football's most handsome
Chapter 392
keep running.
It's easy to say, but it shouldn't be that difficult to do.
At least that's how it is for most people.
It’s just that Juan can see too many roads, and he has too many things to worry about. These things were originally something that his peers at his age did not have. They are his advantages, but at some point they can become his greatest strengths. hinder.
Like right now.
Although coach Scolari told him to "don't think about anything and run forward", thinking is almost an instinct in his mind, and he can't stop his brain at all. This is simply obsessive-compulsive disorder .
What's more terrible is that he himself is very happy with this, and has no intention of stopping at all.
Scolari also knew that it was impossible for Juan to change for a while, and it was actually because of his paranoid thoughts that made him stand out from a bunch of young people and become what he is today.
Many people just run forward blindly without planning their journey and destination. As a result, they run wrong all the way and end up tossing and tossing. This is not what Juan wants.
Figo beside him was moaning. His shoulders and calves were indeed uncomfortable, and he might not even have the last chance to play. This was not good news for him.
This is the final of World Cup No.1 and No.2. Simply put, this is the closest Portugal is to the Hercules Cup!
He is clearly about to be able to touch the Hercules Cup, and he is clearly almost able to lift the Hercules Cup, how can he allow himself to be late?
To be honest, if there is someone who can replace him in his position, he will not return to the national team without hesitation, return to his position as captain, and he will not act when he knows he is injured. Even if it is inconvenient, we must insist on playing the game.
Compared with Italy, Portugal's bench is too shabby.
Although it is not a matter of a day or two for Portugal's football talents to wither, look at the current midfielder, the pillar is still a Portuguese-Brazilian-yes, he is talking about Deco, but Deco is a good brother!
Taking the example of Deco, he just wanted to show that Portugal's obstetrics is really stretched to this point.
——Although there was Juan Dias in the middle, he retired early. Although he came back after that, Figo always had a sad face during the middle period.
He is the captain of Portugal, and he is really worried about the future of Portugal.
But looking at it now, Portugal has already gone uphill, which is quite gratifying.
They walked all the way, and finally it was time to test the results!
"The Hercules Cup, who doesn't want to take it?" Figo sighed and looked at Juan, "Juan, why don't you take Cristiano with you during training? I'm a little worried that I won't be able to play in the final. If you rely on the three of you for a long time, you may turn your back on your back."
The "you three" he said refers to Cristiano, Juan and Deco. The two other than Deco are young and young, and these two are typical partial players.
——Like Cristiano, strong offensively and weak defensively, as an offensive midfielder, his scoring efficiency is almost comparable to Portugal's forward lineup.
——Like Juan Dias, there is no big problem in offense and defense, but is he too good at pulling hatred?
After hearing what he said, Juan frowned immediately: "What is too good at spreading hatred... I'm just telling the truth, and I didn't say anything in the media."
"Yeah, you really didn't say anything. The people next door have already finished talking for us." Figo sighed, the two of them were taken aback, looked at each other, and laughed at the same time.
On the day of the game, the whole of Portugal was very nervous.
Eating is very nervous, training is very nervous, chatting is very nervous, playing cards is very nervous...
and many more? !
play cards? ! !
When Scolari opened the door, he thought he had made a mistake, but he rubbed his eyes and found that these people were indeed playing cards.
The names of these people are - Figo, Juan, Cristiano, Deco.
Scolari was about to laugh angrily. In fact, he was really angry and laughed back: "What's the matter, the four of you played two rounds before the start of the game?"
This is the final! !World Cup final! !
Why are these four people still playing cards here? ! !
And what's even more frightening is that three of these four are still the absolute main force! !There is one who is also the absolute main force before the injury! !
The four main players gathered together to play cards on the eve of the World Cup! !
What does this level of severity equate to?
A singer is about to participate in a competition that concerns the path of his life, and at this moment the champion is ahead.
...However, on the eve of the game, he was actually playing DOTA.
This kind of thing must never be brought out, if it is brought out, the fans will tear them apart! !
Later, Scolari said in his autobiography: "After entering that room, I was so angry. How could these four people be so irresponsible? There will be a game tomorrow night, but they are still playing poker at noon!
"I thought I would yell at them angrily, tell them to pack up and get out, don't appear in the national team again, even if I lose in the final, I won't let them play! But it didn't, my face even He also brought a smile... But that smile must not look very good, even Figo, who is known as the 'devil', turned his head in discomfort and muttered twice. I think this is my victory.
"I asked what they were doing and the four of them looked at each other and it was Juan who came forward.
"To be honest, after seeing Juan stand up and cough lightly, all my anger disappeared. In fact, at that time, I was even secretly expecting that Juan would say something interesting to divert me away. anger value.
"Later he did, and he was worthy of my expectations. In fact, he only used one sentence at that time. He said, 'Sir, we have found a way to surprise us'."
——Juan did say that, and his expression was very sincere and serious when he spoke like this, Scolari even laughed: "You mean you have figured out a way for us to secure the World Cup... By playing cards?"
"It may not be safe, but at least the probability of scoring can be improved a lot." Juan said seriously.
Scolari even shook his head with a wry smile when recalling this past: "A crazy guy, he knows how to drive me crazy, and he also knows how to drive the entire Portuguese fans crazy... God damn it What’s more, I think his proposal is fantastic.”
Indeed, after Juan finished speaking, Scolari's eyes widened, he pointed tremblingly at his chest, and looked at the three people inside. At this moment, the three people were already sitting upright, looking very serious .
If you ignore the few seconds when they quickly swept the playing cards down their buttocks, they really look like dogs.
"This..." Scolari hesitated for a while, "Are you really discussing tactics, not playing cards?"
"Of course not." Juan's expression was very serious, "And one of us can't play poker."
"Who?" Scolari was startled. There are players who can't play poker?
This is a bit scary. You must know that in the past, in Scolari's mind, most of the players came from ordinary people... or even slums. They played football to change their lives. Therefore, these players Most of them have a lot of skills, such as various card games.
Juan coughed lightly, and pointed to himself under Scolari's knowing gaze.
...Yes, he can't play cards.
"So we're really not playing cards. We're just using the cards to indicate our position." Juan explained, pulling Scolari to sit down, and Skerry turned his head and looked around with great interest.
Several people looked at each other, and finally took out the cards, and then everyone looked at Juan.
Juan was very calm. He took the cards and began to place them, making Scolari raise his eyebrows.
