Glory's goal came near the end of the first half.

Not long after the game resumed, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the half.

With a glorious goal, Sao Paulo drew 1-1 at home to Corinthians.

The equaliser at the last moment was a big morale boost for the whole team in São Paulo.

You can see it from the changes in the stands.

The Sao Paulo fans in the stands, who had fallen silent since Kaka's injury, were now shouting and singing again towards the end of the first half, which lasted until halftime.

Glory followed his teammates off the court.

He was tapped on the shoulder from behind.

He turned his head to look and saw that it was the captain of the team, goalkeeper Cheney.

"Well done, Rong." Just like the first time Glory saw Cheney, he said to Glory with a smile. "Do a good job and try to stay in the first team!"

Glory wanted to beat Lucas to what he told him, the gamble between him and Kleber.

If you can't stay in the first team, a few thousand dollars will fly!

He nodded: "Of course, captain, I will definitely stay in the first team!" ”

Cheney was also very happy to see him so scrappy and confident.

If there were more young people like Rong Rong in the team, I'm afraid this time would not be so embarrassing......

The dressing room is still the dressing room of the first team, but the atmosphere that Rongguang feels when he walks in is a little different from before.

Baptista greeted him warmly: "Come in, Rong!" ”

Fabiano, who was not smiling, smiled and patted his head, revealing a little intimacy. "Well done, rookie."

The glorious goal gave Sao Paulo hope and confidence to win the game at home, after the dark clouds that had hung over everyone's heads were dispelled with Kaka's injury. The atmosphere in the dressing room was naturally much better.

Kaka didn't come out and he was given a physiotherapy massage by Sanchez in the back room of the dressing room, and his injury in the first half was due to a thigh muscle strain.

Reinaldo was still a little angry when he saw that Glory was being welcomed by everyone, and he snorted.

However, unlike before, this time there were fewer and fewer people in his camp.

Even Rico came up to congratulate Rongguang, but his expression was a little unnatural.

He was ashamed of his previous performance.

Fearing being ostracized by the first-team players, he alienated his friends. He felt as if he had betrayed the glory.

Rongguang insisted on his own path so strongly, and finally won everyone's appreciation and recognition after the end, but what about himself? I even thought about making him give up......

Rico thinks he's so bad to treat his friends like this!

Just as he was feeling sorry for himself, Glory slapped him the back, startling him.

He looked at Glory again, but Glory had already walked to the front of the cabinet where he belonged, sat down and threw off his sneakers, took off his socks, and lay on the stool on all fours.

He knew the meaning of this slap of glory...... He doesn't mind his estrangement!

He let go of his baggage and rejoiced.

He wanted to find Glory, but he grinned as soon as he moved...... My back hurts!

Rong's that is really not light!

※※※

Osvaldo Oliveira walked in, and at a glance he saw the glory of sitting on a stool very ungracedly.

I took the risk of putting him on the field and finally got the reward.

"Well done, lad." He said to Glory with a straight face.

Although it is a straight face, the meaning of appreciation is obvious.

Glory has a big smile and can be recognized by the manager, which means that he is more and more likely to stay in the first team! Thousands of dollars are coming in hand!

"I should have done it, sir!"

He straightened his posture, raised his head, and replied loudly.

Osvaldo nodded and got down to business, talking about what the team should do in the second half.

Now the score is a draw, but Osvaldo is not willing to settle for a draw.

When the team's morale is high, if you don't pursue victory, then you deserve to be fired!

"I know you're in high spirits right now, and you can't wait to get out of the city and tear Corinthians to shreds. But I want to warn you. Even though we equalised, the situation was still not good for us. ”

As a manager, you have to stay calm at all times. While the players were still excited about the equaliser at the end of the game, he was out of that mood and was starting to think about what to do in the second half.

He finally made a decision.

"In the second half we are going to continue to let Corinthians press us!"

As soon as these words came out, the players in the locker room were stunned.

They looked at the manager with incredible eyes.

Osvaldo Oliveira was surprised to know that they would be confused, but he was sure that he had made the right choice.

Glory's goal was the most powerful proof of his idea.

That is, this Sao Paulo team is now more suitable for defensive counter-attack.

Although this is not necessarily the popular football that everyone likes.

But for the sake of results, you have to defend and counterattack.

It stands to reason that Sao Paulo should not play this tactic on their home turf.

Especially derby battles like the "Majestic Derby".

