I Want to Be the King of Football

When Su Dong saw Maicon again, the Brazilian right-back had lost his former high spirits, and was replaced by a heavy twilight, obviously being hit hard by Gareth Bale.

In fact, when it comes to age, Maicon is not yet 30 years old. He should have been in his prime. It is a pity that he is not only young, but also extremely fast.

Sometimes, what fans see is a fiasco, or a poor performance of a certain player, but many things behind it are often not determined by the player, or the player's performance is not the decisive factor.

It's like Maicon was beaten by Gareth Bale, and behind it was actually the entire Inter Milan, from the management to the coaching staff to the players' failures.

Why do you say that?

First of all, Inter Milan is a rapid decline after playing a peak season, not only Maicon, Sneijder, Diego Milito and Eto'o, etc., but also a group of about 30 years old in the team the veteran.

Anyone who knows a little about the ball knows that the most reasonable configuration of a team is the old, middle-aged and young, with too many veterans, and the problem is very big.

Inter Milan has basically established a lineup with veterans as the core since Moratti renewed contracts with Sneijder and others on a large scale. The feelings are taken care of, but the competitiveness of the team has been lost, and no one can stop the veterans. The decline after the peak.

There is also a tactical level.

Mancini used to take a defensive tactic, which is no problem for a team with too many veterans.

I squatted in the pit, organized the defense, let you come up to attack, and I would hit you to counterattack. Inter Milan achieved good results last season by relying on this style of play, but now the coach has changed from Mancini to Betty. Nites, the problem has changed.

From Valencia to Liverpool to Inter Milan, Benitez's tactics are basically in the same line, that is, 4231 high pressing and pressing, this set of tactical play has helped him achieve success, and it is also the reason why Inter Milan chose him.

Why?

Because Inter Milan is too aging, if they continue to defend, they will not be able to defend, but if they attack, they will advance too slowly and will not be able to open the situation. If they continue to adopt Mancini's squatting tactics, the defense may be better, but When the offense can't be opened, the veterans can't bear it, and it will be a matter of time to be scored.

The rivals AC Milan in the same city also encountered the same problem. Ancelotti adopted two tactics, one was Pirlo's passing, and the other was Kaka, so that's why Kaka was like this in AC Milan. important.

But Inter Milan does not have Pirlo, nor Kaka, only Sneijder.

So, Benitez came to Inter Milan with his high pressing and pressing.

The concept is also very sensible. Since I can't squat and can't advance in the attack, that's fine, I'll just push the defense line out, shorten the advancing distance when switching from defense to attack, and play the role of Sneijder. This is okay, right?

Is this set useful?

It's actually really useful.

Needless to say, in Serie A, Benitez's performance in the early stage of coaching is still good. Although the goals are a little less, there is no lack of records such as a four-to-zero victory over Barry, and his performance is relatively stable.

In the Champions League group stage, it was not unacceptable to draw 2-2 away with Twente in the Netherlands in the first round.

Even in the opening game against Tottenham, Inter were leading 4-0 in the first half.

That is to say, as of the end of the first half of the third round of the Champions League group match at home against Tottenham Hotspur, Benitez's tactics have achieved great success. It cannot be said that they are invincible or invincible. Inter Milan showed decent competitiveness, giving the veterans a new lease of life.

But the problem is that the unfortunate Benitez, the unfortunate Inter Milan, just got better, and unfortunately ran into Redknapp and his Tottenham Hotspur.

Redknapp was a sly old fox,

Even in the Premier League, many people compare him to Ferguson.

Tottenham defended well and had two sharp knives on the counter-attack, Gareth Bale and Aaron Lennon.

One thing that both players have in common is speed, especially Gareth Bale.

After Redknapp's 0-4 defeat in the first half, there was really no way to lose. At the same time, he also saw through the tactical point of Benitez, that is, when your lineup is old, before the overall formation Pressure, once the midfield and frontcourt cannot put enough pressure on the opponent and are directly beaten by the opponent, sharp knives like Gareth Barry and Aaron Lennon will become very deadly.

As a result, Tottenham Hotspur decisively changed its tactical style of play in the second half.

In the second round of the two sides, Tottenham Hotspur continued to adopt this style of play, and Inter Milan returned with a disastrous away defeat.

At this point, everyone knows that Inter Milan is the dead end.

Benitez's tactical style of play has also been thoroughly seen through. Maicon was completely defeated in the game against Gareth Bale, and his reputation was discredited.

