The Green Superstar

Chapter 58: So hard to score!

At 8 o'clock on Sunday evening, the main stands on both sides of the Braga Municipal Stadium were full.

On the super-large screen hanging in the air on the side of the cliff, Braga’s wonderful goals in the league last season were played, and Latin American pop songs echoed in the stadium.

Small cities also have the benefits of small cities. This is a city with a population of less than 200,000. People can come in to cheer for Braga after having dinner early on Sunday. At least in this time period, there is no such city. A more lively and attractive event than the Braga game.

Tang Hong is warming up on the court in a red and white home color jersey of Braga. There are many faces that come and go throughout the summer. For local fans, he will not pay attention to every player. There are too many players just this one. The passing of the team, only those outstanding players will be known to the fans.

The fair-like souvenir stalls outside the stadium, whether it’s dolls or jerseys, scarves, flags, or commemorative T-shirts, are always made with the heroes of the club as the theme. Players who have not performed and contributed will naturally not have this treatment. It's low-key to say it nicely, but in fact it's obscurity.

This Braga jersey on Tang Hong is very weird, at least it is very different from ordinary football fans buying top giants jersey.

Generally, there are at most two advertisements for the top-selling giant jerseys on the market. The jersey manufacturer, Adi, Nike, Puma, Umbro, Kappa, etc. are familiar with the logos. The other is the advertisement on the shirt chest, from airlines to banks, from Gaming companies to old cars and so on are also commonplace.

But there are too many ads on Braga's jersey!

The team logo on the left side of the chest is normal, but there is a sponsor brand LOGO in the upper right corner. The jersey manufacturer LOGO on the short sleeve on the left is normal, and there is also an advertising logo on the short sleeve on the right!

More than that, there is a line of sponsor ads above the number and name on the back!

In the past, Tang Hong knew that the British championship shirt was very fancy. The reason was that there were too many sponsor advertisements on the shirt. He didn’t expect that the team he played for today would be the same. Regarding the aesthetics of the jerseys, I'm afraid the club will not mind advertising other blank spaces.

Their jerseys are mobile advertising programs under the scene of the game!

After a brief warm-up, he returned to the dressing room. Tang Hong sat in front of his closet and listened to Yaltim's pre-match training.

Today he entered the roster of the game, but only a substitute, as to whether he has a chance to play depends on the trend of the game.

Yaltim simply reiterated the tactical requirements of the pre-match preparation meeting yesterday, and at the same time boosted the morale of the team. Even the assistant coach Vieira also energetically inspired the players' excitement, as if they were about to fight a war!

Wearing this fancy jersey, Tang Hong followed his teammates and left the locker room. Most of his teammates would clap each other's hands when they lined up in the player channel to boost morale. Tang Hong is not familiar with everyone, so he didn't do this. In the scene work, if you insist on acting as if you have a close relationship with them, it is a little bit pretentious.

Come to the bench to sit down, put on a bench vest, this vest also has advertisements, modern football commercial penetration is simply pervasive and full of tricks.

Players from the two teams entered the field. Braga’s staff took a microphone on the sidelines to introduce today’s starting players. The atmosphere in the stadium stands has been very calm. It was not until the names of some players were broadcast on the radio that some fans would cheer. It is also possible to judge the popularity of the player among the fans by the magnitude of the momentum.

After the starters of the two teams entered the field, the stadium stands calm again.

Tang Hong has been to many stadiums in the world and felt the frenetic atmosphere in the stands, but because the matches he went to watch were the European Cup and the World Cup, it made sense that the atmosphere of every game was very bursting.

The atmosphere of the Portuguese stadium is not as passionate and unrestrained as in England. On the contrary, everyone is calm.

Even if there are many people who are "dressing up", wearing club mascot-style hats, wearing red and white clothing with obvious Braga colors, or holding slogans in their hands, they just sit quietly in their seats Wait for the game to start.

