Generally, the coach will reiterate the tactical deployment and the situation to pay attention to at this time, but Oliveira has been preparing for so long before the game, what should have been said has been said countless times, and what should have been practiced has been practiced to the point of being extremely proficient, except for a few new players, everyone else Oliveira is very familiar with, he didn't say anything, but before he came on the field, Oliveira said to the players: " You have played in the Portuguese Super League, there are those who have not played in the Portuguese Super League, there are Portuguese, there are Brazilians, there are Chinese, you have always played for Rexos, there are also loanees, and there are transfers, but no matter where you come from, now, you are all Rekossos, you and Rekosos live and die together, honor and disgrace are connected, we can give up this game, many people have chosen to give up on the three giants, but I don't want to give up, our first Portuguese Super League trip, I hope to be a little more exciting, I hope to have a good memory in the future, if you think the same way, then go out and fight, show your courage and confidence, Benfica is not invincible either, here is Rekossos. β
The players were impressed, and their expressions became excited, and the captain Eavis first shouted "This is Rekosos!", and then Zener followed suit, "This is Rekosos!" and everyone shouted slogans and walked out of the locker room.
β¦β¦
The fans in the stands had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw the players come out of the locker room, instant applause and shouts swept across the stadium like a tornado.
On the commentary seat, Winkla said excitedly: " The players came out of the dressing room and the game is about to start, this is Recosos' first Portuguese Premier League game in 19 years, hopefully today they can do a miracle and take points from Benfica, now we take a look at the starting line-ups of both sides: Benfica is in a formation of 4312, goalkeeper: 12-Quem, defenders: 2-Luis Felipe, 4-Luisan, 23-David Luiz, 5-Leao, midfielders: 14-Maxi Pereira, midfielders 6-Petit, 10-Rui Costa, 26-Cristian Rodriguez, forwards 21-Nuno Gomezγ No. 7 Cardoso
It's a formidable line-up, with Paraguay international Cardoso on the front line standing at 1.94 meters tall and excellent with skills and headers at his feet, No. 21 Gomez is one of the souls of Benfica, he moves erratically, shoots superbly, and although he is 31 years old this year, he still scores goals. Behind them is the great midfield maestro Rui Costa, and the only downside of the trio is that Cardoso has just arrived at Benfica this season and may not be able to work well with his team-mates.
Behind Costa are Portugal internationals Petit and Pereira, and Uruguay international Rodriguez. The first two are in charge, Rodriguez is in attack, such a midfield lineup, even if it is placed in the Champions League, there are few teams that block their attack.
Rekossos' starting lineup is No. 23 goalkeeper Beto, four defenders: No. 4 Newman, No. 3 Evans, No. 5 Bruno, No. 2 TΓ©a, five midfielders: No. 13 Gao Xiaodong, No. 14 Zener, No. 10 Lopes, No. 30 Dior, No. 8 Lantillo, and single striker No. 11 Brandi.
Compared with Benfica, which is starry and full of internationals, Lexos is much shabby, and no one in the entire Lexos team is an international.
However, football is a team sport, and the absence of stars does not mean that the level is low, nor does it mean that you will not play well.
Judging from Coach Oliveira's lineup today, Rexos is ready to play a defensive counterattack.
After being closed for a week, the tactical formation that came up with was still the defensive counterattack of 451 that everyone could think of with their heels, and Oliveira's pre-match approach was really debatable......"
On the field, the Lexos players are shaking hands with the Benfica players, obviously, even for the Lexos players, Rui Costa and Gomez are enough to become his idols, and many Lexos players still say words of admiration when shaking hands with Rui Costa.
Rui Costa was very elegant, nodding and giving a gentle smile to every opponent who shook his hand and spoke.
