Green Life

Volume 6 Chapter 76

The Olympic Stadium in Kyiv has been overcrowded and restless since the morning of the final. English fans and Italian fans are unmatched in terms of wildness.

To put it bluntly, these two countries have the most football hooligans, if some religious countries in Central Europe are excluded.

Needless to say, England, since the birth of the European Cup, this is the first time they have been able to touch the turf of the final, but Italy is not much better. Compared with the World Cup, their results in the European Cup are also much inferior.

The only time they won the cup dates back to 44 years ago, when the third European Cup was held, it was already a matter of the year of the monkey.

No matter which team can win the championship tonight, it will be a great breakthrough for their own country's European Cup historical record. Their attention is no less than the World Cup, whether it is fans, media, or the players themselves.

"The Italian team is not easy to play", Capello emphasized again in the early morning training. The British media's bragging about them these days is too nasty, and he has to cool down the team again and again.

In this final, a calm mind is more important than any tactics. As an Italian, he certainly knows what it means if he makes a mistake on the court tonight and makes unnecessary mistakes.

Whether it's because of overexcitement or nervousness, it will be a disaster, because once Italy is reassured to fight back, England must press out.

At that time, the recovery speed of the two central defenders will become England's Achilles' heel, and he does not believe that Prandelli cannot see this.

Italy's counterattack is different from Portugal's. They are more organized and efficient, relying on the tactics of the whole team rather than one or two arrows on the front line.

"Stand still, pay attention to the distance between you, don't let them cut off the connection easily..." Capello directed the training in person during the rare two days, shouting from time to time.

On the main side, in addition to those unshakable positions, Lampard is also on the list, wearing a main vest, firmly in the area behind the midfield, taking on the role of a transitional player.

That's right, in tonight's decisive battle, Capello used Lampard again. What he fancy is the mentality and experience of a veteran.

Italy does not run all over the court. Neither Balotelli nor Cassano run wild in the frontcourt. There is no need for Milner to help defend everywhere.

The most important thing now is the sense of position. In this regard, Milner is obviously not as good as Lampard, and as long as he is in a good position, Capello believes that Italy's ability to fight in battle is not that strong.

The reason why Germany lost was because they believed too much that they could win, which led to the offensive mentality of the players, allowing Italy to seize two consecutive counterattack opportunities.

Luck is sometimes just a derivative of the on-the-spot tactical game. If Germany is more stable, the result may be different.

As for the number one superstar in the team, Ma Keqin, he has spoken a lot less these days, and his expression is also different from before. He didn't even do this during the World Cup finals in South Africa.

He devotes himself to every training session, and his work and rest time is so precise that he seems to have fallen into his own world.

"He is highly concentrated, he is polishing his state, and he is also brewing emotions." Captain Gerrard stopped the coaching staff and team doctor who were about to intervene, "Don't disturb him..."

He had seen this kind of situation once when he was in Liverpool, that is when he played Barcelona in the Champions League. A few days before the game, Mark Qin was also like this, extremely focused.

...

"The Italian team is not easy to play", Zhang Lu also said this sentence in the match analysis program during the day, "Especially Italy in the final has always been tough."

"England, the British media I have seen in the past two days are quite optimistic, but the players and Capello themselves have to adjust their mentality, otherwise they will suffer in the final."

"Yes, the two teams almost announced their starting rosters in advance after lunch, let's take a look first," Zhan Jun said at this time,

At the same time, the big screen behind him called out the display.

England:

Goalkeeper: Joe Hart

Defenders: Ashley Cole, Terry, Ferdinand, Glenn Johnson

Midfielders: Barry, Lampard, Maxine, Rooney, Gerrard

Forward: Carroll

Italy:

Defenders: Abate, Chiellini, Barzagli, Bonucci

Midfielders: Marchisio, De Rossi, Pirlo, Montolivo

Forwards: Balotelli, Cassano

"The two teams almost have their own regular starting lists, and Lampard in the England team has returned to the starting lineup again. It seems that the match against Portugal is just a fine-tuning of Capello," Zhan Jun said.

"Well," Zhang Lu nodded, and began to analyze the playing styles of the two teams, "England's formation is a bit like 451, but we all know that it really depends on how the three players run, namely President Ma, Gerrard and With Rooney, the three of them can basically be said to be the source of England's attack."

"These three players can play side to side, top to bottom, what happens to England tonight depends mainly on them"

"As for Italy, the reported 442, in fact, their style of play is 4312, Marchisio and De Rossi are equivalent to double defensive midfielders to protect Pirlo, Montolivo is equivalent to the front midfielder, he and Cassano, Very active in the frontcourt position”

"Yes", Huang Jianxiang also said, "In the game, we often see Cassano pulling the side"

"Well," Zhang Lu nodded, "Needless to say about Italy's offense, almost 90% of the balls come from Pirlo's feet, and the style of play is also the well-known anti-reverse, but can you play it?" To win him, you have to watch it on the court to know.”

