Chapter 127 Before the Rio Olympics

Although the honor of winning the Copa Libertadores is not comparable to the previous European Cup title, for Li Zhao, this is the highest honor of their club so far, and it is also the result of his efforts with these brothers who grew up together.

.So this sense of achievement is incomparable, and it also makes Li Zhao feel more real and proud. At this moment, he and his teammates are carrying the trophy and saluting all the fans, and they did not leave until a long time later.

"Okay, now this trophy completely belongs to us. You can touch it or take photos as much as you like." Back in the lounge, Li Zhao said with a smile.

"Although the trophy is good, it is not as exciting as a beautiful woman throwing herself into her arms! Brother Zhao, you guys had a great time killing dogs tonight. Such epic dog food can feed us single dogs to the fullest

I don’t know if my brothers will have the opportunity to enjoy similar blessings in the future when they have a partner." Hu Jinghang said suddenly.

"Lao Hu, I think kicking the ball well is the first priority. Everything else will be taken care of. Besides, how can you start a family if you don't have any achievements?" Wang Ziyi retorted.

"Okay, Old Wang, you guys are in company, so naturally you don't know how hungry a man is. Of course you are right. I used to play football just to make money and get ahead, and it was no different from those people in China.

.But since I followed Brother Zhao, I realized that people need to have higher pursuits, and football is my first career priority." Hu Jinghang said.

"I'm very happy that you think so. This is why we have to work hard. Maybe some people in the country who are not as good as you can get higher salaries for the time being, but the honors we have achieved are the envy of them.

Not coming.

But since you have mentioned this today, I can make a promise to the brothers. When you have a partner and are ready, I will try my best to satisfy you. Of course, if you go to other clubs before that, I will

There's no guarantee, just pretend I didn't say it." Li Zhaodao.

Although this is a joke between them, Li Zhao's guarantee still counts. Li Zhao, the average player, is still confident enough to keep them. After all, although the current Portuguese club is not well-known as a whole and has been established for a short time,

, there is not much difference from the real giants in other aspects. Moreover, the remuneration given by the club is not low at all, and is even extremely high among the entire South American clubs. But if someone really wants to transfer,

They won't trap themselves just because of this benefit. After all, there will always be higher pursuits waiting for them. But what will never change is the friendship they have left when they are still together.

.

The fact that the Portuguese club won the Copa Libertadores also aroused great repercussions in country C. This is not only because of Li Zhao, but also because the C nationality players in the team have always been the core

exists and plays an important role in the game. Also because of the national men's football team that has repeatedly disappointed fans of Country C, many people have placed their hopes on this Portuguese team, and even some people

They vaguely regard it as another country C national team. Fortunately, this team rarely disappoints them, and today, only two years after its establishment, it has successfully climbed to the pinnacle of South American football.

As the club's reputation further improves, various advertising sponsors are eager to join in. Although the club itself is not short of the money, it is at least a rare honor, so how can it refuse it? It's just that it is a rare honor.

It is precisely because of this that the Portuguese club attaches more importance to its own reputation and has become more stringent in various quality controls.

Gu Wei/span was also preparing for the Copa Libertadores, so the Portuguese had to send out the second tier to compete away from home in the last round of the league. In the end, they lost to Flamengo 1-2. And in the end, they lost to Flamengo 1-2.

After finishing the Copa Libertadores, the Portuguese can finally free up his hands again and focus on the next league results.

But for the brothers Li Zhao and Leonard, who will be responsible for the Rio Olympics in the summer, their remaining time can only guarantee participation in the next round of the league.

On July 31, the Portuguese team, which had been rested and adjusted, welcomed their opponent Gremio in the 17th round of the Brazilian League at home. Although their current overall strength is not considered to be at the top level in the league, they are able to compete all year round.

The team that stays in the Brazilian League and has also entered the Copa Libertadores group stage this year can indeed be regarded as an opponent that cannot be underestimated. However, it is obviously not easy to score at the Calder Stadium, let alone

Gremio is now in the middle and upper reaches in terms of points. It is a stage where there is not much demand. There is no need to choose to fight with the opponent at this time. Therefore, the coach is also prepared to only get one point in the away game.

In terms of troop formation, we chose to focus on steady defense and counterattack.

Although it is difficult to find obvious loopholes in such an opponent, the Portuguese playing at home will not just think about scoring a point. Since the opponent has chosen to focus on defense, they will naturally not let it go.

Pass this kind of opportunity to actively suppress the attack. And Gremio's own offensive ability is actually not weak. In the first half, there were several counterattacks of good quality. Although they did not directly threaten the Portuguese goal, they still

It caused a lot of trouble for the opponent's defense. Until the end of the first half, the score between the two teams remained at 0-0. At the beginning of the second half, Gremio launched a wave of

A very sharp counterattack, Gremio forward Bonanos' shot almost led to a goal, but in the end it missed the post and flew out of the baseline.

However, this was the closest Gremio came to scoring a goal. The Portuguese never gave them a better chance in subsequent games. In turn, the number of shots on the Portuguese side was nearly three times that of the opponent, and the quality

It's equally good. Among them, the Li Zhao brothers performed the hardest. With only the opportunity to participate in this league game, the two brothers naturally hope to win this game. Although they were in the first half of the game

He failed to score a goal, but he had no intention of relaxing. He firmly believed that he would find a chance to win and seize it.

Sure enough, their hard work paid off, and their unremitting efforts finally bore fruit in the 74th minute of the second half. The two brothers' wall-to-wall cooperation in the opponent's penalty area successfully tore apart the opponent's defense. Leonard did not hesitate in the face of the fleeting opening.

He directly used a shot in front of the goal to pierce the opponent's goalkeeper's door, opening the first score for the team.

Gremio, who was behind in the score, was still anxious. Naturally, they did not want to go back with a defeat. However, their coach was still very clear-headed. Although he had to shift more energy to offense, he still did a good job in defense.

It did a good job and did not expose more gaps to the opponent, so that the score was not further expanded for a period of time. However, Gremio's offense failed to work after all, and until the 86th minute before the end of the second half, this

The door was once again pried open with the cooperation of the Li Zhao brothers.

This time it was Leonard who assisted Li Zhao. Although the latter's first shot only hit the goal post, his accurate judgment of the ball's placement allowed him to catch up immediately and then grab the lead.

The defensive player completed a supplementary shot before, eventually expanding the score to 2-0. After the referee's midfield whistle, the Portuguese finally won these precious three points at home, chasing the points to just one level with the top spot.

The difference is one point, which makes this year's championship battle become anxious again.

After finishing this round of the league, the Li Zhao brothers are now preparing to start their men's football journey for the 2016 Rio Olympics. And because they are playing locally, they can rest assured and wait on their own territory.
