00:00and you can certainly hear them because it's Porto who get us underway shooting
00:08right to left as we watch and straightaway an early touch for Claudio
00:13Ramos goalkeeper coming in it was Diogo Costa who of course was one of the stars
00:18of Portugal's nation leagues win just a few weeks ago but he with a muscle
00:25injury so big match for Claudio Ramos that he was back by the manager he said
00:30every time he has he has performed and particularly performed on the big stage
00:33for Porto yeah it's an experienced keeper I think what what he lacks if you
00:39compare to Diego Costa is because that's more like a sweeper keeper and he can he
00:44can you know be that be the sweeper behind the the defense I think with with
00:49Ramos it's more a goalkeeper that you know stays on his line where it's very good
00:55you can already hear such an electric atmosphere it feels like Sao Paulo has
01:00come to New Jersey from where we're sitting to the left of us it's just
01:05green and white everywhere and this is what makes this tournament
01:11so special there they are chatting to some of the fans as soon as the tickets came
01:18out they were gone everywhere you go around New York you are spotting Palmeiras fans
01:28with Porto who are looking to get on the ball early
01:30I think like you said Pete as well I think I think a major factor in this tournament for the
01:38Brazilian teams that is their their mid-season you know they're in their rhythm whereas the European
01:44teams you know coming from from long seasons a lot of games it's definitely a factor in
01:50in the Palmeiras favor of this game there is Sean Mario once more into Agahara and a lovely overlap run
02:00and he's got him behind a real opportunity for Porto but that's a fabulous save from
02:03Leventon and then it's over the bar but really good intricate play down the right hand side from
02:11Porto as they carve Palmeiras open
02:16very good combination finding the space behind I want to say from Beaverton as well trailing left hand
02:26I think it's a handball on the on the Porto player before that well if you were with us
02:34last night you would have seen the the first game in group a and it was all about the goalkeepers on
02:39that night maybe we're just destined to never see a goal in this group
02:42whatever ten of course a very experienced Brazilian international showing his experience there
02:57it's interesting actually listening to some of Palmeiras players a lot of them talked about
03:01how anxious they were to get this tournament underway and that they felt maybe a bit of anxiety in the
03:06the early exchanges before they might settle we just saw that there there is
03:12GI his kios to say linked with both Porto and West Ham a lot of eyes will be on
03:19the Colombian international at this tournament
03:24there is Fabio Vieira who's coming to Porto for the second time in his career
03:41Parmires looking to build down the right but we've lost possession momentarily
03:48there's Varela winning it back for the Green Army
03:54will be a free kick on Palmeiras's way
04:01as I say Porto deciding to go without Eustachio and Canadian international in
04:08midfield they preferred Fabio Vieira so they have gone attacking talking of
04:11attacking great chance here for Palmeiras but even better defending getting back in
04:16the nick of time
04:19did well there you know McConaughey
04:24getting back but you can see the high press already working for Palmeiras and
04:28there's a great opportunity and somehow wide with the goal gaping he resisted
04:34about so much talk pregame but he can't find the top corner
04:40again it puts a bit too naive I think in the opening phase here
04:44Palmeiras pressing really high
04:47best about trying to bend it in the left corner left top corner but didn't get the
04:52connection they wanted and it's something he loves to do best of out to bend it with the
04:58left foot
04:59he's actually talking recently how he wants to be a number 10 he's been mostly played as a right winger
05:05likes to come infield and operate in that sort of position he picked up there
05:09everyone wants to play number 10
05:12I mean there's been a few okay Brazilian number 10s right
05:16I think it's very good from his from his right side when it when it cuts inside and and with his left foot
05:26I go how with the chest down he was looking for the run of Moura who I'm yet to really mention in the opening five minutes but free kick given to Porto a little bit of a heavy challenge into the back
05:38of the Spanish international there is Abel Ferreria also a man who is of Portuguese descent he actually was on the
05:47the coaching books of Sporting Lisbon Porto's big rivals and then coached at Praga
05:53before having great success in Brazil with Palmeiras two Copa Libertadores titles back-to-back first time ever that's been achieved by
06:02any Brazilian club and he's twice won that the Brazilian league as well although they were second last season
06:08I understand so well for them I play a bit unorthodox if we you know not not very South American in the
06:16classical sense a little bit more direct a little more a little bit more pace very organized hard to break down
06:24really well with with this team
06:46here is where he's the 174th cat for Palmeiras so experienced he's actually part of
07:09the squad when they last played in the club World Cup but they lost in the final to Chelsea
07:14Anderson, Esteval, every time he gets on the ball, there's a little bit more excitement.
07:25He did find Hios.
07:41Could have been a nasty one.
