Chapter 416: Mentality
readx;
On the second day, Steven. Gerald's name. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Normally, these media wouldn't say much about Liverpool because they felt that Liverpool were definitely the losing side, which was simply unnecessary.
But this time it was different, Gerrard's attitude at the press conference made them think that Liverpool came with the attitude of losing, which made these media feel that Liverpool was not motivated, so the media criticized Gerrard and Liverpool's attitude towards the game.
In fact, if Liverpool don't say anything, or advertise that they are here with the intention of winning, or show a serious attitude towards the game, then the media will think that they are too proud - to beat Chelsea, in vain?
And now, they show this attitude, and the media say - really unmotivated, no wonder they will lose!
In short, as a weakling, Liverpool did not gain the sympathy of the crowd and did everything wrong, and this is the reality of the football world.
With only one day to go until the game, both teams have already reported what they should have reported, and there is not much to say at all, so Gerrard's attitude has caused a lot of hype in the media.
Have Liverpool really lost confidence?
Are they setting off smoke bombs?
What's the point of doing that, or is Gerrard already thinking about leaving Liverpool in the summer?
In short, many media have written about the 'Gerald incident', and all kinds of strange opinions, opinions, and speculations have been frequently exposed, and it is estimated that all kinds of strange conjectures around the world are added together, and there are no more ideas from these media, and it is even stranger, if they are not journalists, they may also have a future if they come to the ancient oriental country to be a fantasy master.
Most of the media in London put on a face like this, they feel that Liverpool should have lost, their attitude is taken for granted, facing the world's No. 1 team, losing is inevitable, prepare mentally in advance, and it will be easier to accept after the game.
A quote from the Fulham Post is 'Benitez is ready for next season'.
Many media think that Liverpool is setting off smoke bombs, and they have already reached the Champions League final, regardless of luck or strength, which team will not want to win the championship when it comes to this level?
You know, that's the Champions League, the highest honor for European clubs!!
Among them, the most imaginative and ironic is the media of the ancient Orient.
Don't look at these media, the media in the ancient Oriental countries are the most famous, but their news is the best-selling, and the reason why they are not famous is that most of them only sell in the ancient Oriental countries, but they are completely out of touch with the European market.
For these ancient oriental media, every time they report on their own players, they will always send all kinds of instructions, resulting in more than half of the reports being untrue, and there are also Shenma keyword blocking, review by various departments, in short, if you want to report the news of your country, you must be cautious.
However, foreign sports news, even if it is a sensation, this appearance is not good, always reporting foreign news, and it is likely to be put on a 'foreign flattery' hat, in short, it is not easy to be a reporter and open a newspaper and website!
However, this time is different, Chelsea are foreign clubs, and domestic fans also like to listen to Wang Li's reports.
For Wang Li, no matter how it is reported, the upper class will have an indifferent attitude, after all, even if half of the Chinese blood, Wang Li is also an Englishman, and has nothing to do with their interests.
As a result, a series of strange conjectures have been introduced in response to the 'Gerrard incident', among which the most popular among fans is 'Liverpool's fear of Wang Li has led to the loss of morale of the whole team'.
In this report, the reporter who sent the press said reasonably: "In this season's match with Chelsea, Liverpool has three home and away games and three defeats, in these three games, Wang Li alone scored six goals, three consecutive braces, with this goal efficiency, he will still score two goals in this game, how important is a goal in the Champions Cup final?" Two goals, that's almost a death sentence for Liverpool!! ”
This report has a very high number of clicks on the bridal sports website, and fans of the ancient oriental country think that it is very possible, after all, Wang Li's goal is real, not blown by the media.
However, this is also rarely related to Liverpool fans in the ancient countries of the East.
In the ancient countries of the East, due to the media's promotion of foreign teams, as well as the issue of the broadcasting rights of various TV sports programs in Europe, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Manchester United, Real Madrid, these four teams have the most fans, although Liverpool is an old aristocratic team, but its performance after the 90s is not good, except for those traditional fans, the average new fans will not like a team that does not perform well.
Although the reports were mixed, it did not interfere with the training of the Chelsea team, and the media said that Liverpool had lost the confidence of the game, but Mourinho did not believe it at all, and instead demanded more from the training of his players.
This kind of strictness does not mean that the intensity of the team's training is strengthened, but it is a kind of attitude strictness, and he asks the players to concentrate when training, treat training as a game, and devote themselves to it, so that the training effect is the best.
However, although the players did not dare to talk freely in front of the manager during training, when it was time to rest, they got together in twos and threes and started talking about the latest topics.
