Red Rebels

"The ball is in!" Andy Gray's voice echoed on countless live TV sets around the world.

"It's so beautiful. A sharp breakthrough from the left. Let us remember this name. Theo Walcott, a boy who is only 16 years old. In his first touch of the ball, he passed two opponents. The player cuts inside, and while being pressed, he deftly passes behind him and assists his teammate to score!”

Through the slow-motion playback, you can see how lightly Walcott passed Micah Richards and Mascherano, and then what he gave when facing Michael Dawson's pressing. How easy it is to hit a through ball.

"The moment he passed Richards and Mascherano, he had obviously seen the loopholes in Droisden's defense. He had already planned it. After Michael Dawson made the move, he would A through ball, which just reflects his excellent football intelligence and ability to read the game."

Martin Taylor was full of praise for Theo Walcott's performance.

"Speed, explosive power, changes of speed and direction, coupled with exquisite passing skills, all make people believe that he is another rising star in the youth training camp. At the same time, we can also see from him To the characteristics of the youth academy.”

"Ismael, Messi, Michael Johnson, Mikel, Curtis, Aguero and other young generations, plus Fabregas, Ronaldinho, Kaká, Terry and others joined the team midway They are semi-finished products, they all have excellent football intelligence, they are like high-quality products produced on the same assembly line."

Andy Gray couldn't help but marvel, "Some people once thought that watching the game is a kind of enjoyment. I deeply agree, but I can't find the reason. I just feel that watching them play is very comfortable, no matter how depressing it is. There are highlights in every game.”

"Later I understood that it is football wisdom, the wisdom of playing football shown by the players on the field. They are not blindly chasing the ball, nor blindly blocking the space. They can always pass through all kinds of ways. Such support and cooperation can disrupt the opponent's defense and offense."

"It's like Cesc Fabregas's pass just now. If Walcott doesn't retreat, Cesc Fabregas will definitely lose the ball. When the time comes, Droylsden will counterattack, but as soon as Walcott retreats, Fabregas passed the ball, and he just used his personal skills and awareness to pass two people, drive the ball towards the goal, and assist Villa to score."

"From the perspective of the whole process, this goal can only be said to be an exquisite coordination at best. To go deeper, Walcott's skills and speed are excellent, but upon closer inspection, such coordination is not rare. It can only be said that it is A flash of football intelligence from the whole team.”

"Andy, do you remember what Martin Samuel said?" Taylor asked with a smile.

Andy Gray smiled and nodded: "They don't spend a lot of money on signings, because they know very well that it is difficult for foreign players to integrate into the team's tactical system in a short period of time, but semi-youth training players including Alves can rely on their opponents." Familiarity and understanding of tactics, integrating into the team in the shortest possible time.”

"The Guardian once thought about analyzing the tactical system, but in the end they could only use one word to describe it, net! They believed that the tactics, running, and passing routes were like a large, densely woven net. , one link after another, after years of improvement, this set of tactics has been created and matured."

"The net can be everywhere and can cover anything that enters this area, so it has the sharpest offense and the most unbreakable defense. Many people even think that if players are always in an ideal state, Will be hard to beat!”

"The undefeated championship in the 03/04 season was a great improvement in tactics, but it was not mature and stable enough. The reason why they won the championship that season was that Manchester United's form declined sharply, and Arsenal and Chelsea failed to perform in their ideal form. , especially Arsenal's defense, was defeated in two games, which led to the final victory.

"

"In the 2004/05 season, it can be said that the tactics have reached their peak, and the players have also made great progress. Stars such as Ronaldinho and Kaká have matured, but they encountered a more abnormal Chelsea. But after After the low point in the middle of the season, they quickly adjusted, united and won the Champions League."

"Some people say that this season should have a bumper harvest, but we should also see that Liverpool is in great shape, Chelsea is performing steadily, Manchester City is rising rapidly, Manchester United is old and everlasting, and although Arsenal is at a low ebb, Wenger's training of players has The strength cannot be underestimated, and coupled with Everton and other traditional teams that are weaker but not without upsets, it is undoubtedly more difficult for the current Premier League to win the championship than any other league in the world."

