On July 5, the second game of the semi-final will be held, and France will compete with Portugal for another final qualification. The media expressed their opinions before the game. German Photo News said: Although France and Portugal have been fighting for 80 years, the two teams have never met in the World Cup.

The only two matches between France and Portuguese teams in the World Championships. All of these two matches appeared in the European Cup semi-finals. In the end, the Frenchman won the last one-goal victory and won the European Cup that year. Now the two teams met in the World Cup semi-finals. I wonder if the French can continue their good luck in the European Cup.

Now, the cycle of fate has allowed the two teams to meet in the World Cup semi-finals. Although the three goal-scoring players in the 2000 European Cup are still in their respective teams, their situations are completely different. Zidane and Henry's main position is unshakable, and Gomez has become a bench player that cannot be beaten by Portugal.

Tonight's game will be a competition between two veterans. Zidane and Figo both won the World Footballer, and they are the driving force for the team's offense. From another perspective, whoever performs better tonight will lead the team to the final victory.

Originally, there was another most brilliant highlight tonight, that is the competition between Don and Ronaldo. Both of them are players that Pele is optimistic about. Don and Ronaldo are both participating in the World Cup for the first time, and Don is even more amazing. In the four games he participated in, he has scored an astonishing seven goals and ranked first in the scorer list. Ronaldo has also conquered many fans through his performance.

The two young men have become the number one striker of their respective teams. Ronaldo was still regretting yesterday: "Tang cannot play, this will be the biggest loss in this game!"

The British Daily Mail said: The Best Newcomer is about to be released, and Don is the number one hottest. However, this Milan star, who is about to become the Best Newcomer of this World Cup, now has to sit in a wheelchair and watch his teammates compete with his opponents. For a strong character like Don, this is the most painful thing in the world.

Scolari threatened: "We will destroy France and enter the finals!" France eliminated Brazil in the quarter-finals, as a Brazilian. Scolari had 10,000 reasons to help Brazil avenge. Toulam counterattacked Scolari and said: "We can defeat Brazil and also defeat Portugal!"

Domeneck said: "Our form has returned to its peak and no one can stop us." He added: "Our team has begun to adapt to the situation without Don on the court. Henry will help us score. He scored goals when he eliminated Spain."

The title of the team newspaper is: The French team is ready to enter the finals!

They said in the article: Zidane is ready, and Henry is ready. They all said in front of the media that they would let Don watch the game in a wheelchair safely. Previously, the French team fought for Zidane, and they were willing to play one more game for Zidane. Now they have another motivation - fight for Don!

Milan Sports said: Tonight's game will determine Italy's opponent in the final. Italy hopes to compete with Portugal for the final championship, but Zidane may not agree. Tonight's semi-final, France has to adapt to the game without Don.

Previously, Don saved the French team many times at the critical moment, but lacked the sharpest weapon. The French team must rely on the wonderful performance of Zidane and Henry. Judging from the previous few games, besides Don, the one who scored the most goals was Henry. This Arsenal striker who was in his year of playing had performed amazingly this season and led Arsenal to the Champions League final.

Henry must bear the burden of scoring tonight. Of course, Zidane's free kick and Ribery's breakthrough may also break through Portugal's goal. If the French team can show the same state as Brazil, it is very likely to defeat Portugal.

What Portugal can rely on is Ronaldo, Deco and Figo. This is Figo's last World Cup, and he will not miss any opportunity. He will lead his team to the finals. Ronaldo will not let Tang Zhuanmei. He once said in front of the media: "This World Cup will produce a new world champion."

Deco's performance is still stable, adding strength to Portugal's midfield. With his stable performance, the burden on Figo's shoulders has become much lighter.

C Ronaldo will undoubtedly lose in the election for Best Rookie. Don scored seven goals and firmly locked in the best Rookie. Ronaldo will prove himself in the game against the French team that he is not worse than Don. Unfortunately, these two young people who are proud of their bones will miss the opportunity to have a direct conversation in the World Cup.

Perhaps in the future, the world football will be their world. Missing this conversation will undoubtedly disappoint many fans. This is undoubtedly the biggest regret of this game.

French legend Yake encouraged Domeneck before the game: "The French team will regain its glory in 1998!" France crossed the Brazilian mountain and their confidence will reach a new peak. Marklele once said, "Brazil cannot stop France's footsteps. In this world, no one can stop the French team from winning the Hercules Cup!"

Portuguese media cheered for their team, and many media said: "The French team lacked Don and at least half of its attack power. Tonight is the best opportunity for Portugal to defeat France."

They gave Scolari: "If Zidane is frozen, the French team will lack motivation. Without Don, if Zidane is frozen, the French team will no longer be a strong team!"

