The Day I Played with Ronaldo

Chapter 368: Three Ricardos

Any team aspiring to win the championship, after entering the knockout stage, is unwilling to be dragged into overtime.

Because if you play overtime and win the game, and your opponent doesn't play overtime in the next game, then you will naturally be at a physical disadvantage and the probability of winning will be lower.

Therefore, while the Brazilian team and the French team are solidly defending, they also strengthened their offense in unison, trying to break through the opponent's goal and avoid being dragged into overtime.

The offense is what the Brazilian team is best at.

So after the French team briefly took the initiative, the Brazilian team gradually gained the upper hand. Ronaldinho and Kaka used their talents to take back the midfield controlled by the French team bit by bit. Especially after Zidane's physical decline, the French team's loss of control in the midfield was very obvious.

In the 61st minute, the Brazilian team played a quick attack. Ricardo moved to the right and gave the middle to Kaka.

Ricardo made a gesture to cut in with the ball, but instead gave the ball to Cafu, he went in the middle.

After Cafu got the ball, he immediately crossed to find Adriano. Adriano headed the ball to Ricardo. Ricardo volleyed with his left foot from a small angle. The quality is really not bad.

Two minutes later, the Brazilian team attacked from the right again. After Kaka and Ricardo cooperated continuously, they made a low pass. When it was cheap, the ball was scored by Dida.

Seeing that the attack from the right seemed to be effective, the Brazilian team launched consecutive attacks from the right. In the 64th minute, after Cafu dribbled the ball for 30 meters, he made a two-for-one cooperation with Kaka, and after receiving the ball, he passed Abidal's cross.

The ball flew to the center of the penalty area, Adriano missed the point, Thuram headed the ball, but Ze Robert appeared in the second spot and gave the ball directly to Ricciardo. Ricardo made a gesture to shoot, but he dunked Makelele, and then passed the ball to Adriano. Adriano turned around and shot directly after stopping the ball. Unfortunately, he used his bad right foot and hit the ball. up the plane.

The continuous assists made Cafu's physical exertion relatively large, and Pereira quickly made a second substitution adjustment, replacing him with Maicon.

If there is no hindsight, there is actually nothing wrong with this substitution. Maicon performed well in Inter Milan, with very strong assist ability, excellent physical fitness and excellent physical fitness. Using him to replace Cafu near the end of the game can enhance the Brazilian team's offensive ability on the right.

But people like hindsight.

In the 68th minute, after receiving a pass from Kaka, Ricardo turned around and wanted to wipe into the penalty area of ​​the French team, but Vieira rushed over and bumped him. He fell on the penalty area line and lost the ball.

The referee Cantalejo did not stop the game, and the French team immediately launched a counterattack. After the ball was handed over to Zidane, Zidane made a long pass to find Henry.

Henry scooted up like a Ferrari and crossed the ball wide as he approached the Brazilian penalty area.

Franck Ribery slashed out from a slanting stab, staggered across the ground, and used the acceleration to change direction to pass Maicon. Maicon's feet stumbled, and he stood up again with his hands on the ground, unable to catch up with him in time. , Ribery adjusted calmly and then kicked and shot.

Dida's reaction was not unpleasant, he reacted immediately, a beautiful side attack, but Ribery's shot was too tricky, before Dida's finger reached, it stuck to the turf, rubbed the post and rolled into the net .

Scar Warrior immediately turned around and celebrated! In the stands of the stadium, the fans of the French team also screamed excitedly.

"Goal!!!" The commentator didn't feel tired at all, he was still full of energy and his voice was loud, "Franck Ribery's beautiful goal! The French team took the lead again in the 68th minute!"

"The ball came from a precise long pass from Zidane,

From Henry's sharp breakthrough and ingenious passing, the whole process is smooth and smooth, very exciting! "

"The Brazilian team is very dangerous! There are about 30 minutes left, can they rewrite the score again? Pereira's substitution is very bad. Maicon who just played has not yet adapted to the rhythm of the game. Under the flexible Ribe In front of him, he looks so clumsy!"

Maicon seemed at a loss at this time, and the conceded goal hit him very hard. If he had defended well, maybe this wouldn't have happened.

Many people are asking in their hearts, if it was the experienced Cafu who just appeared here, would the result be different?

Ricardo watched the French team's celebration depressedly for a while, then slowly walked back to his own half, put his hand on Maicon's shoulder: "Don't panic, everyone makes mistakes, now you have to adjust quickly Mentality, play the next game well."

Only then did Mai Kong, who had no master in mind, regain his mind and nodded: "Don't worry, I won't make mistakes again."

After taking the lead, France shrank back.

They began to use foul tactics to block Brazil's attack. Sagnol and Ribery successively received yellow cards for fouls when defending Kaka and Ricardo, but Brazil's free kick did not work. Be very careful.

"The French team defended with heart. Few teams in the world can break through their city," said the commentator. "After the goal was conceded, the Brazilian team launched several attacks, but the effect was not ideal."

Pereira walked up and down the sidelines uneasily, his eyes swept over the players on the bench from time to time.

Finally he stood still, "Ricardinho, go warm up."

Ricardinho, who has never played in this World Cup, stared wide-eyed. It took several seconds to react, stood up quickly, and began to warm up.

Not only this World Cup, but Ricardinho has never played in the World Cup. At this time, his nervousness is far greater than his excitement.

Seeing Ricardinho's slightly stiff movements, Pereira frowned slightly.

It's not that he has no other options, and the Brazilian team's bench is still full of talents. It's just that at this time he remembered the three heroes of Sao Paulo he faced when he was coaching Corinthians.

Compared with that time, both Kaka and Ricardo have improved like rockets, and Ricardinho has not stood still.

Although he is 30 years old, he has maintained a very good state. In 2005, he led Sao Paulo to win the Copa Libertadores.

If Ricardinho is sent on the field, can Kaka and Ricardo be stimulated to the maximum extent?

With this in mind, Pereira decided to give Ricardinho a chance.

"The Brazilian team made the last substitution adjustment," said the commentator, "Ricardinho came on and replaced Ze Roberto. Now there are three players named Ricardo on the Brazilian team! They It is the former three heroes of Sao Paulo!"
