"Lost!"

In the hotel where the England national team was staying in Kiev, the leader of the England national team excitedly rushed into the conference room on the floor and roared in fuss. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan, lost!" He apparently trotted all the way over, out of breath.

Xiao Yu shook his head a little amusefully when he saw him like this, "It's Croatia that lost, not Kazakhstan!" ”

When everyone heard this, they all burst out laughing.

Just a few minutes ago, Kazakhstan beat Croatia 2-1 at home, and Croatia without Luka Modric were in a chaotic midfield organization, Kazakhstan twice took advantage of the opportunity to break through Croatia's goal, and Croatia pulled one back, but in the end they could not get back the score.

This is undoubtedly great news, for David Beckham, for the England national team.

"The tide is now completely reversed, David!" Xiao Yu said with a smile.

Although Beckham's face is serious, his eyes are shining, and he knows very well that Croatia's defeat has undoubtedly created an unprecedented bright situation for England, as long as they win against Ukraine, England can qualify as the top of the group.

This is absolutely unimaginable to all England fans before!

"Ukraine will also be dead in this game, as long as they draw to qualify, plus Shevchenko is injured, they will definitely stabilize the defense first, and then try to counterattack, even if they don't score, they must prevent England from scoring." Kassel analyzed.

Croatia are currently top of the group, but they are only 1 point more than Ukraine and 2 points more than England, and Ukraine only needs to draw with England to reverse Croatia and occupy the top spot in the group and qualify directly, while Croatia will go to the play-offs.

England will have to win if they are to be able to reverse Croatia and Ukraine.

This intricate situation is indeed a headache, but it is also exciting.

From being sentenced to death when he took over, to now, more than half a year later, England has come back to life, and Beckham has won consecutive victories in his coaching career, which really makes everyone feel incredible, but Beckham knows very well that it is not only himself who has created his achievements, but also his assistants and players, but more importantly, the Red Rebel system behind it.

From the tactical system, training system, to the scouting system, to the team medical system, etc., England has almost completely transplanted the Red Rebels, coupled with the presence of many Red Rebels players in the team, so that Beckham can easily build this England all-winning team.

But if he wants to continue to maintain the victory, there is only one choice, defeat Ukraine!

"The current Ukraine is in a metabolic period, and its strength is not as good as the Ukraine in the German World Cup qualifiers, defeating Turkey 0:3 away, Denmark 1:0 at home, and Greece 0:1 away, Ukraine at that time was much more powerful than now!"

At that time, Ukraine was the first European team to qualify for the World Cup, which caused a shock in European football at that time, and many people even exclaimed that Ukraine's football storm was coming again.

"However, since the withdrawal of Rebrov, Shevokovsky and others from the national team, this Ukrainian team has used a lot of new generation players, although these players are young and energetic, but in terms of strength, competition experience, and team cooperation, they are much worse than the previous Ukrainian national team."

"But even so, this Ukraine team should not be underestimated, especially their tenacity and pressing on the pitch, and their fluid passing and running are very characteristic of the Blokhin era."

Oleg? Blokhin, once the soul of the former Soviet Union's midfield, won the UEFA Cup and the European Champions Cup, and after retiring as the head coach of the Ukrainian national team, he turned Ukraine into a fearsome dark horse, and even once thought that Ukraine had a chance of winning the World Cup, because they once played 11 games unbeaten in the qualifying group stage, only to lose to Turkey after qualifying.

However, Blokhin voluntarily resigned after the team lost the right to qualify for the European Championship.

Blokhin's dismissal brought a big shock to Ukraine, followed by the arrival of a new coach, and then Rebrov, Shevokovsky and others announced their retirement from the national team, which ushered in a round of metabolism for Ukraine.

"Ukraine's tactical style is relatively rough, the work is not fine, and the long pass is good."

It's a bit like the previous version of the England national team, with long balls and slings, but they only play long passes, but they rarely slot, and their defensive counter-attacks play well, a team that is difficult to entangle.

"How? Have you figured out how to deal with it? Xiao Yu asked with concern.

Beckham smiled and nodded, "Of course, it's going to be the game soon, if you haven't finalized the tactics at this time, then what?" ”

"Well, in that case, then we are waiting for your good news!"

........................ "The players from both sides walked out of the tunnel and England made a slight change to their starting line-up. ”

'Frank Lampard was injured during a training session two days ago and has left the England squad early, and it will be interesting to see who David Beckham will replace Frank Lampard in this game, and now we can see 17-year-old Wilshere from the Red Rebels in the starting line-up.

