Chapter 113: Counterattack
Bordeaux's counter-attack continued under the leadership of Lamotte, until the 72nd minute, after missing a couple of chances, Wiltord picked up Nedved's long-range shot in the box, which was lifted by the goalkeeper but not far and sent into the bottom of the net with ease. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
At 1:2, Bordeaux finally pulled back a city and reopened the door to promotion that had been slowly closed just now.
On the other hand, Valencia, after Menjetta was frozen and the cooperation of other players was a little sluggish, they completely lost the majestic momentum of the first half, and after this goal, they fell directly to the bottom.
After the kick-off again, the formation was already scattered, Aragonés shouted on the sidelines, and the substitutions did not arouse Valencia's fighting spirit again.
In the 86th minute, Valencia fouled at the edge of the penalty area, and after Chilavert came up, he shot with his left foot, and the ball rubbed against the wall, changed direction, and then bounced into the goal.
2:2 Bordeaux equalized the score in the last minute. At the end of the first half, there was a bit of a bowed head and the home fans completely erupted, and the cheers on the field were uncontrollable.
Even Theo in the VIP room got up from his seat, he originally thought that there was no hope, but he never expected Bordeaux to come back to life in the second half, not only pulling himself back from the edge of the cliff, but also pushing Valencia down. Although Fan Shang's reluctance to let him meddle in the team made Tai O a little uncomfortable, as long as Fan Shang could win all the way, Tai Ao decided to endure it in his heart.
Chilavert was excited after scoring the goal, roaring and roaring in front of Vincent, completely spitting out the frustration of his last defeat in Europe. He has proved with six league games without conceding a goal and two European goals that Zaragoza has definitely looked away before, and he has absolutely no problems, whether it is strength or temperament.
In fact, it was also Vincent's tolerant policy towards Chilavert that created the current Chilavet. Chilavert is a standard South American, enthusiastic, yearning for freedom, and has his own insistence, Fan Shang's principle for him is to do whatever he wants, as long as he is above Fan Shang's bottom line, whatever, if Fan Shang's bottom line is broken, then I'm sorry, I'm ready to roll up and leave. Chilavert is also very reliable, you just give him a certain amount of freedom, he doesn't ask for too much. What is most fortunate for Vincent is that Chilavet's French is too ordinary, and he has not yet dealt with the media.
At the end of the 2:2 game, although Fan Shang kept signaling the players to press, the score did not change. Bordeaux eliminated Valencia 4-2 on aggregate to advance to the next round. Who the opponent is, we have to wait for the draw.
After this game, Aragonés took the initiative to shake hands with Vincent, and last time he refused because he thought that Vincent wanted to abolish Menjeta, but this time Lamotte was completely Menjieta's nemesis, and he didn't have to deliberately make a move. Aragonés lost to Yang Mou this time, and he had nothing to be dissatisfied with, so he came to find Fan Shang.
"Congratulations"
"Thank you, Monsieur Aragonés"
"Call me Luiz, your on-field performance is good, your players are good"
"Thank you, Louis, I still have to learn from you, if we have the chance, we can get a bottle of red wine and sit and talk"
"Okay, very willing"
This is the harmonious dialogue between the two, Fan Shang is a person who doesn't offend me, I don't offend anyone, if the other party scolds him or says something unpleasant, then not only will he be scolded back, but he will also have to go up and kick twice.
"I'm very happy with your second half, I'm not happy with your first half, so," Vincent said to the players in the dressing room, "all in all, you guys were average, and I was average, but congratulations to us all for qualifying and taking a step towards the title." ”
Fan Shangyou briefly summed it up, that is, he announced that he would have a holiday tomorrow and start preparing for the weekend league the day after tomorrow. Hope to continue their unbeaten run in the league. Bordeaux is unbeaten in eight games this season, including this one, with six wins and two draws. Many media outlets have already named Bordeaux a serious contender for the league and UEFA Cup titles.
