Chapter 44 Crazy European Cup

The Belgian team's forced palace drama began quietly, and then ended. Wilmot was forced to hand over the control of the national team and became Degan's puppet. All this was unknown to the outside world. Immediately after the second competition of Group A, unlike the dullness of the opening game, the game was full of resounding. The big score.

It was the Russians who laughed to the end. Maybe before the game, people were optimistic that Russia could win, but the strength of the Czech team was not bad, but no one thought that the final score would be 4:1.

A score of 4:1 in the Czech Republic, and it was obtained in the situation of 11 to 11, which was obviously beyond everyone's expectation.

After the game, even Edvokat, the head coach of the Russian team, was very surprised: "The result of this game was completely beyond my expectation. I just asked the players to play their abilities on the court, maintain the situation all the time, and show themselves as much as possible. I didn't expect such a result. This is really It's crazy. I want to thank my players for completing a great game!"

In the last European Cup, the scene of the Russian team's elimination of the hot Netherlands is still fresh in memory. Now a new and old Russian team has once again jumped into the sight of fans.

Looking at this game alone, you may not feel too deep, and even feel sorry for the Czech team. When opponents of the same level compete, there are many cases of in carelessness and losing all the game, but you should know that before the opening of the European Cup, the results of the Russian team's airport warm-up match were not ideal, but at the beginning of the official game, The polar bear's minions unexpectedly opened, and a random punch hit the Eastern European iron horse Czech Republic all over the ground looking for teeth.

Adevocat takes over Hiddink's team, and there is pressure. The two are the only coaches to take two different national teams to the final stage in the European Cup.

Hiddink overfulfilled the task in the last European Cup, and although Advokat had decided not to renew his contract with the Russian Football Association before the game, at least before leaving, he had to prove that he was not inferior to his compatriot Hiddink. The European Cup was the only opportunity.

Before the game, it was generally not seen that the slightly conservative Edvokat could lead Russia in this European Cup, but the result of the game proved that he had this ability.

From the perspective of this game, the mutual inheritance of Dutch coaches has been carried forward, which makes the Russian team suddenly feel reborn. The front-court counterattack is rapid, the ribs are straight or the efficiency is very efficient, the players' fast running position is accurate, the back and forth is smooth and the formation is not messy, except for Krzakov's feet. It's really a little inaccurate. The other players who shoot are very good at footwork. If you change into the Dutch team, this is the Russian-speaking Orange Legion in a trance.

In this game, it seems that the number of shots of the two sides is similar, and the possession rate is almost the same, but the score is 4:1. Is there any reason for Russian fans to hope to reproduce the glory of the former Soviet team in the 1960 European Cup?!

The first game was a fiasco, and Czech coach Belek was obviously very disappointed after the game: "I think we played well in the first 15 minutes. Our pass was very good and created some opportunities, but we didn't kick well at the goal, but then we lost possession of the opponent's half, and they quickly destroyed our goal. Attack, that's our mistake. Russia is a very good team. They have a high level. At halftime, I made some adjustments, hoping to change the situation, but the result was very disappointing. We had a lot of problems in defending against Russia's cooperation. They created a lot of opportunities. They Two touches can pose a threat. We can't take the ball from their feet, which is why they get so many opportunities. Today, the Russian team showed us what an excellent team they are. What disappointed me most is that we have a problem in defending Zagyev. He can play both wings. Put, take the ball freely. I specially arranged for the players to keep an eye on him, but still can't stop him. That's really not our mistake. We are very cohesive, but they still create a lot of opportunities to pass the ball calmly. We can't stop them.

Zagoyev!

In the European Cup four years ago, Russia made the world remember a name. Arshavin, who was on the stage of the European Cup after four years, a younger and more concerned red star rose from the Russian camp. Zagoyev, a "monster" that has long begun to spread in European football. The throne of the new tsar.

Zagoyev, wearing No. 17, played an amazing performance in Russia's 4:1 victory over the Czech Republic. This was his European Cup debut, but he scored two goals in the first game. There is no more perfect "self-introduction".

In the 15th minute of the game, the young Russian player received the European Cup's first goal. He appeared in a key position and made a strong shot into the net.

But this is not the end. In the 79th minute of the second half, Zagoyev shot again in the middle, shot, and knocked off Chekh's ten fingers again.

Zagoyev's goal set a new record for the European Cup. This is the first time in the history of this competition that a "post-90s" player has scored a goal. Zagoyev, born on June 17, 1990, is less than 22 years old this year, and the old Tsar Ashavin was stunned in the 2008 European Cup. 7 years old, in contrast, Zagoyev's "deing point" on the road to superstars is obviously earlier.

Although he is young, Zagoyev has long been famous in European football. He has played for the Moscow Central Army and has made many impressive performances in the Champions League.

In the 2009/2010 UEFA Champions League group stage, Zagoyev broke through Manchester United's goal and finally helped the team tenaciously draw the Red Devils 3:3 away. In the UEFA Champions League group stage that just ended this season, Zagoyev conquered Inter Milan's goalkeeper with a shocking free kick. Sal.

Hiding, who led Russia to shine in Euro 2008 predicted that Zagoyev would become Russia's "new tsar" before leaving office.

"Zagoyev is a smart player who can organize the whole team well. He has the ability to send a fatal pass and can make good use of every inch of the land on the court."

At present, Zagoyev lacks, perhaps the training of the rich clubs in Europe. In this regard, the eldest brother Ashavin once recommended this younger brother to Arsenal: "He is the most talented player in Russia today, and Arsenal should sign him."

