Chapter 447: The Second Half of the League
At Mendes' cocktail party, Gao Yuan met with a group of European football leaders.
He is no longer an unknown person now. Many European footballers have taken the initiative to talk to him and say hello.
The managers of several European giant clubs gave them business cards, hoping that Gao Yuan would consider coaching at their place.
What made Gao Yuan most happy was that Ronaldo actually told him:
"I have always been paying attention to the team in my hometown, and I really appreciate your tactical playing style and the achievements you have achieved in leading the team. I hope that one day I can work together."
The recognition from the Portuguese King of Football made Gao Yuan excited.
So, have I reached this height?!
However, it's not enough! Ronaldo just said that he would cooperate with him and I would continue to work hard. One day, when Ronaldo saw him, he would excitedly say that he would serve under his command!
However, considering Ronaldo's age, he has to hurry up!
During the winter break in Portugal, Gao Yuan took time to visit Germany and spent a few days with Xiaoxia.
Then he flew to Portugal, and then transferred to two major regions, selected several good seedlings, and the negotiation team of Yuanshuai Company followed up to negotiate.
The team regrouped, trained and prepared for the second half of the league.
Due to punishment, players' transfer registration cannot be registered. Therefore, in the second registration after the league's winter window opened, only a few players from the first team and the reserve team were adjusted. Gao Yuan's "traveling around the world" signed by Gao Yuan still failed to register and could only wait for the summer transfer window to open half a year later.
Therefore, the most attractive change of Maridimo to the Portuguese Super League second registration list this season is that the identity of "team soul" Antonio has changed from "captain" to "captain and coach".
Gao Yuan also deliberately trained Antonio in subsequent training and competitions. As long as he did not play, he would answer his questions and answer questions in the game site and guide him step by step.
Just like what Li Xiaopeng did to him back then.
In the following days, Maridimo, as Gao Yuan expected, as the league deepened, the players' abilities became more and more refined, and their cooperation became more and more tacit. Gao Yuan's tactical concepts were implemented more and more deeply, and the team's combat power became stronger and stronger.
If there are still some more or less problems in the first half of the game, then after more than half a year of running-in, the team's problems have gradually been overcome and solved, and they are completely leading the league standings with crushing resources.
In addition, the "Three Portuguese Super League" behind him encountered various problems because they were distracted by European competitions and the need to get in with new players in the winter window. They were all over the place and were left farther and farther in the standings by Maridimo, who had a well-roamed lineup.
Maridimo's odds for winning the championship have risen from last to first place to first place, with 1.9 losses!
Such odds indicate that the dealer is very optimistic about Maridimo. In the eyes of international traders, Maridimo is very champion!
Gao Yuan's reputation is also accumulating more and more in the continuous winning game. It is optimistic that if you can win the championship this season, then with all the bonuses, you will definitely be able to buy Gao Yuan's long-awaited "nuclear weapon modifier"!
The only one that can still pose a little threat to Maridimo is the only "Three Portuguese Super League". In order to maintain the dignity of the old strong team, the three teams have put in their efforts to stop Maridimo from advancing.
Among them, the one who was most dissatisfied was Portuguese Sports coach Ruben Amorin.
Although the young coach has a poor record and is currently only ranked fifth in the standings, and has even been overwhelmed by Braga. His coaching position is in turmoil, but he has always been obsessed with Maridimo.
He was a little disdainful of the achievements made by Gao Yuan, who was also a young coach. He thought he was just lucky. In the early stage, other teams did not pay attention to Maridimo and took advantage of the loopholes. In the later stage, it was because they did not have to be distracted from European battles and could concentrate on playing the league with all their strength.
Although Portugal Sports has been eliminated in the Europa League, this has not affected Ruben Amorin at all. He felt that Maridimo had taken advantage of it.
Especially the failure of the last confrontation made the Portuguese young coach feel even more worried.
Although he lost 1:3 in the end of that game, Ruben Amorin believed that he lost to the FIFA virus, not by his opponent.
As he said at the press conference after that game: "I don't think my team is inferior to Maridimo, it's just that we are seriously affected by the FIFA virus! I'm looking forward to the next battle with Maridimo! I will show them real strength!"
Now, the opportunity for revenge is in front of him.
In order to fight the battle of revenge, he even strategically gave up the Portuguese Cup before the game and was eliminated by Guimaraes, who was not strong.
Being slandered by the fans' insults to be shouted "out of class", we must also play the battle against Maridimo.
This time he has ranked the strongest lineup at Dos Barorés Stadium, and the players' condition is also well maintained under his deliberate adjustment.
"This time there is no FIFA virus, I want you to see the true strength of Portuguese sports!" Ruben Amorin gritted his teeth.
The competition begins.
The tactic arranged by Ruben Amorin is to grab the start.
He fully learned the lessons from the first game. At that time, due to the influence of the FIFA virus, his team was unable to get into the state for a long time and was taken over by Maridimo. As a result, he did not recover from the entire game.
The players of Portugal Sports faithfully implemented the head coach's tactics.
As soon as the kick-off was launched, the offensive players rushed towards Maridimo's defense line like wolves and tigers.
The ball didn't even pass back, and hit it forward.
Winter Raphael drew the ball and rushed in, and his momentum was like a tiger. He rushed for a full 30 meters, and then... there was no more.
Raphael didn't notice that he had been taken to a dead end.
When they were shocked, the ball had been cut off by Joao and Danso.
Portugal Sports, who was pressing forward with all their strength, instantly changed from offense to defense.
"Stop him! Be more domineering! Momentum is very important!" Ruben Amorin roared loudly on the sidelines.
His players had received instructions before the game and must have momentum at the beginning. Even if it is a foul, as long as they show a tough attitude, they will make no mistakes!
The defensive player is ready to take the ball and just wait for the opponent to bring the ball up, give the opponent a look.
But unexpectedly, Danso cut the ball and passed it to Ruo'ang, who passed it to Zhou Yong again, and the ball hit the foot of Fengseka on the right, transitioning from left to right.
Then Fengseka passed it to Jora, Jora passed it to Zhou Yong, Zhou Yong handed it to Joao who was receiving it, and Joao passed it to Liu Yun who was in front, and the ball was hit back to the left.
Liu Yun did not break through, and he passed to Wang Zi in the middle lane again...
In this way, the ball went from left to right, and from right to left, almost everyone touched the ball, but no one stuck it.
The ball was circling around the feet of different players, without stopping at all, as if it was a smooth music, everyone was the leaping notes in it, so soothing that they unknowingly poured the ball to the frontcourt.
This wave of passes lasted for two or three minutes, and the Porto players didn't know who to look for if they wanted to commit a foul.
Ruben Amorin was as confused as his players: "Aren't Maridi used to counterattacking quickly? Why is it that he has changed his sex and has also started to pass the pass, and it is still so smoothly!"
Just when the Portuguese sports team was unclear, the ball had already developed to the front of the opponent's penalty area without knowing it.
Without any warning, Maridimo suddenly exerted force!
The ball came to Vukovych's feet. Vukovych made a fake move to continue passing the ball, but suddenly strided heavily to drive the ball into the penalty area.
Because the incident happened suddenly, Portugal Sports was not prepared for it, and Vukovych buckled one of his left foot and another of his right foot.
Afterwards, Vukovic shot!
The ball ran towards the dead corner. The Portuguese sports people felt a chill in their hearts and were about to lose the ball!
Unfortunately, the ball that Vukovic hastily shot too much for the angle and flew out of the bottom line against the pillar.
"Oh!" The fans at home burst into regret.
Ruben Amorin, who survived the disaster, also wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Chapter completed!
