After spn defeated Sunderland 3-2, Chelsea coach Hiddink officially bid farewell to the Premier League this season. He still has an FA Cup final to direct, and the atmosphere of the Premier League farewell game left a particularly deep impression on him.
Anelka scored a goal and surpassed Ronaldo to win the silver boot for second place in the Premier League scorer list. Hiddink said: "I am very happy to see this. Although he is not first, at least he killed one of his final opponents.
Players, we talked about this at halftime, first of all we are here to win, and secondly if we can help Anelka kill one by one, then it will be a good thing for everyone. We talked about this.”
"If you want something too much, you usually won't get it, so we said we have to play a little bit special and move the ball more. Drogba's ball movement created space for Anelka, that
He had to take the opportunity and I thought he scored a world-class goal."
Hiddink also talked about the good impression the Premier League has left on him. "When the final whistle blows, hearing the fans applaud a losing team is a very special feeling, but I can understand it. This is something special about the Premier League.
place."
"A very good atmosphere, Sunderland is a good club, the fans are fully supportive and there was applause even if they didn't win. It shows that people are very supportive of football and it's good for me to have this experience."[
"I think our attitude was serious, as it should be, it was an honest game because we knew they wanted a point but you could also get a result in Sunderland's favor elsewhere."
"We played a good game. We were a little lax at some stages and were tied 1-1 by them. But overall, we controlled the game very well."
"Of course, I will miss the Premier League, I know it from the inside, it is a very attractive league and I enjoy almost every minute of working here."
Chelsea will play Manchester United in the FA Cup final, which will also be head coach Hiddink's last game in charge of the Blues. The Dutchman said that he has been recognized by Chelsea club owner Abramovich.
You can leave Stamford Bridge proudly.
In addition, Hiddink also made suggestions for Chelsea, believing that the team should strengthen the thickness of the lineup.
Regardless of the outcome of the FA Cup final, Hiddink's performance at Chelsea has been widely recognized.
He said: "The club has not talked to me about staying, because we all know what the specific situation is. They know that I am very dedicated to the work of the Russian national team. Abramovich also talked a lot about it.
Russia’s responsibility.”
In the two-leg match against Barcelona, Chelsea successfully limited their opponents' performance and led until the end of the second leg at Stamford Bridge. In that game, the refereeing controversy was widely regarded as the reason why the Blues failed to advance.
One of the factors was that Hiddink was also very angry after that game.
Hiddink said: "I was in a bad mood after the Barcelona game, but I spoke to Abramovich a day later at Cobham Base and I was still angry (about the refereeing controversy)."
"But Abramovich told me to be proud because I left a good impression around the world with our performance against Barcelona, especially the second game."
"Abramovich also said that I should not be negative and should be proud of the team and my own performance."
Talking about the FA Cup final, Hiddink said: "It would be perfect if we can get the trophy. We are very happy to reach the final."
The Dutchman also suggested that Chelsea strengthen the thickness of the lineup. "It's not for me to talk about this, but the people at the club know that they have to strengthen the thickness of the lineup. Although we have a good lineup and a good team, but
Everyone knows that Chelsea have to fight on three fronts."
"You need a lineup, not just 14, 15 or 16 players who can play the game, you need players with quality in every position. But this is not something I can decide, of course it is up to the senior management and the new coach.
decision making."
Who will be Hiddink's successor? Many people are pointing to current Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti. Ancelotti's future in Milan is currently very unstable. Although he announced not long ago that he will stay at San Siro, he has not received the approval from his boss Pele.
Judging from Luconi's attitude, Ancelotti is likely to leave the team in the summer, and his destination will be Chelsea.
Recently, Ancelotti himself revealed for the first time his conversations with Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich, which further sparked rumors that he will leave Milan for Stamford Bridge.
Ancelotti revealed that he gave Abramovich a detailed introduction to his playing style and style if he coached Chelsea, and he publicly mentioned the names of two players he wanted to buy.
This conversation took place last summer, and Abramovich's invitation to Ancelotti this year seems to be a continuation of that conversation. Ancelotti said: "Abramovich came to me and we sat down together.
The conversation started.”
"We talked about football and only football. Abramovich wanted to know everything about me, my way of working, my football philosophy. An hour passed and we never talked about money."[
Later, after the second meeting with Abramovich, Ancelotti said: "The final agreement with Chelsea must be based on Milan's agreement. The second meeting with Abramovich was only about football, and what if I
As Chelsea manager, how will I coach the team."
Ancelotti said that his suggestion to Chelsea was to acquire technical players, and he proposed the names of Bayern star Ribery and Liverpool star Alonso. "I said to Abramovich, your team is very strong.
, but you have to add more skills on the court, and I gave him two names, Ribery and Alonso."
