740 nuclear warheads for 15 minutes
readx;
Football, in many countries and nationalities, may be a competitive sport at best, but for the English, who have always flaunted rationality and rigor, and even some stubbornness, football almost drives them crazy!
England's football has always been far from high, every time the national team training camp, they will shout slogans such as to win the European Cup, to win the World Cup, this has become a common ritual for the national team training camp, but every time, they end in failure, and each failure is almost the same reason.

"We can win 2010!"
Even the Times is accustomed to such headlines, and even in this special page article, there is a story about England beating Ukraine and entering the World Cup in a bump, Capello also completed the run-in of the team, and finally made a splash in the World Cup finals, leading LinkedIn Gran to win the championship.
The whole process seems to be full of reason, but in fact, it does not stand up to scrutiny at all.
There is nothing new in the article, and the same is true for the lineup, the only novelty is, "Actually, we don't need the Red Rebels!" β
In English football circles, many people say that it was Murdoch who brought all this to life, and he had a very important quote at the beginning, "The media is about tailoring the content to the audience!" β
The audience likes high-level ball games, and we will give you high-level ball games; Readers like to see half-hidden hot girls, so I'll give you three editions of girls; Fans love to see the England national team win the championship, so every time we train for the national team, we will concoct a national team championship plan for you.
Yes, it's just a schedule, and who knows if it will come true?
Gradually, Murdoch's style also infected other people, infected other newspapers, and making a national team championship plan became a must for every English media outlet, unless you want to get along with sales!
But Brian, who single-handedly created the legend of Nottingham Forest? Clough said, "The England national team is shit, we can't make it to the final!" "He has a very unique position in English football, the fans and the media are afraid to scold him, but no one wants to agree with him.
The new edition of Capello's national team has trained again, and the media has also started a new round of South Africa's World Cup winning schedule, and under such hype, no one will believe that England can't win Ukraine at home.
Especially after the 4-0 win over Slovakia in the warm-up match!
Against Slovakia, Fabio Capello was a bit of a surprise to make Manchester United's third goalkeeper Ben? Foster replaces David? James started, and his performance was not bad, after all, England had the advantage and suppressed Slovakia throughout the game.
Unfortunately, Capello lost his troops in this warm-up game.
Before the game, Tottenham manager Redknapp Sr. was very dissatisfied with Capello because Capello forcibly called up the 28-year-old central defender Ledley in the Tottenham team? Kim, who has been plagued by a knee injury for a long time this season and has only been able to play one game a week.
"I talked to Capello's assistant Pierce about King's knee problem and asked him to relay it to Capello, but he obviously didn't hear me and went ahead and chose to call up Ridley, and unfortunately he was injured in his first training session with the national team."
Ridley? Kim did not attend the first training session after arriving at A.T. Kearney training base, but resumed training with Tottenham's medical team and team doctor until the day before the game against Slovakia, when he took part in the team's training camp but was injured again when he landed on the ground during a bouncing header.
"I don't understand, why did I forcibly recruit him to report to the national team when I knew he was injured? Why not Curtis? Davis? Why can't it be Jaguelka? They were all alive and kicking, but Capello refused to recruit them, why? Is it because they played for the Red Rebels and Droisden? β
"It's a double standard, Ben? Forster is the third goalkeeper at Manchester United, Capello still recruited him into the national team and started him, but Curtis is the captain of the Red Rebels, and Jaguerka is the main central defender of Droisden, but Capello refuses to be called, what is the logic? β
Old Redknapp is clearly on Ledley? Kim is unhappy with his injury, as he was forced into the squad despite being injured and will now miss the rest of the season for Tottenham.
Old Redknapp has reason to be upset about this, and even vent!
But except for Ridley? In addition to Kim, the England national team also ushered in a dilemma on the front line, Heskey scored a goal in the opening seven minutes of the warm-up game against Slovakia, but was injured in the 14th minute to replace Carlton? Kerr also played only 20 minutes before going off injured again.
Unfortunately, Crouch, who had already come to the national team training camp with an injury, was ordered to play, but his right leg was also injured in the second half and had to limp off the pitch to rest.
One game, the same position, three injured players, which has to be said to be very rare.
However, the injuries of the three players are also different, Husky has basically confirmed that he will miss the game in Ukraine, Crouch is a hard injury, he should be able to catch up, Carlton? Kerr has a muscle strain and has already left the training camp early.
Judging from Capello's tactical system, he prefers to arrange a strong center forward to partner Wayne Rooney, and now all three strong center forwards are injured, and everyone is calling for Capello to be promoted to Ismael, who recruited the Red Rebels.
But Capello stubbornly chose to dig inside, and in the game against Ukraine, he even did not hesitate to put Wayne Rooney at the front, let Gerrard play as a shadow striker, and then put Ashley on both wings? Young and Lennon, the two central midfielders are once again relying on Barry and Frank Lampard.
Reusing Ashley at the back? Cole, Mike? Dawson, Ferdinand, Glenn? Johnson, goalkeeper David? James, Capello ultimately chose to rely on the veteran, Ben? Foster can't play at Manchester United, Capello is still very worried about him, and at the critical moment, the goalkeeper position is very fatal!
Unlike Slovakia, Ukraine currently sit 13th in the international rankings, even one place above England, which are now 14th, while the difference between the two teams is not much, with only 16 points.
As if to confirm this FIFA ranking, in this game, Ukraine played more aggressively than England from the beginning, but Ukraine's head coach Mikhailchenko surprisingly put Ukraine's star Shevchenko on the bench.
