Chapter 269 Take the lead
Erickson has been annoying and popular recently.
He no longer appears in sports newspapers and sports programs as the head coach of a professional football team. He now frequently appears in entertainment programs and gossip news tabloids. His relationship with Nancy and Monica soon spread all over Europe, and everyone feels the private life of this seemingly polite gentleman. Surprised, some people despise, some people are angry, some people envy, and some people think that celebrity privacy should not be violent. But what most people have in common is that Eriksson is usually too serious and polite, and now it seems to be hypocritical.
Erickson is now afraid to be interviewed by reporters. His players have stated in advance that they are not allowed to mention any topics about their head coach, otherwise they will refuse to interview. However, this still did not block the enthusiasm of reporters to report. Before the start of the Champions League, Nancy and Monica appeared in newspapers and TV far more than Erikson and Jiang Mu, which was also a great spectacle.
At this time, Jiang Mu, who provoked the incident, was out of the matter. He even supported Erickson. Jiang Mu said, "The head coach is also a person. Naturally, he has seven emotions and six desires. Erickson is just what men want to do. In this, I don't want to comment on Coach Erickson's emotional problem. Is he a pervert or a hypocrite? It doesn't matter. I just need to know how he is doing as the head coach.
Erickson did not know that it was Jiang Mu's words that caused him to fall in love, because at first he did not pay attention to Jiang Mu's ordinary interview. When he paid attention to it, the overwhelming gossip news could not tell the source and cause.
Jiang Mu's statement surprised Erikson. He also thought that Jiang Mu would definitely fall into the well. With Jiang Mu's character, it was too normal to fall into the well.
Erickson said that rumors from the outside world will not affect the team's preparation. "The players and I are both adults. We will not affect our work because of personal problems. The Champions League is very important to us and as important as the league. We must reach the quarterfinals. This is the goal we set before the season, but It is difficult to achieve this goal, because we are in a very difficult group. Alkmaar and Chelsea are very strong. We can't make a little mistake, otherwise we may be eliminated. We must play well at home. One point is the minimum, of course, it is better to win. Only in this way can we take the initiative to get out of the line.
According to the outside world, Eriksson is still very stable, but at the team's meeting, Eriksson demanded that he must win the game. Of course, the reason is aboveboard. The qualifying team in Group D is locked in three teams, Lazio, Chelsea and Alkmaar. If they can't win Alkma at home. Er, do you still expect to win away from home? They are equivalent to giving a qualifying place to the Dutchman, and they can only compete with Chelsea for the other one.
In fact, everyone understands that Erickson must block the media with victory. If he wins, the fans will definitely not care about Eriksson's cheating, and even promiscuity doesn't matter. They want a head coach, not a decent gentleman. And if he loses, cheating must be one of Erickson's crimes.
Although Jiang Mu doesn't know what Erickson thinks, this cheating door is estimated to put a lot of pressure on the Swedes. He believes that Erikson absolutely wants to get rid of this situation that is unfavorable to him, and winning is the fastest and most favorable way.
As long as Erickson thinks so, Jiang Mu is relieved, because there is only one way to win, that is, to attack. If you want to attack, you can only send offensive players. There are only a few offensive players from Lazio. Jiang Mu is very familiar with Erikson's offensive style. Next, it depends on how Jiang Mu aims at the target to attack. If Jiang With the help of Chang'e 1, Mu couldn't even complete this task, so he didn't fool around and then travel back.
Of course, the decisive factors affecting the game are the coach and players, but in addition, the referee is also a factor that cannot be ignored. Referees of different levels and styles will make two teams with similar strength play two different results. In Jiang Mu's preparation, the referee is also a neutral person who must be studied. All he did was win over the referee, at least to make the referee like himself, and at least to keep the referee neutral.
French referee Vichy has nearly 30 years of referee experience. He has a thorough understanding of football rules, is flexible and does not play cards easily. However, once he plays cards, he cannot be questioned by players and coaches. A referee like this is very confident in his authority and experience, and is also very proud. Jiang Mu requires players to do less. It's called a foul and a fake fall. Try not to stimulate the referee. As long as the referee can treat his players fairly on the road, Jiang Mu thinks it's like winning the referee.
At 7:45 p.m. on February 29, Rome Olympic Stadium
The third round of the UEFA Champions League group stage officially kicked off. The two teams in the game are Lazio and Alkmaar, which ranked first and second in Group D of the Group D of Death.
"Aha! Lazio's starting lineup is the same as what you guessed!" Lin Nazhou said excitedly, and his eyes were full of admiration. It was not difficult for 11 people to guess more than half. If it was difficult, it was difficult to guess all of them. How much effort does it take to study?
Jiang Mu stared at the court with an indifferent expression, "Since Erickson wants to win, this is the only lineup. If it were me, I would line up like this."
