No goals, just an opening shot.
Many Gremio players felt insulted.
Even if you have excellent skills, they are still Copa Libertadores champions.
In this era of great overseas expansion in South America, many people still think that the domestic league is the best.
I don't even want to go to Europe to play football.
The most important thing is the cognitive issue.
It is difficult for children from slums to understand the changes in the world, and it is not easy to go to Europe to play football in South America.
Even a few years later, many Brazilian players were sold by their agents to Europe as black slaves.
It probably means asking for a very high agent commission and getting the players a very low salary to sign a contract with a European club.
Or they were transferred to Russia by gangsters to help them make money.
This kind of thing is common in South America and Eastern Europe.
Lack of nutrition at a young age and playing football with adults too early have doomed most Brazilian players to premature aging. Self-discipline is also a reason. It is rare for Ze·Roberto to play into his 40s.
Ronaldo's knees were already in worse condition than those of players in their 20s before he landed in Europe.
Robinho Riding a bicycle more than 100 times a day also caused permanent knee joint problems.
Passing people is an important indicator of Brazilian youth training.
Pooh Hughes attempts 24 dribbles every day.
Most Brazilian players' careers are doomed from the time they play on concrete.
But even if they knew this would happen, they wouldn't change their style.
The Samba Kingdom has its own pride.
Facing opponents like Dejan Lu, they are not timid, they just feel insulted.
Especially Alberto da Costa.
As the No. 10 player of the South American Champions, he has an arrogance that is different from ordinary people.
Knowing the strength of Manchester United in advance, he was also prepared to lose.
But in his script, Manchester United won a small victory by one or two goals. He won the respect of Manchester United and all the fans with his gorgeous extraordinary performance. Gremio was proud of the defeat.
After the game, Manchester United players rushed to exchange jerseys with him. In winter, Real Madrid paid a high price to persuade Gremio to release him, and he became the core of the Spain giants.
But Dejan Lu's behavior clearly wanted to steal his life.
This was unacceptable to Costa.
You European players can just make crosses from the bottom, why do you still need to use technical moves to get past others?
DaCosta is going to let Dejan Lu see how powerful he is.
As a player born in the wild field, he also has quite gorgeous passing skills.
Goalkeeper Danli threw the ball, Carlos·Júnior passed it forward, and Alberto·Da Costa took the ball directly.
Gremio plays a diamond 442, and the position of the front midfielder is very critical.
Da Costa immediately pedaled the bicycle continuously after receiving the ball. His shoulders drove his feet as if his waist did not exist, and his body moved continuously with a rhythm.
The gorgeous pass brought exclamations from the stands.
Redondo curled his lips and was not even interested in grabbing him. He gave Scholes a gesture to let him pass.
Scholes is a little excited.
This is the trust that the best defensive players place in him.
Beckham was already pressing forward on the right side, and he happened to go over to help defend.
DaCosta's feet were very fast, and Scholes couldn't find a chance to strike.
Somewhat losing his patience, his eyes began to wander.
"Don't tackle, Paolo!"
Beckham reminded.
This game is still about a championship. If Scholes is dyed red, it will not do the team any good.
Scholes could only continue to wait. Redondo, who was a little impatient, stepped forward and kicked the ball directly from in front of da Costa to behind him.
Cantona, who retreated, failed to get it, and the ball went to Júnior's feet.
Carlos·Júnior is a single defensive midfielder. He gets the ball and immediately distributes it to the left.
Louis Silva Sombrero flick in a small area easily passed by Beckham.
These little-known Brazilian players all have good foot skills. Counting the goalkeepers, they are all good cyclists per capita.
Gary·Neville was about to grab it when he saw Dejan Lu making a hand gesture.
Steve·Bruce came to the side to cover up the defense. Silva wanted to chase back, but Dejan Lu didn't know when he came over to cut off his defensive line.
I can't dribble the ball from the side, and I can't pass it back.
The winger decisively pushed the ball and forced a breakthrough.
Gary·Neville, who had been waiting for a long time, stretched out his foot at the right moment and poked the ball out in one go.
