Chapter 514 Harvest Season
After the brief summary of Jack Don, this special interview ended perfectly. Although there are some places in the middle where some people in charge of the TV station have objections, Jack Tang's last speech made up for this point. The interview process was very positive and everyone was very satisfied.
The TV station has won ratings, and Jack Don has promoted his reputation in China.
The Chinese nation wants to pay attention to bloodline. The friendship of compatriots makes many fans accept Jack Tang from the bottom of their hearts. They are the most powerful supporters. This is the intertwined friendship in the blood and the love for football, which makes many people feel that Jack Tang is closer than those big European stars.
In the East, basketball has Yao Ming, and football has Li Tanglong.
Although Jack Don does not have Chinese nationality, let alone joined the Chinese national men's football team, this does not hinder his problems in the hearts of Chinese fans. Perhaps, the main reason is that Chinese football makes the fans too disappointed. At least half of the fans have a blessing attitude that Don Jack chose the England team.
This special interview of Oriental TV was very successful. Jack Don's close smile left a great impression on the fans. After the program, more people learned about Jack Don, including many non-fans, and they also remembered Jack Don's name.
"In Britain, there is a Chinese who plays football very well..." This has almost become common sense.
For Don Jack, the interview is only a small part of life, and the game life is the top priority. On the third day of the special interview, at St. James Park in Newcastle, they ushered in Stuttgart, which is the second round of the two teams in the League Cup knockout.
The last time, Newcastle United beat Stuttgart by three goals. When he came to St. James' Park, Stuttgart came with the thought of not succeeding and becoming a benevolent... Or it can be said to be blood. It's up to God to win or lose.
It is unclear whether God exists or not, but Stuttgart is obviously not blessed by God.
Most people think so, Stuttgart eliminated Newcastle United? I'm afraid that even if God blesss them, they will have no chance.
In order to cut off some of Stuttgart's thoughts, coach Sones played all the main lineup in this game. Scott, who has just recovered from injury. Parker led the midfield, and Janus and Don Jack paired up with double forwards. Ameoby and Nzobia joined hands on the side. As soon as Newcastle United's offensive formation appeared, it won the applause of all Newcastle United fans.
In the last game, Stuttgart suppressed Newcastle United. When they came to Newcastle United's territory, they were going to find the field.
Sure enough, as everyone imagined, not long after the opening, Stuttgart was a little weak. The last time with the advantage of the game at home, he couldn't play at all when he got to St. James's Park. In the cheer of 50,000 Newcastle United fans, Newcastle United played 12% of their strength. In the first seven minutes, Don Jack's pass from the left side gave Janus in the middle a chance. He used a The foot shot knocked open the door of Stuttgart.
The game may be over here.
Stuttgart wants to advance, at least four goals in St. James' Park, but look at the current situation... It's almost impossible, so what's the hope of the game?
I'm afraid even their players think so.
So after a first half, the coach Allen. Fei finally gave up the game, and fighting with Newcastle United is unfavorable to Stuttgart. He must have lost the UEFA Cup. Playing several Bundesliga games in China may help his coaching position.
As a result, the two teams replaced three main players in the second half. Newcastle United's three consecutive players, Don Jack, Nzobia and Jenas, were replaced, and several 'thousand-year substitutes' were given the opportunity to play.
In the end, the game ended 2-0. With the advantage of the last round, Newcastle United eliminated Stuttgart by a score of 6 to 3 to advance to the next round of the League Cup.
At the end of the League Cup, the team returned to the league, and they still have to face the opponents of the league.
In the 27th round of the English Premier League, Newcastle United's opponent is Everton, who has been performing poorly and is about to enter the quagmire of relegation. Last season, he also said that Everton, who will compete with Liverpool this season, is much worse than Liverpool. Liverpool just won Manchester United in the FA Cup in the middle of the week. The Everton Cup was all eliminated, and if the league loses again, it will fall into the relegation zone.
And they caught up with Newcastle United.
