Chapter 326: Mourinho who broke out
After learning that Liverpool had won the game, Mourinho, who had been sent to the players' tunnel, looked extremely ugly. If it weren't for such an important game as the Carabao Cup final, the Portuguese really didn't want to attend the post-match press conference.
"There is no doubt that TO is a phenomenal goalkeeper! We can't predict what he will bring us. Faced with a question about Tang Wu, Mourinho said frankly.
'But I still don't think goals can be a standard for judging goalkeepers.'
"If you just talk about goalkeeping, Peter did well in this game."
"That's right, I mean, I'm happy with him, you don't have to ask!"
Jose Mourinho has been embroiled in a verbal war with the media since he arrived in the UK.
Part of this is due to his personality, and part of it is because of a rookie young coach who wants to stand up in the Premier League, so he must be tough.
All the while, although Mourinho is crazy, judging by Chelsea's performance, the media has nothing to say.
With the second half of the league going on, the FA Cup and League Cup defeats have left the media with a way to deal with Mourinho.
Coupled with Tang Wu's "sudden rise", the media will always compare Tang Wu and Cech after the game, which annoys Mourinho.
I admit to being amazing, but are you guys blind? Can't see the credit for Cech?
Faced with repeated questions from the media, Mourinho finally couldn't help but say: "Last week, someone asked me whether I would like to be loved by people in football or would I like to win trophies, and I replied that I only want to win trophies, I don't want to be loved by you." Don't expect to pressure me, no way! I've got trophies, I've got money and I can live without this job at Chelsea. ”
'It seems to me that you [the media] have done everything you can to interfere with Chelsea and try to undermine our confidence. After the previous Manchester United game, you talked more about Chelsea than about Manchester United. This gesture is for you, don't be in such a hurry to give your opinion, Chelsea will win the title! ”
Perhaps because there was too much resentment in the backlog, Mourinho was going to vent it out, and he even began to point directly at English football as a conqueror. "The only thing I need to understand is that I'm in England now and I have to learn to adapt and maybe make changes to your country even if I think I'm right."
'I'm not under pressure at all, I've read too many times this week that I have to prove myself in England, but Sir Alex [Alex] [Alex] is the only European champion in the country and what do I need to prove?'
Mourinho's meaning is clear, only Alex Ferguson has won the Champions League trophy in England in recent years, and no one else is in a position to ask him to prove anything.
'I hope today's question, after Chelsea win the title at the end of the season, you won't ask it again!' After Mourinho finished speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left.
Mourinho's outburst shows that he has a considerable resentment against the English media.
Maybe Jose Gerrard's 'shut up' gesture after Gerrard's own goal was really given to the reporters in the media gallery, but so what?
The discourse was in the hands of the media, and Chelsea lost the title in the final minute of the game. Mourinho will have to wait for Chelsea to win the league title if he wants to really and completely break out.
After the game, Tang Wu was named the best of the game.
Whether it was his brilliant save or his last-minute free-kick blasting straight into the goal, it was the brightest moment of the game.
Resilience was key to Liverpool's victory, as they gritted their teeth more than their opponents and were more consistent. In a sense, Tang Wu is the embodiment of the tenacious style of the Red Army.
He has been the most consistent Reds player so far this season, has never been in a slump and has always been at the heart of Benitez's defence.
"The genius goalkeeper Yang Wei again, the world wave broke through the door of the old club!" "As"
"World-class saves and free-kicks, he proved what it means to be able to do it!" Marca
"Liverpool plays utilitarian football, and he is the one behind it?" The Daily Telegraph
"Hand and kick, catch Mickey's!" The Liverpool Echo
The European media did not hesitate to put praise on Tang Wu, and no one thought it was excessive.
Not only in the League Cup, but also in the final of any of Europe's four major leagues, the final of a cup is won by a goalkeeper's free kick. Tang Wu can do this, which can be regarded as unprecedented.
After Liverpool won the championship, the craze set off at home was not even worse than that of the United Kingdom.
In China, when Yang Chen logged into the Bundesliga, whether he started or scored his first goal, it would cause an uproar.
Now Tang Wu is the absolute main force to help Liverpool win the League Cup, and this championship is of cross-era significance!
According to the Information Times, this is a victory for individualism, a game of star guidance. Obviously, Tang Wu is this star.
Football is an eleven-man sport, but there have always been stars in history who have dominated the game. For example, Maradona, Ronaldo.
At a time when Liverpool's forward line was short of a major general, Tang Wu helped Liverpool score the winning goal as a goalkeeper, which has fully demonstrated his importance to the team.
Retreat can be impregnable, advance can attack the city and pull out the village, Tang Wu has become the "soul of the Red Army".
"Oriental Sports Daily" "overall view" is relatively strong, with Tang Wu's performance in recent games, commented, "Tang Wu's alternative performance in the Premier League may set off a goalkeeper revolution, it is not difficult to foresee, even if the future goalkeeper can not meet both offensive and defensive needs, at least can not limit their range of activities to that small penalty area." ”
In the end, "Sports Daily" even rose to the national level, taking advantage of Tang Wu's influence in the Premier League and Europe, and exporting players to the European arena to the greatest extent. In time, the Chinese team will have 11 players who have played in Europe.
These players can form the main team of the national team when they are active, and they can also serve as coaches of various clubs in the Chinese Super League after retirement.
In this way, from players to teams to domestic leagues, Chinese football will develop in the next two or three decades.
Perhaps influenced by Tang Wu, in the 67th minute of the FA Cup fifth round replay at Bramall Road on March 2, Sheffield United replaced a football veteran with the number 39 on his back.
In the 79th minute of the game, Sheffield United got a great opportunity Andy Gray crossed low from the right side of the offside position, Hao Cannon quickly stepped forward, and pushed a left-footed shot from 6 meters in front of the goal to help Sheffield United equalize at home.
All Chinese fans were expecting the 39-year-old Hao Dacang to score in his debut, and when it came, the stadium finally fell into a sea of jubilation.
Arsenal are missing a large number of key playersThierry Henry, Campbell and Pire are injured, and Bergkamp, Reyes and Robin van Persie are suspended.
However, the Gunners were not so easy to bully, and in the end the two sides played to a 1-1 draw after 120 minutes, and only a brutal penalty shoot-out was held.
In the end, Sheffield United were eliminated 3-5, and Hao came out third, and after he scored, neither team-mate had the ball in the back of the net.
Although the FA Cup was eliminated, Hao Dacang was in good spirits. After meeting with the fans, he said to the media with high spirits: "I came here to study as a half-player and half-coach, but Don Jr. plays so well here, I can't miss the cowardice, right?" ”
"Before the game, I also thought about helping Sheffield United advance to a new discussion competition, and finally meet Don Jr.'s Liverpool to stage a "conflict between China". But now that it's out, I don't have much to say. ”
"But there will be more and more young Chinese players coming to play in the UK, and I can't watch this one with Xiao Tang, but I think there will definitely be more opportunities in the future, so that everyone can see the 'Chinese derby' between young people in the Premier League."
"Finally, thank you for your continued support to me and the national football team, I hope you can persevere, I will not disappoint you!" After Hao Dacang finished speaking, with an obvious smile, he walked back to the player's tunnel.
In the other two games, Southampton knocked out Brentford 3-1 away, while Blackburn Rovers lost 1-0 at Liverpool, who had just won the Carabao Cup, and the Reds managed to progress 4-0 over two legs.
