Chapter 89 Double Champion
Beep!!!
The referee blew the whistle to end the game.
Thanks to Sudong's goal at the end of the first half, Sporting Lisbon beat Porto 1-0 and won the Portuguese Cup final, becoming the double champion of this season!
At this moment, the entire National Stadium celebrated wildly.
The coaching staff, staff and players on the bench, who had already prepared their emotions on the sidelines, rushed into the field and celebrated the goal with ecstasy.
Porto is indeed very strong, but they were ultimately unable to score against Sporting Lisbon.
Andre Cruz played a stabilizing role at the critical moment, allowing everyone to see his strong side and leaving an extremely deep impression on people.
When the whistle sounded, Su Dong breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he felt as if all the strength in his muscles was drained away. His body was even a little shaky and his legs couldn't help but tremble.
This is a symptom of being exhausted to the limit.
But Su Dong still slowly moved away and walked towards Ronnie who was sitting outside Porto's penalty area.
The kid was lying on the grass with his face down, looking as if he was too embarrassed to face the people of Lisbon.
Seeing him like this, Su Dong found it funny.
"Okay, stop pretending. Don't I know you?" Su Dong sat down next to him and laughed.
Ronnie turned his head and glared at Su Dong angrily, "Just continue to gloat over other people's misfortunes."
Su Dong laughed and asked, "Who told you to be so extravagant?"
The two of them practiced shooting together with Jardel. They had the same master, but the two apprentices they taught were completely different.
how to say?
Ronnie likes to show off and is a bit impatient. No matter if it's a good opportunity or not, as long as there is an opportunity, he will take a kick. Whether it goes in or not is another matter, he just enjoys it.
Su Dong is more rational. He will consider whether it is a good opportunity, whether there are teammates who are in a better position than him, etc.
This is true not only in shooting, but also in playing style.
Ronnie plays typical street football and likes to dribble the ball, while Su Dong pursues efficiency and practicality.
Even Jardel found it very strange. How could these two people with completely different personalities become such close friends?
"I'm telling you, Ronnie, there's something you have to do right now." Su Dong changed the subject.
"What?" Ronnie was a little surprised.
Su Dong didn't say anything, but just reached out and pulled his jersey, revealing the white vest underneath.
"The award ceremony will be held soon and we're going to hold the trophy. If a fan comes to you for a jersey, or..." Su Dong raised his eyebrows with an expression that said you know.
Of course Ronnie knew it, so he jumped up from the ground and ran away like the wind.
Su Dong couldn't help but burst into laughter behind him.
This guy has never been the type to complain.
"What's wrong with him?" Jardel walked over and pointed at Ronnie who rushed into the player tunnel like a gust of wind, and asked curiously.
"I'm in a hurry to go to the bathroom."
"Ah?" Jadel was very surprised.
I just played football for more than ten minutes and was sweating all over. Do I need to go to the bathroom now?
"Why are you looking at me? It's all your sister's fault." Su Dong also left quickly. He didn't dare to continue to entangle with Jadel.
Jadel really started to think about it.
After the game, Ronnie was in a hurry to go to the bathroom. Su Dong said that it was his sister Jordana who did it. Could it be that ...
Well, young people are just too extravagant and don’t know how to control themselves!
…
…
The best player of the Portuguese Cup final was awarded to Sporting Lisbon's defensive pillar Andre Cruz.
The Brazilian center back had a remarkable performance tonight. Although there were some flaws, his overall performance was solid.
It can be said that he played a vital role in Sporting Lisbon's final victory.
Although Su Dong also received rave reviews and scored the winning goal, he was still not as good as Andre Cruz.
Su Dong was also convinced and took the initiative to congratulate Andre Cruz.
"I really hope that you can reconsider your decision to leave." Su Dong said sincerely.
Andre Cruz decided early on to leave the team after the end of the season and return to Brazil to retire, but the club has been trying to keep him, including head coach Boloni, technical director Aurelio and others, all trying to persuade him to stay.
Cruise shrugged, seemingly unwilling to answer the question.
Not long after Ronnie took off the white vest with a love confession written on it and returned to the court, Sporting Lisbon, led by captain Barbosa, held up the Portuguese Cup trophy high on the hastily built podium!
At this moment, the entire stadium burst into applause.
The fans of Sporting Lisbon were cheering loudly, excited for the team's double championship this season.
Su Dong’s mind was also filled with prompt messages from the system [Road to the King of Football].
"Becoming the youngest starting player in the history of the Portuguese Cup final, the award for the best player is worth 100,000 points."
"Winning the Portuguese Cup final will reward the best player of the tournament worth 500,000 points."
