Midfielder

Chapter 55 The feeling of a champion

The failure of a game cast a shadow on Porto's journey in the League Cup, but Mourinho is now thinking most about the weekend league, after all, it is related to the final championship. Although Santa Clara is not a big deal, he hopes to eliminate all possibilities.

Maybe losing the game 0:1 in Athens is not a bad thing. Fatigue may be a key reason for Porto's defeat, but after winning Benfica, the entire team has overestimated the future games.

Blind arrogance is always the most deadly enemy of the team. The Greeks taught the Portuguese a lesson with their strong bodies at this time.

Although this blow hurts a bit, it still leaves Porto with a chance to turn the tables. Perhaps the cruel reality can make these guys sober up, at least let them understand that they are not an invincible team and they will lose.

However, Mourinho also feels a little headache about Panathinaikos's strong defensive counterattack. After all, it is really stressful to play against a bunch of big guys over 1.9 meters tall. In away games, they always have to be careful of the threat of set pieces.

In order to prevent the opponent's high-altitude bombing, Mourinho even arranged 4 people on the back line, but the height disadvantage did not allow Porto to take any advantage. If it were not for the opponent's shooting accuracy, the score might not have been 1:0.

It was really unpleasant to have a group of high-altitude bombers circling in their own penalty area, but Porto's back line could not be raised overnight. Now maybe it's time to consider how to deal with those big guys.

How to deal with the opponent's high-altitude bombing is really a very headache problem. Mourinho has been thinking on the plane back to Portugal.

The physical consumption of double games in a week is very large, especially after a long journey in Greece. Porto's physical coach is also a little worried about the recovery progress. He dare not guarantee that every player can recover from fatigue smoothly. After all, they have experienced a season of consumption.

But the past few years have missed the league championship, and Porto has not allowed anything unfavorable to happen in their home court. Even Mourinho does not want things to have any twists and turns. He must ask everyone to go all out.

The head coach of Santa Clara should probably go to the ancient East, or he should find someone to teach him how to turn over the old calendar, because this night might not be suitable for him to command the game on the opponent's territory.

Because he is about to face a group of Porto people who are as fierce as wolves and tigers. These crazy guys will vent all the anger they got in Greece three days ago on the poor Santa Clara team. There is no reason to tilt the anger.

The law of the jungle is also universal in the football circle, and the Porto people will definitely make it more cruel.

Maybe now this unlucky coach should curse those damn Greeks. Why did they have to provoke these Porto people? Now it's good. It's not them who will bear the anger, but the Santa Clara team he leads.

The weak Santa Clara team never expected to create any miracles in the Dragon Stadium. They would not even consider the issue of a draw. Even their head coach told his assistant coach before leaving that in the game with Porto, they would win if they lost less.

This is not that Santa Clara is belittling themselves, but they know that even if they fight to the death with these Porto players, no miracle will happen. One is the first in the league, and the other is the third from the bottom in the league. This is the Portuguese Super League, and the gap in strength is so great.

Even when Porto was in a slump at the beginning of the league, they could easily defeat Santa Clara with a 3:0 away game. Moreover, now these Porto players have made up their minds to win the league championship. Santa Clara does not want to be an ant blocking Porto's chariot.

The game was just as the unlucky coach expected. Mourinho would not let such a game have any accidents. He could even directly arrange a 4-3-3 offensive formation. Deco still replaced Lin Yi in the position of front midfielder.

Kapshu and Dallei still hold their main striker positions. Maniche and Russian Alenichev will tear apart Santa Clara's defense from the wing respectively. Costinha's back midfielder position was moved forward to the vicinity of the center circle. Mourinho needs to suppress, fiercely suppress.

Porto's defense line is composed of all the main players. Mourinho and Porto don't want to waste time and mood on such an opponent. They not only want to win the game, but also want to win beautifully.

This is the last game of the Portuguese Super League. Porto's closing game is to give tens of thousands of fans on the scene a happy enjoyment. The miserable Santa Clara team has become the best foil. They don't even have the right to say no.

Now the only thing that makes the fans who came to the scene regretful is that they can't see the black-haired boy on the bench. It seems that Porto has lost a little fun without this little guy. His breakthrough and pass always make people feel a kind of enjoyment.

As for where the little guy that the fans want to see the most is? In fact, Lin Yi, who has been discharged from the hospital, is also in the Dragon Stadium at this moment, but his task now is not to prepare for the battle, but to take care of the children with Mourinho's wife Tammy.

This is the first task Lin Yi received after returning from the hospital. Want to play in the game? Mourinho doesn't want Lin Yi to take risks. The kid's leg injury is not a big deal, but it seems unnecessary to let him play in such a game.

Besides, Mourinho still has a lot of use for him. In such a game, there is no need to let a kid who has just recovered from injury to destroy the city for Porto. It is only a matter of time to win the opponent. As for how much to win, it depends on the reaction of the fans and the motivation of the players.

Oh, by the way, there is another point, that is, how much bonus Chairman Da Costa is prepared to pay for winning the game. Maybe these crazy people will empty his pockets.

The most important thing is that Mourinho has heard that this kid is very "comfortable" in the hospital, because when the team doctor picked him up, he found that at least half of the female nurses in the hospital were looking for various excuses to stroll into the room where Lin Yi was.

They either pinched Lin Yi's little face or took advantage of the opportunity of physical examination to eat his tofu. Anyway, the scene was very erotic.

Seeing that he was recovering so comfortably, the team doctor originally did not intend to disturb the little guy's "elegance", but when Lin Yi saw the team doctor coming, he almost hugged the savior's thigh and pounded the floor and cried.

