Granada vs Deportivo La Coruna 2
In the stadium live broadcast room, the staff from the sports channel of Spanish national television are also ready to broadcast a wonderful and passionate match for fans and friends around the world.
The football commentator is still the same as the one who commented on Barcelona vs Granada in the last game, and this time the audience remembered his name - Eddie Mendoza. Today's live broadcast room also invited a football commentator as a guest, partnering with Mendoza to bring wonderful commentary to the audience. He is the former Deportivo player known as the 'Spanish Zidane' - Juan Bellerón.
Mendoza pretended to be mysterious: "Deportivo La Coruna has met an opponent today, this summer Granada picked up a big treasure from Real Madrid, was hidden by Gonzalez for five rounds, and shocked the whole of Spain in just twenty minutes." “
Belleron didn't look surprised at all: "You must be talking about their No. 5 player, Leo Fernandez?" ”
Mendoza said in a particularly exaggerated tone: "In the last game against Barcelona against Granada, the eldest son of Zizou came out in the last 20 minutes and scored a hat-trick to help Granada turn around. It was I who narrated the game, and I suffered a lot for the rest of the week. ”
With some time to go before the start of the game, there was a warm-up on the pitch, and Belleron was caught by his 'suffering': "I'm interested to know what happened? ”
Mendoza said bitterly: "Speaking of that game, it was really ups and downs, who would have thought that Granada, who is at the bottom of the points this season, would kill Barcelona at Camp Nou. Fernandes' 20-minute match attracted so many fans, especially female fans, who left me messages on Twitter, Facebook, and even letters and phone calls after the game, denouncing me for questioning Fernandez's ability and expression in the commentary. They also said that Fernandez is the son of Zizou, and his outstanding appearance is inherited from his mother, and his extraordinary talent is inherited from his father, so how can he not play well? ”
What Mendoza didn't say was: "How much does it have to do with whether he plays well or not, and whether he has inherited his mother's outstanding foreign trade?" ”
"I watched that match, and Fernandes' watch was really eye-catching, and I still can't forget that wonderful Marseille slalom and his calmness when he faced the German lion king single-handedly. Is it a flash of genius or an innate talent? Judging from the list we got, his name is in the starting lineup for this game, so let's take a look at his table today and make a final conclusion. ”
"The players from both sides were in and the game started immediately, starting with Deportivo La Coruna. They use a 442 formation on the field, while Granada is their usual 451 formation. Now it is Deportivo La Coruna attacking, with the ball being Alberto, the number 21 left midfielder, and defending him is Granada's No. 8 captain Marx, the two are in a stalemate, and the teammates next to him have rushed to support. Alberto's ball was lost, and Marx stepped in decisively and broke the ball. ”
"Alberto is still too hesitant, after getting the ball, he should quickly transfer the ball to his teammates and attack before the opponent can return to the defense in time," Belleron said regretfully. ”
It has only been two years since Bellerón retired, and many of the players on the pitch of Deportivo are his former teammates, and he is very familiar with the characteristics of each one, which is why the sports channel brought him in as a commentator for the game. But in terms of personal feelings, he must be biased towards Deportivo La Coruna. And Leo is the son of Zidane, and he is always called 'Spanish Zidane', although this is a good reputation in the eyes of the outside world, but in fact this is not a pleasant 'compliment' in itself, otherwise why not say that Zidane is France's Belleron? After all, there is only a 3-year difference between them.
Mendoza paid close attention to the shape on the field: "Marx passed the ball to Fernandez, who was not in a hurry to pass the ball, he seemed to look up and observe the position of his teammates. Deportivo centre-back No.14 Olibus defended him, and Fernandes defended the ball with a deft turn. He is still dribbling the ball, he has arrived outside the penalty area, let's see what he is going to do with this ball, Deportivo La Coruna has 3 defenders coming up to scramble, Fernandez grabbed the gap and sent the ball into the penalty area, after playing a back, Córdoba started slowly, he didn't even touch the ball, and was directly confiscated by goalkeeper Lukes. ”
"There is no tacit understanding between the two men, Fernandes is very dangerous with the ball, but his team-mates don't understand his intentions. After all, he is only a new player and has not yet formed a certain cooperation with his teammates, so it seems that Gonzalez has scheduled him to start a little prematurely. ”
Mendoza continued: "In the TV footage, Córdoba frustrated his hands at Fernández, who just lowered his head and kicked the turf with his toes, and did not respond. ”
Leo was a little depressed, just now when passing the ball has signaled to Córdoba, as long as he stepped forward at the moment of his feet, this ball goalkeeper is difficult to prevent, but inexplicably, Córdoba's action is half a beat slower, a millimeter, a thousand miles, the ball speed is so fast, as long as he reacts slowly even a few tenths of a second, he will miss the opportunity.