England's starting line-up appeared on the live screen, still 433, but Wilshere occupied the left position of the three midfielders, Gerrard was on the right, Michael? Johnson occupies the middle, which also shows Beckham's superstition about 433.

"England's lineup says it's 433, but it's actually more like a 41221 tactic, Michael? Johnson tends to be further down the line than his two teammates, as David Beckham once commented, Michael? Johnson is the rarest single midfielder in football today, and he is the main core of the current England national team, whether it is organization, tandem or defense. ”

"Ukraine played a 451 tactic and they deployed three midfielders in midfield, which also shows that Ukraine are at home but lack confidence, after all, England's current form is so good, they have even won all the World Cup qualifiers since David Beckham took over."

Immediately after the start of the game, England poured into the Ukrainian half.

Since David Beckham took over the English national team, England has embarked on a technically delicate route, reusing players from teams with delicate skills such as the Red Rebels and De Roysden in terms of personnel, and tactically, Beckham has paid attention to the requirements for technical details and running off the ball.

As predicted before the Kassel game, Ukraine started the game with a defensive footing, with four defenders and five midfielders relegated to their own half, and for them, a draw is guaranteed to qualify them from the group and they can qualify for next year's World Cup in South Africa.

Teams that take the initiative tend to have better options!

"It's a little bad!" Darren? Lyons stood right next to Beckham, his brow furrowed deeply.

"I'm in such a hurry!" Beckham concluded.

The players all know that only a win will guarantee England qualification in this game, and it is a game of heaven or hell with no middle ground, so they showed a strong winning from the start**.

But because they were too anxious to win and score, the players were a little impatient in their mentality, which was directly presented on the pitch, and England's momentum was scoreless.

Seeing this kind of scene, Beckham came to the sideline and headed towards Michael? Johnson waved his hand, "Hey, Michael! "Then I did a little bit of a retreat.

Michael? Johnson immediately understood what Beckham meant, took advantage of an opportunity, retreated deeper, and immediately chose to knock back when he got the ball, and made a simple cooperation with Curtis and Terry behind him, and immediately stabilized the offensive situation that was originally pressed quickly.

After Beckham on the sidelines saw it, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile of appreciation, Michael? Johnson's ability to control the game, his ability to read and understand the game, has improved as he has gotten older and his more experience, and he can now change the pace of the game with every move.

In the 12th minute, Leiton? After Barnes broke the ball down the left flank, he handed it to Michael, who dropped back to pick up? Johnson, who barely stopped the ball and got it straight to Wilshere's feet.

It was Wilshere's first start for England and it was a huge pressure for a 17-year-old in such an important game, but if he could withstand it, it would have an immeasurable impact on Wilshere's future development.

As soon as Wilshere stopped the ball, he turned and passed a low flat ball, the ball went directly to the feet of Walket on the left, and Wilshere stepped forward on his own, Walket knocked back, Wilshere took the ball at the edge of the penalty area, shook off the opposing defender, and hit a powerful volley, but it was slightly wide.

Although Wilshere's shot failed to produce a goal, his delicate combination with Walcott on the left flank was eye-catching, especially their penetrating combination in the tight gap, which gave hope of breaking down Ukraine's defence.

Sure enough, Beckham did not hesitate at all, and immediately let the team's offensive line tilt to the left, allowing Wilshere to actively move forward.

Two minutes later, it was again Wilshere and Theo Walcott on the left flank, who tripped a full-back on the edge of the box to secure a yellow card and an indirect free-kick in front of England.

Michael? Johnson's free-kick is slightly headed high by Terry, goal kick!

After that, England once again pulled up the rhythm while the iron was hot, and pressed the right side of Ukraine, that is, the left side of England, which made the Ukrainian defense line suddenly burst into a storm.

Especially in the 26th minute, seeing that he couldn't get a chance on the left side, Walcott moved the ball wide to the right, Rooney took the ball and forced a cross from the bottom, Ismael turned and hit the goal at the front point, slightly higher.

"Ukraine is in danger!" Even the on-site commentators could see it.

David Beckham also looked a lot more relaxed, he saw England's advantage on the pitch, and as long as he continued to maintain that advantage, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and kept the tempo and the situation of the game at his feet, it was only a matter of time before he won the game.

"Don't be nervous, Jim, we'll win sooner or later!" Beckham laughed.

Wilshere is definitely a brilliant move, his start is indeed too sudden, some people said before that Beckham will use 442 tactics to push Rooney up to play a double striker, but no one expected that Beckham would let the 17-year-old Wilshere start.

