799 David Beckham's ambitions

"Pounce...... Pounced out! ”
"Oh my God, my God, Peter? Cech, the great goalkeeper, actually saved Dominguez's inevitable goal! ”
'It's amazing, it's a miracle, it was supposed to be an unstoppable goal, but in Cech's body it was amazingly resolute, he almost flew out and saved the ball off the line, it was a great save and one of the greatest saves in the Champions League this season. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Cech got up from the ground and patted the grass clippings from his gloves that would make them slippery, so he always cleaned them up as soon as possible, and then he saw his team-mates walking towards him one by one.
A pair of electric eyes swept over his teammates, especially when he saw Curtis, he suddenly roared, like a raging lion.
"Do you know what you did? Curtis? You were so easily passed, didn't you know that behind you was our team's goal? ”
Curtis was stunned, he and Cech had a very close personal relationship, and he never knew that Cech still had such a violent temper, and he didn't even know how to answer for a while.
"Cold, wet, quick counter-attack, is that why you and everyone concedes the ball?"
Cech couldn't help but shake his head, "I'm not a god, I can only do my best to prevent the opponent from scoring, but it's not enough for me alone, I want you, and I want everyone in our Red Rebels." ”
"What are you afraid of? They're just a bunch of guys who are taking advantage of the weather, the field, and the home advantage to make some trouble for us, are we scared? Can't we even defeat them? ”
At the beckoning of the referee, the players began to disperse, and it was a corner kick from Kazan Ruby.
Curtis was stunned by Cech's words, he didn't think Cech was counting him down, they were very good friends, they had been together for many years, they knew each other very well, he knew that Cech was just a little angry when he couldn't get used to the performance of his teammates.
And his words also carried a little bit of the idea of arousing the fighting spirit of his teammates.
Although Cech is the captain of the Czech national team, he is the captain of the Red Rebels, and he should stand up earlier than Cech to strengthen the determination and belief of his teammates.
Curtis made a prediction of the corner kick in advance, heading the ball away before everyone else, and after landing on the ground, he quickly stepped forward, ignoring the Red rebels who were spreading like a tide behind him, as well as the players who retreated to defend the Kazan Ruins.
Alves won the ball on the right flank, stopped the ball and sent it forward, then accelerated to catch up, and in one breath he was already in the Kazan Ruby half.
In the face of the defenders, Alves had a beautiful wall-hitting cooperation with Kaka who was quickly inserted forward in the front court, although the passage into the penalty area was cut off, but he was not hindered too much on the right side, and went down to the bottom line smoothly and made a curling ball.
Cesar? Keylor Navas, a Madrid-born, native Spaniard, moved to play in the snow of Russia and, in a short period of time, immediately became the heart of the Kazan Ruby defence, showing his ability to adapt on the pitch.
Tall, strong, excellent air superiority and head-on confrontation are all characteristics of Navas, but his flaw is also obvious: his agility.
Alves' clever pass went straight into the middle and Navas had to retreat, but he suddenly felt a huge confrontation coming from him, and when he reacted, the opponent had already jumped high.
"A beautiful fish leap to the top! The Red Rebels have scored! The narrator shouted excitedly.
"It's Curtis, the captain of the Red Rebels, Curtis, in this counterattack, Curtis's forward speed is very fast, and his speed is not lost to Alves, so when Alves crosses on the right, Curtis overpowered Navas, leaps to the top, and scores a goal for the Red Rebels!"
Curtis's speed is very fast, his physical fitness is very good, but he is not enough to compete with Alves, after all, Curtis's strong body affects his speed to some extent, but Alves who advances with the ball is indeed not much faster than Curtis, and Curtis's speed is also the top among the central defenders.
After the goal, Curtis excitedly wanted to get up from the ground, but was quickly pressed down by his teammates, and then stacked up one after another, and Curtis, who was pressed at the bottom, could only be unlucky to become someone else's human flesh pad.
Mourinho nodded excitedly, "I know, they never let me down!" ”
Cassel and Juninho Jr. were also amazed and convinced of Mourinho's words.
The first goal is often the toughest to beat an opponent like Rubin Kazan, but once a goal is scored, the game will change dramatically, and the Red Rebels will be more relaxed for the rest of the game.
…………………… In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, and the Red Rebels relied on Kaka and Michael? Johnson's two goals, beating Kazan Rubin 0-3 away, made it two consecutive wins in the Champions League.
Although the outstanding performance in this game is Michael? Johnson, but the best player was awarded to Red Rebels goalkeeper Peter? Petr Cech, they believe, it was a miraculous save from the Czech goalkeeper that completely activated the Red Rebels and gave the team a new look and world-class form for the remainder of the game.
