Braga failed to win the first leg of the UEFA Cup at home, but the Braga players were a little disappointed.
After the game, they sat in the locker room and were depressed, and the overall gap between the two sides was still obvious.
If we say that the individual gap between players is definitely not particularly obvious, there may be a large gap in only a few positions.
It is an indisputable fact that Valencia's overall technical and tactical strength is indeed superior.
If Athletic Bilbao, which they encountered in the group stage, had not been Bielsa's persistence in attacking and giving Braga a chance to counterattack, it would have been unlikely that Braga would want to turn the tables at home.
Let Valencia escape with an advantageous result, which made it difficult for Braga to challenge his opponent in the second round.
Custodio stood up and said to everyone: "Don't be too discouraged. We still have a chance to try to make a better performance away from home. I believe we can do it!"
"Of course we can do it!"
Yartim, who was interviewed after the game, happened to return to the locker room, and he also actively encouraged everyone to cheer up.
Morale gradually recovered, and everyone cleaned up and went home to recuperate.
When having breakfast the next morning, Tang Hong held milk and kept typing on the keyboard on his laptop. Sun Rou came behind him curiously and asked, "Did you watch the video so early?"
Tang Hong said casually: "Well, study your opponent."
Tang Hong is watching Valencia's performance in the past few games, especially the adjustment of defense and the personal defensive habits of defensive players.
Chen Manhong shook his head slightly from the side. Tang Hong became a persistent madman as long as he was involved in football.
But she also absolutely admires Tang Hong's concentration on football. She even imagined that Tang Hong should be able to succeed by devoting this enthusiasm and focus in other careers.
A man who can focus on a career as much as he does should not achieve nothing.
Tang Hong was not worried about yesterday's game. Braga actually didn't have much time to prepare before playing Valencia. He just had a decisive league championship with Porto. Only after winning did everyone have room to breathe.
But psychological relaxation is also tacit.
Because they are in a state of unstoppable season in the second half of the season, as if no team is their opponent!
Last night, I was a little confused by Valencia at home. Whether it was the team falling behind two goals for a long time or Tang Hong was deeply trapped in the attack, they were caught off guard.
Fortunately, the overall condition in the second half was pretty good, and it was a bit lucky to be able to win a draw in the end.
You should know that Braga scored two goals from supplementary shots.
Whether you recognize the reality now or make up for the loss of the sheep, there is nothing wrong with preparing for the next round.
Braga went to challenge Ferreira on the weekend, and the latter had already declared a successful relegation. Braga theoretically needed 4 points to secure the league championship. However, considering that he was away from Valencia in the middle of next week, whether the UEFA Cup could reach the final depends on the result of the game five days later. Yartim decided to take the risk of rotating the whole team. Many main players did not even make the roster, but Tang Hong went with the team.
After all, Tang Hong is competing for the Portuguese Super League single-season goal record, and sending him on the court is also satisfying his personal willingness to ask for battle, but he won't give him too much time.
When Tang Hong came to the away game, he sat on the bench, Barbosa stayed in Braga, and Amorin also went out with the team as a substitute.
Tang Hong and Amorin chatted casually, and their attention to the game was very limited.
Ferrera saw Braga sending the entire team as a substitute, but they were not under pressure to grab points anyway, so they played very unrestrainedly and radically at home!
This puts great pressure on the Braga defense line.
What was particularly unexpected was that Paul Vinicius was sent off for a foul on the opponent's single player from behind in the 20th minute of the game!
Braga played one less away.
Seeing this, Amorin whispered to Tang Hong: "I guess the coach's mentality is about to explode!"
Tang Hong almost laughed and shook his head and said, "It's not that the score is not behind. I'm afraid it will be bombed if I fall behind."
Yartim is much nervous and does not expect the substitute players to win. It is also good to score at least 1 point. In this way, Braga only needs to win 1 victory in the last three rounds to secure the league championship!
But now he has been sent off. Looking at Ferreira's aggressive state today, it is really a problem whether Braga can return it with his whole body!
Yartim had to make gestures to the team, and he didn't dare to stumble when he fought 11 and fought 11. Now he just shrank back and fought a defensive counterattack.
There was no substitution. After all, even if Ferreira waved her sword, her lethality was very limited.
Ferreira did play very well today, and after 20 minutes of the game, he beat Portuguese Super League leader Braga to bombard him.
The plane and cannons roared, and the football just didn't fly into the door!
The home fans cheered and cheered happily.
Tang Hong looked at the stands with an indescribable expression.
Is it easy to fly for a while, and Is it easy to fly for a while?
If other teams always hit the plane when they see players, they will probably be cursing!
Don't understand.
He really doesn't know that Ferreira's mid- and downstream teams in a league generally have less than 10 shots in a game. When they encounter strong teams, they can be suppressed to about 5 times, not to mention that they have the advantage in the scene and keep shooting.
