long live football

How did the two teams become bitter rivals?

Either there are historical grievances, such as Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Or if you are in the same city, you actually compete with me for fans, stadiums, ticket income, government benefits, and local talents?sworn enemy!Such as Manchester United and Manchester City.

Or we will end up fighting for honor—the first time we met, you beat me up; For the third time, I was furious and wanted revenge, but I was beaten?sworn enemy! ! !

In terms of stadium competition alone, the grievances between Real Madrid and Munich 1860 are not deep, but the combination of various factors on and off the field has made the relationship between the two teams a bit delicate.

Especially just a month ago, Real Madrid tried to tie up the three main players of the Lions with 1860 million euros. It's Love" and other sad dramas, but for the fans of [-] Munich, they don't like watching dramas at all, they hate being poached by others.

Although the team's superstars have left a lot, the starlight is a bit dim, but Real Madrid, who came to Bayern's training base to prepare for the game, is as high-profile as ever.

Their training was secretly filmed by reporters, their players were interviewed by the media, and their coach Schuster was surrounded by cameras and microphones.

There are not many teams that have been paid so much attention by the multinational media when they travel to foreign countries, and Real Madrid is one of them.

In quite a few interviews, Schuster mentioned the winter transfer just past with "unintentional intentions": "Some people say that Real Madrid decided to buy Portillo, Ecuador, Zill, Khedira? And saying we don’t really want to buy it, but to mess with Munich 1860? No, of course that’s not true.”

"Real Madrid is sincerely interested in buying Portillo and the others. The offer list to Munich 1860 is not fake! It's just that the offer was rejected in the end, which is deeply regrettable... Yes, we still feel sorry for Er Zier and the others are very interested, they are rare talented players who are suitable for a club like Real Madrid, and I also believe that all players in the world are yearning for the Bernabeu..."

When he saw the latest interview with Schuster published by the "Munich Daily", Karl smiled: This is a scheming.

……

There are often such scenes in European football: Although some clubs are local tyrants, even if they spend hundreds of millions of euros to wink at their favorite players, they will ignore them, but when Real Madrid asks these players When players are recruiting small hands, these players would rather have a discount than rush over.

And when interviewed by the media, these players would say with a happy face: "In fact, I have been a Real Madrid fan since I was a child. In fact, my childhood dream was to play in Real Madrid."

Almost every time a player transfers to Real Madrid, such a scene will be staged, and there are countless examples.

why?

Because Real Madrid does have a fatal attraction to most players in the world.

The best football club in the [-]th century, the richest of the rich, with a glorious history, sufficient exposure, and well-developed club business.

If a player is a world-class star before he transfers to Real Madrid, even if his competitive status has not been improved or even declined, after the Real Madrid club has fully packaged, publicized and created momentum, there is still a high possibility that he will become a world-class star. Leap to become a top star.

Players who don’t want to be famous/make money are not good players. Real Madrid can quickly increase a player’s popularity and worth. Ordinary players go to Real Madrid. The real draw of a club.

Although Munich 1860 rejected Real Madrid's attractive offer of up to [-] million euros, the rejection was at the club level. Who dares to say that Portillo, Ozil, and Khedira have nothing for Real Madrid? Yearning?

No one dared to say that.

Even after these three players were interviewed by reporters and repeatedly expressed their unwillingness to leave the Lions, some fans still didn't believe it: Who knows if you said that to please the head coach?We are not the roundworms in your stomach, who knows if what you said is true or false?

Schuster used psychological tactics aboveboard and was not afraid that the tactics would not work.

If a player is interested in Real Madrid, then disturb a few hearts—since you will come to our Bernabeu next year, in the next two games, you must be afraid of your actions and save some face for your future old club ?

If the players have no interest in Real Madrid, it will also add some suspicion among their coaches and players, so that the Lions can't be united-Auston, do you really know your players?When they have the possibility of transfer, do you still dare to use these players in important games with confidence?

……

Tactics are divided into conspiracies and overt schemes. Schuster uses overshadowed schemes, which directly hits people's weaknesses with dignity.

Generally speaking, the normal response of team coaches is to close training, turn a deaf ear to outside public opinion, comfort their players and then encourage them to win the game.

But Karl isn't going to take the usual route.

He directly called all the players together for a meeting the day before the game, and then said to them: "For tomorrow's game, I only hope that you can understand one truth-football respects the strong, and the giants are all shaking M."

All players: "..."

Shake, shake M?

Boss, did he really say it?

Could it be that the boss has a lot of research on BDS*M?

