Chapter 160 Fire Dragon Showdown [The first update with vomiting blood, begging for monthly ticket subscription! ]
In the 29th round of the Portuguese Super League, Sporting Lisbon defeated Maritimo 3-0 away with an assist and a goal from Su Dong.
Porto, playing at home, beat the newly promoted Moreirense 2-1 without any danger.
The two teams are still only one point apart, and no one wants to make a mistake easily.
…………
…………
The 30th round of the Portuguese Super League.
Sporting Lisbon will host Beiramar at home.
This is not only related to the victory or defeat of the Portuguese Super League, but also to the competition for the Portuguese Super League top scorer.
Sudong currently tops the Portuguese Super League scorer list with 19 goals. Following him is Beiramar's scorer Fary Faye, who has been in pretty good form recently.
At the beginning of the first half, Su Dong was very active and frequently planned offensives. Ronnie assisted Quaresma to score a goal.
But at the beginning of the second half, Farri Faye equalized the score for Beiramar, just two minutes into the game.
In the 62nd minute, with the help of Quaresma's cross from the right, Sudong shot with his left foot from the back post to expand the score for Sporting Lisbon again.
In the end, Sporting Lisbon narrowly beat Beiramar 2-1 at home.
Thanks to the goals he scored in the game, Su Dong continued to lead the Portuguese Super League scorer list with 20 goals.
At the same time, Sudong is also the youngest player in the history of the Portuguese Super League to score more than 20 goals in a single league season.
This attracted strong attention from the Portuguese and European media.
It is quite difficult for an eighteen-year-old young player to score more than twenty goals, even in the second-tier Portuguese Super League. No one doubts the strength and potential shown by Su Dong.
…
In the same round, Porto reversed the score of 2-1 against Kobuyingla University away from home.
In the 35th minute of the first half, Cobuyingla University defender Raul Oliveira scored the first goal, but in the second half, Deco was in great form, first assisting Dellei to score a goal, and then scoring himself.
Thanks to Deco's pass and shot, Porto reversed the opponent 2-1 and won three more points.
Anyone can see that the race for the Portuguese Super League title this season has entered a white-hot stage.
Porto was only leading by one point, while Sporting Lisbon was catching up all the way.
Although the gap between the two sides widened at one point during the chase, it was quickly narrowed.
Now, at the final stage of the league, Porto missed the qualification for the UEFA Cup final and is fully focused on the Portuguese Super League.
After the match against Kobe Bryant University, head coach Mourinho said in an interview with the media that Porto will win all the next four games of this season.
"We will win the Portuguese Super League championship trophy this season at the Dragon Stadium!"
Mourinho's resounding promise was unanimously recognized by Porto players.
Captain Jorge Costa, Deco, Carvalho and other stars also came forward to accept media interviews and expressed their determination and confidence in winning the Portuguese Super League.
Sporting Lisbon also refused to give in.
In an interview with the media, technical director Aurelio Pereira said that the club has offered a huge bonus for winning the UEFA Cup and Portuguese Super League double, and hopes that everyone in the team can work together to win these two championship trophies.
Captain Barbosa also said that the team is currently in a very stable state.
"We will win every game that comes our way!"
Su Dong also said in an interview with the Morning Post, "Porto will definitely make mistakes. Even if they don't make mistakes themselves, we will definitely force them to make mistakes at the Dragon Stadium. The final victory and the championship will definitely belong to us Sporting Lisbon!"
Ronaldo, Quaresma and others also came out to express their opinions.
As the championship drama approached its climax, players from both teams were cheering themselves on while attacking their opponents.
There is only one championship trophy, but everyone is willing to fight for it! …………
…………
In the 31st round of the Portuguese Super League, Sporting Lisbon faced its city rival Benfica.
Porto's game started a day earlier than Sporting Lisbon. They beat Santa Clara 5-0 at home with two goals from Delray, Postiga, Deco and Maniche.
This undoubtedly puts all the pressure on Sporting Lisbon, which will participate in the game one day later.
The Green Lions started the game very aggressively.
The attacking lineup led by Sudon, Ronaldo and Quaresma launched a fierce attack on Benfica.
Just ten minutes into the game, Sudong assisted Quaresma to score a goal.
In the 33rd minute, Ronnie assisted Joao Pinto to score, extending the score to 2-0.
But in the second half, the situation took a turn for the better.
Spanish coach Camacho launched a desperate attack and scored a goal in the 73rd minute.
Afterwards, no matter how hard Benfica attacked, Sporting Lisbon struggled to hold on.
In the end, Sporting Lisbon beat Benfica 2-1 thanks to goals from Quaresma and Joao Pinto.
Both teams played well in the first half, but Sporting Lisbon's performance in the second half was not satisfactory.
…………
…………
The 32nd round of the Portuguese Super League.
In terms of schedule, Porto is still two hours ahead of Sporting Lisbon.
