4:0!

The dark horse slaughtered Lazio at home!

This is the front page headlines of all the media after the first round of the UEFA Cup semi-finals. No one expected that in this game that was originally considered to be one-sided, the result really turned out to be one-sided. , but the side that fell was not, but Lazio, who had high hopes of winning the championship.

Throughout the game, Lazio's performance can only be described by the word tragedy. The players' performance on the field is not without effort, but they have never been able to grasp the initiative of the game.

After the game, many Italian commentators said that the biggest highlight of the game was that they dominated the midfield.

When Redondo was there, his scheduling in the backcourt, as well as his two fatal passes that ripped apart Lazio's defense, made the situation on the field firmly in control. Entering halftime at 2:0, Redon worked hard. Must not be.

But in the second half, Mourinho replaced the injured Redondo with the Italian teenager Daniel De Rossi. After the latter came on, he played three midfielders with Essien and Yaya Toure. Such a configuration It also often occurs that three midfielders with excellent defensive ability join forces to completely curb Lazio's offense. Coupled with two goals behind, the morale of Lazio players is low. On the other hand, it is quite a bit of cutting grass. keep.

And they also got the rewards they deserved, a 4-0 victory, and one has to admit that this team does have the strength to win the championship, especially when Junior Juninho and Kaka come back, they The strength will be even higher.

For Lazio's fiasco, the media generally blamed Stam, who made frequent mistakes, believing that he was affected by the pre-match transfer turmoil. After the game, the outside world immediately revealed that Stam was indeed There is news about leaving Lazio, but the transfer objects are not, but Juventus and AC Milan.

Mancini's lack of contingency measures after the team fell behind is also considered a key factor in Lazio's fiasco. If he can be more decisive in falling behind 1-0, even at half-time, replace the underperforming Cora. Di, if you replace a midfielder and strengthen the control of the midfield, maybe this will not be a fiasco, maybe you can get a goal back.

Moreover, with Lazio's ability, returning to the home court and playing a 3-0 is not a problem at all.

But it was because of Mancini's hesitation that his team suffered a bloody massacre in Manchester.

On the other hand, Mourinho, whether it was at the start or after taking the lead, he made every substitution in an orderly manner, including replacing Redondo, replacing Hleb, etc. All the substitutions were very targeted. This means that the game has always been under the control of the Portuguese.

Tactics determine the outcome of this game, and it deserves a victory!

Even the unconvinced Italian media have to admit this. They can only grit their teeth and say that when they return to Italy, Mancini's team is bound to retaliate. I believe that Lazio, who is in the last stand, will definitely give a fatal blow.

But actually?

……………… When the referee blew the second round of the UEFA Cup semi-finals, the Olympic Stadium was silent, and even the most loyal Lazio fans could not make any sound.

Even though they did their best to cheer for their beloved team throughout the game, and Lazio really showed hard work and hard work in this game, Mancini even played four strikers and played an impressive game. Crazy 244 tactics, but in the end, he still failed to bring his team a victory.

The number on the red scoreboard at the Olympic Stadium has never changed. It was 0:0 before 90 minutes, and it was still 0:0 after 90 minutes!

If it is placed in La Liga, all fans will definitely scoff at this game, which is an extremely dull game.

Many experts also questioned the tactics of this game, thinking that Mourinho came to Rome with a 0-0 mind, and he did not want to win a victory at all.

In particular, the roster he gave before the game proves this. Who would have thought that he did not bring Kaka to Rome?

Among them, the commentators of Italy's live TV station were even more appalling. They ridiculed the dead-on tactics at halftime, especially the tactics of Mourinho's retreat.

"Oh, I think the best performers in the first half were the two Yaya Toures, who were very good at interceptions in midfield."

"Two Yaya Toure, but I only saw one on the list. You must have read it wrong, right?"

"Am I wrong?" The commentator exaggeratedly pointed to the replay of the wonderful scene that just happened to be switched. Drogba made a beautiful defensive steal in the midfield, "Look, isn't that Yaya Toure? Look at his defense. Technology, how skilled, how smart, he is really strong to the extreme."

"Uh...that's Drogba!"

"Drogba? Is it? Did I read it wrong? Isn't he playing as a striker? How did he return to the defensive midfield position?"

"Look at his number, it's 11, not Yaya Toure's 19!"

"Oh, I was startled, I was going to call the referee on duty and tell them that they used the clone technique on their players, but I'm definitely right, Drogba shouldn't Going to play as a striker, he should play as a midfielder, you see how good he is when he plays as a midfielder!"

