Section 5: matador and bull
A Brazilian journalist once said that Pele and Santos Taao than one match between the two, demonstrating the existence of God in this world. Even the most stubborn in the world not of the atheist, if the April 8, 2003 at the scene at the Bernabeu Stadium to watch the Manchester United Zinedine Zidane and Raul broke into the restricted area, such as when unhindered, it will probably reach the same conclusion. they are so elegant so unimpeded, as if playing the same play in the park.
This is the European Champions League quarter-final first leg against Manchester United, Real Madrid. intermission, I was sitting in the press box Bernabeu years. I still remember the English football stadium with a reporter in the face of the kind of world-weary folk abandoned, weather-beaten look. Although this may be their thousandth interviewed soccer game, but the first half, they are still excited . in which a reporter was particularly impressed me, he was a lace of London's best-selling tabloid work. At that time he even jumped up from his seat with excitement, as if just finished a very sensational religious. ; I think the past 30 years, no more exciting than this football game. , then the front of the court of these , Liweilinuo, Gaier Sen and Guerjinhuo body stronger far less players now, speed is not fast, the activities of the court space is not big enough, but 30 years later, with Zidane, Raul , Luis Figo, Roberto. Carlos and Ronaldo's Real Madrid has once again we believe that football can be played so perfect, or so close to perfect. Never mind what care about what satellite TV rights dispute, what shape the brand, football - the group of creative invention of the British 150 years ago the movement is much more important than these. That night, at the Bernabeu, Real Madrid for the fans offer a full of fresh, full of pep, full of adventure game, as Brazil in 1970. 70s of last century, John. Cruyff led by Ajax, as well as Ruud Gullit, Frank Rijkaard and Van Basten, AC Milan, composed, but also two different styles, but the same good team. But they are built on a good orderly, meticulous style on top of professional football. Real Madrid it gives a different feeling - tactics were ignored - just to show they play.
this feeling is deceptive. they really are artists, but they are tenacious fighters, a high energy in the game focused athlete, or one of only 12 years old, born will be able to play football acrobatic young and played for top European leagues, a 25-year-old professional soccer player there will be no distinction between. For Zidane, his football talent had such a thorough play, precisely because hardened brought him an unwavering determination, and it is this persistence, put him on top of world football. In the previous season (2001 -02 season), he had fired into the sport of the most memorable one goal, and he has also said that after a few years this will be the goals of his . Carlos from the edge of the area sent a note to his passing, up to his waist, not comfortable, but Zidane immediately twist, not very good with his left foot the ball into the goal vigorously over H . If the training, Zinedine Zidane scored a wonderful goal that, his teammates will handle high above his head to show doubt. But this is the Champions League final against Bayer Leverkusen in Germany, the world A total of 11 million viewers saw the live broadcast through the grain, the greatest goals. a great moment, the great Zinedine Zidane. most in need of goals for Real Madrid when he scored a goal, just as he was in 1998 when the World Cup final against Brazil as France scored two As the ball. In time of crisis to come forward, Zidane showed his team leader as a champion Zhenwofengcai, no matter how high the expectations of the fans, how much pressure.
2003 European Cup quarter of the year Real Madrid one of the final against Manchester United also is a critical moment, the players regarded the match in England described as Final still great. was generally believed that all of Europe, regardless of the giant Real Madrid or Manchester United win the battle, will clinch the Champions League that year, so in addition to the name of the game than from any sense, are real the final. Real Madrid is the defending champion, has the best player in the European Champions League; Manchester United's squad is also awesome, they had just in the last round sweep of 3 to 0 Juventus.
