tenth

Although under Queiroz's mediation, Cristiano Ronaldo and Qiu Ze seemed to have reached an agreement to temporarily forget their conflicts. However, the competition between the two still exists, and it is getting more and more intense. It is Queiroz's

This passage made the competition between the two more intense.

Everyone knows that they must play a leading role in the Portuguese national team winning the Confederations Cup before they can win another PK and gain the capital to compete with Messi. Therefore, now both of them are holding back.

A surge of energy, ready to kill the opponent.

Under such circumstances, the Portuguese national team ushered in their second opponent in the group stage, the Asian champion Iraq. This game was the earliest game in the second round of the entire Confederations Cup. After this game,

It is the match between the host South Africa and New Zealand.

The result of this game is very likely to directly allow the Portuguese national team to qualify from the group early. The head coach of the Portuguese national team, Queiroz, emphasized before the game that they must win this game and get the right to qualify as early as possible, so that they

There will be more time to prepare for the knockout rounds.

Qiu Ze and Cristiano Ronaldo are holding back their energy in this game. They both hope to compete with each other in this game.

When the Asian champion Iraqi team faced the powerful Portuguese national team, they formed a defensive formation of 541. It was obvious that they wanted to get a draw, try to get another point, and then in the end

In one round of competition, they will defeat the New Zealand team, the weakest team in this group, so that they can qualify from the group.

New Zealand team coach Milutinovic's calculation was very clear, and this was also the most correct choice for the Iraqi team.

In the goalkeeper position is Kasder, in the back five position there are Shakir, Ali Karim, Majid, Hussein Rehema and Abbas. In the midfield four position it is

They are Mahd Karim, Kaharid, Akela and Hawar. At the front is Younis.

The most threatening person in the Iraqi national team is Younis at the front. This guy is very physically fit, has an excellent ability to pick up and protect the ball in the frontcourt, and has certain singles ability. The Portuguese national team should pay attention to

When the opponent counterattacks, don't be unable to attack for a long time and the opponent will sneak a goal.

As for the Portuguese national team, Queiroz still arranged the same formation and lineup as the previous game, with no changes. The goalkeeper is Ricardo, and the four defenders are Paulo Ferreira, Carvalho,

Pepe and Alves.

In the double defensive midfield position are Veloso and Joao Moutinho, in the three forward positions are Nani, Qiu Ze and Cristiano Ronaldo, and at the front is Nuno?

Gomez.

In the eyes of the Portuguese national team, the Iraqi team is really not a strong opponent. In their opinion, they should be able to win this game easily. At the beginning of the game, the Portuguese national team launched a ferocious attack.

Especially Qiu Ze and Cristiano Ronaldo, they have a very strong desire to attack. They both want to be the first to score and try to defeat their opponents.

Seeing Qiu Ze and Cristiano Ronaldo being so active, Queiroz was overjoyed. This is what he wanted to see. He hoped that Cristiano Ronaldo and Qiu Ze could speak in unison, so that their Portuguese national team

Only then can you go further.

Now, Queiroz is very satisfied with the performance of Qiu Ze and Cristiano Ronaldo on the court. Both of them performed very actively today and performed very well. They drove the entire Portuguese national team's offense.

besieging the Iraqi team.

However, the Iraqi team was determined to defend today. Even Younis, a sharp counterattacker, retreated to his own half to participate in the defense. It was like the Iraqi national team parked a bus in their own half.

It was the same in front of the goal, which made the players of the Portuguese national team feel very frustrated.

The Iraqi national team's tactics today were very appropriate. They collected almost everyone around the penalty area and seemed to have put a hard turtle shell on the goal, leaving the Portuguese national team with such a powerful attack power unable to do anything.

During the game, both Qiu Ze and Cristiano Ronaldo worked very hard. Cristiano Ronaldo made even sharper breakthroughs on the court, running forward crazily, taking long shots, breaking through, and cutting inside. But just

I can't handle the Iraqis' human wave tactics.

There were people all over the front of the Iraqi penalty area and it was very dense. It was difficult for Qiu Ze to pass the football, let alone threaten the Iraqi team's goal.

In the first half of the game, the Portuguese national team took a lot of shots. There were seven shots in total, but six of them were long shots. The only shot that was not a long shot came from a corner kick. Pepe was in the penalty area.

Li fought for a header shot, but it fired an anti-aircraft gun.

