Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    For many people later, this game, as the first official confrontation between Dick and Mourinho, made many people talk about it. As the only player in the later period who could occasionally compete with Dick in terms of record, it was worthy of mention.  Mourinho, who called European coaches the last bastion against Dick, his first encounter with Dick was enough to become a legend as time passed, and the legend turned into a myth.

    However, in fact, for many people who study this game, this game does not have much value. They believe that Mourinho at this time is far from being as good as he will be in the future in terms of tactical adjustments and team formation ideas.  Although Dick's tactical qualities and ideas have begun to mature, they are limited to the lack of strength of this Dortmund team and have not shown much.

    However, for this game, it was very intense from the beginning.

    Dortmund, who took the first kick off, launched an attack. They did not advance slowly in the midfield, but quickly launched a fast attack.

    "Porto doesn't have any unknown players on the surface, but their midfield control ability is quite good We can't think that just because we are Champions League champions we can suppress our opponents in this aspect play fast breaks and beat them.  The defense, let them organize the offense slowly, what we want is speed.¡±

    Dortmund quickly passed the ball to the frontcourt. Gomez took the ball and Carvalho came up from behind. Feeling the strong pressing from behind, Gomez did not choose to turn around and break through, but passed the ball out.

    Arshavin, who followed up, did not stop the ball, but took a long shot outside the penalty area. Baia made a wonderful save. He flew sideways and blocked the ball. Ferreira immediately made a big kick to clear the ball.

    Dortmund's midfielder began to quickly return to defense. Deco was entangled by Klinger as soon as he took the ball. He did not tangle with the opponent, but raised his foot and sent a ball behind him, hoping to send a through ball to McCarthy.  .

    McCarthy started to start, but Metzelder made a beautiful back-up steal. He intercepted the ball before McCarthy got the ball, and then handed it to Borowski who retreated.

    ?? Some of the Dortmund players who pressed up just now have not come back, which allowed Borowski to quickly find the placement of the ball. He raised his foot and passed the ball to Arshavin on the right.

    Arshavin started dribbling the ball. Aranichev, the Russian compatriot who rushed from the side to stop his progress, was a step too late and failed to catch up with him. Ricardo Costa faced him bravely and Arshavin made a move.  He was trying to fake a cut with the ball, but when his center of gravity shifted, he quickly dunked the ball towards the baseline.

    Costa fought desperately to defend, but still couldn't stop Arshavin from passing the ball. The ball passed to the center. Gomez was about to follow up and shoot, but Carvalho got around first and intercepted the ball.

    "Carvalho is really a good central defender" Dick thought off the court. Porto's history of winning the championship this season was indeed not a fluke. They do have a group of outstanding players.

    It¡¯s just that when they won the Champions League, they fought hard and grew up gradually. At this time, they are far from being as strong as they will be in the future.

    Carvalho made a big-footed clearance and the ball flew towards the frontcourt. In terms of high-altitude balls, Dortmund still had a great advantage. Warnes headed the ball down in front of Del Rey, and Deco pressed Klinger from behind and almost conceded.  Klinger made a mistake, but Klinger relied on his height to protect the ball, and then passed it to Metzelder who came up to receive the ball.

    Metzelder quickly distributed the ball to the right. After Alves received the ball, he began to dribble the ball along the wing to attack. Porto's lineup is very thick in the middle, whether it is offense or defense, but it looks poor on the wings.  Some, especially on their left.

    It just so happens that Dortmund's right-side offense is very good. This is one of the reasons for Dick's confidence. Just by grasping this flaw, it is very possible to score. And with Porto's offense, if Dortmund starts to defend, they  It was also difficult to get victory from Dortmund's defense.

    When the strength is at a disadvantage, there are many ways to win. In the final analysis, it is how to take advantage of the opponent's weaknesses and play to one's own strengths. Regarding this point, Dortmund, which appears to be in the light on the surface, is actually in the dark.  Dick is familiar with this Porto team, but Mourinho has not had long to be familiar with the current Dortmund team. This is his advantage.

    Although it seems a bit unethical to bully opponents under such circumstances, Dick doesn't care that Dortmund is so strong now. He can win as many championships as possible. This is his ability, and no one can say anything.

    Alves dribbled the ball forward very quickly, while Arshavin responded beside him.??, Costinha planned to intercept Alves' progress. As soon as he came over, Alves passed the ball to Arshavin. By the time Costinha was about to return to defense, Arshavin had already accelerated and passed the ball to Arshavin.  He stayed away.

    Arshavin, who was accelerating, seemed to let the ball leave his control. Ricardo Costa planned to come up and intercept the ball, but Arshavin's speed increased a gear, and he got ahead of him and poked the ball towards the edge of the penalty area.  , the ball flew directly over, Arshavin dwarfed, rushed past Costa, then caught up with the ball, looked up at the penalty area, raised his foot and passed the ball into the penalty area!

