Chapter 105 Why Win?

Valencia and Lazio were assigned to a group is the climax of the UEFA Champions League group stage draw ceremony, when the result came out, everyone was discussing this group.

Looks like it's really revenge night.

First of all, Chang Sheng and Valencia, the feuding couple, got together in the draw ceremony, and then Barcelona wanted Chang Sheng for revenge in the European Super Cup...

As for Olympiacos and Shakhtar Donetsk being assigned to the same group later, this kind of thing must not attract attention.

In fact, Lazio really got a good sign...

The results of the draw came out, and the grouping of the four Italian teams was as follows: Inter Milan was drawn into Group B, a group with Bayern Munich, Sparta Moscow, and Sporting Lisbon.

Milan Group H, with Anderlecht, Lille and aek Athens.

Roma are in Group E alongside Real Madrid, Dynamo Kyiv and Steaua Bucharest.

Lazio are in Group D with Valencia, Shakhtar Donetsk and Olympiacos.

In fact, the grouping situation of the four Italian teams is not bad, none of them is a real group of death.

As long as he plays normally, qualifying from the group should not be a problem.

As soon as the group drawing ceremony ended, Chang Sheng had just walked out of the hall when he was surrounded by reporters waiting outside, more media than before he walked in.

Obviously everyone is aware of the grievances between him and Valencia.

Similarly, Valencia's current coach Flores was also surrounded by reporters.

The reporters gathered around these two people at the door were the most.

People want to hear what these two think of this damn split lottery.

Chang Sheng was very relaxed: "I am very excited to be able to return to Mestalla. I have many friends there. We are still in regular contact..."

Flores said with a serious expression: "Our goal is to qualify for the group stage, and all work is based on this goal." He refused to comment on the reunion with Changsheng.

The reporters asked what they thought of the opposing coach.

Chang Sheng praised Flores' performance in Valencia,

At the same time, he thought it was unfair to always compare himself to Flores. "Each coach has its own characteristics, pure comparison is meaningless. I think Flores is the coach that Valencia needs."

And what about Flores?

"Chang is a good manager, what he did with Valencia. I want to be in the group stage. He will be a headache for me. But I will give my all to win."

He is still avoiding the important ones.

Chang Sheng commented on Flores generously.

Flores didn't dare, because he had a lot of worries.

If it's just that the fans and the local media miss Chang Sheng, Flores can still play a psychological battle with Chang Sheng at this time.

But the problem is that many players in the Valencia team actually have a good relationship with Chang Sheng. Especially several veteran players. Such as Vicente, Albelda, Baraja, Canizares, Ayala, Curro Torres, Mista, Angulo, David Villa... This almost occupies Valencia West Asia is now all the main force.

He and Chang Sheng spat at each other? I'm afraid that my team will be the first to rebel...

What my head coach has done is simply too hard.

When Soler asked him to replace Lopez as Valencia's new coach, he was quite happy and excited, smug, and vowed in his heart to make Valencia forget about winning - whether it was Ranieri or Lopez. Pace lives in the shadow of Chang Sheng.

But now he realizes how naive and ridiculous his original thoughts were.

I knew it would be like this in Valencia. He refused to accept Sorel's invitation!

Damn, I came to coach Valencia when I was full!

Who the hell would want to live in the shadow of someone for the rest of his life? No matter how good you are, you will always be compared with others, and then you will be defeated by the powerful seniors.

Finally, the reporters asked the two head coaches about their predictions for the group stage.

Chang Sheng said: "There is no doubt that our goal is not just to get out of the group."

And Flores said: "We will try to get out of the group."

Later, when the reporters put together the interviews of the two people. Only then did I see the difference.

A reporter sighed: "No wonder people often lead Valencia to sweep La Liga in a devastating manner, and finally reach the top of Europe. Valencia in Flores is just a team that is working hard to qualify for the Champions League. The coach's The momentum is completely incomparable!"

After the draw ceremony, on the second night, the UEFA Super Cup came as scheduled.

At the Luis II Stadium in Monaco, UEFA Cup champions Lazio and Champions League champions Barcelona will stage a peak duel!

Did Barcelona succeed in revenge, or did Chang Sheng continue to maintain his unbeaten record against Barcelona?

About this question. The media are generally more optimistic about Barcelona.

This is an obvious fact.

