The perfect midfield: It starts with never passing the ball to Ronaldo.

The news spread quickly because the results of this lottery were a hot topic.

Cristiano Ronaldo returns to Old Trafford

Mourinho faces Ferguson again.

Milan and Barcelona reunite

Arsenal face a red-hot Bayern Munich...

Every match is incredibly captivating.

In addition, he also hit the 1 in 5,000 probability that the official draw and the simulated draw would result in the same outcome.

Should people question UEFA?

Still doubting UEFA?

Despite the suspicion of manipulation, this kind of head-to-head competition still fills many neutral fans with anticipation.

From Manchester to Madrid

From London to Munich,

Then, at Wembley Stadium, the final battleground for the pinnacle of European football.

It's exciting just thinking about it, but it's a pity that the first round of the knockout stage won't officially start until February 13th.

Unlike the impatient fans, Mario wants more time to develop. If he can secure the league title earlier, he can further improve during the crucial knockout stages.

So the primary task now is clear: to climb to the top in the Portuguese league step by step!

In the twelfth round of the league, Porto won 3-0 against their opponent, while Benfica also defeated their opponent 4-1, keeping the two unbeaten teams' points difference at 2 points.

With the Christmas and New Year holidays approaching, the diligent and hardworking Mario still doesn't indulge himself.

He remained unmoved by Ines, who was dressed as a little deer.

Instead of grabbing the horse's tail and whipping it hard, she chose to enjoy the other party's riding service.

The benefits were immediate. On the first day of 2013, Mario was pleasantly surprised to find that his rating had increased, a double celebration.

As he grew older, taller, and heavier, coupled with his regular core training, the weak boy's strength finally reached the passing grade.

Pintus's mask was also very effective, and Mario successfully improved the physical attributes that midfielders need most.

Looking at his panel, Mario was still quite satisfied; half a year had passed since he activated the perfect midfield system.

Not only did he improve the first template to its maximum value, but he also strengthened his weak points through his own hard work and training.

"Honey, wake up! We promised Margaret we'd go to the zoo together today!"

Despite Ines working tirelessly through New Year's Eve, she recovered her energy and looked radiant after a good night's sleep.

The old saying is indeed true!

"OK, I'm going to wash up~" Mario smiled as he looked at his increasingly defined muscles in the mirror.

If I can systematically build muscle this summer, it would be even better if I could raise my strength rating to 8!

The actress, who was traveling with her niece's family, seemed to have the air of a virtuous wife. She not only brought all the necessary supplies but also prepared delicious food herself.

Hmm, it's a stark contrast to how she was biting her lip and rolling her eyes last night, unable to stop herself.

An 18-year-old actor with little ambition only wants to be associated with a prodigy whose performance is becoming increasingly amazing.

Therefore, he stopped practicing his basic acting skills altogether and instead focused on learning how to be a good partner and a self-media professional.

Of course, she hopes even more that she can gain status through having a child, and that her efforts during ovulation will not have been in vain.

"Uncle, can you win this tug-of-war with the tiger?" my cute little niece, carrying a pink bag, asked curiously.

"Your father should be able to do this~" Mario shook his head, showing no arrogance despite his barely passing strength.

He also recalled an unfortunate individual who was injured or reported for animal abuse because of this behavior.

"Margarita, stop fooling around!" The little girl, scolded by her mother, got a little angry and broke away from her younger brother and parents to go with her aunt.

"Little one, you'll be fine when you grow up. Many adult women are stronger than tigers in combat~" Mario joked, patting Margarita's head.

...

"Jorge, I need to stay focused. I won't be leaving Porto during the winter transfer window."

"I want to leave a championship trophy for the team I love!"

Regardless of his current personal ability, tactical adaptation, or points situation, Mario will not choose to leave during this window.

The best option, of course, is to use their formidable strength to carve out a niche for themselves in the Portuguese league and become the target of many top clubs during the summer transfer window.

Having joined with a high transfer fee and impressive statistics, the new team will definitely value him more.

Think about Cesc Fabregas at Barcelona now.

Compare this to Kylian Mbappé, who was pursued by Florentino Pérez for several years in the future.

This perfectly illustrates that being too eager won't lead to success; those who fawn over their idols will end up with nothing.

"José, Manchester City are really showing their sincerity; they're willing to activate your release clause directly. Mancini believes your long-range shots can strengthen their midfield attack!"

"You've already proven yourself in the Champions League. The Portuguese league is too small; it can't accommodate a super talent like you!" Mendes still wanted to work hard for his commission, especially since Manchester City had promised to include a commitment to playing time in the contract.

"Let's talk about it in the summer, I'm going to train!" Mario, who had already made up his mind, didn't try to persuade him any further.

When he discovered that his sugar daddy had clearly rejected the offer, Mendes didn't waste Manchester City's bid. Instead, he leaked the information to the media to help Mario build a public image.

With a grateful heart, Mario rejects a lucrative offer from Manchester City; he wants to win glory for Porto!

What incredible talent did Sporting CP miss out on?!

Porto can still play in the Champions League knockout stages; only a fool would go to Manchester City!

- [Rejecting oil-rich tycoons, Super Mario is tough enough!]

- [Blue Moon really loves using the Mario name; they just said goodbye to the Italian version, and now they're bringing in the Portuguese version~]

Understanding how to play in the Portuguese league doesn't guarantee you can succeed in the world's top league, OK?

- [Upstairs, please be clearer. The Premier League is the best league? Where do you put La Liga?]

- [Ronaldo transferred from Lisbon to Manchester United, and Mario went from Sporting Lisbon to Manchester City; these two are quite rivals!]

- [Haha, so you can't say you had no obligation to pass the ball to Ronaldo, and that you were substituted because you stole the spotlight with your goal?]

- [On how rumors are created!! The person upstairs is a master of taking things out of context!]

The turmoil of the winter transfer window did not affect Porto's rising star, whose sights remained firmly set on the Portuguese league.

He scored twice in the thirteenth round to help his team defeat Nacional Madeira, where Ronaldo grew up, 4-0.

The first and second place teams in the Portuguese league will finally meet directly.

The Dragons will visit the Stadium of Light to face the Eagles in a week!
