Chapter 76

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"113 minutes, the game is over!!!!!!"

"Sudong broke Maritimo's goal again and completely killed the game!"

"It was an absolutely unbelievable sudden death."

"Maritimo's defense made a mistake in coordination. Su Dong's back was very fast. Although Pepe chased all the way back, he still failed to grab a favorable position and was forced to resort to fouls."

"But before Su Dong fell to the ground, he kicked a kick."

"Maritimo's goalkeeper Nelson made a mistake. He didn't judge the best time to attack."

"This is understandable, after all, this is already the second half of overtime."

The entire Alvalade Stadium once again turned into a vast ocean.

Fifty thousand Sporting Lisbon fans frantically rushed out of their seats, all shouting Su Dong's name hoarsely.

They can't describe their mood at this moment, they can only vent their inner excitement and excitement by shouting frantically.

The equalizer in the final stage of the regular game, and the lore in the last moment of overtime.

Is there a more important and more crucial goal than this?
"Su Dong is really the key man for Sporting Lisbon."

"So far, of the four goals, one is more critical than the other, and one is more important than the other."

"We can no longer use words to describe Su Dong's performance tonight."

"Under the strict marking of the opponent's central defender Pepe, Su Dong didn't perform very well after coming off the bench, but when Pepe, the difficult Brazilian central defender, got a yellow card and was transferred away from Su Dong, Soarez couldn't stop Su Dong at all."

"Two goals are the perfect end to Su Dong's performance tonight."

Su Dong was in the shape of a font, lying on the grass of the Alvalade Stadium.

He is really exhausted!

But the whole person, the whole heart, is incomparably satisfied.

He suddenly realized that what Luis Suarez had said to him earlier was true.

Everyone doubts themselves, and even doubts themselves all the time.

But the purpose of doubt is not to deny, but to determine.

Doubt is the only way to pursue certainty!
Only after a lot of skepticism can one get the real gold.

At this moment, lying in the Alvalade Stadium, hovering in the whirlpool of noise created by the Sporting Lisbon fans, Su Dong's mind was clearer than ever.

From now on, he will still doubt himself as before, but he will never deny himself again.

"This kid is really surprising!"

Looking at the Sporting Lisbon players celebrating crazily on the field, and Su Dong lying on the grass, Pontes was filled with emotion, because he couldn't believe that this was the young boy he didn't have much hope for at the beginning.

Last summer, Su Dong was just a rookie in the youth team of the third-level semi-professional team, who couldn't even play football.

Who would have thought that now he has become the key player in the semi-finals of the Portuguese Cup.

Boloni covered his mouth forcefully, his shoulders twitched slightly, obviously suppressing the excitement in his heart.

At this moment, the Romanian coach should have a kind of horror for the rest of his life.

Even though he had high hopes for Su Dong, even though he had been waiting for Su Dong to create another miracle for him, but when the miracle really came, he probably couldn't believe it, right?
After a long time, Boloni let go, looked at Su Dong on the field with red eyes, nodded and said: "I have begun to believe that he has the ability to play more games in the first team and even take on more responsibilities."

Pontes turned his head to look at Boloni, and nodded slightly.

It is not an easy task to be recognized by Boloni.

But this basically means that as long as Boloni does not leave the team, Su Dong will continue to be reused and cultivated in Sporting Lisbon.

Who made him always come forward at critical moments to save Boloni?
……

"The speed of this kid's improvement is as amazing as the speed he ran out on the day he joined!"

Technical director Aurelio Pereira also praised repeatedly in the stands.

Three games, four goals, one is more critical than one, and one is more important than one.

This is something no one thought of.

Football director Carlos Freitas also felt incredible about this, "Before the season, you told me that Quaresma would surprise everyone this season. As a result, he surprised me in his first game against Porto."

Speaking of this, Freitas smiled and continued: "But in October, Hugo Viana suddenly emerged. He became the main force of the first team in one fell swoop and became the core of the team's midfield playmaker. We were all very surprised."

"During the winter break, your technical team had high hopes for Cristiano Ronaldo, and he did show an astonishing speed of improvement, but what really shocked us and felt incredible was this Chinese kid who had just joined."

Having said that, Carlos Freitas shook his head and smiled wryly as if his whole body had been exhausted, "No matter who it is, I won't believe it. He has saved the team for three consecutive games."

Aurelio nodded repeatedly.