"It does make a lot of sense..."
Juan used two different suits to represent the players of the two teams, and put the big and small kings on the coach's bench to show the difference, and even the back numbers can be the same.
——But he and Cristiano were more embarrassed, but Juan didn't care, but put the clown in his place, and put Zhang K in Cristiano's place.
In this regard, Juan's explanation is very concise and clear: "Both of us have no cards to represent."
"..." Scolari was speechless.
"Of course, this actually represents our own thoughts. If our captain Figo can't play, now we need someone to take on Figo's heavy responsibility. He must be able to attack, defend and organize the whole team. At the same time, we must have the awareness of driving the whole team...Obviously, there is no second Figo in the whole team."
Juan coughed lightly and explained: "So, I shared this task with Cristiano and Deco. I was in charge of defense, Deco was in charge of organizing the team, and Cristiano was in charge of offense... In terms of encouraging morale, the three of us None of them are very good at it, so let’s see who is more suitable at that time.”
"Not good at?" Scolari laughed out loud—to be honest, Cristiano is not qualified enough, and Deco is really not good at it, but if Juan is not good at it, then he is 1 I don't believe it anymore.
If he is not good at it, then the morale of Deportivo last season was created by himself?
You know, whether it is the captain Juan Belleron, the previous Redondo, Romario or the later Rui Costa are not the kind of people who are good at improving morale, but Figo does have a very good leader Ability, but he can't play at this time... His calf will become a time bomb for the team, and if he is not careful, the entire Portugal will be destroyed.
Of course, in fact, Scolari felt that if there was no other way, it would be unavoidable for Figo to play.
After all, there are indeed not many people in Portugal who can rotate.
After Juan arranged the cards, Scolari subconsciously raised his eyebrows—to be honest, at this moment he was startled by Juan's idea.
"Are you so sure that the opponent will play like this? This is not a very common lineup."
"I'm sure." Juan nodded solemnly, with a rare seriousness on his expression: "Even a slight change is harmless, but the opponent will definitely focus on defense, I swear to God."
斯科拉里点头:“这个我知道,但为什么不是4-5-1而是4-4-1-1?”
胡安摆出的这么一个4-4-1-1的阵型也的确是让斯科拉里有些感兴趣,毕竟同样是防守反击,但4-4-1-1阵型和4-5-1其实还是有些区别的。
蜕变于4-5-1阵型的4-4-1-1阵型更能发挥前锋的优势,而且极大加强了中路的攻击力,能给前场更强的串联性,更能发挥意大利链式防守的优势。
Of course, the more important thing is that this kind of formation allows the front midfielder to play the role more fully. They are central midfielders when defending, and they are free players in the frontcourt when counterattacking. This kind of lineup can better reflect it when counterattacking. The advantages.
"Because of their player list." Juan took out a piece of paper and listed the names of the Italian players one by one. Write it down, even if it is a substitute.
"Excluding the players who have been suspended due to injuries and yellow cards, Italy can still make up a very good starting lineup from these players." Juan sighed and crossed out the few people who were related to the reasons he said.
"There are also some adjustments about the status of the players. I can basically guess the squad on the opposite side... The goalkeeper must be Buffon. To be honest, this is what I am most worried about."
"Defenders Zambrotta, Materazzi, Grosso...Of course they can't forget their captain Cannavaro."
"There are even more midfielders, Del Piero, Camoranesi, Gattuso, Pirlo, Iaquinta... They have so many midfielders that it gives me a headache."
"It's the two '1's... Totti or De Rossi? There is at most one more Toni. Anyway, it will not be Inzaghi. Italy needs a striker with a keen sense of touch in front of the goal and a strong scoring ability in this position. And if they play centrally in this game, it's even less likely that Inzaghi will play."
"Of course, the premise of everything is...they mainly play the middle lane."
Juan’s expression is very solemn. Obviously this is also a big gamble. If Italy mainly plays in the middle, then Juan’s guess is right. If not, Portugal may use an inappropriate formation to fight against the opponent. It's easy to fall into a situation where you get off to a bad start.
So after being silent for a while, Scolari raised his eyebrows and asked: "So you actually want us to play on the wing in the future? But the main beam of our wing has been injured."
Indeed, if you have to play on the wing, Figo is absolutely indispensable. Although this sounds very heart-wrenching, Portugal's winger really cannot leave Figo now.
Postiga belongs to the middle, Quaresma has to practice, and Cristiano is on the other side.
At this time, the embarrassment of Portugal and the calmness of Italy's personnel are even more stretched.
Juan smiled all over his face: "So I thought about it for a while, and I took it as a reassurance for these three people, let them calm down a little bit, and don't be so desperate about the future of the team."
——Scolari said that based on his previous analysis, anyone would be desperate.
Juan pointed to the card: "Italy is not invincible. In fact, the most important point of defensive counterattack is that the team using this tactic has surrendered the initiative in the game."
"Yes." Scolari agreed with this point.
"They focus the game in their own half in order to use the gaps behind the opponent's defense to build up a formation and attack with lightning speed, mainly targeting gaps and weaknesses. "
Scolari looked at his options on the Portuguese defender and couldn't help laughing: "So you plan to use offside tactics to deal with it?"
As soon as Scolari said these words, he received amazed gazes from three other people. He was a little confused: "What's wrong?"
"The coach deserves to be a coach!" Cristiano was very emotional. "We have to wait for Juan to explain why we use Valente and Mera. After all, Mera's defense is not very stable."
Scolari said with a smile: "Mella's defense is not stable, but he is very fast, so is Valente. These two people can be responsible for creating offside and interrupting the opponent's tactics, even if they are counter-offside. There are also some fights, and a more secure Paulo Ferreira is indeed a good configuration."
He looked at the position of the midfielder again: "The midfielder is heavily guarded...five people can ensure that the ball is at their feet, as long as the opponent's midfielder can't get the ball, then their defensive counterattack is basically stifled. Most of the time, even with long passes, the success rate will not be high, after all, we have Juan in the midfield.”
Juan smiled and nodded. His own stealing ability can still be among the best in the Portuguese team-you know, he learned from Redondo in intercepting and stealing.
"This will almost block the opponent's counterattack." Scolari felt a little emotional, "There are eight players in the midfield, and it is true that they can effectively block their counterattack, but how to break Italy's defense really depends on this. Two forwards?"
"Of course...more than that." Juan smiled and pointed to the clown and the number ten card in the midfield - these two cards represent him and Deco respectively, "Isn't there both of us here?"
