After Braga's entire team returned, he was asked by coach Yartim to go home and rest.

They only have two days to rest and have to rush to Lisbon Light Stadium as a guest to challenge Benfica!

That is not the last time they face Benfica this season, and they will also have a peak showdown with Benfica in the Portuguese League Cup final!

But Portuguese media believe that Benfica's home game against Braga is more important than anything else!

With 6 rounds left in the league, if Benfica cannot defeat Braga at home, he will be 8 points behind Benfica, who will withdraw from the championship ranks!

Braga has entered the most critical stage of the season. European games are always interspersed between the leagues. Outside the double matches in a week, they will challenge Benfica this weekend, and the next round of the league will face Porto at home!

Whether they can win the first Portugal top league championship in club history depends on how they will perform in these two strong dialogues in the next ten days!

Portuguese media have released war predictions for several days, and various commentators are analyzing the match between Benfica and Braga, and also predicting changes in the championship situation.

Tang Hong still followed the steps, but made Chen Manhong and Sun Rou nervous.

Tang Hong often turns on the TV to watch the sports station at home, which led to Sun Rou and Chen Manhong appearing in groups from Braga to cheer up the team for training or the bombing of public opinion in Portuguese media, it seemed that the two of them felt that a war had entered the most critical stage!

So Sun Rou prepared every meal for Tang Hong more carefully, while Chen Manhong massaged Tang Hong once every two days on average...

The weekend came, and on the day Braga went to Lisbon, Tang Hong came to the club at around 10 o'clock in the morning. While changing clothes in the locker room, Amorin looked at Tang Hong with a strange expression and asked, "Are you leaving?"

Tang Hong asked inexplicably: "Where am I going?"

Coustodio said in a deep voice: "This morning, the news said that many teams are interested in you, Manchester City in the UK, Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Dortmund in Germany, Leverkusen in Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain in Lyon, Atletico Madrid in Spain, Sevilla, and AC Milan in Italy."

Tang Hong frowned. It was not a secret that a team had been interested in him before. His teammates knew it, but today if the number of teams interested in him was a blowout, and any team could be Tang Hong's next home, then this would give him a feeling that this news was strange.

Because a media outlet is difficult to cover all well-known clubs in European football, they will report news that are more authentic and have more selling points. If they just speculate randomly or even fabricate them out of thin air, then there is no credibility.

At this moment, the old goalkeeper Quim said lightly: "Don't be bothered by this matter, I'll tell you the reason.

This is the media that is stanced towards the three major Portuguese Super League being disrupting our military morale!

This kind of thing is actually not uncommon. In the past season, when it was a stalemate time to compete for the championship, some media would sort out some news about player transfer intentions released at critical moments to put the target team in chaos.

It hasn't changed over the years.

No matter where Tang Hong goes, he can't go anywhere before the end of the season.

We should not be distracted by such things and focus on playing every next game!"

Everyone explained their doubts when they heard this. In fact, the reason why Barbosa was silent was because he also saw news from the media that Benfica was interested in him.

I don't want to talk about it because it really has some appeal to him.

But now it is really possible that Quim said, this is the media helping Benfica and Porto. Whether there are rumors or not, it is enough to make Braga's players think wildly!

Top clubs even have their own mouthpieces and media as weapons to attack other teams. It is impossible for the three giants of the Portuguese Super League to say that they don’t have some media comrades in their base camps. After all, the news about the three giants of the Portuguese Super League is the most marketable in Portuguese football. The three giants have more than 90% of the fans and supporters in Portugal!

Prepare for the battle with peace of mind and go out with the team.

When Braga came to Benfica's home court to warm up for Lisbon Light Stadium, fans were already present in the stands of the Light Stadium.

Benfica fans, known as the Red Devils, held up banners in the stands, and supported the team to burst out stronger combat effectiveness in the final stage of the season with their own actions!

But Benfica is really a little "weak" now!

The last round of the league failed to win and lost Aimal, who was sent off for a red card and suspended this round.

Although Barbosa is also suspended, Benfica is more affected in comparison!

