There is a dream called football

During the home game against Boavista, reporter Lopez from "Record" came to the scene to report.

"I didn't expect that Jose only rotated Deco in this game."

"You have to know that there is a match against AC Milan in the middle of the week."

Normally, in the league games before the Champions League, Mourinho would show his love for everyone, which made the Portuguese domestic media quite dissatisfied, but this time there was no such situation.

However, the reporter may have misunderstood. In fact, Mourinho did this to test the results of Li Qiao's special free kick training.

Lopez also quickly noticed that Porto's second free kick shooter should have been Maniche, but today whenever a free kick was awarded, it was Li Qiao who took the kick.

Li Qiao took a free kick from the left wing. The arc and angle were good, but McCarthy in the penalty area did not hit the ball.

The South African gave Li Qiao a thumbs up and said, "Not bad, not bad, you passed the ball very well."

The game is basically one-sided. In the Portuguese Super League, except for Benfica and Sporting Lisbon, which can compete with Porto, it is indeed difficult for others to compare with them. Boavista is even more in the middle and lower reaches of the league.

Team.

Li Qiao gradually understood why young people want to train in leagues other than the five major leagues. For example, if he was in the Premier League, the coach would not be so luxurious to give you a game to train.

In the first half, McCarthy scored a goal from Maniche's assist, and then Del Rey scored a goal with his own personal breakthrough.

The first half ended with Boavista leading 2-0, and Deco came over when the players came off the field.

"Joe, you should be more relaxed when taking free kicks. The opponent is just Boavista. They are very weak. You don't need to think so much."

"Thank you, Deco."

The two patted each other.

The game is not important, but there are many big names in the stands, the biggest of which is AC Milan's current head coach Carlo Ancelotti.

An Pang came to Porto just to inspect his opponents.

As the coach of the defending champion, An Pang's goal is to achieve the hegemony of defending the Champions League. This is also a height that no one can reach after the Champions League restructuring.

Of course, another purpose of the inspection is to see if there are suitable players who can start, such as McCarthy, he is very hopeful, a bit like George Beah of AC Milan.

In addition, An Pang is also very interested in Porto's No. 7, "This No. 7 is very good. Except for lack of experience, everything else is good."

What Ancelotti didn't know was that there were many scouts from other teams at the scene who also held the same view as him.

For example, Everton and Newcastle have both sent their own scouts to inspect Porto players, preparing to take action in the summer.

European football is a cruel food chain, where the weak eat the strong. As a team in the Portuguese Super League, it is inevitable to contribute players to the five major leagues.

Even Mourinho himself has become a target, with many big clubs already eyeing him and preparing to have serious talks with him in the coming months.

*****

Lopez has already foreseen the future of this Porto team, which is to be broken up and sold one by one in the summer.

He is Portuguese. Portugal is a small country and it is impossible for leagues like Germany and England to be born.

This is determined by the market size. For example, if there are 20,000 people in a city, how can you build a stadium for 50,000 people? Where will the additional income come from?

So this is not the fault of Portuguese football, it must be this way.

"I think the better Porto's results, the greater the chance they will become a player supermarket in the summer."

This is the last thing fans want to hear, but they have to admit that it is indeed right.

"So we should enjoy the best of Porto."

Sosa was watching football at home today. When he heard what Lopez said, he almost smashed the TV in anger. Fortunately, Lorinda was there to persuade him.

"Dad, don't get excited. Why are you trying to compete with the TV?"

"This bastard actually said that Porto will become a players' supermarket. I want to write a letter to complain against him, this bastard."

Lorinda smiled and said: "Dad, if you want to complain, why don't you call or write a letter? What era is it?"

sweat!

"Dad, let me ask you something."

"What?"

"If Li Qiao really goes abroad to play football, will you go with him?"

A banging sound.

Sosa's head was buzzing.

He had not thought about this problem. In his imagination, Li Qiao would stay in Portugal forever, just like Eusebio, but...

Times have changed now.

Pele and Eusebio could play football in their own country for the rest of their lives, but it is impossible now. Those who can do it will definitely go to the five major leagues.

Seeing Sosa stunned, Lorinda pushed her father and said, "What's wrong?"

"nothing."

"Daughter, Li Qiao will stay, at least in the next few years, he will definitely stay."

Lorinda didn't want to complain about her father, so she nodded, "Of course, Li Qiao is reluctant to leave."

*****

Porto got a good free kick in front of the penalty area. Li Qiao stood in front of the ball and Boavista formed a wall of 6 people.

"Just like in training."

Li Qiao told himself over and over again in his mind.

Li Qiao glanced at the upper left corner behind the wall, where the ball was targeted.

Boavista's goalkeeper stood on the goal line and was ready. He had already fished 3 balls out of the goal, and he didn't want to keep fishing for more balls.

Li Qiao started to run, relaxed his whole body, and touched the ball with the inside of his instep. When the arch of his foot touched the ball, he felt that it felt right.

"It feels good."

Deco on the bench couldn't help but stand up, because based on his experience, this ball is worth playing.

A beautiful arc passed through the sky above the wall, and then began to fall. The Boavista goalkeeper pounced and was out of reach.

The ball flew into the upper left corner, and Li Qiao started cheering. He rushed to Deco, knelt down on one knee, and wiped Deco's shoes. This was a tribute on the court.

"So beautiful."

Although the opponent is not strong, I have to say that this ball is beautiful, with good angle and speed.

Mourinho also came over to hug Li Qiao. Although his free kicks are still very unstable and cannot be compared with Deco in actual combat, he is indeed improving very quickly. Mourinho sees this every day. The most important thing is

The thing is that he is very diligent.

At the end of the game, Porto defeated their opponent 4-0. After the game, Ancelotti will return to Milan as soon as possible. He will challenge Porto at home next week. Judging from today's state, that will not be easy.

game.

"He will be a difficult guy to deal with," Ancelotti thought to himself.
