293 Time is running out for Porto!(2/2)
…………
…………
After the start of the second half, Porto took the lead in launching a counterattack.
Alenichev came on to replace Mendes, Porto made changes in the midfield, and Deco had more space to move.
The Brazilian player, who has been naturalized in Portugal, began to concentrate on the attack, running non-stop, constantly looking for opportunities, and trying to pass the ball to more threatening areas.
Valencia started very solidly, especially in the midfield and backcourt.
Both Vicente and Rufete actively retreated to defend and protect the wings of the midfield, which made it difficult for Porto to create opportunities.
The most threatening thing was in the 51st minute. Valente stepped forward with an assist and passed the ball diagonally into the penalty area. He wanted to find Delle and Alberto, but Delle missed it and Alberto wanted to kick directly.
He hit the goal, but due to interference from Marchena, he missed the right kick and kicked the ball directly out of the baseline.
Four minutes later, there was another attack from the left. This time Alenichev passed the ball diagonally from the left rib into the penalty area. Under the interference of Ayala, Delle headed the ball towards the goal, but it missed the goal slightly.
Both attacks failed to create a threat, which made Mourinho on the sidelines begin to show an anxious look.
Time is running out for Porto!
The Portuguese madman hesitated, but after thinking about it for a while, he finally gritted his teeth.
Porto's second substitution!
Chapter completed!
