football superstar

The ties between Portugal and France run deep.

The two teams have played against each other 23 times in total. Portugal has 5 wins, 1 draw and 17 losses. Portugal is generally at a disadvantage.In fact, there is no shortage of good players in Portugal, but it may be due to limitations or objective factors. In short, Portugal is no better than France in terms of statistics. The last time Portugal beat France, it dates back to an international friendly match in April 9.

The 38 years of invincibility in various competitions until now is enough to make Portuguese people still remember. In the previous game held in Portugal, Portugal lost 0:3 at home, and once again continued this embarrassing record of invincibility against France. .

This time I came to France, many fans came with resentment.

Nima, this time we have Ronaldo, Nani, and Clemens who is comparable to an iron gate!I don't believe I can kneel down to you Frenchmen!

The French fans completely ignored these thousands of fans who accompanied the team. For them, as long as football is involved, these usually arrogant French people can burst out with amazing enthusiasm. It is too late to cheer for their own team. Just ignore these defeated Portuguese.

But unlike the tension between fans, the players on both sides really seemed very harmonious.

Both teams are strong European teams. The players among them are basically playing in the five major leagues. Many of them are teammates. There are six or seven people from the two clubs of Real Madrid and Manchester United. Not to mention the mutual greetings between them, there are many hugs after meeting acquaintances.

Clemens saw a Real Madrid defender who had just played against not long ago, Varane who sent a key penalty for Deportivo.

Varane obviously also saw Clemens. The expression on the face of this talented French player was distorted for a moment. If Varane could choose, he would never want to face Clemens again.

In that Copa del Rey final, perhaps the entire Real Madrid team was heartbroken, but Varane was definitely the most depressed among them.

An unintentional handball handed over the championship, and the opponent's goalkeeper Clemens took the penalty kick in the end. It feels really bad that the efforts of the whole team have been beaten to death by one person in the cradle.

Even though the whole team was comforting him after the game, including coach Mourinho also hugged the young French lad hoping to give him some encouragement, it still couldn't completely dissipate Varane's depression.

Now when he sees Clemens, Varane has an urge to turn around and run, but he can’t do without saying hello. After all, Ronaldo’s eyes are looking this way. In the Real Madrid club, Ronaldo, the number one The status of the scorer is unquestionable, Varane can only bite the bullet and walk over, and smiled at Clemens: "Hello, Thomas, we meet again."

Clemens also remembered him. This young man was extremely unlucky in the finals. Naturally, Clemens would not mention that at this moment. He just nodded at him, shook hands and blessed each other before parting. up.

As Clemens' teammate, Griezmann naturally wanted to stick to him as soon as he met, but because Griezmann was entrusted with important tasks by coach Didier Deschamps in this game, he has always been under the French team captain and goalkeeper Lloris. He listened to the captain's lecture by his side, but his eyes looked over from time to time.

Counting Clemens as a member of Deportivo, although Real Madrid players treat him well because of Ronaldo's relationship, his friendship with others is still very shallow.Deportivo de La Coruña can dominate La Liga this season, but because they don't have any successful European results, many players in other leagues don't know much about Clemens. This kind of "hello, hello, hello everyone" atmosphere seems quite relaxed.

But immediately, a French player who looked not tall but very strong walked up to Clemens.

Clemens took two steps back. In fact, this is his habit. The tall Clemens doesn't like to stand too close to people. Otherwise, the other party has to lift his head very high to look at him, which is a bit uncomfortable.

And when the French player raised his head, the first thing he saw was a long scar on his face, which was very conspicuous on the right side of his face. People who didn't know him would naturally find it scary.

But for Mr. Daochang, this is nothing. Mr. Daochang is someone who has seen it before. The function of this is just to distinguish who is a foreign Taoist who can cure prosopagnosia, so when facing the man's face, Clemens blinked his eyes, his expression was calm as usual.

This kind of reaction made the man raise his eyebrows, and then stretched out his hand to him: "Hi, I'm Frank Ribery," and then he added a note to himself, "Thomas Muller is my teammate ’” Franck Ribery spoke German, and it looked like Müller had done a good job of promoting Clemens’ German.

Clemens still remembered the German boy who liked to feed horses and tell jokes, so he naturally had a better impression of Ribery, and he also reached out and shook hands with him: "Hi, I'm Thomas Clay Mengs."

