pedro received the ball, he led it into Portugal.

The restricted area of ​​the national team.

The Portuguese national team's central defender Alves fell to the ground and tackled the ball to the bottom line, but Pedro fell exaggeratedly into the penalty area.

"Penalty kick! Penalty kick! This is definitely a penalty kick! Red card! Red card! Send that damn guy off!" The fans of the Spanish national team became energetic and roared with great excitement. They were very excited.

"Flip! Pedro and Professor Bu are from the same school. Their flops are so real! Flip! Red card! Expell these divers!" The fans of the Portuguese national team roared collectively and called the referee.

put pressure on.

"Penalty kick! This is a penalty kick!" Del Bosque became excited, jumping up and down on the sidelines, putting pressure on the referee.

"Flip! Red card! Send him out!" Paulo Bento was not to be outdone.

Toot! Referee Howard Weber blew his whistle, came to the scene of the incident, showed Pedro a yellow card, and then pointed to the corner kick area.

"Wow! Howard?? Weber's penalty is a little unclear! If Pedro was called for diving, the ball should be given to the Portuguese national team. But if the ball is given to the Spanish national team, this yellow card should be given to the Portuguese national team.

It's puzzling, is he looking for balance?" Duan Xuan, a commentator on CCTV Sports Channel, asked doubtfully.

The players and fans of the Spanish national team were naturally very dissatisfied. The players of the Spanish national team besieged the referee, while the fans of the Spanish national team booed to express their dissatisfaction.

But Howard Weber was very determined, and the Spaniard had no choice but to take a corner kick!

The Spanish national team won a corner kick. Cesc Fabregas drove the football directly to the front of the penalty area. Xavi took a long shot from there and the football missed the goal.

"Wow! The football missed the goal, and the Spanish national team missed a good opportunity." At this time, Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, said another famous saying, "There is not much time to stay in the Spanish national team."

It’s over!”

Yes, time is running out. For the Spanish national team, this time is indeed running out. Including stoppage time, it is only fifteen minutes.

The difference of one goal is not big, but it is still very difficult to get it back immediately. At this time, Del Bosque started to get anxious!

At this time, the Spanish national team had already pressed forward and began to besiege the Portuguese national team.

The Spanish national team has launched a total attack, and the Portuguese national team has also begun to shrink its defense. Of course, they have not given up the opportunity to counterattack.

At this time, Paulo Bento made a substitution. He replaced Hugo Almeida with Veloso, and replaced the forward with a defensive midfielder. Paulo Bento's intention was very obvious.

.

At this time, the Portuguese national team's formation also changed, becoming 4312, or even this formation became 4321, leaving Cristiano Ronaldo in front who was ready to counterattack, and everyone else was

Begin to defend.

Seeing the changes in the Portuguese national team, Del Bosque frowned and was very nervous.

Time kept passing, and the fans of the Spanish national team at the scene were very anxious. They all frowned and waited anxiously. At this time, they wanted to rush into the stadium and play football with these guys from the Portuguese national team.

.

The fans of the Portuguese national team are equally anxious. They can't wait for the game to end. They can't wait to win the Hercules Cup.

The players of the Spanish national team gritted their teeth and fought hard. They did not give up and they attacked crazily.

When Pedro takes the ball on the wing, the Portuguese national team's defensive players immediately pounce on him. There are now so many Portuguese national team defensive players in the backcourt, leaving very little space for the Spanish national team.

At this time, Pedro passed the football to Xavi in ​​the middle. Xavi immediately took the ball forward. Under Pepe's pressure, he passed the football to Fabregas. Fabregas started directly in front of the penalty area.

With a foot volley, the football hit Alves' leg. Although the direction changed, the force was relieved and the football rolled slowly towards the goal. Eduardo easily held the football in his arms.

"The Spanish national team once again wasted an opportunity. They are running out of time. There are only eight minutes left in the game." Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, also became nervous for the Spanish national team.

The players of the Spanish national team were very anxious and they attacked like crazy. But by this time, their mentality was already unbalanced. They seemed to have forgotten their tactics and kept picking up the ball from the wing and passing the ball.