07:43Well, to control the fall, Esteval.
07:44I mean, I know he's good at football, but I didn't know he's that good at gymnastics.
07:55Even start to the game.
08:00Both sides looking to try and control possession.
08:03And the ball's been given away again.
08:06Opportunity to get forward for Mauricio.
08:09Still with Mauricio.
08:10Brazilian under-23 international.
08:12He finds Piqueiros.
08:15He was looking to pick out once again.
08:18Esteval had made the move towards the center forward position at Havocchi.
08:24He ended up struggling Porto centrally with Palmeiras high pressure.
08:29Lost the ball again there.
08:30Seems like a very fluid front line for the Brazilian side.
08:38Pedro doing well to step in there.
08:40Yeah, I think maybe first five, ten minutes.
08:43I mean, they have Samuel Agahawa up front.
08:46He is an outlet.
08:48Maybe play past the pressure.
08:51Play direct to him and go from there.
08:56Start struggling in the first ten minutes.
08:57There is G.I.
09:01Ricochets back off Anderson and to miss control.
09:05Well, it's going to go into the referee's notebook early on here.
09:07Yellow card.
09:08We saw last night in the game between Inter Miami and Ali.
09:13The referee took a long time before booking anyone.
09:17Very different story here.
09:20Yeah, it's very harsh, I think.
09:25Yeah, it's not a dirty tackle.
09:27It's just slightly late.
09:30He's got 80 minutes to go.
09:32Felipe Anderson.
09:32And he's got to spend the rest of the empty minutes on a yellow card.
09:35And I think it's safe to say Abel Ferreira,
09:37who's someone who's not too shy of keeping or showing his emotions,
09:41not overly happy with that booking.
09:50There's Meccano.
09:52Moura.
09:56Ferreira finds Francisco Moura.
09:59In fact, here's Rodrigue Moura.
10:01A lovely bit of skill from Piqueres.
10:08Here's Rodrigue Moura.
10:09He's just come infield to try and get on the ball.
10:11Skips past one brilliantly.
10:14So many skillful players on the pitch.
10:22Build-up's almost all been about Estevão.
10:25But you cannot forget about Rodrigue Moura.
10:28He scored seven in his last nine games for Porto.
10:31Many of the big, big European clubs are circling.
10:37Can Porto give it away, though, here?
10:39Chios.
10:43Estevão picking up that number 10 position once more.
10:46Finds Anderson.
10:49Estevão, can he get there?
10:50He can.
10:50Palmeiras have won the ball back.
10:53Hockey.
10:54Still, they work it, but eventually Porto are able to get it clear.
10:57Once more, the Brazilian side looking so lively on the front foot.
11:07Fabio Vieira has done very well there to come in on the right side.
11:11To prevent that goal-scoring opportunity.
11:17And they can see his qualities.
11:18Estevão, when he takes opponents on.
11:22His speed, his pace, his qualities one-on-one.
11:26Well, Fabio Vieira has been hurt in the process of that clearance, but here was the big chance
11:39for Estevão.
11:40Yeah, he gets the ball a little bit behind him, you see.
11:44So he has to adjust.
11:46That's why he can't get enough curl on it.
11:50I mean, he's very well known in Brazil, but this is a different stage altogether, isn't it?
11:54And as we've been mentioning, the talk all about him, especially with the move to Chelsea,
11:58which will happen after this tournament.
12:01It's a lot of pressure for an 18-year-old.
12:03A lot of pressure and sharp competition, of course, in Chelsea, with Neto, with Palma.
12:10But like I said, you know, speaking with the journalists here, everyone speaks so highly of him.
12:16They're comparing him to Neymar.
12:17They're comparing him to Vinicius Junior.
12:21Like I said before, Carlo Ancelotti spoke really highly, very highly of him.
12:26So, yeah, he's got a bright future ahead.
12:29Yeah, so many former players saying he's the best since Neymar.
12:33And who knows, maybe he'll be even better.
12:36But what a stage to watch him in his early years.
12:41Ramos goes long again to Agahawa, but loses out in the jumping contest against Murillo.
12:54Weatherton.
12:56And his GI to Anderson.
13:03Rashad Kios, one of those very talented players, but he's lost out.
13:09And Porto can come forward with Moura looking for Agahawa in the centre,
13:13but can't pick out the Spanish international.
13:17Here's Rodrigue Moura.
13:18Porto have it back again.
13:24Agahawa, Rodrigue Moura likes to shoot with his right foot and does just that, but can't find the bottom corner.
13:32She's done better there.
13:33It's a great ball in from Moura.
13:37It's a great ball in from Moura.
13:37It's a great ball in from Moura, this one here.
13:39Here it is.
13:40Well done on one.
