Chapter 124: Dominant
In the summer of 2009, there were many big events in the transfer market, the most notable was the Galacticos Real Madrid, Florentino returned to power this summer, and his promise before taking office was to complete the promise that his predecessor Calderón did not fulfill, and to take Kaka and Cristiano. Ronaldo. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Kaka and Cristiano. Ronaldo's transfer rumors have long been spread, and during the winter break last season, the Premier League nouveau riche Manchester City offered Kaka a transfer fee of 100 million, but their nouveau riche temperament is obviously not in line with Kaka's appetite.
At that time, AC Milan agreed, but Kaka did not agree, and the transfer ended without a hitch, and then there was Florentino's promise, the chairman's energy is not ordinarily strong, but Kaka is relatively much simpler here.
On the one hand, Kaka is willing to go, on the other hand, Berlusconi does want to sell Kaka, his salary is a big investment, and what does Kaka and Degan's father Wright say, he is a little greedy, he hopes that Kaka and Degan can make a lot of money, maybe his starting point is for the good of his son's future, but AC Milan will not meet Wright's request.
Italy's economic situation is not good at all, Berlusconi's control of AC Milan is completely a money-losing goods, so many years is enough, while Kaka can still be sold for a high price, this is a good choice.
So the cooperation between Real Madrid and AC Milan can be described as you and me, but C. Ronaldo is different.
Manchester United's godfather Alex Ferguson is very reluctant to throw his disciples into the arms of Real Madrid, but C. Ronaldo insists on leaving, he once preached that it is impossible to sell C. Ronaldo to Real Madrid but has to accept this fact, the strong melon is not sweet.
Manchester United are not short of money, they are the most influential team in the world, without one, Real Madrid will not be able to do it in front of them.
Although the Glazer family borrowed money to buy Manchester United, they have never been stuck in Ferguson in terms of transfer investment.
Manchester United doesn't want to sell people who have to sell, naturally the transfer fee is extremely high, 96 million euros, breaking Zidane's first transfer record in one fell swoop, which is really amazing.
The transfer period is not over yet, but the second phase of the Galaxy is already star-studded, attracting the attention of fans all over the world, Real Madrid in the league and European competition did not achieve satisfactory results, and was completely stolen from the limelight by the sworn rival Barcelona.
But Florentino turned his hand over and grabbed the limelight with his big move in the transfer period.
However, Barcelona were not to be outdone, and soon they signed the world's No. 1 centre-forward Ibrahimovic, a deal rumored to be 66 million euros.
Ibrahimovic's transfer Zhang Yuan knows a little bit, and his agent Raiola should have earned a lot of money with this heavyweight transfer.
Zhang Yuan himself didn't know that what he said to Ibrahimovic at the party Raiola held for him last season touched Ibrahimovic a lot.
With the arrival of Mourinho, Inter Milan still failed to survive the quarterfinals in the Champions League, which made him very disappointed and wanted to leave.
As for Barcelona, last season's leadership in Pep Guardiola included all the honors that could be obtained, but it was not without shortcomings, Guardiola is very aware of this, the team does not have a serious center forward.
Eto'o is not the kind of centre-forward who can compete for the top in the front, and Eto'o is very temperamental, he thinks he should be the boss of the dressing room, because he is the main player of Rijkaard's generation, he has always performed very well in Barcelona, but the team obviously did not satisfy him in terms of salary, and he also has some conflicts with Guardiola.
Pep Guardiola wanted a center forward to enrich his tactical play, and the Barcelona hierarchy naturally did not say anything, and the target was the world No. 1 center Ibrahimovic.
The two sides hit it off, Rajola was desperate to move Ibrahimovic to the strongest team, Barcelona, and Inter Milan had no intention of staying after Ibrahimovic showed his willingness to leave.
The Inter Milan hierarchy has actually accepted a media narrative that Ibrahimovic is the king of the league, but in the Champions League he is a soft-footed shrimp.
Barcelona's offer included Samuel Eto'o, who is two years older than Ibrahimovic but has performed better than Ibrahimovic in European competition.
So the deal was finally approved by both parties, and the big deal was completed very quickly.
Inter Milan manager Jose Mourinho had no idea that the hierarchy was going to sell Ibrahimovic, and when he did, it was a foregone conclusion.
He was very angry about this matter, and the contradictions between him and the top management of Inter Milan began to appear.
In addition to the two giants of the Western Super League, the transfer market in the Premier League is also very lively, with Serie A and Bundesliga being relatively bland.
