057 Hidden Dragon in the Abyss

The three major football media in Portugal have reported on the first round of the Portuguese Super League.

Braga, Benfica and Sporting Lisbon all encountered a draw, while Porto scored a penalty with Brazilian striker Hulk.

"The defending champion set sail, all competitors start and slip!"

The draw in Braga did not bring much distraction to the people in the city, and the slow-paced life went as usual.

After all, I have never won the Portuguese Super League championship before, and no one really thinks that the club will definitely strive for the championship or have the capital to challenge the championship this season.

Anyway, I'm used to it.

Compared to the bad start of the Portuguese Super League, everyone pays more attention to the qualifying round of the Europa League that will be held next!

Braga's opponent is a young man from the Swiss Premier League.

When Braga was at home against the Young People in the middle of the week, the game was held at 9 pm. Tang Hong was still not on the roster and he did not go to the home court to watch the game. He was not used to sitting for a long time, which would only make him feel uncomfortable.

After only watching the team's performance in the first half at home, Tang Hong went to bed early to regain his energy.

After watching the match results at home the next morning, Tang Hong couldn't help but frown.

Another 0:0!

This means that Braga's entry into the Europa League is a bit lingering!

As a member of Braga, Tang Hong would not gloat about the incompetence of these main players. Whether from the perspective of team honors or the opportunities brought by the UEFA Cup, Tang Hong naturally hopes that the team can enter the UEFA Cup.

Two games 0:0 made Braga's relaxed atmosphere completely disappear before the season.

Even the club chairman Salvador came to the training ground to communicate with head coach Altim for half an hour.

It is obvious that Yartim's idea of ​​having a good start to the new season is almost disappointed!

If the Europa League qualification is lost, the morale and blow of the whole team will definitely be extremely heavy, especially with more than 30 first-team players. How many people will lose the opportunity to play?

With only 30 rounds of Portuguese Super League and two local cup matches, many people probably have to sit on the bench and watch the water dispenser in one season.

The atmosphere on the training ground has become less relaxed, and is replaced by seriousness and solemnity.

Even Barbosa did not come to tease Tang Hong again. Some main players seemed to be worried, but the substitutes and rotation players were even more energetic. Their opportunity came!

On Friday evening, the team held the training match as usual. Tang Hong was assigned to the substitute this time, but his playing time increased. When he came on as a substitute, he got nearly 15 minutes.

He is still playing the left winger. After he appeared on the court, he has been running without the ball. He always pays attention to the situation on the court, especially the position of the local defensive players he faces. As a forward, the position is actually very particular. The court is so big. How to make good use of the relationship between space and position is a game of cat and mouse.

When he was in China, Tang Hong was more free in his position because he had more tasks, but in Braga, he still adhered to his duties and became a winger.

As a winger, there are two basic running methods: either pull the edge at the extreme and take the ball from the left and the local belt to control the ball, or stand close to the inside line in the middle of the back line and the midfield line, which can deter the back line. If the defender is on the top defense, there is room for turning and inserting forward. At the same time, it can also create space for the full-back to assist and cooperate more closely with the middle teammates.

These two positions and activity trajectories mainly depend on where the ball comes from and where it stands to allow teammates to pass the ball safer, so you have to run there!

Seeing that five minutes passed, Tang Hong finally received the pass from Brazilian midfielder Salino. The moment he received the pass, Nuno Gomez and Ukara were running, hoping that Tang Hong could pass the ball quickly to them.

However, Tang Hong quickly dribbled the ball after touching the ball. He responded at the inside position and noticed that the midfielder Custodio was coming towards him. It was obvious that the Portuguese veteran was a little arrogant and wanted to directly kill Tang Hong's ball-handling threat.

But Tang Hong took the lead and then dribbled the ball and turned to the middle direction, and happened to cross it with Custodio. The opponent didn't even have the chance to raise his hand to pull it!