13:42I like that.
13:43Just dribble past this defender.
13:44And he needs to hit goal from that distance, of course.
13:49It's tactically absolutely fascinating as well as what is happening.
14:07I talked about the fluidity of Palmyra.
14:09You can also say the same thing about Porto.
14:14Gabri Vega incidentally making his debut for the club, having signed from Al Ali just prior to this tournament.
14:21And he's popping up on the right, on the left, centrally.
14:26He's been given a free roll.
14:31And here he is once more on the left.
14:34Finds Agahawa, but he can't quite control it.
14:39Hockey just looking to turn his man.
14:48Well, again, an over-eager challenge.
14:50And you can hear the Brazilian fans having seen a yellow card for Anderson a few moments ago.
14:54They're asking for one here.
14:56Yeah, should be booking here as well.
14:57And there we go.
15:02Think as well for preventing a counter-attack.
15:09Martin Fernandes, who's gone into the notebook, just 19 years of age.
15:18Big call.
15:19Preferred to Votavio and Perez at the back today.
15:25Portuguese under-19 international.
15:28Come through the Porto Academy.
15:30Here's Estevalo for Palmyra.
15:31Again, plenty forward in the attack here for Palmyra.
15:36Towards Hockey.
15:37Come through to Anderson.
15:39Again, he tries to find Hockey.
15:49G.I.
15:50I'm going to go back to Gomez.
15:56It's been an open game.
15:57It's been a few games today that have perhaps been a little one-sided.
16:05But I think coming into this one, Jonas, this was tough to call.
16:09And it's looking that way.
16:11Both teams with early opportunities.
16:14Porto looking to get on the front foot here with Agahawa.
16:18He's got Rodrigue Moore in near him.
16:21Lovely bit of footwork from Agahawa.
16:24And has he drawn the foul yet?
16:25There, yes, he has.
16:32Yeah, I really like Agahawa.
16:34Like a modern number nine.
16:36More than just a strong striker who holds up the ball.
16:39Mobile, he's fast.
16:40He can find the space in behind.
16:42And it's good on the small areas as well.
16:45And you might have wondered.
16:46He was known as Omarudian.
16:49But he's spoken openly about wanting to change his name.
16:51And he's changed his name to his mother's maiden name.
17:00So great opportunity here for Porto.
17:17Agahawa will be a target, no doubt about that.
17:21Plenty up from the back as well.
17:22The likes of Zipedro.
17:23Varela and Vieira over the free kick for the Portuguese side.
17:33It's going to be whipped in.
17:35Swing it by Varela and then tipped over the bar brilliantly by Weatherton.
17:39Second excellent save he's made in this opening half.
17:45That's a good save.
17:46His position is good as well.
17:47It's exactly where he should be.
17:50Taking a few steps towards the front of the goal.
17:54And the ball is set there.
17:56And it was a mix between Fernandes and Anderson who got the touch.
18:07It's a bit of pressure here on Palmeiras.
18:11Gabri, Vega.
18:12And inside Vieira.
18:15It's going to be left to Vieira once more.
18:17Flick on Header.
18:18And he got a little more on it.
18:20Might have been even more problems for Palmeiras.
18:36That's Francisco Moore.
18:38It's overthrown over the head of Agahawa.
18:41It will be a goal kick for the Brazilian side.
18:44You said you're a fan of Agahawa.
18:53What do you like about him?
18:55Well, I like that he has, you know, a lot of qualities.
18:58It's good, of course, when to hold the ball up.
19:01It's good dropping down as a number 10.
19:05As it does there.
19:06I think he's mobile as well.
19:12And I think his awareness, when to go behind, when to drop deep, is very good.
19:19And, of course, so many big names have come from Porto in the past and gone on to bigger and better things.
19:27He's got a 100 million euro release clause.
19:30Well, of course, tomorrow we have LAFC against Chelsea live on DAZN and on Channel 5.
19:48That's one not to be missed.
19:50Where Esteval is heading.
19:53First English side to play in this historic club World Cup here in the USA.
19:59I think with Ugehawa, this first 20 minutes has been a bit isolated up front.
20:16Porto plays with quite a low block in defense.
20:19Back five.
20:20So when they do win the ball, and when they do find Ugehawa, doesn't have enough support as of yet.
20:27And again, trying to play out from the back.
20:30And we've talked about Abel Ferreira and how he likes to tactically outthink different teams.
20:35They set up differently.
20:36And again, they've stolen the ball.
20:38And again, there are options here, but he can't find the pass.
20:43Porto again doing well in the scrappy defense.
20:46Here's Anderson once more.
20:48Ball in towards Hockey.
20:52Two or three times now Porto have been caught trying to play out from the back.
