From the man behind the football king to the football king.

Chapter 632 The New King Ascends the Throne

Quaresma stopped the ball in the air and then broke through along the sidelines!

Everyone knows how powerful Quaresma is, so France's left-back Lucas Fernandez came up to him immediately and blocked him from breaking through.

Quaresma had no intention of cutting inside and breaking through. He even pushed the ball to the outside to make it easier for him to accelerate.

Then he kicked the ball to the middle. After scoring the goal, Ronaldo in front of the goal had been double-teamed by two central defenders of the French team, and this time was no exception.

"Don't give him any chance!" France goalkeeper Lori didn't dare to attack and could only stand near the goal line and shout.

Quaresma's pass was very far outside and it was an outswinging ball. If he rushed out rashly and couldn't touch the ball, there would be an empty goal behind him.

Varane is 1.91 meters tall, Umtiti is only 1.82 meters tall but very strong, and Ronaldo is 1.87 meters tall.

Three big guys jumped at the same time in the penalty area, but no one could head the ball. The ball passed over their heads and landed at the feet of Guedes at the back point.

Guedes, who stopped the ball with his thigh, was planning to shoot directly. He had already swung his foot, but at this moment, he caught a glimpse of a red figure out of the corner of his eye.

It's Bruno!

When Guedes' raised left foot landed, the shot turned into a pass and he quickly swept the ball back to the center of the penalty area.

………………

When Bruno saw Quaresma's cross, he rushed into the penalty area at high speed from the midfield. He did not slow down even when he ran into the penalty area. He still did not slow down until the ball was swept over by Guedes!

While running, Bruno's right foot naturally swung up and then put it down, just like a running movement, only his body was slightly tilted, forming an angle with the ground.

This action clearly tells everyone that this is a shot!

The football was hit by Bruno's quickly swinging legs and flew towards the goal like a cannonball!

At such a close distance, French goalkeeper Lori tried his best to make his save, but the football was still one step ahead of him and slipped into the goal between his fingers and the goal post!

The French midfielder Kante, who was supposed to defend him, had already been left behind by Bruno...

"Knockout!!!"

"my God……"

"A beautiful cooperation in the penalty area, Bruno completed the final fatal blow!"

"It was a goal, Portugal is leading again!"

"Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful goal! Very beautiful!"

"GOLOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Incredible game! Portugal is leading again in the final moments!"

……

Commentators from all over the world in the broadcast booth shouted.

………………

At the moment the football rolled into the net, the French fans behind the French goal raised their hands. They were not cheering for the goal, but holding their heads in their hands!

The two French central defenders who had just landed also witnessed a tragedy unfolding...

When Bruno shot the ball into the French team's goal, the French fans behind the goal raised their hands and hugged their heads, while across from them, tens of thousands of Portuguese fans jumped up from their seats and shouted: "Long live Portugal!"

Even the on-site broadcasting erupted with huge shouts: "The ball is in! The ball is in! In the 3th minute, Portugal 2: France!"

"Ohhhhhhh--!!" the Portuguese fans cheered.

"The goal was scored by Portugal's number eight Bruno Fernandes!"

……

The Portuguese fans in the stands praised the DJ's understanding and expressed their gratitude with cheers.

Amid their unbridled cheers, the French fans looked very lonely. Most of them still had their heads in their hands, unwilling to accept the result.

With only a few minutes left in the game, they were already lagging behind.

It's not just them. The players of the French team obviously had dull eyes and no focus when they looked into the distance.

This is a sign of extreme confusion.

The French players were very frustrated about losing the ball in the final moments. They were completely stunned.

Kante, who was responsible for defending Bruno but lost him at the last moment, even knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes.

This is simply an unforgivable mistake.

………………

After Bruno shot the ball, he looked up and saw the football go into the net. Only then did he realize that he had scored a goal and once again defeated the French team!

He opened his arms and ran towards the corner flag.

Bruno rushed to the camera and yelled at it: "Champions! Champions! We are the champions!"

At this moment he was so carried away that he acted unbridled and unruly, unlike his usual self.

Then he turned around and hugged Ronaldo who rushed towards him.

More teammates rushed up and surrounded him, and some kept jumping from the outside onto the crowd.

They waved their fists in protest at the French fans in the stands.

Faced with the provocation from the Portuguese players, the fans of the French team fell into collective silence.

