Chapter 169: It's Not the End of the World!

"It's only 10 minutes before the end of the game and Don is still on the bench, which means Domenech won't let him play," ESPN said. It's really too difficult to fall behind by two goals and catch up in ten minutes. The French coach did it wisely, and if France lost this game, there would still be hope of qualifying. ”

But the French fans in attendance were not happy with this, and they called for the team's number one star to play, which put a lot of pressure on Domenech. It's not easy to be a manager, you have to balance the inside of the team and the pressure from the outside. ”

ESPN sympathized with Domenech, and shortly after the Anelka incident, the French fans in the stadium began to abuse again, believing that the French coach was troubled internally and externally. The frustrated French fans continued to insult Domenech, and some fans began to leave the stadium early.

With a two-goal lead, the Dutch team shrank their defence and they had to hold the win firmly in their hands. With two goals down, France continued to attack in disappointment as they regained face.

In the 85th minute, Ribery passed the ball on the left, and Henry shot with his left foot from a small angle of 8 meters on the left rib, but unfortunately the football hit the side netting!

In the 87th minute, France won a direct free kick in front, and Ribery took the penalty, and his free kick flew off the crossbar.

Henrique, a famous commentator on France TΓ©lΓ©vision? Hilario said: "Ribery took a free-kick and the French fans missed Don on the bench even more. France's number one star, known for his breakthroughs, has improved the most since his move to Real Madrid, where he has taken free-kicks. His second goal in the Champions League final came from a direct free-kick. That goal helped Real Madrid equalise again. The foundation was laid for the final lore. ”

"'Weak forward', the French team is in this state again. This match sobered up French fans, and without Don, France's offense would have only blossomed and not borne fruit! ”

Three minutes after stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game. Excited Dutch substitutes burst onto the pitch, frustration written on every French player's face.

Dutch national television shouted: "The game is over! The Dutch team won two games and took the lead in qualifying from the group! Congratulations to the Netherlands, congratulations to Basten, they won the 06 World Cup champions and runners-up! We hope they will continue to work hard and bring us more surprises! ”

Henrique, a famous commentator on France TΓ©lΓ©vision? Hilario said: "It was a frustrating game and France missed a lot of chances to score. However, the French team did not lose the chance to qualify. As long as they win their last game against Italy, they will still be able to qualify. ”

Basten politely walked over and shook Domenech's hand. Then he came to Tang Jue's side, held his hand and asked with concern, "How many days do you need to recover?" ”

Basten is a star that Tang never respects, and both have brought glory to Milan. He politely replied, "Two or three days." Congratulations! ”

Basten patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'm sure you can beat Italy!" ”

"Thank you!" Tang Jue nodded and said, "I think so too." ”

……

In an ordinary family in Paris, a family of three sat on the sofa and watched the live broadcast. His face was full of loneliness. Pierce, the son, looked up at his father and said, "This game only shows one truth - there is no Don." The French team is a piece of shit! ”

"You 'fall down'. Okay, go ahead! You guys are going to ruin the French team! ”

Pierce was still very dissatisfied with his father. The Frenchmen in their forties and fifties responded to the British media before the start of the European Championships. made unfavorable remarks in front of the media. Saying that he does not love France and is not worthy of being the captain of France. Pierce thinks that these old guys should be sober, and the French team without Tang Jue is just a piece of shit.

The father's face was extremely ugly, and he was already uncomfortable when he lost the game, and now he was attacked by his son. The mother hurriedly took Pierce and left, and Pierce said loudly: "Don is the eternal captain of the French team!" No one else deserves it! ”

……

Back in the locker room, the French team fell silent, and no one felt good if they lost. There was even a hint of guilt on the faces of attacking players such as Thierry Henry and Ribery, who missed a lot of scoring opportunities.

As a result of a few words with Basten, Don was the last to enter the locker room. After entering the locker room, he looked around and felt that the atmosphere was not right. Without hesitation, he said loudly, "What's wrong?" Brothers, this is not the end of the world, and we have not lost the opportunity to advance. Do you mean that when you lose a game, you lose confidence? ”

Everyone just lowered their heads and shook their heads, Tang Jue patted Henry's shoulder and said, "I know that you feel very uncomfortable, and my heart is not comfortable either." But ......"

He looked up at his teammates and exclaimed, "As long as we win the last game against Italy, we can still advance to the knockout round!" ”

"We've beaten them twice in a row since the '06 World Cup and we can still beat them this time!"

