THE BALL – Jesus saves the national teams against Paredes (Benfica)



[ad_1]

Jorge Jesus will present, tomorrow, in Paredes, at the debut of the Eagles of the Portuguese Cup, a team made up essentially of players who have been working at Seixal for two weeks. In other words, leaving out most of the internationals who returned to Lisbon only yesterday after serving their respective teams. In this way Jesus will have the opportunity to promote at least one debut, the goal of Helton Leite. But there may be other news.

Yesterday was marked by the return of the majority of the nine players who were in the national team, and immediately with the concern of being tested for Covid-19 (see page 2) before training. But in the case of Vertonghen, for example, the Belgian has already arrived in Lisbon after having trained the eagles, so only today will he be present in Seixal to work. Jan Vertonghen will surely be one of those who won’t travel north. Otamendi, who was on the pitch yesterday afternoon, could also stay in Lisbon. An opportunity, therefore, for Jesus to present a new pair of central players: Jardel and Ferro are the most probable hypothesis, but Jean-Clair Todibo will also be able to enter the accounts of the embodied coach.

In goal, Vlachodimos may not even be called up. Helton Leite, a 30-year-old Brazilian, will make his debut and Svilar should be the man to go to the bank.

For the sides, Diogo Gonçalves and Grimaldo are the main options, they’ve had two weeks to deepen their knowledge of how Jesus wants the men of the last line to work.

For the kernel, Adel Taarabt is also expected to work at Seixal, and without Weigl (with Covid-19) or Gabriel Samaris the main options are to be considered for midfield. Pizzi, Chiquinho, Rafa, Cervi and even Pedrinho are also solutions that Jesus can turn to to form the midfield line.

It is only for the attack that the embodied coach should call men who were in the national team, in the case of Seferovic or Luca Waldschmidt, as well as Gonçalo Ramos. The offensive sector was the one with the fewest losses due to selections. Jesus has worked for the past two weeks with Daniel dos Anjos, 24, a Brazilian forward from team B, and Facundo Ferreyra, 29, an Argentine who, not counting the manager’s accounts for this season, has not found a job and has worked with the main team since the market closed. Jesus appreciated the way the Argentine is engaged in training and if he understands it he can give him the opportunity … at least as a team. However, at first hardly launch it. But the Cup is usually one of the new opportunities …