20:55And that high press is working for Palmeiras.
21:00Yeah, they've lost the ball too many times.
21:03But what they've done well is the defensive transition when they do lose the ball.
21:08They're very good at getting bodies behind the ball like we saw in that last action.
21:16And there's Anderson once more.
21:20Back to G.I.
21:22G.I. another one of these players who can play in so many different positions.
21:27Right midfielder, center back, right back.
21:30Kind of what you have to do if you're playing for Abel Ferreira.
21:33But telling to some of the fans in the hotel, they were saying literally every weekend it's a different side, a different formation.
21:42Because again, a late challenge comes in.
21:44We've already seen two bookings in this match.
21:46And the referee from Honduras under more pressure.
21:50A little over-eager to try and win the ball back was Mourinho.
22:00It's a poor tackle.
22:01You know, you don't need to slide there.
22:03It hits them quite high as well.
22:16It is noisy.
22:18You have to come prepared.
22:18Thankfully, he'll be down the Porto side where it's not as noisy right now.
22:26But it might get noisy if they can score here.
22:29Rodrigo Moura showing his quick feet.
22:33And then goes down.
22:34Was he caught late?
22:36He's right in front of all the Brazilian fans.
22:37I think it's safe to say they don't think he was caught.
22:43I think the ref was in a good position as well.
22:46He's 10, 50 yards away.
22:48An 18-year-old got such wonderful balance though, hasn't he?
22:53How he can jink one way then the other.
22:55You can see his low center of gravity.
22:57Quick feet.
22:57Very good on small spaces.
23:01Yeah, he comes up to about your waist, right?
23:04He's 5'6".
23:05And by the way, Jonas, you're 6'5".
23:076'5".
23:09I need to quickly calculate it in centimeters, so about two meters, yeah.
23:13I'm guessing he's someone you wouldn't have liked to defend against.
23:16I think when I was at West Brom, I think we were, you know, our low block was really, really low.
23:26Basically stood in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the pounce the box the whole game.
23:31And in fact, the white, white, white zones was a no-go zone for me.
23:39Yeah, he's some player is Roderick Moore.
23:41It's going to be fascinating to see how he develops.
23:44In terms of his release callers, by the way, 70 million euros.
23:48So it's a little lower, but Porto are desperate to keep him for at least one more season.
23:57That's a son of a, a footballer that if you know your Spanish football, Jose Manuel.
24:04Certain Jorge Mendes, his agent.
24:11He's everyone's agent.
24:13Yeah.
24:16Here is Gomez.
24:18Marilla.
24:23Palmeiros look to build from the back.
24:36Porto just trying to slow the pace of the game down.
24:39Take the sting out of it.
24:48Ramos.
24:50To, to really make a save.
24:52The Portuguese, former international.
24:56That's nice one-touch play.
24:58Here is Hockey.
24:59Options in the center.
25:01Went to try and pick out Esteval, but the pass was just too heavy.
25:04And now Porto will look to counter.
25:07Oh, the other side.
25:07Oh, the other side.
25:07Oh, the other side.
25:08Oh, the other side.
25:08Agahau is nearly set free, but that's a brilliant, intercepting, sliding tackle by Gomez.
25:13Oh, he had, uh, John Mario on the other side.
25:17A frenetic period of play after what was almost a paused period of play.
25:22Porto have it back, and this time they do get the free kick.
25:28Meccano side down.
25:31Forward from the back, and it's Gi who's going to be given a talking two.
25:36That's a little bit how the first 25 minutes has been.
25:45Neither team has found, really found their, their rhythm, rhythm.
25:51It's sloppy, a lot of duels, a lot of free kicks.
26:00Normally how the first game in the championship is.
26:04Were you at Legends Bar last night?
26:05I wasn't, no, I wasn't invited.
26:07No, I wasn't invited.
26:08Okay.
26:08So that was where all the Palmeiras fans were.
26:12Down by the Empire State Building.
26:14And now they're all here at the MetLife Stadium.
26:19They are hoping that they can all puff their cheeks out and blow this free kick away.
26:25Dorello wants to get over it, or will it be Fabio Vieira, who's been the player that
26:30we've been a couple of crosses, and it's going to be Fabio Vieira again, and it's a good ball.
26:35Headed over the bar.
26:37That was a chance.
26:38Just couldn't get on top of the header.
26:41I should probably do better there.
26:43It's a great ball in.
26:45Got a free header.
26:46Maybe he's slightly too early into the space.
26:50That's McConnell.
26:54Well, there's been chances in the opening 27 minutes.
26:58I have to say, it's been the most lively game in a quarter in Group A that I've seen without
27:04any goals.
