road to victory

Chapter 120

During the intermission, the head coach of Slavia Prague went into a rage in the locker room of the visiting team. The voice could even be heard by Vincent who was passing by. It must be tempered, Fan Shang should make good use of this.

The situation changed suddenly in the second half. Bordeaux changed from the previous state of retreating across the board and began to attack from the beginning, mainly focusing on the left and center. Slavia Prague was caught off guard. Their coach took a break at halftime At the time, the arrangement was how to attack, and the defense was not considered at all. The players also agreed. They also watched the video of Bordeaux, and they were more defensive and counterattack than Italy.

So the first goal in the second half came so fast. Sanuno took the ball in the middle and passed it straight into the penalty area. The angry central defender, without saying a word, pushed Shevchenko from behind when he had already been passed.Of course, the referee could not turn a blind eye to such an obvious foul. When the whistle sounded, not only did Bordeaux get a penalty, but the central defender also received a red card.However, this central defender was also a bachelor, without explaining a word, he just took off his jersey and grabbed it in his hand, and then walked slowly back to the locker room.

Of course, this kind of opportunity belongs to Chilavert. He volleyed vigorously, and the ball was already spinning in the net before the goalkeeper moved.

3:0 Bordeaux expanded the score in the second half, and Slavia Prague had one foot in the next round, which was pulled out by Bordeaux.

Slavia Prague is not only behind in the score now, but also in the total score, and has been sent off again, and it is still the backbone of the defense. This is simply making things worse.The most tangled thing at this time is the head coach of Slavia Prague. He is now undecided whether to change to a central defender or continue this reckless attack.

Fan Shang is now sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, he does not stand up anymore, just sits on the bench, watching the field calmly.The head coach of Slavia Prague is all tangled up, not to mention the players. They have the situation in Bordeaux's last game on the field, and they are seriously out of touch, especially because they are missing a central defender.

Within minutes, their procrastination learned their lesson and Shevchenko, who had been missing goals today, got a one-on-one with the goalkeeper on a counter-attack, aiming for the keeper's rib cage. , passing the ball accurately between the arms and legs of the hitting goalkeeper.

4:0, Bordeaux has basically locked the game.At this time, Fan Shang also began to deploy troops. Pires, Sanuno and Papin who ran a little more in this field were replaced one after another, and the three old midfielders Lucas, Dudial and Causi were replaced. .

"First of all, congratulations to Bordeaux for qualifying. Is the style of play like today's game Bordeaux's regular tactics?" Another person asked.

Although Bordeaux has an excellent record, its background is still poor. In France, people pay attention to and focus on Paris, Marseille, and Monaco. Although Bordeaux has a glorious history, the French media think that Bordeaux is at most a second group. The leader of the group, not the powerful of the first group.

Originally, Slavia Prague had no chance of attacking and couldn't find a way out in the midfield sweep of the three.Bordeaux did not organize any decent counterattacks anymore, mainly because there were too few people, and only Nedved and Shevchenko were left to attack, and Nedved had to complete the defensive task.

"This week is mainly my own reflection. The players have no problems. The problem lies with me. I just found a way for this reversal." Vincent looked at the head coach of Slavia Prague, "and pointed out a The problem is, we didn’t transfer players to the reserve team, it was just an internal adjustment based on the status, there is no such thing as transfer.”

"Isn't this the language of Junior Brother Sha?" Seeing Shevchenko's performance, Fan Shang has been too busy recently and left it behind. The plan to train players to communicate with the media has once again been put on the agenda.

The next day, the media reports were all congratulating Bordeaux for advancing, but most of the descriptions of yesterday's game were conservative, ugly, despicable, and unbearable to look at.Fan Shang understood, but was a little displeased.I understand because the scene of the whole game yesterday was really boring and strange. I say I am unhappy because Bordeaux scored 4 goals yesterday. How can I return the words conservative and ugly.

After the promotion, Bordeaux got a period of respite. The next UEFA Cup game is next month. For the rest of October, Bordeaux's only task is to continue to lead in the league. As for the French Cup and The French League Cup, one is in November, and the other is Bordeaux's turn until December.Of course, sufficient physical reserves will also be the focus of Bordeaux in the next stage. By December, after all, this kind of double match a week, or even three matches, will become a norm.

