Chapter 298: 2020/21 Liga NOS, Matchday 5 II

#41st minute…

After Porto's first goal against the Gil Vicente team, they hadn't let up their efforts.

They had continued pressing their opponents hard, continuously striving towards furthering their lead. Still, the Gil Vicente team had stood up to them for a while, making it difficult for the Porto team to bring their efforts to fruition.

The Gil Vicente players knew that letting the Porto team score another goal to further their lead would take the game away from their hands because at that time Porto would be able to dictate the flow of the game completely.

They were already struggling against a Porto team that was putting their full focus on attacking so it would become even worse if Porto scored another and decided to slow down the game to consolidate their lead.