Today's topic is, of course, Gerrard, and the focus of media criticism is Liverpool.
"Have they really lost confidence? Are they scared? "Joe. Cole said casually. "Joe, don't take it lightly, I believe Steven is by no means that kind of person, his fighting spirit is very strong, especially when facing opponents who are stronger than himself, he can always show that strong fighting spirit, his game, almost every game is playing at full strength." Lampard said with a look of trust.
"But he did say that, was it a smoke bomb?" Damien. Duff.
"This is obvious psychological warfare, there is no need to pay attention to it, they just want us to underestimate the enemy." John. Terry got it right with a word.
The players next to them thought about it and found that it was the most likely surname of psychological warfare.
Any team or player who can make it to the UEFA Champions League final, even if they think their team has a small chance of winning, will definitely fight for it, and it is impossible to put on such a face of 'we are here to learn', which will only lower the morale of their team. However, do you want to let them underestimate the enemy and get a chance? It's impossible.
That's what most players think.
Of course, there are also those who don't like to use their brains, such as the Dutch kid Altyn. Robben: "Whatever! No matter what, as long as we play seriously, it doesn't matter what smoke bombs they are, it doesn't matter, we play seriously, we win the game, we get the trophy, it doesn't matter what they do. ”
"Hahahaha, Kim, when will you understand the truth?" Damien. Duff.
Wang Li smiled and said, "Altyn is right, as long as we fight seriously, we will definitely win." Our strength is stronger than theirs, as long as we play seriously, no matter what strategy they use, it is impossible for them to succeed! ”
During the lunch break, everyone's discussion was very lively, but after Wang Li said that sentence, he didn't participate in it anymore.
Although he now knows that he should put all his energy into the game, there are indeed a lot of annoying things recently, and he can't help but think about it without studying on his own, first of all, the summer transfer.
The recent transfer application for Real Madrid is not a media fabrication, but there is a fact, not only Rita, but even he was privately asked by a scout of Real Madrid, but in the rules of European football, private contact with players is not allowed, and Wang Li is also very disgusted with disturbing his private life, so after only a meeting, he put aside the sentence 'talk to my agent' and drove home directly.
For the Real Madrid team, it is impossible to say that Wang Li is not tempted, in any case, there are many football superstars, although he is confident that he is much better than any of them, but players who can become superstars must have something extraordinary, Wang Li feels that if he goes there, he can learn more.
Chelsea aren't bad, though, are they? Why the transfer?
Here, he can get a lot of salary, and he has a lot of friends, here, he is the absolute main force, he doesn't have to adapt to anything at all, everything revolves around him.
In addition, there is Wang Li's personal love life problem, Angela and Rita, in the choice of these two women, the balance in Wang Li's heart has always been inclined to Angela, which is related to age, but also related to his personal feelings, for Angela, he is more out of a kind of love, and for Rita is out of a kind of **.
However, he didn't want to give up Rita, this is where the tangle lies, as a normal man, how can he bear to say no to a woman who just wants to be secret? Unless the woman is nasty, at least not Rita.
Also, where exactly are you going this summer? Why don't you go back to the ancient country of the East and go around to see his basketball team?
Also, last year, I could only watch the draw for the Champions League on TV, and I might be able to participate in the draw ceremony in a few months, after all, the draw for the Champions League is also an award ceremony, and with my own performance, it is no problem to win the award of European Footballer of the Year.
In the midst of these thoughts, Wang Li fell into deep thought, and in the midst of discussions with many of his team-mates, he actually fell asleep directly, until Frank Lampard pushed him and told him to go to lunch with him, and he woke up sleepy-eyed.
At this time, Wang Li knew in his heart that the journey of a season did make him a little tired: "After playing this game, I can rest for 2 months, which feels really good." ”
He was looking forward to the holidays now, at least during the holidays, he would not be restrained and would not have so many worries
In Turkey, many famous buildings are named after "Ataturk", such as Turkey's largest airport and museums, all of which are called "Ataturk".
In Turkish, "Ata" means "father" and "Ataturk" means "father of Turkey".
The origin of the Ataturk Stadium is in honor of Kemal, the founding father of Turkey.
Kemal was the first president of the Republic of Turkey, in November 1934, Turkey implemented the surname law, the Grand National Assembly in recognition of Kemal's merits, awarded him the surname "Ataturk", in order to show respect for Kemal, Turks generally only use Ataturk to call Kemal.
