Chapter 323 Go to Abu Dhabi

Remember in one second/manghuangji provides you with wonderful novels to read.

Although Werder Lame was third in the Bundesliga last season, they are indeed the weakest in this group. They have not won a ball yet. Even if they play at home, it will be very difficult to beat Lazio.

of.

Werder Bremen may not have thought about winning...

So this pizza is not the point.

The media didn't pay attention to this game either.

In terms of television broadcasts, the game that was broadcast around the world was not this one, but Tottenham Hotspur's on-field challenge to Twente.

In this game, Chang Sheng once again rotated the lineup and put on a lineup that was exactly the same as the one against Twente at home.

The team's playing style is exactly the same as that game.

However, slowing down the tempo this time is not to consume the opponent's energy, but purely to control the ball.

Under the control of Lazio's passing, Werder Bremen had no choice.

They initially followed Lazio's pass.

Later, when they found out that this was meaningless and could not help them win the ball, they chose to recycle their defense - no matter how Lazio passed or ran, they stuck to their penalty area.

Of course, this kind of game is not pretty to watch, and Lazio's slow pace makes it even more drowsy to watch.

Fans who tuned in to watch this game in the early hours of the morning were bound to be disappointed.

However, Chang Sheng never decides which tactics to use just to please the fans. His tactics will only serve victory and are only considered from a strategic perspective.

What Lazio needs now is to rest and adjust their condition, because in the next period of time, they will go to the Middle East to participate in two games, and traveling long distances will be a test for the team's physical fitness.

Naturally, it is impossible for them to use up all their energy in such an inconsequential game just to please the audience.

The match against Werder Bremen was uneventful.

In the end, Lazio defeated Werder Bremen 1:ou with a direct free kick.

In this way, they won six out of six games and ended up with 18 points.

In another stadium, the game was very fierce. Only 12 minutes into the game, Twente scored an own goal, causing Tottenham to lead 1-1.

But ten minutes later, Tottenham Hotspur fouled in the penalty area and was sentenced to death by the referee. Twente hit a penalty kick and tied the score at 1:1.

In the first half, the score was 1:1.

Just two minutes into the second half, Defoe gave Tottenham Hotspur the lead at this moment.

In the fifty-fifth minute, Twente equalized the score again.

Four minutes later, in the 59th minute, Defoe scored twice and Tottenham led three times, 32

Five points later, tenacious Twente equalized for the third time!

But when it comes to this, the game has basically lost its meaning.

Even if Twente can beat Tottenham Hotspur, it is impossible to beat Tottenham Hotspur by more than three goals. It will only be eliminated by three goals because Tottenham Hotspur's away goal

More than Winter!

Now, the total score is that Tottenham leads by 7 with three away goals, while Twente only has one away goal.

When both teams have the same win-loss relationship, it's time to compare away goals.

Tottenham beat Twente.

Therefore, Twente must score four goals in the next game. If the two sides have the same victory or defeat relationship, first compare the total scores when they played against each other, then Twente can defeat them with a total score of 8:7.

Tottenham Hotspur. Otherwise you have to compare away goals...

But now it is difficult for Twente to score four goals in a row in more than 20 minutes since birth. Such a possibility does not exist.

So in fact Tottenham Hotspur has won the right to qualify, while Twente will play

This reality also made Twente a little discouraged. Then their offensive pace slowed down and neither side was able to score.

The game ended with a score of 33. Tottenham Hotspur finished second in the group with eight points and got the right to qualify, while Twente went to the Europa League with five points. Werder Bremen were at the bottom with two points.

After playing against Werder Bremen, Lazio did not stay overnight in Bremen. They got on a plane directly to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, where they will prepare for the Club World Cup.

This is their last championship of the year.

They have won five championships before this, and they are still missing the last one, which is the Club World Cup.

Although Lazio is very strong, it is still hard to say in a competition like the Club World Cup.

Because the Club World Cup is completely an encounter.

The opponents you will encounter are completely unknown to you.

Moreover, tactics that work in Europe may not necessarily work when facing South American teams.

European teams place more emphasis on tactics, while South American teams place more emphasis on the performance of individual players.

If you encounter a player who is crazy, your great advantage may be ruined.

Perhaps the most famous is the 2006 Club World Cup.

When Barcelona, ​​led by Frank Rijkaard, went to Tokyo, Japan, the whole world was optimistic that they could win the Club World Cup.