And if you look at it from start to finish, is it really just a player problem?

In professional football, food is the original sin, and if you lose, you have to admit it.

But from a neutral and objective point of view, it was not Maicon who was standing on the right back of Inter Milan at that time, and any right back in the world was replaced by Gareth Bale. It was even worse.

Fate is sometimes like this, Maicon has become such a tragic character.

...

After receiving the award for the best team of the year, there was an important link on the scene, that is, eleven players stood in two rows, and the media reporters on the scene took pictures.

Su Dong is the tallest, standing on the far left in the back row. This is also his usual habit. He doesn't like standing in the C position.

Beside him is Maicon.

The Brazilian right-back stood between Sudong and Lucio, wearing a neat suit, but looking very lonely and depressed.

Messi, Ronnie and others in the front row all squatted down. Su Dong leaned towards Maicon, holding the trophy in one hand and Maicon's shoulder in the other, posing a smiling face towards the front camera.

Maicon was very surprised and looked at Su Dong in disbelief.

Once upon a time, he was the best right-back in the world, especially after the World Cup in South Africa, his momentum was no different.

At that time, he had many, many friends and many, many confidants, but as he was blown up by Gareth Bale, as his reputation plummeted, and as his position as the world's number one right-back was not guaranteed, what about him? After the rumors of his fall from the peak appeared, these people gradually moved away from him.

Even many teammates of the original national team and club began to ignore him.

At this time, Su Dong took the initiative to take his hand, which made him feel a burst of warmth.

Thank you. Maicon said softly in a voice that only Su Dong could hear clearly.

Su Dong turned his head and grinned at him.

Don't admit defeat! As long as you don't admit defeat, it can never beat you!

Maicon's eyes were slightly red, and he nodded, staring straight ahead.

After the team of the year was awarded, the Fair Play Award was awarded to the Haiti U17 Women's Football Team.

Their head coach was killed in the earthquake, but these little girls still participated in the World Youth Championship.

The best women's coach went to Ned, and the best men's coach went to Heynckes of Bayern.

In fact, this is still somewhat controversial, but the World Cup is won every four years. Like Bayern last season, the legend of successfully defending the triple crown is unique in football history.

Heynckes deserves this honor.

It is worth mentioning that in his acceptance speech, Heynckes also mentioned Su Dong.

The FIFA President's Award was awarded to the Nobel Peace Prize winner, former South African archbishop Tutu, because of his active support of the World Cup in South Africa and his commitment to promoting the promotion of football.

The Puskas Award, the best goal of the year, was still awarded to Su Dong.

Since the establishment of this award in 2009, Su Dong has won the Puskas Award for two consecutive years.

He can contribute a number of wonderful goals to world football every year. Some people even say that every goal of Su Dong is classic and wonderful. If you switch to other players, they can be loaded into his career. In the top ten football highlights, the media and fans have watched too much, and they are all numb, because goals should be like this.

However, because of this, the media and fans have stricter requirements for Su Dong.

Then came the Miss World Football, and the winner was Marta from Brazil.

This is the fifth time that a Brazilian female football star has been elected as Miss World Soccer, and she can be called a legendary superstar in the women's football world.

When it was the turn of the finale award, the FIFA Ballon d'Or, the lineup of presenters was also the most important.

Not only were FIFA President Blatter present, Maurinier, CEO of French Football Magazine, Heynckes, who had just won the Men's Football Coach of the Year, and UEFA President Platini , the four appeared on the podium at the same time.

Such a weight is undoubtedly unprecedented, and it can also be seen that FIFA attaches great importance to the first FIFA Ballon d'Or.

When they saw Heynckes as one of the presenters, everyone already knew the answer, and they all applauded immediately, and the entire Zurich Opera House burst into deafening applause.

Heynckes holds the trophy of the inaugural FIFA Ballon d'Or, while Maurigner opens the envelope containing the winner's name and finally takes out a golden paper card with the inaugural FIFA Ballon d'Or. The name of the winner of the United Ballon d'Or.

Su Dong!!!!

When Maurinier shouted the name vigorously, the audience burst into thunderous applause again.

Su Dong stood up from his seat, turned around and hugged his friends around him.

Ronnie, Messi, Xavi and Iniesta also sent their congratulations one after another.

Before this moment, everyone had already guessed that Su Dong was the number one favorite. Whether it was in Bayern or Manchester City, his performance was impeccable.

Both Xavi and Iniesta deserve a Ballon d'Or, but unfortunately, their rival is Su Dong!
