Chapter Forty-Eight: A Little Trick

Tyo called Vincent to his office again, "Don't care about the media stuff, it's all nonsense. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Fan Shang nodded

"Our club has your back, you just have to do your job with peace of mind, and don't worry about the rest. At least until Mr. Affleroux sells his shares, you are certainly the head coach of Bordeaux. We are all very happy with you. Téo gave Vincent a reassurance.

"Got it, Louie, I'll keep trying," Fan Shang replied simply

Tyo looked at Fan Shang's state, Fan Shang's brows were tightly locked, and his eyes were sometimes rolling, sometimes staring at one place. "Fan Shang, relax, don't be too nervous. The League Cup is not so important, it is still to focus on the league. Theo comforted Vincent and hoped he would not be overwhelmed by the match against AC Milan.

"I know, I'll leave first if it's okay" Fan Shang got up and walked out of the office

Tai O watched Fan Shang walk out, "I'm still too young, and my ability to resist pressure is too poor." ”

On March 19, at 19:30 p.m., the match between Bordeaux and AC Milan begins. Less than six o'clock in the afternoon, the Bordeaux bus arrived at the playing field. After a week of muddy form, Vincent finally welcomed AC Milan again.

Bordeaux will need to have at least a two-goal advantage in this game and will not be able to allow AC Milan to score, and if AC Milan score, Bordeaux will need to score at least four goals to advance.

During the pre-game warm-up, Fan Shang still looked like he was going to die. He looked at the arena with his eyes wandering, sometimes touching his chin, sometimes pinching his forehead.

When he returned to the locker room again, Fan Shang stopped in front of the door, he closed his eyes and covered his face with his hands, and made a fierce gesture to wipe his face. Then when he opened his eyes again, the confusion and hesitation of the week disappeared without a trace, replaced by firmness and unquestionability. Fan Shang stomped his feet a few times, straightened his clothes, coughed a few times, then opened the door and strode into the locker room.

"Attention!" As soon as he entered the door, Fan Shang shouted. The players below were all stunned, only Lizarazu and Tagang didn't react much, and the others all looked at Fan Shang with strange eyes. A couple of coaches were very calm, they knew everything.

Just before the Caen game, Vincent gathered the coaches together and told them that he was going to be an actor. In the surprised eyes of the coaches, Vincent explained that he wanted to put on a play for everyone, and he wanted to make outsiders feel that he had been crushed, and Bordeaux could only continue his rigid line of thought after Vincent was crushed. And the match against Caen Rohr and Battistone commanded the game is also what Vincent meant, and this Bordeaux game that lasted 120 minutes is to prove to the outside world that Rohr and Battistone will only continue Vincent's coaching philosophy and defend with all their might.

Vincent did succeed, he deceived everyone at the cost of this year's French Cup, even his own players. Vincent is now back to his old form, and the players' originally depressed mood has risen and fallen, and they see hope.

Lizarazu and Dogan were the questions that Fan Shang had approached them to study the captain's problem the previous day, and Dogan's nervous expression in the last game made Fan Shang a little dissatisfied with his leadership, and Lizarazu shouted a few times in the last game to make Fan Shang a little happy. Vincent wanted Dogan to hand over the captaincy to Lizarazu. Although Tagang was a little reluctant, he still did it, and Fan Shang finally left Tagang to chat for a long time, and finally Tagang just bowed his head and walked out of Fan Shang's office. So Lizarazu and Tagang knew that Fan Shang was pretending, and he was very clear-headed.

"Don't be surprised, you just know that your manager is fine." Fan Shang said calmly, "I've done everything I can do, and you've read the starting list, do you know what to do?" ”

The players already knew that Fan Shang had acted for everyone for a week, and they all nodded after listening to Fan Shang's words.

"Zizou, Richard, you two are very important today, I need you to keep changing positions, keep crossing, and mess up the Milan defence. Christopher and Dee Dee are the same, pulling more and disrupting the defense. We only have a chance if we mess up their defenses. "Today is control and attack, and I have to rush out at the beginning, I believe Milan will be surprised." Vicent: You remind the defensive line of the position when you are defending. ”

Fan Shang looked at the players again, "You don't have to think too much, just do your best, I don't think you are worse than Milan, right?" ”

People don't like to be said to be worse than anyone, and Fan Shang, the players below the comparison, quit. More radical people like Lizarazu began to deny it loudly, and said that they would work the field. People like Zidane, who are calmer, are just clenching their fists and gritting their teeth. But that's how Fan Shang is also satisfied, this is already considered to be a fighting spirit.

"Alright, let's play, I hope we can get on the bus with a smile." Fan Shang clapped his hands and motioned for the players to come out.

Bordeaux and AC Milan took to the pitch to the cheers of the fans. Although Bordeaux's Parc Recourt stadium does not have the grandeur of Milan's San Siro, the arrival of tens of thousands of Bordeaux fans still sets off the atmosphere of Bordeaux's home stadium.

AC Milan's starting line-up today is different from the previous game. The goalkeeper is Ilpo, the four defenders are, Maldini, Baresi, Costacuta and Panucci, the two midfielders are still Vieira and Desailly, the three in front of them are Elaño, Baggio and Donadoni, who did not appear in the previous game, and the striker is Libyan George Weah. This is still Capello's effective 451, the same lineup that Vincent often ranks in the league. Five subs: Rossi, Tasottti, Albertini, Locatelli and Di Canio.

Savic Vic, who performed well in the previous game, will not play for this game due to injury, while Georges Weah will pose a great threat to Bordeaux's defence.

Bordeaux's starting XI also changed, first from the formation to 442. The goalkeeper is the same as Yuar, the back line is Lizarazu, Dogan, Hansen and Toyes, the two midfielders are Dudiel and Lucas, Zidane is the right midfielder, Witzger is the left midfielder, and the two forwards are Dugari and Taurott. On the bench were Fontaine, Gernay, Fisher, Bancarel and Coussy.

Looking at Bordeaux's starting list, Capello also frowned, he originally thought that Fan Shang would line up with the same formation as him today. He felt a sense of unease in his heart that he couldn't grasp.

From the start, Bordeaux launched an onslaught into the heart of AC Milan, and Milan did not defend it.

In the opening 3 minutes, Maldini made a long pass from the back to find Weah, and after Weah stopped the ball, there was no defender in front of him, but he was just about to dribble the ball when he heard the referee's whistle and he was offside.
