King of Competition

Chapter 238 Rivaldo

Soon, the game started again.

Since the goal just now, Don Jack has gradually found that his way of playing football is not right. Throughout the game, Jack Don has been trying to find opportunities near the penalty area, but in fact, he is more passively waiting for the ball to pass. He doesn't know much about the meaning of center, but as the top player in the team, it must be right to keep scoring goals.

But now, the problem is that Olympiacos's defense is very tight, and he rarely has a chance.

Although Don Jack's tactical awareness is very low, and there is a big gap between him and regular professional players at least in theory, he also understands the meaning of some centers. The center in modern football is not only for scoring goals. In fact, the significance of this position is more to attract defensive players and create opportunities for teammates.

There are many teams, which also play the formation of a single center, and these centers have a poor number of goals in the whole game, and the goal is far away, but the coach will not replace them, which is mainly a tactical significance.

The so-called tactical meaning means that if there is a center in the team, then the other side will definitely divide some defensive force to intercept, and then other teammates will definitely have more.

Jack Don has always defined himself as a goal scorer, and he has scored a lot of goals, but now that he finds it difficult to get it, his mind begins to live. On the football field, the goal is very ** and heart-wrare. Don Jack likes that feeling very much, but between the goal and victory, he will definitely choose to win.

What's more, if Liverpool wants to score the second goal like this, it will take a lot of luck.

Jack Don's mind is a little alive.

In the next game, when his teammates got the ball to attack, Don Jack began to try to constantly hit Olympiacos's penalty area from outside the penalty area. Running back and forth made Olympiacos' defenders extremely nervous. They were afraid that the brunette boy would run out of the vacancy, so they had to follow closely. Live with him.

In fact, there is only one Olympiacos player defending Don Jack, but at this time, two players have been following him, and other Olympiakos players are also paying attention to Don Jack at any time. In this way, their defensive pressure can be imagined.

In modern football, it is impossible for a team as a whole to really divide two players to defend the other side, because in that case, their formation will become a mess and the attack will not be able to fight at all. Even if the two players defend, they must control the time. Only when they focus on defense, there will be a real two-person defense. This requires a very high personal quality of the players. Often, only those players at the main level of the Premier League can calmly judge the situation on the court, and Olympiacos players obviously do not have this quality. After the two defended Don Jack, they found that they could not attack.

Not only in attack, but also in defense, there are also continuous loopholes. In defense, the team's formation is even more messy, which allows Liverpool to find more opportunities.

The current scene is obviously very unfavorable to Olympiacos.

The head coach of Olympiacos off the court can't do much. He is also afraid that the brunette boy will score again. If he relax his defense, then Olympiacos's backcourt will be dangerous... But it's also dangerous now, but he still can't help it. The strength gap between the two teams is too big, and Olympiacos players seem very passive in defense.

"Let's change!"

The head coach of Olympiacos sighed in his heart and asked Rivaldo to warm up.

Finally appeared!

The real protagonist only plays at the last time, which seems to be very commensurate with Rivaldo. The former World Footballer has spent most of his time on the bench, and now he is finally ready to play. Seeing Rivaldo warming up, the Greek fans of the whole player also cheered. In the team, Rivaldo must be the biggest star.

※※※

On April 19, 1972, in the Encruzida Hospital in the port city of Recii in northeastern Brazil, Little Rivaldo fell to the ground with a cry. At the age of six, Rivaldo went to primary school, but it didn't take long for Rivaldo to find that school was not as "fun" as he thought. The only thing he was interested in was to kick a broken ball with a large group of classmates after school.

This is the beginning of Rivaldo's contact with football.

Until the age of 13, Rivaldo finally realized his dream of playing football. With his genius, he became a member of the Santa Cruz youth football team. There, Rivaldo received formal and systematic training, laying a solid foundation for his future fame. After playing for two seasons for the Santa Cruz junior football team, at the age of 16, Rivaldo came to the youth team of the famous St. Paul Club.

After coming to the São Paulo youth team, Rivaldo's first game was against the "old club" Santa Cruz youth team. Because Rivaldo's transfer procedures were not handled in time, he was still a member of the Santa Cruz team at that time, so after the game, his "old club" sued Rivaldo for violating the rules, which not only caused him to be banned, but also sent back to Santa Cruz.

Sixteen-year-old Rivaldo suffered a heavier blow: his father was killed in a traffic accident.

Once, Rivaldo once wanted to give up football and find a job to support his family. But his mother firmly opposed it because she knew that playing football was Rivaldo's dream. She often inspires Rivaldo: "Don't disappoint your father, you will definitely become a star on the court!"

Rivaldo did not disappoint his parents. He ran tirelessly on the court and never was lazy. He never hurts people on the court and rarely eats yellow cards. He is very generous and dedicated to creating opportunities for his teammates. Sometimes he also attacks the city. Gradually, he became famous all over the world, shocked all of Brazil and became a truly comprehensive player.

After the Atlanta Olympics, Rivaldo landed on the European continent and first transferred to La Coruña, Spain. In Spain, he used his excellent performance to help the team break one record after another and win the third place in the league. In 1997, the wealthy Barcelona team called Rivaldo under his command and signed a six-year contract in one go, with liquidated damages as high as the unprecedented $92 million.

In his first season with Barcelona, Rivaldo scored 19 goals and won the title of Best Foreign Aid in the Spanish League that year. In the 1998-1999 season, Barcelona won the championship again, and Rivaldo ranked second in the scorer list. In the 1998 World Cup, Rivaldo fully showed his star demeanor and made great contributions to Brazil's runner-up. In the 1999 America's Cup, Rivaldo shined brilliantly and conquered fans all over the world.

The 2002 World Cup between Korea and Japan was the peak of Rivaldo. It played a good game of a single-ridingjiu zhu in many games. In the game against England, he equalized a goal. In the final, an angry shot forced Cain to help Ronaldo make up for the first goal. After that, a clever leak allowed Ronaldo to win. The excellent single knife helped Brazil lock in the victory 2:0. Rivaldo, who scored five goals and had four assists in this World Cup, is considered to be the key figure for Brazil to win the championship.

Now, the key figure in the World Cup has come to Olympiacos and become Liverpool's opponent.

Rivaldo came on the court, and all Liverpool players paid attention to him. Although Rivaldo is 33 years old, his achievements far exceed that of every player in Liverpool, even Gerrard is no exception. Compared with Rivaldo, Gerrard is really a rookie on the football field.
