Football on the ground: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him Chapter 358 Next, its time to witness the coronation of another European Triple Crown champion!
Chapter 358 Next, its time to witness the coronation of another European Triple Crown champion!
However, things soon took a turn.
Because FIFA announced that it will continue to appoint Ganduer to officiate the Korea-Japan Confederations Cup.
I don't care at all about Gandour's black whistle in the UEFA Cup.
Even...it seems that he appreciates Gandur's talent.
Like sleepiness meeting a pillow, Ximen Qing discovered Pan Jinlian... and hit it off!
Barcelona fans cried with joy and rushed to tell each other: "You see, FIFA still understands football! If you UEFA don't use Gandour, FIFA will!"
Some Barcelona fans even said: "An excellent referee like Ganduer should not only referee the Confederations Cup, but even the World Cup in Korea and Japan!"
"Sporting Lisbon's appeal is completely useless. Deng Kai, a clown, has been jumping around for so long, but he still can't stop Gandur from going higher and higher!"
In this regard, Deng Kai once again sent his blessings and praised the Spanish team: "If one day you encounter a game where Gandur is the referee, please remember that this is what the Barcelona fans fought for you."
The official account of the Spanish team did not respond to this. They posted a question mark and did not understand what Deng Kai was talking about.
But Guardiola has hidden concerns about this.
He thought of last summer's European Cup.
This...could it be...that the Spanish team wouldn't be so unlucky?
Deng Kai did not explain much about the Spanish team's questions.
If you haven't encountered some things, you won't believe anything I say.
You will understand when you meet it.
But often when you understand, it's too late.
…
The European football world is in a state of turmoil, and this time of black whistle has lasted for less than half a month.
After the dust settled on this incident, the time has come to May 8th.
Sporting Lisbon experienced four games during the period including the Portuguese Cup semi-finals.
They were all victorious and their momentum was overwhelming.
Especially in the Portuguese Cup semi-finals, Sporting Lisbon eliminated its city rival Benfica, one of the three giants of the Portuguese Super League.
The latter is not in good form this season, currently ranked sixth in the Portuguese Super League, and it is difficult to change.
It won't even qualify for the UEFA Cup next season.
However, fans generally believe that the loss in the Portuguese Cup semi-finals was due to the news that Benfica wanted to buy Simao, which affected the morale of the army.
Fans boycotted the team's purchase of Simao.
Barcelona's only reliable buyer also withdrew its offer, so they had to seriously consider the ultra-low offers from Liverpool and Manchester United.
In the league, Porto also ushered in a winning streak, with a one-point advantage over Sporting Lisbon to top the standings.
Next, Porto and Sporting Lisbon will face off in the 33rd round of the league and the Portuguese Cup final!
These two games will basically determine the ownership of the two championship trophies of the Portuguese Super League and the Portuguese Cup!
For a time, the Portuguese media focused on Porto and Sporting Lisbon.
On the eve of the 33rd round of the Portuguese Super League, Porto star Jardel was interviewed.
He is very optimistic about the next two games.
Because his league goals have exceeded the 40 mark.
This is also the first time in his career that he has scored 40 league goals in a single season!
He set a new record.
However, Sporting Lisbon's young striker Cristiano Ronaldo, who has been pressing hard against Jardel in the league, currently has "only" 29 goals, ranking second in the Portuguese Super League's scoring list.
With only the last two games of the league left, it is impossible for Cristiano Ronaldo to catch up with Jardel unless he averages five goals per game and Jardel does not score.
Similarly, Cristiano Ronaldo's Portuguese Super League Silver Boots are also very stable, because the Portuguese Super League Bronze Boots also have seven fewer goals than Ronaldo, making it almost impossible to catch up.
Jardel: "We are in very good shape this season. We have a very good midfielder. With constant support, I can beat any defense, even if the opponent is Inter Milan or Barcelona."
Obviously, Jardel's words were in response to Sporting Lisbon's miracle in the European war this season.
They lost to Belgian giant Anderlecht in the Champions League qualifying round this season and fell into the UEFA Cup.
Then they unfortunately encountered the powerful Premier League giant Liverpool in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup and were eliminated.
Sporting Lisbon's opponent in the UEFA Cup final is Liverpool.
Therefore, to a certain extent, defeating Sporting Lisbon is equivalent to revenge against a Liverpool-level team for Porto.
Let's make an appointment, it's revenge against Liverpool.
"Porto is determined to regain the league title! Sporting Lisbon should focus all its energy on the UEFA Cup!"
"The opportunity for the European war is even more rare. Sporting Lisbon should not make mistakes! We must give up something appropriately!"
"There is no essential difference between first and second in the league, the Portuguese Cup is insignificant, what are Sporting Lisbon still hesitating about?"
"If I were Triguera, I would avoid the two games against Porto and fully prepare for the UEFA Cup final!"
Major media outlets have made suggestions for Sporting Lisbon.
Of course, there are also media outlets with other opinions.
For example, Jiang Yunzhu expressed his opinion in the "Record": "Porto lost to Liverpool in the UEFA Cup. If Sporting Lisbon cannot cross the threshold of Porto, it will lose three points before the battle against Liverpool without fighting spirit!"
"The league championship is Portugal's highest honor. Sporting Lisbon has not tasted the taste of the Portuguese Super League championship in 19 years. This time there is nothing to give up!"
"First fight for the league, and then decide whether to go all out for the Portuguese Cup depending on the situation. Come on Sporting Lisbon!"
This interview was wildly reposted by Sporting Lisbon fans. Domestic fans want the league championship more than the UEFA Cup.
It is said that there are three giants in the Portuguese Super League, but the champions in the past 19 years, except for Boavista last year, are all Porto and Benfica.
Sporting Lisbon fans have long been unable to hold their heads up.
How could they give up this opportunity?
But Jiang Yunzhu’s news was reposted by Deng Kai and raised a question mark.
Many Portuguese media praised Deng Kai, saying that finally a sensible Sporting Lisbon player stood up.
"Porto Daily" spoke highly of Deng Kai: "As an outstanding midfielder emerging from the Portuguese Super League this season, Deng Kai's mind is definitely very smart. His doubts about Jiang Yunzhu show that Sporting Lisbon has already made a decision
It’s a choice.”
"Sporting Lisbon is likely to adopt a half-rotation or even full-rotation strategy in the league and Portuguese Cup finals. We support this adjustment for the UEFA Cup and wish Sporting Lisbon a wonderful game with Liverpool.
Bring the UEFA Cup back to Portugal!"
Obviously, Porto is satisfied with Sporting Lisbon's proactive concession.
But soon, Deng Kai explained his question mark and wrote on his social account: "Why should it depend on the situation to decide whether to go all out for the Portuguese Cup? Sporting Lisbon will not give up any championship trophy!"
“Next, it’s time to witness the crowning of another European Triple Crown winner!”
