Chapter 454: This is clearly a living treasure

Chapter 454 This is clearly a living treasure (second update.)

Duan Xuan and Tao Wei are explaining and broadcasting the starting lineups of the two teams to the fans.

"Wolfsburg's lineup for this game is: goalkeeper Benaglio, four defenders Merrle, Madelen, Quiroga and Schaefer lined up, three midfielders Josue, Marin, Boateng and Gentner, Boateng and Gentner as double backs, Josue's position, well, it seems that the position is ahead today, and we will focus on Josue's position today, on the front line, it is a combination of Yang Fan and Dzeko. “

Tao Wei observed for about two minutes and said: "Ruosue's position today is indeed advanced, Wolfsburg's formation is more precise, it should be 4312, Sweden international Benaglio replaced Jenci to be the starting goalkeeper, and in this game, Wolfsburg also has a change, that is, Argentine central defender Quiroga started, he replaced Portuguese central defender Ricardo Costa, who was suspended because of a red card in the second leg of the semi-final against Rangers. ”

Duan Xuan continued: "The lineup of Zenit St. Petersburg is also the strongest they can send, goalkeeper Malafeev, the four defenders are Hill, Shirokov, Krizanats, Russian international Anyukov, and the three midfielders are Denisov, Ukrainian captain Timoshchuk, and Ziyanov. The three forwards are the team's number one star, Arshavin, who has the title of 'new Tsar', Dani, and Faizulin. ”

Seeing Zenit's starting list, Duan Xuan smiled, "Oh, why is there no name of Kim Dongjin?" South Korean player Kim Dongjin did not appear in the starting list, and Advocaat did not send him. This will definitely disappoint many South Korean fans, and Kim Dongjin wants to freeze Yang Fan, and it seems that he will have to wait until he has a chance to play in the second half of the game. ”

Duan Xuan's sarcastic remarks about Kim Dongjin and the Koreans drew a burst of applause and applause from the Chinese fans in front of the TV.

Jin Dongjin was ashamed to say before the game that he wanted to freeze Yang Fan, which annoyed many Chinese fans, which onion and garlic are you, Jin Dongjin, and you dare to say such a thing?! Yang Fan in the Bundesliga and the League Cup, even Lucio and Ram have not been abused by Yang Fan, you Jin Dongjin actually dared to jump out and say that Yang Fan was going to freeze? !

※※※※※※※

Zenit St. Petersburg's head coach Advocaat is a Dutchman who prefers four-three-three, and his Zenit is also a team that insists on attacking, and Zenit St. Petersburg was able to make it all the way to the final in the UEFA Cup, thanks to their strong attacking power.

And the characteristics of Wolfsburg are almost well known, this is also a team with strong attack and average defense, because of Yang Fan's survival, Wolfsburg's attack power is also among the best in the entire Bundesliga.

The two teams in the final are both teams with good attacking ability, which also makes this game favored by many people before the game. They think that this final must be very exciting, the two sides are fighting against each other, scoring constantly, you score goals and we immediately return to color, and the game is repeated. The two dark horse teams will hold high the banner of attack and kill in the dark. So much so that some critics have said that although both teams are not giants and are dark horses, they may be the best-looking UEFA Cup final in recent seasons.

However, after the start of the game, fans who had great expectations for the game found that things were not quite what they imagined......

Once the game starts, at least at the beginning of this period, the game can be described as quite dull.

Both sides are testing each other, and they are both very cautious, and when attacking, the troops invested are relatively conservative, lest they be counterattacked by the opponent, lest they be attacked by the opponent.

"It's understandable, too. Five minutes have passed since the game, and the two sides have not really shot on goal, and Duan Xuan can only say helplessly.

"yes. Tao Wei continued, "After all, it's the final, it's always right to be cautious! The beginning is very important, and whoever concedes the ball first will be very passive." ”

At this time, Yang Fan took the ball in the front court, and in the face of the interception of two defenders, Yang Fan could not find a way to get the ball, and in the end he could only choose to end the attack with a long shot.

His long-range shot was met by the buttocks of Zenit St. Petersburg's Shirokov, who jumped up on his buttocks as if he had been shot with a spear, and then fell to the ground with an exaggerated scream.

Yang Fan was also taken aback by Shirokov's strong reaction, this guy should have blocked the shot with his ass, he didn't blow up his birdie, right?!

Even Advocaat, the head coach of Zenit St. Petersburg, couldn't help but cover his face when he saw this, obviously a little ashamed and speechless about his disciple's appearance.

The referee Webb, who came from England, ran over to ask about the situation, and Shirokov covered his ass and moaned, saying in Russian, "God, my ass is going to be in half." Am I going to be disfigured?"

