Chapter 303: Top Midfielder [Feng Tui Plus Update]
On the pitch, Deco is always on the run, as if he never gets tired. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
He is very silent and low-key, and the most impressive thing is his back running on the pitch.
A reporter once asked him what makes him have such motivation on the pitch?
With a shy and bitter smile, Deco replied, "I cherish everything I have now!"
This is his heartfelt confession, but it is always ignored.
Born in San Bernardo, Brazil, he grew up playing football for entertainment, like other people of his age, dreaming of changing his life and his family's life, but he had no talent, and even if he worked very hard, he always played in small clubs.
Even if he was lucky enough to go to Corinthians later, he was not able to play for this strong team in Brazil.
When he was 19 years old, an agent told him that Benfica wanted a midfielder and took a fancy to him, and the club's manager told him that he had to go to Portugal because the team had agreed.
Deco has never left Brazil, he has never thought about leaving Brazil, and he wouldn't even know if he hadn't been told by his agent, that his grandfather was born in Portugal, which made it easier for him to land in the Portuguese league than others.
In this way, in a state of confusion and ignorance, he landed in Portugal with a state of anxiety and a vision for the future, but in the end, the cruel reality gave him a blow to the head.
It turned out that the agent was lying!
Benfica had never wanted him, and they had no interest in a brat who had never proven himself in Brazil.
But he has already come out and wants to stay in Portugal, so he can only continue to play in small teams.
So, he joined the national team and was loaned to the second-tier Alvika team.
Deco was awake from start to finish, knowing that if he wanted to stay in Europe, he would have to work harder than anyone else, and only then would he be able to stay, otherwise he would be eliminated and sent back to Brazil.
During his time at Alvica, he played as a regular and did quite well.
So soon, he was taken by Porto.
The head coach at the time was Fernando Santos, who taught Deco a lot and taught him how to establish himself in the European professional league, which made him grow by leaps and bounds.
After three years at Porto, he was promoted from the bench to the main player, and he received an offer from Atletico Madrid.
It's a bigger stage than Porto and a team that's more eye-catching than Porto.
They have just done a miracle in La Liga and the whole team is gearing up to make a big splash back in La Liga and even make a difference on the European stage.
The team's young head coach is the same age as Deco, but his coaching in the team has convinced Deco.
Even, as long as Gao Han speaks, Deco has no problem playing as a substitute.
Because it is cold, Deco is truly famous in Europe, and Deco has truly become a first-class midfielder in La Liga and even European football.
He still vividly remembers that Gao Han told him that at Atletico Madrid, he would be the best midfielder in Europe, and in fact, he did.
All this is inseparable from the high cold!
For the manager, Deco has nothing but gratitude.
Over the past two years, Gao Han has built a fantastic team for Atletico Madrid, first in La Liga, then at the Bernabeu in the Copa del Rey, and then against AC Milan to win the League Cup and achieve the treble.
All of this makes everyone in the team feel incredible.
Even after the end of the season, each of them looks back on the past season and wonders if they are dreaming.
Gao Han brought them self-confidence, and they were also full of confidence in Gao Han.
So, this season, when Gao Han said in the dressing room that the team was going to make a difference in the Champions League, everyone was applauding and cheering, and no one would doubt it.
Because they believe that as long as they are under the leadership of Gao Han, nothing is impossible.
As it turned out, the darkest group of death in the history of the Champions League failed to stop Atletico Madrid's progress.
The same goes for the second stage!
Deco is convinced that everyone on the team has the same belief in his heart.
Like the team's head coach Gao Han, they are eager to succeed and prove themselves.
They've tasted success and they don't want to go back to the old days, hiding in league corners and obscurity.
They love to take on challenges, they love encounters, and they win one opponent after another that is stronger than themselves.
That sense of accomplishment, that sense of satisfaction, is enough to make them reminisce for a lifetime.
What Deco had on his mind was never told to anyone, he was hidden in the deepest part of his heart, but it turned into motivation on the pitch.
Every game, every appearance, he will give his all.
However, United are clearly different from the teams they have faced before.
It's a team with a British style, very fast-paced, and often as soon as you receive the ball here, the opponent is already close in front of you, and you can't afford to hesitate.
Manchester United's players are very well versed in each other, with quick and concise succession of shots that characterize the Red Devils, which, combined with their aggressive off-the-ball movement, gives the Reds an easy advantage on the pitch.
But Atletico Madrid is also not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Under Gao Han's tutelage, the tactical framework that has been adhered to in the past three seasons is very solid, and the players are also full of tacit cooperation, smooth and skillful passing and cutting coordination, and a compact and orderly overall formation, so that Atletico Madrid did not see the slightest disorder under the impact of Manchester United, but fought against the Red Devils on the needle.
There is no good and effective way for either team to take the other.
