Chapter 32 He Is My Target!
Entering December, Portuguese football also ushered in a heavy news.

Porto coaching change has been put on the agenda.

Machado's coaching performance this season is unsatisfactory. Leiria's young coach Mourinho seems to be a certainty to go north, which also brings new threats to other teams in the Portuguese Super League.

As the most popular young coach in Portuguese football at the moment, Mourinho's coaching ability is still very good.

Porto's situation in the Portuguese Super League this season is not optimistic. In the Champions League, although they entered the second round of the group stage and drew a very good lottery, they were in a group with Real Madrid, Panathinaikos and Sparta Prague.

Before the draw, public opinion in Portugal agreed that Porto's promotion to the quarter-finals of the Champions League is just around the corner.

Unexpectedly, a [-]-[-] draw with Panathinaikos in the first game away, and a [-]-[-] home loss to Sparta Prague in the second game, almost ruined the good situation of the second round of the group stage, which also became the fuse for Machado's dismissal.

The Portuguese Super League defending champion Boavista's situation is not optimistic.

Although they defeated Ligue [-] Nantes [-]-[-] in the first game, they lost [-]-[-] away to the Red Devils Manchester United in the second game.

The next two rounds of group matches against Bayern Munich will be crucial.

……

The Portuguese Super League team failed successively in the Champions League, and also performed poorly in the UEFA Cup.

The last remaining Sporting Lisbon drew Serie A giants AC Milan in the third knockout round. The two sides played the first round at the end of November. Sporting Lisbon lost [-]-[-] away to the Rossoneri.

Ukrainian nuclear warhead Andriy Shevchenko, whom Sudong likes very much, opened the scoring in the game, and Inzaghi made the icing on the cake in the second half.

Losing the away game in the first round, Sporting Lisbon was also forced to a dead end.

Head coach Boloni uttered harsh words, vowing to reverse his opponent at home.

It is worth mentioning that the winter break is approaching, and Sporting Lisbon's center Jardl is dissatisfied with the team's away performance in European games. It is rumored that the Brazilian center is likely to transfer and leave during the winter break.

Jadr himself also stated that this possibility is not ruled out.

This also made the already unfavorable Sporting Lisbon even worse.

In this case, the two sides ushered in the second round of the match.

This is a rare sight in the Portuguese Super League. The matchup against the giants is in Lisbon, so of course Sudong can't miss it.

Ronnie snatched a few tickets from the club and took Su Dong, Jose Semedo, Mendes and Manuel to the Alvalade Stadium to watch the game.

…………

…………

After all, it is a European competition. Although it is only the UEFA Cup, the match against a giant like AC Milan filled the Alvalade Stadium with a total of nearly [-] fans to the scene, creating a new high attendance rate for this season.

Although they won [-]-[-] at home in the first round, Ancelotti was very conservative in the away game.

Didn't take out the double forwards at home, and hid Inzaghi in the snow, which made Su Dong, who got the starting squad in the stands, a little disappointed.

But fortunately, Shevchenko, known as Ronaldo, is the lone striker.

Four-four-one, or four-five-one, Rui Costa plays the front midfielder, Gattuso and Donati form a double midfielder, and Caladze and Contra form the midfield wings.

Sporting Lisbon has not changed here, and they still play with [-].

This is a common tactic used by Boloni this season.

Although Porto was defeated in the league opener, Bologni's team ushered in a losing streak afterwards. It was not until he adopted a double forward and activated Jardl and Nikule that Sporting Lisbon's offensive firepower was able to play a threat.

But in this way, in order to ensure the defense and stability of the midfield, we have to adopt a [-] or [-] formation.

Unlike when he played Porto before, Ronnie was in a good mood, because his arch-enemy Quaresma continued to miss the starting lineup.

On the contrary, the young midfielder who has performed well this season, Ugo Viana, who has the title of Rui Costa II, continues to appear in the midfielder position of the starting lineup.

When the fake Li Gui meets the real Li Kui, who can win?
……

At the beginning of the game, Sporting Lisbon did not attack blindly.

Facing an opponent like AC Milan, no one dares to be careless.

The Rossoneri in the away game have a two-goal advantage in hand, and they also seek stability.

In the first half, the two sides played very stalemate, and the tension was more than intense, but the game was really ugly.

The only impressive thing is that Rui Costa's few passes are really good, Gattuso gallops all over the field, and Viana is doing nothing in the midfield.

As a striker, Su Dong is observing Shevchenko more.

Known as Ronaldo, but in fact, Shevchenko's characteristics are very different from Ronaldo.

To some extent, Shevchenko is much more comprehensive than Ronaldo, such as his header.

Fast, explosive, outstanding technique, excellent dribbling ability, very threatening after a few times, but what really impressed Su Dong is that, as a single forward, Shevchenko has a wide range of running.

