Because Leonard's registration as a player was late, he could only miss the first two group matches of the Libertadores Cup. Leonard didn't care, he also needed time to integrate into the team, and he usually spent time with the players

Training. If everything goes well, the best time to play will be in the third game.

After the new season comes, it is inevitable that some people will leave and some will come in. Somewhat surprisingly, Moises and Moises left unexpectedly. Among them, Moises the eldest finally chose to retire due to his age and sharp decline in competitive status, and Moises the eldest.

Seth transferred to the domestic Shandong Luneng team after the window opened.

However, the two new defenders introduced by the Portuguese are even more powerful and have effectively filled the defense vacancy after their departure. One of them is Gil from Corinthians, and the other is Jorge from Flamengo.

, they formed a new defense line with Rodrigo Cayo and Diego.

This time, the Portuguese took an ordinary international flight to Santiago.

This does not mean that his own aircraft does not have that capability. In order to accommodate the aircraft, Li Ruolan also specially created a special area around the new base. However, the procedures for this kind of international flights will be more troublesome.

So in addition to playing in Brazil's domestic leagues, when traveling to other countries and regions, you still have to follow the old rules.

On February 16, the Portuguese embarked on a journey to Santiago. As the largest city and capital of Chile and the fourth largest city in South America, Santiago is less prosperous than São Paulo, but it also has its own uniqueness.

Here, the cityscape is beautiful and colorful, with palm trees dancing all year round.

The most famous one is Santa Lucia Hill. It can be said that the entire urban area of ​​Santiago developed around this mountain in history. But Santa Lucia Hill is not so much a mountain as it is a building based on the mountain.

, an exquisite and unique garden. There is a dark red palace-style gate at the entrance at the foot of the mountain, and nearby stands a statue of a hero in the Indian anti-colonial war.

However, Li Zhao and the others did not have much time to appreciate the beautiful scenery here. After enjoying the scenery along the way, they returned to the hotel. On the morning of the next day, all the Portuguese went to the Colo-Colo team in advance.

Conducting field acclimatization training at the David Arellano Monument Stadium at home.

"Ziyi, the training results this holiday are very good! Your efforts are in vain." Li Zhao couldn't help but said with joy when he saw Ziyi's stable performance.

"That's natural. Shooting now won't trouble me anymore." Wang Ziyi responded with confidence, and at the same time, he recalled the scene during the holiday training in front of his eyes.

During this holiday, when everyone else left the club, Wang Ziyi chose to stay and practice more quietly. He wanted to make further progress in a short period of time.

Thousands of non-stop shooting exercises every day are not in vain. After Li Zhao returned and added some Cuju skills to the training, he also became interested in Cuju and would take time to play every day.

A few times. Not to mention, playing Cuju well can indeed promote ball control in some aspects.

In addition, he thought of a new training method, which is to add a hole like a Cuju goal at a certain distance in front of the goal. The ball must pass through the hole before entering the goal. Although it increases the difficulty, it still

It can more effectively improve the accuracy of shooting. Now he has been able to achieve sixty-seven out of ten. Although he is not satisfied yet, he has made rapid progress. Although he cannot play arcs with better technical content.

But after the accuracy is improved and his own powerful shot is added, it will definitely become a nightmare for the opponent's goalkeeper.

After Li Zhao saw his training method, he praised him greatly and promoted it in the team. Of course, when it was Li Zhao's turn to experiment, he further increased the difficulty. He would talk about the location of the hole non-stop.

He made adjustments and tried tricky exercises at different positions and angles. In the end, he was still not satisfied, so Li Zhao even increased the number of holes to two. He needed to pass through these two holes continuously before entering the door to count, and there was a gap between the two holes.

There is also a certain distance that needs to be traversed in an arc. No one in the team has faced such a challenge.

Of course, this is not completely correct, at least Ronaldinho can do it. But what he is better at is technical things. If he was at his peak in this aspect, he might be able to compete with Li Zhao. This is also from another aspect.

It proves how abnormal Li Zhao's strength is now.

"Although our strength has improved a step further, we still need to adjust. This first game since the new year is an away game. We must not relax mentally. We must be especially careful about Esteban in the Colo-Colo team.

·Paredes and Humberto Suazo are not fuel-efficient people.

But no matter what, this is what our defenders need to do well. I will not adjust the overall tactics just because of one or two people. At least their strength is not enough that I need to treat them specially for this." Hiddink said to the players.

After the training came to an end, they gathered together and emphasized the tactical arrangements again.

Hiddink said that Paredes and Suazo are indeed very good. The former is the main center of the Chilean national team. When he first joined the national team in 2006, he scored 5 goals in 11 games. Among the clubs,

He also scored a lot of goals. After winning the top scorer of the Chilean League in 2009, he also occupied the top scorer rankings for many years.