"With six of the most popular teams for the title, five traditional strong teams that are steadily improving, plus newly promoted teams like West Ham United and Droylsden, the competition in the Premier League this season is so fierce that it can be said to be far greater. More than any previous season.”

Andy Gray is obviously looking forward to the current situation in the Premier League. The competition is fierce, which means that the game will become more and more exciting. Now even newly promoted teams like Droylsden can bring huge trouble to Manchester United, Chelsea, and others. What about the team?

With the massive investments made by capital giants such as Roman Abramovich and Al Fahim after acquiring the Premier League, several teams such as Liverpool, Birmingham and West Ham United have also come under the prying eyes of capital.

When more capital giants like Abramovich and Al Fahim enter the Premier League, and subject to the restrictions of the Premier League's regulations, they invest huge sums of money into the club to run the team, then it will be the Premier League that benefits in the end.

Some people are already saying that according to the current development trend of the Premier League, by the time the broadcast contract expires in 2007, the Premier League's three-year broadcast fees from 2007 to 2010 are likely to exceed 2 billion pounds, and the Premier League has also formulated A series of strategies have been developed to promote the overseas copyright of the Premier League.

It is precisely because of the sudden power of the Premier League and the prosperity of the league that the European Union has begun to pay attention to this point. They are reviewing whether the Premier League broadcast rights are suspected of being a monopoly.

…………Although Martin Taylor and Andy Gray talked a lot off the field, on the live broadcast they just took advantage of the break between Villa and Andy to celebrate the goal. After the game resumed, they turned the conversation to the game.

It should be said that Walcott seemed to inject a breath of fresh air into the game after he came on the field, especially his dribbling and cutting inside on the left, which showed his outstanding personal abilities, especially his speed.

One of the times he dribbled the ball wildly, facing Ashley Young who was returning to defend. No matter how hard the latter chased him, he couldn't catch up with Walcott who was racing wildly on the left, but the latter's cross was blocked by Jagel. The ball cleared the ball and destroyed a sharp wing advance.

Although he failed to help the team score, Walcott's outstanding performance on the left caused a sensation in the stadium.

Mourinho saw that Villa was also a little exhausted and immediately replaced him with Ismail.

The two main players of last season's indoor football championship team have now joined forces again in the league. Their first cooperation showed their tacit understanding with each other.

It was Walcott who got the ball on the left, and Ismail came over to respond. Walcott passed the ball to Ismail in a small gap, and then moved to the center.

Ismail didn't stick to the ball and knocked back directly. He also ran into the penalty area. Walcott caught the ball while running and then knocked back. By this time, Ismail had already reached the penalty area and directly hit the ball. Hit the door with your feet.

Joe Hart performed steadily and blocked Ismail's shooting angle early, causing the latter's shot to be saved by him. However, the outstanding performance of the two youth training teenagers and their tacit understanding still made the scene The fans watched with gusto.

Although Walcott performed amazingly after coming on the field, it does not mean that he has no shortcomings. His physical confrontation ability is slightly weaker, which makes it difficult for him to take advantage of his skills and speed once he faces an opponent's close pressing. After all, He is only 16 years old.

However, as a smart player, he knows that he should use his strengths and avoid his weaknesses.

"Walcott has a lot of physical fitness. After coming on the field, he showed a strong impact on the left and center. He completely activated the frontcourt offense and disintegrated the trap specially laid by Pellegrini. Mourinho Rinho replaced Villa with Ismail, obviously to strengthen the attack!"

Time was running out. Unwilling to be tied at home, they increased their efforts in attack. Even the two full-backs Lahm and Alves frequently moved forward and devoted themselves to the attack. This made Deroys appear. He was so pressed that he could hardly breathe.

In the 84th minute of the game, Alves on the right could not find a chance and passed the ball to the center. Fabregas stepped forward to receive the ball, took a few steps, and passed it to the feet of Ismail in front.

