Football's No. 1 Prodigal Son

The new season is coming.

This Club World Cup is the first event to combine the Club World Cup with the Toyota Cup, and the participating teams are the champion clubs of the six continents.

They are the European Champions Cup champion Manchester City, the South American Libertadores champion Sao Paulo, the CONCACAF Champions Cup champion Saprissa, the AFC Champions League champion Al Ittihad, the Oceania Champions Cup champion Sydney FC, and the African Champions Cup champion Cairo National.

Speaking of the name of the Club World Cup, it is quite intimidating, but in fact, the European champion club only needs to play two games.

After Manchester City arrived in Yokohama, their semi-final opponent has also been announced, that is, the Costa Rican Saprissa Club.

As the champions of Central and North America, their strength is actually far behind Manchester City, and they are not even as good as the Premier League relegation team.

Manchester City casually arranged a substitute lineup and easily defeated the opponent 3-0.

Yang Luo's main principle is to let all the registered players play, so Weaver was the starting goalkeeper in this game.

This made Weaver very grateful to Yang Luo.

He knew that with his level, it would be difficult for him to have the opportunity to play in the Club World Cup in the future, and it would be even more difficult to get a gold medal in the Club World Cup.

After the game, he deliberately found Yang Luo: "Boss, thank you for giving me the opportunity to stand on this stage."

Yang Luo winked: "Then you can consider renewing the contract, there will be more such opportunities in the future."

Weaver was stunned and smiled: "Boss, don't tempt me, otherwise I will be tempted."

Yang Luo patted his shoulder: "I hope you change your mind. If you decide to stay, tell me in advance."

Weaver couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.

After they defeated Saprissa, the semi-final on the other side also ended.

Brazil's Sao Paulo Club defeated Cairo National and became Manchester City's final opponent.

Sao Paulo is Kaka's home team, so this game is of great significance to him.

Yang Luo also deliberately put him in the starting lineup when arranging the troops.

And Ronaldo was also very generous and readily accepted his substitute position.

Yang Luo was a little surprised. Ronaldo did treat Kaka differently...

If he wanted to change someone else, Ronaldo would have to get angry.

So Yang Luo stared at Kaka and Ronaldo in an ambiguous way, with a smile on his face.

Kaka was frightened by his look: "Boss, what are you doing?"

Yang Luo smiled: "Nothing, I just feel that the relationship between our players is very good, I am very relieved."

Ronaldinho came over and said: "Boss, based on my understanding of you, you must be thinking of some obscene ideas in your mind."

Yang Luo raised his eyebrows: "You are so talkative, just let you be a substitute!"

Ronaldinho smiled awkwardly: "You have already arranged it, it will be troublesome to change it..."

Although he now has differences with the club on the renewal of the contract, he seems to be unaffected. He is still cheerful every day, like a happy little idiot.

Yang Luo also admires his mentality very much, as if nothing in the world can make him sad.

And this kind of character has made him successful and will also destroy him.

But this is him, a unique elf in the history of football.

In this game, Yang Luo arranged all the main lineups.

Cech, Maicon, Uifalusi, Distin, Evra, Xabi Alonso, Essien, Kaka, Robben, Ronaldinho and Torres.

The starting lineup of Sao Paulo is goalkeeper Ceni, defenders Cicinho, Santos, Ed Carlos, Lugano, midfielders Mineiro, Jesús, Danilo, Junior, forwards Amoruso, Aloisio.

There are also many famous players here. Ceni is the goalkeeper goalkeeper record holder, Cicinho is the rumored object of Real Madrid, Lugano is the later captain of the Uruguayan national team, and Amoruso is also a figure who won the Golden Boot in Dortmund.

Yang Luo remembered that in the original history, this Sao Paulo team beat Liverpool in the Club World Cup, so they were not a weak team.

So before the game, he repeatedly told the players not to underestimate the enemy.

After the start of the game, Sao Paulo was very pragmatic in setting up a defensive formation.

They also knew that they were weaker than their opponents, so defensive counterattack was the wisest choice.

This also made Manchester City very uncomfortable in the first 20 minutes.

However, after 20 minutes, Manchester City gradually found the rhythm and began to occupy an absolute advantage on the field.

In the 27th minute, Evra intercepted the ball on the left.

, passed the ball directly to Ronaldinho.

After Ronaldinho got the ball, he dodged Cicinho's tackle and passed the ball to Kaka.

Kaka took the ball and took it, after shaking off Hesu's defense, he adjusted his steps and chose to shoot directly!

The football flew straight out and headed straight for the upper left corner of the goal!

Cheney jumped up and tried his best to reach the ball, but it was still a little short!

One to zero, Manchester City took the lead!

After scoring the goal, Kaka did not choose to celebrate. After all, this is his home team, and it was Cheney, the big brother of his team, who picked up the ball from the net.

He gestured to the players of Sao Paulo, and then returned to his own half.

Although there was no celebration for this ball, the score was a real one to zero.

After this goal, Sao Paulo had to attack, which gave Manchester City more space.

In the 41st minute, Xabi Alonso intercepted the ball in the backcourt. He looked up and threw the ball directly to the frontcourt.

Robben got the ball on the right. He dribbled the ball a few steps inside and suddenly made a small straight pass. Torres came diagonally and got the ball.

After Torres took a few steps towards the baseline, he chose to pass the ball directly. Kaka rushed over and pushed the ball directly!

The ball hit the net again.

2-0, Manchester City's advantage further expanded.

It can be said that Manchester City has basically locked the victory.

During the halftime break, Yang Luo replaced Ronaldinho with Ronaldo.

In this way, all the players on the 23-man roster have played.

Yang Luo's main goal is to make everyone equally treated.

In the second half of the game, although Sao Paulo tried very hard, the gap in strength still prevented them from getting any good chances to score.

On the contrary, it was Manchester City that locked the score at 3-0 in the 83rd minute of the game, with Ronaldo cutting in from the left and shooting low.

It can be said that Manchester City played relatively easily after 20 minutes of the game, and Kaka's long shot became the key to breaking the game.

In this game, Kaka also scored twice, showing his strength in front of his old club.

With the referee's whistle, the game ended, and the score was finally fixed at 3-0. Manchester City won the 2005 Club World Cup!

And Manchester City has become a veritable world champion!
