I Want to Be the King of Football

On February 8, in the twenty-first round of the Portuguese Super League, Sporting Lisbon faced Braga at home.

Su Dong, who has been in red recently, once again showed an incredible performance.

After nearly an hour of fierce competition between the two sides, Braga's back line finally revealed flaws.

In the 54th minute, in a quick counterattack, Su Dong took Tonito's straight pass, used his speed to forcibly break through the opponent's defense line, kicked his foot in the penalty area and hit the goal, opening the scoring for Sporting Lisbon.

Just six minutes later, with the cooperation from the left, Rui Jorge knocked Ronnie back and made a forty-five-degree oblique pass to the penalty area. Su Dong took the lead in grabbing the best landing spot and overwhelmed his opponent. He hit the goal with a header. A brace.

Two to zero!

Sporting Lisbon finally beat Braga with two goals thanks to Su Dong's goal.

With a hat-trick in the last round, this round scored twice and scored five goals in two rounds. Su Dong's performance not only shocked the entire Portuguese football world, but even European football began to pay close attention to this young man. Chinese teenager.

The Spanish Marca newspaper reported after the game, saying that this Ronaldo fan has begun to enter the field of vision of Real Madrid's technical team. With the impressive record of scoring nine goals in six games since the winter break, he is only 18 years old. The year-old Sudong made Jardel completely forgotten by Sporting Lisbon fans.

Such crazy goals are comparable to Jardel last season!

But don't forget, Su Dong is only eighteen years old!

Gazzetta dello Sport also broke the news that AC Milan's technical team paid close attention to Su Dong's movements after receiving Albertini's recommendation.

Although Ancelotti emphasized that the team has no shortage of strikers, Galliani still targets two young players for summer transfer signings, namely the talented teenager Kaka from Brazil, And Sudong from Sporting Lisbon.

These two young players are more of the team's talent reserve for the future.

Turin Sports Daily revealed that Juventus is also paying close attention to the two rookies of Sporting Lisbon, center Sudong and winger Cristiano Ronaldo.

Lippi is more interested in Su Dong. He has told the technical team that a center like Su Dong will bring great improvement to the team. He hopes the team can seriously consider bringing him to Turin.

However, Turin Sports Daily also revealed that the Juventus management is not only interested in Su Dong, but also Ajax's Swedish center Ibrahimovic, who is the same as the team's core Nedvi. Germany is the same agent, both Raiola from Italy.

Obviously Raiola is closer to Juventus.

The World Sports News from Catalonia, Spain, revealed that Barcelona has a strong interest in the three young players of Sporting Lisbon, but this is a sequence.

Kluivert's career in Barcelona was not successful, which made many people worry about whether Sudong, a center who plays very much like Kluivert, can adapt to Barcelona?

In the team's signing order, the first choice for strikers is Eto'o. Only when the introduction of Eto'o fails, Barcelona will consider whether to introduce Sudong.

Quaresma and Ronny are also Barcelona's targets, but this summer happens to be Barcelona's presidential election, and one of the candidates, Laporta, has come up with campaign cards like Ronaldinho and Beckham, This makes the three young players Sudong, Quaresma and Ronnie simply not enough to watch.

Barcelona's technical team believes that they do not have the strength to play for Barca for the time being.

…………

…………

The transfer market is chaotic, but Su Dong has no time to pay attention.

After the 21st round, take a week off, and immediately usher in the 22nd round.

This time, Su Dong was put on the bench.

Because the first round of the UEFA Cup round of 16 knockout rounds will be ushered in midweek.

In the away game against Vazim, Joao Pinto opened the scoring in the 34th minute.

This made everyone seem to see victory.

But in the 58th minute of the second half, Sergio Carvalho used a corner kick to equalise for Vazim.

Then the game was completely deadlocked.

Boloni replaced Sa Pinto in the 55th minute and Quaresma in the 71st minute, but neither could turn the game around.

Until the 80th minute, Boloni finally couldn't sit still, replaced Barbosa with Su Dong, and adopted a double center tactic.

Wazim seemed to have been prepared for a long time. He replaced two players in a row, a midfielder and a defender, all strengthening defense.

Head coach Jose Costa clearly has a strategy in place.

Before the game, his team focused on how to restrain Su Dong.

Actual effect...

...

Sporting Lisbon's backcourt steal.

Albertini successfully tackled the ball and passed it to the left to Rui Jorge.

The left-back has the ball.

Su Dong retreated all the way to near the midline and raised his hand for the ball.

Behind him is the Brazilian midfielder Gilma, who has been trying to squeeze Su Dong away with his body, but found that Su Dong in front was motionless.

When Rui Jorge passed the ball over, Su Dong pressed Gilma firmly with his body, stretched out his right foot, and volleyed the pass to his right back with his heel.

