Chapter Five Hundred and Sixty Seventh Pressure

Only 10 minutes into the game, Brazil central defender Thiago Silva already felt the pressure.

This is not the pressure brought to him by the attribute of "final", but the pressure brought to him by his opponent Spain.

Spanish players don't have a particularly good body, no particularly fast speed, no particularly sharp offense, and no particularly vicious steals.

What they have is extremely skilled passing and ball control.

Thiago Silva must maintain 100% concentration every second, because it is very likely that a slight negligence will cause holes in his defensive area and be penetrated by the opponent.

Such a ten-minute game is more tiring than the 45 minutes played against Chile.

Heart tired.

Nerves are like tightly stretched strings, and they will be unable to bear it at any time, and they will break with a "chi".

but……

Thiago Silva looked at the opposite defender and thought bitterly: They should be more tired than us.

After all, they are defending the three best offensive players in the world.

Even if they are not focused for 0.5 seconds, or if they make a decision error, it may cause a loss of the ball.

If they continue to fight like this, they must be the first to be overwhelmed.

Ramos was concentrating on sticking to Ricardo's side, as long as Ricardo was close to his defensive area, the responsibility belonged to him.

Ramos has a heavy task today, he has to defend Riccardo alone. Bosque asked him to give up the assist and freeze Ricardo with all his strength—but he didn't know whether he could complete this task.

At least in the previous training, he had never successfully frozen Ricardo, not even once.

Of course, there are many methods he can't use in training.

Today is different. This is the World Cup final. The ultimate stage every player desires.

Ramos took a deep breath. Even if the card is back, Li Cardo must be guarded.

Let's try referee Weber's scale first. Increase the movement step by step.

In the 11th minute, Ricardo suddenly turned around and retreated, receiving a pass from Kaka. Ramos posted it immediately, but did not immediately shoot.

Ricardo smashed the ball twice in a row, successfully broke through, cut inside and ran towards the penalty area.

Ramos followed up with hands and feet, slowed down Ricardo's speed, and tried to take the ball from Ricardo's feet. The referee Weber didn't say anything.

Before Ricardo entered the penalty area, Ramos secretly grabbed Ricardo's jersey, and immediately let go after Ricardo lost his balance.

Ricciardo briefly lost control of the ball and Puyol went up to destroy it.

Riccardo turned around and complained to referee Weber, but Weber didn't say anything.

Ramos is more aware of Weber's law enforcement standards.

"Sergio, it's not natural for you to do this." Ricardo turned his head and complained.

"Sorry," Ramos said blankly, "We are enemies until the end of the game, Ricardo. After we win the championship, I will buy you a drink and apologize."

Licado smiled and said, "Don't worry, you don't have to invite me to drink. I must be the one to treat you. After I get the Hercules Cup, I can allow you to touch it and take a photo with me."

Ramos snorted vigorously, "When we take the Hercules Cup back, I can touch it as I want, maybe I will touch the Hercules Cup and masturbate."

"It's really delicious," Ricardo smacked his lips, "It's a pity you're just dreaming."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly turned around and ran away,

Ramos was 0.5 seconds slower before recovering. This 0.5 seconds was enough for Riccardo to run several meters.

After receiving Kaka's pass, Ricardo made a gesture to cut inside, which affected Ramos' judgment, but then dribbled the ball down and sent a half-high ball into the penalty area.

Ronaldo barely kicked in the entanglement with Pique, and the ball hit Pique's leg and flew out of the baseline.

Ronaldo shook his head dissatisfied. He was dissatisfied with his performance.

If it was 10 years ago, he could be said to be 100% sure to score this kind of opportunity.

Perhaps, it's time to retire, leave the world with a beautiful back, don't leave an embarrassing one.

Bosque was very dissatisfied with Ramos' defensive error, and rushed to the sidelines to shout a few words. However, because Ricardo was also proficient in Spanish, he didn't go into too much detail, and left it to Ramos to comprehend it himself.

Spain attacked. After a short goal-kick, they advanced layer upon layer and ended up wide, where Capdevila earned a corner by hitting Maicon when he tried to cross.

Xavi and Iniesta took a tactical corner kick, Iniesta gave the ball to Xavi Alonso, Xavi Alonso moved to the back point with a big foot, Villa threw away the defender and volleyed from a small angle Shot hits the side netting.

Cesar was very dissatisfied with the lack of people on the defensive line. He clapped his gloves and shouted, reminding the defenders to pay attention to the dangerous elements of the opponent and not to give Villa a chance to shoot calmly.

Villa is also a world-class striker. Although his shooting skills are not as good as Ronaldo's, he can still score goals given him a few chances.

Brazil attacked and, after being pressed by Spain, had to pass the ball back to Thiago Silva, who drove forward.

Kicking off the ball with a big foot means giving up control and fighting for one-half of the chance. Originally, the Brazilian team was never willing to do this, but Spain's pressing was too fierce, and they had to do so.

Fortunately, Ricciardo, Ronaldo, and Kaka all have strong personal abilities, and can turn this long pass, which is not a big threat, into an opportunity.

Ricardo jumped high, headed the ball ahead of Ramos, and immediately turned around to chase the ball after landing. His speed was too fast, and he easily overtook Ramos to take the ball and continued to the bottom. Seeing that he was about to cross, Puyol ran a fierce tackle from the rear side and brought him down.

The referee Webb ran over and showed Puyol a yellow card.

Ignoring Riccardo who was rolling on the ground in pain, Puyol shouted at Ramos: "He is no longer your teammate! Now you are enemies! How long are you going to show mercy? Look carefully, this That's called defense!"

Ramos pursed his lips tightly, clenched his fists tightly, and said after a while: "I don't need the Barcelona people to teach me how to play football."

Puyol yelled back: "Then do your job well, and don't let Ricardo run wild in your territory!"

Ramos was speechless. But I was thinking in my heart, come and try if you are riding a horse? You will bully old men like Ronaldo, you try to defend Ricardo!

It took Licado a long time to stand up, and with the support of the team doctor, he went to the sideline to receive short-term treatment. Puyol kicked too hard, and his calf swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Pay attention to protecting yourself," Dunga said with a frown, "Even if you are going to get injured and leave the field, you have to get one of them for me when you leave the field!"

Dunga's words are a bit unreasonable, but this is the World Cup final, and Ricardo fully understands it.

"I won't leave the field injured, even if I break my leg, I will score a goal!" Ricardo grinned.
