Midfielder

Chapter 155

Lyon finally saw what a crazy attack is at the Dragon Stadium, and Le Guen also understood why Manchester United lost to this group of crazy people.

Porto definitely did not conquer England by luck as reported by the French media, but if you look at the Portuguese possession time of up to 58% in Manchester, Le Guen can know that this strongest team in Portugal is not in vain, they really have extraordinary abilities.

In the first 20 minutes, Lyon basically had no power to fight back, and their most proud midfielder could not control the rhythm of the game at all.

The samba dance that can twist in the French Ligue 1 seems so obscure in front of Porto, and it has no usual smooth feeling.

Lyon did not get the first chance to shoot until the 24th minute of the game. Gowu received Juninho's direct pass on the right, ran all the way to the bottom, and before Bosingwa blocked it, he made a low pass to the penalty area, but Carvalho got the first point and shook his head to clear the ball.

Elber intercepted the ball on the right side of the penalty area, and with a fake move, he got past Maniche's tackle and then shot low at a very tricky angle.

However, Baia, who had been ready in front of the goal, did not let the ball slip through his fingers. He pressed the ball firmly under his body with a side dive.

This was the first shooting opportunity that Lyon got in the first half of the game. The whole coordination seemed very concise, and the overall effect was actually quite good.

But Le Guen, who was standing on the sidelines, could not relax his tense nerves at all. This might be the most difficult game Lyon played in this game.

Lyon, who has always been good at controlling the rhythm, played with the rhythm of Porto after the game started. This is really a bad signal.

Although Lyon can finally play such a concise counterattack after experiencing the opponent's bombardment, this is not the way Le Guen is most accustomed to.

Lyon, who has always boasted of its delicate skills and exquisite coordination, now faces Porto, and the opponent is more like a samba dancer.

Especially the black-haired kid, when he was ravaging Diarra, every move could possibly complete a pass, as if he was the Brazilian.

The three Brazilians of the Lyon team seemed to be not as flexible as this kid, and Lin Yi's constantly twisting hips had already stunned Diarra.

Even if Edmilson sometimes came out to assist, it would be difficult for these two people to double-team Lin Yi, and the kid's pass was simply impossible to defend.

As long as he was given a space for the football to pass through, he could create incredible passes, which was the most terrifying thing about Lin Yi.

However, after being suppressed by the opponent for more than 20 minutes, the Lyon team finally took a breath, and they could at least organize a decent attack.

Aulas, who was sitting on the rostrum, thought that this was a sign that the Lyon team had woken up, but soon, he realized that his idea was wrong again.

Two minutes after Lyon's attack, Lyon's central defender De Fland made a mistake in stopping the ball in the penalty area. Before he could even make up for it, Lin Yi had already taken the lead to steal the ball away, and then he made a cross pass. McCarthy received the ball and volleyed it high from the right side of the penalty area.

McCarthy's shot was just a little bit high, and Coupe could almost hear the sound of the ball flying out of the crossbar, which made him angry.

This mistake almost made Aulas jump out of his seat, and Coupe was very annoyed and yelled at De Fland.

"De Fland, what are you doing! Clear the siege! Clear the siege with a big foot! Don't make this mistake again! Damn it!" Coupe seemed very manic at the moment.

In less than half an hour after the start, Coupe had experienced several such tests, and he didn't want to enjoy a few more throbbing heartbeats.

Damn, Coupe was worried that after the game, he would have a heart attack due to such a shot, this group of hateful Portuguese lunatics!

Although Porto missed the chance to score again, every attack now seems to cause great trouble to Lyon.

This forced Le Guen to stand on the sidelines and remind his players loudly that they must stay focused and not relax for a second.

However, even if Le Guen reminded the players of Lyon in this way, those guys still looked a little embarrassed under the crazy attack of Porto.

Mourinho did not tighten his nerves like Le Guen, but he seemed very calm. Now the players on the field were already excited enough.

There was no need for him to roar on the sidelines to urge the attack. All he had to do was let these guys continue at this rhythm.

Just as Mourinho thought, the crazy people on the Porto team now seemed very excited. Any technical moves were now easy to do. It was possible to pass people in any way. No matter what kind of cooperation they played, it would not surprise people. Even luck would sometimes be on their side.

In the 30th minute, Deco got a chance for a direct free kick from the left. He was aiming at Carvalho and his team and was going to make a cross, but when the ball was kicked out, it actually drew a strange arc in the air, and all the players who were trying to score in the middle missed the ball.

The ball actually spun directly to the back corner, and the cross instantly turned into a shot. When Coupe saw this scene, his scalp was a little numb.

If this guy hadn't chosen to attack and pick up the ball for safety, perhaps Deco's free kick would have knocked on the door of the Lyon team.

Even so, Coupe fell on his back on the goal line because of his quick step back to save the ball, but his fingers finally picked up the ball.

