833 Funeral Song of the Dreamer

readx;

Sometimes, when he lies in bed before going to bed, Van Gaal can't help but feel a rush of thought in his mind. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Kluivert, Van der Sar, Seedorf, Litmanen, Overmars, De Boer brothers, Reziger, Bogard, ...... One by one, the proud disciples of the past when he coached Ajax appeared vividly in Van Gaal's mind, they were celebrating wildly, and venting their emotions wildly.

But the most impressive thing came from Van Gaal himself, when he jumped into the air in anger after seeing his disciples encounter a rough defense by AC Milan, as if it were a karate slalom kick in Street Fighter, so that Capello on the side almost didn't go berserk.

In the 95 Champions League final, that game was thrilling, but he won the game!

It was the pinnacle of his life, and it was the pinnacle of his career, but it was precisely because of the first team he coached in his career that he reached such a high level that his requirements and ambitions for himself also swelled rapidly.

People are like this, they have to look at Shu, from a good point of view, it is called a pursuit, and from a bad point of view, then they are not satisfied!

"Luis, I think your biggest problem is not your pursuit and desire to win, but your arrogance and stubbornness, your arrogance forces you not only to win the game, but also to win beautifully, to win the opponent without any temper, and your stubbornness is to cling to your pride!"

In Barcelona back then, the guy who said this to Van Gaal is now standing not far from him, but his identity is no longer the unpopular assistant coach in the Barcelona team back then, but the head coach of the Red Rebels, the world's No. 1 team, and the Portuguese Jose, who is known as the world's No. 1 coach? Jose Mourinho.

It is undeniable that since Van Gaal took charge of Manchester City, he has always lost more and won less against the Red Rebels, and Mourinho always commented on Van Gaal, always smiling and saying, "I know very well what Van Gaal is thinking as a manager, but Van Gaal only knows what I am thinking as an assistant coach, but I am now the head coach of the Red Rebels!" ”

Every time he hears this, Van Gaal has an urge to be annoyed and angry!

Strictly speaking, Mourinho's words are very real, although it is unpleasant to hear, but it is a real truth, because over the years he has been in charge of the Red Rebels, not only has the tactical system of the Red Rebels gradually improved and reached great success, but even his own coaching level has also increased, and now his coaching ability has steadily stepped into the top three in the world.

It's hard to say about coaching ability, and there are too many things to cover, so it's really impossible to assess who is the number one in the world, but Mourinho can definitely occupy the top three, even if he has only coached a Red Rebel!

The layman looks at the excitement, and the insider looks at the doorway, just for what he has done to the tactical system and players of the Red Rebels over the years, and there are only a handful of managers in the world who can do this.

In the past, in the league, Van Gaal sometimes did not believe in evil, wanted to fight with the Red Rebels, sometimes took advantage, sometimes suffered a big loss, and this season Manchester City lost 5:1 on aggregate in the two legs of the league, especially the 0:2 loss at home to the Red Rebels, which made Van Gaal see clearly the difference in strength between the two teams.

Today's Manchester City lacks nothing, just a superstar in the midfield!

The so-called superstar is actually the kind of player who can stand up at critical moments, use his personal ability, change the situation of the game, and lead the team and teammates to victory, but looking at today's football, such players are rare.

Mourinho is lucky, Ronaldo, Kaka, Messi, or even Sergio Aguero, Ismail, Drogba, Cesc Fabregas and Michael? Johnson and others have the potential to be this type of player, but they all play under Jose Mourinho.

On the other hand, Manchester City, Ibrahimovic, Tevez, Sneijder and others are still lacking, and they are still only at the threshold of a first glimpse of superstars, but they have not yet become superstars as the outside media has overused.

Before the Champions League final, Van Gaal thought for a long time, and in the end he chose to compromise, he chose to defend, because he wanted to see if it was possible for Van Gaal, who had abandoned his principles, to play against the Red Rebels, like Alex Ferguson's Manchester United, but he was well aware of the team's shortcomings.