"The two of us are in charge of back-footing and looking for gaps. If there is a chance, we will play forward. If there is no chance, we will look for another opportunity. It is probably useless to dribble the ball alone. Anyway, the forward is not fast. Well, it is estimated that we will not be able to get through here no matter how fast we are, as long as we can carry those people on the opposite side, it will be very good."
After Juan finished speaking, he coughed lightly: "So either Gomez or Pauletta can go up...and with Quaresma, this is my idea."
Scolari studied this formation for a while without making a sound. Seeing him pondering here, Juan and the other three looked at each other and said slowly: "Of course, this is just my own idea, coach you Just listen and laugh and it's over..."
"Of course it's not that simple." Scolari said suddenly and they jumped. The Brazilian coach looked up with a serious expression.
"Juan, do you still remember that we did a simulated combat training in the team half a month ago?"
Juan was stunned and nodded. Of course he remembered. After that game, Scolari often took him to discuss the lineup of the game... Of course, it’s not that they didn’t discuss it often before, but the frequency of discussion has been particularly high since then. , Juan also felt a little strange about this, but he never thought about it, and regarded it as Scolari's support for the younger generation.
"In fact, after that game, I often think about what kind of lineup is more suitable for Portugal now... Is it really your lineup?" Scolari coughed lightly, "Sorry Juan, the previous period During the time, I know you must have a lot of questions, thank you for not puncturing an old man's last self-esteem."
"What did you say? Most of Portugal's progress today is due to your leadership."
"Come on, there is nothing to be modest about this." Scolari waved his hand, "Actually, I originally wanted to use [-]-[-]-[-]-[-] in this game."
Four defenders, two defensive midfielders, three attacking midfielders and a single forward, this is indeed quite suitable for Portugal's current status.
Double defensive midfielders, one Juan and one Maniche, all four defenders are also candidates, and among the three attacking midfielders, Figo can also be replaced by others.
The only problem is... lone striker.
This formation has high requirements on offense and defense. The lone forward must be a strong center who can grab points well, protect the ball well, can hold the ball with his back and has the ability to score.
However, Portugal... Seriously, the title of frontless force has followed them almost the entire World Cup.
After being silent for a while, Juan spoke bluntly for the first time: "With all due respect to the coach, this style of play is not very suitable for Portugal now."
"I know, I know." To his surprise, Scolari admitted, "Compared to your method, my method is indeed not very suitable for the Portuguese team... Such a lineup is not very suitable for Pauletta. The pressure with Gomez is too great, if the two of them play, they will almost have to face the iron barrel defense of the entire Italy, which I did not consider carefully."
"Portugal is actually very short of all-around players... So in this lineup we are easily stretched, especially the two midfielders."
Scolari was indeed deeply introspecting himself. At the beginning, he really felt that his formation was not invincible, but at least he could have an offensive and defensive back and forth when facing Italy.
But after thinking about it carefully, he almost broke out in a cold sweat.
Offensive and defensive back and forth?
Under the pressure of such a lineup, the single striker did not go deep into the enemy's quagmire, and the three attacking midfielders could not effectively form an interception chain.
Thinking of this, Scolari subconsciously wanted to get up and go to the coaching staff for a meeting. He had to discuss it!
"Coach, where are you going?" Juan stopped him. "Tomorrow we will play the game."
Scolari's footsteps stopped, and he even felt cold sweat slowly sliding down his forehead. When he spoke again, his voice was a little hoarse: "But at least I have to do something..."
"A coach who doesn't need to do anything." Juan coughed lightly, "Just play on the spot then."
"Do you think a formation that made such a major mistake before the game can make up for it?" Scolari smiled wryly.
"Haven't we not yet determined the formation of the opponent? Don't scare yourself first, all this is just my guess." Juan always felt very sorry for his head coach, "We were only in the East at the beginning. Chatting and chatting, it was only later that I realized that this game of guessing tomorrow's opponent's lineup to pass the time is not necessarily true."
Scolari nodded subconsciously, and finally calmed down a lot, but then he shook his head with a wry smile: "But I have to say one thing... In these matters, your crow's mouth is definitely the most clever."
"..."
Juan said that he really couldn't take it.
"However, your words have also given me a lot of inspiration. Maybe I should adjust our current lineup a little bit." Scolari took a deep breath.
To be honest, he was really confident at the beginning, but he didn't expect that just such a "routine ward round" would have such a big impact on him.
For this, Juan expressed his apologies: "Coach, how about... we choose to give up?"
"..." If eyes could kill, Scolari might have killed the people in front of him by now.
Of course, he also knew that this person was actually joking, so he sighed and turned around to have a headache.
It should be said that fortunately, I actually have the habit of keeping one hand. Will I not announce the starting lineup and main style of play until the end?
Although in fact I said the style of play, those players may not remember it. Some of these players have not even graduated from high school, and most of them have not received professional coaching training. Many people only know what the coach said. Where to run, or you can judge by yourself through daily training on the court.
In football, thinking about the formation is what the coach should do. The actual situation on the pitch is changing, and the players just play football, so why should they care so much?
Therefore, Scolari turned around with his own happiness and made urgent fine-tuning of the formation, but Juan and the others were all relieved after seeing Scolari leave, looked at each other and took out the cards again.
"Who was the banker just now?"
"Cristiano?"
"Forget it, the cards in your hand are messed up, shall we never do it?"
"Hey, did someone lose just now??"
"not at all……"
The time soon came to the day of the competition, which can be said to be a rare event in the whole year of [-].
The Olympiastadion in Berlin welcomed more than 7 fans. In yesterday's game, many of them bid farewell to the French midfielder Zidane and the German goalkeeper Kahn. Today, they A farewell to Figo, perhaps, a tearful sigh - or a cheer - for the last member of Portugal's golden generation.
Of course, it's not just the 7 fans. In fact, there are at least one billion people looking forward to the game live on TV.
Is Italy, which pays attention to defense and plays steadily, can have the last laugh, or Portugal, which has sprung up suddenly and has a thrilling journey all the way, is better?
No one knows what will happen until the game is over.
"Welcome everyone to watch the live broadcast of the final match between Portugal and Italy in the [-] World Cup on Sky Sports! I am the commentator Frank, and this is my partner Dean! We will be in charge of the commentary for this game! Hey Dean, are you excited?"
