Chapter 358

Porto formed a new starting line-up after the Champions League quarter final.

Defence: Rolando and sapluna in the centre back, sissokho and fusile in the full back. Midfield: meleres and Fernando partner at the back, Gao Xiaodong plays at the front when attacking, defends back to the front of the back, the position is very flexible, forward: Falcao, the best shooter, plays the center, hulk and Rodriguez play two flanks.

This lineup is very effective. The only drawback is that the two centre backs are too young and lack of experience. However, they are protected by two back midfielders Fernando and meleres. As long as they don't meet a strong team, they are generally difficult to break through.

After Porto is nervous, it is very difficult for Benfica's Cardoso, DiMaria, Aimar and Reyes to play with ease.

In particular, the withdrawal of hulk and Rodriguez has brought great difficulties to Benfica's two side attacks.

Hulk is strong but not slow, Rodriguez is fast, even if the two men's defensive skills are not so good, once they are entangled, the full back and the middle players of the supplementary defense will pinch again, the ball will not be easy to pass out again.

In the 25th minute of the game, Aimar broke away from Porto's pressing in the middle of the road, and then suddenly gave a side to DiMaria.

DiMaria's two consecutive stops and starts on the flank angered Hulk, who came back after him. Hulk kicked him over when DiMaria started to cut inside again.

The referee showed Hulk a yellow card.

DiMaria is quick to serve the free kick to Aimar who wants the ball.

The nicknamed clown emmar joined the eagles last summer, following the Spanish coach Flores who coached him in Valencia. He was also given the important task of the front waist. However, because of the influence of injury, emmar has participated in less than 10 league matches, so Benfica's performance has been greatly affected.

Aimar set the ball up, ready to go from the rib to the penalty area.

This is the combination of the full back and the centre back, because just Hulk fouled, the distance between the full back and the centre back did not keep good, leaving a big gap.

However, Aimar just came to the front of the penalty area,

GAO Xiaodong suddenly retreated deep, snatched Aimar from the back of the side like lightning, and knocked Aimar into the penalty area.

"Good! Porto 10 robbed Benfica 10

"The clown is so pitiful. He was knocked off."

"Gao Xiaodong's figure can almost hold Aimar, and his body is too weak."

……

Aimar has rich experience. After he fell to the ground, he took advantage of Gao Xiaodong's turn and kicked Gao Xiaodong's ankle with a hook to delay Porto's counterattack with a foul.

But Gao Xiaodong's footwork is very solid, Aimar didn't kick Gao Xiaodong this time.

It's definitely not easy to rush out of his own restricted area. Gao Xiaodong is very alert to pass the ball to meileles, and he runs quickly to get the ball.

Meileles's passing consciousness is better than Fernando and Hulk. When he catches the ball, he sees Gao Xiaodong raise his hand and run. He directly makes a wall coordination for Gao Xiaodong and passes the ball to Gao Xiaodong's running line.

Di Maria judged the cooperation line between meileles and Gao Xiaodong, and quickly snatched from the side.

Gao Xiaodong dashed straight ahead, smashed DiMaria off and went on.

Hulk saw the extremely fast dimariah fell down and was very happy. He ran quickly along the side road. Although Gao Xiaodong still has space for dribbling in front of him, he didn't stick to the ball. After he was promoted to B-level player, Gao Xiaodong's handling of the ball was more reasonable. He launched a penetrating pass through the arch of his foot and gave it to Hulk accurately.

Hulk high-speed dribble to the side of the penalty area, in the face of the side back full back, Hulk did not bottomed, but lateral dribble.

Hulk's left foot shot power is very big, Benfica dare not let him go, the centre back quickly come to block.

Porto striker Falcao predicted ahead of time that Benfica's centre back would block it, and he ran to the ribs with the centre back for the first time.

Hulk reacted quickly and immediately passed the ball to the ribs.

This is a very tacit cooperation of running and passing. Benfica's other centre back slowed down a step, and Falcao finished shooting. He turned around and shot through Benfica goalkeeper quem's ten fingers.

1: 1

Porto leveled the score with a quick counterattack.

"Beautiful

"This counterattack is beautiful!"

The Porto fans in the stands cheered excitedly.

The commentator was also excited by the sharp counterattack, "it's so fast, just four legged pass, Gao Xiaodong and Meles wall style cooperation, Gao Xiaodong pass hulke, hulke pass Falcao, the ball went in, Benfica didn't even touch the ball..."

"What a beautiful pass!" After Falcao scored, he ran over and hugged Hulk.

Falcao and Hulk were rivals in attack, but when they scored such a beautiful goal, both the passers and the scorers were very happy. They had a heart to heart feeling in an instant."It's Gao's first pass."

Hu Erke did not forget Gao Xiaodong. He and Falcao ran to embrace Gao Xiaodong.

With a smile, Gao Xiaodong stretched out his arms to embrace hulke and Falcao and praised them: "beautiful! It's a beautiful pass! If you work together like this, we can have a fight with Manchester United

"It's better for the captain to pass." Hulk and Falcao said almost in unison.

A 19-year-old boy praised two 23-year-old youths like this, but the two older youths looked happy. Outsiders must feel strange and a little disobedient. However, Gao Xiaodong is now the team leader and a popular candidate for the golden boy in Europe. His fame and status are much bigger than those of Falcao and hulke. Falcao and hulke are not aware of anything wrong, but they are worried I'm very happy. I seem to be recognized by my elders.

Benfica coach Flores on the sidelines saw this simple and smooth counterattack, full of envy and hatred.

In Valencia, he is relying on such a counterattack against Barcelona Real Madrid, dominate La Liga.

When he came to Benfica, he also wanted to develop such a defensive counterattack, which led to the purchase of Aimar and Reyes. However, Aimar was plagued by injury, and DiMaria's ability was not inferior to Vicente's, but he was too independent. Sometimes the counterattack was sharp and sometimes tardy, which made him extremely painful.

Ferreira is very happy. This is his dream cooperation. He didn't expect to play in a Carling Cup final. He rushed to the side of the court and said to Gao Xiaodong, hulk and Falcao, who were gathered together to celebrate: "that's it! More cooperation! More passes

After the score equalised, Porto became braver and braver, gradually burning the flames of war to Benfica's half court. Hulk and Rodriguez, who had originally withdrawn from defense, also went up to press for high position in the front court, not allowing Benfica's two full backs to assist.

In the last minute of the first half, Gao Xiaodong received a direct pass from Fernando in the middle of the road, and he went into Benfica's 30 meter area at high speed.

Hulk quickly ran to the baseline, Falcao from the center position to the rib.

Gao Xiaodong slows down and takes a look at hulke on the right. It seems that he is going to pass the right, and let hulke and Falcao attack on the right.

Benfica's defence reacted ahead of time and moved to their left.

Gao Xiaodong suddenly moved the ball to Benfica's right side, threw away the players who followed the defense and shot vigorously.

Recently, no matter in the league or the cup, Gao Xiaodong is more of a passing organization. Many people forget his terrible long-range shot. When Gao Xiaodong shoots, everyone realizes that it is extremely dangerous for Gao Xiaodong to shoot casually in the 30 meter area.

Gao Xiaodong's shot is very powerful, and he is flying on the grass. Goalkeeper quem has moved to his left to prevent Falcao from catching the ball and shooting. When Gao Xiaodong shoots, he is flying to save, so he is slow.

The ball flew past quim's fingertips and slammed into the net.

2: 1

GAO Xiaodong's long-range shot at 25 meters gave Porto an advantage.

The crowd cheered: champion! Champion! We want the champion!