"Sure enough, it's the same as what Thomas said, oh, I'm talking about the Thomas I know." Ribery laughed, his scarred face made his smile look a bit wicked, but obviously this vicious-looking man The French have a temper similar to that of Muller, and love to talk and laugh.

Clemens did not refute this evaluation. The word seriousness has always been a compliment in Mr. Daochang's dictionary.

In fact, Clemens didn't just stand here just now, and his eyes would look at the French team from time to time. Among the players in blue, Ribery's status is undoubtedly very high, and this This high status is not like the leadership and control of the captain, but more like being respected like a leading brother, similar to Ricky in Deportivo, enough to see Ribery's status in the locker room.

Ribéry didn't stay with Clemens for too long, but before parting, he looked at Clemens and said: "No one has scored your goal before."

Clemens blinked, "Yes."

Franck Ribery laughed again, with the desire to win in that smile, and he didn't say anything harsh or say the end of the game. He just returned to the French team with a happy mood and waited to line up to play.

Clemens finds it interesting, he now finds the fun of playing with the national team.

La Liga is very good, but the players in La Liga are those. We meet each other every week, and we get used to it after seeing them a lot, especially those forwards who used to say that they must break Clemens before the game. After the game, slapping the face, the more people do this, the less people do it, which more or less makes Clemens feel a little bored.

So he is looking forward to a match against a strong team like Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​at least they will not casually go to the goal.

The national team competition is different. Whether it is the European qualifiers or the World Cup in the future, he will meet elites from various countries, and the players he will see will be completely different. This kind of challenge makes people like it.

In the past, Mr. Daochang would not feel any touch, but now it is different. Mr. Daochang, who has found the real fun of the game, naturally likes to meet this kind of challenge. He looked down at the Portuguese team emblem on his chest, showing a faint smile. smile.

Under the leadership of the referee, the players of both sides led their respective caddies into the arena.

In order to demonstrate the principle of fair competition in friendly matches, FIFA has introduced ball boys to accompany some important events, and there are also ball boys in some focus battles at the club level. The last time Clemens led My little friend Odin was the caddy at that time, and now he has become a member of your hard-core support team for Clemus.

But this time, when the national anthem was played in line at the end, the camera lens found a very interesting point, which made him schemingly freeze on the visiting team Portugal for a long time.

As Sessam has recently undertaken a lot of commentary and commentary work for the Spanish First Division matches, the response has been good, so this is the first time he has undertaken the commentary for national-level matches. Although there is no home team Spain, look at France and Portugal's lineup, almost one-third of the main players play in La Liga, and they are familiar faces to Spanish fans, so the ratings will naturally be very impressive.

Sessam attaches great importance to this job and carries a lot of information. He is going to talk about the starting lineup to increase his weight when the two sides play the national anthem, but when he sees a scene with the camera, Sessam His voice suddenly stopped, and then he said in a dumbfounding voice: "It seems that the French have made careful arrangements for this game. The arrangement is also very careful, we can follow the broadcast signal to pay attention to the caddy arrangement of the Spanish team, which is obviously very interesting."

Originally, this time was when the fans poured beer and ate potato chips to solve their physical problems, but after hearing what Sesam said, they all pulled their eyes back to the TV screen, and then they were slightly taken aback, and then laughed out loud. Voice.

Sessam couldn't laugh, he had to suppress the arc of his mouth to keep his voice calm: "The tallest player in the Portuguese team is undoubtedly the starting goalkeeper Thomas Clemens, who is currently playing for Deportivo. But the little caddy that the French side gave him was a beautiful little girl, but the little girl looked a little short, reaching only Clemens' waist. But Moutinho, who was the shortest in the Portuguese team, was only 1.7 meters tall. Paired with a caddy of more than 1.6 meters, it directly blocks half of Moutinho's face, and the poor Portuguese has to turn sideways to show his face, which looks very...interesting."

This scene became even more interesting after Sessam's explanation, and many fans quickly became angry on the website.