...that scene is unimaginable.

The players stared blankly at their coach. Some of them couldn't wait to wash their ears to prove that they had just heard hallucinations. Replay it over and over again.

And their boss, after shocking everyone, continued as if nothing had happened: "Eto'o moved to Barcelona and broke with Real Madrid. Every time he went to the Spanish national derby, he scored one goal after another bravely. Real Madrid’s nightmare on the court, and off the court, he kept cursing his old club, but why was Real Madrid so eager to buy back Eto’o from Barcelona? Because the more Eto’o abused Real Madrid on the court, the more Real Madrid obsessed with him. Bigger!"

The players looked thoughtful.

"Don't you guys still understand this? Not only Eto'o, but how did Javier change from being abandoned by Real Madrid to the darling that the Bernabéu can't wait to pursue again? Because he also proved in front of Real Madrid Live on yourself!" Carl nodded to his disciples: "The giants used to have as many talents as they needed, and as many top stars as they wanted, so they will inevitably not cherish things that are easy to get. On the contrary, Only those who have beaten them painfully and made them hate them unforgettable are the ones they really care about..."

Being set as a role model by the boss, Portillo is a bit shy and proud. Although he has calmed down now and doesn't care whether Real Madrid still cares about him, but because of his experience, he has great respect for the boss. I empathize with what I said, and I know how much influence these words will have on other teammates.

Some people always think that sending a good signal to a wealthy family can finally successfully join a wealthy family, but they don't know that an evil signal is also a shortcut, and if they can perform well in front of a powerful opponent, even if there is no invitation from this wealthy family, they will still be able to join the wealthy family. Sooner or later, the next giant will appear.

"Longing for heights is a human instinct, so I will not force you to devote your whole life to 1860 Munich. If you don't want to leave, you must win for the team. My expectations for you are not just the top eight of the Champions League. It's so simple! If you choose to leave in the future, you should fight for victory now! Beat Real Madrid to the ground, until you are the only king standing, and your shadow will be deeply imprinted in their hearts, and they will never forget Lose!"

Karl doesn't want to test his players, and he doesn't have to test his players. He just needs to set a common goal for everyone, and no matter what the players think, they will work hard to achieve it.

And now, looking into the eyes full of vitality and eagerness in front of him, Carl knows that he has succeeded.

……

In the first round of the 2007-08 UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, Real Madrid came prepared, while 1860 Munich responded calmly.

At night, the Allianz Arena is brightly lit and full of people.

Carl and Schuster, who appeared at the entrance of the passage, met, and the two shook hands in a friendly manner.

Schuster glanced at the Lions players in the warm-up area who were engrossed in sports, and muttered in confusion: "Your team atmosphere is very tacit and united, which is so rare, as if they have never been disturbed at all..."

"Interference is always there." Carl meant something: "But there is always a way for them to temporarily put aside distracting thoughts and work towards the same goal."

"How did you do it?" Schuster asked directly.

"The tiger fights with the pack of wolves. It uses powerful force to lure a few young wolves to do things for them. The young wolves may be temporarily confused, but when they understand that if they kill the tiger together with the pack of wolves, they will gain the title of 'King of Beasts'." When they can get higher benefits, the pups will still stand on the same side as their own kind."

Schuster showed a embarrassed expression.

Carl smiled at the other party, turned and walked back to the coach's bench.

……

The reason why Capello was fired by the current chairman of Real Madrid is because he did not take advantage of the high-priced lineup of the Galacticos to play beautiful offensive football. to the gorgeous Real Madrid".

After dismissing Capello, Calderon re-selected Schuster, and warned him at the beginning of the latter's tenure: "Not only must win the game, but also win beautifully."

So whether it is home or away, Real Madrid led by Schuster must be an offensive team.

At the beginning of the game, Real Madrid was aggressive, but 1860 Munich played uncharacteristically, playing cautiously and conservatively at their own home court, which surprised the onlookers.

Real Madrid fans were elated: "Our Galaxy Battleship is indeed the greatest team in the world! Look at 1860 Munich, even in their own home court, they are so afraid of us!"

In the 9th minute, Robben dribbled the ball past Beckham and broke through to the Lions half, then cut in from the right and knocked the ball back. Raul got the ball from the front of the penalty area and took a long shot. The football was wiped by Koch. A large piece of turf flew and hit Guti's calf. Guti seized the opportunity to stretch his foot, but the angle was wrong, the football brushed the post and flew out of the baseline.

However, the experience of approaching the 1860 goal this time shocked many Real Madrid players.

