In the locker room of the home team, Xia Ze was sitting in his own place, slowly putting on his socks and sneakers. The sound of teammates tidying up their equipment came from all around, mixed with the sound of head coach Martins' routine pre-match tactical arrangements .

The seat next to Zhang Wei, which originally belonged to Zhang Wei, was vacant half a year ago. And after this game, the seat he was sitting in will also be vacant. This may be the last time he changes clothes in this locker room.

"Xia Ze, come on, do better today!" A voice came from in front of Xia Ze.

He raised his head and found that Captain Brigle was looking at him with a smile. Xia Ze immediately smiled back and gave him a high five. After the captain, the other team members also came over to say a few words of encouragement to Xia Ze.

"Xia Ze, today's game belongs to you, perform well." Di Keao came up last from the group and said hesitantly.

"Thank you, the team will rely on you in the future." Hug him gently. Although Dicko seems to have alienated himself a lot in recent months, he is the first friend he met in Portugal after all.

"Okay, be serious, this game is very important, we must win it!" Martins clapped his hands and shouted after everyone bid farewell to Xia Ze, bringing their attention back to this game Come in the game.

"Dear audience friends, welcome to the live broadcast of the Portuguese Super League brought to you. Today's game is Maritimo's home game against Braga. I am Christine. I will comment on this game with you today. There was also Rui Costa for the game."

In a bar in Funchal, Maritimo fans gathered to watch two middle-aged men appear on the TV screen.

"The two opponents in today's game were previously ranked third and fifth in the league, and they are both strong contenders for the UEFA Champions League next season. However, the focus of this game is not here, because this game This is the last match of Maritimo player Xia Ze in the Portuguese Super League. On January 1 next year, he will officially transfer to the Premier League team Everton. Rui, what do you think of Xia Ze’s prospects in the Premier League?" Christine said while looking at the close-up of Xia Ze on the screen.

"I was really surprised when the news of Xia Ze signing for Everton came out on Monday. I didn't expect him to find another shirt so quickly after he failed to move to Tottenham in the summer. Obviously this is Because his ability is really outstanding." Rui Costa first praised Xia Ze.

"As for his prospects in the Premier League, I am quite optimistic. After all, he has exquisite skills and the most important thing is his strong willpower. The Premier League is a very fierce competition.

Many players who have transferred from other leagues cannot adapt because they are intimidated by the defenders in the Premier League. I believe Xia Ze will not be like this, he will be successful in the Premier League. "

"Okay, thank you Rui, I am also very optimistic about him." Christine said with a smile: "Okay, players from both sides have come out!"

In Christine's slightly excited voice, players from both sides appeared in front of the TV cameras and lined up to enter the Dos Barreiros Stadium.

This stadium, which can accommodate more than 10,000 people, has already filled the stands with spectators. When the players came out, thunderous cheers came from the surrounding stands, and the momentum was no weaker than a stadium with 40,000 to 50,000 people.

Xia Ze walked at the back of the team, with his head slightly lowered, feeling the cheers of the fans around him, but he had mixed feelings in his heart: the last game!

After the players from both sides lined up, they shook hands, and the emcee at the scene was also introducing the starting rosters of both sides. When he read Xia Ze's name, more than 10,000 fans in the audience burst into cheers like a tsunami , gave his team's hero his highest decibel cheers for the last game in Maritimo.

In the stands behind the coach's dugout, a huge banner was unfurled among the fans and read:

"Xia Ze, Dos Barreiros Stadium will always be your home!"

Xia Ze had already seen this slogan when he lined up. He thought that the Chinese would do such a sensational thing in the future, but he didn't expect the Maritimo fans to do the same.

It was Monica's brother with a big beard who made this banner. Xia Ze also saw Monica's figure from inside the stadium, and felt even more strange in his heart.

After the master of ceremonies finished reading the game list, the stand where Monica was located loudly sang the song "Let him play!" in support of Xia Ze! ", the singing spread rapidly from a small stand, and tens of seconds later, the stands around the entire Barreiros Stadium were singing this song loudly.

The performance of the Maritimo fans at the scene even moved the fans of the visiting team. And Christine simply said that this is a great moment for Maritimo fans.

Indeed, even though they abused Xia Zexia after his unsuccessful transfer in summer, everyone knew that it was because of their love for Xia Ze.

And when they figured out that Xia Ze would leave the team sooner or later, the generosity they showed was enough to move everyone.

Martins on the coach's bench is not just moved. As the team's head coach, he knows the importance of this game better than the fans.

The gap with Braga is only 4 points, and the fourth-ranked Sporting Lisbon behind them is only 2 points behind their own team. If they are not careful, they may be overtaken by their opponents at any time.

So this game, whether it is to give Xia Ze a perfect curtain call, or for the team's impact on the Champions League in the second half of the season, this game must be won!

This kind of opposite also exists in Xia Ze's mind. He wants to dedicate this victory to the Maritimo fans who have always supported him.

This is the last gift.

At the beginning of the game, Maritimo completely suppressed Braga amid the cheers of the fans. Xia Ze's organization and scheduling in the midfield pulled the opponent's defense line to the maximum and created a great momentum for Quaresma and other forwards. More room for breakthrough.

In the 5th minute of the opening, Artur passed to Quaresma from the left side of the front court. Quaresma, who had already opened up the space, faced the opponent's right back one-on-one.

Braga's players obviously knew Quaresma's breakthrough ability. Although he was 31 years old, two people came up to help defend, the right winger and the right back pressed against Quaresma one after the other.

"Ricardo, here!" In the middle, Xia Ze ran to Quaresma to meet him under the entanglement of the opponent's midfielder.

Quaresma calmly protected the ball, and looked up at Xia Ze, only to see that while Xia Ze asked for the ball, his right hand was pointing behind him.

He immediately understood what was going on, and instead of passing the ball to Xia Ze, he tapped his heel lightly and stuffed the ball to the baseline.

A red and green figure cut behind him at high speed! c