After unloading the ball, Su Dong suddenly turned to his right side, that is, the left side of the court.

Gilma was firmly suppressed by Su Dong in the middle and could not stop him at all.

Nice heel stop!

Su Dong turned around!!!

The startup speed is very fast, throwing off Gilma!

As soon as Su Dong exerted force on his legs, the whole person moved like a rabbit, quickly shook off Brazil's lower back, and chased the ball away.

But at this time, Wazim's back line was still there, and there was no chaos.

After Su Dong turned around, he strode all the way to meteors, sprinted along with pieces, leaned diagonally to the middle, pressed the defense line, and did not give the opponent any chance to breathe.

When he came to the middle, the opponent's defense had retreated to the front of the penalty area.

At this time, Quaresma has also followed.

Su Dong sent an oblique pass behind him and sent the ball to the top of the arc.

Quaresma moved forward at the fastest speed, just kicked the ball into the penalty area, and knocked it horizontally to the back point.

The goalkeeper stood on the right side, and the left half of the goal was empty, and he had been in ambush. Sa Pinto, who was waiting for an opportunity, caught up at this time and easily pushed in front of the goal.

The ball is in!!!!

Goal from Sa Pinto!

Two to one!

Sa Pinto rushed off the pitch in excitement, followed by Sudong and Quaresma, hugging the former star on the sidelines and congratulating him on the goal.

Other Sporting Lisbon players rushed over one by one to celebrate the team's goal.

Sudong's heel stop is very crucial, and his subsequent turn and dribbling forward completely disrupted Wazim's defense and created opportunities for Quaresma and Sa Pinto.

That's what Sudong does, and that's what other Sporting Lisbon players don't have.

Although he didn't score, he was still a key player in breaking the deadlock on the field.

...

In the end, with goals from Joao Pinto and Sa Pinto, Sporting Lisbon beat Wazim 2-1 away.

But the real surprise came after the game.

When the game was over, Sporting Lisbon received a message from the remote island of Madeira.

In the expedition to Maritimo, Porto finally showed a decline.

The goal was conceded in the opening seventeen minutes. Although Delray equalized the score at one point in the second half, only four minutes later, Maridimo overtook the score again, and the score remained 2-1 until the end of the game.

Porto got another defeat.

As a result, after 22 rounds of games, Porto continued to lead the Portuguese Super League standings with 54 points.

But behind them, Sporting Lisbon ranked second with 53 points with this wave of consecutive victories since the winter break.

From being seven points behind at the beginning to only one point chasing now, Sporting Lisbon seems to have seen hope of a reversal.

Benfica ranked third with 47 points, followed by Guimaraes with 39 points.

It can be said that the current situation in the Portuguese Super League is very clear. Porto and Sporting Lisbon are the most powerful battle for the championship. Benfica basically loses hope of winning the championship.

And this round of losses has shortened the team's lead to one point, and Porto's situation is in jeopardy.

Head coach Mourinho said publicly after the game that he was satisfied with the team's game in Madeira and believed that the players' performance basically met his requirements.

In the middle of the week, we need to play the UEFA Cup well, so we need to have a proper rotation. No team can keep playing at the highest level during the rotation, which is unrealistic.

Mourinho is full of confidence in Porto, that even if they are chased by a point, but we are still in the lead.

The Portuguese coach said that Porto will work hard to play all the remaining games, and he believes that it is impossible for Sporting Lisbon to keep making mistakes.

Wait and see, they will also usher in a two-front battle.

Mourinho's words actually make a lot of sense, so Sporting Lisbon remains calm and rational about it.

In an interview with the media after the game, Su Dong said, The team is in good shape now and its performance is very stable, but the real test is to fight on two fronts, but we have the confidence to play every game well.

We will definitely reverse Porto in the standings!

Su Dong's powerful words received support from his teammates.

Ronnie, who was also interviewed by the media, was very sure, We will successfully defend the Portuguese Super League champion!

But Porto's players also expressed optimism that the team will defend the top spot.

Don't forget, the final round of the league is our matchup with Sporting Lisbon, and the game is played at our home court! Carvalho vowed to swear.

The implication is obvious, even if the stalemate is really deadlocked and the two teams are inseparable, Porto will definitely defeat Sporting Lisbon to win the final round of home games.

The main midfielder Deco admitted that Sporting Lisbon is a tough opponent, but we will definitely have the last laugh.

Entering a two-line battle, or even a three-line battle, for any team, it is not just a contest of physical fitness and technical and tactical levels. We are more mature than Sporting Lisbon.

Most of the comments from the outside world agree with Deco's views.

After entering a two-line battle, or even a three-line battle, it will be difficult for Sporting Lisbon to maintain the state since the winter break.
