Bruno's series of wonderful and dazzling moves allowed him to stop the ball when two Belgian players were double-teaming him, and won a round of warm applause from the audience.

But Bruno also knew very well that time would not wait for him at all. He raised his head, glanced at the position of other teammates, and suddenly started to move. After passing Fellaini with a fake move, he dribbled the ball across the middle.

Belgian central defender Alderweireld was well aware of the threat of Bruno cutting in from the left and immediately stepped forward to block it.

Fellaini didn't have eyes behind him. He didn't know that Alderweireld would suddenly step forward to block the ball, and the two almost collided with each other.

But Bruno suddenly passed the ball across to the right side of the top area of ​​the penalty area. After making an emergency stop, he suddenly changed direction and inserted diagonally into the left post of the penalty area from the left side of Fellaini.

Nani already knew Bruno was calling for reinforcements when he cut inside.

Belgian goalkeeper Courtois is worthy of being one of the best goalkeepers in world football today. His reaction is extremely fast, he takes action quickly and successfully touches the ball.

"Bruno Fernandes! Hat-trick!!!"

………………

Ronaldo kicked the football to Nani, turned around and ran forward. The latter knocked the football to Sanches and he ran forward.

There was chaos in the penalty area, and the referee had to blow his whistle to signal everyone to stay calm.

The goalkeeper has the clearest vision and can best see the overall situation. Courtois can see it most clearly from the goalkeeper position. The Portuguese rushes forward with his crazy pressing in the frontcourt. If Meunier wants to continue playing with fire in the backcourt, once the ball is intercepted, he will be the goalkeeper. The unlucky one.

"This is also the third game in the quarter-finals of this European Cup that requires acceleration to determine the winner! In the previous two overtime games, Poland finally defeated Switzerland through a penalty shootout, while Iceland It was an upset victory over Croatia.”

Alderweireld chose to pass to Meunier who was on the wing.

"Spread it! Stop dawdling! Spread it!" Belgium goalkeeper Courtois shouted loudly.

All the Portuguese fans at the scene cheered again, and the referee also took advantage of the dead ball to signal that he could enter.

As soon as Nainggolan got the ball, Quaresma caught up with him. At the same time, William Carvalho also came to double-team.

"3:3, when the game was about to enter stoppage time, Bruno helped Portugal equalize the score!"

"Steady! Everyone, hold still!" Bruno slowly ran towards his penalty area and shouted loudly.

De Bruyne personally took the free kick.

Bruno immediately attached himself to De Bruyne, and no matter how the Belgian tried to get rid of him, he could not get rid of this candy.

It was also at this moment that Bruno finally stood on the sidelines.

With Kaushoy's whistle, De Bruyne quickly took a free kick. The ball drew an arc and bypassed the Portuguese wall.

The game starts again.

Seeing that it was too late to stop Bruno, Fellaini made a sliding tackle directly at Bruno. Even if it was a penalty kick or even a red card, he could no longer care.

However, Meunier obviously underestimated the difficulty of Nani, and he was entangled by Nani.

De Bruyne reluctantly passed the ball to Nainggolan.

It wasn't until this moment that Bruno clearly saw the goal!

………………

All the Portuguese fans at the scene were shouting his name crazily.

Bruno continued to stay on the sidelines to deal with it. Both of his legs were cramped and he was in great pain.

"Referee Viktor Kaushoy said he would compensate Belgium later, but now Bruno should be able to stand up first."

Fellaini reacted very quickly and quickly turned around and chased after him.

Neither Batshuayi nor Carrasco rushed into the penalty area, but waited for opportunities outside the penalty area.

Everyone knows that this is likely to be Belgium's last threatening offensive opportunity. If the penalty can be scored, Belgium will beat Portugal and advance to the quarterfinals.

It was also at this moment that the fans in the audience burst into thunderous cheers.

I don’t know if Meunier heard Courtois’s cry. Anyway, he didn’t do that. He didn’t choose to decisively clear the ball out, but moved the ball around to get rid of and pass Nani.

"The quarter-finals of this European Cup are about to usher in the third overtime game!"

At the moment when the referee Viktor Kashay blew the whistle that the goal was valid, Bruno didn't know where the strength came from, and quickly rushed out of the field, running all the way to the sidelines.

"Obviously, De Bruyne was under a lot of pressure, and in order to get around the wall, the free kick was not of high quality."

"In this case, Portugal will be able to defend Belgium's offensive this time."