Click——
Dejan Lu raised his foot to let the ball pass, easily deceiving Da Costa who came over.
Upon seeing this, Beckham quickly ran to the middle to give up his position. Scholes rolled his eyes angrily and moved to the left.
Carlos·Júnior rushed to the right right away, but Dejan Lu pushed the ball out with the outside instep of his left foot while running.
Snap,
Immediately follow with an inner instep pull back.
The large movement still made the midfielder give up his position.
Flick the oxtail!
Just by slowing down a passing movement, he easily deceived the center of gravity of the South American champion's midfielder.
The stadium erupted with cheers that were several times louder than before.
Gremio's defensive players were completely panicked.
They don't know what to do.
Fortunately, Da Costa, who was chasing after, ran into the backcourt.
The No. 10 was obviously unwilling to let Dejan Lu continue to perform, and immediately came over to help Roger Mark defend together.
Although Da Costa's defensive ability is not strong.
But as an offensive player, he knows exactly what situations offensive players hate the most.
He pressed his center of gravity and kept approaching the sideline, hoping to push Dejan Lu on the sideline with his teammates.
Dejan Lu also noticed the other party's thoughts.
This is indeed a good idea.
But he couldn't let the other party get what he wanted.
Snap——
Dejan Lu directly sent the ball forward. Da Costa thought that Dejan Lu was going to penetrate his crotch, so he quickly brought his thighs together to drive his calf, making a straight-line clamping movement.
But Dejan Lu's toes immediately pulled the ball back.
Before the ball reaches completely in front of him, he knocks the ball diagonally forward with his right foot.
Bang——Roger Marks quickly followed and retreated, continuing to put pressure on Dejan Lu.
Dejan Lu leaned forward slightly, taking small steps with his left and right feet to keep the ball close by. Suddenly, he made a movement with his shoulder and moved the outside instep of his right foot to move the ball, but then pushed the inside instep forward to the left.
Mark Si then raised his feet and discovered that he had been deceived.
But just a small mistake allowed Dejan Lu to dribble the ball to his wing. Before Mark could stretch his foot, Dejan Lu had already rubbed the outside instep of his right foot.
Snap——
The pass from the front of the foot was sent to the center of the top of the penalty area with a precise external rotation.
Manchester United's two strikers and Scholes are nearby.
Cantona jumped up and knocked the ball down with his chest, knocked the ball to the left with his left foot, and then turned around and volleyed with his left foot. This set of actions was done in one go. Gremio's defender had no time to block it, and goalkeeper Danli couldn't block it either. The ball flew into the left side of the goal.
In the opening minutes, a goal finally came.
Boom——
Tokyo National Stadium instantly burst into loud cheers.
Even if the enthusiasm of the fans is not as good as the eruption of Mount Fuji, it is not far behind.
Japanese football, deeply influenced by Zico, has always been a technical stream.
They enjoyed today's exciting game very much.
"Dejan-kun!"
"Dejan-kun!"
"Dejan-kun!"
High-octave cheers echoed throughout the stadium again.
Cantona, who scored the goal, is used to all this.
He himself is relatively popular among fans, and he doesn't care even if Dejan Lu steals his limelight, after all, he is a teammate he recognizes.
If it were a young man like Beckham, he wouldn't be able to bear it.
The TV Tokyo commentator shouted passionately during the replay, "When Dejan-kun faced the Brazilian team, he used his extremely gorgeous extraordinary moves to perform a face-to-face teaching. There is no opponent in the Samba Kingdom that can match it!"
Ferguson smiled and clapped his hands, not too excited.
As one of the most talented coaches, he has keenly discovered that South American football is declining very quickly.
The tactics of European football have developed so fast that personal heroism has been infinitely compressed.
England Football has lagged far behind after being banned for several years, not to mention South America, which has loose tactics.
He expected that there would be no difficulties in this game.
If he asks the players to be more serious, it is possible for Dejan Lu to score double-digit goals in a single game. Teams whose defense likes to press forward will easily be penetrated by through balls and long passes. With Dejan Lu's counterattack efficiency, it is not strange for South American teams to be beaten with blood.
DaCosta looked a little ugly.
