The Green Superstar

Chapter 61 - Thirty-five minutes

“Nuno Gomez scored with a header! Braga scored two goals in 10 minutes!

The 35-year-old Nuno Gomez moved to Braga from Benfica in the summer. He is still looking forward to a bright glow in the twilight of his career!

The ball came from an assist from Chinese forward Tang Hong. When he transferred a long pass from the wing to meet Viana, he directly picked the ball to get rid of it and tore open Maritimo’s defense!

Breaking Roberge in front of the penalty zone completely penetrated the opponent’s defense!

The most surprising thing is that instead of choosing to shoot himself, he saw Nuno Gomez outflanked from a distance!

Many fledgling young players can only see the opponent’s goal on the court at the beginning, and think about becoming a hero at any time, but this Tang Hong feels different. If it weren’t for the information, you wouldn’t think that This is the first show of his career!

He showed extraordinary maturity!

Braga’s two goals in the new season all came from new players, which at least shows that their summer signings work has an immediate effect.

Maritimo fell behind by two goals and it was very difficult to get back the game!

Braga 2:0 Maritimo. “

The team’s most famous star, Nuno Gomez, scored a goal, and he enjoyed the cheers from Braga fans in the corner flag area.

When Tang Hong trot over as usual, Nuno Gomez turned around and put his hand on Tang Hong’s face and praised: “The pass is awesome! You surprised everyone!”

Before 15 minutes, Tang Hong was definitely a non-existent character in Braga’s first team, but everything has changed since his debut!

Not only the outside world began to recognize the striker from China, Braga players also need to re-understand their teammates.

After Tang Hong celebrated with his teammates, followed the big team towards the backcourt, Viana came to him and smiled: “So you are so good, why didn’t you notice it during training?”

Tang Hong casually said: “Training and competition are two different things, and there is no chance during the training competition.”

Viana immediately knew that if Tang Hong was placed on the main team during the training match, he would have more chances to touch the ball and get more support, and he would be able to show more.

Reminiscent of Tang Hong’s performance in the training game the night before yesterday, Viana and several Braga players have a feeling that they have only really begun to understand this Chinese who is usually teased by them.

Yaltim clenched his fists excitedly, this ball, Nuno Gomez’s failure to score, will only detract from his performance, and will only add a little bit if he scores, because the main process of creating opportunities comes from Tang Hong .

One time can be said to be accidental, but two times it is difficult to explain by coincidence.

Tang Hong’s ability in the 10-minute game time necessitated Yaltim’s reassessment.

Professional players have reached the modern age and there is no difference between good and bad training. Because the training attitude is not good, the players who fail to pay can not even enter the big list, and they will inevitably be swept out. Basically all players will be trained to meet the standard. But good training does not mean that you can perform well in the game. If you do not stand out in training, you must be ineffective on the field.

Tang Hong’s performance and effect in training are at the upper-middle level in the team. This is almost his limit for his age. After all, players who are 4 or 5 years older than him will be more energetic and have better physical fitness, but When it comes to the game, Tang Hong has an overall outlook and mental maturity beyond his age.

Too many young players who are eager to perform will make mistakes. Tang Hong is able to use skills in high-speed dribbling. A little is enough to make him admire him. The assist of Nuno Gomez is even more important for him. A qualitative leap in performance and standards!

He demonstrated teamwork with actions!

He is not so passionate about fighting alone!

Maritimo center defender Roberge was broken by Tang Hong twice, but his face was uncontrollable. It was mainly because of the lack of protection in front of him and the complete failure of the barrier in front of the penalty area. The anger was sprayed on Sosa!

“If you are not sure about stealing the ball, don’t rush out! Come back to the defense honestly. Being an obstacle is a hundred times stronger than getting caught early!”

Souza could not refute Roberge’s words. Roberge, who is 10 cm taller and much stronger than Tang Hong, did have some difficulty facing the breakthrough of technical players. The key was to make Tang Hong completely charged!

When the opponent’s high-speed dribbling is one-on-one, the central defender will be at a greater disadvantage and it is often difficult to keep up with the opponent’s changing rhythm!

