Chapter 70 Porto

copy world
Xia Qi returned to Quaresma's residence, and the long time away made Xia Qi both familiar and unfamiliar with this place.

Xia Qi feels a little unreal. The last second was in 2018, and this second is in 2009. It is only suitable for this change to be in a trance for a while.

Because time stands still when you leave.Shaqi is still in the Champions League red card suspension.

Mourinho arranged for him who could not participate in the Champions League to play in the Coppa Italia on Wednesday and tomorrow.

next day
Although Quaresma is in good health, Shaggy is mentally tired. Shaggy did not perform well in this game, and the audience was almost invisible. Relying on Adriano's personal ability, Inter Milan eliminated Cagliari and entered the next round.

Then Xiaqi was given a two-day holiday, and he watched the first leg of the quarter-finals of the 2008-2009 European Champions Cup at home.

The International Rice Field, which eliminated Manchester United, was drawn 2:2 by Porto at home.

The two away goals also boosted the confidence of Inter Milan returning to the home court.

In the week after the first round, Italian domestic TV stations, newspapers, and the Internet were all full of pre-match previews of the second round of the 2008-2009 UEFA Champions Cup quarter-finals.

Inter Milan is now Italy's only child in the Champions League, and their chances of qualifying are high.

So a lot of media came to speculate on hot spots, and too many media speculated on traffic, so a magazine called "Fashion Celebrity" conducted an alternative survey.

Who is the most popular ranking of men in the city of Milan.

Quaresma tops the list, and he's the number one fantasy object most coveted among teenage girls to teenage girls.

There are even many supermodels who publicly stated that they would not mind whether Quaresma had a girlfriend and were willing to wait for his call.

Seeing that Quaresma is so popular, the advertising sponsors do not want to miss this opportunity and want to invite Quaresma and the actress to shoot an advertisement.

Shaqi didn't want to waste too much time on off-court affairs, so he threw all these trivial matters to agent Mendes.

In the past few days on the training ground, Shaqi has worked hard to adapt to Quaresma's body. I don't know why Shaqi can't find the G-spot on the training ground.

Coach Jose Mourinho didn't start Shaggy in the second leg against Porto because of his poor training.

However, in the San Siro stadium with more than 8 people, Porto, who came from afar, played very aggressively, while the entire Inter Milan team seemed to be bewitched collectively and became unable to play like a second-tier team.

The game lasted 60 minutes, and the number of threatening shots was actually more in Porto, which made many people doubt Mourinho's lineup.
And Mourinho himself felt that he couldn't hold back his face, and he looked at the bench.

Shaqi had just completed a round of warm-up and sat on the bench.

Inter Milan has a lot of talents in the midfield and the frontcourt, and the rotation is one of the means to maintain harmony in the locker room.

Although Mourinho put Shaqi on the bench in this game, he actually didn't intend to let him play.

In this game, Inter Milan only needs a 0:0 draw with their opponents, so Mourinho put up a 4312 formation.

Ibrahimovic and Balotelli played double forwards, behind them came Cambiasso to support them.

The midfielder is Vieira, and the other two midfielders are captain Zanetti and Stankovic.

The defenders are Maicon, Materazzi, Cordoba and Thornton.

This kind of formation is stable and defensive, but lacks creativity, which fits Mourinho's defensive master's personality.

But with such a stable lineup, Inter Milan did not take advantage of the Porto midfielder led by Lucho Gonzalez.

Instead, the Porto Trident repeatedly created opportunities and almost broke Inter Milan's goal first.

Mourinho was a little hesitant. He was afraid that if he went on like this, his fright would turn into fright, and the door would really be broken.However, he is also considering the physical strength of the players in the double match a week. He wants both the league champion and the Champions League champion fish and bear's paw.

When Mourinho hesitated, Porto launched another wave of offensive.

Gonzalez crossed the penalty area obliquely, and Rodriguez overwhelmed Cordoba and pushed the football down.

Hulk grabbed the second spot, did not make any adjustments, and shot with one foot, and the football hit the far corner of the goal quickly and urgently.

Inter Milan goalkeeper Cesar turned the tide!
He blocked the football with one hand on the goal line to resolve the danger.

The fans at Meazza Stadium exclaimed again and again!
Mourinho really didn't dare to hesitate anymore.

"Ricardo, go!"

Mourinho now likes his little fellow more and more. It is because of his liking that he sees Xia Qi's poor performance in the training class, so he will let him play as a substitute.It's a protection, not a snub.

Xia Qi stepped onto the lawn, and the light screen lit up:

Long-term mission: the Medal of Beautiful Ball (Diamond), already worn.

Side mission: advance to the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Complete the task: reward 300 gold coins, 200 blue coins, and 150 green coins.

Awards: One simulation card, two training cards, 2011-2012 Barcelona-Messi 90-minute experience card, one free attribute point award.

Failure: deduct two points from any physical attribute, one point from the technical attribute, and one point from the mental attribute

Shaqi is very satisfied with this award. In the 11-12 season, Messi and Barcelona established absolute dominance, and this year Messi scored a terrifying 91 goals in major competitions.Since then, he has been called the club king.

Xiaqi replaced Stankovic, so that Cambiasso moved a little back and gave Shaqi the position of the midfielder.

The original Quaresma was not a midfield organizer, the most suitable position for him was a winger.

He fits in as a breaker, not a metronome.

But Shaqi's crossing gave him the ability of a shadow striker. When Inter Milan has two forwards, Quaresma played by Shaqi usually plays the No. 9 and a half position, so Cambiasso moved Shaqi.

Shaqi came on the field with the task of the head coach. After playing, Shaqi did not rush to attack, but helped his teammates to control the ball.

With his appearance, Inter Milan has one more midfielder who can pass and organize.The passive situation of the team was quickly reversed.

After gaining the initiative in the game, Inter Milan finally had the aura of a strong team.

They began to attack Porto's restricted area frequently.

Quaresma's old club Porto and its head coach Cheney thought: Don't wait three days, Quaresma can now revitalize Inter Milan's midfielder.

This was beyond his expectations.

Cheney had a vague feeling in his heart.

This change in Quaresma made Cheney, who was familiar with him, very uncomfortable. Just as he was frowning and thinking of countermeasures, Xia Qi suddenly activated.

With a sideways pass, Shaqi forcefully passed Porto's midfielder in the arc of the middle circle.

Immediately afterwards, he strode forward.

With big strides, head held high, and with a fierce aura, he rushed forward indomitably.

This sudden quickening of the rhythm made the old coach feel that something was wrong. Cheney immediately rushed out of the coaching bench, ran to the sidelines, waved his hands and shouted loudly:
"Defense!"

"Stop him! Stop him!"
