257 League Cup Final

George has a lot of experience in dealing with a team with the technical flow of Galatasaray.

Just like in the Premier League, it is the best way to deal with Leeds United George. So far, George has the absolute upper hand in the collision with Leeds United.

Galatasaray's attack is very strong. There are Hassan on both sides. Saas and Yumit. Both of them are fast and skilled sideline players. Together with the midfielders Haji, Okan and Emre, it is completely a technical midfield combination.

However, their defense is not as good as their attack.

They completely relied on their strong attack ability and took advantage of the opportunity that many European teams were not familiar with Turkish clubs to reach the UEFA Cup final.

Galatasaray was able to win the United, and there was a relationship between the death of two fans in the Istanbul away game. But what's more, Leeds United is in defense and can't defend against Galatasaray's attack.

In addition, Leeds United failed to compete in the midfield competition.

But Blackburn does not have this problem.

What George has to do is to suppress Galatasaray's midfielder and then break their defense with offense.

Of course, Trim can't let Blackburn control the midfield so easily, so he wants to take back the control of the midfield.

In the midfield of Galatasaray, of course, Okan's position is the most important. Because the whole rhythm of Galatasaray is controlled by Okan. But there is also one person who is very important, that is, Emre.

If Okan is Galatasaray's menom, then Haji is the most threatening midfielder in Galatasaray's attack. In particular, Haji's pass is unpredictable, which makes people unable to prevent it.

But the role of midfielder Emre is absolutely very important.

Emre is an accelerator. He is not only involved in defense, but more importantly, he is the most powerful person in the current midfielder.

In a team's attack, two sides can open the opponent's defense. But there is also a strong impact player in the middle, so the sudden insertion will also be the biggest threat to the opposing team.

One of the best midfield combinations that George saw in his previous life was Liverpool during the Benitez era.

At that time in Liverpool, their midfield iron triangle was Mascherano, Alonso and Gerrard. At that time, their division of labor was very clear, that is, Mascherano was responsible for the defense, Alonso was responsible for the rhythm of the team, and Gerrard was a strong player.

This midfield is definitely a classic combination. Although Galatasaray's midfielder cannot be compared with Liverpool's midfielder, they have the same characteristics. Emre's role is somewhat similar to Gerrard's role, and it is absolutely an indispensable part of Galatasaray's midfield.

But after Trim adjusted, he found that Emre had not entered the state for a long time.

There is no sharpness of the past, and there is no murderous spirit of the past. On the contrary, he was a little scared, and this discovery made Trim curse Blackburn fiercely in his heart.

Compared with Hakan. Sooke, Emre is too young. After being affected by the change, I can't adjust my state well. I can't find the feeling of the past on the court.

"Deco... passed it directly to the previous Klose. Klose withdrew to get the ball, and Popescu was defending..."

Klose has been very active since the start of the game. And Klose is not the kind of standing pile center, so he often withdraws and takes the ball.

Before the game, there are also some media analyzing whether George is dissatisfied with Klose, so he wants to use Hakan. Suc came to replace Klose. There is still a market for such a statement, and many people still agree with it.

But Klose didn't take this view as a thing at all. The tacit understanding between Cloze and George cannot be understood by outsiders. Klose has always been under pressure. When I was in Burnley, Robby. Keane, Kevin. Phillips are all powerful strikers. But George forced Klose to become a striker.

When it comes to Blackburn, there are more good forwards. George had a lot of transfer fees at that time, and there were many choices. But George still trusts Klose.

Klose is also competitive. No matter how big the doubts outside are, there is no wavering at all. Although the goal was a little less, he was able to complete the task assigned by George every time. And by this season, the goal has also been enlightened a lot.

This tacit understanding between George and Klose was cultivated in five years. It's not something that outsiders can understand after saying a few words.

After Klose took the ball, Yu Jiao looked at Popescu.

Popescu is the backbone of Romania's defense and the core of Galatasaray's defense. He was a very good scavenger. It was just because Klose led him out that he followed Klose.

It's just that Popescu is old now, and he is thirty-three years old this year.

"Klose... Popescu couldn't defend Klose."

