Porto once again fielded a 4-2-3-1 lineup in this game, with an attacking posture at the Olympic Stadium in Athens. In the face of Panashinekos' 4-5-1 defensive counter-attacking formation, the Porto players started at the referee's whistle and took advantage of the fighting passion that was plucked up by Mourinho to launch a fierce attack on Panashinekos' half, forming a siege.

Panahinaikos's defensive zone is very resilient, not in the box, but often expands the zone to prevent Porto from forming a continuous attack. This is a very clever defensive method, not passively defending, but active and aggressive, a method of defending and attacking. It seems that Panahinaikos' manager is also well aware that a goal advantage is not enough to ensure that his team will qualify for the last eight of the Europa League, and it seems that if there is an opportunity, Panahinaikos will definitely press out and fight back.

After a couple of back-to-back attempts in the opening period, Porto's attack did not work very well. In order to prevent the opponent from seizing the opportunity to counterattack, Lao Lei took the initiative to slow down the pace and carefully observed Panahinaikos's defense. You can't eat hot tofu in one bite, sometimes it's not a good thing to be fast, but slowing down can get unexpected results.

After Deco's return, the defensive pressure on Lao Lei was much less, so Porto could keep the ball under their feet as firmly as they do now, and Panashinekos pressed several times without results. Old Ray was self-centered, frequently and quickly passing back and forth to the ball, pulling Panahinaikos' defence. Although I didn't see any gaps and opportunities. Lao Lei is not depressed, because his main goal is not this. He's now taking a way of boiling frogs in warm water. While the Panahinekos defense was focusing on lateral defence, Porto took the opportunity to slowly push forward vertically.

Soon Panashinekos' defence was compressed to the edge of the box. In this place, even if the defence is very dense in front of them, Porto has no shortage of ways to break through. After Lao Ray cut forward in the middle, he got in touch with Deco, plus McCarthy, and the three of them made a continuous pass at the edge of the penalty area, leaving Panahinaikos' defenders a little helpless. In this place, they do not do rash fouls, and this season's free kick has become a new conventional weapon for him, and it has become a point for all Porto opponents to pay attention to and guard.

After attracting enough attention in the middle, Lao Lei stepped forward. Suddenly, a straight plug that didn't look at people stuffed the football into the penalty area. Maniche, who had been in ambush for a long time, suddenly accelerated forward and grabbed the ball before Panahinaikos' right wing-back. He then immediately kicked up a cross and the McCarthy and Panahinaikos defenders in the middle did not touch the football, and the ball flew to the back post. There Alenichev received the ball and volleyed it directly into the face of the incoming ball. Although in the end, Panasinaikos' goalkeeper blocked the shot out of the penalty area, Porto's shot still shocked Panasinaikos fans in a cold sweat.

The shot didn't score a goal. But it greatly boosted the morale of Porto, and the offensive gradually became fierce under the organization of Lao Lei. Panahinekos' defence was good, but with timely adjustments, Porto's attack began to threaten their goal.

In the 16th minute of the first half. Lao Lei, who has been using short passes to penetrate, suddenly made a long pass after winning the ball near the center circle. Directly to the gap between Panashinekos' centre-back and left wing-back. Alenichev, who had been well rested, was in good shape and forced an overtake on the side. Got the football before Panahinaikos' left wing-back. After that, he did not choose to pass the ball, but directly took the ball into the penalty area. Facing Panahinaikos' centre-back, Alenichev made a bold choice to split the ball in the box. Perhaps unprepared for this, Panahinaikos' central defender did not get stuck on the inside and was forced to squeeze through by Alenichev.

At this moment, Panahinekos's goal was suddenly chaotic, with McCarthy and Maniche outflanked in the penalty area, and Deco was ready to respond outside the box. And that's where Porto's attack is difficult to guard against, there are too many attacking points. After Panashinekos' defence had all retreated into the box, Alenichev handed a knockback to Deco on the edge of the box. Facing the goal, Deco stopped the ball and then hit a push shot with his feet. Deco's shot was tricky, hitting the inside of the far post and bouncing into the back of the net. At 1:0, Deco's goal brought both teams back to the same running line.

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL！！ Deco! Deco!! This is Brazil...... No, it was the first goal for the Portuguese Deco after returning from injury. I believe that such Deco can help the Portuguese national team, and those people should look at his table before making some doubtful remarks. Of course, we can't forget the wonderful breakthrough of the Russian wide knife Alenichev on the wing, and the ball in the penalty area is very exciting. "The commentators on the Porto side celebrated the goal while also cheering for Deco to join the Portuguese national team. The Porto family is the biggest supporter of Deco joining the national team in Portugal, and they believe that this man, who has been in Porto for five years, has the quality and qualification to enter the Portuguese national team.

