Rebirth 1994: Football Situation

Chapter 599 Europe Chapter 2003 Another Red Card

Although they were classified into the death group, the fans of Newcastle did not show too much disappointment because of this. After all, for Newcastle's current status, any team participating in the Champions League must go all out. And in this group, Newcastle is not without a chance to qualify. Apart from Real Madrid, Newcastle is fully capable of defeating the other two teams. What's more, even against Real Madrid, Newcastle is not without a fight. force.

Of course, this is what the local media in Newcastle said. Inside Newcastle, the players are gearing up and waiting for the upcoming Champions League. You know, this is also a good opportunity for them to make a name for themselves.

After finishing their respective trips to the national team, the players returned to Newcastle to start training. Although they seemed a little tired after going back and forth, they were still energetic and waiting for the start of the game.

The ten players introduced by Newcastle this season are all powerful players who have already gained a certain reputation in Europe, but except for Ibrahimovic and Trabelsi who have won the Eredivisie, Kufuor has won the Bundesliga and Mark Apart from La Liga and Champions League titles with Real Madrid, Lelei has not won any significant championships in the club, including Lucio who has won the World Cup - so they also hope to be able to win in the championship. A breakthrough in the cup!

However, although the players are high-spirited, Mourinho has to consider their physical fitness. This year, there are [-] international players in the Newcastle team, and they are basically the main players. They will return to the country in a week. How well the team can maintain their physical condition after a fierce game is still a mystery.

At this time, those players who are not international players are more trustworthy. After all, they have had a good rest for a week and have no physical problems.

Therefore, in the fourth round of the league, Mourinho put Nie Fei, Ibrahimovic, Lucio, Trabelsi, Hart and other main international players in the stands, and sent Ji Wen, Kufuer, Dawson and so on. , Woodgate, Bernard, Speed, Janus, Robert, Dyer, Shearer and Bellamy, this lineup has played a good role. As if to prove something, Robert made two fine breaks in the first and second half, both of which Shearer made, and then he scored the third goal with a beautiful volley in front of the penalty area. Newcastle beat Everton [-]-[-] in an away game and jumped to fourth place with nine points. Everton's Chinese player Li Gang did not play in this game due to injury.

After winning this game, Newcastle can finally calm down and concentrate on preparing for the upcoming group match against Porto at home.

After this game, Newcastle has both good news and bad news. The good news is that through two penalties in the last game, Shearer has become No.1 in the Premier League scorer list this season. This is since he quit the England national team. It is the first time, but it is worth mentioning that the other player who scored five goals with him and tied for the first place in the scorer list is also a veteran. Shearer's striker partner in the England national team in the 96 European Championship was 37 years old. Veteran Sheringham, who scored five goals in four league games after helping newly promoted Portsmouth beat Bolton [-]-[-] after scoring a hat-trick, couldn't help but be amazed.

The bad news also came from Shearer. After the game against Everton, Shearer felt a little unwell. After examination, it was proved that Shearer had a slight muscle strain in his right leg. Although it was not serious, he would definitely miss the Champions League home game against Porto. In the first game of the Champions League, losing his top scorer in the first game of the Champions League is not good news for Newcastle.

The opponent is Porto. There is not much difference between Mourinho and Newcastle players. It is just a Champions League group match. Even if Mourinho is Portuguese, it does not mean that he I just have a special feeling for Porto, but for Pei Wei, this game is worth pondering.

In history, Mourinho can be said to have started in Porto. It took two years to bring this old team, which had been reduced to No. The UEFA Cup double, followed by a league, Champions League and domestic cup treble the following year - directly catapulted Mourinho to fame as the leader of Europe's new generation of young coaches.

However, now, Mourinho did not go to Porto, and stayed in China for three years, and he is still unknown to the public. Although Porto won the league championship last year after hiring the former Spanish national team coach Camacho, they failed. Won the UEFA Cup, without the command of Mourinho and the core midfielder Deco, the current Porto is not the Porto that won this year's Champions Cup in history.

Some of my own actions have shattered the myth of the first dark horse in European football since it entered the new century. , Germany, France, Netherlands) team identity won the Champions League thing may never happen again.

Even after Ajax won the championship in 95, the Champions League only cared about the exchange between the four major league teams of England, West and Germany. Now, it is estimated that they have no such opportunity.

