Brazilian players like to joke, and sometimes they even make people feel a little childish. They scratch each other and poke you on the training ground, and they are not tired of playing like primary school students.

People who are not used to it are mostly just invisible, but if someone jokes randomly at important moments, it will inevitably arouse public anger.

Salino was obviously mentally normal and knew that the team was depressed at this time. If he said the wrong thing, it would be likely to cause disgust. When he saw everyone coming, he hurriedly said: "Onihans tied Benfica at home..."

"Um?"

Everyone looked at each other. This should be good news. Braga lost points and Benfica also lost points. Braga at least has no change in his lead over Benfica.

Custodio seemed to have guessed something and asked, "What else is there good news?"

Salino's eyes rolled and he whispered: "Ferrera tied Porto 1:1 at home."

Everyone showed a slightly surprised expression now.

Such a coincidence?

All the top three teams in the Portuguese Super League have encountered a draw in this round?

Neither the pre-war agreement nor the vicious curse was granted, Porto and Benfica really missed a great opportunity!

It may be understandable that Benfica's failure has been a bit unrivaled in the Portuguese Super League in recent years, but Porto seems to have declined a lot from the same period last season.

Logically speaking, the championship team should not stare at the opponent. Trying to be perfect is the right attitude. However, after failing to win the University of Coimbra at home, it was learned that Porto and Benfica were unable to win. This is good news for Braga. At least with only 6 rounds left in the Portuguese Super League, Braga led Porto by 6 points and 8 points ahead of Benfica.

After the post-match interview, Yartim returned to the locker room and did not express his opinion on the game. Instead, he encouraged the team to let everyone forget the game as soon as possible and not have any unhappiness in their hearts. Go home and have a good rest. They will go to Germany to fight soon.

In fact, let alone Braga players, Yartim himself can feel how much pressure the season is entering the end of the season!

Time flies back to August last year. Who would have thought that Braga would play in the middle and lower-level teams in a difficult situation from beginning to end?

That is a special treatment that only the three wealthy families have.

Braga faced the difficulties of the game, and the fatigue and ups and downs of the intensive schedule were unexpected!

If you think that Braga has not tried his best to win the game at this time, whether it is performance or attitude, it is definitely a difficult task.

Naturally, Yartim would not do this.

Moreover, he also learned that Porto and Benfica lost points at the same time in this round. In terms of situation, Braga not only did not worsen after this round, but instead improved slightly, because the lead was not changed, but the remaining league games were fewer!

After Tang Hong returned home, he silently watched the video of the evening game on his computer in the bedroom. He would fast forward the video to the camera that had his own, reflecting on his performance in the game.

If he can maintain a calm mind in the first half, he should be able to win this game today!

He felt a little guilty in his heart, but he also knew that he had to leave these behind when he was asleep and reminded himself to stay calm during the game.

Chen Manhong and Sun Rou dressed up themselves carefully and then embarked on a trip to Germany. Tang Hong's lonely family stayed in Braga for two days and rushed to Germany with the team.

I followed the team to Gelsenkirchen in the Ruhr area of ​​Germany. There are two teams that play a major role in German football, Dortmund and Schalke 04.

In 2006, Tang Hong visited here, to watch the German World Cup.

Although it is a heavy industry and European coal mining center, the development of the Ruhr area in recent years gives people a sense of modernization. The rational Germans have a set of economic development, and all walks of life are planned in an orderly manner. Frankfurt's position in the European economic system is also increasing day by day. This makes Germany very strong when the European economy is generally sluggish, and its voice is gradually strengthening in both business and politics.

The modern and technological stadium of Schalke Stadium will make the players feel very comfortable. Before the game, Tang Hong looked up at the open stadium ceiling when he warmed up here.

After the pre-match preparations were completed, the players of the two teams were preparing to kick off in the player channel. Tang Hong saw a player in Schalke 04 and walked over and asked the other party: "Can you understand my Portuguese? Although someone told me that Spanish and Portuguese are very similar and there is no problem in communicating, I am not sure if you can understand my Portuguese."

He is already a veteran who is in a dilemma. When this man smiles, he has wrinkles on his eyes.

"Of course, I can understand your Portuguese language, hello."

"Hello, Raul, can I book a jersey in advance? When I was a kid, I watched your game from time to time."

Real Madrid legend Raul, who came to Ao to Schalke Stadium from Bernabeu, didn't expect that someone would book his jersey before the game. Looking at Tang Hong's smile, he nodded and said, "No problem, we will exchange jerseys after the game."

Tang Hong shook hands with the other party and returned to Braga's queue. His teammates looked at him with strange eyes. It was not that he was disgusted with him for going to the enemy camp to ask for jerseys, but that he was more like admiring him for rushing to run!

It is estimated that many Braga players also want to get a Raul jersey.

