[Football] Crown of Thorns

On February 2015, 2, Liverpool ushered in the opponent of the first round of the Champions League quarter-finals, the Portuguese Porto Club.

After the UEFA Champions League group stage, the results of the UEFA Champions League round of 16 draw were hot. Liverpool drew last season's Portuguese Super League champion Porto.

The contest between Porto, which won the Champions League under Mourinho, and Liverpool, a veteran giant, has made many people put this game on the point of focus.

"Hehe, we will definitely win."

Gama clenched his fist.

Seeing his grinning posture, Furtado rolled his eyes, "Don't bring personal grievances to the game!"

Other teammates: ? ?

Tommy poked his head over, "What?"

Furtado curled his lips, "Boavista and Porto, where Chico used to be, are in the same city derby."

"Oh sworn enemy!"

After mentioning it this way, everyone will understand.

Everyone has played Derby, so it is easy to understand Gama's attitude.

"But Xiko..."

Joe Allen turned around and asked.

Furtado shrugged, "Not only did Chico play in the league in Boavista, he himself came from the Panthers youth training!"

Oh, generally, the players trained by youth training in this way are even more loyal among the diehards. No wonder they are so hostile to Porto today.

Of course, Gama, who heard Furtado's popular science about his background, didn't comment on it, but just pointed at Furtado.

As for whether Jia Ma is a diehard or something, spread your hands, who knows!

Before waiting for the game, one of the ways for players to relax is to gossip, and the Red Army is no exception.

"Speaking of which, Porto's coach, Mr. Lupetegui, was also a member of the Spanish national team before!"

Gerrard, known as an "encyclopedia" within the team, also talked with his teammates with great interest.

"Many coaches have played football!"

Lucas agreed.

"Having said that, there are not many players who have played for Real Madrid and Barcelona at the same time."

Gerald laughed.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Lupetegui is really powerful," Joe Allen asked curiously, "What position did he play before?"

"He's a goalkeeper," Gerrard said. "Before he was the coach of the Spanish U21 national team. This season, he moved to the Portuguese Super League to take over Porto."

"In any case, his ability to lead the team to the knockout round is pretty good."

Listening to his teammates chatting, Jia Ma heard his cell phone ringing, took it out and saw that his captain had sent him another text message.

Tsk, the captain is really a loyal fan of the social network!

Open the text message and see, Gama: (-__-)b

A certain captain: I look forward to your performance and win the game.

Captain, if you can't speak, don't say it. If I didn't know who you are, I would want to beat you.

Speechless, Jia Ma tapped the key - can you take care of the captain? @Mr.

At this time, a certain gentleman who was also preparing to play in the Champions League in Schalke, Germany, looked up at a certain captain, and was a little speechless.

Mr. A: He wants to encourage you and let you work hard.

Gama: I know, but can you talk nicely? ┳＿┳

Mr. A: You understand him, don't you? ^_^

Gama: ┳＿┳

…………

I feel like I've been bullied, and I'm so tired.

Jia Ma put down the phone, let's focus on the opponent!

After digging up the opponent's information, Gama took a closer look and found that the Porto team still has his teammates from the national team. However, judging from the coaching staff's explanation, they should focus on Porto's striker, Jackson, the striker from Colombia. - Martinez, who has scored 21 goals in 17 games this season, the 28-year-old striker deserves their attention.

Gama licked his teeth...Sorry, he felt his teeth were a bit uncomfortable.

Furtado, who was sitting beside him, glanced at him, "What's wrong?"

Jia Ma was a little distressed, "The teeth are uncomfortable."

"Look up, open your mouth, let me see."

Furtado turned around, raised Gama's chin, and looked left and right at the light, "It seems that your teeth are a bit dark..."

Gerald on the opposite side, "What's wrong with Hiko?"

"His teeth look like..."

Furtado looked up and down, "You have eaten too much sweets!"

"fart!"

Jia Ma slapped Furtado's paw, "I've never eaten sweets at all."

"Who said, you ate biscuits before!"

Furtado unceremoniously lifted Gama's bottom.

Gama, who had been praised by the coaching staff as a role model for the players before - no drinking, no smoking, no clubbing, only eating nutritious meals - won the onlookers of the whole team... his teeth! ! !

Gama, who was blown out of anger, jumped up, grabbed Furtado and beat him, "You talk too much nonsense, I'm going to kill you!!!"

There was a commotion in the lounge, and it wasn't until the coach Rodgers came in that everyone's commotion ended.

