Regarding Sporting Lisbon's opponent, Li Ang does not think it is better than the CSKA Moscow they met in the semi-finals. You must know that in the original history, CSKA Moscow was the UEFA Cup champion this year. Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich's
This Russian Super League team is the most eye-catching team in the UEFA Cup this season. However, in the semi-finals, the Muscovites were eliminated by Sporting Gijon 3-0 at home and 1-2 away, with a total score of 4-2.
Li Ang regards CSKA Moscow as the biggest obstacle for Sporting Gijon to win the championship. After overcoming this hurdle, for Sporting Lisbon, Li Ang believes that the overall strength of his team is stronger than Sporting Lisbon. The opponent's biggest capital is to play at home.
But as soon as the game started, Sporting Lisbon gave him a blow in the head.
In the 6th minute, Sporting Lisbon's Brazilian forward Ledson performed a magic trick in the penalty area. He first deceived Hierro to lose his center of gravity by riding a bicycle, then accelerated suddenly, and then deftly smashed the ball past Pepe's attack.
Then he shot a low shot into Sporting Gijon's goal...
Facing the short stature of Ledson, who was as agile as a rabbit, the veteran Hierro worked hard to defend, but in terms of turning and reaction speed, the veteran was indeed half a beat too slow, and Ledson broke in easily.
Pepe's replacement was not untimely, but the Brazilian forward's skills with his feet are commendable. He smashed the ball past Pepe in a small space, and then shot. The entire breakthrough and shooting action were seamlessly connected.
When he saw this scene, the corner of Li Ang's mouth twitched.
For this game, he was not inadequately prepared, and the condition of his own players was not bad. He considered almost everything that could be considered, but he really couldn't control the personal performance of the opponent's players...
Who would have thought that this short player named Ledson was in such excellent condition. Just after the opening game, he made continuous passes in the penalty area and then scored a goal!
This caught him off guard.
The game has just begun, and the Brazilian's activity must arouse his vigilance, and he must respond effectively.
***********
After scoring the goal, Ledson ran and roared to celebrate the goal. This Brazilian player, who is 175cm tall and weighs only 63kg. He is thin and nicknamed Bamboo, but now he has created a feat. This is his first UEFA Cup goal this season.
10 goals!
The entire Alvalade Stadium burst into huge cheers, and Sporting Lisbon fans shouted in unison: Let Ledson solve it!
This is a slogan specially created by Sporting Lisbon fans for Ledson. In the Alvalade stadium, a slogan "Solved by Ledson" hangs - solving the team with goals.
All difficulties encountered.
The number of goals Ledson has scored this season is staggering. In the league, he scored 25 goals for Sporting Lisbon. In the UEFA Cup, Ledson penetrated the opponent's goal 9 times. He is affectionately called "Lightweight" by the fans.
"Golden Boot", of course, now 10 goals.
In fact, Europe is now talking about the story of French player Franck Ribery of Sporting Gijon. This story of the treasure that was dug up from the construction site by Li Ang can be said to have become a household name as Ribery became famous this season.
, however, because the Portuguese Super League does not receive much attention, Ledson's story is not a household name: before he played professional football, he was a supermarket tallyman. This short man - only 1.75 meters tall, often needs
Only by working hard can I organize the shopping shelves in the supermarket. This supermarket clerk has been working hard like this for nearly five years in Brazil.
Before coming to Lisbon, Ledson could only work odd jobs in Brazil. He played football with teenagers on the streets of his hometown, and later joined an insignificant amateur club, but Ledson had to find another way to make a living.
Looking for a job. He was already 19 years old at the time and still dreamed of becoming a professional player.
Now, in May 2005, Ledson da Silva Muniz has become the "Golden Boot Striker" Ledson. He still goes to the supermarket, but he doesn't climb up the shopping rack to grab the top row for customers.
Children's toys. In Portuguese supermarkets, Ledson is the most popular football star - a player who almost single-handedly sent Sporting Lisbon to the UEFA Cup final that night. Helped Ledson complete the first
A career leap came to Prudentopolis in the Brazilian state of ParanĂ¡. From here he moved to Coritiba and later to Flamengo.
In Brazil and Portugal, his ability was doubted by his club because he was relatively short and weighed only 63 kilograms. But Ledson quickly won everyone over with his speed and excellent ball-dripping skills.
respect. His dazzling skills reflect his outstanding ability: he skimmed the turf like a civet cat and made a decisive blow. People always discovered inadvertently that this player was a "late bloomer": he was
He officially became a professional player at the age of 24. In two and a half seasons in Brazil, he contributed 29 goals. From the summer of 2003 to the present, he has scored 40 goals in the league. And, if he had not scored many times
Falling into the opponent's offside trap, he could have scored more goals. This also reflects Ledson's football experience as a boy. Frequent offsides prove that he has not received a traditional and solid football education. However, this does not mean that he has not received a traditional and solid football education.
There is no unique way to deal with this, because many referees simply cannot keep up with his unpredictable start.
In this lost ball, we can see that the Brazilian player's superb foot skills and civet-like start are at ease in the small penalty area.
***********
Sporting Lisbon people were very excited, they were leading 1-0. Lisbon's celebration was a little timed out, and referee Merkel had to remind the host players to pay attention to the time.
However, Li Ang took advantage of this moment and first called Hierro to the sidelines to explain the defensive problems exposed in the loss of the ball. His response was to ask Carlos to focus on 'harassing' Ledson. Then, he
He called Ribery to the sidelines again.
"Frank." Li Ang put his arms around Ribery's neck, "We are behind now."
Ribery nodded.
"The team needs you to step up." Li Ang pointed to the court, "The opponent's No. 31 Ledson is very active on the right, and I need you to put pressure on Lisbon on the left!"
"Confuse them?" Ribery asked immediately.
"That's right. Just to confuse them!" Li Ang laughed, "I like this word."
"Leave it to me, boss." Ribery said, patting his chest. In the Sporting Gijon team, in addition to Mata and Carlos and several other players that Li Ang has brought with him from the B team, it is Ribery.
He always insisted on calling him 'boss'. The French 'Scarface' felt that this was the treatment of a direct descendant and he was proud of it.
"Do you know what the Lisbon people call you?" Li Ang said suddenly.
"What?"
"They call you 'Leedson of Gijon'." Leon said, winking.
Ribery's eyes suddenly widened, and the scars on his face looked terrifying.
"Asshole!" Ribery cursed, "Why didn't that guy call Ribery of Lisbon?"
"Go!" Li Angxu kicked Ribery and sent him back to the court. Judging from Ribery's reaction, there was no need for him to say anything more. This kid must be high-spirited and roaring now.
.
Banderas came over and looked at Leon, with an expression that seemed to say 'Leedson of Gijon'? Why haven't I heard of it? The French boy really has this nickname in Lisbon.
Li Ang ignored the surprised expression of his assistant. Shi Shiran returned to the coaching bench and sat down, even crossing his legs... He wanted to use this relaxed posture to send a signal to his disciples: It was just a dropped ball, no big deal, everything
