Braga's failure to win the first leg of the Europa League at home was not a surprise, but it was just a bit of a disappointment in the hearts of the Braga crowd.

After the game, they sat in the dressing room and hung their heads, and the overall gap between the two sides in the game was still obvious.

To say that the individual gap in the players is certainly not particularly obvious, only a few positions may be relatively large.

It is also an indisputable fact that Valencia's overall technical and tactical strength is indeed superior.

If it weren't for Bielsa's insistence on attacking wildly and giving Braga the opportunity to defend and counterattack, it may not be easy for Braga to turn the tables at home.

Allowing Valencia to walk away with a dominant result made it a little difficult for Braga to challenge their opponents in the second leg.

Custodio stood up and said to the crowd: "Don't be too discouraged, we still have a chance, try to play better away from home, I'm sure we can do it!" ”

"Of course we can do it!"

Yaltim, who was interviewed after the game, happened to be back in the dressing room and actively encouraged everyone to cheer up.

Morale gradually recovered, and everyone cleaned up and went home to recuperate.

When he was eating breakfast the next morning, Tang Hong was holding milk and his hand was constantly tapping on the keyboard on his laptop, Sun Rou came behind him curiously and asked, "Do you watch the video so early?" ”

Tang Hong said casually: "Well, study the opponent." ”

Tang Hong is watching Valencia's performance in the past few games, especially the defensive adjustment and the individual defensive habits of the defenders.

Chen Manhong shook his head slightly on the side, this Tang Hong has become a persistent madman as long as he has anything to do with football.

But she also absolutely admires Tang Hong's dedication to football, and she even imagined that Tang Hong should be able to succeed if he put this passion and focus into other careers.

A man who can focus on a cause like him should not achieve nothing.

Tang Hong was not upset by yesterday's game, in fact, Braga did not have much preparation time before playing Valencia, and just had a league title final with Porto, and everyone had breathing space after winning.

But the psychological relaxation is also tacitly tacitly acquitted.

Because they were in a good second half of the season, as if no team was their opponent!

Last night at home, they were a little stunned by Valencia, whether it was the team's long-term two-goal deficit or Tang Hong's personal quagmire in the attack, they were a little caught off guard.

Thankfully, the overall form in the second half was not bad, and it was a bit of a fluke to get a draw in the end.

You know, both of Braga's goals came from the stoppage.

It's okay to recognize the reality now, it's okay to make amends, and there's nothing wrong with preparing better for the second leg.

At the weekend, Braga challenged Ferreira, who has declared relegation, and Braga theoretically needs four points to lock up the league title, but considering that they will challenge Valencia in the middle of next week, whether the Europa League can reach the final depends on the result of the game five days later, Yaltium decided to take the risk of rotating the whole team, many of the main players did not even enter the squad, but Tang Hong went with the team.

After all, Tang Hong is hitting the single-season goal record of the Portuguese Super League, and sending him on the field is also to satisfy his personal willingness to fight, but it will not give him too much time.

Coming to the away game, Tang Hong sat on the bench, Barbosa stayed in Braga, and Amorim also traveled with the team as a substitute.

Tang Hong and Amorim chatted casually, and their attention to the game was very limited.

Ferreira saw that Braga sent the whole team as a substitute, and they didn't have the pressure to grab points anyway, so they played extremely unrestrained and aggressive at home!

This put the Braga defence under great pressure.

What was particularly unexpected was that at the 20th minute of the game, Paul Vinicius was sent off for a foul on the opponent's lone player from behind!

Braga played one less away game.

Seeing this, Amorim whispered to Tang Hong: "I guess the coach's mentality is going to explode!" ”

Tang Hong almost laughed, shook his head and said: "No, the score is not behind, and I am afraid that it will blow up when the score is behind." ”

Yaltium is a lot nervous, he doesn't expect the substitutes to win, at least 1 point is good, so Braga only needs 1 win in the last 3 rounds to lock the league title!

But now that he has been sent off, and looking at Ferreira's menacing state today, it is really a question whether Braga can return it with his whole body!

Yaltium had to give the team a gesture, 11 to 11 didn't dare to wave, now honestly shrink back and play defensive counterattack.

However, there was no substitution, after all, even if Ferreira slashed at him with a large knife, his lethality was very limited.

Pacos Ferreira did play hard today, bombarding Portuguese league leaders Braga after 20 minutes.

The planes and cannons are roaring, and the football just doesn't fly to the door!

The home fans cheered and cheered in high spirits.

Tang Hong looked at the stands with an indescribably strange expression.

The plane is cool for a while, and the plane is cool all the time?

If other teams saw that the players were always jerking off, I am afraid that they would have scolded their mothers a long time ago!

I don't understand.

