Chapter 38 Building a Blade Midfielder

The league is progressing triumphantly. Mourinho's Porto team has been unbeaten in seven rounds in the Portuguese Super League. Now they can only expect Benfica to be a sniper. However, Villarinho and his little Tony seem to have no confidence to win These Portos.

But the good results in the league does not mean that the Porto team's European results will also be very good. It is an unfamiliar field, and no one will bow their heads easily. In the knockout round of the UEFA Cup, the Porto team encountered a big trouble .

Dennis Nisbon, when the Porto players saw this name for the first time, at least half of the evil guys associated the sponsor of this team with the Jasbon branch in Turkey. What the hell is this name? It feels a bit convoluted to read.

But people who often play against Turkish teams will not be surprised, because this country is like this. At least one-third of their weird team names have Shibang behind them. If there is Jisbang you Don't feel weird either.

But it was this team that looked like it was sponsored by the Jissbon branch that taught Porto a lesson. They warned these Portuguese with their strong style of play that the hell in Turkey is not so easy to come. pay the price.

The horrible atmosphere of the stadium had already made the Porto team enjoy what is called restless sleep and eating before the game. The hotel they stayed in never stopped. Those crazy fans made noise all night, and they didn't intend to let these Portuguese have a good rest.

And the result of the game is even more unacceptable, at least for these Porto people who have been used to winning recently, because they never thought that they could stumble on this unknown team.

1:2, no matter whether Mourinho is willing to accept such an ending, he must swallow this bitter pill.In the past eight games, the team he led was scored twice by the opponent for the second time. Regardless of whether it was at the opponent's home court or not, Mourinho did not want to lose!

But the final result has told him, whether you like it or not, this damn result cannot be changed. At least in the first round, the Porto team can only reap one defeat. Perhaps this is a lesson that will come sooner or later.

In fact, the Porto team did not have a bad start. They knocked on the opponent's goal in the 30th minute of the first half. The assist sent by Deco accurately found Dalley who was hovering near the opponent's penalty area.

The Brazilian used his dexterous movement to sway away the marking of the opponent's two central defenders. At the top of the arc in the penalty area, there was enough space for him to kick in. A beautiful shot roared in. Into the lower left corner, so that the opponent's goalkeeper beyond reach.

The Porto team kept this score until the halftime break. They attacked the locker room with a score of 1:0. Everyone seems to have entered their most familiar winning pattern, including Mourinho. So tight.

But all this changed fatally at the beginning of the second half. At the beginning of the second half, the left back Valente missed the opponent's forward with a careless defense. In desperation, he could only choose a tactical foul.

But this stupid foul is already his second dangerous action. He had already received a yellow card before that, and the referee would not give him any chance to defend himself. The second yellow card was directly attached to Valente's face. superior.

Two yellows turned into one red, and the referee Meiyu listened to any explanation, because he had given a light enough penalty for such a foul. Even if Valente had no yellow card, he would have sent him off with a red card. The Porto team could only do so at this time Facing the situation of ten people facing each other.

"Stupid foul!" Mourinho knew the worst outcome at the moment when Valente stretched out his foot. This was at the home court of the Turks. He couldn't expect the referee to make a penalty for Porto. What's more, the foul was impeccable.

With one less full-back, Porto's left-back has completely become the main target of the opponent's attack. Pexito, who came off the bench, really lived up to his name. Damn, he has completely become the one who accompany the guests on the field. It has become a luxury for him to make at least one defensive steal.

The opening of the city gate at the full-back here puts too much pressure on the Porto team. Even Maniche needs to withdraw from the position of the left midfielder to help his left defender defend, but the result is that the Porto team immediately lacks a player. Attack from the side.

Mourinho's tactic has always been to fly both sides together, but now Maniche can only be locked in the backcourt. The lonely right midfielder Alenichev can't support the main attack by himself. Task, the only Porto team that can put pressure on the opponent in the frontcourt is Deco.

But the fixed offense on the center and right has already prepared the Turks. They have shifted most of their defensive focus to this side. As for the offense, they have finally slowed down after being suppressed for half the time.

Amidst the crazily shouting of nearly 4 Turks in the entire stadium, these guys who used to fight around with machetes in history finally began to show their most ferocious faces. Mad attack.

