Chapter 543 League Champion 4
In the 35th round of the Premier League, Newcastle United's opponent is Sunderland.
When the two teams were playing in the bright ball game, there were not many local fans in the audience, and the number of Newcastle fans who came to Sunderland with the team was no less than that of the local fans. More importantly, the morale gap between the fans of the two teams was too big. Newcastle fans kept cheering for the team as the home team. The Sunderland fans all look like "neutral" fans. Whether they are wonderful on the court or are about to be scored by their opponents, their expressions are very indifferent, and there is a trace of sadness in indifference---
Sunderland has been downgraded ahead of schedule!
The mood of Sunderland fans who learned the news can be imagined. Although many people have long expected the team's relegation, the celebration of last season's promotion is still vivid. In a blink of an eye, a season has passed, and the promotion has become relegated. Such a gap makes no one happy.
As for this game!?
Perhaps most Sunderland fans now come to see English stars such as Don Jack and Owen. They are extremely disappointed with Sunderland's game. Whether they lose or win, the team will be relegated to the Championship. So what is the meaning of the result of the game for Sunderland?
However, for Newcastle United, the victory is still very meaningful, which means that they can quickly reach the league championship trophy. In comparison, the morale gap between the two teams is too big. Newcastle United players are playing hard. Sunderland's players are a little confused, and the game seems to be out of rules. Many of these players have begun to consider staying next season.
With such a mentality and strength gap, you can imagine what the game looks like.
Although the football match is unpredictable, the probability of an accident is very small when the strength gap is too large. In fact, there are few reporters who came to the scene of this game. Most media do not think that Sunderland has the ability to hinder Newcastle United's victory, so there is only one that affects the team's victory. Factor: Chelsea's victory or defeat!
If Chelsea loses, Newcastle United will be able to win the league championship three rounds ahead of schedule at the end of the game, and on the contrary, it will have to wait until the next round.
For that opportunity, the officials of the FA came to the scene with the championship trophy.
Although the opportunities are very slim, the work of the FA is good. The trophies of the English League have always been awarded directly with results. This has been implemented since the establishment of the Premier League. There has never been a mistake. As long as a team has the opportunity to get the trophy, the FA will come to the scene with the trophy.
Desp> Despite this, there are still few reporters who come.
It's not that they don't want to witness this historical moment, but that although most media don't believe that Sunderland can hinder Newcastle United, they also don't believe that the outrageous Everton with poor performance can beat Chelsea, and the opportunity is too slim.
As many fans who follow the game imagined, Newcastle United won a light victory at the Stadium. With the goals scored by Don Jack, Owen and Janus, Newcastle United defeated Sunderland with three goals. There was nothing to say about the game. When the game was over, the bad news was different. In the next game, the result was also guessed by everyone. Chelsea easily defeated Everton, who came to challenge, with three goals at home.
Both teams have won, and the gap between points is still eight points, which somewhat disappointed Newcastle fans. They can't wait to see the team win the league championship.
However, for the current Newcastle United, it only takes one point in three games to ensure the championship. Head coach Sonnes doesn't care about Chelsea. "We will continue to train tomorrow, but now we only have the UEFA Cup in our eyes!" After the game, Sones said to the reporter.
From his words, we can hear the excitement that the league championship is already in the bag, and Sones is already thinking about the prospect of the League Cup championship.
The same is true for Newcastle United players. The team will win the league championship. This is a century-old moment, but that is for fans. As players, they can't just celebrate. This season is not over yet, and they still have a few games to play.
And other teams in England can only compete for the second-level championship, such as the FA Cup!
Newcastle United gave up the FA Cup, and the trophy became the target of Chelsea and Liverpool. For Liverpool with poor league results, the FA Cup is also their only "life-saving straw".
Last season, under the leadership of Don Jack, Liverpool miraculously completed a big reversal in Istanbul, seizing the only chance to win the championship and the most exciting championship - the Champions League. It can be imagined that Liverpool, who has been in good shape recently, desperately wants to seize the last chance of the FA Cup.
For Chelsea, the FA Cup is an opportunity for them to prove that they are stronger than last season.
Lampard, the core of the team, vowed last week in the two influential media of The Mirror and the Sun: "We are desperate to win the FA Cup. Mourinho knew the opponent he was going to face. Benitez, who played steadily, lost the first three games last season, but defeated Chelsea in the last confrontation of the most important Champions League and went to Istanbul. Chelsea also won two games in the league this season, but he should be extra careful in the last match.
Mourinho found an excuse for losing last season: "The league is different from the cup. The league is the best team to win the championship. A penalty, a misfortune, and a red card will not affect the final result of ten months. But the cup always needs some luck.
"... Last season, Liverpool had Jack, and now that boy went to Newcastle United and helped the Northern team take our championship..." Speaking of this, Mourinho's expression in the league was not very good. He decisively stopped the topic: "Liverpool is without Jack. It's difficult for them to win us by luck..." The word "difficult" is gnashing of teeth!