——It seems that it is not difficult to find shooting opportunities in front of the 1860 goal. If we work harder, will we be able to dominate the game soon and bring back a big victory from the away game?

Thinking about it this way, the Real Madrid players became more active on the field. In a certain moment, even two defensive players ran near the center circle.

The demeanor of Real Madrid's players went from aggressive to eager to attack more.

Such a change naturally did not escape the eyes of coach Schuster.

Schuster could see that the team's temperament was becoming impatient, but when he made a decision, he still hesitated.

Is it to maintain the previous normal rhythm, fight with Munich 1860 with real knives and real guns, and then wait for luck to favor which side?

Or let the players on the field play with passion, maybe a star suddenly has a flash of inspiration and changes the game?

In this kind of home and away two-round knockout match, away goals are really important. If they score an away goal, Real Madrid will hold one-eighth of the initiative in the Champions League.

So gritted his teeth, Schuster still didn't care about the "free play" of the stars on the court.

At the same time, he is also looking forward to: scoring a goal, must score a goal...

In the match between the Spanish team and the German team, the fans of the two countries naturally have their own positions, and they will cheer for their own teams in the game.

However, fans in other countries, if they do not have a strong sense of substitution and still watch the live broadcast of the game, either to enjoy a high level of football competition, or for other reasons.

British Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray once broke the news on Twitter that since Beckham and Irving moved to Munich 1860, plus Karl Oston, the big killer, the Bundesliga broadcast ratings in England It goes up almost every month. When there are important events in 1860, they can even fight some unpopular Premier League games.

Unlike the commentators on China National Television who are forced to stand objectively and impartially, many celebrities in Europe rely on their personalities to gain positions. When they comment on the game, they often make people laugh with witty remarks, which instead attract fans. For example Speaking of Andy Gray, he often has no scruples when explaining. From Irving's latest Twitter update, to Beckham's new hairstyle, and even Carl's expressions and movements, he often analyzes and comments.

If we want to talk about the hottest off-court lace in British football recently, it is undoubtedly the cross-border cooperation between the fashion industry and the football industry. After Tom Ford made a formal dress for the Munich 1860 team and shot a blockbuster, which caused a sensation in the entire European football world. , other luxury brands also saw business opportunities and sought cooperation. For example, within this month, the well-known Italian brand Armani approached Chelsea, planning to design an exclusive formal suit for the Blues.

"Football, a pure man's sport that sweats, was generally considered by people to be very ordinary and popular. It has nothing to do with fashion. But since Beckham was born, he has successively endorsed several world-renowned fashion brands. It aroused a huge response from the public and achieved a win-win situation for businesses and players, and then the cooperation between football players and top brands began to increase. It can be said that Beckham is a watershed in the player's personal business development. He pioneered Many new fields that players cannot create, such as cooperation with fashion brands, endorsement of men's grooming centers, becoming a country's image ambassador, etc... Even if future generations of players can get more advertising revenue than Beckham through endorsements, It is also impossible to surpass him in historical influence."

"Auston, on the other hand, is another kind of milestone figure—in the golden dollar football era, he single-handedly directed the miraculous drama of a grassroots counterattack into a local tyrant; as a behind-the-scenes figure, he received more media attention than the most famous under his command There are more stars; never before have so many fans brainstormed about what a manager wears, and even Beckham didn't lead the fashion trend, but Auston did; he even shrouded his halo over the entire team The team, which fashion brands are seeking cooperation with 1860 Munich because of Auston himself? Aston Martin, Tom Ford, Burberry... It is said that Hugo was the one who robbed Auston with Tom Ford Bosch, the best fashion brand in Germany..."

"Even Real Madrid, a recognized aristocratic club, has never attracted the favor of the entire fashion world like Auston. Although a club and a football coach cannot be compared together, Auston is indeed such an extremely talented person. A coach with personal charm, he can even bring out a high-end atmosphere in the chaotic football field-a coach like Austin, I don’t know if there will be a second coach in world football in the future, just Like I don't know if there will be a second Beckham, it's lucky for the 1860 Munich fans that these two charismatic people are in the same team. They're all English."

Hearing this, many German fans who are watching Sky Sports in the UK laughed: "English? Ha ha."

Just when some German fans were about to dial the Sky Sports hotline to protest, Andy Gray's voice suddenly stretched out: "GOOOOAL——GOOOOOOOOOOOAL!"

The fans were taken aback: Did Real Madrid score?

The eyes quickly moved to the TV - the goal was 1860 Munich!