Speaking to the media after the game, Cech said he didn't say much to his team-mates.
"I don't need to say more, we are a unit, we know each other, we know each other, I believe we know and trust each other, and as for me yelling at Curtis, it was just a small episode in the game, and there were no problems between us at all."
As he spoke, Curtis suddenly burst out from behind and picked up Cech by the waist, and then a group of Red Rebel players made a fuss near the general interview area.
'Yes, it was a very difficult game, but for me and for us as a team, the training is very valuable and after this tough game I believe we will become more mature and stronger, and we will understand more than ever how to play to our strengths and win every game.' Curtis said confidently.
"Win every game?"
"Yes, that's our goal, we just have to go on the pitch and there is only one purpose, win!"
And after this game, when the Red Rebels were ready to return to Manchester, they received another piece of good news.
Barcelona, which was slaughtered by the Red Rebels at home in the first leg, sat at home in the second leg, but was equalized by Dynamo Kiev with a strong score of one goal, Shevchenko has once again become Barcelona's nightmare, even if he is no longer at the peak of his year.
As a result, the Red Rebels are in first place in the group with 6 points from 2 games and 2 wins, Dynamo Kyiv is second in the group with 4 points from 2 games, 1 win and 1 draw, Barcelona is 3rd in the group with 1 point, and Kazan Ruby is at the bottom with 2 losses.
After two rounds of battles, the situation of this group is somewhat unexpected, in addition to the stability of the Red Rebels, the unexpected fall of Barcelona did give many commentators a lot of astonishment and surprise, and Dynamo Kiev drew with Barcelona away, which was a big upset, making people realize that the strength of the Eastern European team and Shevchenko's old strength are strong.
Returning from Kazan to Manchester, the Red Rebels sat at home and welcomed their old rival, Steve? Bruce's Birmingham team.
Birmingham have had a strong season and started the season impressively, especially with Mamadou, who has moved from the Red Rebels? Sako and Jovetic did a great job and soon became Steve? Bruce's strongest player, coupled with Birmingham's heavy investment this season, makes Birmingham an extraordinary fight.
Although the Red Rebels are at home, Mourinho has never dared to be careless about this old enemy, and still discharged the full main lineup to play, after several twists and turns, and finally defeated Birmingham 2:0 at home with the goals of Xiao Xiaoluo and Messi, and won the opening 8 consecutive wins in the league.
It was after this round of league games that David Beckham's England national team regrouped.
…………………… Beckham's side will face two crucial World Cup qualifiers in the next two weeks, and only by winning both of those games and hoping that their opponents will make a mistake will England have a chance to reach the World Cup in South Africa.
This time, the English media did not brag for the first time, but did everything to cover the game in a calm and calm tone, and at the same time tried to help England collect clues and intelligence about all opponents.
Beckham personally called Xiao Yu, the scouting network of the Red Rebels helped the England national team collect intelligence on the opponent, you know, the scouting network of the Red Rebels is second to none in the world, if it were not for Beckham and the Red Rebels such a deep background and relationship, Xiao Yu would not have agreed to Beckham.
In addition to the scouting network, two heavyweight coaches of the Red Rebels, Moniz and Mulenstin, have both traveled to the England national team to assist David Beckham, whose cooperation with England will end at the World Cup in South Africa, and this time, Beckham has also temporarily invited Kassel to join his coaching staff.
In terms of players, the Red Rebels have once again become England internationals. Richards, Curtis, Terry, Rodwell, Ismail, Walcott, Michael? Johnson and Wilshere have been named in the England squad for training again.
In training, Beckham's main lineup has been very clear, the Red Rebels will once again form the core of the England national team, and his formation will continue to use the 433 tactics, the front trident is Ismael, Walcoat and Rooney, and the three midfielders are Gerrard and Michael? Johnson and Frank Lampard.
There have been changes at the back, Ashley, who has not performed well at Chelsea? Cole was killed by Layton? Replaced by Barnes, Droysden left wing-back is the Premier League's leading left-sided striker and is in good form, while Ashley? Kerr's form has slipped and there is no guarantee that he will be assured, and Beckham has dropped him on the bench.
Terry, Curtis and Mika? Richards' backline mix hasn't changed much either.
The goalkeeper is Droisden's Joe? Hart, the blood goalkeeper has been performing more and more brilliantly in recent seasons, and is now England's famous chief goalkeeper, plus his good performance in the national team, sitting firmly in the main team, Sunderland's Chris? Taylor served as his replacement.
