Yes, Villas-Boas led his undefeated team Porto to Ireland.
The media reporters who had been squatting here for a long time all rushed forward.
They flocked to the future Europa League champion coach, and they had too many questions to ask.
Yes, in the eyes of many people, Villas-Boas has already won the championship.
After all, there are only half of the 1860 Munich teams left, and it is impossible to pose any threat to the powerful Porto.
Facing these excited reporters, Boas had a smile on his face.
Song Guotao, a reporter from China, suddenly asked, "Mr. Villas-Boas, what do you think of the opponent Munich 1860 in this game?"
A very fair question.
Boas glanced at Song Guotao in front of him, and he immediately realized that this was a reporter from Asia, or maybe even a reporter from Tong Yi's home country, China.
He smiled affectionately, and then said, "Obviously, Munich 1860 is an incredible team this season. They performed very well in the Bundesliga and shocked the world. I am concerned about their games and for them
I regret not winning the Bundesliga championship. If, if their players had no problems in the last round of games, I believe the Bundesliga championship this season should belong to Munich 1860."
This answer made Song Guotao very satisfied, but why did this answer sound a bit like watching others order food?
Villas-Boas continued, "Munich 1860 is a very strong team, and their head coach is also very young and very strong. To be honest, I admire Tong Yi very much, he is really very good.
Awesome. Facing them, this game is a test for me and my players!"
Villas-Boas is not telling lies, he has been paying attention to Tong Yi and Munich 1860 this season.
After all, Munich 1860 was so good this season and was their opponent in the Europa League final. He must have taken it very seriously. After the first leg of the Europa League semi-final, he asked his colleagues on the coaching staff to collect Munich 1860
He has watched all the game videos and highlights from this season.
Even later, he asked his assistant to come to some video materials of Munich 1860 in the Bundesliga last season and study Munich 1860 in detail.
After this research, Boas was shocked and felt that this young man from China was really powerful. Moreover, there were even some similarities between them.
Initially, this similarity refers to the tactical style.
Although Villas-Boas is hailed as "Little Mourinho" by many media, he never thinks so himself.
Because his tactical style is still very different from Mourinho.
< br> Although his tactics also have shadows of Mourinho's iron-blooded defense, they are very different.
Villas-Boas's tactics are actually close to those of Guardiola in the future. It can also be said that he was influenced by Barcelona's tactical style. He still maintains his focus on possession of the ball, which was completely abandoned by Mourinho.
Understand.
At present, Villas-Boas's tactical style emphasizes ball control and high pressure defense.
Yes, Villas-Boas's Porto also pays attention to high-pressure defense.
This is somewhat similar to Tong Yi's tactics and Klopp's tactics. Many people think that this will be the mainstream tactic in world football in the future. This tactic is more aimed at Barcelona's emphasis on ball possession and no control.
A tactic born out of forward tactics.
Because during this period, with the success of Barcelona and the Spanish national team, it seems that the tactics of the Spanish national team began to become popular around the world. In order to break the Spanish monopoly and this popular trend, the tactics of high pressure gradually gained popularity.
Pay attention to.
Of course, the tactic of high-position pressing is not a recent phenomenon. It has existed before. But it has never received such attention before. Now it seems that the tactic of high-position pressing is going to become the mainstream in the future. What is important is to move the defense line forward.
Push and set up a defensive line directly near the midfield of the opponent's penalty area to keep the danger away from your own goal.
At this time, Boas also followed this approach.
However, he is not like Mourinho, who is defensive and pursues one-to-zeroism.
Villas-Boas emphasized defense while maintaining the appearance of beautiful football. He emphasized possession of the ball and the independent play of players.
Now his tactical formation is 433, and his two wingers have very strong ball-holding ability and stronger ability to advance with the ball. More importantly, the two wingers are closer to the ribs of the penalty area. The emphasis is to go directly to
Threaten the opponent's goal, rather than roaming the wings looking for cooperation with teammates or crosses.
His two wingers are very capable of attacking the goal. More often than not, the wingers directly confront the opponent's center back or full back. After attracting the defense, they either attack independently or cooperate with the center.
That's why his high-position pressing defense tactics are so sharp.
Because his two wingers have very strong offensive, impact and suppression abilities, they can quickly form a high-pressure formation in the frontcourt.
Porto's current offensive trident is very powerful. These three are Varela, Falcao and Hulk. These three are so strong that they even pressed the young James Rodriguez to death.
There is no chance to stand out on the bench.
Silvestre Varela was born in Portugal and is of Cape Verdean descent, somewhat similar to Nani.
