241. Unexpected opponents

In the first half of the first half, the host team Egypt was in the upper hand. The Portuguese national team did not have the style of a European champion at all. They were really stunned by the vuvuzela, not at all.

state.

Fortunately, with Qiu Ze's reliable footwork, in the 19th minute of the first half, the Portuguese national team finally had its first shot of the game.

Qiu Ze saw that the players of the Portuguese national team were not in good condition, so he did it all by himself. Now in the midfield position, he accelerated and changed direction to pass the Egyptian team's Shuki, and then passed the ball with a man.

Raab of the Egyptian team.

Qiu Ze led the football towards the Egyptian team's penalty area at high speed. Seeing Qiu Ze's menacing approach, the Egyptian team's central defenders did not dare to press out, so they gave Qiu Ze a large space. Of course, Qiu Ze was not polite.

, took a long shot directly from the front of the penalty area, and came a knock-on shot.

The football shot out like a flying meteor, flying directly past the Egyptian team's central defender and quickly flying towards the goal behind him.

Faced with such a shot, the Egyptian team's goalkeeper Hadari flew out with all his strength and made a sideways save, but he did not touch the football. The football flew into the Egyptian team's goal with great speed.

One to zero! The Portuguese national team unexpectedly took the lead thanks to Qiu Ze's personal performance. This made the scene instantly quiet, as if everyone was stunned. Those who were playing vuvuzelas were there.

It seemed that I had forgotten to blow for a moment.

However, within a few seconds, the sound of the vuvuzuna was loud enough. Everyone reacted and started cheering crazily. Queiroz, the head coach of the Portuguese national team, also jumped up and waved excitedly.

Holding fists.

He was so depressed. Watching this part of the game, the Portuguese national team played really shit. He never thought that the Portuguese national team would play like this, and being beaten like this by the Egyptian team, he almost went crazy at the time.

Already.

Now, the Portuguese national team has finally taken the lead, and now the game should be back on track. Queiroz is full of confidence in the following games.

But after the game restarted, the game was still the same. Even the Egyptian team's offense became sharper. Maybe it stung the Egyptians after losing the ball. The Egyptians attacked like crazy. Not to mention, their offensive threat was still very high.

big.

Zidan has naturally become the most active guy on the field. This guy is very threatening in offense and has brought a lot of trouble to the Portuguese national team and even made the Portuguese national team's defense in a hurry.

In the 31st minute of the first half, Zidan's efforts finally paid off. In a corner kick attack, this guy missed the ball at the back point. He kicked out with no one on guard.

The shot knocked the football into the gate of the Portuguese national team.

There was a burst of sighs at the scene, and the fans of the Portuguese national team shook their heads. In this game, the Portuguese national team played really badly. How could they play like this? The Egyptian team is not very strong.

After being equalized by their opponents, the players of the Portuguese national team behaved a little more normally. It seems that they have gradually adapted to the sound of the vuvuzuna, so his performance is getting better and better.

Qiu Ze clearly sorted out the attack in the midfield. The Portuguese national team's offense became more and more smooth, and gradually restored the style of the European champions. Now the Egyptian team is not as relaxed as before, and it is impossible to do whatever they want like before.

.

Zidan had naturally fewer opportunities in the past, and now the balance is beginning to tilt towards the Portuguese national team.

Under the leadership of Qiu Ze, the Portuguese national team played better and better. At this time, after Qiu Ze played one-two with Deco in the middle, he suddenly passed the football to the Egyptian team's right penalty area with a half-high ball.

. There, Nani of the Portuguese national team rushed in like a black lightning. After catching the football, he went to the center and then directly volleyed.

The football shot towards the Egyptian team's goal like a shell. The speed of the ball was really too fast. Like lightning, the South African team's goalkeeper Hadari couldn't react in time, and the football flew past Hadari.

, flew into the goal quickly.

The Portuguese national team finally took the lead again before the end of the first half, and the fans of the Portuguese national team immediately cheered.

Less than two minutes after the goal was scored, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half. The Portuguese national team led the Egyptian team 2-1 with Qiu Ze's pass and shot.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, the head coach of the Portuguese national team Queiroz immediately made a substitution, and it was a large-scale substitution. Qiu Ze, Nani and other six people were replaced. It is obvious that Queiroz is training the team.

, allowing more people to have the opportunity to compete.

This may be Queiroz's consideration for the subsequent Confederations Cup. After all, he can send his assistants to obtain information about the New Zealand team, and others can come to the scene to obtain information about their Portuguese national team. So, at this time, he stopped

to prevent the enemy from finding out too clearly.

The Egyptian team has no such plan. They still play with the same team. It can be seen that they really want to win this game and win this game.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, the Portuguese national team went into chaos after a large number of substitutions. This period gave the Egyptian team many opportunities, but Zidan failed to grasp it and wasted an excellent opportunity.

After wasting this excellent opportunity, Egypt's coach Shehak replaced Zidan and replaced him with Mido. Shehak still hopes to get more opportunities and achieve more through substitutions.