The Bundesliga has always been difficult for other teams except Bayern Munich to make big moves, while Serie A is due to the economic recession, and many owners are reluctant to invest money in the team.
On the afternoon of August 16, there were still more than ten minutes before the game, and the Schalke Stadium was full, and the first game of the new season at home, the championship coach Magat, these were all arousing the desire of Schalke 04 fans to watch the game.
Teacher Xie's family was taken to Zhang Yuan's box by Mai Xuewen, and today there were not only them but also Neuer's family who came here to watch the game, and after greeting them, Mai Xuewen took Teacher Xie's family to sit in the stands outside.
The atmosphere of the scene was very warm, Mr. Xie seemed very excited, the first time in his life to Germany to watch the game, the atmosphere of Germany's home stadium is really not covered, as far as the eye can see, except for the away team seats, all are densely packed with human heads, blue ocean, fans are singing loudly.
"The live feeling is really different, it looks much more lively than on TV!" Teacher Xie sighed.
"Yes, there are at least 80,000 people at the scene!" Mai Xuewen said quite smugly, as if he was also a member of Schalke.
Mr. Xie has known this answer for a long time, but the scene looks like 80,000 people is indeed spectacular, and it is hard to imagine that the population of Gelsenkirchen is actually not much.
For example, in cities with a population of several million in China, 2 or 30,000 people are not satisfied with the stadium, which also shows that the atmosphere in China is completely inferior to that of Germany.
"Playing in such an environment, there should be a lot of pressure on the players, right?" Teacher Xie asked.
"It's good to get used to it, and when it comes to the game, they are usually not too easily disturbed by the fans!" Mak explained.
Soon the players from both sides came out, and Schalke 04 sent a 442 formation today, still in a diamond-shaped position.
The goalkeeper is Manuel Neuer, while the back line is Raphinha, Zamorano, Digan and Hevedes.
In midfield, Farfan, Westerman, Moritz, Rakitic
On the front line, Zhang Yuan and Kuranyi are still partnered.
Schalke 04, who played at home, was very imposing, and at the beginning of the game, he launched a fierce attack on the half of the Bochum team, and Zhang Yuan was also very active.
In the fifteenth minute, he received a back-heel pass from Farfan, connected two of them, and then pushed the far corner from the right side of the small penalty area, and easily helped Schalke 04 get a good start.
Yahya and Fuchs did not cooperate well when defending Zhang Yuan, and as a result, Zhang Yuan easily took advantage of the change in rhythm to pass them over.
Zhang Yuan rushed to the sidelines to make his own kneeling celebration, and the fans cheered loudly "Lightning Boy"!
Teacher Xie was very excited, and slapped his palms vigorously, but he didn't expect that he brought good luck to Zhang Yuan, and Zhang Yuan scored a goal in only fifteen minutes after the opening, beautiful, simple and perfect!
As the game continued, in the face of Schalke 04's heavy pressure, the Bochum team had no choice but to defend passively.
Head coach Coral is constantly directing the team's defense on the sidelines, but blindly defending passively and unable to seize the opportunity to counterattack, sooner or later he will concede the goal.
In stoppage time, Zhang Yuan received a pass from Rakitic over the top, Zhang Yuan stepped forward and was blocked by Yahya for a foul, Schalke 04 got a free kick opportunity, Zhang Yuan personally took the penalty and hit a falling leaf ball, which hung in the dead corner.
Schalke 04 ended the first half 2-0, Rakitic was knocked to the ground by Epale after the pass just now, suffered a slight injury, and could not play in the second half.
In the second half, Magath had to send the last game to play well, Kgna was not on the field, Schalke 04's organization was a little worse, Farfan was not good at organization at all, and the Bochum team was gradually able to attack, unlike the first half just blindly counterattacking.
In the 76th minute, Kuranyi played the ball and Farfan fired a long-range shot from the edge of the box through the Helwagen goalkeeper, and he had to pick up the ball from the net for the third time.
Falfan was very excited after the goal, his performance last season was really average, and at the beginning of this season, it was not as fast as Zhang Yuan's rapid firepower, but he also performed more eye-catching in two games, completing a goal and an assist.
Bochum made a substitution at the start of the second half, and by the 70th minute it was all substitutions, but the result was still not as good as Coral had imagined.
At the end of the 90 minutes, Schalke 04 defeated Bochum, the younger brother of the Ruhr area, 3:0 at home, achieving two consecutive wins in the league, and Zhang Yuan also temporarily dominated the scorer list with 4 goals. (To be continued.) )