Ronaldo seems to be good at than anyone else play a key role in the key game. For this game, he can not wait. ; This is a supreme fight. So Manchester United coach Alex. Ferguson published a week before some fuel to the media comments, the results of the tension in the game pushed the vertices. Outgoing transfer Beckham news, is not it? prank it, but to say that damage morale, and if the Scots are not personally a few weeks ago created a Beckham is about to leave. It was 2003, February 17, from the Bernabeu That Jingdianzhizhan only 6 weeks, just Manchester United in the FA Cup defeat by Arsenal in the 0 to 2. in the locker room, when the the face of all the players, Sir Alex Ferguson to blame the failure of all blame in the head of David Beckham, Beckham has hit back with a roar as. Manchester United dressing room of the rules as strictly as a boarding school, so Beckham The response was incredible. Ferguson extremely shocked at first, almost transfixed, and then flushed with anger, his corner from the dressing room a step forward, with David Beckham from about 5 meters away, launched into a feet to kick a soccer boots in the past, did not think the ball is hit in the boots of David Beckham above the left eye, spot bleeding. This allows Beckham intolerable. Over the past few months, once the teams poor performance, Ferguson He always complained about one singled out for a pass, even in some of the important sessions of the game leave him on the bench. ;, and some national political struggles during the implementation of the coach. Fortunately, there are other players in the dressing room, Ryan Giggs, Gary. Neville and Van Nistelrooy opened the David Beckham in time frame, only prevent it becoming more difficult to clean up.
Although Manchester United press officer trying to hide (head put on a Band-Aid small wound, and with impunity to those who show a high degree of tension in the paparazzi all day. Therefore, Ferguson used an excuse to apologize. He said: his career, Ferguson has 50 similar actions done, but were unsuccessful. He said: Spain's leading sports newspaper headlines, David Beckham is leaving Manchester United, Spain will be his chosen destination, and so also the inevitable speculation in Spain and the United Kingdom spread to the media.
broker started meeting with reporters, journalists and club officials began meeting with the club officials began to broker contacts. newspapers slavishly exaggeration in this incident, so much to become more rumors trend. This time, Beckham Tim obviously linked with Real Madrid. Gengrang it seems even more complex, it is the Champions League quarter-final draw, the Manchester United will face the Real Madrid. Ferguson, this was the British Telegraph This time he more or less right.
the pre-war week in the Bernabeu, Robert. Carlos said that if he can, and working alongside David Beckham, he will feel very proud. He said, Real Madrid players) have told Real Madrid president, asking him to sign Beckham. 佛罗伦蒂诺 do not need the stimulation from the players to sign Beckham, the reality is that I am very much respected Ferguson , so he is not difficult to think, David Beckham around the uncertainty surrounding the club can be used just as a weapon to break the opponents array of psychological balance. success or failure, for the Manchester United first team is to mean the race victory or defeat.
fact c that means victory. contest the first leg at the Bernabeu, Real Madrid has an absolute psychological advantage. Two years ago, also in the European Champions League quarter-finals Real Madrid at home draw against Manchester United 0 to 0 and the case went to Old Trafford, Manchester United defeated 3 to 2. Today the Manchester United squad strength has not weakened, and now Real Madrid than two years ago powerful. More importantly, every person from Manchester United, as the owner of the football world, like, all of Real Madrid has a kind of awe. strongest team ever seen. will find the race to the Bernabeu will not help the team tension, leading to abnormal play, the reason is because the Real Madrid player's strength and reputation. Portuguese coach Carlos. Queiroz in the players before the game was played a few video games. These video games are not Real Madrid, as Real Madrid play at this time would only undermine the morale of the video. Queiroz Manchester United player is the peak exciting race moment shots, the purpose is to divert the attention of players to enable them to forget Real Madrid's strength and make them believe they have enough ability to beat any opponent. Queiroz is full of wisdom, he brings Manchester United This approach induced much respected Ferguson. Ferguson even so called him a Section: Bosque does not look like a poet
Beckham move to Real Madrid was not just that the Champions League quarter-final field is mapped out the only bright spot, Queiroz came in the summer of the same year Real Madrid coach Del Bosque replaced unexpectedly location is also quite ironic point .9 months later, when he sat in the Real Madrid training base of the office, and I remember that field with the European Champions Cup, Queiroz told me He hoped that through these videos tell the Manchester United players, they are also great and should be fearless.
