Chapter 408 Asian Cup
The final of the 2011 Asian Cup will be played in Japan and China Hong Kong.
Will the new Asian champion appear? However, with the progress of the Chinese Hong Kong team, many doubts also sounded at the same time.
First of all, the composition and structure of the Huaxia Hong Kong team, except for a few Hong Kong players, the main players in the team are all naturalized players. Even Li Yu is suspected of naturalization. Of course, Huaxia Hong Kong and Huaxia are one, and the issue of Li Yu's nationality is not the focus.
The focus is on other main players. Muric, Konka and other absolute main players are good, but they are all naturalized players.
In addition, Asian countries, especially East Asian teams, are afraid that the West Asian oil countries will also follow the example of the Chinese Hong Kong team and smash a naturalized player with gold dollars to play.
Many Asian football associations have come forward to express an opinion that there is a limit on the number of naturalized players, just like foreign aid.
However, the so-called naturalized player has a premise, that is, he must have the nationality of the national team, and why limit the number of naturalized players.
Anyway, FIFA has no relevant regulations and will not introduce similar regulations.
The sound came out, which did not affect the preparation of the Huaxia Hong Kong team.
In fact, everyone knows it in their hearts. If you can't eat grapes and say that the grapes are sour, you can't beat them. Can't let others complain?
It's time to train or to train!
Li Yu's ability is almost insoluble in Asia. Although Japan can compare with European second-rate teams in the midfield, Japan is still at the Asian level in the backcourt!
When you meet Japan, there is nothing to say. You must win. Although Li Yu didn't say it in the face of the media, he knew very well in his heart, "You can't let little Japan win the championship, at least you can't take it away in your own hands!"
The football field should not have other colors, but Li Yu is well aware of Japan's harm to China from getting up early in education since childhood. Anyway, as a Chinese, he must do his best to win Japan. Li Yu still has this realization.
The 2011 Asian Cup final was officially kicked off at the Halifa International Stadium in Doha, Qatar. The three-time Asian Cup champion Japan team played against Huaxia Hong Kong, which reached the Asian Cup final for the first time.
Early Chinese fans are already waiting for the start of the game.
The Asian finals can attract so much attention. Without the contribution of Chinese fans, the data will not be so good.
It is worthy of being a populous country. If you pay attention to a game, you can set a new viewing record in the previous finals.
It can be seen at the scene that except for the specially arrived Japanese fans, the remaining Chinese fans and local cartel fans all support the Chinese Hong Kong team.
Where is Li Yu's popularity?
It's not popular. If you just look at the goal, you should also support Li Yu!
Not long after watching the game, people found how lucky it was to be able to come to the scene to watch the game. Li Yu was in a surprisingly good state. It was obvious that Li Yu played very seriously in today's game and kept retreating to the midfield to help the team defend.
Li Yu's withdrawal does not mean that the attack is weak.
In the first 5 minutes, Li Yu set a tone for the game with a world wave.
"My God, this is not the power that human beings can emit!"
"In the camera, we all seem to be able to see the air driven by football. What a power!"
Japanese goalkeeper Kawashima Nagashi felt the most direct feeling. He never thought that the ball speed could be so fast. Before the game, although the head coach Zacheroni repeatedly stressed that he should pay attention to Li Yu's long-range shot, pay attention to what can do? When he heard the sound, he was startled, and then the reaction was over. He could only pray that the ball would fly, not in the range of the goal.
It hit the door frame!
With only one ball, Nagashi Kawashima can feel a lot of sweat flowing out of his hands under the protection of gloves. Can he not be nervous? If you shoot within the goal range, the ball will be scored!
Honda Guiyou, who was still shouting before the game, lowered his arrogant head, and the strength of his feet was so different that it could not be compared at all.
Japanese players have never been strong. Keisuke Honda said before the game that he was the best attacking player in the world.
