In a blink of an eye, more than a week passed, and Porto welcomed his first warm-up match against the Bundesliga powerhouse Bochum.

In the past week, Gao Xiaodong discovered that Porto was nominally the local gang and the South American gang, but in fact the local gang is also divided into Portuguese natives, EU players and African descendants, the South American gang is divided into Argentine gang, Brazilian gang and other South American players. Gao Xiaodong, an Asian gang, belongs to no gang.

At first, Gao Xiaodong was planning to not rely on any gang, but then he thought that if no gang was relying on any gang, it would be a disadvantage alone. Although Emmanur, the boss of the local gang, was old and could not play the main force, he took good care of Gao Xiaodong, so Gao Xiaodong was closer to the local gang, especially Emmanur and Romanian player Sapnaru.

Gao Xiaodong was not all alienated from the South American gang. After that wrestling, Hulk Hulk had a good impression of Gao Xiaodong and the two were very close.

Brazilian goalkeeper Helton had no objection to this, but Fernando was not very happy. He and Gao Xiaodong were competitors back then and were suppressed by Gao Xiaodong's light. Fernando was very unhappy, but Hulk was straight and had a clear distinction between love and hate, so Fernando dared not say much.

Gao Xiaodong is flexible and knows how to do things. His skills are not that good, but he is very comprehensive and highly valued by the chairman. In just over a week, Gao Xiaodong already has Hulk, a friend he has been able to talk to. Many players and many assistant coaches have the same favor as Fernando, Rodriguez and the Argentine gang, because of their respective reasons, are resentful about Gao Xiaodong.

Porto has left many people and many newcomers this season. The main game against Bochum is to get in touch with the team and find the most suitable style of play. Winning and losing are not the most important.

How to arrange Gao Xiaodong's position is a difficult problem facing Ferreira and his coaching staff.

Gao Xiaodong has very comprehensive skills. He can do everything in the back and front midfielder forward winger and forward, but everything is OK, which almost means that everything is mediocre. Compared with players who are only good at one position, Gao Xiaodong does not have an advantage or is even at a disadvantage.

Of course, Gao Xiaodong cannot be allowed to play as a substitute. Even if Gao Xiaodong is even worse, Ferreira has to put Gao Xiaodong into the lineup because this is a political task. Porto old chairman Da Costa had said long ago that if he wants to do everything he can to keep Gao Xiaodong, although Ferreira is a personality coach, he would not not take the Chairman's words to heart.

Ferreira's more-played formation is 433. In this formation, Sandro is a player who can score more than 20 goals per season, so of course he cannot be wasted on the bench.

Left winger Rodriguez is able to surpass his speed. Apart from being a little stubborn, he is even an excellent player and cannot be wasted.

The right winger is Quaresma, but Quaresma is leaving. Hulk and Gao Xiaodong are similar in strength, so Gao Xiaodong can play.

The other is the three-man in the midfield. Lucho and Meleres must be counted as two, so the rest are the midfielders. Fernando and new player Guarin can play. They are similar in strength to Gao Xiaodong, and Gao Xiaodong can also play as a midfielder, so that they both serve as substitutes.

In the end, Ferreira was reluctant to let Gao Xiaodong score his goal ability and placed Gao Xiaodong as the right winger, allowing Hulk to play as a substitute.

July 21st

Starting from the morning, there were obviously more fans on the streets of Porto. Many of them were Asian fans. Some of them were wearing Rexos' No. 13 jerseys, some wore Porto's No. 10 jerseys, some wore Bochum's No. 23 jerseys and Japanese team's No. 18 jerseys.

Among these Asian fans, there are local European expatriates and Asian fans flying from the far east. Those who wear Rexos and Porto jerseys are all here to watch Gao Xiaodong play for the first time for Porto. Fans wearing Bochum's No. 23 jersey and Japanese team's No. 18 jersey are all supporting Bochum midfielder Shinji Ono.

Yes, this is not only the first time Gao Xiaodong has played Porto in the Portuguese superstar, but also an Asian derby.

Although it was just a warm-up match, this was Porto's first warm-up match, and Gao Xiaodong, the top scorer, made his debut. The number of attendees at the Dragon Stadium exceeded 40,000, exceeding the average attendance rate of the league last season.

Chen Qiang and Monkey took a large group of Chinese fans and carried the banner of the fat fan club to sit in the stands of the Dragon Stadium for the first time.

Last time, Chen Qiang and Monkey had objections to the naming of the Chinese fan organization, but in the end, the Chinese fans thought that the Fatty Fan Group was more appropriate and down-to-earth, so they named it as the Fatty Fan Group.

"Where is Gao Xiaodong playing today?"

"Can you fat guy?"

"I played well in Rexos, I wonder if I can adapt in Porto?"

"I've only been practicing with the team for more than a week, so I'm afraid I won't be more tacit in cooperation."

"I just started to like Rexos, and the fat man went back to Porto, alas."

"It's hard to say whether the fat man will stay in Porto."

...

While fans in the stands were talking, the players from Porto and Bochum walked onto the stadium.

Applause was like thunder and cheers were like tide.

The one who shouted was Gao Xiaodong's name. Today, he was the protagonist of the Dragon Stadium.

The commentator on the scene shouted: "The players on both sides are out, Gao Xiaodong is out! After loaning Rexos for one and a half seasons, our talented boy finally returned to the Dragon Stadium! When he left Porto a year and a half ago, he said he would come back proudly, but now he did it. He led Rexos to steal our league championship, but we still have to be proud of it, because Gao Xiaodong belongs to Porto. I revealed a news in advance that Gao Xiaodong won the Best Rookie Award in the Season and the Best Scorer Award in the Season..."

The applause and cheers in the stands soared again, making the on-site commentator pause.

"......This week, Gao Xiaodong's No. 10 jerseys have been selling very quickly and are growing every day. By July 21, Gao Xiaodong's jersey sales have finally surpassed Risandro, only less than Quaresma. We believe that in the near future, Gao Xiaodong's No. 10 jersey sales will definitely exceed Quaresma..."

"Let's look at the lineup of Porto and Bochum today. Porto played 4-3-3: 1-Helton/21-Sapnaru, 14-Rolando, 2-Bruno, 13-Fusilée/6-Guarin, 16-Mereles, 8-Lucho, /12-Rodriguez, 9-Lisandro Lopez, 10-Gao Xiaodong... Bochum's lineup is: Fernandez-Pfeltzer, Martritz, Mafrai, Fuks-Imhoff, Azawag, Shinji Ono, Dabrovsky, Epale, Shestark..."
