Chapter 437: The Autumn Wind Sweeps the Leaves (Part 2)
Then, according to the logic of fairy tales, Jose should have become famous all over the world in one fell swoop, reaching the pinnacle of his life and never coming down again... Then he is not a madman. This guy only led Benfica nine times without any dazzling qualifications.
He had a falling out with the board of directors after just one game.
After ten years, he became the head coach for nine games and then resolutely went into self-exile. From the perspective of the Chinese, you still have to endure it? Then slowly build up strength? Haha, so there is no magic bird in China!
This season is the third team led by Jose, and it is also a traditional giant in Portugal. It is also a headache for them to meet Tubingen Youth in the UEFA Cup semi-finals. Real Betis, Lazio, and Liverpool all have no way to deal with this team.
, even lost cleanly, and what can be done if Porto changes to it?
Others didn't know what he would do, but Wang Ai knew! Before coming to Portugal, he made it clear to Mr. Jimbos: the opponent in this game is a shameless, unlimited, and extreme utilitarian!
Under the suspicious gaze of Mr. Jinbos, Wang Ai lied and claimed that he had sent someone to investigate this guy because this dark, thin, stubborn guy had been wandering on the fringes of the mainstream football circle for a long time and could not make a living.
Success has a kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder. He doesn't care about tactics, he doesn't care about whether he looks good, he doesn't care about what others say about him, he just wants one: victory!
Only victory, continuous victory, will prevent him from being squeezed on the bench and unable to move. Jose, who has had endless ups and downs in his playing and coaching careers, has a sense of compulsion to show off, so he will resort to the most utilitarian tactics at all costs.
Law!
Mr. Jinbosi knew that Wang Ai would not easily say anything about his tactical arrangements. On the contrary, he admired him very much. But now that Wang Ai seriously talked about Porto's young head coach, it must be worthy of attention. At this time
Except for Wang Ai, no one could have imagined that this silent, cold and arrogant little Portuguese man would become the most successful football coach on the planet in the future.
Wang Ai's football thoughts are also different from those of traditional football people. Their thinking is still based on competitive sports rather than commercial sports. Although the two have many similarities, such as chasing victory in the game to realize value,
But there are also big differences. For example, competitive sports will try to avoid contact with the media, keep players and clubs quiet, and prepare carefully for war. Commercial sports, on the other hand, will try to tap the personal value of stars, from on-field to off-field, from football to life.
Everything is included.
Commercial football is the mainstream football element on the planet today. It’s just that few people clearly realize this. Why is the Premier League the most successful league? Because the British tabloids are too rampant, forcing the British football industry to
The road to commercial football.
For a tabloid like "The Sun" that even dares to engage in eavesdropping, you can only comply with it if you can't resist it. That's why Premier League clubs are the most valuable. It's like the relationship between celebrities and paparazzi. They complement each other and promote each other. Contemporary
The same is true for football and tabloids. This actually fully explains the rules of today's football.
Wang Ai doesn't know whether Mourinho has thought of this, but there is no doubt that his character, characteristics, and tactical command are the most suitable for commercial football. And Wang Ai's appreciation for him goes beyond that. He dares to speak and do what he does.
People have always had strong charisma.
Mourinho is like this, and so is Wang Ai.
This can be regarded as sympathy or mutual sympathy. Although the two of them do not know each other now, they both know each other's name and deeds. Relatively speaking, Wang Ai is more famous now.
Therefore, Wang Ai plans to give this future madman a blow! Before he goes to Chelsea or Inter Milan, it will not be easy to find him in the future! Not only does he have good results in leading the team, but the key is that he always changes places.
Intense preparations for the game began quietly in Tübingen Youth, and the seriousness of the preparations was no less serious than against Liverpool. Although the players did not know Wang Ai's bad taste of "teasing" madmen, they could understand it. From the UEFA Cup to the semi-finals
, the prize money given by UEFA for a game alone is 800,000 euros. If you win, it will be doubled. If you win, the prize money in the final will be doubled again. If you lose, you will also get 300 euros. And if you win,
That’s 5.5 million euros!
This is a bit like a poker machine. Every time you win a round, your bet is doubled. But the advantage over the poker machine is that it does not require you to invest money. As long as you win, your money will double.
After picking up the winning bonus from the League Cup, funds for the renovation of the Lions Stadium will come out this year. This is really a big gun... Once the whistle blows, there is a thousand taels of gold!
On April 10th in Porto, Portugal, the warm Atlantic sea breeze made people feel more refreshing. Under the arrangement of UEFA, the two sides entered Porto's home stadium - Antas Stadium.
The new home stadium, the Dragon Stadium, has not yet been built. The old stadium, which is getting older, needs to be demolished before it can be built. And the premise is that Porto can perform well this season and give the board of directors the confidence to invest in football to build the stadium.
At 18:00 in the evening, under the witness of many German media, European media, and Chinese media, these two young teams with the same multi-faceted and ambitious teams collided.
As soon as the game started, Porto fell into a passive position.
This is not because they resolutely play defensive counterattacks and do not want to control the ball. They are passive on the surface, but they are really passive. The Tübingen youth used an extremely concise and clean offensive organization to disintegrate the opponent's tacit defense line, and did not intend to give the opponent too much.
Adjustment opportunities, led and driven by Wang Ai, resulted in a large number of kicks, a large number of long-distance maneuvers, and a large number of precise direct passes, making Porto's backcourt full of dangers.
While Porto also used a concise and direct way to counterattack, Tübingen began to counterattack on the spot, blocking and harassing at all levels, especially the man-marking center back Zhang Yonghai and the midfield sweeper Boateng.
The revolt that destroyed Porto.
Jose, who couldn't sit still, stood on the sidelines and observed the changes on the court with a serious expression, and frequently gave instructions to the players. Compared with him, Mr. Jimbos, who was also standing on the sidelines, acted much calmer.
The arrangements have been made long ago, and with a calm mind like Wang Ai on the court, it is enough to ensure that his correct tactical instructions will be carried out to the end.
Of course, if what he said was wrong, this guy wouldn't listen to him, especially in such an important game.
In the first half, the two sides tied at 2:1, with the away team taking the lead.
In the second half, the two sides continued their efforts and played another 2:1, with the away team still leading.
Facing the still immature Jose and his anti-counterattack tactics, Wang Ai returned to the house with Golden Finger and the sophisticated and cunning Mr. Jinbos to use pressing style to suppress the opponent in the half court, using a sharper and more accurate offensive than the opponent.
Defuse the opponent's intensive defense.
After being tempered by Lazio's chain defense, the Tubingen native is now very good at breaking through dense defenses.
In the first game of the UEFA Cup semi-finals, Tübingen Youth defeated Porto 4:2.
