Golden Greenery

　　The predecessor of the Club World Cup was the "Intercontinental Cup", a commercial event that began in 1960. It was renamed the "Toyota Cup" after being exclusively sponsored by Japanese companies in 1980.

　　 In 2005, FIFA officially brought this European and American football matchup under its banner, not only making it an official endorsement of the game, but also expanding the scale of the competition to the world.

　　 Quantity is far less important than quality. As South American stars accelerate to Europe, the strength of the two clubs is no longer on the same level. The competition of the Club World Cup is far less than the previous Toyota Cup.

Although the Champions League champions against the South American Libertadores Cup champions, although they can’t be said to have a grip, there have also been three accidental mistakes in the loss of Liverpool to Sao Paulo in 2005, the loss of Madibao to Brazil International in 2006, and the loss of Chelsea to Corinthians in 2012. In mind, the Club World Cup with the title of'World Champion' is the least difficult competition among all major trophies for the Champions League champions.

　　 The World Super Cup is far less difficult to play than the European Super Cup and the domestic Super Cup, and the opponents are one level lower.

　　 Brazil International in 2010 and Atlético Mineiro in 2013, as well as last year's Medellin National Sports and even the semi-finals, failed to reach the Champions League champions.

　　 In addition, the championship bonus is not attractive at all. To be honest, the European champions don't pay much attention to the Club World Cup.

　　 However, Manchester City, the 2017 Champions League champions, attaches great importance to the Club World Cup. The first time in his life is only one aspect, and more importantly, because the Club World Cup is held in Abu Dhabi.

　　 The Emirate of Abu Dhabi is the largest tribe in the United Arab Emirates, covering 87% of the entire UAE. Abu Dhabi is the capital of the Emirate and the capital of the UAE.

　　 Abu Dhabi and Dubai are similar to Beijing and Shanghai in China, New Delhi and Mumbai in India, and Berlin and Munich in Germany.

　　 The owner of the Manchester City Club is the Abu Dhabi Consortium, and Sheikh Mansour is the fifth prince of the Abu Dhabi royal family. Therefore, Manchester City's participation in the Club World Cup this time is equivalent to returning to their hometown to show their skills.

　　 The day after the Manchester City Derby, the Manchester City team arrived in Abu Dhabi by special plane. There is no winter break in the Premier League. For the Club World Cup, Manchester City's 17th and 18th league rounds have been postponed.

　　 However, Manchester City, which has 46 points in the 16 rounds, has secured the half-time champion in advance. Although Manchester United still ranked second after losing, the difference with Manchester City has widened to double-digit 11 points.

　　 Afterwards, Chelsea 32, Liverpool 30, Arsenal 29, Tottenham 28, BIG6 neatly. Leicester City ranked eighth with only 23 points, just half of Manchester City's, and the Premier League's strengths and weaknesses are intensifying.

　　 The boss pays attention to it means that everyone pays attention to it. Zhuo Yang also wants the Club World Cup very much. There are already six Champions Leagues and only two of them in the Club World Cup. The contrast is a bit big.

　　 One was the Boca win with AC Milan in Yokohama in 2007, and the other was the lying win given to him by Real Madrid in 2014, which is exactly the same as the lying win at London Bridge Hospital.

　　Nurai Water Villas are not good, they are definitely luxurious enough, but they are relatively scattered and inconvenient for team management. The Manchester City team stayed at the eight-star and eight-diamond Abu Dhabi Palace Hotel. The full Arabian wind brought a group of European turtles back to the Alibaba era.

　　.

　　 There are actually seven teams in the Club World Cup with four rounds of matches, but the Champions League and Copa Libertadores do not need to play the qualifying matches and 1/4, but start directly from the semi-finals, and only need to play two games before and after.

　　 Excluding Europe and South America, there are also Asia, Central and North America and the Caribbean, Oceania, Africa, six championships plus the host wild card teams, a total of seven.