On the other side, the Portuguese fans, separated from them by an entire stadium, were cheering in the stands.

In the subsequent games, the French team was completely stunned by the goal. Although some people still wanted to attack, most people were numb. The French team was pulled into two parts. The disconnected team could not threaten the goal of Portugal.

When the sign for three minutes of injury time was raised, the Portuguese fans cheered, while the French fans, who had finally recovered from Bruno's goal, booed.

They felt that three minutes of extra time was too little.

………………

As the end of the game approached, the emotions of the French fans became unstable. Therefore, the police at the Luzhniki Stadium were highly nervous and kept a close eye on the movements of the French fans, especially those extreme fans who were particularly concerned.

The police have begun to mobilize forces, sending more police officers to the stands where extreme fans are located to maintain order and prevent riots after the game.

The Portuguese fans started a "singing contest", singing the climax of "Campione 2000", the theme song of the 2000 European Cup jointly hosted by the Netherlands and Belgium.

"...Campione, Campione, ole~ole~ole! Campione, Campione, ole~ole~ole~!!"

"...Campione, Campione, ole~ole~ole! Campione, Campione, ole~ole~ole~!!!"

The singing of Portuguese fans resounded through the night sky of Luzhniki Stadium, inspiring the Portuguese players on the field to fight until the last minute.

The three minutes of injury time passed quickly, and France's striker Giroud finally staggered and shot the ball, but it was wildly off target.

Mbappe asked the ball boy for the ball, intending to help Portugal goalkeeper Patricio place the ball on the small penalty area line to buy time for the team.

But at this moment he heard the referee blew a whistle, followed by a second whistle. When the third whistle came out, it could no longer be heard because the entire Luzhniki Stadium was drowned out by another louder sound.

"We are the champions, Portugal! Portugal is the champions!!"

That was the cheer of the Portuguese fans.

………………

"The game is over!" the Portuguese TV commentator shouted excitedly, "The game is over! Portugal won the 2018 World Cup in Russia! They defeated France 3:2 in the final! This was a wonderful game, and Bruno's goal at the last minute helped Portugal win the championship trophy! Congratulations to Portugal! Congratulations to Bruno! Congratulations to Cristiano! Congratulations to every Portuguese player! You are the heroes of the whole of Portugal!"

"The referee blew the whistle to end the game - the game is over! Portugal is the champion! Look at the excitement of the Portuguese fans! At this moment, Luzhniki Stadium belongs to them!"

"France had to accept this bitter result. They thought they could win, but the situation changed suddenly in the second half. They were unable to stop Bruno Fernandes of Portugal..."

"The best player of the game should be Bruno Fernandes, who scored two goals and assisted one goal! He is the biggest contributor to Portugal's victory! He is almost certainly the MVP of this game! Although Cristiano played very well today and scored the key goal to equalize the score, he is still slightly inferior to Bruno."

"Bruno has performed very well in this World Cup. After scoring twice today, his goal tally has reached 7, surpassing his national team captain Cristiano Ronaldo and Manchester United teammate Harry Kane to win the Golden Boot of this World Cup."

………………

The referee's three whistles ignited the emotions of the Portuguese fans in the stands of Luzhniki Stadium. They ended their singing and burst into huge cheers.

Amid their cheers, the Portuguese players hugged each other passionately.

Captain Cristiano Ronaldo took off his clothes as soon as the game ended, revealing his muscular upper body, and ran to the Portuguese fans' stands, jumping and waving his jersey.

The Portuguese captain is so excited!

The victory of this game means so much to him.

Before today, although many people in the football world have called him the king of football, more people still believe that he cannot be considered the real king of football because he lacks the most critical honor to become the king of football - the World Cup championship!

Now, Portugal has successfully won the World Cup, which is equivalent to putting the crown of the king of football on him!

Moreover, whether it was today's final or the entire World Cup, Ronaldo's performance was excellent.

In today's game, he scored the key goal to equalize the score, keeping hope for Portugal's final reversal.

During the entire World Cup, he scored 6 goals, tied for second place with Harry Kane.

Portuguese fans also understood the significance of this game to Ronaldo. First, some fans close to Ronaldo shouted "King of Football". The shouts became stronger and stronger, spreading to more and more areas, until finally all Portuguese fans shouted such voices.
