Let’s get revenge! They score in the first five minutes. Again, be patient with the counter ideas, but I’m moving to control. He’s getting knocked around, so I pull Defedreico early for Javi. Late, Adriano is given a nice little shot, takes it, and it’’s half. I move back to counter from control. In the 46th minute, Adriano finds Rondon with a great pass to set him up nicely for that score that puts us up 2-1. Skolnik was injured in the 69th I have to put in Sequeira. I tell my folks to do very low tempo – my team is dog tired. I just hope we can hold on. We do, and win against Braga in our place 2-1. Again, we got a win after begin behind. Adriano is the MOM.
Javi is starting at ML for a bit while Skolnik heals a bit. I give some of my folks some rest. That win over Braga helped, we now are three points above them in the standings. After 12 games, we’re in 4th – behind Porto, Sporting, and Benfica – in that order. The Big Three.