Perez has been emphasizing Tang Hong for the past week that he should speed up on the court!

At the same time, Wise also reminded him not to get involved with his opponents and to avoid falling into a situation where he is weak in physical confrontation.

Therefore, Tang Hong needs to start faster, and even cannot wait for the opponent to make changes in ball control. He often chooses speed and timing to get rid of or break through unexpectedly!

Tang Hong, who was dribbling inside, looked at Amorin's position. The opponent was from the main team, and it was obviously too late to assist in defense and make up for the middle area in front of the penalty area!

Tang Hong didn't take him seriously. After dribbling and quickly hitting the front of the penalty area, central defender Dougron stepped forward and pressed. Tang Hong changed the ball and used his flexibility to shake out the angle and then shot!

Nuno Gomez and Ukara both ran into the offside area because Tang Hong did not pass the ball. When they looked back, the football that Tang Hong burst out flew straight into the upper right corner of the goal like a cannonball!

The old goalkeeper Quim was shocked and moved in a hurry to save but was unable to turn the world back!

When the football flew into the goal, no one cheered Tang Hong. Instead, Nuno Gomez walked to Tang Hong and said with a little anger: "Don't think you can be a hero on the field! When it's time to pass the ball, pass the damn football out!"

Tang Hong used to see Nuno Gomez fighting in the stands wearing the Portuguese national team's style, but facing Nuno Gomez, who is now 35 years old, Tang Hong does not think he should give the opportunity to the other party.

He may be an old horse in the stable, but Tang Hong is also a hidden dragon in the abyss!

Fame and achievements are always the past tense, and who knows how they will perform in the next game?

The iron-die camp and the general, yesterday's general, might become a passerby tomorrow!

Tang Hong completely understood Nuno Gomez's scolding, but he showed no reaction. He just glanced at the other party indifferently, then turned around and walked towards the backcourt.

The world will not revolve around Tang Hong, and God will not necessarily give Nuno Gomez a face.

Tang Hong doesn’t care what the other party wants. He still wants the main position. Who wants it?

However, Yartim and other coaches looked at Tang Hong's performance just now. He showed his confidence and skills by passing Custodio. He was definitely a mature choice to sway from Dougron before shooting at the front of the penalty area. The final score was also wonderful. If it was placed in the professional arena, it would be a wonderful goal that cheered everyone!

The training game continued. With 4 minutes to end the game, Tang Hong took the ball again on the left side of the frontcourt. This time he received a pass from full-back Paul Vinicius. He received the ball from behind and turned around and walked into the inward cutting channel. Custodio and full-back Bayano attacked him and defended him.

Tang Hong stopped and pulled the ball down from the outside when Bayano took the lead and snatched the ball. He observed the situation in the middle of the penalty area in front of the bottom line and knocked the ball back to the middle of the penalty area.

Brazilian midfielder Frank, who followed up and shot the goalkeeper and shot it away!

Although the ball was not scored, even the players on the court looked at Tang Hong's performance this time.

It is never meaningful to simply explore technology. Only how to use technology and effects on the court can there be meaning to judge.

Even the players of the main team looked at Tang Hong with a serious expression. After Barbosa saw Tang Hong, he glanced at Viana again. Viana could do Tang Hong's performance just now from a technical level, but judging from the consistency and observation of the situation and the shooting effect during the same period, Viana, who is 10 years older than Tang Hong and has rich experience, may not be able to do so well.

Maybe it's just that this kid is in very good condition today.

After the training match, Yartim summarized today's training and told the players to go back and have a good rest.

Of course, we need to prepare for the weekend's home league!

Before Tang Hong left, Yartim stopped him.

"Go back and have a good rest, adjust your condition, and you will be on the roster for the weekend games."

Yartim specifically reminded Tang Hong again that he hoped that if he had the opportunity to make Tang Hong appear, then he must be prepared!

Tang Hong nodded solemnly after hearing this.
Chapter completed!
