Chapter 165: Who's going to buy it
The ball was a half-high ball, and the Juventus players were in a hurry to clear it, and the action was not strong, but the speed was so fast that there was no room for maneuver. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
You Mo didn't make any moves, because the opponent had already completed the action, and if he stretched out his foot to block, he would undoubtedly bring down the opponent and be whistled for a foul. He was like a daredevil, without any protection, just tensed his body, blocking the opponent and the ball.
So after a muffled sound, the Juventus player didn't have time and didn't even think to recycle the foot, and kicked him firmly in the abdomen!
Next, both men stepped back at the same time and staggered a few steps before they stopped.
The ball is gone!
The cheers soon rang out, but You Mo didn't have any strength to celebrate, and just one glance seemed to drain all the spirit.
So he simply sat down, lay down, and curled up into a shrimp.
Cold sweat fell straight down, and the squinting eyes finally closed, and only the mouth that breathed heavily told how hard the previous scene was.
Instantly tense your muscles and block the sharp toes like a stone, and you need to concentrate all the strength in your body to avoid serious injury.
He couldn't afford to get hurt, but he didn't want to retreat, so he pushed his limits and tried to see if he could still be rock solid after running forty meters.
In the end, he succeeded, but for the rest of the game, I am afraid that he will not be able to persevere.
In fact, he can still stand up, rest and rest, and still run, but his family knows his own affairs, and this state is a drag on the whole team for a high-level competition that does not allow any mistakes.
When he sat on a stretcher and went down to the sidelines, he actually waved his hand at the camera and laughed.
Seeing this scene clearly, everyone thought that he was declaring war on those people and proving his irreplaceability in such a way.
There is no substitute for it.
Arsenal can play their opponents like monkeys, but they are never able to put the ball in the net. They are like a group of scholars who have mastered advanced theories, and they have exhausted all kinds of methods in actual combat, but they have never been able to enter the door.
His existence is extremely unusual, like an alien who has come down from the mountains and forests and has just come to the world, with an extremely strong body, a peculiar way of thinking, a strong sense of smell, and a strong instinctive reaction.
He seems to have been born with a knack for scoring goals, and he can complete the task in the most straightforward way possible, no matter what the situation, no matter what the position, no matter whether there is danger or not.
In an era when professional football is becoming more and more stylized and the characteristics of players are gradually moving closer to the team type, his destructive power is unparalleled, and as long as it is used wisely, the ceiling of the team will be very amazing!
"You can still laugh, you scared us to death, do you know!"
Pat Rice was walking along the stretcher, and after seeing the scene clearly, he couldn't help but mutter. "Even if the situation is not so favorable, you don't have to be so careless. The existence of those people is hateful, but it's bound to be a long battle, and you can't take any more risks......."
"Nothing." You Mo closed his eyes and replied weakly, "I just don't want my family to worry." ā
"Uh......" Pat Rice froze and muttered after a moment, "yes, there's nothing more important than family." ā
"Well, go back and call me home." You Mo reluctantly opened his eyes, turned his head to look at the fierce game that was going on, "And the situation here, tell me as soon as possible." ā
"Hahaha......"
Pat Rice burst out laughing, laughter echoing through the tunnel with the players, sounding a little vicissitudes.
"What happens if you get equalized, or if you lose?"
Faced with such a question, You Mo smiled brightly.
"I'll tell them that the challenge has escalated again, and everyone is trying to have a little fun."
.....
Pat Rice's worries are quite justified.
Juventus couldn't accept that a good situation would go down the drain, let alone that their opponents would win the game with such momentum. With a full ten minutes of regular time, they seized the opportunity of Youmo to go down due to injury, and frequently used Trezeguet's air dominance to launch an attack, setting off a bloody storm in the Alicenna penalty area!
Arsene Wenger was not hot-headed at the crucial moments, except for the substitution of Martin Keown, Vieira retreated in time to become a high point in the box. The Arsenal captain did not drop the chain at critical moments, and he used his strong physical fitness to build a steel defense line in front of the goal.