So after the League Cup, Don Jack broke out again in the Premier League. The three loud goals in the first half made Everton's team find a deep sense of powerlessness. They seemed to have seen the team struggling in the Champions League next year, and despair spread to the whole team.
Losing is inevitable.
After the game, Everton's coach even refused to be interviewed by reporters. He really had nothing to say. Soness did a good performance. Winning made Newcastle United regain the feeling of the league. Recently, Scott. Parker's comeback, and Michael. Owen's phased appearance on the training ground made Sones exhale.
Everything is optimistic, but it's a pity that Chelsea also won. They defeated Portsmouth 2-0 at Stamford Bridge. There is nothing to report. The English media is more concerned about the Champions League match just yesterday. Chelsea also lost to Barcelona at home, and Barcelona's only goal is still a The penalty kick - the penalty kick of genius Messi.
The more important reason is that this penalty is quite controversial!
"That boy's acting is really good!" After the Battle of Chelsea Barcelona, Mourinho said this to the Argentine genius Messi. Blues coach Mourinho believed that the red card earned by Messi with "performance" defeated Chelsea. The spread of this to Spain made Messi furious, and the Argentines directly fought back: Mourinho didn't know what it was, and he should shut up.
Messi said angrily, "Mourinho likes to 'mix', so I'm not surprised at all what he said. I didn't care what he said, because everyone saw a scene on the court: I got the ball on the bottom line and left Robben behind. At that time, Orno maliciously hit me. Fortunately, I saw it at that time, so I jumped up and avoided it. If he doesn't jump, he is likely to be seriously injured by him. He couldn't tackle the ball at all. Obviously, he came to me. So the referee showed him a red card directly." I also want to remind Mourinho that just a few minutes before this foul, Orno had another serious foul on me. He showed his spikes and shoveled over me, but the referee didn't see it.
Barcelona players also support Messi's statement.
Deko said, "I won't care what Mourinho said. But I know that Messi didn't act. It was the ugliest foul I've ever seen, and even kicked Messi in the leg. Captain Pujol also said, "Mourinho should think about what he really wants. Orno's foul is very clear. Even Messi's father stood up and joined the war of words. He said that his son was by no means a fake fall.
Barba's side has strong firepower...
But for Chelsea, Olno will not be able to play in the Nou Camp match 11 days later, which is very unfavorable. Perhaps Mourinho can only expect Garas to come back in time to solve the defensive problem on the left side.
Compared with the tit-for-tat after the game, the calm Mourinho changed his tone when talking about this red card. I am proud of the performance of the players and the support of the fans. I prefer to go to Camp Nou with a positive attitude. Red card? You also saw (the situation at that time), so go and talk about it. If I send something, I will be banned again.
"The fact is that we have to fight against 11 opponents with 10 people. Everything has changed. We can't press forward. One of the wings is broken, and the defense is one less. You can only rely on fighting spirit."
Compared with Barcelona's strong lineup, Mourinho seems to have only one person, but his firepower alone is not weaker than that of Barcelona. He said angrily that he would consider letting Chelsea B go to Camp Nou.
Facing the reporters on the stage, Mourinho said, "You answer me a question first. If it's always such a game, does it make sense for us to go to Camp Nou to fight with all our strength? If not, I will send Team B over and let the main players focus on the league and the FA Cup. His intention is obviously to fight with the main force and Newcastle United, but this word makes everyone ashamed... Is there a substitute team in the Champions League final? If Chelsea does this, it is simply an insult to the Champions League and a question of UEFA's principle of fairness and justice.
Although this is just a joke, it still attracts great attention from UEFA. UEFA never wants to see a Chelsea reserve team standing in Camp Nou.
At the press conference, the UEFA press officer immediately emphasized Mourinho's words: "The team must send the strongest team to the game under any circumstances, otherwise we will punish the club and the coach."
Despite this, UEFA's remarks against Chelsea are circulating in the European media.
This is not all gossip. What's more is that Chelsea's frequent actions in the transfer market have affected the normal order of European football. Many UEFA officials are unwilling to see that situation. If this situation continues, the business process of European football will develop rapidly and football will become more impure.
