Chapter 246 The final begins

It's so frustrating.

Dick's last words are the finishing touch - stealing the limelight from the World Cup is something that few teams can do. After all, for most people, the World Cup may now start to become a mixed bag.

, the average level may not be as good as the European Cup and Champions League, but the brand of the World Cup is there after all. When the World Cup starts, the uncles and aunts in China who do not watch football or sports news may also know that there is a football World Cup in the world.

, but don’t know what other European Cups and Champions Leagues...

Now Dick wants to steal the limelight from the Champions League. Whether he can do it or not is another question, but having such an idea is enough to motivate the players!

Atletico Madrid players, with high morale, are waiting for the day of the Champions League final.

For the entire European football world, the Champions League final is definitely a grand event. Even the head coaches of previously eliminated teams often come to watch this game, and this Champions League is no exception.

After the players from both sides finished their warm-up on the field and returned to their locker rooms, the television cameras began to look for people in the stands, and they did find many familiar faces - Manchester United's head coach Ferguson and

Roma's head coach Capello was sitting side by side in the stands, while Wenger was sitting on the other side of the stands. The top executives of both clubs were naturally indispensable. In a luxury box in the stands, Old Hill and Xiao Xi

The father and son were sitting together, and sitting next to them were the remaining shareholders of the two clubs, Cerezo and Abasolo.

Of course there are other head coaches - Mourinho is sitting in a corner of the stands wearing a windbreaker, but he has just successfully put out a fire in Porto. He has only coached in Porto for half a season, and he is still in the European continent.

Without any fame at all, the cameras naturally ignored him.

Players from both sides were already waiting in the tunnel, and then Dick walked out of the tunnel in a swagger. When his figure appeared outside the tunnel, huge cheers from Atletico Madrid fans came from the stands.

Dick smiled and raised his hand and waved to the stands. Now of course was not the time for him to put out fires. At that time, he waved to the stands and received boos. But this time, he received extremely enthusiastic cheers.

!

Some people are born to attract everyone's attention and get everyone's love easily! In just two years, Dick has become a god in the eyes of Atletico Madrid fans because he can bring joy to Atletico Madrid fans.

Come and get whatever championship they need!

When he was putting out the fire, he brought the King's Cup championship. In the second season, he brought the UEFA Cup and the league championship. Now, the league championship has been obtained, and he is making great strides towards the Champions League championship!

If you understand Dick's resume, you will naturally know why Dick has received the support of so many Atletico Madrid fans!

Mourinho's eyes were fixed on Dick - in the past two years, there have been too many changes. When he saw Dick, he was a dirty guy with a flattering smile.

, I hope Cruyff can take a look at his future plans for Barcelona. At that time, Mourinho was already an assistant coach of Barcelona and could often argue with Cruyff over football concepts.

If Mourinho was already infinitely close to the circle of professional coaches at that time, then the gap between Dick and the circle of professional coaches could even be measured in light years!

Mourinho is by no means a prostitute. In fact, he can be regarded as coming from a football family. His father was once a member of the Portuguese national team. With such a starting point, it is actually not too easy to become a professional head coach.

Difficulties, but he is also smart, studious, capable, and able to endure. He has been dormant for ten years and has worked in Luobu successively.

He studied under famous coaches such as Sen, Van Gaal and Cruyff, and then became a gilded assistant coach at Barcelona. After returning to Portugal, he coached Benfica and Leiria successively, and now he finally has his own team in a giant like Porto.

In terms of status, Mourinho has done a good enough job and has laid a solid foundation.

But what about Dick? Compared with Dick's speed, Mourinho's process of enriching himself and coaching the team seems as slow as a snail. He is so lucky that he can get everything when he has nothing.

Thanks to the appreciation of the old Hill, he directly coached the second team of Atletico Madrid in the Spanish Second Division.

To be able to encounter an Atletico Madrid first team that has been so rotten that they can't find any suitable head coach before the end of the season, and then successfully turn the tide and save the fire, gain Hill's trust, and then become legendary in the next two seasons.

Rise up, now, he is standing on the field of Champions League final!

Dick's achievements in the past two years are simply a legend, an unprecedented legend in international football - no head coach has ever been able to complete such earth-shaking changes and create such earth-shaking achievements in just over two years.

Only this Dick can do this.

Sometimes when he sees some news about Dick, Mourinho can't help but think that he is weak. However, with his character that gets stronger when he encounters setbacks, this will not discourage him - as a protagonist

The coach will never completely fail. He can still have a lot of time to catch up with his opponents! At least now he has gained the trust of everyone in Porto. This is the time for him to show off his talents. He will never be like this again.