He really didn't know that Ferreira, a team in the middle and lower reaches of the league, generally had less than 10 shots in a game, and he could be suppressed to about 5 times when he encountered a strong team, let alone dominate the field and shoot all the time.

Can the home fans be upset to watch?

It is not a miracle that Braga was bombarded by his opponent in the first half and did not concede a goal with 14 shots, because Ferreira only had 3 shots on target!

At halftime, Artim asked Tang Hong to stay on the court to warm up, and he began to prepare on the court as usual.

Before the start of the second half, Braga made a substitution, Tang Hong replaced Ukara, who made a rare start, and formed a trident with Nuno Gomez and Alan, Braga played one less and played a 423 formation.

The backcourt is stubbornly defended, and the frontcourt offense depends on the creation of the front.

Ferreira may have been too excited in the first half, leading to the second half coming on and continuing to attack Braga!

After Ferreira had three shots in quick succession blocked by Braga's defenders, Braga had a great chance to counter-attack.

Alan crossed the ball across the middle after a quick advance down the right flank, and Nuno Gomez adjusted slightly to spot the gap on the left side of the box and shoehorn the ball through.

Tang Hong is obviously a little bit of a dodge from the opponent's defenders after coming off the bench today, offense and defense itself is a cat-and-mouse game, Tang Hong must not only reduce consumption, but also avoid injury, and only this kind of counterattack in his own free time when the speed of the defender's kick can avoid his opponent confrontation or give the opponent the opportunity to foul.

Tang Hong, who cut into the penalty area in the anti-offside position to form a single knife, completed a rubbing shot with the instep of his right foot and hoisted the ball into the upper right corner of the goal!

It looked like it was an easy goal.

Ferreira fans are full of bitterness at this time, and their indiscriminate bombardment, and the fast 20 shots on goal are not as effective as Tang Hong's clever shot in Braga's counterattack this time.

Tang Hong's goal reassured Artim, and the players on the field of Braga also eased the sense of urgency of being suppressed and attacked.

The goal brought Tang Hong's Portuguese Premier League goals to 43 in a single season, surpassing the record of 42 league goals set by Eusebio and Jardel, and just three goals short of Yasard's record of 46 goals.

Ferreira could only bite the bullet and continue to attack.

When the score is behind, Ferreira is really a bit crazy, the offensive and defensive efficiency has improved, and the defensive aggression has also soared!

In the 68th minute of the game, Tang Hong returned the favor to Nuno Gomez in the counterattack, and Nuno Gomez outflanked the ball in front of the goal!

Braga, who have played one man less, lead Ferreira by two goals on the road.

Although Braga took the initiative to reduce the tempo after leading by two goals, it could not withstand Ferreira's tight defensive counter-robbery pressure throughout the game, and in the 74th minute of the game, Ferreira launched a fast attack after a successful counter-robbery in the front court to create a melee in front of the Braga goal to pull back a goal!

Ferreira, who saw the hope of an equalizer, was even more wolf-like, and the foul action was larger.

As a result, a man was sent off in the 79th minute of the game!

Well, now everyone is the same.

Ferreira ignored the referee's warning and continued to foul rudely, only to have a second player sent off three minutes later!

From 11 to 10 to 9 to 10!

Ferreira was a lot more sober in an instant, but there was not much time left for the game.

Tang Hong obviously didn't have any intention of scoring goals, he needed to prepare for the second leg against Valencia more than breaking the record, and the situation in the second half of the game really made him jealous.

Ferreira's brutal pressing and fouls can easily cause injuries to players.

When the whistle blew at the end of the game, Yaltim smiled and applauded in satisfaction.

Valencia aside, winning this game means Braga only need one more point to win the league title!

And if Porto lose points in this round, then Braga will be crowned three rounds earlier!

The competition was lackluster, but the joy of the result made them even more motivated!

Porto beat Bellamar 3-0 at home in the same round, and Braga will have to wait until the next round at the fastest to win the title.

Valencia is the third largest city in Spain, the first two cities are basically familiar to fans, Madrid and Barcelona, although Spain's economy is also in a downturn, but now Chen Manhong and Sun Rou have the opportunity to go to major European cities to visit is also a good thing.

The two traveled together again, and traveled happily in the name of going to the away stadium to cheer for Tang Hong, Tang Hong has always supported Sun Rou to go out for a walk, but found that she was not a person who was good at making friends.

Chen Manhong went to France to meet a few Chinese students, and Sun Rou's intersection circle was always limited to one roof.

But at least she still has someone to accompany her now, and she won't be bored and lonely.

After a three-day rest in Braga, Tang Hong arrived at the hotel in Valencia with the team a day early to recharge for the second leg of the Europa League semi-finals.

The cap on Braga's Season achievements will also depend on the outcome of the Europa League battle!
