Chapter 1021 "Top of the World"

The average temperature in the UAE is high all year round, so when Europe has entered the cold winter, the local temperature in Abu Dhabi is still more than ten degrees at night, which is very suitable for players to play.

The audience at the scene were extremely enthusiastic. After all, they had a local team that reached the semi-finals of the Club World Cup.

When Liverpool played the Club World Cup last year, Japan's local team reached the final. This year, the UAE's local team reached the semi-finals. It inevitably makes the outside world suspect that the host has received favorable treatment.

However, even if FIFA has some tricks behind the scenes, they dare not mess around with the defending champion Liverpool. They know very well that the real signature of the Club World Cup is the European champion. If there is no European champion to play with champions from other continents, the Club World Cup will exist in name only. up.

The Abu Dhabi Peninsula team is naturally unknown. If it weren't for the Club World Cup, 99% of the fans around the world might not know that there is such a team.

Liverpool dispatched an overall rotation lineup in the semi-finals, and the Abu Dhabi Peninsula as a whole put on a tenacious posture to face Liverpool.

But when the game started, even Liverpool, who had a substitute rotation lineup, had the initiative and an almost crushing advantage in the game!
The Abu Dhabi Peninsula could barely get a shot on goal.

Sancho and Madison were very active in the game. If Mbappe was the strongest player in Liverpool's team in the first half of the season, then Madison and Sancho made the most obvious progress. On the road in Abu Dhabi, Situ Yunbing had a long talk with him. The general content was to expect Guendouzi to be more active and stable. The positive is the attitude, and the stable is the performance. Otherwise, he will play in Liverpool. The outlook will be very gloomy.

It can't be said that he didn't make progress, it can only be said that he really didn't surprise Situ Yunbing.

Abu Dhabi Peninsula declared the city gate lost after resisting Liverpool for nearly 30 minutes. Under the background of frequent defenses, their defense appeared flawed, and then Madison sent a pass to Griezmann. Assisted, Griezmann, who shot homeopathically in the penalty area, sent the ball into the near corner of the goal.

Liverpool took the lead.

The local fans in the stands were somewhat disappointed, but they would not be too harsh on how strong the Abu Dhabi Peninsula must be.

If they can be upset today, it is definitely not how well they played, but it must be that Liverpool played too badly!
When Liverpool's performance was slightly higher than the standard line, there was almost no suspense for Liverpool to win the game.

Before the end of the first half, Griezmann responded to Sancho's pass at the front of the penalty area, and sent the ball directly into the upper right corner of the goal with a wave of shots!

Griezmann's performance won the cheers of many fans at the scene.

Liverpool basically sealed the victory!

With the strength of the Abu Dhabi Peninsula, it is difficult to break through Liverpool's goal. There is no advantage in terms of confrontation or speed, so there is no need to compare technical and tactical strength.

However, the Abu Dhabi Peninsula still has dreams. In the second half, they fought back vigorously. In the context of active attack, Liverpool quickly resolved the battle.

In the 51st minute of the game, Griezmann assisted Sane in the frontcourt to complete a single goal!

10 minutes later, Sancho broke into the penalty area and passed back to the right side of the penalty area to assist Griezmann with a goal hat-trick!
The Abu Dhabi peninsula was besieged. Perhaps they thought they had seen the strongest strength in Europe. In fact, Liverpool may not have even displayed half of their abilities.

The gap between European and Asian football is not what it looks like on paper, let alone the gap in comprehensive skills and tactics.

Abu Dhabi Peninsula's comeback momentum evaporated after falling behind by four goals.

But Liverpool didn't stop, because the players wanted to perform.

In the 78th minute of the game, Guerrero assisted and assisted Madison with a long shot before the penalty area!

Liverpool slaughtered the Abu Dhabi Peninsula 5:0!
After Liverpool won the tickets to the Club World Cup final, Situ Yunbing gave the hosts a lot of face. When commenting on them, he said a lot of positive comments. At the same time, he also encouraged them to work hard to improve their level and participate in more high-level competitions in the future.

After three days of rest, Liverpool will play the Club World Cup with the Copa Libertadores champion Gremio!
There are basically no stars in South America. Either the local stars return to their roots to retire, or some players who cannot be favored by the first-tier European clubs stay in the country to make a living.

Whether it is Brazil, Argentina, or the Copa Libertadores, the gold content is actually declining year by year.

It's like looking at Gremio's lineup this year, none of which is worth more than 500 million euros!
And they are the champions of the Copa Libertadores!
Competent players will go abroad. Whether it is going to Eastern Europe, West Asia for gold, or landing in the five major leagues to seek higher achievements and benefits, it is much better than staying in China.