After Cloze took the ball, there was no pause, and suddenly it started. Klose's explosive power is very strong. Although Popescu attached great importance to Klose, Klose still rushed in from the left side of Popescu.

However, Popescu is not an ordinary person. Although I am old, my physical fitness has decreased a lot. But he has enough experience and good consciousness.

Although it was passed by Klose, Popescu did not panic at all. When he got out of the outside line, he was already stuck in the penalty area and didn't let Klose have a chance to shoot.

Klose didn't care at all, but continued to go to the outside.

"Klose's technology has really grown a lot. Look at what Klose looks like in the penalty area now. There is no crampedness at all.

It's true that Klose has seen a lot of the world. Klose's skills are becoming more and more delicate, and even in the face of the encirclement of several defenders, he is not in a hurry. Popescu defends the inside, while other defenders have begun to surround Klose.

"Cloz has reached near the bottom line, and there is nothing he can do. What will he choose?"

Clozer's situation is indeed not good. He is surrounded by three sides and there is no gap. Everyone is thinking that Klose should have a corner kick at this time. But Klose has been holding the ball with his head down, so that people can't see what he wants to do.

Just when everyone thought the ball was going to be taken out by Klose, Klose gently wiped the inside of his left foot. The ball passed through a small gap between the two central defenders who besieged Klose.

The speed of the ball is not fast, but it is beyond the expectation of the defensive players.

Along the route of the ball, a player wearing a blue and white jersey with a big "10" on the back of the jersey shot fiercely against the ball.

"Miku! It's Miku!"

"Tfaarrell, he didn't react at all. The ball is too close, and it's too sudden. Tfarel has no reaction time at all.

"Haha, the game has only lasted 32 minutes, and Blackburn has already led Galatasaray one to zero. George's bold words are still in my ears. George is only one step away from the League Cup championship.

"Eighty percent of this ball should be Klose's. Klose attracted all the defensive players, and then passed the ball very suddenly, completely penetrating Galatasaray's defense.

"If anyone says that Cloze became the main force by relying on George's relationship, I will be anxious with him."

See Mortson's sudden explanation of the goal.

"Yes, this ball shows Klose's characteristics vividly. Klose is not a simple shooter, but an all-round striker who can pass and shoot. After five years of waiting, George finally waited for a world-class striker.

Alan. Hansen also agreed with Mottson.

Miku was very excited after seeing the goal. And Close, who assisted him, gave a fierce hug.

Although Miku's age is almost the same as Zidane's, his fame can't be compared with Zidane's. Zidane has been a talented player in France since he was a child. So far, he has won the European Super Cup, the Toyota Cup, the Serie A and so on. He has even won the runner-up in the League Cup and the runner-up in the Champions Cup twice.

Not to mention that Zidane led the French team to the World Cup.

Zidane began to appear in the Ligue 1 at the age of 17. By the age of 24, he had become the main midfielder of the world giant Juventus at that time. He became the world champion at the age of 26. Got Mr. Football.

And Miku, who is only one year younger than Zidane, is already 27 years old. But so far, it has not won any championship. It can be said that Miku's honor list is still empty so far.

27 years old, it can be said that he is already at the peak of a player. If you can't get any honors at this time, then basically the player's career is just like this.

So Miku cherishes the opportunity to the League Cup final now.

Miku is unwilling to give up this opportunity. This League Cup Miku is bound to win.

"John. Miku!"

"Miku! Miku!"

"Champion! We want the championship!"

"We don't need Zidane because we have John. Miku."

Because many media have compared Zidane and Miku together. So when the fans sing Miku, they will have this sentence "We don't need Zidane" every time.

When Miku scored, 14,000 Blackburn fans immediately became excited.

George on the sidelines was even more excited when he saw Miku's goal. Kneel down and clenched your hands.

This is the final of the UEFA Cup and the final of George's first European Cup. George was very nervous. Unlike domestic competitions such as the League Cup and the FA Cup, once George won the League Cup. Then George will be able to make his name in the European football world immediately.

Not only George, but all Blackburn benches are boiling. One-to-one, Blackburn led Galatasaray.

"Look at George, this is really excited. Although George has a big mouth, he is still cool on the sidelines. I'm not too excited. I won't make such an excited action.
