Chapter 550: Ronaldo was injured and left the field, Lin Quan made a long-distance attack!

Ronaldo's expression was somewhat painful, not because the score was behind and the Portuguese team could not find a chance to score.

But because he was injured!

In the 78th minute of the second half, Ronaldo collided with Busquets during a fight in the frontcourt, and both of them fell to the ground.

The slow-motion replay at the scene showed that when Ronaldo received the pass from his teammate and was about to break forward, he was hit by Busquets who was defending him. Busquets' right knee hit Ronaldo's left knee, and both of them seemed to be seriously injured.

After the Spanish team doctor came on the field, he examined Busquets and then signaled to the coaching staff on the sidelines to make a substitution.

Obviously, Busquets can no longer hold on.

After the Portuguese team doctor came on the field, he also examined Ronaldo.

Ronaldo's injury is not light, but he doesn't want to be replaced now because his team is still behind and he doesn't want to be a deserter.

Therefore, even though he was advised by the team doctor, Ronaldo still chose to stay on the court.

After seeing Ronaldo limping to his feet, more than 80,000 fans at the scene applauded him, including Spanish fans.

No matter how Ronaldo performed in this game, whether he scored a goal or not, his actions were enough to win the respect of the fans on the scene.

But once you are hurt, you are hurt, and it cannot be changed by human will.

Ronaldo played with an injury and his condition deteriorated seriously. He could not exert strength in his left knee and even had difficulty running. He felt unbearable pain when he moved at all.

What made him even more uncomfortable was that the injured area of ​​his left knee began to swell and become congested, making it impossible for him to bend his knee, let alone use it normally.

So, after persisting for 5 minutes, Ronaldo finally couldn't hold on any longer.

He understood that if he stayed on the court, he would not only fail to help the team, but would only drag down his teammates.

Ronaldo covered his eyes with his hands in pain, his eyes were already wet and he shed tears of unwillingness.

The referee saw someone injured and fell to the ground, so he stopped the game and walked quickly towards the fallen player.

There was an uproar at the scene, and countless fans subconsciously stood up and looked at Ronaldo who was lying on the ground injured.

On the sidelines, Portugal coach Fernando Santos had an extremely solemn expression on his face. At this critical juncture when the team was falling behind and time was running out, the core player of the team could not afford to be injured. This blow was almost fatal.

Although there was still some time before the end of the game, he seemed to have seen the fate of the team.

The team doctor once again came onto the field carrying a medical kit, but this time, Ronaldo did not continue.

After receiving treatment from the team doctor, he was carried away on a stretcher.

Ronaldo, who was carried onto a stretcher, was in tears and even began to sob.

Men don't shed tears easily, but they do when they are sad.

The fans at the scene began to shout Ronaldo's name, and the nearby Portuguese players also surrounded their captain when the stretcher passed by, and comforted their captain.

In the CCTV studio, commentator He Wei saw this scene and said with emotion: "A hero fell on the road to pursuing his dream!"

C Ronaldo is 31 years old this year. By the time of the next European Cup, he will be 35.

Given the strength of the Portuguese team and Ronaldo's age, if they miss this opportunity, they may not have another chance next time.

Therefore, Ronaldo's fall marks the complete failure of Ronaldo and the Portuguese team's dream-chasing journey in the European Cup.

Everyone present understood this, and also understood that the excitement of the final would be greatly reduced without the main character, Cristiano Ronaldo.

The following time may be garbage time.

However, the Portuguese, or Ronaldo, did not give up so easily.

When he was carried to the sidelines on a stretcher, his good friend Quaresma was already standing there ready to play.

Ronaldo took off the captain's armband on his arm and handed it to Quaresma, then declined the team doctor's advice and chose to sit on the bench and insist on watching the rest of the game!

Judging from the substitutions made by the Portuguese team, they obviously have no intention of giving up.

Although Quaresma's strength is far inferior to that of Ronaldo, he also has his own unique skill - the outside of his foot!

After Portugal's substitute striker Ede came on the pitch, he was in an awkward situation because he couldn't get the pass from his midfield teammates.

