Dick O'Dell's stall
Remember in one second
Wu Yu's goal completely defeated the Stars team, and they no longer caused trouble for Maritimo in their subsequent matches.
Maradona was able to maintain a 2-1 lead until the end, thanks also to Wu Yu's tireless running after scoring two goals, leaving his footprints on every blade of grass on the field.
Until the 85th minute of the match, he was substituted out by Dick Oh due to exhaustion and cramping.
Hundreds of Marítimo fans at the scene had already forgiven him when Wu Lei scored the second goal, and when he was substituted due to cramp in the final minutes, those Marítimo fans who followed the team to the away game applauded and cheered for Wu Lei. Even the home team's fans were convinced by his performance and gave him applause.
Wu Yu walked off the court to a standing ovation from over 20,000 spectators. He basically helped Maridimo lock up a playoff spot in this crucial game.
In the Fonte Nova bar, Marítimo fans saw on the screen Wu Lei exhausted, gasping for air as he walked off the field. They felt that their previous resentment and curses towards Wu Lei were only because this young man had brought too much happiness to the team and themselves, so they couldn't accept the fact that he was leaving.
After Wu Yu was left behind due to injury, he still performed so professionally, finding himself again in the midst of tens of thousands of Maridimo fans' boos and helping the team reverse the game, even fighting until cramping.
By this time, the fans of Maridimo had no reason to hate this young player. However, due to face-saving, these fans just quietly watched the screen and did not cheer as usual, nor did they applaud Wu Yu through the TV.
The big bearded man and the bartender couldn't help but shake their heads and laugh at this strange scene.
"Okay, the referee blew the final whistle of the match, and Marítimo reversed Bugarlest Star 2-1 away with two goals from Wu Yu, advancing to the Europa League round of 32. Next, let's take a look at the post-match interview..."
With Christine's voice, Wu Yun appeared in front of the camera, this is a live reporter interviewing the best player of the game on site.
"Wu Yu, how do you evaluate your performance today?"
"This match was very difficult, the home stadium of the Stars team is hard to play in, we spent a lot of effort to regain control. In the past few matches my state has not been good, today I was able to score two goals, I am very happy, and hope that future matches will get better and better."
"Didn't manage to transfer to Tottenham in the summer, will it affect your current mindset?"
"I was indeed very disappointed during the time I got injured, and maybe half a month ago when I came back, I was also troubled by this kind of thing, which led to poor performance. But now I won't think about these things anymore, I really like this club, maybe one day soon I will leave here, but before that, I am Marítimo's player, it is equivalent to my second home, I will fight for every game of Marítimo"
。”
"Okay, thank you."
Wu Yu left the TV screen after finishing the interview.
Inside the Fonsal bar, after seeing Wu Yu's sincere words just now, all the fans fell into silence again. They seemed to be thinking about whether they were too harsh on Wu Yu in the past few months.
As Wu Lei said, he will leave here sooner or later. This is the road he must take to become a top player. As someone who has brought honor and joy to Marítimo and still contributes to the team, Marítimo fans are thinking about whether they should give him some applause whenever he leaves.
Of course, this is just Wu Yu's first outstanding game in the new season. The fans of Maritimo were only slightly awakened by their inner feelings. Wu Yu wants to win back the hearts of the fans, and he must have a sustained outstanding performance.
At the post-match press conference, head coach Martins and Quaresma both expressed their support for Wu Lei, believing that fans should forget about Wu Lei's transfer to Tottenham in the summer and give him the greatest support when he was still a player of Marítimo.
Martins' words are not only for the fans, but also for his teammates. Wu Yu was the core midfielder of Maritimo last season, and after this game, I believe his teammates will have more confidence in him.
Wu Lei's resurgence in this match quickly spread among Portuguese media, and people seem to have a faint feeling that the young Chinese player who led Marítimo to chase after the top three in the Super League last season and scored against Benfica in the League Cup final is back.
And Martins and Quaresma's post-match comments have re-established Wu Lei's position in the hearts of Marítimo fans, with most of them starting to forget what happened during the summer transfer window, except for some overly biased fans.
