Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 303
Seeing Ronaldo passing the ball, Tony rushed forward immediately.

Beside him, the Valencia centre-back Albiol, who was in charge of man-marking Toni, was in hot pursuit.Although the start was a step slower, Albiol's hands were not idle.take off at tony
While fighting for the top, he clung to the hem of Tony's jersey where the referee couldn't see.

In other words, the quality of the Crystal Palace jersey is good, otherwise Tony's jersey would have to be torn.

Under Albiol's interference, Tony's take-off height was not enough.Seeing that it was impossible to head the ball directly, Tony simply rubbed his scalp, and the ball immediately flew to the back point of Valencia's goal.

According to Chen Ran's consistent tactical arrangement, the winger is usually responsible for the top spot.

At this time, Ribery has also entered Valencia's penalty area from the right.Seeing the ball flying towards his own area, he rushed up to compete for the top.

It's a pity that although Albiol was attracted by Tony, another central defender Elguera did not lose his position.

It is really difficult for Ribery, who is just 1.7 meters tall, to grab the ball from the head of Erguera, who is 184cm tall.

However, Ribery's approach to grab the header is not completely useless.

Under his interference, Elguera's ball failed to go far, and the ball flew to the arc of Valencia's penalty area.

According to Chen Ran's tactical arrangement, Kaka was responsible for guarding that area and waiting for an opportunity to shoot long shots.

Seeing the ball flying towards his position, Kaka quickly ran towards the landing point, ready to volley directly.

On the Valencia side, Ronald Koeman also made special arrangements for the defense at the front of the penalty area, and Albelda was responsible for protecting this area.

After seeing the flight trajectory of the ball and Kaka's movements, Albelda also rushed over.A flying shovel, trying to block Kaka's volley.

Kaka also discovered Albelda's intentions. He made a false shot and made a real dunk. After passing Albelda, he used his right foot again to take a curved shot.

The ball spun at high speed and flew towards the upper left corner of Valencia's goal. The goalkeeper Canizares immediately soared into the air, stretching his body to the limit.

It's a pity that Kaka's shot angle was too tricky, and the ball got into Valencia's net from between Canizares' fingertips and the goal post.

"GOAL!"

At 10:1 minutes into the second half, Crystal Palace finally broke the deadlock with Kaka's goal, leading Valencia 0-[-] away.

"Fxxxk!"

On the sidelines, seeing Ronald Koeman, who persisted for most of the game but fell short, couldn't help but swear.

Soon, less than 5 minutes after conceding the goal, Ronald Koeman replaced Vicente with Mata.Obviously, he is not reconciled to losing to Crystal Palace at home.

On the Crystal Palace side, what Chen Ran needs to consider is much more complicated than that of Ronald Koeman.

It's the night of October 10, and Crystal Palace are playing a Champions League game in Spain and Valencia.

On the night of October 10, Crystal Palace will go to Reading's away game to play the ninth round of the Premier League.

If you count the factor of traveling, the time left for the Crystal Palace players to rest between the two games is not even 24 hours.

Therefore, after Kaka scored a goal, even though he knew that a one-goal lead was not safe, Chen Ran turned around and called Guardiola over.

"Josep, you go and inform Cesc Fabregas and Mascherano to warm up and replace Kaka and Vieira with them later."

"Then Cesc Fabregas, Mascherano and Yaya Toure form a three-back midfielder. The task of organizing the offense is given to Fabregas, and the team's formation becomes 451."

"Boss, isn't it too early to shrink the formation now? A lead of one goal is not safe."

Hearing Chen Ran's order, Guardiola asked with some concern.He didn't think too much about it, but simply considered the problem from the perspective of this game.

"Josep, the interval between the next Premier League game against Reading and this game is too short, and we are only three points ahead of No.2 Manchester United. There is no room for error."

"So now I have to let a few main players down to rest in advance, to reserve some energy for the Premier League one day later."

"Understood, boss."

Knowing that Chen Ran is already preparing for the next game, Guardiola stopped talking and immediately turned back to the bench to arrange substitutions.