Manchester City are the slowest attacking team in the Premier League's top seven, with Ibrahimovic, Carlos Tevez, Sneijder Sneijder and Donny van der Vaart all being slow players, making it difficult for City's counter-attacking efforts to be effective.

To fill the gap, Louis van Gaal had to make adjustments, focusing his interception zone in midfield, starting from the midfield with fierce scrambling and launching counter-attacks on the spot when he got the chance.

But what he didn't expect was that he thought of it, but Mourinho thought of it too!

........................'Patrice Evra picked up the ball on the left and broke through quickly to Manchester City's half, Colo? Toure had to give up on Ronaldo and set his sights on Patrice Evra, but the Frenchman immediately passed the ball diagonally behind him, and Ronaldo received the ball and headed towards the hinterland of Manchester United, and his speed was very fast! ”

"In the left corner of the penalty area, Xiao Xiao Luo faced Campany, he used his speed to force a breakthrough, to the bottom line, suddenly a stop, Campany was shaken away, Xiao Xiao Luo shook Campany, Manchester City is in danger!"

Lucio, who was in the penalty area, saw that Campany was shaken away by Xiao Xiao Luo's personal ability, and immediately stepped forward to block, but Xiao Xiao Luo suddenly sent the ball lightly sideways.

"Passing, Xiao Xiaoluo chose to pass, Aguero made a sensitive and deliberate omission, confusing goalkeeper Buffon, Messi inserted in the back row, and the ball went in!"

"It was Messi, the Argentine youngster got ahead of Kolarov, sent the ball into the goal, grazed the near post, Buffon couldn't react to it at all, and the Red Rebels took the lead on the field just eight minutes after the opening!"

After the goal, Messi rushed up excitedly, and the whole person jumped on Xiao Xiaoluo's body, and then Aguero, Kaka and others rushed up, and everyone immediately gathered in a circle, celebrating the team's lead.

"This is a very beautiful team goal, Evra dribbled the ball over 40 meters to Manchester City's half, Xiao Xiaoluo used his personal ability to get rid of Campanele, but then did not choose to hit the goal himself, but crossed the middle of the penalty area, Aguero saw that he was blocked by Buffon angle, and did not choose to hit the goal, but deliberately confused Buffon, deliberately missed, which gave Messi the opportunity to push easily."

"The whole goal shows the tacit understanding of the Red Rebels' attacking combination up front, and their mastery of this kind of coordination!"

While celebrating the goal, the players did not forget to go to the sidelines to celebrate with Mourinho.

"Although this game has only been played for eight minutes, the Red Rebels have made five shots on goal, three of which are on target, and have scored once, while Manchester City have not had even one shot on goal so far, which is also related to the fact that they were embarrassed by the Red Rebels in this game."

"Mourinho started the game with an unusually aggressive and pressing tactic, the overall defensive formation was very pressed, and the full-backs were pushing forward, and Manchester City seemed to be obsessed with the occupation of the midfield, and the two sides launched a siege in the midfield, but the full-backs of the Red Rebels frequently stepped forward and looked more like full-backs, making them occupy a certain advantage in the midfield."

"The tactics of the Red Rebels can be very unrestrained, or they can be very delicate, although Manchester City launched a powerful interception and tackle in the midfield, but the Red Rebels stretched the line very wide, made full use of the two wings to make a fuss, and gave full play to the individual abilities of the stars on the side, Manchester City was a little tired of coping with this, the defensive effect was not great, and the Red Rebels created several chances!"

Live TV footage captured Jose Mourinho as he stretched out his right hand and pointed at the players on the pitch with a smile on his face, as if to warn them not to get too excited, the game has just begun.

'Yes, the game has just started, there are still 80 minutes left for Louis van Gaal and Manchester City to equalise!'

But as soon as the words were finished, De Rossi cut off Sneijder's ball in the middle, and immediately handed it to Alves on the right, the Brazilian stepped forward with the ball, and Messi had a beautiful cooperation, the Argentine went down to the bottom line, the ball on the right side, Kaka inserted in the middle of the box and stopped the ball with his chest and hit the goal.

