Miniature of the 232 season (Part II)

Lopes was passionate, scoring and running for the half. Celebrate with the Valencia fans. Valencia fans must have the favorite in Valencia, because López has been Valencia's top scorer since he came to Valencia. That's why fans love Lopez so much. None of the fans knew that their beloved López would soon no longer belong to Valencia.

But López himself knows. Because Valencia has already started negotiations with Lazio, everyone started negotiations on the basis of 30 million euros. Both sides are struggling with transfer fees. Otti wants to get some more transfer fees, even if it's more than one million or two million euros. After all, Craniotti is a well-known tycoon in European football. From Craniotti does not earn money, from whom.

However, these maneuvers did not hamper the overall negotiation process. Both Valencia and Lazio know that there is nothing wrong with this transfer, and now it is only Zuihou's decision. López's agent has even started talking to Lazio about the player's personal treatment. Valencia already knew, but didn't say anything.

López was more happy. After all, Lazio has Argentine internationals such as Veron, Crespo, Simeone and Almeida. Lopes also has a good relationship with these Argentine internationals, especially with Veron and Crespo in the Argentine national team. Although he is very happy in his heart, he also has a lot of feelings for Valencia, after all, he really became famous in Valencia. That's why he wanted to leave Valencia with a good result, so he's worked extra hard this season.

See López score. Even Benitez, who had always been uninhibited, stood up and walked forward to applaud. Benitez loves López, really loves López. Because López is very suitable for his tactical system. In what is now Valencia, the tactical role of López and Jankole far exceeds that of Mendieta.

Valencia, Valencia lead Bayern Munich 1-0 at home. If this game is won, Valencia will accumulate 10 points. Valencia was able to emerge from this group. ”

Heathfield frowned dissatisfied. Then he looked at Benitez, who had been straining his face as if he owed something, and shook his head. Heathfield isn't the kind of guy who looks down on defensive coaches, nor is he the kind of guy who admires a young coach like Benitez on the contrary.

Heathfield had hoped to settle the game easily, but it didn't look like it was going to work. So go up and set it up for the Bayern players. Let Sauer drop back and then let Bayern start playing two wings. He wanted to use two wide crosses. Then let Santa Cruz take advantage of the header. Of course, Effenberg's header from the back was not bad.

Speaking of which, Valencia has a header like Jankoller. Defensively, however, Valencia's high-altitude balls are at a disadvantage. Manuel Pellegrini and Ayala are both good on the balls, but they have a height disadvantage. There are very few people in La Liga who play high balls, so there is nothing wrong with their high ball defence. But now facing Bayern Munich, their striker Santa Cruz is a player over 1.9 meters tall.

See Heathfield change. Benitez has also made changes. Changes for Heathfield. Benitez immediately saw what he meant. He sent Gerard back and Makelele to form a back two. Then, every time Bayern crossed, Gerrard would drop back to protect the backline. Gerard is a real talent, able to defend high balls from the back, to be able to go up to the front of the midfield, to be able to dispatch attacks, and even to shoot forward. Gerard is a true all-rounder and can do anything in midfield.

Herard is not as tall as Santa Cruz. But there is also one meter eighty-six. Coupled with his judgment of the high ball, his ability to bounce, his ability to head the ball, the defense of Santa Cruz is not at all lagging behind. On the contrary, Santa Cruz's style of play has a somewhat soft feel compared to Gerrard. Benitez's move sent the game into the mud again. In the midst of this mud, the rest of the first half slowly came to an end.

"Jaime, this Gerard is good."

Because they were ahead of Bayern Munich in the first half, the mood of the two was not bad. Rist didn't notice it before, and his previous memories were all about Baraja and Albelda's midfield combination. But since I got to know Valencia, I found out that Valencia still has a talented midfielder like Gerrard. In this game, Gerrard's performance even overshadowed the likes of Makelele and Albelda. Rist couldn't help but be captivated by him.

Hearing Rist say about Gerrard, Otti had a wry smile on his face. Then he said, "You don't know." Gerrard is playing now, but Barcelona is interesting again. You also know that in the last two years, Deportivo La Coruna has been too strong, so Barcelona has not had any honours. It is estimated that after their election this time, there will be some acquisitions. Gerard probably won't be able to keep it. ”

Rist nodded. In the past two years, Deportivo La Liga has been the strongest team, and Real Madrid at least has the Champions League to be proud of. But Barcelona not only fell in La Liga, but also performed mediocre in Europe. As a giant in La Liga on a par with Real Madrid, Barcelona's results in recent seasons are a real shame.