this method to achieve the desired results if we do not know, perhaps this approach as too negative a Manchester United player at the technical level of the inferior and played a counterproductive consequences, we also do not know. we know, at least as Queiroz said, was with Manchester United players came away 50% chance of winning, but this hope is a prerequisite for Real Madrid star We can not play their best level. . hardest to predict in all sports competition program, Real Madrid may also be lost to the underdog, sometimes combined wages of all players in the team have not keep up with Zidane one!
time in David Beckham to join Real Madrid in Spain ranked second in the league, behind Real Sociedad and has 2 to 4 on the road to defeat opponents. They have lost some of unknown nationality nationality teams, such as Racing, such as Osasuna . Even a team like the lack of visibility in its location, not to mention the whole of Spain. genius behind have weaknesses, it is not in the game after another has been to maintain a high competitive state, or the attention of habitual players to be difficult to maintain concentration. for Queiroz, the Bernabeu is a battle of bad news, if the Real Madrid superstars peak can occur, then it will appear in the European Champions League game against Manchester United. Real Madrid almost peak No one can beat us! Queiroz is aware of this. but he is equally clear, even for the super team such as the twists and turns, which is no different from ordinary people. also just as all the football team, they can also be defeated.
Del. Bosque is also not complacent, for his team's weaknesses more than anyone has a deep understanding of . Do not worry about those in the domestic league worst results of the competition, they have barely passed the Belgian Genk team and the test of Lokomotiv Moscow, moved into the Champions League quarter-finals. Real Madrid, Manchester United battle after 9 months One morning, I was in Madrid a hotel coffee shop to see the Bosque, Real Madrid when he was fired from 7 months have passed.
his cheerful, like a philosopher. he would tell others, and his life Because of their love for the second son of very rich, but unfortunately, the child had Down syndrome. he and I talked about all his life to when the Bosque in August 1978 at Old Trafford took part in a celebration of Manchester United was held to build team for the 100th anniversary of the exhibition, when Real Madrid lost .32 0 to 4 years later, he is still Real Madrid a member, but has become a head coach as .2000, also in the European Champions Cup quarter-final, Real Madrid in the knockout victory over Manchester United 3 to 2. This victory brought him sweet memories. He knows that a game can actually have two completely different results.
he is well aware of Manchester United players know they will give what kind of impact on Real Madrid. Bosque said to me: . Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes is the key. there is David Beckham, Beckham, 18 years from the beginning, I have been very concerned about him. ; I have watched him for England held in France took part in a youth tournament 20 years of age, he is the best player of the tournament. We had most of the attention is focused on how to defend Ryan. Giggs on the. Giggs we fear, all the players regarded him as an extremely dangerous winger. , found a which then passed to Robert Shoupao Qiu. Carlos, Carlos the ball over the heads of Beckham, Zidane came to the foot. Zinedine Zidane point - his actions is like saying, do not worry We ball, we controlled the initiative - until a Manchester United defender steals. After a period of up to 55 seconds, Manchester United players have not even touched the ball skin. eventually lose the ball in the frontier closed area before the Manchester United, Real Madrid array 10 players have completed 21 passes.
beginning of the game, we have the media box at the Bernabeu stadium in intoxicated, and for the front of the superb skills of these players deeply impressed, even Zuidou not close out.
the tone of the game determined in the first minute off: Manchester United play the soccer, though old-fashioned, but very practical. backcourt ball Bigfoot open to the striker, striker then tried to recover the ball; Real Madrid played actually very Brazilian flavor, as one put it down as the ball toy, constantly stroked, refusing to share, it is sudden and devastating jealousy. If this were the whole game is inevitably a bit ironic, Manchester United in 90 minutes years, not always play such a direct, but Real Madrid is not always very smooth. but the game is so generally, generally speaking, the two teams play one like poetry, a prose like.
