Football: The Strongest Hexagon Warrior
Chapter 418: The heart-stirring warm-up match, the enthusiasm from the Dragon Kingdom (page 12)
"aoaooaoaoooooo——"
The cheers at the Zurich Stadium came one after another.
Portuguese fans danced and expressed their joy at expanding the score.
In sharp contrast, the Belgian fans shook their heads and sighed, feeling depressed.
Spain coach Lopetegui, Morocco coach Renard and Persia coach Queiroz all feel heavy hearts and have great worries about the future World Cup group matches.
Four teams compete for two qualifying spots.
Judging from the situation on paper, Portugal and Spain have almost locked in two of the few places.
But Morocco and Persia want to compete.
In addition, Spain's current overall strength has declined a bit, and it can definitely compete.
Coupled with the special nature of the World Cup, even Portugal is the most perfect result in the world of fighting countries.
Both Queiroz and Renard want to cause some trouble in Portugal, the favorite to qualify and the biggest favorite to win the Cup.
If we can achieve an upset in the subsequent games that cause trouble, it will naturally be an upset here in Spain!
As long as you complete the set goals, your chances of qualifying will increase significantly!
Belgium, which was trailing by two goals, obviously did not want to accept such an ending. They had to strengthen their offense to see if they could narrow the gap before the end of the first half.
Only then will there be a greater probability of turning defeat into victory.
The Portuguese defensive system led by Martin was gradually assembled, and the overall defensive strength increased significantly. It did not give any chance to the Belgian national team led by De Bruyne and Hazard.
Until the final whistle of the first half sounded, the scoreboard still showed Portugal leading Belgium 2:0.
"The first half is over!"
Central 5 commentator He Weilang said loudly: "Portugal led Belgium 2:0 at the Zurich Stadium with Martin's passing and shooting achievements. It is worth mentioning that with the addition of Martin, Portugal's strength on both offense and defense has increased greatly, especially since it has been criticized in the past. A defensive and sometimes constipated offense..."
"I believe fans of the Portuguese national team know very well that with Martin, Portugal has not only made great achievements on both offense and defense, but its aggressiveness has also been greatly improved."
Guest commentator Xu Yang said solemnly: "Speaking of this, I have to lament that there was once a road leading to the World Cup of the Warring States in front of us, but the competent authorities..."
He was about to say something. He Wei, who was the main commentator, saw Martin in the broadcast and quickly interrupted: "Martin's ability is really too strong. He can bring huge benefits to any team on both offense and defense. With such an increase, it’s no wonder that Portugal can become the biggest favorite to win this World Cup!”
Although He Wei's explanation was timely and did not cause his superiors to temporarily intervene and warn, the fans in front of the TV still heard a lot of content.
The vast majority of Dragon Country fans have long been very dissatisfied with what the Football Association has done, especially the various outrageous actions in the past two years, which have made it impossible to see any possibility of progress, which has also led to more and more fans becoming angry. .
There are also many fans with "special skills" to express their strong dissatisfaction by invading the official website of the Football Association and the content of official accounts on social platforms.
Masters among the people, this sentence has never been true.
Officials have always been on guard, but to no avail.
Therefore, his actions during the half-time break of the match between Portugal and Belgium aroused the cheers of a large number of Dragon Country fans, venting their strong dissatisfaction with the FA.
……
The fifteen minutes of halftime between Belgium and Portugal passed quickly. The starting players from both sides returned to the court through the player tunnel. However, not all players entered the court, but some of them were transferred to the bench. The substitutes who had finished warming up during the halftime break Players appear.
Both sides have made adjustments to their lineups.
However, the ones replaced are not the absolute core players, but those players who have the ability to compete for the starting lineup to find out their feelings, and by the way, see if they can complete the contingency plan B formulated before the game.
Each player's technical ability is different. How to use changes in tactics to display the player's unique technical ability is an important reflection of the ability of a head coach.
Santos has not changed much at the tactical level, but his players are great.
Martinez has a high level of tactics and knows how to use people well. In order to prepare for this World Cup, it can be said that he forgets to eat and sleep.
But that's the case in many cases. It doesn't take hard work to get the same reward.
Portuguese head coach Santos is not very capable, but his luck is unlucky.
In the European Cup in France two years ago, if it were not for the expansion of the team, they would have been eliminated in the group stage after three consecutive draws.
The 1/8 finals against Croatia and the 1/4 finals against Poland were both tied within ninety minutes and relied on overtime goals and penalty kicks respectively to advance to the semi-finals.
Wales met in the semi-finals and was the weakest team to advance to the semi-finals. It was not surprising to win with two goals and advance to the finals.
Facing the host France's 'sacrifice' Cristiano Ronaldo in the final, when almost everyone thought Portugal would lose in the final, they relied on unity and luck to drag the game into a tense situation. In overtime, the little-known Eder was outside the penalty area. He suddenly used a cold arrow to seal his throat with a sword...
Even in the eyes of many fans, Ronaldo, who was injured, has more coaching temperament than Santos on the sidelines.
It is precisely this that shows that Santos is very lucky.
France won the European Cup, and now that Martin has joined the team, the overall strength of the Portuguese national team has increased significantly and they have become the favorite to win the championship.
Substitutions were also made for half of the main players. Portugal, with Martin, played no worse than all the main players in the first half.
Belgium's overall performance has declined severely, and even if De Bruyne and Hazard work very hard, they can't make changes.
On the other hand, Portugal played impressively on both offense and defense.
The Moroccan head coach, the Persian head coach and the Spanish head coach all felt the same headache, but they were also vaguely aware of the possibility of changing the situation.
Portugal's strength does not seem to decline due to too many personnel changes. The most critical direction is Martin's stable performance.
Although Premier League teams and top European clubs have tried to limit Martin's performance in the Premier League and Champions League, the results have all ended in failure.
But in the eyes of Renard, Queiroz and Lopetegui, there is still a possibility of operation, even if the possibility is very low.
Football is a sport full of uncertainty, and no one knows what the outcome of the next game will be.
So far, no team has been able to restrict Martin from doing nothing in the entire game, but it does not mean that future games will still end like past games.
……
Belgium made substitution adjustments but still couldn't find the feeling. Portugal once again created an absolute scoring opportunity.
Martin received B Fee's aggressive through ball in the middle, stopped and turned, and then without making any adjustments, he made a very light pass to the left rib of the penalty area.
Ronaldo's movement took away the defense of Vertonghen and Kompany.
Andre Silva, who came on as a substitute, appeared at the spot where Martin passed the ball. He completed the stop-and-play transition in one go, and the kicked football flew close to the ground and into the lower right corner of the goal...