Soon, the Crystal Palace completed the change of players, and on the Valencia side, after seeing Chen Ran's series of actions, Ronald Koeman immediately understood that the Crystal Palace wanted to shrink the defense and keep the defense. A ball lead.

So, Ronald Koeman immediately walked to the sidelines and started shouting for his players to attack.I plan to take advantage of the opportunity of Crystal Palace to take the initiative to give up the initiative on the field, and take the opportunity to bring the score back.

However, although Chen Ran ordered Crystal Palace to shrink their formation to fight back, he still left Ronaldo and Messi on the field.

This made Ronald Koeman, who only wanted to score a goal to equalize the score, soon suffered.

In the 85th minute of the game, when Morientes' shot was firmly hugged by Cech again.

Cech got up quickly and threw the ball to Cesc Fabregas with a strong hand.

After receiving the ball, Cesc Fabregas pulled and dunked, and after dodging Baraja who stepped forward to press, he sent the ball to Messi on the right with a big foot.

At this time, Valencia's left-back Moretti saw Messi catch the ball and immediately came up to press closely, but he underestimated Messi's foot skills and physical flexibility.

Just when Moretti stretched out his foot to grab the ball from Messi's feet, Messi flicked the ball with his right foot, which just happened to make the ball pass between Moretti's legs, and then he immediately circled around Passed Moretti and played a pass through the crotch.

Moretti, who is 187cm tall, is like a wooden stake in front of Messi, and has been completely wiped out.When he turned around and wanted to chase Messi again, he couldn't catch up at all.

At this time, because Valencia has been aggressively attacking for a while, most of the players are still in the Crystal Palace half.

In addition to the goalkeeper Canizares, Valencia now has only two central defenders Elguera and Albiol left on the defense line. The right back Miguel also went up for an assist just now and has not rushed back.

On the Crystal Palace side, in addition to Messi, Tony in front and Ronaldo on the left joined the attack.

Suddenly, Crystal Palace actually formed a three-on-two situation in Valencia's half.

After passing Moretti, Messi took the ball and ran all the way towards Valencia's penalty area.

At the same time, Ronaldo on the left is also advancing at high speed, and Tony, who is guarding the Valencia penalty area, puts the two Valencia central defenders, Elguera and Albiol, in a dilemma. , Thinking of the penalty area to intercept Messi but not daring to go out.

Seeing that Messi was about to rush into the penalty area, Elguera, who knew he could no longer hesitate, asked Albiol to stay and mark Tony, and he rushed forward to prevent Messi from rushing into the penalty area.

Elguera's choice cannot be said to be wrong, and he has no choice but to do so.

However, this leaves Ronaldo on the left unmarked.

Seeing that there was an open space on Ronaldo's side, Messi did not get entangled with Elguera who rushed to intercept.With a flick of his ankle, he passed the ball to Ronaldo who was sprinting from the left to the Valencia penalty area at high speed.

Realizing that the situation was critical, Valencia's goalkeeper Canizares immediately abandoned the goal and jumped, trying to punch the ball directly from the passing line.

At the same moment, Ronaldo also aimed at the flight line of the ball and jumped high, trying to smash the ball directly into Valencia's goal.

Just when everyone's eyes were focused here, Canizares suddenly found that his jumping height was not enough.

He swung his fist so hard that he hit a lonely one without even touching the skin of the ball.

In the next moment, there was a "bang" in Canizares' ears.He didn't need to look to know that it was the sound of hitting the ball, and the contact part was very solid.

Valencia's goal is now unguarded because Canizares abandoned the goal.

Ronaldo's header was very straight, and it easily flew into the net from the middle of the goal.

"GOAL!"

With the reconnection of Ronaldo and Messi, Crystal Palace leads Valencia 2:0.

As soon as Crystal Palace scored the second goal, the entire Valencia, from the coach Ronald Koeman to the players on the field, was immediately discouraged.

Because they all know that in the few game hours left, it is impossible to reverse Crystal Palace.