Bosque looks not as a poet, he slowly, to act strictly. On the surface, his personality and hired him in the club and the light of men there are always players out of tune. At first, he just used as John Welsh to make up for the end of 1999. Toshack left vacant by the sudden departure. But Bosque understand his coaching style seems to be very effective, at least in the locker room for those constraints, especially when a superstar. players began respect for him slowly, because they see that life is dedicated to the Bosque Real Madrid, either as player or coach, for a very deep understanding of football is not worse than others. More important, he absorbed the team concept, and into existing, that is: light is not enough to win. spend an hour talking with the Bosque football, he would certainly talk to the tactics. but out, spectacular scenes, performances, shows, perhaps it is its interpretation, in short, than he looks more like Bosque is a poet.
Section 8: courage, artistry and gorgeous
This is exactly the same bull, Bullfighting is not the ultimate goal of killing cattle, the result is not the most important, it is important to cattle to kill manners. In addition there is courage, artistic and gorgeous. Bernabeu That quarter-final, people think of the mind is the The audience certainly looking forward to an early end game, looking forward to brave the beast quickly escape the tragic end.
Somehow, some Manchester United players are confused, dizzy, confused of them seem to like us, standing there stunned. surprise they almost could not suppress his impulses, the performance of Real Madrid players nodding his head to show approval, even applause tribute. it seems they have been ignorant, because in a very long period of time, they seem to have given up years of Manchester United to the inherent spirit: stand up and fight. And that is precisely Ferguson spare no effort to instill in the players thoughts and desires.
two gaps in the technical level is almost embarrassing, like a bar band and a Support Symphony Orchestra. Real Madrid are playing Portuguese star Luis Figo in and of it, whether it is at rest or running in able to complete such a perfect ball, and pass the ball freely retractable. Real Madrid players do not have to be like their master control technology to play the ball to the extreme, because the ball came his teammates are, in terms of intensity, pace or point of view, have been great. catch those who have sufficient time to observe the situation on the ground, taking the ball the next step way for the other lost in the mind, always a step behind.
fragments of the game fully demonstrated this point, most of these scenes appear in the left side of midfield, that is, the piece of Manchester United and a half outside the area space about the size of a tennis court, it was Zidane's site. is responsible for defending the piece of the region actually has four Manchester United players, namely, Roy. Keane, David Beckham, Gary. Neville and Rio. Ferdinand . They all are already famous internationals. When the situation is difficult to control, to assist them in defense, as well as Wes. Brown and Nicky. Butt. they have to face the offensive players, including Zinedine Zidane, Raul and Robert. Carlos. in a relatively such a small venue, Zidane their dazzling footwork to make the ball more than a dozen legs in walking through, but still hold possession until it was Luis Figo on the right and set off a burst of attacking waves. Only a move to Real Madrid star who opens the channel, Manchester United closed to suddenly increase the degree of risk, ball, hailed by the Spanish got into the top right of the door.
terms from the time between the two sides have obvious difference. regardless of sport in that a star can be completed at the same time, more action than the average player . Zinedine Zidane on the pitch there is always more than others have time on the ball, that means that he moves the ball, whether the ball or passing the time required, than any one player to be less a few milliseconds, which is that just a few milliseconds, so that he can arbitrarily done to complete the action you want. This is why his game against Manchester United from time to time give the impression that the impression of contempt for opponents. This is not So, he is not like the despised opponent, he respected Ryan Giggs, David Beckham respect, but also because of this, it is easy for Zidane is a complete game, than David Beckham or Ryan Giggs are much easier.
look at the Spanish sports daily 16.
but a great team and one can not simply rely on Zinedine Zidane. Raul scored two goals in that game, finished his career the most important in a show. Ferguson, commented after the game said: Figo said: At least the big players to participate in this competition are regarded as this generation of players Raul, are best represented, but also a native of Spain's best players. his natural laudable achievements.