Even if you are retired at home, you can brag even if you are retired in the future.

Look, that's the jersey he gave me after I competed in the same game.

After all, Braga is just a small Portuguese super team, and there are not many opportunities to play in European games, and the probability of meeting legendary stars is even slim.

The two starters of the two teams walked into the Aoyu Schalke Stadium together, and the fanatical cheering in the stadium was exciting.

During the European War, Braga players were almost pursuing perfection in terms of their spirit and appearance. This is definitely a bigger and more popular stage than the Portuguese Super League, so they are not only full of fighting spirit, but also heroic!

Braga fans also have a rare opportunity to follow the team to play abroad. For them, this is an unforgettable experience and memory as a loyal fan of the club.

"Good evening for all the audience. Welcome to the first leg of the UEFA Europa League quarter-finals, Schalke 04 is at home to face Braga's focus event.

In the last round of knockout match Schalke eliminated Twente from the Eredivisie, while Braga surprised to win the ticket to advance by winning the Premier League giant Manchester United away from home.

Braga continued his strength to reach the finals last year in the UEFA Cup this season. What changed differently from last year is that their attack power is unprecedentedly strong, and they are the team with the most goals among the top 8 teams in this UEFA Cup!

Their head scorer Tang Hong is also the number one on the Europa League scorer list!

Let's take a look at the starting lineup of the two teams.

Schalke 04 starts 4231 today.

Goalkeeper: Hildebran.

Defenders: Atsuto Uchida, Papadopoulos, Matip, Foeth.

Midfielders: Falfan, Jermaine Jones, Draxler, Marco Heger, Raul.

Forward: Hunterlaer.

Braga starts 433.

Goalkeeper: Quim.

Defenders: Bayano, Eveton, Coelo, Ezijegile.

Midfielder: Custodio, Barbosa, Amorin.

Forwards: Viana, Lima, Tang Hong.

The competition begins soon, and see if the two teams will bring a wonderful game to the audience today!”

The players of both sides, full of fighting spirit, stood in formation in their respective halfs.

With the referee's whistle, Schalke 04 took the lead.

Schalke 04 did not drag on the mud and directly launched an attack on Braga's defense line.

Midfielder Draxler knocked the ball back to midfielder Heger under Amorin press, who passed the diagonally to find full-back Fauhes on the left.

Fohes and Raul completed a quick wall-to-walk on the left side outside the penalty area and then knocked the ball diagonally back in front of the penalty area to the left.

Draxler rushed forward and took the lead and made a cross, cleverly rolled the ball up to the right side of the penalty area.

Hunteral was blocked by Coelo when he moved to the right rib in the middle of the penalty area, and Falfan cut inwardly from the right, and the ball was controlled by Ezijejel after bounced to the ground.

When fighting against European wars, Braga will inevitably adopt defensive counterattack tactics. As for how the opponent will hit them, Schalke 04 only looks at the starting lineup and knows that they will play relatively positively, which gives Braga a good space to play.

In the 4th minute of the game, Braga initiated a quick counterattack in the backcourt. After Falfan's cross from the right was blocked by Eveton, Amorin passed the ball diagonally across the backcourt from the front of the penalty area.

Viana took the initiative to respond with a cross kick under Fauhes, and Barbosa passed the ball straight ahead.

Lima just stopped the ball and encountered Jermaine Jones' defense, and he decisively hit the ball across the left.

Although it was a double test for Braga's physical fitness and condition in the second half of the season, it is undeniable that the team's cooperation with the first half of the season played smoother and more tacitly.

The first half is basically Tang Hong's one-man show, and the second half begins to bloom in full swing. You just finished singing and I will appear!

Tang Hong quickly cut in and stopped and rushed towards Schalke 04's penalty area. When there were 3 yards left from the penalty area line, Atsuto Uchida rushed to intercept. Tang Hong stopped at his feet and splashed the ball with his right foot to break through from the outside line. Atsuto Uchida immediately stopped and twisted his body and stretched his legs. As a result, just as his body turned to the center of gravity, Tang Hong knocked the ball with his left foot back to the inside line and was about to cross it with him!

Atsuto Uchida had heard of Tang Hong's daimyo in the Japanese national team. Until the past half month, Braga's shocking battle with Manchester United made him very afraid of Tang Hong, because from the perspective of positional relationship, the two happened to face offense and defense, so they naturally would not take it lightly when they faced each other's tit.

Seeing that he was about to be passed, Atsuto Uchida could not stretch out his foot, but his hand grabbed Tang Hong's arm, and then Tang Hong cut inside. With the two forces of Uchida Atsuto's body towards the outside, Atsuto Uchida himself fell to the ground, and Tang Hong was also blocked from his speed.

When Papadopoulos controlled the ball, the referee's whistle had already sounded, giving Braga a dangerous free kick.
Chapter completed!