How ironic it is now. Compared with the confident Emperor Honda Keiyou and Li Yu, the two are really not the same level of players. What team is Manchester United and what team is CSKA Moscow?
"I didn't get in, but look at the expression of the Japanese goalkeeper, hehe, he seems to have completely lost confidence in Li Yu's shot!"
As the commentator said, Li Yu's shots in this game are all domineering. With enough strength, Li Yu's shots can be reacted by ordinary goalkeepers.
1:0!
It was Li Yu who scored the goal, who hit the door like the reincarnation of Hercules, and finally pried open the door of Japan.
It looks so simple, but it looks so powerful!
What is a powerful conquest? This may be it!
Zacheroni didn't expect that today's Li Yu completely changed the style of the previous games. It's all hard. Playing with the body and playing with power, the Japanese team can't do anything. It's just these things that don't work!
Who can restrict Li Yu? Looking at the field, who is there?
If you look at it again, you can't find the answer. No one can fight against Li Yu!
What should I do?
Is this the responsibility of the gun?
Zacheroni used to be relatively conservative, but today he can't be more conservative. The more conservative he is, the more he loses. This scene is the ending. Before the game, he was right, and he is more dangerous than who has to attack.
Coming to the sidelines, Zacheroni kept urging the players to attack. It is really rare that the Asian Cup final is so open and close. Neither team is conservative.
Li Yu's favorite game rhythm appeared, and the two sides attacked!
Japan's passing attack is slow, but the attack of Huaxia Hong Kong is a fatal sneak attack.
There is nothing we can do. The Japanese team's attack is to press the whole team, use the pass to find the opponent's loophole in the inverted ball, and strive to score.
The Japanese team's shot may be an attacker, and everyone can be a passer.
On the contrary, the Huaxia Hong Kong team is simpler. The arrow is Li Yu. If you have a ball, give it to Li Yu. Erikson's tactics are extremely simple. Is it simple? Without a player with strong personal strength like Li Yu, you can't play if you want to!
Soon 2:0!
The Japanese team was hit hard again, and its own attack was ineffective. Instead, it was counterattacked by Li Yu, who directly passed the goalkeeper and pushed the empty goal.
"It's too simple. This game is not like a final, but more like a group match!"
"I can't stop it! Japanese players can't keep up with Li Yu. The key to this game is Li Yu!"
Chinese fans should not be too excited. In the past, there was no fear of Korea, but there was no fear of Japan. Now it seems that Japan may be very likely to suffer from Lee disease after the game!
It's so relieved. The goal is so beautiful. Is the goalkeeper just a decoration?
Of course, Chinese fans hope to get a few more!
Li Yu did not let people's expectations fail, and the goal will not stop!
3:0!
At the end of the final of the Asian Cup, the three goals were all completed by Li Yu. In fact, the hat-tricks were played by Little Japan. Li Yu didn't grasp the opportunity to stage the big four times several times.
In the end, the Golden Boot Award of this Asian Cup was undoubtedly won by Li Yu of the Chinese Hong Kong team. Li Yu scored a total of 11 goals in 6 games of the Chinese Hong Kong team. There was no competition with Li Yu at all, as if this Asian Cup golden boot was tailored for Li Yu at the beginning.
At the same time, Li Yu also broke the scoring record in the history of the competition, and the winner of the golden boots in this competition also reached double digits for the first time.
As for the MVP of the competition, is it necessary to say?
Of course, Li Yu still won. In all the games in which the Huaxia Hong Kong team participates, Li Yu has scored goals, with an average of nearly 2 goals, and the Huaxia Hong Kong team will also score at least 3 goals.
What a terrible attack!
Li Yu's joining makes the Huaxia Hong Kong team have the attack power of a world-class team. As long as the overall strength does not exceed too many world strong teams, no one can get anything good when they meet the Huaxia Hong Kong team.
The fact of the World Cup also proves this. Returning to the Asian arena, the Chinese Hong Kong team is almost invincible. With Li Yu, you never have to worry about fewer goals in the Asian arena.