had only 25 years old won the European Cup 3 times, 3 times Spanish league title. So far, he is in the European Champions League scorer in history. Even if you do not know Raul, and nothing about his achievements, then when you first see him as Zidane, Ronaldo's team-mate Luis Figo also play together with them, will be scratching your scalp puzzled: how Raul joined such a successful Royal noble team it? Argentine players Fernando. Redondo was at Real Madrid teammate Raul, October 1994, when Raul played in La Liga first time wearing a Real Madrid shirt, Redondo also array .
the debut did not give the number of Argentines left a deep impression: also not able to complete the game player. He almost never dominant: David Beckham has an amazing right foot, Rivaldo's left foot is perfect, Michael. Owen has lightning speed, Figo's dribbling technique dazzling, Ronaldo integration of the elegance and power of more than Zinedine Zidane has it all hh
view of this, that obviously can not tenable Raul exquisite talent. Raul's skills are not obvious, the weakness of his right foot, speed, unpleasant, is not really good heading ability, he's running and sometimes clumsy, the ball is not his strong suit. Even the possession of the ball, he looks a bit too lazy. If a little more bitter, and head on the high court, air miles, such as the tiger swallow compared to Zinedine Zidane, Raul, but is a third-rate player. If compared him to an animal, he should be a small terrier, or rabbit, or a fox.
Section 9: The key to success
Raul Raul key to success lies in his thoughts far more than he can achieve with both feet to more than any one of which is his and he on behalf of the star's place.'s absolute loyalty to the club to let him different, it was Jorge. Valdano as Seoul, He is very serious things can be done all around as if nothing. and once into the game, he can make the 90 minutes are full of passion, as if born to whom. his father .1994 football, Real Madrid coach when he Valdano. this very talented man football as a belief in Madrid, under 17-year-old debut in the league. At the time, he was regarded as the Spanish Football's goals, and he also missed three shots in close proximity. that game, that every time a newspaper will report: Double bandy legs, did not seem a little angry.
after him in a derby against Atletico Madrid in the battle, he kick volley edge of the area finally blew open the other side of the goal, and he has created a penalty, sent a note to pass from teammate completed assists, and is precisely the goals to seal the victory for Real Madrid. Raul enough to be included in the next career history, but has not changed is what he calls self-control This is not change in the future.
different striker scored easily for the loss of the opportunity to have different reactions. Some do some face, shook his head, obviously not publicity, such as the famous Manchester United, Norway Face killer a vexing philosophical answer to the question, Thierry. Henry to fall into this category - ; Raul is not a betrayal of any emotion from the players, if he is the first in a game 89 minutes was enough to win the match missed a goal, he ran back to the location, as a sideline waiting for the ball given. Raul will not let yourself indulge even a millisecond. There are many things to be done, brought no time to waste. he would never let their opponents see their teammates or to show a single cent vulnerability, if not well controlled myself and everything, he will not let myself have the slightest relaxation.
Raul on the pitch sometimes reflect the evil side. If you before the game in a Real Madrid , A closer look at the eyes of Raul in the queue, you will see the dark, cold and firm, his eyes reveal a hint of contempt. friendly, not at all to see. with no sense of humor, ruthless, mean and violent to describe He is right. Think of the movie need to play to the extreme places. Joseph. Guardiola, Barcelona as a player, his career, Raul has been with the enemy. Listen to how he said it: proper position, both in what corner of the pitch, he is very clear what to do.
if he is in midfield, he will only choose one foot pass; in the edge of the area if he will work hard goals, or for the location of teammates better pass from sending more threatening. The ball, when he would get the ball, the ball when he will pass, if two had a chance, he is absolutely will not miss. If I were an audience, I would have called him as a perfect player, because football's most annoying than when a player passes the ball, pass the time of the ball, the ball is passing the time. Raul told us that in the end game should be how to play. be called the good. Ross had made one with two. This is a game feel all wishes come true. dream is one such game. name. And my eyes, Raul and cartoons on the sidelines bears no resemblance to characters, more like a well-known in Europe for all afraid of the cold-blooded killer back. Maybe I can not ...
