The Football Journey After Soul Shifting

Thinking back to the past, before this European Cup 14 final match, Italy and the Netherlands had played against the Netherlands 4 times in official matches, with 1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses. Of all the 4 games, the most talked about should be The semi-finals of the European Cup in the Netherlands 4 years ago.

In that game, the Italian full-back Zambrotta was sent off shortly after the start for maliciously infringing on the Dutch winger Overmars. Staff line.

Just like Italy's mediocre defensive line in World War II, although Cannavaro and Maldini's defense is unique in the world, the hosts still found a lot of scoring opportunities with more than 30 shots. 3 shots and even 2 penalty kicks, but Dutch captain Frank De Boer and Kluivert's penalty kicks did not pass the Santordo, who was in full form in this game, and were successively missed by the excellent Tortoise. Aldo saves.Then, in the penalty shootout, poor Frank de Boer missed his second penalty of the game and Bosvelt's penalty was saved by a scorching Toldo. Success, as the Italian team won the penalty shootout 3:1, this European Cup semi-final has also become a classic battle in the history of the European Cup.

Four years later, the two teams met again in the European Cup. This game was also considered by many media and fans to be the collision between Van Nistelrooy, the best striker in Europe in 2004, and the newly promoted golden boy Mariano Arini. , The fans of the two teams completed the warm-up early.

Liu Wen's new fan, Brazilian football king Pelé once again expressed his strong affection for the Azzurri when he was interviewed by the media before the start of the game, expressing his optimism for the Italian team to eliminate the Netherlands again in the 14 finals.Mariano Arini will score in the game.

As soon as this remark came out, the fans of the Tulip Legion burst into smiles.Fireworks were set off throughout the night in the open space in front of the Faro Algarve Stadium, where the 14 finals were played.

Maybe it was Bailey's deep malice.In the last training session before the game, Trapattoni experimented with the 451 formation for the first time. Liu Wen put on the yellow vest, which symbolizes the main force, and replaced Camoranesi in the right midfield position. superior.

In the 45-minute training match, Vieri was impressive and scored 20 yuan in 3 minutes. Liu Wen also scored a free kick in the 44th minute. The main team beat the substitute team 5-1.But towards the end of the training match, the unfortunate deity Cassandra makes another visit.Vieri, who had just performed a hat-trick, sprained his ankle in the process of turning around and shooting, and will miss the 14-final against the Netherlands.Immediately afterwards, in the light exercise monkey game, the right forward Camoranesi, who had just returned from injury, strained his groin again because of a simple pass and catch, and bid farewell to the European Cup in advance .

For the two unfortunate news that followed, the Italian fans were in mourning, and the great Pele lay down again.The same word has appeared in countless Italian tabloids: fxxk pele.

……

When Liu Wen started warming up on the lawn of the Algarve Stadium in Faro, there were loud cheers from the stands. As a newly promoted young student in Italy, Mariano Arini's popularity index is comparable to that of Apple stock.Every move can lead to enthusiastic cheers from the Italian fans.Faintly overwhelmed Francisco Totti on the other end.

On the other side of the Algarve Stadium in Faro, many Dutch fans hung up banners early, and the most conspicuous one was a full-body cartoon portrait of Pele.There is a miniature version of Godzilla under your feet, with the words: god bless pele!

Liu Wen directly ignored these banners.Warming up on his own, if Bailey's curse works.Why do you want to be a superman?

In this much-anticipated European Cup 14 final, due to the accidental injuries of Vieri and Camoranesi, Liu Wen was placed in the right forward position, Gilardino and Del Piero served as double forwards, Totti, Liu Wen, Perotta and Gattuso formed a four-man midfield.Compared with the previous games, this midfield combination is more balanced in offense and defense.

In contrast to the Dutch team, their striker is Manchester United's thriving small restricted area king Van Nistelrooy and Kluivert partner.In the midfield, it is worth noting that Arjen Robben, a 21-year-old teenager from Eindhoven, replaced Overmars as an organizational left midfielder, just in line with Liu Wen.

