Coaching legend

"Miku, Costinha has come to defend Miku...Miku, he passed the ball to Drogba."

"Drogba stopped the ball, he stopped the ball on his right...Drogba turned and shot!"

Drogba's action was very cool. The moment he received the ball, he stopped the ball on his left. Then he quickly turned 180 degrees and volleyed with his right foot.

Drogba's turn and shot was too fast.

It was so fast that Carvalho, who was defending Drogba behind, didn't expect it at all.

It was still Baia who reacted quickly. He immediately made a save. Unfortunately, Drogba's shooting speed was very fast, so fast that Baia just reacted and the ball had already entered the net.

"Drogba, Drogba! Baia has already made a move, but he couldn't stop the ball from entering the goal."

"Drogba is getting more and more comprehensive now. Porto's defender Carvalho was completely shaken by Drogba. This turn shot was so wonderful."

"One to zero, Blackburn leads Porto one to zero."

George jumped high on the sidelines immediately.

So excited. Throughout the first half, Blackburn besieged Porto for 45 minutes, but there was no result. In fact, the opportunity just now, although because of the long shot, it somewhat opened up Porto's defense line.

But it is not an absolute opportunity.

Being able to score a goal is entirely Drogba's personal strength.

For a striker, this is a 180-degree turn and a volley shot, which is absolutely a manifestation of strength. And Drogba's shot is completely a violent aesthetic. Strength, a manifestation of complete strength.

The speed is so fast that it is impossible to defend.

This is even more true for Baia.

Baia, as the golden goalkeeper of Portugal's golden generation, is the pride of Portuguese football along with Figo and Rui Costa. Baia, who is already 34 years old, is a very important veteran in Porto. He also performed very well.

Unfortunately, Baia is old now.

Although he is experienced, he lacks explosive power. If he were young, he might have been able to save Drogba's shot just now. Unfortunately, he is a little old now, and even if he thought of it, his body could not react immediately.

Baia looked at the football in the goal and kicked the goal hard.

After Drogba scored, he opened his arms and started running. He came to the front of the Blackburn fans and waved his arms to his heart's content. At this time, the Blackburn players behind him also came to celebrate together.

Not to mention the Blackburn fans.

They shouted Drogba's name loudly.

In this expedition to Portugal, there were not many fans who came with the Blackburn team. But there were nearly 3,000 people.

The Dragon Stadium is a well-known stadium in Europe. It can accommodate more than 50,000 people, which is much more luxurious than Blackburn's Ewood Park. It was just successfully expanded in 2003. But in front of 50,000 Porto fans, Blackburn fans don't feel that there are too few.

They are not afraid of 50,000 Porto fans at all.

"Blackburn is easy to beat now. Leading by one goal, it should not be Blackburn that is anxious now, but Porto. If Porto falls behind 0-1 at home, then the next away game will be much more difficult."

"What will the young coach Mourinho choose? I'm very curious."

Martin Taylor laughed. Martin Taylor was of course very happy that Blackburn was leading.

"But I heard that coach Mourinho is a very crazy coach. There was a time when four forwards were sent in the Portuguese league. I wonder what he will choose now?"

What will Mourinho choose?

Even George was curious about this.

Mourinho? After Mourinho became famous, he had amazing handwriting in Chelsea, Inter Milan and Real Madrid. Especially after falling behind, there are often some strokes of genius. And the substitutions are also very crazy.

Substitutions are also called magical.

So George also wanted to see it, with some expectations.

But Mourinho has not made any substitutions. It's just that Porto's attack has been much more active.

This made George a little confused.

Is Mourinho satisfied with the current result of 0-1? Impossible.

With Mourinho's arrogance, how could he accept a 0-1 defeat at home.

But no matter what, George chose to remain unchanged. Blackburn sieged Porto, and the team quickly retreated. Now Blackburn is not in a hurry, but Porto is in a hurry.

However, Porto's offense has always been tepid, and George doesn't quite understand Mourinho's plan.

The game was not until the 77th minute, when Mourinho finally made a move.

He replaced Mendes with Delle. Porto's offense became 4-3-3, with three forwards Delle, McCarthy, and Carlos Alberto. The three midfielders are Costinha, Alenichev, and Maniche.

George knew that Mourinho was finally going to fight for his life.

But at the same time, George suddenly realized. Mourinho had not made a move, not because he did not want to, but because he had no chess pieces to make a move. Because Porto's bench was too weak.