Gianluigi Buffon was brilliant on this occasion, saving Kaka's close-range shot, but Aguero's follow-up shot was blocked by Lucio's foot.

"City's defence looks precarious, and if Louis van Gaal can't think of a way to turn the tide of the game, the Red Rebels could even continue to extend their advantage!"

Mourinho on the sidelines saw Aguero's shot blocked, and he was so angry that he almost rushed to the field.

"Jim, look, look, didn't that kid see Lucio? Obviously, I saw someone falling to the ground and sliding on the ground, and there was no one near you, can't you hit it after seeing the angle? ”

Cassel shook his head with a smile, he knew that Mourinho didn't really want to criticize Aguero, after all, Lucio defended well and decisively with this shot, and Aguero had no problem making up for the first time, after all, it was in the penalty area.

The reason why Mourinho is mad is that Van Gaal is looking this way.

This guy likes to pretend!

Sure enough, Mourinho had been pretending to be B staring at the pitch all the time, but when Van Gaal turned his head, he immediately looked over, "Hey, Jim, how's it going?" ”

"Well, 0:1, there is a certain advantage, we can play more patiently, control the ball, control the game, wait for Manchester City to make mistakes!" Kassel proposes a rational choice that anyone can think of at this moment.

"Oh my God, Jim, I'm not talking about the game, I'm talking about Luis, how does he look like him?" Jose Mourinho almost went crazy.

Cassel was speechless, shook his head and sighed, "It's very serious, my eyesight is not very good, a little presbyopia, I can't see very clearly." ”

"I told you to get a pair of reading glasses, but I just didn't listen, what a pity I couldn't see his expression!" Mourinho was muttering and complaining over there, and suddenly something came to mind, "You looked at him, he shouldn't be able to laugh, right?" ”

Cassel was really about to collapse, but he still nodded: "Well, if he can still laugh at this time, then he can really get the Tao!" ”

After hearing this, Mourinho laughed proudly, "I'll just say it, I'll say it!" Jim, lo and behold, exactly 10 minutes! It's been exactly 10 minutes, I didn't lie to you, did I? ”

Cassel was helpless, he knew that he was being put on the table by Mourinho again, who was obviously playing to provoke Van Gaal, and he happened to bump into it, and he was regarded as a trickster.

This bastard Portuguese magic bird is like this, thinking about how to hit his opponent all the time, even in the middle of the game, he will do everything possible to provoke the opponent and make the opponent lose his mind.

A manager who has lost his mind, a final in which he is temporarily down 1-0, everyone knows how low the odds are for Manchester City to win if something like this happens.

After taking a 0-1 lead in ........................, the Red Rebels obviously played more patiently, on the other hand, Manchester City's players, it is estimated that it is the first time to participate in such a key Champions League final, they lack experience, do not know how to deal with their emotions and position in the game, and play inevitably a little impatient. ”

"I was already at a disadvantage on the field, I was behind in the game, I was in a bad mood, I was impatient, and I would inevitably make mistakes, and for a team like the Red Rebels, once the opponent made a mistake, it would undoubtedly be a disaster!"

As soon as the on-site commentator finished speaking, a counterattack by Manchester City, after Tevez took the ball at the edge of the penalty area, he hurriedly got up and hit the goal, and the ball was far away from the goal.

The Argentine was also obviously very depressed, and fell his hand in indignation, ignoring Ibrahimovic, who had run out of space not far away, complaining that he did not pass, and turned and walked towards the midfield.

'So far in this game, Manchester City have had four shots on goal, three of which came from Tevez, three of which were long-range shots from outside the box, none of which were on target, and the other shot was cut in by Sneijder's back row, but his shot was blocked by John Terry in time.

"The biggest problem for Manchester City at the moment is that after the Red Rebels have slowed down the tempo appropriately, their defence has stabilized, but they still can't organize an effective counter-attack, or their counter-attacks are generally rushed and can't threaten the Red Rebels' goal at all, which is the biggest problem for Manchester City at the moment."

