Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

Ground Football: Cristiano Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him. Chapter 745: The Little Flying Stick is Here! One is the best lineup before the generational change, and the other is the optimal solution after the rebuild.

Who will come out on top?

On June 24th, at the Estádio da Luz in Lisbon, a fierce battle is about to begin!

Both Deng Kai and Cristiano Ronaldo felt a bit like they were in a dream at the Estádio da Luz.

They came here for the first time and crushed Benfica's youth team.

Veloso was so badly beaten that he was abandoned by the team.

On his second visit here, he crushed Benfica's first team, giving the then-dominant Gomez a hard time.

Today, Gomez's status in the Portuguese team is not what it used to be, and he sits on the bench with Pauleta.

People had hoped that Gomez could carry the torch after Portugal's golden generation.

After all, Gomez is much younger than the Golden Generation, but much older than Ronaldo and Duncan.

As it turned out... these young people grew up so fast that they directly surpassed Gomez and took over.

Gomez's position thus became awkward.

Looking at the Portuguese fans who made up more than half of the crowd at the Estádio da Luz, Deng Kai and others waved to them.

With the referee's whistle, the match officially began.

The Dutch team quickly demonstrated their targeted approach.

In the fifth minute, Davis fouled Deco after Deco received the ball.

In the ninth minute, Viana was knocked down by Seedorf as he received the ball.

Although the referee called fouls, he did not make any further comments.

The scale of this match is clearly not going to be small.

That's what makes it intense.

After all, the Netherlands is known for its total football style.

Deng Kai's team has always been known for its offensive prowess.

In the 14th minute, Davis and Seedorf double-teamed Deco.

Deco's forced pass was intercepted by Cocu.

The Netherlands' midfield maelstrom effectively shut down Portugal's organization.

Portugal's situation became passive.

We had no choice but to begin retreating.

In the 18th minute, Seedorf's long-range shot hit the crossbar, giving the Portuguese a fright.

Twenty-sixth minute.

Young Robben is also beginning to shine.

After receiving a pass from Davis on the left wing, he immediately exploited the space behind Maniche and made his way down the wing.

Pepe went to cover, Robben made a cross, and Davies unleashed a powerful shot from the left side of the penalty area, but the ball hit the post.

Davis was quite disappointed.

This is a golden opportunity.

"Wow! The quality of the Dutch midfielders' long-range shots is too high! Both Davids and Seedorf have a super long-range shot."

"The Portuguese team can't get through without camping in the trenches, but even that can't stop such long-range shots."

"The key is that the Dutch team also has a sharp weapon like Robben."

"Many people probably didn't expect Portugal to be dominated by the Netherlands."

Thirty-third minute.

Robben continued his breakthroughs on the left flank.

Maniche wasn't out of position this time, but he simply couldn't defend, and in the end he had to foul, giving the Netherlands a free kick in a good position.

Van der Meyde and Seedorf stand in front of the ball, ready to either shoot directly at the goal or take a tactical free kick.

Finally, Seedorf unleashed a powerful shot that went directly into the goal.

The Dutch had clearly rehearsed this.

They broke down the Portuguese team's wall from the inside.

Although Seedorf's long-range shot was not high enough to bypass the wall of men, it went straight through it.

boom!

The football bounced high and flew over the goal.

There was a gasp of surprise from the crowd.

Gillop fell inside the penalty area, his face covered in blood.

He blocked Seedorf's powerful shot with his face.

The team doctor entered the field immediately.

Too dangerous!

Seedorf's heavy artillery was very powerful.

It belongs to the category of cruise missiles.

The only slightly reassuring thing was that Kirkup made painful movements after falling to the ground, rather than losing consciousness immediately.

The latter is more dangerous.

The team doctor quickly shook his head.

Kirop was unable to continue the game.

Even if there are more matches later, it's uncertain whether Kilop will be able to play.

We also need to consider the risk of concussion.

On the sidelines, Fonte, who hadn't been on the field for a long time except for interviews, was warming up.

Triguera still chose to believe in the five-time champion.

After all, Fonte had been one of his soldiers, and he knew the boy.

He even used Fonte as a center forward to score the winning goal against his opponent!

To this, Font could only shake his head slightly: "Sir Font, you don't know that people change. I mainly work on cases now."

Triglar: You've switched careers to become a detective?

Fonte: Chef. Specializes in both hot and cold dishes.

Of course, letting Fonte go wasn't entirely out of personal feelings.

The main problem is that the Portuguese team needs a tall defender.

Both Fonte and Kirop are 1.91 meters tall, giving them an advantage in air defense.

Fonte made his mark in the 37th minute.

Davies and Robben played a one-two on the left wing, and Robben crossed from the byline.

Fonte cleared the ball first.

However, Fonte was greedy; he didn't want to give the Netherlands a corner kick, so he desperately tried to head the ball back.

The end result was that Robben caught the ball again just before the byline.

Robben swept the ball across the goal.

Van Nistelrooy poked the ball through the crowd, sending it flying into the goal.

"Goal! Van Nistelrooy! This is the ability of another great Dutch striker! This is the new Van Basten of the Netherlands!"

"One-nil! The Netherlands are in the lead!"

"Robben's breakthrough was incredibly sharp! He delivered a classic assist."

"Of course, the Dutch team also has to thank Fonte for orchestrating the attack."

Fonte: Damn it! You were all so awesome when I cleared the ball, but now that someone else has scored, you're calling me an idiot? You piece of trash!

Of course, Fonte did make a mistake in this defensive play.

The cross pass went right through him, and he couldn't stop it.

This is Fonte's weakness.

The reaction time was not fast enough.

Their ability to steal and intercept is poor.

Therefore, it is difficult for him to become a top center-back.

Gillopp's fundamentals are very strong, making him difficult to penetrate, and the ball rarely gets past his defensive zone.

Thirty-nine minutes.

Portugal seized the opportunity and launched an offensive.

Deco connects with Deng Kai via a through ball.

After receiving the ball, Deng Kai made a quick run past Heitinga and crossed the ball from the byline.

Unfortunately, the 1.91-meter-tall Stam outjumped the 1.85-meter-tall Ronaldo and successfully cleared the ball.

At the center forward position, Cristiano Ronaldo does not yet have absolute dominance.

He expects to gradually add strength training this summer and next season to complete his evolution.

But Figo on the other side picked up the ball and crossed it from the wing once again.

However, Van Bronckhorst reacted quickly and stretched out his foot to block the ball out of bounds.

Portugal has been awarded a corner kick.

Viana takes a corner kick.

Stam cleared the ball again, heading it away.

After receiving the ball, Robben turned around and kicked it ten meters away. Then he raced against Deco who was rushing towards him and visibly left Deco behind.

Here comes the little flying stick!

Costinha retreated while trying to find Carrotben's passing position.

But he soon realized something was wrong.

Robben didn't seem to be planning to pass the ball.

boom!

When Costinha reacted and lunged at Robben, Robben kicked the ball ten meters away again, then accelerated a second time, leaving Costinha behind.

I like playing football on the ground: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him.
