tenth

In the next few warm-up matches, Qiu Ze and Rui Costa will take turns to play. The chances of the two are 50.00% each. Have confidence.

Last season, Benfica lost to Waterloo in the league and only finished third in the league. This made Benfica very dissatisfied. Benfica's goal this season is the league championship.And, in the Champions League, Benfica also wants to go one step further.

Benfica's goal is very ambitious, but in Qiu Ze's memory, Benfica's performance this season was very unsatisfactory. They still only finished third in the league, and they didn't even qualify for the group in the Champions League.And this is not the saddest thing. The saddest thing is that since last season, Benfica will miss the Portuguese Super League championship for four consecutive seasons, and even fail to make it to the top three and miss the Champions League. This is a relatively dark period for Benfica.

Before coming to Benfica, Qiu Ze thought of this, but he still came.In Beiramar, he was able to lead Beiramar to win the Portuguese Cup and make history. He also firmly believes that in Benfica, he can also make history.

Now there is not much time before the start of the new season, and before the start of the league, Benfica still has two Champions League qualifying games to play.

葡萄牙超级联赛有三个欧冠名额，不过这三个名额并不是“3”的形式，而是“1+1+0.5”的形式。也就是说葡超联赛的联赛No.1和No.2直接晋级欧冠小组赛，而联赛No.3将要参加欧冠资格赛。

The champion of the Portuguese Super League last season was Porto, the second in the league was Sporting Lisbon, and the third in the league was Benfica.Therefore, Porto and Sporting Lisbon qualify directly, while Benfica will participate in the Champions League qualifying round.

The strength of the teams participating in the Champions League qualifiers this time is very strong. The European giants include AC Milan, Arsenal and Liverpool, etc. The other teams in the five major European leagues include Chievo, Valencia, Hamburg , Lille, Osasuna, etc., other teams are also frequent visitors to the Champions League.

Therefore, this qualifying match is still very difficult, but Benfica is lucky. Their opponent in the draw is Rapid Vienna from Austria. Among the teams participating in the UEFA Champions League qualifying round, this team is ranked at the bottom of the list. .

Benfica is very satisfied with the result of this match. They seem to have seen the hope of qualifying for the Champions League.In terms of the schedule, Benfica is the first guest and then the host, and it also has a great advantage in the schedule. Under such circumstances, if none of them can advance, Benfica fans must not be able to accept it.

The entire Benfica team went to Vienna, Austria two days in advance. They had to adapt to the climate and the stadium there. Of course, Qiu Ze also went with the team. He appeared in the squad for this game, but he did not start the game. Rui Costa.

In this game, Benfica played very difficult. They conceded a goal less than 10 minutes into the game.This game was not as easy as they imagined. After conceding the goal, Benfica besieged Vienna Rapids frantically, and their strength was unacceptable to them.

However, after besieging Rapid Vienna for nearly 75 minutes, Benfica still failed to break through the opponent's goal. Just when the fans of Benfica Akon thought they would have an away game, Qiu Ze, who came off the bench in the second half of the game, blasted a long shot from the front of the penalty area. scored the opponent's goal and helped the team draw with the opponent in the away game.

Qiu Ze's goal was that Benfica's corner kick was pushed out of the penalty area by the opponent's defensive player.At that time, Qiu Ze happened to be at the front of the penalty area, and the magma football flew over. He didn't stop the ball, but kicked up and swung it directly.

This is the first goal Qiu Ze scored in an "official game" after joining Benfica, which is worth commemorating.

With the advantage of an away goal, Benfica returned to their home court. At their home court, Qiu Ze got the chance to start.This is also Qiu Ze's first appearance at Benfica's Stadium of Light. Qiu Ze appeared in the Stadium of Light wearing Benfica's red No. 10 jersey.

The Benfica fans at the scene were very excited. A few months ago, they had fantasized about Qiu Ze wearing the Benfica red jersey playing for Benfica. Now that they finally saw it, they were very excited.

In the stadium, listening to the Benfica fans shouting his name, Qiu Ze felt very comfortable.At the same time, he sighed in his heart: "Also in Lisbon, why is the gap between this team and the team so big?"

As long as Benfica keeps a clean sheet in this game, they will eliminate Rapid Vienna and compete in the next round.However, Benfica is not an Italian team. Defense is not their strong point, but offense is. The offensive factor is in their blood. Therefore, Benfica will not choose any defensive counterattack in this game.

From the very beginning of the game, Benfica launched a fierce attack, besieging Rapid Vienna.Benfica's attack is not the same as that of Bellamar, which is fast, concise and direct.And Benfica's offense is through continuous conduction, advancing layer by layer.

And Qiu Ze is the core power of Benfica in the midfield. He is like an axis of Benfica, and other players revolve around him.Qiu Ze took the ball from the backcourt and used the pass to allow Benfica to advance layer by layer, pressing towards Vienna's fast penalty area.