27:04A fantastic match last night between Ali and Inter Miami.
27:13Still, we wait for the first goal in Group A.
27:15Here is Anderson.
27:21Hockey making the run ahead of him.
27:23Instead comes over to another teammate who gets the shot away, but a few groans from
27:28Mauricio choosing to shoot rather than pass.
27:31Moreno, good ball in towards Hockey.
27:47It's over the head.
27:47The Brazilian front man.
27:54Estavao.
27:56In his wing position.
27:57We haven't seen him on the right wing all that often.
28:00G.I. trying to win the ball back, but he has his pocket picked.
28:03And now Porto will look to counter.
28:06Rodrigo Moura.
28:06Beautifully clips it.
28:11Cross field to Mario.
28:14Options to the left and the right.
28:17Here's Fabio Vieira.
28:23Varela.
28:25To Francisco Moura.
28:28Little drop of the shoulder from Gabriel Vieira.
28:33Very nearly picking out Agahawa.
28:35Again, it's good defending.
28:36This time from Gomes.
28:40He's done well on the left wing.
28:42I think the problem for Porto is when they do get to these crossing opportunities,
28:46they need to crowd the box.
28:48They need to get runs in from the midfield.
28:50It's only Agahawa in the box.
28:53It's too easy then for Gomes, for Murillo to defend.
29:02Once again, it's Fabio Vieira who trots over to...
29:05take the corner kick.
29:11As you can see, it's Francisco Moura in the penalty area.
29:20Agahawa will be a target as well.
29:23Varela possibly to take it as an in-swinger.
29:27It's going to be left to Vieira as an out-swinger.
29:29Again, right towards the penalty spot, but it's well dealt with this time, Balpamiras.
29:33His, Rodrigo Moura, though, cuts inside beautifully.
29:37Gets the shot away, but hits a green shirt.
29:46Moura wants more, this time on the right side.
29:49Likes to cut in field, usually onto his right foot, but...
29:52Tom tried to play a little intricate ball.
29:55And now it's Palmeiras' turn to try and counter Esteval.
29:59Hockey up ahead of him tried to play the...
30:01defense-splitting ball, but...
30:03it was really well read at the back by Martin Fernandes.
30:06And again, Porto, very good on the defensive transition.
30:19Half an hour gone, still goalless.
30:21Vieira, who is popping up all over the field.
30:38The man on loan from Arsenal.
30:44Is he Pedro?
30:46Into the feet of Vega.
30:48It's a good one-touch football.
30:52Finds Vega again, does Agarhauer.
30:53Excellent first-time ball, but he can't pick out a blue and white shirt.
31:01Oh, he rushed that last pass.
31:03So, Mario.
31:05So many dangerous attacking players on the field.
31:07You feel there's going to be a moment of trickery and brilliance
31:10at some stage in this encounter that will break the deadlock.
31:13Yeah, I agree.
31:14But Porto's been a bit too over-ambitious, I think,
31:16when they're attacking.
31:19Sometimes the easy pass, the simple pass is the good pass.
31:24It's the right pass.
31:25As we said before, Porto, who had a very disappointing season,
31:37didn't make a cup final for the first time since 2021.
31:41As Agarhauer wins the ball back here,
31:43and the referee's wave play on.
31:44Agarhauer, he's got plenty of Porto players with him.
31:46Still going, Agarhauer.
31:48Then decided to go himself,
31:49and in the end, it was just a smart save from Everton.
31:53To deny the Spaniard.
31:54Very tight angle.
31:55Should he have passed there, Jonas?
31:58Possibly.
31:59I think from that angle to how it's more to Everton is difficult.
32:04But here we see his qualities.
32:05He's strong there.
32:07Get up.
32:07And then he has to pace as well.
32:12Yeah, definitely cut back there.
32:15Everton does well as well.
32:16He doesn't commit too early.
32:18Just stands up.
32:20And it's the easy saving end.
32:23And incidentally, could face his old team,
32:26Agarhauer,
32:27with Porto can top Group A.
32:29With Atletico Madrid's loss earlier on today,
32:32they'll hope to get through in second place in Group B.
32:34And that would be the last 16 encounter,
32:36but we've got a long way to go before then.
32:38So we see Martin Anselmi.
32:41It's funny, isn't it?
32:42Two managers.
32:42You've got a South American in charge of the Portuguese side,
32:46and then you've got a Portuguese in charge of the South Americans.
32:51Anselmi of Argentinian descent.
32:57Previously managed in Ecuador, though.
33:01A stoppage in play.
33:04Yeah, some big shoes to fill, Anselmi.
33:13It's been some good managers in Porto over the years.
33:17Spurto Santo, Lopatigu, Mourinho, of course.