"Of course, I am really curious about the performance of the two teams. Will this be a long-lasting battle? Will this be an exciting game that will be recorded in history? Let us wait and see!"
"Not only that, we can see Portuguese President Jorge Sampaio, French President Chirac, Italian President Napolitano, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, UN Secretary-General Annan, South African President Mbeki, Austrian Chancellor Schüsser, Prince Albert of Monaco and other dignitaries have all arrived at the scene to watch the battle, this is really... what are some people doing here?"
"Ahem, you can't say that about Frank. After all, the first four presidents are the semi-finals of the World Cup, especially the presidents of Italy and Portugal. It's not normal if they don't come, and Germany is the host, even if it's No.4. You must come, right? It is normal for the Secretary-General of the United Nations to come to this kind of international event, and it is understandable for the President of South Africa to come. After all, the approval for the World Cup in South Africa has been approved for [-] years. African brothers want to come here to learn advanced experience! As for the others... …Maybe I came here just to watch the game.”
"...you make a lot of sense..."
Before the start of the game, there was a closing ceremony that was not too long—it was not too long, it was only [-] minutes at most, but even this length made many people impatient.
"This arrangement is unreasonable at all! Couldn't they put the closing ceremony as a cross-show during the intermission?!" Frank didn't know that many people agreed with him from the bottom of his heart, especially It was the audience at the scene. Many people said afterwards that it would not be a waste of time to put it in the midfield!
They will have time to go to the bathroom and take a rest!And you don't have to wait for the game!
Of course, no matter how angry they were, the closing ceremony began. Fortunately, the closing ceremony was short enough, and soon it was the turn of the two teams to play.
Frank and Dean also received the starting rosters of the two teams when the players of the two teams were on the field.
Frank lowered his head for a look, and read very smoothly: "It seems that Italy is going to play a defensive counterattack. We have always recognized that defensive counterattack is a way for a weak team to play against a strong team. Of course, Chelsea in the Premier League has proved this for us. It’s a fallacy, but when I saw the list, I think many people will have the same idea as me...”
"Italy starting lineup - Buffon; Materazzi, Zambrotta, Cannavaro, Grosso; Camoranesi, Gattuso, Pirlo, Perotta; Totti; Toni ...Wow, [-]-[-]-[-]-[-]!"
Scolari almost laughed bitterly.
[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]!
What a lineup!
Juan Diaz, the crow's mouth, hit the mark again! !
Juan, who was sitting on the bench, was inexplicably stared by Scolari's turning back, but when he heard the commentary in the stadium report the starting lineup for Italy, his eyes became wider and wider. He could only smile wryly and spread it out on the chair, turning around to look at Figo, who was also slumped on the chair.
The two looked at each other and smiled wryly.
"What should I do, maybe it's not just Mr. Scolari, I also want to hit you right now." Figo's voice was a little weak.
Juan said: "What can I do, I am also very desperate..."
How did he know that he could say so accurately? !
But soon, the two lifted their spirits—after all, this was the final.
Compared with these two people, the commentators were stunned for a moment when they saw Portugal's roster, especially Frank and Dean, who almost jumped up.
"No Figo, no Dias?!"
The two looked at each other, and at the same time showed a very incomprehensible expression: "What is Scolari thinking, does he want to give up this game directly?"
"No, that's not right." Dean finally calmed down, "Look carefully at the lineup for this game... I think Scolari has considered it carefully."
"What consideration, how to send Portugal into the abyss?" Frank asked angrily.
"Of course not!" Dean frowned, "Look at this lineup... Ricardo; Paulo Ferreira, Mela, Ricardo Costa, Valente; Costinha, Maniche; Cristiano Ronaldo, Deco, Postiga; Pauleta, apart from Figo and Juan, Scolari is already the main force."
"To be honest... Dean, what do you think Portugal would be without Deco and Juan Dias?"
Dean was silent for a while and then answered with difficulty: "I don't know..."
He really didn't know. In fact, Maniche, the captain of the game, didn't know what to do.
He looked back at the direction of the bench, only to see his captain talking and laughing with Juan? ?
Please, ask the two big guys to take a look at their starting team, is there anyone still smiling at this moment? !
...there really are.
Both Deco and Cristiano are smiling, of course not very happy smiles, that would be very annoying, the corners of their mouths are slightly raised, and they are not as calm as many Portuguese players and fans. He was going to kill someone, but he seemed to be in a good mood, which was particularly conspicuous.
"Why are those two people so happy?" Frank was puzzled. "Could it be that these two people saw the possibility of being in the top position?"
"...Don't talk nonsense." Dean glanced at his unreliable partner and said slowly: "I think these two people are very confident in the game, although I haven't found out the source of such confidence so far. Where did it come from?"
Not only was the commentator not found, but his teammates and opponents were not found either.
...not even the caddy they were leading!
When the caddies were about to leave the field, Cristiano’s clothes were pulled. The Portuguese teenager looked down in surprise. The little girl stared at him timidly with wide eyes. She spoke clear and loud in Portuguese: “ Will we win?"
Cristiano was taken aback, touched the little girl's head and smiled, "I don't know...but we will do our best."
He didn't say "definitely", which surprised his teammates a little. Costinha looked back at him several times, and Cristiano couldn't help but look back: "What's wrong?"
"I thought you would definitely say 'Definitely!' based on your character..." Costinia was a little embarrassed. Could it be that he misunderstood Cristiano's character?
Actually Cristiano is a very humble kid?
Cristiano didn't think much about it, turned around and ran away after leaving a word, leaving Costinia alone in a mess.
Cristiano said: "I just thought it was cool to say that..."
The brat is really a brat!
At the beginning of the game, Portugal showed its strongest side!
Although they are weak, they have a Cristiano who has gradually shown his edge in offense!
Deco made a long pass from the midfielder, and Pauletta flew a header near the left sideline. The football was passed to Postiga's feet. Postiga turned around and cut into the penalty area, and magically broke through Cannavaro and Materazzi's defense!
...Yes, many commentators have used the word "miraculous" in unison. If the person who made this action was Cristiano, most of them would probably praise it, but Postiga?
It's really amazing...
But Postiga's magic didn't last long, and the next second he fell to the ground-his calf collided with Materazzi's raised left leg.
opportunity!
That was all Postiga could think of.
And the facts did not live up to his expectations. Just in the second minute of the game, he made Italy change color.
Argentine referee Elizondo stepped forward to check the situation, and then pointed to the penalty spot seriously.
penalty! !
portuguese opening
It's easy to say, but it shouldn't be that difficult to do.
