I watched Philip and his teammates lift the Delaunay Cup, and I couldn't help but burst into tears. I know how much effort Philip has put in for this moment.

——The Autobiography of Maria Baggio

Many people in the Portuguese team are club teammates or old opponents of the Italians, so before the game, in the player tunnel, the two teams greeted each other cordially when they met.

Inzaghi got the start in this game, and he will partner with Vieri as a striker.Even if he is unwilling, he knows that facing the host country at the right time and place, he is only one step away from entering the final, so Del Piero can only be aggrieved as his midfielder, and of course there is an equally aggrieved Totti next to him. It made him feel more comfortable.

There are several Milan players in the Italian team, so when they saw Rui Costa in the Portuguese team, several of their club teammates greeted each other.

Rui also looks like a cool and handsome male god, but in fact his stomach is full of black. He plays well with Nesta, Pirlo, Gattuso and Inzaghi on weekdays. He likes to do some bad things together. Although Kaka has gradually replaced his main position, the relationship with these teammates is still as good as ever.So at this moment when a knockout match is about to start, he can also come over and have a few words with a few teammates, making a joke.Not only that, he also conveniently withdrew his team leader, and his team leader was rubbing his own young general at that time, so he was brought here along with him.

Speaking of which, Figo has played against several Italians present for a long time. The history can be traced back to the [-] European Youth Championship.The final of the European Youth Championship was played between Italy and Portugal. In the end, with Inzaghi's goal in overtime, Italy won the European Youth Championship that year.By the way, that European Youth Championship was also the beginning of Portugal's golden generation on the stage of the competition. The MVP of that European Youth Championship was Figo.

So Figo is not afraid even if he stands among several Italians, on the contrary he is a little arrogant.Rui rolled his eyes and said to several of his club teammates: "Don't pay attention to him, he probably has some early menopause recently."

"The captain seems to be a little constipated, and spends a long time in the bathroom every day." The young general who was brought over by Figo didn't know if he was naive or genuine.

"Puchi!" The Italians laughed at the same time, even the other Portuguese and Italian players who were eavesdropping laughed out loud.

Figo's face was flushed red, and he rubbed the little guy who was a bit taller than him even more furiously. "I call you kid talking nonsense."

"Ahhh, the captain is bullying again, ahhh..." The little guy's face was a little plateau red, and after being scratched and scratched by Figo, his face was even redder than that of Figo who was humiliated just now.

"Cough cough." Rui suppressed his laughter, coughed, and signaled Figo to let this little guy go for the time being. He thought he couldn't expose Portugal's weakness of being funny from the captain down.Alas, as a smart person, staying with these guys is really tiring. Fortunately, he has already decided to quit the national team after the European Cup, so he doesn't have to worry about these funny comparisons anymore.

Figo had regained his composure as if he had changed his face at this time, and people who didn't know would still regard him as the king of the wing, the majestic Portuguese captain, but the poor Portuguese captain had already become majestic in the mouth of his own teenager.

"Who is this little guy?" Cannavaro also leaned over to look at the little guy whose face was still red. He was thin and big, and the pair of diamond earrings were a bit too big.Well, it looks familiar, but did you put on too much hairspray?

"Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro, our little guy. Chris plays for Manchester United, take care of him in the future."

"I remembered, is Manchester United's new No. [-]? Another Ronaldo!" Gattuso finally remembered who this little guy was after Rui's introduction.

Manchester United's No. [-]?It's that Ronaldo.Several Italians looked at each other and gave each other a knowing smirk.They are very interested in someone who can be bought by Ferguson to replace Beckham, and they can play with the little guy during the game in a while.

After talking for a few words, soon some staff came over to signal that they were ready to line up.So Rui also pulled Figo, and Figo held Ronaldo in his arms to go back to his side.Figo planned to educate his young players before the game started, so as to save them from being bullied by those unscrupulous Italians after the game started.

Pirlo suddenly spoke to Rui and said one last thing: "Sui, your condition should be okay? After all, you didn't start in the previous few games."

Rui glanced at Pirlo angrily, and returned to Portugal depressed.

Several Italians laughed secretly. Pirlo is really full of bad things. He knows that Rui Deco has been replaced by Deco in the Portuguese national team.Originally, the Italian team thought that in this game, Portugal's head coach Scolari would continue to let Deco be the starting midfielder. Unexpectedly, he finally chose Rui, who is very familiar with Italy, obviously because he wanted to get acquainted with himself and the enemy.But is it so easy to know the details of the Italians?

