The two rounds of the Portuguese Super League passed quickly, and Porto's momentum continued unabated, and after beating Rexos at home to a heavy defeat in the Champions League, they were already 15 points ahead of second-place places, and with nine rounds of the league remaining, there was no doubt that Porto would win the title a few rounds earlier.

With the league resting on their laurels, Porto turned their attention to the Champions League.

In the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals, Porto drew 2:2 away with Atletico Madrid, taking a solid step on the road to promotion, returning to home, as long as a 0:0 draw, Porto can eliminate Atletico Madrid and advance to the quarterfinals.

However, Porto don't dare to defend against a lot of talented players, and if they have a flash of inspiration, they can penetrate your bus, and it is difficult to ensure that their defenders and goalkeepers do not make mistakes.

In the last game, Porto conceded two goals, one was a flash of inspiration from Sergio Aguero and Forlan, and the other was a mistake by goalkeeper Helton.

In the first leg, Porto played on the first matchday, and in this round, Porto played on the second matchday.

Being able to rest an extra day and see how their Champions League opponents are forming, is very advantageous for Porto.

Because of the good away game, Porto returned to the home stadium was relatively easy, but after the first day of the game, Porto immediately became nervous.

The style of the second leg is obviously completely different from the first leg, except for the first leg where Rexos and Bayern scored 5 goals, the other three games combined to score 4, but in this round, Bayern slaughtered Rexos 7:1, Liverpool swept Real Madrid 4:0, Chelsea drew 2:2 away to Juventus, Villarreal beat Panathinachs 2:1 away, and scored 19 goals in four games combined.

Rexos was beaten 12:1 by Bayern over two legs, creating a horrific tragedy, although Ressos has extremely poor European experience, but the low level of the Portuguese Super League is also an important factor.

In addition, Chelsea drew 2-2 away at Juventus and Villarreal beat Panathinachs 2-1 away, these two games show that in the do-and-die battle for the knockout round of the Champions League, the impact of home advantage is not great, and it is fundamentally based on their own strength.

Obviously, after watching the first matchday, Atletico's confidence will recover a lot.

Immediately after training the next morning, Porto's coaching staff held a meeting with the players in the tactics room.

Ferreira said with a serious expression: "Everyone has seen what the second leg of the knockout round is like, the battle of life and death is like this, it is impossible to be as conservative as the first leg, the score of 2:2 away is not safe, we want to enter the quarterfinals, we must win, no matter how good the defense is, there will be no mistakes, only the lead is the safest." ”

Assistant coach Emmanuel said: "Atletico Madrid have a strong attack, when they come to the away side, they have no choice but to score, you can imagine how much pressure our backline will be under, if we want to withstand the impact of Forlan, Sergio Aguero, Maxi and Simao, in addition to the 100% attention of the defenders, the other players must also actively return to the defense to avoid letting the opponent face our defenders directly, in addition, we also have to give the opponent enough pressure in the attack, so that their defenders do not dare to press too forward." ”

Obviously, Porto's young players were frightened by the brutal score of the second leg, it was terrifying, they didn't dare to imagine that the gap between Rexos, who ranked fifth in the Portuguese Super League, and the big five league giants would be so big, and Bayern's current strength is not the top giants.

When Lexus lost to Bayern 0:5 in the first leg, Gao Xiaodong was still thinking about what the score would be if he was in Lexos, but now he doesn't have to think about it, if he is in Lexos, it will be a fiasco, this strength gap is not something he can make up, but the score may look better.

After the meeting, all the players were not allowed to go home at noon, and all the players ate in the restaurant of the Olive Branch training base, and then rested in the players' apartments to wait for the second leg of the do-or-die clash with Atletico Madrid in the evening.

After lunch, Ferreira attended a pre-match press conference with Atletico Madrid manager Resino.

Speaking at his press conference, Atletico Madrid head coach Recino seemed to find confidence and inspiration from the opening day, stating that while Porto have some talented players in their squad, his feeling is that "the depth of available talent" will help his side qualify.

Recino then explained, "Porto are very strong, there are a few players who are fast and very strong, but we have better talent, Aguero is not only fast, but also more technical, more imaginative, he is the second Messi, I think he can lead Atletico to the next round, in addition to Pongele, Forlan, Maxi, Simão all have the ability to change the outcome of the game." ”

Recino even deluded himself by saying that "a draw in the first leg is not a bad result, they have already taken a draw from here, but we can win in Portugal." ”

The calm and low-key Ferreira couldn't help but sarcastically say: "A draw at home is a good result for Atletico, it will make them more motivated to play away." Only one team will make it to the quarter-finals, and hopefully Atletico will walk out of the Dragons Stadium with their heads held high like we did. ”

When Ferreira attended the press conference, Falcao broke into Gao Xiaodong's break room.

"Captain Gao, excuse me. ”

"You're welcome, Tiger, come and sit down. Gao Xiaodong was very happy with the title of Falcao, and Captain Gao was obviously much better than Guarin calling him the vice president of the high team.

Falcao said, "No, I just want to ask you a few words. ”

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "You stand and ask, how do I answer, I feel similar to a prisoner." ”

Falcao had no choice but to sit down and said, "Captain Gao, I want to ask, do you have an opinion on me?"

Gao Xiaodong said in surprise: "Tiger, where did you start with this?"

Falcao: "But in the last game against Atletico you gave me six passes and Hulk 20. ”

I rub, I remember it so clearly, Gao Xiaodong smiled: "Tiger, what do I have any opinion on you, I have been cooperating with Hulk for a long time, I have a tacit understanding, and I am not familiar with you." ”

Falcao shook his head firmly: "No, I remember there was a ball, I was in a good position, no one was defending, I raised my hand to ask for the ball, but you didn't pass it to me. ”

Nima, I remember that Gao Xiaodong was going crazy by Falcao, "Maybe I didn't see it, after all, the competition is so fierce." ”

Falcao said, "No, you saw it, and you made eye contact with me. ”

Specially, what kind of autumn wave will I send to you as a big man, even if his eyes sweep over you, he may not see you, but he can't say this, isn't there no one in his eyes, Gao Xiaodong had no choice but to say: "You have no one to defend, and someone on my side is always watching, and it may not be able to pass over." ”

I don't know if I was persuaded by Gao Xiaodong's approachable attitude, or agreed with Gao Xiaodong's explanation, Falcao said: "Thank you, captain, you are the offensive core of the team, I hope you treat every striker fairly, I assure you that my goal efficiency must be higher than Hulk's, and it won't disturb your rest." ”

Falcao said good afternoon to Gao Xiaodong and went out.

Looking at Falcao's back, Gao Xiaodong smiled, it turned out that this guy who was as brave as a tiger on the field and as quiet as a sheep off the field was jealous.

"I'll give you a few passes and see how many you can score. ”
