Beast King Costa

Chapter 132 National Hero
At 4:15 on the evening of April 20th, Portuguese time, the Bessa Stadium in Porto ushered in the menacing enemy Benfica.

This season, Boavista still has a theoretical opportunity to catch up with the Portuguese nationals who are fifth in the league, and to strive for a qualification for the Europa League next season.

But Boavista's high-level executives don't seem to think so-as far as Boavista's finances and team are concerned, the third-line battle next season is undoubtedly going to relegation.

Since the last round, Boavista coach Carlos Brito has started to train newcomers, and veteran striker Joao Pinto has not even entered the 18-man roster for this round.

Ronald Koeman also smelled the opportunity to easily score three points this round. In this game, he continued to put on his most handy 4-2-4 "full winger formation".

The "injured" Lauren Robert must be Ronald Koeman's confidant Giovanni. As for Nuno Gomez, Fabrizio Milico will continue to start.

The Italian international's recent rounds of matches have been a joy: Nuno Gomez had a fight with Ronald Koeman, and he actually got into the position smoothly.

Just, how long can Ronald Koeman stay in Benfica?

Almost every "Flying Eagle" is very clear in his heart.

After the start of the game, Benfica took out their proud attitude as a veteran giant, and did not even make an opening test, directly facing the continuous bombardment of Boavista's restricted area.

Especially Simao on the right side, the state of the game was as fierce as if he had eaten Wilgang, constantly dribbling and changing directions, dodging and moving, tossing so much that Boavista's full-back almost sprained his old waist.

Reluctantly, the state of Cameroon's national goal William is also online. He has saved Milico and Manduka's grabbing shots again and again in front of the goal.

Giovanni on the left didn't receive much defensive pressure in this game. He also had a few flashes of breakthrough with the ball in the frontcourt, which made people see the shadow of "Barcelona's future". Owani's kick was really not smooth, and several fierce moves were defeated by the kick in front of the goal.

In the 32nd minute, Giovanni once again pedaled his bicycle in a coquettish manner, passing two defensive players, cutting inside the penalty area and pumping his instep!
In the end, the little caddy on the sidelines was scared out of his wits—the ball was closer to three to five centimeters, and Giovanni's shot might have hit the little caddy...

Seeing that his shot was so outrageously wide, Giovanni looked up to the sky and cursed: "Shit!!!"

With an overwhelming advantage of 12 to 1 in the first half of the game, Benfica did not score as expected, which also surprised the Braga players in front of the TV.

At this time, Diego and Mateus were staring at the live broadcast of the game in the apartment. Seeing the two sides returning to the locker room with a score of 0 to 0, the two were very excited.

"Oh yeah! Boavista is mighty! Keep defending in the second half!"

"William is awesome! If you can keep the tie, I will buy your jersey tomorrow!"

"Hmm! Better beat Benfica!"

……

However, before the second half of the game started, both Diego and Mateus were dumbfounded.

I don't know if Carlos Brito "Alipay received the account" during the halftime break. He actually changed two people in a row before the start of the second half and removed the rock-solid central defender Herdero in the first half. Sario and John Luke, the midfield playmaker, replaced two African teenagers, Karifassie and Esami.

Such a substitution adjustment can be said to be quite "friendly".

At the beginning of the second half of the game, the experienced Simao taught the young player Carifassie who had just been replaced clearly.

In just 5 minutes, Carifassie conceded 4 fouls on Simao.

In the 51st minute, Carifacise was easily wiped by Simao again. Since there were no teammates around him to help fill the position, Carifacise had to start again.

This time, the referee couldn't tolerate the newcomers anymore.

After giving Benfica a free kick on the right that was only 5 centimeters away from the penalty area line, he also gave Carifacise a yellow card.

Captain Pettit came up and was about to take a free kick, but Simao seemed to feel that his feet felt special today. He walked over to communicate with Pettit in a whisper, and won the free kick.

Simao proved with his actions that his state today was really unstoppable. He didn't even think about cooperating with his teammates, and directly kicked a curved ball to the upper left corner of Boavista's goal!
Even if William stretched his right arm to the extreme, it couldn't stop Simao from completing his ninth league goal this season!
0 is better than 1!

Benfica, who was a guest, finally broke the deadlock!
Simao was very excited after scoring the goal. He even ignored the yellow card and took off his jersey to celebrate his unsolvable free kick and directly scored.

During this period of time, Benfica's record in both the league and the Champions League was quite sluggish. As the team's main player, Simão was also under considerable pressure from public opinion. This goal finally relieved himself.

After scoring a goal, watching the team play more smoothly and more confidently, Ronald Koeman can finally sit firmly in the army.

In the 62nd minute, Giovanni finally gave his mentor a sigh of relief.

This time he slammed a bicycle on the left side, and Esami, who was double-teaming, lost his center of gravity and almost sprained his ankle. The goalkeeper William, pulled his right foot, twitched his inner instep, and curved the ball inward. The ball directly bypassed William and went straight to the far corner of the goal!
0 is better than 2!

