Chapter 94 Under Pressure
In the ninth round of the championship, Sao Paulo's away game to San Caetano is only three days away from the eighth round.

So Rong Guang only practiced long-range shots for a day before he was able to catch the ducks on the shelves.

This time, he was still the starter.

When Grayson in the media seat saw Rong Guang reappearing in the starting lineup, he spread his hands and shook his head and said, "Osvaldo is so stubborn!"

In his opinion, Osvaldo is obviously doing the right thing with the media—the media said it was wrong to do so, so he just wanted to do it.

I really don't know what to do!

Grayson snorted inwardly.

If you go on like this, you will lose your job sooner or later!

Originally won the Rio-Sao Paulo Championship in Sao Paulo, which consolidated Osvaldo's position as coach.But if Osvaldo continues to do this, he will be fired sooner or later.

Brazilian football clubs are impatient.

This can be seen from Sao Paulo and Osvaldo themselves.

After Sao Paulo's most glorious period in the 90s passed, the Brazilian football art master Santana left.

During the six years from 1996 to 2002, a total of [-] coaches were changed, and [-] coaches took office. Among them, Mursi Ramalho served as the head coach of Sao Paulo twice.

Such an intensive change of head coaches, some head coaches were even replaced after only leading the team to play one game.

Osvaldo de Oliveira made his debut in Corinthians in 1999 and coached Corinthians. In his first season, he won the championship of the Sao Paulo State League One.

In the same year, he also won the 1999 Brazilian National League Championship.

The following year, in 2000, in the first World Club Cup organized by FIFA, he led Corinthians to win the championship and became the world champion.

Such outstanding results were forced to leave Corinthians because they offended the "Loyalty Eagles", the most influential Corinthians fan organization. In 2000, he joined another giant, Vasco da Gama in Rio State, and won the Mercosur Cup in the first year of coaching the team (in 1998, a large-scale intercontinental football tournament in South America funded by a consortium in the second half of the year. Held once a year, the South Cup consists of 2001 traditional giants from Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay and Paraguay. The fatal event was suspended in 2002 due to the withdrawal of Brazilian clubs, and was replaced by the South American Cup in [-], author's note).

Also in the second half of the year, he also led Vasco de Gama to the semi-finals of the Brazilian National Championship.

However, after falling out with Vasco Da Gama's club owner Eulik Miranda, he transferred to another giant in Rio, Fluminense, and helped Fluminense reach the semi-finals of the Brazilian National League A in 2001. Scolari, who was Cruzeiro's coach at the time, hugged.As a result, this move angered Miranda, because before the start of the season, Miranda originally planned to invite Scolari to coach Vasco da Gama, but was ruthlessly rejected by Scolari.Scolari's refusal made Miranda suffocate. Now that Osvaldo took the initiative to express his kindness to Scolari, he decided that Osvaldo was trying to embarrass himself.So after this game, he was fired by Vasco da Gama.As for the national championship that Vasco Da Gama won in the end, it has nothing to do with him...

Four teams have been changed in less than three and a half years, which is quite frequent.

This may be related to the national characteristics of the Brazilians.

This is a fun-loving nation, naturally optimistic, so there is no long-term plan.For them, instant gratification is king.

This is reflected in football as well.Up to the National Football Association, down to ordinary teams, there is a lack of long-term planning.If the Brazilian Football Association has a long-term plan, the development of domestic football in Brazil will not be so bad... And their head coaches are basically signed every year. This season, a coach is invited. If you can win the championship, you will carnival.

Even for a giant club like Sao Paulo, their term of office is only two years!

What is enough for two years in football?
Even they themselves think that two years is too short, and the chairman of the Sao Paulo club thinks that it would be good if the term is three years... I can't complain anymore, is three years long?

For Brazilians, three years is a long time.

※※※

No one is optimistic about Rongguang's performance in this game.

Because he hasn't had a decent performance in three consecutive games.

This game may be the same as the previous three games. He went up to set off how brave Kaka is.

Sao Paulo's performance does not seem to be worth looking forward to.

In the first half, Sao Paulo fell behind San Caetano 0:1.

In the Rio-Sao Paulo Championship in the first half of the year, Sao Paulo once lost to San Caetano.

This team can be described as an emerging force that has risen in Brazilian football in recent years.