Bordeaux's opponent in the seventh round of the league at home is Lille, and the current Lille is not as strong as Lille who will have Hazard in the future, and the current Lille is completely a league weak, with a deputy squad leader and an assistant deputy squad leader with Nice.
Bordeaux now always plays lightly against the weak team, and a set of defensive counterattacks actually allowed Bordeaux to score three goals, and the score of 3:0 also shows the difference in strength between the two sides.
After seven rounds, Bordeaux is at the top of the standings, with six wins and one draw with 19 points, six points ahead of Lens, who now occupy second place, and seven points ahead of Monaco in third place.
This kind of unbeatable ride is absolutely rare in the history of Ligue 1, and the whole of France is waiting to see who can break Bordeaux's unbeaten golden body.
Meanwhile, Bordeaux's next round of the UEFA Cup is on the horizon, with Czech giants Slavia Prague being the next obstacle in Bordeaux's quest to defend their title, this time again away and then at home, with the two teams playing their first round in Prague in mid-October.
In fact, Bordeaux's schedule at this stage seems to be relatively tight, but the opponents are strong and weak, and there are consecutive home games, plus Fan Shang's rotation, so the dense schedule has not brought much ups and downs to the state of Bordeaux players. After the home win over Lille, they continued to play at home against Guingamp.
Guingamp was an underdog until last season, when they finished 10th in Ligue 1 and entered European competition. Guingamp had a very ambitious season and made it out of the Toto Cup to reach the main draw of the UEFA Cup. It's a pity that I was a little lucky, I met Inter Milan in the first round, and I didn't resist at all, and I was kicked out of the European arena by Inter Milan.
Guingamp and Bordeaux also represented France in the UEFA Cup, one against a strong team and the other by a strong team. Guingamp was very unconvinced of Bordeaux, although Bordeaux was the champion of the League Cup last year, but most people felt that the Bordeaux championship was a fluke, and Fan Shang won it with some unsatisfactory measurements.
After the start of the game, Fan Shang clearly felt that Gangang was not here to compete, but to wrestle.
Twenty minutes before the game, the Bordeaux players were either pushed or tackled, and if they couldn't be pushed and couldn't be tackled, they fell.
"You TM saw it too, is this here to play football?" I don't know how many times Fan Shang roared around the fourth official. The Guingamp player blatantly made a sliding tackle in front of the fourth official's eyes in the midfield, throwing Nedved off the touchline with the ball.
When the referee ran here to let the Bordeaux player send a free kick, the fourth official went up and said a few words to the referee, and the referee nodded and showed a yellow card to the Guingamp player who had just fouled.
The Guingamp players were really tough in this game, although they got a yellow card, but their actions were still not restrained. continued to display his martial arts, and directly regarded the Bordeaux players as wooden men who practiced their skills.
After the end of the first half, the score of the two teams was still 0:0. Fan Shang felt that since Gangang was doing this, we couldn't fall behind, so Fan Shang replaced him in the second half, Drogba, Distin and Lamotte, three monsters who insisted on exercising in the gym every day.
Fan Shang didn't make too many arrangements, so he said a few words, "You also saw what they did to us in the first half" Fan Shang said to the three of them, "Give it back to me, don't be afraid to eat cards, they also took three yellow cards in the first half, you can watch it." ”
At the beginning of the second half, Bordeaux, under the leadership of the three of them, sounded the horn of counterattack, and the signal was that Lamotte hit the opponent on the side three times in a row, and the most powerful thing was that the three times were all reasonable collisions, Guingamp was directly dumb and ate coptis, and let their coach jump up and down on the sidelines, but it did not change the referee's mind.
Fan Shang looked at Guingamp coach Smerecki's expression and state at this time, and Fan Shang finally felt comfortable in his heart in the first half. "Tell you to play those three indiscriminate, let's play these ancestors, Bayern, Valencia and AC Milan are all defeated in my hands, you still want to yin me?"
