Chapter 59 Final with the River Plate Team
The final of this year's World Club Cup will be held on December 21, which is also the last game of the Gosho team this year. After this game, the players can spend a long vacation, which is a very exciting thing for the players.
Of course, winning this game and winning two consecutive championships of the World Club Cup is also something that players are looking forward to. Therefore, the players of Gosho are all fighting spirited. They have to kill the last opponent of the year as soon as possible, so that they can hold the championship trophy and go on a comfortable vacation.
Lin Fenglei realized that this kind of thinking of the players is very dangerous. You should know that although the River Plate team's performance in the past few seasons has not been very good, and their performance in this semi-finals is very average, after all, they are a traditional Argentine giant, and this season they have won the Liberator Cup in South America, a strong team. There is a saying that thin camels are bigger than horses, and their strength is not much worse.
If the Goshao team plays this game with contempt for their opponents, Lin Fenglei can be sure that their end will never be wonderful.
So Lin Fenglei began to give political lessons to the players again. He earnestly advised the players that they must not despise their opponents. If they despise their opponents, they must suffer losses in the end.
The players were submissive, but they didn't seem to listen. Lin Fenglei sighed in his heart that these kids have been too smooth recently. They have to beat them from time to time before they can be honest.
Lin Fenglei finally offered a trump card. He told the players that if they lost the game and lost the championship because of their undermining enemy, then they would be embarrassed that their holiday would end early.
This threat really made the players' mentality much better. I'm kidding. After playing the World Cup this summer, I already missed a holiday. If this holiday also shrinks, how can I cry?
On December 21, the 2014 World Club Cup final began. The two sides were last season's European champion Gosau and last season's Copa Libertadores champion Argentina River Plate. Both sides are the main players for this game.
Gosho's starting lineup is goalkeeper Checarelli, left-back Ribeiro, right-back Gugelman, central defender Salihovic and Chevali, left winger Avantsini, right winger Holensten, and midfielder Antunović. He is in front of Ivanovic, and the two strikers are still a combination of Egman and Kaudinho.
The starting lineup of the River Plate team is goalkeeper Guilleme, left-back Jerez, right-back Herrera, centre-back Garvan and Lopez. The double midfielders are Porche and Urla, the first three midfielders are Sarat, Figualdo and Salvio, and the front striker is Dennis.
There are no big stars in the River Plate team's lineup. Most of them are young players trained by the club itself, so their average age is even smaller than that of Gosho. The oldest player on the court is the Brazilian attacking midfielder Fegurdo. He is 32 years old, and the other is Salat. He is 30 years old, and the other players are under 25 years old.
The River Plate team was relegated from the Argentine League a few years ago and sank for several years. Until the recent seasons, they returned to the A-League League with the results of youth training and won the Copa Libertadores in one fell swoop. However, there are no big-name stars in their team now, and the most famous player is probably the attacking player. Salvio played. In reality, he originally went to the Benfica Club in Portugal, but in this FM world, he became the star of the River Plate team.
Although the Gosho players paid more attention to the game under the threat of Lin Fenglei, the less famous opponents still made them a little unspirited, and as a result, they soon paid the price for this contempt.
The game only began for 4 minutes. Gosho's casual pass in the midfield was robbed by the River Plate team. After successfully interpoling the ball, Urla knocked the ball to the right-back Herrera, who inserted the assist. After taking two steps, Herrera handed the ball to Salvio in front of him. Salvio made a cross and saw it in the penalty area and There was no good chance, so he passed the ball back to Herrera.
Herrerama's ball was crossed to Fergudo in the middle. Fergudo's non-stop ball directly pushed the ball to the air in the middle of the front of the penalty area. Salat followed and shot for the first time. He put out a beautiful arc ball with his right foot. Checarelli reacted quickly and jumped up to the ball, but the ball bypassed. Cut Carelli's finger and got into the upper right corner of the goal.
The goal made the few River Plate supporters at the scene ecstatic. They shouted the name of Salat who scored the goal. Salat also ran crazily to the stands of the River Plate fans. Then the River Plate players pressed him under them and they celebrated the team's goal.
This ball shows the style of the River Plate team. Their players are skilled and pass the ball well. Because most of them are players from the youth training camp of the River Plate team, they have been playing together since they were very young, so their cooperation is also very tacit. Just now, the ball was passed five passes before the shot, and each time is basically a kick. The ball opened the space for shooting after a quick pass, and finally Sarath finished the goal.
Salat's goal seemed to be a hit on the head of the Gosho players, which made them wake up. They realized that the River Plate team was not something they could despise. They really want to tighten their state, but the state of the game does not mean that it can be tight. Just as they adjusted their state, the River Plate team took the opportunity to make two very threatening attacks and almost broke through the door of the Gosho team. Fortunately, the state of Checarelli was still excellent, which did not make the River Plate team expand. Points.
Lin Fenglei sat on the sidelines and frowned, but he did not stand on the sidelines to supervise the battle. Now there is still a lot of time for the game. Let these guys adjust by themselves. Although he makes the players pay attention to his opponents, he believes more in the strength of his players. As long as they play normally, it is not a big problem to win the game.
Although the River Plate team played well today, the Gosau team quickly found their weakness, that is, their height is generally average, especially their two central defenders, Galvan is only 1.78 meters tall, Lopez is better, but only 1.82 meters, they are in front of Egman and Kodinho. He is half short, and his physical strength is much worse than that of the two.
Of course, the Gosho team should make good use of such an advantage. In the 16th minute of the game, Ivanovic divided the ball to Horenstein on the right side. Horenstein took the ball and pushed the ball near the opponent's bottom line. Two players from the River Plate team pounced on him. Horenstein saw that there was no chance to cross the ball, so he made the ball big. The range was transferred to Antunović inserted in the middle.
Antunović knocked the ball directly to the right-back Gugelman who inserted the assist. Gugelman attracted a River Plate defensive player, and he immediately passed the ball back to Antunović. At this time, the defensive center of the River Plate team has been gradually transferred to the middle. However, they didn't expect that Antunović passed the ball again and divided the ball to the foot of Hollensten on the right again.
At this time, Holensten was already undefended. He directly raised his foot and passed the ball. After the back point Egman sprinted, he jumped high and a powerful header rushed to the top. The ball got into the upper left corner of the goal. Although Galvan, who defended Egman, tried his best to interfere with Egman below, whether he pulled his hand or tripped, Unable to shake Egman, he could only watch Egman's ball above his head enter his door.
This time, it was the turn of the supporters of the Gosho team. They shouted Egman's name loudly. Even if the Gosho team was advanced by the River Plate team and was in a relatively passive situation for a period of time, they never lost confidence, because they believed in Egman, and the striker never let His supporters have been disappointed. Every time the team encounters difficulties, he always stands up and fights for the team.