They emerged in the extremely chaotic Havelange Cup in 2000.The São Paulo team, which was founded in 1989, is very young, but ten years after the team was established, they reached the final of the National Championship. They were the biggest dark horse in the 2000 National Championship.

In the 2001 National Championships, they reached the final again, but this time they lost to Atletico Parana.

Although they have never been able to win enough championships, they have reached the finals twice in a row, and their strength should not be underestimated.

At home, it is not surprising that Sao Paulo led in the first half.

Rongguang didn't have any outstanding performances in the first half, and naturally there were no goals.

During the intermission, he thought of what the little fairy told him.

Long shot!

In the first half, Rong Guang didn't take a long shot because he felt that he hadn't practiced yet.

But looking at it like this, I have to take it out and try it if I haven't practiced it...

He put his head down and began to imagine how he would shoot from long range in the second half.

Do I kick up after shaking someone away?

I'm good with my right foot, so I have to space opponents to my left...

What if the opponent comes up to interfere with me?
Seeing Rong Guang lower his head, Fabiano thought he was depressed about his performance in the first half.So she patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.

He signaled him not to put too much pressure on himself, and he went from a layman to a main player of the first team in seven months, which is already quite remarkable.

At the same time, at the other end of the locker room, Kaka also lowered his head.

The lack of outstanding performance in the first half was not just a glory. Kaka was also closely marked by the opponent-he had performed well in four consecutive games. If he didn't know how to guard against him, San Caetano's players should die.

Under the opponent's defense, Kaka has little room to play today.

Kaka was very unwilling, and he wanted to throw Rong Guang away completely in one go.

From the looks of it now, that is to maintain the existing gap...

Kaka always felt that this was not safe, even if he scored in four consecutive games, and Rong Guang fell into a scoring drought in three consecutive games, he also felt that it was not safe.

It seemed that what was chasing him was not an ordinary rookie, but a ferocious lion.

※※※

"The game started in the second half...Osvaldo didn't make any adjustments to the lineup. It seems that he is very confident in his starting lineup..." Caffery said, looking at the Sao Paulo players on the field.

He saw the glory in it.

The rookie was not replaced at halftime.

Osvaldo was just... stubborn.

That's what Caffery didn't say.

※※※

From the beginning of the second half of the game, Rong Guang was full of "long shots".

He paid attention to the opponent's defender during the game and found that when he got the ball, as long as he did not make a vertical breakthrough, San Caetano's defender would not pay special attention to himself.

Their more attention is on Kaka.

This is my chance, if I don't take the ball to break through, but shoot directly from a long distance...by surprise!
Rong Guang thought of this and raised his hand to ask for the ball.

If possible, Sao Paulo players are more willing to pass football to Kaka and Fabiano, because these two people in the trident are more trustworthy.But most of the time, I'm afraid it's just mediocrity.He confuses his opponents and confuses his teammates.

When football is passed to Rongguang's feet, it means that the risks are doubled.

But now it seems that apart from giving football glory, there is no good way.

Fabiano was up front, surrounded by San Caetano's defenders.

Kaka was surrounded by layers of San Caetano.

Only Rong Guang's defense was a little looser.

So Ricardinho passed football to Rongguang.

Rongguang adjusted his orientation before receiving the ball. When the football rolled over, he happened to be facing San Caetano's goal.

Visually, it is now about 30 meters away from the goal.

Without any hesitation, Rong Guang took a long shot!
Bang!
Not surprisingly, the football hit the stands at the back of the pitch.

"This idiot!" Renaldo couldn't help cursing on the bench.

"Rong unexpectedly chose a long-range shot! Of course, the quality of this long-range shot can also be imagined... Sao Paulo's attack was ended by Rong Guang's anti-aircraft gun..." Ka Furui was still polite.

"The rookie is doing nonsense again. Although Rong occasionally has amazing works, but more of them are nonsense... No one knows what is going on in this rookie's mind. It is meaningless to let him squander an offensive opportunity of Sao Paulo just like this..." Bueno said even more venomously. "Maybe it's self-defeating? Seeing that I didn't have any good performance in the three games, I became impatient...but impatience can't solve any problems.

After seeing this long shot, Sun Fengyang in front of the TV straightened up and stared at Rong Guang on the screen more and more intently.
