tenth

Ricardo gritted his teeth and ran as hard as he could, instead of running as hard as he could, and rushed towards the football. He had to clear the ball out before Beasley, otherwise it would be dangerous.

Everyone in the audience stared intently at the two men who were speeding so fast. They were all nervously calculating who would touch the football first.

The distance between the two is getting closer and closer, and the distance between the football and the ground is getting closer and closer. It can be seen that if neither of them touches the football, the football will definitely be a few meters in front of the Portuguese national team's penalty area.

The position is beyond the point where it fell to the ground.

At this time, Ricardo was almost as far away from the football as Beasley was from the football. But the football was moving in the direction of Ricardo. Suddenly, Ricardo felt happy. It seemed that it was him.

I will definitely encounter football first.

Ricardo was overjoyed and rushed towards the football that was falling rapidly in front of him. But before he could jump up, a figure flashed in front of him, and that damn Beasley was already in front of him.

He jumped up high in front of him, and his head hit the falling football.

Boom! Beasley, who rushed up at high speed, did not brake and jumped up, staring hard at the falling football.

The football immediately shot up and forward, drawing a parabola in the air and falling rapidly towards the empty goal.

"Beasley! It was Beasley who hit the football first! Oh my God, it was a header!" Liu Jianhong, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, roared in shock.

The entire stadium was silent for a few seconds, and then all the American fans roared crazily. With their many years of watching football experience, the ball must have fallen into the Portuguese national team's goal. Look at the trajectory of the football...

The fans of the U.S. team cheered excitedly. They couldn't wait to celebrate. On the sidelines, the head coach of the U.S. team, Bradley Sr., also came to the sidelines and raised his hands high.

"The ball is coming in, the ball is coming in, the ball is coming in, the ball is coming in, the ball is coming in, the ball is coming in, the ball is coming in, the ball is coming in, the ball is coming in, the ball is coming in, the ball is coming in, the ball is coming in, the ball is coming in!" CCTV

Sports channel commentator Liu Jianhong roared at the top of his lungs.

"Wonderful! Beautiful! This goal of the US team is simply wonderful! Dempsey and Beasley gave everyone an extremely wonderful goal." Xu Yang, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, roared with great excitement.

With.

"This goal is indeed wonderful. Whether it is Dempsey's long pass, Beasley's high-speed dash forward, or the last magical lob shot, it is simply wonderful to the extreme. It is really wonderful. This goal of the US team

The ball shocked people's hearts." Liu Jianhong, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, sighed.

"Although the U.S. team's offense looks very simple, it is also very sharp. Did you see that their pass penetrated the entire Portuguese national team's defense. There is also the gap between Beasley and Dempsey.

The tacit understanding of the pass and the interjection was very tacit. It can be seen that the Portuguese national team still underestimates the American team." Xu Yang, a guest commentator on CCTV Sports Channel, sighed.

At this time, the Americans were celebrating crazily, while the Portuguese looked shocked and deeply unwilling.

At this moment, the Italian referee Rossetti blew the whistle to end the first half.

At the end of the first half, the Portuguese national team and the United States national team were tied one to one.

The American team was very satisfied with this result, while the Portuguese national team was very dissatisfied. In the first half of the game, the Portuguese national team had a good chance of directly defeating the American team, but it was a pity that they did not seize the opportunity.

After returning to the locker room, Qiu Ze was in a very bad mood. He had anger written all over his face. The players of the Portuguese national team could all see it. But no one said anything and they all sat there quietly.

Of course, some people couldn't help but secretly glance at Cristiano Ronaldo from the corner of their eyes.

At this time, Cristiano Ronaldo had no expression on his face. He just sat there quietly without any reaction. No one knew what this guy was thinking at this time.

At this time, the head coach of the Portuguese national team Carlos Queiroz walked in. It seemed that he was not in a very good mood. The players of the Portuguese national team turned their heads to one side and did not look at Carlos Queiroz.

This guy Ross.

As soon as he walked into the locker room, Queiroz realized that the atmosphere in the locker room was very wrong. He couldn't help but look up at Cristiano Ronaldo, and then at Qiu Ze. After seeing the undisguised anger on Qiu Ze's face,

Later, he knew the root cause.

Queiroz sighed in his heart, the conflict between Cristiano Ronaldo and Qiu Ze finally broke out. Although there are no bad words or fights between the two, they have already started a silent competition.

It is very difficult for these two people to work together again. Queiroz couldn't help but feel a headache. This relationship is really difficult to handle.

Queiroz was in a complicated mood and was very annoyed. However, Queiroz knew that now was not the time to explode. There was still half a game to play.

Queiroz took a deep breath, calmed himself down first, and then came to the players. He clapped his hands to attract the players' attention, then he glanced at everyone, and then said: "We won the first half of the game.

We had a lot of chances, but we only scored one goal and that's why we haven't solved Team USA yet?"

"In the second half of the game, we must improve our efficiency, score goals as soon as possible, and score as many goals as possible. The only way for the American team to counterattack is to counterattack. As long as everyone is more careful with them, they will have no chance."

Queiroz looked around at the players and said.