In addition to him, Lehmann's performance is also remarkable. The tenacious nerves of the Germans played a huge role in extremely difficult situations, and on several occasions when they watched the ball roar straight into the door, and everyone could only pray, there was always a pair of giant palms that turned the ball away!
With the duo at the back, Arsenal were able to hold on for a one-goal lead until the final whistle.
After confirming the victory, Arsene Wenger was thrilled.
Although the turmoil of the incident was caused by You Mo's suggestion, as the head coach, it was impossible for him to put the responsibility on his disciples. So when the conflict intensified and the club shareholders scolded him unscrupulously, he chose to remain silent, not wanting to cause additional impact on his disciples.
As a result, he can endure it, and some people can't!
What he didn't expect was that not only could he not bear it, but he actually used a fierce way to make the contradiction public, leaving no room for mediation!
He thought it was hard to see what the consequences would be, but the unwavering support and trust it revealed made him feel uneasy and feel that he was in charge.
The game in front of us is not only a key battle for whether the team can make a historic breakthrough, but also the main battlefield for the challenge of power in a weak direction. You Mo is at the center of public opinion, and under the focus of the spotlight, every move will be infinitely magnified and various conclusions will be drawn.
Thankfully, the guy with a big heart withstood the pressure and helped the team turn the score around with a Predator-like performance.
If the team fails to withstand the pressure at the last minute and turn the win into a draw or even dig a hole for the first leg, then the whole team will be caught in the cycle of last season's end, and the final collapse looks a certainty!
I'm not afraid that the opponent is strong, but I'm afraid that my teammates are too pitiful. It's a perfect phrase in competitive sports where teamwork is required, and when the team is in turmoil, the performance of others is just as important!
It's okay, it's okay......
"See you next round."
Ancelotti's voice rang in his ears, and there was a warmth in the hand that was being held. It's just that the strong confidence in his voice makes him feel a little uncomfortable, and he can't help but widen his eyes and take a closer look at his opponent.
Calm and restrained, even if there is a volcano in his chest, he still has a smile on his face.
This is perhaps the quality he lacks, and there is some irony in his opponents. The good thing is that he is a victor and can face any challenge with his head held high.
"See you next round!"
At the post-match press conference, his team received a lot of praise, but also a lot of worries and doubts. In the face of all kinds of problems, his voice is full of confidence, and there is no lack of humor in his speech, which attracts bursts of laughter.
He didn't like to deal with the media before, and he found that kind of hypocrisy and grievances uncomfortable. Now he understands that the real powerhouses in the competitive world never refuse people thousands of miles away, but those who are pretentious and high-minded can only end up fighting alone, and reap the rewards when they need help.
This is not mutual use, but the law of interests is at work, and looking down on it does not mean how noble you are, but rather shows the weakness in your character!
He has too many expectations on his shoulders, so he can't just live in his ideal country, he needs more thinking and trying to prepare for possible difficulties, instead of passively stumbling in the face of difficulties, or even helpless!
"You feel so different today."
At the end of the press conference, Lyman, who was walking with him, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
The German got his best of the match today, the biggest accolade since joining Arsenal for more than a year. To be able to keep the victory under Juventus's attacking firepower, which can be called the world's top three, the saying that "a good goalkeeper is worth half a team" can be regarded as a boost.
"The same goes for you." Arsene Wenger looked serious, "In addition to the amazing performance, there is also a strong aura that makes people feel down-to-earth." ā
"Don't praise me like that, I'll be embarrassed to ......," Lyman chuckled, "I'm learning from a guy to see how far I can go." ā
After saying that, he didn't forget to add: "Although I will be 30 years old soon, I am still very young compared to you, right?" ā
"Uh......." Wenger coughed dryly, a little helpless in his voice, "Well, 30 years old still has a lot of room for improvement for a goalkeeper." It seems that the MO communicated with you on the field and inspired you? ā
Lehmann nodded and smiled, "I didn't want to play the role of defensive leader all along, I thought it would tie my hands. Now I understand that the so-called leader is not an existence that rarely talks or laughs, but needs to constantly stretch his face to teach others. ā
After a pause, the German's voice became stunned, "If I had met him a few years earlier, maybe I would have surpassed that damn guy by now." ā
Hearing this, Wenger laughed.