Ismail pressed Michael Dawson to catch the ball and wanted to turn around, but the latter was stuck in a very good position and did not give Ismail a chance to easily turn around. The latter had no choice but to pass to the left side. of Walcott.

The little tiger cut from the left to the center. He was not timid at all because the opponent's defense in the center was stronger. Instead, he saw the opportunity and suddenly started after receiving the ball. He just used it from the outside of the penalty area before Mascherano. The right foot curled the ball and shot.

The speed of this long-range shot was not very fast, but the angle was absolutely tricky. It bypassed Droisden's defender, drew a beautiful arc, and went straight into the dead center of the goal.

Joe Hart reacted very quickly and hit the ball with one hand, but he fell to the ground.

Ronaldinho, who was switched to the right wing, didn't perform very well in the entire second half. After all, he played the whole game in the national team, and his current physical fitness is also a bit weak. In addition, Leighton Barnes was against him throughout the game. He was closely guarded, which prevented him from performing very well.

But when Walcott shot, he happened to be running into the penalty area. After all, he wanted to run into a gap and wait for Walcott's pass.

Although it was not a pass, the ball still came!

Ronaldinho stopped the ball with his chest and volleyed directly with his right foot!

The ball passed over Joe Hart who fell to the ground and went straight into the corner of the goal net, 2:1!

Another victory, successfully reversing Droylsden!

Ronaldinho was so excited that he scored the winning goal. He didn't even care about the rule of not taking off his jersey after scoring. He took off his jersey directly, ran all the way to the corner flag, and hissed at the people in the stands who had already stood up. The fans who were shouting at the top of their lungs roared loudly!

He's not angry, he's venting, he's celebrating!

Teammates came over one by one to celebrate Ronaldinho's goal, and they were there together to accept the cheers and cheers from the fans.

When they were over the excitement of scoring a goal and walked back, the referee ran over and showed Ronaldinho a yellow card, but the Portuguese suddenly stretched out his hand and gave the opponent a polite handshake.

This made the referee unable to react, and he was puzzled only after the hand was over.

I showed him a yellow card, but why did he shake my hand instead, as if to thank me?

Don't get me wrong, Ronaldinho didn't want to shuffle the cards, because this was his first yellow card this season, nor did he want to ridicule the referee, but he was so happy at the time that he even felt excited about receiving a yellow card.

However, as the referee blew the whistle to end the game, and as the players dragged their exhausted bodies to the locker room one by one, what awaited Ronaldinho was Mourinho's rebuke.

In Mourinho's words, a player receiving a yellow card can be big or small. If Ronaldinho has already received a yellow card before, then if he takes off his clothes to celebrate, wouldn't it be a red card? Then for him, there will be one less person. The battle may even lead to another draw with Droylsden, or even a comeback.

What Ronaldinho fears most is Mourinho. After being reprimanded, he could only be submissive and dare not say anything. Sister-in-law {half-/-floating=(.*)+生-Red Rebel

However, Mourinho is not blindly strong, he also has clear rewards and punishments.

"Okay, although you received a yellow card, that goal was really good and it was crucial for us!"

Following Mourinho's words, there was an uproar in the locker room, which was originally too timid to come out. The players were so excited that they almost jumped up, especially Theo Walcott, who was playing for the first time. Two assists, coupled with his outstanding performance on the left, were enough to make the 16-year-old young player famous in one fell swoop.

It can be said that Mourinho's bet was right. It was Walcott's appearance that revived the weak attack. It was also his two assists that helped the team reverse Droysden.

I believe that with this outstanding performance, tomorrow's major European sports newspapers will rush to report on this rising star, and may even render him as another star of hope for England.

Although in Mourinho's heart, Walcott deserves such praise, after all, he has strength and talent, but the Portuguese does not think it is a good thing for Walcott to receive such praise at this time, after all, he is only 16 years old.

When dealing with young people, we should indeed give them opportunities and patience, but sometimes we should also let them suffer a little, so that they will understand that everything they get is hard-won.