But after Quaresma, the king of outside of the foot, came on the court, he formed a chemical reaction with him.

Quaresma made several wonderful passes to Eder using the outside of his foot.

Ed was not used to it at first. He was not decisive enough after receiving the ball and was blocked by the defender before he even had a chance to shoot.

But once he adapted to Quaresma's passing style, he immediately posed a threat to Spain's goal.

In the 83rd minute of the second half, Ed received a pass from Quaresma, lightly touched the ball, changed the flight trajectory of the football, and directed the ball to the dead corner at the far end.

Casillas was in such a hurry that he had no time to save the ball and almost surrendered.

However, just when everyone thought that the ball was going to fly into the goal, there was a loud bang, and the football hit the crossbar and bounced out of the bottom line.

The Portuguese fans behind the goal had already clenched their fists and were ready to jump up to celebrate. From their perspective, the ball was definitely going to score.

Unexpectedly, he was unlucky and hit the crossbar! Ed, who shot the ball, knelt down in the penalty area and hugged his head in frustration. Why didn't the ball go in?

After he made that move, he was already ready to celebrate the goal.

C Ronaldo, who was sitting on the bench, excitedly threw away the towel wrapped around his injury and was about to celebrate, but he saw the football being blocked by the crossbar.

At this moment, Ronaldo's regret, annoyance and disappointment were no less than Ed's.

If I were on the court, the ball would most likely go in, right?

Ronaldo thought to himself, he was very confident in his heading skills and firmly believed that if he was on the field, he would definitely be able to score.

It’s a pity that he didn’t get such a good opportunity when he was there.

The Spanish players who escaped the disaster all felt very lucky. Ramos even ran over and kissed the door frame.

The French goal frame really helped a lot, it saved them at least twice in this game!

If it weren't for these two crucial saves from the goal frame, Spain might have fallen behind.

The Spanish team had originally thought that they could easily win the game without the opponent's core players, so they had been slacking off, but were awakened by the opponent's continuous threatening attacks.

Then, they launched a counterattack against the Portuguese team without any hesitation.

In fact, when the game reached around the 75th minute of the second half, the Spanish team's physical strength was already a bit exhausted.

Ronaldo's injury just delayed them for a few minutes, which gave them a little respite.

In addition, the Spanish players also understand that the closer it gets to the end of the game, the more they cannot allow the opponent to form an encirclement against them.

A one-goal lead is not enough. The opponent only needs to score one goal to put both teams back on the same starting line.

In the final stage of the game, once the opponent's attack is launched, the leading side may not be able to hold on under the huge pressure of the game.

Therefore, we must seize the initiative in the game, either take the initiative to attack and bring the battle to the opponent's half, preventing them from posing a threat to our goal.

Or you can make a concerted effort and take advantage of the opponent's eagerness to attack and the empty defense to score another goal.

If they could score another goal at this time, it would completely destroy the opponent's fighting spirit, and Spain would be able to completely secure the victory! The Spanish people understood this, so even though their physical energy was exhausted, they gritted their teeth and launched an attack.

Lin Quan ran with the ball and looked around him.

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

Pedro on the wing could no longer run, and David Silva fell behind him. Morata on the striker was still running, but his positioning was not very good and he was double-teamed by two opposing defenders.

Even if Lin Quan finds a way to pass the ball, he may not be able to hold it. Once he loses the ball, not only will the trip be in vain, but the opponent's goalkeeper may even kick the ball directly back to his own half, leading to the opponent's counterattack.

So, after weighing the pros and cons, Lin Quan chose to rush forward with the ball himself.

Behind Lin, Koke, who had just replaced the injured Busquets, was running as fast as he could.

He had only been on the court for a few minutes and was full of energy.

So Koke quickly left his teammates and several Portuguese players behind, and thought he would be able to quickly catch up with Lin Quan who was dribbling the ball.

But when he rushed through the midfield and looked up, he found that Lin Quan was still in front of him, and was running farther and farther away.

This discovery surprised Cork! What happened?

It's been 85 minutes, how can Lin still have so much energy? Not only Koke can't figure it out, but also several Portuguese defenders can't figure it out.

