Football No. 10: God's Perspective - Chapter 299 Cherish
1 to 1.
This score made the Argentine team collapse. It was just a few minutes away. It was a pity.
After losing the ball, the Argentine team seized the opportunity and launched a counterattack.
Messi used his sense of rhythm and footwork to continuously change direction.
“Danger~!”
When the Portuguese commentator in front of the TV saw Messi touch the defender to form a single-handed ball, his eyes were wide open and he even forgot to breathe.
For all the fans of the Portuguese team, they were suffocating and terrified at this moment.
The game time has come to 92 minutes. If the ball is lost at this time, everything will be over.
“No way.”
Even Wang Po was obviously panicked at this moment.
“It flew away, it was a meritorious service, the goalkeeper was meritorious, at this moment he was not fighting alone, awesome…”
The goalkeeper of the Portuguese team blocked Messi’s single-handed ball with his body and rejected the Argentine attack.
“Strong.”
All the Portuguese players rushed to the goalkeeper like crazy.
The key to this ball is even greater than a goal.
Strong!
It was not the time to relax. Facing Argentina’s corner kick, all the Portuguese players except Cristiano Ronaldo returned to the penalty area.
Argentina got the ball, but it was difficult to handle. They passed it to Dybala on the periphery, who drew his bow and arrow to shoot.
The Portuguese defense was in chaos.
At the critical moment, it was still Wang Po, who almost flew out horizontally to block Dybala’s shooting angle.
It was a fake move.
After the fake shot and the real pass deceived the Portuguese team’s defensive center, Dybala easily passed the ball to Messi, who was also pulled out on the periphery, and the latter completed the dribbling shot without interference.
The ball flew quickly towards the upper left corner of the goal with a strong arc.
The crisis was not resolved, and even the threat of such a shot was stronger than that of Dybala’s previous shot.
However, the will to win and the belief in winning were there.
The goalkeeper once again played the role of a savior, leaping up and forcibly keeping the ball out of the penalty area.
Two consecutive rounds of attack made everyone sweat. It was a good thing that those who survived a disaster would have good fortunes in the future. As luck would have it, the second penalty fell at Wang Po’s feet.
The chance to kill the opponent was here.
Wang Po would not give Argentina any more chances. His eyes were sharp like a killer.
Facing Messi who flew over to defend desperately, the clever fried meatballs passed the opponent, raised his head, and Ronaldo started and passed the ball across half the court.
Accelerate, start, lead the ball, rush into the penalty area, and shoot to score.
The action was done in one go, as if a machine had made precise calculations. Every step was perfect without any mistakes.
2 to 1.
In the last decision of the injury time, the Portuguese team did it. The two top players Wang Po and Ronaldo connected to help the team come back to life and kill the Pampas Eagle.
Just one minute before the goal, they walked through the gates of hell twice in a row.
In the end, God still favored Portugal.
A lore, a lore, a real lore.
Argentina has no chance, yes, really no chance.
The players of the Portuguese team rushed towards Ronaldo frantically, and the “siu” sound in the whole stadium was like thunder, which was the voice of the king’s team.
It’s good to win, even if the process is bumpy.
Falling behind, equalizing, reversing the lore.
Without a good body, you really can’t watch this game.
Wang Po helped Ronaldo solve all the problems for the lore. All the latter had to do was to dribble into the penalty area and shoot to score. It was that simple.
“Beep~!”
When the ball was sent out from the arc of the center circle, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.
Portugal was reborn from the desperate situation and advanced to the semi-finals.
Argentina doesn’t have to be sad. They have done their best. They almost kept the biggest favorite to win the championship out of the door of the semi-finals. Unfortunately, luck made it so that they almost missed it.
However, the Pampas Eagle can leave this stadium with their heads held high.
Messi’s World Cup farewell may not be perfect, but his greatness no longer needs to be measured by a championship, and the gold content of a championship cannot prove how great he is.
You certainly don’t fall in love with a person because of his success or failure, but because of his temperament.
Anyone who dares to fight and constantly challenges is worthy of respect.
Messi is, and so is Ronaldo.
Messi bids farewell to the World Cup, let us wish him well, and at the same time congratulate Portugal and 41-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo, who can continue to pursue his dream of winning the World Cup.
But it must be said that this World Cup is the last end of the era of the two heroes, let us cherish their games.
…
Portugal successfully advanced to the semi-finals, and the players on the court celebrated selflessly and galloped.
Ronaldo took the initiative to walk up to Wang Po and gave him a big hug, “Thank you, brother, thank you for bringing me to the semi-finals, which brought me one step closer to my dream.”
“Do I need to say this? We are a team. After all, the purpose of my coming here is to win the championship.”
Two big men, under the gaze of the audience and under the lens of major media, the two big men actually whispered.
This night was wonderful.
For Portugal, the celebration is limited to this night, because they still have to prepare for the next semi-final.
The opponent in the semi-final will be another team from South America, Brazil, led by Neymar.
Although Neymar is much younger than Messi and Ronaldo at the age of 34, it is difficult for him to persist until the next World Cup in terms of his current physical condition and competitive ability.
Of course, compared with the lack of successors in the Argentine team, the replacement of the old and the new in the Brazilian team is much better, but it is a pity that compared with the star-studded Brazil in the past, the current team lineup has many role players, and the real one who can really take the lead can only rely on Neymar.
In the past, Romario, Rivaldo, Ronaldo, Kaka, Ronaldinho were all players at the level of the Golden Ball and World Footballer of the Year.
What about now? How many years has there been no World Footballer of the Year in the Brazilian team?
The football kingdom has also gotten rid of the misfortune of lack of successors.
Brazil is definitely a tough team. With Neymar and world-class role players, they are also one of the favorites to win the World Cup, and they are the third seed.
This semi-final matchup is a head-on clash.
Facing Argentina, Portugal did not show its previous strong dominance, which also makes people wonder about their performance in the semi-finals.
Facing Brazil, what is Portugal’s chance of winning?
Brazil is a team with both defense and offense, and Samba football is naturally eager for the championship, which is definitely a tough nut to crack.