……

The goal just now is being played back on the big screen at the Allianz Arena:

Real Madrid once again pushed the attack into the Munich 1860 half, and this time their entire team was involved, with the defensive players pressing near the midfield and several forwards going deep into the front of the Lions' penalty area.

In the 17th minute, Robben made a cross from the right, and Raul broke forward after receiving the ball. Dante moved too much when defending Raul and received a yellow card.

This yellow card stimulated the nerves of the Real Madrid players and made them even more excited.

Because they feel that with this yellow card on their backs, the 1860 defenders will definitely not defend them too hard, so Real Madrid is getting closer and closer to the goal of scoring goals in the away game.

In order not to waste opportunities and pose a real threat to the goal guarded by Koch, Raul has been trying to move closer to the penalty area.

Because there were too many players from the two teams in the 1860 half at this time, and Ruud van Nistelrooy, the "king of the small penalty area", even created a greater threat on the other side of the field, so Raul was not worried about being the only focus.

Following Guti's through kick, Raul started at the same time. The tactic he had planned for himself was to cooperate with his teammates tacitly, implement the anti-offside tactic and move forward again after getting the football, forming a single-handed fight!

Guti's pass was so beautiful that even the German commentator was chanting: "Real Madrid's chance -"

But just as Raul was about to get the football, a person suddenly appeared between him and Guti.

Thiago Silva.

Under Raul's unbelievable gaze, this calm, low-key Brazilian player stretched his legs to block Guti's pass!

As if he could read minds, he understood Raul's overall plan, and intercepted the fatal pass that appeared in this chaotic half-court!

"Thiago Silva! Thank goodness for a player who judges the situation with a calm eye in the chaotic situation swarming in front of the 1860 goal in Munich! How reliable this Brazilian lad is!"

The Allianz Arena boiled over as Lions fans chanted Thiago Silva's name and cheered him on.

The Chinese fans who are thousands of miles away are even more trouble-free, shouting directly: "Sister-in-law is great! Sister-in-law is doing beautifully!"

Thiago is a very common name in the Latin language family, similar to John David in British and American culture, and Silva is also a very common surname. European football has found countless players with the same name or surname, so in order to distinguish these South American players, some Chinese fans were ingenious and used the first letter of Tiago Silva's first name and surname to give him the nickname "" "Sister-in-law", because it is very unique and innovative, it slowly became popular among Chinese fans.

The younger sister-in-law, who had just made contributions to the team, ignored the cheers of the fans at all. He put all his body and mind into the game. After blocking Guti's pass, he quickly turned around and adjusted his posture. A long pass with the foot sent the ball to the midfield!

The counterattack horn of Munich 1860, starting from the sister-in-law, sounded!

The development of the game that followed was even more lightning and dramatic.

Munich 1860's center and front courts seemed to have made an appointment before, and they suddenly turned and ran forward.

In their running positions, there is a kind of law faintly hidden, neither too close nor too far away from each other, as if there is a tacit connection between everyone.

This kind of posture where the opponent was still enduring their mad attack one second, and then aggressively pressed forward the next second made the Real Madrid players feel a little confused.

Especially Heinze and Torres, the two Real Madrid defenders, their positions are not too far from the center circle at the moment. Munich 1860's sudden counterattack caught them by surprise until Ozil's figure swayed across the sea After Inze, Heinze ran towards the penalty area as if he had heard thunder and suddenly ran towards the penalty area-to let the opponent player threaten the goal first, and he, as a defender, has failed his duty!

Like Heinze, he was not the only one who reacted. The Real Madrid players were too excited to attack before, causing many defensive players to not stay in the defensive position they should be when the Lions suddenly broke out. After starting a fierce counterattack, they immediately ran back in a panic, causing Real Madrid to look a little chaotic in the half-court.

Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas was collectively cheated by this group of "defense team" teammates.

Even though he is one of the best goalkeepers in the world, he still looks weak when facing threats from all directions in front of the goal.

For example, now, both Portillo and Owen are in a position that can pose a threat to Real Madrid's goal. Casillas can't guess who is the one who completed the last shot.

Real Madrid defender Ramos finally arrived in time and blocked Owen in front of him.

Owen suddenly raised his foot and gently pushed the football forward.

Is it Owen?He's going to shoot the ball in from under Ramos?

No!It's Portillo!

Owen's ball did not go straight ahead, but passed Ramos' body and passed to the front left!

Then, under the background of the silent atmosphere of the entire stadium, Portillo suddenly accelerated and rushed out. After passing Heinze, who was weak in defense, he raised his foot and vigorously pumped the ball towards the goal!

