King of Competition

Chapter 141 Opening

On August 15, the White Hart Lane Stadium in the north of London, the capital of the United Kingdom, was overcrowded. The flow of people at the first, second and third gates of the stadium, which were open, was still full of shouts and noises everywhere, and the atmosphere of enthusiasm was all over the stadium.

In such a warm atmosphere, white has become the mainstream.

Tottenham Hotspur is the 'white lily'. The color of their historical heritage is white. Every Tottenham Hotspur fan wears a white jersey and comes to the White Hart Lane Stadium to cheer for the home team.

In these dazzling white waves, there is also a group of red condensed on the west stands of the stadium. These are Liverpool fans who come with the team. Although the number of fans cannot be compared with the home team Tottenham Hotspur, these reds look from a high place, but under the white embellishment, like the red flowers of green leaves, which is more gorgeous...

Of course, this is the idea of Liverpool supporters.

In the eyes of Tottenham supporters, these reds are not red flowers, but the turbidity of the White Deer Lane Stadium. They can't wait to clean up all these reds and return the White Deer Lane Stadium with purity and tranquility.

As a result, the idle fans of both sides began to scold each other, which is a unique pre-match opera performance in England...

When Liverpool players came out of the player channel, they saw this scene, but as they came out, both sides tacitly stopped cursing and began to shout the names of each player.

"Kanute!!"

"Hula~~~~~~"

"Jermein-Colin-" The commentator raised his voice.

Fans immediately followed: "--Differ--!!"

"Ledley-Kun-!!!!!!"

With the roar of the commentator at the scene, the Tottenham fans shouted with the greatest excitement: "Jin--!!!"

......

Listening to the shouts of these fans, you will know which of these Tottenham Hotspur players is more popular. What makes Don Jack pay attention to is the sharp-headed Simon. Davis is also very popular. Maybe this guy is naturally different and has the temperament of attracting fans. In short, it's Simon's turn. At Davis, the cheers of Tottenham fans were even higher than that of Canute.

They are not as good as Tottenham's defender Ledley. Kim, this is Tottenham Hotspur's big star!

Ledley. Kim, who is only 25 years old this year, is a big black man born in London, and this guy is still a defender, but he joined the England national team as early as 20 years old.

In the England team, King is a substitute and rotation player in the defense line. He mainly plays as a central defender and can also make guest appearances as a defensive midfielder. Since he became a professional player, he has been playing for Tottenham Hotspur since 1998, that is.

With such a background, you can imagine his popularity in Tottenham Hotspur!

Ledley. Gold is almost labeled as Tottenham Hotspur, and he is almost equivalent to Gerrard of Liverpool.

This doesn't seem to have anything to do with Liverpool fans. It's obvious that they are not the protagonists today. There are about 2,000 Liverpool fans present. It's not that there are too few Liverpool fans, but that White Hart Lane Stadium only sells so many tickets to Liverpool supporters. In England, the fans of each team are clear. If those fan organizations want to buy a ticket, they must register which team's supporters, which can be reasonable. Assign seats.

It is almost impossible to buy more tickets in troubled waters. If a Liverpool person wants to buy tickets for Tottenham's fans, he must go through a lot of formalities and audits. This is to prevent uncontrolled situations. Such a strict ticket system Only in this way can we effectively prevent violence on the court.

This is also one aspect that the English football system is better than other leagues, including the Bundesliga.

However, even if the number of people is relatively small, Liverpool fans are obviously not willing to be suppressed. Without the guidance of commentators, they crazily shouted the name of 'Steven-Gerard-', and some fans also shouted the names of other fans they like, although this voice has long been covered by the voices of Tottenham fans. Yes, but Liverpool fans still enjoy it.

Sitting on the bench and watching the 'shouting' contest of the two pairs of fans before the game, Don Jack was also slightly moved. For the first time, he felt that he was right to come to Liverpool, just because the fans here were even crazier!

"Jack, watch the game and pay attention to the team's attack." Benitez, who had been indifferent next to him, whispered to Don Jack.

Jack Don was slightly moved: "I will, Mr. Coach!"

"Call BOSS!"

Jack Don smiled and said, "Boss!"

Benitez shook his head, raised his legs again, and looked at the game silently. At this time, the two teams were ready to kick off.

※※※"Bi..."

With the whistle of the referee, the first game of the Premier League finally began. The first to kick off was Tottenham Hotspur, Frederick. Canute kicked the ball to Defoe next to him and ran forward first. He was very fast. In a blink of an eye, he reached the Liverpool guard line and stood near the penalty area waiting for the opportunity. Liverpool had to separate a defender to defend him.

For Kanute, Benitez attached great importance to the arrangement of tactics before the game. In this season, with the change of Tottenham's lineup, Canute and Divford have become the absolute main force of the team. His own strength is also very strong. He scored nine goals for Tottenham Hotspur in his 24 appearances last season.

When Kanute stood near the penalty area line, Tottenham's attack also came to his face.

In English football, the first thing most people think of when it comes to attack is Arsenal. It advocates that attack is the characteristic of Arsenal, but in fact, English fans know that Arsenal's sworn enemy Tottenham is the team that really takes offense as the traditional team. No matter which coach comes to Tottenham, it will not change the style of the fans. Because that will offend all Tottenham fans.

Tottenham's attack speed is very fast. They mainly focus on short passes and penetration, supplemented by breakthroughs on the side and long passes in the middle. Such offensive methods are diversified, and few fans can take care of it. However, the time to come to Santini is still too short, and Tottenham's offensive cooperation is obviously a little blocked.

