Iron Man on the pitch

Bosnia and Herzegovina is effective at the forward line of the Bundesliga Wolfsburg big center Dzeko, and midfielder is effective at the Ligue 1 Lyon Pjanic. These two players will enter giant clubs in the future, Manchester City in the Premier League and Serie A. Juventus can pose a certain threat to the Portuguese team.

In addition, most of the players of Bosnia and Herzegovina play football in the middle and lower reaches of the Bundesliga, and some players play football in the Premier League, La Liga mid and lower reaches of the teams or other top leagues in the country. In short, the strength of Bosnia and Herzegovina can still pose a certain threat to Portugal.

On the Portuguese side, although the players' star taste is not a little better than Bosnia and Herzegovina, the heavy and numerous club games have also caused considerable consumption to the players.

Since being tackled in the Champions League group stage against Marseille, Ronaldo has suffered from injuries and has a slightly sluggish performance. He has to rest for a game from time to time. Fortunately, because of Li Ling's existence, he did not have a complete injury in the game against Hungary like Li Ling did in his previous life. So in this game against Bosnia and Herzegovina, he appeared on the team's bench instead of the stands, preparing to wait for the situation to be unfavorable, so he appeared in the second half.

Portugal's midfielder Deco was in trouble, and his Chelsea career was not going well. On the one hand, it was troubled by minor injuries, on the other hand, Chelsea's midfield staffing was really luxurious, and Deco's own technical style was not very compatible with the Premier League at that time. So he failed to secure the starting position and did not get much playing time.

In this regard, Portugal's head coach Queros was helpless and had to reuse the hateful, naturalized Oriental boy. Queros understood that the more he used Li Ling to play a wonderful game, the closer he would be to the end of get out of class.

Because there is a significant gap in performance between Li Ling, Queiros's subordinates and Li Ling of Sporting Lisbon: In the Portuguese national team, Li Ling is more regarded as half a center to serve as the fulcrum of the current field; but in Sporting Lisbon, Li Ling showed the style of a midfield master and also showed terrifying attack power.

Although Portugal has been winning streak since Queros used Li Ling, there has been no less criticism from the outside world against itself. Including but not limited to lack of reasonable tactics, the pit dug in the early stage was too big to play in the playoffs, the use of Li Ling was unreasonable, and the burden on Ronaldo was too heavy, etc. Queros was also undisturbed.

"Forget it, there are only two games, just endure it and you'll be over." After learning that the Portuguese Football Association seemed to have found a successor, and it was Sporting Lisbon's head coach Paul Bento, Queros retreated, I want, but the last two games cannot be bad, because it is related to my next contract and I must win, "Hmph, just support Li Ling as the core. Then I will see how you talk to C Ronaldo and Deco coexist, and all three of them have to dominate the ball."

Queros decided to secretly make a bad thing before leaving.

So in this game against Bosnia and Herzegovina, Queros unexpectedly made a 4-5-1 formation, Li Ling was placed in the front midfielder, Deco and Raul Mereles partnered in the midfield, and Simon They are on both sides and Nani, and the single striker uses Ledesson from Sporting Lisbon.

Li Ling, who returned to his familiar position, indeed showed his strong strength in the club competition. As for the cooperation issue, Deco and Simao are both experienced and skilled players. The improvement of their strength and talent can make up for the lack of tacit understanding to a certain extent.

Under the leadership of Li Ling, the Portuguese team firmly grasped the initiative on the field. In the 23rd minute of the game, Li Ling and Deco made a two-pass and one-time cooperation, and came to the top of the penalty area. The Bosnia and Herzegovina defender did not have any He stepped forward in time to block the ball, and Li Ling shot angrily, opening the first record.

In the 50th minute of the game, Li Ling, Deke and Ximang completed a small-scale exquisite pass. Ximang easily crossed the foot without anyone guarding the wing, and led the front to break into the penalty area. After attracting two central defenders from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Ling jumped high and headed the ball to pass the ball to the unmarked Ledesson, who easily pushed the ball to the goal.

In the 83rd minute of the game, Li Ling received a pass from Raul Merreles, turned around gracefully, stopped and then made a straight pass to Nani who was inserted up and down at the wing at high speed. Nani passed the ball in a low pass. In the middle, Ximang, located at the back point, shot the football into the net.

Portugal, which has been firmly suppressed by Bosnia and Herzegovina, easily won 3-0 at home and took the initiative in the World Cup qualifiers play-offs.

Four days later, the two teams moved to Bosnia and Herzegovina and began the second round of the game.

Because Ronaldo did not play in the last game, he felt that he was OK again after getting enough rest, so he started in this game and replaced himLedesson became the single striker of Portugal.

The midfield continues to continue the configuration of the previous game.

Perhaps the overall situation of qualifying has been decided, Queiroz's pre-match arrangement was very bad, so the players on the court also had some of their own ideas.

For example, Li Ling changed positions with Deke, from Deke to the front midfielder, and retreated to the midfield to play as a central defender.

Because during the training these days, Deke and Li Ling had some communication, perhaps because he felt that he had no prospects in the club this season, so Deke was more concerned about the national team. Deco, who is old and has minor injuries and illnesses, cannot provide high-intensity interception and coverage in the midfield. Fortunately, Bosnia and Herzegovina is not very strong, and there were no adverse consequences in these two games. .

Although Li Ling, who was standing in the central forward position, was far away from the goal and wanted to make a forward attack, he needed to run a lot, but these expenses were nothing to Li Ling. On the contrary, in the central forward position, Li Ling got more long-range shots. Within the 35-meter range, it can be said that every shot of Li Ling poses a huge threat. In addition, Li Ling's large-scale running and active defense made it difficult for Bosnia and Herzegovina to pass the football smoothly through the midfield, so he could only choose to hold high and play.

However, although Dzeko is of good quality, he is not able to shake the defense of the Portuguese national team. The central defender combination of Ricardo Carvalho and Bruno Alves firmly pushes him outside the penalty area.

In this game, Ronaldo, who gave up holding the ball, gained the most. He received a straight pass from Deco and a long pass from Li Ling. Ronaldo relied on counter-offside and scored 2 goals. . Although Ronaldo is not used to playing single forward position, and he paid 7 offsides for these two goals, he adapted very quickly, with 5 offsides in the first half and only 2 in the second half. After handing over enough tuition, he got 2 goals.

Although Bosnia and Herzegovina relied on Pjanic's long pass and Dzeko scored a wonderful header with a straight corner, Bosnia and Herzegovina still lost 1:2 at home, blocking them by Portugal. Outside the World Cup.

The Portuguese team entered the 2010 World Cup with their heads held high.