Therefore, throughout the first half of the game, although the Portuguese national team worked hard, they could not break the turtle shell of the Iraqis. This made the players of the Portuguese national team feel very aggrieved, especially Cristiano Ronaldo.

I felt frustrated and panicked.

In the first half of the game, Cristiano Ronaldo completed four shots by himself, and all four shots were long-range shots. Moreover, three of the shots hit the Iraqi defensive players, and one of them was directly hit.

Off the mark.

The Iraqi team's 100 tactics were indeed very successful. They did not concede a goal in this half of the game. As long as they persisted for another half of the game, they would be able to get a point as they wished.

The fans at the scene were very dissatisfied with the Iraqi team's clumsy tactics. They booed the Iraqi players throughout the first half of the game.

However, at the beginning of the second half of the game, the Iraqis changed the fans' view of them. At the beginning of the second half of the game, the Iraqi team suddenly launched a counterattack, and a long pass directly from the backcourt found Younis in front.

.

This guy Younes has been waiting for more than half a game, and now he finally got his chance.

Because the players of the Portuguese national team had a fixed pattern in their minds, they thought that the Iraqi team would continue to defend, so at the beginning of the second half of the game, they pressed forward crazily, and now the defenders were almost past half-court.

Younis immediately seized the opportunity. This guy moved forward at high speed and chased the football coming from the fire field. Younis moved forward crazily. The ball was not offside because Younis was still passing the ball in the backcourt.

What about your own half?

At this time, Younis surpassed the Portuguese national team's defense and rushed directly into the Portuguese national team's half. At this time, Younis was the only one in the Portuguese national team's half, which made everyone panic.

ah.

The fans of the Portuguese national team were very anxious. If the ball was lost, the Portuguese national team would be doomed. Iraq would definitely defend shamelessly. It would be difficult for the Portuguese national team to equalize the score.

Fortunately, Younis is not very fast. Pepe quickly chased back and finally caught up with Younes at the line of the penalty area.

Younis also felt that Pepe was chasing after him. He didn't want to lose such a good opportunity. So he immediately started to shoot. At this time, Pepe who rushed up stretched out his hand and pulled Younis, which interfered with Younis's shot.

.

The football kicked out by Younis flew towards the goal quickly and missed the goal slightly, and the Portuguese national team escaped.

This time, the fans of the Portuguese national team were so frightened that they were almost defeated by the Iraqi team.

This time, it reminded the Portuguese national team that they should also pay attention to defense when they are attacking crazily, and they cannot be successfully attacked by the Iraqi team. Therefore, when attacking from behind, the Portuguese national team always has a central defender behind them.

Defend from behind.

However, after this counterattack, the Iraqi team returned to the half court and began to defend tightly. Now they even gave up the counterattack. The fans at the scene sighed again. The Iraqi team was so insignificant.

One shot and run.

The players of the Portuguese national team can't care so much. They attack crazily and they must win the game. Qiu Ze and Cristiano Ronaldo are also attacking crazily, striving to score goals.

In the last twenty minutes of the game, the Portuguese national team finally had an advantage. Under the crazy attack of the Portuguese national team, the Iraqi team's turtle shell cracked at this time and was no longer as strong as before.

The physical fitness of the players of the Iraqi national team has dropped very sharply at this time, and they are gradually unable to keep up, and their defense is not particularly timely. Therefore, at this time, the Portuguese national team's offense is becoming more and more effective.

Threatened.

When Qiu Ze and Cristiano Ronaldo saw this situation, they became more active because they both saw the hope of scoring goals. This guy Cristiano Ronaldo strengthened his breakthroughs and long-range shots.

Once, his long-range shot almost hit the Iraqi goal. At the end, his Iraqi goalkeeper made a magical save and saved the football.

Seeing that the goal is getting closer and closer, the players of the Portuguese national team are getting more and more energetic. They are all attacking crazily, trying to score the goal.

At this moment, the efforts of the Portuguese national team finally paid off. After Qiu Ze received a pass from Joao Moutinho at the front of the penalty area, he directly lobbed the ball. The football drew a beautiful line in the air.

Arc, and then flew directly into the blind spot of the Iraqi team's goal.

One to zero, the Portuguese national team relied on Qiu Ze's goal to defeat the Asian champion Iraq team by one goal.

Although Milutinovic's Iraq team was covered with thick tortoise shells, they still could not stop the Portuguese national team from winning. Milutinovic's tactics were almost successful this time. They held on

The Portuguese national team played half of the game, more than 70 minutes, and they succeeded with just a little time left. It's really a pity.