To encourage Ronaldo to score tonight, they said: "Ronaldo doesn't have to care about the title of the best rookie, nor does he have to care about the Golden Boot Award in the World Cup. Using goals to defeat the French team is more important than these. Help the team advance to the finals, you will become the most shining star and will lead the world football!"

...

At 3:00 p.m. on July 5, Tang Jue and Domeneck had a half-hour call. Domeneck told Don Jue: "For your health, I will not put you on the starting list." Tang Jue was a little disappointed. Domeneck explained: "You should understand me. If we make the finals, that is when you shine."

"If the team can't break the deadlock, I will change you to the game at the right time. You don't have to worry about this. Our goal is the final champion, and I don't want you to be hurt before the final!"

When Tang Jue was used to charging on the court, he felt a sense of loss. Xiao Feifei began to persuade him: "Master, you didn't train with your teammates before the game, you felt strange to them. In addition, you haven't trained for four days, which has a great impact on your condition."

"This is the foundation of Domeneck's decision, and you should understand that."

Tang Jue thought about it and felt that what Xiao Feifei said made sense. Domeneck was not just a false reputation when he could sit in the position of head coach of the French team. It was just that Zidane was too strong, which made him unable to show his fists many times.

Alice came back from outside the door and looked at Tang Jue and asked, "Dear, look at your heart, have you encountered any problems?" Tang Jue hugged her in his arms and said softly, "I just called the coach. He said he didn't see me arranged on the starting list."

Alice blinked and smiled and said, "This is a good thing!"

Tang Jue was stunned. Alice said again: "If you are not the starter, you will not be hurt by others. Do you know that every time you fall on the grass and roll in pain, my heart will be twisted." Tang Jue was about to speak, but Alice stretched out her slender fingers and placed them on his mouth.

"You are a superhero, I know you want to play. That's your stage. I also know that many people want to see you on the field, and I also want to see you on the field. But compared to your body, I would rather you be healthy and stand in front of me."

Tang Jue shrugged and thought to himself: OK, I know you are thinking about me. Forget it, just substitute.

...

At this time, Domeneke was preparing for a pre-match meeting, and his ideas needed to be clarified and his strategy needed to be clear. The defensive counterattack tactics in the last game against Brazil were successful. When discussing tactics with Zidane last night, the two also believed that this strategy should be adopted when playing against Portugal. They did not seek control rates and focused more on offensive efficiency. Through efficient offensive quality, they took the initiative in the game in their own hands.

Before the game, media reported that Scolari was training for a penalty kick. Zidane also suggested that Domeneck add this training in training content. Domeneck asked with a smile: "Do you don't have the confidence to defeat the opponent in regular games?"

Zidane shook his head and said, "Of course there is confidence, but it is necessary to make more preparations. In the knockout stage, there are already three games that have been decided by penalty kicks. We must consider tomorrow night's game, and this may happen again."

Domeneck shook his head and said firmly: "We will definitely not drag the game into a penalty kick!"

Zidane was infected by Domeneck's words. Since you are so confident, what else can I insist on? But where does your confidence come from? Can Henry score a goal if Don is absent? Or do you have to rely on my free kick?

According to the current performance of French defenders, Zidane would not worry about their problems. The only thing he was worried about was the striker. If he wanted to win, he had to break through the opponent's goal. However, the player with the best goal efficiency in the team was free of battle cards.

Based on this thinking, Zidane proposed a recommendation for training penalty kicks. Now Domeneck has shown rare confidence. Zidane gave up his worries and chose to believe him.

After thinking about the complete team strategy, Domeneck was evaluating the impact of Marclayle's absence on the team's defense. One-back midfielder or two-back midfielder became his tangled. Moreover, if a single-back midfielder is arranged, the team can add an aggressive midfielder, which will increase the team's attack power to make up for the impact of Tang Jue's absence. With Vieira's ability, if he does not participate in the offense, the single-back midfielder can also play a role.

But if Vieri is under too much pressure, will he have problems?

Double midfielders will inevitably reduce Vieira's pressure and give him the opportunity to participate in the offense. It will also increase the team's attack power.

"Hey! Damn it, if you weren't injured, how could I worry about this issue?" Domeneck shook his head and cursed at the air. He didn't believe that Tang Jue could still maintain a good state after four days of training. The so-called team wants to create heroes, Domeneck is creating the hero Tang Jue.

What he wants to create is a superhero, who can defeat his opponent as long as he is on the court. If he creates such a hero, as long as he appears in the game, it will put great psychological pressure on the opponent's players and increase his teammates' belief in winning.

Since Tang Jue joined the French team, he has never lost the game he has participated in. Domeneck doesn't want to break this record and wants the record to continue. This is extremely important for the post-Zidane era. After leaving Zidane, the French team needs another superhero!
