Chapter 122: Do You Believe Me or Not?

Ferrer stood in the dressing room with eleven of his hand-picked starters in front of him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

The goalkeeper is 19-year-old José Manuel Reina.

In the past few years, the Barcelona goalkeeper position has also been in turmoil.

Portugal international Beyer first, but Louis van Gaal soon brought in Dutch goalkeeper Hesper and has been firmly in the back of the net for the past three seasons.

However, with the resignation of Van Gaal, Hespp also transferred, although the team soon brought in French goalkeeper Ditrul from Celta Vigo, plus the backup goalkeeper Arnau who was already in the team, but Ferrer finally focused on developing the youngster Reina.

The team's formation is mainly three, four, three.

The back three were Sergi, De Boer and Reziger.

The midfielder takes a diamond-shaped position, with Pep Guardiola in the back, Cocu and Gabri in front, and Rivaldo in front.

There are three players up front, Dutch fast Mar Ovimas on the left, Kluivert in the middle and Luis Enrique on the right.

This is the strongest starting line-up Barcelona can put out.

Ferrer's gaze swept over the eleven players, but he couldn't get any feedback from the players.

This disappointed him.

From start to finish, a year on, he still hasn't been able to convince this group of players to him.

He's destined to leave Barcelona, but before he can leave, he has to leave something behind.

It's not because he's a Barcelona fan, it's for his career.

He needs to be remembered that he once won a Copa del Rey for Barcelona!

"Ahem!"

Ferrer coughed heavily, drawing the attention of the stars in the dressing room.

But there were still people who just looked up at him and continued to do their own thing.

He is also used to this.

"Today's game, how important it is to us, I believe everyone knows it!"

Ferrer wants to use his opening words to calm the stars as much as possible.

But it was obvious that this group of people were all human spirits, and few of them knew his way.

"Our opponents Atletico Madrid are tenacious, they have a very good defence, they have changed managers in a row this season, and at the end of January, after the current manager Gao Han took over, the team has been on a winning streak and is in very good shape. ”

"We have to pay enough attention!"

When Ferrer said this, he still looked at the player in front of him, but there was still little feedback.

Captain Pep Guardiola seems to be the most attentive, but Ferrer knows how much appeal he still has in the dressing room.

"It's because Atletico Madrid defends well and counter-attacks are sharp, so we can't give the opponent any chances, we have to take the initiative from the very beginning of the game and put pressure on Atletico Madrid from the first minute of the game. ”

"It requires our frontcourt players to be focused at all times, harassing Atletico Madrid's midfield, and at the same time requiring our midfielders to put enough pressure on the opposition. ”

At this point, Ferrer once again accentuated his tone, reminding his players.

"We have to finish this battle in the shortest possible time by scoring goals!"

The strengths and weaknesses of Barcelona, Ferrer has been in charge for a season, it is impossible not to know.

He knows that the longer it drags on, the worse it will be for Barcelona.

Since Barcelona's advantage is attack, it has to play a quick attack, from the beginning of the game like an autumn wind sweeping leaves, sweeping Atletico Madrid's defensive area, as long as it can score a goal, Barcelona will control the initiative, score two goals, and win.

"Finally, I would like to say that tonight, we will definitely be able to bring this trophy back to Barcelona!"

"As long as everyone in the room pulls together!"

It was only at this time that the players raised their heads slightly and looked at the head coach with a thick beard in front of them.

The referee urged the bell to ring.

…………

…………

The bell at the entrance broke the silence in the locker room.

Everyone looked at the manager sitting by the gate and realized that he didn't say a word from beginning to end.

It's not like the boss's style!

Doesn't he have to say something about mobilization before every game?

Why is it silent today?

Could it be that what happened on the bus just now annoyed him?

It's not like that!

In the midst of the players' doubts, Gao Han came over.

"The bell is ringing, and Mr. Aranda is urging us to enter!"

Gao Han said this with a faint smile.

But the players couldn't laugh.

"Tonight's game was completely different from any other game, I'm sure you get it. ”

The players all nodded in unison, and of course they understood.

"I'm sure you don't need to say anything before a game like this, you will do your best to win this game. ”

The players are still in unison, they must be desperate.

"Now that you are about to walk through this gate, I have only one question for you. ”

All the players looked up at the manager in unison.

"Do you believe me?"

Once again, the players nodded in unison and replied in unison, "Faith!"

"Very good, as long as you believe me, you won't lose this game!"

"Good!" the players replied in unison again.

Gao Han raised his right hand, "Let's go!"

