Red Rebels

765 Eastern Champions Cup

After the Red Rebels came to Dubai for a week-long training camp, they ushered in a warm-up match against the Russell Club at the training ground rented by the Red Rebels.

In this game, Mourinho used all his main players to play in the first half. The goalkeeper was Cech. The defense line from left to right was Evra, Terry, Curtis, and Alves. The double defensive midfielder was Francesco. Bregas and Essien, the attacking midfielder is Kaka, the double forwards are Ronaldinho and Messi, and the lone forward is Aguero.

The team still uses a 4-tactic, but Aguero, Ronaldinho and Messi are more like three forwards, but their positions move erratically between the forward and midfielder, that is, between the opponent's defender and midfielder. The area between two lines.

This area is very troublesome. The midfielder needs to retreat to defend and the defender needs to attack. These are areas where it is easy to lose position. The three players of the Red Rebels are already familiar with finding this area. They can always find it anytime and anywhere. Enter this area, trick the defender into losing their position, and then deliver a fatal blow.

Although the training camp had just begun and the players were undergoing intense training, throughout the first half, the Red Rebels still showed a strong ability to control the game. Messi scored twice, Ronaldinho and Kaka each scored. One goal, o:4 temporarily leading Russell.

After the start of the second half, Mourinho began to make frequent substitution adjustments, but Aguero, Michael Johnson, Vidic and Nymar scored 4 goals in a row for the Red Rebels, rewriting the score to 0:8.

Although Russell tried his best to resist, he was unable to withstand the almost overwhelming and powerful attack of the Red Rebels. He scored 8 goals in one game, which was really embarrassing for the host country, but the fans were disappointed with this game. Gave it a very high rating.

According to their concept, the Red Rebels showed their true skills in the competition to give the hosts a real test of their strength. Although the game failed miserably, it allowed them to see their own shortcomings and find themselves. defects and make progress.

In fact, any team should have this awareness before playing against the Red Rebels, because the Red Rebels are notoriously ruthless and almost never show mercy.

After this game, the Red Rebels' warm-up match opponents, Real Madrid and AC Milan, the other two teams in the Eastern Champions League, arrived in Dubai, but they were unable to enjoy the same treatment as the Red Rebels. , they can only be arranged to a hotel slightly lower than the Burj Al Arab Hotel.

After the second day of training, the Red Rebels went to a slum settlement near Dubai.

The city of Dubai is a bit special. It has a small local population and a large foreign population, and most of the foreigners are at the bottom of society.

For example, Indian and Pakistani workers came to Dubai with the dream of gold mining, but they could only live at the bottom of society. But without them, there would be no Dubai today.

Khomeini's newspaper served this group of people

With the help of Khomeini and his newspaper, the Red Rebels came to a hospital near the slums.

After the previous inspection and review by the club, the team will donate a large sum of money to this hospital to help the hospital improve its medical facilities and at the same time provide more medical protection to poor workers.

This time, all the stars of the Red Rebel team came to this hospital to visit the poor workers in the hospital, bringing the Red Rebel's condolences. At the same time, they also attended a reception held at the entrance of the hospital. The hospital officially announced, In order to commemorate the good deeds of the Red Rebels, they decided to rename the hospital Red Rebel Hospital.

“According to official data from the Red Rebel Army, there are 5 hospitals in the world that are allowed to be named Red Rebel Hospital, which are located in various underserved areas of the world, most of which are located in Africa and South America, and some throughout Asia. and the mainland, but there are so many Red Rebel hospitals that are not allowed by the Red Rebels."

"The reason why the Red Rebels chose to donate to the hospital instead of donating directly to the poor was more out of encouragement. The club's purpose is to help people, so they hope that everyone, even the lowest workers, can work hard. , instead of being inactive like many people in the slums, so the Red Rebels began to invest more and more donations in hospitals and schools."

The Red Rebels' donation ceremony caused quite a stir in Dubai, but it was only part of the team's Dubai itinerary.

Since Juninho retired, Real Madrid introduced Xabi Alonso from Liverpool for 5 million euros, then introduced Albiol from Valencia, took back Granero from Getafe, and acquired Almeli from Almeli. Asia took back Negredo and other stars.

As a result, Real Madrid has indeed made a lot of moves, but the team's strength has been greatly improved.

Ancelotti has just taken over Real Madrid, and everything still follows the arrangement of the previous head coach. Raul is at the forward, David Silva is behind him, Mata is on the left, Ribery is on the right, and Xavi? Alonso and M? Diarra serve as the double midfielders, and Real Madrid's offensive combination is also very sharp.

David Silva and Mata were both acquired and promoted by Xiao Yu after reminding Florentino. As a result, these two players have now grown into the core players of Real Madrid. On the bench, Real Madrid also Sitting there was a Navas.

Both teams are in training mode. Although the outside world is clamoring for Ancelotti to touch Mourinho again, in fact, the two sides have no such worries. Instead, they try their best to control the team's lineup and the situation during the game. Practice tactical routines.

