Football: The butcher in the midfield at the start, the magic bird stunned

Chapter 134 Prepare for the Battle of the Giants!Special training for the soul of the Roma team!

At the beginning of the second half, at the behest of Mourinho, the two wing backs of Roma made more assists.

The main reason is that Udinese had too few effective attacks in the first half. He wanted to further test the ability to resist high pressure under the three-back system through actual combat.

Sure enough, Udinese took advantage of the vacuum on the side of Roma and took the opportunity to launch a counterattack from the side. After the opening of the second half, they played several positional battles initiated from the side.

In the 47th minute, Puseto made a cross from the right and went straight out of the bottom line.

In the 50th minute, Udinese's Brazilian central defender Becao pressed forward and shot high from outside the penalty area.

However, Udinese's offense is limited to this.

Without an absolute speed advantage, and not daring to face strong physical confrontation, Udinese could only play a high pass from the wing, and then the ball went to the penalty area and it was ignored because there was no strong high center forward.

The opponent's performance not only made the Roma players on the field, but also the substitute players on the bench sigh. The three-pointer against Verona in the last game really shouldn't be lost.

But Rome is not without its own dangers.

Fans often hear a word called "wealthy background", but often this term seems very mysterious and ethereal.

For some first-tier clubs, it is a kind of thing that you think you have, but you don’t, or you may find that you do have it, but others have more.

Inevitably connected with the background is history, the background of a wealthy family needs a long time to accumulate.

During this process, the club will face a series of pressures, including economic pressure, competitive pressure, fan pressure, public opinion pressure, and internal operational pressure.

When a club overcomes all of these and continues to achieve success, the foundation is born.

But the foundation is something that will be consumed. It has its resilience and will not disappear in an instant, but it will gradually become fragile and blurred due to the failure of the club.

To give the best example, it is Liverpool in the Premier League.

The former overlord of England, in the 1977 years from 1985 to 9, entered 5 European finals, which was also called the European Champions Cup at that time, and won 4 championships. Coincidentally, the last time he won the championship was in 1984 when he defeated the Roma team at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. .

If it weren't for the Heysel tragedy in 1985, they probably would have won all five.

However, because of this tragedy, all English teams were punished and banned from participating in the three major European cups for five years, causing a group of golden-age players to miss the Champions League platform and never have the opportunity to continue their glory.

Coupled with the subsequent restructuring of the Premier League, Manchester United rose completely, and Liverpool's decline lasted for nearly 30 years.

Although there are occasional flashes in the middle, it is always difficult to stand on the honor roll stably and continuously.

But the background of the rich and powerful still shows up in this club all the time.

No matter how successful Arsenal and Chelsea were, the Double Reds will be the most important derby in England.

No matter how bad the league results are, there are always players and coaches who are willing to go there, and capital and sponsors are also willing to spend money to invest.

Even in the most chaotic period, teams like Everton and Tottenham climbed to the top of Liverpool, and the halo of the giants still shone on the club until John Henry took over Liverpool and invited Klopp.

Just imagine, Klopp, who led a team of Hornets to the Champions League final in Dortmund, is one of the most important reasons for choosing Liverpool, isn't it because it is a giant?

The dazzling honors of the ancestors have accumulated a super solid foundation for Liverpool, which can withstand 30 years of tossing.

Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest, who also won the Champions League, quickly disappeared from everyone because the honor came too short and the background accumulation was seriously insufficient.

From this point of view, it is easy to understand why clubs like Real Madrid and Bayern are always successful, because they not only have a strong background, but also rely on the huge advantages brought by this background to always attract people from all over the world. The best player, and continues to be successful.

And Manchester United, which has been in trouble since Sir Alex Ferguson retired, has been called "Manchester" in recent years precisely because although they have a strong background, they have not been on the road to success. When competing for players, players can only be attracted to join through higher quotations and more generous salaries.

Of course, the background is not only reflected off the field, but also in influence, media, fan base, topic discussion, etc. On the field, it will also have a strong psychological deterrent effect on opponents.

For Roma, they obviously have a bit of background, but with the retirement and departure of Totti and De Rossi, the symbols of a generation, the word champion is already a very distant memory, and even many people in the team have no Taste what it's like to win a major title.

When facing the three giants, whether it is the club itself, the fans, or the media, they will think that Roma is a team that is inferior.

How can you win if you feel bad luck before kicking the ball?
Dan Fried paid a lot of money to invite Mourinho, and then spent a lot of money to sign in, just to let this natural winner establish a mentality for this team-a winning mentality, and then through continuous victories, Re-accumulate the background of the team.

At this time on the court, captain Pellegrini was the first to become impatient.