Like Benfica, who achieved good results but resigned angrily because the team management didn't like him.

"One day, I will stand on a stage like this!" Mourinho thought, clenching his fists.

When Mourinho swore in his heart, Dick had already returned to his seat and sat down, waiting for the game to start. Top Muller also sat down in his seat. At the same time, in the stands,

The cheers that broke out became louder again, because the players from both sides had already appeared on the field!

Atletico Madrid and Leverkusen both fielded a 4-5-1 formation. Obviously Dick and Topmueller both valued the midfield - and the configuration of the defense was similar, with two powerful full-backs.

, a tall central defender and a flexible central defender, but there is a difference in the forward line

Atletico Madrid's center is the tall Jardel, while Leverkusen's center is the agile Neuville. Of course, the quality of the substitute forwards on both sides is not bad. Atletico Madrid has Cruz and Torres, and Leverkusen's center is the agile Neuville.

Kusen has young Berbatov and veteran Kirsten.

Before the game started, players from both sides observed a moment of silence on the sidelines - this was to commemorate the legendary Ukrainian coach Lobanovskyi who had just passed away a day ago. At this time, Dick showed his respect for his predecessors. During the moment of silence, he stipulated

Standing on the sidelines politely, with his hands folded on his lower abdomen, waiting for the silence to end.

After the silence ended, Dick sighed, returned to his seat, and then turned to Marriner and said: "Life is so unpredictable... To be honest, I admire those coaches in the past.

Thanks to their efforts, football has been able to develop to this point...Okay, now let's pay attention to the game!"

"Well, Dick's words are very appropriate. To be honest, we should also pay attention to those old coaches and players. They made great contributions to the development of football, but at that time they were not able to make money.

Too much money, think about Garrincha who died of poverty. When our current players enjoy cheers and high salaries, don’t forget that it is all based on the efforts of those people...

…Let’s follow Dick’s words, let’s focus on the game now…”

After hearing the lip reading expert's translation, the ESPN commentator couldn't help but sigh. Because of this sentence, Dick's image suddenly became better than before. Many people began to think that although this guy Dick has

Sometimes he likes to be unreasonable, but most of the time, he is still a very good person...

It is Collina who is officiating this game. Obviously, as an Italian, he will have no worries about officiating this game, and his penalties will be very convincing, so that no players will feel dissatisfied.

After all, these two teams rarely enter the Champions League finals. If there are any mistakes in judgment, it will be easy to think of unfairness or something like that. The World Cup is about to start, and UEFA doesn’t want to

What trouble occurs.

After Collina looked at the time, he signaled the players on both sides to get ready, and then blew the whistle to start the game!

Jardel kicked the ball to Belleron and ran forward - the game had begun!

Belleron passed the ball back, then retreated and got the ball from Baraja again. He still remembered Dick's previous instructions - after the opening, control the ball first, and then wait for an opportunity to attack.

"When it comes to experience, our experience in playing Champions League finals with Leverkusen is half a catty, that is, it is equal to zero. But our skills are better, so don't worry, they have lost two championships, and they will definitely want to win here.

Fighting hard in every game, maybe they will want to catch us off guard with a press right away from the beginning, so don’t be anxious!”

With Dick's words echoing in his mind, Belleron looked up at the Leverkusen players rushing towards Atletico Madrid's half like a tide, turned around calmly, and then passed to Makelele behind him.

.

Then he made a gesture, telling everyone not to be anxious, to pass the ball slowly and not to make mistakes.

In Atletico Madrid's skillful passing back and forth, the pressing of Leverkusen players did not have a very good effect. Atletico Madrid still controlled the ball, and then distributed the ball to the wing, with Vicente on the left

Launched an attack!

Sebeczen came up to him, and then carefully retreated while blocking Vicente's path. He knew that Vicente was very fast, but he couldn't let him rush forward.

Seeing that the opponent was defending so carefully, Vicente chose to pass the ball back to Belleron, who immediately passed the ball to Kapp who was on the left side before Ballack came over.

De Villa and Capdevila were about to dribble the ball forward, but were knocked to the ground directly by Schneider who was returning to defense.

Collina's whistle sounded and Atletico Madrid won a free kick from the touchline.

Dick frowned slightly. Leverkusen launched a crazy press from the beginning of the game, and this action seemed to prove that they would use a lot of fouls in the game - this was to lure Atletico Madrid.

Is it also a foul?

"In this case, we can also use free kicks to score goals... They are pressing very high..." Dick thought silently in his heart.
