i want to be king

Chapter 84 They're already in a hurry!

"Su, you stay!"

Just after the pre-match preparation meeting, Boloni called Su Dong again.

Everyone is used to it.

In the past week's training camp, Su Dong was the player who was reprimanded the most by the head coach and had the strictest requirements.

And now, everyone knows that it's all for tonight's start.

"Brother, I'll wait for you outside."

Ronnie stood up, patted Su Dong's shoulder enviously, and smiled.

Barbosa, Andre Cruz, Jardl and others also patted Su Dong encouragingly, or nodded to him.

Sporting Lisbon's first team still recognizes Su Dong's performance. The strength may not be outstanding, but at least the tactical role is obvious. Four consecutive substitute games helped the team win. Su Dong's role is obvious to all.

Besides, four games, four goals, two assists, this data is taken out, except for Jadl, even Nikule, who performed well in the first half of the season and is regarded as the direct descendant of coach Boloni, dare not say that he can stabilize Su Dong.

Nowadays, what really limits Su Dong is age, and the physical confrontation and inexperience brought about by age.

But when it comes to tonight's start, they all agree.

……

After his teammates had left, Su Dong walked up to coach Boloni and Pontes.

"Su, you will start tonight. I haven't studied it carefully. I don't know if you are the youngest player to start in the Portuguese Cup final, but I still want to congratulate you." Boloni laughed.

He still hopes to decompress Su Dong as much as possible.

"Thank you, boss." Su Dong took a breath, wanting to relax, but couldn't.

Perhaps, after tonight's game is over, he can really relax for a while.

"Just like in normal training, remember what I said, be brave, be confident, show your strength, control the scene and rhythm, especially when the ball reaches the frontcourt, your task is to run to the gap to catch the ball, and then find a way to transfer the ball to where you think it is a threat."

This set of tactics has been practiced many times in the past week, and Su Dong has long been familiar with it.

Boloni drew some active areas of Sudong on a sketch. His task is to retreat behind Jardl, receive the ball from the midfield, the wing and the backcourt, and then transfer the ball out.

Therefore, his area of ​​activity is not restricted, and more is to move between Porto's defense and midfield.

"If we guessed correctly, Mourinho's formation should still focus on stability. The three-five-two formation is the most used by them recently, mainly because they lack reliable full-backs."

Porto has a strong lineup, and there is no shortage of excellent defenders. However, after Mourinho tried several times to fight the fire, he was not satisfied with several full-backs and central defenders. For example, the Argentine right-back Hugo Ibarra, who was completely sidelined because of tactical adaptation.

There is also left back Mario Silva, who also lost his main position. High school defender Ricardo Silva has been suppressed by Carvalho and Andrade this season and has no chance to play. Another veteran, Jorge Costa, even transferred directly during the winter break.

Now Mourinho's most trusted defense is Andrade, Carvalho and Carlos Segretario.

These three defenders are currently the best in Portugal. Needless to say, Andrade is the second youngest international central defender in the history of the national team.

Among them, Segretario once played for Real Madrid, but did not perform well.

At that time, Real Madrid coach Capello once publicly criticized him in the media, thinking that he was very active in training, but it was a disaster after playing, because he really couldn't play football at all!
But being able to join Real Madrid is itself a proof of strength.

These three defenders all have one characteristic in common, that is, they are short in stature.

"The three-five-two formation is mainly to suppress our midfielder, but in turn, their backcourt side defense will be very problematic, especially the high ball. You and Jadl both have an advantage. As long as we make good use of this, we can win this game!"

"In this game we are playing [-], the midfielder needs to limit Deco, and the task of connecting and supporting will be handed over to you."

Deco is the best-performing midfielder in the Portuguese Super League this season. Even if Jardl wasn't there, he would probably be the best-performing player in the Portuguese Super League. He is also the core of Porto's midfielder. No one dares to be careless.

"I will definitely do it well!" Su Dong solemnly promised.

Boloni looked deeply at Su Dong, nodded, and patted his left shoulder vigorously as a sign of encouragement.

Pontes also had mixed feelings in his heart.

In the six months since Su Dong came to Sporting Lisbon, the situation has changed too fast.

It was so fast that he hadn't expected it.

"Come on!" Pontes had thousands of words in his heart, and finally gathered them into two words.

After Su Dong gave him a high five, he hugged the coach who was also a teacher and friend, and after smiling, he waved goodbye.

The moment he walked out of the conference room, he was facing the scorching sun rising from the east, which was releasing its light and heat unscrupulously, making everyone feel its warmth and greatness.

