Chapter 22 "I haven't heard of Team Gosho"
The first half of the game ended quickly in the fast-paced attack and defense of the two teams. At the beginning of the second half, pinto replaced two defensive players with two offensive players. He had already had the idea of breaking the boat. Sporting Lisbon's desperate playing method really got the effect. In the 56th minute, Chile's front midfielder Fernandez was leaving. Gosho's goal was 35 meters away and suddenly made a long shot. He made a world wave. The ball went straight to the upper left corner of Gosho's goal. Rhett was blocked by the dense crowd in the penalty area. When he saw the ball, the ball was very close to the goal. Although Rhett tried his best to save, he still failed to touch the ball. , Sporting Lisbon won back one point.
"Fernandez made a long shot outside the penalty area and scored the goal. This is a wonderful world wave. Gosho's goalkeeper Ray is also helpless about this goal. Now that Sporting Lisbon has scored one point, there is still suspense about which of the two teams will advance. If Sporting Lisbon can score two more goals from Gosho instead of getting Gosho to score, they will advance with the advantage of away goals. Duan Xuan was still explaining the game in high spirits.
Lin Fenglei sighed on the coach's seat. The ball exposed Rhett's shortcomings very well. If his reaction is faster or taller, the ball may be thrown out by him. Of course, during this period of time, Sporting Lisbon attacked fiercely in the front court. There were a large number of people they put into the attack. Antunović lost each other and relaxed his attention to Fernandez, which caused Fernandez to easily take a long shot without defense. Lin Fenglei, who was aware of this problem, immediately replaced Esposito with Ivanovic, strengthening the defense of the middle.
In the 73rd minute of the whole game, Gosho counterattacked. Tobinski dribbled the ball from the left and cut into the corner of the big penalty area and made a long shot. As a result, the ball was blocked by Sporting Lisbon's central defender Tonell. Ribeiro came forward to take the corner kick. This time, his corner kick accurately found Egman, Eger. Man jumped high and pushed the ball into the goal of Sporting Lisbon.
Lin Fenglei stood up and raised his hands high. In fact, he was still a little worried when the offensive of Sporting Lisbon was very fierce just now. Although the strength of the Goshao team was stronger than that of Sporting Lisbon, the team's European experience was still a little worse. Now Egman's goal has also reassured Lin Fenglei.
Duan Xuan was very excited: "Egman, it's Egman again. He scored twice, and his goal basically locked a promotion place for Gosho!"
The Lisbon Athletic team's fierce offensive was immediately lost after Egman's goal. They were fighting for a rather slim hope, but now the total score has become 2:5, and there are only more than ten minutes left, which basically announces their out, so their fighting spirit is The son has been lost. And Pingto had no choice but to sit back in the coach's seat and no longer urged his players to attack.
Seeing that Sporting Lisbon was no longer able to attack, the Gosho team did not launch any more offensive. They played the control ball. At the end of the game, Lin Fenglei also replaced two substitutes in succession, killing the rest of the time. When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, the whole Gosho fans suddenly became excited.
"The game is over. Goshao defeated Sporting Lisbon 3:1 at home and entered the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League. Let's congratulate Coach Lin Fenglei and Goshao! They have done miracles, and they have been working miracles for the past few years. Can they continue to move forward in the Champions League? This is worth looking forward to!" Duan Xuan roared on the TV.
Pinto walked to Lin Fenglei at the first moment at the end of the game, and then stretched out his right hand to Lin Fenglei. Lin Fenglei held his right hand. Pingto smiled and said to Lin Fenglei, "Congratulations on entering the Champions League quarterfinals. You really play better. You deserve it."
Lin Fenglei also smiled and said to Pingto, "Your tactical arrangement is also very good today. Just now, I was a little confused by your fierce attack. You can't be blamed for your loss.
Pingto sighed, "Well, if you lose, you lose." Then he smiled and pointed to the Gosho player who ran this way and said, "Go and celebrate with your players."
Lin Fenglei smiled apologetically, waved to Pingto, and turned his head to meet his players.
Gosau's entry into the quarterfinals of the Champions League made Swiss football jubilant. This achievement is not only historic for Gosau, but also historic for Switzerland as a whole. In addition, in the first knockout round of the UEFA Europa League last month, Zurich and Basel also successfully advanced successfully, and Swiss football has entered an unprecedented era. .
In the second round of the second round of the knockout round of the UEFA Europa League held two days later, Zurich continued to make great progress. They defeated the Russian Central Army of Moscow at home and advanced to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa League. Basel lost to Eindhoven on the road and failed to go further, but this result has made Swiss football. Overjoyed, the Swiss team has entered the top eight of the UEFA Europa League and the UEFA Champions League at the same time, which indicates that the overall strength of Swiss football has reached a new height, which is bound to set off a football fever in Switzerland.
Lin Fenglei is also happy to see such a result. The higher the overall level of the Swiss league, the more beneficial it will be to the future development of the Gosau Club. If the Gosau team is always unique, it will be unfavorable to the improvement of Gosau's level in the long run.
With the rise of Gosau, the level of the Swiss league is indeed higher than in reality. For example, Zurich, their top scorer Lewandowski should have transferred to the Bundesliga giant Dortmund in reality, but in the FM world, he is still fighting for Zurich. Zurich this season He played a great role in his breakthrough in the League Cup. Several other traditional strong teams have also increased their investment, because the sudden rise of Gosho made them feel the crisis.
After all the knockout rounds of the Champions League, the eight matches of the Champions League were immediately drawn. As a result, Gosau drew the Serie A giants Inter Milan. The other three groups were Juventus vs Real Madrid, Manchester City vs Barcelona, Olympiacos vs Arsenal. In the first round of knockout, Group C leader The defending champion Bayern Munich unfortunately won the second Barcelona in Group E and was eliminated by Barcelona. The first place in Group G, the Premier League hegemony Manchester United surprisingly lost to the second place in Group F. Olympiacos in Greece made people sigh that Ferguson was getting old. Lin Fenglei remembered the Champions League at this time. Only after Ferguson's words at the group draw ceremony did he know that Ferguson was really old.
Lin Fenglei has nothing to say about winning Inter Milan. In the quarterfinals, except for Olympiakos, it may be a little better to play, and no other opponents in the draw are good. This is a winning pick. Inter Milan's head coach is Mourinho. In reality, the madman should be in Bernabeu with the power of the Triple Crown and take charge of Real Madrid. However, in the FM world, he still stays in Inter Milan, but now Inter Milan is no longer the power of the Triple Crown. In the current Serie A, from " Juventus, who regained their vitality in the "telephone door" incident, firmly suppressed Inter Milan and occupied the top position in the table.
Although Mourinho's performance in leading the team in the past two years is average, the team's big stars such as Eto'o, Balotel and others are not very calm. They make trouble from time to time, which makes the madman very worried, but the madman is as arrogant as ever. When a reporter interviewed him, he asked him what he had about his opponent of the Champions League quarter-finals. When he saw it, he said with a stubborn face, "I have never heard of the Gosho team."
The reporter reminded him that Gosho was the triple champion of last season. He asked the reporter which three champions he was. When the reporter told him the three championships that Gosho won last season, he smiled contemptuously: "Swiss Super League, Swiss Cup, UEFA Europa League? Hahaha, let me know their names when they get the Champions League. After saying that, he left all the reporters and left, leaving only a group of reporters to look at each other.