, made a cross at an angle of 45 degrees. Their players were originally short, so there was simply no hope for such a cross.

Seeing the players of the Spanish national team playing more and more disorganized, Del Bosque frowned and reminded his players loudly on the sidelines. However, the players of the Spanish national team did not hear it on the court.

, I still go my own way.

Time is getting less and less, but the Spanish national team is still wasting opportunities and wasting time. This makes Del Bosque extremely angry.

The Portuguese national team is most happy to see the Spanish national team play like this, because it will pose no threat to them. They even always hope that the Spanish national team will continue to play like this.

The morale of the Portuguese national team increased. Yes, the Spanish national team's offense did not threaten them at all. Once the pressure on them went away, their morale naturally increased. Gradually, the Portuguese national team even began to press outward.

situation.

Bosque's brows wrinkled. The problems he encountered now were much more difficult than those he had expected. However, the Spaniard had no choice but to attack. The only way was to attack. It must be at the last moment.

In time, get the score back!

Del Bosque immediately walked to the sidelines and yelled crazily into the stadium: "Offensive, press me up and try to score in the last minute!"

"There's still time! Don't rush into the penalty area, stay on the ground!" Del Bosque even reminded the players of the Spanish national team.

There is not much time left in the game, and the players of the Spanish national team also know that now they have few chances. They must cherish every minute and every second and get the score back as soon as possible, otherwise, they will really be doomed.

Got it!

That's why the players of the Spanish national team play so simply, just hanging the football into the penalty area. At this time, they miss Fernando Torres very much, if this guy is there, their effect will be

Better.

Seeing that the players of the Spanish national team still did not hear his shouting, Del Bosque had no choice. He then asked Pique and Puyol to rush into the penalty area of ​​the Portuguese national team, allowing these two high points to compete in the penalty area.

For headers, use the two central defenders as center forwards.

With Pique and Puyol, Spain's tactics suddenly showed their strength. The Portuguese national team also gradually felt the pressure. The players of the Portuguese national team began to reclaim the penalty area and defend desperately.

Suddenly the game reached a deadlock again, but the game was almost over. It was a deadlock at this time, which was very detrimental to the Spanish national team.

At this time, the referee Howard Weber had already started to look at his watch, and the game had entered the final moment.

The fans of the Portuguese national team in the stands have started counting down, they can't wait for the end of the game.

At this time, Qiu Ze no longer thought about counterattack. He returned directly to the penalty area and played as a central defender. He was tall and strong. His arrival reduced the number of defensive players of the Portuguese national team.

their pressure.

At this time, Iniesta on the wing suddenly picked up the ball and passed the ball, and the football flew directly to the back point. The thicker forehead jumped high and came to the top.

"Pique! Spain's last chance, is this going to be a winner?" Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, roared excitedly.

Bang! The football hit the crossbar of the Portuguese national team's goal hard, bounced out, and bounced directly towards Puyol in the penalty area!

"The football hit the crossbar of the goal, oh what a pity, no, and Puyol!" Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, roared.

Boom! Qiu Ze in the penalty area saw the football bounce towards Puyol. He immediately flicked his leg and whipped the football hard. With a boom, Qiu Ze kicked the football away before Puyol.

Puyol's leg kicked Qiu Ze's foot.

The football flew out of the sideline quickly, and Qiu Ze saved the Portuguese national team at the most dangerous moment.

Toot! Toot! Toot!!!!

At this moment, the referee of this game, Howard Weber, blew the whistle to end the game!

it's over!

it's all over!

"Champions! Portugal! They won the championship! They are the world champions! They won the first World Cup championship in their history! They made history! They are the eighth team in the world to win the World Cup! Congratulations to the Portuguese national team

!!They are champions! They are world champions! World champions!" Commentators from all major places, countries and TV stations shouted in unison.

At this moment, the atmosphere at the Football City Stadium was extremely fiery, and all the fans were excited.

And when the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the fans in the football city quickly cheered. There was joy in Portugal, and they all rushed to the streets to celebrate collectively. They set off gorgeous fireworks, red

In the Football City football stadium, in the box for the families of Portuguese national team players, the wives and children of the Portuguese national team players screamed excitedly and hugged each other. They all looked at their husbands on the field with tears in their eyes.

