842 Darkness Invasion

Thanks to "Thieves" and "Qingqing Little Wolf" for the reward!

--------------------------

The England team is preparing calmly and seriously for the 1/8 finals...

On the eve of his departure for Oita, Aldrich attended the pre-match press conference as usual.

At the beginning, there were still reporters on the scene asking about Rooney's scandal. Aldridge showed no expression and ignored those reporters.

Issues surrounding Rooney were brought to the table one after another, and Aldridge didn't even raise his eyelids, as if it was turning a deaf ear.

The reporters who asked questions felt aggrieved. Naturally, they felt a little hurt at being ignored.

"Huh, what are you trying to do?"

A reporter from Africa couldn't keep his temper and complained in a loud voice.

Aldrich remained expressionless, as if he hadn't heard.

Many reporters in Europe chuckled in unison.

Playing a big role?

The young marshal just played it off, how about it?

If you are unhappy, you can disappear or not be interviewed.

Besides, is it really a big deal?

The theme of this press conference is about tomorrow's game, not Rooney's scandal. If you like to ask questions that you don't want to close, don't blame the young coach for treating you like nothing.

European journalists are very knowledgeable. When the England team made the penalty decision public, the Rooney incident was settled. There is no point in hyping it up anymore. Moreover, Rooney is not really that important in England. Today’s interview

, it was either broadcast on the evening news program, or published in the newspaper tomorrow. For those who pay attention to the fierce battle between England and Senegal, who would be interested in watching Rooney's news?

Isn't it just a prostitute?

How big a deal is it?

If it were during the off-season for football news, there would be a lot of hype. But now, it's the World Cup, who is Rooney? England has already cleaned up its affairs, so what else can be hyped?

Those who kept questioning Aldridge were either inexperienced reporters or some African reporters, trying to disrupt England and give Senegal a boost off the field.

But the young commander doesn't abandon these people at all.

There was silence for a while, and then Aldrich finally spoke.

"Since there is no problem, can I leave?"

As soon as Aldrich finished speaking, Fleet Street reporters raised their hands.

The press officer indicated that the other party could ask questions.

"How do you evaluate Senegal's performance in the group stage?"

"I think Senegal has surprised the world enough. They are the pride of African football. Before this, many people in the world may not have heard of Senegal's name, but through the World Cup, their outstanding performance has won the respect of the world.

And recognition. They defeated France, drew with Denmark. In the last game, they played an earth-shattering 3:3 against Uruguay. An amazing team. England is very happy to play against Senegal."

"You mean, Senegal has attracted England's attention and vigilance, right?"

"Of course not! We take every opponent very seriously and will not underestimate any opponent. If we are vigilant because it is the first time that the opponent has reached the top 16, then the England team cannot go further and can only respect it.

Only by paying attention to every opponent and giving your best in every game can we go further."

"Senegal coach Mechu said before that England is very strong, especially with a coach as experienced and capable as you. He doesn't dare to say that he will definitely be able to defeat you, but he will try hard. What do you think of this?"

Bruno Mechu, a French coach, began to set foot on the African continent a few years ago. He is indispensable for Senegal's appearance on the World Cup stage.

Aldrich smiled and said: "If you ask me, Mechu is also a difficult coach to deal with. I can't say that I can definitely beat him, but I will try hard! He has extraordinary experience on the African continent.

Coaching makes people yearn for and envy his achievements, because he can make the people of a country proud, and can bring a country from obscurity to the world stage. His achievements, ordinary people can only look up to him. Tomorrow, if we play against him, we will also

This will be a rare opportunity for me as a coach."

The European reporters smiled. Aldridge's words sounded like a hero's sympathy. At the same time, they also reflected the current situation. Europe is the leader in the field of football. Even if African teams suddenly emerge, the leaders are still relying on European coaches.

.

A reporter asked: "Senegal is likely to use a conservative anti-counterattack strategy to face England. What do you think of their tactics?"

"It's normal. No one stipulates how football should be played or what tactics a team must use. The existence is reasonable. No matter what tactics Senegal uses to play, I will not be surprised. At the end of the game, they won.

I would congratulate them, they lost and there is no point in discussing tactics, the same goes for England."

Aldrich replied lightly.

As for what tactics England will choose tomorrow, Aldrich said calmly: "We will stick to the usual formation. What kind of situation will be shown in the specific game must be based on the situation at the time and cannot be generalized."

In any case, Aldrich's comments or views on Senegal have won the favor of African journalists, and reporters who had previously said that he was a big name all showed a hint of shame.

In the professional field, Aldridge is never unreasonably arrogant or despises his opponents. He never gives people a sense of arrogance, which is one of the reasons why he is highly respected by the outside world.

Originally thinking that the press conference was over, Aldrich did not expect that a reporter from Fleet Street suddenly asked: "Mr. Hall, what do you think of Portugal's 0:1 loss to South Korea yesterday?

"

Aldrich was stunned, and all the reporters at the scene cheered up again.

Just yesterday, all the World Cup group matches came to an end.

First, Japan, one of the hosts, defeated Tunisia in the afternoon and advanced to the top 16. Then the European red devil Belgium defeated Russia and also entered the top 16.

And in the evening, the most controversial game since the start of this World Cup appeared.

Portugal vs. South Korea. Poland vs. the United States. Both games start at the same time.