The situation was getting further and further away from what he expected.
Just during the opening period, he felt that his opponent was much stronger than he thought.
Even if you don't want to stand out, you still have to perform similarly.
Fans in Brazil will not forgive you for being bloodbathed by your opponents just because you won the Copa Libertadores.
Fortunately, the opponent is a world-leading team like Manchester United. As long as we don't lose by a big score, we'll be fine.
If it were any ASEAN All-Stars, fans would besiege their bus after losing.
Jardel and Nunes returned to the center circle again and prepared to kick off.
Da Costa said from behind, "Be careful, we still have a chance."
In this way, Mario Jardel is a little curious. This teammate's performance today is unusual.
Jardel kicked off the ball to Nunes.
Nunes was not in a hurry and dribbled the ball diagonally in small steps.
His right foot kept rolling over the ball, pulling it along.
You can see a good feel for the ball just from one movement.
If you want to become a star in Brazil, even if you can score 50 goals in a season, it is not as good as being able to pass a few people per game. This trend affects the selection of Brazilian teams.
Players who are slightly less comfortable with the ball have to play in the backcourt.
Andy Cole pressed hard quickly, but was easily passed by Nunes with a small range of Sombrero flick.
Beckham went up to cover the defense very quickly, and Nunes turned around and passed the ball back to his teammate.
Alex·Dos Santos.
Such a name may have Alex printed on the back after being logged into Europe, or it may simply have a nickname or hometown name printed on the back. Dos Santos is too common.
The winger took the initiative and found Dejan Lu.
It's not easy to compete with players that Pelé praises. Dos Santos wants to perform in front of the TV.
He carefully stopped the ball in place and kept using fake body movements to try to trick Dejan Lu into stretching his feet, but he did not touch the ball himself.
This is also a very common passing action in Brazil.
Ronaldinho and Neymar lifting their feet and shaking on the ball are also one of them.
Dejan Lu is not in a hurry, but deliberately plays with his opponent here.
He is waiting for Gremio's formation to press forward.
The opponent can also pull the opponent's formation with the ball, which is a great deal.
Dos Santos's teammates came up to respond, and Dejan Lu took a step forward with his left foot, stretched out his right foot, and stepped sideways out of the way.
really.
Dos Santos knocked the ball forward and wanted to pass it directly.
But his attention was always on Dejan Lu, and he didn't even notice that Redondo had come over to defend.
Just as he ran past Dejan Lu, he was stuck in position by Redondo.
Little Neville stepped forward to catch the ball easily.
After finally replacing Irwin, little Neville completely treated this game as an important game like the Champions Cup finals.
He immediately raised his head to observe after receiving the ball, moved to the right and pretended to walk to the middle, and immediately passed the ball to the left side of the frontcourt.
The set of actions is very standard.
When the opponent is not attacking, attract the opponent's attention and then pass the ball.
Some deliberately imitate the style of Irwin.
Even the passing styles are similar, preferring to pass bigger than too close.
The ball went directly behind Francesco Arce. This full-back with Italy pedigree has good speed, but Dejan Lu took the first step and occupied a favorable position, which meant that he could only chase behind him.
Dejan Lu didn't use speed to throw away his opponent.
The physical fighting between you and me only accelerated the adrenaline secretion of the fans.
"The single defensive midfielder may have to be abandoned."
Ferguson said without thinking.
Kidd nodded on the side.
A defensive midfielder looks very difficult now, no matter what team it is.
Arsenal played well before. They also used three midfielders to take turns as double midfielders, and sometimes even turned into three midfielders.
Both Dejan Lu and Beckham have the ability to quickly transfer long passes.
If your midfielder goes all the way, the other side will be empty. Even if you don't return to the penalty area to help defend, a single midfielder can't help his teammates suppress the two wings.
This is caused by the current trend in football.
The offensive system and the players' personal abilities will make the single defensive midfielder too busy.
This is not something that running ability can make up for.
Dejan Lu dribbled the ball to the wing of the penalty area almost instantly. Júnior and Mendes came together to help defend.