33:20And he's got one of them as his president.
33:22Oh, yeah, B.S. Boas.
33:23President, yeah.
33:24Elected last year, right?
33:26Yeah.
33:27Big switch, big change for Porto.
33:29Just have to hope here that Meccano is okay.
33:33He's taken a fairly nasty blow to the head.
33:39Porto captain.
33:41He's actually missed the majority of the season with a cruciate ligament tear.
33:45That was the majority of last season.
33:46He's only played in 11 games, but Porto's turn in fortunes came when he came back.
33:54They say they were able to win five of the last six games,
33:58including winning their last three.
34:01So they won't want him to go down here at the Club World Cup.
34:06There's so much concussion protocol that gives Abel Ferreira some time to maybe get a few messages to Felipe Anderson.
34:15Marcel Verde.
34:16Looks like he's going to be okay, which is good news.
34:41And again, Almeiras go with the high press.
34:44This time, Porto go along with Ramos.
34:48Agahawa going up for it.
34:49He's struggled to win those headers, though, against Gomez.
34:53And again, Agahawa coming down late.
34:55I was following the ball.
34:56I didn't even see that, Jonas.
34:58I think he just catches him with his arm or with his elbow.
35:03It's good chill, though, isn't it, between Murillo and Agahawa?
35:06I think that's the center half.
35:09You need to protect your space like Murillo's doing.
35:11I think that's very harsh.
35:27Ramos once again.
35:29It's too long for Agahawa, and that will be easily dealt with by Gomez.
35:33This was a boxing match.
35:39Who's ahead on points right now, Jonas?
35:42I think Padmeiras, for me, I think they look a threat when they come up front.
35:48They certainly look a threat right now.
35:50But again, there is that transition defending from Porto.
35:54So many times when they look like they're just about to be opened up.
35:57They've been able to get a foot in or an interception.
36:00Tom, I think it was Mario getting back to help his side.
36:05Yeah, I think Porto's struggled to find its rhythm this first half.
36:09Palmeiras, I think, when they win the ball high up.
36:14And I'll put those players in play.
36:17Estevão, Vito Hockey.
36:20And they look at the threats.
36:22All in towards, very much, the far post.
36:47It's Porto again.
36:48We'll look to clear their lines.
36:49Just bundled over, they get the free kick.
36:55Mixed it up as well.
36:56Ciao, Mario and Porto team,
36:58in terms of either building from the back or going direct.
37:02So they can adapt.
37:03They haven't mixed it up.
37:04They haven't stopped singing and chanting since the...
37:07Well, I would say that the first whistle,
37:09but in fact it was half an hour before the first whistle.
37:17It's time Porto go long,
37:18and here's a chance for the counter.
37:24Well, I asked you about who's ahead on points here, Jonas,
37:27but we've got a boxing encounter coming up.
37:30Jake Paul against Chavez Jr.
37:3228th of June, not to be missed.
37:34Jake Paul's first fight since fighting a certain Mike Tyson.
37:37is live on the zone.
37:45There's been a few fights here as well.
37:47Michel Horcios.
37:56Colombian international.
37:58Hasn't got on the ball, I think, as much as his manager would like.
38:01Started playing at futsal as a youngster,
38:04and that was where he was picked up and recognized.
38:06Very fancy footwork, taking a fancy footwork.
38:10Well, that was a fine turn by Varela.
38:12Oh, hold on.
38:13Well, Palmeiras has won the ball back,
38:15and again, vital interception,
38:17although the free kick has gone Palmeiras' way,
38:20much to the great frustration from Zipedro.
38:23He won the ball cleanly there.
38:24Here's Anderson, though, for Palmeiras.
38:35It's played earlier.
38:36Yeah.
38:38There's another excellent interception.
38:39How many times have I said that?
38:48Big shouts for a free kick.
38:50Nothing given.
38:51Three waves play on,
38:52and here come Palmeiras down the left.
38:54Right-hand side.
38:56It's De Waal popping up there.
38:57He's got options in the center looking for Hockey.
39:00Once more, Porto Foot is able to be got in there.
39:04Varela, the man, getting back to help his side.
39:07Yeah, and I think Vito Hockey needs to make those runs
39:09on the first post.
39:13You see here,
39:15he's hiding.
39:17Oh, it's offside.
39:18But he needs to attack the first post here
39:21in order to open up the space for his teammates.
39:23And we've seen Estevão on the right
39:27in the central position,
39:28popping up on the left there,
39:29but it was offside.
39:31It's interesting, isn't it, with how Miras is in sometimes playing the high press,
39:51other times backing away.
39:52Yeah, but they're very synchronized, though.
39:56When they go, they do go.
39:58It's a whole team.