South Korea and the United States both scored 4 points. Portugal scored 3 points and Poland scored 0 points.

If Portugal wants to qualify, starting from before the game, a draw will be very dangerous.

The reason is very simple. They cannot pin their hopes on Poland, expecting Poland to snipe the United States, because Portugal lost to the United States, 2:3. And Portugal beat Poland 4:0, and Poland also lost to South Korea before.

, no matter how you look at it, Poland cannot help Portugal advance.

Even though Poland scored two goals to lead the United States in the first 5 minutes of the game, Portugal still played offensive football against South Korea. This is a performance of a strong man. He must insist on himself and control his own destiny.

It's not about asking others for help.

Portugal put on a furious attack and set off a storm. Then, soon, the referee became the protagonist on the field.

Argentinian Sanchez could tolerate Song Zhongguo's continuous tackles and elbow movements against Figo, and he could ignore Kim Tae-young's vicious slashing of Conceicao. Under this penalty scale, the Portuguese players would naturally be angered, so their actions were also

It got worse. When Pinto made a tackle with both feet, the referee Sanchez simply took out the red card, as if without any warning, as if the referee only remembered that he had a card at this moment.

Portugal, who had to play 10 against 11, suffered another heavy blow in the 66th minute of the second half. Beto was sent off after two yellows and one red. At the same time, a decisive change occurred on the other side of the field. The Polish team led the United States 3:0.

, this is a score that can seal the victory.

As long as the Portuguese team maintains a tie, they will have the same points as the United States team and advance to the top 16 with a goal difference advantage.

However, the 11-on-9 South Korean team took advantage of the terrifying home atmosphere and did not give Portugal another chance. Four minutes later, Portugal had an obvious numerical disadvantage on the field. Park Ji-sung humiliated the ball in the penalty area and then broke through the gate. The Tai Chi Tigers defeated them.

Portugal, which has entered the golden generation, advanced to the top 16 with 7 points from three games.

And Portugal, who could advance as long as they got a draw, was ultimately eliminated.

Although Portugal did not have an ideal start to this competition, they showed strong resilience against Poland and were certainly not far behind in the match against the host South Korea. Without the referee’s double penalty scale, Portugal would not be easily angered. There must be something wrong with them themselves, the "golden generation"

The difficulty in proving themselves in competitions also has a lot to do with their mentality. If you count their red card data, you will know that the probability of them getting a red card is really not low.

However, when the referee became the focus and ensured that the South Korean team advanced strongly, the flavor of the game changed.

The World Cup should be about the players’ fighting and the coaches’ fighting skills, not the black-clad law enforcers’ role to steal the spotlight.

The emergence of the black-clad law enforcement officer has inevitably made many fans feel like they are being invaded by darkness.

And thinking about all the remarks Blatter said in Japan, at the same time as this darkness invades, the heart of the heart will be swept away by the cold.

"More shocking results will continue."

"The upset will not disappear just now. This is also my expectation for future games."

"The gap between the established teams and the traditional new teams has been bridged."

Compared with Pele's crow's mouth, Blatter's prediction seems more reliable. However, Blatter said that the world will be shocked, and South Korean coach Hiddink also said that the Korean team will shock the world. What can these two shocks be based on?

Realization is a matter of opinion.

Since the start of the World Cup, there has been the subversiveness of the French team's upsets and Argentina's early return home, as well as the shocking power brought by Brazil and Spain's offensive frenzy. But now, another color has begun to infect the color of the World Cup: darkness.

There is no doubt that in Incheon, the "red whistle" played a role in making the World Cup event begin to fade into a carnival of mediocrity.

When Aldridge was asked by reporters about yesterday's match in Portugal, he initially didn't want to speak, but then changed his mind.

He must say that some people must be "warned" not to try to make England a political victim.

Aldrich is fearless and has no fear of falling out with anyone.

All he wants is the fairness and seriousness of the competition that should be guaranteed.

"I am very sympathetic to Portugal's experience. The referee became the focus of discussion after the game. This shows that there is a problem with law enforcement. Portugal is the victim, but now it is being investigated by FIFA. Why? Just because the referee is absolutely untouchable.

Did you touch it? But when you are robbed, you should resist. Stand aside and make sarcastic remarks, saying that players must remain rational. Haha, I have never played football, but let me put myself in my shoes. If I were a player, I would

When I think I have been unfairly treated, what do I mean?

Do I understand rationally as compromising, giving in, shutting up and not resisting, or should I stand up and defend my rights? Defend the interests of my team? It is undeniable that the host country has an advantage. This advantage is reflected in the home atmosphere and familiarity with the environment where the event is held.

This is the advantage of the host. If someone forcibly gives the host an advantage, haha, such a person is the public enemy of fans all over the world and the enemy of football. If it were me, I would stand up and fight with the opponent at all costs.

Fighting, that’s who I am.”

As soon as Aldrich finished speaking, many people at the scene took a deep breath.

Young Marshal's words can easily lead to enmity!

Fifa said that it was impossible to kill him!

Indeed, just after the press conference, FIFA expressed its anger and dissatisfaction to the Football Association. As for the "fight" Aldridge said in the press conference, FIFA naturally did not take it seriously.

However, five years later, UEFA learned about the so-called resistance and fighting of the young coach, and how crazy it is to defend interests. It directly wrote the young coach into the history of European football, and has since changed the pattern of European football! (To be completed.)