Facing three defensive players, Dejan Lu flicked his tail followed by a small area Sombrero flick and easily entered the penalty area. Before he could handle the ball and turn around, Mendes stretched out his foot and tripped Dejan Lu.
"The referee did not call a penalty kick, which caused dissatisfaction among the Manchester United players."
"He may want to balance the game, but there will be no surprises in today's game. Manchester United will easily win another championship. It is inevitable for Ferguson's team to win two championships before the Christmas schedule."
"Yes, the referee gave a corner kick, which was also a good opportunity. Dejan gave up the right to take the penalty to Beckham. These young people David·Beckham get along well with Dejan. This is good news for Manchester United fans, otherwise they will have to be sold. Only No. 7 is indispensable in Manchester United."
"Maybe Ferguson should consider bringing in some former Samp players and turn Manchester United into a team of Dejan and his friends."
"That's not bad."
Jim·Beglin and Martin·Taylor joked.
The controlled variable method is a very interesting experimental method.
Looking at the impact of the absence of these main players of Manchester United, it can be easily concluded that only the absence of Dejan Lu will affect the strength of Manchester United. Even if other goalkeepers such as Redondo or Schmeichel take turns, the impact on the team will not be that big.
Beckham took a corner kick after a run-up. Andy Cole obviously did not realize the opponent's problem.
Catalino Mendes only let go of Cole's jersey when he took off in the air, causing Cole to lose his balance in the air.
Addison Bati Star easily pushed the ball out of the penalty area.
"Referee, they committed a foul!"
Cole sat on the ground and raised his hands and shouted.
The referee didn't say anything.
Luis Silva took the ball and was about to take it forward, but Beckham made a sliding tackle from the front and knocked the ball down behind him.
The two of them were entangled and chasing the ball together. Beckham, whose jersey was pulled, stumbled but barely maintained his balance.
Roger Mark wanted to double-team, but Beckham quickly gave up the confrontation and knocked the ball away the moment he fell to the ground.
Scholes caught the ball and tried to hang it into the penalty area, but failed.
Mendes jumped up and pushed the ball out.
Dejan Lu, who was standing at the top of the arc, turned his back and stretched his right foot but was unable to reach the ball. Fortunately, Redondo, who penetrated forward, successfully got the ball.
Redondo just took a step and passed the ball to Dejan Lu with a kick, and ran towards the penalty area.
Dejan Lu catches the ball and swings his body, with a fake movement on his shoulders.
Mendes immediately blocked the front, and behind him was Júnior who rushed towards Dejan Lu.
Coupled with Bati Star and Arce standing on the left, there are four defensive players near Dejan Lu.
It was under such defense that Dejan Lu swung his right foot out after twisting his right leg continuously.
The ball quickly passed in front of Bati Star, and the defender didn't even have time to make a move. Front Mendes Contract His legs were afraid of being pierced, but he didn't expect the ball to fly past him.
Goalkeeper Danli had poor vision. By the time he discovered that the ball was flying to the left, it was already too late. He didn't even adjust his center of gravity. He just bent down and watched the ball fly into the goal.
A stroke of genius!!!
Even Cantona and Redondo, who were mentally prepared, couldn't help but froze in place.
They all know that Dejan Lu can dribble past everyone and score.
But I didn't expect that Dejan Lu was simply incompetent. He caught the ball on the spot and immediately hit the goal with a fake move. In front of the defensive players, he stood at the top of the key and hung the goal.
The trajectory of this ball is obviously that of a small spoon!
Damn it!!!
Cantona always knew that Dejan Lu was crazy, but he didn't expect Dejan Lu to be so inappropriate.
Kicking a small spoon during a penalty kick is a challenge to the goalkeeper.
There were four defensive players around him in this damn positional battle. The goalkeeper was still in his position, so he just hit the goal with a little spoon that hit the defensive space.
If Schmeichel had scored like this, there would have been a fight in the Manchester United dressing room during halftime today.
stunned!
Gremio's players didn't expect to be scored like this.
Don't even know how to react.
The fans were very excited and quickly shouted the name Dejan Lu.
"Dejan-kun!"
"Dejan-kun!"
"Dejan-kun!"
