I Want to Be the King of Football
Chapter 124： Maradona's left foot, Klose's head
After lunch, the players all stayed in the lounge.
In a while, far away in the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, the draw for the UEFA Cup Final 16 knockout round will begin. For Sporting Lisbon, it will be another random gamble that determines the fate.
In fact, the UEFA Cup is not pleasing to the teams in the four major leagues.
The pressure in the league itself is high, and the competition is cruel. Playing one more cup match and fighting in two lines virtually creates greater pressure on the team. It is not something that any team can bear.
The more important and at the same time the most critical factor is that there is no benefit to playing well in the UEFA Cup.
The prize money is small and the competition is many. Who would like this kind of competition?
Especially for those teams with many stars, playing the UEFA Cup hard and making money is not enough to issue game fees and game bonuses to players. Why bother?
So, the teams in the four major leagues, especially the top upstream teams, don\'t like the UEFA Cup at all.
This makes the UEFA Cup a bit like a rookie.
Of course, this is also relative to the Champions League.
Under this circumstance, second-tier leagues such as the Portuguese Super League, French Ligue 1, Turkey, and Eredivisie, as well as some teams in the middle and lower reaches of the four major leagues that are willing to play in the UEFA Cup, can easily stand out in this cup. The strong teams are basically He is not willing to do his best.
For example, the UEFA Cup third round knockout, which is the top 32 knockout.
As usual, the thirty-two knockout rounds consist of twenty-four second-round knockout winners, plus eight third-place players in the first stage group stage of the Champions League, including Bundesliga Schalke zero four. , Ligue 1 hegemony Lyon, Ligue 1 powerhouse Auxerre, Ukraine powerhouse Dynamo Kyiv, Premier League Liverpool and other teams.
But after the third round of the knockout round, Schalke Zero Four, Dynamo Kyiv and Lyon were all eliminated, and they basically lost to teams that were not as strong as them. For example, Lyon lost zero to one on a total score. In the case of Denizli Sports in Turkey, Schalke Zero Four was a one-to-one away game and lost to Poland\'s Krakow 4-1 at home.
This kind of nonchalant situation of strong teams has led to the teams entering the top sixteen generally closer in strength.
That is roughly in the middle of the four major leagues, only two strong teams like Lazio and Liverpool.
In this case, the giants of the second-tier leagues such as Sporting Lisbon and Porto also have the opportunity to compete for the championship. If you pay more attention to it, it may not be impossible to go further.
This is also the reason why Sporting Lisbon attaches great importance to the draw.
Draw a good draw, whether it is the UEFA Cup or the Champions League, it is very important.
……
Of course, Su Dong also attached importance to drawing lots.
But before waiting for the live draw to start, he wandered in the system store on the way to the king.
Since this season, he has continued to work hard and participated in more competitions. Not only did he fully fill up the potential value of the various attributes of the golfer\'s level, but he also basically practiced his strength to more than sixty, and his superior attributes such as speed have even exceeded. It\'s eighty.
According to Su Dong’s guess, the level of golfer is equivalent to a regional-level player, which is considered a small reputation.
And now, his strength is considered the middle and upper reaches among the stars of this level, and he is far from the top.
Su Dong found that the higher the level, the more difficult it is to upgrade later.
is not only as simple as consuming the champion value, but more importantly, it is the improvement of strength.
But the strength can only be improved through training and competition, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty.
The higher the intensity of the competition, the faster the improvement of strength.
Therefore, if you can play in the Champions League, your strength will definitely rise the fastest.
No, the UEFA Cup is barely possible, and the Portuguese Super League is relatively slow.
It takes a long process to improve the strength, but the star ability card can improve Su Dong’s competitiveness in a short time.
Before the season, Su Dong exchanged a star ability card and got Vieri\'s [Indestructible], but he still had a star ability card on hand, and he never thought about using it.
Don\'t look at the outside world\'s comprehensive evaluation of Su Dong, but in fact, Su Dong knows his mind, and he has many shortcomings.
For example, his left foot, except for a pass, played in half a season, his left foot hardly contributed.
As the game deepens, more and more teams will begin to realize the characteristics of Su Dong, they will do everything possible to restrict Su Dong, if only the right foot, then it is undoubtedly a disadvantage.
Su Dong’s shopping cart put a legendary star’s left foot ability card, Maradona’s [God\'s Left Foot].
This card did not allow Su Dong to have Maradona\'s magical left foot, because Su Dong\'s current strength has not reached that level, but it allows Su Dong to have Maradona\'s left foot skills And awareness.
After getting acquainted with many ability cards, Su Dong believed that these alone were enough to make his left foot reborn.
Especially considering that, after more than a year of hard training, Su Dong\'s left foot ability has already reached 13 o\'clock.
In addition to his left foot, Su Dong feels that he still has one ability that is slightly insufficient, and that is the judgment of where the ball will fall.
how to say?
