Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 232 Prepare in advance for the disappearance of the rebirth advantage
With the whistle of the referee, the first half ended, and the Crystal Palace players returned to the dressing room with a two-goal lead.

Because Crystal Palace completely dominated the game in the first half, Chen Ran had nothing to say.Just a few words of encouragement, without any substitutions and adjustments.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Crystal Palace was still fully pressed, and continued to exert tremendous pressure on Sevilla's defense.

In two minutes, Ibrahimovic received a cross from Franck Ribery on the right, made a wonderful hook in the air, and scored another goal.

"GOAL!"

Crystal Palace lead Sevilla 3-0.

As Crystal Palace scored the third goal, Chen Ran on the sidelines found that the Sevilla players were a little discouraged.

After all, in this kind of championship battle that determines the outcome, so far only Liverpool is the only club that can stage today's big reversal after falling behind by three goals.

Once Sevilla relaxed, Crystal Palace's offense became more handy.

In the 607th minute, Ronaldo received a free kick from Modric, a back row shot to the top, and smashed the ball into the goal guarded by Palop again.

"GOAL!"

Crystal Palace lead Sevilla 4-0.

If the third goal discouraged the Sevilla players, then the fourth goal made the entire Sevilla team start to collapse.

No. 705 minutes, saw that Ibrahimovic, who had just joined the team like himself, had already scored two goals, and Kaka was no longer keen on passing the ball.

As a midfielder, he took the initiative to return to the midfield to ask for the ball.Then one person began to stage a good long-distance attack, and broke through from the middle. After passing four Sevilla players in a row, he shot hard and broke through the goal guarded by Palop again.

"GOAL!"

Crystal Palace lead Sevilla 5-0.

Boy, these guys are going crazy.

Chen Ran on the sidelines was also a little dumbfounded.The game lasted less than 10 minutes. If this trend continues, Crystal Palace may even score goals.

"Boss, I feel that the lead of five goals is almost the same. Should we accept it as soon as it is good?"

Seeing Sevilla's head coach Juan Ramos sitting on the bench with a pale face, obviously no longer in the mood to direct the game, Guardiola couldn't help walking to Chen Ran to remind him.

"Well, five goals is almost the same, and Liverpool only reversed three goals."

After thinking about it, Chen Ran felt that it was unnecessary to go any further, so he turned his head and explained to Guardiola:

"Josep, you warm up Jan Kohler, Yaya Toure and Mascherano, then replace Ibrahimovic, Kaka and Vieira."

"The formation of 352 remains unchanged, let Modric play the midfielder, Yaya Toure and Mascherano as the double midfielder."

"clear."

Soon, everyone saw that Crystal Palace had replaced the three main players on the field, and everyone knew in their hearts that Chen Ran was about to retire.

However, Chen Ran intends to stop, but no matter how many players are on the field, if there is a chance, he will shoot.

As a result, it really went in.

No. 808 minutes, or from the right of Franck Ribery's pass.Tony and Jan Kohler in the middle failed to grab the point, and the ball was pushed out of the penalty area by the Sevilla defender.

But the ball was not pushed far, and Modric, who judged the landing point early, rushed to the vicinity of the landing point first.Before the ball hit the ground, he went up with a volley that he was good at.

"boom!"

The ball hit the lower edge of the Sevilla goal crossbar hard and bounced into the net.

"GOAL!"

Crystal Palace lead Sevilla 6-0.

"Ahem, Josep, actually I don't intend to score again."

Chen Ran looked back at Guardiola helplessly.

Guardiola had no choice but to return a wry smile.

He also knew that Chen Ran had already stopped, but the Crystal Palace played too smoothly today, no matter how they played.

In the end, with the referee's whistle, the Sevilla players finally ended this nightmare game.

Crystal Palace swept Sevilla 6-0 and won the UEFA Super Cup for the first time.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for winning the UEFA Super Cup. The champion will be rewarded with a bonus of 1000 million euros. In addition, there is an economic crisis in a Brazilian second-tier club, and there is a possibility of acquisition."

