Chapter 102
Although Nuno Gomez was "robbed" by Diego in various unconventional ways, Braga's counterattack efficiency in this game was extremely low.

Joao Thomas in the frontcourt is really in poor condition. In many cases, he can't even take the first penalty kick. Even if he gets the first penalty kick, the ball will soon be taken back by Benfica's defenders.

Of course, to some extent, there are also reasons why Joao Thomas is alone in the frontcourt.

Benfica's defense doesn't need to worry about anyone else - when Braga counterattacks, just strangle Joao Thomas.

However, because Nuno Gomez was tricked by Diego, Benfica's goal has been breached and it still has not been able to organize an effective offensive.

Until the 38th minute of the game, the score was still 0-1!

Benfica fans at the Stadium of Light were quite dissatisfied, and all kinds of abuse continued.

"Refund! Refund! What kind of shit ball is this kicking!?"

"Nuno Gomez, retire! Don't embarrass yourself here!"

"Manduka is a softie! He can't even hold the ball in the frontcourt! The Flying Eagles need a big center who can hold the ball!"

"Ronald Koeman fired! We don't need a Dutch coach!"

……

In the end, the fans unanimously unified the slogan of defecting to the home team as "Ronald Koeman dismissed!!!".

Ever since, the sound of the Stadium of Light's defection was like thunder, shaking everyone's eardrums on the field.

"Ronald Koeman dismissed!!!"

"Ronald Koeman dismissed!!!"

"Ronald Koeman go back to Holland!!!"

……

Being so betrayed by the fans, Ronald Koeman standing on the sidelines turned purple with anger.

You know, the top executives of the club are all watching the match.

At this moment, whether it is the score on the field or the "public opinion" of the fans, they have pushed themselves to the edge of getting out of class-maybe, during the intermission, I will receive a letter from the club at the door of the home team's locker room. Dismissal letter?
However, there are still 5 minutes before the intermission!
The proud Dutchman feels that he still has time to save himself!
"Nuno Gomez, go forward to the frontcourt! Stop participating in the organization! Manuel Fernandez, press up! Press up! You don't need so many people in the backcourt! Petit's participation in defense is enough!"

Ronald Koeman began to change the tactics on the field more radically. He danced and directed the players' positions on the field: "Leonardo Bastos, the work of organizing is entrusted to you!"

"Goal! In the first half of the game, equalize the score!"

Nuno Gomez and Manuel Fernandez know very well that if they don't give it a try, Braga will only become more and more defensive.

Without any hesitation, Nuno Gomez and Manuel Fernandez went straight forward to Braga's frontcourt, even standing parallel to Gustavo Manduca in the frontcourt.

"Is it such an extreme way of kicking?"

In this regard, Diego couldn't help but frown—if he followed Nuno Gomez to the frontcourt, he would probably destroy his own defensive formation.

But Diego received a death order: Nuno Gomez will follow wherever he goes, even if he goes to the toilet to open the door, he must stand guard in front of the door, even if he goes to the men's hospital to cut his skin, he must be at the door of the operating room Keep an eye on him and never lose him!

Therefore, Diego just hesitated for a while, and then hurriedly followed Nuno Gomez to his backcourt.

After Nuno Gomez and Manuel Fernandez advanced to the front of Braga's penalty area, and Diego also returned to the backcourt to defend, the front of Braga's penalty area was full of people, and mahjong could be played Go to three tables.

After confirming that the teammates in the frontcourt were all standing still, Leonardo Bastos in the midfield did not hesitate and went straight to the frontcourt.

That's right!

It's just such a slap in the face.

It just doesn't fit what Ronald Koeman calls "the attacking aesthetics of Dutch football".

At this moment, Ronald Koeman realized how important it is to have a big center in the frontcourt!

You know, when I was coaching at Ajax, there was a Swedish genius Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the frontcourt who was over 190 centimeters tall. Hang the ball above Ibrahimovic's head, and Ibrahimovic can make a fierce operation to help him break the deadlock.

Are you all right now?
I was stubborn not to bring in a big center, which resulted in the frontcourt being full of "little fast spirits", and even the bench didn't have a decent big man, and even Manuel Fernandez, who played a defensive midfielder, could only go up to meet the header. up!

However, Ronald Koeman can no longer worry so much.

I can't dismiss get out of class at this moment!
The quarter-finals of the Champions League will be held in 3 days, and Benfica will go to the away game against Barcelona in the first leg.

Since Ronaldinho has confirmed to miss the first round due to injury, Ronald Koeman is sure that his team has every chance to take the lead against the powerful Barcelona.

As long as the away game can score an away goal, then returning to the Stadium of Light in the second round will not be a problem!
Even Ronald Koeman feels that the Champions League final is beckoning to him, and he will take Benfica to defeat his opponent at the Stade de France in Paris, France, and become the champion of the Champions League!Achieve the myth of the second UEFA Champions League champion in the Portuguese Super League in the 21st century!
(PS: The 2005-2006 UEFA Champions League final was Barcelona against Arsenal, and Barcelona defeated Arsenal 2-1 to reach the top.)
and so!
I must not give up my achievement of reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League this season to other coaches!

Absolutely not!

"Press up! Stop watching the show on the wing, let me press you into the penalty area!"

Ronald Koeman even slapped the two wingers Lauren Robert and Simao to stop cruising on the wing, but asked them to pile up together in Braga's big penalty area to respond to the second attack.

With Leonardo Bastos' continuous long pass in the midfield, although Benfica's frontcourt is not used to such an offensive routine, at least they have found an offensive momentum, and Braga's defense has begun to loosen .

Because Nuno Gomez gave up his organization and went forward into his own penalty area, which brought Diego to the backcourt, causing Braga's defense to become chaotic-the defensive players had never run in with Diego at all. Defensive positioning, which caused Diego to reposition with his teammates many times.

Jesualdo Ferreira watched the back line have problems, and he couldn't continue to sit on the coaching bench.

The old man walked to the sidelines and looked at the big screen.

It is already the 43rd minute of the first half. Including injury time, there is still about 3-4 minutes of game time!
At this moment, there is no way to direct the defensive position of the defense line. Jesualdo Ferreira can only pray that the players can withstand the last time of the first half and bring the one-goal advantage back to the locker room before making adjustments.

(PS: Lao Mouzi finally came out! Huh... Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, the third watch will continue! Everyone recommend Lao Mouzi more, thank you! o(∩_∩)o The layout was messed up just now, and it has been adjusted , sorry!~)