... In addition to this, almost the entire Italian media accused of being conservative after the game, believing that this team had no intention of winning at the Olympic Stadium from the beginning, and they came to the stadium with a dead-end mentality.

The English media countered the accusations of the Italian media, believing that the Italian style of play is the most conservative. On the other hand, on the premise of a 4-0 victory at home, the attacking tactics on the road will not be burnt out. It's a big step backwards in football tactics.

Many media believe that the Italian media's rendering is because their fourth league team was eliminated from the UEFA Cup by a League One team, so they were upset.

The Italian media is fighting back again. I hope the English media will see the facts clearly. The UEFA Cup has already become a tasteless rib. The real focus is on the European Champions Cup. But look at the Champions Cup semi-finals. The team is Real Madrid from Spain.

Where is the England team?

The Italian media used the Champions Cup to ridicule the English media, arguing that it was because the Serie A team did not pay attention to the UEFA Cup that it led to the dark horses such as the Celtic team in Scotland entering the final.

And this UEFA Cup final is also known as the most unconvincing final in history. No matter which team wins the championship, it will become the weakest champion in the history of the UEFA Cup.

England's results in the Champions League are indeed not very convincing. Three Serie A teams entered the quarter-finals, and three teams qualified for the semi-finals together, but in contrast to the English teams, Manchester United stopped in the quarter-finals, Arsenal Na and Newcastle were stuck in the group stage of the second leg, which really makes one have to admit the gap.

But the English media certainly couldn't concede defeat. They immediately hyped the only team left in the European competition, believing that this team represented the hope of the English league, and at the same time made a plausible excuse for the inadequacy of the Premier League team.

Well our team didn't do well in the Champions League and that's because the Premier League has the most events of all leagues, the tightest schedule and the most competitive league at the same time, we don't have a winter break, so that's why our team is in After the winter, I always fell into a physical bottleneck, which caused trouble for the team in multi-line operations.

Otherwise, hum, you see, even our second-tier league teams can enter the UEFA Cup finals, and maybe even win the championship. It is conceivable how strong our Premier League team is!

……………… Xiao Yu didn’t feel anything wrong with the Italian media and the English media making fun of it. As long as it didn’t affect the team’s preparations, Xiao Yu would not care how the outside media hyped it up.

Moreover, for the Ministry of Commerce, the more aggressive the hype, the more favorable it will be for the team's business development.

At present, we have begun to discuss with the sponsors. If the team is promoted to the Premier League this season, and then beats Arsenal in the FA Cup and Celtic in the UEFA Cup, the sponsorship fee will be paid next season. Substantial improvement.

And Xiao Yu has made it clear before that, as long as the team is upgraded, no matter where the UEFA Cup and FA Cup are, all the bonuses obtained will be distributed as bonuses to the players, and Xiao Yu will also give additional bonuses. An upgrade bonus.

To the advantage, the finals of the FA Cup and UEFA Cup are arranged after the league, and then the team can prepare for the league with peace of mind, and at the same time cope with this crucial battle with Portsmouth.

In addition, because Arsenal, another team that entered the FA Cup final, has secured European qualifications, no matter what the result of this game is, they will qualify for the UEFA Cup next season.

These two pieces of news did have a big impact, allowing the team to prepare for the game in a more relaxed mood, and after Mourinho finished Lazio's second round, he also announced that the next ball The focus of the team's preparations will be on the league.

From the early stage to the late stage of this season, we have always insisted on multi-line operations, but even so, the performance in the League One is also very good, and now you can prepare for the league with peace of mind, which is considered by many English media as other teams in League One. The strong return of the Nightmare!

Mourinho revealed his goal for the first time in the interview. He hopes that this season can continue the brilliant state of last season, win the league, the UEFA Cup and the FA Cup, and achieve the triple crown of the League One!

"Won the treble for two consecutive years. This will definitely be a legend in the lower leagues of England. If this legend is really achieved, what will be the goal of the Premier League next year?"

Mourinho smiled proudly: "There may be many people who say that there is a huge gap between the Premier League and League One, just as they said the gap between League One and League Two, but in the past few years, we have never regarded ourselves as Zuko is a relegation team, so next year's Premier League, our goal will not be relegation!"

"Then what is your goal?"

"You'll know when the time comes!" Mourinho pretended to smile mysteriously.

"What's your attitude towards Stankovic and Stam arguing about leaving Lazio?"

Mourinho thought for a while, "These are two very good players, but it's a pity that they won't come, which is a pity for us, but we will introduce better and more potential stars!"

"Can you reveal your name?" The reporter seemed very gossip.

Mourinho shook his head, "Sorry, no comment!"

When you're done, turn around and leave!