At least that's how it is for most people.
It’s just that Juan can see too many roads, and he has too many things to worry about. These things were originally something that his peers at his age did not have. They are his advantages, but at some point they can become his greatest strengths. hinder.
Like right now.
Although coach Scolari told him to "don't think about anything and run forward", thinking is almost an instinct in his mind, and he can't stop his brain at all. This is simply obsessive-compulsive disorder .
What's more terrible is that he himself is very happy with this, and has no intention of stopping at all.
Scolari also knew that it was impossible for Juan to change for a while, and it was actually because of his paranoid thoughts that made him stand out from a bunch of young people and become what he is today.
Many people just run forward blindly without planning their journey and destination. As a result, they run wrong all the way and end up tossing and tossing. This is not what Juan wants.
Figo beside him was moaning. His shoulders and calves were indeed uncomfortable, and he might not even have the last chance to play. This was not good news for him.
This is the final of World Cup No.1 and No.2. Simply put, this is the closest Portugal is to the Hercules Cup!
He is clearly about to be able to touch the Hercules Cup, and he is clearly almost able to lift the Hercules Cup, how can he allow himself to be late?
To be honest, if there is someone who can replace him in his position, he will not return to the national team without hesitation, return to his position as captain, and he will not act when he knows he is injured. Even if it is inconvenient, we must insist on playing the game.
Compared with Italy, Portugal's bench is too shabby.
Although it is not a matter of a day or two for Portugal's football talents to wither, look at the current midfielder, the pillar is still a Portuguese-Brazilian-yes, he is talking about Deco, but Deco is a good brother!
Taking the example of Deco, he just wanted to show that Portugal's obstetrics is really stretched to this point.
——Although there was Juan Dias in the middle, he retired early. Although he came back after that, Figo always had a sad face during the middle period.
He is the captain of Portugal, and he is really worried about the future of Portugal.
But looking at it now, Portugal has already gone uphill, which is quite gratifying.
They walked all the way, and finally it was time to test the results!
"The Hercules Cup, who doesn't want to take it?" Figo sighed and looked at Juan, "Juan, why don't you take Cristiano with you during training? I'm a little worried that I won't be able to play in the final. If you rely on the three of you for a long time, you may turn your back on your back."
The "you three" he said refers to Cristiano, Juan and Deco. The two other than Deco are young and young, and these two are typical partial players.
——Like Cristiano, strong offensively and weak defensively, as an offensive midfielder, his scoring efficiency is almost comparable to Portugal's forward lineup.
——Like Juan Dias, there is no big problem in offense and defense, but is he too good at pulling hatred?
After hearing what he said, Juan frowned immediately: "What is too good at spreading hatred... I'm just telling the truth, and I didn't say anything in the media."
"Yeah, you really didn't say anything. The people next door have already finished talking for us." Figo sighed, the two of them were taken aback, looked at each other, and laughed at the same time.
On the day of the game, the whole of Portugal was very nervous.
Eating is very nervous, training is very nervous, chatting is very nervous, playing cards is very nervous...
and many more? !
play cards? ! !
When Scolari opened the door, he thought he had made a mistake, but he rubbed his eyes and found that these people were indeed playing cards.
The names of these people are - Figo, Juan, Cristiano, Deco.
Scolari was about to laugh angrily. In fact, he was really angry and laughed back: "What's the matter, the four of you played two rounds before the start of the game?"
This is the final! !World Cup final! !
Why are these four people still playing cards here? ! !
And what's even more frightening is that three of these four are still the absolute main force! !There is one who is also the absolute main force before the injury! !
The four main players gathered together to play cards on the eve of the World Cup! !
What does this level of severity equate to?
A singer is about to participate in a competition that concerns the path of his life, and at this moment the champion is ahead.
...However, on the eve of the game, he was actually playing DOTA.
This kind of thing must never be brought out, if it is brought out, the fans will tear them apart! !
Later, Scolari said in his autobiography: "After entering that room, I was so angry. How could these four people be so irresponsible? There will be a game tomorrow night, but they are still playing poker at noon!
"I thought I would yell at them angrily, tell them to pack up and get out, don't appear in the national team again, even if I lose in the final, I won't let them play! But it didn't, my face even He also brought a smile... But that smile must not look very good, even Figo, who is known as the 'devil', turned his head in discomfort and muttered twice. I think this is my victory.
"I asked what they were doing and the four of them looked at each other and it was Juan who came forward.
"To be honest, after seeing Juan stand up and cough lightly, all my anger disappeared. In fact, at that time, I was even secretly expecting that Juan would say something interesting to divert me away. anger value.
"Later he did, and he was worthy of my expectations. In fact, he only used one sentence at that time. He said, 'Sir, we have found a way to surprise us'."
——Juan did say that, and his expression was very sincere and serious when he spoke like this, Scolari even laughed: "You mean you have figured out a way for us to secure the World Cup... By playing cards?"
"It may not be safe, but at least the probability of scoring can be improved a lot." Juan said seriously.
Scolari even shook his head with a wry smile when recalling this past: "A crazy guy, he knows how to drive me crazy, and he also knows how to drive the entire Portuguese fans crazy... God damn it What’s more, I think his proposal is fantastic.”
Indeed, after Juan finished speaking, Scolari's eyes widened, he pointed tremblingly at his chest, and looked at the three people inside. At this moment, the three people were already sitting upright, looking very serious .
If you ignore the few seconds when they quickly swept the playing cards down their buttocks, they really look like dogs.
"This..." Scolari hesitated for a while, "Are you really discussing tactics, not playing cards?"
"Of course not." Juan's expression was very serious, "And one of us can't play poker."
"Who?" Scolari was startled. There are players who can't play poker?
This is a bit scary. You must know that in the past, in Scolari's mind, most of the players came from ordinary people... or even slums. They played football to change their lives. Therefore, these players Most of them have a lot of skills, such as various card games.
Juan coughed lightly, and pointed to himself under Scolari's knowing gaze.
...Yes, he can't play cards.
"So we're really not playing cards. We're just using the cards to indicate our position." Juan explained, pulling Scolari to sit down, and Skerry turned his head and looked around with great interest.
Several people looked at each other, and finally took out the cards, and then everyone looked at Juan.
Juan was very calm. He took the cards and began to place them, making Scolari raise his eyebrows.
"It does make a lot of sense..."