"Yes," Zhan Jun said, "so tonight's duel between President Ma and Pirlo is also quite eye-catching, and the mainstream media in European football are also focusing on this game."

At this time, the news extracted from the European media was called up on the big screen behind them.

"Let's take a look. This is a report from the famous European football tactics commentary media "442". They said that tonight's game will be Mark's battle for the throne. If he can lead the team to victory, then his reputation in European football His status will catch up to Zidane!"

"Also, this is Beckenbauer's interview," Huang Jianxiang continued, "He said that he is optimistic about England and has lessons learned from Germany. He feels that England will not give Italy an easy chance to score, and it is very likely that the game will be decided. It's Mark and Pirlo, but Pirlo's offensive ability is much inferior to Mark's..."

Almost all the major mainstream media in Europe paid attention to and commented on this game. One can imagine the enthusiasm and restlessness at this time.

Among them, the most eye-catching one is the direct confrontation between two generations of midfield masters. I believe tonight will detonate the football world.

"Jianxiang", Zhan Jun asked with a smile, "Are you still supporting Italy tonight?"

"Hey," Zhang Lu couldn't help laughing.

After all, the story of the great left back was too famous, and it also exposed his personal tendencies.

"Hey," Huang Jianxiang scratched his head, "Actually, from an emotional point of view, Director Zhang and I have commented on Serie A for so many years, so there must be more or less a tendency..."

"But tonight is different. Mr. Ma is here, so we Chinese can't have any other home team in our hearts, and this is such an important match for Mr. Ma. I still hope that Mr. Ma will be crowned..."

One World Cup can almost achieve a generation of banners, such as Lone Wolf in 1996, Ronaldo in 2002, and Mark Qin in 2010. If you win consecutive championships in such major international cups, you will become a generation of kings.

This is especially true in Europe. The influence of the European Cup is several blocks away from other intercontinental cups. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a small World Cup. Dane's France, and talent-blown Spain.

But how similar is England today to France in 2000? In 1998, no one thought that France would win the championship, which made Zidane, just like no one in South Africa thought that England would win, and finally made Mark Qin.

Now, the whole of Europe, except Italy, is waiting for Mark Qin to complete the great achievements that Zidane has accomplished. His debut is even brighter than Zidane, and now his brilliance has caught up with Zidane.

And not only in Europe, Chinese fans all over the world are also waiting for this moment. It was a surprise two years ago, so today they want to witness a Chinese star rewrite the history of football.

James, the little emperor of the United States, also sent his blessings to Mark Qin after winning his NBA championship: I believe that my friends can do it, just like what I did in the NBA, we are all very strong in our hearts warrior!

Restlessness, everything is restlessness!

Except for the one who really wants to fight.

Pirlo, as usual, finished the training very normally, and there was no abnormality on his face.

In an interview, he only gave a formulaic answer: "Mark? I don't need to talk about him. I didn't expect him to achieve what he is today, but the most important thing now is that we want to win the championship."

On the contrary, his teammates were more enthusiastic than him, "We believe in Andre, he has never disappointed, and he will lead us to the final victory"

And what about Mark Qin?

"What? He fell asleep?" Neville asked in disbelief with wide-eyed eyes. Milner, his roommate for the past two days, shrugged and gently opened the door.

I saw Ma Keqin lying on his side on the bed, hugging the quilt, sleeping soundly, but the problem was that it was almost time for them to leave!

"My heart is so big..." Neville shook his head and thought to himself, "Okay, let him sleep for a while, and wake him up when we officially set off in 20 minutes."

"Oh", Neville, who remembered something, took two steps and then turned around and said, "help him tidy up, so that he won't be in a hurry for a while."

"He packed it up before going to bed..."

"Tsk," Neville nodded.

The final decisive battle still came as promised. The restlessness outside and the peace inside the two teams were like two completely different worlds.

Here, just a few miles from the Olympic Stadium in Kyiv, they could say they were on their doorstep.

Since Italy is not in this city, they set off earlier than England, and they have already arrived in the city.

There was a bang, and the streets and alleys of Kyiv were already filled with fans from all over the world. The blue sea water and white flames were particularly distinct.

"Go back, bloody Brit!"

"Fuck you, damn fascist..."

"England shall prevail, the Queen bless..."

"Italy, Italy..."

Conflicts are unavoidable. Tens of thousands of police forces are facing the enemy anytime, anywhere, armed with shields and electric batons, and deploy defenses layer by layer from the main street to the periphery of the stadium!

"Ah..." Ma Keqin yawned, looking at Milner who was patting him on the side of the bed, "Let's go..."

"Really?" He looked up at the alarm clock hanging on the wall, "Well..., I slept so soundly..."

"Bless the Queen, England will win...", the moment he opened the window, it was like a heavy hammer, and the noise came suddenly!

"Looks like a lot of people are here"

"You didn't see it, the door is blocked, and the head is suggesting that the local police urgently clear it, which is worse than South Africa, tsk," Milner shook his head, looking in disbelief.

Mark looked at the crowded street and smiled, then, come on...
