From the man behind the football king to the football king

Chapter 43 Three consecutive wins to advance

The game continues.

The players of Portugal, the biggest competitor in the group with a three-goal lead, were very excited and got into high spirits. At one point, they even formed a siege on the South Korean team's goal.

"This can't continue like this." The assistant coach of the Korean team said worriedly.

"Shut up! I know." Li Guangzongda said angrily, "Let me calm down, I'm thinking of a solution."

Li Guangzong was pacing the sidelines, restless. Subconsciously focusing on the bench, are you going to make a substitution now? Use substitutions to try to change the situation on the field?

He immediately rejected the idea. The game had only started for ten minutes. What a change!

The most important thing is that the current passive situation cannot be solved by substitution.

However, almost subconsciously, Li Guangzong walked to the bench, as if it could bring him warmth and comfort.

"Looking at the situation, we might get poked in a few more holes."

"Yeah, yeah, that's not good."

Two players on the bench muttered.

"What are you two bastards talking about?" Li Guangzong roared upon hearing this.

The two of them looked up and saw the angry red eyes of the head coach. They were so frightened that they quickly lowered their heads and shut up.

At this moment, the entire stadium burst into loud cheers.

Li Guangzong's heart skipped a beat, and when he turned his head, he saw the Portuguese No. 10 jumping and running, grinning to the sky, and finally made a gliding celebration gesture...

"Let me tell you, I got stabbed in the hole again!" A voice muttered in a low voice, and then he saw the head coach's cannibalistic eyes and trembled in fear.

………………

This is Bruno getting the ball on the right side of the frontcourt, dunking past the Korean team's midfielder beautifully, and then cutting inside laterally.

Just when other defensive players on the other side were guarding against his continued breakthrough or pass, Bruno adjusted his steps and suddenly fired a cold shot.

This was a powerful and heavy kick that hit the ground. The football skimmed along the turf. Such a shot was very concealed and caused trouble for the goalkeeper. Lee Chang-geun, the goalkeeper of the South Korean team, noticed this shot and fell to the ground in a hurry. When I went to save the ball, the football had already rolled into the net.

4:0!

Twenty-one minutes into the game, Bruno scored twice, helping Portugal rewrite the score to 4:0.

The area where the Portuguese fans were in the stands cheered loudly. No one expected that Portugal would lead the South Korean team by four goals in just over 20 minutes!

"Wonderful goal! Excellent Bruno! This is a score and process that no one could have imagined." The Portuguese commentator sighed, "Two goals, two assists, this is the strength of Bruno Fernandez, look at his face With such a smile, he is like a fish in water in the Portuguese national team!”

………………

I have to say that the Korean team’s tenacity is really strong. Even though they faced a desperate situation of falling behind by four goals in the first 20 minutes, they still did not collapse, and even pulled one back at the end of the first half, rewriting the score to 4:1.

Of course, this is also the reason why Portugal did not continue to chase after taking a four-goal lead.

The advantage of four goals was too great, and after twenty minutes of fierce attack, the young people in Portugal were also a little tired and needed to slow down.

Even if Bruno still wants to chase Shengyong into the enemy, his teammates have no intention of doing so anymore.

With the Portuguese players very relaxed, the Koreans gradually recovered and scored a goal just as injury time was about to enter in the first half.

Although they were pulled back, this did not affect the good mood of the young people in Portugal at all. The home team's dressing room at Al-Qadir Stadium was filled with laughter at halftime.

The score of 4:1 made the whole team feel happy.

Bruno, who performed well in the first half of the game, also won more trust and respect from his teammates.

………………

Before the start of the second half, Ramos replaced Bruno with Agostino Cha, a product of La Masia's youth training.

With the overall situation in the group stage basically determined, Ramos hopes to let Bruno get as much rest as possible.

Although Bruno's physical fitness is very good, he has just completed a full season after all. In addition, the World Youth Championship has a relatively intensive schedule, and he is worried that Bruno's physical fitness will encounter a crisis.

