Chapter 118 118 The Battle of Tianwang Mountain (1)

费耶诺德在主场绝杀瓦尔韦克之后，联赛积分榜达到了43分，积分榜排名上升到了第4位，和排名第3的海伦芬同积43分。而19日当天埃因霍温在客场0比3输给了格罗宁根，这样联赛积分榜上埃因霍温的积分依然是45分。现在费耶诺德与榜首的埃因霍温仅仅只差2个积分了。

So this game can be described as the battle of Tianwang Mountain.Eindhoven will temporarily give up the top spot if they lose.

Facing Feyenoord, which has won four consecutive victories, Eindhoven has a double match a week. They will also play a Europa League game at home on the 24th to face the visiting local super giant Trabzonspor.And the 26th is the battle against Feyenoord's Tianwangshan, which is extremely unfavorable for Eindhoven's physical fitness.

The last time Feyenoord played against Eindhoven was in December last year. At that time, Feyenoord had just returned to winning form and beat Eindhoven 12-2 at home.This time, Feyenoord's momentum is high, with the momentum of 0 consecutive victories against Eindhoven, which has double matches in a week, and it stands to reason that the outcome should be 4-[-].However, several major sports media in the Netherlands, including betting agencies, are unanimously optimistic about Eindhoven, which makes everyone very incomprehensible.

Later, before the game, a reporter from the Dutch sports newspaper interviewed the head coach of Eindhoven and asked: "Many media and organizations in this game are optimistic about Eindhoven. What do you think makes Eindhoven so confident in defeating Feyenoord, which has won four consecutive victories?"

Eindhoven's head coach replied easily: "This is an obvious thing. We are better than Feyenoord in every position, isn't it? As long as you play hard, winning is obvious."

On February 2, Eindhoven beat Trabzonspor 24-4 at home.After the game, Coach Koeman immediately organized the players to the tactical training room to designate countermeasures for the game the day after tomorrow based on Eindhoven's tactical system.

In fact, from the personal point of view of coach Koeman, Eindhoven's lineup is indeed much more luxurious than Feyenoord's, and the lineup is also much thicker.

For example, PSV Eindhoven's forward high center forward Toivonen is in hot form, and Mertens is also in full swing this season. In addition, Matavs' speed on the wing is also a concern for opponents.Furthermore, there are talented players Wijnaldum and Rabiat in the midfield, veteran Strootman in defense in the midfield, and Englar and Hutkinson on the midfield bench. These are all excellent midfielders.Compared with Feyenoord's, it's like heaven and earth. Although Li Feng's condition is good now, he still lacks some experience compared to those players who have been in the field for a long time.

In the tactical training room, Coach Koeman said to his players: "This time I may be relatively conservative. Last time we played at home and had a physical advantage, so we were able to win that game. This time it is the battle for the top spot. Eindhoven just lost to Groningen in the league. They are definitely not willing to lose to us in this game at home. Therefore, my goal for this game is to keep a tie and win."

Hearing this, both Li Feng and Klassie felt that Coach Coman was spoiling his prestige by making others arrogant.They were able to beat them 2-0 at home before, how could it be impossible to win them away this time.

Koeman had a panoramic view of the expressions on the faces of the players sitting below.Seeing that none of them spoke, he went on to say: "If you are all very confident in what I said just now, you should collectively oppose me. But none of you raised any doubts. From your heart, you have already lost to Eindhoven in terms of confidence. This is why I have to choose a conservative strategy."

Klassie interjected at this time: "Coach, I wanted to say something just now, but no one else responded, so I didn't say it. We don't need PSV. We won against Twente, Ajax, and PSV. Why are we afraid this time? I really don't understand."

At this time, Li Feng and other teammates began to express their opinions and opinions in a hurry.Coach Koeman waited patiently for them to release their emotions.When no one said anything more, Coach Koeman said: "This game is a key game for the championship. It is impossible for them to admit defeat easily, unless you have a stronger performance."

"We have! We are champions! Beat Eindhoven!" All the players shouted in unison at this moment.

No one wants to admit that they are inferior to others, especially football players.

"Okay, since you are confident, let me make some tactical arrangements."

"In the last round of the game, Goodetti was sent off with a red card, so he can't play this game. We lacked a strong point on the front line, so this time we had to change the lineup. I arranged the lineup the day after tomorrow: G. Fernandez and Shaken form a double arrow on the front line. You must run flexibly in the frontcourt, and someone will send you shells in the back. In the midfield, Li Feng and Clasi are the avant-garde. The two of you can take turns to strengthen the frontcourt. Double midfielders, strengthen the defense, the responsibility of the two midfielders is very important, whether you can stop PSV's attack depends on your performance. On the defense line, Switz and Nerome are still separated on both sides, Indi and Lierdam are in the middle. The goalkeeper is still Dali. This time the formation had to be changed because Goodetti was unable to play." Coach Koeman said really.

After Coach Koeman made the tactical arrangement, he asked the players to train for the final tactical drill, and did not let them rest until Coach Koeman was satisfied with the players' performance.

As for the battle of Tianwangshan, the speculation in Eindhoven and Rotterdam was very hot.Many PSV fans were unable to book tickets for this match.This battle for the top spot is as hot as the previous derby.So it was hard to get a ticket for this game.Because of this, Pilar had to watch the game with his sister in a football bar in Rotterdam.He really wanted to go to Eindhoven to support Li Feng, but Li Feng couldn't do anything, the team couldn't apply for so many tickets.

After Chen Shihan completed her thesis defense, she rushed to Rotterdam immediately, and accompanied Li Feng to the competition in Eindhoven.

On February 2, PSV played against Feyenoord at home.The battle of Tianwang Mountain is finally about to begin.

Eindhoven also rested some of their main players in the last round of the Europa League, and they are also bound to win this game.Eindhoven has not won the Eredivisie championship since the 2007-2008 season. The expectation of this veteran Eredivisie giant for the Eredivisie championship this season is unimaginable to anyone.So this game is not for them.