He is always actively involved in every attack of the team, even if the ball does not reach his feet.

After changing sides to fight again in the second half, Sporting Lisbon suddenly launched an attack, and in a pass from the side, Jardel attracted the defense of the central defender, then flew the header and assisted Nikule to make the first move, giving Sporting Lisbon a head start.

One to zero, the total score is one to two!

In an instant, the entire Alvalade stadium boiled.

All the home fans seemed to see the dawn of victory.

But AC Milan is a veteran giant after all, and quickly stabilized its position.

Then Ancelotti took the lead in making adjustments. The Spanish player Moreno replaced Rui Costa and changed to [-].

It was this substitution at a critical moment that played an incredible role at the last moment of the game.

Shevchenko still ran in a wide range. After pulling to the side to catch the ball, he suddenly started and forcibly broke through near the bottom line.

Sporting Lisbon adopts a three-five-two formation. When defending, the two full-backs will return to the position of the full-backs and become a five-three-two formation. But this time they failed to come back in time. Shevchenko made a pass from the wing to the penalty area, and Moreno calmly sent the ball into the goal.

One to one, the total score is three to one!

In the No. 809 minute of the game, Shevchenko's key assist brought a draw for AC Milan and kept the victory. At the same time, it also brought a huge shock to Su Dong in the stands.

……

"It turns out that this is the world's top superstar!"

Su Dong couldn't believe it.

Sporting Lisbon focused on marking Shevchenko throughout the game. The Ukrainian has been making a wide range of runs in the 10-minute game, and it can even be said to be useless.

This caused the home team's defender to consume too much physical energy and psychologically a little bit at the end of the game.

As a result, it was such a small mistake that was fatally hit by Shevchenko.

Moreno's finishing kick is crucial, and the back-up is also surprising. Even Ancelotti replaced Rui Costa, and after the replacement, he inserted a stronger Moreno. These are all wonderful strokes.

But all this can work, the key lies in Shevchenko.

"In nine or 10 minutes, I ran without hesitation, just for that momentary flash." The more experienced Su Dong was in playing football, the more he admired Shevchenko, and even wanted to worship him.

He seized almost the only chance in the audience.

What a terrifying ability this is.

"Yes, many people say that among the generation of forwards born in the [-]s, Ronaldo is unique, and Shevchenko is close behind. Arsenal's Henry is still lacking a bit of taste, and Manchester United's Ruud van Nistelrooy is a pure scorer."

When Mendes looked at Su Dong, his eyes were full of expectation.

In the eyes of many people, Shevchenko is the most perfect top striker, with strong left and right feet, excellent speed and explosive power, long-distance raids, grabbing spots in the penalty area, and long-range shots from the outside...almost everything, he is extremely proficient.

What's even more commendable is that he has comprehensive skills, whether he is fighting alone or with his teammates, he can do it with ease.

Such a player can be said to be a template.

And Su Dong should also work hard in this direction, because he is also very characteristic.

More importantly, he is taller than Shevchenko.

"When he was 21 years old, he led Kiev Dimona to the semi-finals of the Champions League, scored a hat-trick at Camp Nou, and became famous in the first battle; at the age of 22, he scored twice at home to beat Real Madrid and scored an away goal to help the team eliminate Real Madrid [-]-[-]. In the subsequent [-]-[-] draw with Bayern Munich, he scored twice again."

Ronnie obviously knows all about Shevchenko's brilliance.

These days, who doesn't know Shevchenko among fans?

"He is my goal!" Ronnie stood up, pointing at the field, "I want to be 21 years old, complete the feat he has done, and I even want to surpass him!"

Su Dong nodded again and again, and his heart was also full of such longing.

"Then you have to work harder. I believe that with your abilities and potential, as long as you work hard, you will have the opportunity to achieve it. You can be stronger and better than Shevchenko." Mendes not only didn't think that the two of them were arrogant and tried to challenge the world-class superstars, but encouraged them.

Su Dong and Ronnie looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

Jose Semedo on the side looked at it, but felt a sense of emptiness and loss in his heart.

Once upon a time, he was Ronnie's only friend in Lisbon, but now, Ronnie only has Su Dong in his heart.

What makes him feel even more disappointed is that a few months ago, Su Dong was just an amateur who couldn't play in the youth team of a semi-professional team, but now he has become a favorite of all the major teams in the Portuguese Super League.

At this moment, looking at Ronnie's ambitious rhetoric, and seeing the firmness and determination in Su Dong's eyes, Jose Semedo reflected on himself, and felt even more lost and depressed.

He wanted to continue to be good friends with the two of them, but now he watched them running wildly all the way, while he fell further and further behind.

Sometimes he even wondered if it wouldn't be long before he could no longer be friends with them?

He really wanted to work harder to catch up with them, and even made up his mind countless times.

But in the end...