Seeing this, both Diego and Mateus in front of the TV sighed helplessly.

"Hey!"

"Hey! Boavista has collapsed, and Benfica has secured the 3 points!"

Diego felt helpless when Boavista failed to help Braga stop Benfica, but also sighed from the bottom of his heart: "I have to say, Giovanni's ball is really beautiful, if Giovanni's goal If this one can be so exciting, it really deserves the title of 'Barcelona's future'."

"It's a pity that Giovanni only had such a kick in several games, so it's useless."

While Diego and Matthaus were chatting about Giovanni's wonderful goal, Benfica made substitution adjustments.

Perhaps out of the good intentions of protecting his beloved general who had just recovered from a serious injury, Ronald Koeman replaced Giovanni directly after scoring a goal.

Looking at the players on the sidelines who were about to come off the bench, Mateus gestured excitedly: "Wow! The Angolan hero Mantolas was replaced! This buddy hasn't played for a long time."

"Mentolas?"

"Yeah! This guy has a big background. He became a blockbuster in Benfica in the 2001-2002 season. He scored 13 goals in a single season and even appeared on the cover of the Portuguese Football News! Wow, at that time, it was really an African player. Representatives in the Portuguese Super League..."

Speaking of this, Mateus curled his lips helplessly: "It's a pity that this buddy has been plagued by knee injuries since then, and he can't even play the ball. In the past four years, he has had three knee operations."

"My God! Three surgeries!"

Listening to what happened to Mantoras, Diego even felt a dull pain in his knees due to conditioned reflexes.

"Everyone thought that Mantolas had just faded out of football. Unexpectedly, this buddy finally defeated his illness and stood up again!"

Mateus introduced excitedly: "Why do you say that this guy is an Angolan hero? It's because this guy almost single-handedly led the Angola national team to win the World Cup tickets in Germany! This is Angola's first Make it to the World Cup finals once!"

"World Cup Finals!"

Hearing that the highest stage of international football, which is getting farther and farther away from the Chinese national football team, Diego suddenly felt a pain in his throat.

After learning from Caesar that his rebirth into this world might bring about a butterfly effect, Diego deliberately checked the teams participating in the German World Cup finals.

Very helpless, Diego did not see the name of the Chinese national team.

Angola's national hero, Mantolas, used a very tough style of play to open the way in the frontcourt after he came on the field. Whether it was footwork or physical confrontation, Boavista's defenders complained.

Even in the 82nd minute, Mantolas also received a pass from Lucimão on the right and scored with a header to seal the victory. Diego in front of the TV felt even more complicated.

Angola football has their national hero Mantolas, what about Chinese football?
When will China be able to usher in the national hero who wears the five-star red flag and leads the national team to the World Cup finals again by himself?
No idea, Diego really didn't know.

But at least, Diego knew, that person would not be him.

I am just a Chinese reborn on a Brazilian. Even if I have an indelible brand of "Made In China" in my heart, it is impossible for Diego to represent the Chinese national team in international A-level competitions.

"Hey……"

After watching Benfica end the game 3-0, Angolan hero Mantolas and his teammates celebrated this rare recent victory, Diego directly turned off the TV.

"Forget it! Asking for others is better than asking for yourself..."

Diego shrugged helplessly and said: "It's unrealistic to rely on those teams that have no desires and desires to help us stop Benfica. Let's play the game the day after tomorrow and just be ourselves."

"That's right! In the second half of the game, Boavista was simply rushing to score 3 points! Huh..."

However, Diego did not answer Mateus's words, but asked a little inexplicably: "Old Ma, have you ever thought about becoming a national hero like Mantolas?"

"Aha?" Mateus couldn't believe that Diego would ask such a question: "You know, my ideal in life is to make a lot of money, go back to Brazil to buy a luxury house, and enjoy the rest of my life."

"Yes! Everyone has their own pursuit, not everyone is willing to selflessly pay for the national flag on their chest! Sacrifice themselves for the honor of the country!"

"Uh...Diego, what are you talking about?"

"fine."

Diego tilted his head and smiled: "Tell me about those people who wear national team uniforms, but just want to make a name, and go back to the club Lions to ask for a big contract. Go to sleep!"

(PS: The first update on the shelves! I wrote a 3000-character chapter all night and sent it. I believe that every Chinese fan is waiting for the birth of a national hero belonging to Chinese football, and Lao Mouzi is also waiting.

Even though he is disappointed again and again, Lao Mouzi still hopes to see the day when Chinese football reaches the World Cup finals again!For the time being, I hope that in the top 11 in November, China will not lose the chain in the away game in Syria!
Oh... And!Regarding the whereabouts of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, I saw a Po owner yesterday saying that he was going to Perth Glory in the A-League.I don't know if it's true. )