Yang Fan didn't know Russian, and he looked at a Zenit player next to him, who was Arshavin, meaning what he said.

Arshavin's face darkened, he didn't say a word, and he was a little speechless.

※※※※※※※

Although Duan Xuan and Tao Wei couldn't hear what Shirokov said, the Zenit player's slightly exaggerated and joyful performance just now brought joy to them and the fans in front of the TV, making the game a somewhat dull start with more laughter. The TV is also constantly replaying, Shirokov did twist his ass and block Yang Fan's shot with his buttocks, and then immediately jumped up as if Chrysanthemum had been shot......

Well, there's a topic to talk about.

Tao Wei apparently did his homework and began to introduce the Russian international to Chinese fans who didn't know the players of Zenit St. Petersburg.

Suffice it to say, there are few players in Europe's top league who are worse at ruining their careers than Roman Shirokov, and of course, Romanian star Adrian Mutu may have something to say.

The Russian midfielder has tried everything. At one point, he fictionalized his broken leg and had to put a plaster cast to justify it, but it was eventually revealed. He once broke the news to the media that his hypocritical manager was a "mercenary and greedy bastard". He also scolded his fans. Just a few days ago, in an interview with the Russian media, when commenting on the upcoming European Cup, he sarcastically said that the players of the Spanish team are all 'nobodies'.

But I have to say that such Shirokov is like a living treasure, and Russian fans love this guy very much...... The only thing you can predict about Shirokov is his unpredictability. Zenit St. Petersburg manager Dick Advocaat has led Zenit St. Petersburg to a high pitch in the Russian Premier League and Europa League this season, and after the team beat Bayern Munich 5-1 to reach the final, the Dutchman praised Shirokov's success in freezing Ribery in the semi-finals, saying: "Roman Shirokov is the best defender in Russian history. ”

And Shirokov, who was in the amateur team four years ago and had just made his international debut, gave an unfriendly response: "Defender? I don't want to be a defender. I want to be the best midfielder in Russia. ”

Born in Dedovsk, 40 kilometers west of Moscow, Shirokov was a member of CSKA Moscow's youth team when the first events of his career-telling career took place. At that time he was on loan to the Moscow Zil torpedo team, one day he went out with friends for a barbecue party, and then did not return for two months.

Others are skipping shifts and disappearing, he is skipping races and disappearing. At one point, the team planned to go to the police station to call the police, and also posted a missing person notice to find Shirokov.

Later, in order to cover up his poor training and rambling, he faked the story of his broken leg. When the facts were discovered, he was sent back to the troop club - not so much playing football as he was doing military service. Although he also trains with the reserves, his main duties are digging trenches and painting the walls in CSKA's signature red and blue

He then went to amateur side Ishta, and although his game was bullish, his temper did not improve at all

The experience didn't change anything for him. He played for non-league side Ishta, a team in a small town outside Moscow, not far from his hometown of Dedovsk, where he used to drink and gamble late into the night

It wasn't until he met Katea, who would later become his wife, that he began to change himself. In 2004 Shirokov decided to restart his career, playing for Vidno in the third division for one season, and a year later he made his breakthrough in the Russian Premier League. However, while his skills have improved, his temper has not improved. Shirokov is still in conflict with many coaches

In 2006, Kurban Berdeev set out to build Rubin Kazan into a team that defended the Russian champions and beat Barcelona at the Camp Nou in the Champions League. Shirokov, who was still playing for a relegation team at the time, mocked the giant head coach for portraying him as a "shaman in the dugout" because he always carried a string of prayer beads. This almost caused him big trouble.

It wasn't until 2007 when he was in the non-giant Khimki that the 26-year-old Shirokov played a full season in the Russian Premier League. He scored seven goals in 27 appearances, including one against Zenit, and at the end of the season he agreed to a contract offer from the Russian champion. Finally, this time it was no longer a hangover or an officer of the army who came to knock on his door, but reputation

Tao Wei didn't know that the anecdote he introduced to the Russian international for Chinese fans not only did not make Chinese fans feel annoying to this guy, but some fans were very friendly to Shirokov, which is clearly a living treasure.

"Few are optimistic that Shirokov will be able to take his place in Zenit's midfield, when their midfield is full of internationals. So Advocaat thought about it and moved Shirokov to the central defender position in the preseason. In tackling and air dominance, Shirokov was a far cry from the departed Martin Skrtel, but his positional sense and superb passing allowed him to fill the void well. Tao Wei continued.

"Opportunity! Wolfsburg's opportunity-" At this moment, Duan Xuan suddenly shouted at the top of his voice.

The situation on the field has changed abruptly.