When Spain launched a counterattack, they were ahead of Lin Quan, but as they ran, Lin Quan was on par with them.

What’s even more terrible is that Lin Quan’s speed didn’t slow down at all, and he even ran faster and faster. If he continued like this, it wouldn’t be long before they would be left behind by Lin Quan.

There were also bursts of exclamations from the stands. Fans of both teams held their breath and stared at the field intently.

Whether in the league or in the cup, Lin Quan's offensive style of riding alone and running long distances can best ignite the enthusiasm of the fans and make everyone feel excited.

Some people even think that this offensive method, which symbolizes speed, passion and courage, is the real football! In comparison, the offensive method that makes the players drowsy, chaotic and disorganized is not worthy of being called football.

The fans in the stands were delighted by the game, and some even cheered loudly.

But the Portuguese players on the field, especially the defenders, were suffering.

The opponent's speed was getting faster and faster, and he was about to surpass them.

In another second, they might not even have the chance to foul! In a hurry, Portugal's central defender Fonte could not care less and directly tackled Lin Quan who was dribbling the ball.

He planned to stop both the man and the ball.

If you are lucky enough to knock down the ball first, then everything will be fine. However, if you don't knock down the ball but knock down a person, a foul in this position is likely to result in a red card! It is difficult to say whether this red card is worth it, because after being sent off, the Portuguese team, which has one less player and little time, is likely to lose.

But if there was no foul, once Lin Quan rushed over, with his terrifying success rate in one-on-one attacks, losing the ball would almost be inevitable.

Portugal will still be doomed by then! After Fonte made the tackle, he could no longer care about so much.

Fonte's idea was good, but his intention was too obvious. Before he made the tackle, Lin Quan had already noticed it. At the moment Fonte made the tackle, he jumped up in time and avoided the opponent's interception.

Fonte, who was sliding past from below, was stunned. He wanted to stop both the player and the ball, but he stopped nothing! Although Fonte failed to stop Lin Quan, his tackle was not completely ineffective.

In order to avoid Fonte's tackle, Lin Quan had to kick the ball a little further to make it easier for him to jump.

As a result, the football was briefly out of his control.

Portugal's goalkeeper Patricio decisively chose to attack, trying to compete with Lin Quan for control of the ball.

After dodging Fonte's tackle, Lin Quan had a one-on-one opportunity.

If he didn't attack, he would just sit there and wait for death.

Patricio's timing of attack was very good. Although the ball seemed to be farther away from him, the ball was rolling towards him, and the distance between the two was constantly shrinking.

Even if he couldn't get the ball, he could still block all of Lin Quan's shooting angles and resolve the crisis! Lin Quan was sprinting, and Patricio was also sprinting.

In the stands, the hearts of fans on both sides were in their throats.

They were all cheering for their own players in their hearts, fearing that the other team would take the lead and touch the ball earlier than them.

Almost everyone on the coaching and substitute benches on both sides couldn't help but stand up, staring at the Portuguese penalty area with wide eyes, for fear of missing this crucial moment.

Sitting on the bench, Ronaldo felt extremely nervous. He looked at Lin Quan's running back, clenched his fists, and hoped that his teammates could stop him! However, in this suffocating atmosphere, Spain's No. 10 took the lead and touched the ball.

Patricio was a little slow, but still appeared in front of Lin Quan in time. As he expected, he blocked almost all of Lin Quan's shooting angles.

At this time, Lin Quan had already rushed into the penalty area. The goalkeeper in the penalty area could use his hands to grab the ball. No matter how strong your footwork is, it can't be more flexible than your hands.

So in this fight, Patricio felt that he had already won.

However, what Patricio never expected was that Lin Quan seemed to have predicted his movements, and got there before him, flicking and pulling the ball with his toes, then turning around and actually passing him directly.

How is this possible?

How could this guy complete such a move while running at high speed? Patricio was stunned, and subconsciously reached out and pulled Lin Quan to the ground as he was about to turn around.

However, when Lin Quan fell to the ground, he swept the football with his right leg and swept the ball into the goal.

The score became 2:0, and Spain completely secured the victory!
