Winters in Porto are not too cold and have a typical oceanic temperate broadleaf forest climate. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info But today is unusually cold. Probably because of the temperature of 7 degrees Celsius and the high humidity, there is an occasional gust of wind blowing, which feels particularly biting.

However, that's just the feeling of the people off the field.

For example, Rui Loureiro (RuiLoureiro), who was sitting on the bench, was looking at Chen Jianhao on the field with a cold body and a cold heart. Although he wore a wide puffer jacket, it didn't seem to have much effect. Especially when he heard Coach Mario Silva announce the starting list without his name, the chill in his heart was several times worse.

As of the last game, Lorero was the first choice for the center forward position in the youth team. He has made 22 appearances this season, scoring 21 goals and has been very consistent. In addition to 16-year-old central midfielder André Gomes (André Gomes), there is also left-back and youth captain Danny Fernandez, who recently turned 17, and he is the most favored player for Coach Silva of the rest of the players.

He thought that no one could threaten his position, but after witnessing Chen Jianhao single-handedly overturn Sporting Lisbon in his last match, Lorero began to feel that his position was in jeopardy.

It's just that he didn't expect this day to come so quickly. Just a week later, Coach Silva replaced him with Chen Jianhao without even consulting him.

At this point, his teammate Flavio Cardoso, who was also sitting on the bench, seemed to read his thoughts and chatted with him.

"Dude, what do you think?"

Lorero gave him a listless look and said, "I finally know how it's been like you've been sitting here all these years." ”

Flavio Cardoso, who also plays as a central striker, has been used as a substitute for Roureiro and has rarely played a chance. But he has a very good mentality, he is optimistic, neither humble nor arrogant, he trains hard, and he has a good relationship with his teammates and coaches - even his direct rival Lorero, who gets along very well. Flavio Cardoso knows that Lorero is more capable and more deserving of the starting position than himself. Therefore, he often humbly asks questions from the other party. In addition, he also believes that as long as he trains hard, sooner or later he will usher in the opportunity he deserves, just be patient and persevere, and it doesn't matter if you fight for it overnight.

Cardoso continued: "Don't worry too much about it, it's just a game. Every time a new player joins the team, the coach gives them some opportunities to perform. For example, when we first arrived, didn't we get the same treatment? ”

"Really? But this is an official league after all, how can the coach let a few newcomers start together......"

"We've been training together for a week and of course the coach knows what to expect – don't you remember the last time Coimbros was conceded seven goals by us? Still away! ”

“…… I'm just worried that there won't be a place for me after this game. What kind of level that red-haired kid is, you also saw it in the last game. ”

"You're thinking too much, how could he possibly kick that God-possessed performance every time?"

"What if he could?"

"Uh......" Cardoso suddenly didn't know what to say, so he had to comfort: "The coach values you very much and won't let you sit on the bench all the time." ”

Lorero smiled bitterly, "I hope so." ”

Just two minutes into the game, Chen Jianhao scored a goal to prove that Rorero's concern was correct.

It's just that the goal was a bit of a surprise.

After the home team served, Chen Jianhao passed back to Fernandes, and then immediately rushed forward, but Fernandez's diagonal long pass did not find him, but fell to the opponent's head and was pushed back to his own half.

André Gomez in the midfield got the ball and saw that Chen Jianhao had no intention of stopping, so he made another long pass with a big foot and chased after Chen Jianhao.

The ball was extremely fast, and the ball went over Chen Jianhao's head and smashed directly into the penalty area. The opponent's goalkeeper attacked to clear the siege, but he missed the spot, and the ball unexpectedly bounced to Chen Jianhao's feet. Chen Jianhao only cared about running forward, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly, and when he saw that the defenders around him didn't keep up, he wanted to continue to dribble the ball and pass the goalkeeper before shooting.

However, despite the goalkeeper's rough footwork, the reaction was timely. He rushed towards Chen Jianhao without hesitation, slid and shoveled over desperately, and with a hook of his leg, he just broke the ball.

This back and forth has had several accidents, and Chen Jianhao's lack of preparation is understandable. In fact, no one expected the opposing goalkeeper to use such a trick. Chen Jianhao saw that the other party's "severed child and grandson leg" had stretched out to his crotch, and his heart was cold, and it was still important to protect himself, so he jumped suddenly and avoided the goalkeeper's attack.

After the goalkeeper hooked the ball, there was no room for adjustment, and with a flick of the situation, the ball was cleared to the left.

At this time, Chen Jinwu, who was the left winger, immediately killed and collected the ball. Chen Jinwu glanced at it and saw that the goalkeeper had quickly retreated to the door, so he stepped down at an extremely fast speed. While rushing forward with the ball, he observed Chen Jianhao's position, and when he saw that he was finally running on the same line as himself, he immediately crossed.

