Chapter 235 The Life-and-death Battle of Boa Vista

(Sorry, I'm too sleepy, I slept, and the update was delayed for more than half an hour)

October 17th!

The 9th round of the Dutch League begins!

Alkmaar's away challenge to Sparta Rotterdam.!

This game is very important for Alkmaar, who aspires to defend his title, because his rival, Eindhoven, slaughtered Den Bosch 7:0 at home and ranked second in the league table, which is Alkmaar's biggest and most direct competitor! After this battle, Eindhoven is only one point away from Alkmaar. If Alkmaar can't win, their top position may be replaced at any time.

However, another opponent, Feyenoord, lost when challenging Roda JC away, losing 1:2 to the weak Roda JC.

If you win, you can open the gap with your opponent, but if you lose, your opponent will catch up with the score. Therefore, this is a 6-point competition!

Due to Alkmaar's brave performance, Kobili, the head coach of Sparta Rotterdam, carefully put on a 451 formation at HetKasteel Stadium, focusing on defense!

Jiang Mu did not hesitate to sacrifice the 433 formation of the attack. Huntelaar and Robben, who started in the last game, still started this time!

This is a very bold decision, because Sparta Rotterdam is not a fish brisket like Dembos. They have been in the Netherlands all year round. If Alkmaar is on the bench, Sparta Rotterdam definitely has the possibility of a cold.

It turns out that Jiang Mu's decision brought a wonderful game for Alkmaar fans to watch!

After a start, young players Robben and Huntelaar seemed to be enlightened. They were excellent in passing, running, passing and shooting in the front court. Especially in the case of Ronaldinho starting, Robben and Huntelaar both got a certain amount of room for assault, so the goal was inevitable.

In the 15th minute of the game, after Ronaldinho attracted the defensive battle, he suddenly had a straight plug. Robben understood that he used his speed to break through the opponent's defense line and broke through the opponent's goal.

After 1 to 0, Sparta Rotterdam is still unwilling to take the initiative to attack. They also know what will happen to their team's attack, so they just symbolically attack, still defending around the penalty area, waiting for Alkmaar to attack.

Alkmaar's attack was not interrupted. They continued to strengthen their attack. In the 25th minute of the game, Ronaldinho made a corner kick, and Lucio retreated the header to the goal. His header was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper, but Huntelall picked up a missed goal and turned the score to 2:0.

After 2:0, Alkmaar continued to attack, and Sparta Rotterdam had to pull out and fight against Alkmaar at this time, and the game suddenly became wonderful.

Sparta Football Club Rotterdam is one of the earliest clubs established in the Netherlands. It has won six local league championships. Their strength is not weak. After playing against Alkmaar, the two sides have cooperated with each other and scored alternately.

In the thirty-fifth minute of the game, Sparta Rotterdam scored a goal and made the score 1:2, but five minutes later, Alkmaar continued to score, and Ronaldinho changed the score to 3:1.

The players from both sides scored 4 goals in the first half, and the goals in the second half were still alternately appearing, and the score was also rising alternately. In the first minute of the second half, Alkmaer used a blitz goal to replace Drogba with a direct long-range shot.

But five minutes later, Sparta Rotterdam used a penalty to bring the score to 2:4.

Jiang Mu continued to replace people on the sidelines, using this league to find the state of the main players and prepare for the Champions League in the middle of the week.

After Lamo Kuit came on the field, Sparta Rotterdam was under a lot of pressure in the front court. Alkmaar's high position was so fierce that they could hardly get the ball out.

Under the strong pressure of Alkmaar players, the Spartan players in Rotterdam finally made a big mistake. The defender passed the ball directly to Kuite. Kuite lived up to the big gift from his opponent. He went straight in, pushed the goal and rewritten the score to 5:2.

Sparta Rotterdam, who then let go, scored another goal, and Alkmaar also scored another goal. The two sides finally scored an amazing 6-3 score, which opened the fans' eyes.

Two days after the league, Alkmaar ushered in the challenge of the Portuguese super team Boa Vista at home.

This game is an extremely important moment for Alkmaar, because before this game, they ranked first with 9 points, and both Rosenborg and Dortmund ranked second and third with 4 points. When Alkmaar won this game, their points reached 12 points, regardless of Rosenberg or Duo. Tulmond wins or loses this game, and Alkmaar will definitely advance.

This can be said to be a match point. The victory of Alkmaar is in the hands of Alkmaar. The victory of Alkmaar in this game will set a new record in the history of the club, because they have not entered the second round of the Champions League before.