In the end, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Crystal Palace beat Valencia 2-0 away.

While winning two consecutive victories in the UEFA Champions League group stage this season, Chen Ran also got a "first-level chicken blood card" from the system.

After the game, Chen Ran flew back to England with the team overnight.

After returning to London in the early morning of the next day, Chen Ran did not let the team members go home, but directly took the team to the hotel to rest.

A day later, Chen Ran and Crystal Palace came to the Madejski Stadium, home of Reading Club, for the ninth round of the Premier League.

Although the Reading club is not a strong team, this game is the last of the seven games in the 21-day devil's schedule of Crystal Palace at this stage.

Whether it is the main players or the substitute players, they are exhausted physically and mentally.Even Chen Ran himself, who didn't have to play, wanted to go home and sleep for three days.

Considering that he had just finished playing the UEFA Champions League in Spain a day ago, Chen Ran had to send a large number of substitute players in this Premier League.

Even though Chen Ran used the "Level [-] Recovery Card", "Level [-] Sight Card" and "Free Kick Master Card" in one go, the poor overall state of the team still prevented Crystal Palace from winning the game.

In the end, with the goals of Jan Kohler, Cavani and Modric, Crystal Palace was tied 3:3 by Reading in the away game.

而在本轮英超联赛的其他比赛里，曼联在老特拉福德4：0大胜维冈竞技，切尔西在客场1：0小胜博尔顿，阿森纳在主场3：2力克桑德兰，利物浦则在安菲尔德被托特纳姆热刺2：2逼平。

Since Crystal Palace's nine-game winning streak was terminated, Manchester United took the opportunity to narrow the gap with Crystal Palace.

Now, Manchester United is only one point behind Crystal Palace, and Chelsea have also narrowed the points gap to one goal.

Then came another national team match day, with no club matches for two weeks.

Although this gave the Crystal Palace club a chance to recuperate, Chen Ran was not happy about it.

Because most of Crystal Palace's current players are the main players of their respective national teams.Not only did the national team not get a chance to rest on the match day, but due to the long-distance flight, the consumption of the body was even greater.

Chen Ran now only hopes that his players will not suffer injuries in the national team games, and thank God.

However, the appearance of a piece of news quickly attracted Chen Ran's attention.

G14 announced on the official website that the Crystal Palace Club has officially become the No.19 member of the organization.

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Although the G14 organization has not been active for a long time, its well-known members have made this organization never lack attention.

Since its establishment in Brussels, Belgium in 2000, the G14 has added four new members in 2002, and has not accepted any new members since then.

Unexpectedly, after five years, G14 suddenly added a new member.

Moreover, this member is also a popular fried chicken in international football in recent years, and Crystal Palace has almost won all the championship trophies.

When two organizations with a high degree of attention met, it immediately detonated the sports media all over the world.

"After five years of silence, will the G14 organization start to exert its strength again?"

"The addition of Crystal Palace makes the weight of the G14 organization in the football circle even more impossible to ignore."

"Crystal Palace joining G14, this is a standard strong alliance, UEFA should be careful."

"After the establishment of the Galaxy Football Group, Crystal Palace joined the G14. The Hua people's layout in the football circle has become more and more profound."

"Crystal Palace is now a member of both the G14 and the Galaxy Football Group. Let us wait and see whether these two organizations will have further cooperation plans in the future."

Thousands of miles away in China, the news that Crystal Palace joined the G14 also detonated major football forums.

"Come on, Chen Ran is getting bigger and bigger now. Joining G14, does this mean that Crystal Palace has been recognized by those old giants clubs?"

"That's for sure. Didn't you see that G14 hasn't added a new member for five years?"

"That's right, there are so many clubs in the world, why is it Crystal Palace? It's not because Crystal Palace has performed too aggressively in the past few years, almost winning those old giants clubs all over the place."

"Haha, do you think it's because Chen Ran defeated them all, so he had to use the method of recruiting to win over the Crystal Palace?"

"Fuck! What the upstairs said makes sense."

"The dragon slaying warrior has finally become a dragon!"