Under the guidance of the referee, players from both sides walked out of the player channel. Because the two teams have a relationship with the host Portugal, they heard huge cheers as soon as the two teams came out.The Italians knew that the cheers were not for them, so they remained calm.On the Portuguese side, even though they have participated in several games, young players like Ronaldo are still very excited after hearing the cheers of the fans.

"That fool." Somewhere in the neutral fan stand, a young lady pressed her temple with some headaches, "That pair of earrings is about to blind people's eyes." She glanced at the scene on the big screen. Those two huge diamonds on someone's ears are very speechless. This guy's taste really hasn't changed for many years.

Because of the broadcast signal, Ronaldo's earrings appeared on TVs around the world, and audiences from all over the world heard commentaries in different languages ​​ridiculing him.

Of course, for Portuguese fans, they don't care about Ronaldo's dress or taste. They just have high hopes for their young player, hoping that he can help the team keep the European Cup champion in Portugal.

As much as the Portuguese team has been welcomed, their opponents, Italy, have been booed as much, but for these old fritters in Italy, these boos will not have much impact on them.

"In this game, coach Trapattoni used the controversial [-]-[-]-[-]-[-] formation that was used in the group stage before. Inzaghi, Vieri, Totti and Del Piero started at the same time. I don’t know if Italy’s formation can please Italy in the face of Portugal, which dominates the midfield. After all, their midfield attack has more firepower, but the intensity of defense has dropped a lot.”

The commentator's words represent the thoughts of many people. This time, the commentator of the Italian TV station was like their guest commentator Baggio asking him his opinion on this formation.

"Any formation is perfect, of course I mean as long as you use the right players, any formation is invincible." Baggio replied.

The commentator continued to ask: "If it were you, can you control this formation? Then which of the four frontcourt players would you replace?" He asked this question very cunningly, if Baggio answered no Well, it is easy to make news that Baggio is underappreciated, or that Baggio is dissatisfied with the national team or someone in the national team.

Baggio was silent for a while: "I have already retired, and this possibility no longer exists. At the same time, I think these four people are at the peak of their careers and are already irreplaceable members of the national team."

The commentator received the prompt from the broadcaster, and quickly brought the topic back to the stadium: "Okay, the game has started, let's watch the game together. Oh, at the beginning, Portugal hoarded a lot of troops in the midfield. This is a show off." Is there anyone in their midfield?" His tone was a little sour.

Italy's defenders are the most famous, and they can form several different combinations of defenders, while Italian forwards have always been heroes.With many choices at both ends, the Italian midfielder looks a bit weak in this comparison. It took so many years to have a Pirlo.And Pirlo is strong offensively and weak defensively, and needs to be matched with a Gattuso to use it reasonably.Compared with Italy, Portugal's midfielder has always been enviable. There was Rui Rui before, and now that Rui Rui is getting old, Deco has risen again.

As soon as the game started, Portugal began to dispatch in the midfield on a large scale.Portugal's midfielder headed by Ruy only needs to be active in the midfield, and then distribute the ball to the two wings, because their wings are indeed very strong.Whether it is the mature Figo or the immature Ronaldo, they all have the possibility of ruling the wing or causing trouble to the opponent on the wing.

In this game, considering Portugal's strong wing, Trapattoni simply set up a [-]-[-]-[-]-[-] formation to give way to the wing. He wanted to turn his starting lineup into a sharp The awl pierces the opponent's heart.

Because of Trapattoni's idea, Italy simply didn't continue to entangle with Portugal on the wing. Anyway, sooner or later you will go to the penalty area when you are active on the wing, and you have to hit the goal. As long as you get there, the four Italian defenders They will tell them why the flowers are so red.

Cristiano Ronaldo quickly felt the malice from Italy. He easily received the pass from the midfielder Rui Costa, and then faced Gattuso's defense on the left and stepped on his bicycle skillfully. dribble.

Gattuso felt a bit of a headache. He watched the Portuguese Ronaldo's two thin legs dangling like hemp poles, as if hallucinating, and those two legs went back and forth.He couldn't help but think of his club teammate Kaka, and felt a little bit emotional. The young people nowadays are getting stronger and stronger. This Ronaldo is younger than Kaka. Card is more like a Brazilian.

Fortunately, Gattuso had received instructions from the head coach in advance, to steal the ball if he could, and let it go if he couldn't. Anyway, there are defenders there.So he stretched out his feet directly to break the ball, but was swayed by Ronaldo on his bicycle.