But even so, Liverpool's defense was still in a hurry by Tottenham, and repeated mistakes appeared frequently. Benitez frowned on the sidelines.

Benitez's leading style is more stable, and his tactics are also based on stability. The most important thing is the midfield line. Under Benitez's tactical style, as long as Liverpool occupies the midfield, the team can always be in the advantage. On the contrary, the team is not easy to play.

However, the game lasted for five minutes. Liverpool failed to stabilize the team's formation for a long time and has been in a hurry. Both times, they were almost directly broken by Tottenham Hotspur. Fortunately, Gerrard's defense was behind and had stood in the penalty area. Once even Use your body to block the ball, so that the game has not been rewritten until now.

Finally in the fifth minute, Liverpool, under the command of Gerard, slowly stabilized their position and began to look for a counterattack.

In this game, Benitez arranged the partner of Cise and Baroche on the front line. After Owen left, because Don Jack was 'hiding' by Benitez for half a month, and because Don Jack only scored one goal in the warm-up match, there was no news after that. Most of the media noticed Cice, and he had become popular. The focus of attention.

On the other two fronts, the new Espanyol Josemi, who joined the team, served as the right-back and was pushed to the forward line by Fennan, who occupied the position. The central defender is still the steady Haipia and Jamie. Carragher, a tower-like central defender, has always been a headache for all Premier League teams, and the other full-back is Reese, Reese and John. Arne. Riese, as early as 2001, played for Liverpool. He is a famous 'knife guard' in England. This guy is an all-round full-rounder and known as the "Norwegian heavy gunner", which shows his outstanding heavy artillery long-range shooting skills and good physical fitness. In fact, when it comes to long-range shooting in Liverpool, Gerrard is the first It's a well-deserved, but when it comes to the long-range shot with his left foot, Riser won't allow it.

Not only that, Riese's cross and shot are also excellent, so his left-back position is so stable. In Liverpool, it is too difficult to emphasize Riise's position. His strength is the guarantee of everything.

In addition to the defender line, the midfield line is slightly weaker. In addition to Gerrard and Finnan, the other two players are Harry. Cowell and veteran Ditmar. Harman, the midfielder composed of four players, is obviously weaker than Liverpool's guard line.

Media reporters and fans also hold the same view. In public analysis, Liverpool's guard line is the strongest, followed by the midfield line, that is to say, the weakest is the front line... The main reason is that Owen left.

"Look, who else is on the front line of Liverpool now? Even the little guy Barosh is going to become the main force... God~~~~!!!" This is what a London commentator said before the game. His name is Ballt, and this guy is a purebred Tottenham Hotspur fan.

It seems that Don Jack has been ignored again...

Now on the White Hart Lane court, Liverpool players answered Ballt with real performance, not as strong as Owen's front line!

Gerard made a long pass to the left, Finnan received the ball back and pulled off a defender, and immediately knocked back and handed the ball to Cise.

※※※

Gibriel. Cise!

When it comes to the name, all French fans will think of the unparalleled speed. Perhaps, in a short time, English fans will also have this impression. Now, all the fans present have seen this scene. After receiving the ball, Cicsai almost instantly started and shook off the Tottenham team around him, and went straight to Tottenham Hotspur. Go to the district!

"What is he going to do?" The on-site commentator exclaimed loudly!

Do you still need to ask?

Cise told everyone with his performance that he wanted to... Pass the ball... Yes, when everyone thought that Cise was going to shoot, he chose to pass the ball and thought about the cross from the right rear! Very accurate transmission!

Because Cise's straight with the ball, it became empty. Is it a mistake?

Of course not!

A red figure suddenly rushed out, and the refined short hair told everyone his name--Steven. Gerard!

"Dangerous!"

When Cise was carrying the ball, the commentator at the scene was not so excited, which showed Gerrard's position in the hearts of the fans.

However, it's too late.

Gerrard, who received the pass, waved his foot and shot directly and vigorously without hesitation. Under the eyes of the fans, the football quickly rushed to the goal of Tottenham Hotspur, where Tottenham goalkeeper Paul. Robinson has become the team's last barrier.

However, Robinson has made contributions!

Everyone felt that the situation of the ball was small, but Robinson reacted at the first time. He roared and punched and hit the ball directly into the high air. The football was hit, but it flew high in the sky and then fell out of the penalty area.

The danger seems to be over.

However, Tottenham Hotspur fans exclaimed again, because it was not the Tottenham Hotspur player who got the ball, but Milan. Barosh!

In England, the name Barroche is really strange, but the main reason is that the Liverpool jersey he wears makes Tottenham fans worried. What's more, at this time, Barrosh's position is on the front left side of the penalty area, and only one player behind him is defending.

A great opportunity!

All fans are worried about whether this 'little guy' will shoot directly.

Another big blow to the door. In that case, Robinson will feel deeply powerless even if he plays the super god.

To the satisfaction of Tottenham fans, Baroche did not choose to shoot, mainly because his angle was not very good, and there was a defender next to him. Baroche did not have the confidence to score a goal, so he took the ball to the left and stepped forward with his heel a little. The player next to him did not react, but the football had rolled back.

That's Jibril. Cise!

No one noticed when Cise arrived at this position, but he received the ball and volleyed directly!

At this time, Robinson stood back and watched the football fly into the goal. He could only symbolically hook it with his arm, but the football had already plunged into the net...
