The game has not yet started, and the fans are eating snacks, drinking drinks and chatting. E』┡ Fiction Ww』W. 1XIAOSHUO. com
Monkey looked at the fat fan group behind him and said to Yu Debao: It's the Chinese New Year, and the fan group is not half of what it used to be in such a big fight.
Yu Debao was not able to enter the competition squad today, but he still came to Porto. Apart from watching the competition, he spent the Spring Festival with Gao Xiaodong, Hou Zi and others.
Yu Debao said: Most of them are at home waiting to watch TV.
Monkey said: It's good to be able to support Xiaodong in front of the TV. I remember that one year the national football team also had a Chinese New Year's Eve game. CCTV repeatedly said that fans might be confused about which to watch between the Spring Festival Gala and the national football game. In fact, they are too pretentious. Passionate, fans don't watch any of them.
Chen Qiang said with a smile: The Spring Festival Gala is the same as the national football team. It is becoming more and more unwatchable. It used to be that the Spring Festival Gala was supported by Lao Zhao's sketches, and now Lao Zhao can only cook cold rice.
Monkey said: The national football team is still looking for Xiaodong to support it. Look at the five local coaches who are running for the national football coach. In their campaign plans, they all agreed to build a team with Xiaodong as the core, regardless of whether Xiaodong is willing to join or not.
Speaking of this, Chen Qiang's face was a little ugly, and he said: nnd, originally this was Gao Bo's idea, hoping to use Xiaodong to boost the popularity of the national football team, but I didn't expect the other four campaign coaches to do the same thing, saying that they would use Xiaodong as the leader. Core building.
Xiao Le said: That's not bad. No matter who becomes the head coach of the national team, Xiao Dong can be selected.
Monkey said: Miss Xiaole, in our country of Hua, who can be selected for the national team is not decided by the head coach alone.
Chen Qiang said: Yes, Xiaodong and the Football Association have conflicts, because the position of the chairman has not yet been determined, and the voices of fans calling for Xiaodong to join the national team are getting stronger and stronger, and the vice-chairmen of the various majors have acquiesced in Xiaodong's entry into the national team. It’s funny, but when the five candidate local coaches did this, I heard that people from the Football Association were very angry, thinking that Xiaodong was forcing the palace.”
Monkey sighed: I didn't expect it to turn out like this. Is the chairman of the Football Association confirmed now, Mr. Chen?
Chen Qiang said: Seventy-eight out of ten are Vice Chairman Yang, and it is estimated that the announcement will be made in early February.
At this time, the players from both sides came out of the locker room, and there was a tsunami-like shout at the scene, and the words on the other side could not be heard clearly, so Hou Zi and Chen Qiang cheered together with the fans.
After the cheers died down,
The on-site commentator began to introduce the lineups of the two sides, and focused on introducing the rookie Falcao to the fans, ...the Colombian tiger is also here. He can be regarded as the strongest rookie in Portugal. He came to Porto to play six games and scored 6 goals. One goal, the efficiency is higher than that of Gao Xiaodong in Rexos's time, Sporting Lisbon will definitely guard against him today, let's see if the tiger can make another attack!
field
After Porto and Sporting Lisbon exchanged their team flags and logos, the game finally started with the referee's whistle.
Porto, who are playing at home, hope to get all their contributions in the first battle. Today, they set up a 433 attacking formation, with Hulk, Falcao and Lisandro playing forwards, Gao Xiaodong, Meireles and Fernando playing midfielders. Launched a fierce attack on Sporting Lisbon.
Although Sporting Lisbon also came to the Dragon Stadium with the purpose of winning, they still have a clear understanding of the strength comparison between the two sides. Bento put up a stable formation of 442, fighting hard in the midfield, trying to win from the midfield. Attack the Porto penalty area after stealing, because this is the easiest way to attack.
After the opening, the two sides launched a fierce competition in the midfield, and everyone hoped to open the opponent's goal first.
Although Porto's three strikers are physically and technically strong, Sporting Lisbon's players are very targeted in their defense. In addition to one-on-one marking, there are also people ready to help defend at any time.