At this time, in the middle and late seasons of the season, many teams have also ushered in the harvest season.
Manchester United!
This name, which is about to fade out of the eyes of English fans, has reappeared in the eyes of many media.
This season, the teams that have stirred up England are undoubtedly Chelsea and Newcastle United. The other teams in the league seem to be uncompetitive. Manchester United and Arsenal, two traditional strong teams and favorite to win the championship, have plummeted in the league, which cannot be compared with the top two. In the vision of natural media, it is more Newcastle United and Chelsea are the most common.
But at the end of February, Manchester United returned to public view because they won the first championship of English football - the League Cup.
This season, due to the renovation of the Wembley Stadium, the English League Cup final is contested at the Millennium Stadium in Wales. In the end, Manchester United defeated Wigan Athletic 4-2 and won the League Cup.
In the game, striker Rooney scored twice, Saha and C. Ronaldo has scored one goal each. It is worth mentioning that this is the only championship Manchester United has won in the past two seasons, and it is also the second time that Manchester United has won the championship since 1992.
Before the game, the Manchester United club said that they hoped to beat Wigan Athletic to avoid the embarrassment of losing nothing for the second consecutive season.
In this game, the Dutch striker Van Nistelrooy, who scored 22 goals in the season, was placed on the bench by Ferguson. Rooney partnered with Saha, and O'Shea replaced Smith in the midfield with Giggs, Park Ji-sung and C. Ronaldo is responsible for the flanks. On the defensive line, two new players, Vidic and Evra, can only find a place on the bench.
Similarly, the promoted Mavegan Athletic also hopes to win the League Cup to qualify for the League Cup next season.
However, their strength is not appropriate, and there is still a certain gap with Manchester United. In a decisive game, there is a lot of pressure on the young team of Wigan Athletic. The lack of competition experience makes their performance only average. As a result, Manchester United easily scored four goals and won without any suspense. After winning the championship, Manchester United's team looked very calm. The players shook hands and hugged each other, and Ferguson also walked off the field to celebrate with the players.
Every Manchester United player showed a smile. Except for the frustrated Van Nistelrooy, the Dutchman failed to play, and he left early alone.
Manchester United won the League Cup, and the result was not bad.
With the Champions Cup and FA Cup out one after another, and the Premier League is almost hopeless to catch up with Chelsea, the Red Devils struggled to keep the only championship honor. But there is a special championship story in every Gold Cup. At this year's Cardiff Millennium Stadium, people accidentally saw a depressed face in the cheering Manchester United team. Because they failed to play in this final game, because of the Dutchman Van Nisfauna, the number one killer of Manchester United's active players left early alone.
Van Nistelrooy, Manchester United's first striker for several years in a row, is full of his face. After Manchester United won the championship, the media is obviously more concerned about this topic, "Why didn't Van Nistelrooy play?"
Ferguson explained: "Saha should start because he has scored five goals in the League Cup before. After fully recovering from his injury, he scored ten goals in thirteen games and was in good condition. We should trust him.
I believe that Saha means giving up Fannie the situation. For the Dutch, such an experience is really rare. Moreover, he is arranged to sit on the bench in the championship battle. Van Niss van Nim's mood can be imagined.
"He looks normal in the locker room, and it is natural to contact his teammates. He was disappointed, but he was just disappointed. This is football. I had the same experience. It was abandoned in the 1965 Cup final, and that's what happened. Life is not all good.
Faunny is frustrated, and of course some people are proud.
The Frenchman Saha, who replaced Van Nistelroor, contributed a goal and two assists in the game.
When receiving the trophy, Saha said excitedly, "We have been looking forward to the championship trophy. This process is difficult, but it's great to win the final victory."
The feeling of winning the championship is very good, but more media are not moved. Don Jack just smiled when he saw Manchester United winning the League Cup. In an interview with the media, Jack Don said in response to Manchester United's victory: "This has nothing to do with us. We gave up the League Cup..."
This statement is obviously disdainful of the League Cup.