Obviously, although the Red Rebels have no players coming in or out this season, the team's strength has improved. After all, the players are becoming more and more mature, and these players have been working with each other for many years and have a tacit understanding. Unlike Real Madrid, they still need To adjust, especially with the arrival of Xavi Alonso.

Having replaced the soul and core of the team, Real Madrid is still somewhat constrained by others in the team's offensive and defensive transitions.

The Red Rebels launched a massive offensive from the start. Although Real Madrid was very active during the game, they were passive and lost control of the game.

In the 10th minute, Aguero suddenly retreated, attracting Pepe to come forward and backward. He suddenly stopped and turned back. Kaka's pass went directly behind Pepe. After receiving the ball, Aguero flexibly moved away in the penalty area. Albiol, low shot beat Casillas' goal, :o

Casillas was a little disappointed with the goal. Although he warned his teammates early to be careful, the Red Rebels were too cunning.

Ancelotti obviously realized this and signaled the team to retreat slightly and keep the three lines compact.

The first half ended like this: o.

Mourinho made three substitutions during the break, replacing Ronaldinho with Theo Walcott, replacing Cesc Fabregas with Michael Johnson, and replacing Essien with Mikel.

After the substitutions, the Red Rebels were a little confused. Real Madrid took this opportunity and Ribery suddenly started cutting in from the right to hit the goal. Cech saved the sudden shot, but the chaos in the penalty area gave Raul With the opportunity, the Real Madrid captain added a shot to equalize the score:

However, after a period of chaos, Michael Johnson quickly stabilized the situation. In the 54th minute, after intercepting Xavi Alonso's ball on the court, he passed the ball to the right. Messi stopped the ball and went directly to the ball. Entering the penalty area, he succeeded in pushing the shot into the far corner to score again:

In the 7th minute, after another continuous dribble by Messi on the right, he knocked across the penalty area. Alves, who ran into the penalty area in the air, got the ball and directly passed the ball to the back post. Walcott touched the ball into the goal with his calf. ,:

After that, Mourinho made adjustments to the team's lineup again, especially bringing many players on as substitutes, allowing them to take advantage of this opportunity to compete against powerful teams like Real Madrid and become familiar with the atmosphere. and pressure.

After frequent substitutions, Ancelotti also made adjustments to Real Madrid's lineup. Although both sides created several opportunities, no one scored again.

"It's a pity that we lost the game, but this was a warm-up match. We met the Red Rebels. They are a mature team and we need to run in. At this point, I think our performance is worthy of recognition. of."

"Did Arbeloa make a mistake? Yes, his defense against Messi was indeed unsuccessful, but I think that was because the cooperation between him and his teammates was not tacit enough. The two goals conceded in the second half were all due to positioning issues. I I think as he gradually integrates into the team, this problem will be solved well."

Regarding his bitter rival Mourinho, Ancelotti said, "Mourinho's team is a mature and great team. They have achieved very high achievements and honors, and even now, they have We still maintain our desire and pursuit of honors, and being able to have a warm-up match with them will be of great help to us, and we can better find our shortcomings.”

“This is our biggest gain from coming to Dubai”

After the game against Real Madrid, the Red Rebels had no chance to rest. Instead, they welcomed AC Milan two days later. This was the Red Rebels' second and final game in the Eastern Champions League.

After defeating Real Madrid, Mourinho made certain rotations in the lineup against AC Milan. After all, he had to consider multi-line operations in the new season.

Two days later, with the goals of Alonso and Silva, Real Madrid: defeated AC Milan and won the second place in the Eastern Champions League; The Rossoneri's performance has declined a lot in the past two seasons. Especially with the aging of a group of veterans such as Gattuso, Pirlo, and Seedorf, the Rossoneri has been unable to keep up with the replacement, causing the team's combat effectiveness to decline sharply.

Galliani also got Berlusconi's approval. Taking advantage of this trip to Dubai, he hopes to have a good talk with the Red Rebels. They hope to get Ganso and Hamm who are on loan at Ajax from the Red Rebels. Sigg also hopes to get Genk's midfielder Defour, who believes that Defour can be a good replacement for Pirlo.

In addition to the temptations of these three players, Mamadou Sakho was also valued by Wenger, and Jovetic was tempted by Inter Milan. After the attempt to poach Manchester City's Sneijder failed, Inter Milan hoped Being able to get Jovetic, they believe that Jovetic will be the offensive link in Inter Milan's frontcourt.

The current lineup of the Red Rebels is neat. Even the so-called genius Ganso or the new Nedved's Hamsik can't find their place in the current Red Rebels team, and they are in Afghanistan. Teams like Jax and Genk have proven their potential and talent.

Now, they need to get wider sky, just like Pastore, Otamendi and others before them.

The scouting department of the Red Rebels understands the players' ideas and is currently negotiating with teams such as AC Milan, Arsenal and Inter Milan. There are many teams hoping to get these players, and the Red Rebels do not need to worry at all. buyer.
