The moment Bruno sent the ball into the Albanian goal, the entire Stadium of Light erupted. The 60,000 home fans roared with thunderous cheers, making the huge Stadium of Light feel like an earthquake had occurred.

In this game, Ronaldo was absent due to injury, and the biggest expectation of Portuguese fans is Bruno's performance.

In the first half, Bruno's performance was average due to lack of tacit understanding with his teammates, but in the second half, Bruno directly took control of the game. When Portugal conceded a goal first, he participated in all three of Portugal's goals with one shot, one pass and one instigation. This performance was perfect.

The Portuguese fans, who were greatly satisfied, naturally used their greatest enthusiasm to celebrate Bruno's first goal in the national team.

The audience in front of the TV also discovered that at this moment the live director cut the camera to the stands, where fans held up signs that said "Bruno, happy birthday to you!"

Then, the camera zoomed in further, and it was discovered that the person holding the sign was a young girl.

At that time, Bruno didn't know how to deal with his relationship with his girlfriend. In addition, Anna was studying at a top prestigious school in Portugal. After a little hesitation, he asked the other party to give up this idea.

The new season has just begun, and Udinese is about to face a devilish schedule!

………………

Juventus leads 1:0!

After all, he achieved a big victory in his first game as the head coach of the Portuguese national team, which is a happy thing.

Seeing Udinese becoming more and more passive on the court, Guidolin began to make substitution adjustments. Veteran Pingqi replaced Guillerme, Taylor replaced captain Di Natale, and the captain's armband was handed to Bruno.

The University of Lisbon is also a famous university in Portugal, and its status in Portugal is similar to that of Qingbei in China.

Juventus also attaches great importance to Udinese, and Conte only made three adjustments to the lineup in the first round. Pereira replaced the injured Vidal and played against his old club. Evra replaced Asamoah in his Serie A debut, and Llorente replaced Koeman after recovering from illness. He scored in both games with Udinese last season.

But no matter what, Bruno is really popular in Portugal.

Juventus was not eager to expand the result after taking the lead, which made Udinese's counterattack after losing the ball ineffective.

At the critical moment, Udinese's Greek goalkeeper Kanizis saved Udinese's goal. He used a world-class save to deny Morata's shot.

In the 2nd minute of stoppage time, Koeman passed a cross, Marchisio passed through, and Morata turned around 12 meters in front of the goal and shot with his left foot.

Even the extra meal after the game became a birthday party hosted by his teammates.

With Udinese's next attack, Tello kicked Bruno's pass into the stands, and the referee also blew the whistle for the end of the game.

And Anna doesn't know that Bruno already has a new girlfriend. However, due to some reasons, the news was not made known to the outside world.

The game immediately entered a tug-of-war.

Although Udinese's historical record is at an absolute disadvantage when visiting Juventus, they were the only Serie A team to win at the Allianz Stadium in Turin last season, and the other 18 teams lost here. .

Juventus was once close to victory.

After attending the post-match press conference and returning to the hotel, Bruno unexpectedly received a gift. It was a birthday cake given to him by a Portuguese Football Association official on behalf of the Portuguese Football Association.

………………

Juventus complained that Udinese defender Bubonjic was offside and interfered with Buffon, but the referee ignored it.

Bruno did not return to his home in Porto. He was already an adult at the age of 20.

Obviously, Guidolin does not want to give up without a fight in direct dialogue with Juventus.

Bruno once again received enthusiastic praise from media reporters from all over the world, but Santos, the head coach, and Nani were somewhat left out by the reporters.

As a result, Portugal was able to rely on its goal difference advantage to overtake Denmark and rank first in the group. Denmark ranks second, Serbia, which has a bye in this round, ranks third, Armenia ranks fourth, and Albania ranks fifth, which are quite consistent with each other's world rankings.

At the moment when his teammates were smeared with cream, time also entered September 8, local time in Portugal, and Bruno officially ushered in his 20th year.

………………

Juventus, who was lagging behind, made a crazy counterattack, and Udinese took the opportunity to beat Juventus' counterattack. Both sides had some chances, but were unable to score.

Portugal has only one game on this international match day, so after the game, the national team will naturally be temporarily disbanded.

………………

In the first half, neither side scored again.