'I swear, just now Mr. Sessam, an Atletico Madrid fan, absolutely wanted to say that this match is very scheming! '

"Scheming 1, even if there is a 1.6-meter caddy, do you dare to match it with Toto, and you have to give it to Moutinho... bullying people hahahahaha! '

'I have to say that the French caddy looks really good, and the blond-haired controller suffered [-] points of damage. '

'ls your focus is so strange 23333'

'In fact, we can look forward to it. Griezmann and Ribery are flying together, and with Benzema in the middle, this offensive line can be said to be very luxurious, and it should be able to attack Clemens' goal. '

"Real Madrid fans expressed their dissatisfaction. Our offensive line is also luxurious, but the result... I will show you crying!" '

'Throw out a Master Luo, and he will cure all dissatisfaction. '

'Summon out Griezmann, the little handsome guy has good looks and speed, don't you be afraid! '

'xiu's pulling Nani out on his own!Even if henpecked, but our Louis is still sharp! '

'Give you back a Ribery, my scar face told a joke and laughed you to death! '

'...Do you dare to open your mouth properly?What the hell are you telling jokes?Believe it or not, we brought Toto foreign aid Muller to show you! '

'Pooh!Pulling my big raccoon teammate to be your foreign aid, show off! '

'At first glance, they are all acquaintances, how much shadow area does Xiaoge have in his heart now? '

'I also want to ask, after all, as a teammate, the club eats cakes, and now it's better to grab cakes from Clemens, I guess Xiaoge wants to take the ball home now haha... Let me tell you Why do the French feel happy now?'

Only Griezmann knows how complicated his mood is now.

I have to say that after moving to Deportivo Coruña, there are definitely more happy moments. The atmosphere in the team is harmonious, and the forward line will be humble to each other. There is also a passer, a shooter, and a penalty kick. The goalkeeper is really nothing to worry about.

But now that the situation has been reversed, Griezmann is not so interesting when he has to face his own goalkeeper.

He recalled Deschamps asking himself: "What is Clemens' weakness?"

Griezmann's answer at the time was almost hesitant for a long time before giving a plausible: "Maybe...it's okay when ten people kick the ball in at the same time."

For this, Griezmann was given a good lesson by captain Lloris, but the young Frenchman couldn't think of a better answer.

While the players on both sides are in a dull or tangled or excited mood, the game begins!

"The starting lineups on both sides of this game have made major adjustments. For the French team, Ribery, who missed the previous game because of Bayern Munich's Champions League match, returned to the starting lineup. The teenager Griezmann Was also recruited by Didier Deschamps, this game with Franck Ribery on both wings, presumably will contribute a very sharp breakthrough." Then Sessam turned to Portugal, "In the Portuguese team, the players are the same as the previous one. We have made major adjustments in the friendly match against Brazil, but the friendly match itself does not have any reference value. We can compare it with their starting lineup in the last round against Poland. It can be seen that although Nelson performed well in the club Not bad, but this game was put on the bench, and Nani, who has been in hot form recently, started the game."

The camera was also given to Portugal's bench at the right time. Nelson was wrapped in thick clothes to maintain his body temperature, but there was no dejection on his face. Instead, he seemed quite happy talking to his teammates around him, babbling endlessly The way he looked made coach Paul Bento have to rub his hair hard.

Sessam hastily coughed twice, and then continued: "However, in the Portuguese team, we can see that the biggest adjustment made in the last game against Poland is in the goalkeeper position. Clemens got the start in the national team's official debut, which is enough to show that Mr. Paulo Bento values ​​​​Clemens. Now those who expect Clemens to join the Spanish team can also give up. Clemens, who played on behalf of Portugal, is doomed to miss Spain... The ball went to Ribéry's feet, this is a low-level mistake by Portugal, and it gave us a chance!"

When the fans in Spain were endlessly regretting that the treasure Clemens was snatched away by Portugal next door, the situation on the court turned sharply in a direction that was not good for Portugal!

A pass error was directly inserted by Franck Ribery who interrupted the ball from two Portuguese players, and then there was no time for anyone to react. Franck Ribery drove straight in with a fierce look on his face!

Ribery can never be ignored, especially his sharp breakthrough can really make everyone scared. A good winger is what all teams rely on. Ribery, who can be honored as the "king" in the club There is nothing to criticize in terms of speed and skill. At this moment, the ball seems to be stuck to his feet, and it is quickly brought forward!

Paul Bento, who was still sitting on the bench seat, jumped up immediately when he saw this, walked to the sideline with a few strides, yelled at his players, and then had nothing to say.

He was so angry that he was speechless, and now Paulo Bento felt this feeling.

I analyzed them one by one before the game, and now the French team's offensive line must not let down their vigilance. Don't look at Ribery who is old and has been suffering from injuries recently, but let me keep an eye on him!Never give him any space!