The goal was to win the game.

However, after the substitutions, the Portuguese national team gradually found its form after a brief chaos. Although their team did not play as smoothly and smoothly as Qiu Ze and others on the court. But they played

Very calmly, and gradually the situation was under control.

The Portuguese national team is not in a hurry to attack. They focus on control. They will only move forward after he has an absolute chance. Normally, they still focus on control. This is the tactic that Queiroz arranged for them.

Even tasks.

So far, the players of the Portuguese national team have performed very well. Gradually, the situation of the game has been stabilized, but they have not had many opportunities.

The Egyptian team tried its best to look for opportunities, but they got very few opportunities. Especially after Zidan left, the Egyptian team's forward line seemed to have no threat. The Portuguese national team played more smoothly.

In the 27th minute of the second half, the Portuguese national team got a chance for a corner kick. Joao Moutinho of the Portuguese national team kicked the ball out, and the Portuguese national team's substitute center Hugo Armé

Da beat the Egyptian center back in the penalty area and pushed the football into the Egyptian goal, giving the Portuguese national team a 3-1 lead.

By the time we got here, the Portuguese national team had basically won the game. But the Egyptian team did not give up. They continued to attack crazily, hoping to seize the opportunity to equalize the score.

However, there is still a big gap in strength between the two sides. Although Mido, who came up later, also got several opportunities, he was unable to convert the opportunities into goals. In the end, the Portuguese national team defeated the Egyptian team 3-1.

This game reminded Queiroz that there are still many problems in their team. Especially the unfamiliarity with the environment. This is very embarrassing. Just the damn Vivenus almost made the Portuguese country

The team failed to perform for more than half of the game.

This does have a huge impact on the Portuguese national team. Of course, there are still some problems with the team's internal coordination. The current Portuguese national team is not perfect, and there are still many problems that Queiroz needs to solve.

Fortunately, when the official game started, Cristiano Ronaldo was released from the ban, and he was able to return to the team and participate in the upcoming game.

Qiu Ze played very well in this game. When all the players had a poor press conference, he stood up and held up the Portuguese national team. There are also players in the Portuguese national team.

When playing normally, Qiu Ze's offensive organization in the midfield and frontcourt revitalized the entire Portuguese national team. This is a very good phenomenon.

Queiroz had to sigh that Qiu Ze is indeed one of the best midfield organizers in world football today. In fact, he was the one who discovered Qiu Ze earlier, and he also recommended Qiu Ze to Manchester United. Unfortunately, Manchester United

The team acted slowly at that time, which allowed Liverpool to take advantage.

Queiroz sometimes thinks that if Manchester United had brought Qiu Ze to Manchester United before Qiu Ze joined Benfica, then Qiu Ze and Cristiano Ronaldo would have never had such a deep grudge before.

Even the relationship between these two guys will definitely be very good.

Queiroz really regrets why he couldn't persist in the first place. If that were the case, it would be even easier for him to lead the Portuguese national team now.

Obviously there is no regret medicine in the world, Queiroz had to face reality. He took the players of the Portuguese national team back to the hotel, and he asked the players of the Portuguese national team to rest early, but there was still training the next day.

At this time, Queiroz handed his assistant to his room. He wanted to understand the situation of their first opponent, New Zealand.

From previous rumors, Queiroz knew that New Zealand was not very strong and they could easily defeat their opponents. However, the news brought back by his assistant was not like this. His assistant went to watch the match between New Zealand and Italy.

Performance, the result was not as people expected before the game, the New Zealand team was slaughtered by Italy.

Queiroz's assistant said that the New Zealand team played very well in this game, and what they performed was not as bad as everyone said. They are still very competitive and have good strength. Especially in high-altitude balls, they

The ability is really good.

Moreover, the match between New Zealand and the Italian national team went as he expected. Not five minutes into the match, New Zealand's forward Smeltz scored the Italian goal. This was a corner kick opportunity.

Gundam Smeltz jumped high and smashed the football directly into the Italian goal.

After that, the New Zealand team became bigger and more confident. In the 34th and 69th minutes of the game respectively, they led the Italian team 3-0.

When Queiroz heard this, he was intimidated. He really didn't expect that the New Zealand team, which he looked down on so much before, would be so strong and could lead the world champion Italy 3-0 so easily. This was really beyond him.

It's expected.

But later, Queiroz's assistant said that after taking a big lead, the New Zealand team's defense also began to have problems. In the following games, the New Zealand team lost three goals in a row and was eventually equalized by the Italian team.

Three to three, New Zealand actually ended up with a huge draw with the Italian team. This really exceeded many people's expectations. Moreover, everyone must re-evaluate the strength of the New Zealand team, otherwise everyone will suffer.

.

Queiroz was very interested in this. He thought to himself, it seems that this New Zealand team is really not a weak team. We cannot take it lightly when facing this team, otherwise

It’s you who have to endure the hardship.