However, Gerrard still told the coach about the problem with Gama's teeth.

Although the teeth are only a small problem, sometimes small problems can lead to big problems, not to mention that professional players like them sometimes have to pay attention to the point of being almost "abnormal" in terms of body management, especially the possibility of using medicine. It is even more important.

"Sir, I'll see the dentist tomorrow, and I'll be fine for tonight's game."

Gama pushed the top teeth with the tip of his tongue, and then said this to Rogers.

"really?"

"of course."

Jia Ma licked the space between his teeth again, MD felt a little numb, but in fact there was no problem before noon.

"Okay, if you have any questions, tell them earlier."

Although Orientals often say that 'toothache is not a disease', Europeans are very fond of teeth, and this is also a must-check item in the physical examination. Gama did not have any problems in this aspect in the previous examination.

So Rogers is also quite relieved, "About today's game, let me emphasize again, don't be careless..."

The staff knocked on the door, "Get ready to enter."

Coming out of the locker room, I met Porto's players head-on.

Gama saw the players he was familiar with, Porto's defensive core Indi, midfielder Herrera, midfielder Brahimi and even veteran Reyes and Quaresma, hey, there are so many acquaintances.

Wait, they are quite eye-catching.

Well, speaking of pre-match betting companies ranked them 07th and 14th respectively in the odds of winning the Champions League. Tsk, Liverpool, the runner-up of last season's Champions League, didn't even rank at the top. Gama thinks this is a shame. Really bad.

Don't you think we can win the Champions League?

And judging from the comments, there are more optimistic about Porto.

Well, let's see!

Although Porto is away first and then hosts, and the Champions League knockout experience is also rich, but we will definitely be able to upgrade.

Gama hugged several familiar Portuguese players and grinned.

"It's an ugly smile."

Quaresma clicked his tongue.

Jia Ma hehe, "We've won."

"Ha ha……"

Quaresma responded with the same.

…………

The first leg of the 2014/15 UEFA Champions League 1/8 finals was played at Anfield Stadium, with Liverpool playing against Porto at home.

利物浦首发阵容(433)：22-米尼奥莱；18-莫雷诺、5-弗塔多、4-图雷、37-斯科特尔；8-杰拉德、10-达加马、24-乔阿伦；7-托雷斯、20-拉拉纳、29-博里尼。

Porto starting lineup (433): 12-Fabbiano; 2-Danilo, 4-Maicon, 5-Marcano, 26-Sandro; 16-Herrera, 6-Casemiro, 30-Olivier; 11-Tello, 9-Martinez, 8-Brahimi.

It was only when Gama walked out that he noticed that Quaresma was not starting.

Gama turned his head and watched Quaresma go to the Porto bench, put on his coat and sit down. Quaresma with a calm expression didn't seem to feel anything, but looking at him, Gama suddenly thought of the national team that year. During the training camp, he fought with his teammates... Time flies, and that unruly young man seems to have changed. After years of constant transfers and no football, Quaresma has grown and matured.

Seeming to realize that Gama was looking at him, Quaresma made a gesture to him, which was the secret signal they arranged during the national team training: forward.

Gama withdrew his eyes and focused on the front, now it's the game...

…………

"...Furtado made a long pass, Gerrard got rid of Sandro and Maicon, shovel shot!!!"

"The Reds took the lead at home, Porto launched a counterattack, ex-Barcelona player Tello dribbled the ball from the wing..."

…………

"Dagama!!!"

"GOALLLL!!!"

"The Red Army played very aggressively today. Judging from the current situation, if Porto can no longer open the offensive line, then this game is very likely to..."

"... Let's look at this one, Porto corner, Casemiro, the ex-Real Madrid midfielder headed it wide of the near corner."

"Danilo shoots from a distance..."

"Dagama took the ball, let's see this attack..."

…………

"... it's the second half of the game and it's Liverpool's ball now... oops, Tello takes a corner from Maicon's header and the ball is blocked, well, Casemiro's shot on the outside instep, the ball goes in Oh... hey, the ball was ruled invalid..."

"The Porto players are a little emotional. Let's take a look at the replay of the ball. Casemiro ejected and scored... From this point of view, it is true that some players interfered with the goalkeeper. Porto's offside players did interfere with the goalkeeper, so the goal was scored. ruled invalid..."

…………

"The whole game ended, Liverpool, who played at home, won the opponent with a score of 2-0..."

…………

…………

Hey guy!

how?

What are you looking at?

Hmm... I'm watching, the way of the champion...

What?

nothing……
