Handsome position is not easy

Chapter 142
After Deco played Paul Bento many times, he finally found a chance to get rid of the latter, and then hit the plane with a long shot, Mourinho's face became ugly.Most of the audience at the Alvalade Stadium either sighed or spouted countless trash words at the Brazilian who showed off his skills. The diehard Porto fans were very happy to see this situation. In Deco's direction, he blew a shrill whistle for encouragement.

Mourinho looked at Deco, who shook his hand to express regret after hitting the plane with a long shot. He took a deep breath and exhaled it all. He turned around and called to Thiago Moreira, who was jogging and stretching his muscles. The player hurriedly took off his substitute vest to get ready to play, and Brito came over with the registration form upon seeing this.

"Jose, what's the matter?"

"Well, Baltmar, you go to the fourth official immediately, I'm going to replace Deco with Thiago."

"Deco? He's not in good shape, he's alive and well..."

"Don't say these things are useless, hurry up, let him play like this, Porto will suffer a big loss sooner or later!"

Sensing Mourinho's bad mood, Brito shrugged his shoulders, quickly filled out the necessary information on the registration form, and then found the fourth official standing not far away, and secretly made a substitution The procedure has become a familiar routine for Porto, and even the TV broadcast camera can hardly capture the moment when they make a decision, so when the fourth official raised the number plate indicating a substitution, everyone hadn't reacted yet.

The No. 26 was replaced on the 10th. The old fans of Porto have no impression of the No. 26. After all, Thiago Moreira came to the Blue and White from Leiria this season, but how could the Porto people who belonged to the No. 10 jersey not know? ?Deco came to the team in the winter window of 1998 and wore No. 29. After the second season in Porto, he got the No. 10 jersey representing the absolute core. No matter how the team coach changes in the next few years, Deco Codo has an unrivaled dominance in the midfield.

Porto was able to take the lead at the Alvalade Stadium. Deco, who sent out a wonderful assist, was the main contributor. The Brazilian was playing a leading role in suppressing Sporting Lisbon in the first few 10 minutes of the game. At this moment, it is time to expand the lead At that time, the head coach replaced the No. 10 player who performed the best on the field. This not only confused the expedition fans and the coaching staff, but also confused the host who was in charge of the TV commentary.

"Porto's central midfielder, Deco, successfully led the offense with crosses from the left to help Jankaskas score. In nearly 10 minutes of the game, the number of passes and success rate data ranked first in the team. Any Anyone watching this game will come to a conclusion that Deco is the engine of Porto. Is it too cautious for Mourinho to take him and replace him with a defensive midfielder? Driggs experience what it's like to be a commander?"

The one who couldn't figure out how to be replaced was Deco himself. He thought he had done nothing wrong, but was replaced by the coach halfway. The credit for scoring three points at the Vallard Stadium is almost in hand, so why not let yourself play the full 10 minutes to justly accept this glory?

Deco's face was full of reluctance when he walked towards the halfway line, and he seemed absent-minded when he clapped and hugged Thiago Moreira. If he rested and stayed for the next game, Mourinho just stretched out his right hand expressionlessly, and didn't even bother to say anything about the scene. Deco shook his head angrily, and went straight to the innermost position of the bench and sat down.

Thiago brought new information to the Porto players on the field. Mourinho really let Yang Ding lead the offense in front, and he himself had to guard the center line with Costinia.Boloni, who was still regretful about conceding the ball, instantly ignited his fighting spirit when he saw the change in Porto's formation. He shouted to cheer up the players of Sporting Lisbon. The team can't handle a 19-year-old kid?

Young also had some doubts at the moment when Mourinho made a substitution. Analyzing with normal thinking, even if Jose wants to rely on strengthening his defense to stabilize the current 1:0 lead, he should also substitute for Deco. Assisting himself, the reason why the previous attack was successful was that Deco was in the rear directing his teammates to move. The boy really didn't figure this out when he saw the substitution card raised.

However, after he retreated a little, he immediately understood Mourinho's intentions. Clayton and Candido Costa could not use their personal abilities to complete a one-stop breakthrough on the wing, and Jankaskas was not suitable for his feet. The passing style of play, the ball is bound to be concentrated at the feet of Deco and himself. The Brazilian, who thinks this state should be taken for granted, is no longer as cautious as he was at the beginning. His frequent long shots but failed to pose a threat also proves that up to this point.

The center is the most solid area of ​​Sporting Lisbon's defense. Deco's several attempts to take a cold shot failed to show that it is very difficult to penetrate here directly. Under such circumstances, Porto is almost certain to hand over the ball, and Mourinho is guarding against a possible counterattack from Sporting Lisbon.

Although he did not let Thiago Moreira directly inform him of this, Young had guessed the coach's intention in advance, and the physical fitness of Porto's frontcourt players who had maintained the siege for more than 70 minutes had already dropped to near the dangerous line. For the counterattack striker, it is reasonable to replace a midfielder.

As for why he won Deco instead of himself, Young has been in charge of passing and receiving the ball near the Brazilian since the start of the second half. Except for a few times when he saw an opportunity, he sped forward a few times, and was almost in a half-rest state at other times. On the contrary, in order to put enough pressure on Sporting Lisbon, Deco repeatedly ran and changed positions in the frontcourt, and he also took on the task of breaking through the defense of the Green Lions' three midfielders. Branch has many advantages.

After thinking about this, Young began to consciously withdraw his position further, and had completely withdrawn from the area where he could directly threaten the goal. Seeing that the boy was no longer pressing, Clayton and Candido Costa also pulled back Some distance away, only Jankauskas is still dangling in the penalty area, trying to find opportunities to cooperate with his teammates.

The pressure on his body suddenly lightened, and the Sporting Lisbon players even felt a little uncomfortable. Sapinto quickly seized the rest time to support his legs to take a few breaths. Custodio, who had lost his mark, asked captain Paul Ben Tom, the latter didn't understand what Porto was planning. Why did Deco, who was annoying but outstanding in personal ability, go down?
