Chapter 186: The Advantage of Youth
Reeves' shot ignited the passion of the Lille team, which was already a strong attacking team, and once the suppressed attack of half the game was released, it was out of control. August 1 Chinese ≈.
Lille took advantage of Real Madrid's retreat to attack Casillas's goal, and Reeves has become the most dangerous player in the eyes of Real Madrid superstars, as long as the ball is at his feet, he can always find an opportunity to threaten the goal.
The Bernabeu fell silent and the first-half liveliness of the fans was completely gone.
Being attacked by others is not the temperament that Real Madrid should have, if it weren't for the fact that the score was still ahead, the white handkerchiefs in the arms of Real Madrid fans would have been ready to take out.
It wasn't just the ordinary fans in the stands who were dissatisfied, there were also voices of dissatisfaction in a VIP box at the Bernabeu.
The Santiago Bernabéu currently has 3o4 rooms at the Bernabeu, 147 at the Camp Nou, 129 at Atletico Madrid and 81 at Athletic Bilbao at the San Mamés. Each private room is equipped with a TV and an entrance to the restaurant, and each room earns about 18.9oo euros per year.
Most of these boxes were reserved by celebrities, and only a few sold tickets before the game. Among them, the most famous boxes are the chairman's box, the royal box and the foreign guest box, the chairman's box is the exclusive box for the president of Real Madrid, the royal box is the exclusive box for the Spanish royal family, and the foreign guest box is the box for foreign dignitaries, and the other is box No. 79, a businessman's box.
This businessman is not an ordinary person, it is the former president of Real Madrid, the creator of the first phase of the Galacticos, Florentino Pérez!
During Florentino's tenure at the helm of Real Madrid, the club successfully repaid the huge debt of 270 million euros left over from the Mendoza and Senz eras, and also surpassed Manchester United to become the number one money-making machine in football by buying balloon stars such as Beckham and Ronaldo. With sufficient funds and the ability to add more top superstars, the concept of "driving competition with economy" has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Under his management, Real Madrid became the first club in the world to earn more than 500 million euros in a season.
But Florentino also had personality flaws, such as being too rigid and self-serving, and even having dictatorial tendencies. Sacchi also complained after his departure that "Florentino interfered too much in the affairs of the athletic level, which was not good for the team." "The generation of the Galactic Fleet created by it was also destroyed by accommodating superstars, serious imbalances in offensive and defensive strategies on the field, and poor results that led to constant chaos in the locker room.
In the winter of 2oo6, the team's declining results caused dissatisfaction among fans, and at the same time, in order to revive the business of his backstage company, ACS Group, Florentino chose to resign as president of Real Madrid, announcing the temporary end of the Florentino era of Real Madrid.
Some people think it would be appropriate to give Florentino the opening words of A Tale of Two Cities, a real estate businessman of a time similar to what Dickens said - for Real Madrid, he was the best and worst man; He is the wisest man and the dumbest of all; He is light and dark; He was heading towards heaven with the Galactic Battleship, but he could also go in the opposite direction.
Leaving Real Madrid's management, Florentino's heart did not leave the Bernabeu, and whenever Real Madrid played at home, the construction businessman would always put down what he was doing and come to Box 79 from the Bernabeu to watch the game.
The Bernabeu was inaugurated in 1947 and Florentino was born in 1947.
After Florentino made his first pot of gold that year, he bought the ownership of Box 79 at the Bernabeu, and even when he became the president of Real Madrid, he mostly watched the game in Box 79, and the chairman's box only set foot when he accompanied the presidents of other teams.
At the moment, Florentino was sitting in box 79.
Watching Real Madrid play ugly football at the Bernabeu, Florentino really wanted to pull Calderón out and beat him up.
In fact, Calderón was a member of Florentino's team, and their relationship began to deteriorate last season when Florentino announced his resignation and appointed Martin as interim president. Last summer, Calderón defeated Mil, a candidate with Florentino's full support, to become president, and relations between the two men deteriorated completely.
