Chapter 511 Fighting spirit is the key 2

In the sixth minute of the second half, Newcastle United widened the gap!

This situation was unexpected by Stuttgart, even the coach Allen. Fei didn't expect that his team would lose the goal so quickly. No matter how unsatisfactory the results of the Bundesliga are, Stuttgart is also a rich team. Unsatisfactory results are just a continuous victory, but most of the losses are narrow losses, not such a simple, such helplessness!

Now, Allen. Fei Cai really saw the demeanor of a strong European team!

Newcastle United is a strong European team. At Stuttgart's home court, they led by just two goals in the half. Such a score is really helpless. If the previous Stuttgart could still work hard under the whole team's efforts to win, but now Stuttgart seems twilight, a lot The players are no longer in the game. They are not afraid, but give up a little from the bottom of their hearts.

After the game restarted, although Stuttgart's offensive play is still very oppressive, senior fans know at a glance that many Stuttgart players begin to work hard, and the offensive attack is very forward, but they do not have the temperament of daring to fight. The offensive is only gorgeous, but not threatening.

Such an attack naturally reduces the defensive pressure on Newcastle United!

Don Jack didn't expect that Stuttgart's mental endurance is so poor. Will he give up the League Cup after only two goals!?

But look at Alan in the coach's seat. Fei's helpless performance also knows that this little-known coach's control over the team is really not good, and his coping ability is not high. Now he doesn't know what to do to help the team.

Maybe, Allen. Fei is complaining to God: Why did Stuttgart, who was swaying by the wind candle, choose such a powerful opponent as Newcastle United!

Losing the UEFA Cup is definitely worse for his handsome position!

The difference is that Mr. Sones, who was sitting on the sidelines, watched the game with a happy face. He was happy that his team could play such a score away, and even more pleased with the performance of the brunette boy on the field. He was still looking back on the goal just now: "It's really unexpected that Jack would choose to pass at that time. I I was shocked!"

The assistant coach turned his head and said to Sones, "Yes, Jack and everyone's cooperation is still very good. He has never been a player who only cares about himself. Yes, it has always been like this..." The last words seemed to comfort himself.

When it comes to Don Jack of Newcastle United, most fans will think of Jack Don's goals, one by one by their own ability, even the coaches, players, staff, etc. of Newcastle United are the same, but in fact, Don Jack is not 'unique' on the court, and most of the kind of balls are also a choice. If there is a chance, he will naturally choose to pass it to his teammates and give them a chance.

After all, football is a team sport, and Newcastle United's teammates are also strong.

On the field, Newcastle United got another chance. As a result, Don Jack, who was with the ball, was pulled to the ground by the opponent, and Newcastle United got a free kick 27 meters away from the goal.

The main penalty is a free kick. Don Jack must be the number one player of the team, but this time he gave the free throw opportunity to Janus, who has just scored. This is not a 'trust teammate', but Don Jack doesn't have much confidence to score in this position. The distance is a little far away, and the angle is not very good. The opponent has a personal corner. The degree is blocked.

Don Jack ran to the human wall to grab the point.

Jenas took a free throw, and Nzobia also came to pick it up. The Stuttgart player was a little uneasy about the ball, and the three players gathered around Don Jack to defend.

"They are like building a wall to defend!" The British Sky Sports commentator said humorously.

Unfortunately, such a defense, in the case of poor morale, can still play some effect on Don Jack. Jenas's pass rotated to find Don Jack's point. Under the 'wall' of the three people, Jack Don bumped into a person and jumped into the net with a take-head in the air.

This is the fourth goal scored by Newcastle United!

Don Jack's head cone also helped Newcastle United lock in the victory. In the situation of three goals behind, Stuttgart almost gave up the second round. They did not have the courage to continue to play hard. The main reason is that the other party was too hard. Originally, they occupied the situation, but it was not them who scored, Newcastle. The United kept scoring goals and hitting them in the hearts, making their morale plummet.