Porto's defensive line is very strong, but facing such a fierce attacking momentum, coupled with the sluggish performance of their left back, they finally collapsed after 20 minutes of death, and the opponent tore enough from their wing space.

A pass from the bottom and a slanted thrust from the ribs, the "Jessbon" team caught the defensive loopholes of the Porto team in both attacks. Although Baia tried his best to stretch his body, he is not God after all, and football still wears it. Passed his ten fingers.

2:1, the ferocity of the Turks received the best results. Mourinho slapped the water bottle in his hand on the ground vigorously on the sidelines, but this did not bring any beneficial effects to the team, except for letting the players on the field Apart from the team members getting impatient, all he can do is probably to vent his emotions.

The Porto team once tried to counterattack in the game, but the disconnection of the center and frontcourt made it all come to naught. Deco fell into the siege of the opponent. No matter how calm his mind was, he could not save Porto's defeat.

Mourinho failed to continue the team's unbeaten record. He tried hard to take a point from Turkey, but in the end, he could only leave in disappointment and walked on amidst the ridicule of his opponents. Bus, this night is bitter for the Porto team.

"It's nothing, it's just a game, and we still have a chance. At least now Porto still has an away goal. Let's see you in Portugal. That's our territory." Although Mourinho lost the game, he The tough attitude remains unchanged.

And he believes that what he said will definitely come true, it doesn't matter if you lose here, we will settle the score when we return to Portugal!Didn't we still not fight in the second round? We still have a chance for revenge!

However, in the next game, Porto is destined to lose an absolute main player in defense. In addition, if Porto wants to advance, they must choose to take the initiative to attack in the game, but how to break the opponent's defense, these problems are troubled on the way back to Portugal With Mourinho.

"It is difficult for Deco to take advantage of these strong Turks, and the organization of the midfield often shows a kind of stability, but lacks a certain amount of creativity." Mourinho is very clear about the current situation of the Porto team. fault.

Deco is not easy to use. This guy’s stable performance and composure may be the sharpest weapon of the Porto team. Even Mourinho has said that at this stage, Deco can decide many things on the court, including victory.

20 goals in 7 games, such an efficiency is not low for a midfielder. It can be said that when Dalley and Kapushu are unable to start the situation, it is Deco who often breaks the deadlock. Shooting kung fu and free kicks are a big weapon for Porto.

The most important thing is that Deco seldom makes mistakes on the field. He can calmly handle any pass, with an average pass success rate of more than 80% per game. Not everyone can do it, let alone a player who often relies on passing Playmaker with the ball tearing through the opponent's defense.

But Mourinho clearly knows that Deco has a problem on the court, and that is his biggest advantage, stability.The Brazilian is sometimes too steady.

Stable enough to make people heinous, Deco is more like a German. He rarely improvises on the court. He is best at passing the ball in a regular manner, but this kind of stability is sometimes conservative. A sort of.

As a midfielder, Deco is a bit too stable, and his creativity is a bit sluggish. Maybe in the Portuguese Super League, Deco's steady approach can make the team a lot less pressure on defense .

And his personal ability can find loopholes in weak opponents and kill them with one blow, so all of this seems to be indisputable. After all, if he wins the game, no one will say that he is not good. Stability is also an advantage most of the time. .

But in the European arena, this stability will make the Porto team less creative in the midfield, just like the game that just ended.Although Porto's goal also relied on Deco's accurate delivery.

But from receiving the ball to finishing the shot, Dalley relied more on his own personal skills. The chance of the shot was not pulled away by Deco's passing route. The striker's personal ability played the most important role at this time. role, not Deco's pass.

Now Mourinho needs to let the Porto team show his creativity in the European arena. If he wants to go further, he must let the Porto team make changes, and the chemical reaction is very strong.

midfield!Mourinho put his gaze completely on the computer notebook in his hand, which has the names of all Porto midfielders on it. Mourinho needs to hone his sharpest midfielder among these ten or so people offensive line.

He needs creativity, he needs a midfield attack like a blade!Only such a midfielder can gain a foothold in the European arena.

Mourinho was lost in thought on the plane, and no one knew what the result was, including himself. . .
