After every international break, Ruben Amorim, the head coach of Sporting Portugal, has a headache.

Amorim is an excellent representative of the young coaches of Portuguese football. At just 35 years old, he has an illustrious resume as a player, competing in two World Cups in 2010 and 2014, winning three Portuguese Super League titles and seven cup trophies.

And he took off his jersey and put on a suit, and he also had a high starting point in the coach's seat, directly coaching the "fourth strongest in the Portuguese Super League" Braga team. Later, because of his brilliant record, he was snatched directly from his old club by Sporting Portugal with a record penalty of 10 million euros.

It can be said that Amorim is one of the most high-profile young leaders in Portugal's new generation of coaches.

However, this excellent young coach has been suffering from the FIFA virus. From the time he was a player, his form was repeatedly affected by the FIFA virus, and he always did not play well after the national team break. Now, as a coach, there is still no good way to cure the FIFA virus that plagues the team.

For this reason, he was quite distressed, and asked the two kings of the national team, Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo, how they overcame the FIFA virus and remained in good shape after the national team break.

To this, the two of them replied surprisingly unanimously: "Talent, plus consistent hard training!" ”

Amorim was not very satisfied with this answer, and even thought that the two leading brothers of the national team were fooling him. If you have a good talent, you can resist the virus? It must be that they have some exclusive secret to staying in shape, and they are reluctant to share it!

Rather than meeting a weak team, Amorim would rather meet a strong team after the international break. Because there are many international players in strong teams, everyone is affected by the virus, and their illness is half a pound or two.

This time. According to the schedule, they met Maritimo.

Before the start of the season, Amorim was a little worried when he saw such a schedule, because at that time, Maritimo was a standard weak team, and there were no national players in the team.

How could such a bad team be affected by the FIFA virus.

However, the peak turned around, but I didn't expect the dog's tail grass to have a spring! Maritimo actually came all the way! So far, it's the top of the standings! What's more, this broken team has an unprecedented 11 players selected for national teams at all levels!

In particular, when Amorim learned that 5 of the Maritimo players went to China for training and 2 went to Brazil for training, his mentality suddenly calmed down a lot, and it seemed that the FIFA virus was not so hateful!

This is the so-called mentality of "not suffering from widowhood but suffering from inequality, not suffering from poverty but suffering from anxiety"!

Amorim believes that compared to himself, the other team, a poor and rich team, and a young coach who has never had professional experience, are even more uncomfortable with the FIFA virus!

When Amorim saw Maritimo's starting line-up, he was even more convinced of his own judgment.

In Maritimo's starting lineup, except for Antonio, the other 10 people all participated in the national number training camp!

This Chinese coach doesn't understand anything at all! Football is not only about strength, but sometimes it is more important to be on the field!

Although Amorim knew that his team was not in good shape, he decided to teach Maritimo's Chinese coach a lesson!

But after the start of the game, Amorim was shocked and almost dislocated his jaw.

The other party doesn't seem to be infected by the FIFA virus at all, one by one, they are fierce, in full condition, fighting the field, running back and forth.

On the other hand, his own players, as if they were filled with lead in their legs, had to work hard every step they took, as if they had just entered the "sage mode", and they were not excited at all.

"Damn, delusion, it must be delusion!" Amorim muttered to himself.

Purely in terms of flight distance, the opponent has to fly farther and more tired than their own players, why are they not affected, one by one so energetic!

But as the game progressed, Amorim found more and more that the opponent seemed to have endless strength, not to mention that he had just been attacked by the FIFA virus, even if he was an opponent he usually played, it was rare to be so fierce!

I saw the opponents in red uniforms running all over the field, and the players in green and white striped uniforms looked like a group of old men with old arms and legs, and it was difficult to walk.

But the young opponents obviously have little respect for the old and love for the young, and they rely on their youth and strength to rush and rush and wreak havoc on the court like a storm.

For a while, Sporting Portugal's goal was in turmoil, and it looked like there was a possibility of conceding a goal at any time.

"Damn, what did that Chinese do! Why aren't his players tired at all?! Amorim prayed for God to bless. Don't concede the ball while wondering what kind of panacea there is in Takato.

"Is it really talent, as Figo and Ronaldo said? Impossible! There are more players in your own team than the opponent's big names, and your own players must be stronger in terms of talent! ”

Just when Amorim was worried, the situation on the field suddenly changed, and Sporting Portugal scored first.

The goal came from a corner.

Wendell took the corner kick on the right side, but I don't know if he didn't master the footwork well, or the lack of physical fitness caused the technical deformation, in short, the corner kick he opened kicked off, and the expected big arc "spoon" cross turned into a straight out of the "chopsticks"!

This time was beyond everyone's expectations, there were several people standing in front of the Maritimo team, but the opponent's corner kick line was too weird, and the ball speed was extremely fast, and Danso, who was on the outermost periphery, didn't react at all, and waited for the ball to reach the front of him and then pick his foot, it was too late.

The Portuguese national youth player actually kicked it empty!

And his hollowing shook Joao behind him, and Joao also missed the ball by mistake.

The ball flew straight to the middle of the penalty area.

The middle of the penalty area was crowded with players from both sides, and now it was like a big fat chicken jumping into the weasel den, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

The ball bumped around in the crowd like a pool ball, and finally goalkeeper Niu Gensheng was quick to save, and he flew up to clear the siege.

This kind of ball is resolutely not allowed to go forward, the correct way is to save, if not, it has to be cleared on both sides of the goal. But Niu Gensheng, who played football for a short time, suffered a loss of inexperience, although he usually heard the coach talk about the principles of handling this kind of ball, but he still remembered a lot in the hurry.

kicked out, but the ball happened to be suffocated on Zhou Yong, who couldn't dodge. The powerful ball hit Zhou Yong's chest, and with a "bang", Zhou Yong fell down in response.

The ball was also bounced into the net nest close at hand by Zhou Yong's strong chest muscles!

Own goal!

Sporting de Portugal unexpectedly took the lead in an extremely passive situation.

The José Alvalad Stadium was in a state of flux, and the home fans were amused by the unexpected and hilarious goal as they celebrated their lead.

Everyone on the bench of the away team covered their faces with their hands, both regretful and ashamed, this kind of conceding is too amateurish!

Gao Yuan's face sank like water, and he knew that for Niu Gensheng's several draft-born wild road players, making mistakes was like paying taxes. It's inevitable. It is said that good players are fed by the game, and making such a mistake in actual combat is better than emphasizing it 1,000 times!

However, goalkeeper coach Baia was not so good-tempered, and he roared loudly at Niu Gensheng from the bench, and his face was full of anger.

As a goalkeeper coach, Niu Gensheng is his player and a potential new star that he is very optimistic about. The legendary Portuguese door god had high hopes for Niu Gensheng, hoping that this young man from the East could inherit his mantle, so he was also stricter than anyone else.

Making such a low-level mistake is not allowed by him, a master!

Niu Gensheng was also slumped, knowing that he had made a big mistake, and his face was gloomy and bleak in self-reflection.

And poor Zhou Yong was slammed in the chest, and he almost lost his breath, but under the emergency treatment of the team doctor, he finally recovered his breath.

And the home coach Amorim who witnessed this scene also had mixed feelings:

The first feeling is that my team is being pressed by this kind of amateur team!

The second feeling is that the weak team on the football field relied on set-pieces to break the goal, and his dignified Sporting de Portugal took the lead with such a disgusting goal, is his team really the weak side?

The third feeling, what to resist the virus depends on talent, nonsense! It's obviously by luck!
