Facing the onrushing Porto goalkeeper Fabiano, Abang Lajo did not waste his chance and fired into the top right corner of the goal.

The ball went past Fabiano and into the net.

Villa have a one-goal lead.

…

Porto fell behind and began to intensify their attack.

Quaresma won the ball wide and Lowton intercepted it.

Unfortunately, he couldn't intercept it, but was dangled to the ground by Quaresma.

On the left side of the penalty area, Quaresma crosses the ball from the ground.

The ball was passed to Varela's feet.

Varela fired a direct left-footed volley into the bottom right corner of the goal.

Just as the ball was about to reach the goal line, Jose arrived.

I saw him pounce forward, like a predatory eagle, and with lightning speed, he held the ball directly in front of the goal.

"Whoa." The audience burst into warm applause.

The applause of the Porto fans was naturally given to Varela, who shot the goal.

And the applause of the Villa fans, of course, is for Jose.

…

Goal kick is taken.

Once again, there was a scramble in midfield.

After that, the Villa team had a number of chances on goal, but they were unable to find the back of the net held by Fabiano.

Compared to Villa's attack, Porto's attack appeared to be more ferocious.

In the 36th minute, Porto had an equalizer.

Porto were awarded another corner from the left.

It was their fifth corner of the game.

Quaresma was in charge of the handling.

Drive directly to the far point of the penalty area.

There was chaos in the exclusion zone.

Glancing at the altitude of the ball, Jose knew he had no more than a fifty percent chance of getting it.

José decisively gave up the attack.

An unmarked Martinez grabbed the ball.

However, he did not opt for the goal, as he found that Jose had blocked his shot.

Martinez opted for a header to the other side, with Pereira on the left side of the six-yard box.

Pereira first stopped the ball with his chest in the face of Martinez's pass, then took a shot from the Villa player before he could get close.

The ball rolls towards the bottom left corner.

At this time, José's figure had just run to the center of the goal.

Under normal circumstances, no goalkeeper can reach the left side of the goal in a matter of tenths of a second.

In the eyes of the Porto players, it will be a must-score.

However, Porto met Jose.

The space-time pause stunt was issued, and Ho Se bought a second.

One second, just enough for Jose to rush to the left side of the goal.

This time, instead of falling to the ground to save the ball, Jose stretched out his right foot and completely blocked the path of the ball's roll.

"How is that possible?" Pereira watched in disbelief as Jose blocked his own shot.

In the end, the first half ended with Villa leading by one goal.

The advantage of promotion has been greatly improved.

In the second half, Porto continued to keep the pressure on.

In the 48th minute, Delph made a mistake in the back pass and the ball reached the feet of Fernando.

Fernando counter-attacked on the spot and played the ball directly behind the Villa backline.

The ball reached the edge of the box.

Martinez took the lead and got the ball first.

Jose wanted to attack, but it was too late, and at this time, he was on the edge of the small penalty area.

Martinez took two steps forward and then opted to shoot into the far corner.

Martinez's volley is 3.3 metres high, which is normally enough to get past all the goalkeepers.

Unfortunately, Martinez met José.

Jose's bounce power has now reached nearly 90 centimeters, and with the height of his hand, he can directly lift the ball from a height of 3.3 meters directly out of the bottom line.

"What?" Martinez looked at Jose dumbfounded.

It's unbelievable that a person's bouncing height can reach such a level.

You know, it's football, not basketball.

Knowing that Jose's bouncing power was so terrifying, Martinez ......

Kick a little higher? In that case, without Jose jumping up, the ball will fly off the bottom line on its own.

Therefore, the players of Porto immediately understood a reason, if they want to break the goal guarded by Jose from the perspective of a high-altitude ball, it is too difficult.

Porto were awarded their sixth corner.

And the Villa team, so far, have not picked up a corner.

A long corner kick is taken and is confiscated by Jose.

Jose takes a quick goal kick.

"Violent heavy artillery."

José snorted.

With a "bang", the ball turned into a streamer, flew across the half court in an instant, and landed directly on the ribs of the Porto half.

Abang Laho sprinted forward and grabbed the ball first.

Single-pole opportunity.

It's a pity that Abang Laho's shot was directly confiscated by the opposing goalkeeper.

Or Porto's attack.

Outside the Villa penalty area, Porto had multiple passes and cooperated, and the Villa players were exhausted.

By this time, the game had reached the 55th minute.

Martinez picked up the ball just as he was about to burst towards the Villa penalty area.

Lowton flew to the kill, and with a slight push of his palm, Martinez fell to the ground on the spot.

Lowton received the first yellow card of the game.

Porto were awarded a free-kick in front.

The penalty spot is located on the left side of the penalty area, about 20 yards from goal.

Fernando was in charge of handling the free-kick opportunity.

Jose hurriedly organized his teammates to line up the human wall.

With the help of God's perspective, Jose blocked the opponent's shooting path to the greatest extent.

"Beep~" The referee's whistle sounded.

Fernando opted for a direct shot on goal.

Unfortunately, with most of the shots blocked, Jose was not a threat at all.

I saw that Jose easily took the opponent's shot.

Villa know very little about Porto's player characteristics, and Porto do the same for Villa's players.

They believe that as long as Benteke is guarded, the others will not be a problem.

They didn't even think about what kind of existence Jose was.

Porto came back after several failed performances and finally decided to start making substitutions.

Josue and Djilas came off the bench to replace Eduardo and Varela respectively.

In the 70th minute, Porto had a good chance to equalize.

Fernando crosses into the box.

The ball was at the feet of Djilas.

At the edge of the small penalty area, Djilas shot directly with his feet, the ball was fast, and the ball spun strongly.

"Time and space pause."

Without thinking, Jose directly used the plug-in stunt.

For just a second, Jose pounced quickly towards the shot while wondering how hard the ball would spin.

"There it is." José had a flash of inspiration.

Instead of saving the opponent's shot or blocking it with his hands, Jose tried to remove some of the spin of the ball and then make a save.

It's a long story, but José has done it in a very short time.

Incredibly, Jose kicked the opponent out of the high-speed spinning shot, in front of the goal line, and directly saved with his hands.

In the replay of the live video, you can see a trace of Jose unloading the ball spinning, but because it is too short, it does not attract people's attention at all.

"How is that possible?" The Porto fans exclaimed in unison.

"Is there still a chance for Porto?" A fan asked.