"It's not too late!"
ā¦ā¦
The competition ended in such a way that the media naturally needed to write a lot of books to continue the previous hot topic.
Especially the guy at the center of the topic has undoubtedly become the headliner, and the various pursuits are overwhelming.
"Why him again? Because he has a very strong heart! ā
"Another fight victory, a true warrior even if he is not on the field, the spirit is enough to envelop every corner of the court!"
"A great moment, a goal worth a thousand dollars, a moment of glory at Wembley!"
Although the pursuit is not necessarily sincere, including opponents, they have not ignored his role and have given high praise.
Ancelotti's rhetoric is most representative.
ā...... He has a very strong instinct and can always sniff out the pre-danger before anyone else. His style of play may not be unique, but I can't find anyone to compare it to, and maybe there would have been such a player in previous football games. ā
"At that time, there was no perfect youth system, and the training of senior teams was not as detailed as it is now. As a result, the players' personal style is preserved to the maximum, and there are often scenes that look unbelievable during the game. ā
"Professional football has evolved into the age of data, and it seems that it is more intuitive to measure a player, but in fact players can also be distracted by data, gradually lose their intuition and become unimaginative."
"The presence of MO reminds us that football is a game of putting the ball in the opposing goal, and that the process is too complicated to be disorienting."
After evaluating Youmo's performance, there is news about Arsenal's top management that has also been picked up by the media.
Mrs. Bella Smith, a middle-aged woman who is said to be a descendant of the nobility, has a wealthy businessman husband. When Arsenal won the league title in 1991, the couple acquired a 9% stake in the club and became a majority shareholder on the board.
After this incident broke out, Mrs. Smith was embarrassed and thrown into her grandmother's house.
Not only did the media fans criticize her, but the other shareholders of the club also turned their faces and denied people, eager to put the black pot of last season's collapse on her back!
In this case, it is not a wise choice to hold on to equity.
Although she can still continue to be a majority shareholder in a legal sense, it is clear that her opinion will no longer be taken into account in all matters of the club. Other major shareholders will even poach everywhere to force her out of the game, to give some people the opportunity to clear their name.
So getting out of the game has become a sure thing, but the equity transfer has become a hot potato.
Everyone knows that Arsenal are now in debt, and the club's plans for a new stadium are at risk. If the team can't continue to win the rest of the game, the shares that have been spent a lot of money are likely to be in danger of devaluation!
Especially when the most valuable guy in the team openly rebelled, and the club's top management faced violent shocks, the timing of the takeover was really unsatisfactory.
Even more exaggerated, the risk of bankruptcy is not an imaginary alarmist!
How difficult it is to continue to soar can be concluded with a little analysis.
Five days after the end of this hard-fought game, the battle with Manchester United at the top of the table will kick off, and the two teams are currently separated by only one point, which seems to be suspenseful enough, in fact, from the analysis of the depth of the squad, the situation facing Arsenal is not optimistic.
Then there is the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals in two weeks' time.
How strong Juventus are can be seen from the last ten minutes of the game, and if they play at home, Arsenal's one-goal lead is really hard to reassure. What's more, they have an away goal, and if they end the second leg 1:0, they will advance to the semi-finals!
In this way, it is difficult to say that the collapse of last season will not be repeated!
In fact, the transfer of tens of millions of pounds is not a trivial matter, and it is not impossible to delay until it is confirmed that the team is still competitive in various championships, but the price may change.
Of course, for Mrs. Smith, the mood can become very tangled at this time.
The team wins, the shares in their hands are bullish, but their hearts are becoming more and more unhappy. When the team loses, the mood is happy, and the stock will fall to a mess.
In this case, it is better to throw it out early, out of sight and out of mind!
But who wants to spend a lot of money to buy her shares in a risky situation? (To be continued.) )
