Chapter 67: The Bar
"I think there's hope," Fan said, referring to himself as one of a few fans, "and having an away goal is an advantage, and I think we're going to take advantage of it." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"What an advantage, where does it come from losing a goal." Someone retorted
"We only had to win 1-0 at home, which is a lot better than the form we had against AC Milan, right?" Fan Shang said
"That's true, but it's a big question whether the Asian head coach can make it." Another person said, "In the game with AC Milan, Dugari is in good shape, and now Dugari can't score goals at all in the defensive counterattack, how can he win Bayern Munich." ”
"Why not the other players? Isn't Zidane good? Isn't it okay for Witzger? Isn't Taurot good? Fan Shang saw that these people were just talking to him but not looking at him, their eyes were staring at the screen
"It's a matter of luck, and hopefully someone will step up besides Dugarry."
"You guys are too pessimistic," Fan Shang said this, and before he could speak again, the fans who were discussing looked at him. Startled Fan Shang. "What are you looking at me for?"
"You're... You are... You are Fan Shang! Among them, the person closest to Fan Shang recognized Fan Shang in some dim light.
Several fans were also shocked, how could they have thought that it was the head coach of the team who had been arguing with them for a long time?
"You don't have to look at me so surprised, I'm Vincent, the manager of Bordeaux. I just heard you guys talking about the game against Bayern Munich, so I jumped in and I hope you don't mind. Fan Shang said it very politely
Now Bordeaux fans can be said to have mixed feelings about Vincent. They were thrilled to see Vincent pull Bordeaux out of the relegation quagmire and reach the final of the UEFA Cup. However, Fan Shang's skin color, coupled with Fan Shang's tactics based on defensive counterattacks, is poor to watch, so fans can't accept him all at once.
'Mr. Coach, we apologize for some of the previous remarks. One of them said he felt it was a bit inappropriate to call Vincent the Asian head coach to his face.
"It's okay, I also have a habit of not calling people by name behind my back." Fan didn't care, and then he pointed to his assistant coaches, "Those old boys are my assistant coaches." Fan Shang deliberately called Battistone and the others by old boy.
"You're so friendly, Mr. Coach," said one of the men
"Thank you, just call me Fan Shang, just say you" Fan Shang said, "I hope you have confidence in the team, if even the fans don't have confidence, why do you let the players work the field, why do you score goals?" As he spoke, Fan Shang took out a few tickets from his pocket. I don't know if you have tickets, but if you don't, you can take them, and if you do, you can give them to your friends who support the team. The team needs your support, these tickets are in the back of the dugout, and I hope to hear your cheers when the time comes. ”
A few fans didn't know what to say at the time, just now they said that Bordeaux and Fan Shangbian were worthless, and now they are still coming to give away tickets.
"You take it, I want you to cheer for the team when the team wins, and comfort the team when the team loses. That's what a real die-hard fan should do. Instead of being like those Brits, who hit people and smash cars when they win, and still hit people and smash cars when they lose. Fan Shang saw that a few fans did not accept tickets, and sent them forward
"Thank you, Mr. Manager. Oh no, thank you, Vincent" one of the next votes
"Very good, I don't know you yet, let's introduce each other, my name is Vincent, the head coach of Bordeaux"
"My name is Nikolai"
"My name is Mark"
"My name is Bernal"
…… Several of them said their names.
"Nice to meet you, I'm going to my friend's place, see you next time I have a chance" Fan Shang felt that it was time for him to go
"Good luck, Mr. Manager. Oh no, Vincent," they said.
After Fan Shang left, several people couldn't stop complaining to each other about their recklessness just now. They also have a new understanding of Fan Shang's character and character. They feel that it is unfair to him to say bad things about Fan Shang again, how can the manager who thinks about the club and the team say that he is not good. Since then, several have been working to promote a positive image of Vincent among Bordeaux fans. What's more, Nicola and Bernal, as the two owners of this bar, did not take long to change the name of the bar to "Monsieur Entra?neurs" to correct Vincent's name. Fan Shangke didn't know anything until Fan Shang came to this bar again and saw that it had changed its name, plus many photos of himself inside, that he couldn't ask about it. In the end, Fan Shang invited the fans who had helped him to go to his Lao Tzu's restaurant for a big meal. Of course, that's all for later.
