章 418: Glory Addict I

***12th January 2021***

"Viera, your job in the center is to draw out their defensive midfielders so that there will be enough space for the ball to reach the strikers,"

In one of the locker rooms of the Madeira stadium in Funchal, Oporto's manager was giving his players instructions on the tactical set-up for their upcoming match.

The Oporto team would be going up against the Nacional team in the fifth round of the Taca de Portugal and it was a pretty big day because apart from the importance of the match, it was also the first match since before the COVID break where fans would be allowed back into the stadiums.

Of course the stadiums wouldn't be filled due to some precautionary measures being taken, but sixty percent of the available seats were sold.

Due to it having been a while, the fans of both teams did not hesitate to lap up the available seats and the seats were sold out in less than ten minutes after they were put up.