…………

…………

As night fell, Oeiras, a small town west of Lisbon, was extremely lively and noisy.

Fans from all over Portugal, especially the two major cities of Porto and Lisbon, flocked to this small town.

They are all coming for the upcoming Portuguese Cup final.

The Portuguese National Stadium, the venue for the final, is located in the heart of the town, the Shemer Sports Complex in Poetas Park.

Poetas means poet in Portuguese, and this park lives up to its name.

Portugal's land area is not large. Although Porto is in the north, like Sporting Lisbon, they all came to Oeiras in time, and entered the stadium for warm-up training according to the arrangement of the Portuguese Football Association.

Tonight, after the game, they will also return to Porto overnight.

The fans of the two teams each occupied half of the stadium, and the number and momentum seemed to be evenly matched.

During the pre-match training, the two teams did not come up with any real materials.

After all, at this time, everything that should be drilled and prepared has already been prepared.

There is no such thing as a football game that is feasible in a football game.

The entire pre-match preparation process was proceeding in an orderly manner, and there were no unexpected twists and turns.

It was not until the players of the two teams finished training and returned to the locker room that Mourinho was surprised for the first time when he got the starting lineup of Sporting Lisbon.

……

"Su Dong actually started the game!"

Sitting in the coaching area of ​​the locker room, Mourinho frowned, surprised by the situation.

"This is not in line with Boloni's usual military habits. He has always been stable." Boas was also surprised.

Boloni is not the kind of unrestrained Latin faction, let alone an admirer of offensive football. He is from Romania in Eastern Europe. Pragmatism is his biggest advantage. He attaches importance to records and order, and pursues stability in techniques and tactics. This is Boloni's coaching style.

This is why players like Quaresma always have unstable attendance under Boloni.

Goalkeeper Nelson, defense Rui Jorge, Andre Cruz, Phil Babu and Queiroga, midfielders Joao Pinto, Paulo Bento, Barbosa and Quaresma, double forward Jardl and Sudong.

Judging from the starting lineup, Boloni is still seeking stability. Paul Tu and Barbosa started at the same time, sitting in the midfield, just to limit Deco, but this also sacrificed Ugo Viana.

"Bologni is really not a smart gambler!" Mourinho shook his head and laughed.

No gambler would directly flip his hole cards when he first came to the table.

But Mourinho's smile is still a bit reluctant, because the most unstable factor for Porto in this game is Su Dong, the young player who suddenly turned out at the end of the season.

Porto's starting lineup is three-five-two.

The goalkeeper is Baia, the defense is Carvalho, Andrade and Segretario, the midfielder is Costinha and Frederick Soderstrom to form a double midfielder, Deco is forward, Alenichev and Capuccio are separated on the two wings, South African striker McCarthy and Brazilian striker Creighton form a double striker.

Pena, who shined last season, and Postiga, who is known as the most outstanding genius of the new generation of Portugal, failed to start. Among them, Pena has completely lost the demeanor of the top scorer, and at the same time lost the trust of Mourinho.

……

"Sporting Lisbon is already in a hurry!"

Mourinho walked among the players, took out the Sporting Lisbon starting lineup, and kept shaking it in his hand.

"Look, even a 17-year-old player has been released. Is Boloni trying to get us a hand? Or is it broken?"

At the end, Mourinho himself laughed.

Porto's players also booed one after another, no matter how bad they were, they smiled.

In this kind of game, it is really unbelievable that a 17-year-old player is scheduled to start.

"Obviously, our opponents can't play new tricks, so Boloni can only hope for surprises and luck."

Mourinho waved his hand with great confidence, "But I have never believed in luck. If there is such a thing as luck in this world, it must be in the hands of stronger people like us!"

As soon as this was said, the hearts of the players in the locker room obviously changed.

Boas next to him also looked at Mourinho with admiration. He felt that the head coach is a natural instigator, who can always boost the morale and fighting spirit of the team with a few words.

"For tonight's game, you only need to do three things well."

Mourinho stretched out his right hand and pointed out a finger, "First, control Jardel and keep him away from the dangerous area."

Then compare the second one, "Second, reduce Su Dong's possession of the ball, foul if necessary, disrupt his rhythm, it is best to let him feel the cruelty of the Portuguese Cup final." Mourinho said at the end, with a playful smile.

"Finally, Deco, we will leave our offense to you!"

Deco nodded heavily in agreement.

"After playing, don't hold back your hands, press the midfielder directly, we will beat the new Portuguese Super League champion tonight!"

"it is good!"

　I am in a hurry!Begging for rewards, collections and recommendation tickets!Thank you!
