Portugal has managed to lock up early qualification with two consecutive victories in European tournaments. The 41-year old Bee continues to write European soccer history, setting a new record for oldest player with his extraordinary performances. In today's match, he made three clearances in just 10 seconds, and team leader Martinez praised his "soccer genes", saying that "money can't buy this"!
Compared to today's game, our defense in official matches is as solid as Tarzan. In our opening match against the Czech Republic, we had a whopping 11 chances to win the game. And in this game, we had a game high of 7 clearances, plus 20 sublime parries that managed to disrupt our opponents' one-touch breakthroughs. Portugal's masterful defense late in the game managed to fend off Turkey's corner kick attacks, and Bibi even showed amazing speed and agility by stealing three consecutive passes from our opponents in just 10 seconds.
After the match, Portugal's leader Martinez said with emotion, "Bibi is a model for professional players. They are fully committed and play for soccer 24 hours a day. Most players may only spend two hours preparing for a match, but Bibi's life is so tightly detailed that his physical condition and talent cannot be bought by money!"