Moreover, Ramos also knows that Koreans play football very dirty. Bruno shot two shots and passed two today, almost defeating the Korean team by himself. He was worried that the Korean team would become angry and attack Bruno in the second half.

If Bruno is really injured in the second half, the loss will be really too great.

Having witnessed with his own eyes a series of humiliating incidents in football 11 years ago, Ramos was not afraid to prepare the worst for the Koreans.

Facts have proved that Ramos's substitution was timely.

After Bruno left the field, the South Korean team, which had regained its composure, began to show the strength that their Asian champions should have. Moreover, they performed very tough on the field and made very large movements. This made the scene very hot, and both sides could be called The killing made people fall on their backs.

Under such circumstances, the South Korean team began to gradually seize the initiative in the game, and in the 76th minute of the game, their high center Jin Hyun scored a goal in front of the goal to tie the score. Tied 2:4.

………………

After pulling back a goal, the South Korean team saw the hope of equalizing or even coming back. Their morale was greatly boosted. During the last period of the game, they once formed a siege on Portugal's goal.

However, the three defensive midfielders composed of Joao Mario, Andre Gomez and Agostino Cha tried their best and finally stubbornly contained the Korean team's offensive.

Among them, Agostino Cha came to the rescue on the goal line during the injury time of the game, blocking the opponent's close shot.

Ramos had been standing on the sidelines directing the game at the last moment. Every offensive attack by the Korean team made him tremble. This time Agostino Cha's rescue in front of the goal made Ramos' heart beat faster.

Finally, the referee blew the whistle to end the game, which also saved Ramos' heart. He raised his arms high to welcome the victory.

4:2!

With Bruno's outstanding performance of two shots and two passes in the first half of the game, Portugal defeated the powerful South Korean team with a score of 4:2 in the second round of Group B and won a very valuable victory.

The Portuguese team, which has won two consecutive games, not only advanced to the knockout rounds one round ahead of schedule, but also basically secured first place in the group.

According to the qualifying rules of this World Youth Championship, the top two teams in each group, plus the third-placed teams in the four groups with better results, a total of 16 teams will advance to the knockout rounds.

Portugal, which has won two consecutive games, will definitely rank among the top two in Group B, so they have already advanced.

The South Korean team has temporarily fallen to third place in Group B. In the last round, they have to face off against Nigeria to compete for qualification.

………………

Three days later, the two final rounds of Group B started with the whistle blowing at the same time.

In the direct dialogue between the South Korean team and Nigeria, the two teams ended up tied 1:1, with each scoring 1 point, and both successfully advanced to the knockout round with 4 points.

In the match against the weak team Cuba, Ramos directly hid Bruno. But Portugal still bloodbathed its opponent with a score of 5:0.

In this game, Portugal's talented winger Bruma scored twice again, scoring 5 goals in 3 games, leading the scorer list.

In addition, Aladeji also scored 1 goal and ranked second in the scorer list with 3 goals.

The last goal was scored by Ricardo Pereira.

On the afternoon of June 29, the games of the last two groups also ended, and all 16 teams that advanced to the knockout rounds were born, including Spain, Portugal, Colombia, Paraguay, Iraq and Croatia, which ranked first in the 6 groups, and second in the 6 groups. France, Nigeria, Turkey, Greece, Chile, Uruguay, and the four better-performing third-placed groups, Ghana, South Korea, Mexico and Uzbekistan. El Salvador, third in Group C, Egypt, third in Group E, and the six bottom teams of the group, the United States, Cuba, Australia, Mali, England and New Zealand, were eliminated.

The Commonwealth team is extremely miserable!

In the subsequent quarter-finals draw, Portugal drew Ghana, which was third in Group A.

This result made the Portuguese very happy, but Bruno felt that they might have been happy too early. The Young Black Stars were able to sweep the United States 4:1 in the group of death and qualify. They are not an easy opponent to deal with.