Wu Lei did not disappoint the Marítimo fans in his next match, helping Marítimo to win consecutive matches for the rest of November and keeping pace with the top teams in the standings.
In the first weekend of December, Wu Lei started in the 14th round of the Portuguese Super League and helped Maritimo defeat their opponents with two assists, returning to third place in the standings. Behind them is Sporting Lisbon!
Wu Yus excellent performance has also allowed him to regain his starting position, resulting in Dickau sitting on the bench for nearly half a month.
However, Maritimo's fans, although occasionally sympathizing with Dick Oh, were satisfied with Wu Yun's performance.
December 7, the day after Maridi Mbo returned to third place in the league standings, was a Sunday, and the whole team got a day off after the game, but Martens sat in his office, talking to someone.
"Deke, you're off today, what brings you here?" Martens asked, sitting in a chair and looking at Deke with a puzzled expression.
"Right, coach, I want to play more games, I don't like sitting on the bench." Dickao sat down and got straight to the point.
"I understand that, but Wu Yu has performed exceptionally well in these few matches. You should wait patiently for opportunities like he did before." Martens seemed to have already guessed his intention and said meaningfully.
"But I also performed well when he was injured, I hope I can always have a match, and I yearn to become a top player." Dick O said with some urgency.
"I know, next time I will give you more opportunities to play, but you have to be patient."
"Coach, I hope to have a stable starting position, I've been working hard for it. If I can't get a stable chance to play, I'd like to transfer to another team and get more playing opportunities." Dicko hesitated for a moment before saying his most bottom-line words.
This amounts to forcing Martins into a decision, either giving him a regular starting spot or letting him go.
Di Kok is a young midfielder personally trained by Mari Dima. If it weren't for Wu Yu's sudden rise last season, he would probably be firmly in the starting lineup now. However, his position overlaps with Wu Yu's, and there was no way to let this youth training player temporarily occupy the substitute position as Wu Yu's rotation player on the field.
It was unexpected that at this time, this young player who had always been quiet would start to complain and give Martins a headache.
"Dick Oh, you are a player who has been cultivated by the club with one hand. The team attaches great importance to you from top to bottom. In the future, the team will definitely have your position. Let's not discuss this matter for now. After the winter break, I'll talk to you again, okay?" Martens said calmly.
He currently has no choice but to stall for time, first holding off Dicko and then thinking of another way.
。
Dick's lips moved slightly, but he didn't say anything else. He just nodded in agreement and left Martens' office.
He approached Martins today, completely because he was benched by Wu Yu after starting for a period of time, worried that the same thing would happen again last season. He wants to have a brilliant performance and hopes to join a bigger club, which is becoming more and more elusive.
After Dick O' leaves, Martins appears in another office, and sitting inside the office is the team's boss - Felipe.
He told Felipe what Dick O had just laid out to him. After listening, Felipe frowned slightly and said with some displeasure:
"This must be Mendes' doing!"
"I think he himself also wants to get more playing opportunities, and this can't be blamed on Mendes." Martins said beside him, speaking for Mendes.
Felipe did not retort, but instead kept a straight face and remained silent.
"Mr. Felipe, what should we do now?" Martens asked, seeing that Felipe didn't say anything.
Felipe still didn't say a word, but he took out a document from the drawer and handed it to Martins.
Martins took over the file, roughly flipped through it, and his face changed greatly. He looked at Felipe in surprise and said, "What is this?"
"Yuè Wò just called me, this is his contact." Felipe said with a somewhat heavy tone.
"But this quotation does not meet our requirements." Martins said with a frown.
"Although it didn't meet our requirements, it's not much different either. Moreover, that kid has already brought a lot of honor to the team, this can be considered as some compensation for him, after all, this is not his place to stay long, it's time to let him leave." Felipe said with a drawn-out tone.
Martins remained silent.
"Dick O is a player from our youth training, and we must keep him. Since he wants a main position, let's give it to him. We've already advanced to the Europa League group stage this season, so let's give him space to grow." Felipe sighed, feeling somewhat unenthusiastic.
