Spain's backcourt is empty, and Quaresman only has to face one central defender on his way inside.
In the end, the Portuguese superstar showed off his signature volley from the outside of his instep.
Spanish center back Nami blocked goalkeeper Reina's view. When Reina spotted the shot, the ball had already curved.
Reina tried his best to save, but the ball still bypassed his fingers.
"GOAL! Superstar! This is an absolute superstar!"
"Quaresma scored a golden goal, which is so important for the Portuguese team."
"He is worthy of his worth and special treatment. He gave the Portuguese team a chance to start again."
"If they fail to score this goal, the Portuguese team will be a piece of meat on the chopping board and will be slaughtered by Spain."
"Arteta just made a small mistake, which was related to the fact that he had been knocked down many times in the Portuguese half before. His foot felt a certain impact."
"Next, if nothing else happens, the Portuguese team will not play in their own half again."
"They might put their mind to a penalty shootout."
Huang Jianxiang really knows football.
Because that's what Violante emphasized at halftime.
Defense, defense, defense!
When you clearly know that you can't beat the opponent, a draw is actually a good result.
Lower your status first, then you might have a chance.
Because the stronger Spanish side obviously cannot accept a draw.
Valdes, the substitute goalkeeper on the Spanish team's bench, shook his head slightly.
He thought that Reina's reaction was slow and that's why he didn't pounce on the ball.
If it were him, he felt he could save it.
He always felt that he was superior to Reina in terms of reaction speed.
But Reina's physical template is better, so both the club and the national youth team suppressed him.
He lacks a chance.
Second half of the game.
After ten minutes of drowsy passing, the Spanish team itself became impatient.
They began to frequently enter the Portuguese half, and then encountered a new round of tough pressing.
In the 67th minute, Postiga knocked over Arteta.
Two minutes ago, he had just knocked down Gabi.
Arteta got up and got into an argument with Postiga, and the referee went over and warned Postiga.
If he continues to destroy the Spanish team's offensive opportunities with such unskilled moves, then he will get a card.
Postiga spread his hands helplessly, but didn't take it seriously.
He knew that his playing time was about to run out, so it would be a bit of a loss for him to leave the game without taking a card.
Violante specifically emphasized to him during midfield that he would be replaced around 70 minutes because his physical fitness could not support him to continue to press the Spanish team with high intensity after 70 minutes.
Sure enough, the referee's warning seemed to be a reminder.
In the 70th minute, Postiga did not brake when Iniesta had obviously already released the ball. He continued to rush over and knocked down Iniesta with his hands and feet.
Iniesta's face was full of pain, and he felt MMP in his heart. He knew that the Portuguese were shameless, but he didn't expect to be so shameless.
At this time Gabi rushed over and bumped directly into Postiga.
Both of them are strong players and they were able to go up against the bull at that time.
Deng Kai immediately went over and pulled Postiga away.
I was also cursing in my heart.
Damn, the Spanish player is really a thief. He wanted to take advantage of this foul to get Postiga a red card.
If they succeed, Portugal will collapse.
Sure enough, Gabi was unwilling to give up and wanted to continue to cause trouble.
Arteta also reacted and surrounded Postiga.
Fortunately, Ronaldo got the signal from Deng Kai's eyes and came over to block Arteta and Gabi.
Although Ronaldo is a year or two younger, his body is just as strong as theirs.
Although he is afraid of confrontation, if it is for Deng Kai, Ronaldo can fight.
Nonsence!
Who wants it for him?
He already has another dog outside.
Hathaway: Who are you scolding? She is obviously Kaikai’s warm-hearted kitten!
Beep!
The referee blew the whistle and showed Postiga a yellow card.
But Iniesta and others obviously did not agree and asked the referee to give a red card.
Deng Kai, Ronaldo, and Quaresma immediately went over to defend the referee, and the two sides argued for a while.
"If we continue to follow this standard, there will be problems in this game sooner or later." Iniesta threatened the referee, but he was indeed telling the truth.
"So you want to make the referee's penalty scale inconsistent? Just because you can't bear the intensity of the current game? Then you should exercise your body and lift iron instead of teaching the referee what to do here." Deng Kai replied.
Choking Iniesta.
Then they were all stopped by the referee.
Besides, I'm going to give you a yellow card.
Iniesta walked away angrily.
The competition started to get heated.
In the 72nd minute, all the Portuguese players were huddled in their own half.
The Spanish team passed the football a little bit, but immediately passed it back.
Ronaldo went up to press the opponent when he came over.
As a result, the opponent made continuous passes around Ronaldo, and Ronaldo slipped around like a monkey.
Ronaldo couldn't hold it back for a moment and was so angry that he threw his hands away.
Even if you know that your team is going to be in trouble, when someone is obviously teasing you, you still can't help but want to rush out and fight with the opponent.
"You just want a lost dog!" Gabi shouted at Ronaldo after playing the ball.
Ronaldo glared at Gabi fiercely, then stepped back.
Seventy-four minutes.
Iniesta took the initiative to challenge Postiga, but the latter received a yellow card and did not dare to make too big a move.
Iniesta relied on Postiga's "screen" to get a passing opportunity and found Torres on the right.
Torres' cross was deflected by Fonte.
Violante made an immediate substitution.
Substitute center Lorenzo replaced Postiga.
Iniesta was disappointed.
A brand new defensive center is here.
Even faster than Posti.
Grass!
Yes, Lorenzo never thought about scoring a goal when he came up. The Portuguese made up his mind to play a penalty shootout today.
Time continues to pass.
The Spaniards became increasingly impatient.
They are also more easily angered by Portuguese fouls.
Seventy-six minutes.
Gabby gets the ball.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who had been waiting for this opportunity for a while, went over and knocked Gabi over with a sliding shovel.
"Who looks like a lost dog now?" Ronaldo said to Gabi as they rolled on the ground.
Gabi and Ronaldo immediately started fighting on the ground.
The two sides were wrestling on the ground.
Players from both sides also rushed over immediately and started a new round of confrontation and tug-of-war.
The referee's head is getting big.
He misses Iniesta's words now.
But unfortunately...when the situation has developed to this point, it is actually more difficult for him to turn back.
The referee showed Ronaldo a yellow card. He believed that Ronaldo's tackle was retaliatory.
Gabi can't accept it at all. Isn't this a red card?