Recently, British media claimed that Chelsea had made an offer of up to 40 million pounds for Bayern Munich's Ribery. This was in line with Ancelotti's proposal for the Blues to buy the Frenchman. However, Bayern Munich responded by saying that they
No such offer was received. Bayern's media officer Marcus Hovik said: "This rumor is completely untrue. Ribery is still our not-for-sale." But if Ancelotti really takes over at Chelsea
If Abramovich, the head coach, is willing to build a luxurious lineup for him, then the Blues may make a high bid for Ribery sooner or later.
Ancelotti also said: "My conversation with Abramovich was very relaxed. He did not make me feel uncomfortable, even if he whispered, 'We just lost the Champions League final, the league, I am not satisfied.'
At that time, he was very concerned about the result of the game and the well-played game. We talked for another 40 minutes, and then he said, 'Thank you Ancelotti, we will meet again.'"
Current Chelsea coach Hiddink has some inside knowledge. He recently publicly advised Ancelotti that if he wants to succeed at Chelsea, it is important to learn to speak English.
Hiddink said: "I couldn't speak Korean when I was coaching the Korean team. Although I learned a little, the first words that came out were always swear words. Koreans are very polite, but the players will always teach you some swear words. They
Said, when you talk to the chairman, use this word, use that word, but what they taught me were some swear words, so the chairman suddenly couldn't react and said why this person talks like this. I like these jokes of the players very much.
,However, when teaching in a new environment, it is important to learn the language there well."
"First of all, the club will announce who will be the new coach, but as far as rumors go, I know Ancelotti. I have met him a few times, the last time was Stam's farewell game with the Dutch national team.
He coached the 1998 Netherlands team with me against Stam's team. We coached one game together and had a great evening. Ancelotti is a great guy, very direct and
It's very public. Looking at his resume in Italy, both as a player and as a coach, he is full of honors and experience."
After the FA Cup is over, Chelsea's job of selecting a coach can begin. At present, Ancelotti is indeed the best candidate. With Abramovich's personality, Ancelotti is probably his favorite type of coach.
The coach is capable but very obedient. When it comes to player transfers, Ancelotti uses whoever the club gives him in Milan. When he comes to Chelsea, he doesn't have to adapt at all.
Before the FA Cup final, the head coaches on both sides did not talk too much. They all said that the FA Cup will be a great game and the opponents are very strong!
It was surprisingly consistent, but Ferguson and Hiddink did not fool the media anymore. It was almost the two most expensive teams in the Premier League playing together in the final. The combined starting players of the two teams were worth 9.6 euros, which was definitely a record.
Finals of the century.
At that time, Manchester United will send out Rooney, Li Yu, and Ronaldo to form the most terrifying attacking combination in the Premier League and even Europe. The British media calls the combination of the three of them the Manchester United Trident!
On the other hand, the striker combination that Chelsea will send, Anelka, Drogba, and Malouda, are all composed of black players. Of course, the British media will not let them go, but compared with the Trident, Chelsea
The name of the striker feels a bit strange, isn't it?
I'm sorry to say it clearly, Black Pearl Combination!
It's so weak. The fans who support Manchester United are even more interesting. Many people are saying that they can't finish it with chimpanzees. The Red Devils' trident has completely beaten the gorilla!
The outside media reported very lively before the game. The players and coaches of the two clubs were surprisingly quiet. The players simply chose to remain silent. The strikers of the two teams who were named and compared did not even speak. In fact, Drogba always kept his mouth shut.
Yes, but with the lessons learned from the Champions League, I didn’t make any big statements this time, which undoubtedly caused the media to lose a lot of interest.
In the 2008\09 season (the 128th) FA Cup final at Wembley Stadium, Manchester United wore traditional red jerseys, while Chelsea uncharacteristically wore yellow uniforms!
All Manchester United players have been trying not to talk about Chelsea's distinctive jersey in the tunnel.
Chelsea has been the veritable king of the FA Cup in recent years. No matter what happens, they always take an FA Cup to heal the pain caused by the Premier League season. If Chelsea wins the final trophy, it will be the first in the history of the Chelsea club.
fifth FA Cup.
Lord Treisman, chairman of the Football Association, accompanied former United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan to meet with coaches and players from both sides before the game.
13-year-old Barry Smith sang the British national anthem before the game.
When the game officially started, before everyone got into the mood, the goal was already displayed in front of everyone.
After Manchester United kicked off, Li Yu passed the ball to Rooney. Rooney handed the ball to the midfielder Carrick behind him as usual. Everything seemed normal. Chelsea players immediately rushed over the midfield line to start pressing. Manchester United's midfield line
He started to tip the ball over twice, and the ball had already reached the feet of Manchester United center back Ferdinand. Chelsea, who was wearing a yellow jersey, aggressively pressed the ball, leaving Manchester United with no way to get the ball out! [
Just when it seemed that Manchester United had no chance, Ferdinand was forced to pass the ball with his big foot, but a miracle happened.