Seeing that the assistant coaches and players around him were still a little confused, Jiang Mu said, "Goaler No. 1 Macegiani, needless to say, fools know it, unless he suddenly has a stroke. Central defender No. 13 Nesta and No. 11 Mikhailovic, there is no doubt that Sansini can also replace Mikhailovic, but if Eriksson wants to win, Mikhailovic's free kick will not be missing. If you are not in a hurry to win, Eriksson uses 451 against a strong team, which mainly emphasizes the control of the midfield. Generally, Eriksson prefers to use the central defender Sancini as the midfielder, a barrier in front of the defense line. Simone's attack and defense are very tough. But today, Simone has only one midfielder and adds a striker to play 442. Generally speaking, Little Inzaghi, Boxic and Lopez take turns to play, but Lopez is more suitable for counterattacking. Boxic's technical awareness is better, but he is in a bad state, and Little Inzaghi is better at hard battles, so let him Match with Salas.
Two front-backs, the Portuguese Coniccao on the right, have a strong breakthrough pass, and Nedvede on the left is not to mention it. The absolute steel warrior can't run. At the front waist, Peron, his straight plug pass was very strong at that time, and he often sent wonderful cannonballs to Salas and Boxic, as well as long-range shots. Because they are worried that the attack power will not solve our defense, the two full-backs must go to Pancaro and Favari and let them take turns to insert assists. It is estimated that Pancaro will attack more. If Favali wants to face Ronaldinho, he should focus on defense. In this way, the 11 starting lineup came out, and the goalkeeper 1 Macegiani
Middle guard 13 Nesta
Central defender 11 Mihainovic
Right-back 15 Pancaro
Left-back 5 Favari
14 Diegos at the back. Simone
Right forward 7 Concicao
Left forward 18 Nedvid
Fore Waist 23 Peron
Frearer 9 Salas and No. 21 Little Inzaghi
Jiang Mu's explanation was like digging out Eriksson's heart and lungs to watch, which made the players and coaches on Alkmaar's bench admire him. He sighed how this young coach's ability was trained and how his brain grew.
On the other side of the coach's seat, Eriksson's eyes were grim and he wiped it from time to time. Although the light rain had stopped, he didn't seem to be able to see the characters in the distance.
Jiang Mu's starting lineup surprised Eriksson. He couldn't guess that Jiang Mu dared to send the starting lineup like this. The goalkeeper Cesar, defender Lucio, Ismail, Riese, and Kloncamp. This was not unexpected to him. In the midfield, Van Beau and Mergattuso did not surprise him. Ronaldinho put it. Although it was a little unexpected in the position of the front waist, Ronaldinho is also these two positions, either the front waist or the right winger. Erickson has already made arrangements. What surprised Erickson was Robben's starting line-up. On such an occasion, a 16-year-old young player, there is definitely some adventure. I believe there is no one of the ten coaches. He dares to do this. The center came to Tomasson instead of Drogba, which made Erickson mutter in his heart that the fast winger did not let the high striker go. He didn't know what medicine was sold in Jiang Mu's gourd. The right winger is Kuit, which is nothing new, but 11 people guessed two wrong, and Ronaldinho's position is also a little biased, which is not a good thing for Eriksson. He now hopes that his players have good adaptability and not be fooled by a child.
A coach like Eriksson is a conservative person. Something unexpected and uncontrolful on the court makes him uneasy, while Robben, an unexpected starting winger, has performed extremely well.
Lazio's main attack in this game is actually his right side, because although Nedvede on the left side is strong, he has to compete with Ronaldinho, who has excellent ball skills (in Eriksson's vision, Ronaldinho is the right winger), so Coniccao and Pancaro should focus on offense in this game.
However, because Jiang Mu's platoon was beyond Erickson's transformation, as a result, Nedvid could completely suppress Kuyt, so he began to attack, and Consikao and Pankaro also attacked frequently because they had an important offensive responsibility. In this way, although Lazio was a 442 formation with a balanced attack and defense, it was better than The attack 433 was still fierce. After the attack was pressed, there was only a midfielder, two central defenders and a full-back.
Since he took the lead in the quarter-finals of the Dutch Cup, Robben has become more and more mature, and he is not afraid to appear in the 80,000 Olympic Stadium.
In the face of Concicao, Robben told the Portuguese famous player who was nearly 10 years older than him what it was like to be a hero since ancient times. Robben's technology, speed and flexible change of direction made Conccao and Pancaro cry bitterly. Especially after their attack, Ronaldinho's ball can always hit their uncomfortable place, and then They can only accept Robben's torture in a huge space.
In the fifth minute of the game, Coniccao took the first yellow card of the game. It just rained and the ground was slippery. This was the second time he was shaken by Robben and grabbed the Dutch Peter Pan with his hand. Pancaro's speed is not as fast as Robben. If Coniccao does not foul, Pancaro must foul. On the balance, or Concicao, the midfielder, applied for a yellow card.
The referee Vichye verbally warned Conicao for the first time, but this time he did not show mercy.
He got a yellow card at the beginning, and Lazio's right defense faced difficulties, which made Erickson's expression more grim. He sat in the coach's seat and thought hard about how to deal with it.
