In the last round of the 2014 Brazil World Cup Group G match between China and the United States, although the Chinese team had an absolute advantage, the score has not been opened for a long time. It is easy to see that the head coach Klinsmann has done a lot of preparation work before the game.
A lot of targeted deployments have been made for the Chinese team's offense. In addition, Klinsmann realized that the Chinese team will rotate personnel when they have won two consecutive victories in the group. Therefore, even if it seems a little chaotic in the defense, they always keep the goal.
In addition, Howard, the goalkeeper of the US team, performed extremely well in the first 10 minutes of the first half. He made consecutive key saves, and even made a conditioned reflex save that was called a god's pounce by the on-site commentator.
There was even a time when Aiello and his teammates made wonderful kicks into the penalty area and made an unexpected shot at the penalty spot. Unexpectedly, Howard blocked the ball out of the baseline with his toe.
Ai Luo, who did not score a goal, was full of disbelief. You must know that he was preparing to celebrate the moment he completed the shot...
In the other game played at the same time, the match between Portugal and Ghana also had no change in score. Only by winning can Portugal have a chance to advance, because their goal difference is less than that of the US team.
Although Portugal's opponent Ghana has been eliminated early, the last round of the group stage is not to be missed for them, because they must win in the last round if they lose the promotion to the knockout round, so as to save a little face.
You must know that they entered the quarter-finals in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. If it were not for luck, they would enter the semi-finals with a record.
Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo worked very hard. He was the most diligent player in the entire frontcourt. He kept demanding in the frontcourt, but because of his too big goals, he also became the Portuguese player that the Ghanaian defensive players focused on.
The so-called tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it.
Cristiano Ronaldo's status in world football is second only to Aiello, and he and Messi share the world's second throne, so many Ghanaian players are quite unhappy. The Chinese team that lost to Aiello in the second round is fine. Now the Portuguese team led by the world's second Cristiano Ronaldo also wants to score points?
There are no doors!
The game time passed quickly, and Cristiano Ronaldo gradually showed impatience, and his mentality quickly infected his teammates. The head coach Paul Bento standing on the sidelines saw it most clearly.
But before he gave a reminder, the Ghana team suddenly cut off Nani's short pass to Moutinho in the backcourt and launched a quick counterattack.
The continuous and fast passing of the ball soon reached Captain Jian's feet. Thinking of the aggrieved loss to Ai Luo's Chinese team in the last round, he held back his energy.
Relying on this strength, Ji'an took the ball straight to Huanglong. Facing Pepe's tackle at the front of the penalty area, he calmly dunked to the left.
Ghana leads Portugal 1-0.
※※※
If the game ends according to this result, the team that advances must be the US team.
It was under this adversity that Cristiano Ronaldo broke out!
Just 3 minutes after Gian's goal, Cristiano Ronaldo received a pass from Moutinho on the left side of the attack and swung the ball to the right. After shaking a little space, he chose to shoot 35 meters away from the goal.
Cristiano Ronaldo's shot was so powerful that Ghana's goalkeeper Douda didn't even have time to make a save before seeing the ball bounce into the top right corner of the goal.
Suddenly, the entire stadium was silenced for half a second because of Cristiano Ronaldo's goal.
But half a second later, the entire stadium was boiling...
Portugal fans seem to see a chance for their supporters to qualify.
Watching Cristiano Ronaldo's excellent form, Portugal fans know that promotion is only a matter of time.
Indeed, although the Ghana team stepped up their defensive density in the rest of the first half, there was still no way to hinder Cristiano Ronaldo's individual performance.
In the last half minute of stoppage time in the first half, Moutinho took a corner kick. Cristiano Ronaldo leaped high and overwhelmed Gian and Ayew and smashed the ball to the lower left corner of the goal. Ghanaian goalkeeper Doda did not watch the football enter the net this time.
But it's not much different, it's too late for him to make a reflexive save...
Coincidentally, in another stadium where China and the United States were playing, the Chinese team also scored a goal. I don’t know if Ai Luo felt that Cristiano Ronaldo’s performance was outstanding.
It just so happened that American goalkeeper Howard's vision was disturbed by the defensive players. By the time he made a save, it was too late. The football almost rolled into the goal against the inner edge of the right post...
As the goal happened, the commentator He Wei shouted hysterically: "Finally a goal! In the first half, Howard was really a veritable goalkeeper. His high jumps and low blocks kept the goal clean, but...he is not a real goalkeeper. Our captain Ai Luo used a clever kick from the front of the penalty area to send the ball into the goal, beautiful!!"
Immediately afterwards, his partner Xu Yang said: "Congratulations to Aiello, this is his sixth goal in this World Cup. He once again surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo who just scored a goal, and became the top scorer list!"

In the two group games of Group G, although the leading side has only one goal advantage, forward-looking fans know that it is only a matter of time before the Chinese team and the Portuguese team defeat their respective opponents.
In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. The leading Chinese team and the Portuguese team respectively expanded their scores in the second half. Gao Lin and Nani, who made contributions to the team, came off the bench respectively.
In the end, China defeated the United States 2:0, Portugal defeated Ghana 3:1, and they respectively came to the fore in Group G.
At the end of the game, captain Cristiano Ronaldo, who led the Portuguese Jedi counterattack and got a chance to qualify, became the focus of media reporters. It was his two goals that helped the team overtake the score, and Nani's goal to expand the score was also caused by his cross after the breakthrough.
There is no doubt that Cristiano Ronaldo is Portugal's savior.
And leading the team to qualify, Cristiano Ronaldo's prestige in Portugal has also increased as Portugal stands out in the group, and there is even a tendency to become the number one star in Portuguese history...
