Brazilian veteran Emerson is the core of Madeira United's defense.
He once played as the main player in the Portuguese Super League team, but as he got older and the team was relegated, he gradually declined, and finally came to Madeira United to retire.
This is the fate of many professional players.
But after all, he was once a main player in the Portuguese Super League. He had a real fight with Porto, Benfica and other wealthy teams on the court. Even if he came to Madeira United to fight
The Portuguese B-Southern Group is more of a dimensionality reduction blow for him.
This is also the reason why Madeira United can temporarily top the standings this season.
A 31-year-old Brazilian veteran and a 22-year-old youngster. This pair of central defenders is the best-performing combination in the Portuguese second division this season. Among them, the youngster Fabio Hervos comes from the Porto youth training.
The two have been working together for more than four months and have already established a good tacit understanding and have done their homework before the game.
In an away game against Sporting CP, the most threatening player is the opponent's young center Su Dong.
This 17-year-old youngster is a rookie who has risen rapidly this season and has established himself as the main center in one fell swoop. This is very common in low-level leagues, where players rise quickly but also sink quickly.
Perhaps Su Dong, like most rookies, will be touted for a period of time and then fall quickly.
…
After the game started, Madeira United, playing away from home, took the lead.
This team can occupy the top spot because of their defense. Their own strength is not very good. It is not as good as a relegated Portuguese team like Orhanesan. When playing against Sporting CP, the scene is also 50-50.
situation.
In the first ten minutes, no one was able to beat anyone, and no one was able to create any opportunities.
Su Dong ran very actively, but couldn't get the ball out of the midfield. He mostly retreated to receive transition passes.
It makes him look less threatening.
But at the 13th minute, after receiving the ball on the right, Balu tried to rush forward along the right, but the opponent's left back was already on guard and stood up in time.
Balu just passed the center line, dunked the ball back, and passed it crosswise to the center.
Canelas stepped in from behind, got ahead of the defensive player, poked the ball to the left, and dribbled the ball forward diagonally. The defensive player kept an eye on him, trying to force Canelas to pass the ball back.
…
Su Dong was cruising in front.
He first wanted to connect with Balu, but after seeing Balu dribbling the ball across the center line, he did not start the ball and instead passed it across.
So Su Dong followed and walked towards the middle road.
The opponent's two central defenders, one old and one young, always sandwiched him in the middle and did not give him any chance to easily get the ball.
But just when Canelas took the lead to catch Ballu's cross and dribbled the ball diagonally to the left, Sudong noticed a gesture from the opponent's two central defenders.
The old central defender reached behind him and waved to the young No. 4 central defender, but the No. 4 central defender shouted for no reason.
After hearing the shout, the old central defender was obviously moving to the left.
Suddenly, an idea came to Su Dong's mind.
The old central defender needs to move the defense line to the left, and at the same time position his position further forward, so that the young central defender can pay attention to follow the movement and ensure that Su Dong can be controlled in time.
Almost at the same time, Su Dong thought of a possibility.
Almost without thinking, he followed the old central defender, ran two steps to the left, and called out to Canelas.
The two moved at the same time. Not only was the old central defender Emerson a little surprised, but the young central defender Elworth was even a little panicked. After Canelas heard Su Dong's shout and reacted, he took advantage of the situation and moved towards his diagonal.
A diagonal pass was sent from the front.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, and no one at the scene even knew what was happening.
They just saw that after Su Dong shouted, he suddenly started next to Madeira United's central defender Emerson and quickly crossed behind him, and Canelas also sent a diagonal pass with understanding.
The ball quickly fell to the left side of the penalty area, and Su Dong rushed over.
Madeira United's goalkeeper is the 32-year-old Brazilian veteran Adriano Facchini, who once played for Santos. He reacts very quickly and quickly gives up the goal before everyone else.
Although he hadn't received the ball yet, Su Dong saw the goalkeeper attack, noticed his running route and gestures, and immediately knew the opponent's thoughts well.
He wanted to force me to the left so that the fourth central defender could return to the goal in time.
This is also the most reasonable choice for Su Dong at the moment, because he originally sprints to the left.
But after understanding the other person's thoughts, there was a voice in his subconscious telling Su Dong, don't do this!
The moment he received the ball, Su Dong suddenly stopped. After catching the football with his right foot, he gently moved it behind him, stabilized his body, and turned around quickly.
This sudden change shocked goalkeeper Facchini.
He originally thought that Su Dong would dribble the ball to the left, but unexpectedly he suddenly stopped and turned around.
In panic, Facchini also stopped suddenly, but after all, he responded hastily and his body failed to stabilize his center of gravity in time and lost his balance. Su Dong moved the ball behind him. Although it was a bit big, he turned around and quickly chased after it.