And Calderon's methods after coming to power also disgusted Florentino, choosing Capello as the head coach, giving up the contract renewal negotiations with Xiaobei, and forcing Ronaldo away, all of which are demolishing Florentino's stage, completely taking the anti-Real Madrid route. As the president of the greatest club, Real Madrid, Calderón and coach Capello have not only been questioned by the outside world, but also resisted by the team. According to the information revealed to Florentino inside, during Calderon's talks with the player, the player's side made clear its solidarity with Beckham. An attempt to demonstrate to the club through a strike forced Calderón and Capello to unfreeze Becky.
In Florentino's view, Calderon's actions are self-destructive and destroying the Real Madrid he has built.
This is unforgivable.
I'll be back!
Florentino made up her mind.
------------------------
"The second half has been played for 1o minutes, and generally the next 1o minutes are the most goals scored in Lille's usual games. Real Madrid will need to hold on for the next 1o minutes to guarantee a good clean sheet. ”
As soon as Pierre's words fell, Lille attacked again from the middle.
Cabaye pressed Gago down the middle and Redondo II's flustered pass was intercepted by Bodmeier.
Bodmeier sent the ball to the feet of Cannavaro's Reeves in front of the box.
Reeves catches the ball with his back.
In the first ten minutes of the second half, he had already tested Cannavaro's hypocrisy, and there were not many ways to handle the ball in the first half of the counterattack high dribbling state, so that Cannavaro, who reacted quickly and predicted accurately, easily destroyed his counterattack opportunity, and now that it has come down, Reeves has more options to handle the ball, and the success rate of breaking through Cannavaro's defense has increased a lot.
The most effective way to do this is to break through with the body rather than with the technique, and Cannavaro is really old, especially going into the second half, and Reeves felt it clearly after a few confrontations.
It's not the best Cannavaro, there's no doubt about that.
If as a fan, Reeves might have lamented that all the glory of Mr. Golden Ball was left in last summer's World Cup.
But as an opponent, you didn't negotiate.
Cannavaro's defensive skills and experience are indeed masterful, and he has no chance of winning by relying on skill and degree, but at the age of 17 and the opponent is 33, Reeves feels that he has a physical advantage, which has been confirmed in several previous trials.
If you can't fight for experience, if you can't fight for technology, then fight for your body!
Reeves pulled the ball and turned around and at the same time crashed away from Cannavaro, who was trying to intercept, and before Cannavaro tried to steal for the second time, he volleyed directly!
Casillas in front of the door had previous experience and had been waiting for it solemnly,
But it's close, it's fast, and it's angled.
Although Casillas accurately judged the direction and made a save, he still did not touch the ball, fortunately, the ball hit the junction of the crossbar and the post, bounced back, and was hurriedly cleared by Carlos.
"Oh~ the Bernabeu goal denied Reeves' shot again!"
"The best in this game for Real Madrid was the goal of the Bernabeu!"
"In the second half, Reeves's way of playing was very unfamiliar, in the past, Reeves used a combination of skill and degree to handle the ball, and it was rare to see Reeves play with such physical strength, but now it seems to be very effective, Cannavaro can't do anything about it." Dugarry was amazed by Reeves' change.
'But Reeves is clearly not comfortable with this approach, and several times he has missed shots through physical spelling opportunities, and it is not just bad luck to be rejected by the post in a row, it only shows that it is not what he is good at, and it may be self-defeating to force a change. Pierre evaluated Reeves' performance with a critical eye.
"Man, you're wrong, although this method is not what he is good at, but it can't stand the number of times he has tried. I've tried three times now, and with dozens of minutes to go, I'm sure we're going to get a goal. ”
"I'm sure Cannavaro must have a way, it's not the first time he's been in this situation."
"But Mr. Golden Ball is 33 years old, and his physical condition has declined so much since last summer, and if you look at the field and on the bench, no one can share the burden for Cannavaro."
“..........”