The end of the Asian Cup means that January has passed.
Li Yu will not return to Hong Kong with the team to celebrate. Even the simple celebration in the hotel, Li Yu did not participate. He will rush back to the UK and return to the Manchester United Club as soon as possible.
In fact, Ferguson is actually unwilling to let Li Yu go. Park Zhixing can leave, but Li Yu is obviously much more important than Park Zhixing, because there is no substitute in Manchester United, and no one can. Li Yu is not only the goal guarantee of the Chinese Hong Kong team, but also the offensive guarantee of Manchester United Club.
Looking at the results of the recent competition with the weak team, people found that after leaving Li Yu, Manchester United won some of the weak team at the bottom of the points, and the attack seemed very weak. It was a little worrying to get points!
There are physical problems, but relatively speaking, Manchester United's Christmas schedule is relatively easy. Two games have been postponed, and there is enough time for Manchester United to adjust their physical condition.
Manchester United visited White Hart Lane in this round and played 0-0 against Tottenham Hotspur under the unfavorable situation of 10-11, and the season's unbeaten golden body continued. After the game, Ferguson refused to comment on the red card shown by referee Dean to Rafal.
"I don't need to talk about this. You can watch it by yourself. I don't need to comment on the referee. Now this is beyond my boundaries. Thank God."
Today's game against Tottenham Hotspur is Manchester United's 37-year-old veteran Giggs's 600th game in Manchester United's top league. Ferguson is full of praise for his lover. Giggs is an incredible player and a real idol. He sets an example for other players.
Ferguson also specially praised Manchester United's defense, "This is a very difficult game. Tottenham Hotspur is in good shape, but they really didn't get many opportunities against us. We are very confident. I think they played very well. This is a game that is expected to win, so we must stay focused. Today, our defense is very good, and they have maintained a high level of attention.
"You need to win those two make-up games. We are going to play Chelsea in early March, which is a decisive game. Soon, we went to play Blackpool in good condition. As I said a few weeks ago, this may be an exciting thing at the end of the season. All the top five teams have a chance to win the championship. Tottenham Hotspur is not out.
Tottenham Hotspur coach Harry Redknap believes that referee Dean's red card on Rafal is "severe". He also believes that the central defenders of both sides play well. "Both sides play well in the back line, especially the four central defenders. Both sides get very few opportunities. Manchester United has won the Champions League. They have played many key battles and dominated Europe with strong defense. They are a team that is hard to beat. When they have only 10 players left to fight, we can't make the game more open.
In addition, Lao Lei also talked about Beckham's loan. "Beckham must return to the United States in February. There is no time (loan signing), which is a very regrettable thing."
Although it was a draw, Manchester United, which played two games less, still beat Manchester City to occupy the top of the list.
On January 23, Manchester United played against Birmingham at home. Compared with the starting lineup of Tottenham Hotspur in the last round of the 0-0 away game, Lord made three changes in the starting lineup. O'Shea, Smarin and Anderson replaced Rafale, Ferdinand and Fletcher respectively. In this game, O'Shea and Anderson's performance was excellent, and Smarin was also moderate.
Since the 2-2 draw with West Bromwich Albion last October, Manchester United has won eight consecutive games at home in the Premier League. The strong home win rate is also the capital for Manchester United to take the lead. Unlike Arsenal, which has lost to the promoted Masi Bromwich Albion, Newcastle and Tottenham Hotspur at home this season and has lost 11 points at home. Manchester United has achieved 11 wins and 1 draw in 12 Premier League home games that have been played this season, and only 2 points have been lost at home.
This season, Manchester United has been leading side by side in the Premier League, UEFA Champions League and FA Cup. In the Premier League, Manchester United is the leader with obvious advantages; in the group stage of the Champions League, Manchester United is unbeaten and qualified as the first place. In the first round of the knockout match, it will face the defending champion Marseille in Ligue 1; the FA Cup also advanced to the next round after successfully defeating Liverpool, away against the weak team Southampton, Manchester United does not seem to give up at all. Think.