Seeing the thin bamboo pole go all the way, Gattuso just hummed twice and hurried to find Pirlo's position. As someone's exclusive "bodyguard", he has been used to being too close to someone in the national team and club. Far.

In the end, Ronaldo's ball was blocked by the skilled Italian defenders this time. After the ball was stolen, Ronaldo was a little at a loss. He was used to the big feet of those rough guards in the Premier League, and he did everything well. Ready to fall into the restricted area.But what about the promised bigfoot shovel?What about the vicious robbery that was agreed?

"Let's go, let's go back, playing against the Italians is like this." Figo, who was guarding the right, ran over from his side and patted the young junior on the shoulder.In addition to the height difference, the younger generation's greasy head covered with hairspray was also the reason why he couldn't do it.

"Captain?" Ronaldo was a little dazed, but he obediently returned to his home half. After all, the Italians have already started to organize offenses. Although he doesn't like defense, he still has to contribute to the team. After all, as long as Italy wins, they Then he can enter the final, and at that time he can touch the Delaunay Cup. Ronaldo thought of the last European Cup, when Xiao Qingmei, who is a Frenchman, saw the excitement of his motherland winning the championship, he vowed to win the championship at that time, so that Qingmei was excited and cheered for himself.

Italy immediately organized an attack after stealing the ball this time. Pirlo made a long pass to find Totti. Totti broke through with the ball and then kicked the ball hard to the post.Seeing his shot, Totti covered his head in annoyance.He originally wanted to make a fool of himself first, but it turned out to be a bit bad. Do you still want to cooperate with those three guys?

This kind of thinking appeared in the hearts of the other three people in the front court at the same time. To be honest, it was a very awkward feeling for the four of them to play together. Compared with the expectations of outside fans, the four of them really didn't want to have such a situation. combination.But seeing that the finals are still one step away, they can only endure the nausea and cooperate with each other.

The frontcourt quartet had a rare connection of minds, and with the unity of thought, they soon brought goals for Italy.

It was still Pirlo who organized the offense. He crossed the midfield under the protection of Gattuso. Before the vigilant Rui came to defend, he made a fake kick, which seemed to be passed to Inzaghi who was running towards the penalty area, but It was a short pass to Del Piero, and then Piero and Totti made a two-for-one cooperation, passing the Portuguese defender Andrade and passing the ball to Vieri who had already run in place.The Italian heavy tank finally showed his side of crushing the penalty area, and the football was fired into the Portuguese goal like a cannonball with a hard kick.The kick was right, but the Portuguese goalkeeper Ricardo leaped high but could barely let his fingers touch the ball, but could not prevent the ball from entering the goal. [-]-[-] Italy lead.

The Italian fans at the scene cheered loudly, but their cheers were still worse than the boos of the huge number of Portuguese fans at the scene.While the Portuguese fans booed the Italians who were celebrating desperately, they cheered for their team desperately.

Maria was also one of the celebrating Italian fans, because considering that today was a match against the host, she handed over the child to Mia's servant, who suddenly became interested in football recently and came to watch the game.

"I feel more and more that the atmosphere in the football stadium is really good." Wearing sunglasses and a hat, Mia told Maria loudly that she had really made up her mind to buy a team.

Maria didn't pay attention to what Mia was saying, but tried to look on the field.Although it wasn't her husband who scored the goal, but her husband's friend, it was obvious that her husband was very excited, and even played head-to-head with that Vieri.Maria clenched her fist lightly, she was really not right with that Vieri.

After the Italians finished celebrating, the game started again. Amidst the cheers of the home audience, Portugal aggressively counterattacked. They knew that this local European Cup was their best chance to win the championship, and they didn't want to be blocked from the final.

Soon Portugal got a chance to equalize the score. Figo got a free kick in a good position. He personally took the penalty and the ball flew into the penalty area with a beautiful arc. Cristiano Ronaldo leaped high, flicked his head and hit the ball into the goal.

"I have to say Ronaldinho's goal is really beautiful, but our team still has a chance." The Italian commentator said lightly, although he wanted to say that the goal was beautiful, but it was scored It's their team.

Baggio also nodded: "C Ronaldo has proven his worth, he is indeed worthy of Sir Alex Ferguson bringing him to Old Trafford, worthy of Manchester United's No. [-] jersey." He looked at the field approvingly Cristiano Ronaldo, who is making a set of weird movements to celebrate his goal, has foreseen that Ronaldo will become a very eye-catching star in a few years.

