Zhang Desheng has great ambitions to win the Portuguese Super League Golden Boot, but no matter how big it is, he has to go a little further first.

Because he had only returned home for three days of rest, Barcelona went to Porto to seek revenge on him.

That's right, Barcelona is just looking for him by name to take revenge!

"Revenge?" At the pre-match reception the day before the game, Zhang Desheng responded very angrily after hearing the threatening news brought by the Catalan media, "If they really have this ability, then they will not come to me for revenge today!" ”

These words are really heartbreaking, especially with his disdainful tone, which almost made the Catalan media who collectively broke the defense at the scene eager to stuff the microphone into his mouth.

But it wasn't just the Catalan media that broke the defense, when it reached the ears of the Barcelona players the next day, a bunch of people hated it too!

However, Zhang Desheng doesn't take the opponent seriously, but in his heart he attaches great importance to this battle as much as the team.

Mourinho also explained the importance of this battle to the players before the game.

Now, as long as they can get a draw at home, they can qualify for the group one round earlier.

At this time, the four teams in Group F have played the first four games, and Porto has 9 points with 3 wins and 1 loss, but is in first place; Arsenal has 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, and is second with 7 points; Barcelona also has 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, and is third with 7 points; Israel has lost all four battles and can go back to bullying the Palestinians in advance.

Therefore, the qualifying situation of this group is already very clear, as long as Porto can get a draw at their home stadium tonight, then at least one second place can be guaranteed, and it can be determined that they will qualify from the group ahead of schedule.

Barcelona will also have to pick up at least a point away from Porto, as Arsenal are at home to Maccabi Haifa today, where all three points are almost a sure thing.

So Arsenal will have 10 points after today.

If Barcelona can't get a point from Porto, then the last game against the Gunners in London will have to be scored away from home.

At this time, the interesting thing comes, both sides of this game want to guarantee 1 point, but it is best to be able to win all three points, to put it bluntly, all with the mentality of "winning the peace"!

So Zhang Desheng rarely spoke to his teammates before he played.

He didn't say much, just took out a passage from "The Art of War" and translated it to his teammates, and this passage was: Seek it, get it; Seek it, get it; Seek it, and you will be defeated!

Mourinho was naturally a little upset when he heard this, because he felt that this sentence was too reasonable, especially on the football field, where there is always a situation where the draw is won and the end is lost.

The Porto players also deeply agreed with the words, especially when they heard that this was the content of the famous "Art of War", which was even more praised.

Zhang Desheng actually didn't want to be in the limelight, after all, it was a bit of a slap in the face to Mourinho, even if the latter didn't seem to care, it was still a bit inappropriate.

But he has to say that because the national football team just doesn't know how many times they have fallen under this situation where only one point is needed, he is really a bit PTSD in the face of this situation.

So, he really didn't want the team to go to Barcelona with the mentality that one point is enough.

Today, they have to do another bloody assault on Barcelona at home.

"Zhang, you reminded you very well, since we can play Barcelona 5:0 away from home, then there is no need to have the mentality of playing a draw when we return to the home stadium, today we have to at least give the home fans a victory!"

Mourinho really didn't care about the victorious mouth, because he felt that this kid's words made sense.

Besides, it was not Zhang Desheng's words, but the content of "The Art of War".

If he looks at it this way, it would be better for him to buy this book when he has time, after all, it is the greatest classic of strategic theory in human history, and he may be able to get some inspiration from it.

Zhang Desheng didn't know that his coach was going to watch the art of war when he was free, and he was happy that the team's goals and directions were agreed, so that he could be confident of completely defeating Barcelona at home.

But when he officially met Barcelona on the field an hour later, Zhang felt that he still overestimated the opponent who was looking for revenge.

He felt that Van Gaal on the other side had definitely not read "The Art of War", because he actually chose the strategy of "seeking it and getting it".

Van Gaal can't help it, who let them be fucked too hard at home.

Today is an away game, and if they run for all three points, they will probably not even get a point under greed.

Well, this is reverse thinking.

If Zhang Desheng knew that Van Gaal had this idea, he probably wouldn't be able to let out a fart for a long time.

What can he say?

It's a realistic option, and it even makes sense.

Therefore, although Barcelona made some adjustments to the lineup today, the first thing to play after the opening was a defensive counterattack, and even a bit of a sense of driving the bus up for a while.

Mourinho has a little pain off the field, why are they learning from me one by one? You don't think the bus is so good, do you?

Today's Porto start-(in the words of the writer in the future, no special explanation) - Barcelona start.

Zhang Desheng saw Xavi and Iniesta being moved to a position close to the wing, and then the £25 million Ovemas was put on the bench, and could only secretly say: Van Gaal really dares to use a newcomer!

He guessed that Van Gaal was also forced to do nothing, because after the massacre directed by him, Van Gaal was really almost swept away.

He estimates that this is also because Barcelona have not yet found a suitable replacement, otherwise they would have terminated Van Gaal's contract on the spot.

Such a humiliating defeat that is rare in the history of the team, Barcelona really has no other way to explain to the fans than to fire the coach!

Van Gaal also knew that his coaching in Barcelona had entered the countdown, so he drew a big red cross on Riquelme's name, and after writing his resignation letter in advance, he simply boldly used Iniesta, who has always been very optimistic, and put him and Xavi, plus a Mendieta, and Riquelme, who was ready to be taken away at that time, to form the new midfielder that Zhang Desheng saw today.

To be honest, this midfield is not a small problem, but it does make Riquelme comfortable all of a sudden.

His style is still out of step with Barcelona, but at least he's playing happily and showing his character.

Xavi and Andres Iniesta were left and right, but Van Gaal didn't let them actually go wide, but picked up Riquelme in the zone between the two lines.

Mendieta, of course, stood at the back and helped them do the dirty work of wiping their butts, and while his ability to do it was not comparable to that of Makelele, it was at least a positive effect.

But the question is, can such a completely incompatible midfield combination really exert the energy to beat Porto?

At this time, the camera gave Van Gaal a close-up, and the Dutch big nose sat dead on the bench after the opening, expressionless and silent.

After the start of the game, Porto was a little afraid to act rashly, they cautiously faced Barcelona who were in a defensive posture, and first had a strong onlooker!

First of all, this formation is too new.

Everyone knows that Barcelona is a team based on the "technical flow of play", so isn't it evil to defend this time?

But let's be honest, even if Barcelona defensively, it's a little different from Porto.

Their passing was clearly more unrestrained, or rather more aggressive, and they were ready to penetrate Porto's midfield with a through kick even when they were down the ball.

But the problem is, you don't have someone in the midfield who can directly take the ball to attack!?

Xavi and Andres Iniesta will be too young, even in their prime, they are not the kind of finishing players, but players who create space and create chances.

Also, it seems to be just a back waist? It's not the kind of back that is a husband and wife!

The most outrageous thing is still the classical front waist who doesn't know whether to describe it as a slow hidden killing machine, or a slow and delayed fighter.

Zhang Desheng always felt that Riquelme and the other 21 players in the field were not in the same style......

Wait, why doesn't he defend?

After the opening of Porto, they were cautiously testing for ten minutes, they were really worried that the other party had some killer features waiting for them.

But when they made a tackle at the back and then the ball bounced across Riquelme's area – the classical midfielder was watching gracefully and not competing with the Porto players at all?

"This ...... We were just scared by such a lazy dog in front of the waist and didn't dare to attack for ten minutes? ”

Zhang Desheng and his teammates were all the same idea at this moment, this is really a black face and looking in the mirror - scaring yourself!
