Chapter 498 The only goal

It was very lively before the game, but it was very quiet after the game started.

The game itself was not very interesting, it was a completely one-sided game.

Although Burnley worked hard, they scored a goal in the final stage of the game. Unfortunately, Pires scored a free kick before that, widening the gap to three goals. Therefore, the last goal was just a consolation goal.

Blackburn defeated Burnley 3-1 away.

In fact, George was still very surprised by Burnley's performance. This group of young players is quite strong. As long as this lineup is stable, they will have the strength to impact the Premier League in two or three years.

Although they are already strangers, George is still very relieved.

However, after the game, George still had a tense face.

When facing the questions of reporters, he either kept silent or talked about something else. Anyway, as long as it involved Burnley, George always avoided it.

This made these reporters very dissatisfied.

If it wasn't for digging up the things between George and Burnley, who would pay attention to a fifth round of the FA Cup.

Even if you pay attention, in the fifth round of the FA Cup, there are games between Manchester United and Everton, and between Chelsea and Newcastle. Is your game more popular than theirs?

Manchester United and Everton, there are many highlights in the game.

The confrontation between the new and old Scottish coaches Ferguson and Moyes, and Rooney's game against his old club. At the beginning, Rooney shouted "Once a blue, always a blue", expressing his loyalty to Everton. Unfortunately, Rooney turned around and joined Manchester United.

Therefore, many Everton media accused Rooney of being a traitor.

What a good highlight?

There is also Chelsea against Newcastle. Although Newcastle has changed coaches, Souness is the head coach. But now Newcastle's team is still left by Robson.

What is the relationship between Mourinho and Robson?

It is not an exaggeration to say that Robson is Mourinho's mentor. Without Robson's wisdom in identifying heroes, Mourinho would not have become famous so quickly later.

Is the confrontation between them good to watch?

Judging from the game, it must be far better than this one.

These reporters gave up their games and came to Turf Moor to see the conflict between George and Burnley. Now you don't say anything, what should we do? Those reporters kept cursing George in their hearts.

At the end of the fifth round of the Premier League, Blackburn has entered the quarterfinals of the FA Cup.

Manchester United defeated Everton 1-0, while Chelsea lost to Newcastle 0-2.

Although Chelsea lost, no one blamed Chelsea. Because Chelsea is now at the top of the Premier League rankings, and it seems that the advantage is already obvious. In addition, Chelsea has already broken through the Champions League group stage.

The next thing to face is Barcelona, ​​which is beginning to revive and is even hailed as the second generation of the dream.

Therefore, it is understandable that Chelsea gave up the FA Cup.

George was very happy about Chelsea's elimination.

Chelsea is really too strong. Especially their defense, after a season of training, is getting stronger and stronger. It can even be said that George is most afraid of teams like Chelsea now.

George's offense now mainly relies on speed.

Ribery, Kaka, Yang Feng, these people all need space.

But when it comes to the control of space, Mourinho is definitely a master. The opponent George is most reluctant to play is Mourinho's Chelsea. Because their defense is too strong.

Now Chelsea has been eliminated.

This is great news for George.

However, Chelsea has been eliminated. But there are still many strong teams left in the FA Cup quarterfinals. Manchester United, Arsenal, Tottenham, Newcastle are all there. Of course, Blackburn is included.

The FA Cup champion does not look so easy.

…………

After the game with Burnley, George immediately flew to Munich, Germany.

Although George thinks that Blackburn's Champions League this season is very difficult. But it does not mean that George will give up the Champions League. If anyone gives up the Champions League, that's a fool.

As long as the Champions League knockouts can go further, the benefits will be very many.

Entering the Champions League quarterfinals, the money earned is several times that of the FA Cup champion.

Therefore, George is still very cautious.

Ribery, Kaka, Yang Feng, Essien, Klose all played.

Even Alonso, who had played in the last game, was sent up by George. Alonso is an absolutely indispensable player for Blackburn now.

The current head coach of Bayern is Magath.

As for Hitzfeld, who won the Champions League for Bayern, he was fired by Bayern Munich because of the poor performance last season. And Magath, the head coach who has recently become famous in the Bundesliga, was invited.

Magath has really become famous in the Bundesliga in recent years.

Unfortunately, there is no honor to show so far. The honor book is empty.

Magath is a very famous iron-fisted coach in German football.