Facing the Udinese players who have avoided the confrontation and the game that is basically sure to win, the correct approach at this moment is to maintain the intensity of this confrontation, give the opponent no hope of counterattack, and then end the game smoothly instead of intensifying the conflict to provoke the opponent .

After all, this is a league, and what is important is to continue to fight and exchange for the most points at the lowest possible cost.

In the 55th minute, in the face of a non-threatening backcourt pass by the opposing Argentine midfielder Roberto Pereira, Pellegrini used excessive physical confrontation and knocked him down directly from behind.

The referee showed a yellow card without hesitation.

Looking at Pellegrini who was swearing, Mourinho immediately let Zaniolo start warming up.

However, only 4 minutes later, after Deulofeu's shot was blocked by Chen Xiaoliang and bounced into the air, Pellegrini and Udoji's raised left elbow hit the back of Udoji's neck when he was fighting for the top in the air.

Udoji fell to the ground immediately after landing, showing the appearance of being severely beaten, rolling in pain.

The referee was on the side, saw it clearly, and decisively showed the second yellow card.

Regardless of how the Roma players appeal, the referee would rather send out another yellow card to drive away the appealing player, and also said that he would not revoke this "absolutely correct" penalty.

Before leaving the field, Pellegrini handed over the captain's armband to Mkhitaryan.

Barrage:

[Pei 7 If it weren't for the youth training in Rome, how could he be the captain? Chen Xiaoliang wouldn't be a hundred times more fragrant as the captain? 】

[No way, Rome has this tradition. The former three captains Totti, De Rossi, and Florenzi were all Italians born in Rome and grew up from the Rome youth academy]

[Four generations of Rome, one generation is not as good as one generation]

[Before the media even claimed that Zaniolo was the Fifth Generation, isn’t that nonsense, he was the captain and the whole team followed him forward? 】

[It was a great victory, but it was disturbed by a red card. It is really unreasonable for Roma to win the championship with these players]

...

Mourinho on the sidelines asked Joao to suspend the substitution.

He didn't say much, just like he was watching Pogba, another player who made him speechless, play tricks on the court.

There is one less player in Rome, and Udinese's morale is boosted.

In the 61st minute, French midfielder Mackengo went straight, and Udoji threw away Trippi and pushed from a small angle, slightly wide of the far post.

In the 67th minute, the French right-wing defender Sopi, who replaced Molina, passed Zalewski on the right and shot slightly higher.

Without the connection of the attacking midfielder in the midfield, within 10 minutes after Pellegrini was sent off, Roma did not organize a threatening ground attack, only relying on Cesco's excellent ability to hold the ball with his back, Two shots were attempted on the long pass.

Under such circumstances, Chen Xiaoliang became busy again, scrambling forward, blocking left, shoveling right, and the midfielder who followed the opponent's attack direction and flew back and forth in the backcourt reappeared.

Udoji just shot?

It seems that your memory of me is a little fuzzy, so I will use a reasonable collision in the air to let you deepen your impression of me.

Did Deulofeu dare to enter the penalty area and try to break through and hit the goal?

Then I will shovel the ball from under your feet in the penalty area, leaving the referee with nothing to say, and making you lose your temper.

The only fly in the ointment is that under such a defensive frequency, he does not have the slightest extra time and space to cross the center line and send an upload for the offensive players.

Udinese coach Luca Gotti wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to play one more man and replaced them with four new players to narrow the score through physical strength.

However, under Chen Xiaoliang's sweep and the three central defenders fighting hard, there was no chance to penetrate through the front except for long shots, and there was no chance to pass in an inverted triangle except for high balls from the side.

"Did he take medicine? Did the pre-match urine test take place?" Luca Gotti was obviously stunned and annoyed by Chen Xiaoliang's performance, as if Pellegrini's stupid red card was to give the midfielder A chance to crazily show his defensive ability.

His assistant Lolieri told him in a low voice that after the match between Rome and Fiorentina in the first round of the league, Fiorentina head coach Italiano yelled after the match to ask the Fair Play Committee to investigate Chen Xiaoliang's urine sample in bottle B, but found nothing. No problem, Italiano was also warned by the league organizing committee for groundlessly accusing professional players of doping at the press conference.

What's more, if Rome really has such a powerful medicine, it won't just give him a 17-year-old teenager from the Red Country...

And it is said that after that game, Chen Xiaoliang also gave Italiano a box of traditional gifts from the Red Kingdom through Florence defender Milenkovic. , Italiano never mentioned doping again...

Modern football, whether it is a professional league, intercontinental cup or national team competition, has fixed urine tests and irregular random checks. What's more, the league cycle is so long, continuous inspections and strict penalties make the possibility of doping almost zero.

Moreover, football is all about teamwork and cooperation. It is useless to take medicine alone. Stimulants can only improve physical strength, and have no effect on improving skills and footwork.

