The big play goes on and on! Portugal is desperate for revenge and has three points, and Uruguay cannot afford to miss the full effort
At 3:00 Beijing time on November 29, the second round of the World Cup will usher in the final match. Although it was the last match of the second round, the strength of both sides was good. Moreover, in the past games, the two teams have had many grudges. Therefore, this match is not only a simple group stage, but also a battle for revenge! However, now in terms of strength, the Portuguese team is obviously slightly better, which makes the team undoubtedly better in terms of fighting spirit and mentality. However, in order to take the initiative in Uruguay's own hands, the team will not easily choose to give up. Therefore, this game, the big war is on the verge.
In the first round, Portugal played well against Ghana. Whether it is B Fei in the midfield, or Felix, Ronaldo and others in the striker, they have shown good game form. However, before the match against Uruguay, the Portuguese team had bad news. Danilo Pereira, the team's main centre-back in the previous round, suffered an injury in training and missed the match against Uruguay. Despite Danilo Pereira's mediocre play at centre-back, it was still a huge blow for Portugal.
You know, in the back line, the Portuguese team has no reliable young central defenders except for Ruben Dias. The only one who can take on the big responsibility is the veteran Pepe. However, against a strong team like Uruguay, whether Pepe's fitness can support him through a high-intensity game of 90 points is obviously a huge question mark. Considering this situation, Portugal may have to make targeted deployments on the defensive end. At least on Pepe's side, the team needs to be good at supporting and blocking. Therefore, in this game, Portugal, which has the advantage of points, may be based on stability.
Seeing Portugal suffer a major injury, Uruguay is naturally more eager to take all three points. However, in the first round, against the South Korean team, Uruguay's forward line has rarely played, even if Portugal now has hidden dangers in the defensive end, but Uruguay wants to break through the opponent's door, it is obviously not an easy task. What's more, in the forward line, Uruguay, in addition to the young Núñez, can only rely on veteran Suarez and Cavani. However, the form that these two veterans showed in the first leg was not very reassuring. If in attack, Uruguay cannot pose too much of a threat, then what awaits the team may be a slow death.
Although from the perspective of the qualification situation, even if Uruguay loses this game, the team still has a glimmer of life, but when the team wants to qualify, it will have to look at the faces of others! What's more, judging from the performance in the first round, Ghana is not the soft persimmon imagined. To be on the safe side, Uruguay still have to give it its all and strive to be undefeated in this match. Of course, the best outcome is for the team to seize the opportunity to beat Portugal and take the initiative into their own hands. With such intentions, Uruguay may make a lot of changes in attack.
Although Portugal is in the back line, the team has a lot of hidden dangers, in the central midfield, the team's strength and condition are obviously slightly better than Uruguay. Therefore, if Portugal wants to get three points, it may have to make a big fuss on the offensive end, trying to replace the defense with attack and suppress Uruguay's attack. Of course, the team must also seize the opportunity, after all, Uruguay is bound to make targeted deployments on the defensive end. Portugal should take advantage of the limited opportunities. It can be said that in this game, both sides have a good chance to defeat their opponents. Given this situation, the final result of this match may be a handshake between the two teams, or Portugal drawing Uruguay.