The results of it?As a result, these guys directly left me a space for others, and there was a pass error...

If the rules do not allow the head coach to enter the field, Bento may have already rolled up his sleeves and went in to knock his head one after another.

However, no matter how anxious the head coach is on the sidelines, it will always be the players who are desperate on the court in the end.It is now less than 3 minutes after the start of the game. In fact, many Portuguese players have not found their form. Who knew that the French team would be caught off guard at the beginning of the game!

Nima, it is agreed that both sides are slow to heat up?You don't play by the rules!

Ribery didn't care about that, he just buried his head and dribbled forward with the ball, walking very fast, but his eyes were not idle, and he quickly looked towards the middle.

This situation was not discussed in advance, but Benzema and Griezmann reacted quickly enough. The moment Ribery advanced, the two turned around and started, striding towards the Portuguese penalty area!

Ronaldo didn't expect his teammates to start laying mines after the opening game, so he had to grit his teeth and chase back.

In the national team, Ronaldo has to bear more responsibilities and pressure than the club, just like now, if it is in Real Madrid, Ronaldo has no concept of participating in defense at all, and most of the conflicts between Mourinho and him are here .But in the national team, the captain's armband has given Ronaldo enough sense of responsibility, and he must make appropriate supplementary defenses.

But now, no matter how the frontcourt players chase back, it seems like a drop in the bucket. Griezmann, who is known for his speed, has firmly occupied his position, and Ribery squeezed through the cracks. The powerful winger was not afraid of the Portuguese defenders at all, and even brought the ball directly to the edge of the penalty area!

Clemens still remembers Ribery's combative and excited eyes before the game, and he did not expect to usher in a duel so soon.

Franck Ribery's eyes have been looking in the middle, as if looking for the line and position of the cross.Portugal's defense has also seen this. Most of them are hoarding troops to defend Griezmann and Benzema. There are a large number of people in the center and sideways, which fully blocked the position. Benzema, who was one step late, did not There was no room to turn around.

But to everyone's surprise, Ribery actually shot directly after picking the ball past Pepe!

Clemens admitted that he was also deceived by Ribery's move just now, which caused Clemens to stand closer to the center. Now Ribery used his right foot to take a shot with a small arc However, the ball came straight from the near corner of the goal!

Clemens reacted extremely quickly, he stretched his body quickly, and rushed straight towards the upper corner of the goal!

Due to the extremely fast speed of the ball and the tricky angle, Clemens couldn't directly hug the ball, so he had to punch the ball out with both fists!He had already noticed that the ball landed at the feet of his players, but... But Pepe actually dodged for a while...

The onlookers lost their composure for an instant.

What are you hiding!It was agreed that Pepe knows martial arts!Don't be afraid, you can turn around and open your feet! Hey!

But Pepe didn't dare to catch the ball directly, because it was too close to the goal, and Pepe's position was facing the goal. As long as his angle was slightly off, it was possible to push the ball directly into his own goal!

But after Pepe dodged, Joao Pereira behind him caught up with the header in time to clear the siege!Then, the ball drew a wonderful arc, high, slowly, and went straight to Portugal's own goal...

I knew it would be like this when Pepe looked on his face. Joao Pereira felt something was wrong after making the action, and looked at his goal in panic.

And the blond boy wearing a white goalkeeper jersey was already holding the ball tightly in his arms, and his eyes, which were always peaceful and half blue in the sea, shot towards the two of them like sharp swords, opened his mouth, and it was a shot. A string of calm but stern voices.

"You lost your place."

Being yelled at by the goalkeeper is something that every defensive player has to experience. After all, it happens from time to time that the goalkeeper is cheated by the defense line. The goalkeeper who slapped his family in the face naturally has reason to be angry.But the other goalkeepers were yelling and wanting to grab their teammates' ears directly, but Clemens looked very calm, but that handsome face was more scary than others when he was expressionless.

Clemens didn't say anything more, and he didn't even change his tone of voice. After finishing what he wanted to say, he kicked the ball with his big feet.

Both Pepe and Joao Pereira breathed a sigh of relief and returned to their defensive positions. Only Ronaldo, who was standing outside the penalty area, looked at Clemens with slightly raised eyebrows.

This is the first time, he felt that this guy who was as cold as a bamboo pole was angry.