Except for the fans behind the goal, it was difficult to see exactly what was going on.
After Sky Sports's live broadcast room was silent for a few seconds, Jim Beglin shouted passionately.
"Dejan!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Dejan Goal!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Unbelievable! Unbelievable! What a goal!"
"In the match against the strongest team in the Samba Kingdom, Copa Libertadores champion Gremio, Dejan scored an amazing goal. I even think this goal will be the best goal in the history of Toyota Cup!"
"After receiving the pass from Redondo, facing many defensive players, Dejan used his body to fake movements and made the opponent's defender make a mistake without touching the ball. He stood 20.15 meters away from the goal and scored a small spoon lob. This is what happened. The goal will make every goalkeeper in the world feel chilled. Hilton often said that he retired early to avoid meeting Dejan. Now we all find that he is the smartest player in England's history."
"Even if Dejan doesn't use his strength and only uses his wisdom, he will be every goalkeeper's nightmare!!!"
From the TV replay perspective, fans can clearly see what happened to the ball.
Dejan Lu's back, his right leg twisted, from the inside instep to the outside instep, and finally he hoisted the ball out. But when he changed to a frontal view, the fans were surprised to find that Dejan Lu's eyes were always looking at the right side of the penalty area.
Obviously such sight also interferes with the judgment of the opponent's players.
Coupled with the shaking of the waist and shoulders, the Gremio players seemed to be standing there watching Dejan Lu shoot.
In fact, their focus changed several times, but they could not predict the choice of Dejan Lu.
How terrible!
Francesco·Totti Sitting cross-legged in front of the TV, this was the only feeling I had when I saw this goal.
He has worked very hard to learn everything about Dejan Lu, and his recent lobs made Italy newspapers exclaim that he is a super genius.
But compared to Dejan Lu's positional battle goal, the goalkeeper's single goal in those counterattacks was far behind.
Loyalty to Rome was etched in his mind from childhood.
But at this moment, the idea of becoming teammates with Dejan Lu took over.
If you can't play with such players in your career, even if you help Roma win the championship, it will be a failure.
Totti quickly took out a pen and paper, as well as the Italian-English Dictionary, and started to get busy again, preparing to contribute a new article to "The Sun".
The players on both sides were far more impacted than the fans.
It took almost ten seconds for the Manchester United players to react and rush to the stands to celebrate with Dejan Lu.
Scholes still wants to squeeze in.
However, his height and weight did not have any advantage at all. He was bumped by Andy Cole and almost fell down. When he stood firm and moved closer, Dejan Lu had already lost his position.
But he still celebrated excitedly to the stands.
Seeing such a wonderful goal, he felt that he learned a lot.
There was no way he could catch up in terms of technique and ball feel, but Dejan Lu's calmness still left a deep impression on him.
Even though he has such strong extraordinary ability, he still makes such a choice at this time.
Scholes feels that he has learned.
It doesn't mean you have to be in the limelight in front of the door, but you need to think calmly.
Just like those forwards who like to play in the far corners, they usually have a big heart and can make calm judgments at critical moments.
And some forwards have the ball at their feet, as if they will be shot if they don't hit the goal immediately.
He will even hit the ball over the crossbar from a few meters in front of the goal.
This is a very critical point.
Especially in important games, one choice may affect the direction of the trophy.
Scholes, who likes to think, has realized the key to improving himself.
"Ryan, get up and warm up."
Ferguson turned around and waved.
Giggs took off his training jacket and walked to the sidelines.
He was quite satisfied to be able to play so early today.
"Dejan has many endorsements in Japan. Maybe he doesn't want to end his career too early."
Kidd said from the side.
"Ah, I didn't think about it!"
Ferguson slapped his right hand hard with his left hand and said, "Then wait a little longer before changing people."
Giggs:...
Do you want to hear what you have to say?
This Wales's hopeful heart stared viciously at the back of Kidd.
Damn, just one sentence made him white.
I have to find my place again when I have time.
Players from both sides once again returned to midfield for the kick-off amid the cheers of the fans.
Gremio's players all had red eyes.
The strength shown by Dejan Lu really shocked them.
