[Football] Crown of Thorns

In the 73rd minute of the second half, Balotelli got a red card and the Italian team could only fight with ten men.

"Mr. Ventura's replacement speed was a bit slower. The situation is not very good now. I don't know how he will adjust?"

On the sidelines, Ventura made up his mind. He looked back at the situation on the bench, probably because the team was not in good condition. Most of the players were standing there with anxious faces, and a few players were jogging on the sidelines. keep warming up...

Ventura called his assistant, "Get Pellet ready to play."

"Pellet?"

The assistant coach looked at the coach in surprise.

Ventura ignored his surprise, "Hurry up."

He decided to replace a midfielder and go up to the striker. There was no way, one less person could only let the players make up for the lack of space.

The striker asked Pellet because he saw that in this situation, only Pellet was there to warm up seriously, so he decided to give Pellet a chance.

Substitution for the Italian team.

Florenzi was replaced, Pellet came on, and Bernardeschi retreated to the midfield, and the team changed to 342.

"Italy removed a midfielder and replaced it with a striker to strengthen the striker..."

"May this change bring good luck to the Italians..."

During the throw-in time, the Italian team substituted players. On the pitch, De Sciglio of the Italian team, who was about to throw a throw-in ball, accidentally dropped the ball from the backcourt. The football rolled to the Portuguese's feet.

Fonte, who inexplicably received a gift from the Italian, immediately accepted it with a smile, catching the ball and turning around with a long pass.

After receiving the ball near the middle, Gama made a clever pick...and then he was tripped directly by the rushing De Rossi from the side.

The referee whistles.

Foul by De Rossi, yellow card.

For such an obvious tripping action, it is unreasonable not to give a card. The players of the Italian team only stepped forward to explain a few words in response to the situation, and did not protest.

Jia Ma touched the hanging foot, it hurt a little, but it should be fine.

For players, it is quite normal to fall or something during the game. As long as they are not injured, it is not a problem.

Gama, who was touching his feet, stood up by himself. When he saw the referee showed a yellow card, he didn't say anything else.

With this distance and direction, although it is a free kick in the frontcourt, the possibility of hitting the goal directly is really not high.

Gama turned his head to see Ronaldo.

Ronaldo raised his eyebrows, "Are you coming?"

"No, come on!"

Gama waved his hand.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who raised his eyebrows and slanted his mouth, obviously didn't mean that, but he just looked like a smirk, "Is there any problem with your feet?"

"fine."

The two exchanged a few words and were ready to serve.

Ronaldo looked at the goal. The place where the free throw was made was too far from the goal, and the angle was too straight, which was not conducive to shooting.

Let's play together!

So Ronaldo picked the ball to the other side, and Quaresma rushed out from near the wall, a clever hanging goal.

Buffon slammed in the right direction, but the ball still scraped in from the corner of the post and crossbar in the near corner.

"GOALL!"

"Quaresma!!!"

"Beautiful hanging door."

0-2, in the 79th minute of the second half, the Portuguese team made another victory.

Indeed, the goal was scored, Quaresma ran excitedly for several meters and then slid to the sidelines, followed by tears of excitement.

He waited for this moment for too long, waiting anxiously...

The teammates rushed over one after another, directly pressing on Quaresma's body.

Seeing the tall human tower taking shape, Jia Ma stroked his chin, and then he jumped easily and sat on the highest point of the tower.

As for Quaresma who was pressed at the bottom... Don't worry, this weight is nothing, the players are used to it.

Quaresma: Damn who said it's okay, I'm crushed to death!You bastards, get out of here!

All the emotions of excitement and sadness were instantly suppressed under the pressure of this weight.

The most disgusting thing is that Jia Ma, who was sitting on the top, waved at Ronaldo who hadn't come to stack the Arhats: Come on, come on, let's play together!

In fact, in the national team, Ronaldo is often crushed after scoring a goal, so he understands this pressure well...

The kind-hearted classmate Ronaldo shook his head, "It's enough to press it, and whoever is responsible for the problem is pressed."

Quaresma with only one head exposed under the human tower: Bastard, let me out quickly!

It wasn't until the referee came to intervene that the 'dying' Quaresma was finally released because they had been celebrating for too long.

Seeing his pitiful appearance, Jia Ma smiled happily.

Finally, I got a little bit of revenge, hehe~~

Re-team.

The Italian forcibly broke into the opponent's penalty area from the left rib. Pellet, who had just played, pushed from a small angle with his right foot 9 meters in front of the goal. The ball was confiscated by Patricio.

Pellet shook his head in frustration.

Ventura also waved his hand regretfully on the sidelines.

However, although the goal was missed, Pellet's performance was still very good, which made Ventura slightly satisfied.

The Portuguese team made a mistake in the pass and the ball was robbed by the Italian. Andre Gomez tackled the opponent when he immediately returned and was awarded a foul.

Italy gets a free kick.

De Rossi took a free kick on the left. This is a tactical coordination. After receiving the ball, Bernardeschi made a cross and Chiellini headed the ball.

The ball was blocked out of the baseline by Furtado with his thigh.

After 1 minute, the Italian team hit the goal again, this time their goal was ruled offside.

Ventura was slightly anxious, and he protested to the fourth official.

The players on the field are also protesting.

But the referee Eriksson waved his hand and told them to disperse.

Then the Portuguese team launched an attack.

Gama dribbled through the Italian team's 3 defenders and then cut into the penalty area and made a low pass. Ronaldo's shot 7 meters in front of the goal missed the right post.

