Chapter 163 Pressure Multiplier
Braga's players all knew that head coach Jesualdo Ferreira was out to find an old friend, but they didn't know that what Jesualdo Ferreira was looking for was none other than rival coach Paul Bento.

When Jesúaldo Ferreira returned to the training ground temporarily rented in Lisbon, the Braga players had already started the last formal training before the game under the leadership of other coaches.

As usual, the visiting team will not be able to go to the Jose Alvalade Stadium for on-field training tomorrow afternoon, that is, the afternoon or evening before the game. In order to better prepare for this final round of the game, Braga will I came to Lisbon for three days, it is impossible to not train for two days, right?

Since it is not a direct competitor with Sporting Lisbon, this training ground located in the outskirts of Lisbon is still the venue that Sporting Lisbon came forward to help Braga find.

Of course, in the grounds of the Benfica club, it is impossible for Braga to rehearse the tactics of the last round.

Just use this small training field to do simple warm-up and offensive and defensive drills, and maintain the competitive state just before the game.

However, when Jesúaldo Ferreira came to the training ground, regardless of the players' offensive and defensive drills, he directly asked the assistant coach to stop the training.

"Everyone assemble, let's have a short meeting."

Seeing the stern look on the old handsome Jesúaldo Ferreira's face, everyone didn't dare to neglect. They didn't even wipe off their sweat or drink water. They hurriedly gathered in front of the old handsome and listened to the old handsome Is there any new arrangement.

After seeing the boys assembled with puzzled faces, the old coach Jesúaldo Ferreira let out a sigh of relief: "Hey! Now I need to tell everyone a bad news-the game the day after tomorrow will be very Tough, very, very tough! Everyone has to be mentally prepared!"

"Uh……"

Everyone immediately looked at each other in blank dismay, why did the old man suddenly have such a face after he went out to meet his friends, coupled with such a rhetoric?
More witty players would think that the friend the old coach went to see, could it be the senior executives or coaches of Sporting Lisbon?
But the player who guessed something will not tell the truth.

After all, being able to know some news proves that Jesúaldo Ferreira's network of contacts in the Portuguese Super League for many years is strong enough.

Moreover, before the game, go to the opponent's staff to talk about the game. If the Portuguese Football Association Supervisory Committee finds out, it may be subject to various tedious investigations and verifications to ensure that the game is "fair, just and open". Principles of competitive spirit.

Of course, most people will think that these are ironies, and the rich teams don't have these so-called "principles"!

However, this is not the most "thrilling" news, and Jesualdo Ferreira once again said something amazing.

"I can roughly guess what will happen to the starting lineup of Sporting Lisbon for the game the day after tomorrow - there is a high probability that coach Paulo Bento will set up a 4-3-3 formation. In the frontcourt, Nani, Lidson, Devi The three major attackers will play, and there is a high probability that they will play the entire game. In the midfield, Custodio, Joao Coutinho, Rodrygo; in the backcourt, Hugo, Abel Ferreira, Tony Er, Canela; goalkeeper position, Ricardo!"

Looking at the shocked faces of everyone, Jesúaldo Ferreira still did not change his serious expression: "This is also Sporting Lisbon's strongest lineup! In other words, Sporting Lisbon is going to take this from us. For them Say insignificant 3 points and help Benfica in the same city enter the Champions League."

"what……"

The boys in Braga couldn't help being restless for a while. Obviously, everyone hoped that Sporting Lisbon would "pit" their rivals in the same city in the final round, but what they didn't expect was that for the economic benefits of the city and for the three giants to be able to fight side by side. Entering the UEFA Champions League against the top five league rivals, Sporting Lisbon actually chose "fair play"!
"You don't have to be too pessimistic."

Having said that, Jesúaldo Ferreira's stern face finally softened a little.

"After all, if Sporting Lisbon takes the initiative, it will be good for us in defensive counterattacks - when Sporting Lisbon is attacking, their formation will be very high, which is equivalent to leaving a large open space in the backcourt, giving us as much freedom as possible. A chance to run. At that time, once you pass the defense of Sporting Lisbon, it will be a flat river!"

"so!"

Jesúaldo Ferreira looked at his main defensive players, especially Paul Jorge, who has been in relatively poor form recently.

"Defense! We must defend well in this game! We cannot give Sporting Lisbon the chance to score first! Coach Paulo Bento's defensive system has always been good. Once they take the lead, if they choose to retreat across the board to keep a goal, we will It will become extremely passive!"

"understand!"

"We won't drop the chain!"

"Coach Ferreira, don't worry! We will stick to it until the end!"

……

The defensive players all nodded solemnly, vowing to fight the three major attackers of Sporting Lisbon until the last moment.

"Hey! In short, we must not let Sporting Lisbon score first!"

Jesúaldo Ferreira repeated again without hesitation: "It would be even better if we can score first! So, everyone has to work hard! That's it! Go back and continue training."

The simple meeting came to an end. The old coach Jesúaldo Ferreira seemed not in a good mood, and he did not stay on the training ground with everyone. Instead, after explaining some points that his assistants need to pay attention to, So he left alone, and no one knew where the old man went to relax.

This short meeting put everyone under pressure.

The playful and noisy atmosphere during the training was destroyed in an instant. After the training resumed, everyone had a solemn expression on their faces. Apart from the cooperation and communication that should be on the court, there was no joke Ridiculous words.

This slightly depressing atmosphere was also maintained until the field training the next day.

Even in the Jose Alvalade Stadium, the most magnificent stadium in Portugal, everyone did not bother to watch the various modern design details of this "giant candy box" stadium, and all their attention was focused on on the pitch.

Of course, what everyone doesn't change is the goal for this last round of competition!
