Chapter 799: A Tale of Two Kings (Act III: Convection)


Winter and spring are the rainy seasons in Laco, when the Atlantic breeze lands on the Iberian Peninsula from the north and "climbs" in the direction of Madrid, the highest in the central region.The southerly winds blowing from the equator also reached the northwestern part of the Iberian Peninsula at this time, and the cold and warm currents formed convection currents in the sky here, often mixed with wind and rain.In the course of a month, the rainy weather is half the way, which is a bit like the "rainy season" in China.At 8:15 p.m., both sides had warmed up and returned to the locker room.This season's Champions League dark horses have emerged, among the four semi-final teams, there is no traditional giant, and only Porto is more famous, and the other three teams, whether they are Monaco in Ligue 1, Chelsea in the Premier League, or even Deportivo La Coruna in La Liga, are all small characters in the European battlefield.So after the four teams in the semi-finals were decided, the highest ratings in the Champions League this season worried UEFA for a while.But there was something different about it.Porto are a traditional powerhouse in the Portuguese league and don't have a lot of news, but Laco is the complete opposite.As a quasi-giant club that has only risen to become a giant killer in La Liga in the past ten years, this season beat the Galaxy Fleet, Barcelona and crazy Valencia, won this season's La Liga championship and the Copa del Rey championship, and staged a civilian myth of "a poor boy marrying a princess".So when Laco struggled to climb the treble, its newsworthiness had already detonated the European football circle.After the last game, the European golden boy accused the quasi-Portuguese footballer in person, which intensified the attention of the outside world.Wang Ai's cruel words of "slings and stones" 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 "savage football", and as a contest between UEFA "gentleman's football" and many clubs' "utilitarian football".The two parties at the heart of the incident, Wang Ai and Deco, have also been used as front-page figures in many newspapers, standing opposite each other in the newspapers.As for the choice of photos, don't think about it, it's all angry.In order to make this year's Champions League interesting, in order to make the newspaper have a good sales, the European media spared no effort to incite confrontation and even hatred between the two teams, although the two sides originally had no hatred, and Laco's peaceful personality did not want to make enemies with anyone.But the last knife door incident has left Laco with no choice.What's more, this is still the Champions League, and this is still an unscrupulous opponent.Good old man also has a temper.Many newspapers expected the match to be bloodier, more ugly and more intense than the last, and there was even bold speculation in the media of neutral countries that it could stage a very ugly stadium violence.For this reason, UEFA does not dare to take it lightly, Laco is okay, those people have been in La Liga for a long time, and they don't know what the real dirt looks like.But Porto is too limitless, and the young manager Jose Mourinho has entered the eyes of many club owners.If it's ugly, it's ugly, and if you have achievements, such as singing "I believe", waving a scepter rolled up in rubles, surrounding angels stacked with banknotes, and descending on Abu in the Premier League in the posture of God.Therefore, UEFA sent their strongest referee for this match: the bald Corina!

Before the game, Corina specially found the captains of both sides to speak solemnly, asking them to play civilly and not hurt their opponents, otherwise his law enforcement will never be merciful!

However, Collina's threat only made the two sides more hidden.Even Corina can only guarantee that this game is passable on the big side, and he is helpless in the face of both sides who are desperate to overwhelm their opponents.The game unfolded in such a tense atmosphere.Wang Ai was wrapped in a coat, a raincoat on the outside, and a motorcycle helmet on his head to sit on the bench, just relying on the "rheumatism cream" on his head, he couldn't cover the rain.The wound was still a few days away from the stitches, and the most feared thing was the soaking of the rain.Of course, the sweat of the game is fine, because the salt can be disinfected.Wang Ai was surrounded by the veteran captain Fran, the striker Tristan, and everyone on the bench was tightly wrapped, even Andrade, who should not have come, but had to come to help his teammates.In his words: he was going to see with his own eyes how Deco came home crying!

I cried, and you have to cry too!

In addition to never playing in the Champions League semi-finals, the absence of Mauro's main midfielder and Andrade's main central defender forced Laco to choose a formation to shrink appropriately to protect his weakened defensive system.In addition, Deportivo is like all honest children who vile the Porto, who vilely violated him, and did not dare to look at him unless he lost his mind.It's not fear, it's shyness.The game was played as shown by both sides, with the Porto people showing a hint of guilt and more wild and confident, while Laco was a little timid.However, that's not all there is to the game.Under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of spectators, the Porto people started their last hurtful performance from the beginning, showing that they didn't care about the outside world at all, went their own way, and were more targeted.In the 22nd minute of the first half, Deco played a small trick in front of Laco's goal, trying to pass Pablo in the opposite position in a picky way, this action was very beautiful, and it did pick Pablo's back, but Pablo's reaction was fast, and he quickly turned to block Deco's pace, and Deco's performance was only halfway through.The black-faced Deco didn't say anything, but two minutes later he raised his upper arm back in the middle of the run, and his right elbow hit Pablo's face as he was chasing from behind.Wang Ai squinted and observed, and he noticed that Pablo was hit and looked at Collina, but Collina was not as good as usual on the stormy court, and he didn't notice.Pablo shook his head and said nothing to continue playing.However, Wang Ai clearly saw in the next few minutes of the game that Pablo's game form was greatly affected.It's not a problem with the brain, or an injury, or a fear, but an instinctive reaction of the body.For example, if you touch a cactus with your hand and get stung, the next time you think about it, your hand will dodge.It's the same with the body.At this moment, Wang Ai figured out Porto's tactics.They use constant hurtful actions to create physical "fear" for the Deportivo people, and the focus is not on really hurting people, but on hitting the opponent's state of play, so that the opponent's body is involuntary in the confrontation.()