…………

…………

"We saw players from both teams walking into the pitch one after another. ”

"We've already introduced Barcelona's starting line-up, now let's take a look at the starting eleven of Atletico Madrid. ”

'There's no suspense about the goalkeeper, Toni Jimenez. ”

From left to right, the youngster Antonio López, the centre-back is Carlos Marchena and Millsad Ibic, and the right-back is the veteran Juan Aguilera. ”

"Obviously, in such an important game, Gao Han still chose to play it safe, and did not start Roberto, who has performed well recently, and Pablo Ibañez, a young central defender. ”

"It's not surprising because Roberto has always played as a right wing-back, and although he has played well at right-back, the defense is a big problem, and as for Pablo Ibáñez, he is too young to trust Ibic when it matters most. ”

Aguilera dropped back to right-back and the midfield changed as Zoran Nigus returned to the starting line-up, with Xavi Alonso and Marcos Senna alongside him, forming a back three in Atletico Madrid's midfield. ”

"Up front, there hasn't been much change, with David Villa and Fernando Torres forming a double of strikers up front who are the counter-attacking weapons of Atletico Madrid, with Portuguese talented midfielder Hugo Leal roaming behind them. ”

"These three players are a guarantee for Atletico Madrid when they counter-attack, I don't know how many teams will die at their feet, and Barcelona must also be careful that if their own defense shows holes, they are likely to be caught. ”

"The captains of both teams are guessing sides. ”

…………

…………

The players on the field were guessing, and on the sidelines, Gao Han and Ferrer came together.

Before the game, it is customary for the two managers to shake hands and have a polite remark.

It's just that it doesn't seem like the atmosphere is very harmonious.

"It's finally here, be careful!" Ferrer said with a laugh.

It looks like he's joking, but in reality, he's serious.

"Each other, each other. Gao Han also didn't give an inch, "I roughly calculated, you only have sixty minutes." ”

Ferrell frowned, not quite understanding what Gao Han meant.

"If you can't score a goal in 60 minutes, you're dead here!"

Ferrellon was on fire, "Really, I promise, in 60 minutes!"

Obviously, he could understand what Gao Han said, the meaning behind sixty minutes.

"Let's see!" Gao Han turned and left.

At this time, on the court, the two teams had completed the side guess, and Atletico Madrid got the right to serve.

"Hey, Harvey!"

Seeing that the team had won the tee-off, Gao Han shouted towards the field.

Xavi Alonso immediately left the array and ran to the sidelines.

"Hold the pace after the start, don't rush, control the ball, let them grab first, but be careful not to lose it in our own half. ”

Xavi Alonso understands the manager's intentions.

Atletico Madrid players are relatively young, and they are all participating in such a tournament for the first time, so they must first stabilize their rhythm and stand firm.

Wait until the team is used to the game, and then slowly pull out the formation.

Barcelona's front court is indeed star-studded, but the pressing is not strong, and with Atletico Madrid's ability to control the ball in the center and back, it should be able to control it.

But just as Gao Han saw off Xavi Alonso, less than 20 meters away from him, Barcelona coach Ferrer also walked to the sidelines, making pressing gestures towards players such as Kluivert, Overmars and Rivaldo.

To be able to become the head coach of Barcelona, Ferrer is also very capable, and naturally sees the disadvantages of Atletico Madrid.

Therefore, Barcelona had to grab at the beginning, taking advantage of Atletico Madrid's unstable footing, to grab them into chaos.

As long as Atletico Madrid's formation is in chaos, with the individual ability of the Barcelona star, he can create a threat and even score a goal by seizing a random opportunity.

It's just that Ferrer is a little worried, and he doesn't know if the stars will be able to execute their own tactics.

…………

…………

In the chairman's stand, the management of Atletico Madrid, such as Hill and his sons, Cerezo and Paulo Futré, were also worried, looking at the stadium with anxiety, the two sides had already set up a position, and the final was about to start.

"Dad, it's rare to see you so nervous. Little Hill noticed that his father's hands were shaking.

That's not a symptom of geriatric disease, it's because of nervousness.

Old Hill's cloudy eyes were glued to the court, as if he didn't want to miss even the slightest detail, "Michelle, give me some water, it's warm." ”

Little Hill noticed that his father's palms and back were sweaty, nodded and called over to a staff member behind him.

When he looked back, he heard his father muttering to himself.

"Let's hope he doesn't let us down!"

Little Hill felt distressed for no reason.

Although the outside world's evaluation of his father is mixed, there is no doubt that his feelings for Atletico Madrid are serious, and he is willing to give everything for Atletico Madrid, even including his reputation.

Little Hill gently patted his father's fat hand, the back of the hand was protruding with blood vessels, and the skin was very rough, a bit like the yellow leaves of the autumn, not knowing when it would fall.

"Don't worry, Dad, I trust him!"

Old Hill nodded, sighing helplessly.

…………

…………

At this moment, everyone in the stands of the stadium, every player waiting in front of the TV, is in the same mood as old Hill.

They may be fans of Atletico Madrid, but they may also be pro-Barcelona, and many are even neutral.

It wasn't until the referee Aranda's whistle that they completely woke up and turned into the tense game.

The much-anticipated Copa del Rey final has finally begun!