Wilshere and Frank Lampard are different, with the former having a strong sense of position, defending more of a positional and awareness-oriented role, and his ability to run well, but what impresses him most is his delicate technique at the feet, as well as his ability to see the big picture and read the game on the pitch.

The super high ball quotient is what everyone who has seen Wilshere play in his evaluation, which is also a major feature of the Red Rebels academy players, so Beckham tried to arrange Walcott and Wilshere on the left side in training.

The two players often interplay in training, which gave David Beckham confidence that the combination of Walcott and Wilshere could do the unexpectedly well against a team of Ukraine's style.

Now, the situation on the field really confirmed his previous suspicions.

However, although they are in control of the situation on the field, in the end, they still have to score to count.

In the 39th minute, England's offensive, which firmly controlled the game, gradually stopped, and Ukraine, which was suppressed for the entire first half, was also relieved, and the first half was about to end.

But at this time, Leyton on the left? Barnes swooped forward and sent the ball to Walcott on the left, where the England winger deftly dribbled past the Ukrainian full-backs and then made a sudden stop in front of the baseline before shaking off a defender again and hoisting the ball into the box.

Ismael was firmly in control of the penalty area with his body, but it was clear that he was blocked from the angle of his shot, so he opted for a header and smashed the ball with his forehead towards the area around the penalty spot.

It's Wilshere again, this youngster has been following the team all the way from the midfield, and he is not slow to squeeze into the Ukrainian penalty area, grabbing before everyone, and he doesn't stop the ball, facing Ismail's header, it is a straight shot.

The goalkeeper was out of reach, his attention was on Ismail, and when he reacted, he could only watch Wilshere score his first goal for the national team.

"It's beautiful, it's a very beautiful goal!"

"Wilshere, a 17-year-old who won the FIFA World Youth Ballon d'Or talent, had high hopes from David Beckham in this crucial game and performed very well to open the scoring for England!"

'Throughout the first half, England's left side was the most lively area, and the combination of Wilshere and Theo Walcott on the left gave everyone hope for English football, with their excellent footwork and skillful interplay that were even more impressive, but even more commendable was that they were both young.

"David Beckham's England is not just replacing Capello and bringing in the Red Rebels system, he has also stepped up efforts to bring in young players, 20-year-old Walcott, 21-year-old Michael? Johnson, 21-year-old Mika? Richards, 24-year-old Curtis? Davis, 18-year-old Rodwell, and 17-year-old Wilshere are among others. ”

"Beckham's emphasis on young players has undoubtedly injected a youthful force into this England national team, and it has also officially made the outstanding performance of this group of young players, coupled with the roots of the older generation of players such as Terry and Gerrard, make the whole England team show strong fighting power."

At the moment when Wilshere scored, Beckham was excited and Darren? Lyons and others celebrated, he was so excited, this was a game that was related to whether England could participate in the World Cup, and carried the hopes of countless England fans, and he absolutely could not allow himself to lose this game.

Luckily, Beckham's gamble won!

Wilshere was definitely one of England's most active players of the game, with his presence in the middle and his combination with Theo Walcott on the left was a masterpiece, which gave Beckham a new midfield combination.

In the second half, Beckham still did not replace the duo of Theo Walcott and Wilshere, and they did not disappoint Beckham.

In the 74th minute, after 30 minutes of stubborn resistance from the corner, Ukraine was finally broken by England again.

It was Walcott and Wilshere on the left side of the continuous cooperation, the latter won the ball in the front of the penalty area, cleverly low cross into the penalty area, Ismael deliberately missed, Rooney in the back row grabbed the defender before the defender, poked the ball into the goal, rewrote the score to 0:2!

This goal also completely declared the winner of this game, Ukraine despite their tenacity, despite their pathos, they had to accept the fate of being eliminated!

As if anticipating Ukraine's last-minute comeback, Beckham immediately replaced Rooney with Rodwell, Walcott was pushed up front, and the midfield was a combination of four central players, with Rodwell dropping back to play at the back to play his excellent defensive ability.

Although Ukraine launched a desperate counterattack, England's defense seemed to be leaky, especially the new Rodwell, who performed very well and was no worse than Wilshere.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, not only the Ukrainian players who were eliminated fell to their knees, but even the English players fell to the ground one by one, they had already tried their best in the game, and they didn't want to move.

But that feeling of being a hero, it's really good!

Although they are far away in Kyiv, Ukraine, although they cannot see or hear, they can imagine that England must be jubilant at this moment, and the fans must celebrate like a holiday.

They became heroes of England, legendary heroes!
