At 8 p.m. on Sunday, the main stands on both sides of the Municipal Stadium in Braga were full.

On the side of the cliff, a huge screen hung in the air showing Braga's best goal in the league last season, and Latin American pop songs echoed in the stadium.

Small cities also have the benefits of being small cities, with a population of less than 200,000 people, people can come in early on Sunday after dinner to cheer on Braga, at least during this time of year, there is no more lively and attractive event in the city than the Braga race.

Tang Hong warmed up on the pitch in Braga's red and white home jersey, and many faces came and went in the summer, and for the local fans will not pay attention to every player, there are too many players who are just passers-by of this team, and only those who perform well will be known by the fans.

The souvenir stalls outside the stadium are like bazaars, whether they are dolls or jerseys, scarves, flags, commemorative T-shirts, which always have the club's heroes as the theme of production.

The Braga jersey on Tang Hong is very strange, at least it is very different from ordinary fans buying the jerseys of top giants.

Generally, there are two advertisements for the best-selling giant jerseys on the market, jersey manufacturers, Adi, Nike, Puma, Umbro, Kappa, etc.

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 also a sponsor brand logo in the upper right corner, the jersey manufacturer logo on the left short sleeve is normal, and there is also an advertising logo on the right short sleeve!

Not only that, but there is also a line of sponsor advertising above the number and name on the back!

In the past, Tang Hong knew that the jersey of the Championship was very fancy, the reason was that there were too many sponsor advertisements on the jersey, but he didn't expect the team he played for today to be the same, no way, the finance is not comparable to the teams of the five major leagues, if it is not for the aesthetics of the jersey, I am afraid that the club will not mind advertising other blank places.

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

After a brief warm-up, he returned to the locker room, where Tang Hong sat in front of his wardrobe and listened to Yaltium's pre-match speech.

He was in the squad for the game today, but he was only a substitute, and whether he has a chance to play or not depends on the direction of the game.

Yaltium simply reiterated the tactical requirements of yesterday's pre-match preparation meeting, and at the same time boosted the morale of the team, and even the assistant coach Vieira was full of energy to inspire the players, as if they were about to go to war!

Wearing this somewhat fancy jersey, Tang Hong followed his teammates out of the locker room, most of the teammates would clap each other when they lined up in the player tunnel to boost morale, Tang Hong was not familiar with everyone, so he didn't do these scenes, and he insisted on acting as if he had a close relationship with them.

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

The atmosphere in the stands of the stadium was calm until the names of some of the players came out on the radio, and the popularity of the players among the fans could be judged by the size of the momentum.

When the starters of both teams entered the stadium, there was calm in the stands again.

Tang Hong has been to many stadiums in the world and felt the frenzied atmosphere in the stands, but because the games he went to watch were the European Cup and the World Cup, it was reasonable that the atmosphere of every game was very explosive.

The atmosphere in Portugal is not as passionate and unbridled as in England, on the contrary, everyone is calm.

Even though many of them were "dressed up", wearing hats in the style of the club's mascots, wearing red and white costumes with distinctly Braga, or holding slogans in their hands, they just sat quietly in their seats and waited for the game to begin.

"Good evening, everyone, Braga has darkened and the weather will be comfortable for both the spectators and the players at the beginning of the night, but will Braga be as calm as the Mediterranean?

They have drawn two of their two games in the new season, and have not scored or conceded a goal for 180 minutes, which looks like an unreasonably worrisome start, but certainly without joy.

We're going to reiterate what we've been saying at the start of each season for the past few years.

If Braga want to do something in the league, if not the title, but finish runners-up and qualify for next season's Champions League, then they have to be more aggressive on the pitch!

If they are as consistent as they have been in the past few years, have largely failed to win games they should have lost, and have somehow failed to win a few games they should have won, then Braga's best result would be to secure a Europa League qualifying place.

Braga's ambitions are also very limited in the summer, but let's see how Braga will perform in their first home game in the league, and today their opponent is Maritimo, who beat them home and away last season, so Braga are naturally hoping to get their first win of the new season from them, which can also relieve the pressure on the shoulders of the new coach Yaltim to a certain extent!

Braga started today with 433.

Goalkeeper: Quem.

Defenders: Salino, Everton, Paulo Vinicius, Bayano.

Midfielders: Viana, Mahamat, Barbosa.

Forwards: Alain, Lima, Nuno Gomez.

Due to Europa League qualification, Braga made some changes today.

Maritimo started 433.

Goalkeeper: Pesania.

Defenders: Brigel, Roberge, Robinson, Reuben.

Midfielders: Sosa, Helton, Miranda.

Forwards: Sammy, Papa Diawara, Dias.

Now that the starting line-up has been introduced, let's enjoy the second round of the Portuguese Super League Braga vs Maritimo match at the Municipal Stadium! ”

Tang Hong watched the game very attentively, Maritimo is also a clear majority of foreign aid, and there is no limit to the number of foreign aid in the Portuguese Super League, which makes the Portuguese Super League more South American, especially Brazilian players as the main group.

Although Maritimo is a civilian team, there are no shocking hopefuls in the team, but there are still a few players worth paying attention to, Helton in the midfield, Diavala in the forward, Sami and other players, they are all players in the list of candidates for the recruitment of the three giants of the Portuguese Super League.

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

The reason why Braga's attack is not good is that the entire forward line is also quite reliable in Lima, and no matter how well the other forwards cooperate with him, they cannot form a good team chemistry.

Last season, Braga fell huge in the league, and the most important reason was that the forward line was not strong, the top 10 scorers in the league, and there were no Braga players in the top 15!

The start of the season seems to have continued this trend.

Improving the offense is the first priority for Artim.

Maritimo has a double defensive midfield configuration, and the offensive side mainly plays counter-attacks, creating danger many times.

Braga played like constipation, with Viana and Barbosa creating continuity in attack but unable to form an effective combination with the wings.

There's an obvious problem with attacking players who like to dribble a few steps after stopping the ball, which in itself is true, but if you always hit a dead end or are intercepted by the opposition, then there is a problem.

In the first half, the two teams exchanged blanks, Braga seemed to take the initiative, but in fact did not create much threat, but it was Maritimo who counterattacked several times and almost broke Braga's defense!

The Braga fans in the stands were still calm, not angry or disappointed, and had no intention of cheering on the team's performance, coming here to watch football is a part of their lives, but it is clearly not like some countries with a football atmosphere that take football as a religion.

Luckily, Yaltim shaved his head, otherwise his topless Mediterranean head would have been repeatedly touched by him in the first half, and he would have had a high abstract artistic conception!

Tang Hong got up and followed the team to the players' tunnel, but Vieira told Tang Hong to stay in the field to warm up after receiving instructions from Yaltim.

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