"Good evening, everyone, Braga's sky has been dimmed. The weather at night will make the audience and the players feel very comfortable, but will Braga's performance be as calm as the Mediterranean?

They have scored two draws in the two games of the new season. They have not scored or conceded in 180 minutes. It looks like a start that is not excessively worrying, but absolutely not happy.

We have to reiterate our views at the beginning of each season over the past few years.

If Braga wants to make a difference in the league, even if it is not a championship, but get runners-up to enter the Champions League next season, then they must be more powerful and aggressive on the court!

If they are still as stable as they have been in the past few years, the games that should have been lost have basically not been won, and the games that should have been won will be inexplicably less than a few games, then Braga’s best result is still won. One Europa League qualifying place.

Judging from their input in the summer, Braga’s ambitions are also very limited. No matter what, let’s take a look at what Braga will do in the first home game of the league. Today their opponent is Maritimo. Last season Braga double-killed them at home and away, so Braga naturally hopes to reap the first victory of the new season from them, which can also relieve the pressure on the shoulders of coach Yaltim to a certain extent!

Braga made 433 today.

Goalkeeper: Quim.

Defenders: Salino, Everton, Paul-Vinicius, Bayano.

Midfielder: Viana, Mahamat, Barbosa.

Forwards: Alan, Lima, Nuno Gomez.

Due to the Europa League qualifiers, Braga made some personnel rotations today.

Maritimo started 433.

Goalkeeper: Pesania.

Defenders: Brigel, Roberge, Robinson, Ruben.

Midfielder: Sosa, Helton, Miranda.

Forwards: Sammy, Papa Diawara, Diaz.

The starting lineup has been introduced, now let us enjoy the second round of the Portuguese Super League Braga VS Maritimo game at the municipal stadium! "

Tang Hong watched the game very intently. Maritimo is also obviously in the majority of foreign aid. There is no limit to the number of foreign aid in the Portuguese Super League. This makes the Portuguese Super League match more South American, especially Brazilian players as the main group.

Although Maritimo is a civilian team, there is no star of hope in the formation, but there are still a few players worthy of attention, such as Helton in the midfield, Diawara as the forward, Sammy and other players. It is a player in the candidate list of the three giants of the Portuguese Super League. If needed, the three giants of the Portuguese Super League will first choose them in the replacement of personnel. After all, they are good and cheap.

Both teams played 433, but the trend after the start of the game showed a stalemate.

The reason why Braga's offense is not good is that the whole striker is also reliable in Lima, no matter how other strikers cooperate with him, they cannot form a good team chemistry.

Braga fell sharply in the league last season. The most important reason is that the striker is not strong. The top ten scorers in the league, there is no player from Braga in the top 15!

The start of the season seems to continue this trend.

Improving the offense is the most important task before Yaltim.

Maritimo's midfielder has a double defensive midfielder configuration, and the offensive aspect mainly counterattacks, creating dangers many times.

Braga's tough battle was like constipation. Viana and Barbosa created an offensive continuation on the offensive end, but they couldn't form an effective side-center combination with the wing.

An obvious problem is that offensive players like to dribble a few steps after stopping the ball. This is true in itself, but if you always get into a dead end or get intercepted by your opponent, there is a problem.

In the first half of the game, the two teams drew a goalless draw. Braga seemed to have the initiative, but actually did not create much threat. On the contrary, Maritimo's several counterattacks almost broke Braga's defense!

The Braga fans in the stands are still very calm, neither angry nor disappointed, and they have no intention of cheering and stimulating the performance of the team. Came here to watch football is part of their lives, but it is obviously not like some football fanatic country. Think of football as faith.

Fortunately, Yaltim had shaved his head, otherwise his flat Mediterranean head would have been repeatedly touched by him in the first half, and he would definitely create a very high abstract mood!

Tang Hong got up and followed the team to the player's passage, but Vieira told Tang Hong to stay in the court to warm up after receiving Yaltim's instructions.

It seems likely that he will be replaced in the second half!