Pierre had the heart to refute, but looking at Cannavaro, who was a little embarrassed on the field, and then looking at Pavon and others on the Real Madrid bench, Pierre really didn't have the confidence to boast about Haikou. Because he knows that Real Madrid's offensive line is the world's top configuration, but the strength of the back line can only be regarded as average, and it is extremely unstable, even the La Liga relegation team can pour Real Madrid a few goals at the low level, not to mention that the opponent is a French team in the Ligue 1 list, according to the current situation, it is only a matter of time before Real Madrid concedes a goal.
In the 63rd minute, Reeves made a comeback.
Outside the box, Reeves receives a pass from Cabaye.
Reeves suddenly froze in place and pressed the ball to his feet.
The experienced Cannavaro knew what Reeves was going to do, which was waiting for him to stick on and then use his strong body to knock himself away and burst into the box.
This routine has been played out several times.
Cannavaro didn't stick it up, and stood a few steps away, not intending to give Reeves a chance to fight for his body.
When Reeves saw Cannavaro's movements, he knew the opponent's strategy, and sure enough, it was Mr. Golden Ball, who found a way to deal with it so quickly.
But is it really good to stand so far?
It seems that he looks down on his own long-range shots.
Reeves smiled slightly, and let Mr. Goal taste the fruits of his efforts.
Reeves has a great grasp, and he deliberately practiced long-range shooting in the previous two games, plus half a season of long-range shooting practice, although it has not yet been completed, but the long-range shooting in the unguarded state is already very felt.
Reeves flicked the ball forward, caught up directly with his right foot, and fired a powerful long-range shot.
Cannavaro was a little unimpressed when Reeves volleyed, according to the pre-match analysis, Reeves was not in the box and there was no threat to him, so far, all the balls in Reeves' chances have been completed in the box, except for long-range lobs, which are more fortunate than technical goals.
But when the ball flew off Reeves' feet, Cannavaro didn't feel good, because after years of experience, he decided it was a long-range shot of good quality.
But Cannavaro tried to block it again, but it was too late, and he just raised his foot to his side, and the ball flew past him.
"Long shot!"
Casillas in front of the goal has been weakened by Real Madrid's consistently unreliable defensive line, and when he saw Reeves unguarded, he quickly made a flying save.
It's just that the ball was faster than last time, past Casillas's reaction limit, and in a millimeter it crossed the five fingers of the Real Madrid goalkeeper, flew into the goal, and dragged the net away.
“gooooooooooooooooooooooooaL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Dugarry, who had accumulated the emotions of most of the half, let out a hoarse roar. "It was Reeves who scored the goal!!! Lille finally scored a valuable away goal after a furious attack. ”
"Reeves once again showed us how he was the best, playing with power rather than technique, finishing with a long-range shot rather than a shot from inside the box!"
'I think Reves' behaviour away from the box against Nantes and Toulouse in the league is also explained, Reeves is stocking up on his arsenal for this game. God favors those who are prepared, congratulations to Reeves for scoring his ninth goal in this Champions League. ”
"I also got my bet, I am willing to accept the loss, and I will only wear underwear to explain the next game." Pierre waited for Dugarry's voice to fall and mentioned the gambling game, although he was flattering, he was willing to lose the bet, not to mention that wearing underwear to explain can be used as a gimmick to increase the ratings of the next game, not because he is thick-skinned, but who made him one of the shareholders of BeLnspoRTs, the owner of the French broadcasting rights of the Champions League.
Florentino's face was gloomy and terrible, he got up and stood in front of the window, looking at the coach's seat of Real Madrid, he was already very dissatisfied with Capello, Italy's football philosophy simply does not work in Real Madrid, the Bernabeu is a stage for artistic football, not a utilitarian gladiatorial arena, and even if this ugly football wins the championship, it will not be respected by the fans.
But there is nothing Florentino can do about this situation at the moment, all he can do is wait, wait for the fans to despair for Capello, wait for the fans to despair for Calderón, so that he can come out and pick up the pieces.
Florentino's gaze moved to Reeves again, the lad was a little funny. (To be continued.) )