"Help... Save me from this wolf's den..." Lin Yi cried for help. He could no longer bear the miserable experience of being surrounded by a group of female hooligans. He had been living a life worse than death this week. Being touched by a group of female perverts every day was actually quite painful.

It's not only women who are harassed by that, men are the same. For example, it is difficult for a little boy like Lin Yi to escape the clutches of some women.

"Uh, babysitter? No! Children of this age are more terrible than Satan!" When Lin Yi heard the task given to him by Mourinho, his head was big, especially when he saw the two little devils stumbling towards him together, he could feel his legs aching again.

There is no way, because this boy's face is too deceptive. He can completely win over young and old, because Mourinho's daughter has left at least a dozen saliva marks on his face, and this is just the beginning, not the end.

But now no one noticed Lin Yi's embarrassed expression. Everyone's attention was focused on the field. Porto's attack had spread to Santa Clara's half since the opening.

The attack led by Deco was extremely fierce. Almost every pass could tear the opponent's defense. In the first five minutes of the game, Porto had tried 3 shots, one of which almost scored. If the opponent's defender hadn't reacted quickly enough, the ball might have gone in.

Santa Clara's luck was good enough. They even blocked Deco's close-range shot on the goal line, but the gap in strength still forced them to accept the arrangement of fate after persisting for 15 minutes.

Dallei received Deco's back pass at the bottom line, and his close-range shot was enough to make the opponent's goalkeeper despair. With this goal, the entire Dragon Stadium was roaring, and Porto was close to the league championship trophy.

Now there is nothing that can stop them from moving forward. I am afraid that those who support Benfica have subconsciously chosen to turn off the TV. The miracle they expect is no longer possible. This season is probably over for Benfica.

Villariño's team got nothing. They even gave up the fight for the cup in the middle of the league, but now this gamble has become empty talk because of a few idiots. Maybe the fat man is starting to regret it now, but it's too late.

Compared with Benfica and Sporting Lisbon, who are empty-handed, Porto now has at least the opportunity to win two championships. The league championship has basically been narrowed at this moment, and now they still have the opportunity to make a breakthrough in the UEFA Cup.

Portugal's top three competition has now become a monopoly, and even Boavista has entered the quarterfinals of the UEFA Cup. I really don't know what Benfica and Athletic will look like when they see such a result. Maybe they ask God why.

1:0 is not the end of the story. This goal not only adds an insurance to Porto's championship, but also makes these guys like a group of hungry sharks. After smelling the blood, they will not give up the possibility of killing.

2:0, 3:0, the rapid change of the score has made the coach of Santa Clara pale. A small loss is a loss. Now it is not a small loss. Looking at this situation, the massacre is likely to continue. This night is too cruel for Santa Clara.

In particular, every goal will fill the entire Dragon Stadium with explosive cheers. Even Da Costa no longer cares about his identity as the chairman at this time. He raised his hands and cheered for every goal.

5:0, this was the score at the end of the first half. Mourinho had already seen his opponent lose all his fighting spirit. He replaced his three main frontcourt players. At this time, he no longer had to consider the possibility of the opponent's comeback, and his next goal was no longer the league.

At this time, some people even started to set off fireworks around the Dragon Stadium. This was not to underestimate the Santa Clara team, but now even they themselves knew that there would be no more accidents in this game.

Well, of course, if you put a national men's football team on the field, something unexpected might happen. It is a team that often surprises people. You have to believe in its ability to create miracles.

When the 90-minute game whistle sounded, the score of 7:0 was frozen on the electronic big screen. At this time, no one cared how badly Santa Clara lost, and no one cared about their life and death and mood.

The only ones who could still remember them were the referee and Mourinho on the sidelines. If it weren't for the gentlemanly performance, I'm afraid Mourinho would have celebrated the championship with Da Costa long ago, instead of standing here and shaking hands with a defeated general.

Now the Dragon Stadium only needs to revel in the carnival. Tens of thousands of fans and the entire stadium are surrounded by gorgeous fireworks and cheers. Lin Yi is also standing on the sidelines holding the restless little guy, enjoying his first league championship.

This is a season of many changes for Lin Yi. Perhaps such a scene may make Lin Yi feel more, because this year has been full of variables for him.

From playing soccer to joining the Serbatur youth team, and then from an apprentice in the youth team to a professional player, from Serbatur to Benfica, and then from Benfica to Porto, he experienced in less than a year what other players might only experience in a few years.

Now he finally enjoyed the taste of the championship, and he also contributed to this championship. He is not a person who comes here to live a lazy life.

He can win the championship by participating in only ten rounds of the league. This may be a lucky guy in the eyes of others, but using ten rounds of games to overtake the gap of 5 points, especially killing the opponent in his own home court, anyone who watched the game will not say that this kid is a lucky person.

He changed everything with his feet, including his own destiny, including Porto's chance to win. At least the city of Porto has remembered his existence and everything he has done on the court.

"This is the feeling of a champion. The fireworks tonight are really brilliant. I hope this is just the beginning..." Lin Yi hugged the little girl who was still biting his face and sighed.

Portuguese Super League champion, Lin Yi's first honor. Although he only participated in ten rounds, he has engraved his name on the league championship trophy.

This is just the beginning. . . The League Cup is still waving to Porto. . .

(Speaking of the men's basketball team's promotion road is so weird, Puerto Rico has cried twice in a row... This is too tragic... By the way, I really want a school beauty from Beijing Film Academy to say that if the men's basketball team advances, she will appear in public without any clothes. I am looking forward to this, hehe...)
