Chapter 289: Upgrade critical

In the second round of the UEFA Champions League, although Porto lost 2:4 away to Arsenal, Fenerbahçe and Dynamo Kyiv also played a tie, so Porto was lucky to be ranked first in the standings with 3 points. Two people.

Before playing Arsenal, Porto was hailed by the media as the only team in Group G that could challenge Arsenal. After losing 2:4, Porto immediately became a second-rate European power and a general elected by the lame.

The Portuguese media is also a little dissatisfied with Porto's 11 visits to the British. Even the pro-Porto "Record" ridiculed that it is only in the UEFA Cup that Porto may break the record of being invincible in the United Kingdom.

Gao Xiaodong was widely optimistic before the game and believed that the 30 million euro offer was absolutely worth it. After this game, some media still believed that Gao Xiaodong had both offensive and defensive capabilities. A long shot opened the prelude to Porto’s counterattack. It was in Porto’s game. The bright spot, the transfer fee of 30 million is not outrageous. Another part of the media believes that Gao Xiaodong has rough skills, is too short, has no breakthrough ability, and can only shoot a long shot. 20 million is too much. It is obviously a black shop Porto hype. from.

The news of a strong team defeating a weak team will never be hyped. After the Belarusian team Borisov Batt drew with Juventus 2:2, the European media and fans immediately put the Arsenal and Porto game behind and pay attention. The force was transferred to Juventus. After Lexos defeated Basel, the Portuguese media also paid attention to the **** Mare Lexos last season. Apart from the Porto fans, no one paid attention to Porto.

In days without media attention, Porto's play style is slowly changing. In the fifth round of the league, Ferreira tried a 442 formation. Forward Lisandro and Hulk partnered. Midfielders Gao Xiaodong, Lucho and Meireles dominated, Guarin, Fernando and Rodriguez. Take turns to play; in the sixth round of the league, Ferreira changed the formation to 4312. Gao Xiaodong, Meireles and Fernando teamed up with three midfielders. Risandro and Rodríguez played forwards, and they experimented in turn. Hulk, Farias and Lisandro partner, Gao Xiaodong and Lucho interchange.

Porto won both rounds of the league. However, due to the weak strength of the Portuguese Super League opponents, the victory could not really test the pros and cons of the formation and personnel mix, until the arrival of the third Champions League opponent Dynamo Kyiv.

In the first two rounds, Dynamo Kyiv tied both games and ranked third with two points. Although there is an ice and snowy home court factor, if its own strength is not good, no matter how good the field is, it will not help the team to draw against Arsenal as strong. team.

In the face of the Ukrainian class tyrant who was attacked by thousands of miles, Porto did not dare to be careless and was not qualified to be careless. Head coach Ferreira lined up a 4312 formation with three midfielders.

The goalkeeper is Helton, who can't be beaten, four defenders Fusile, Rolando, Alves and Sapruna, midfielders Gao Xiaodong, Guarin and Meireles, midfielders Lucio, forwards Hulk and Risander Luo.

Dynamo Kyiv has a 4-4-2 formation: goalkeeper 31-Bogush; four-backs 3-Betao, 15-Diakart, 32-Assadiani, 30-Cadoli; fourth in Field 11-Eremenko, 5-Vukojevic, 4-Giojani, 8-Aliyev double forward 25-Milevsky, 10-Bangura

Dynamo Kyiv’s is exactly the same as the home draw with Arsenal, and Porto’s lineup has only changed a midfielder compared to Arsenal’s. Guarin, who has a stronger attack, replaced the one with stronger defensive ability. Fernando.

After the start of the game, Gao Xiaodong, who plays the role of the midfielder, was more excited than the other teammates, running tirelessly, as if he were a perpetual motion machine.

Fans and teammates thought that Gao Xiaodong was stimulated by the last game and was eager to win this game. In fact, Gao Xiaodong was so excited because he could be promoted to a professional player by winning this game.

Before playing Arsenal, Gao Xiaodong accumulated 42 points. If he wins against Arsenal, he can get another 4 points. Gao Xiaodong can upgrade after winning the last round of the league, but his defeat at the Emirates delayed Gao Xiaodong's upgrade. Time, until this round against Dynamo Kyiv, Gao Xiaodong won two games in a row, accumulated 46 system points, Gao Xiaodong reached the critical point of upgrading, as long as this game defeats Dynamo Kyiv, Gao Xiaodong will be upgraded to a professional Level players.

Playing against Arsenal, Porto has no technical advantage, and looks like a rough guy. He scored two away goals through physical confrontation.

But playing against Dynamo Kyiv, Porto's technical advantage is obvious. After the opening, the ball is basically controlled at Porto's feet, and the pass and cut are very smooth, while Dynamo Kyiv can only chase the ball.

However, advantage is not equal to victory, and victory is not equal to victory. Although Dynamo Kyiv was passive, the defense was very stable. After consecutive draws between Arsenal and Fenerbahçe, Dynamo Kyiv accumulated countermeasures. The experience of the two teams, flow and blood flow, is to defend the 30-meter area and fight hard in the half.

Moreover, Dynamo Kyiv has done a very detailed study of Porto, and has targeted defenses against Gao Xiaodong, Risandro, Lucho, Hulk, etc., so that Porto’s offense can only be rotated outside the penalty area. No threatening shot.

Dynamo Kyiv adopted such a conservative tactic, which made Porto’s third midfielder useless. Gao Xiaodong was unable to run to the forward position. It was too far from his defensive position. Gao Xiaodong naturally ran to the forward position. , Here, advance can attack, retreat can defend, is Gao Xiaodong's favorite.

But it was the captain Lu Qiao who played this position, which made Lu Qiao very dissatisfied, and felt that Gao Xiaodong was here to grab his position.

In the 20th minute of the match, the Porto field Mereles turned around and passed through Gao Xiaodong. When Gao Xiaodong received the ball, Kyiv Dynamo midfielder Aliyev rushed to force him, and Gao Xiaodong was posted by Aliyev. He bumped his shoulders and pushed his hands secretly, knocking Aliyev to the ground. Although the referee saw it, he ignored him.

The opponent defending player hasn't arrived yet, Gao Xiaodong finally got the space to kick. He took a step forward, ignoring the opponent's player flying over and shoveling his thigh is a burst shot.

This is Gao Xiaodong's third shot after the opening. The first kick hit the plane, and the second kick was interfered by the opponent. The ball missed. This time, Gao Xiaodong found the feeling and the ball whizzed straight to the upper right corner of the goal. .

After the ball flew out, Gao Xiaodong was also shoveled to the ground by his opponent.

Dynamo Kyiv’s goalkeeper Bogush had already prepared. He dived and stabbed the ball with his fingertips.

Bogusz is 25 years old this year, with a height of 1.92 meters. He is the golden age with the fastest response. In the first two games, Arsenal and Fenerbahçe have shot a lot, and Bogush’s state has also developed. In addition, he was very vigilant about Gao Xiaodong's long shots, and such a tricky and powerful shot was actually thrown out by him.

"what!"

"I rushed out!"

"God save!"

"The goalkeeper opened up today!"

...

The Porto fans in the stands sighed, while the thousands of Dynamo Kyiv fans who came from afar secretly wiped a cold sweat. It’s better to play football and say that one chapter may be repeated, just subscribe to one chapter.