Liu Wen has read reports that this young player who will join Chelsea this summer is only 21 years old, but he thinks that Robben's face is 31 years old, and some people will believe it.

After Cannavaro and Frank de Boer exchanged team flags, Liu Wen lined up, held back a smile and shook hands with Robben, Liu Wen walked back to his own half, Gilardino and Del Piero walked to the middle circle, Ready to tee off.

The referee, Michel from Slovakia, blew the whistle in his mouth, and the Euro 14 final between Italy and the Netherlands officially started.

Gilardino passed the ball to Del Piero, Del Piero passed it to Liu Wen, Liu Wen received the ball, faced Robben who was defending him, kicked the ball lightly behind Robben, and went around from the other side .

Robben made an empty move, but Davis, the Dutch midfielder with a ponytail, made up for it and started entanglement with Liu Wen. Under Davis' pressure, Liu Wen knocked the ball horizontally to De Rossi, and then He was knocked to the ground by Davis.

The referee did not stop the game. De Rossi's direct pass was cut off by Van Bommel. The Dutch midfielder slowed down a little. With a long pass, the right back Reziger on the right received the ball, 45 Kluivert headed the ball slightly wide of the right post.

There was a neat exclamation from the Italian fans.In just half a minute of the opening, the Dutch completed a threatening attack. In the next period of time, the two sides began to test each other.

In the 5th minute, after several inversions, Ruud van Nistelrooy knocked the ball back in the penalty area, and Seedorf missed a long shot in front of the penalty area.

No. In 11 minutes, Italy won a well-positioned frontcourt positioning kick, and Liu Wen's curve ball was blocked out of the bottom line by Van der Sar's single punch.

Two minutes later, Robben hit Liu Wen's defense in front of him and tried to force a breakthrough with his left foot. Ben squeezed behind him, but was knocked to the ground again by the rushing Davis.

The referee still did not stop the game. The Dutch wild boar Davis broke through from the left and made a pass. Nesta's header was not far enough to clear the siege. Ruud van Nistelrooy volleyed vigorously with his right foot from the right side of the penalty area against Buffon who was attacking, but Without pressing it, the ball flew high over the crossbar.

As the game progressed, the two sides gradually began to speed up, and the game entered a high-speed running stage. In the No.201 minute, Davis once again found a cross from the left. For the ball, fortunately Cannavaro took the lead in grabbing the position in the small penalty area, grabbing the header in front of Ruud van Nistelrooy to clear the ball and push the ball out of the bottom line.

A series of quick attacks from both sides set off the first flood at the Faro Algarve Stadium, and the sound of cheers and singing resounded throughout the audience.

Liu Wen got entangled with Davis for the third time. This time, the Dutch boar finally felt the power of Godzilla. Under Liu Wen's pressure, he failed to protect the ball and was stabbed by Liu Wen. Perotta After getting the ball, he immediately knocked the ball back to Liu Wen. Davis immediately stepped forward to pester him. Liu Wen dunked the ball and felt a sharp pain in his calf. Shake Davis out of his head.

"Beautiful!" the on-site commentator Paul Klingen quickly explained, "Arini said to the referee, hey, referee, someone just kicked me, please give him a card. The referee told him, don't Nao, go back and kick your ball. So Arini said ok, see you later..."

The Italian fans booed loudly.

After Liu Wen passed Davis, he ignored Robben's defense and forcibly passed the ball on the right for the second time. The future Peter Pan was once again left behind, facing Van Burkhorst's defense again Speed ​​up, force overtaking, and send the ball into the penalty area with a low ball on the edge of the penalty area.

"One, two, three, four, five... Davies and van Burkhorst kicked Mariano Arini five times in a row without knocking him down, the referee ignored it... monster , Go to the master ball! The Age of Discovery is as obedient as a bouncy ball under his feet, and Arini made a pass!!"

In Paul Klingen's fast speech, Gilardino, who was outflanking, kicked the ball. (To be continued..)