　　 When Manchester City and South American champion Gremio arrived, the first two rounds of the Club World Cup were over. The host Abu Dhabi Peninsula Club, also called Al-Jazira, first defeated the Oceania champion Auckland City from New Zealand 1-0 in the qualifying round, and then won the Asian 1-0 in the 1/4 The champion Urawa Red Diamonds broke into the semifinals and walked to Manchester City.

　　 This year, the Chinese Super League team performed generally in the AFC. Shanghai SIPG eliminated Jiangsu Suning and Guangzhou Evergrande all the way, and was defeated by the Urawa Red Diamonds in the semi-finals.

　　 And the North American champion Pachuca from Mexico defeated the African champion Casablanca of Morocco 1-0 in 1/4 and came in front of Gremio.

　　 There are a total of 12 teams in the UAE Premier League, five each in Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Just like their country, except for these two cities, there is nothing left.

The United Arab Emirates and the national football team are old opponents, but because the two teams are not divided into the same group in the 2018 World Preliminary, regardless of the top 40 or the top 12, Zhuo Yang is quite unfamiliar with the UAE players, let alone Abramovich in Abu Dhabi. Dhabi peninsula.

　　 But the player does not know one, but there is no shortage of acquaintances. The head coach of the Peninsula team is the former chief assistant coach of the Chinese team and Dutchman Henk Tencart.

　　 Tencart once assisted Rijkaard in the Dutch national team and Barcelona. In 2008, he came to the Chinese national team with Jie Shuai.

　　 After returning from the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, Jie Shuai's entire coaching staff has renewed their contract and increased their salary, but a year later Tencart showed his solo thoughts.

　　 If it weren't for Zhuo Yang's words, Tencart would not be able to leave. The Chinese are good at earning money, but they don't just open their mouths if they want to breach the contract.

　　 In October 2011, Tencart left the national football coaching staff, his chief assistant was replaced by Sforza, and Vones was also added to the coaching staff.

　　 Tenkater was first hired by the Qatar Umm Salal Club with a high salary, and then went to Shandong Luneng the following year, but was fired because of his poor record before finishing a season.

　　 Later, Tenkater returned to the Netherlands to coach Sparta Rotterdam, and came to the UAE last year to pick up the pointer of the Abu Dhabi Peninsula.

　　 The Premier League is a cross-year league. Tenkater showed his coaching skills here. He led the peninsula to win the 2016-17 Premier League championship and doubled the League Cup, so he was fortunate to participate in the Club World Cup as a foreign card.

　　 is an old friend who is credited to Chinese football. After Zhuo Yang and Tenkate met, they talked a few words in person. They were well-mannered but not very nutritious.

　　 And the coaching of the Abu Dhabi Peninsula U23 youth team is not mortal. The former Serie A and Premier League star, Romanian "Viper" Adrian Mutu and Tenkat became subordinates in January this year. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

　　 Mutu is 39 years old and only retired last summer. He was unlucky, unable to write two "Mu" characters in a stroke, but he was the first star in the world to turn his face with Mourinho, and was subsequently expelled from Chelsea for smoking D products.

　　 I went to Juventus and Fiorentina to play well, but Mutu couldn't figure it out, so he sued Chelsea. The result angered Abramovich, Chelsea collected evidence and counterclaimed Mutu, demanding him to compensate the club for 28 million losses.

　　 The FIFA Dispute Resolution Tribunal supported Chelsea’s evidence and ruled that Mutu compensated Chelsea for 17,173,990 euros, which is a total of zero, and there is an annual interest of 5%, starting from September 2008.

　　 Mutu is a prodigal son, he was as poor as a lamp before he retired. The highest annual salary when he played was 3.35 million Euros before taxes at Chelsea.

　　 Nine years have passed, and Mutu can't afford to pay a penny, but the compensation has reached 24 million euros with interest. In nine years, Mutu could only delay debts by relying on continuous appeals, and he has almost used all the courts that can appeal.

　　 After the CAS appeal was rejected two months ago, Mutu is now preparing to go to the Swiss Federal Supreme Court next year and the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) the following year. In this way, at least another two to three years can be delayed.

　　 Abu Dhabi is really a good place, suitable for drunken lives and dreams.