Fan Shang has obviously become much more comfortable in dealing with it, "Mr. Fan Shang, the last loss has had a great impact on the team, and some players have even been transferred to the reserve team. This time, you will be promoted this week. What did the Rideau team do?"

Before going to the away game, Fan Shang went to the reserve team and asked about Wiltord's situation. Anselin and Fernandez, who were also driven to the reserve team, were directly ignored by Fan Shang.

Fan Shang doesn't want this kind of game to happen again. He prefers to rely on defensive counterattacks to make a steady 1:0 or 2:0, rather than trying to find some unique moves and always pay attention to the opponent's moves. mood.

The fans had their way too much today, this roller coaster game made them want to die, the dull opening, Vincent's command in the first half, the aggressive attack in the second half, and the calmness in the last few minutes.A one-sided game, but there were ups and downs in the process.

"Conventional tactics? I'm sorry, our team does not have conventional tactics, only tactics aimed at winning. I think as long as we win, no matter what the process is, the result will be gratifying." Vincent replied a bit bluntly. It's almost shameless, but it makes people speechless. Isn't competitive sports itself something that exists for the winners? If it's really for the sake of physical fitness, there are still athletes who train every day, and they don't hesitate to fight until they are half disabled.

Bordeaux finally met a strong opponent in the next league match. The next opponent is Nantes, who is now ranked fourth in the league. Although there is a big gap with Bordeaux, the gap with No.2 Monaco is very small.The current Ligue 14 standings are divided into four parts. The first part is, of course, Bordeaux, which is the best. Bordeaux is ranked second to fifth. There is not much difference in points between them. A game can change the ranking.After that is the sixth to No.[-], and finally the last six teams compete for the four relegation places.

This is the case in the season. As soon as a mountain is overturned, another river will appear immediately. Difficulties and problems will always appear in front of us.

This game was won after all, and Shevchenko was drawn to attend the press conference after the game today with Vincent.This young man, who hadn't even spoken French, wandered away at the press conference, and only when Vincent touched him, he smiled and told the media that the coach was right in French with an Eastern European accent.

Most of Bordeaux's opponents in the previous period were relegation favorites in the fourth part. Nice, Nancy, Caen, and Lille were all in it.In the second to fifth places behind Bordeaux, Bordeaux has not played in any of them this year, Paris, Nantes, Monaco, Lyon.This is also the reason why Bordeaux has won consecutive victories, but the media reaction is not very strong.

After the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Vincent first shook hands with the opponent's coach and had a symbolic conversation.Hug each player off the field afterward and thank them for their work on the field.Of course, he went around the field with the players before, thanking the fans for their support.

This match against Nantes is now very important. At this time, when Bordeaux is in good condition, it is okay to play against a weak team. If the hard bones of the top few in the standings cannot be gnawed, it is estimated that Bordeaux will continue to be underestimated by the media. , and even contempt is possible.

With the reaction from the reserve team, Wiltord has already played a game since he came here. This guy is indeed of a certain level. He really scored two goals in the first game when he kept feeding him the ball. And there is no laziness in training.

When Fan Shang heard this, he didn't feel very good. If the last trend continued, wouldn't he be slapped in the face?Fan Shang decided to do something.After explaining a few words to the coach of the reserve team, and watching the training of the reserve team from afar, he was leaving here.The coach of the reserve team left behind, looking at Fan Shang's leaving back with some helplessness and amused.

Nantes is indeed a strong team in Ligue 94. They have won several league and cup championships in their history, and the most recent one was the year before last. In the 95-2 season, they won the Ligue [-] championship with a [-]-point advantage over No.[-] Lyon, and successfully entered the semi-finals in the next Champions League.Nantes' performance this year is also very good, ranking fourth in the league. The loss in the Toto Cup made them devote all their energy to the league.

Nantes now has an offensive and defensive balance. On offense, they mainly rely on Chad star Ndoram, while the leader on defense is Makelele.For Makelele, Vincent has been coveting it for a long time. Vincent asked about the possibility this summer, but Nantes' asking price is too high, Bordeaux does not have that much financial resources, and Bordeaux is compared with Nantes There is no qualitative difference, so Makelele also lacks interest in Bordeaux.
