Lionel Messi First Match for Barcelona

He spent many years in the capital of Catalonia and then José Mourinho made a point of coming here to the Bank of Barcelona to greet not only Franck Rijkaard, but all the elements of the technical team of the most important club in Catalonia. And as is usual at the Estádio de Santas, at the Estádio do Dragão there is also the hymn sung by Maria Amélia Canossa that accompanies the arrival of the teams at the stadium. There are surely more than 40,000 Cascois at this time coloring the Estádio do Dragão. And Rui Serreira, who will be kicked out? I imagine that with a lot of pity is, for example, Costinha, who is in the national team. Do you regret not playing today? Yes, I regret it, but it certainly has nothing to do with it. Here the first kick in the game is given by Barcelona. There it is, the ball rolls in the Estádio do Dragão. It can go with danger, the Portuguese team shoots and Jorqueira's defense makes the first difficult defense of the night. And still losing the ball, the referee sends the launch to Porto. These are the first applause for this very dangerous first attack from Porto. Also on the bench a lot of people got up, already in anticipation of the first goal at the Estádio do Dragão. It was not yet. It was Bruno Moraes, this inauguration, there goes Porto. There are three men in the area, Jorqueira, still Ricardo Fernandes with the possibility of scoring a great defense from Jorqueira. Three interventions already at a good level of this goalkeeper of Barcelona's B team, which is the third goalkeeper, let's say in terms of... Ricardo Fernandes, he's going for it, he's going to try a shot and the deviation of Berlay does not arise. Even in a game of presentation, the Portuguese fans do not make it easy, it was bloody. That's what I like. That fan we saw. But the players also do not. And it shows in the way in which they gave this beginning of the game this attitude of the players, a winning attitude of both teams. It was a shot, not a cross, so Berlay could very easily get there. José Mourinho is the one who does not make it easy at all. Berlay has the support of the secretary on the right, in the middle Pedro Mendes, still Berlay, the shot, and the third corner for Porto. There are problems on the bench. It seems to me, yes, it seems to me that there is an adept who will have felt bad or who will be in trouble. The rest of the Portuguese football bank drew attention to the men of the corporation. Luis Henrique's attack, ball for Luis Garcia, can create danger. And the secretary, excellent, does the coverage until the ball reaches Vítor Bahia. It is true that Luis Garcia gives one more touch, but it is also true that the secretary arrived very quickly to double the centrals. Porto seems to be number 11. Well played now with Óscar López being able to cross with danger and Jorge Costa avoiding what could be a goal from Barcelona. Pedro Mendes seems a little relaxed in the center. Corner for Barcelona, tired, the header. This match from the beginning, the ice is not to drink a whiskey, for example. The day is a party, but you can't drink that much, right? Exactly. Secretary, Ricardo Fernandes, good cross, looking for a deviation, almost for the own goal. Corner kick, fifth for Porto. Two corners had Barcelona in the game, 0 to 0. Good attack from Porto, the ball is left for Pedro Mendes, but it was left for Pedro Mendes' left foot. It was Ricardo Fernandes for Pedro Mendes. If it had been the other way around, maybe Ricardo Fernandes' left foot would have been better. Still in relation to Luis Henrique's attack, that's why Franck Rijkaard immediately got up and asked Barcelona's captain to calm down. It may not be very beautiful, but it has been the animation of the game in the last minutes. Barcelona's attack can score, but Vitor Maia receives an easy pass from Gabri, who had everything to create danger. Is it part of Luís Matos' prognosis? There the player guessed 0 for Barcelona. He smiled. For Ricardo Fernandes, Valde helps in the attack. Ricardo Fernandes, good pass to Derdai, he can isolate himself, well, the central defense is there to protect. It was Oleguer. Oleguer. For Barcelona, third. Possibly it was Jorge Costa, the goal from Gabri, to scare Bahia. Bahia controlled the ball's passage, but Gabri has been one of the players who has scored the most goals, although without any success. He tried to score. It is not the first time that he has left to the left foot. The last one was a pass to Bahia. And there it is. Interval at the Dragão Stadium. 