472 Europa League final
Dosmingo's coaching skills have been good, leading Braga to second place in the league in their first season in the Portuguese Super League, the highest ranking in Braga's history, and they also made history by reaching the Europa League final this year.
Jiang Shan found that West Ham's situation was somewhat similar to Braga's. Second place in the league and then a first-time Europa League final.
Aviva Stadium, Dublin, Ireland.
Fans from both sides have already entered, with more than 8,000 West Ham fans in attendance, after all, Ireland is next door to England, which is even shorter. Both teams were able to get around 6,000 tickets, and West Ham fans had a way to get 2,000 more people into the stadium.
As far as the eye can see, burgundy with sky blue jerseys are everywhere, which is the traditional color of West Ham's jerseys, and with white shorts, it somehow feels like a gang organization.
The affectionate name for Chinese fans - the Axe Gang. Jiang Shan doesn't like it very much, it is obviously the Hammer Gang on behalf of the working class, how can it be the Axe Gang?
Compared to the Carabao Cup winner, who only has a prize money of £100,000, West Ham can earn at least 30 million euros or more by reaching the Europa League final.
Moreover, the income of the Champions League and Europa League is still rising, and the income of the Europa League winners is even expected to exceed the 45 million euro mark in the next few years.
At the end of this season, West Ham has received nearly 100 million pounds in various broadcast fees, which is enough to meet the team's expenses, and even the initial investment in buying the team has been quickly made up by the high broadcast costs.
By next season, they will participate in the Champions League, and as long as they reach the round of 16, they will earn more than 30 million euros in broadcasting fees, which is quite a considerable amount of broadcasting fee income.
In any case, this is the Europa League title, and Jiangshan even gave up the fight for the league title and prepared early. In this season's Premier League, Manchester United reached the Champions League final and West Ham reached the Europa League final.
England, who are arrogant, have even begun to look ahead to whether next season's UEFA Super Cup can be played between two English teams. Of course, Manchester United will have to be lucky enough to beat Barcelona.
Their opponent is not Braga's gear.
In the goalkeeper position, Jiang Shan is still arranging the start of this season's cup competition, De Gea, who has only made one substitute appearance in the league, but has started in the League Cup, FA Cup and Europa League, and the trend of the top position is obvious.
Green sat on the bench and was already distracted, Jiang Shan obviously regarded him as a goalkeeper in the transition period, and next season, perhaps the main goalkeeper will be snatched away by De Gea.
On the back line are the England pairing, Baines, Gary Cahill, captain Upson, Glenn Johnson.
In the midfield position, Kroos and Parker started together, with the combination of Reuss, Modric and Bale in front, and in the forward position, Lewandowski was the starter.
Suarez was unlucky, with a small injury before the game, Jiang Shan had to put him on the bench, and only let him play when he couldn't open the situation.
There were also players on the bench, such as David Silva, Ballack and Hargreaves, who were not in enough form to sustain the whole game.
Braga also did their best, putting on a 433 formation to confront Jiangshan's 4231 formation. However, their squad is under-stard, goalkeeper Artur, Miguel Garcia, Alberto Rodriguez, Paolao and Silvio Pereira in the back line, and the midfield trio of Viana, Custodio and Wandingho.
Up front, the combination of Alain, Lima and Paulo Cesar.
Once the game began, West Ham changed their normal behavior and directly controlled the pace of the game, and moreover, brought the pace of the game very fast.
Bale and Royce were two high-speed rocket jets, and as soon as they got on the field, they gave Braga a dismount.
Luka Modric has become the playmaker of the midfield, and his possession and rhythm are an integral part of West Ham's, even against the Premier League's tall midfielders.
The tentative phase of the two sides passed quickly, and under the leadership of West Ham, the two sides really started to fight.
Braga started particularly passively, and the breakthrough of Bale and Reus was simply irresistible, and they could only continue to delay West Ham's attack with foul tactics.
The defence was prone to warnings and would have conceded the goal had it not been for goalkeeper Artur's attention.
Under the high-speed impact of West Ham, Braga's defense has too many holes, and the war between the two teams is no longer a competition on a level. Braga is also smart and defended the opening game, otherwise they would have conceded the goal a long time ago.
In the 24th minute of the game, Bale received a long pass from Modric, suddenly accelerated, and threw off Silvio Pereira in an instant, and Wandingho chased after him, and could only eat dirt.
Bale accelerated, accelerated, burst into the vicinity of the big penalty area, made sharp turns, cut inside, and the action was very light and beautiful. Lewandowski understood and immediately shifted the battle line, pulled to the side, and lurked near the penalty area.
Bale accelerated, couldn't pull it back, saw Lewandowski and Reus take the defender away, decisively kicked up, and shot violently.
The ball is very fast, and the shot in the high-speed march is quite the style of Kaka, except for the ugly people, the action is really good-looking. And, the effect is great too.
Artur's attention was very focused, his eyes flickered, and Royce appeared in front of him, quickly roared, and flew to save, but the speed was a little slower, and his arms were not long enough.
Bale finally scored to break the deadlock and give West Ham a 1-0 lead.
It was a golden goal, West Ham, who opened the situation, held the rhythm of the game more firmly in their hands, Braga's players rarely failed to grab the ball, and there was only one thought in their hearts, "West Ham are really a Premier League team?" ”
Even if the counterattack is sharp, the control rhythm is so stable, others still think it is Barcelona's control flow! Not really.
West Ham were also aggressive defensively, with Braga players passing the ball across the half-pitch and finding West Ham players everywhere, their speed of movement and being crushed by West Ham early.
Hard work.
Lima advanced with the ball and was tackled, Baines had not passed the half, and directly made a long pass to Reus, who accelerated with a small rocket and appeared again at the front of West Ham's penalty area.
In the face of Garcia, who was raised to the defense, Royce calmly knocked the ball with his heel, turned and passed, and his movements were chic and neat, which is a handsome player.
Lewandowski was already ready, facing the ball crossed by Reus, took a step forward, dodged the space, and gently picked it up.
The big guy also has great wisdom, and he shot and broke the net and deceived Artur.
Artur punched the ground twice in hatred, "Damn. ”
Dosmingo buried his head, this game, the half is not over yet, in fact, the coffin has been closed, and they can't find any possibility of winning.
Don't be slaughtered, we are the victors. Dosmingo thought to himself, looking at Jiang Shan, that guy was on the sidelines, as if he was not satisfied with the team's performance, "Jiang Shan is really handsome." ”
"Well, well, let Ballack come on in the second half and feel the weight of the Europa League trophy, poor guy." Jiang Shan walked back to the coach's box, "Of course, we still need a goal. ”
