Beast King Costa

Chapter 99 Monster!This guy is a monster!

Until 20 minutes into the game, Ronald Koeman still did not return to the coach's bench to sit down.

Racking his brains until now, Ronald Koeman has not figured out the purpose of Jesualdo Ferreira's 5-3-2 formation.

Especially now that Braga's formation has changed again. Joao Thomas has returned to the midfield, leaving only Diego Costa in the frontcourt, and it has become an irregular 5-4-1 iron barrel formation.

It's like a wave of ups and downs.

One problem after another made Ronald Koeman's brain almost explode.

At this moment, although Benfica has an absolute advantage on the field-the ball possession rate is 75% to 25%, and the number of passes is 4 times that of Braga.

But the problem is, there is not even a shot data!

Empty has ball possession rate and number of passes, what use is there for an egg?

At least Braga has had one shot, even one on target.

This made Ronald Koeman very tangled.

This side didn't figure out what trick Jesualdo Ferreira had secretly arranged, and the other side couldn't accept that their team hadn't even had a shot so far.

Ok……

Although Ronald Koeman is not a Virgo, he is a difficult choice!

Just when Ronald Koeman was struggling, Diego in the frontcourt stole the ball again and counterattacked!

This time, the "prey" that Diego aimed at was still Nuno Gomez!

Even though Nuno Gomez was already on guard after being intercepted by Diego, the physical difference between the two was too big. After a direct confrontation, Nuno Gomez only felt that he had bumped into A piece of steel plate is so messed up that it can't find its center of gravity.

Before Nuno Gomez could stabilize his body, Diego already took the ball and rushed straight towards the Benfica penalty area.

But this time, Ricardo Rocha and Kleiber Anderson did not lose their minds.

The two intercepted immediately, double-teaming Diego into an "egg and ham sandwich".

(PS: Lao Mouzi’s breakfast today is fried eggs and ham to make Hong Kong-style tea restaurant sandwiches! Fried chicken is delicious! Lao Mouzi said before: Lao Mouzi’s cooking skills are better than writing~)

Diego would not let them succeed.

The witty Diego knew that it was impossible for him to break through between the two international-level central defenders. However, it was no problem to use the rules of the game to take advantage of the opponent's double-team.

When the three were about to confront each other directly, Diego suddenly moved the ball forward with his right foot and passed the ball between Ricardo Rocha and Kleiber Anderson.

And I directly came to a "three-party meeting" with Ricardo Rocha and Kleiber Anderson.

"what……"

All three of them confronted directly at high speed, just like a car accident happened on the highway, and the three of them fell together at the scene of the accident—this was the first time that Rocha and Anderson confronted Diego physically. Unprepared, both of them were knocked dizzy.

"Beep..."

The referee's whistle sounded very timely, and he rushed to the scene of the incident as soon as possible.

For this situation, the referee didn't need to hesitate. He raised his arm directly towards the Benfica penalty area and gave Braga a free kick in the middle of the front court, about 32 meters away from the goal.

After all, this is a standard defensive foul of "letting the ball pass and not letting others pass". Even if the three of them fell together, according to the rules, it is a foul by the defender.

"Diego, are you alright?"

Joao Thomas rushed to the scene of the incident as soon as possible, concerned about Diego's situation.

"hey-hey!"

Diego grinned, let Joao Thomas pulled him up, shook his head and said, "Boss Joao, I'm fine, don't worry."

Diego is fine, but that doesn't mean Rocha and Anderson are fine.

The two iron guards were groaning in pain on the ground at the moment. In desperation, Pettit could only quickly call the team doctor on the sidelines to enter the field.

This also became a very strange scene: Diego, who was fouled, had stood up, and he knew nothing was wrong with his lively appearance; Rocha and Anderson, who were fouled, were still lying on the ground in a daze, For a long time, I couldn't find the southeast and northwest.

Seeing his two national iron guards, in the second defense and first defense, were bumped into this by a teenager under the age of 18, the hardcore Benfica fans at the Stadium of Light suddenly became restless and booed constantly.

"Did Anderson go to the spa last night?!"

"What the hell, my legs are getting weaker and weaker! I can't even stand firmly!"

"No wonder you played like shit this season! It's the problem of your defense!"

"Rocha get out! Anderson get out! The Flying Eagles don't need you bastards!!!"

……

The players in Braga were stunned. The fans of the Stadium of Light are too hardcore, right?He even booed his own players?
It can be seen that it is not easy to be a player of the three giants of the Portuguese Super League!If you don't play well, you will be turned over by the fans immediately. If your mentality is a little bad, you may be depressed because of it.

Fortunately, Rocha and Anderson were only flawed. After a while, they finally stood up and cast a surprised look at Diego.

The two of them complained at the same time.

"Monster! This guy's physical quality is simply a monster!"

"It's scary! Is this steel-plate-like body really human?!"

However, at this moment, Diego was discussing free kick tactics with Andres Madrid and Paul Jorge, and did not notice the "praise" given to him by Rocha and Anderson.

Otherwise, with Diego's character, he might be a little proud.

After the team doctor took Rocha and Anderson to the sidelines, the game resumed!

According to the rules, the team doctor enters the field for treatment, and the treated player needs to leave the field for a short time.

With this withdrawal, two central defenders were withdrawn, so Ronald Koeman did not dare to leave manpower in the frontcourt to prepare for a counterattack, but let the players return to the penalty area to stand on defense.

In this way, Braga can rest assured that only Frechette is left in the backcourt.Except for Andris Madrid who took the free kick, other players flooded into the Benfica penalty area.

"Beep..."

The referee's whistle sounded!

After Andres Madrid raised his hand to signal the location of his free kick, he stepped on in small steps, pumped his right foot, and sent the ball into the Benfica penalty area.

Because at this moment, the inside of Benfica's penalty area is like a tourist attraction during China's "October Golden Week", everyone is everywhere...so, there is no way to man-to-man defense.

Whether it's the high point on the offensive side or the tall player on the defensive side, everyone's goal is quite the same-the first landing point!
As the ball fell in an arc, everyone huddled together and jumped to the top of the ball's first landing point.

However, both Rocha and Anderson are not at high points, and Benfica still suffers a lot when it comes to header competition.

The first spot was won by Braga central defender Paul Jorge!

But because of the crowds around him, Paul Jorge was not able to use his strength to complete the header. He could only ferry the ball to a place with few people.

Just as the defensive players were aiming at the landing point of Paul Jorge's ferry, they were shocked to find that a menacing figure appeared from the second landing point.

It’s Diego Costa again! ! !

Without knowing when, Diego had already broken free from the crowd, and cleverly judged to reach the second landing point.

Before the ball hit the ground, Diego hit the ball with a kick!
"Diego Costa shoots in front of goal!"

Seeing this scene, Portugal Sports TV's "Fancy Blowing Brother" broke his voice on the spot: "Is this ball, is there any!?"