In the first half, Mourinho's team almost perfectly repeated the previous round's slaughter, taking a 3-0 lead with goals from Jankauskas, Capucho and Paulinho Santos.
This made everyone feel as if they were witnessing another crazy victory.
Unexpectedly, the situation took a turn for the better in the second half.
Wazim, coached by Jose Costa, launched a fierce attack on Porto and took advantage of Carvalho's absence to seize two corner kicks and score two goals.
The situation was once precarious, but Porto finally stabilized its position.
Porto won 3-2 in a very dangerous way.
…
Coincidentally, Sporting Lisbon traveled a long distance to Madeira Island to challenge the Portuguese National Team away, and their performance was also not ideal.
The two teams were tied at 0-0 in the first half and neither team was in good form.
After the second half, in the 60th minute, Quaresma relied on his personal ability to dribble the ball into the penalty area from the right and volleyed the ball with the outside of his foot, scoring the first goal for Sporting Lisbon.
But in the 84th minute, Adriano equalized the score for Portugal.
This once plunged Sporting Lisbon into despair.
If this game ends in a draw, the hope of winning the league title will become very slim.
Just when the team's morale was unstable and Boloni's confidence was shaken and he was at a loss, Su Dong stepped forward again.
He scored a crucial goal for Sporting Lisbon with a sudden long shot from outside the penalty area, breaking through the goal guarded by Marcelo Cruz.
Two to one!
Sporting Lisbon finally won the precious three points again thanks to Su Dong's key goal.
With only two rounds left in the league, the goal gap between Su Dong and Farry Faye has widened to three goals. Theoretically, there is almost no possibility of being caught up or even reversed.
Although there is still hope, most media basically believe that Sudong will become the top scorer of the Portuguese Super League this season, and he will also become the youngest Golden Boot winner in the history of the Portuguese Super League.
…………
…………
The 33rd round of the Portuguese Super League.
This time, Sporting Lisbon played the game earlier than Porto and also played at home.
Bologna hopes to establish an advantage early on like Porto and leave all the pressure of the game to its competitors, but he forgets one thing, that is, Porto can do this based on their strong strength.
Under the fierce attack of Sporting Lisbon, Setubal, who played away, defended steadily and counterattacked. In the 13th minute, they seized a quick counterattack opportunity, and striker Meyang broke the goal of Sporting Lisbon.
Su Dong was also closely guarded by the opponent in this game, but he did not act alone blindly. Instead, he used himself to pull the opponent's defense line and create opportunities for his teammates.
Just two minutes after conceding the goal, it was Sudong who received the ball with his back to goal and passed it back to Joao Pinto, who then passed it across to an empty space, where Albertini made a long-range shot and equalized the score for Sporting Lisbon.
But the good times did not last long. In the 24th minute, Meyang made a quick counterattack and assisted his teammate to score, increasing the score again. Two minutes later, it was still Sudong's plan. Ronnie dribbled the ball from the left and assisted Joao Pinto to score, equalizing the score again.
The two teams attacked and defended, and the game was very exciting.
But in the 76th minute of the second half, Su Dong again received the ball with his back to the goal and turned to assist Quaresma, who cut into the right side of the penalty area and calmly shot the ball into the goal, increasing the score again.
In the end, Sporting Lisbon narrowly beat Setubal 3-2 at home.
…
After Bologna's plan failed to work out, Mourinho's away game against Braga was also very dangerous.
In the 37th minute of the first half, Balosson's long shot penetrated Porto's goal.
It was not until the beginning of the second half that Porto took advantage of a quick counterattack opportunity. Emmanuel assisted Postiga to score and equalize the score for Porto.
After that, the two teams played in a stalemate and no one was able to score again.
As time was running out and the game was about to end in a draw, Deco stepped up at the crucial moment.
The Brazilian midfielder suddenly dribbled the ball in front of the penalty area, was fouled by the opponent, and fell in the penalty area.
The referee awarded a penalty without hesitation.
Braga players protested, but the referee was very sure that it was an undisputed penalty.
Deco took the penalty kick himself and scored it in one go.
Two to one!
Porto reversed Braga away and won three more points!
…
After 33 rounds of the league, Porto still leads Sporting Lisbon by one point.
In the final round, Sporting Lisbon will challenge Porto away.
This has undoubtedly become the most eye-catching focus of this season's Portuguese Super League, as it will determine the winner of this season's Portuguese Super League championship.
Porto's lead was reduced from seven points to just one point now, and the situation is precarious.
But at the Dragon Stadium, Porto has only lost one game this season, which was the first leg of the UEFA Cup quarter-finals to the Greek team Panathinaikos. Apart from that, Porto has never lost again.
Can Sporting Lisbon break Porto's unbeaten record at home in the Portuguese Super League? Can Su Dong avenge the humiliation of being frozen out in the Dragon Stadium in the UEFA Cup semi-final?
The media and fans are looking forward to it.
