Midfielder
Chapter 35 Unlucky Opponent
Using the shortest time to achieve the fastest points-grabbing plan, Mourinho used real scores to verify his promise. He did not disappoint the Porto players who were used to failure. The idea of victory has begun to take root in everyone's mind.
Four wins and one draw in five games scored thirteen points. This is all Mourinho's results in the first five games of Porto. Perhaps no one could have imagined that this new guy could achieve such excellent results. Is this guy too lucky?
But Mourinho does not think it is luck, because the strength of the Porto team itself is not bad. It can even be said that in the current top three competition in Portugal, Porto's player team is the strongest, and it is not affected by serious injuries like other teams.
Whether it is midfield general Deco, Costinha or the fierce bandits Carvalho and Jorge Costa in the back, they can guarantee that they will play in a healthy state. Even the bench of Porto is full of players who can play at any time.
In terms of lineup alone, Porto has an absolute advantage, but they have not yet brought this advantage into play because they lack a strong leader and the momentum to fight with their opponents.
Just as Da Costa said, you can never expect a sheep to lead a group of wolves. He needs a lion-like commander, and Mourinho is this lion. Under his command, every Porto player can be as fierce as a wolf.
Simulated actual combat confrontation in training matches has become the main theme of Porto's training now. Guys like Maniche and Lin Yi, who often go crazy on the court, have become the symbol of Porto. They brought this fierce temperament into the team.
Moreover, a little guy like Lin Yi who is good at passing is more likely to gain a foothold in the team. Although he does not have an advantage in the competition, Lin Yi's light passes can always create good scoring opportunities for the forwards, and his seemingly harmless face is more lethal.
No one wants to embarrass such a little guy, including those female fans with strong maternal instincts. Now the most popular person in Porto is no longer those standard Portuguese handsome guys, but this kid who has just joined the team for a month.
Outside the gate of Porto's training base, a group of aunts besiege the little boy every day. Lin Yi is often dragged into the turbulent female wolf pile and ravaged by the envious eyes of his teammates.
More than a month of running-in has made the entire Porto look like a strong army. There are not many people who can hold back their charge. The continuous victory is not accidental, but inevitable.
Mourinho has been very clear since the day he came that he doesn't have to worry about the team's lineup. He only needs to instill the confidence of winning in these people. When these guys no longer inertially accept the result of failure, then Porto will turn around faster than anyone else.
Especially Lin Yi's enthusiasm on the training ground has deeply infected everyone. Even a 15-year-old kid is so desperate, what reason do you have to stand aside and be a bystander? Anyone with a little ambition does not want to be surpassed by a child.
When everyone started to work hard, Porto had been twisted into a powerful force, and the energy it burst out would surprise people.
It is not surprising that Porto can achieve such results in recent games. Even facing the record of four wins and one draw, Mourinho just curled his lips. He did not think this was a miracle as the media thought. This should be the level that Porto should play.
Mourinho even regretted the draw. Originally, in his plan, five consecutive wins would be the most perfect result, but look at the opponent of the draw, that is Sporting Lisbon, and it is still at the opponent's home court.
Mourinho not only helped Porto to get a draw away from home, but also caught up with 2:2 after falling behind 0:2.
Perhaps the people who are more regretful now should be Sporting Lisbon. They lost the three points they had in a very good situation. Losing points is already depressing enough. After being tied by Porto, they have to accept the reality of being surpassed by their opponents in the standings.
Tie the opponent, get one point, and Porto has already caught up to second place in the standings, now only one point less than the first-ranked Benfica. This is the answer given by Mourinho and his Porto team.
Sporting is not only tied by the opponent in the score, but the process is the most depressing thing for their fans. They were already leading 2:0, and they could have relied on defensive counterattacks to maintain this score.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who made an exception to start the game, showed a good state. Maybe he saw his old opponent on the opponent's bench again, so in the first 45 minutes of this game, Cristiano Ronaldo was very active.
But after 45 minutes, everything returned to silence again. In order to maintain the leading situation, Inacio once again chose to be conservative.
After halftime, Inacio conservatively chose to replace Cristiano Ronaldo, the young man who had provided two consecutive assists in the game, with a defensive midfielder. Inacio hoped to maintain this hard-earned lead in the second half.
But Mourinho didn't give him this opportunity. When Inacio replaced his striker, Mourinho chose to change Porto's formation to three forwards, and he moved Deco's position forward significantly, almost to the penalty area of Sporting.