Plus coach Allen. Fee's inaction...

"We lost..."

In the situation of three goals behind, Stuttgart's last attack was more like a 'performance'. The powerlessness made many Stuttgart fans leave early. At the post-match press conference, Allen. Fei admitted the team's loss in his first sentence: "We lost, the other side is very strong, and we lost in experience..."

Such a statement can't be supported by reporters, and Stuttgart's European experience is no less than Newcastle United.

The English media want to hear Stuttgart's praise of Newcastle United, or Don Jack, which will give them more coverage, while the German media wants Allen. Fei gave a reasonable explanation for the loss, so that they could see that Stuttgart was still a team that could support the sky of the Bundesliga.

It's a pity that these two Allens. I can't even pay the fee.

After losing the game, it is impossible for him to pursue his opponent. That is the performance of the weak. As for the reasonable explanation? The reason for the loss is that the opponent is too strong. At least he thinks so. Even if he can't say so, what is there any reasonable explanation for the loss?

That's nonsense, Alan. Fei won't do that kind of thing!

The result is German media public opinion against Allen. Fei made a 'inhumane' attack, and the Kicker commented: "Aron. Fei's ability to lead the team is too poor. The game with Newcastle United has fully demonstrated this. He will be very nervous when playing against strong teams. Such a person is not suitable to be the head coach of the Bundesliga giants.

At the end of the article, they mentioned: "Aaron. The time for Fei to be fired is getting closer and closer.

Naturally, these have nothing to do with Newcastle United returning to Newcastle. After returning to Newcastle, the team only rested for an afternoon and devoted themselves to training the next day. For the whole of English football, the match between Newcastle United and Stuttgart was just one of many games, nothing at all. There are too many things worth reporting, and they also have more important reports on the Champions League match.

League Cup Newcastle United victory?

This is really not surprising. If Newcastle United loses, I'm afraid the current English media will report it.

From the perspective of everyone, Newcastle United is still a strong European team!

However, only the family knows about their own affairs. The current situation of Newcastle United is still worrying. The team's results have not slipped, but now the situation in the team is not optimistic, not to mention the injured players. Due to the intensive schedule, the team doctor tested that many players are in a 'sub-health' state. They There are some physical and physical problems. In this case, the possibility of injury is greatly increased.

During the morning training, Jenners had cramps, which worried head coach Soness.

But there is no way. Now the team's schedule is like this. There are only so many players in the team. Even if they make up, they still have to make a team. At present, the team's situation is not allowed to make too many mistakes in the league and the League Cup. So... Sones looked at the domestic cup - the FA Cup.

※※※

"Give up the FA Cup? Cole, this is impossible!"

In the club's office building, several directors and Sones were inside, beginning to discuss the possibility of giving up the FA Cup.

The English League Cup is a chicken rib for many teams. If you give up, you will give up. However, the FA Cup, which is meaningful for English football, can't be decided by Sones himself. Although he is the head coach, he still needs to discuss with the team's senior management in this regard.

As soon as Sones proposed to give up, someone stood up and quarreled, but Sones seemed very quiet. He sat on one side like a gentleman, holding a pile of documents in his hand to one person next to him. In the eyes of everyone, he said, "This is Dr. Chris's physical monitoring of all 25 players in the team at present. Except for Jack, Shearer and a few young players, there are more or less hidden dangers in the bodies of other players.

"I know it doesn't feel good to hear this news, but now we have no choice."

"It is very difficult for us to play all three events well in the league, the League Cup and the FA Cup. If we continue to play in the FA Cup, it is likely to have an impact on our league..."

Several board members have begun to check the report, and their faces are solemn, and they are obviously worried about the team.

After a period of time, after several people's discussion, most people agreed to Sones's proposal. The minority obeyed the majority, and the others objected ineffectively. Finally, Sones finally put down a problem.