Basically, talented players can't stay when they are allowed to transfer abroad at the age of 18.

It's not easy for Brazil to produce another Neymar!

Moreover, there is no such situation that Pele was banned from transferring to Brazil 60 years ago by the country.

The prosperity of European football has just promoted the decline of South American football, and now South American football is one of the talent training bases for European football.

Before the Club World Cup final, Situ Yunbing was asked in a pre-match interview whether he knew Gremio, and he said frankly: "I don't follow South American football, but I watched some Gremio games before the game, because There wasn't enough time, so the knowledge wasn't too deep, and some of their players had impressive individual quality."

At this point, Situ Yunbing stopped abruptly.

The European media will not let go of any opportunity to promote the superiority of European football, so a reporter immediately asked: "Do you think Gremio has players who can play the main force in Liverpool?"

Situ Yunbing shook his head and said: "I don't want to make such an assumption, because this question is somewhat misleading. Excluding fame and attractiveness, Liverpool is obviously stronger financially than Gremio. There are many teams.

Brazil's talented players are often taken away by European teams around the age of 18, with Pato in the front and Neymar in the back. This summer, Real Madrid locked Vinicius ahead of schedule with 4500 million euros, even if the player is only 17 age.

When you ask me if there are any players in Gremio who can play the main force in Liverpool, you are asking me if there are any buried talents in Gremio!

Because once they have a player who shows extraordinary strength or talent, it is not Liverpool's turn. Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Italy and Portugal, which are more influential in South America, will scramble to take the player away!
It is impossible for this player to stay at Gremio. "

Situ Yunbing didn't want to start a war!

Especially the competition with Gremio is just a tasteless Club World Cup, what good is it to offend them?

After tomorrow night's game, they will part ways. The next meeting may be at least 20, 30, [-] years away!
Although the European journalists failed, Situ Yunbing's answer made many South American journalists look sad.

Because Situ Yunbing uttered a bleak reality.

No team in South America can say no to the sky-high transfer fees offered by European giants!
Not really!
So regardless of whether European teams are interested in their talents or parallel imports, they will bargain to maximize their profits, and then send the players away and kick the cash in their pockets.

If things go on like this, the decline of South American football has become an inevitable trend!

Situ Yunbing did not show off his power to Gremio, so he got some favor from the South American media.

Even in the past years of the Club World Cup, Situ Yunbing led his team to defeat the South American champion.

But this is the strongest comparison of basic strength. Liverpool is too strong, and the strength of the South American champion is relatively weaker and weaker.

On the day of the match, the venue was full of seats, and the local fans still expected to witness the fierce battle between the European champion and the South American champion on the "Top of the World".

There are a lot of chiefs or invisible rich people sitting in the VIP box, and there is no shortage of wealthy benefactors here!

Liverpool sent a full lineup to face the Club World Cup final.

Gremio also deployed their strongest lineup.

When the game started, the trend of the game under the eyes of all the audience had a very intuitive feeling. The European champion pulled the rhythm of the game, which made the South American champion at a loss. At the same time, the South American champion was at a disadvantage in the confrontation. , they will commit more fouls than usual.

South American players pay more attention to the characteristics of foot skills, which was also reflected in the game.

Small skills allow them to have unexpected effects when they get rid of or break through in place, but Liverpool is more tactical. Even if they cannot steal the ball immediately, they will delay the opponent's counterattack and make Gremio's counterattack into a position. war!
In this way, Gremio's offensive threat was cut in half first.

Playing against Gremio, Liverpool should still give full play to their advantages as much as possible.

In the 26th minute of the game, after Mbappe's cross from the side was sent to the middle of the penalty area, Lewandowski took advantage of the confrontation to seize a favorable position, then took off and shook his head to attack the goal and headed the ball into the upper right corner of the goal.

Liverpool go first!
Gremio's defender was very aggrieved, had no advantage in the confrontation, and could not foul, so he could only watch the Liverpool center forward the ball into the goal.

Lewandowski's fulcrum role became more prominent in the following games.

In the 34th minute of the game, he attracted several players to defend at the front of the penalty area, and then passed the ball back to Casemiro, who made an offensive diversion. Gareth Bale dribbled the ball from the left to the bottom line The ball swept the front of the goal, and Mbappe quickly followed up and rushed to the goal to score a goal!
Liverpool had already crushed Gremio's defense before they had even played the powerful threat of a full-back assist!