Shevchenko's position at Chelsea has been shaken by Nicolas Anelka's move to Chelsea this season, and his declining fitness and form have further forced him to lose his place in the Blues, but his place in the national team is still very secure.
Before the game, many experts commented that Shevchenko must be careful in this game, even if he is no longer the brave man he used to be, but he is still the most dangerous striker on the planet.
Mikhailchenko's tactics are clear, make sure not to lose!
Although it took 25 minutes to attack after the opening, Ukraine was on the defensive counterattack for a longer period of time.
England's powerful attack against Slovakia proved to be a fantasy, with Ukraine's attack looking disorganized, Barry and Frank Lampard simply not controlling the game, and Rooney's impact and Gerrard's threat failing to materialize.
England have been in the driver's seat for a long time, but have never been able to score.
The Ukrainian defense was well done, freezing Rooney and Gerrard, on the wing, Ashley? Young and Ashley? Kerr's combination on the left was quite threatening, but it didn't work much, lacking a connection point in the middle, and Lennon on the right was playing with Glenn? Johnson's cooperation seems to be not tacit enough.
In the first 75 minutes, Ukraine organized an iron wall and completely strangled England's attack outside the penalty area.
At this time, everyone felt that something seemed to be wrong!
Although Mikhailichenko is not a world-class coach, he has also planned this game carefully, he has painstakingly formulated a game plan, so far, although there are small flaws, but the execution is good, the score is still 0:0.
So at this point, he decided to play his hole cards.
So, in the 76th minute, Shevchenko came out!
The first touch of the ball after the Ukrainian nuclear warhead came in the 79th minute, when he received a long pass from the back on the right and deftly stopped the ball to face Ashley? Cole, he suddenly chose to cut in, in Ashley? Kerr had previously entered the penalty area and hit the goal with his feet, slightly wide, but everyone was shocked into a cold sweat.
At this time, Capello also seemed to sense that something was wrong, so he immediately replaced Ashley with Bridge? Cole.
The Chelsea left wing-back is past the peak of his career, and the current world number one left back is Patrice Evra of the Red Rebels, and his form also looks terrible in this game, so Capello replaced him with Bridge, more fearing that he has become a hole here.
Shevchenko was very active in the front position, and although he came off the bench, Mikhailichenko's tactics were clear, not expecting him to be good in the 90 minutes, as long as he was good in the last 15 minutes.
After Shevchenko came on the field, Ukraine's tactics also completely revolved around him, and as soon as the ball reached the front, almost all of them swirled around Shevchenko, but England never managed to prevent the nuclear warhead from being used.
In the 87th minute, it was Shevchenko again on the left side to face Glenn? Johnson, a deft dribble was tripped by the opposition and Ukraine were given a set-piece in front.
Ukraine took a free kick into the penalty area, the ball bounced on Ferdinand's body, but Shevchenko next to him cleverly found an opportunity, grabbed the goal before the England central defender, the ball touched the ground and bounced into the net, 0:1!
At this time, in such a situation, Ukraine scored a goal, and the English fans in the stadium suddenly boiled, and one by one they got up from their seats and shouted to demand Capello to leave class.
Xiao Yu, David Beckham and Jose Mourinho were all present to see the fans' anger at Capello, and the sound of the entire Wembley Stadium was almost shocking, almost tearing off the roof of Wembley Stadium.
Capello sat in the dugout, and no one could see his expression clearly, but it was conceivable that it must have been very, very ugly at this time, because he had never been treated like this by a fan.
England went crazy and the players were on the pitch with crazy counter-attacks, but Ukraine was not to be outdone.
In the 91st minute, Shevchenko also had a direct free kick and almost penetrated David again? James' goal, the England international, should also be responsible for the goal conceded.
The English fans in the stadium were shouting the sound of Capello's dismissal, and even when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, all the fans were very dissatisfied with Capello, and even countless tissues and sundries flew out of the stands, like snowflakes falling in the sky, which was extremely embarrassing.
Is it realistic?
Indeed, he was once regarded as a savior by the fans, but now, he has completely become the enemy of the fans!
But who is to blame?
Shevchenko's defeat of Capello also proved that Mikhailichenko was right to use him, and although he could not guarantee that he would continue to perform well for 90, he could maintain a world-class performance for 15 minutes and defend his reputation as a world-class striker, which earned him respect.
England fans even gave the Ukrainian striker a round of applause after the game, when Shevchenko was about to enter the players' tunnel, extremely sarcastically, to express their dissatisfaction with Capello and the England national team.
"Croatia beat Andorra 0-2 away thanks to goals from KrasniΔ and Da Silva, England is finished!"
Jose Mourinho received a text message after the game, and when he read it, he shook his head and sighed regretfully.
Capello is a master-level gold medal coach, but he failed in the position of England manager, I have to say that it is a very worthy question, after all, it has nothing to do with his ability and his means!
After Croatia defeated Andorra, even if England won all the remaining five rounds of the group stage at the last moment, whether they can qualify depends on the face of others, and whether it is Croatia or Ukraine, it is difficult to make mistakes at such a critical moment.
That's why Mourinho will say, England is finished!
And with England is also Capello, in such a crucial game defeat, Capello will undoubtedly become the sinner of the entire English football world, will he be out of class? If class is out, who will take his place?
Xiao Yu believes that in the next few days, or even for a period of time, this problem will become a problem that will plague English football and fans, because in this case, the position of the head coach of the England national team has completely become a hot potato, and no one will want to touch it, and whoever touches it may be unlucky!
