Godfather Of Champions

It's a bit too far to consider such a vague thing now. Wood couldn't make it, Dunn decided to give up too much defense on the road. He decided to let Albertini and Arteta partner in the midfield starter.

The opponent has already scored two goals in his home court, and it makes no sense to go to the away court and want to hold the advantage of one goal. It is better to simply let go of the attack and also strive to score more than two away goals, so as to offset the away goals of Sporting Lisbon.

Therefore, this week, the Forest team has been practicing offense, with Arteta as the core of the offense, let him organize the offense. Dunn also took this opportunity to put the ideas in his mind into reality-let Arteta take this opportunity to gradually establish his organizational core position in the team.

Judging from the performance of recent substitute appearances, Dunn confirmed that Arteta here is no different from the Arteta he knows. The strength and talent are still there, so he has the potential to become the core of the organization. Dunn had previously worried that his arrival would change the abilities of other players. Now it seems that most of them have maintained the level they should have.

After three days of training in Nottingham, the Forest team flew to Lisbon, the capital of Portugal. There, two days of adaptability training took place, familiar with the venue, held a press conference... etc.

From the moment he got off the plane and set foot on the land of Lisbon, Dunn felt all kinds of hostility from the home court. Who told them to abolish Sporting's main midfielder in the last round, and still ridicule Pesero so relentlessly at the press conference after the game?

Now, they are going to start their road trip under tremendous pressure.

Two days before the game, the Forest team's training always had Sporting Lisbon fans coming to the sidelines to carry out various harassment. So Chris Lac had to ask Portugal to block the training ground.

It was even worse on the day of the game.

The Alvalad stadium was full of seats. From the time the Forest team players entered the field, harsh boos often sounded. In fact, more boos were directed at Tony Dunn, the head coach of the Forest team.

Today's Dunn is no longer the football coach who drove a duck on the shelf two years ago. It is not the first time I have been booed by the fans. It's just that there are fewer people and more people. There is no trick. He had long ignored it. Now his whole mind is put in the game.

From the beginning of the game, the tactics that both sides insisted on in this game were very clear.

Because there are two away goals in hand and only one goal behind. Sporting Lisbon was not in a hurry. They used defensive counterattack tactics that surprised the commentators at home.

Nottingham Forest also unexpectedly put up an attack formation.

The two teams seem to have changed home and away.

From the first second of the game, the Forest team used their opportunity to kick-off and launched a fierce attack on the hinterland of Sporting Lisbon.

However, Sporting Lisbon without Roschenbach has turned defense into the task of the team-everyone must participate in defense, first for the purpose of not losing the ball at home, and then waiting for the opportunity to counterattack.

George Wood's red card is a chain reaction, and Pesero knows this very well. The forest team now dare not defend the advantage of that goal in the away game, as long as they are scored by Sporting Lisbon, they are finished. So the Forest team will definitely fight for goals in this game, the more the better.

Pesero is to seize the opponent's mentality, first hold it firmly, wait until the Forest team starts to become impatient, and then suddenly launch a counterattack. With only one ball, they can defeat the Forest team.

Tony Dunn practiced offense for a week, while Jose Pesero practiced defense for a week. The two of them are right.

By the end of the first half, the Forest team tried their best to break through the home team's gate. Instead, Sporting Lisbon kept defending and courageously amidst the cheers of the home fans. The regular sneak attacks made the Forest team's defense turbulent and Van der Sar was in a hurry. .

After the intermission, the Forest team continued to attack in the second half. But also began to pay attention to defense. Dunn intends to use offense to suppress the opponent's offense, to play a role that defense can also play.

The score has always been stalemate, and the tide of the Forest team's offensive allowed Sporting Lisbon to spend more energy on defense. The minute and the second passed. Just when everyone thought that the Forest team would take the quarter-finals like this, with four minutes left in the game before the injury time, Sporting Lisbon scored.

It was not Sporting who insisted on a counterattack for 86 minutes, but a corner kick.

The forest team's defense loosened at the last moment, Matthew Epson failed to keep up with his goal, and a moment of negligence caused irreparable results.

Sporting Lisboa leads Nottingham by 1:0! This score is maintained to the end, Sporting Lisbon will rely on more away goals to eliminate Nottingham Forest.

Of course the Forest team is not willing. At the last moment, Dunn also used the third place for substitution, replaced by forward Bendtner and center defender Epson.

Counting the three minutes of stoppage time, in the last seven minutes, the Forest team actually had only Hierro a guard on the field. Leighton Barnes and Zimbanda received Dunn’s instructions to let them leave it alone. Defensive, full attack.

The formation of the Forest team became a very, very strange 1333-a defender, two full-backs moved forward to become a midfielder, and Albertini in line.

Dunn's style of breaking the boat is not to defend at all, even so, the Forest team did not get the result they wanted at the Alvalade Stadium.

When the German referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, there was cheers in the Alvalade stadium, and the players of Sporting Lisbon embraced to celebrate their difficult victory.

The players of Nottingham Forest fell on the field, gasping for breath, unwilling to look at their happy opponents.

Dunn did not feel dissatisfied or sad about this. In Eastwood, he was seriously injured and taken to the hospital. When George Wood was sent off with a red card for retaliation, the result had already appeared in his mind.

Watching the opponents celebrating the victory, listening to the cheers from the stands of the Alvalade Stadium, waves were higher than waves.

Dunn turned his head and said to David Chris Luck next to him: "I think... you are right, David. I made a big mistake, a very, very big mistake... now I have failed."