Not only is Magath iron-fisted, but the teams coached by Magath are all iron-armed. Magath's team has a strong German team style.

This is the case with Bayern Munich now.

George defended tightly at Bayern's home court. Then put a few fast players in front to counterattack. George's goal was simple, just to score a goal away from home. Unfortunately, George overestimated his counterattack ability and underestimated his defensive problems.

In the game against Chelsea, Yang Feng became famous with one goal.

But in terms of ability to fight alone, Yang Feng is good. Unfortunately, there are still big problems with cooperation with the team.

When George first met Yang Feng, he was still willing to cooperate with other players. But since entering the Blackburn youth academy, he has always been the biggest star in the Blackburn youth academy.

Even on loan to Stoke City, he is still Stoke City's biggest star.

In addition, Yang Feng's personality is not so clear. So I have always been a loner. In the youth team, at Stoke City, there was only one friend. That's Ribery.

So I developed the habit of eating alone.

His superb passing ability is still there, but unfortunately he is used to playing alone. He also lacks experience, so he doesn't get along well with the team.

Kaka, on the other hand, has been playing next to Miku and Pires.

At that time, all Kaka wanted to do was attack and have a shot and a pass when he reached the frontcourt. But since Miku was injured, Kaka has to focus on many other things. On the left and right, the cooperation between Ribery and Yang Feng requires Kaka to coordinate.

Blackburn's defensive counterattack is not as good as when Miku and Pires were there.

The attack is less about contact and more about individual combat.

The counterattack is not easy, and the defense has many problems.

The right wing guarded by Maicon became the main attack point. Lescott is also an unsettled factor.

And this instability is something that can be contagious. Lucio was also in a hurry due to mistakes by Lescott and Maicon. Even he started making mistakes.

Bayern's style of play is very impactful.

Seventeen minutes into the game, Blackburn conceded a goal.

Ballack's pass passed the reckless Maicon. Maicon is not very good at positioning, and occasionally he loses his position. Let Ballack catch it in midfield.

Ze Roberto got the ball on the left and passed it to Ma Kai in the penalty area. Ma Kai passed Lescott and scored in one move.

This is just the beginning.

The first goal had nothing to do with Lucio.

But the second goal was Lucio's problem.

Lucio stepped forward to grab the ball, but was passed by Deisler. Then it was passed to Pizarro in front.

The opening Pizarro found was the opening left by Lucio just now.

The gap is too big.

In the past, Campbell was behind to defend Lucio, but unfortunately Lescott does not have this awareness now. After Lucio made the move, there was a large area of ​​space behind him.

Of course Pizarro was not polite at all when faced with this kind of ball.

At the end of the first half, Bayern already led Blackburn 2-0.

George has no other options for the porous defense. After all, George can't ask Lescott to become Campbell all at once, and Maicon can become Sagnol all at once. Not to mention Lescott and Maicon, even in the entire world of football, there are only a few who can compare with Campbell and Sagnol.

George was unwilling to lose to Bayern in such a cowardly manner.

Therefore, after the start of the second half, the attack intensity was increased.

The biggest change is that Alonso stepped forward, leaving Essien to sweep behind. And since they couldn't hold on, Maicon and Riise also frequently provided assists from the wing. George wants a goal, an away goal.

George did score a goal in the second half.

Klose dribbled past Demichelis and scored a goal.

Unfortunately, the increase in attack power comes at the expense of defense. Before Klose scored, Bayern's Mackay had already scored a goal.

Blackburn lost to Bayern Munich 1-3 in the away game. The promotion situation is in jeopardy.

March 10, the second game of the Champions League quarter-finals.

In this game, Blackburn were very cautious at home. It's really because the defense problem is too big. So George put up a three-midfielder formation, and then used two forwards, choosing Pires in the middle. The gameplay has also become simpler.

The ball was not lost.

Unfortunately, because too much emphasis was placed on defense, there was only one goal.

Blackburn won at home. But it was only 1-0, and ultimately lost to Bayern Munich with a total score of 2-3. Knocked out of the Champions League.

The Champions League was eliminated.

Three days later, in the sixth round of the FA Cup, Blackburn met Leicester City of the English Championship.

The Blackburn players vented all their depression about being eliminated from the Champions League in this game. A 5-0 victory, Blackburn entered the FA Cup semi-finals.

Everyone knew it at this point.

With no hope of a league title and being eliminated from the Champions League, Blackburn's only goal now is the FA Cup.
