Football No. 10: God's Perspective - Chapter 300 Samba Ends
Brazil, a country born for football, a traditional football powerhouse.
The innocence of Samba football represents the purest football.
Unfortunately, affected by the impact of European industrialized football, Samba football is gradually fading. In Brazil, in recent years, the reform of tactics and training system has begun, and the distinctive characteristics of players are gradually eroding with Europeanization.
The creativity of football has gradually shifted from players to tactics.
Players are not like participants, but more like components. In the future, football will no longer be a hundred flowers blooming, but all the same way. Playing the game in a rigid manner is a pity.
Portugal is ready for the semi-final against Brazil.
Time is tight and the task is heavy.
The training these days has always been based on recovery. Against Brazil, Portugal is still based on me, after all, they have a luxurious offensive line.
On the match day, the fans of Portugal and Brazil are very strong. The two sides come and go, and they have already started competing outside the stadium. Basically, the fans on the scene are 55-50.
Six-star Brazil, the Brazilian team has been working hard and pursuing.
Entering the semi-finals, Neymar and his teammates did not give up.
“Beep”
A whistle sounded and the game began.
The Brazilian team had no reservations. Parking the bus, human sea tactics, and defensive retreat would never appear in Samba football.
Therefore, from the first minute of the game, the Brazilians showed their football talents without reservation, with smooth cooperation, efficiency and good viewing, and also created several threatening attacks.
It’s a pity that the current Brazilian No. 9 Jesus is not a little bit worse than Ronaldo, Adriano and others in the past. The steady shooting can only give the team a few offensive data at most, and it is still far from prying open the goal of the Portuguese team.
The two sides opened the offensive posture. The duel between the Portuguese-speaking teams is definitely the best game since the knockout stage of this World Cup.
Although Neymar’s explosive power and speed are not as good as his peak, his ability to get rid of in a small range and his ability to read the game are more mature, and he can be said to be the last representative of Samba football.
After Neymar pulled to the side, he pedaled bicycle continuously, then suddenly accelerated to the bottom and crossed the ball with a cross kick. The use of technology and imagination was amazing.
Jesus, the center forward who rushed to the middle, headed for the goal, but unfortunately, the ball was too straight and not strong enough, and was confiscated by the goalkeeper of the Portuguese team.
From defense to offense, the Portuguese team threw the ball to Ronaldo in the frontcourt with a strong hand. The latter turned around with the ball and encountered the blockade of Militao, the central defender of the Brazilian team. In the case of a stuck position, Ronaldo chose to pass the ball horizontally to Wang Pochi who was inserted in the back row, and accelerated the ball.
For Wang Po’s defense, the Brazilian team made targeted deployments before the game. At the beginning of the game, Wang Po had already experienced this. The number of people, the defense, and they did not hesitate to use big fouls to interfere.
When launching a counterattack, the Brazilian team would hold Wang Po down at the first time, and this time was no exception.
However, after learning from the previous lessons, Wang Po also kept a careful mind. After getting the ball, Brazilian players rushed towards him from three directions.
At the moment when the opponent’s defensive player was about to kick, Wang Po passed the ball to Felix who started from the wing.
The two’s passing and cutting cooperation was quite perfect, and an offside gave Felix a chance to score alone.
Accelerate, enter the penalty area, and push the ball into the far corner to score.
1-0.
Compared with the stalemate with Argentina in the last game, Portugal took the lead in the score in the 31st minute of the game.
With the lead in the score, Portugal took the initiative on the field. Head coach Santos began to require three lines to recover and fight against Brazil’s counterattack according to the plan made before the game.
In the last stage of the first half, Brazil was basically the main attack. Unfortunately, under the tight defense system, the Brazilians returned without success.
At the beginning of the second half, the Brazilians strengthened their offense, and such a large-scale attack finally paid off in the 70 minutes on the ground.
Center forward No. 9 Jesus, with his back against the central defender, took the ball with difficulty and passed it back to Neymar outside the penalty area. The latter made a perfect arc shot and the ball went into the net in the dead corner.
1 to 1.
Brazil equalized the score.
The game became stalemate again.
Although Santos’s defensive counterattack tactics were successful, before Neymar scored, Portugal had several counterattacks and threats to the Brazilian goal, but unfortunately, the luck was a little bit worse.
As a result, the score was equalized.
The two sides returned to the same starting line again.
Brazil’s front line also began to recover, and Portugal became cautious after being equalized from the lead. There was little time left, and it took courage and courage to make changes.
Santos was particularly entangled at this time, and he was a little undecided for a while.
However, soon, Wang Po stood up to help him make a decision.
Just 5 minutes after the score was tied, Wang Po made a wonderful two-on-one wall cooperation with Ronaldo at the front of the Brazilian team’s penalty area, broke into the penalty area, faced Ronaldo’s pass, swung his calf, and made a hidden shooting action, so that Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson did not make any save reaction.
The ball was fast enough and the angle was tricky enough. Even if he had noticed it in advance, this ball could not be saved by a god.
2 to 1.
Portugal once again became the leading side.
The Brazilian team is in danger. If they lose the ball during this period, they will be further and further away from the sixth planet in front of their chests.
The first to bear the brunt is their core Neymar, who is in disarray. Even though he is no longer young, Neymar’s old problem of being impatient has not changed. This emotion is like a plague, spreading to every Brazilian player.
Several attacks seemed very impatient and rough, wasting time in vain.
“Beep”
When the final whistle blew, Neymar couldn’t suppress his emotions and his eyes were red.
Yes, as Samba football gradually declined, as a representative of the last generation of Samba football, Neymar carries the expectations of too many people in a country that makes a living from football. This is honor and pressure.
For so many years, the national team he led has repeatedly impacted the sixth World Cup championship, and has repeatedly failed. Now he is no longer young and has no chance to lead the team of his motherland to charge.
Like Messi and Ronaldo, this is his last World Cup.
Looking back, there are only a few honors to show for the team, such as an Olympic gold medal and an America’s Cup championship.
After all, this is the Brazilian team, a country that once produced many talented people and talented people.
Neymar covered his face and cried. Although the overall strength was weaker than Portugal, the loss was reasonable, but he still could not accept this result.