39:59You have, you've seen here, first half,
40:02Murillo, Gomez, Guiai,
40:03they're very comfortable
40:04playing one-on-one,
40:05playing with a high line.
40:06High, uh, high line.
40:09In the Greek,
40:10they're modern in that sense.
40:13And the ball switched over towards Estevão.
40:15In the position he wants to be in.
40:17What can he produce here?
40:18The 18-year-old
40:19can only find the side, Nertic.
40:21And I think the second touch is too wide.
40:30It's a great ball.
40:33Second touch, third.
40:35There.
40:36Angle is...
40:37Ah.
40:39It's a little bit too wide,
40:40and it's...
40:41Ah, it's good defending as well.
40:43But regardless, I think,
40:45I think that,
40:45that touch
40:46gives him an angle
40:47that's
40:48beneficial to,
40:50to Claudio Ramos
40:50in Portis' goal.
40:53He should be more vertical.
40:55Well, the youngsters
40:55have had chances
40:56in this first half,
40:57both Estevão and
40:58Rodrigue Moura.
41:00It still remains nil-nil.
41:01It's going to be
41:01Felipe Anderson, though,
41:03to take the corner kick
41:03for Palmeiras.
41:05Will be an in-swinger.
41:06Plenty forward from the back.
41:09Pisted away by Ramos.
41:17Help back in,
41:18but too high
41:19and too long
41:19from Piqueras.
41:39Of course,
41:39as you can see there,
41:40there is a pocket
41:41of Portuguese fans
41:42here as well.
41:44Incidentally,
41:45not too far away
41:47here at MetLife Stadium
41:48from a,
41:49a Portuguese
41:50immigrant neighbourhood
41:52down neck.
41:53So I'm sure
41:54a lot of them
41:54will have made
41:56their way here
41:57to this amazing
41:58stadium,
41:5982,500.
42:00and be back here
42:04in a couple of days' time
42:06for Fluminense
42:07against Borussia Dortmund.
42:13It's here.
42:15Excellent turn
42:16by the Colombian.
42:17Options to his right
42:18and left.
42:19Chooses to go
42:19to his right.
42:20Anderson
42:21is
42:23for Mauricio
42:25who again
42:26gives the ball away.
42:29They do have options
42:30on the bench,
42:31incidentally,
42:31Palmeiras.
42:32They've got the likes
42:33of Paulinho,
42:34former Bayer Leverkusen man,
42:36Facundo Torres as well.
42:37Just wonder
42:40at the second half
42:41whether we will see
42:41one or both
42:43of those two.
42:43Raphael Vega
42:44was someone
42:45I think many thought
42:46would start.
42:47He's scored
42:47some big goals
42:48in his career,
42:49including
42:50at the Club World Cup.
42:51They scored
42:55against Chelsea,
42:56didn't they,
42:56in the final
42:572021.
43:0122 maybe it was.
43:02Tough to tell
43:03because they're
43:04at the 2021
43:05and 2022
43:06Club World Cup
43:06finals,
43:07having won
43:08the Copa Libertadores
43:08back-to-back years.
43:11They were so close
43:12to being Club World Cup
43:13champions in 2022.
43:15Took the lead
43:16with Raphael Vega
43:18but ending up
43:20losing
43:20in extra time.
43:26Morella
43:26now finding
43:27himself on the deck.
43:29That's been
43:29a number of
43:30free kicks
43:31in this first half.
43:33Yeah,
43:33I think especially
43:34Palmeiras
43:35have been so aggressive.
43:37So on the front foot,
43:38I think last
43:3815-20 minutes
43:40they've been taking
43:41the game
43:41to Portis
43:42half
43:43a lot of the times
43:46finding the rhythm,
43:49finding goal-scoring
43:50opportunities
43:50but
43:51last bit of quality
43:53hasn't been there
43:54for Palmeiras
43:55first half.
43:56just a minute left
44:06of this first half
44:07plus stoppage time.
44:09And we're going to get
44:10one final chance
44:11in what has been
44:12a game of a fair few chances.
44:15We decide yet
44:16to take one.
44:17Yeah,
44:18I think Portis
44:19struggled really
44:19in the build-up
44:21because they want
44:21to play centrally,
44:22they want to play
44:22through the middle
44:23but Palmeiras
44:24has been
44:25too aggressive there,
44:26too many bodies
44:27to play through.
44:28It's just a little
44:29pull back there
44:30on Felipe Anderson.
44:32Vega,
44:32the man to
44:33just grab the shirt
44:35former Brazilian
44:37international.
44:41Such an experienced
44:42player,
44:42isn't he,
44:43Anderson?
44:44Having had those
44:44stints in the Premier
44:45League and in
44:46Serie A.