For Boa Vista, this game is also a match point. If they lose this game again, no matter what the other teams play, they will be eliminated. At this time, for Boa Vista, this is a life-and-death battle. Although it is an away game, they will never give up easily. .

Before the game, Boavista coach Pacheco said: "It's a pity that after three games, we were forced to the edge of the cliff. For us, this is a life-and-death battle. We only have one way to win. Only when we win can we have a chance to qualify in the group.

Of course, I know who our opponent is. Alkmaar is a big dark horse. Their strength is very strong. They are fully capable of entering the quarterfinals, and they still play at home. It is very difficult for us to win, but we will not give up. We will play our highest level of competition. Score, until the end of the 90-minute game.

In the face of Pacheco's desperate declaration, Jiang Mu also made a tit-for-tat response. At this time, both sides want to win. The game must be an offensive battle. Before the game, morale must not be weakened. You must show courage and fighting spirit.

"We are in a very good situation. As long as we win another game, we can qualify in the group. This is a great miracle, because no team has been able to do this step. We have shown heroic temperament and courage, and the best reward for us is the game.

But is this game easy to win? It's not easy to win. We are facing a crazy bull. Their game is a life-and-death battle. They will never let us succeed easily. If we win, it means that they are eliminated, so we should consider the difficulty of the game and never be optimistic.

Before the game, the eyes of the media also paid attention to the match between Alkmamar and Boa Vista. Many people know that this game is likely to be the day when Alkmaar sets a record. If they win, they will become the first team to advance. As a second team to reach the Champions League, Erkmaar's performance is jaw-dropping.

On October 19, in the fourth round of the Champions League, Alkmaar's home game with Boa Vista kicked off.

There is not much difference between the starting and the first round-robin between the players. Pacheco is still his best 433 formation. The goalkeeper is Portuguese goalkeeper Carrick, the four defenders are: Sosa, Litos, Cotto, Silva, and the three midfielders are: Bolivian veteran Elvin Sanchez. Cape Verde midfielder Nielton, midfielder Bento, three forwards: 31-year-old veteran, Romanian Timofort, Dura, Brazilian striker Verreton.

Alkmaar also played a 433 formation today. The goalkeeper Cesar, the four defenders are Riise, Lucio, Ismail, Klon Camp, the three midfielders are Gattuso, Van Bommel and veteran Lai, and three strikers Ronaldinho, Drogba and Kuyte.

Alkmaar, who played at home, was proactive. They never wanted to lose to their opponents here, nor did they want to disappoint the fans.

Boavista, who fought away from home, is also not conservative. At this time of letting go, their conservatism is meaningless. As Pacheco said in the team meeting, if you don't fight, you will be eliminated. If you fight, you will have the opportunity to qualify. At this time, it is not men who don't fight.

Both teams are technical teams, and the head coach is also very smart. The team's skills are excellent, and the overall cooperation is tacit. They let go of the attack and immediately sparked.

Less than ten minutes after the start of the game, the deadlock of the game was broken.

This is a wonderful attack launched by Boa Vista in the front court. Although both sides are very eager to win, one is promotion and the other is elimination. The two sides are facing different situations. The potential of Boa Vista's players to burst out in a desperate situation is very huge. In fact, this team is mainly unfamiliar with the Champions League. In fact, they can break the monopoly of the Portuguese Super Three to the champion, which shows that they have the strength to challenge the strong team.

The initiator of the attack is Sanchez. The veteran passed the ball to Timofort on the front line with a beautiful heel. Timofort was also inspired. He also hit his heel when retrieving the ball, and the ball came to the front of striker Dura.

There has been a lot of laughter in the stands. Being able to play such a cooperation in such a game shows that Boa Vista has really exerted all its potential and does not have any psychological burden.

However, the young striker Dora was still a little reckless. He could rush into the penalty area with the ball. At this time, Dora was anxious to make a long shot.

However, good luck was accompanied by Dora. His shot actually hit Alkmaar's tall defender Ismail's leg and flew into the net. The goalkeeper Cesar could only watch the undercover teammate score an own goal.

1:0

Boavista took the lead in scoring, and striker Dora made an own goal for the opponent's defender.

The stands cheered and thundered, and the substitutes on the bench suddenly rushed out. Head coach Pacheco knelt down on the ground excitedly.

But Jiang Mu couldn't help shaking his head. The opponent's luck was so good. Such a failure and the door of a mistake actually won. When can he have such good luck?