Gerard has done well and has already attracted the attention of Barcelona. They certainly don't want their Academy players to be left out. Historically, Herard was bought by Barcelona at a high price after performing well in Valencia, but this was also the beginning of Gerrard's downfall. Rist was not prepared to interfere in such a matter, and what did it matter to whether Gerard was dead or alive. Even Rist wants the good players to fall, except for his own players.

"Forget it. You'll just have to slaughter Barcelona when the time comes. I think that with Gerrard's performance, he should sell for 25 million euros at least. ”

Rist wants Valencia to sell for a high price. Because López and Gerard are gone, they will only continue to be introduced if they are sold at a high price. In this way, Lister has the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and recommend more of his players to Valencia.

Today, the Bayern hierarchy also came to Valencia. However, Lister did not follow the past, because Lister knew that Bayern would not have any major transfer moves in the next few years. It wasn't until after the end of the 06shijie cup that Bayern began to make big investments. And Rist doesn't have any friendship with Bayern's top management, and he posted it himself but dropped the price.

Soon the second half began. Bayern still haven't been able to break Valencia's defense, and it is estimated that Benitez must be the first to use a back three to play this kind of defense in La Liga football. And Heathfield has seen countless defensive clubs, but there shouldn't be a few who have played in a back three like Benitez. Because of this, the second half of the game was still dull.

The game was so stalemate, it was too ugly to watch from the perspective of Rist, Otti and the spectators, and even in the second half Rist could only yawn. The game lasted until the 74th minute of the second half, when Valencia won a corner.

'It was a corner from the right. Valencia had a limited number of attacks in this game and it was their third corner of the game. Valencia's set-piece threat is still big because of the availability of an air tyrant like Jankole. ”

With two and a half years in Spanish football, Jankole is already considered by the Spanish football community to be the best center forward with the best header ability. In this game, Bayern Munich's players also fully realized the power of Jankoller's header. So after the corner, they were most nervous about Jankoller. Several defenders were all on the fence against Jankoller together.

"Mendieta, corner...... Jankole stepped forward, this ball is not the front point, the middle! ”

"Herard, Herard. In the middle was Gerrard, header...... Bayern had problems defensively, and they only focused on defending Jankole and Ayala, missing Gerard, who was inserted in the middle. ”

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

"It's not for nothing that Gerard can hold down Albelda and Farinos in Valencia. The Barcelona player can attack and defend well, and the defense of Effenberg in this game is really leaky. And Sauer was not able to play any advantage in front of him. ”

Rist shook his head. At half-time, Rist had just talked about Gerrard, but he didn't expect him to score such a beautiful header in the second half.

"2-0, Valencia led Bayern Munich 2-0 thanks to goals from López and Gerrard. With less than twenty minutes left before the end of the game, it looks like Valencia should be able to claim the win. Valencia are about to secure a place in the group stage. Look, Valencia just scored and Benitez was about to make a substitution. ”

"Angulo replaces Mendieta, Farinos replaces Jankole. It looks like Coach Benitez is going to start defending. No, it should be Coach Benitez who is going to start defending. Valencia's back four came on as a group, which is a rare occurrence. But all four of the midfielders played in this game. ”

The narrator is very helpless to explain. Valencia have four outstanding midfielders to covet all clubs, and now Benitez has fielded all four of them together in a single game. The narrator was helpless, and Heathfield also smiled bitterly. Benitez, the young coach, really didn't have a face, and the four defensive midfielders came on the pitch together.

But it works. Heathfield saw that in the mud of Valencia's midfield, the Bayern players were very unhappy. So shaking his head, he also started to make some important players. Rist and Ottie were already on their feet. Although the game is not over, both men know that the game is actually over. The match Valencia won.

As he was leaving, Rist looked at the game that was still going on the sidelines. Rafael Benitez took over Valencia this season and was also the first time he had managed a strong team. But in fact, this game is the epitome of Benitez's season in Valencia. Valencia has never been afraid of strong teams because they play defensive counter-attacks. But in the face of the weak team, there are not many means to break the goal. (To be continued......)