After the goal was scored, Mourinho was also on the sidelines, looking quite excited, and kept waving his fists in celebration. The goal was more than just an equaliser, it was also a shake to the tactical execution of Panahinaikos' players on the pitch. Whether to continue to defend or press out to attack, these two different ideas will make Panashinekos players inconsistent and chaotic.

And after the start of the game, Panahinaikos did have such a situation on the field. Their head coach was naturally aware of the situation on the sidelines, and he wanted to give instructions and redefine the team's tactical thinking. However, Porto did not give him that chance and after the restart, Porto quickly got the ball back. Again the onslaught at Panahinaikos' goal. The Panahinaikos players, who were scrambling to focus on defense, simply couldn't calm down. Accept instructions from the head coach. For a while, the danger in front of the Panashinekos penalty area continued, causing the home fans in the stands to exclaim constantly.

Lao Lei also discovered this on the field. Without Mourinho's instructions, he organized Porto's players to step up the attack. In the 29th minute of the first half, Panahinaikos's players made a mistake and cleared the ball to the feet of the frontcourt Lao Lei. After Lao Lei received the unexpected ball, he quickly reacted and directly hoisted the football into the penalty area again, and McCarthy also reacted in time. Facing Lao Lei's pass, McCarthy didn't wait for the ball to land, and directly volleyed. But alas. The ball went just wide of goal and missed a chance to overtake.

“GOOOO……………… Yes! It's a shame. If this goal had been scored, Panahinaikos would have had to do it. They need at least two more goals to knock us out. It's time for Porto to have the best chance for a quick counter-attack, what a pity! ”

Although Lao Lei also felt sorry for the goal not scored, it passed quickly. He was worried that Panashinekos' defense would be as difficult as the Greek national team, but now it seems that he is overthinking. Although in the first leg of Porto's home stadium, Lao Lei saw its defense with his own eyes, but after all, what he only saw with his eyes was not as good as his actual experience. Against defensive prowess like Panahinaikos. Lao Lei is confident that they will not be able to hold on to the next 60 minutes of game.

In the 39th minute of the first half, Panashinekos' players finally calmed down under the manager's loud reminder, reunified their tactical thinking, and first held the score in the first half. However, Porto had no intention of giving them that chance. As long as they can score another goal in the first half, Porto will basically win eight percent of this game.

Amid the shrill boos of Panahinaikos fans, Old Ray stepped forward again to the edge of the box. Got Deco's ball. Panahinaikos' defenders pressed up quickly this time, when Old Ray received it. got close to him, and didn't give Lao Lei room to catch the ball and handle the ball at all. In such a situation. Lao Lei made a clever move and made the most wonderful way of passing the whole game.

Old Ray stretched out his right foot slightly forward and toed the toe of Deco's ball, and the ball rolled behind the Panahinaikos player. Immediately afterwards, Lao Lei quickly stretched out his left foot, and then buckled the football back to the right with his toes. At this time, the Panahinaikos player was turning his head to look for the football, he didn't know where the football was, and he looked panicked.

By the time he came back to his senses, Lao Lei had already bypassed him and controlled the football. At this time, Lao Lei was 30 meters away from the goal, and after taking a look at the goal, Lao Lei suddenly cast a cold arrow and hit his signature long-range shot. The range of action is small, sudden, and at the same time extremely fast. The ball flew like a cannonball out of the chamber and flew straight towards Panahinaikos' goal.

After Lao Lei shot, he felt very good, and he felt that he had this ball. The ball barely spun in the air and flew straight into the top right corner of the goal. Panahinaikos' goalkeeper did his best, but he couldn't stop the ball from flying into the top right corner. Lao Lei hit a world-wave-style heavy artillery bombardment to help Porto overtake the score.

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL！！！ Porto's specialty - Godzilla cannon, bombing Athens!! World Wave !! As a midfielder, Reima's attacking firepower is surprising. The previous excellence is surprising enough. Although last season, Reima's table in Leiria was wonderful enough. But there is no doubt that this season he has taken another big step forward in football. ”

At this time, on the field, Lao Lei got rid of his teammates and went straight to the stands of the home fans who booed loudly.

At them, the corners of his mouth curled into a wicked smile again.

Suddenly, raise your right hand and point your index finger to the sky, and your left hand to point your index finger downwards to the ground.

Then point your right index finger at your chest.

Here, in heaven and on earth, I am the king, and I am the only one!! (To be continued......)