After his death on November 20, 1938, Kemal's body was buried on the hill of Lhasatepe in the Maltepe district of Ankara city, which is one of the commanding heights of Ankara. Standing on the right side of the entrance to the mausoleum, the tower of Fort Reading is engraved with his famous quote - "To survive means to fight and to fight, and only when the struggle is successful can survival be possible." ”
These words still inspire the Turks, who express their admiration for the martyrs by naming their buildings.
Although the Ataturk Stadium may seem very old from a historical point of view, in fact, even in the world, the equipment and facilities of this stadium can rank among the top few in terms of technology, and its appearance is very modern, and the design of the wings of the grandstands on both sides makes the stadium look extremely beautiful and luxurious.
Of course, none of this is critical.
What made the players of the two teams who had just walked into the stadium and adapted to the venue before the game the most uncomfortable was the dense fans in the stands of the stadium.
Although there are few rookies among the players on both teams, and the stadium is only 80,000 people, which is still worse than the Camp Nou, the design of this stadium makes the players feel that the fans in the stands can clearly and condescendingly see their every move, even if they are used to being the focus, but at the same time, they will feel a little heartbeat faster when they are looked at by 80,000 people.
'No wonder the boss got used to the venue so early. Thomas thought to himself.
In the first team, he is only older than Wang Li, but he is the least experienced in the tournament, and although Mourinho has told them in detail about the design of the stadium before the game, he is still a little nervous.
"Don't go out of your way." Wang Li said with some concern.
He's not nervous, but Thomas is the team's goalkeeper, and if he doesn't play properly, Chelsea's chances of losing are too great, after all, the goalkeeper position is too important.
Thomas looked at the fans around him again, shrunk his neck a little nervously, and then reacted, pouted and pretended not to care, and said, "Take care of yourself." ”
Wang Li held back a smile, shook his head and didn't say anything, and kicked the ball hard towards the goal, and the football almost wiped Thomas's scalp and flew into the net.
"Oh my God, are you going to murder?" Thomas reacted and shouted.
"Haha, Thomas, you're nervous, I'm just here to prove it."
"I didn't!"
The Champions League final, especially the Champions League final in Turkey, not to mention Thomas, who is playing in the tournament for the first time, is also more or less nervous with the rest of the players on both teams.
Wang Li also feels this way, but he will understand this as excitement!
Very excited!
Facing the most important game since he participated in professional football, Wang Li felt that his blood was boiling.
As long as the game goes well and wins, then he can win the Champions League medal that ordinary players can't even think of, and it's a really exciting game.
After staying on the pitch for more than half an hour, the players of both teams returned to the locker room, changed their clothes, and waited for the time to pass slowly and prepare to play for the official game.
At this time, the head coaches of both teams also attended the pre-match press conference and returned to the dressing room to make the final tactical deployment.
However, at least for Chelsea, the various tactics before the game, the corresponding arrangement, the tasks of each player, etc., these things have already been arranged by Mourinho, and now this time is just for the players to stabilize their mentality and strive for better performance.
So, he only briefly reassured the players, emphasizing that the game should be treated with a normal heart, and said a bunch of irrelevant things. It's not that Mourinho doesn't take the game seriously. Before the big game, it's useless to say anything, what you need to do is to fight hard, or say a lot of exciting words, which will make the players more nervous with psychological pressure.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the players of both teams were ready to play.
Wang Li stood in the players' tunnel, his eyes kept staring at the Liverpool players, he didn't have any other thoughts, just a natural look at the opponent's situation.
At this time, there was no communication between the Liverpool players, everyone stared at the pitch with a solemn face, and the atmosphere that spread between them made the little ball boys next to them silent.
Obviously, judging from the expressions and attitudes of these players, they are not 'combative' at all as the media said, but they are high-spirited.
"It's not going to be a good game." Wang Li said in his heart.
It's not that he thinks the game will lose, it's just that Liverpool has put on such a scrappy look, and it is not easy to simply win, I am afraid that before the game, many teammates thought of the so-called 'directly locked the score with goals in the first half, and the second half became garbage time', which has completely become a fantasy.
A light whistle sounded, and the referee waved for the players of both teams to enter.
As the players from both sides entered the stadium, commentators from various countries began to introduce the starting line-ups of both teams in turn, but most of the media introduced Liverpool's line-up first, as their introduction to Liverpool was brief and only skimmed.
After that, it was Chelsea's turn, and most of the content was about Chelsea, and every star of Chelsea was talked about by them, especially Wang Li and Thomas, both of whom only rose this season, Wang Li is still different, fans are tired of hearing his name, and Thomas is highlighted, because many fans in remote countries don't know that there is such a person.
As a goalkeeper, that's the sad part