Brazilian second division club?
What do you mean?
Could this be the next potential target of the Galaxy Football Group?

It's not impossible, after all, South America is rich in excellent players.There is a club of its own over there, which is very helpful for discovering and cultivating good seedlings in South America.

Just when Chen Ran wanted to continue looking down to see which Brazilian second division club it was, he was picked up and thrown into the sky again.

This time, what he saw was the starry sky of Monaco.

Damn, are these guys over yet?
Isn't it just a European Super Cup?Is this worth throwing too?
After receiving the European Super Cup trophy, Chen Ran was once again drunk by his players while celebrating.

The next morning, the first thing Chen Ran did when he woke up was to quickly check the details of the Brazilian second division club.

Recife Sports, founded in 1905, is located in Recife, the fifth largest city in Brazil.

Currently insolvent and on the verge of bankruptcy, the current boss is eager to find a successor.

Good guy, the clubs of these football powerhouses, regardless of their strength, have a century-old history at every turn, and it's quite bluffing to say it.

Since it is a Brazilian club, of course Chen Ran is going to find Luis, the South American boss.

After returning to London, Chen Ran immediately called the little fat man to the office.

"Luis, do you know about the Recife Sports team?"

"What? Recife Sports? This is a Brazilian second-tier club, right? Chen, why did you remember to mention this team?"

The little fat man looked at Chen Ran in amazement. He really couldn't understand the relationship between the Recife sports and the Crystal Palace.

"I heard they had a recent economic crisis and the current owners are looking around for a willing buyer."

"What? Chen, are you interested in taking over Recife Sports?"

The little fat man understood what Chen Ran meant, but he still couldn't figure it out.With the current strength and status of Crystal Palace, wouldn't it be too much of a shame for Chen Ran to acquire a Brazilian Serie B club?
"That's right. South America is rich in excellent players, and having a club there is very helpful in discovering and cultivating talented young players in South America."

"My initial plan is to see if this Recife Sports Club is worth selling. If there are no problems, I will buy it and join the Galaxy Football Group."

"Chen, if you want to buy a Brazilian club, why don't you just buy a team from the Brazilian League One? This is worthy of our Crystal Palace."

"Luis, it is precisely because the Crystal Palace is too popular now that we have to be more low-key when operating the Galaxy Football Group project."

"The acquisition of a team in the Brazilian League One is too loud, and it is easy to attract opposition. And a team in the Second League like Recife Sporting is a team that is facing an economic crisis. I believe no one will object to our acquisition."

"Besides, I bought Brazilian clubs mainly to discover and train young players from South America. Of course it's good to get good results. If not, I don't force it. After all, our focus is always Crystal Palace Club. Do you understand?"

"Understood. But I don't know much about sports in Recife. I need to call back and ask, and I will tell you after I find out."

"Wait a moment."

Chen Ran stopped the little fat man who was in a hurry to go back and make a call.

"When you call, by the way, ask your dad if he is interested in cooperating with me to acquire Recife Sports."

"Cooperate to acquire Recife Sports?"

The little fat man was taken aback, not understanding what Chen Ran meant?
After all, with Chen Ran's current financial resources, it is very easy to acquire a Brazilian second division club.

"Yes. Of course, if I really want to buy Recife Sports, I will definitely take a controlling stake. So the shares left to your father are only 40.00%[-] at most. You have to make this clear to him, understand? "

"Understood, I remember."

Seeing that Chen Ran had nothing else to say, the little fat man hurriedly left Chen Ran's office.

The introduction of some big-name agents in the Galaxy Football Group is a plan that Chen Ran has long thought up.

After all, Chen Ran's advantage is that he has a better understanding of the development of world football before 2022.In particular, he knows which players will become stars in the future.

However, this advantage will gradually decrease over time until it disappears.

Chen Ran has been preparing for this day, so he thought of these big-name agents who have passed the test of time.The vision of these people to discover the stars is genuine.

Therefore, Chen Ran planned to tie these big-name brokers to his boat.