When it was Gao Xiaodong's turn to shake hands with Rui Costa, Gao Xiaodong shook the master's hand and said: "Hello master, you were my idol when you were in Florence, I am so happy to see you today, unfortunately, I defend you today, if there is anything offended, I apologize to you first." β
Gao Xiaodong stammered out this passage that he had learned from Xiao Le for a long time.
Gao Xiaodong understood what Lu Costa, but he said so much, and apologized, which made Rui Costa a little inexplicable, and said in his heart, what is wrong with this Chinese child, why are you saying this.
Zina, who was behind Gao Xiaodong, saw Gao Xiaodong holding Rui Costa's hand, and was still babbling, and couldn't help but say, "Hurry up, the game is about to start." β
Commentator Winkla said: "What's wrong with Gao, this is just going through the motions, and chasing stars shouldn't be at this time." β
The Benfica fans on the pitch laughed.
"God! I'm here to chase the stars!"
"What did he say? Did you want to swap jerseys with Costa?"
"It's not begging for mercy. β
"It's also a loss to Costa for his good temper, and if I replaced me, I would have been scolded a long time ago. β
β¦β¦
Lexus fans are a little ashamed of Gao Xiaodong, this is too cheap, this is before the game, you can chase stars as much as you want after the game, it is too demoralizing before the game.
Xiao Le sighed again and again, and said: "You said that the fat man is a little famous whether he is in China or Portugal, how can he do such a cheap thing." β
Chen Qiang said: "Maybe I'm too excited." β
"The fat man definitely didn't press well. The monkey didn't know what Gao Xiaodong was talking about, but he knew that this fat man would never be a star chaser, and he might be thinking about some bad idea.
There is not much novelty in Lexus's lineup, the only surprise is the start of the African Nigerian boy Dio, it is generally believed that it should be Paul or Nice to start, conservative Paul, radical Nice, but Oliveira chose the young and capable Dior.
At seven o'clock in the evening, with the referee Ploka blowing the whistle, the match between promoted Marexos and Portuguese Super League giants Benfica kicked off.
First off was the away team Benfica.
Striker Cardoso and old handsome Gomez poured the ball down, passed it to Rui Costa in the back, and then quickly cut into the half of the field for Lexos.
Benfica is a possession-based technical flow of play, typical of European Latin, Rui Costa did not rush forward after receiving the ball, he gracefully pulled the ball with a stop, turned half of his body very lightly, and then passed to Pereira on his side, and then turned backwards to meet his teammates.
At this time, everyone's eyes were on the Benfica players who controlled the ball, and they didn't notice that Gao Xiaodong actually rushed through the half and came to Benfica's half.
When Gao Xiaodong went over to force Rui Costa, the fans saw it and were very surprised.
"Fat man, is this a striker again?"
"He's faster than Brandy. β
"Don't you hit the back?"
"Could it be that this is a fake 451, when it is actually 442?"
β¦β¦
On-site commentator Wenkra also said: "In fact, Gao Xiaodong can only defend in the backfield, and often makes a cameo appearance as a striker, and it is good to go up and impact." β
Just when everyone was puzzled, the situation had a new change, after Rui Costa passed the ball, Gao Xiaodong neither continued to force the receiver, nor did he return to defense, but followed Rui Costa's side, where Rui Costa went, Gao Xiaodong followed, never abandoned.
At this time, everyone understood that Gao Xiaodong was marking people today.
"Ahh
"I've been tinkering for a week, just to cover up this man-marking tactic!"
"This fat man, he can play in any position, jack-of-all-trades!"
"Can the fat man keep an eye on the master?"
"God, a wild boar is keeping an eye on an elegant poet, I don't know what will happen next?"
"I guess Gao Xiaodong will get a red card!"
"Let's wait and see the show!"
β¦β¦
Originally, everyone felt that the starters and tactics of the two sides were nothing new, but they didn't expect Gao Xiaodong to actually hit the marker, and it was Rui Costa, and suddenly all the fans were excited, looking forward to how Rui Costa got rid of Lexos's tactical deployment against him.