Drogba also looked up at the ball that jumped over the headache.
This kind of high ball is not difficult for Chelsea's central defender combination. Drogba, known as the African Andy Lau, has already begun to use his feet to get ready to run into a good position in Chelsea's next attack.
But it turns out that it's not as simple as it seems.
Chelsea's Brazilian central defender Alex didn't even take off to head the ball to clear the ball during the competition with Li Yu. What happened? They were obviously facing the ball, but neither of them made any move.
Li Yu and Alex seemed to have been fighting for position with their bodies. Alex, who was tall and powerful, was surprised to find that he was completely at a disadvantage. In desperation, he grabbed Manchester United's No. 9 jersey. If Alex
If he jumped again, the referee would have his work to do. In order not to give the referee this opportunity, the Brazilian did not even jump.
Terry gave a safe gesture and ran forward to handle the ball. Now it seemed that Manchester United had no chance at all.
But at this moment, Li Yu suddenly broke out. He turned around and heard a tearing sound from behind. At this time, Li Yu couldn't care less, so he accelerated, accelerated!
Seeing only the ball still rolling in the air, Terry was frightened by the sudden change and immediately accelerated.
The two of them definitely have a 50-50 chance to control the ball. On the one hand, they are fast and on the other hand, they are well positioned.
At the same time, I stretched out my feet to get the right feet!
Terry, who was known as a tough guy, felt guilty at this moment, because it was obvious that Li Yu was fast. If Manchester United's No. 9 had some bad intentions and kicked a ball instead of a ball, who would be unlucky?
It's definitely him.
Thinking of this, who would think about kicking the ball anyway? It’s just one kick anyway, so just ask someone to kick it. However, the experienced Terry’s movements made his toes seem to be heading towards the ball. The ball was about to touch the ball.
It will pass by dangerously, and the ferocious spikes on the soles will reveal their true colors at this time.
When encountering each other on a narrow road, the brave will win. Li Yu knew this truth very well. At this time, he had no intention of giving up this opportunity. He still had absolute confidence in his body. Come on!
With a roar in his heart, he raised his foot to kick the ball without hesitation.
"That's not right..." Li Yu felt the danger signal the moment he stepped out. He couldn't explain the feeling. Li Yu had an extraordinary body, and his sense of danger before it came was also sharper than that of ordinary people, but he was running quickly.
One foot has already been stretched out, and it's too late to do anything else!
Taking advantage of the situation, Li Yu made a sliding shovel motion, and in an instant, Li Yu slid under Terry's legs against the grass.
Terry was dumbfounded. Who could tell him what was going on? There was a big question mark clearly written on Terry's face!
"This Chinese boy has seen his intentions? Impossible, right? But how to explain all this?"
Terry's mind was full of questions. Anyway, he didn't understand what was happening before him. If Li Yu had understood his intentions in advance, Manchester United's No. 9 would be a god.
Huaxia fans would not miss such a wonderful scene and expressed their opinions one after another!
"The heifer is practicing handstand, and the cow is so horny!"
"You are so talented upstairs!"
In fact, Li Yu was also cursing secretly in his heart, and his anger was rising. The ball came over, which meant that Terry completely wanted to kick someone, and in order to avoid the opponent's kicking action, he was equivalent to digging into his crotch.
No one thought about that, but Li Yu thought about this. If he didn't score this goal, he would be sorry for the huge sacrifice he just made.
It was Cech's turn to be dumbfounded. The two central defenders combined to form two idiots. One was unable to jump due to lack of leg strength, and the other was unable to kick the ball due to presbyopia. "Tm, it's like hell!"
Although the Czech national team was helpless, they had no choice but to attack. Staying in the door would be courting death. If they came out to block it, there might be a miracle.
After Li Yu made a sliding tackle, he stood up and dribbled away with the ball. He looked up at the goalkeeper's position and struck!
I like this crisp, "Boom!" sound, and the ball made a huge noise just after it was carried a few meters.
Cech immediately got up and made the save. It can be said that he was completely out of instinctive reaction cultivated by long-term goalkeeping training. After making a judgment, it was too late to save anything, but even so, the ball still did not touch.
However, Cech still has considerable confidence in his skills, and the positions that cannot be blocked basically mean that he cannot enter.
However, the ball showed obvious internal spin in the air and hit the net in the upper corner of the goal.
When Cech landed and turned to look at the goal, he realized that the ball was already in the net. Manchester United's No. 9 was much better than the last time they played against each other. He was growing up too fast. He was a monster!
Manchester United took the lead only 25 seconds after kick-off, Manchester United 1:0 Chelsea. At the same time, this goal also created a new record, the fastest goal in the history of the FA Cup final!