But this unlucky guy was sat on his face by Edmilson who retreated to save the ball, and the shot was clearly shown on the big screen.

"Well, if the Brazilian has poor digestion, the goalkeeper will probably suffer." Lin Yi's malicious speculation made Deco speechless.

This is just a microcosm of Lyon's embarrassment. They are so distracted when defending, and Porto's insertion is too ghostly.

Even the shooting is like this. Maniche's long shot hit Edmilson's calf and changed its line, almost reflecting into the goal.

In order to save the ball, Coupe desperately dived sideways, and his head almost hit the goalpost, which scared Le Guen.

"Attack is the best defense", Mourinho's team interpreted this classic on the football field very well when facing Lyon.

The situation on the field was like this. Porto was attacking and Lyon was trying to counterattack, but their momentum was always suppressed.

However, the French did not give up their offensive attempt. Their forward pressure was also fierce, which was why Porto did not press forward in a big way.

Lyon's offensive efforts finally got the best shooting opportunity since the start of the game in the 38th minute. After Juninho attracted Maniche's attention, he suddenly sent a straight pass to the ribs of the penalty area. Lyon's full-back Eshien advanced at high speed and knocked back in the penalty area.

In an unmanned area, when the ball was passed to the edge of the penalty area, Porto had a short defensive gap. Gowu stepped on the penalty area line and swung his left foot fiercely. This cold shot caught Baia off guard. He stretched his body hard but failed to block the shooting route.

Just when Gowu was about to cheer for this shot, the ball that had passed Baia's fingertips was shoveled and cleared by Carvalho on the goal line.

"Good job! Carvalho, who started for the first time, made a great defense! This guy is just like an angel on the goal line!"

When Carvalho successfully cleared the ball, the whole Dragon Stadium burst into applause, all for this guy who rarely started.

This is the benefit of Mourinho's large-scale rotation in the past two months. Every guy who stands up from the bench can immediately get into the game.

Like Carvalho, although this guy is playing in the Champions League for the first time, he is not afraid of the stage at all because of his consecutive starts in the league.

If the danger had not been completely over at this time, Baia would definitely hug Carvalho and give him a big kiss. This guy is so cute.

However, the crisis of the Porto team has not been completely resolved. When there are about 30 meters away from the goal, Juninho, who grabbed the first landing point, did not stop the ball. He chose to volley directly. Maniche didn't even have time to be a human wall, and watched the football whizzing past his body.

"Bang!" When the football hit the goalpost and made a crisp sound, Mourinho also stood up from the coaching seat for the first time and stood on the sidelines.

But this guy who always had a calm expression did not roar, but just pressed his hands down towards the players.

"Steady down" Although Mourinho did not speak, Deco and Lin Yi understood what he meant. Porto needed to calm down.

They attacked too fiercely during this period, and it was inevitable that there would be such loopholes in defense. It is best not to leave such an easy opportunity for the opponent to shoot.

In particular, do not give Juninho such an opportunity. With five goals in eight Champions League games, the Brazilian is the most powerful killer of the Lyon team.

Just like the shot just now, the Brazilian can complete the shot at any point within 35 meters of the goal.

For this mobile artillery of the Lyon team, Mourinho needs to let his players strengthen their defense and not let the opponent easily sneak attack.

Porto, which had regained its footing, began to focus its defense on Juninho. Maniche and Costinha's joint defense began to stifle the Brazilian's support for the frontcourt. In the subsequent attack, Lyon could only rely on Gove's forced breakthrough on the wing to find opportunities.

As long as the center can completely block Lyon's most threatening offensive route, Porto will have nothing to fear, because Porto's two full-backs are obviously more powerful than the opponent. Ferreira was selected as one of the best 11 players in the European arena by UEFA in 2003.

With this guy on the wing, at least there can be no danger on the right, not to mention that there is a Bosingwa who is both offensive and defensive in front of him.

The defensive skills of left-back Valente are not as tough as Ferreira, but he is obviously more fierce when he presses on the attack.

But now the guy Valente is facing is the current French international Gove. In a one-on-one situation, Valente is still a little disadvantaged in defense.

However, even if Govu could beat Valente, it was difficult for Elber to find a suitable shooting angle when his cross ball hit the penalty area.

This German-assembled small steel cannon is no longer as sharp as before, not to mention that Carvalho is a tough guy who has marked Van Nistelrooy.

Elber's two headers were weak because of Carvalho's interference, and were easily caught by Baia on the goal line.

And Gove's hard attack on Valente also left a lot of trouble behind him. The closer he pressed, the more Deco could use the space behind him. Although Maniche retreated to the middle to help Costinha defend, Deco could freely roam in the front court and launch a counterattack at any time.

Compared with Lyon's frequent crosses without any gains, Porto's wing was not so smooth. Their several crosses did not even accurately find McCarthy. Bosingwa was still a little less accurate than Alenichev.

