The first penalty taker for the Portugal team was Deng Kai.
Manchester City too.
Lisbon Sporting too.
Deng Kai's penalty kicks had always been very steady.
But it's been calculated by the media that about forty percent of his penalty kicks were passed to others.
This statistic is quite exaggerated.
It also showed Deng Kai's generosity.
So, this time the penalty kick of course ... couldn't possibly be given to someone else!
After ten seconds.
Cheers erupted at Dragão Stadium.
Portuguese fans sang and danced.
English fans felt as if plunged into an ice cellar.
Deng Kai's penalty shot broke through the goal, scoring twice within fifteen minutes.
Helping the Portugal team to take a two-goal lead over England.
Great Britain... was seemingly doomed!
The sixteenth minute.
Beckham launched a cross from the right wing.
But Veloso was exceptionally brave, and he threw himself forward to block the ball like a machine gun.