In addition to the winter player transfer, Benfica's combat effectiveness has actually decreased compared to the first half of the league, which is also reflected in their ability to obtain points, otherwise Braga would not have been widened by 8 points!

6 rounds, 8 points will be chased!

This has made Benfica's league sprint in the final stage of the season unprecedentedly difficult.

Braga's sudden rise this season has had the greatest impact on Benfica on Benfica, because even if Benfica competes with Porto, he is still behind at the same time and may not be able to win the war with Porto.

But Portugal has only 1.5 UEFA Champions League places. If Benfica cannot win the runner-up, he will only play in the Europa League next season, which is the most deadly in terms of fiscal revenue and summer recruitment work!

Before the game, Benfica coach Joe Gessus and Yartim shook hands friendly on the sidelines. The two of them exchanged greetings and stood in the coach's command area waiting for the start of the game.

In addition to the team's goal in the game, he could see Yartim's cathartic smile, in addition to his calm performance on weekdays, anyone with discerning eyes can see that he is under great pressure, some are worried about gains and losses, and some are cautious.

Braga is walking on thin ice all the way, and both local cups have reached the finals. The UEFA Cup is expected to reach the semi-finals. The league has a great advantage in the championship, but it has also come to the most important juncture!

If you can't win against Benfica and Porto in the next round, Braga's efforts in one season may be gone after two rounds of games!

No one can understand this pressure personally. Even Braga players are mostly welcoming every week's events with the mindset of "fighting if you want to fight", and never think about the headache of winning the game in the best way.

The test for players is a difficult game, and performance is better or worse is a watershed between personal ability and level, while for coaches, dealing with the complex situation in the season sprint stage is also a huge challenge.

To move from a civilian coach to the threshold of a front-line coach, this is also a process of transformation.

No one will directly award the championship to Braga's players, so naturally Yartim cannot expect to easily become one of the top coaches in Portugal just by taking the team to fight south and north.

They are all fighting for better results and better self!

Although Barbosa was suspended from the red card and could not play, he still came to Lisbon with the team. However, he sat in the box to watch the football match in luxury. He looked even more serious than the Braga players who walked out of the player channel!

The players of the two teams lined up on the court. At this moment, no Benfica fans in the stands of the Light Stadium will underestimate Braga, who was once inconspicuous!

Tang Hong seemed to be a little more relaxed than before. He even had a brief chat with the little girl standing in front of him during the kickoff ceremony.

"You seem unhappy."

"Yes, because I'm a Benfica fan, my dad is, my grandpa and grandma are, too."

"Your mom isn't a fan?"

"She is also a fan, but she supports Sporting Lisbon and she is a traitor to our family."

"It seems that I can't make you happy anymore. I originally planned to give you a jersey after the game."

"If Braga wins the game, you will not make me happy with anything you give me, but it will relieve my sorrow because I can give the jersey to Tim."

"Who is Tim?"

"My classmate, he takes good care of me at school. Their family moved to Lisbon from Braga. He has been mentioning you in my ears for the past year."

"Haha, OK, no matter whether Braga wins or not, I will give you a jersey after the game."

When the kickoff ceremony ended, Tang Hong smiled and waved with the little girl who accompanied him to the stage.

After putting away his smile, taking a pre-match photo with his teammates, he went to the court to stand in a position and wait for the start of the game.

"Good evening, everyone, everyone, the Portuguese Super League has reached the 25th round. Today, I will broadcast the highlight of this round to everyone at the Lisbon Light Stadium. Benfica will play against the league leader Braga at home!

Braga has been in the lead position for too long, and whether they can lead the way and pass the finish line depends on their performance in the last six league rounds!

Benfica is currently behind Braga 8 points. If he cannot defeat Braga in this game, then if he wants to reverse Braga, he can only pray that Braga will collapse in the remaining game!

If you want to pray for a good result in Portugal, you will naturally go to Braga!

So I think Benfica's better control his destiny, that is, defeating Braga at home today!

Both teams have players injured, let’s take a look at their starting lineup today.

Benfica started 433 today.

The magnificent and magnificent Light Stadium was hustle and bustle. A key battle that determined the fate of the two teams was instantly fired after the referee blew the whistle!
