The Day I Played with Ronaldo

Chapter 360: Calm Ricardo

Seeing that the victory was decided, Pereira replaced Kaka with Ricardinho, and Juninho replaced Adriano, so that the two players could get a full rest.

The Ghanaian team also made a last-ditch effort, and Boateng replaced Addo. But their players don't know why they still play.

It is impossible to equalize, and it is impossible to equalize in this life. Some people want to enter at least one to save face. Some people think that this score is enough, and if they attack aggressively, if they get one or two counterattacks by the Brazilian team, it will be even more embarrassing.

The lack of unity of thought caused them to kick more and more chaotically.

In the 80th minute, they made matters worse. Ji An fell down and tried to cheat a penalty kick without any physical contact with anyone in the restricted area of ​​the Brazilian team. The referee Michelle showed a second yellow card, and the two yellow cards changed. Yihong was sent off.

At this point, the Ghanaian players completely lost confidence.

In the 84th minute, Ricardinho sent an over-the-top long pass in the midfield, and Ze Roberto successfully turned offside to form a single goal. He picked the ball past the goalkeeper Kingston on the edge of the penalty area and expanded the score to 4:0.

This score was also maintained until the end.

The Brazilian team has taken another solid step on the road to winning the championship!

After the game, Pereira kept his promise and took Ricardo to the press conference.

Ricardo, who used to always have a smile on his face when facing the media, today had a tense face the whole time, with no trace of a smile or joy after a big victory.

After the two coaches summed up the game and answered the reporter's questions, the reporters cheered up and began to focus their firepower on Riccardo.

"Licardo, what do you think of this game?"

"The opponent played very tenaciously,

But we have more experience, so it was logical to get a victory. "Licado replied blankly.

"It's your second World Cup game and you've already scored twice, how do you feel about that?"

"Because I saw the opportunity, I acted and scored goals. I was calm, I scored a lot every season, there is nothing to say about that."

Can goals in the league have the same gold content as goals in the World Cup? But the reporters looked at Licado's calm eyes, that calmness was not pretended, but had various internal and external aspects.

He really doesn't care!

Why does a 20-year-old young man have such calm eyes as he has gone through all the vicissitudes of life?

"About Ronaldo's injury..."

"I'm sad, but I believe he will come back. He can stand on the court again and give us a wonderful performance. He will still be the world's number one striker." Ricardo said firmly.

"It is said that due to Ronaldo's injury, Real Madrid is considering introducing a striker to replace him. They are very interested in you..."

"I don't know about it. The only thing I think about now is to help Brazil defend the World Cup title. The transfer can be considered after the World Cup is over."

"That is to say, you really intend to transfer?"

"I didn't say that, I'm still considering my options. I'll give you an answer after the World Cup."

After satisfying the curiosity of the reporters, Ricardo left the press conference with Pereira.

Later, the French team eliminated Spain 3:1, and they will become the opponents of the Brazilian team in the next game. The game will be played in Frankfurt, and the Brazilian team will have to move again.

So far this World Cup has not been too popular. The rich and powerful teams have all qualified, and the 16th finals are basically won by the favored teams.

Traditional strong teams such as Germany, Argentina, Italy, England, Portugal, France, and Brazil have all entered the quarterfinals.

There is only one slightly eye-catching figure in the top 8, and that is Ukraine led by the nuclear warhead Shevchenko.

However, it is not surprising that Ukraine squeezed out Tunisia and Saudi Arabia to qualify in the group, and it is not an impossible miracle to eliminate the opponent with a penalty kick after a tie with Switzerland.

But their good luck ends here, and their next opponent is Italy.

Italy, which is deeply trapped in the telephone door, urgently needs a booster shot to cheer them up. In this World Cup, they are playing steadily, their condition is not very good, and their lineup is not very luxurious, but they can always defeat all kinds of powerful enemies and continue to move forward.

However, the Brazilian team must enter the final to meet Italy. Now, they have to deal with the French team first.

The French team with Vieira, Zidane, and Henry is by no means so easy to solve.

In particular, the Brazilian team itself is also full of hidden dangers.

In the major media the next day, the critics were not optimistic about the Brazil team just because the Brazil team won a big victory. His ability is not strong, so he scored a big score.

Judging from the content of the game, the strength gap between the two teams is not so obvious.

"Brazil's victory is not convincing...Of course, Brazil with Ricardo, Ronaldinho and Kaka will win anyway. Ricardo has shown an offensive ability no less than Ronaldo , Under his leadership, even if the content of the game is not good enough, the Brazilian team can seize the opportunity to score goals."

"Ronaldinho did not show the style of the Golden Globe winner at all. Pereira's tactics seriously hindered Ronaldinho's performance."

"Adriano lost his power in the America's Cup and the Confederations Cup. He could only score the goals he should have scored, and sometimes he couldn't even score the goals he should have scored, and he couldn't play like one or two goals. Score all kinds of unbelievable goals like he did years ago."

"Brazil, without Ronaldo, did not show weakness against Ghana. But the game against France was the real test for them. The consequences of losing Ronaldo will eventually be shown."

Although judging from the odds offered by major bookmakers, people are still more optimistic about Brazil's victory, but the gap is very small.

Henry has arrived, Zidane and Vieira are no longer in their glory. If this French team really has anything, it can only be said to have experience.

But the Brazilian team also has its own problems. Whether the magic quartet can play after losing Ronaldo, Pereira still has to work hard.

When Ronaldo was there, the Brazilian team could be unreasonable, and even if they had no chance, they could score you a goal or two.

But Ricardo and Adriano obviously don't have this ability, neither can Ronaldinho and Kaka.

If the midfield organization continues to be chaotic and the defense makes frequent mistakes like they did against Ghana, they may not pass the French team.
