Vol 5 Chapter 466: Still that Silva!

Wan Sheng attaches great importance to the FA Cup final.

Before the game, he and his assistant coaches studied Portsmouth's recent games, and also developed the final play tactics.

To play the league, it is necessary to fight to get more victories; to play the finals is the opposite, because the outcome of a game can determine the winner's ownership, so it must be 'stable'.

Redknapp's Portsmouth must be very 'stable', and Wansheng's demands on the team are also 'stable'.

In the locker room before the game, Wan Sheng said, "Don't worry about scoring goals, controlling football, and controlling the game. To show what we are best at, I believe we have a strength advantage, so don't give them any chance."

Finally, he added a sentence, "Even if it is a penalty shootout, we are not afraid, so don't give them any chance!"

Wan Sheng waved his fists and looked very serious, staying in the minds of every player.

After that, with the expectations of all Manchester City supporters, they stepped into the new Wembley Stadium.

The New Wembley Stadium is already overcrowded.

As the defending champion of the FA Cup last season, Manchester City have won the Community Shield Cup, the League Cup, and the League Championship this season. The FA Cup is their fourth championship.

The FA Cup final is concerned by every fan, so there are many fans who come to support Manchester City. There are 30,000 fans from Manchester.

There are also many fans in Portsmouth, according to statistics there are nearly 18,000 people.

Although the number is slightly less, the cries of 18,000 people are enough to cover all parts of the stadium.

When the players of the two teams stepped into the game, the stadium shouted one after another, some supporting Manchester City, some supporting Portsmouth, and many neutral fans shouted, making the stadium atmosphere very hot.

The game is about to start.

Portsmouth coach Redknapp followed the two players into the stadium, and when he reached the coach, he looked to the side.

Wan Sheng was also walking to the position, while talking to Diamares, as if feeling the goal of staring at himself, he also turned his head and glanced at Redknapp.

The two teams smiled and nodded.

Looking at the young face on the opposite side, Redknapp couldn't help but sigh the other side's youth, and he was more than sixty years old, more than doubled in age, but the two became opponents in the game.

This is not the first time the two have met.

Wan Sheng has coached Derby County and Manchester City for several seasons, and has played with Redknapp many times, but most of them are leagues, and the victory or defeat has little effect.

It's different now.

FA Cup final.

Losing to Manchester City in the league is actually nothing. For a Premier League midfielder, losing to the defending champion for two consecutive years, even his own fans can understand.

But the FA Cup final is directly related to the championship. The English FA Cup has a special meaning to the English club. It also has a very important position in the hearts of English fans. Many fans believe that the FA Cup is more important than the league championship.

So this champion must be won.

Redknapp couldn't help but think of what the club's chairman Alexander Gadamark said to him yesterday, "Harry, try your best to win, this is a rare opportunity for Portsmouth to get close to the championship. I hope tomorrow will give the club a second It will be a great moment to win the FA Cup! "

Alexander Gadamark ’s voice seemed to be still in his ears, but Redknapp sat in the seat and looked at the game with only a wry smile, and rich coaching experience, let him know what to do to have a better chance of winning, but ... the opponent is Manchester City, is there really a chance?

Until now, I can only watch the game.

Redknapp ’s style of play was ‘stable’, stabilizing the lineup, tenacious defense, and tough game style. In short, Portsmouth spent most of his energy on defense.

This is also the best way they want to beat Manchester City.

Fighting head-to-head with Manchester City, the chances of winning are too slim. The gap between the strengths of the players of the two teams is a bit large. The offensive ability is not on an order of magnitude, so defense is the best choice.

Redknapp didn't even consider offensive, he just put Benjani Mvaruvari alone at the forefront, and other players must participate in the defense.

Portsmouth has two slightly famous strikers, one is Nugent and the other is Kanu. In the summer, both of them are expected to have great expectations, but the season has passed and the team has performed best. It was 'third striker' Benjani Mwaruari.

Mvaruvari was born in Bulawayo, and he rolled in domestic leagues as a teenager. He went abroad to join the South African club Yomo Universe in 1999, and gradually became famous. During this period, he was loaned to the Swiss grasshoppers.

Appreciated by Guy Lu, Mvaruwari moved to Ligue 1 Auxerre two years later and initially developed smoothly, but when Jakissin Sintini took over as a teacher, he lost his starting seat.