"Since the opponent is Porto...Jose, then take this victory as your glorious starting point. Whether Porto succeeds or not is none of my business, but your success is closely related to me."

**************************************
As a strong team in the Portuguese League, although Deco has long been dug into the Chinese League by Pei Wei and joined the Chinese nationality, their strength is still strong, which can be seen from their starting lineup in this game, The goalkeeper is the former main goalkeeper of the Portuguese national team. Baia was once known as one of the best goalkeepers in Europe in Barcelona. The four defenders are Paulo Ferreira, Carvalho and Jorge Kos from right to left. Ta and Valente, a standard defensive line of the Portuguese national team, the midfielders are Maniche and Costinha, the two attacking midfielders are Mendes and Russian international Alenichev, and the front line is It is partnered by South African striker McCarthy and Brazilian Del Rey. Although two main players have been poached this year, right forward Quaresma was bought by Barcelona, ​​and striker Postiga was bought by Tottenham, but their overall strength is not the same. Not much affected.

For the opponent's lineup, Mourinho arranged a four-three-three lineup to attack. Goalkeeper Given, defenders Trabelsi, Woodgate, Lucio and Bernard, double midfielders Makelele and Jena Adams, forward midfielder Nie Fei, Robert as the left forward, and Viduka and Ibrahimovic as the striker. It seems that although the opponent's tactics are to strengthen the middle, Mourinho's tactics are still bold - that is, to attack the middle and break through. Your strongest point, come to win!
Failed to play in the league for three consecutive games (suspended for two games, because he participated in the national team and also failed to play in the last round of the league), which made Ibrahimovic very depressed. As Newcastle's biggest move in the summer (2000 million in 500 to buy Ibrahimovic and Trabelsi in a package, even if Trabelsi is worth 700 million, then Ibrahimovic is worth at least [-] million, higher than Nie Fei and Lucio) , played three games, but only contributed one indirect assist and one direct assist, which is obviously a loss.

It is precisely because of this that Ibrahimovic is eager to prove himself in the game. After the game started, he was extremely active on the court, frequently withdrawing from the penalty area to ask for the ball, and then used his technique, speed and Strength continued to torment Porto's defenders.

However, Porto's defense line, which is all composed of Portuguese national players, will naturally not be all ordinary people. When Ibrahimovic has too many balls, they immediately start to use double teams to deal with Ibrahimovic. This also failed to completely contain Ibrahimovic's offense, because Ibrahimovic is not a player who can only dribble the ball. On the contrary, it is Ibrahimovic who can help his teammates attack by dividing the ball while attracting enough defensive forces from the opponent. The biggest feature of cloth.

No. In the 208th minute, Ibrahimovic and Nie Fei made two consecutive beautiful one-twos and then used an acrobatic heel pick to get rid of Carvalho's defense, and then passed the ball to the goal with an exquisite oblique pass. On the left side of the penalty area, Robert, who inserted the ball at high speed, directly passed the ball to the goal. Viduka beat Costa with a header from six meters in front of the goal!

"Viduka scored a goal! A powerful header! But Ibrahimovic's performance before this was even more refreshing!" Williams shouted loudly: "Although he did not directly participate in this goal, But no one can deny his role in this goal!"

Ibrahimovic pouted, what he wanted was not only this.

In the next game, Ibrahimovic played even harder, Newcastle also completely controlled the situation on the field, and suppressed Porto at home, but Ibrahimovic's luck today is still not very good , A few shots either missed or were bravely saved by goalkeeper Baia.

After wasting a lot of opportunities, Newcastle still expanded the score in the second half. After receiving Ibrahimovic's goal, Nie Fei broke through the defense of the opponent's two defenders from the side, and then cleverly distributed the ball near the baseline. Janus, who made the assist, volleyed and broke the net 13 meters in front of the goal. It was [-]-[-]. Newcastle basically confirmed the victory of the game.

But Ibrahimovic received another red card, although this red card was a bit wronged - he had already received a yellow card for his excessive action in the first half, and he was also given a yellow card because of an attack in the frontcourt before the end of the second half. He was sent off with a second yellow card for raising his foot too high-although Newcastle still won the game, but Ibrahimovic's goal will be delayed for a while.

PS: I fell to eighth place...God, God and God, please give me a monthly pass!