Barcelona has a strong army and has just won the Champions League, which makes their morale strong. The team lineup is stable and they cooperate with each other tacitly.

What about the ever-victorious Lazio? Even last season's Lazio. The strength also seems a bit weak, whether it is the whole or the individual, it cannot be compared with Barcelona, ​​but that team still has the strength to fight.

Now the ever-victorious Lazio team doesn't even have the strength to fight.

Almost half of the main players have been replaced. The team is going to run in again, and it will take a month and a half to know how well they are running in... Anyway, this team is from the strength to the tacit understanding. Not as good as Barcelona.

Why do they win?

※※※

"Someone asked us a question, guys," Chang Sheng said to his players in the Louis II locker room before the Super Bowl kicked off. "They asked us, such a team that was dismantled and rebuilt during the summer transfer period has only gone through one and a half months of running-in and played a few warm-up matches without pain. How can we win against Barcelona?"

He paced back and forth in the locker room, looking around at all the players.

"Some people also said that although Lazio won the UEFA Cup last season, it was an honor won by another Lazio and has nothing to do with Lazio now. What they said seems reasonable...but what I want to say yes."

Chang Sheng paused here. He looked at his players and the players looked at him.

He then continued: "They're all fucking farting."

In a very plain sentence, Chang Sheng didn't even use all his strength to wave his arms and shout.

But on the contrary, it was this kind of calm that made the players present feel the fierce and murderous aura of the boss.

They all know the story between Boss and Barcelona. Barcelona wants to defeat Boss and take revenge successfully. How could Boss make them get what they want?

"We played six friendlies in the summer. We won and lost those six friendly games, and now this Super Cup. It's our first official game of the new season, and it's also the first game where you officially introduce yourself to the world. .There are a lot of people who don't like us right now and they openly don't like a Serie A winning team and a UEFA Cup winning team. It's shocking that this naked disdain happened to us. It's just because of you Most of them joined the team this summer, and many of them have only been in Lazio for one year. Remember, they don't like us. It's not an insult to me, it's a humiliation to you! Now you have A good opportunity to slap them in the face in front of the whole of Europe and tell them why Lazio won? You guys!"

The players suddenly had a sense of divine purpose.

Lazio can win Barcelona, ​​not by the boss, but by us! We can beat Barcelona!

So everyone rushed out of the locker room with high fighting spirit.

this game. Chang Sheng started preparations a week in advance, and he is very familiar with Barcelona.

Because the tactics of this team are no different from the Dream Team 2 in his impression.

Basically, they play the same set that they played in Valencia, and they also have Ronaldinho and Deco in the team. This is the core midfielder who often wins Valencia.

So there's nothing new about Rijkaard's set.

tactically. Lazio played faster, more aggressive, tougher.

And it will surprise everyone.

Because Chang Sheng's tactical lesson for Barcelona is not Lazio's Mad Dog 2.0, but... a very tough defensive counterattack!

For this reason, he did not even announce the list in advance.

He just wanted to smack Barcelona.

Do you think I'm going to fight you in the game?

Big mistake!

Don't think I only know Barcelona's tactics!

I'm going to use Chelsea's method to deal with you!

In this game, Lazio is in order to cooperate with tactics. Even the lineup has changed.

Several of the previous main players had to be substitutes this time.

Changsheng arranged a group of muscular men in the midfield. Play body power flow, simple and rough.

The front line is both speed and spot-grabbing.

The main tactic is to intercept from the midfield when defending, organize the defense line, deploy layers of defense, and finally stick to the penalty area, using a strong body and defensive attitude to curb Barcelona's ball possession tactics, forcing Barcelona's players to be unable to control the ball at all.

The offense relies on quick counterattacks and advances to the dangerous area of ​​​​Barcelona as quickly as possible.

The frontcourt is full of players with excellent personal abilities. They can score goals alone without the support of their teammates.

In addition, great emphasis is placed on set pieces, whether it is attacking or defending. In terms of high-altitude balls, bombing Barcelona's goal. Barcelona without Piqué is their weak point in air defense.

This is Changsheng's tactical arrangement.

Very targeted.

Thank you Mourinho for future generations, and Chelsea for future generations.

They have made an excellent demonstration of how to deal with the Barcelona Dream Team II. As a latecomer, I just need to copy it and then make a little adjustment.

Barcelona think they are sure to win?

childish! (to be continued)