"It's over! The World Cup in South Africa is over! The champion is the Portuguese national team!" Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, announced very excitedly.

All the Portuguese national team players in the stadium began to cheer wildly and celebrate. They ran around the stadium, hugged each other, waved their fists excitedly, and cried emotionally.

The players on the bench rushed into the stadium in a swarm and ran around the stadium, shouting that we are the champions, we are the World Cup champions!

The head coach of the Portuguese national team, Paulo Bento, suppressed the excitement in his chest and immediately turned around and walked towards the coaching bench of the Spanish national team, where Del Bosque looked bitterly at the Spanish national team players who were sitting on the court.

them.

At the moment when the game whistle ended, all the players of the Spanish national team fell on the turf, staring blankly into the distance. Some guys buried their faces in the turf and kept shaking their shoulders.

Thrilling.

Puyol, on the other hand, stared at the celebrating Portuguese national team players with tears in his eyes.

Paulo Bento came to Bosque. Bosque immediately turned towards Paulo Bento and stretched out his hand, took Paulo Bento's right hand and said: "Congratulations, world champion coach!"

Paulo Bento said seriously: "Thank you, you performed very well today."

After saying that, the two separated. Paulo Bento was picked up by the players who came to the sidelines at an unknown time, and then he was thrown into the sky again and again.

★★★

"CCTV, CCTV, audience friends, this is CCTV Sports Channel, I am Duan Xuan. Now the exciting moment is coming. The award ceremony of the 2010 South Africa World Cup is about to be held. The winner of the 2010 South Africa World Cup

This is the Portuguese national team. They have become the eighth team in the world to win the World Cup. Congratulations to them!" Duan Xuan stared at the Portuguese national team members in the stadium excitedly.

What had to be done before that was the awarding of the World Cup runners-up. The players of the Spanish national team walked onto the podium in a depressed mood. Each one received their medals absentmindedly, and then left in a depressed mood.

Then came the World Cup Champions Award Ceremony. Under the reminder of the host, the players of the Portuguese national team began to walk onto the podium.

The first person to walk up was Cristiano Ronaldo. This guy walked in the front. FIFA President Blatter hung the gold medal around Cristiano Ronaldo's neck, then Veloso, Mei

Qiu Ze was the second to last one, and behind him was the team's captain Carvalho.

When Qiu Ze walked up, FIFA President Blatter shook hands with Qiu Ze cordially and said: "You are really great. I think you are now the most popular person on the planet."

You’re a player. Work hard, kid, I’m very optimistic about you!”

With that said, Blatter brought Qiu Ze the gold medal representing the championship.

Qiu Ze took the gold medal, kissed it hard, showed a very charming smile, and then said thank you to FIFA President Blatter! Then, after giving Blatter a kiss, he quickly walked towards

The last one to come up was Carvalho, the captain of the Portuguese national team. Carvalho was very excited at this time. This was the moment he had dreamed of in his life. He was very excited.

Carvalho quickly came to Blatter, he and Blatter shook hands passionately, and then Carvalho took the Hercules Cup from Blatter.

At that moment, the podium erupted into a sky full of ribbons and confetti, and at the same time, fireworks representing victory erupted around the podium. Carvalho eagerly raised the trophy over his head, and his teammates beside him

Suddenly they jumped up on the podium and sang "We are the champions, we are the champions".

As the team members shouted and sang, the fans in the stands also sang along with the team members' melody. They sang loudly, shouted and roared to vent their anger. At the same time, under the podium, the camera shutters in the hands of reporters flashed.

It went on and on. But the Spanish team leaving silently next to them looked so lonely and desolate.

After Carvalho raised the Hercules Cup above his head three times, he handed the trophy to Qiu Ze beside him.

Qiu Ze was very excited when he raised the coveted Hercules Cup. His lifelong dream finally came true at this moment. Qiu Ze couldn't help but burst into tears!

Qiu Ze excitedly raised the Hercules Cup above his head and roared loudly: "We are the champions! We are the champions!"
