As the saying goes, luck can't be stopped, good luck and bad luck are the same, after being drawn by the Portuguese national in the last round, Lexos' opponent Coimbra in the sixth round did the same, and also played a defensive counterattack at home. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

If Lexus also defends and counterattacks, this game will be difficult to say, but Lexus is still ranked third, they still want to win, so they attack away, and then are repeatedly counterattacked by the University of Coimbra team, first captain Eves scored an own goal, and then Lexus was impetuous, attacked aggressively, and was counterattacked again, and finally Rhexos lost 0:3 away.

The highlight of this round is the Porto derby between Porto and Boavista, and the Lisbon derby between Sporting Lisbon and Benfica.

In the end, Porto defeated Boavista 2-0, Sporting Lisbon was forced to draw by Benfica, and Porto, who had won six consecutive games, was five points ahead of second-place Sporting Lisbon, and Boavista fell into the relegation zone again.

The two key battles have overshadowed a lot of things, such as the big defeat of Lexos, such as Guimaraes' winning streak, which has won three in a row after beating Braga in this round, and is only one point behind Lexus.

Eliminated by Leiria in the first edition of the Portuguese League Cup, held to a draw by the Portuguese national team, and then defeated by Coimbra, Rexus, who has always been regarded as a big dark horse by the media and fans, has gone a clear downhill slope.

Journalists no longer refer to Lexos as dark horses, and their name in the newspapers has once again changed to the promoted polo team in North Porto

Another promoted horse, Guimaraes, has become a new dark horse in the eyes of the media and fans after three consecutive wins, and the original praise for Rexos has been put on the head of the Guimaraes team.

Winning or losing, competitive competitions have always been so cruel.

After the match against Coimbra, Oliveira called all the players and coaches together for a discussion to analyse what was going on in the two games and why the team suffered successive setbacks.

Captain Eves first apologized to his teammates, saying that it was his own goal that put the team on passivity.

Oliveira said: "Don't apologize, what's the use of apologizing, you don't want to score an own goal, just say what you think of our current situation." ”

Eves thought for a moment and said: "I think it's still our attack is not strong, oh, I'm not saying that our defense is strong, but when the opponent plays a defensive counterattack, we can't break the goal, I think it's a big problem." ”

Oliveira said: "Attacking is a problem, our attack is still too rough and not delicate enough to tear apart the opposition's dense defence. ”

Brandi said: "I don't think it's enough to rely on the forward's passing and coordination, people are staring at one by one, and there are also those who assist in defense, how to cooperate, I think set-pieces are very important, if we can break the opponent's goal through set-pieces, we won't play so passive." ”

Midfield core Lopes said: "I think we have to buy people during the winter break, and it is difficult for the attack to improve just by relying on us now. ”

Assistant coach Kawu said: "There are still 10 rounds left before the winter break, and it is too early to say that it is too early to buy people." ”

Gao Xiaodong said leisurely: "I think our positioning is still a bit problematic. ”

Oliveira said, "How do you say that?"

Gao Xiaodong said: "6 games, we won three, drew two, lost one, ranked fourth, against a promoted horse, such a result is not bad, we away and Coimbra game, the opponent took the initiative to show weakness, defense counterattack, we attacked, the result was counterattacked, lost, I was thinking, we can't ask for a point in difficulty? If we also fight back, it is estimated that Coimbra will be unable to hold our breath, after all, they are the home team, they are the old Portuguese Super League, we are new recruits, and the same is true of the Portuguese national team, everyone thinks about whether I am right or not. ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard it, and felt that what Gao Xiaodong said was reasonable, indeed, if they also played defensive counterattacks at that time, although it was a little obscene, it was estimated that they couldn't lose, after all, it was the most familiar style of play for Lexos, with three backs and defensive counterattacks, they beat Benfica.

Although there is generally no place for newcomers like Anguluo to speak in such meetings, it was Gao Xiaodong who just spoke, and Anguluo still said: "I think what Gao Xiaodong said makes sense, because the previous results are better, and we still put ourselves in a higher position in our hearts, if we play defensive counterattacks no matter who we are against, I think our results should be better." ”

"I think we didn't buy a lot of people in the summer transfer, our advantage is that we can fight together tacitly, and we have to play to that, not with those old teams in the Portuguese Super League. ”

……

Then everyone expressed their opinions more or less, and finally Oliveira concluded his speech,

"I think their speeches are very good, they have thought about it carefully, and they have also said our shortcomings and advantages, I think Gao Xiaodong said that it makes sense, we are the right positioning for ourselves at the beginning of the season, we are the weakest, we have to fight every opponent, but now, although we are also positioning relegation, deep down we don't think so, we feel that we are now fourth, stronger than a relegation team like Coimbra, so when they defend and counterattack, we have to attack, in fact, we are wrong, no matter who we face, as long as it is a Portuguese Super League team, they are stronger than us, we should defend and counterattack, not attack。 ”

Oliveira discussed it with assistant coach Kau. Let the players digest their words for a while, and then continued: "I think from the next round, we have to change a concept, against any team in the Portuguese Super League, our goal is not to lose, to be happy to get a point, to get three points is even happier, we play defensive counterattacks against every team, as for whether they play defensive counterattacks or not, it doesn't matter. ”

Oliveira looked at Gao Xiaodong who wanted to speak and said, "Gao Xiaodong, say whatever you want." ”

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "If we play a defensive counterattack, and the opponent also plays a defensive counterattack, we will ignore them, just don't attack, see who can hold it, if they can hold it, we will get 1 point, they want to be obscene, we will be obscene, see who is more obscene, anyway, we are promoted horses." ”

When he said this, the fat man's heart was dripping blood, this is not only the league points, but also his system points, if he wins the games with the national team and the Coimbra team, his system points will be 20 points, 3 points less, my God.

Oliveira smiled, he can't say that he is looking for a coach in this way, but he agrees, as a person who has been promoted to the Portuguese Super League five times and beaten down several times, he knows the cruelty of the Portuguese Super League.

"What Xiao Dong said is also reasonable, we should also be flexible at that time, but according to the characteristics of our personnel and playing style, in the next season, we must insist on defending and counterattacking, so that we should have no problem with relegation. ”

If Oliveira had said something like this before the defeat to Coimbra, the players might not have agreed with it even in person, and they might not have done what the coach said on the pitch, but now, they feel that maybe the defensive counterattack is really their only option. (To be continued.) )
