Chapter 218 The Story of Two Kings (Act 3: Convection)
Winter and spring are the rainy seasons in Laco. The Atlantic sea breeze lands on the Iberian Peninsula from the north and "climbs" toward Madrid, the highest point in the center. The southerly wind blowing from the equator also reaches Iberia at this time.
In the northwest of the Asian Peninsula, cold currents and warm currents form convection in the sky here, and wind and rain often occur. In a month, half of the weather rains, which is a bit like the "Meiyu" season in China.
At 8:15 pm, both sides had finished warming up and returned to the locker room.
There are dark horses in the Champions League this season. Among the four semi-final teams, there is not a traditional giant. Only Porto is more famous. The other three teams are Monaco in Ligue 1, Chelsea in the Premier League, and even
Deportivo La Coruna in La Liga are juniors in the European battlefield.
Therefore, after the four teams in the semi-finals were decided, the highest ratings of this season's Champions League once made UEFA very worried. But this game was a little different. Porto is a traditional strong team in the Portuguese league, and the news topic is not
High, but Depor is the complete opposite. As a quasi-rich club that has only emerged as a giant killer in La Liga in the past ten years, this season it defeated the Galaxy, Barcelona and crazy Valencia to win this season's La Liga championship and the King's Cup championship.
A civilian myth of "a poor boy marrying a princess" has been staged. Therefore, when Depor strives to climb the Triple Crown, its news value has detonated the European football circle.
After the last game, the European golden boy criticized the prospective Portuguese Footballer in person, which aggravated the attention of the outside world. The harsh words of "slings and stones" that Wang Ai put down at that time were also extremely rare.
In this way, the game was interpreted by the outside world as a contest between "civilized football" and "barbaric football", and as a contest between UEFA's "gentleman's football" and the "utilitarian football" of many clubs. The two parties at the core of the incident
, Wang Ai and Deke were also featured on the front pages of many newspapers, standing opposite each other in the newspapers. As for the choice of photos, forget about it, they both looked angry.
In order to make this year's Champions League interesting and to make newspapers sell well, the European media spared no effort to incite confrontation and even hatred between the two teams. Although there was no hatred between the two sides, Deportivo's peaceful character did not want to make enemies with anyone.
The last stabbing incident left Depor with no choice. What's more, this is still the Champions League, and this is an unscrupulous opponent.
A good old man also has a temper.
Many newspapers predict that this game will be bloodier, uglier, and more intense than the last one. Some media in neutral countries even boldly speculated that very ugly stadium violence may be staged. For this reason, UEFA does not dare to take it easy.
Looking at it, Depor is okay. Those people have been in La Liga for a long time and they don’t know what real filth is like. But Porto has no lower limit. The young boss Jose Mourinho
The coach has also entered the field of vision of many club owners.
As long as it is ugly, it is enough to achieve results, such as singing "I believe", waving a scepter rolled up in rubles, surrounded by angels made of folded banknotes, and coming to the Premier League in the form of God, Abramovich.
Therefore, UEFA sent their strongest referee for this game: Bald Collina!
Before the game, Collina went to the captains of both teams to give a serious speech, asking them to play in a civilized manner and not to hurt their opponents, otherwise his law enforcement would never be merciful!
However, Collina's threat only made the two sides more concealed. Even Collina could only guarantee that this game would be passable in appearance. Facing both sides who were desperate to overwhelm their opponents, he
There is nothing you can do.
The game started in such a tense atmosphere.
Wang Ai was sitting on the bench wrapped in a coat, a raincoat, and a motorcycle helmet on his head. The "rheumatism ointment" on his head alone could not block the rain. The wound was about to be stitched.
There are still a few days left, and what I fear most is the soaking in rain. Of course, the sweat from the competition is fine, because the salt can disinfect.
Next to Wang Ai are veteran captain Fran and forward Tristan. Everyone on the bench is tightly wrapped, including Andrade who shouldn't be here but insists on helping his teammates.
What he said: He wanted to see with his own eyes how Deco went home crying!
I cried, and you have to cry too!
Deportivo's players on the field were a little nervous and a little unable to let go. In addition to having never played in the Champions League semi-finals, which made them feel uneasy, Mauro, the main midfielder, and Andrade, the main central defender
Deportivo's absence forced Deportivo to choose to shrink its formation appropriately to protect its much weakened defensive system.
In addition, towards the Porto man who despicably violated him, Deportivo, like all honest children, would not dare to look at him unless he lost his mind. This was not fear, but shyness.
The scene of the game was as shown by both sides. Porto felt a little guilty but acted more wild and confident, while Deportivo was a little timid.
However, this is not all of the game. Under the gaze of tens of thousands of spectators, the Porto people started their last hurtful performance from the beginning, showing that they did not care about external evaluation at all, and had an attitude of going their own way, and they were richer
Targeted.
In the 22nd minute of the first half, Deco played a little trick in front of Depor's goal, trying to get past Pablo with a shot. This move was very beautiful, and it did hit Pablo's back, but
Pablo reacted quickly and quickly turned around to block Deco's progress. Deco's performance was only halfway through. The black-faced Deco didn't say anything, but two minutes later he raised his upper arm backwards and raised his right hand while running.
The elbow hit Pablo in the face who was chasing him from behind.
Wang Ai squinted his eyes and observed. He noticed that Pablo looked towards Collina after being hit, but Collina was on the windy and rainy court and his vision was not as good as usual, so he didn't notice. Pablo shook his head.
, continued the game without saying anything. However, Wang Ai clearly saw in the next few minutes of the game that Pablo's game state was greatly affected.
This is not a brain problem, or injury, or fear, but an instinctive reaction of the body. For example, after touching a cactus with your hand and being stung, no matter what you think next time, your hand will do the same thing.
Dodge action.
The same goes for the body.
At this moment, Wang Ai figured out Porto's tactics. They were using constant hurting actions to create physical "fear" for the Deportivo people. The focus was not on real hurting, but on affecting the opponent's game state.
, so that the opponent's body can't help but fight.