Although the main lineup has been confirmed, Beckham is still refining and improving the tactics in more detail, and the addition of Kassel, an expert in running without the ball and a tactical expert, is for this purpose.
From October 4 to October 10, Beckham conducted closed training for the national team, did not arrange any warm-up matches, and did not allow the media to disturb him, except for Mourinho, who once visited the training camp, and refused all visitors.
However, after the visit, Mourinho said with a smile in an interview with reporters, "David is on an incredible road, his transformation of the national team has completely exceeded my expectations, he is building another Red Rebels, which is very different from my team." ”
"Do you think he can pull off a miracle and lead the LinkedIn Gran national team to the World Cup in South Africa?"
Mourinho nodded confidently: "Of course, there is no doubt that I have confidence in him, and I even think that if a team as good as England and a manager as amazing as David Beckham cannot appear on the big stage of the World Cup, it will definitely be a loss for FIFA and fans all over the world." ”
The media began to pay attention to Mourinho's remarks and began to have high hopes for Beckham's national team, especially for the World Cup qualifiers to be held at Wembley on October 10.
It seems that in order to cooperate with Mourinho, Beckham shouted the slogan of a big victory in a high-profile press conference before the game.
"We're going to win at least 3:0!"
This is undoubtedly the first time he has shown his ambition so nakedly, and his purpose is simple, England's game is played the day before, and he wants to create psychological pressure on Ukraine and the upcoming Croatia.
…………………… The crowded Wembley Stadium has become the focus of the world's attention, and although Belarus is not a world powerhouse for the other team playing here, it is England that allows them to play in the spotlight.
Unfortunately, the team's number one star, Al-Hleb of Barcelona, was out injured, which was a bit unfortunate for the Belarusians, but even more unfortunate was that England scored first just three minutes into the game.
Ismael, the tall and strong Englishman, broke into the Belarusian penalty area after the opening kick-off, Gerrard leaned to the right and played with Rooney before crossing into the box, where he beat the Belarusian centre-back and headed home to open the scoring for England.
After that, Belarus played away from home and paid more attention to defence, and they began to play the defensive counter-attack that they are good at, and it was with this set of tactics that they created a lot of upsets before.
But they overlooked one thing, and that was that without Hleb, their defence was solid, but the counter-attack was not necessarily sharp, and after a long time, England were bound to score again.
In the 59th minute of the second half, Walcott cut into the penalty area after a man-to-man ball on the left side, and after a beautiful bicycle action, he shook off the opponent's central defender, and then made a curved shot, and the ball hung in the corner of the goal, 2:0!
The goal completely extinguished the confidence of the Belarusians, who began to retreat, began to defend and lost the fighting spirit to fight back.
England took advantage of the victory to chase and face the iron bucket formation, and used Ismael as a commanding height.
Sure enough, in the 75th minute, it was Walcott's cross from the left side, and Ismael half-turned and volleyed to rewrite the score to 3:0, and this goal also completely sealed England's victory.
Seeing that the big picture was decided, Beckham rotated his players in preparation for the away game against Ukraine four days later, after which England also created a lot of chances, but could not score again, and Belarus could only swallow three eggs and leave England in disgrace.
After the victory, Beckham excitedly praised his players at a press conference, saying that he had fulfilled his promise and that each of his three goals was spectacular.
"Confidence in qualifying for the World Cup? I've never lost faith, I'm more confident than ever, Ukraine are going to play Andorra away, and although there is a huge difference in quality between the two teams, Andorra is dangerous at home, and Ukraine may not be guaranteed to win. ”
"Croatia are going to play Kazakhstan away and they are also not safe, we have been to Kazakhstan before, the environment and the fans will be Croatia's biggest enemy, and the absence of Modric will also have a huge impact on this Croatian team, I believe it will be difficult for them to get out of it!"
David Beckham has given a pessimistic assessment of his group's two biggest rivals, because only then will his England have a chance of qualifying.
Perhaps at this moment, in the minds of all the media, Beckham's image and Mourinho's overlap somewhat.
It seems that it is really influenced by Beckham, or maybe Ukraine's luck is really bad.
In the away game against Andorra, Shevchenko went off injured in the 32nd minute of the first half, and the score was 0:0!
And just three minutes later, Andorran striker Joel took advantage of a scuffle to break the deadlock on the pitch with a stabbing shot past Ukraine.
After that, Andorra contracted its defensive line, and although Ukraine fought back, Ukraine without Shevchenko also lost the ability to make a final decision, and although many opportunities were created, they were not able to seize them in the end.
When the game was over, the most excited fans were not Andorra who were upset, but England fans in the British Isles.
