"This young man is really good. ++”
"yes. There should be a lot of pressure before the controversy. It's really rare for him to be able to have such a wonderful performance. ”
Senes. Erjie nodded, and then said proudly: "This is a student who graduated from the international referee training course I hosted, and he can be regarded as my student." Angel, how is it, have you ever envied. ”
"Sennes, stop bragging."
Angel. Villar laughed and scolded Senes. Elger. Angel. Villar is the boss of the world referee and the chief referee of FIFA. And Senes. Erger is the vice-president of the FIFA referees committee.
One of them is from Spain and the other is from Turkey.
FIFA is a place where the forces of the various parties are entangled. However, the AFC and CAFA are not very high in FIFA because of their weak football strength. Of course, in the same way, because of the large number of countries, they are a force to be reckoned with in FIFA.
The AFC and the African Football Confederation, the two football confederations, want to be the boss of FIFA themselves, but they are not strong enough. But if any FIFA boss does not have the support of these two football associations, it is not so easy to sit in a stable position.
After all, the current world football is dominated by Europe and South America.
Therefore, the current power faction in FIFA also has a relationship with these two places. Either people from European football, or people from South American football, especially Brazil.
At present, FIFA Blatter's initiative is to use South American football as a backyard to appease the AFC and African Football Confederation. Go all out against UEFA. So as two people who are also from Europe, Angel. Villar and Sennes. Elger has a good personal relationship.
In the FIFA Referees Committee. In addition to their two powerful factions, another powerful person is Teixeira, the president of the Brazilian Football Federation. Teixeira is also a lawyer-turned-lawyer.
Teixeira is strong. He is the son-in-law of former FIFA President Havelange. Originally, he was also one of the biggest candidates for FIFA president, but it is a pity that Blatter, who seemed to be an excesses at first, has super strong wrists, but he has firmly sat in the position of FIFA president.
Blatter also suppressed Teixeira a little, but even then Teixeira is the strongest person in FIFA. Villar and Sennes. The two of Erger, if they want to fight Teixeira on the referee committee, of course, they need to cooperate sincerely.
"Senes, you know exactly what that international referee training course you organized. Isn't it just. Jack. Referee Lee is a veteran referee in England. Taylor's disciple. ”
"No matter how much it has no gold content. It was also an international referee training course. ”
"Huh."
"Why, Angel. Are you trying to promote him? ”
Senes. Elger knows Jack, and Jack is the youngest international referee in world football. But he only paid attention to Jack, who was still very young.
Senes. With Elger's status, the referees who pay the most attention to are excellent referees in their thirties.
Excellent referees at this age are the referees that FIFA should vigorously cultivate. But now look at Angel. Villar's appearance, he seems to be interested in Jack.
"There is this idea. I think he should be given the opportunity to officiate in the Champions League next season. Maybe two years later, he will have the opportunity to officiate at the European Championships. ”
"Isn't he on the World Cup shortlist? Why not give him a chance. ”
"Nope."
Angel. Villar shook his head, then frowned and said, "Joseph is among the referees in this World Cup. Choosing too many referees from small and weak football countries will already cause a lot of problems. So there is a need for some veteran referees. Jack is too young to qualify for the World Cup. ”
Villar, as the head of the FIFA referee committee, is very unhappy with Blatter's move. Blatter in particular is in this World Cup. The desire to reuse referees from small and weak football countries annoys Villar even more. In Villar's mind, the World Cup referee must be the highest level in the world. Instead of bringing in a lot of low-level referees for the sake of balance.
But he couldn't help but follow Blatter's words. Because he understands. Blatter is trying to win over Asian and African football confederations. It's not just about choosing a referee for the World Cup.
"Yes. England already has a Ball referee and a Gallagher referee, and it can't be Jack's turn. Referee Lee officiates the World Cup. ”
"Yes. That's it. I just watched Jack be very good, and he didn't have to be a Corina in the future. ”
"You're exalting him too much, aren't you?"
Senes. Elger looked at Villar with a puzzled expression. Because in Senes. In Elger's opinion, Jack is very good. But it's not so good that Villar is so elevated.
Villar shook his head, smiling and not speaking.
Corina?
Maybe this kid is even better than Collina. Collina is currently the most famous and best referee in world football, but what did he do when he was twenty-six or twenty-seven?