If it's just ordinary buying and selling players, it may not be very attractive to these big-name agents.

But what if you also make them one of the owners of the club?
Then for their own benefit, they will definitely do their best to make suggestions for the development of the club.

It just so happened that the system rewarded the opportunity to acquire Recife Sports, so Chen Ran planned to test the effect on this Brazilian second division club first.

I believe that with the addition of Figel, a big man in the South American football brokerage circle, Recife Sports will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort when recruiting young talents from the South American football circle.

If Recife Sports' experiment works well, then Chen Ran plans to attack Mendes and Raiola next.

If all goes well, even if the time in the future exceeds 2022, Chen Ran doesn't have to worry about not being able to buy talented players.

After the UEFA Super Cup is over, it means that the new season of European football has officially begun.

In the first round of the Premier League, Crystal Palace's opponent is Middlesbrough.

Since Crystal Palace's new stadium is still under construction, Crystal Palace will still rent Arsenal's home games this season.

However, because Arsenal's new stadium was officially opened this season, Crystal Palace also moved to this new stadium to play with Zhanguang.

However, the rental fee has increased from 300 million euros a year last year to 500 million euros a year now.

Another point is that because the Crystal Palace cut off the sponsorship of Emirates, Arsenal's new stadium still uses the name of Highbury Stadium for the time being before finding a title sponsor.

After the baptism of the Triple Crown last season, the players of Crystal Palace are now playing more easily when facing these teams that are not as strong as their own.

With goals from Toni, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Ronaldo, Crystal Palace beat Middlesbrough 3-0 in their first Premier League game of the new season.

The FA is also quite abnormal, arranging double matches a week at the beginning of the season.

Three days later, Crystal Palace ushered in the second round of the Premier League.

With goals from Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Ronaldo, Crystal Palace beat Aston Villa 2-1 away.

Another three days later, the third round of the Premier League began again.

Crystal Palace beat Wigan Athletic 1-0 this time with a header from Tony's Thiago Silva.

A week later, in the fourth round of the Premier League, Crystal Palace faced Manchester City at home.

With Kaka's goal, Crystal Palace beat Manchester City 1-0 and won the league's first four consecutive victories.

After the end of the first four rounds of the Premier League, the standings were in chaos.

Except for the stable performance of Crystal Palace and Manchester United, both have achieved four consecutive victories.

Portsmouth and Everton both ranked third and No.4 in the standings with three wins and one draw and ten points.

Chelsea got three wins and one loss with nine points and was squeezed to No.5. Liverpool was so exaggerated that they only got four points and ranked No.11.

And the worst thing is Arsenal, who only scored two points, ranked No. 18 and entered the relegation zone.

After the end of the fourth round of the Premier League, the new season of the UEFA Champions League will begin again.

Crystal Palace are in Group G this time, along with Germany's Hamburg, Portugal's Porto and Russia's CSKA Moscow.

With such a good grouping result, Chen Ran, who had long been mentally prepared for his non-chieftain attribute, was not used to it.

On September 9th, the first game of Group G of the 14-2006 UEFA Champions League group stage, Crystal Palace will go away to challenge Hamburg.

Although the strength of the three teams in the same group was not as strong as Crystal Palace, Chen Ran still did not dare to take it lightly and made sufficient preparations for this game.

Because he found that in the Hamburg lineup, there are still many stars he is familiar with.

Obviously, this is not a soft persimmon that can be pinched casually.

On the back line, there are Belgian international Kompany, Argentine international Sorin, Iranian international Madavikia, Dutch international Matheisen, Cameroon international Atuba and other famous players.

There are also Dutch international Van der Vaart, De Jong, German international Troshovsky and other famous players in the midfield.

There are also Peruvian international Guerrero, Serbia and Montenegro international Liuboya and other famous players on the forward line.

Considering that it is the first UEFA Champions League game of the new season, and it is still an away game, Chen Ran decided to focus on stability first.

The three-back formation that Crystal Palace played well in the previous few games will temporarily return to the original four-back formation for this game.