The defense against Gao Xiaodong was even tighter. Except for Veloso's special marking, everyone else paid attention to cutting off Gao Xiaodong's passing lines forward and to both sides, forcing Gao Xiaodong to pass back.
In addition to being more targeted in defense, Sporting Lisbon is also very decisive in fouling. As long as Porto poses a threat, they will foul immediately. They would rather give Porto a free kick than let Porto start their offense.
Obviously. Porto, which is going smoothly, is not as prepared for this game and determined to win this game as the away game Sporting Lisbon. Their strength is a little higher than Sporting Lisbon. On the scene and in terms of statistics, they do not have the upper hand at all.
The more serious Ferreira's face was on the sidelines, he knew that this game would definitely be a fierce battle, but now it seems that he still underestimated the opponent's determination.
Today Hulk and Falcao played as wingers, but Falcao prefers the position of the center forward close to the penalty area. He often habitually runs to the center. He often overlaps with Lisandro who plays in the center. The wing left a gap for the opponent.
When playing against weak teams, Falcao often has such a situation, but the opponent's pass, reception and transfer of the ball are slow, and it is difficult to seize Porto's gap, but Sporting Lisbon is the top team in Portugal. Give them Such an opportunity is fatal.
In the 35th minute of the game, Sporting Lisbon intercepted Hulk's cross pass at the front of the penalty area. Their left back Abel had already advanced when Falcao went to the center, and immediately moved to ask for the ball.
Veloso passed the ball to Vukcevic before Gao Xiaodong made a lunge, and Vukcevic passed Abel diagonally.
Sporting Lisbon midfielder Moutinho was also well prepared, he quickly pulled the side, and Albert stormed Porto's right.
At this moment, it was too late for Falcao to return to the defense, and Porto right back Sapruna could only face the attack of Abel and Moutinho alone.
Sapruna was originally a tall central defender, slow in speed, slow in turning around, and then he was caught by two people, and he was passed clean in an instant. Moutinho rushed into the penalty area along the baseline and faced Alves He assisted the defense and passed the ball back to the front of the penalty area. At this moment, the full-back Abel had already crossed to the front of the penalty area.
Helton had already blocked the near corner, but he didn't expect the shot to fly to the far corner. He could only stand there and watch the ball enter the net.
1:o
Sporting Lisbon took the lead.
The fiery Dragon Stadium fell silent in an instant, as if God had poured a huge basin of cold water on his head. .
Sporting Lisbon began to celebrate wildly, and it felt wonderful to be able to score in the stadium of the arch-enemy.
Sporting Lisbon coach Paulo Bento excitedly ran along the side of the field for more than ten meters, at this moment he saw the dawn of victory.
Porto head coach Ferreira's face darkened instantly. Conceding the ball first is very fatal in a strong dialogue. The three forwards in front are not very good defensive players. Difficult to fight.
Ferreira knows that Falcao likes to run in the middle. As an old coach who has been coaching for decades, he knows that Falcao is suitable to play as a center after a week, but Lisandro has always been the first choice for a center. For one candidate, Falcao played as a center when he first arrived, and let Lisandro play as a winger. Lisandro is definitely not willing, so Ferreira can only let Falcao play as a winger.
Judging from the previous games, the effect is not bad. You can score goals when you run to the middle, and you can keep up with the defense. I didn't expect to face a strong enemy for the first time, and the opponent caught this gap.
Porto's on-site commentator severely criticized Porto's performance: From the beginning to now, Porto has not played resolutely, fiercely enough, and has not gone all out. The players just seem to work hard and seem to want to win, while the opponent But playing him as a knockout match, the result will definitely be different... In addition, Falcao is not an all-around player like Gao Xiaodong. Play the original 4312 formation in the double striker. If the three strikers are not in good condition, let whoever is on the bench,...
Whoever is not in good form can be used as a substitute. The commentator said so, and the fans also thought so, but they all forgot that Porto's three strikers performed very well in front of them. It seems a waste to use anyone as a substitute, so Ferreira Only then did the lineup of three forwards be formed.