Ronaldo shook his head with his hands on his waist. This shot was really not very good.

"You are already the number one shooter, so you have to give others a chance!"

Gama walked over and patted him on the shoulder.

Ronaldo snorted and didn't speak.

The subsequent counterattack by the Italians did not yield any results.

Andre Silva fell in the last pass of Portugal's counterattack. When he fell, his head was hit by Barzagli's leg. Fortunately, after the team doctor checked that he was fine, he was allowed to continue playing on the field.

In the following time, the two sides attacked and counterattacked alternately, but neither got any good chances.

As time passed, the situation became more and more unfavorable for the Italians.

The end of the game was getting closer and closer, and the Portuguese stood up, looking at the court expectantly, waiting for the moment when the winner would be announced.

The Italians covered their mouths, unable to accept the fact that they almost lost.

Gama wiped off his sweat and turned to look at the scoreboard on the sidelines.

Turning his head, he observed that the Italian players seemed a little anxious.

At this time, the Italian coach Ventura on the sidelines looked ready to make another substitution.

It is estimated that the opponent will let go.

Jia Ma thought for a while, raised his arm and gave an instruction to attack.

Although it is not clear why Gama made the offensive gesture at this time, the teammates still accepted his instructions, and the three wings flew together in the frontcourt, complementing each other and crossing each other, catching the Italian by surprise.

MD is now behind us, what are you rushing to attack?

The Italians were a little confused by this stormy attack, but simply their goalkeeper Buffon played at a very high level, turning this storm of storm into nothingness, and he blocked all the opponents in this wave. shoot.

"As expected of Buffon, amazing!"

In the commentary booth, all the commentators are nodding.

Gama stared at Buffon with a serious expression on his lips.

Of course, in the eyes of Furtado, who knows him well, this bastard is probably slandering something in his heart!

The big flower cloth held the ball, and after calming down, he threw the ball out.

Ventura, who was about to make a substitution, stood on the sidelines and looked at the situation on the field. He sighed and stopped the substitution.

No chance.

The Italian team is running out of time.

Ventura looked at his watch, plus stoppage time, there were still seven or eight minutes...

The substitution is just to give players who are not playing a chance, but for the Portuguese, the substitution has no effect.

So what's the use of changing people?

"Shouldn't it be time to change people and let it go?"

"I don't understand what Ventura is thinking?"

"Even if the game is lost, it is also an experience to give young people a chance to show up and let them feel the atmosphere of a World Series..."

"Not only did we lose the game, Ventura also lost in terms of on-the-spot command and tactics..."

However, the Italian players on the field did not give up. They took the ball and played a wave of quick counterattacks.

Verratti scored the ball in time with the instep of the top of the penalty area, and Edel was tackled by Pepe on the right side of the penalty area...

But the referee Eriksson signaled Eder to stand up and did not award a penalty to the Italian.

This drew strong dissatisfaction from the Italians, but Eriksson said it was not a penalty and let them continue the game.

Ventura again protested to the fourth official.

One minute later, it was Edel again. He broke into the Portuguese team's penalty area and knocked back at the bottom line on the left side, but his pass passed behind Fonte, and Fonte quickly drove the ball forward.

Moutinho broke through from the left and passed into the penalty area. Ronaldo's shot was blocked by Buffon.

"The Italians fight hard."

"Unfortunately, if they had earlier..."

Seeing the players working so hard, Ventura finally decided to make a substitution.

He replaced the veteran De Rossi with Immobile. Although Immobile is 28 years old, this is his first official appearance in an international competition.

After playing, Immobile was very desperate. As a forward, he almost ran with all his strength in the frontcourt and grabbed two opportunities, but it was a pity that he failed to convert the opportunities into goals.

In the stands, the Portuguese fans waved their arms and stomped their feet and began to shout loudly. It was the countdown of time: 29, 28, 27...

On the other side, the sad tears of the Italian fans could no longer be held back.

There is ecstasy on one side and sadness on the other. The live camera zooms in from both sides at the same time, showing a pair of vivid pictures.

On the court, Gama sat down on the ground.

His leg twitched.

The leg that was kicked and stepped on several times could no longer bear it after running for a long time.

Furtado, who ran from behind, squatted down and pulled his legs hard.

In the last counting seconds, the Italians were still looking for opportunities, while the Portuguese players all retreated to their own half.

Sitting on the ground, Jia Ma turned his head and looked at everything in front of him, suddenly feeling like he didn't know where he was.

"A game..."

"what?"

"It's nothing."

He looked up at Furtado who was pulling his legs seriously, "I won!"

"Yes, I won."

Furtado grinned, showing his white teeth in a smile.

The whistle of the whole game sounded in the celebration flowers flying all over the sky.

There are happy ones and there are sad ones, but so what, this is the game.

Gama, who was supported by Furtado, watched everything in front of him with a happy smile on his face.

…………

When Buffon came over to exchange jerseys with Gama, the big flower cloth slapped Gama unceremoniously, "Next, you guys work hard!"

"Thank you!"

"By the way," Da Huabu bent slightly and smiled at Jia Ma, "You are very good."

"Uh, thank you..."

The big calico kiss landed directly on Jia Ma's face, and it was double-sided.

Gama froze.

Furtado: Damn it!

…………

The camera was pulled out, and many people said: Hahaha, it's wonderful!

Non-professional fans: great~~

…………

Gama: Can we kill him?

Furtado silently sent tools: I will help you!

Melon Eaters: Hahaha! ! !
