Chapter 39: Pacifying the Portuguese Again

In the evening, Lu Feng went to Fernandez to learn free kicks, but today, Lu Feng's form was not too good, and mistakes were frequent.

Fernandez, who was on the side, couldn't stand it anymore and stopped Lu Feng.

"What's wrong with you today, you don't look like you're in shape, are you still thinking about yesterday."

Lu Feng knew that Fernandez had already seen it, so he simply stopped hiding it and nodded.

"It's all my fault, I let the team lose, and everyone's hard work was in vain."

"So, you've been beating yourself up, haven't you?" Fernandez's voice was cold, and he looked at Lu Feng expressionlessly.

"I didn't, I just." Lu Feng hurriedly defended.

"Just what." Fernandez interrupted Lu Feng's words. "What you're doing now seems to me to be self-defeating. Mistakes are not terrible, what is terrible is to be immersed in the shadow of mistakes and unable to extricate themselves, and finally not make any progress. ”

"I didn't give up on myself." Lu Feng is still explaining.

Fernandez looked at Lu Feng, "Mistakes mean that you are not strong enough, and if you are not strong enough, you have to become stronger." If you want to become stronger, there is no other shortcut except for your own continuous efforts. From your current performance, I don't see any desire on your part to become stronger. ”

After listening to this, Lu Feng realized his mistake, he attached too much importance to yesterday's own goal mistake. Mistakes are such things, the past should be let pass, and it should not be entangled all the time. In this way, it will not do you any good at all.

Lu Feng nodded and admitted his mistake.

"I'm sorry Fell, I was wrong, I'll forget about my mistakes and train hard."

"It's not for you to forget." Fernandez smiled slightly, Lu Feng, this kid finally got a little enlightened, but he still didn't understand everything. "It's so that you don't dwell on your mistakes, but you still have to remember them and don't make them again in the future."

"Hmm." Lu Feng agreed, and started training free kick techniques again.

"Still." Fernandez touched his chin, all the way he thought.

Lu Feng was puzzled, "What?" ”

Fernandes smiled, "Your own goal is still quite beautiful, and when you throw that header, the action is still quite standard, and you have the style of a top striker." ”

When Lu Feng heard this, his feet slipped and he almost fell.

Seeing this, Fernández behind him smiled even more unscrupulously.

Lu Feng couldn't help but wonder in his heart, whether it was lucky or unfortunate to have such an unscrupulous master.

..

Three days later, Santos set off as a team to take on the Portuguese away.

The Portuguese team is not strong in terms of strength, and it is not weak in terms of weakness. Every year, they can enter the top eight and break into the playoffs. In 19 years, he even beat Sao Paulo in an upset to win the championship. Therefore, even if it was a derby with St. Paul five days later, Curry did not dare to spare the slightest hand, and still sent the main force to play.

Lu Feng's own goal in the final stage of the game did not affect his impression in Curry's mind, and Lu Feng was given the opportunity to start.

Of course, this is also related to the 433 formation that Santos discharged in this game. The three forwards, how can there be a place for Lu Feng.

In this game, the Portuguese did not choose conservative tactics in the face of Santos, who was superior to themselves, but boldly chose to attack Santos.

Curry smiled when he saw the Portuguese choose to play against his own team, as if the game was already in the driver's seat.

It's just that when the game is over, except for the fans, neither the whole Santos team nor the Portuguese team can laugh.

The two teams teamed up to dedicate a wonderful offensive battle to the fans, and the dazzling offensive cooperation of the two sides again and again made the fans very enjoyable. Of course, if the score is not 0-0, I believe the fans will be more satisfied.

The two teams battled each other in the game, and each had good chances to score, but neither side could find the back of the net until the final minute of the game.

At the end of the match, Santos' goalkeeper Gulidev was named the best of the match with 8. A high rating of 3, several key saves from the Portuguese. And Santos' goalkeeper De Villeson was not far behind, with an eight. 1 rating.

A game that was supposed to be a big score, but in the end, it created the supergod of the goalkeepers of both sides.

The combined number of shots on goal was 32, including 13 in the woodwork, but there were so many shots on goal that not a single goal was scored. Lu Feng also almost scored with two shots in this game, one at the post and one at the woodwork.

After the game, Curry spoke to reporters and reluctantly praised Portuguese goalkeeper De Vierson.

'De Viersohn was very impressive today. We were so unlucky that countless goals were denied by the woodwork and the posts. I think the Portuguese have a good idea of how to thank their goal, if it wasn't for the great goal, it wouldn't have been an unacceptable draw tonight. ”

The Portuguese's head coach Alan was also unrelenting.

"Curry should be more thankful for Gulijeff and the goal, otherwise his team would have suffered two straight defeats. The team performed very well today, showing their quality both offensively and defensively, and as for not scoring, we can only blame it on bad luck. ”

No matter how much the two managers go to war with each other, they can't change the fact that this game is a draw. After an away defeat to Corinthians and a draw with the Portuguese, Santos slipped to third place in the table, with Palmeiras, who had been third-placed, overtaking Santos to second place after winning at home.

The gap between Santos and Sao Paulo, who is fourth, is only 2 points. If Santos loses in the next game, he will slip to fourth place in the standings.

Curry was under a lot of pressure, and the game he thought he would win would end up being tied 0-0. In the next game, Santos can't afford to lose again in any case.

Like Curry, Sao Paulo head coach Costa doesn't want to lose this game. Sao Paulo's strong form at the start of the league gave fans hope of winning the championship, but a wave of three games without a win quickly caused Sao Paulo to quickly slip to sixth place.

Fortunately, Costa adjusted in time, and the team slowly rose up to fourth place in the standings. And against Santos, as long as he wins, he can return to third, and Costa wants to win this game anyway.

What's more, the final league title is unsurprisingly between the top five teams, and the match with Santos will make Costa more familiar with the opponent's style of play. The regular season isn't very important, but it's also the best opportunity to get to know each other.

Moreover, this is the home stadium of Sao Paulo, and a home loss is unbearable for the fans and the club's hierarchy.

So, a game that no one could afford to lose, unfolded at the Molumbi Stadium in São Paulo.
