Chapter 625 Chapter [059] - Double Teeth Collision - [Today's Second Update]
Seeing that the game is getting closer and closer, the Spanish "Marca" exposed the starting lineup of the Spanish national team for the Iberian Derby. Their headline is: 11 warriors from Spain to Portugal, who will defend Ronaldo in the revenge battle.
Their report is as follows: Spain conducted training yesterday. It is gratifying that Harvey Alonso, who was injured in the last game, is fine and trained with the whole team.If nothing else, Harvey Alonso will start against Portugal.
Spain's training session was only open to the media for 15 minutes before a closed session followed.Harvey Alonso is back from injury, which is a boon for Bosque, because the old coach can continue to use the same starting lineup as in the previous game. Busquets, Alonso and Harvey together support the Spanish midfielder.Harvey Alonso started in the 6-0 loss to Portugal in the European Cup 1 years ago, when Harvey was just a substitute.
Spanish defender Albiol will miss the game against Portugal due to an ankle injury, but Albiol is not the main force and will not affect the Spanish team's preparations.Iniesta and Torres have long been out of injury, and will continue to start against Portugal.
Another question for the Spanish team is who will defend Ronaldo on the wing.Between Capdevila and Arbeloa, Bosque will still choose veteran Capdevila.However, Ronaldo's position is no longer limited to the right, and defending Ronaldo is a matter for the entire Spanish team.
"Marca" Spain's predicted starting lineup: Casillas/Ramos, Pique, Puyol, Capdevila/Busquets, Alonso, Xavi/Iniesta, Torres, Villa
The competition was just around the corner, and the atmosphere was very tense, but at this moment, England's "Mirror" published such a funny news, which relieved the tension before the war. Their headline was: The Spanish Prime Minister called to boost morale, Ronaldo actually sent text messages to harass the opponent.
They revealed in their article: Spain played against Portugal, the two most traditional European teams that pay attention to technology met together. Before the game, the coaches and players of the two teams deliberately kept a low profile.
In this game, what the Spaniard feared the most was not Ronaldo, but the Portuguese's tight defense. In the three group matches, even against a strong team like Brazil, Portugal was able to keep a clean sheet.What is even more commendable is that in Portugal's past 26 games, 22 have not conceded a goal. These 22 games include the World Cup, qualifiers, and warm-up matches.
Just before the game, Spanish Prime Minister Zapatero called the head coach Bosque, encouraged the team to make persistent efforts in the knockout round, and promised that if the Spanish team can reach the semi-finals, he will go to South Africa to watch the game.This call also greatly boosted the morale of the team.
At the moment of the war, the Portuguese are playing psychological warfare. Ronaldo has already sent text messages to harass his Real Madrid teammate Ramos, "When you meet Portugal, you should stop having any illusions."Of course, Ramos is not a vegetarian. He immediately replied to Ronaldo’s text message without mercy: “Don’t deceive yourself.” As the leader of Portugal, Ronaldo has a lofty goal in the World Cup in South Africa, which is to help the Portuguese team win the championship and personally strive to be elected as the best player and top scorer.In Real Madrid this season, C. Ronaldo did not win the championship. If he wants to increase his weight in the World Footballer of the Year competition with Messi, C. Ronaldo must play a great World Cup.
●War of words
Del Bosque: Let me emphasize again that Portugal is not a team of C. Ronaldo plus ten other players as the media said.Portugal will be a very difficult team to deal with.Even if I didn't meet Brazil, I would not be relieved to meet Portugal.They are all great teams.
Ramos: I originally wanted to meet them later, but I feel sorry for Ronaldo and Pepe, because Portugal will be eliminated by us, and Spain will win the championship trophy like it did in 2008.
Queiroz: It will be a spectacular game.But we are not afraid of our opponents, the last time we met at the European Championship we won against Spain.So, it's no big deal, we know our opponents well.
Simao: It is normal for the Spaniards to be happy not to touch Brazil, but don't forget that our Portugal is also a very strong team.We will at least make Spain feel as hard to play against us as Brazil, if not harder.
●Battle record
The Spanish team and the Portuguese team have faced each other 32 times in history. Spain's record is clearly superior, with a total of 15 wins, 12 draws and 5 losses.The most recent confrontation between the two teams was in the European Cup group stage 6 years ago, when Portugal defeated Spain 1-0 and eliminated Spain.But the two teams have never collided in the World Cup.
