Chapter 164: Repositioning (the first guarantee)

Can not help but Rexos won, and Guimarães even won.

Lexos won last season's ninth Boavista, and Guimarães won last season's tenth Portuguese national.

In the first four rounds, the two newly promoted Rexos and Guimarães faced all the top ten teams in the previous season. Guimarães’ opponents also include Porto and Benfica, and Lexos’s opponents. There are Benfica and Boavista, but Rexos remains unbeaten, and Guimarães only lost to Porto and Rexos.

The strength of the two newly promoted horses really shocked the entire Portuguese Super League team. The original promoted horse was almost synonymous with fish belly, but this season, the promoted horse has become synonymous with dark horses.

In terms of fame, strength, and influence, Boavista can’t be compared with Benfica, but Boavista is a close neighbor of Rexos and can be regarded as a Derby opponent, although Porto and Boavista have never been. Look at Lexus as a derby opponent.

Winning at the door of a Derby opponent's home is a joy that can be compared to defeating a giant team.

After the fourth round, the Lexos fans on the forum were excited, excited, and swollen.

"Don't Boavista think he's very good, now the second place in the Porto region may not be kept."

"Rexos is now second. We are not second in Porto, we are second in Portugal."

"Keep working hard! We will be the dark horse!"

"Pull Porto off the horse!"

"A dark horse that doesn't want to be a leader is not a good newly promoted horse!"

The fans were happy and excited. Naturally they wanted to brag, and the media contributed to it. In their comments after the game, they called Lexos a potential dark horse for this season. They believed that they would continue to play like this and there would be no problem with relegation. There is hope of reaching the European arena next season.

The team won, and there was a lot of praise on the Internet and in the news. Some inexperienced Portuguese Premier League rookies probably didn't know their surnames at this time, but Oliveira made a five-fifth in the Portuguese Premier League and the top league of the year. After going up, up and down, the painful lessons have given him insight into the profound meaning of survival in the Portuguese Super League.

After the league, Oliveira was very low-key and very sober at the press conference after the match. He said: "The record of 3 wins and 1 tie in four rounds is gratifying. Such a victory will give Our greater confidence allows us to play well in the subsequent games, but we must not think that we have the second strength in the league. We must not forget our original intention. We are a rookie in the Portuguese Super League. Our first priority is to relegation. Relegation is our only task. We don’t have stars. We are a civilian team. Our biggest advantage is that we can fight hard, we can fight, and the skills are not enough. We can use running to make up for it. If we can’t even fight our opponents, we can even run. But opponents, then we only have to lose."

Oliveira not only asked fans and players to calmly deal with the hot start at the press conference, but also strengthened the requirements of the players during training. Anyone who has the slightest slack will be severely reprimanded by him. Midfielder Paul He was late for training and was fined a thousand euros by Oliveira, and the team did a review.

Cup matches are often the favorite matches of middle and lower teams. The league champions do not have their share. Many teams put their ideas on the cup matches, but Oliveira was not tempted at all, and the Portuguese United with Leiria in the middle of the week. In the third lap of the Cup, Oliveira continued to be on the bench. They failed to perform a miracle this time. Rexos, who played off the bench, was defeated by Leiria with 2 goals and lost the fourth lap of the Portuguese League Cup. Opportunity.

This makes many Lexos fans very dissatisfied. They think that even if they don’t want to work hard in the Portuguese League Cup, they can’t just do it like this. They must have a professional spirit and take every cup and league seriously, just like Lexo. In this way, what's the point of holding this cup?

On the Internet, Lexos fans are divided into two factions. One faction thinks that the cup should be taken seriously. The other faction thinks that the cup cannot be won. In the end, the championship is the top three. What is the difference between playing well and playing well? It's better to play well in the league, and don't repeat the mistakes of 19 years ago.

It is inevitable for the Lexos players to have their tails curled after winning consecutive Benfica and Boavista, but the Portuguese nationals immediately taught Lexos a lesson in the fifth round.

Last season, the Portuguese nationals ranked 10th. Their strength cannot be compared with Lexos Benfica and Lexos. In the last round they lost to Guimarães 0:1, and they are stronger than Guimarães. In Lexos, the Portuguese nationals also know themselves, and they did not rely on the old to sell the old. They lowered their stance and used a defensive counterattack to deal with Lexos when they were away.

In the first four games, in addition to playing Guimarães, Rexos was all in a big game, and then took the opportunity to sneak attacks, never encountered a defensive counterattack opponent.

Facing the defensive counterattack of the Portuguese nationals from the Portuguese super-old fritters, the technically rough Rexos had no good way to score, except for Gao Xiaodong's long shot and set-up, but Gao Xiaodong's long shot was closely guarded by his opponent. , There is no way to calmly start, and the positioning ball lacks a strong center, it is difficult to threaten the national team's goal, and the national team's counterattack has caused Lexos's frontline soldiers to be in chaos every time.

That is, Lexos has three running midfielders, and Gao Xiaodong's speed has been qualitatively improved, otherwise Lexos's home court will fall into the hands of the Portuguese national team.

Throughout the game, the Portuguese national team gave Rexos possession of the ball and played a defensive counterattack. However, throughout the game, Rexos had very few opportunities to enter the Portuguese national team’s penalty area and shot far. The Portuguese national team's threat and number of shots are far more than Rexos, if it is not bad luck, hit a goal post in 85 minutes, the Portuguese national team may take away 3 points from the March stadium.

In the end, Rexos, who had previously won three wins and one tie, reluctantly shook hands with the weakest opponent Portugal Nationals in the first five rounds at home 0:0.

In other competitions, Porto remained brave. After defeating Ferreira 2-0, they have now won 5 consecutive victories. Only 4 consecutive victories at Sporting Lisbon can threaten their top position.

But this season’s Benfica’s state before and after the coaching change was extremely poor. In the last round, he was tied by newly promoted Guimarães, and this round was tied by Braga. He won two in five games, but lost one. Two games.

Boavista was even more miserable. This round was tied by Coimbra. Five rounds of the league lost 2 games, tied 3 games, and didn't win one game.

Instead, Kahuda’s Guimarães is in better shape day by day. After defeating Navarre 4:1 in this round, the standings have risen to sixth place.

The match against the Portuguese national team was like a headshot. Rexos, who had just curled his tail, was hit in the dust again. They realized that they had defeated Benfica and Boavista, who were in poor condition by defending and fighting back. , Not to be proud of. In terms of strength, they are still a relegation team of the Portuguese Super League, and may not even be better than Guimarães. If they are not careful, they may fall back to the Portuguese League again. (.)