Luca Gotti also knew that he was just annoyed for a while, but the physical fitness and running ability of the kid from the Red Country in front of him really surprised him.

He complained to his assistant Lolieri: "No wonder some media say that he is another Gattuso, Tamade, it is exactly the same, but Gattuso didn't even have half of him when he was 17 years old! If this kid is healthy Kang played until he was 20 years old, and his brain did not short-circuit and did not do what he should not do, and if he polished his skills, he would definitely surpass Gattuso!"

Assistant Llorieri knows that Luca Gotti was transferred to the coaching staff by Italian coach Donadoni as the Italian U2008 head coach in the 17 European Cup, which can be regarded as the same as Gattuso at his peak. have worked together.

The two of them looked at the situation on the court, and their hearts were also confused.

Everyone who could be used was on board, but the tough Red Country midfielder was about to bite his seven-inch nemesis, making this team with a soft midfielder and frontcourt unable to play the offensive cooperation it should have.

In the 73rd minute, Mourinho saw that Udinese's counterattack was blocked, and he also started to rotate.

Zaniolo replaced Abraham, the newly bought 20-year-old American right back Reynolds replaced Mkhitaryan this season, Kristante replaced Weilertu, and Carafioli replaced Zalewski.

The two wingers used newcomers again, and they also wanted to give them another chance to test.

However, what reality gave Mourinho was still disappointment. The sideways guarded by the two teenagers were still bombed by the opponent.

Even Reynolds, who debuted as a right back, is not as defensive as Mkhitaryan, who is already a 32-year-old winger.

Fortunately, Udinese's ability to fight in the penalty area is too weak, and almost all of their repeated header fights ended in failure. But if there is a player like Milenkovic, it is hard to say where the game will go.

In the 88th minute, Roma, who had been defending for a long time, finally had a chance to counterattack. Pereira took a free kick and was blocked by Chen Xiaoliang, who was a human wall.

Unexpectedly, this kick made an urgent clearance and kicked the outer instep, flying far in the air and drawing a strong arc.

In order to score goals, Udinese has already pressed across the board. In the previous 73 minutes, they replaced the captain's central defender Nudinke and replaced them with German midfielder Samara Dech to strengthen midfield control.

At this time, only Udoji is guarding Cesko in front of him...

Cesko had already seen it from the confrontation between Udoji and Chen Xiaoliang. Although this black guy is tough, he was afraid of meeting someone tougher than him.

The two pushed each other and chased towards the center line like a kitchen knife chopping a wire, sparks carrying lightning.

The referee wanted to blow the whistle a few times, but was hesitant because of the concealment and frequent movements of the two of them.

And this kick has a weird arc on the outside of the instep. At first, the ball seemed to fly to the left sideline.

Cesko, who had a tacit understanding with Chen Xiaoliang, sensed the path of the ball in advance. After crossing the center line, he took advantage of Udoji looking up at the ball in front of him and ran to the other side in an instant!
The Udinese left-back ran forward to the left, trying to get close to the touchline to hold the ball, while Cesco ran forward to the right, knowing that the ball would spin back in the air!

Seeing this scene, the most confused one was Udinese goalkeeper Silvestri...

At the beginning, he didn't know what Sesco was doing running to his left front. Could it be that the striker was fooled by Udoji?

But only a second and a half later, he regretted that he hadn't struck out earlier!

I saw Udoji running to the sideline and looking up!
Fuck!Where's the ball? !

The Udinese players who were still in Rome halftime and had no time to go back were already chilled, but there was nothing they could do if they were far away.

I can't catch up after chasing, and I can't shout...

Sesco was not offside at all, and controlled the ball accurately at the landing point, forming a huge single-handedly!

He didn't even sprint, but simply accelerated forward, observing Silvestri's position and posture all the way!

Silvestri saw that he didn't show the slightest impatience, so he had no choice but to attack!

Sesco was on the penalty area line, seeing that Silvestri was still about 3 meters away from him, he pulled up his legs and prepared to shoot angrily!

Silvestri gambled to his right, the far corner of Sesko!

Cesko's furious leg dropped slightly and turned into an arch push, pushing the ball lightly into the near corner.

It's like a pass into the goal.

This is the composure in front of goal that only top shooters have!
3 is better than 0!

A goal to seal the victory!
The audience is boiling!Celebrate the 3 points and securely get it!
Silvestri sat on the ground, completely speechless.

Udoji also squatted down, he felt like a living creature, being made fun of by all the Roma fans.

And Cesko pointed at Chen Xiaoliang while running towards him!
Two dollars alone!The Slovenian teenager is very excited!

Before the celebration was over, the fourth official on the sidelines raised a placard, and Mourinho replaced Sesco with a military base. The striker was once again encouraged by the applause of the fans!