Unlike George, the situation was not good in the first half, and he immediately played the trump card of Miku in the second half.

Because George had good players.

And now Porto has too few players for Mourinho to choose. There are not many players who can come on the court to change the situation on the court.

Thinking of this, George couldn't help laughing.

Mourinho, Mourinho. Even if you have the ability to reach the sky, what can you do without sufficient resources? You are not really God!

When Mourinho changed to three forwards, George immediately replaced Ribery with Klose.

Ribery's biggest contribution in the second half was that he ran a lot. Ribery's physical strength is absolutely full for an offensive player. He can run so fast that it seems like he is not tired at all. Ribery is the most active in the frontcourt.

Now that Ribery's task is completed, George will let Klose play.

Looking at Klose, George smiled at Mourinho next to him.

Hehe! Look, brother let the top scorer of the World Cup sit on the bench. Now there are only ten minutes left in the game before he lets him play. What, are you envious?

In fact, George was right.

Mourinho really envied George. Not only Klose is playing now, but even on George's bench, there are Hargreaves who has recovered from injury, Hleb, Arshavin, and Blackburn's best substitute Defoe.

Any of these players will be the main force in Mourinho's Porto.

But in Blackburn, they can only wait for a chance to play. This is the difference.

After Klose and Drogba partnered, Blackburn's offensive power became even greater. Of course, this is related to Porto's strengthened offense. There is no team in the world that can perfectly take into account both offense and defense.

If you strengthen the offense, there will definitely be some loopholes in the defense.

For Miku and Pires, there will be more space for passing.

As long as Porto's offense is interrupted, Blackburn's counterattack will be very fast. Although Kaka, a good counterattack player, and Ribery, who is fast, are missing, they can still counterattack with Miku and Pires. Miku's pass is very resolute.

Once it is passed, the personal strength of Klose and Drogba can be brought into play.

Carvalho is a man-marking central defender, with good positioning and strong steals. The other defender, Jorge Costa, is a central defender who is lagging behind. He is also a member of the golden generation of Portugal, but unfortunately he is old now. He is experienced, but his turning speed and chasing speed are too slow.

Whether it is Klose or Drogba on the Blackburn side, they are both extremely explosive forwards. Once they are allowed to pass, Jorge Costa will never be able to catch up with them.

This is the current situation.

In the 86th minute of the game, Alenichev broke through from the right and then made a cross. It was headed out by Lucio. After Alonso got the ball, he did not pass it to Miku as before, but made a long pass.

"Alonso, pass the ball... Drogba, head, Klose got the ball!"

Facing Alonso's pass, Drogba was in front of Carvalho, and he shook his head and passed the ball to the back.

At this time, facing the ball, Costa and Klose started at the same time. Costa's position was better, but after running, it was discovered that Costa's explosive power and speed were really not good enough.

Klose was like a small missile. He had strong explosive power and flashed in front of Costa.

"Klose, he surpassed Costa. Costa is old and has no explosive power. Klose, face Baia and shoot!"

Klose's World Cup top scorer and Premier League top scorer were not obtained by luck. Those honors were won by Klose with his superb shooting skills, which made him a world-class striker. Therefore, after getting the ball, Klose's ball-taking action was very simple.

After getting the ball, he shot directly.

The moment Baia saw Klose, he had already blocked most of Klose's shooting angles. But Klose still gently pushed the ball into the goal.

This ball is simply too simple.

From the pass to Drogba's header, and then to Klose's shot. It was just a few passes. There are many such balls in the Premier League, and Blackburn is worthy of being a Premier League team.

"Two to zero, two to zero. Klose scored a goal less than ten minutes after he came on the field."

"A dark horse is a dark horse after all. Porto's dark horse journey is about to end. Blackburn leads Porto 2-0 away. George is going to enter the Champions League final for the second time."

Martin Taylor has already announced that Blackburn has entered the Champions League final.

But this is definitely not a casual statement by Martin Taylor. Because this is a completely asymmetric war and a completely unequal dialogue.

Compared to Blackburn, Porto is too weak.

Although Mourinho is amazing, he is not God and it is impossible for him to turn stones into gold. Being able to lead Porto to the Champions League semi-finals is already a manifestation of Mourinho's magical ability. If he wants to go further, it is not based on Mourinho's strength, but the luck given by God.