São Paulo is facing strong opponents Corinthians on their home turf, and if they play defensive counter-attacks, isn't that tantamount to admitting their weakness and incompetence in front of their opponents?

In Brazil, it is more advocating offensive football and artistic football.

Except for the southern state of Grand Rivers Sur.

This state is dominated by European immigrants, especially German and Italian. The state's style of football, even Gremio and the international team are known for their defensive style. In 1975, Internacional won the Brazilian National League, relying on defense.

In the southeast of Brazil and in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro in the east, the style of football here tends to be more offensive and artistic.

This is the most representative of Brazilian football, which is what we all call "samba football".

Therefore, when playing against a team of Corinthians' level, Osvaldo Oliveira began to think about counter-attacking defense, and I have to say that he was very bold.

Just like when he decided to let Glory play after Kaka's injury, he was bold......

Ignoring the surprised looks of his players, Osvaldo began to explain to them what team needed to do this.

'We equalised, but overall we are weaker than Corinthians at the moment and you have to see that and be aware of the situation. Corinthians are in a full lineup, what about us? Kaka is injured and although Rong goes up and scores a goal, he is just a newbie. ”

Glory grinned.

Osvaldo noticed his expression, so he asked, "Rong, do you know how to organize an attack?" Do you know what to do when facing a tight opposition in the middle? Can you disrupt the opposition's defence in tight areas with the ball alone? ”

Rong Guang was speechless after a series of questions, although he was indignant, but there was really no way to refute the manager.

'In the absence of Ricardinho and Kaka, we don't have anyone to organise the attack and that's our weakness. So if we were to fight a positional battle with Corinthians, our offensive would definitely go to a dead end. We don't have to give up our best weapons and choose what we are not good at. And our most powerful weapon is ......."

Osvaldo glanced at Glory and found that he was still there, unconvinced, and thought to himself funny - what a lovely newbie!

But his face was still expressionless and unmoving.

He said with a straight face: "Rong." ”

"Huh?" Suddenly hearing the manager calling his name, Rong Guang was stunned for a moment, he didn't know what was wrong with Lu Dao - he didn't hear Osvaldo at all.

The rest of the team members also looked at the glory, some were surprised, some were smiling.

"Our greatest weapon is you, Rong." Osvaldo repeated.

Being commented on by the head coach in front of the whole team, Rongguang was very excited, and a bright smile appeared on his face again. Scratching his head and being a little embarrassed: "Ha Lu Ha, hehe...... hehe"

Osvaldo withdrew his gaze from Rong Guang and continued, "Rong Speed is the only weapon we can rely on now. So we have to give full play to this advantage of him. Let Corinthians press us down, that's it. Corinthians had a good situation in the first half, but they were scored by a counterattack by Rong. I guess they won't give up. That's just right, we're just going to get them to press on it. When they're all pressing, there's a big space behind them, just like the ball in the first half, and that's when you play to your speed advantage. ”

Glory smashed his fist into his palm: "Look at it, sir! ”

Osvaldo nodded: "In the second half, we contracted the defense, and Luis and Rong were cruising in front of them, waiting for the opportunity to counterattack. If you have the ball at your feet, pass the football to the open area, not to Young's feet, but to pass it in front of him and let him rush up. This time, Louis. He turned to Fabiano again. Don't get lost again. I need you to outflank the door. After the breakthrough, Rong will pass the football to you......"

"I can also shoot and score......" Rong Guang hurriedly declared.

Assistant coach Mauro glared at him next to him: "Either listen to the head coach or be replaced!" ”

This move is really nilly to Glory.

As soon as he heard this, the glory wilted.

Many of the people in the locker room couldn't help but laugh when they saw this scene - although this kid is arrogant at times, he is also cute at times...... Such a simple threat restrained him, haha!

Osvaldo also felt funny in his heart. In order not to discourage Glory's enthusiasm, after Mauro gave Glory a stick, he gave another candy: "You can't shoot skillfully now, Rong." After the game, we will give you a special shooting practice, and when you learn it, you will be able to shoot in the game. But before that, your job is to assist. ”

As soon as I heard that there was still hope in the future, the glory immediately came back again.

"No problem!"

Fabiano grinned next to him - what a deception!

※※※

Meanwhile, in Corinthians' dressing room, their head coach Geninho got the information of the Sao Paulo goalscorer – a lot of commentators and journalists know it, and it's no secret that if they can get it, Geninho will certainly be able to get it.

