Chapter 117: Dragon! Dragon

Chapter 117: Dragon! Dragon...

"Hey, calm down, y'all!"

Before the referee came up, Muller came over to persuade them. He spoke English and Jiang Yuan could understand him.

In the end, with the joint persuasion of players from both teams, Jiang Yuan and Indi finally stopped arguing.

Quaresma glared at Indi, who, under pressure, had no choice but to walk up and high-five Jiang Yuan: "Let's play first, and we can talk about any problems later, okay?"

Jiang Yuan nodded: "I have no objection, provided that you stop taking walks. This is not good for the team."

After saying that, the two finally separated.

Neves and Casemiro breathed a sigh of relief: "Jiang, we all thought you two were going to fight, luckily!"

Jiang Yuan shook his head: "Don't be too happy too soon"

Casemiro widened his eyes and asked in confusion: "What does this mean?"

“I have to talk to him after the game.”

Jiang Yuan fiddled with his fist. The two men were about the same height, so if they really fought, Jiang Yuan thought he had a 4% chance of winning.

Stop talking, just do it!
"..."

Neves and Casemiro looked at each other after hearing this. It seems that they will have a lot of work to do after the game.

"It looks like the conflict between Jiang Yuan and Indy has been temporarily resolved. From the scene, Jiang Yuan seems to be somewhat dissatisfied with Indy's passive attitude towards the game, but now it is still game time, and the two decided to put the quarrel aside for the time being."

"There was news before that Jiang Yuan had a conflict with U19 coach Rose Hemiel. Although both of them denied it, judging from the conflict between him and Indi on the field today, whether it is true or not, Jiang Yuan needs to control his temper."

"Okay, Bayern's corner kick... Corner kick! Casemiro headed the ball out and Quaresma got the second point. This was Porto's counterattack opportunity, but the strange thing was that Quaresma, who got the ball, didn't rush forward."

"The high-intensity running in the first 70 minutes seemed to be a bit too much for the 30-year-old Portuguese star. Quaresma only took a few steps before passing the ball to Martinez. Lopetegui may need to consider a substitution on the right."

……

The game continued, and after Neves and Jiang Yuan came on as substitutes, Porto's offense was obviously a level stronger.

Of course, this does not mean that Porto's substitutes are stronger than the starting players, but Jiang Yuan and Neves, as young players, are bolder and more daring to take action.

The audience in the live broadcast room are now arguing, and the topic of the argument must be the conflict between Jiang Yuan and Indi just now.

[Fuck, I didn’t realize Xiao Jiang still has such a bad temper. When he was scolding Yindi just now, his face was almost touching Yindi]

[From this perspective, the previous media reports that Jiang Yuan quarreled with the U19 coach are most likely true. Jiang Yuan is still too young. If he does this, he will put himself in danger. The reporters will definitely make things difficult for him.]

[What does this have to do with being young? Yindi was indeed taking a walk. What's wrong with Xiao Jiang scolding him? Isn't he allowed to scold? ]

[To be honest, I stand with Jiang Yuan in this wave. I can see that Xiao Jiang really wants to win this game]

[It's hard to describe Porto's performance today. The two substitutes played better than the starters. The team's veterans have lost their confidence. Porto still relies too much on Danilo and Sandro.]

[According to this statement, if Jiang Yuan really scolded the U19 coach, it should also be related to the game]

[Hey, my friend above, now that you mentioned this, I remembered that the day before the news of the locker room conflict broke out, Porto U19 played against Anderlecht U19. Porto was originally at a disadvantage, but as soon as they entered the locker room, Porto suddenly became fierce.]

[Indeed, I watched that game as well. Jiang Yuan obviously had more possession of the ball during the overtime, and Porto's offense suddenly intensified. The cause of the conflict was probably that Jiang Yuan asked the coach for the right to fire, but this is just speculation and it's hard to say]

……

Fans are not fools. A group of people gathered under a post to chat, and in just a few minutes they could guess the parts that were not reported by the media.

The incident between Jiang Yuan and Hemiel is no exception. After all, news about players contradicting their coaches is quite popular, especially since Jiang Yuan now has the expectations of countless domestic fans.

Back to the game, Jiang Yuan and captain Martinez made a cross-run on the left side of the center.

"Give me!"

Jiang Yuan reached out for the ball, and Casemiro in the backcourt made a precise pass, and the ball came to Jiang Yuan's feet.

Standing in front of Jiang Yuan were Bayern's two central defenders, Boateng and Badstuber.

These are two central defenders with rich defensive experience, especially Boateng, who is not easily fooled at all.

But Jiang Yuan didn't prepare to make any move at all, and he kicked the ball directly between Boateng and Badstuber.