When Fan Shang returned to the middle-aged uncles, he felt that they had almost drunk enough, so he settled the bill for them and let them go. Finally, don't forget to remind them not to be late for tomorrow's training.
With it already decided to use the substitutes in the match against Paris Saint-Germain, Vincent deliberately brought in Drogba, Sanunno and Lamotte from the youth team. He is going to put these three boys on the field in that game, if Fan Shang's estimate is right, few of the main squad will stay next year, and then these "boy scouts" will come in handy, and now they must be used to the atmosphere of Ligue 1.
Fan Shang's recent training is a set of tactics for the main force and a set of tactics for substitutes. The main force is to deal with Bayern Munich, and the substitutes are to deal with Paris Saint-Germain.
Days without games always go by quickly, and on May 8, Vincent and his coaching staff watched the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup between Paris Saint-Germain and Austria's Vienna Rapids.
Originally, Fan Shang thought that there could be no celebrities in Vienna Express, but when he saw the lineup, he saw a familiar name and a not very familiar look. This person is Vienna's fast striker, German high school striker Jankel, who is the big bald head of Bayern Munich in the future, and finally went to the Celestial Empire to play football for a few days. Now he doesn't look bald, he has a little yellow fluff, which makes his head a bit like a hedgehog on a snowy day. However, the Rapid Vienna no longer has a famous player other than him.
Paris Saint-Germain, on the other hand, can throw Vienna Fast several streets from the lineup alone, Lima, Rais, Loko, Djokaeffe...... These people can be worth more than the whole of Vienna quickly by one estimate.
But the situation on the field is not as disparity as this contrast of strength. After the opening, Vienna played quickly and methodically, attacking and defending, and did not fall behind at all.
Paris Saint-Germain, on the other hand, was a little impatient, just like the soft persimmon that he wanted to pinch was not made, and he was a little angry.
Paris Saint-Germain suffered a heavy blow in the 11th minute, as Rai was tackled behind by a fast defender from Vienna as he broke through with the ball, and was still unable to walk normally after being treated on the sidelines. So the head coach Fernandez can only use the Panamanian player Deli. Valdés replaces Rait.
In the 21st minute, Djokaeff volleyed in the penalty area, and the ball was held up by the goalkeeper.
In the 29th minute, Paris Saint-Germain won a free kick in front of the penalty area 30 meters in front of the penalty area. Djokaeff and centre-back Ngotti stood in front of the ball, and after the whistle Djokaeff flicked it lightly, Ngoti rushed up from behind and fired a powerful shot that hit Vienna's fast goal like a cannonball. 1:0 Paris Saint-Germain leads
After falling behind, Vienna quickly started attacking in full force. Paris Saint-Germain's counter-attacks were even sharper, threatening several times.
In the 38th minute, Panamanian Valdés missed an empty goal.
In the 41st minute, Djokaev was also a step slower, and the ball was first received by Vienna's fast goalkeeper.
Paris Saint-Germain led Rapid Vienna 1-0 in the first half
The second half was still a quick positional battle in Vienna, with Paris Saint-Germain counter-attacking.
In the 49th minute, it was Valdés again, and after the goalkeeper came out without holding the ball, he had another chance to face the empty goal, but his volley hit the defender who was returning to the defense.
In the 56th minute, Djokaef shot after two consecutive shots, and the ball grazed the post and flew off the bottom line.
In the 60th minute, Rapid Vienna finally got their chance, their full-back assisted and crossed, the ball flew to the back post, Paris Saint-Germain was unguarded at the back post, and one of the Vienna Rapid strikers made a fool of himself to put the ball on Lima, who had rushed back to the defense, and bounced off the bottom line.
In the 86th minute, Vienna's fast midfielder gave Jankel a precise through pass, but his speed was limited and was confiscated by the attacking Lima.
In the 90th minute, Vienna quickly sent a free kick, Yankel hit the ball, but Lima quickly saved the ball from the bottom line.
In the second half, Lima played prominently, and 1:0 became the final score. Paris Saint-Germain won the European Cup Winners' Cup in the 95-96 season