The frustration on the faces of his teammates slowly turned into hope. That's right, plus the 06 World Cup, they have won three consecutive victories over the Italian team, Makelele raised his head and looked at Tang Jue and said: "Good! That makes sense, but I have a request! ”

Tang Jue said: "You said, as long as we do it, we will definitely meet your requirements!" ”

Makelele exchanged glances with Thuram and said: "Against Italy, you have to score at least two goals!" ”

Tang never hesitated, and said loudly: "No problem! I'm going to find a way to do it, it's just two balls! ”

His confidence was contagious to his teammates, and Henry exhaled a long breath and said: "I remember before the Champions League final Cannavaro said that if Don could score two goals in the final, he would score a third!" ”

Ribery had a smile on his face, Malouda and the others were interested, and Gala asked, "Why?" ”

Ribery smiled and said, "I'll answer that question." ”

"If he scores two goals in the Champions League final, he will tie Raul and become the top scorer in the Champions League with Raul. At the time, Cannavaro said that a proud man like Don. There is definitely no going to be glory with anyone else, so he will score the third goal to surpass Raul and become the only Champions League goalscorer! ”

Thinking of the Champions League final, there was a strange brilliance in the eyes of the French players. In that high-profile game, Real Madrid had fallen behind twice, and Tang Jue relied on his own strength, stubbornly equalised, and even beat Chelsea in the final moments of the game. It was a classic game, a shock game. Another classic of the Champions League final!

It turns out that there is such a story behind the Champions League final!

The Champions League final was such a tough game. Don can solve it, not to mention Italy, which has already lost to them three times in a row!

After listening to what Ribery said, cold sweat began to break out on his head, and he scolded in his heart: Fuck. The game was so tense. Who has the heart to think about these things. That's completely forced. Because the team has to win the opponent in 90 minutes. What's more, there was an element of luck in the final goal. Now, these guys say it's like this, as if I can do anything.

But that's fine. At least the problem of team morale has been solved. Well, let's just admit it!

'Yes, that's what I thought when I scored the second goal. I want to surpass Raul and become the all-time leading goalscorer in the Champions League. Tang Jue's face was not red, and his heart was not beating.

At this time, Xiao Feifei's voice sounded in his head: "Master, you are acting again......"

……

After addressing the team's morale, Tang Jue decided that Domenech should be supported at such a time, so he left the locker room and went straight to the mixed interview area.

France's number one star may not play tonight, but he is still in the spotlight. Participating in the team's training this morning caused a stir in the media, and before the game, the major media speculated whether he would play tonight. As a person concerned, after these things happened, he has not spoken in front of the media.

So when the media reporter looked at Tang Jue who came over, he became very excited. Just as the reporters were about to throw out various questions, Tang Jue motioned for them to listen to himself first.

"I know you have a lot of questions, and I'm here to answer them for you. First of all, about my recovery, it doesn't match the information released by the team three days ago. I can only tell you that you should not look for the answer to this matter, because there are many miracles happening in this world. ”

'The second question I made was about not playing in this game. Before the game, I wanted to play tonight's game, but the team doctor firmly disagreed, thinking that I had not yet made it through the recovery period and that it was too risky to rush into the game. Of course, we had to listen to the experts, and Mr. Domenech and I agreed with the team doctor. ”

"The third question was about the distrust of the fans in the stadium towards Mr. Domenech. I would like to affirm my unwavering support for Domenech and my golfers. He can lead France to the best result, he can lead us to the last laugh and lift the trophy like he did two years ago! ”

"I know some people may disagree with me right now, it doesn't matter, time will tell if what I say is right. Our goal has never changed, and losing to the Netherlands is not the end of the world. We created a lot of good chances tonight and we had the advantage in terms of possession. I have a lot of confidence in the team! ”

"Alright, that's all I have to say, you can ask questions!"

Tang Jue looked very confident when he spoke, and the British reporter sneered in his heart: Losing to the Netherlands, there will be a gap in the psychology of the French team, and you are still so confident? In addition, it is difficult to say whether you can even qualify from the group now, and you are still here to say that you are going to compete for the final championship. Could it be that Italy was so easy to overcome?

The Daily Mail reporter asked: "So, you're confident about the game in four days' time?" ”

Tang Jue nodded and said: "Since the 06 World Cup, we have defeated them three times in a row, we not only have a psychological advantage, but also know their tactics well. You know, I've been playing in Italy for two years and I know each and every one of them pretty well! ”

The Italian journalist was about to fight back against him, remembering the miracles he had performed in Milan, and for a moment did not know what questions to refute him. A Dutch journalist asked: "Don, what do you think of tonight's game?" Also, I noticed that after the game, Basten shook hands with you, what did you say? ”

Tang Jue said: "Conceding a goal in the ninth minute made the French team passive, which was one of the main reasons for tonight's defeat. Conceding the ball too early, the French team had only one way to attack, so it caused a void in the back. Mr. Basten is a great coach and after taking the lead, he plays defensive counter-attacks. The adjustment worked very well and was the same tactic they used in their first game against Italy. ”

"The second goal of the Netherlands was scored on the counter-attack. We were a little bit anxious when we were behind and we missed a good chance to score, and if we had been a little bit better we would have had a different result tonight. ”

"After the game, I congratulated Mr. Basten and, after asking about his body, he told me that he believed we could beat Italy. I told him, I thought the same thing! ”

A dark cloud appeared on the face of the Italian journalist.

Joseph, a journalist for the Paris daily newspaper, asked: "You just said that you would continue to support Domenech?" ”

Tang Jue nodded firmly and said, "That's right! We firmly support him, and he will lead us to glory! (To be continued......)