"Hey, what is Jiang Yuan doing? Is he passing the ball to Neuer? Jiang Yuan seems to have made a mistake?"

"Wait, Jiang Yuan starts to speed up, he goes directly between Bayern's two central defenders, my god, what kind of kick is this, Jiang Yuan enters the penalty area, Boateng reaches out and pulls Jiang Yuan down, this is a penalty, the referee points to the penalty spot, this is a penalty for Porto!!!"

"Oh my god, Jiang Yuan, who came on as a substitute, did a great job. In the 83rd minute, when the team was trailing 5-0, he used his speed to beat Boateng and won a penalty for the team." "Although this penalty could not change the outcome of the game, it also proved Jiang Yuan's strength and his attitude towards the game when the score was behind."

He Wei shouted passionately, almost shouting out of the TV screen.

"Jiang, well done!"

Quaresma pulled Jiang Yuan up from the ground. This was the closest Porto came to scoring in the second half.

"Beep!"

The referee blew the whistle, and captain Martinez scored the penalty kick. Porto scored a goal in the 84th minute. The score of the second leg was 5:1, and the total score of Porto and Bayern was 4:7.

Martinez, who scored the goal, did not celebrate, but stood stupidly on the penalty spot. This goal was of no help to Porto at the moment, but at this time an abrupt figure appeared in the picture.

Jiang Yuan bypassed Neuer and fished the ball out of Bayern's goal. He pointed his finger at the center circle and shouted, "Go back quickly!"

Even though he knew he had no chance of winning the game, Jiang Yuan was determined to finish the match with all his might.

The reason is simple: no one knows when Jiang Yuan will play in the Champions League next time!

"We can see that Porto's players returned to their own half at Jiang Yuan's urging. It is hard to imagine that Jiang Yuan and Neves, who came on as substitutes in the 69th minute, were the two players with the strongest desire to perform for Porto."

Considering the current situation on the field, He Wei did not use "desire to win". Needless to say, everyone understands that the best Porto can do now is to save some face in the last 10 minutes of the game.

"Dear fans, we have known since childhood that attitude determines everything. Romain Rolland once said that there is only one true heroism in the world, and that is to still love life after seeing the truth of life. Knowing that the defeat is inevitable, Jiang Yuan is still trying his best to attack. I think this game not only allows us to see Jiang Yuan's wonderful passing and scoring, but also allows us to see the heroic spirit in Jiang Yuan's heart that is unique to competitive sports."

……

"Beep beep beep"

"The referee blew the whistle to end the game. Porto's fierce attack in the last 8 minutes resulted in 6 shots and 2 shots on target, but unfortunately no goals were scored."

"The dragon of the Iberian Peninsula finally fell in Bavaria, Germany, but the downed dragon did not lower his head. Porto lost while standing."

"I believe that many fans in the live broadcast room are like me, who have been following Jiang Yuan since he joined Porto U17. From now on, Jiang Yuan has exceeded the fans' expectations of him. All we can do is to support this young Chinese player behind the scenes."

"Okay, fans watching TV, the live broadcast of the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final between Bayern and Porto has come to an end. Thank you for watching..."

The voices of the two commentators in the live broadcast room disappeared, but the picture did not jump.

Because now it's time for Bayern to celebrate.

"FC Bayern forever number one"

"You can call us the champions of the world"

"FC Bayern forever number one"

The fans sang Bayern's team song "Forever No.1", which means "Forever No." in Chinese. Bayern's performance in the second round was just like what the lyrics said - we stand out!
Some are happy and some are sad. The away fans' stands at the Allianz Arena are now silent, with tables and chairs scattered around.

Of course, this does not mean that the away tickets for the game were not sold out, but that many Porto fans left early after the first half.

"Jiang, are you okay?"

Quaresma walked over and put a hand on Jiang Yuan's shoulder.

"Hey--"

Jiang Yuan exhaled, glanced at Muller and others who were cheering and celebrating on the sidelines, then glanced at the silent away fans in the stands, and said, "If I say something good, I'm not normal. It must be uncomfortable to lose a game."

Quaresma consoled him: "Jiang, I can't accept this score either, but you and Carlos are different from me. You are still young and will have opportunities in the future."

Jiang Yuan smiled bitterly: "This is the Champions League. Let alone the knockout stage, it's hard to even get into the group stage!"

Jiang Yuan was telling the truth. The European Champions League is the world's highest technical and tactical football competition, and only the best 32 teams can participate in this competition every year.

If Jiang Yuan stays in Porto, based on Porto's current second place in the Portuguese Super League, they can only participate in the Champions League qualifiers. It is still unknown whether they can play in the Champions League.

Hearing this, Quaresma's tone suddenly became serious: "I have seen many geniuses, but compared to you, they are not geniuses. Jiang, you have to understand that you are God's miracle."
