Sao Luis FC vs Porto Alegre FC!

"Remember the coach's advice". Endrick addressed his teammates just before the game started.

"Let's stay solid, not taking risks to settle into the game first".

"Once we start dominating the midfield, then we strike while the iron is hot".

FWEEE!

Team Porto Alegre started kickoff.

As soon as the whistle of the referee went off, they passed backward.

Legion did not hesitate to instantly start going after the ball as the holding defensive midfielder was forced to pass back to their defense.

For the first 2 minutes, they kept possession, circulating the ball between their defense and offense as Sao Luis refused to be drawn out completely.

Team Sao Luis won the ball a few times mostly due to Legion's relentless press but the opposition simply regained the ball back due to their sheer number in the midfield, they clearly wanted to swarm the midfield with numbers.