He joined Porto last year and performed very well last season. The number of goals in the team was only less than that of center Falcao. This season his performance is even better, playing 26 times in the Portuguese Super League and scoring
At the age of 10, he was successfully selected for the Portuguese national team.
Varela is a seemingly slender black man, but his physical strength is not bad, and his advantages lie in his fast speed and extreme dribbling and passing on the wing. This is why he can become Porto's offensive third.
The reason for the halberd.
Hulk is known as the Hulk on the football field. He is 180cm tall and weighs more than 80kg. He can be called an indestructible tank on the football field. His breakthroughs on the wing can crush most defenders, and what he is best at is heavy artillery.
His shooting can be called a cannonball, and his skills at his feet are exquisite and his explosive power is super strong. He is simply a perverted existence.
This season he played 26 times in the Portuguese Super League and scored 23 goals, becoming the top scorer in the Portuguese Super League.
Falcao is also a super shooter. His biggest advantage is his awareness of grabbing points in front of the goal and his dominance in the penalty area. Although he is only 177cm tall, he has a strong physique and outstanding jumping ability. In physical confrontation and
He is very good at heading the ball, and his skills in getting rid of people in the penalty area are amazing. His use is also very reasonable, and his impact is very strong. Like Hulk, he often relies on his body to overtake and crush the opponent's defense.
players.
This season he played 22 times in the Portuguese Super League and scored 16 goals, which is very efficient.
More importantly, he scored 16 goals in 13 appearances in the Europa League this season, breaking the record previously held by German player Jurgen Klinsmann for the most goals in a single season in the Europa League.
When these three press and defend in the high position, they will also bring a strong sense of oppression to the opponent.
What's more important is that these three are also very active when defending in the frontcourt, and their bodies are also very flexible, often giving people a suffocating sense of oppression. This is why Porto can remain undefeated in the Portuguese Super League this season.
important reason.
Moreover, Porto's midfielder also includes Guarin, Moutinho and Fernando, etc., and the defense is also very strong. No wonder the Portuguese media will say that this Porto team is better than the one that Mourinho led to win the Champions League.
Porto is even stronger.
Therefore, after seeing Tong Yi's tactics, Villas-Boas was very surprised.
More importantly, he felt a sense of sympathy for each other.
They have similar tactics, are also very young, and have achieved good results. Villas-Boas really admires Tong Yi.
Villas-Boas also said, "Tong Yi is very powerful, and his tactical concepts are also very good. I value him more, and I believe that his future will be extremely brilliant. It is also an honor for me to be able to play against him at this time. I hope that the two of us can bring you a wonderful showdown in this game.
"
To be honest, Villas-Boas also admires many players in the Munich 1860 lineup.
The one who enthused him the most was De Bruyne. To be honest, he was very surprised that Tong Yi could discover a young player like De Bruyne. To be honest, he was a little tempted and wanted to give De Bruyne to him.
Bring Porto.
But it's obviously impossible.
Porto likes to spend a lot of money buying people, but they are better at selling people at a big price.
Many of the players in your current squad at Porto are highly sought after.
Now their super forward Falcao has attracted crazy competition across Europe. Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, Juventus, Manchester United and Manchester City are all very interested in this forward, and even the current price has been raised.
36 million euros.
Similarly, Hulk is no less popular than Falcao.
There are many teams chasing Hulk now, and the offers are also very high.
Many people know that this black shop in Porto is going to start ripping off customers again.
At this time, some media reporters also asked, "So, Mr. Villas-Boas, who do you think can win the final victory in this game and win the Europa League this season?"
Suddenly, all the reporters looked up at Boas.
Boas smiled slightly and said, "Of course I hope that our Porto can win the final championship, and we have prepared a lot for this game. I think we should be able to win the championship. Munich 1860 is very strong.
We are stronger in Porto!"
After a pause, Villas-Boas continued, "Of course, we will not underestimate Munich 1860. Their strength is very strong. If we underestimate them, they will really give us a fatal blow. I attach great importance to it."
They, and they deserve to be taken seriously."
The media reporters nodded one after another. They could feel the importance Boas attached to Munich 1860.
Villas-Boas also said, "Although Munich 1860's lineup is not very complete, they are still very strong. I watched their last league round. Although they lost half of their main players, they still almost defeated the Bundesliga champion Dortmund. In this way
The team is super strong and we have to go all out.”
Song Guotao looked at Villas-Boas. He felt that it was no accident that Villas-Boas achieved such results. Now that their team is so powerful, he did not underestimate any opponent and played every game as a final.