"There is a big taboo in the duel on the football field, that is, taboo frequently wastes opportunities, which can easily fuel the impatience of the players, and it is easy to be retaliated by the opponent, resulting in countless unjust cases that are not scored!"

Cech put the ball on the tee and took a few steps back, watching his team-mate's movement before suddenly accelerating and kicking the ball away.

This long pass, Cech drove slightly to the left, after all, the Red Rebels only Xiao Xiao Luo can act as a high point in the front position, but once Xiao Xiao Luo touches Campany and Lucio, or even Colo? Toure, his header didn't have much of an advantage.

The ball was quickly pushed back to midfield by Campani, and the Belgian youngster's performance at Manchester City in recent seasons has been solid and has received a lot of praise, but he must be responsible for the first goal conceded in this game, after all, it was his reckless snatch that caused Ronaldo to shake him off and have a chance to cross easily.

This time, Campany couldn't make another mistake as he got stuck in time to head Cech's long ball back, but when Van der Vaart was about to get the ball, Cesc Fabregas burst out of the way and kicked the ball into nearby Kaka.

The Brazilian is very elegant and calm, and in the crowd, he was seen to stop the ball easily, pick it up, pick it up, and then immediately accelerate to break through with the ball.

Don't look at Kaka's serious knee injury, but now he has healed under the scientific treatment in the laboratory, and now once he dribbles the ball up, although his speed is not at his peak, it is still very fast, and his technique is getting more and more detailed, and he is always watching around when dribbling the ball at high speed.

Kaka's dribbling route is very smart, grabbing Lucio and Kolarov to rush in the middle, making both of them hesitate, and finally Lucio came up to force it, after all, Kolarov still has to take care of a Messi.

But...... Wait a minute!

When Lucio stepped forward to force Kaka, Kolarov suddenly couldn't find Messi!

When he turned around, he only saw Messi's back wearing the No. 9 shirt of the Red Rebels, diagonally inserting into the penalty area.

The referee did not blow offside, it was obvious that at the moment of Kaka's pass, Messi and Kolarov were equal, this is where the Argentine was smart, after Kaka seduced Lucio, he stood on level with Kolarov, paused, and then accelerated after seeing Kaka's pass.

Messi was very fast, the ball came from behind him, stopped and flickered, shook the attacking goalkeeper Buffon, and easily pushed the empty goal, even if Campany and Colo? Toure tried desperately to keep the ball out of the net along the goal line, but was unable to do so.

“0:2! In the 33rd minute of the first half, the Red Rebels scored again, 0:2, Manchester City's situation was very serious, the Red Rebels were like a bamboo, Van Gaal's team struggled to support for half an hour, but finally fell behind by two goals! ”

"If the first goal is a teamwork and the tacit understanding of the players, then the second goal reflects the ball intelligence of the Red Rebels players, whether it is Kaka getting rid of the ball after receiving the ball, plugging in at high speed, and facing Lucio's smart straight plug behind him, or Messi's timely anti-offside success, shaking off Buffon after receiving the ball, it all reflects the players' superb ball quotient and their ability to read the game and analyze the game."

"The game has been going on for 33 minutes now, Manchester City is behind both on the field and in the score, unless Van Gaal can think of a good strategy in time to fill the loopholes in the current team's tactics, otherwise, with the current momentum of the Red Rebels, it is estimated that Manchester City will suffer!"

Van Gaal on the sidelines tilted his head, making it impossible to see what he was thinking, no one saw the flash of crystal oozing from the corner of his eye, for him, Messi's second goal had completely crushed his team, crushed his persistence and persistence, and sunk his dream.

Countless times, before going to bed, he longed to relive the magical journey that led Ajax to the Champions League, but countless times, the ironclad reality prevented him from the Champions League final.

But this time, he felt that the Champions League was within reach, but Messi's two goals were like two daggers stuck in his chest, there was no blood, only pain, piercing the heart!

That feeling, just like the Champions League final in '95, is unforgettable!