Barrage:

[Super arc... Can this assist be selected as the top 10 assists of the year in world football?]

【You say... Chen Xiaoliang's kick was tricked or he really wanted to spread it like this...】

[According to his crossing footwork, it should be a pass]

[Look at the movement of his foot just now, it is clearly a relief]

[You don’t understand the one above, masters can use real kung fu involuntarily even with hasty and seemingly random movements (I really can’t make it up)]

[Wuqiu King is here, can I get another one? 】

[You are brainless and cool, scoring goals is so worthless, where is the blood spurting in football]

...

3 goals behind, Udinese, who couldn't knock on the door of Rome throughout the game, gave up completely like a deflated ball.

In the frenzy of killing time, 4 minutes passed, and the referee blew the final whistle.

In the post-match press conference, Mourinho did not say much to tonight's opponent Udinese, but once again attacked the league organizing committee.

They will then fly to the Netherlands, 1200 kilometers away, to participate in the European Cup group stage and challenge Vitesse away.

Come back immediately after the game, two days later, you will participate in the league game against Empoli at home.

He asked the media loudly why AC Milan, who participated in the Champions League group stage one day earlier than them, could start the league later than them, thus giving them a full day and a half of rest time.

After the one-pass output at the press conference, Mourinho returned to the locker room and recounted the key points of the game to the players, especially the three-centre defense system that needs to be summarized.

For the defense of the two wings, he has completely given up on the current full-back candidates, and can only hope that he will have the opportunity to buy one or two players during the winter transfer window.

But before that, he still has an important plan to do.

Unlike usual, Mourinho did not give the main players time to rest the next day, but came to the club to do low-intensity defensive tactical drills and physical recovery training.

In the middle of the recovery training in the afternoon, Chen Xiaoliang was called out by Foti, a young coach who had just joined the coaching staff, and came to another training ground.

A man with a slightly fat body, but wearing the Italian national team training uniform, is doing warm-up there, or more like playing with a ball.

When he saw Chen Xiaoliang approaching, he also turned around, but his expression immediately became serious.

Covering half of his face, he had a rough beard that was golden brown under the sun, a tall and straight nose bridge, slightly wrinkled eyes that looked deeper under the glare of the sun, and a head of short hair.

This man was born in Rome, grew up in Rome, joined Rome at the age of 16, played the first UEFA Champions League for the first team of Rome at the age of 17, and played for Rome for 18 seasons.

获得过6次意甲联赛亚军、2次意大利杯冠军、1次意大利超级杯冠军、1次意甲联赛年度最佳青年球员、1次意甲联赛年度本土最佳球员。

On behalf of the national team, he won the 2006 World Cup champion and the runner-up of the 2012 European Cup, and was also selected as the best team in that European Cup!
He is one of the undisputed legendary captains of Roma!

Chen Xiaoliang asked Foti excitedly: "Has he also joined the team's coaching staff?"

Foti shook his head: "He was specially invited by the head coach to give you special training."

"Special training?!"

Seeing the two whispering, the man shouted to Chen Xiaoliang: "Can you speak Italian?"

Chen Xiaoliang nodded: "Yes sir!"

The man asked, "Know who I am?"

Chen Xiaoliang: "Mr. Must!"

The man asked again, "Say it out loud, what's my name?"

Chen Xiaoliang looked at the capital D and R on his training uniform and shouted: "Yes sir! Your name is De Rossi!"

"Full name! Louder!"

"Yes sir! Your full name is Daniele de Rossi!"

De Rossi kicked a ball to Chen Xiaoliang's feet: "I watched your game a few times, and it's not bad. Jose asked me to guide you today. For his sake, I agreed. But I have one thing Never figured it out, didn't Gerrard teach you how to attack?"

"Eh..." Chen Xiaoliang was at a loss for words for a moment, and he couldn't say that he just didn't have enough points to add attributes...

"Sir, are you going to instruct me to attack?"

With a thick beard, De Rossi is like the big boss in the Mafia in the movie. He never kills himself, with an elegant murderous look: "No, if I teach you to attack, the one who appeared here today It should be Francisco, besides, Gerrard didn't teach you to attack, so what's the use of me."

"Then you want to...?" Chen Xiaoliang asked puzzled.

"Mourinho has never played football, so he can understand many things, but he can't teach him. Tell me, what is wrong with this team now?"

Chen Xiaoliang scratched his head: "Eh...I think there are problems everywhere..."

"What the hell... I'm asking you where the biggest problem is!"

"Defense?"

"That's right, you still know."

Then, while pointing to the position on the court, De Rossi began to explain the purpose of his coming, and also started a generation of legends' individual training for the club's newcomers!

　Thanks to the club director [130827160341080] [MochizukiウPoet] for the monthly pass!