But the analysis of The Sun claims that Mourinho may have figured out a way, which is the "change" that Chelsea has always been good at.
In the last three games, Chelsea has used the double striker tactics. Chelsea has scored nine goals, and the results are quite good.
If you ask where Chelsea's most relaxed player is, the answer is obvious: winger. Damien. Duff didn't play, Rubin and Ashley. Cole only played two halves, while Wright Jr. had only one half. Chelsea guaranteed "freshness" in the winger position. The magic weapon of Chelsea's last match against Liverpool happened to be two sides. Reuben and Cole each scored one goal to help Chelsea win the opponent 2-0. Therefore, even if Crespo scored two goals from Liverpool a year ago, and even if Drogba was the "hero" of the first match between the two leagues, Chelsea is likely to abandon a striker in the match with Liverpool.
These analyses naturally have nothing to do with Newcastle United. In fact, Newcastle City is ready for their league championship.
West Bromwich!
Newcastle United's opponent in the 36th round of the Premier League, this team has only accumulated 30 league points so far. Before only ranked Sunderland, which is determined to be relegated, they will compete with Portsmouth and Birmingham for points to determine the relegation quota for this season's league, so the last three rounds of league against West The importance of Bromwich is self-evident!
In the final stage of the league, it is not a good thing to meet a team that is about to be relegated, which means that the team has to work hard to deal with it, because it is about to be relegated, especially for teams that have the opportunity to "not relegated". The last few games are their only hope.
Before the game, West Bromwich Albson coach Robson talked about the current situation of the team and made a "military warrant" speech, which is bound to get three points at St. James's Park to defend their glory... Although the call is very loud, in fact, West Bromwich Albion's performance has been a mess recently. The record of four losses and one victory in five games is really unconvincing. How can it be easy to prevent Newcastle United from winning the championship!?
The Daily Mirror published an article entitled "Can West Brom to prevent Newcastle from reaching the top!?" In the report, the reporter analyzed the strength and confidence of the two teams. The result is self-evident. The reporter concluded that West Bromwich Albion would be turned into a funnel by the front line led by Jack.
Of course, the analysis and real games are different, but this partly illustrates the gap between the two teams.
On the day of the game, St. James Park Stadium was full of people. Tickets for this game were sold as early as five days ago. In order not to offend the fans, the stadium allowed Newcastle to conquer this game to allow 50% more 'station seats' to cope with the enthusiasm of the fans.
It's a rare championship in the 1980s, which Newcastle fan wants to miss it!?
Even if the stadium responds in this way, it still can't meet the needs of the fans. There are a large number of fans gathered in Emton Park on the west side of the stadium. There are at least more than 100,000 fans, and there are still many people scattered nearby, some of whom are from the surrounding area. According to the municipal government department, today from other places. There are at least 130,000 people in Newcastle City, which is a very nerve-wracking number, because there are only 300,000 people in and around Newcastle.
In desperation, the Newcastle municipal government can only come forward to mobilize the surrounding police to maintain city security. There are a large number of police officers near the stadium. Many of these policemen are also fans. Some even bought tickets to take a break to watch the game today, but the work requirements do not allow them to ask for leave, but they can be in St. James. The work near the park court is also good. They can know the situation inside at any time, because the big screen of the square will reflect everything.
Soon, in the focus of many eyes, the game between the two teams began.
Although Robson, the head coach of West Bromwich Albion, vowed to fight for victory before the game, at the beginning of the game, the fans saw that West Bromwich Albion adopted a defensive strategy. Their formation was compressed very backwards and did not seem to have the intention of attacking at all, which made Newcastle United very vigilant at the opening, in case The opponent deliberately showed weakness, and then it was not good to fight back. Although there were many fans watching the game off the court, Jack Tang still steadily commanded his teammates to attack slowly and play the game steadily to prevent the opponent's raid.
The goal of this game is not to win a big score, nor to play a beautiful ball game, but to let the team win the league championship after the game!
A draw is acceptable!
This goal is very low, but it must be achieved. Many fans gather in Newcastle. If they lose and drag the league championship to the next round, Newcastle United Club will really become the laughing stock of England. This kind of thing puts a lot of pressure on the players. Some Newcastle players on the court are too conservative, so Don Jack is not in a hurry at the beginning. He just slowly seeks an offensive breakthrough and commands the team's formation not to attack too forward.
This makes the two teams at the beginning very harmonious, but the game seems very dull.
In the twentieth minute of the first half, both teams gradually entered the state. When they saw Owen crossing the midfield again and passing back to himself, Don Jack knew that it was time to attack!
If you want to win a steady victory, the method is not to defend all the time, but to attack is the best defense. If you can widen the score gap early, there will be no suspense about victory or defeat, and the defensive score will remain unchanged. As long as the opponent scores a goal, it means that failure is coming. Therefore, the first goal is the most important.
