Chapter 289: Take all three points
Roy. After Keane announced his retirement from the national team, Ireland's results have not improved, and head coach Kerr has been questioned. Under the internal and external troubles, although it is a home game, I am afraid that no one will think that this civilian team can overturn the French team led by Joe Cannon at Reimsdown Road.
At this time, the French team, after a big victory and Willian. After Gallas's expulsion, Jovan's prestige and deterrence in the team reached its peak, establishing supreme authority and dominance.
The players looked up to Jowan Xian even more than the team's leader, Marcel. Desailly and assistant coach Laurent. Blanco. You know, these two are the core players of the 98 championship team, and the French Football Association wants to bring a little championship temperament to the team through these two.
But now everyone understands that with Qiao Wanxian alone, let alone a champion temperament, even if it is a champion gene, he can give you a mutation.
In this game, Qiao Wanxian continued to build a 4-2-3-1 formation for the French team, after all, this formation is a symbol of football in the new era.
The national team does not have as much time to build the team as the club, and the manager has to adopt the same set of things that the players are familiar with, and can add some new elements, but not drastic changes, otherwise the players who are in a hurry and are not familiar with each other will feel uncomfortable.
This is also the reason why football powerhouses such as France, Spain, Germany, England, Spain, Brazil, and Argentina prefer local coaches when choosing their head coaches. After all, local coaches are more familiar with their country's football and players than foreigners, and can continue the tradition of local football. So as to integrate into the team more and lead the team to play faster.
In this regard, Qiao Wanxian accepted Blanco's suggestion. Focus on creating a 4-2-3-1 balance for the team.
It's just that in this game, France's starting lineup surprised all French fans in a cold sweat!
There is an unfamous rule on the football field, that is, after a big win, he will not start, but this Qiao Wan is idle...... It's too big!
Eight starters were replaced in one go.
The goalkeeper is Sebastian from Florence. Frei, although he was previously selected for the French team, had a bad relationship with Domenech and never had the opportunity to play. It was his debut for the French team!
At the back, Zim Bonda, Silvestre, Boumson and Evra came on together. The double midfielder is the partner of Makelele and Diarra, and the forward midfielder Zinedine Zidane. The two-sided striker is a combination of Pire and Malouda, with a single arrow Anelka.
Veteran Zinedine Zidane continued to start, while Thierry Henry was on the bench to give Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger a long breath. It seems that this kid Qiao Cannon still has a bit of morality. If he dares to drain Henry's physical energy in the national team. Arsene Wenger is definitely going to blast it.
On 7 September, the Lansdown Road Stadium was star-studded, with celebrities from the entertainment industry, sports and politics all present to watch this crucial match for Ireland.
A win over France would see Ireland move to second place in the group and give them a chance to qualify for the play-offs and close to the Shijie Cup. Although this may seem very slim, it is a silver lining. And the French team's starting lineup has changed dramatically, and maybe Ireland can really upset at home.
The game. Qiao Wanxian once again offered a full-level ultimate move - 11 ml Shengyuan No. 1!
Less than a minute into the game, veteran Robert Brown, who was back in the starting line-up. Pire showed his strong playmaking skills up front. A clever split from the edge of the penalty area set up Zim Bonda on the right, who crossed low and Anelka scrambled to open the scoring!
Arsene Wenger, who had been slightly worried about Pire's start, almost jumped for joy when he saw the goal. Good ball, Pire's form is really good! If he can get back to great form with the national team, it will be a benefit for the club.
In the 12th minute of the game, France got a direct chance to go about 23 meters on the left side of the penalty area.
Captain Zinedine Zidane stood in front of the ball.
Machete!
The ball went around the wall with a deadly arc and went straight to the far corner of the player, and Given's eyes sent the ball into the net, but there was no reaction!
At 2:0, the Irish fans on the scene almost fell into despair, Joe cannon of the French team...... It's simply too powerful to fight!
However, just five minutes later, thunderous cheers erupted in the stadium of Lancedown Road. Keane counter-attacked and scored a goal!
This goal can be said to have broken Qiao Wanxian's record.
In the past games, whenever Qiao Wanxian used the full-level move of 11 ml Shengyuan No. 1, the team would be invincible and invincible on the field, and the back line was even more ironclad, and there was no record of conceding a goal so far.
And Robbie. Keane, breaking with that tradition.
Lars. Diarra's ability is undeniable, but the style of play is ...... It's worrying. Obviously a midfielder, but always like to play in the midfield to play the work of the midfield, this time, the face of the more astute Robbie. Keane, Diarra's heel knock miss, was defeated by Robbie. Keane seized the opportunity to drive straight in, facing the onrushing goalkeeper Frei, and a daring volley through the French goal.
Ireland get a city back!
Qiao Wanxian was speechless about this Diarra. You're wearing the No. 18 shirt now, not the No. 10 shirt you used to be royal, so you can't play honestly?
Diarra obviously saw the dissatisfied look on Qiao Wanxian's face, and was so frightened that he almost peed his crotch, clasped his hands together and said good things to Zidane, begging him to say a few kind words.
He knows that the current head coach is not an ordinary person, don't look at the game before it starts for more than a dozen points, if you annoy him, it is common to replace him directly.
Only the unexpected, nothing can't be done, this is Joe's cannon!
If he leaves the field after 17 minutes of the game, is there any hope for his national team career?
Fortunately, Qiao Wanxian on the sidelines waved his hand generously, and said angrily: "Stay on the field!" 11 to 11 is not difficult, we 10 to 12 is a bit challenging! ”
"Karma?"
Although Diarra is a black man, he also has a big red face and is embarrassed and embarrassed. Oops, Joe's cannon is treating me like a spy? No, you have to make up for it!
In the 30th minute of the game, France attacked again, winger Malouda from Lyon received Zidane's pass and then sprinted to the side at a 45-degree angle......
The ball sliced in an eerie arc through the air and crashed into Ireland's goal.
It was a very difficult shot as Anelka was flying with his back to the ball, and young goalkeeper Givens did not react to such a shot.
3:1!
Anelka helped France extend their lead to two goals again.
However, the Irish fans at the scene were not discouraged by this. Keane's goal said it all, and the French team's door was not so impregnable!
But just a minute later, the French offensive came again. Diarra received a cross from Timbonda from outside the penalty area and fired a groundbreaking long-range shot that killed the Irishman's vision.
4:1, Diarra used a goal to prove to Qiao Wanxian that he was still a little useful!
I have to say that Russ, who is known as "Little Makelele". Diarra is not at the same level as Makelele on the defensive end, but on the offensive end, his ability is indeed not weak.
In the next game, the French team's offensive weakened a little, and the Irish fans in the sky couldn't sit still, and stood up to applaud the home team, hoping that the team could make a change.
Even if it's just a goal!
However, after ten minutes of calm, at the end of the first half, the French team scored another goal!
Anelka reciprocated, leaning on defender Brin on the edge of the penalty area and heading the ball to Malouda, who broke away from Hart's defence and fired the winning shot in the back row.
Once again, the hapless Givens did not make any reaction moves!
5:1, the French team took 45 minutes, almost encountered any resistance, and won all three points! (To be continued......)