Without Sudong, Sporting Lisbon will fall behind Boavista on the way to the league title.

Without Su Dong, Sporting Lisbon would not be able to beat Maritimo in the semi-finals of the Portuguese Cup.

"Isn't this kid really a genius?" Aurelio suddenly asked amusedly.

After hearing this, Carlos Freitas chuckled, "Whether he was or not at the beginning, anyway, if he progresses at his speed, he will definitely be in the future."

Aurelio Pereira nodded.

Soon, he thought of another thing.

"I think we need to adjust our plans for next season."

Carlos Freitas thought for a while, nodded and said: "Indeed, this group of young players is too surprising. Their growth rate has far exceeded our imagination. We should create a better environment for them and create more opportunities. This is not only good for them, but also for us."

In the division of labor in European football, Sporting Lisbon is simply unable to compete with the four major leagues, especially the upstream teams of the four major leagues. Even many mid- and downstream teams of the four major leagues can easily poach people from Sporting Lisbon.

Therefore, from beginning to end, Sporting Lisbon has positioned itself as a processing factory for young players.

Through youth training, or the introduction of high-quality semi-finished products, after being refined and cultivated, they are sold to the four major leagues at a high price. This is the way for Sporting Lisbon to survive.

In contrast, any championship or honor is secondary to Sporting Lisbon.

…………

With Su Dong's goal, the game is over.

This is the golden ball system.

Sporting Lisbon was celebrating the team's victory from top to bottom, and the fans at the scene cheered hoarsely, while the Maritimo players all drooped their heads and walked off the field in disgrace.

Especially Pepe, who bears the brunt, lost the arrogance during the intermission and was replaced by unwillingness and anger.

Maybe he felt aggrieved, but he lost.

"See? The mad dog has turned into a dead dog!" Ronnie laughed very loudly, making it clear that he wanted to humiliate Pepe.

Surprisingly, the Brazilian central defender heard it, but he didn't even look back, as if he didn't hear it, and continued to move forward.

This bored Ronnie a little.

"Actually, he performed very well." Cruise said from the side.

Su Dong nodded. If it wasn't for the yellow card, if it wasn't for Soares who came to replace Pepe, he might not be able to score the first goal. As for the second goal, he might not have a chance.

He felt that Pepe did have reason to feel unfair about the result of this game, but this was not a personal contest between him and Su Dong, but a duel between the two teams.

He lost, and so did Maritimo!
"His physical fitness is really very good. He doesn't seem to be strong, but his resistance is super strong. I can't hold him at all." Su Dong said with a wry smile.

He feels that his physical fitness still needs to be strengthened.

"The defensive skills and awareness are not enough, and the experience is not enough, but these can be improved slowly. He is only 19 years old."

It can be seen that, as a Brazilian veteran, Andre Cruz is still very optimistic about this compatriot.

"Don't worry, I'll knock him down sooner or later." Ronnie said angrily.

He was still grieving for being knocked down by Pepe during the halftime break. In the second half and overtime, he didn't take advantage of Pepe several times. This made the proud Ronnie very unbalanced.

He always likes to find an opponent for himself, and then work hard to defeat the opponent.

Next, Pepe will have the misfortune to play the role.

……

They defeated the visiting Maritimo [-]-[-] at home, not only the fans were happy, but even the first-team players were very excited.

Overtime was played for more than 20 minutes. Everyone exhausted the last drop of physical energy. In the end, they almost dragged their bodies back to the locker room, but everyone's faces were ecstatic.

Coach Boloni thanked the players for their efforts and also told the players that in another game, Porto defeated Lessos [-]-[-] and entered the final of the Portuguese Cup.

The final time is scheduled for May [-], which is a week after the end of the last round of the Portuguese Super League.

Like previous important Portuguese competitions, the venue for the final was arranged in a small town called Oeiras less than ten kilometers west of Lisbon. This is a wealthy area in Portugal, where many wealthy villas gather.

The Portuguese National Stadium is in the heart of this small town and will be the venue for the Portuguese Cup final this season.

Playing in this place has certain advantages for Sporting Lisbon, which is similar to playing at home.

But under the leadership of Mourinho, Porto's performance has improved significantly compared with the previous Machado period. I believe this will be a hard battle.

Boloni also reminded everyone that there are still three rounds left in the league, including the two focus games of Boavista and Benfica, and it is not time for Sporting Lisbon to breathe a sigh of relief.