"We were careless in conceding the ball in the first half, so in the second half, everyone must pay attention and cheer up. Don't forget to defend when attacking. After conceding the ball, counterattack immediately. Also,

Yes, the defenders must follow the opponent's No. 7 and not give him a chance to run, so that there will be no threat to the American team," Queiroz said.

Listening to Queiroz's words, the players of the Portuguese national team gradually calmed down and were full of confidence in the second half of the game.

Seeing that the players of the Portuguese national team calmed down, Queiroz breathed a sigh of relief. He firmly believed that if there was no problem with the players of the Portuguese national team, it would be impossible for the players of the American team to defeat them.

of.

However, when he saw Qiu Ze, Queiroz frowned slightly, because the anger on Qiu Ze's face had not diminished at all. It could be seen that Qiu Ze was still worried about what happened in the first half of the game.

, which made Queiroz a little worried.

Queiroz wanted to talk to Qiu Ze again, but at this time, the assistant referee urged him outside the door. Queiroz deserves to let the players of the Portuguese national team come out to prepare for the second half of the game. When he came out, Queiroz reminded the Portuguese national team

The players of the team must stay calm in the second half of the game.

Soon the second half of the game started. The first player to jam the ball in the second half was the American team. Their playing style was exactly the same as the first half. They did not rush to attack, but poured the ball in the backcourt while attracting players from the Portuguese national team.

, while looking for opportunities.

At the end of the first half, the U.S. team relied on such an opportunity to score a goal. The players of the Portuguese national team were already wary of this move by the U.S. team, so they did not notice it after the U.S. team dropped the ball continuously.

Better opportunities.

But the players of the American team were not in a hurry. As if they were satisfied with the one-to-one score, they slowly dumped the ball in the backcourt. The players of the Portuguese national team watched as the players of the American team seemed to

With the idea of ​​stalling for time, they immediately stepped up their pressing.

However, when the players of the Portuguese national team stepped up their pressing, the defensive players of the Portuguese national team focused more closely on the American players around them. Beasley was even more closely monitored. This guy has many

I tried to get rid of it several times, but failed.

Seeing that there were no good opportunities in the frontcourt, and the players of the Portuguese national team pressed harder, the players of the American team who reversed the ball in the backcourt seemed to be a little overwhelmed. At this time, the players of the American team

The frequency of kicks can't help but speed up, which also increases the chance of making mistakes.

Suddenly, Qiu Ze, who was pressing madly in the middle, intercepted Dempsey's pass to the wing. The American team player Meng was shocked.

On the wing, Cristiano Ronaldo saw Qiu Ze stealing the ball, and he immediately moved forward quickly. He happened to insert into the ribs of the U.S. national team's penalty area. At this time, the U.S. team's defense in this position was very weak.

.

This is a good opportunity. If Qiu Ze passes the football, this is definitely a good opportunity. I wonder if Cristiano Ronaldo will successfully counter the offside and directly face the US team's goalkeeper Howard alone.

When running forward, Cristiano Ronaldo raised his hand to ask for the ball. He was confident that after receiving the ball, he would score the football into the US team's goal, so that they would take the lead. Cristiano Ronaldo was extremely eager, and even the US team

The players on the team also saw Cristiano Ronaldo's intention to get the ball.

However, Qiu Ze, who had a very good sight range, did ignore Cristiano Ronaldo. He suddenly moved the football forward, dropped his footing, and wanted to shoot directly from a long distance.

The defensive players of the American team were shocked, and Demerit immediately rushed out like crazy. He couldn't let Qiu Ze shoot directly from a long distance.

However, the moment Demerit rushed out, Qiu Ze flicked his ankle and pushed the football into the penalty area, right at the feet of Hugo Almeida. Ugo Almeida used his body to block the ball behind him.

Onyewu, and then swung his legs to shoot.

The football rolled quickly towards the American team's goal, and the fans of the American team were shocked.

At this moment, Howard, the goalkeeper of the US team, suddenly appeared like a god and turned sideways to catch the football shot by Hugo Almeida in his arms.

The ball didn't go in! The angle of Hugo Almeida's shot was a little too straight. If it had been slightly deflected outward, Howard would have had no chance of hitting the ball.

"Oh, what a pity! Ugo Almeida, you missed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Liu Jianhong, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, said with regret.

The fans of the Portuguese national team at the scene held their heads with their hands and were very upset. How could this goal not be scored? It was a shot so close!

Fans of the Portuguese national team seem to have a feeling that iron cannot be made into steel. Hugo Almeida's feet are too soft. He didn't hit the ball into the penalty area at such a close distance. This is damned.

Ugo Almeida was also upset at this time. He put his head in his hands and regretted for a while. Then he turned to apologize to Qiu Ze, saying that he wasted such a good opportunity and he was ashamed. Qiu Ze raised his hands.

It's okay, and at the same time, he signaled Hugo Almeida to just hit the football into the goal next time.

At this time, Cristiano Ronaldo ran over angrily and roared at Qiu Ze: "Why didn't you pass it over? It was a one-on-one attack. Didn't you see it?"

Seeing Cristiano Ronaldo running over, Qiu Ze knew what Cristiano Ronaldo wanted to do. He ignored it at all and turned directly towards his own half, leaving his back to Cristiano Ronaldo.