Even if Deco could successfully go to the bottom, he would choose to pass the ground ball more often instead of letting McCarthy grab the header, which also reduced a lot of aerial threats.

However, Eshien was completely suppressed by Bosingwa's strength and almost vomited blood. When Bosingwa rushed up, the guy couldn't stop him at all.

This made Le Guen very helpless. He could only let Malouda appropriately tilt the defensive focus to this side, but this didn't play much of a role at all.

Porto, who was at the Dragon Stadium, successfully resolved several crosses in the first half by Lyon's defense line, but Lyon's frontcourt offensive was also slightly poor because Juninho was restricted, and their wing attack was also obscure, but when the number accumulated to a certain extent, changes would occur.

When the referee from Sweden had already raised his wrist to look at the watch, the first half of the game was about to end, but at this moment, Bosingwa once again squeezed out Eshien's close position, along the right side, he quickly went down the bottom, one pass after another, Bosingwa directly chose to cut inside.

It is estimated that even the defensive players of the Lyon team did not expect that in the stoppage time of the first half, the opponent suddenly came up with such a forced attack.

When Malouda was chasing from behind and De Fland was intercepted in front, Bosingwa was very smart and gave a low ball through the crotch.

De Fland probably regretted why he left such a chance for Bosingwa at this moment. This crotch pass made him very embarrassed.

But the one who was more unlucky was probably not him, but Edmilson who was defending behind him. This guy didn't expect the ball to be passed like this.

Bosingwa's low pass was very fast. This guy almost used the power of shooting to pass the ball. The football hit Edmilson's calf directly and bounced out. The unlucky guy didn't even react to what happened when the football bounced.

But someone reacted much faster than him. When Diarra found that the kid he was defending jumped out, he realized that things were very bad.

Because the place where Lin Yi jumped out was exactly the first landing point of the football, and it was just at the edge of the small penalty area. The kid kicked it when he was trying to score.

Lin Yi didn't plan to stop the ball at all. At about ten meters away from the goal, he didn't want to give Coupe and the defensive players any chance to react.

However, although Coupe was a little brainless when he spoke, he was able to occupy a place in the French national team, and his strength was certainly very strong.

Lin Yi's shot was a standard cold shot. He took advantage of the time difference, especially at such a close distance, so he didn't deliberately pursue the angle.

But this kid still underestimated Coupe's reaction speed. When the football hit the far corner of the goal, Coupe suddenly jumped up and made a sideways save.

This guy's body was fully stretched out, and his big hands stretched forward as much as possible, and his whole body covered most of the defensive area of ​​the goal.

Fingertips, when Coupe's palms opened, his fingertips touched the football! This guy used his greatest strength to push the ball out of the goal.

A perfect save to the extreme, at this time even the commentator on the scene had to cheer for such a save, it was indeed an impeccable rescue.

However, Coupe's ability to save such a shot with his superhuman reaction does not mean that everyone in the Lyon team has such a reaction nerve.

When this guy pushed Lin Yi's shot out in an incredible way, Edmilson, who had made a mistake just now, was an idiot again.

Maybe Edmilson couldn't believe that such a shot would be blocked, so this guy didn't control the landing point at the first time.

If Coupe was still in the mood at this time, he would definitely point at Edmilson's nose and blurt out a French curse.

But at this moment, a shadow flashed in Coupe's eyes that made him feel terrified. The guy who grabbed the first landing point was wearing a blue and white team uniform.

Lin Yi, the boy's black hair appeared in Coupe's eyes again. This time he was closer to the goal, maybe less than five meters.

Coupe was in no mood to estimate this distance. He couldn't even get up from the grass, and the boy had already slid to grab the first landing point.

Sliding, shovel shot, when Lin Yi's left foot hit the football again, Coupe had no chance to raise his hand to make a defensive move.

The football ruthlessly passed through Coupe's head and hit the net fiercely. Coupe's hand, which he raised at this moment, could only helplessly grab a handful of air.

"GOAL!!! Great goal! Our magic boy broke through the Lyon team's goal with his continuous shots! Wonderful performance!"

"1:0, Porto finally broke the deadlock! After the opponent resisted for 45 minutes, we once again broke through the opponent's defense!"

Lin Yi didn't hear what the commentator on the scene was saying. Anyway, at this moment, he just wanted to vent his emotions after scoring a goal by cheering!

"We are Porto! We are the strongest! We are invincible!" Lin Yi pulled his jersey hard and roared crazily!

At this moment, Lin Yi was like a conqueror who could destroy everything, making the entire Lyon team tremble with his roar. . .

(Inter Milan was completely defeated under Benítez. They played one more game than AC Milan and were still seven points behind. Alas, Benítez's aura of bad luck will destroy anyone he catches. What can the triple crown do? It's still bad luck. With this guy, Inter Milan is sure to win...)
