"Oh~ There are so many fans who came to watch our game today!" After walking out of the players' tunnel, Ronaldo glanced at the surrounding stands and couldn't help but exclaim, "The stands are almost full...... How many fans are there!"

Compared with the White Hart Lane Stadium, which has a capacity of only more than 36,000 people, the capacity of the Yokohama International Stadium is more than double, and Japanese fans have long developed the habit of watching the Toyota Cup at this time, which naturally brings Ronaldo an extremely strong visual shock!

Although the capacity of Old Trafford and the Bernabeu is larger than that of Yokohama International Stadium, Ronaldo did not expect that in Japan, which is thousands of miles away from the United Kingdom, there will be so many fans who come to watch the game, and they are all extremely enthusiastic!

"It's normal for this to happen, don't make such a fuss. At this time, Davis patted Ronaldo's shoulder very calmly and reminded the latter to pay attention to maintaining his image and not to behave like a dirt bun who has never seen the world. After all, the Dutch boar is one of the few players in Tottenham Hotspur who has ever come to Japan to play in the Toyota Cup, so he is no stranger to this scene: "The overall level of Asian football is not high, and first-class stars are even rarer, which is why so many fans take the initiative to watch our games." Besides, it won't be long before we have a new, more luxurious course, so now you just have to be patient. ”

After securing the rights to build all the venues and ancillary buildings for the London Olympics, George's plans to build a new stadium for Tottenham are on the agenda, which is no longer a secret in English football. Therefore, for Davies's statement, Ronaldo naturally nodded yes.

Now let's take a look at the situation in São Paulo. Paulo Outuori set up a 3-5-2 formation today, intending to play to his technical superiority, controlling the midfield first and then attacking the Tottenham goal!

Goalkeeper Rogenho Seni, the three central defenders are Fabon, Diego Lugano and Edcarlos, Bastos and Angelo Júnior are the left and right wing-backs, Josue, Danilo Andrade and Mineiro are the three partners in the middle of the midfield, and the forward line is a combination of former Serie A Golden Boot and Bundesliga Golden Boot winners Amoruso and Aloisio. Although Sao Paulo's starting lineup is not as star-studded as Tottenham, it is also top-notch in South American football!

Because Sicinho joined Real Madrid earlier than in his previous life, the overall strength of Sao Paulo has declined to a certain extent compared with when Sicineo was in the team. Although Sao Paulo brought in Bastos after that, moved the veteran Angelo Júnior to the right to fill the void left by Sicinho's departure, and even won the Copa Libertadores, most people are still not optimistic about Sao Paulo's championship prospects!

Unlike Tottenham, which advocates teamwork, Sao Paulo, who have a strong samba football imprint, rely more on the performance of their stars. So, the negative impact of Sicinho's departure on São Paulo is far greater than it seems!

After talking about Sao Paulo's starting lineup, let's introduce Tottenham's line-up again. Despite the Carabao Cup quarter-final against Wigan Athletic in three days' time, the temptation to become world champions is clearly much more than winning a regular Carabao Cup game. Therefore, George did not hesitate to choose to use the main force as much as possible, instead of hiding Crouch, Cisse, Reeser and other generals in the face of Liverpool in his previous life, when his strength far exceeded his opponent, giving the opponent a chance!

Of course, in the previous life, Liverpool was defeated by Sao Paulo, in addition to the factor that Benitez was too underestimated, luck also accounted for a large part - in that game, the Reds had scored three times against Sao Paulo, but the referee on duty signaled that the goal was invalid, which was extremely embarrassing to lose to Sao Paulo. Otherwise, with the level of that Liverpool team, even if there are many main players who do not start, they should not lose a game with a huge chance of winning like this.

Goalkeeper Petr Cech, the back four from left to right are Evra, Nemanja Vidic, Ledley King and Stephen Carr, the midfielders are Mascherano, Xavi Alonso and Gerrard, Arshavin, Cristiano Ronaldo and Drogba form the front trident!

After some hesitation, George chose between McCone and Carl. After all, the vice-captain who came from Tottenham's academy has worked hard and is already old, and his competitive form will only get worse and worse in the future. In such a situation, George would naturally prefer to give this starting opportunity to Karl as a reward for his dedication to Tottenham for so many years!

As for McConn. Tottenham will definitely have a chance to play in the Club World Cup in the future, and it will not be too late for him to start again.

The referee of this match is Armando Achendia, who is from Mexico. Originally, Blatter wanted another Mexican referee, Marco Rodriguez, to officiate the final, but with Adele's covert push, this qualification finally fell into the hands of Achendia.

George may not remember who the referee was in the Club World Cup final in his previous life, but he still knows Marco Rodriguez's reputation as a "card machine" in football circles. For Tottenham, who have a clear advantage in physical confrontations, it is not in Tottenham's interest to have a referee who likes to pick cards so much. In contrast, Achendia, who knows how to judge the situation, or has a more B number in his heart, is obviously more suitable for Tottenham!

Although Sao Paulo and Tottenham are on par in terms of technical level, the former is obviously far behind the latter in terms of overall strength, tactical level and physical confrontation ability. So, once the game began, Tottenham quickly gained the upper hand in the battle for midfield, attacking the gates of Sao Paulo!

The defeat in the struggle for the initiative in the game made the situation on the field of São Paulo extremely bad in an instant. Like most Brazilian teams, Sao Paulo also have a problem of attacking rather than defending. Therefore, once the initiative falls into the hands of the enemy, then it often means that the weakest point of São Paulo is completely exposed to the opponent!

Rogenho Seni is indeed famous in international football, but this is mainly because of his goalscoring ability, not because of how good his goalkeeping skills really are - if Seni is really at the top level, then successive Brazilian managers will not treat him as a third goalkeeper and hesitate between Dida and Marcos.

No, just five minutes from the opening whistle, Tottenham blasted Seni away with an attack - Stephen Carr crossed from a 45-degree angle on the right, and Drogba headed the ball into the box for Cristiano Ronaldo under the pressure of Lugano and Fabon. The Portuguese kicked up and down, and scored with a push to score the first goal for Tottenham!

Tottenham have had a fantastic start!