At this time, a midfielder or full-back is needed to help form a zone defense.

The bleachers of the municipal stadium were restless. The fans of the home team were discussing the team’s goals and the performance of the players. Some dedicated fans began to shout slogans for the team to continue their efforts!

When he was one goal behind, Maritimo did not make a big counterattack, but only accelerated the rhythm of offense and defense, and was more patient in creating opportunities.

Now that they are two goals behind, will they lose their space and press on?

will not!

The style of the Portuguese Super League is not emotional and easy to lose control. They know very well that the game is not determined to survive a desperate situation.

Braga still has the initiative on the field. Compared with the first half they took the initiative but the striker did not create a threat, the second half made the midfield attack more effective.

Maritimo’s striker ability is very strong, but the room for better play is that there is room for them to play a speed advantage in the counterattack situation.

Braga, who is leading with two goals, will naturally not be easily countered by his opponent.

Maritimo began to gradually exert his strength in the frontcourt offense, which will increase the risk of the backcourt defense.

Tang Hong actively runs in the midfield and the frontcourt. Due to the increased attention given by the opponent’s defense, he has no obvious good chance to break through when he receives the pass of his teammates. He does not stick to the ball. Move after the ball is out.

Barbosa and Viana did not take risks easily due to the increased control of the game, which led to Braga’s desire to attack forward also diminished over time.

Four days later, they will have to be a guest in Switzerland to challenge the young people. That game will be more important than the league!

Braga’s center Lima is very anxious, because Tang Hong and Nuno Gomez have scored goals. As the team’s main center, he naturally needs to defend his position and prove his worth.

In the 77th minute of the game, Tang Hong withdrew from the wing and took the initiative to stop the ball and then passed the ball diagonally to the front right.

Forward Paul Cesar, who replaced Nuno Gomez, stopped the ball outside the penalty area.

After the ball, Tang Hong saw Sousa slam in front of him one step later, he immediately ran to the left rib zone of the penalty area, trying to catch Paul Cesar’s cross.

Cesar intended to cross on the right, but full-back Ruben posted it, so he knocked the ball back to Viana, who sent a kick to the ground after adjusting the flank. .

Lima ran diagonally from the middle of the penalty area to Robinson’s back area, half-turned towards the ball in the right side of the penalty area and volleyed the far corner of the goal!

Maritimo goalkeeper Pesania made a decisive save and blocked the ball with the palm of his right hand!

The football bounced diagonally to the left rib of the penalty area!

Pesania had just finished a save, and when he saw the direction the football bounced, his face was pale, and he was about to get up again but it was too late!

The football flew back straight into the goal!

Just two seconds ago, when Tang Hong rushed to the penalty area line, he saw Lima catching up with Viana, so he speeded up and rushed into the penalty area like a cheetah in an attempt to catch it from a distance!

At least if he is Lima, he is very likely not to shoot, but to sweep the ball behind the goal!

Opportunities are often waiting for the players to see, then it almost disappears.

Only by measuring ahead and trying to seize a potential opportunity, then it is possible to be ready to seize the opportunity when it really appears!

Lima didn’t pass the ball, but his shot was blocked by goalkeeper Pesania and bounced to the left side of the penalty area, which happened to be Tang Hong’s impact on the line!

Roberge also gritted his teeth and turned around when Tang Hong rushed past him. But seeing that Tang Hong was already in the lead, Roberge pushed on Tang Hong’s shoulders. As Tang Hong fell to the side with weightlessness, Tang Hong stretched out. Go and sweep the ball towards the goal with your right foot!

While the football flew into the goal, Tang Hong fell to the ground in front of the small penalty area and then stood up after a lap. This time he turned and ran to the corner flag area, leaping in the air and making a violent punch. After a wild roar, Tang Hong who landed on the ground held up his chest and smiled, putting his hands to his ears to make a celebration of listening to the cheers!

Braga Municipal Stadium is completely boiling!

Even though countless fans in the stands still cannot pronounce his name correctly, everyone is cheering for Tang Hong!

From being obscured to enjoying the cheers, Tang Hong only took less than 35 minutes!