The same is true. There is a saying in English football that the cup championship is meaningless and worthless.
The same is true for the club. The League, the League Cup and even the FA Cup are much more important than the League Cup. In order to play fewer games, Sonets gave up the League Cup early, otherwise it would be no problem for Newcastle United to enter the quarterfinals. Similarly, Chelsea in London also gave up the League Cup early, Murray Neo's team also disdains the League Cup. Manchester United has won nothing this season, so they want to win the League Cup. For Chelsea and Newcastle United, within the range of England, the only thing they are fighting for now is the league championship, which is the real honor.
By the way, maybe we can add an FA Cup champion now!
However, the old Jazz is obviously dissatisfied with this situation. He always has something to say: "This is not a consolation award." The Lord said, "The bottom of the form
It is very important for Manchester United to prove that they can win the championship." There are always many people in the world who are jealous of others. A few years ago, they said that we called the League Cup a 'meaningless' cup. In fact, we never said that. ( Rumor) It's all rubbish. The final is the final battle, and the champion is everyone's hope. The fans of the two teams set the atmosphere for the game, and they set up a perfect platform for the final.
But then Ferguson avoided talking about this topic, and he began to discuss the game. Manchester United led their opponents 1-0 at the end of the first half. Ferguson revealed that he asked the players to continue to attack in the locker room. At halftime, I told the players not to stop and continue to create opportunities to score the second goal, which may be the decisive goal, but the first opportunity in the second half came from Wigan. Van der Sar made a great save and he took Makara's shot out. The last two goals came quickly. By that time, the game would have belonged to Manchester United.
Ferguson also paid tribute to his opponent. Wigan played well. They created some good opportunities, but Manchester United's defense is well organized.
Captain Gary. Neville showed the demeanor of a general. On this crazy night, Neville did not forget Smith, who suffered a serious injury with a broken leg not long ago. Everyone was in a bad mood last week because Smith was seriously injured. He can't come to the field today, but we will give him the victory.
Rooney also said, "It's wonderful. I'm very happy to score two goals. I didn't score. I believe my teammates will do this. The winner is still Manchester United.
Ferdinand, who recovered from injury before the war, was very quiet and rarely rushed to the opponent's position to participate in the attack, but after winning, he was no less happy than others. It feels great. This is a day for Manchester United. Like Neville, Ferdinand also mentioned Smith, "Each of us misses Smith and hopes that he will recover soon." Manchester United lost to Arsenal in the FA Cup final last season, which also made the Red Devils endure the embarrassment of not having the championship for a long time. Ferdinand said it took him a long time to get out of the blow of the FA Cup loss. It took a long time to recover, and now I have finally won the medal. I'm very happy and hope that there will be more and more medals.
The League Cup is a chicken rib, but winning the League Cup is also an honor. Manchester United has a reason to be happy. At the same time, their sworn match, Arsenal, which did not perform well in the league this season, also achieved well in Europe. They just played at the Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid, Spain. He defeated the home team Real Madrid.
A small victory of 1 to 0, the victory in the away game, and the results are very good.
Unfortunately, Arsenal lost again in the league. They lost 1-0 at home to Blackburn, who came to challenge. As a result, the league ranking fell to seventh place. This ranking may be a problem for them to enter the League Cup next year. The new Emirates Stadium is about to drag down Arsenal's finances, and the poor financial situation has affected their performance. Now that the results are in a mess, the finances will definitely be affected. Maybe Arsenal will no longer have the strength to compete for the league championship next year.
But they can still look forward to the results of the European game now, if Arsenal can win a Champions League...
The first European championship trophy in history...
It is very **, which may solve all the problems of Arsenal. "I will lead the team to get close to the championship, but the most important thing in front of me is to reach the semi-finals." Needless to say, Real Madrid is definitely the first stubborn stone on Arsenal's way to win the championship. Although it defeated the opponent 1-0 in the last round, but Real Madrid's strength, even at home, it takes a lot of time for Arsenal to advance. If they don't pay attention to their opponents, they are likely to be disappointed after being proud.