On February 19, in the final 16 knockout match of the FA Cup, Newcastle United played against Southampton at home.

Southampton, formerly known as St. Mary's YMA, is a professional football club in Southampton, a port city of Hampshire in southeastern England. Fans nicknamed "Saints" was founded early. In November 1885, Southamp was established. In 1898, the team moved to Xiaogu Stadium as its home stadium. After more than 100 years of use, it was not until 2001 that it moved to St. Mary's Stadium.

They are one of the most successful clubs in the south of England.

However, today's Southampton team's performance is average, and people tend to pay more attention to his financial situation and changes in board members. But they have a unique measure that has won the support of a large number of fans - fans have the opportunity to question the board and the head coach every season.

This season, under the leadership of coach Hodel, Southampton's results in the Championship are not bad. They have reached the fifth place and are very likely to be promoted to the Premier League in one fell swoop. Now is the time for them to boost their morale.

Newcastle United met such an opponent in the FA Cup.

Of course, for Newcastle United, which has decided to give up the FA Cup, it doesn't matter what kind of opponent is. In this game, Soness sent a full substitute formation, and the real main player is only midfielder Scott. Parker alone, even the young player Nzobia did not play. Obviously, Sones wants Parker, who has just recovered from his injury, to adapt to the game. An opponent like Southampton is a good opportunity.

Some of the other players are put on the bench, while others are simply on holiday.

When the players of the two teams appeared and saw the starting lineup of Newcastle United, many Newcastle fans regretted buying tickets for this game. They thought they could see a good game, but the current situation is that the club does not seem to 'zheng' the opponent.

It is clear that Newcastle United is going to give up the FA Cup.

But...

Cups are sometimes not something you can give up if you want to give up. This is what Newcastle United is facing now. Southampton is currently working hard to upgrade to the Premier League, and coach Hoddle also wants to give up the Cup and specialize in the Championship, so that they can be promoted to the Premier League next season.

The situation in Southampton is different from that of Newcastle United.

Newcastle United is a quasi-tycoon club. Even if the financial situation is not good this season, it will not care about the small income of the FA Cup. Southampton is different. Their financial situation has always been poor. As a Championship team, the income from the Cup is also included. Naturally, giving up the FA Cup will reduce the income, and the board of directors will not agree.

But an opponent like Newcastle United brings Hodel the opportunity to give up the FA Cup!

Think about it, when a Championship team meets a Premier League champion team... There seems to be no suspense in this game, so Southampton has also sent a substitute in this game.

It was long after the start of the game that Sones discovered this.

In fact, for a British Championship opponent, Newcastle United is not very good at studying the opponent's lineup at all. What's more, Sones intended to give up the game, so he didn't have to pay attention to his opponent. As a result, there was a strange thing on the court: both coaches planned to give up the game.

But the players don't give up!

The players who can start the game are all difficult to have a chance to start at ordinary times. Naturally, they redouble their efforts to get the favor of the head coach with their performance. As a result, the game between the two substitute teams is vigorous and vigorous, with a great momentum to fight to the death, a full-replace FA Cup, even more than the normal Premier League. Hot!

The live fans watched it with relish!

In the end, Newcastle United's substitute team in the Premier League is better, Scott. The goal of Parker and striker Clark gave Newcastle United a two-goal lead and finally defeated Southampton 2-0.

At the end of the game, Sones's feeling was very contradictory...

He should be happy to win, but the victory that he wanted to lose is a little contradictory. The team won, and he can't blame the team for working too hard... There was no reason for this, and Southampton coach Hodel, who lost, also had a smile on his face. He seemed to laugh to the end... But he can't laugh when he loses.

The same contradictory mood between the two may bring mutual pity. At the end of the post-match press conference, the two also gave a warm hug, which was understood by the Southampton media as "Hoddle's ability has been recognized by Sones" or "Southampton's real The force has been recognized by Newcastle United."

But in fact, the two have nothing to do with each other.