Juan used two different suits to represent the players of the two teams, and put the big and small kings on the coach's bench to show the difference, and even the back numbers can be the same.
——But he and Cristiano were more embarrassed, but Juan didn't care, but put the clown in his place, and put Zhang K in Cristiano's place.
In this regard, Juan's explanation is very concise and clear: "Both of us have no cards to represent."
"..." Scolari was speechless.
"Of course, this actually represents our own thoughts. If our captain Figo can't play, now we need someone to take on Figo's heavy responsibility. He must be able to attack, defend and organize the whole team. At the same time, we must have the awareness of driving the whole team...Obviously, there is no second Figo in the whole team."
Juan coughed lightly and explained: "So, I shared this task with Cristiano and Deco. I was in charge of defense, Deco was in charge of organizing the team, and Cristiano was in charge of offense... In terms of encouraging morale, the three of us None of them are very good at it, so let’s see who is more suitable at that time.”
"Not good at?" Scolari laughed out loud—to be honest, Cristiano is not qualified enough, and Deco is really not good at it, but if Juan is not good at it, then he is 1 I don't believe it anymore.
If he is not good at it, then the morale of Deportivo last season was created by himself?
You know, whether it is the captain Juan Belleron, the previous Redondo, Romario or the later Rui Costa are not the kind of people who are good at improving morale, but Figo does have a very good leader Ability, but he can't play at this time... His calf will become a time bomb for the team, and if he is not careful, the entire Portugal will be destroyed.
Of course, in fact, Scolari felt that if there was no other way, it would be unavoidable for Figo to play.
After all, there are indeed not many people in Portugal who can rotate.
After Juan arranged the cards, Scolari subconsciously raised his eyebrows—to be honest, at this moment he was startled by Juan's idea.
"Are you so sure that the opponent will play like this? This is not a very common lineup."
"I'm sure." Juan nodded solemnly, with a rare seriousness on his expression: "Even a slight change is harmless, but the opponent will definitely focus on defense, I swear to God."
斯科拉里点头:“这个我知道,但为什么不是4-5-1而是4-4-1-1?”
胡安摆出的这么一个4-4-1-1的阵型也的确是让斯科拉里有些感兴趣,毕竟同样是防守反击,但4-4-1-1阵型和4-5-1其实还是有些区别的。
蜕变于4-5-1阵型的4-4-1-1阵型更能发挥前锋的优势,而且极大加强了中路的攻击力,能给前场更强的串联性,更能发挥意大利链式防守的优势。
Of course, the more important thing is that this kind of formation allows the front midfielder to play the role more fully. They are central midfielders when defending, and they are free players in the frontcourt when counterattacking. This kind of lineup can better reflect it when counterattacking. The advantages.
"Because of their player list." Juan took out a piece of paper and listed the names of the Italian players one by one. Write it down, even if it is a substitute.
"Excluding the players who have been suspended due to injuries and yellow cards, Italy can still make up a very good starting lineup from these players." Juan sighed and crossed out the few people who were related to the reasons he said.
"There are also some adjustments about the status of the players. I can basically guess the squad on the opposite side... The goalkeeper must be Buffon. To be honest, this is what I am most worried about."
"Defenders Zambrotta, Materazzi, Grosso...Of course they can't forget their captain Cannavaro."
"There are even more midfielders, Del Piero, Camoranesi, Gattuso, Pirlo, Iaquinta... They have so many midfielders that it gives me a headache."
"It's the two '1's... Totti or De Rossi? There is at most one more Toni. Anyway, it will not be Inzaghi. Italy needs a striker with a keen sense of touch in front of the goal and a strong scoring ability in this position. And if they play centrally in this game, it's even less likely that Inzaghi will play."
"Of course, the premise of everything is...they mainly play the middle lane."
Juan’s expression is very solemn. Obviously this is also a big gamble. If Italy mainly plays in the middle, then Juan’s guess is right. If not, Portugal may use an inappropriate formation to fight against the opponent. It's easy to fall into a situation where you get off to a bad start.
So after being silent for a while, Scolari raised his eyebrows and asked: "So you actually want us to play on the wing in the future? But the main beam of our wing has been injured."
Indeed, if you have to play on the wing, Figo is absolutely indispensable. Although this sounds very heart-wrenching, Portugal's winger really cannot leave Figo now.
Postiga belongs to the middle, Quaresma has to practice, and Cristiano is on the other side.
At this time, the embarrassment of Portugal and the calmness of Italy's personnel are even more stretched.
Juan smiled all over his face: "So I thought about it for a while, and I took it as a reassurance for these three people, let them calm down a little bit, and don't be so desperate about the future of the team."
——Scolari said that based on his previous analysis, anyone would be desperate.
Juan pointed to the card: "Italy is not invincible. In fact, the most important point of defensive counterattack is that the team using this tactic has surrendered the initiative in the game."
"Yes." Scolari agreed with this point.
"They focus the game in their own half in order to use the gaps behind the opponent's defense to build up a formation and attack with lightning speed, mainly targeting gaps and weaknesses. "
Scolari looked at his options on the Portuguese defender and couldn't help laughing: "So you plan to use offside tactics to deal with it?"
As soon as Scolari said these words, he received amazed gazes from three other people. He was a little confused: "What's wrong?"
"The coach deserves to be a coach!" Cristiano was very emotional. "We have to wait for Juan to explain why we use Valente and Mera. After all, Mera's defense is not very stable."
Scolari said with a smile: "Mella's defense is not stable, but he is very fast, so is Valente. These two people can be responsible for creating offside and interrupting the opponent's tactics, even if they are counter-offside. There are also some fights, and a more secure Paulo Ferreira is indeed a good configuration."
He looked at the position of the midfielder again: "The midfielder is heavily guarded...five people can ensure that the ball is at their feet, as long as the opponent's midfielder can't get the ball, then their defensive counterattack is basically stifled. Most of the time, even with long passes, the success rate will not be high, after all, we have Juan in the midfield.”
Juan smiled and nodded. His own stealing ability can still be among the best in the Portuguese team-you know, he learned from Redondo in intercepting and stealing.
"This will almost block the opponent's counterattack." Scolari felt a little emotional, "There are eight players in the midfield, and it is true that they can effectively block their counterattack, but how to break Italy's defense really depends on this. Two forwards?"
"Of course...more than that." Juan smiled and pointed to the clown and the number ten card in the midfield - these two cards represent him and Deco respectively, "Isn't there both of us here?"