    Carvalho followed Gomez, and Jorge Costa was filling in. When they were about to make a clearance, they found that the ball flew in a very high arc, directly crossed the middle, and then flew to the back point

    "Oops!" Mourinho's heart skipped a beat. Before he could cry out, the ball had already begun to fall. Olic, who was inserted in the back row, threw away Ferreira and rushed to make a clearance.  Before, he shook his head against the falling ball and hit the goal!

    Baea failed to make the save, and the ball had already flown into the Porto gate before he pounced!

    "The ball went in! Arshavin assisted, Olic shook his head and hit the goal! In this attack, Dortmund made full use of the offensive on both wings and broke through Porto's door! Last season's Champions League champion won the first place!"

    Seeing Olic head the ball into the gate guarded by Baia, Dick waved his fist vigorously. This goal happened to be launched from the right and scored from the left, bypassing Porto's strong defensive center.  Field, scored goals from both wingsWith such a goal, the next game will be easy to play.

    Dick is not planning to engage in a vigorous confrontation with Mourinho now. All he wants is to win this game. Since he is now in the lead, the next step is

    After seeing the players celebrating, Dick immediately made a gesture to the running back players.

    Mourinho looked at his gesture with some confusion. What changes would Dick make after taking the lead?  This made him a little confused, but soon, his doubts were answered.

    Defense!  After Dortmund took the lead, they immediately launched a defense!

    "If you have the ability, come and break our defense Although we seem to have conceded a lot of goals in the League and League Cup, that is because we have been playing fast attacks, and our defense has not suffered any losses.  Yes, and after winning the Champions League last season, our defense is still strong!" Dick smiled.

    When he saw Dortmund starting to defend, Mourinho was stunned for a moment, and then sneered.

    Dortmund¡¯s defense has indeed not declined in strength, but their goalkeeper is no longer the goalkeeper he was last season. Can this goalkeeper, who made several mistakes in the League Cup, support such a defense?  If it hadn't been for Lehmann last season, would you have dared to use that tactic in the Champions League final?  Want to intimidate us with this kind of defense?  no way!  I will not let the team press crazy and give you a chance to counterattack, but with the offensive players on the field, we are definitely capable of scoring goals!

    Dortmund's defense is indeed quite strong. The four defenders and the three midfielders in front of them have good defensive abilities. They make it difficult for Porto to find any shooting opportunities. However, Mourinho is not in a hurry because he believes  With the offensive capabilities of Deco and others, they must be able to find opportunities.

    However, as time went by, Mourinho's brow began to gradually wrinkle because Porto's offense could hardly create any opportunities, and there was not even a gap for shooting. It is not that Porto did not have good offensive players, and almost all four midfielders  Everyone has a pretty good long-range shot. In this case, they are unable to create a shooting opportunity. This shows how much pressure Dortmund creates on defense!

    Of course, to be able to do this, Dortmund players also committed a lot of fouls. They gave full play to their physical advantages and used back and forth running and confrontation to block Porto's offense. Although Porto's players have poor confrontation ability,  Poor, but under such pressure, he couldn't even find a chance to take a long shot!

    Instead, nearly thirty minutes into the game, Dortmund almost scored again with a counterattack. Alves passed the ball directly from the backcourt to the left. Olic got the ball in front of Ferreira, and then raised the ball.  The ball was passed to the center with his foot. Arshavin followed up and shot from a long distance. The ball missed the goal post and flew out of the baseline, shocking Baiya into a cold sweat!

    Two minutes later, Borowski successfully intercepted the ball in the midfield and suddenly chose to dribble forward. After attracting the attention of the opponent's players, he passed the ball to Arshavin. Arshavin broke through with the ball.?To Olic, Olic sent a through ball. Gomez, who broke into the penalty area, received the ball at a very small angle and then turned and shot. The ball hit the side net.

    Dortmund almost scored twice with counterattacks. Porto's offense began to become more cautious. It was not until the 37th minute that Porto completed the first shot of the game. Del Rey received Deco's shot.  After the pass was passed back, Maniche, who followed up, took a long shot from 20 meters away from the goal. The ball passed the crossbar.

    This was Porto¡¯s only shot in the entire first half.

    When the whistle sounded at the end of the first half, Mourinho frowned and walked into the player tunnel. If the offensive problem cannot be solved, then Porto may not change much in the second half. They can only  Pray that you will have better luck and create more opportunities

    Mourinho is not willing to do this kind of thing where he places all his hopes on luck. Like Dick, he is more accustomed to keeping everything in his own hands instead of relying on illusory luck.

    ¡°There must be a way¡­¡± Mourinho thought to himself as he walked away.