However, from the recent news exposed by the media, Chelsea owned by Russian boss Abu is a team closer to Zagoyev. In fact, the Russian talented teenager once tried out in Chelsea. Hiddink, the then Blues coach, once wanted to sign him, but failed to do so.

Before this European Cup, the media disclosed Chelsea's interest in Zagoyev. Now looking at his fellow villagers on the stage of the European Cup, Abu may throw out the checkbook again and shout out the words that Blues fans love to hear: Buy!

After this game, Zagoyev, who was interviewed in the mixed zone, did not want to talk more about his personal performance. Instead, he thanked his teammates. He said, "This is the first game. We have performed well. This is very important. This is one of the six steps to advance to the finals and win the championship. For us, this victory is for every player to work together. As a result, everyone is doing their best to help the whole team.

It sounds like this "post-90s" is quite mature, and this temperament may help him climb to a higher peak in the future.

Fans have new idols, of course, they can't forget the old Tsar. In this game, the familiar Arsenal "Tsar" is back!

Fans still remember that in the European Cup four years ago, Alshavin, who was not well known at that time, returned from the ban in the last group match. He first helped Russia defeat Sweden in the life-and-death battle, and then shined in the game against the popular Dutch team that won the championship, with a goal and an assist. He led the Russian team to the quarterfinals with his head held high.

Four years later, Arshavin is no longer young. In Arsenal, he also fell into a purge because of his declining state. However, in the European Cup, which made him famous, Alshaven told the world one by one that the "Tsar" did not want to abdicate with a perfect performance!

Russia's ability to wash the Czech Republic, a veteran team in Eastern Europe, will undoubtedly surprise many people. In this game, Zagoyev, a two-yuan young player, is undoubtedly the biggest highlight. I believe that Arshavin, as the captain, must have seen his shadow in Zagoyev.

However, for the "tsar", he has no time to sigh about the passage of time. Alshavin must use his excellent performance to silence those who doubted him before.

Although Arshavin did not score in this game, he contributed two assists, and his role in the core of the Russian frontcourt attack was highlighted.

In the game, the "Tsar" ran very actively, the breakthrough was still sharp, and the pass was also very accurate, which was completely different from the bad state at Arsenal at the beginning of this season.

In the 24th minute of the game, Arshavin took the ball in front of the penalty area to instigate the offensive. His oblique pass was missed by Krzakov at the front point, and Schrokov's small angle at the back point shot through Cech's ten fingers. Alshavin helped the ball expand the lead to 2:0.

In the 82nd minute of the second half, Arshavin scored the ball, and after the substitute Pavlyuchenko continuously shook out of Hubnik, he made a strong shot at the edge of the penalty area and locked the score to 4:1. Ashavin also completed his second assist in the game.

The performance of the Alsha text game makes people vaguely recall his peak state when he was at Arsenal. After becoming famous in the last European Cup, Arsenal spent 15 million pounds to get Alshavin from Zenit in St. Petersburg, and the Russians quickly adapted to the competition environment of the Premier League.

Arshavin's most classic match in Arsenal staged a good play in the away game against Liverpool, and the reputation of the Tsar was also widely recognized in the Premier League.

However, in the past two seasons, due to the change of position and the decline of state, Alshavin has increasingly lost the trust of Wenger, and his playing time has been sharply reduced.

During the winter transfer period of this season, Arsenal loaned Arshavin to its home team Zenit St. Petersburg, and the future of the Tsar at the Emirates Stadium was also overshadowed.

However, it is gratifying that Ashavin, who returned to his hometown, was reborn. He quickly became an important offensive hub in the team's frontcourt and helped the team win the Russian Premier League championship trophy for the third time. More than honor, Arshavin regained his state and self-confidence.

Although Arsenal has not made a clear statement about Arshavin's stay next season, the "Tsar" hopes to prove himself again at the Emirates Stadium.

Since Arshavin is willing to return to Arsenal, it now depends on how the Gunners respond. Arsenal has previously signed German international Podolski, which is seen as a sign for the abandonment of Arshavin.

Although Ashavin's bad state at the beginning of the season made Wenger and the fans extremely disappointed, is Wenger willing to give him another chance after seeing the bloody resurrected "Tsar" in the European Cup?

Considering that Boldoski may need an adaptation period when he first came to the Premier League, Arshavin, who is in excellent condition, is worth tens of millions of reinforcements. If the Russian captain can continue to contribute his excellent performance in this European Cup, Arsenal will welcome back to the "Tsar" and set up a line for his attack line. What's wrong with Daoshuang Insurance?

After the first two games of Group A, Belgium unexpectedly reached a 1:1 draw with the host Poland. The Belgians should be satisfied with this result. If it weren't for bad luck, the Polish team may even have won a big victory in the game.

Russia's 4:1 victory over the Czech Republic is a little surprising. From this game, it is not difficult to see that the Eastern European iron riders that once shocked Europe have really begun to decline. After the golden generation withdrew from the historical stage, the subsequent talent reserve of Czech football has not been able to keep up at all. With such a result, it is impossible to say that Material.

In the next two rounds, all four teams still have the hope of qualifying, and Belgium, as the defending champion, must make changes if they don't want to return home after the group stage.

At least like the first game, the situation of making Degan a cold bench for the whole game will never happen again.

The outside media and fans are worried about Belgium at this moment. They don't know what's going on inside the Belgian team. Before the start of the next game, all the players and coaches have been banned by the Football Association. When the second round of the group stage starts, they will surprise everyone.