West Bromwich Albion players thought that the opponent's brunette boy was going to pass the ball again. Unexpectedly, Jack Don was going to break through with the ball this time. When Jack Tang passed the two players, they realized it and immediately withdrew their defense in a panic. The pace of the game accelerated in an instant. This acceleration made many players uncomfortable. Even Newcastle United is the same, but the opponent's maladjustment is the most important thing. Panicity makes their defense a loophole. In a short time, Don Jack has broken through to the front court.
At this time, the defenders who West Bromwich Albion could run back were all huddled near the penalty area, which was obviously their defensive tactic: human sea tactics.
This kind of defensive tactic is really humiliating, but it is the most effective tactic. It is difficult for any technology to make up for the number of people. It is really not easy to shoot the ball in the penalty area where there is no gap. Seeing the chaos in the penalty area, Don Jack feels a little headache. This sudden breakthrough speed with the ball is not slow, but Xibu Romwich's defensive strategy from the beginning is also very successful.
His breakthrough did not work.
Next, Don Jack can only choose to hang the ball to the penalty area, where there are Owen and Ameobi. If the two can compete for the ball, they still have a chance.
###
Owen plugged in when Don Jack was driving the ball. Although he rested for more than four months due to injury, Owen and Don Jack still had a tacit understanding. He knew what he should do on the court. Standing in the crowd, Owen was defended by several people. He glanced at Jack Don's position and saw the defensive players around him. Know what Don Jack is going to do next---
This is tacit understanding!
When the football flew over, the West Bromwich Albion defender did not know whether the opponent's black boy was going to shoot or pass the ball, so they were a little flustered. The latter moment they knew that their physical reaction was a little slow, and Owen was already prepared. Although he was defended by a defender, Owen still found it. In the gap, from the gap, he tried to squeeze the general with his body and jump up. Before West Bromwich Albion central defender Knour, he hit the ball with his head.
"This ball..." Outside the penalty area, Don Jack saw Owen's header and shook his head and sighed. If it were him, he could at least hit the ball right, and Owen was almost cleared.
But the next moment, he didn't think so.
Because the football flew towards him, he realized that Owen was not going to shoot the goal, but to pass the ball back. Because of this idea, Jack Tang was suddenly stunned. He seemed to realize something, but when he was not thinking about something, when he saw the football flying over, he immediately met him and followed him. Pulsion!
"Dong!"
Due to the panic that went in just now, the West Bromwich Albion players had no time to defend. Even their goalkeeper Cole did not know where the football was. When the ball flew into the goal, the West Bromwich Albion players realized that it was the opponent who scored... Because the voices of all the fans at the scene reminded them----
"Oh, Goooooal!!!!!!"
In the hearts of Newcastle fans, this plain long-range goal may be more wonderful than any other this season, because it means that the team is closer to the championship, and the meaning is naturally different.
Newcastle United players hugged each other with Don Jack, but after a small celebration, Don Jack's performance was very flat. It was not that he didn't care about his goals, but that he realized that since his mood improved, he had less persistence in playing football and also less trust in his teammates!
For example, just now, he didn't expect Owen to pass the ball back to himself!
This kind of mentality is not good. At least it will affect my normal performance. It is not a good thing to blindly believe in myself. Just now, I only thought that shooting might create opportunities for my teammates, but I didn't expect that my teammates could also create opportunities for themselves.
Jack Don suddenly had a clear understanding that he felt that he had found a balance between the team, his teammates and his personal ability.
This is also a small improvement in strength, but this promotion also makes Jack Tang have no desire to celebrate the goal just now. He did not celebrate with the fans or do anything excitedly. He just hugged and shook hands with his teammates. Although his performance was very mediocre, he still received a lot of praise from the media. They believed that it was because of this "bland and mature mentality" that Jack Tang was able to get to this point.
Of course, these Don Jacks themselves don't know.
In the cheers of all the fans, the game continued, and the Newcastle United's attack began to fight slowly.
For the players on the field, it is not yet time to celebrate. They still need to make continuous efforts to make the cheers of the fans sound non-stop. It is best to ring at the end of the game to welcome the new **. This is the process of winning the championship. So when Don Jack scored a goal and the team had no pressure, Newcastle United changed the stability of the opening game and played in waves of attack.
The game on the field is completely different from just now. West Bromwich Albion's defense is as fragile as a boat under such a stormy wave of attack, as if it is likely to be destroyed by the waves the next moment. West Bromwich Albion originally wanted to fight defensively, but their counterattacks were not smooth. The football was always taken back by Newcastle United players before it passed the middle line. This kind of game makes Newcastle fans even more excited!
However, senior football players find it incredible. What makes such a gap between the two teams is by no means the morale of the two teams, because West Bromwich Albion's team is also working hard, and in terms of strength, it is difficult for the two teams to play like this in a normal game, even if West Bromwich Albion It's the same with the bottom team in the Premier League.
But soon, their eyes noticed the running black-haired figure.
