Volume 4 Chapter 68 Bright Sword, Meet the Enemy!
"Midfield, midfield, midfielder," Capello's stern shouts were once again mixed with cheers from the sidelines through the walls that resounded in the England dressing room.
He waved his arms, trying to make himself more imposing, and he was not nervous when he was only one step away from the last step of the long march.
"We must not let Spain easily turn the ball up in the midfield, we have to stick to them like leeches, so that they can't breathe easily"
"Three lines, pay attention to protect the distance, Joe Hart, it is important to attack today, concentrate all your attention, after 90 minutes will you be able to become real heroes, don't disgrace England, don't disgrace yourself!"
Almost all the players did not speak, not dull, but mentally focused, their eyes focused, and only the last thing left in their chests, the will to fight, the will to fight, the will to fight!
Capello glanced at the main players who were about to come on one by one, and Beckham stood aside, and today he changed his new hairstyle, Capello didn't care, because it could somewhat distract England.
"There are no more people than the England fans and ourselves who think we can beat the mighty Spain, after all, they are the European champions, but I hope that at the end of the day, I can also praise you for your performance and not console a loser!"
The roar of passion, yes, who lacks passion at this time, you can shout it out, or you can press it in your chest.
"The road is ...... under your feet", he opened the door of the locker room with a slurp, and the noise outside instantly poured in.
Gerrard reconfirmed the captain's armband on his arm, stood up first, didn't speak, and walked down the tunnel with his head down, followed by more players.
Like a harbinger of a dull thunderstorm, holding back what is coming, perhaps, is a violent storm.
The referee team led by Italian referee Rossetti has already stood in the aisle, waiting for the players from both sides to line up.
He has been the biggest star in the world of refereeing in recent years, and after officiating the opening and final of the European Championship two years ago, he was given the opportunity to officiate the World Cup final today.
The British bald Webber has already fainted in the toilet crying by himself, originally arranged in sequence, he should be the referee of the World Cup final, but who let England break into the final?
Except for Alonso, the other friends on the opposite side were standing at the end of the team in training uniforms, including Torres and Mackin They already knew, and simply touched Alonso's palm, and they were just said hello.
"England compatriots, the game is about to start, it's our first final in 44 years, and in South Africa, the lads are going to make the strongest impact on the Hercules Cup today," said the BBC studio, with the exception of Wilson, Alan Shearer and Big Neville.
"Even though we won the trophy in '66, it was the Remet Gold Cup and today we want to engrave England's name on the Hercules Cup," says Wilson with the same excitement.
Before the game, his column "Tactical Duel to Win" detailed analysis of Spain's style of play and England's advantages, which attracted widespread attention in England.
One of the most crucial arguments was the abandonment of the main striker, Crouch, who shared Alan Shearer's view that to win against Spain, it was necessary to rely on mobility and impact.
This analysis is confirmed in the starting list released by the two teams before the game, at this time, Rossetti was the first to step into the stadium from the aisle with the cheers of the whole field, and he was followed by two columns, one white and one red.
The live broadcast signal played the starting lineups of the two teams today in a timely manner:
England starters:
Goalkeeper: Joe Hart
Defenders: Ashley Cole, John Terry, Carragher, Glen Johnson
Midfielders: Frank Lampard, Barry, Mackqin, Gerrard, Milner
Striker: Wayne Rooney
Spain starters:
Goalkeeper: Casillas
Defenders: Capdevilla, Puyol, Pique, Ramos
Midfielders: Butskec, Alonso, Xavi
Forwards: Iniesta, Villa, Pedro
"Both sides have changed their starting line-ups, England have removed Crouch, Spain has removed Torres, this is a surprise and logical change for us, both veterans are very bold!" , Lineker said in a high voice.
"Yes, Milner on our side has only been an occasional substitute before, and the same is true for Spain's Pedro, and the average coach doesn't have the guts to start these two newcomers in such an important game," Wilson echoed.
"God Save the Queen" and "Royal March" took turns playing over the stadium, and their respective fan phalanxes sang along, and the camera occasionally focused on the Queen of England and the Queen of Spain in the VIP seats.
But the Spanish national anthem has no lyrics, although the government has ordered the collection, but so far they have not been able to get the lyrics that are widely recognized by the society, so today they still have no lyrics, just follow the tune of the national anthem, hum, hum, hum.
The world is so big that there are no surprises, and the Spaniards think it's actually good!
"Whoa", "Toot toot", buzz zula mixed with the noisy shouts of the stands swept towards the green field, and the moment of preparation for war had come to an end.
Spain took the initiative to shake hands with England as the away team, and everyone was shallow.
England want to regain their glory, Spain wants to achieve their zero breakthrough, and the two old coaches do not have the impetuosity of young people, and sit comfortably in their own coaches' seats.
Isabella and Emin both clasped their hands together and prayed to the sky, and many of the fans in the stands dressed in color and the fans of both teams before the live broadcast crossed their fingers and firmly pressed them against their mouths, only in this way could their increasingly obvious tension be relieved.
