Chapter 122: Europa League Final!
Yile was injured but it did not affect Tottenham's preparations.
Now that Tottenham have won the Premier League, they don't have much interest in the next two league rounds.
Villas-Boas came on almost entirely as a substitute, giving his squad plenty of rest time to prepare for the Europa League final.
On May 19, 2016, the Europa League final was held in Switzerland. Basel's home stadium, St. Jacob's Park.
Both teams, Tottenham Hotspur vs Sevilla.
Sevilla line-up (4-5-1):
Goalkeeper: Soria.
Defenders: Mariano, Lamy, Carico, Teremulinas
Midfielders: Krijowiak, Nzunzi, Koke, Banega, Vitolo.
Forward: Gameiro.
......
Tottenham Hotspur (4-5-1):
Goalkeeper: Lloris.
Defender: Ben. Davis, Aldved, Verhenton, Volker.
Midfielder: Dele. Ali, Son Heung-min, Eric. Dale, Thomas. Carol, Lemela.
Striker: Harry. Kane.
.....
After seeing Tottenham's lineup, the La Liga commentator couldn't help but smile: "Sevilla is getting closer and closer to winning three consecutive Europa Leagues, and they are vulnerable, and the threat of Tottenham without this terrifying core will be greatly reduced." I think Banega can finally breathe a sigh of relief, he doesn't need to take that monster alone! ”
"Yi is Tottenham's engine, his most terrifying thing is the control of the rhythm, he is like a gearbox, he can switch gears at will, Tottenham's supercar is blessed by Yi, their rhythm change ability is too terrifying."
"That's right! Yi is a player similar to Xavi, but in a more aggressive style, he is like a stunned young man, he comes up and gives you two punches, and when you are beaten, the game is completely dominated by him. ”
'Sevilla are lucky that they don't have to face a full-fledged Tottenham and that would be a sad story!'
On the one hand, Yile was born in La Masia and belongs to the players trained by the La Liga academy, and from a certain point of view, they are their own people.
So, and Yile's performance this season speaks volumes.
Serbia's Banega, despite being a good midfielder, is nowhere near as dominant as Yile.
There is no turret role of Yile, if the two sides compete, Banega is likely to be completely destroyed by Yile.
Before the game, the La Liga media also had this kind of speculation, but now there is no need to worry about this, Yi Le was injured in the race for the Premier League title, and he will not play.
This is very good news for Sevilla.
......
In the stands, the stands of the fans on both sides are clearly distinguished.
And since the home shirts of Sevilla and Tottenham are white, Tottenham fans took the initiative to change into blue away shirts to distinguish them.
This time, Tottenham Hotspur came to more than 30,000 fans.
They have already won a title and if they win the Europa League, they will be the double of the season!
This is extremely exciting for Tottenham fans.
Of course, it doesn't matter if they lose, Tottenham are not hungry for the Europa League title, they are content and they have received their best gift this season.
Premier League Champions!
Tottenham fans understand that it was a tough game.
Tottenham's midfield was leaderless after Yile's injury.
And it's not just Yile who is injured, Elkeson is also injured, the two core points are in the stands, and the scheduling of the midfield is pressed on Dele. Ali on him.
But honestly, Dele. Ali doesn't have the midfield dominance of Yile.
He is a general who is good at charging into battle, but he is not a handsome man who is strategizing!
Let him sort out the rhythm, and Tottenham will probably play hard.
At this time, two familiar figures suddenly appeared on the big screen, which caused Tottenham fans to burst into huge cheers.
Yi Le and Elkeson sat in the audience in casual clothes, and they also came to watch the game.
Easy!!
Easy!!
Easy!!
Easy!!
Easy!!
The Tottenham fans cheered non-stop, and Yi Le also reflected, smiling and waving, which made the cheers on the scene even more intense.
Seeing this scene, the Spanish commentator couldn't help but sigh: "The influence of terror, he is the darling of Tottenham!" ”
......
Inside the dressing room, Tottenham are preparing for the game.
Dele. Ali looked a little nervous, his feet shaking constantly, his heart pounding rapidly, and although he kept taking deep breaths to adjust, it still didn't calm down.
This game, Dele. Ali has a lot of work to do, he needs to coordinate the midfield!
When Yile is no longer on the field, he needs to shoulder the responsibility of the organization!
This caused him a lot of pressure.
All season, he has been playing the role of a breakthrough player, and he does not need to worry about the connection and scheduling of the midfield, because his team-mate is Yile, and his presence allows every Tottenham player to play without any burden.
Because their midfield is strong, they will receive a steady stream of shells, and they are extremely sure of this!
Dele. The same goes for Ali.
But when their thigh, the team dad was injured, and the dispatch fell on him, Dele. Ali couldn't help but be a little apprehensive.
It was a crucial game and he was afraid that he would not play well, and he had confidence in his breakthrough and passing, but it was too difficult to put him in the role of midfield commander.
"Guys, get ready." Boas clapped his hands loudly and shouted.
Tottenham players got up one after another, Dele. Ali also followed the team into the field.
Five minutes later, the game began...
'We can see that Tottenham have taken the lead in attacking aggressively, that's their style, it's just that they've been a bit chaotic in the midfield. Alli played too much of a mess, he wanted to attack too much, and it made a mess of Tottenham's high tempo. ”
The situation in the field was a bit chaotic, Tottenham were attacking, but they always couldn't get the ball out of the centre circle, and on the wing, Son Heung-min also tried to break through a few times, but the results were not high.
Dele. Alli was in a hurry to attack, but instead caused Tottenham to play a bit of a chaotic game.
Seeing this scene, Yi Le in the stands also frowned slightly.
"He's imitating you!" Elkeson hit the nail on the head.
Yi Le said: "Ali is a little nervous. ”
Elkeson shook his head and said: "It's true that there is a problem with the mentality, he wants to maintain the previous style of play of Tottenham, so he keeps imitating your various ways of playing, but you two are different styles of players, he can't play you effectively." ”
Suddenly, Dele. Ali stuffs in a through ball.
What to say about this through ball....
Well... Due to the pursuit of too much angle, he was cut off by the Serbian player.
Looking from the stands, there is a kind of Dele. Ali gives the feeling of passing the ball to the opponent.
"This ......"
Elkeson was dumbfounded and said, "How could he make such a mistake!" ”
Yi Le also shook his head and said: "Don't you think the angle and timing of the straight ball are a little familiar?" ”
Forehead.....
Elkeson was speechless: "He's still imitating you!" ”
In the arena, Dele. Ali was a little dazed.
That's not right, that's how Yi Mingming plays, why was my through ball broken?
I've tried to maintain Tottenham's midfield, so why is it playing more chaotic?
Dele. Ali was completely lost.
......
In the dugout, Boas stood with assistant coach Michelle.
Michelle frowned and said, "Ali didn't resist the pressure. ”
"Tottenham's midfield curse!" Boas also shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Tottenham have a midfield curse, mainly because Tottenham's two-term midfield core is suddenly not human.
The pressure of his predecessor Luka Modric has kept Elkeson invisible.
The pressure on the incumbent Eile makes Dele. Ali is completely lost...
Tottenham's midfield is a pit!
If you don't have the best strength, then try not to challenge this position, it will make you doubt life.
After Modric's departure, Elkeson could barely make ends meet, and Yile's arrival was able to completely resist the pressure and even rejuvenate it.
But after Yile was injured, Dele. Ali took the place again and the midfield curse was repeated.