"We can see the Portuguese star Ronaldinho celebrating his goal. This action looks like the white crane airing its wings in our Chinese Kung Fu." In addition to foreign commentators laughing at the Portuguese boy's weird taste, he not only mentioned In terms of dressing up, it is also reflected in the celebration actions. The Chinese commentator tried to interpret Ronaldo's celebration from another angle.

A certain lady in the stands frowned at Ronaldo's celebration. This white crane airing its wings was too substandard. I hope her grandpa didn't see it, otherwise dear Chris would be fined to squat.

Now that the two sides have returned to a starting point, the players of both sides continued to come and go, but apart from a few shots that went wide of the goal frame, neither side had any achievements in the first half.

After returning to the locker room to listen to the teaching of the head coach, the two sides returned to the court.Portugal made a substitution. They replaced a defender and replaced Deco, the main midfielder in this European Cup, intending to let Deco and Ruy play double midfielders.

Trapattoni frowned and watched as Portugal began to change their formation. They planned to strengthen their midfield. If people play normally, their Italian attack firepower is not weaker than their opponents.And will Deco and Rui, two people who have conflicting positions with each other, cooperate so harmoniously?

Trapattoni's doubts were quickly confirmed. The compatibility of Deco and Rui Rui playing at the same time is worse than that of the Italian foursome. The ball was passed by Totti, who was active in the center circle.

Figo just yelled: "Defense!" Italy's four-man frontcourt had already started. Totti took the ball and passed a long pass to Del Piero. Good Inzaghi, make a decisive move.Inzaghi flicked lightly, the Portuguese goalkeeper judged the wrong direction, and the ball bounced into the Portuguese goal again. [-]-[-] Italy once again exceeded the score.

The score fell behind, then equalized, and after the equalizer was overtaken, Portugal's morale was hit. In the following time, Portugal's two sides kept trying to find opportunities. Ronaldo even fell to the ground repeatedly. But none of this brought Portugal a goal.

With the score of [-]-[-] at the end of the game, with the cheering and hugging of the Italians on the field, it was announced that Portugal's desire to win the championship at home has been shattered.

Each of the Portuguese players either sat on the ground and buried their faces in their knees, or quickly walked off the field, hoping to find a place where there was no one to calm down.

Ronaldo stood alone on the court crying, looking like a helpless child.Soon there was an extra hand on his shoulder, which was the hand of the old captain Figo.

Figo couldn't hide his disappointment. This may be his last European Cup, but he still hasn't won the championship.But seeing the team's juniors crying bitterly, he still came to comfort his little teammates.

"Don't cry, everyone is watching you, Chris, you are the future hope of the national team, and the future depends on you..." Figo couldn't continue when he said this.Rui, who couldn't hide his loneliness and ended his last national team campaign, came over and patted Ronaldo on the shoulder, and then dragged him to the outside of the field.

Rui whispered to Ronaldo as he walked: "Chris, we big brothers can only hold your hand to get here, and you will have to go by yourself in the future!"

The author has something to say: Ronaldo nodded heavily while trying to restrain the tears that were dripping. "Ruy, I will definitely win the Delaunay Cup for Portugal." He seemed to be saying to himself, and he seemed to be swearing an oath to the seniors who bid farewell to the national team unwillingly.At this time, he didn't know that he had been working hard for this oath for 12 years, from a young boy to a mature youth and team leader.

After defeating the host country, Italy became more and more courageous and defeated the Greek team in the final, so that the Greek myths hyped by the media before the game did not appear in the European Cup.

————End of the text———

That's all for the European Cup. I won't write about the final game against Greece, because the Greek team's game was really not good.I finally finished writing the game, and I lost my half-life feeling. Tomorrow, I have to write some daily routines, such as the outdated hero who went to work as a foreign worker and joined the sunset red tour group.

Luo Er's Qingmei showed her face a little bit, and there will be a chance for her to appear in the future. I found that Qingmei is the only one among the four football articles I want to write that can appear without time and space constraints.By the way, do you still remember Ome's name?

I won’t post pictures here. You can search for photos of Luo Er crying with the keyword “C Ronaldo crying at the European Cup in [-]”. It looks sour.Then look at the photo of him crying in this year's European Cup, and the feeling will be deeper.

It's 37 degrees here in my house today, and I think I can't take it anymore. I really don't know how those friends in the [-]-octave area spend summer.

Send today's small theater:

Luo Er: Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

Qingmei: Shut up, I'll beat you up again!

Luo Er: Shouldn't you give me the comfort of love, woo woo woo...

Qingmei: Alright, I will give you the consolation of love, and give you two fists! (Background: Maria and Inzaghi pass by hand in hand)