Can the home team fans feel unhappy?
Brad and his opponent was hit by his 14-foot shot in the first half but did not lose the ball, which was not a miracle, because Ferreira only had 3 shots in the goal range!
During the intermission, Yartim asked Tang Hong to stay on the court to warm up, and his face began to prepare on the court as usual.
Before the second half of the game started, Braga made a substitution, Tang Hong replaced Ukara, who was a rare starter, and formed a trident with Nuno Gomez and Alan. Braga played one less player and the formation hit 423.
Defend to the backcourt, and attacking in the frontcourt depends on the fate of the frontcourt.
Perhaps Ferreira was too excited in the first half, which led to her continued attacking Braga after making her debut in the second half!
After Ferreira's three consecutive shots were blocked by Braga's defender, Braga got an excellent counterattack opportunity.
After Alan quickly advanced from the right side of the frontcourt, he passed the ball across the middle. Nuno Gomez adjusted slightly and saw the gap in the left rib of the penalty area and passed the ball straight through.
After Tang Hong came on as a substitute today, he obviously had a bit of a sense of avoiding the opponent's defensive players. Offense and defense are a game of cat and mouse. Tang Hong must not only reduce consumption, but also avoid injury. Only this kind of play in counterattack, where he catches the gap and uses speed to get rid of the defensive players can maximize the avoidance of confrontation with his opponent or give his opponent a chance to foul.
Tang Hong, who turned offside and cut into the penalty area, formed a single shot with his right foot and completed a rubbing shot and hanged the ball into the upper right corner of the goal!
It seems that the goal is easy.
Ferreira fans were full of bitterness. They bombed and shot for nearly 20 shots, but they were not as efficient as Tang Hong's trick in this counterattack.
Tang Hong scored a goal to give Altim a reassurance, and the players on Braga also recovered from the urgency of being suppressed and attacked.
This goal brought Tang Hong's Portuguese Super League goal to 43 in a single season, surpassing the record of 42 league goals in a single season set by Eusepio and Jadel, and is only 3 goals away from Yasard's 46-goal record.
Ferreira can only bite the bullet and continue attacking fiercely.
Ferreira is really crazy when she is behind in the score, with her offense and defense efficiency improved, and her defensive aggressiveness also soared!
In the 68th minute of the game, Tang Hong reciprocated his lovely cross to Nuno Gomez in the counterattack. Nuno Gomez shot in front of the goal and scored the ball!
Braga, who played one less, led Ferreira two goals away.
Although Braga took the initiative to reduce the rhythm after leading two goals, he could not withstand Ferreira's pressure of defending counter-grabbing. In the 74th minute of the game, Ferreira successfully counter-grabbed the frontcourt and launched a fast break to create a melee in front of Braga's goal!
After seeing the equalization, Ferreira is more like a wolf and tiger, and the foul action scale is larger.
As a result, one person was sent off in the 79th minute of the game!
Now, everyone has the same number.
Ferreira ignored the referee's warning and continued to make a rough foul. As a result, another second player was sent off three minutes later!
From 11 to 10 to 9 to 10!
Ferreira woke up a lot in an instant, but there was not much time for the game.
Tang Hong obviously did not have the idea of scoring a goal. Compared to breaking a record, he needed to prepare for the second round of Valencia. The situation in the second half of the game really made him feel afraid.
Ferreira's rough pressing and fouls can easily cause players to be injured.
When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Yartim smiled and applauded with satisfaction.
Let’s put Valencia aside for the time being. Winning this game means Braga only needs to score another point to win the league championship!
And if Porto loses points in this round, Braga will declare his throne three rounds ahead of schedule!
The competition was not good, but the joy brought by the result made them more motivated!
Porto defeated Bellamar 3-0 at home in the same round. Braga wanted to win the championship as soon as possible until the next round was finished.
Valencia is Spain's third largest city, and fans are basically familiar with the top two cities. Madrid and Barcelona, although Spain's economy is also in a downturn, it is also a good thing that Chen Manhong and Sun Rou have the opportunity to visit major European cities.
The two of them traveled together again, and in the name of cheering for Tang Hong away, Tang Hong has always supported Sun Rou to go out for more walks, but found that she was not a good person who was good at making friends.
Chen Manhong can still meet several Chinese students when he goes to France, and Sun Rou's circle of intersections is always limited to one roof.
But at least she still has someone to accompany her now and will not be bored and lonely.
After three days off in Braga, Tang Hong arrived at Valencia with the team one day in advance to stay in the hotel to regain his strength in the second leg of the Europa League semi-finals.
The ceiling of Braga's season achievement will also depend on the end of the UEFA Champions League battlefield!