Playing as a substitute in Ligue 1 is worse than playing in the Premier League. Mvaruwari thought so, so in January 2006 he joined Portsmouth for £ 4.1 million.

Last season, Mvaruvari became Portsmouth ’s main striker, but his 36 appearances in which he scored only six goals made him poorly stable. After the arrival of Nugent, he could not Do not give up the main position.

No one expected that after being squeezed out of the main position, Mvaruwari broke out, 27 league appearances, 12 goals, let him replace Nugent and Kanu, becoming the team's absolute starter .

Now in the FA Cup final, Redknapp also hopes to rely on Mwaruari's personal ability to help Portsmouth threaten Manchester City's goal.

Redknapp's tactics are well formulated.

Defense, counterattack.

Defensive means relying on the efforts of the entire team to carry out intensive defense, and counterattack depends on the play of Mvaruvari. This style of play is a good way for small teams to defeat large teams.

But the game is a game, not an imagination.

Everything went according to Redknapp's ideas. Portsmouth definitely had a chance to win, but there were always 'accidents' in the game.

This 'accident' did not appear in the Portsmouth team, but in the Manchester City team.

There are too many stars in Manchester City!

Morris, Silva, Ozil, Darren-Bent, Torres ... Named one by one, can make people thumbs up, compared to Portsmouth's lineup, Manchester City's lineup It's so gorgeous.

There are many stars, there is a benefit.

It's like the ‘Galaxy Battleship’ that once thrived in European football. In their game, there is no definite play at all. Many goals are played by the stars.

There are many ‘Galaxy Battleship’ stars, and one star can burst out, and winning the game is no problem.

The same is now true of Manchester City.

Manchester City may not be able to catch up with the ‘Galaxy Battleship’, but compared to Portsmouth, it can be described as ‘many stars’.

Manchester City's tactics are also very conservative, but they also completely suppress Portsmouth's very passive play. However, Manchester City's formation is not so advanced. They still pay attention to defense.

The word "dull" was written from the beginning of the match between the two teams.

However, being dull does not mean not scoring.

At the 17th minute of the game, the first goal appeared.

This was an 'accident' that happened to Manchester City players and was played by Manchester City midfielder David Silva.

Ten meters away from the penalty area, after receiving a pass from Morris, David Silva suddenly started to pass through the opposing midfielder Montari, and then on the left side of the penalty area, at a 30-degree angle to the goal, he Suddenly chose to shoot.

The shooting position is very bad, mainly because the angle is too small.

When Silva finished shooting, almost no one was optimistic about scoring a goal, but the football crossed an arc and went straight to the far corner of Portsmouth.

Portsmouth goalkeeper and former Manchester City goalkeeper David James reacted a little slower. Perhaps he did not expect Silva to shoot suddenly. In short, when he realized the danger, it was too late.

The football fell straight into the goal and hit the side net, making everyone inexplicable.

"Goal scored ...?"

Sky Sports commentator George Woodgate's tone can also hear his surprise at the goal.

When David Silva just started, he even thought it was a long pass. Darren Bent, who was keeping up, had a chance to grab the back, but the football flew directly into the goal, leaving him with no reaction time. .

After deciding on the goal, George Woodgate exclaimed, "Yes in! 1 to 0, David Silva used a sudden shot to help Manchester City take the lead!"

Suddenly all the Manchester City fans cheered!

From the first minute of the opening to the time just before, the game between the two sides has been very dull. The analysis of the narrator is that both sides are very conservative, and they are absolutely very serious. The people who are experienced in watching the finals are also clear. The best scenes are played, because both sides often play very conservatively in order to avoid problems and give opponents no chance.

It's the same in this game ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ Obviously Manchester City have been trying to control the game with ball control, and Portsmouth retreated and stabilized the defense in the first minute of the opening.

Neither team has the idea of ​​scoring a quick goal to gain a lead.

So the game scene made people drowsy.

However, Silva's goal awakened everyone. They did not expect that Manchester City took the lead after more than ten minutes of the game.

"This goal is entirely Silva's personal ability! This Spanish genius has completely grown up in Manchester City!"

"Some people said that Silva has not performed as well as Ozil recently, but now he relies on his personal ability to score a goal in the FA Cup final ..."

"That's enough to explain everything!"

"Silva is still that Silva, he is a genius, he is one of the best players in the Premier League." (To be continued.)