44:47Yeah,
44:47especially I think
44:48in Lazio,
44:49in Serie A with
44:49Lazio,
44:50he was at times
44:51unplayable.
44:54He's been in and out
44:55of the team
44:56in the Serie A
44:58Brazilian League.
45:02He's given the
45:03nod this afternoon,
45:05this evening,
45:06I should say,
45:06as the sun is
45:07beginning to set
45:08in New Jersey.
45:09Three minutes
45:09of stoppage time.
45:10There has been
45:11a lot of stoppages
45:12throughout this
45:14opening half.
45:16Esteval going
45:17for goal himself
45:17but Ramos was
45:19alert to it.
45:21Just shows you
45:22how confident
45:23Esteval is.
45:24I know,
45:24Abel Ferreira
45:26was actually
45:26talking about him
45:27saying that one
45:28of the big traits
45:28with him is that
45:29he is happy to
45:30try things and
45:31even if he fails
45:31at them,
45:32he will go again.
45:33He's unaffected
45:33by it.
45:39The famous
45:40Chumba Wumba song
45:41when he gets
45:42knocked down
45:42but he gets
45:43back up again.
45:48I think that was
45:50a song in the
45:52FIFA days,
45:52wasn't it,
45:53as well?
45:53Probably was,
45:54yeah.
45:54Here's
45:54Roderick Moura
45:55thinking one way
45:57then the other
45:58still going
45:58Moura.
46:00Maybe just took
46:01on one too
46:01many players.
46:03Yeah,
46:03like I said,
46:03a little bit
46:04overambitious
46:04at times.
46:06With Mauricio.
46:06decided to hold on to
46:09the ball,
46:10but he's still
46:11been able to pick
46:11out a green shirt.
46:13Piqueras helps
46:14it on to Hockey.
46:15Finds it.
46:16This could be the
46:17first goal,
46:17but somehow it's
46:18kept out.
46:18Surely it should have
46:19been.
46:20Somehow they're still
46:20alive.
46:21Here's Rios,
46:23and still it's
46:24kept out.
46:25How on earth
46:26did Ramos make
46:28so many saves,
46:29and it's still
46:300-0-0.
46:32We spoke about
46:33Vitor Hockey as well.
46:34He needs to make
46:35better runs.
46:36That's a great run.
46:38Left inside space,
46:40this run here.
46:41And the pass.
46:42Oh, did he get it?
46:43Yeah.
46:44Well, did it.
46:45It's a great save.
46:45Foul getting heels
46:46his way there.
46:46It did.
46:47It did, yeah.
46:49And then this
46:50great save from
46:51from Claudio Ramos
46:51and another one
46:53on.
46:55Oh, they go.
46:56The save.
46:58Well, I mean,
46:59all the chat
47:00before the game
47:00was Diogo Costa
47:02that the big name
47:04on the Porto
47:06team sheet,
47:06usually fresh
47:07from winning
47:08the Nations League
47:09with Porto,
47:10but wow,
47:11has Claudio Ramos
47:12stepped up
47:12in his place.
47:16What a couple
47:16of saves there.
47:18He's a Portuguese
47:19international himself,
47:20let's not forget.
47:26Coach did say
47:27on the big stage
47:28when he's been
47:29called upon,
47:30he's always delivered.
47:32That was certainly
47:33the case
47:33on that occasion,
47:34but still a chance
47:35here for Palmeiras
47:36to try and break
47:38the deadlock
47:38just before
47:39the halftime whistle.
47:45Four, in fact,
47:55five in the wall
47:55for Porto.
47:59Piqueras
48:00over the ball.
48:04It won't be
48:05Piqueras
48:05or will it?
48:08Here is Piqueras
48:09dips it over
48:10the wall
48:10and just wide.
48:13What a finish
48:13to the half
48:14this has been
48:14from Palmeiras,
48:15but still
48:16they can't get
48:16the breakthrough.
48:17It's a great try
48:18though.
48:22I don't think
48:23Claudio Ramos
48:24has that one
48:27under control.
48:29And there is
48:30the halftime whistle.
48:31Well, it's been
48:31frenetic.
48:33It's been thoroughly
48:33entertaining
48:34and we've seen
48:35chances for the
48:36two young wonderkids,
48:38Esteval
48:38and
48:39Rodrigue Moura.
48:41Both have been
48:42unable to find
48:43the back of the net.
48:43Great saves from
48:44Weatherton earlier
48:45on, but then
48:46an absolutely
48:46outstanding save
48:48from Claudio Ramos
48:49means at
48:50halftime here
48:51in New Jersey
48:51it is Palmeiras
48:53nil, FC Porto
48:54nil.