What he wasn't sure was if his teammates were deliberately finding fault or if they were really inadvertently making mistakes.
Captain Marx came over and gently patted Leo on the shoulder, whispering to comfort him: "Don't take it personally, Horn may just be worried about offside." ”
Leo nodded, thanked Marx for his kindness, and got back into the game.
A thought suddenly flashed through his mind, if it was Ronaldo, he would have sprayed people a long time ago.
At half past eight tonight, Real Madrid will take on the Sheets Army Atletico Madrid at the Vicente Calderón Stadium. This city derby has attracted the attention of the whole of Madrid and even Spain.
Leo sent a text message to Ronaldo before he came on the pitch: "Do you want to compare and see who scored more goals today?" ”
Ronaldo replied to him with only two words: "Look for death." ”
Immediately after Ronaldo's second text message, he sent: "What's the stake? ”
Leo thought for a moment and said, "If you lose, you can surprise my brother Theo on his 9th birthday next month." If I lose, it's up to you. ”
"Send a tweet and tell the world that you're a CR7 fan."
“……”
"It's a free kick in front of Deportivo La Coruna, and it's the No. 5 Mosqueira who chooses to hit the goal, oh! The ball flew off the field, too far off. After more than ten minutes of the opening period, it seems that neither side has yet entered the state. The game on the field was a bit dull, and Mendoza began to chat with his partner to adjust the atmosphere: "Mr. Bellerón, you were the main member of the 'Super Laco' era and won many honors with the team, what do you think is the current Deportivo team compared to the 'Super Laco' of the year?" ”
Mendoza put it mildly, but it was not enough, it was simply a hundred and eight thousand miles away. The 'Super Laco' of the year was synonymous with flamboyance and technology, they killed Juventus, Manchester United, Bayern Munich, Arsenal that was unbeaten in 49 consecutive games, lost 4-1 away to AC Milan, and returned to Milan 4-0 to achieve a big reversal, maintaining an unbeaten record against Real Madrid and Barcelona for 18 years.
However, these Belleron can't speak, after more than a dozen seasons of ups and downs, the 'Super Laco' that shattered the dreams of countless giants and made all fans crazy, all the glory and glory can only be sealed in the team's honor room and the memory of fans.
"It's a team with a lot of fame and a lot of fighting, and although most of the players are young guys in their early 20s, they have dreams, they have hard work, they need to sharpen and grow, and I'm looking forward to them being able to take Laco back on the road to revival."
Although Mendoza was chatting with his partner, his attention was always on the court: "Let's look at the ball, Granada quickly found the captain after Doria broke the ball, Marx was the first to look for Fernandez after taking the ball, the two tacitly hit the wall and got rid of Deportivo Lauruna's defender Laure, Fernandez glanced at the position of the opposing defender, a through pass was ready to hand the ball to Córdoba in the front line, the linesman raised the flag, the ball was offside?" ”
Bellerón continued: "Look at the camera replay, Cordoba was not offside before Fernandez passed, and the moment he passed, two Deportivo defenders retreated, and Córdoba was half offside at this time. ”
Mendoza said with pity: "It seems that the Granada demon who made a great contribution last week was a little unsatisfactory today, and the two important passes were not in place. ”
Leo wiped the sweat from his forehead, this should have been an anti-offside tactical coordination, but what happened to the extra half of the body?
Just a few minutes later, in the Deportivo penalty area, Córdoba hit a hammer and headed past Lukes, but the assist was not from Fernandes, but from winger Franrique.