Vienna's fast defense is very desperate, the attack is very strong, and the fighting is very fierce.However, before they pounced, the football was passed by the Benfica players.Benfica's players used their passing and technical advantages to manipulate Vienna's fast defense.

"Armando, here!" Qiu Ze shouted at Petit in the backcourt.Petit saw Qiu Ze raised his hand to ask, and he immediately passed the football up.

As soon as Qiu Ze caught the football, he felt someone behind him quickly sticking up. Qiu Ze, who was holding the ball behind his back, did not stick to the ball, and immediately passed the football across the side, and the football quickly rolled towards Simao on the side.After passing the ball, Qiu Ze turned around quickly, dodged Vienna's fast-rushing players, and rushed forward quickly.

"Simang, here!" Qiu Ze, who was rushing forward, shouted loudly. Simao didn't stick the ball, and directly handed the football back to Qiu Ze, while he himself rushed forward towards the sidewalk.

At this time, the football rolled towards Qiu Ze in the middle, so Vienna's fast defensive attention was all in the middle.Seeing Simao rushing forward, the full-back on the side didn't move to the side, so the side became Simao's fast lane.

Qiu Ze, who was holding the ball forward, looked at all directions and listened to all directions. Without Ximang's gestures, Qiu Ze saw the vacancy.He immediately pushed the arch of his foot vigorously and passed the football diagonally to the side.

Qiu Ze passed the ball very well, fast enough, and the line had a little arc.Moreover, he did not pass under Simao's feet, but passed in front of Simao's body, giving Simao room to accelerate.

Seeing Qiu Ze passing the ball, Vienna's fast version defender immediately shoveled towards the football passing by him. Unfortunately, his legs were a centimeter shorter, and the football passed directly in front of him and flew towards the ball. the sidewalk behind him.

There, Simao rushed forward like a small red sports car. Qiu Ze passed the ball very well. The arc high ball passed the fast center back of Vienna, and flew directly to the center of Benfica, Nuno Gomez, who jumped high in the middle.

The ball was very easy for Nuno Gomez, because there was no one in front of him or behind him. He had already thrown away the Vienna Rapid central defender by a position. He jumped high and threw the ball He threw his head hard towards the far corner of the goal.

Rapid Vienna's goalkeeper couldn't react in time, and the football hit the net, [-]-[-], and Benfica led Vienna Rapid [-]-[-].

The Benfica fans at the scene were excited and cheered wildly.Benfica's offense is simply too smooth, and Qiu Ze's scheduling in the middle is indispensable. This goal has a lot of credit to be recorded in Qiu Ze's head.

Qiu Ze was very happy at this time. It was a lucky thing to be able to integrate into a new environment so quickly and get such a good start.

In the first half of the game No. 16 minutes, Benfica took a one-goal lead, which made Benfica fans more confident that their team can advance to the next round.

Rapid Vienna has nothing to do with Benfica, who is playing at home, because Rapid Vienna is not Benfica's opponent at all, both technically and overall, and it is difficult for them to stop Benfica.

This is not the first half of the game No. 303 minutes, Benfica's offense came again, or Qiu Ze's scheduling in the middle, Qiu Ze continuously poured the football to the two sides, scheduling Vienna's fast defense.During this period of time, Vienna's fast defense switched two consecutive sideways, which was indeed very hard.

And when the football returned to Qiu Ze's feet in the middle, Qiu Ze suddenly sent a straight forward pass through the ball, hitting the back of Rapid Vienna's centre-back.Under Qiu Ze's back-and-forth scheduling of the Vienna's fast defenders, the defense in the center is no longer so compact, and at this time, the Vienna's fast defenders have formed a habit in their minds, and one of them, Qiu Ze, will also The football was sent to the side, so when Qiu Ze sent the ball straight across, they were a little dazed.

However, Simao, who quickly cut in from the side, was not dazed. Simao went straight behind the Vienna Rapid center back, caught the football and faced the Vienna Rapid goalkeeper single-handedly.

Rapid Vienna players raised their hands to indicate that Simão was offside, but neither the referee nor the linesman said so.Simao easily passed the goalkeeper, and the football was tight and empty, two to zero.

Benfica leads Rapid Vienna with a total score of [-] to [-]. This goal has basically announced the death penalty for Rapid Vienna.But the Benfica people did not show mercy. When the first half of the game was about to stay overnight, Qiu Ze suddenly moved the football to the other side after two consecutive one-to-one passes with Simao on the wing.

After receiving the ball, Calagonis on the other side laid the ball into the penalty area with one step, and then took a step in the penalty area, kicking up and bombarding her directly. The football smashed into the Vienna Rapid goal like a shell, [-]-[-] .

At the end of the first half, Benfica led [-]-[-] on aggregate, and Rapid Vienna had no chance.Benfica's head coach Santos replaced Qiu Ze, who had shown seductiveness in this game, with Rui Costa.

In the No.30 minute of the second half, Rui Costa succeeded with a long shot from outside the penalty area and broke the goal of Rapid Vienna, rewriting the score to [-]-[-]. This is Rui Costa's return First goal since Benfica.