It is also enforced in the Italian third division, which is the third and fourth division in England.
But what about this Jack in front of you?
is already enforcing the law in the Premier League, and has already obtained the qualification of international referee. How can such a referee who has officiated a heavyweight match like the north London derby in the Premier League, or even the final of the League Cup, simply say that the future is bright.
By the time Jack was 30 years old, Villar estimated that Jack had already officiated in the knockout rounds of the Champions League. Therefore, after the age of thirty, who can compare with him.
"You're going to keep watching?"
"Of course. I've never been in the habit of watching half of a game. ”
…………
Jack on the scene didn't know that in front of the TV in the distance, there were Villar and Senes. A giant of the FIFA referee committee like Elger watches the game. And they're also praising Jack for his law enforcement.
Of course, even if he knew, it was not as important to Jack as the live game. Getting this game done smoothly is Jack's only goal now. It is also the most important opinion of Jack.
The game was quite a disadvantage for Tottenham.
Tottenham are not without chances, though. No matter how you say Tottenham's strength is far higher than Blackburn, Tottenham is the top few in the Premier League in terms of strength. As long as they calm down, there are still plenty of opportunities. Sure enough, at the twelfth minute of the second half, Tottenham once again had a good chance.
Poyet and Sheringham in midfield combined to come up with a one-two kicking wall.
It's wonderful.
With a simple one-on-two, Poyet immediately broke through the entire Blackburn backline. Blackburn's backline didn't do well in this game, having been breached by Tottenham several times. This time, after Poyet's breakthrough, it immediately became a one-on-one opportunity.
But when Poyet faced Blackburn goalkeeper Friedel alone, it turned out to be Ferdinand's possession in the first half. One kick hit the ball over the crossbar.
Tottenham's second crossbar of the game, the crossbar once again denied Tottenham. First the goalposts, then the beams, and the third time, the beams.
Such a thing is very demoralizing. One can be said to be an accident, twice can be said to be bad luck, and of course by the third time everyone has nothing to say. Some may even think that it is God's arrangement.
No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't win. How can man overcome God? It's not the idea of one person or two, it's the idea of the whole team. Tottenham's shots were always problematic and Blackburn's two shit dribbles went in.
The stark contrast has to be thought of elsewhere.
When such an idea came out, it was a huge blow to Tottenham's morale. Tottenham have no problem with a few veterans, and they are also experienced in what they say. But Tottenham also have some young players who think differently.
Souness spotted on the sidelines and spotted Tottenham's chaos.
Souness immediately began to set up. Souness brought on Jordi and Hignat for striker Jensen and midfielder Gillespie. Souness is defending, anyway, a two-goal lead, plus Tottenham's morale is not high now, as long as he holds on until the end of the game.
Compared to Souness, Hoddle performed poorly in this game.
When the players were all overwhelmed, Hoddle didn't help as a coach. Hoddle sat on the sidelines in a daze, as if he had been abandoned. Originally, the morale of Tottenham players is not high now, and Hoddle is in this state again, how can Tottenham beat Blackburn.
Souness's purpose is clear, it's to defend.
The rest of the game is defense.
The strategy was successful, not your average success. Tottenham want to fight back, but they don't have a backbone in their squad right now. None of them have a unified idea.
As a result, Tottenham's attack was not at all threatening.
In the final moments of the game, Tottenham was the most typical thunder and rain. The offense looks hilarious, but it doesn't have a little bit of gold. Like a headless fly, he kept passing the ball into the Blackburn penalty area. But the passing was too blind to threaten Blackburn's goal.
Jack looked at the time and saw that it was time to end, but Tottenham still couldn't do anything.
"Doodoo-"
Finally, when the time came, Jack blew the whistle for the end of the game. Jack was happier in his heart. Because this game was relatively smooth, except for Ferdinand's offside and some controversy when the judgment was made.
And that controversy, Jack is also absolutely sure. Offside is offside, only praise after the game, no criticism. Thinking about it like this, Jack was still very happy, and finally successfully completed the first final of his refereeing career.
"The referee blew the whistle for the end of the game. Blackburn Rovers beat Tottenham 2-0 to secure the Carabao Cup this season. Completely different from everyone's pre-match speculation, it turned out to be a victory for Blackburn, who had few chances in the whole game. (To be continued......) u