Casillas makes a flying save!

But the football is so fast, it flies into the goal in the blink of an eye!

"After Real Madrid's offensive wave, 1860 Munich justified their name with a lightning-fast counterattack! 1:0! They took the lead at home!"

"The hero of the goal is Portillo!"

"Respectable and lovely Spaniard, he once again ruthlessly slaughtered the old club's goal!"

Madrid fans gathered in the bar, drinking beer and pumping their fists excitedly a few minutes ago: "Go! Real Madrid! Shoot through the German goal!"

The sudden reversal of the situation left several drunken alcoholics stunned, their mouths opened wide, and the beer that hadn't had time to swallow it slowly mixed with saliva and flowed out from the corners of their mouths.

After a long while, they raised the backs of their hands and wiped the corners of their mouths casually, cursing muffledly, "Fuck!"

……

Schuster's face sank like water.

He couldn't help but glanced at Karl, thinking to himself: Is the deliberately low-key performance after the opening of Munich 1860 a pre-prepared tactic?Orston, did he calculate that taking a step back after the start of the game will cause Raul and the others to get carried away, and then have a chance to take advantage of it?

However, the coach of the Lions always looked expressionless, so that Schuster couldn't see the slightest clue.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the stadium again.

Countless fans screamed excitedly in the stands: "Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

This strange sound made everyone outside the arena couldn't help turning their eyes to the inside of the arena.

Then they saw the hero who just scored, the Spanish star Portillo lifted his jersey to reveal the T-shirt underneath, and then ran around the sidelines.

On his pure white T-shirt, there is a striking sentence written in black marker: I love Munich, I love the boss.

"Oh oh oh!" Gaynor also yelled strangely: "Portillo is showing his loyalty!"

"Portillo should be responding to the offer from Real Madrid during the previous winter break and Schuster's remarks before the game, saying that he himself does not want to transfer to Real Madrid. It's very loyal."

Multiple cameras in the Allianz Arena tracked Portillo's figure throughout the entire process. Portillo is not a particularly flamboyant person, even though he planned to lift his jersey and brighten his T-shirt two days ago Well, he was a little low-key when he started this matter-but after running a small half circle and letting several cameras capture what was written on his chest, he began to avoid the camera again.

Before the kick-off in the middle circle again, a camera finally captured a close-up of Portillo with his head half down: a flushed face.

British commentator Andy Gray hugged his stomach and laughed: "It is said that Javier Portillo is a very thin-skinned player. Today I finally saw it!"

……

I love Munich and I love the boss.

The former may refer to the team of Munich 1860 or the city of Munich, but the latter definitely points to the fact that Karl Oston has not escaped.

The media are very mean. Not only are they chasing after Portillo, but they can't wait to see what Oston's reaction will be when the player shows his loyalty.

Will you be moved to cry?

...that sentence above was a joke.

In fact, it would be very precious to the media if Auston’s gaffe can be photographed. They can add keywords to the photo in the report the next day: “Auston was moved to tears, The corners of his mouth trembled, his eyes were flushed, and there was an unconcealable smile on Oston's face, his facial features were almost bursting with laughter, and there was water in his eyes."

But in fact, the media didn't capture anything.

Because Oston suddenly reached out and pulled the scarf around his neck when Portillo showed off his T-shirt, will!Mouth!and!Down!bar!Complete!cover!live!up!

The cameras of the reporters could only capture the upper half of the Lions coach's face, which had not changed. As for the part below the nose, they couldn't see it at all!

They couldn't tell even if Auston himself was crying in the scarf!

The "adidas" LOGO on the black cashmere scarf is dazzling.

Various media took turns complaining about the German Adidas company countless times.

Gaynor spit out faintly: "As long as Oston wears this scarf and shows up at the side of the court every time the team plays in winter, Adidas will give him a sponsorship fee of 50 euros a year... No , it has risen to 80 euros from this year..."

……

Ozil and Khedira touched their jerseys at the same time, and then looked at each other.

The three of them didn't feel it when they wrote on the jersey, but now after watching Portillo show off the T-shirt from the perspective of a bystander, they feel... so gay.

But being able to write the word "love" is also a last resort-who let the boss's birthday have passed?If the boss's birthday is not last month but this month, then they can also show their loyalty by writing happy birthday.

Although a little shy, but if given the chance, Ozil and Khedira will also reveal the secrets under their jerseys. If you show your loyalty, this loyalty will change from being very basic to being upright and awe-inspiring all of a sudden.