The wind was howling in the sky, and there was only a light breeze left in the venue, and the weather was a little cooler, especially at night.
England and Spain both wore long-sleeved shirts, but it won't be long before they are sweating profusely and getting their blood boiling.
Everyone was waiting, and Rossetti walked to the center circle, and the camera was now firmly focused on him, as if he were the judge who could now decide everything.
"Beep ......", a sharp whistle finally broke the dull wait, Villa and Pedro quickly handed the ball to Xavi behind, and the final officially began!
"Boom", the hustle and bustle, "Boom", the war drums thundered.
Rooney and Mackin rushed to the red hinterland together, trying to smash the three gears of their midfield control.
"The game is on, the game is on", Huang Jianxiang shouted, "The Spanish team took the lead in kicking off, attacking from right to left, this is the 2010 World Cup final in South Africa, the final!" ”
There are also countless commentators like him, speaking in various languages, as if the light switch was finally turned on in a dark room, injecting the long-brewing tremor in their chests into their subdued words, spreading this exciting moment.
No commentary, no football, a good commentary will affect 80% of your experience of watching football, especially when watching live broadcasts instead of being on the spot, the atmosphere of the scene must be substituted through the words of the commentary.
Rooney quickly wrapped up with Butskec, who had the ball, and after a season of regular career, Butskecs looked more sophisticated than the last time he met Macklin.
He flicked the ball back with the outside of his instep, and blocked the route of Rooney's steal directly with his back, Rooney desperately squeezed the space forward behind him, Buzketz spread his hands, and as soon as the game began, the two fell into a hand-to-hand confrontation.
"Rooney is playing with his life, and Buzkets is not giving an inch," Huang Jianxiang said.
After at least 5,6 seconds of hand-to-hand fighting, the referee blew a scramble foul on Rooney and gave Spain a free kick at the back.
Mark is not far from Alonso's side, while Xavi is Gerrard, and Barry exists as a sweeping free man in the midfield area, which is a battle between rhythm and anti-rhythm bright sword!
"We saw that England's opening formation was quite targeted", Zhan Jun observed and commented, "Capello actually put Lampard in the left midfield position, Gerrard's position today is not the right midfielder, but the right midfielder, Milner played the right midfield"
"This arrangement has changed very much, it must be to specifically limit Spain, if this position is adopted, how to play, we have to see again"
"Zhan Jun is right", Huang Jianxiang also confirmed, "And you look at Rooney's position, he is not at the front, he is between the front midfielders and forwards, entangled with Buzketz, so it seems that England can almost be called a striker."
"England must have come prepared," Hao Haidong said.
Mack Qin and the midfielders all looked back and forth, left and right, shouting at each other for positions, to the surprise of many well-known managers in the stands and commentators before the live broadcast, England did not retreat!
They didn't retreat!
It's like I'm going to fight you in the midfield!
The England fans in the stands saw this formation as if they had been injected with 400CC of chicken blood again, and their hearts began to beat wildly, "Good job, England", "Kill Spain", "Kill them"
The genes of the Premier League are imprinted in their souls all the time, and the rushing, confrontation, collision, and even bloody fouls are almost equivalent to the glory of the brave in their consciousness!
"Buzketz, open it to Pique, Pique, hand it to Alonso, Alonso, ho, Mr. Ma", Huang Jianxiang exclaimed in surprise.
As soon as Rossetti's whistle was put down and quickly put into his mouth, it blew again, and Mackin grabbed it with a big stride, and his knee went straight into the crook of Alonso's leg.
“The Ball! Ball! Mackin didn't pay any attention to Alonso who fell to the ground, as if they didn't know each other at all, he picked up the ball with his left foot and signaled to Rossetti in a loud voice.
"No, you violated the opponent's body first", Rossetti resolutely pointed to the place of the incident, indicating that it was a free kick from the back, Mark Qin shook his head and took a few steps back before throwing the ball back.
"This kind of Ma is too rare, when have I ever seen him defend so hard," Li Pengpeng said strangely, "This is almost the same as the chairman himself coming down to sweep the floor"
"Mr. Ma, this is morale, you see that I am playing with my life, you are embarrassed not to work hard", Zhao Zuna is responsible for Meng as always.
Huang Jianxiang smiled, "Mr. Ma is really not very involved in defense in Liverpool this season, but this also shows that Spain has put a lot of mental pressure on him today."
"That's right", Zhan Jun said, "Spain, you can't let them fall up in the midfield, if they fall up, you run along, it's over, it's tiring and dangerous, and you can't grab it basically"
In less than a minute of the opening game, there were two fouls, and the two chess masters sat in the coach's seat and did not get up.
Spain doesn't need to change much, because their system is already very mature, the division of the king, the suppression and crushing of the open, Torres can only be regarded as a fine-tuning.
But England can't help but follow Spain, they must clearly understand themselves, put themselves in the position of challengers, act as a division of the brave, and bravely meet the enemy!
Alonso rubbed his leg and stood up, not saying anything, it was all normal and as they expected.
At the beginning of the life-and-death decisive battle, there was no temptation, and it was immediately filled with the smoke of life and death......