0 to 0 is the time to take a break. We'll be back in a few minutes to show you then... 0 to 0 is the real result in this virtual projection. Derdai's tackle. Cross. It's a cross. Now it's something that hurts a little in the eye, this blinking of the advertising panels, which, since the day of the debut, it seems that they already gave what they had to give. We see there in the background... Silva. The last one and a half. Well played by Porto, Derdai tries to get there and it's a penalty. Possibility of Porto to score the first goal at the Dragão Stadium. There are forcefully ironic smiles on the part of the Bank of Barcelona, the supporters of Franck Rijkaard. It looks like a more provoked penalty, because there is a grip, a hug, but it's Derdai who puts the arm, who hugs himself. But so you can say, Fernando Navarro. Derdai can make his debut at the Dragão Stadium. Derdai... Goal! It's the first goal at the Dragão Stadium. Vanderlei and Fernando Silva. Debut for the history of the Porto Football Club. After scoring decisive goals in the UEFA, at the Portugal Cup, at the Dragão Stadium. He almost ruined the Jorquera party, but Derdai did not fail. With more strength. Second post to lose the ball to Manis. Still Manis. So many people alone. The header. Goal! It's a great goal by Hugo Almeida. A header. Hugo Almeida. A header that seemed, by the strength of the ball, a technical gesture. It's perfect. Derdai scored the first goal. José Mourinho was sitting on the bench. He didn't even move. Now with the spectacularity of the goal, until the goalkeeper, the whole bench immediately. And celebrated this goal already inside the penalty area. Yes, and Manis also had a lot of merit, not being able to make the first step. He held on until the time to put the ball in Hugo Almeida. It should be noted that Hugo Almeida was nicknamed, when he became the best scorer of the second division B, by the Porto Football Club B, as Vieri das Antas. In this case, it may be from Dragão. For the physical appearances, for the style. It's not Manuel Fernandes Silva. Exactly. Paulo Machado. Vieirinha, also from the same team, but the attacking midfielder. Attention that Hugo Almeida can aim. The great defense of Jorge Era. He almost made the second. Hugo Almeida. Very good, very good. Once again, Hugo Almeida. Here the merit has to be whole. And the goalkeeper, it's noticeable. The shot is good, but the defense is better. And this goalkeeper doesn't seem to be anything bad either. He started badly. He started badly, throwing some balls. From there, it's safe. The Porto side comes out. Secretary. It's played now. Ball for Manish. To the bar. Great shot from Manish. Without a doubt, one of the great players of Porto in the last year and this season. In the end, the emotion was kept for the second half. It's a great shot after an assist and for the goal. The shot is sensational. Seen here from Real Madrid, the ball had an incredible effect and only for a very short time it didn't enter the goal of Barcelona. Well, Manish can say, I shot the first ball at the end in the stadium of Dragão. We declined. The Barcelona defender will leave the bench Messi. In front of Peru. Ball for Messi. Leo Messi. 16 years old. And the notes on his face. In a little while, another Barcelona player will leave the bench. The substitute has already left. He will enter the game. It's number 19, Riera. 8,000. Riera. A refreshment of the midfield. An attempt to do something more by Frank Rijkaard. Ricardo Carvalho. Barça attack. Leo Messi. Don't pass. Ricardo Carvalho's clean cut. Porto tries to project the attack right after the end of the game. The end that will still have. At this point, he can score for Barcelona at 1.20. And then he's lucky. The ball falls from the hands of Nuno. Nuno, who presents here a visual to a cinema actor. In a little while, there will also be a substitution in Barcelona. Number 12 will enter, Thiago. Thiago, who is a Brazilian. An Italian-Brazilian who is in the zone. Porto attack. Manis wants to get to the goal. Manis from Mallorca. He comes out of the beach. And they're all in the game. Except for the goalkeeper. I think. Now we can't blame anyone. We have to be fair. We can't blame anyone. It's Luiz Henrique and Thiago. And he's going to score for Barcelona. As everything indicates. No. Barcelona is at the party. It's unbelievable how they didn't score. A VIP match of Porto's football between the guests. João Loureiro. After lunch he was smoked. Riera. Léo Messi. A pass by Ricardo Carvalho. Pedro Mendes. And Nuno. He doesn't let himself be betrayed by that high jump. To move away. Possibility of a counterattack from Porto. Almost fell. The Catalan player. And now the game is in that phase of tripping and falling. Léo Messi. And the game will end at Estádio do Dragão. Porto 2. Barcelona 0. It's the final result. The show hasn't ended yet. At the stadium and at the television broadcast. We'll have a short break and we'll be back in a bit to find out if Luiz Demar...