"De Bruyne was still very anxious and kept urging the Portuguese team to serve quickly. Pepe deliberately asked goalkeeper Patricio to slow down a little."

"This game was so exciting! Belgium performed very well. They were very tenacious and evened the score after falling behind twice, and even overtook the score. But Bruno was equalized twice by the opponent and even overtaken. After the score, he just created a miracle!”

The assistant referee on the sidelines played five minutes of stoppage time, which was obviously meant to compensate Belgium.

In desperation, Nainggolan chose to pass the football back to Alderweireld.

With the whistle of the referee Kaushoy, the first half of overtime began.

"Bruno didn't get up from the ground for a long time. The referee Victor Kashay came to understand the situation, and the Portuguese team players also dispersed."

………………

At this time, there were four defenders inside and outside the Belgian penalty area. Among them, Vermaelen was pulled to the right side of the penalty spot by Ronaldo. Bruno faced three of them alone and would only be surrounded. So after seeing Bruno cutting inside, he Rush over quickly.

The schedule of the European Cup is very intensive, so neither Belgium nor Portugal actually want to play overtime. It would be extremely difficult for the players on both sides, and it would also be very detrimental to the team in the following games.

"The referee blew the whistle to end the second half and the game will enter overtime!"

"The Belgian players came to protest and thought Bruno was deliberately stalling for time."

One of the tactics developed by Santos for the Portuguese team is for the Portuguese team to take advantage of the kick-off opportunity to put strong pressure on Belgium's half.

No one knows whether Belgium will send the ball directly into the penalty area to grab points, or pass it to the front of the penalty area, and players like Batshuayi, Vermaelen and Fellaini will complete the header, but the only certainty is that What is clear is that Belgium has taken the risk.

………………

………………

But Bruno was obviously one step faster than him. He didn't stop when the ball came, he just picked up his left foot and hit it!

This shot came quickly and suddenly, the ball was very fast, and the angle was very tricky. It directly hit the right post and side netting of the goal.

Belgium tried very hard to break into the Portuguese team's penalty area, but they never had a chance.

Santos stood up on the sidelines. He stared at the court with anticipation in his eyes. He focused on studying several Belgian players, including Meunier. This Belgian right back who was born as a winger likes to carry the ball forward and attack. The technique on his feet is also good. Although he is a right-footed player, his skills with his left foot are not bad. Although speed is not his strong point, his delicate footwork is a huge advantage.

"Now there is less than a minute left and the Belgian players are a little frustrated."

"Portugal serves..."

As soon as Alderweireld got the ball, Ronaldo pressed forward.

"De Bruyne quickly took a free kick... around the wall... but the free kick was a little too high and went directly out of the baseline!"

"Bruno has done everything he can do as a player, he has done it to the extreme, and the rest should be taken over by his teammates in the Portuguese team."

………………

The Portuguese team began to retreat across the board, and all eleven players on the field, including the goalkeeper, retreated to their own half.

As soon as the ball arrived, Nani immediately passed the ball diagonally to the left side of the goal from the gap between Alderweireld and Vermaelen.

De Bruyne rushed as soon as he got the ball, which gave him a chance to take a free kick on the left in the 93rd minute. This was also a very threatening set kick.

Even goalkeeper Courtois has rushed into the Portuguese team's penalty area to participate in the free kick attack, which shows how firm the determination of Belgium is and how strong their desire to win is.

"The Portuguese team doctor also rushed up, and everyone was very nervous."

"We saw that Bruno had cramps. This is absolutely unprecedented. This is the first time that Bruno suffered cramps. But you can also imagine his efforts and desire to win in this game."

As soon as Meunier got the ball, he saw Nani rushing in front of him. He chose to dunk the football, trying to dunk Nani, and then calmly moved forward.

However, Portugal's attack failed because Sanches lost the ball in the next attack, and the Portuguese team had to switch from offense to defense.

"I don't know if Bruno can continue to persevere, but no matter what, the game is about to end. We hope that the Portuguese players can withstand the pressure and hold on to the final score. Only in this way will we not let Bruno down in this game. effort."

"The Belgian players protested to the referee, who gave Portugal goalkeeper Patricio a yellow card."

However, Bruno's sudden shot was fast and heavy. Courtois's hand failed to block the ball. Instead, it changed direction and crashed directly into the goal behind him.

But precisely because he is very confident in his small skills, Meunier is sometimes a bit sticky.

And Nani is the good medicine that Santos prescribes to Meunier when he may be suffering from this condition.