"The two of us are in charge of back-footing and looking for gaps. If there is a chance, we will play forward. If there is no chance, we will look for another opportunity. It is probably useless to dribble the ball alone. Anyway, the forward is not fast. Well, it is estimated that we will not be able to get through here no matter how fast we are, as long as we can carry those people on the opposite side, it will be very good."
After Juan finished speaking, he coughed lightly: "So either Gomez or Pauletta can go up...and with Quaresma, this is my idea."
Scolari studied this formation for a while without making a sound. Seeing him pondering here, Juan and the other three looked at each other and said slowly: "Of course, this is just my own idea, coach you Just listen and laugh and it's over..."
"Of course it's not that simple." Scolari said suddenly and they jumped. The Brazilian coach looked up with a serious expression.
"Juan, do you still remember that we did a simulated combat training in the team half a month ago?"
Juan was stunned and nodded. Of course he remembered. After that game, Scolari often took him to discuss the lineup of the game... Of course, it’s not that they didn’t discuss it often before, but the frequency of discussion has been particularly high since then. , Juan also felt a little strange about this, but he never thought about it, and regarded it as Scolari's support for the younger generation.
"In fact, after that game, I often think about what kind of lineup is more suitable for Portugal now... Is it really your lineup?" Scolari coughed lightly, "Sorry Juan, the previous period During the time, I know you must have a lot of questions, thank you for not puncturing an old man's last self-esteem."
"What did you say? Most of Portugal's progress today is due to your leadership."
"Come on, there is nothing to be modest about this." Scolari waved his hand, "Actually, I originally wanted to use [-]-[-]-[-]-[-] in this game."
Four defenders, two defensive midfielders, three attacking midfielders and a single forward, this is indeed quite suitable for Portugal's current status.
Double defensive midfielders, one Juan and one Maniche, all four defenders are also candidates, and among the three attacking midfielders, Figo can also be replaced by others.
The only problem is... lone striker.
This formation has high requirements on offense and defense. The lone forward must be a strong center who can grab points well, protect the ball well, can hold the ball with his back and has the ability to score.
However, Portugal... Seriously, the title of frontless force has followed them almost the entire World Cup.
After being silent for a while, Juan spoke bluntly for the first time: "With all due respect to the coach, this style of play is not very suitable for Portugal now."
"I know, I know." To his surprise, Scolari admitted, "Compared to your method, my method is indeed not very suitable for the Portuguese team... Such a lineup is not very suitable for Pauletta. The pressure with Gomez is too great, if the two of them play, they will almost have to face the iron barrel defense of the entire Italy, which I did not consider carefully."
"Portugal is actually very short of all-around players... So in this lineup we are easily stretched, especially the two midfielders."
Scolari was indeed deeply introspecting himself. At the beginning, he really felt that his formation was not invincible, but at least he could have an offensive and defensive back and forth when facing Italy.
But after thinking about it carefully, he almost broke out in a cold sweat.
Offensive and defensive back and forth?
Under the pressure of such a lineup, the single striker did not go deep into the enemy's quagmire, and the three attacking midfielders could not effectively form an interception chain.
Thinking of this, Scolari subconsciously wanted to get up and go to the coaching staff for a meeting. He had to discuss it!
"Coach, where are you going?" Juan stopped him. "Tomorrow we will play the game."
Scolari's footsteps stopped, and he even felt cold sweat slowly sliding down his forehead. When he spoke again, his voice was a little hoarse: "But at least I have to do something..."
"A coach who doesn't need to do anything." Juan coughed lightly, "Just play on the spot then."
"Do you think a formation that made such a major mistake before the game can make up for it?" Scolari smiled wryly.
"Haven't we not yet determined the formation of the opponent? Don't scare yourself first, all this is just my guess." Juan always felt very sorry for his head coach, "We were only in the East at the beginning. Chatting and chatting, it was only later that I realized that this game of guessing tomorrow's opponent's lineup to pass the time is not necessarily true."
Scolari nodded subconsciously, and finally calmed down a lot, but then he shook his head with a wry smile: "But I have to say one thing... In these matters, your crow's mouth is definitely the most clever."
"..."
Juan said that he really couldn't take it.
"However, your words have also given me a lot of inspiration. Maybe I should adjust our current lineup a little bit." Scolari took a deep breath.
To be honest, he was really confident at the beginning, but he didn't expect that just such a "routine ward round" would have such a big impact on him.
For this, Juan expressed his apologies: "Coach, how about... we choose to give up?"
"..." If eyes could kill, Scolari might have killed the people in front of him by now.
Of course, he also knew that this person was actually joking, so he sighed and turned around to have a headache.
It should be said that fortunately, I actually have the habit of keeping one hand. Will I not announce the starting lineup and main style of play until the end?
Although in fact I said the style of play, those players may not remember it. Some of these players have not even graduated from high school, and most of them have not received professional coaching training. Many people only know what the coach said. Where to run, or you can judge by yourself through daily training on the court.
In football, thinking about the formation is what the coach should do. The actual situation on the pitch is changing, and the players just play football, so why should they care so much?
Therefore, Scolari turned around with his own happiness and made urgent fine-tuning of the formation, but Juan and the others were all relieved after seeing Scolari leave, looked at each other and took out the cards again.
"Who was the banker just now?"
"Cristiano?"
"Forget it, the cards in your hand are messed up, shall we never do it?"
"Hey, did someone lose just now??"
"not at all……"
The time soon came to the day of the competition, which can be said to be a rare event in the whole year of [-].
The Olympiastadion in Berlin welcomed more than 7 fans. In yesterday's game, many of them bid farewell to the French midfielder Zidane and the German goalkeeper Kahn. Today, they A farewell to Figo, perhaps, a tearful sigh - or a cheer - for the last member of Portugal's golden generation.
Of course, it's not just the 7 fans. In fact, there are at least one billion people looking forward to the game live on TV.
Is Italy, which pays attention to defense and plays steadily, can have the last laugh, or Portugal, which has sprung up suddenly and has a thrilling journey all the way, is better?
No one knows what will happen until the game is over.
"Welcome everyone to watch the live broadcast of the final match between Portugal and Italy in the [-] World Cup on Sky Sports! I am the commentator Frank, and this is my partner Dean! We will be in charge of the commentary for this game! Hey Dean, are you excited?"