The two full-backs pressed forward fiercely, and the three forwards stretched out on both sides. Behind the striker Dallei was Deco. Such a multi-layered offensive formation suppressed Sporting's counterattack at the beginning of the second half, and they couldn't even organize an effective pass.
Lin Yi stood on the sidelines at this time. When Cristiano Ronaldo reluctantly put on his clothes and sat on the bench, his opponent was preparing to appear. Although this was Lin Yi's first appearance at the Alvalade Stadium, many people were no longer unfamiliar with him.
Thirty minutes after this kid was thrown on the court by Mourinho, everything changed. From this day on, the Alvalade Stadium was destined to nail Lin Yi's name on the list of the most unpopular players, because this kid once again became Sporting Lisbon's bitter opponent.
He had destroyed Sporting's defense with one goal and one assist at the Luz Stadium in Porto, and this time was no exception. Lin Yi, who transferred to Porto, once again regarded Sporting Lisbon as a stepping stone to win the trust of others.
It seemed that Lin Yi was born to be the nemesis of Sporting Lisbon. When he played against this team, he always became the focus of the field, but the focus was always the focus of Lisbon, no matter whether they were willing or not.
Lin Yi became the target of the entire Lisbon curse in two games. It can be said that he has created a record, and his opponent Cristiano Ronaldo missed the opportunity to play with Lin Yi on the same field for the second time. The collision of the two stars once again became empty talk.
The conservative Inacio thought he had grasped the key to victory, but when he turned around, he found that the key to victory was taken off by himself and thrown on the bench, and the two locks he placed on the field failed to prevent the black-haired boy.
The strong double defensive midfielders were originally the two lines of defense set up by Inacio to ensure the victory of the Athletic team, but he forgot one thing. Lin Yi had an absolute psychological advantage when facing the main defensive midfielder of the Athletic team, Paito.
The last lesson had already put a lot of psychological pressure on Paito. In that 3:0 game, Paito became the most abused person on the field of the Athletic team, and now he had to face the little guy who abused him again.
At this time, Paito was definitely not thinking about revenge, but cowardice. He didn't want to make a fool of himself again at the Alvalade Stadium.
Yes, the Athletic team has two defensive midfielders, and Paito is not alone now, but the number of people cannot determine everything. This sentence is also used in the defense of football games. Two defensive midfielders may not be able to tie up a slippery loach.
Moreover, they need to separate one person to take care of Deco who is waiting for an opportunity near the penalty area. Porto's strong attack has compressed the defensive formation of the Athletic team to the limit. Every player of the Athletic team is a little nervous to deal with the game.
When Lin Yi touched the ball for the first time on the court, Paiyi could clearly feel his throat tighten. He even felt difficulty breathing without confrontation. There was no way, because the black-haired kid had taught him too many lessons the last time they met.
Jump? Or follow? This was a real problem for Paiyi. The moment he faced Lin Yi, he clearly felt that his legs were no longer his own. His technical movements were seriously out of shape, and he couldn't even complete the basic defensive positioning movements.
Lin Yi would not miss such an opportunity. Lin Yi, who was originally planning to pass the ball to Deco, reacted sharply at the moment when Paiyi was in a hurry. With a quick double-footed ball change of direction, Lin Yi rushed out directly in front of Paiyi.
Paiyi's staggering steps not only failed to intercept Lin Yi's ghostly breakthrough, but also blocked another midfielder partner who came to help him. At that moment, Inacio even had the idea of shooting Paiyi directly on the sidelines.
"Damn it! Damn it! Has Paito become unable to play football?" Ignacio was speechless about Paito, who could still serve as the defensive gate of the Atlético team in the first half, because Paito was obviously scared by the boy opposite him!
After lightly shaking off the first defender, Lin Yi had no intention of continuing to dribble. After all, the thickness of the Atlético team's defense would not leave him too many opportunities to perform, but his choice surprised many people.
This little guy who often likes to pass the ball on the training ground directly shot a fierce shot five meters outside the penalty area. This sudden shot directly penetrated the Atlético team's defense line, and even at the moment he kicked, no one came up to block it.
The shot directly threatened the Atlético team's goal. If Ricardo hadn't reacted faster, perhaps the ball would have entered the Atlético team's goal.
Although this sudden cold shot did not score directly, Ricardo could not catch the ball no matter how fast he reacted. His subconscious save was rare. At this time, he had no way to control the ball that bounced out.
An absolute gap, which was enough to leave the Porto striker with a chance to make up the shot. The clever Del Rey did not waste such a shooting space. He made up a shot that made Ricardo very helpless.
