Porto Alanza

**Porto Alanza** was an American soccer team and political coalition created by Miggy Márquez to prevent the qualification of Ana Sophia for the **2020 KOVO Champions Cup**. In addition, it was funded by the **KOVO Federation** in an effort to also halt foreign sports team participations to favor American teams for the increase of revenue and replacement of natural gene athletes in favor of genetically modified athletes. Porto Alanza would continue to serve its purpose of temporarily hiring top elite athletes to compete against other teams the federations deemed undesirable to their economic favor until its dissolution in late 2020.

## Campaigns

### Ana Sophia campaign

In **Chapter 12: What It Is**, Porto Alanza makes an appearance in ***Darlin'*** as a debuting team that quickly worries Ana Sophia as she learns Palmeiras will face Porto Alanza in the knockout phase of her dream competition. Although the club is new, she learns that her best friends Emma, Julie and Enzo all feature for the club during the draw on live TV. With a jump in events until the day of her match against Porto Alanza, we learn that Porto Alanza is a team representing the United States.

Porto Alanza in **Chapter 14: Little Dark Age** features a lineup of Miggy as team captain and center forward, Enzo as a winger, Emma & Julie as central midfielders, in front of Matilda as a central defender tasked with marking Ana Sophía. The club would successfully establish Matilda as Player of the Match after her 3-1 victory over Ana Sophía, in which she would score the 3rd goal of the match in the 88' minute. Miggy would also reveal to Ana Sophía that an overwhelming majority of the Porto Alanza players are designer babies. Although Enzo was not classified as one, he would be found doping to have excelled his performance during the matchup. Miggy remained the only player in the match to not consume enhanced performing drugs. With the club's victory in Brazil, the club was granted a spot in the **2020 KOVO Champions Cup**. Despite never learning its fate, Matilda would assert the position of captain and face of the club ahead of its future competitions.

### Adaptive style

Although some argue Ana Sophía's very poor performance during their face-off led to the victory of Porto Alanza, it is described by Ana Sophía that Miggy's well conducted style of play tactics handed Porto Alanza the win. He organized the team during the match using his **adaptive rotation** tactic, a movement sequence formation Miggy believed was necessary to frustrate Brazilian captain Ana Sophía and her decisions to rearrange her own midfield colleagues in order to defend firmly. The adaptive rotation tactic was centered around no player having a permanent position in the match, instead, the player would rotate into a different position constantly throughout the entirety of the match. Ana Sophía herself expresses concern as she realizes that Porto Alanza begins to do upon the initiation of the match in **CH 14: Little Dark Age**.