Manchester United, despite dominance, failed to pose a threat in attack.
Ryan Giggs, who has been the most active performer this season, was completely frozen by Diego Simeone on the wing.
How tough that damn Argentine is, as a teammate, De Cobi knows everyone.
What's more, Simeone said in the dressing room before the game that what he enjoyed most was the hatred from his opponents.
The more he hated, the more excited he became.
The hatred of Beckham and Manchester United fans has completely ignited the Argentine.
But if it continues like this, it is not a solution, and the team cannot always be passively beaten.
Deco was always watching the situation around him, keeping an eye out for any changes on the pitch.
Manchester United take their front trident very seriously, and often use five men to defend all three of them.
This is not surprising, as Villa, Torres and Kaka are a considerable threat as a team or on their own, something that no team can afford to underestimate.
However, United's overall defence was well organised and the Trident failed to pose a threat.
It's like Ryan Giggs, Scholes and Vanney being frozen.
"We've got to make some adjustments," Deco thought to himself.
Because of the relationship between the front trident, Atletico Madrid's attack is mainly concentrated in the middle, and the side relies on the forward insertion of two fullbacks, but in this game, the trident was frozen, and the fullbacks were afraid of the opponent and did not dare to step forward easily.
As a result, Atletico Madrid have never been able to play a threatening attack.
'When the attack is blocked, you should be more decisive to push forward or pull the side, which can break the deadlock on the pitch. ”
This is a quote from Diego Simeone and Deco during a dressing room exchange.
It is said that this guy did this when he played for Atletico Madrid.
And he scored more than a dozen goals in a single season, which made him one of the top midfielders in European football.
It's just that he is old now, and his heart is weak.
But Deco can!
Thinking of this, Deco understood in his heart.
"When it's time to attack, I'll go up, can you do it?" asked Deco as he approached Xavi Alonso.
The Basque midfielder's eyes flashed with surprise, but he nodded affirmatively: "No problem." ”
They have been working together for more than a year and have established a tacit understanding with each other.
Then he looked at Simone, who also nodded, with encouragement in his eyes.
Soon, United were on the offensive again.
This time it was Gary Neville and David Beckham on the right who started the game.
Deco leaned in for the first time and tangled Gary Neville, who was plugging in with the ball.
The kid was very active from the start, as if there was no one on the left side of Atletico Madrid.
In the middle of the entanglement, Gary Neville immediately passed the ball to Beckham, but by this time Jankulovski had already come up and stabbed Beckham before him.
The ball was poked off.
Deco received the ball on the left flank and Gary Neville followed closely behind.
"He's trying to force me to pass back. Deco thought to himself.
By this time, Jankulovski had already run into the open space, so Deco didn't have time to think about it, and immediately returned the pass, and he turned and rushed forward along the left wing.
Jankulovski also understood it, faced the incoming ball, and without thinking, he took a ball over the top and picked the ball directly in front of Deco.
This surprised Gary Neville, who quickly turned around and chased after him.
Deco wasn't fast, and Gary Neville quickly caught up.
But when he was about to block Deco, the Brazilian midfielder suddenly made a sudden stop, changed direction again, and smashed the ball to the middle.
The sudden change took all the United players, including Gary Neville, by surprise.
Gao Han on the sidelines was even brighter, and the whole person was excited.
"There's a chance, there's a chance!"
Gao Han immediately entered the coaching system.
"Start using the Samsung Assist Card, Target: Deco!"
……
On the court, Deco shook off Gary Neville and cut inside with the ball, the whole person seemed to suddenly light up, and the originally chaotic scene suddenly became clear and clear.
He spotted Roy Keane, the United captain rushing towards him.
He also saw Kaka and wanted to be ready to take his pass.
There was also Bart, who followed Kaka in midfield, but was somewhat distracted by the movement on his side.
All of this came into his mind in an instant, and the feeling of enlightenment made his whole person have an almost high-court pleasure in an instant, and he passed the ball in front of Kaka without thinking.
……
"Good, good pass!"
Gao Han saw this scene in the coaching system and was amazed, but he moved his mind and used micro-exercises.
"Adjust the goal of the Samsung assist card, Kaka!"
……
Kaka and Deco cooperate very well, and as soon as the latter passes, he immediately accelerates and rushes forward.
Keane had his back to him, Bart was left behind and Kaka sprinted to create an unguarded area at the edge of the penalty area.
In the big penalty area, Brown and Ferdinand were taken aback, and the former couldn't care about Villa and grabbed quickly.
But he's fast, Kaka is faster than him.
Without waiting for Brown to get closer, Kaka took the lead and pushed the ball forward.
The ball rolled quickly past Brown's side, and the unguarded Villa kicked in a split second and cut in quickly. (To be continued.) )