With 25 minutes left in the game, Porto relied on a make-up shot to turn the score on the field into 1:2, and Del Rey excitedly hugged Lin Yi and shouted at the kid loudly. It was a stroke of genius by this kid that reversed the situation on the field.
Without enough offensive power, the Athletic team, which was defending all the players, repeated the experience at the Luminous Stadium. At this time, Ignacio could only helplessly lean on the bench, staring at the black-haired kid running on the field.
When the game reached the 85th minute, Lin Yi's breakthrough caused Paito and another midfielder Sedrad to foul, winning a direct free kick at the top of the penalty area. Deco did not miss such an opportunity. His arc ball directly passed Ricardo's fingertips and hit the net heavily.
2:2! When the score appeared on the big screen, the Alvalade Stadium was silent. It took Porto only more than 20 minutes to go from 2:0 to 2:2, while Sporting Lisbon could only passively take the beating on its own territory.
"Inacio, get out!" Crazy shouts burst out in an instant, and the fans of Sporting Lisbon shouted angrily. Now no one can tolerate such a result. They need to vent and roar!
Twice! Twice! In more than a month, the idiot Inacio fell into Mourinho's hands twice in a row! And he lost to the same player!
All the fans were roaring. Didn't the idiot Inacio know what the little guy named Lin Yi could do? Why didn't he put Chris on the court to continue the attack! It was that despicable coward who killed Sporting Lisbon's hope!
The noisy stadium sound has drowned out Porto's goal celebration, but it can't drown out the trust of those teammates in Lin Yi. This kid has proved his worth in training, and now he has proved that he can do better in the game.
Mourinho watched all this with satisfaction. The boy's adaptability was as strong as his own. He had integrated into the team in just one month. He won the trust of his teammates with the game and told everyone with such a crazy performance that he was gradually getting stronger!
Thirty minutes, one assist created a free kick. Lin Yi let Brazilian striker Del Rey and front midfielder Deco score a goal each. If it weren't for the short time left in the game, no one knew how many holes this boy would poke in the defense of the Athletic team.
But it doesn't matter. Now it's enough. With the curse of the entire Alvalade Stadium, Porto climbed to the second place in the league standings, and one of its two main opponents had been left behind, and the situation of the other one became difficult.
Especially when being interviewed after the game, this may be the first time that Lin Yi accepted an interview with the local media in Lisbon after the transfer. He used a very simple way to deal with all the reporters' questions about all the doubts between him and Benfica.
"Because an idiot doesn't like me in Benfica, I can only pack up and leave, but fortunately, at least I'm not unemployed."
"Thanks to Villariño's generosity, he only received 100,000 euros from Porto to sell me. I think he must think it's a good deal."
"I miss Benfica fans because they used to cheer for me, but I won't miss some idiots. Wish him good luck."
Lin Yi's answer to reporters was very simple, because he didn't want to mention that idiot guy again. He lived happily in Porto, but such an answer was no different from slapping Villariño in the face again.
God said that when someone hits you on one side of the face, let him hit the other side. When Lin Yi heard this for the first time, his first reaction was that the person was really mean. Now he found that this phenomenon really exists in reality, such as the idiot Villariño.
If you don't beat him to death, he will always be frustrated, so open your heart and beat him. . .
It is still unknown how much Benfica will react to Lin Yi's words to the media, but Benfica's situation is obviously worse than that of Sporting Lisbon, because their results have shrunk significantly.
From five points to one point, Benfica is squandering the slight advantage they have accumulated. Three wins and two losses are all the results that the guy named Tony has achieved with Benfica since he took office. No Benfica fan is not complaining about his incompetence.
Villariño may be the most embarrassed person at this time. Not only does he have to deal with those difficult media, but he also has to find a way to explain to the board of directors. It was already depressing enough to be poached by competitors, and now he has to incur criticism from countless fans.
Because the two players who were poached have firmly established their foothold in Porto, Mourinho is leading Porto to a strong top, which has once again proved how annoying Villariño's idiotic behavior was.
Although those Lisbon newspapers still needed to attack Porto's bandit-like behavior, each of them was cursing Villariño in their hearts, because it was this guy who ruined Benfica's best chance of winning the championship.
When the pants lose their belts, you will understand what dependence means. Now Benfica has lost its belt. . .
The unlucky Atlético, and the even more unlucky Benfica, can only watch Porto start the engine and attack frantically. . .