The timing of the cross was right, but the technique was poor. The shot went wide and high and flew towards the far post. Chen Jinwu is not very good at crossing, especially in this kind of fast running. But the ball slammed into the feet of the defender and bounced back in front of goal. Chen Jianhao just stood in the middle of the forbidden area, waiting for the rabbit, and didn't think about picking up another big bargain - this pie delivered to his mouth, Chen Jianhao would never miss it. I saw him unload the ball with ease and push it into the goal.

In a short period of time, there were so many situations, Coach Silva, who was standing on the sidelines, was dumbfounded and couldn't help but say: "Pan, do you think this is a mistake, or is it a keen sense of smell in front of the goal?" ”

Little Panhaha laughed and said, "It doesn't matter, what you think is what you are." ”

"I knew that an opponent of this level couldn't help him, but the ball went in too fast...... It's a bit of a mess. ”

"Ha, I'm afraid he won't be able to adapt here, I didn't expect it to be so easy, and he has scored in two consecutive games."

Why? Don't you believe in his strength? ”

"I thought that the technical and tactical level of Europe was too high, and it should be difficult for children from China to adapt. Now it seems that I was overthinking. ”

"Not necessarily. His tactical literacy may still need to be improved, but when it comes to technical aspects, he is definitely one of the best geniuses. Even if you look at Portugal as a whole, there are not many talented goalscorers like him. Let's be honest, in fact, the gap in football quality in many countries is not as big as you think, as long as you stay for a few years. ”

"Really?" Although Silva praised Chen Jianhao, Xiao Pan also felt a little flattered. He thought for a moment and said, "Looks like I should thank you for him." ”

"You're welcome, I'm not saying polite words. Portugal's youth system is probably the most inclusive, with kids from all over the world. It is unbiased to say that in fact, different nationalities and races have their own advantages, and talented players may appear in any country. Including your country. I believe that the lack of strength of your national team is due to a combination of factors, not because your children are not good. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Pan was suddenly a little moved and said, "Mario, thank you very much." ”

Four minutes later, Boavista added another goal, scored by Andre Gomez.

This goal was easier to score. Coimbros' players don't seem to have any fighting spirit at all, and they are passive at the back. The four defenders lined up, and after passing a dozen kicks aimlessly, seeing that Boavista's players did not move, they simply made a long pass. This kick really implemented the spirit of the Chinese national team's long pass of prevarication responsibility, and the ball floated high and slowly across the half court and landed at the feet of Wu Tianchang.

Wu Tianchang didn't dare to slack off, and immediately passed it to Andre Gomez. Although his opponent did not mean to press him, he was inexplicably nervous, fearing that the ball would be at his feet for a few more seconds and cause a catastrophe.

Andre Gomez took the ball, collided with his team-mate on the right a couple of times, and slipped into the box without much effort. The opponent's defense was useless, and Shengsheng gave him a smooth road. Eventually, Andre Gomez received a through ball from another midfielder, Mario Pereira, and pushed it into the net again.

After this goal, Boavista's whole team slackened. In the next few dozen minutes, there was no more goal, and the first half ended with a score of 2:0.

At the end of the break, Chen Jianhao was a little depressed. Except for the first goal on target, he barely touched the ball again.

The home team's 63% possession rate firmly prevailed, but there was nothing to do with Chen Jianhao. The teammates seem to be more willing to pass it to Chen Jinwu because of his diligent running, and because he is usually more willing to communicate and is more familiar with his teammates - in fact, Chen Jianhao is not unwilling to communicate, but often he gestures for a long time, and the other party can't understand half of the sentence. And Chen Jinwu has his own things to do, and it is impossible to be by his side as a translator all the time.

In order to get more chances to touch the ball, Chen Jianhao also began to retreat frequently. However, his teammates still ignored him, and he only touched the ball three times throughout the first half. And it's all passed on by Chen Jinwu.

In fact, Chen Jianhao also understood that his teammates did not intend to isolate him, but just played a little loosely. Moreover, his running did not create too many good chances, and his team-mates did not want to hand over the ball easily, but more passed in the middle and back.

Chen Jinwu really wanted to perform in front of the coach, and tried to pass four or five straight stops, but the result was not to Chen Jianhao's feet. There was a ball that was passed very well, but Chen Jianhao saw that the opponent's defender had caught up, so he gave up. In fact, if you fight this ball, there is still a chance. It's just that the opponent in this game was really too weak, and the ball was controlled so easily that everyone unconsciously slowed down - even Coach Silva didn't pay attention to the opponent, just watched quietly from the sidelines.

Seeing that the game was getting more and more dull, Govia, who was sitting in the office, couldn't help but frown. The teacup had been held in his hand for a long time, and he took a sip, resisting the urge to interfere.

On the one hand, he thinks that even if you want to be excited about this kind of game, you have to be stimulated by external forces, and it is unrealistic to rely on the coach to just talk nonsense that "the opponent is very strong, you can't underestimate them". I don't even believe in this kind of thing. On the other hand, he also wants to see how Chen Jianhao will deal with it without the support of his teammates.