Go up and shoot directly with your right foot.
The ball went into the unguarded empty goal at extremely high speed!
The fourth central defender, Elworth, had just caught up to the edge of the small penalty area and was unable to do anything at all.
"Wow!!!!"
After scoring the goal, Su Dong was so excited that he jumped up high on the spot and clenched his right hand vigorously and waved it.
He clearly realized that Romario's [Wolf of the Zone] helped him not only with running on the court, but also with a keen sense of the situation and guessing the opponent's psychology.
All the fans in the stadium were cheering, and many people were shouting Su Dong's name.
Although there were only two thousand people, they shouted in unison and the momentum was quite loud.
Su Dong excitedly rushed to the sidelines and celebrated his goal in front of the fans.
One to zero!

"pretty!"
Like the excited Arena fans around him, Benfica's Vieira also stood up and shouted excitedly.
"The movement of this ball is very smart and the handling is very sophisticated. He doesn't look like a seventeen-year-old boy at all, but looks like an old fox who has been playing football for decades." Vieira praised repeatedly.
Abel Silva kept nodding.
This goal seems to be quite ordinary and not particularly beautiful, but there are many details that need to be processed. If even one link is not handled properly, the goal will be impossible to score.
"He has improved again." Abel praised. "Compared to the last time I watched him play, he has made significant progress. This kid is improving in almost every game, and it is surprising every time."
Vieira nodded.
He used to watch Su Dong's performance from the video, but the quality of the picture was very touching and gave him a sense of alienation. But when he watched the game live, he was really affected.
He is 1.9 meters tall and he rushes so fast, he is like a supersonic tank.
Especially his last kick, it was so powerful and so refreshing!
In Vieira's impression, this kind of shot has only been seen by one superstar, and that is the God of War Batistuta.
"No wonder they all call him the Little God of War!" Vieira laughed.
Abel smiled bitterly and shook his head, "He doesn't seem to like this nickname."
"Oh why?"
"He feels that he is not small."
Vieira was stunned for a moment, then reacted and laughed loudly, "What an ambitious boy, I like him!"

…………
After Su Dong scored the first goal, Madeira United started to counterattack.
Sporting CP will have a one-goal lead, and when they see their opponents counterattack, they will naturally seek stability.
The situation has changed again.
Su Dong was still at the front, and the opponent was obviously more wary of him than at the beginning. The two central defenders followed him closely, not giving him the slightest chance.
Even a few times, Su Dong ran out of space, but after catching the ball, there was no teammate around him to follow up in time, which made it difficult for him to create a threat and seemed a little lonely.
Everyone can see that Su Dong's strength has surpassed that of his teammates, and the players in the competitive club can no longer keep up with Su Dong's pace, which makes everyone in the stands further feel Su Dong's progress.
You know, a few months ago, Su Dong was still struggling in this team, but now, he has stood out from the crowd.
If this continues, how high can he develop?
…
As the saying goes, if you can only commit a thief in a thousand days, how can you prevent a thief in a thousand days?
When Sudong kept trying to find opportunities, Madeira United could not hold on in the end.
Not long after the start of the second half, Madeira United tried to attack, but Atlético goalkeeper Martello decisively abandoned the goal. After picking up the ball in mid-air, he suddenly made a big kick and passed the ball directly to the frontcourt.
Su Dong shrewdly saw Martello's intention. At the moment of the long pass, he was almost on the same position as Elworth.
They both started at the same time, but Su Dong was faster.
When Elworth stretched out his hand and tried to catch Su Dong, he found that his opponent had already sped away.
Su Dong, who succeeded in countering offside, caught up with the ball outside the penalty area, stopped with his right foot, and stopped the ball in front.
Goalkeeper Facchini struck outside the small penalty area. Facing Su Dong approaching with the ball, he kept guessing the opponent's intentions.
Su Dong suddenly sank his left shoulder, seemingly trying to pull the ball to the left. When Facchini stepped sideways to block it, his left foot blocked the ball back to the right, and he took advantage of the situation and fired another furious shot with his right foot.
Barty gol!
The ball was blasted into the Madeira United goal again at great speed.
Once again, Su Dong was in the opponent's penalty area, raised his fisted right hand high, turned towards his teammates who were running towards him, and roared like a lion, venting his inner excitement.
At this time, Carlos, the technical director of Belerenses, stood up excitedly in the stands.
"Sign him! You must sign him for me!"
After a pause, he seemed to be afraid of any changes, so he turned to look at Figueiredo, "Go to Gorba now and tell him that we want to sign Su Dong."
But I still feel uneasy.
"If that doesn't work, I'll go there myself."
After saying that, he left the table.