Looking at the information given to him by his assistant, Geninho's hand holding the paper trembled slightly!

Because he found out that his team was almost crushed by this damn rookie!

I only joined the São Paulo youth team a little more than a month ago, starting with basic training. What does this mean? It means that he has not been exposed to decent football training before this, he is a complete newcomer! It's even more virgin than a virgin!

He was called up to the first team four days ago because there were too many injured players in the Sao Paulo first team, which meant that the glory had come to make up the numbers.

And now the rookie who made up the numbers blasted Corinthians' goals open in the game, equalized the score, and almost pushed Corinthians to a dead end!

If your team really loses the game because of such a Chinese rookie, it will be a great shame!

Thinking of this, Geninho raised the paper in his hand and said to the Corinthians in a very angry voice: "Is anyone interested in the number 33 who scored our goal?" ”

He said this and the players in the dressing room all looked up at the manager.

Not interested, that's fake.

Out of nowhere, a number 33, lightning fast, seized what wasn't supposed to be a chance, and then blasted open the Corinthians goal to help Sao Paulo equalise. Under his unstoppable sprint, the whole Corinthians were in disarray!

Those famous and battle-hardened stars have completely become foils in front of this fresh face!

From the moment the whistle blew at the end of the first half, until now, the Corinthians players have been talking about "what is that number 33".

This person, whom no one knows, is like a layer of fog that no one can see.

Now that the manager says that, it's clear that he knows what to say.

"Would you believe me if I said that the person who embarrassed you was a rookie who had only been playing football for a little over a month?"

As soon as Geninho's words came out, there was a sound of inhalation in the locker room.

"It can't be!"

"Are you kidding, sir?"

"But this joke is not funny at all......"

Some panicked, others incredulous, and others dismissive.

But no matter what, no one believes it.

Geninho said in a cold tone, "I'm sorry, guys, it's true. The 33rd is from China, who only joined the São Paulo youth team a little more than a month ago, and he has not played a single official game in the youth team, and has been doing basic training...... That is, Wanpeta, Cesar, Luciano, and Doni...... You've been humiliated by a junior brother! ”

Hearing Geninho say this, the faces of the Corinthians who were named were all unpleasant, and the others also looked at them with complicated eyes.

They really didn't expect that this fast horse, which was so frightened that they were at a loss, would actually ...... A rookie?!

They thought it might be a super-rookie from São Paulo or something.

Then their hearts will feel better.

Now they find out that the reality is so cruel......

They have a sense of annoyance.

Which of them is not a professional player who has been famous for a long time? Wanpeta is an international player for the Brazilian national team – not the kind of fringe player. even made a nobody, a rookie newcomer, play around!

I can't swallow this breath.

Not only these guys, but the other Corinthians were also surprised. I didn't expect them to be almost defeated by such a kid.

Jeninho saw everyone's expressions, and he knew that his purpose had been achieved.

In this game, he was definitely unwilling to take away a point like this.

In the Rio-São Paulo tournament last season, São Paulo beat 2-1 at Corinthians' home stadium. In last season's São Paulo state league, São Paulo beat Corinthians 3-1 at home. Also in last year's Havelange Cup, also known as the Brazilian National League, São Paulo also beat Corinthians.

Throughout last season, Sao Paulo and Corinthians won all of their matches.

This is unbearable for the old powerhouse Corinthians.

They must take revenge.

This season is the best opportunity to do so.

With the advantage in the first half, Corinthians were forced to draw by Sao Paulo, and no one was reconciled.

First of all, of course, it is necessary to arouse the fighting spirit of the players.

As long as the players' morale is restored, everything is fine. That's why he deliberately announced Rongguang's true identity - not a mysterious genius master, but a real beginner rookie.

Seeing that the morale of the players has not only recovered, but continues to rise, Jeninho is satisfied.

He believes that with the pressure in the second half, Corinthians can definitely beat Sao Paulo.

What does São Paulo have on his side?

Nothing!

Scoring a goal is still a beginner who relies on luck to get in, and if you let that kid do it again, can he still score?

Geninho didn't believe it at all.

He demanded that in the second half, the team continue to press the Sao Paulo goal, as they did in the first half, and try to score another goal not long after the start of the second half.

"Our momentum is so good, they just scored a goal by luck, are you willing to be held to a draw by them? No! Never! We didn't come here to take away a draw! ”