"Of course, I am really curious about the performance of the two teams. Will this be a long-lasting battle? Will this be an exciting game that will be recorded in history? Let us wait and see!"
"Not only that, we can see Portuguese President Jorge Sampaio, French President Chirac, Italian President Napolitano, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, UN Secretary-General Annan, South African President Mbeki, Austrian Chancellor Schüsser, Prince Albert of Monaco and other dignitaries have all arrived at the scene to watch the battle, this is really... what are some people doing here?"
"Ahem, you can't say that about Frank. After all, the first four presidents are the semi-finals of the World Cup, especially the presidents of Italy and Portugal. It's not normal if they don't come, and Germany is the host, even if it's No.4. You must come, right? It is normal for the Secretary-General of the United Nations to come to this kind of international event, and it is understandable for the President of South Africa to come. After all, the approval for the World Cup in South Africa has been approved for [-] years. African brothers want to come here to learn advanced experience! As for the others... …Maybe I came here just to watch the game.”
"...you make a lot of sense..."
Before the start of the game, there was a closing ceremony that was not too long—it was not too long, it was only [-] minutes at most, but even this length made many people impatient.
"This arrangement is unreasonable at all! Couldn't they put the closing ceremony as a cross-show during the intermission?!" Frank didn't know that many people agreed with him from the bottom of his heart, especially It was the audience at the scene. Many people said afterwards that it would not be a waste of time to put it in the midfield!
They will have time to go to the bathroom and take a rest!And you don't have to wait for the game!
Of course, no matter how angry they were, the closing ceremony began. Fortunately, the closing ceremony was short enough, and soon it was the turn of the two teams to play.
Frank and Dean also received the starting rosters of the two teams when the players of the two teams were on the field.
Frank lowered his head for a look, and read very smoothly: "It seems that Italy is going to play a defensive counterattack. We have always recognized that defensive counterattack is a way for a weak team to play against a strong team. Of course, Chelsea in the Premier League has proved this for us. It’s a fallacy, but when I saw the list, I think many people will have the same idea as me...”
"Italy starting lineup - Buffon; Materazzi, Zambrotta, Cannavaro, Grosso; Camoranesi, Gattuso, Pirlo, Perotta; Totti; Toni ...Wow, [-]-[-]-[-]-[-]!"
Scolari almost laughed bitterly.
[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]!
What a lineup!
Juan Diaz, the crow's mouth, hit the mark again! !
Juan, who was sitting on the bench, was inexplicably stared by Scolari's turning back, but when he heard the commentary in the stadium report the starting lineup for Italy, his eyes became wider and wider. He could only smile wryly and spread it out on the chair, turning around to look at Figo, who was also slumped on the chair.
The two looked at each other and smiled wryly.
"What should I do, maybe it's not just Mr. Scolari, I also want to hit you right now." Figo's voice was a little weak.
Juan said: "What can I do, I am also very desperate..."
How did he know that he could say so accurately? !
But soon, the two lifted their spirits—after all, this was the final.
Compared with these two people, the commentators were stunned for a moment when they saw Portugal's roster, especially Frank and Dean, who almost jumped up.
"No Figo, no Dias?!"
The two looked at each other, and at the same time showed a very incomprehensible expression: "What is Scolari thinking, does he want to give up this game directly?"
"No, that's not right." Dean finally calmed down, "Look carefully at the lineup for this game... I think Scolari has considered it carefully."
"What consideration, how to send Portugal into the abyss?" Frank asked angrily.
"Of course not!" Dean frowned, "Look at this lineup... Ricardo; Paulo Ferreira, Mela, Ricardo Costa, Valente; Costinha, Maniche; Cristiano Ronaldo, Deco, Postiga; Pauleta, apart from Figo and Juan, Scolari is already the main force."
"To be honest... Dean, what do you think Portugal would be without Deco and Juan Dias?"
Dean was silent for a while and then answered with difficulty: "I don't know..."
He really didn't know. In fact, Maniche, the captain of the game, didn't know what to do.
He looked back at the direction of the bench, only to see his captain talking and laughing with Juan? ?
Please, ask the two big guys to take a look at their starting team, is there anyone still smiling at this moment? !
...there really are.
Both Deco and Cristiano are smiling, of course not very happy smiles, that would be very annoying, the corners of their mouths are slightly raised, and they are not as calm as many Portuguese players and fans. He was going to kill someone, but he seemed to be in a good mood, which was particularly conspicuous.
"Why are those two people so happy?" Frank was puzzled. "Could it be that these two people saw the possibility of being in the top position?"
"...Don't talk nonsense." Dean glanced at his unreliable partner and said slowly: "I think these two people are very confident in the game, although I haven't found out the source of such confidence so far. Where did it come from?"
Not only was the commentator not found, but his teammates and opponents were not found either.
...not even the caddy they were leading!
When the caddies were about to leave the field, Cristiano’s clothes were pulled. The Portuguese teenager looked down in surprise. The little girl stared at him timidly with wide eyes. She spoke clear and loud in Portuguese: “ Will we win?"
Cristiano was taken aback, touched the little girl's head and smiled, "I don't know...but we will do our best."
He didn't say "definitely", which surprised his teammates a little. Costinha looked back at him several times, and Cristiano couldn't help but look back: "What's wrong?"
"I thought you would definitely say 'Definitely!' based on your character..." Costinia was a little embarrassed. Could it be that he misunderstood Cristiano's character?
Actually Cristiano is a very humble kid?
Cristiano didn't think much about it, turned around and ran away after leaving a word, leaving Costinia alone in a mess.
Cristiano said: "I just thought it was cool to say that..."
The brat is really a brat!
At the beginning of the game, Portugal showed its strongest side!
Although they are weak, they have a Cristiano who has gradually shown his edge in offense!
Deco made a long pass from the midfielder, and Pauletta flew a header near the left sideline. The football was passed to Postiga's feet. Postiga turned around and cut into the penalty area, and magically broke through Cannavaro and Materazzi's defense!
...Yes, many commentators have used the word "miraculous" in unison. If the person who made this action was Cristiano, most of them would probably praise it, but Postiga?
It's really amazing...
But Postiga's magic didn't last long, and the next second he fell to the ground-his calf collided with Materazzi's raised left leg.
opportunity!
That was all Postiga could think of.
And the facts did not live up to his expectations. Just in the second minute of the game, he made Italy change color.
Argentine referee Elizondo stepped forward to check the situation, and then pointed to the penalty spot seriously.
penalty! !
