Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Good Start
Winning the championship is another new history for the Granada team. Yan Feng and his teammates won another championship with a decent weight. It's a great start, and they're naturally happy.
After winning the Super Cup, Granada's morale was restored due to the negative impact of the previous team reform.
As soon as this morale is restored, it naturally means that the players are starting to really accept Mourinho's tactical style.
With the Super Cup plus two La Liga rounds, Granada has achieved four good results. It's definitely a good start.
"At the beginning of last season, we started the season well. It's the same now, and it's the Super Cup, and we're already double this year. ”
"Haha, we've had times when we've had doubles. It's a source of pride. ”
"Come on, let's also taste the taste of the triple crown, or even the quadruple and five crowns!"
Granada fans saw another championship in their arms, and one by one they began to expect more titles.
At this point, Mourinho can be regarded as completely established in the Granada team. His authority and mastery of the Granada team has also been strengthened. This will allow him to unleash his commanding talents to the fullest.
Next, Granada continued to work hard and won the third round of La Liga at home.
As the third round of the league was played against a weak team - Levante, who returned to La Liga. Therefore, Mourinho changed his favorite style of play for defensive counter-attacks and put on the 4,231 formations that Granada used most often in previous seasons.
It's for the players to play to their heart's content, and the attacking players of the Granada team are naturally crazy with joy.
Finally had such an opportunity to attack, and the Granada team, under the leadership of Modric, bullied the Levante team 4:0.
In this game, Modric provided two assists, and Lin Fan also scored a goal. Three of those goals were split by the wingers and Sandel.
Seeing his teammates attacking wantonly, the desire to attack in Yan Feng's heart was also hooked. For the first time since the new season, he stopped defending full-time and was very active in attacking. It's just a pity that he doesn't seem to have any goals on this day. After a few attempts, he failed to score a single goal, regardless of the header or the violent long-range shot of his master. This made him feel a little unpleasant.
Because the opponent was weak, and Yan Feng stepped forward to participate in the attack after the team was two goals ahead, Mourinho let him do it. In the previous games, if Yan Feng couldn't help but want to step forward to participate in the attack, he would get a sentence: "Yan, just do your current job." ”
A hearty victory has allowed some of the bad emotions of the Granada team to be released. This will indeed have a good impact on the next matches of the Granada team.
After playing La Liga, Granada has a new season with a more important, or should I say, the most important competition - the Champions League.
Granada started their group stage and were drawn in Group C, starting with Atlético Greek.
Atlético Greeks is an old acquaintance of the Granada team. Atletico Greeks from Cyprus were Granada's first opponent in their first European competition.
In the play-offs that year, Granada scored one goal at home and away and eliminated their opponents.
Unexpectedly, this time, it would be encountered again in the Champions League. Yan Feng felt that it was quite fateful.
"It seems that we are not the only ones who have been making progress. There are a lot of other teams that are growing. Yan Feng thinks that the Greek Athletic Team can play from the Europa League play-offs to the current Champions League like the Granada team, which is also quite admirable to him.
In view of the defeat of the opponent that year, after meeting again, Yan Feng and other people who participated in the competition that year were in a very good mood.
With a psychological advantage, Granada welcomed Atlético Greeks at home.
The Athletic Team of the Greeks has really grown a lot compared to that year, and its strength has become stronger in all aspects. Unfortunately, the Granada team they are facing now is also stronger than it was back then, and much stronger.
As a result, the hope of revenge of the Greek Athletic Team was not realized.
Regardless, Atlético Greeks performed well after the start of the game. Although they played away from home, they were very tenacious and the whole team was very motivated.
As for the Granada team, under the coaching of Mourinho, in the face of such an important game, it is natural to defend and counterattack.
In his own home field, in the face of his weaker opponent, he still played a defensive counterattack, which is simply not giving the Greek Athletic team a way to live.
Although unlike last season's flashy attack, Granada are just as efficient in counter-attacking defence. Not to mention Yan Feng and Lin Fan, players who can seamlessly connect with defensive counterattacks. With Modric's quick movement in the transition between attack and defense and the two fast horses on the wing, once he fights back, he often has the power to break through.
After a couple of efficient counter-attacks, Granada were the first to break the deadlock. They took a 1-0 lead.
Breaking the deadlock was the beginning of a speaking situation for the other teams. But for Jose Mourinho's Granada team, it was actually the beginning of a real stalemate.
Different from the indulgence of players in the league when the fish belly team is played, a more important game like the Champions League naturally does not expect to have the kind of situation of letting go and playing to the fullest.
After taking the lead, according to Mourinho's request, Yan Feng led the team to the ranks of driving buses.
In the end, Atlético Greeks could only lose by one goal and left Granada depressed.
The Champions League of the new season also had their first win, which was good and very happy for the whole Granada team.
We have achieved good results in all aspects and everything, and this is a perfect start. This is simply a good game to increase the limit as soon as the market opens!
The results are good, but after completing the experience of Mourinho's tactical style, Lin Fan gave Mourinho a nickname. In the past, the outside world called Mourinho a 'madman' and a 'magic bird'. Lin Fan's nickname for him was a little more special.
"Old driver!"
The name of the old driver, Yan Feng agreed very much when he heard it. Isn't a person who likes to fiddle with the 'bus' so much just an old driver?
Since then, Mourinho has become an 'old driver' in the mouths of Yan Feng and others. And after Sandel and the others heard Lin Fan's explanation of this name, they also happily followed suit.