Although the latter is not as famous as the former, he is also a powerful forward. Although he is not tall, he is strong and has a very strong impact. In 2006, when he first joined Colo-Colo, he scored 52 points in 54 games.

The terrifying record of scoring goals has been hailed as the new "ball lightning".

The clash between the two teams finally started at 10 o'clock in the evening the next day. Most of the stands in the David Arellano Monument Stadium were filled with Colo-Colo fans, dragons wearing unique headscarves and clothes.

Although the members of the Shenfan Club were at a disadvantage as a whole, they tenaciously occupied a small area like warriors fighting against the enemy and played their own banner to cheer up the Portuguese players who were present.

Hiddink's lineup is still his usual 4-3-3 formation, and he must strive to attack even on the road.

The goalkeeper position is undisputed by Dyna.

The back line from left to back is Diego, Gil, Rodrigo Cayo and Jorge.

The midfielder is a combination of Ronaldinho, Li Zhao and Hu Jinghang, with Li Zhao positioned further forward.

The frontcourt is composed of Gabriel Javier, Wang Ziyi and Harik as a three-man partnership. Wang Ziyi is used as a complete center for the first time.

After the game started, the Colo-Colo team relied on their home field advantage to launch a wave of continuous and rapid offensive in the first ten minutes, but they were all blocked by the Portuguese defense.

Paredes had a threatening attack in the 5th minute. He passed the defensive player in the Portuguese penalty area and shot. Thanks to Dana's timely reaction, he blocked the ball.

Suazo also had a wonderful shot in the 8th minute, and the ball finally missed the post and went out of the baseline.

During this period of time, the Portuguese team did not give up and started to attack the opponent. After the opponent's offensive was suspended, it was their time to counterattack, but the opponent's defense was also tenacious.

In the 13th minute, Li Zhao quickly intervened with Harik. The latter ran long distance and deceived the opponent's goalkeeper into making an early save with a fake move. However, he was about to succeed but accidentally kicked the ball into the goalkeeper's outstretched leg.

The ball was ejected after the ball was hit. Although she quickly followed up with a follow-up shot, the angle was lost and she just hit the ball on the side net, missing an excellent opportunity to take the lead.

In the 17th minute, the Portuguese got a corner kick opportunity. Ronaldinho took a corner kick on the right side. Wang Ziyi jumped high and fought for the ball. Although he headed the ball into the goal, the goal was invalid because he was judged to have collided with the goalkeeper.

In the 21st minute, the Portuguese got another chance. Li Zhao used a series of continuous disguised moves to pass two opposing defenders and broke into the Colo-Colo team's penalty area and shot. Although the opponent's goalkeeper tried his best to save, he still couldn't stop the ball from moving forward. The key is

At that moment, it was the opponent's defender who made the contribution, seemingly clearing the ball near the goal line.

However, several Portuguese players saw it clearly and signaled that the ball had crossed the goal kick and should be considered a goal, but the referee on duty ignored it. Afterwards, through slow-motion replay on TV, it was found that the ball was in the

The goal line was indeed crossed at that moment, so I appealed to the referee again, but it was rejected and the original decision was upheld.

"It's okay. Maybe he thinks the ball didn't touch the net, so it doesn't count. Then we'll work harder. I don't believe a ball kicked in like this can be blown out by him." It's obviously unwise to argue with the referee.

, so Li Zhao, as the captain, can only use this reason to appease the team members.

Moreover, this kind of home whistle is not an accidental phenomenon. It will still exist even when returning to one's home court. Generally, as long as the referee is not too biased towards one side, it will be settled in the end.

It’s just that the Portuguese team, which missed three excellent opportunities in a row, was still too optimistic. Just two minutes later, the Colo-Colo team scored. This goal was scored by Suazo assisting Chaandia. The defensive player obviously

Because of the previous situation, I was a little distracted. However, looking at the slow motion, the ball was suspected of being offside, but the referee turned a blind eye again this time.

"It's really annoying. How can we play this? If the opponent has a problem, let it go, but we will hold on to it." Wang Ziyi said and was about to rush up to argue with the referee, but was pulled back by Li Zhao, and then he

Several key players were called together.

"Everyone, please don't go. The other party may be hoping that we will make a mistake. Wouldn't this be an advantage for them in vain?" Li Zhao said.

"Then let this unfair thing happen? I have never suffered such a loss after playing football for so many years." Ronaldinho was equally angry, but he also knew that what Li Zhao said was the truth.

"Our goal is to score points, not to quarrel. Of course, if we really want to quarrel, I believe we can beat each other, but that would be boring.

Originally I thought they were so powerful, but now it seems like they are nothing more than that. As long as we don't make mistakes, we can completely suppress them on the field. It's only a matter of time before we score. Don't worry, it's just a ball. The rhythm is certain.
