Violante pondered for a moment and then nodded, "We can give it a try. Ronaldo, Almeida, Quaresma, Viana, come over here, I…"

The coaching staff then designed a specialized header strategy.

They asked Viana and Quaresma to attempt more crosses, primarily aiming for Almeida as the target.

Almeida led the attack.

As Almeida tangled with the opposition, Ronaldo proactively duplicated his runs, creating dual threats!

But as soon as the second half started, Poland changed their defensive strategy in advance.

They still parked the bus, but they also assigned someone to closely mark who they believed to be the biggest threat – Quaresma.

Quaresma struggled to receive the football.