Everyone in their team thinks so too. Everyone thinks that going to Japan is just to fulfill the awarding formalities, but they fully consider the difficulty of the competition.

As a result, the powerful Dream Team 2 lost to Internazionale Brazil 0:1 in Tokyo and lost the Data Cup championship.

The more certain you are that you can win, the more likely you are to lose the game.

Therefore, it cannot be said that Lazio will definitely win the championship this time.

The team still takes it very seriously.

Especially when it comes to wins, on the plane from Bremen to Abu Dhabi, he constantly reminded his players not to lose the game because of pride and underestimate the enemy.

In fact, it is very clear that this year's Club World Cup will not be a duel between South American teams and European teams.

The team that finally reached the final was not the champion of South America's Copa Libertadores, but the Bulldozers of teams from the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

There is a huge strength gap between the two sides, so if the Bulldozer team can threaten Lazio, the chance is very low.

As long as Lazio performs normally, this championship will be theirs.

But he couldn't say it, which would make people wonder why he predicted it.

He also can't show any optimism, so the players will think they can relax and underestimate the opponent for granted.

※※※

Lazio received a very warm welcome in Abu Dhabi, with 300 fans greeting them at the airport.

And these more than 300 fans are not Lazio fans from Italy, but local Lazio fans in Abu Dhabi!

Lotito, who came with the team, almost burst out laughing when he saw so many UAE fans wearing traditional Arab costumes and waving Lazio flags and scarves.

This fully illustrates how influential Lazio Club is around the world...

In the past, it was not easy to see Lazio fans in the Middle East, let alone so many Lazio fans gathered together...

This means that as Lazio's results get better and better, the influence of Lazio Club is also growing.

Lotito is even dreaming of imitating Real Madrid and seeking partners in the Middle East to build a Lazio theme park, a Lazio theme hotel... and earn the petrodollars of those Middle Eastern billionaires in this extremely rich place.

However, Lotito also remained sober, and he also knew that the reason why Lazio is where it is today is inseparable from their ability to continue to win championships on all fronts and in all competitions.

And where do champions come from?

Nature is brought about by constant victory.

Therefore, if Lazio wants to continue to make money and continue to expand its influence, he must continue to be better at winning, and continue to follow the lead of winning.

Although some Italian media ridiculed Lotito for being the club president with the least presence in Serie A, Lotito did not take it seriously. He was even complacent about it: "A good club president only needs to pay the head coach.

, other times he doesn’t need to come out to find a sense of presence.”

This is a bit pretentious.

But everyone had to admit that he was right.

Because the team's results are there.

Lotito is not like being the president of Italy's most popular club, he just needs to keep his head down and make money.

As long as the results are good and the club makes money, he is happier than anything else.

A person who is greedy for money is just that simple...

Therefore, he has no psychological pressure to do things like clinging to Chang Sheng's thigh.

Even though Chang Sheng is now ahead of him and is much more popular than him, the media only interview Chang Sheng and the fans are chanting Chang Sheng's name. He doesn't feel unhappy at all, but has a smile on his face.

.

In fact, the happier he is with the winning coaching results. In addition to money, it also at least illustrates his vision.

In the beginning, Chang Sheng was acquired through his own perseverance.

Lotito had been pursuing Chang Sheng since he was in Valencia. As a result, Lazio was just a poor boy with pure silk at that time, so Chang Sheng didn't like him.

But Lotito was not discouraged. When Chang Sheng was still in Rome, the media spread various negative news about him. Lotito did not give up his idea. Instead, he continued to contact Chang Sheng, hoping that Chang Sheng would consider coming to Lazio.

The main thing that he values ​​​​about winning is that it does not cost too much money. He always uses very little money to do big things. He does not invest much in the transfer market, but the team's results are very good.

This is one of them.

Second, he values ​​the ability to win and make money. Players he buys at low prices can eventually be sold at high prices.

This is simply too important for the Lazio club, which has no money and needs to pay off debts.

Therefore, Chang Sheng is like a head coach tailor-made for Lazio. He was born to coach Lazio.

Lazio's current results fully prove his vision.

In the history that follows, when praising Chang Sheng, it is indispensable to mention himself, saying that he has a keen eye for recognizing talents. After all, horses with thousands of miles of horses often exist, but Bole does not always exist, and he is the Bole who does not always exist.

Choosing to win is one of the most proud choices in my life.