"Scoring the winning goal in the Portuguese Cup final will earn you 500,000 points as a reward."
"Winning the Portuguese Super League and Portuguese Cup consecutively, achieving the season double championship, the reward for the best player is worth 500,000 points."
"You won the double championship in your first season and are rewarded with a star ability card. Please go to the store to redeem it."
…
Pieces of information gradually emerged in Su Dong's mind as his consciousness swept through them.
For Su Dong now, the accumulation of football king points no longer arouses much surprise and surprise in him. On the contrary, he is accumulating football king points every day, which has become more or less commonplace.
On the contrary, the star ability card is a treasure.
When the team won the Portuguese Super League championship before, Su Dong also received a star ability card. Now that he has won the Portuguese Cup and achieved the double championship in his debut season, the system has rewarded him with another one.
It can be seen that the system will only reward star ability cards at key points.
And if you use your own money to buy it, it will become more and more expensive, and it is not particularly cost-effective.
Now, he has two star ability cards on hand, but Su Dong has not yet decided whose ability to redeem.
Over the past period of time, he has been busy with preparations and competitions and has not had enough time to think about this issue. Now, he thinks that he should take advantage of the league suspension period to think about this issue carefully.
More ability, more protection!
Especially for the new season.
Jardel will still be the main force, and Nicolaj is about to return from injury. As Boloni's favorite player, facing these two powerful competitors, Su Dong can only win a place if he puts in a better performance and shows stronger strength.
He doesn't want to continue to be a substitute in the new season.
In addition, he has been at the [Ball] level for more than half a year, and now he has basically fully developed his potential. In a few days, he should be able to upgrade to the next level.
The next level is ball worker, what after that?
Su Dong was somewhat expectant and curious about the name of this strange system.
He has no plans to return home this summer.
Although the World Cup was held in East Asia and China made history by entering the World Cup finals, that had nothing to do with the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, and he had no intention of going back to join in the fun.
With that intention, he is more willing to train hard, maintain a good condition, improve his competitiveness and lay a solid foundation for the new season.
So, he is going to Madeira with Ronnie, and Nuno Cruz, his personal trainer, is also with him.
Recently, he has been preparing a summer special training plan for Su Dong.
Su Dong hopes to improve his physical confrontation ability.
As a center, without excellent physical confrontation, it is impossible to gain a foothold in the penalty area, let alone crush the opponent and dominate the entire penalty area like Jardel.
Although Su Dong is still young, he doesn't have much time left.
If he wants to snatch more playing time from Jardel and Nikulai in the new season, he must work hard to improve in the next two months, starting with his physical strength.
Thinking of this, Su Dong turned his head and looked at Ronnie and the championship trophy he held high above his head.
The moment you get it, it becomes a thing of the past.
This may sound a bit boring, but it is realistic.
…
…
When Su Dong and Ronnie held up the two championship trophies high in the stadium, Mendes sitting in the stands couldn't stop smiling.
He knew that he had made an extremely wise decision more than half a year ago.
Not only did he snatch Ronnie from Vega, but more importantly, he dug out Su Dong without anyone noticing.
This is definitely a rough gem that needs to be further polished!
At the age of seventeen, he scored the winning goal in the Portuguese Cup final. This sounds very much like Kluivert who scored the winning goal in the Champions League final at the age of eighteen!
Mendes is now extremely certain that as long as Su Dong maintains his current momentum, he will succeed. He even dares not to conclude how successful Su Dong can be.
Young players always have unlimited possibilities, don’t they?
Just when Mendes was feeling proud of himself, there was a noise coming from the aisle not far away.
Looking up, Mendes saw Sporting Lisbon's technical director Aurelio waving at him, motioning him to come over.
Anxious!
Mendes knew what was going on.
Before, Sporting Lisbon wanted to renew the contract with Sudon early on, but Mendes had been holding back because he knew very well that although he could gain some advantages by negotiating the contract renewal at that time, they would definitely not be much.
After all, the Soviet Union was just beginning to emerge at that time.
But now it's different.
So far this season, Sudon has only played five games for Sporting Lisbon, coming on as a substitute four times and playing the full game once.
Five goals and two assists in five games.
Not to mention anything else, just this piece of data is enough to attract all the Portuguese Super League teams.
In this case, if Sporting Lisbon wants to renew the contract, it must show more sincerity.
What’s more important is not only the annual salary, but also the playing time.
Mendes likes money very much, but he also knows very well that for a young man like Su Dong, making money is not the most important thing. The key is to train through more games and improve his strength.
With strength and performance, money will only increase.
In that case, why rush?
Thinking of this, Mendes stood up with a smile, straightened his suit, and walked towards Aurelio.