But if this continues, they may be besieged by fans as soon as they get off the plane back home.
Whether it is fans or players, South American football has not realized that the gap between the two sides has widened a lot at this time.
The psychological expectation is that both sides are about the same strength, and the required result is naturally a close score.
Even if they are not as extreme as the Colombians, Brazilian fans are not good-tempered.
Before the game started, they still wanted to win the championship, but now the whole Gremio team has begun to fight to get rid of the blame.
If anyone makes a major mistake today, such as sending an own goal, they will definitely not get good results after returning home.
Jardel took the ball and pulled it directly to the left to find Beckham.
Such a choice made Nunes couldn't help but roll his eyes.
I ran to his side specifically because I felt that Dejan Lu was not easy to bully, and I wanted to get some outstanding statistics on the young man.
Jardel is nearly 1.9 meters tall, but still very good underfoot.
A bit like Lucio in the forward line.
His two long legs quickly crossed the ball, and he still pedaled his bicycle crazily in the face of Beckham.
His height determines that his bicycle will not be able to drive the ball as well as Robinho and Little Mancini, but Beckham is not relaxed at all.
When he started playing in the first team, his defensive duties were higher than his offensive duties.
If he is passed frequently, he will definitely lose his position.
After noticing that the opponent's shoulders were not swaying, Beckham carefully stared at the opponent's feet.
Suddenly Jardel started the ball directly.
Even if Beckham was prepared, he was still a step too late.
It was too late to stretch his legs, Jardel's long legs were already blocking the right side of the ball.
The two people were entangled in this way and rushed forward along the sideline. Jardel suddenly kicked his heel back and gave the ball back to his teammate.
This is indeed a good opportunity. Dos Santos takes the ball and transfers it sideways. Da Costa receives the ball in the middle and immediately kicks the ball and sends a through ball.
The timing of Nunes's start is very good. If you are slower, you will not get the ball. If you are faster, you will be offside.
This time he received the ball in the penalty area and formed a single shot, but the ball speed was a bit fast. When he controlled the ball steadily, he was already at a very small angle on the right side of the penalty area.
Schmeichel The center of gravity is closer.
He glanced out of the corner of his eye to find his teammates, and Schmeichel took this opportunity to rush towards him.
With Schmeichel's roar, Nunes's somewhat panicked shot hit Schmeichel's arms directly.
Although he wanted to make a follow-up shot, Schmeichel quickly got on the ball and gave him no chance.
Steve·Bruce shrunk his neck and prepared to be scolded. Unexpectedly, Schmeichel got up and threw the ball out.
Obviously he didn't want to waste the opportunity to fight back.
Scholes took the ball with his back and was pressed by Luis Silva.
Fortunately, he flicked his heel before falling to the ground and passed the ball.
Dejan Lu reacted quickly and immediately took the lead to steal the ball in front of Silva. With a flick of his right foot, he rushed from the center circle to the opponent's half.
Silva chased Dejan Lu one meter behind.
His teammates were all chasing him on a horizontal line, positioning themselves like four defenders.
Scholes and Cantona were rushing forward crazily, and the last two defenders who were lagging behind did not dare to be careless.
Júnior turned around to judge the timing, and then he made a move to get close to Dejan Lu. Dejan Lu immediately passed the ball with his right foot, followed by his left foot.
A complete bicycle and shoulder fake movements control the frequency of the feet, forcing Júnior, who is about to stretch his feet, to adjust his center of gravity.
He couldn't control it well and simply fell to the turf.
There was a burst of laughter at the Tokyo National Stadium.
Coming!
Cantona As soon as he saw this situation, he knew that he was lucky.
He quickly pulled to the right.
Júnior was still stumbling to chase back. Dejan Lu dribbled the ball to the top of the arc and immediately moved his instep.
Snap——
Cantona, who was well prepared, slowed down sideways, waited for the ball to come and pushed the ball forward, easily sending the ball into the far corner.
Scored twice!
This ball is so damn easy.
Dejan Lu assisted him in one step.
Eric·Cantona decided that from now on he would be Dejan Lu's half-brother...
