Mehdi Taremi @ FC Porto | 2021-2022

The funny thing is that in this game, he barely dived. It was more other players like Otavio, Fabio Viera and Evannilsson who dived.

wasnt directed toward taremi personally lol. He didnt have any suspicious situations even in this game. The most pathetic moment was Paulinho, sporting CF, horrible attempt at selling a pk. In this case amorim was probably referring to evanilson's play to get the pk.

Say what you want about Taremis PKs but there is a reason they are given so consistently, by Iranian, Portuguese, and EU refs on continental level. The guy has very long strides and times them super well in the box. Defenders think situation is harmless and suddenly he gets a toe to the ball first. Then he sells the contact, it is minimal but especially when reviewed on VAR it can usually be seen clearly and most of the time they are correctly awarded.

also, his composure on these PKs is something not to be scoffed at. Whole stadium of sporting fans booing him and he kept his nerve, just as he did in olimpico in rome last week. These are the high pressure situations that give our players the experience + confidence necessary to deliver in WC stage.

SC did well just to stare him out.

BTW anyone have a clip of the Taremi clearance at the end?

Reminded me of Steven Gerrard's staredown with Everton fans at Stretford End.

Does anyone know what Marchesin did to SC to be relegated just for cup ties?

He always seems so much more confident and his judgment better than the other kid.

Feel sorry for him, he's a great keeper.

I love Marche and he's a much better keeper today than Diego Costa. It's just that Diego Costa is young and being groomed as Portugal's next NT keeper. So I think Porto is showcasing him (earlier than he deserves) to garner interest for a big sale (since Porto is broke).

Taremi's penalty kick record remains at 100%, 7 for Porto and 2 for Rio Ave. The Stats keep piling up. The making of a legend happens this way. Step by step and then people notice every where.

Go Mehdi!

These flares were thrown at the home goal during the first half. Pretty crazy. Probably trying to psyche out Porto, and also make it hard to see on this side of the pitch. Pretty below the belt from the fans imo.

[Tarsal Claw]

One of the best highlights is his bicycle kick clearance! What a stud!

Hope coach didn't play him 90 min to bench him in EL, even though the game is on Thursday. Rather he sit this weekend

Their next game is on sunday 6th of march against Paccos Ferriera . The EL game is on Wednesday 9th of march against lyon. So hopefully SC can rest mehdi on sunday.

In how many games? (overall?)

Javad Nekounam is really forgotten here.

8 years in Spain when the Spanish league was widely considered the best league in the world (Real and Barca were the biggest clubs in the world and Villareal, Sevilla and Valencia were giants).

Agree. But I'd put Taremi above Javad. I'd put Javad a little ahead of Mehdi.