Cape Town, the second largest city in South Africa, the legislative capital of South Africa, the provincial capital of the Western Cape, and an integral part of the Cape Town metropolitan area.Cape Town is world-famous for its beautiful natural landscapes and marinas. Well-known landmarks include Table Mountain, known as the "God's Table", and the Cape of Good Hope, the meeting point of the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean.It is located in the narrow strip at the northern end of the Cape of Good Hope, on the Atlantic Ocean's Turbul Bay.Founded in [-], it was originally the station of the East India Company's supply station. It was the earliest stronghold established by Western European colonists in southern Africa, so it is known as the "Mother of South African Cities".It is now the seat of the legislature.
The Cape Peninsula has a Mediterranean climate with four distinct seasons.In winter, from May to August every year, the cold front and a lot of rain come from the Atlantic Ocean, and the average temperature is only about 5°C.The highest rainfall in the whole city is in winter, and because of the topography, the rainfall in different regions may vary greatly.Summer is from November to February of the next year, and the climate is warm and dry with an average temperature of 8°C.
And there are many places worth visiting here, but Lin Tianyu and the others don't have so much free time.They had to get to Cape Town's Green Point as quickly as possible.Green Point Stadium is a newly built multi-functional stadium next to the old stadium, which has been converted into a new stadium and a promotional base for the World Cup.The Green Point Stadium faces the sea and leans against Table Mountain to the right. It is located in the most beautiful place in Cape Town. Therefore, the design of the stadium should be in harmony with the natural landscape so that they can be harmoniously integrated.It is named for its location in the "Green Point" district on the coastal outskirts of Cape Town.With a capacity of 70, Green Point Stadium is the second largest stadium in South Africa.
When we came to the stadium, the game had just started, and the atmosphere in the stadium was very hot.After the game, the Italian national team came to Cape Town to watch the battle of the two teeth. Xu Zhou sat in the stands to watch the game.It was not the first time for Xu Zhou to watch a game in the stands, but the atmosphere still made him feel as if it was the first time. The atmosphere was too hot.
The fans of Shuangya competed in the stands. Fans from both sides sang the national anthem of their own country, or slammed the opponent's players crazily, or excitedly cheered for their team. These performances can be described as varied.
As the two strongest teams in the Iberian Peninsula, the battle between Spain and Portugal is also regarded as a contest between Mars and Earth in the 1/8 finals. The struggle between Ronaldo and the Spanish stars is full of expectations.Spain continued to use the lineup when they defeated Chile 2-1 in the last round of the group stage, while Portugal used center Almeida as the starting lineup. Coach Queiroz's move was mainly to liberate Ronaldo.The two teams have played against each other 32 times in history, and Spain has the upper hand with 15 wins, 12 draws and 5 losses, but the two teams have never met in the World Cup.
Therefore, this game will make people look forward to it even more. Before the game started, the stadium was already filled with fans, and of course there was the resonant sound of woozu.Being in the crowd of fans, Xu Zhou really felt how powerful this thing is, and the teammates around him were also amazed, grandma, it is much more "comfortable" to hear it here than on the court.
Before the game started, Xu Zhou chatted with Montelivo, Giovinco and others around him. Yes, in this national team, Xu Zhou is most familiar with Monterey, Giovinco and Marchisio.
At this time, players from both sides of the court had already appeared on the field. Under the leadership of the referee, they walked into the field, stood in the middle circle, and then began the ceremony of playing the national anthem.Sitting in the stands and watching all this, Xu Zhou had another feeling, which was completely different from the feeling he had standing below.
Soon these tedious ceremonies were over, and the long-awaited game was about to begin.At this time, Xu Zhou, Monterey and others were observing the starting lists of both sides on the field, and they were also exchanging their views on the starting lists of both sides.At this time, the announcer at the scene began to introduce today's starting list of both sides.
The starting lineup of both sides is as follows:
Spain (442): 1-Casillas/15-Ramos, 3-Pique, 5-Puyol, 11-Capdevila/14-Alonso (, 16-Butzkes, 8-Xavi, 6-Iniesta/7-Villa, 9-Torres
Portugal (433): 1-Eduardo/21-Costa, 6-Carvalho, 2-Bruno, 23-Cohentrao/16-Meireles, 15-Pepe, 19-Thiago/11-Siman, 18-Almeida, 7-C Ronaldo
