[football] walk side by side

"Cyril, take it easy. Although the opponent is Barcelona, ​​the opponent has not sent a full lineup. Don't put too much pressure on it." Seeing Cyril staring in the direction of Barcelona for a long time, Del Rey thought that Cyril This is nervous. When passing by Cyril, he comforted in a low voice: "If you don't trust those little guys from the second team, just pass the ball to me."

"That can't be done," Cyril knew that Delray had misunderstood, and he responded in a joking tone: "This is an opportunity for the second team to be named by the master, and I will pass it to you. What if the master finds fault with me?"

While joking, players from both sides began to line up to play.

Mourinho did not make any special arrangements for this game before the game, he just told the players to do what they should do.This is not surprising. By this time, the rosters of both sides are no longer a secret, and half of the names on the roster that are not well-known have already doomed the "practice" nature of this game.

Considering the possibility of encountering Barcelona in the European Champions Cup, as well as his own understanding of Barcelona, ​​Mourinho certainly has a lot of research on Barcelona, ​​but his research is basically Barcelona's current first-team main force and their substitutes don't know anything about the La Masia players sent by the opponent this time.

In the same way, for Barcelona, ​​Porto at this time is the same.

In this practice match, Mourinho sent only four first-team players, one in frontcourt Del Rey, one in midfielder Cyril, and then Jorge Costa and the goalkeeper in defense Baia on location.

Except for these four players, the other seven players were all temporarily drawn by Mourinho from the second-tier team.

The lack of intelligence made the players on both sides play very cautiously in the first period of time, and every attack was built on a sufficiently solid line of defense.However, this situation did not last long. The two sides quickly ended their simple probing behavior and started a real attack.

Porto has the advantage of occupying the home field, and considering the morale of the players, they naturally chose to attack. Although Barcelona is playing away, they still have the arrogance of the La Liga giants. Naturally, they will not use defensive counterattacks at the beginning of the game. style of play.

Because of this, although neither side has sent a real main force, the game is still enjoyable as a whole thanks to the back-and-forth offense of both sides.

No. In the 201st minute, Cyril launched an attack, but he did not choose to pass the ball to initiate this attack in the midfield. The reason is simple. Although both sides of the game are mainly young players, Lama The players from West Asia Academy and the Porto Youth Academy are obviously not at the same level at all. This can be seen from the Barcelona team called Leo Messi breaking through Porto's defense many times.

At this moment, the reliable captain Jorge Costa is still not coming up on the defensive line-Leo Messi's repeated attacks made Porto's young defenders look a little pale, and Costa had to Dwelling in the defense, bear the defensive pressure for the youth team players.

And Delray... Cyril thought blankly, I'll just pass the ball to you when I agreed!Senior, you run so fast, how can I pass it on!

Adhering to the spirit that I can do it myself if my teammates can't be relied on, Cyril didn't pass the ball to anyone, and went straight forward with the ball!

When he passed the field quickly, the first player who ran to try to break the football under his feet was the player named Leo Messi. Cyril knew that the Barcelona striker was very fast. In the previous situation, he was sure to get rid of him, but in the situation where the two were facing each other, it was more beneficial for Messi to catch up with him.

If you can't eat by speed, you can only rely on outsmart.

Through the observation of the first 10 minutes, it can be seen that this is a player with superb skills and outstanding awareness. Drill left and right on the road.

But this does not mean that Leo Messi can stop Cyril.

After all, being able to attack and being able to defend are two different things, and stealing the ball is more of a defender's job.If Cyril is facing a full-time defender, he may still hesitate to take the ball or pass the ball to create opportunities for his teammates, but facing a forward who is up for grabs?

Cyril squinted his eyes and made a fake move to break to the left. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Messi was not deceived by this move. Cyril immediately shifted his focus, turned the fake into real and passed Messi directly.

Cyril didn't stop after completing this surreptitious, he kept moving on his feet, and continued to rush forward. At this time, even if Messi wanted to turn around and chase, it was too late in terms of speed.