Last summer, Manchester United brought in striker Hernandez from Guadalajara, Mexico, for 10 million pounds, and Bibby from Portugal's Victoria Guimaraes for 7.4 million pounds, but Smarin, who introduced 10 million pounds, was actually a player signed in the winter transfer window last season, not counted in this season. The list of funds.
In terms of leaving the team, Ferguson sold Foster for 6 million pounds, Tosic for 8 million pounds, and Cascade for 500,000 pounds. In this way, Manchester United netted 2.9 million pounds in the transfer market last summer. As for Lindegaard, which was introduced for 3.4 million pounds this winter, he has not played in official matches for Manchester United so far, which is basically negligible.
looking at the other nine giants in Europe, the amount of investment last summer was only the fourth from the bottom. Real Madrid netted 68 million euros last summer, Juve netted 41.1 million euros; AC Milan netted 24 million euros; Chelsea netted 19.7 million pounds; Arsenal netted 13.4 million pounds; Barcelona net 8.5 million euros; Liverpool net profit of 1.6 million pounds; Bayern net profit of 5.72 million euros Inter Milan made a net profit of 37 million euros. With such a low investment and small capital, it is incredible that Manchester United can achieve such results as today, and even surprised hundreds of millions of Red Devils fans around the world.
If they can beat Blackpool away in the make-up next Tuesday, Manchester United will lead Arsenal by as much as 5 points. In the goal difference, Manchester United will not fall behind. If they beat Blackpool, they will lead Arsenal by at least 4 goal.
This season, in the 28 most important games of the Premier League and Champions League, Manchester United is still unbeaten, which makes many teams very unconvinced. Many industry insiders are also puzzled. Tottenham Hotspur coach Harry Redknapp believes that "Manchester United can be completely defeated, and more than one team may beat them."
Although only Danish international Lindegaard has arrived in Manchester United's winter transfer market so far, Ferguson confirmed that Valencia, the absolute main force last season, will return in a month.
"We will look at Leo's situation on Monday morning, and we will not make a decision before that. Carrick's foot hurts. This is where Gerald shoveled him, so he can't continue the game. Valencia is making good progress now. He has relieved the danger signal from the doctor and is now under our full control. This is great news. He has started the running plan and receives physical therapy every day, which is a big step forward. He may return to the first team at the end of February, which is a great benefit for us. We are all looking forward to the early arrival of this day.
In the following leagues, Manchester United will play Villa at home, Wolves away, Manchester City at home, and Wigan away, until they will challenge Chelsea and Liverpool away in early March.
It is too early to discuss whether Manchester United can win the championship with an unbeaten season, but at least it can be discussed whether Manchester United can remain unbeaten in the league until March.
William Hill, a famous gambling company, can't sit still. They set a 1 to 12 odds for Manchester United's unbeaten season, betting that Manchester United will repeat the unbeaten myth of Arsenal's 03-04 season. Compared with the same period of Arsenal's 03-04 unbeaten season, Manchester United is still 4 points away. In the 03-04 season, Arsenal reached 52 points with 15 wins and 7 draws after 22 rounds, while Manchester United scored 48 points with 13 wins and 9 draws after 22 rounds this season.
In the 03-04 unbeaten season, Arsenal ended up using only 22 players in the league, while Manchester United has used 27 players in the league in 22 rounds. This does not mean that Manchester United is deeper than Arsenal's bench, but it shows that there are not many people who can still fight.
Ferdinand believes that Manchester United's lineup is the most powerful in the whole Premier League, with two or even more people competing for the starting lineup in each position, which is of course a good thing for Manchester United; but for the opponent, it must be a difficult thing. Because in the long league, having a thick lineup will have the psychological advantage in the competition with the championship opponents.