Udinese equalized just three minutes into the second half. Guilherme passed the ball, Di Natale headed the ball over, and Bruno followed up and shot in front of the small penalty area line past Marchisio's interception and into the Juventus goal.

In this regard, Santos's mood was not affected in any way, and he was smiling throughout the process.

But things are different now. As a core player, he led Portugal to a victory in a European Cup qualifying match, and it was a good start. He himself also produced dazzling personal data and was a major contributor to Portugal's victory.

1:1!

Throughout Portugal, people everywhere are discussing how far Portugal can go in Brazil if Paulo Bento does not insist on excluding Bruno from the Brazil World Cup squad.

………………

If Bruno discovers this brand, he will find that the girl is his girlfriend Anna. As a top academic, she was admitted to the University of Lisbon in Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, and is currently in her third year.

After arriving at Milan International Airport, Bruno was quickly picked up by Vanessa at the airport in a low-key manner.

However, Bruno did not stay in Milan longer. After a wonderful night, Bruno boarded the fast train from Milan to Udine the next morning.

However, Bruno, who was being worshiped by 60,000 fans at the moment, did not know that there was such a girl in a corner of the stands, sending him birthday wishes.

Because Ludogorets, their opponent in the first round of the Champions League group stage, will be at home in three days, Guidolin made some rotations in Udinese's starting lineup, but the two core players Bruno and Dina Talai still started the game.

Previously, although he helped Portugal win the World Youth Championship and Toulon Cup, those two events were only youth events and received relatively low attention.

On September 8, the whole of Portugal was filled with reports about Bruno’s outstanding performance in his first start with the national team.

In the final stage of the game, the game has turned into a siege by Juventus on Udinese's goal. Conte also continuously deployed his troops, bringing on Padoin and Morata to strengthen the attack, hoping to win three games at home. point.

This was one of the reasons why Anna called him and said she planned to drop out of school and go to Italy to find him, but Bruno rejected her.

However, Udinese still failed to hold on to their advantage in the face of Juventus' full onslaught.

Some people think that if Bruno can get the starting position, Portugal can at least advance to the knockout rounds. Some fans even think that Portugal can break into the semi-finals like the World Cup in Germany eight years ago.

The score on the field became 1:2, as per international practice, the home team came first.

In the 66th minute, Udinese took the lead through a corner kick attack. Bruno's ground ball passed into the penalty area and found Danilo near the penalty spot. The Brazilian central defender took a shot and the ball went into the net.

After the game, Santos attended the post-match press conference with Nani, Portugal's captain on the field, and Bruno, who performed best in the game.

Juventus equalized the score in the 75th minute. Tevez responded with Marchisio's instep volley into the upper right corner from 18 meters in front of the goal.

And in this devilish schedule, the first game is against Serie A hegemon Juventus.

In another match of this group that ended earlier, Denmark defeated Armenia 2:1 at home.

Immediately afterwards, Juventus's corner kick was confiscated by Kanizis.

At 8:45 pm on September 13, local time in Italy, in the second round of Serie A, Udinese visited the Allianz Stadium in Turin.

While the whole of Portugal was discussing Bruno, he himself had already boarded a plane from Lisbon to Milan.

Nani was also in a good mood, because he also contributed a shot and a pass in the game, and his goal was assisted by Bruno, who also passed the ball to him.

Take the month between two international match days as an example. Udinese has 5 Serie A games and 2 Champions League group stage games to play. There are two matches a week, and every match is very important.

Although these two adjustments are both matchup substitutions, they are also strengthening the defensive strength to a certain extent.

As for his performance in Italy, apart from professionals, very few people really paid attention.

Because of the Champions League, Udinese's schedule in the new season has become very intensive.

However, no one has publicly stated that if Bruno participates in the World Cup in Brazil, Portugal will eventually win the cup.

Juventus got off to a fantastic start, breaking through Udinese in just 8 minutes. Lichtsteiner passed the ball back from the right, and Tevez pushed it into the far corner from 11 meters in front of the goal. This was the Argentine Beast's 20th goal in 36 Serie A games.

The final score of this game was 3:1, with Portugal beating Albania at home.

2:2, Udinese drew with Juventus at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.

As AC Milan and Roma won this round, Inter Milan swept Sassuolo 7-0 at home, Udinese's ranking fell to fourth, and Juventus was only ranked sixth.