At this moment Cyril still had no intention of passing the ball to anyone. He carried the ball across the Barcelona midfield, including Francisco Fabregas who had caught his attention before the game. This defensive midfielder also has a good overall view and foot skills, but unlike Cyril, who focuses on organization, Fabregas focuses more on offense, and is in charge of Barcelona's organization and scheduling. Barcelona midfielder.

Cyril doesn't quite understand why Cesc Fabregas is in the same position as himself, but works as an attacking midfielder. In his opinion, the front midfielder is the most suitable position for an attacking midfielder, and the midfielder has a better vision. It is suitable for organizing the offense of the whole team, and this La Masia player obviously also has a very good overall view, which is perfect for organizing and scheduling.

But if you don't know what you don't understand, the tense game on the court didn't give Cyril much chance to lose his mind, and he wouldn't be so stupid as to remind his opponent of something on the court.Before another Barcelona defender approached him, Cyril didn't stick to the ball any more. His eyes swept forward, and then he passed the ball accurately to Del Rey's feet on the right.

Delray, who showed his prowess in the Portuguese Super League last season, is one of the few people who is not proud and complacent in the new season. The Porto striker's sense of smell in front of the goal is as accurate as ever. Facing this pass from Cyril , he adjusted the shooting angle, raised his foot and volleyed!

The ball crashed into the net!

"The goal is scored! Porto's 'Brazilian Ninja' Del Rey scored the goal, and Cyril Slade assisted him. Porto opened the scoring and led Barcelona 1-0!"

There was a burst of cheers at the Dragon Stadium.

Although Barcelona did not send their own main players, but our Porto does not have one, so our young players are more powerful!The Porto fans thought happily, while happily looking forward to the next game.

As everyone knows, their beloved head coach is frowning at this moment.

"Huh? We can see on the big screen that Porto's coach, Mr. Jose Mourinho, is frowning. It seems that he is not happy with this goal. Why? A goal can't make him Satisfied? Maybe the Porto coach wants his disciples to have another one?"

In fact, Cyril's face is not very good at the moment.

It's not that he's dissatisfied with himself or Delray, but he's dissatisfied with the new second-team players.Leaving aside Jorge Costa, the young defenders who have been stunned by Leo Messi's high-speed change of direction, even the striker in the front field makes Cyril very worried, and the attacking idea is so simple The Barcelona defender saw through at a glance.Not to mention the players who partnered with Cyril in the midfield, this young man seems to be trying to play the job that Cyril played in the first team, which is to assist Cyril in organizing scheduling.

But in this game where neither side is serious, Cyril doesn't need others to help him organize it!

This also led to the fact that the young man may have the idea of ​​helping Cyril, but the help he thought was actually causing trouble for Cyril. The assistance organization he thought was equivalent to interrupting him in Cyril's eyes. rhythm.

It is precisely because he has a panoramic view of all this that Cyril understands what Mourinho is dissatisfied with.

Cyril exhaled and turned to look at the bench.

On the bench at this time, the main players of Porto's first team are naturally sitting. Except for a few players who have a decent attitude like Deco, more heroes of last season have completely shown some bad signs. They talked and laughed on the bench, leisurely.

What is there to be proud of?

What is Mourinho's mentality of suddenly transferring the second team? Of course, these old fritters who have been in the league for many years are not fools.

In this way, Mourinho will still have to rely on them as long as he wants to win this season's glory.

Cyril doesn't have as many complicated thoughts as Mourinho, he is simply upset with the lazy behavior of these players!Everyone knows that the so-called Triple Crown is nothing more than the Portuguese media themselves calling it nice. The real Triple Crown is the addition of the Champions Cup, not the UEFA Cup!

Is it difficult to win the small triple crown?For a giant like Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​and Bayern, even if they are given three championships like them, their players will not feel the slightest joy!

Obviously they haven't really achieved any great results, but their self-satisfaction has stagnated. Is it true that the team can't do without you?

Cyril didn't look at the bench anymore, he turned around calmly, and ran to his seat, with a faintly cold smile on his lips.

That's right, these immature second-team players can't shake your main position, so... what about me? !