Romario’s [Wolf in the Forbidden Zone] allowed him to capture the smell of fighters, and his insight into the situation has been greatly improved. Simply put, he has improved his ability to run without the ball.
But the problem is that he is not accurate in predicting where the ball will fall.
Don\'t think he has scored a header, but in fact, he missed more headers.
Su Dong believes that if he can improve his prediction of where to fall in football, based on his size and running ability, the header attack will be transformed, and it may even become an offensive weapon that is not inferior to his right foot.
In his shopping cart, there is also a star\'s header ability card, the German striker Klose’s [Air Overlord].
This is a star ability card newly launched after the World Cup in Korea and Japan. At first, Su Dong was more inclined to Bierhoff or Golden Bomber Klinsmann, but after the World Cup, the system was updated and a new card was introduced. Dong noticed.
In this summer\'s World Cup in Korea and Japan, Klose scored five goals, all of which came from headers, including the header hat trick that was used to wash Saudi Arabia in the World Cup.
What’s more frightening is that the German center’s height is only 1.84 meters and the weight is only 81 kilograms. In no way looks like Vieri or Adriano\'s fierce men. The reason why he can often score headers is that It comes from his accurate prediction of where to fall.
Su Dong absolutely has reason to believe that with Klose’s height, he can score so many headers. If he changes his body and running position, and has this ability to predict the landing point, how sharp is the header attack?
This is also the most tangled part of Su Dong right now.
The left foot is what he needs to strengthen, and the header is also something he can\'t bear to put aside.
Is the left foot first or the header first?
……
"Su, the lottery has begun."
Just when Su Dong was tangled, Ronnie patted him gently.
Su Dong opened his eyes and saw the live broadcast of the UEFA Cup Final 16 knockout draw.
Sixteen small **** were placed in a large glass tank, and the guests randomly drawn small **** from the lottery, took out the names of the teams inside, and fought against each other in pairs. The first ones to be drawn were the first to play at home.
Even if it\'s just the UEFA Cup, the team that can reach the top 16 is not weak.
Liverpool and Lazio and other teams are powerful, but Málaga, Anderlecht, Stuttgart and other teams are equally good, even Porto, Sporting Lisbon, Anderlecht and other teams are equally good.
From the perspective of Sporting Lisbon, the most unwilling to encounter, apart from Liverpool and Lazio, which are clearly stronger teams, the rest is Turkey\'s Besiktas.
The biggest headache for this team from Istanbul is the away game.
The voyage is more than 3,000 kilometers, which is farther than flying to Greece. It takes about ten hours to travel for a half-way transfer.
Therefore, whether it is in the Champions League or the UEFA Cup, going to Turkey to play away is a nightmare.
Sporting Lisbon has experienced a trip to Greece and knows how difficult it is to play away. Naturally, they don’t want to meet another away game in the Middle East.
Greece’s Pannazinekos was first drawn out and ran into Belgium’s Anderlecht.
Auxerre followed closely, and the Ligue 1 team unfortunately met Liverpool.
Houllier\'s team is very strong and no one wants to meet it.
Lazio was drawn to the third group duel, and the opponent he met was Krakow, who eliminated Schalke 04.
At this time, the players of Sporting Lisbon were obviously relieved.
The most reluctant to encounter, the strongest Liverpool and Lazio have been taken away, this time is cool. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
For Sporting Lisbon, even if they encounter teams such as Malaga, Stuttgart, and Celtics, they are not afraid.
With the strength of the Green Lions, they can compete with these teams.
But very quickly, as the lottery was drawn, everyone\'s hearts slowly picked up again.
The unlucky Turkish team Besiktas has yet to be drawn.
Especially after five matches of the top ten teams, of the remaining six teams, leaving aside the Porto of the same country, the four opponents that Sporting Lisbon may encounter are Besiktas.
"Aren\'t you so unlucky?" Tonyto became a little impatient.
"We just finished playing Greece and are now going to the Middle East? If you really want to take out Besiktas, I seriously protest against UEFA\'s deliberate rectification of us and let us run around and toil like this!"
The Spanish midfielder\'s words were unanimously approved by everyone.
Who said no?
In an away game against Greece, what has the team been like?
Are you still going to fight Turkey?
But things in the world are like this sometimes, the more you are afraid of something, the more he will come.
The first team drawn out in the sixth matchup was Sporting Lisbon.
Almost everyone in the lounge held their breath and watched the lucky draw guest once again sneaked into the glass jar, only four small **** were left in it.
I saw him probing his hand and grabbing a small ball randomly, opening it and taking out the note, and then turning it over, facing the live camera.
Besiktas!
There was a deathly silence in the lounge, and then there was a sound of cursing.
turned out to be a super long distance away game again!
This is definitely the rhythm of Sporting Lisbon!
In a while, far away in the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, the draw for the UEFA Cup Final 16 knockout round will begin. For Sporting Lisbon, it will be another random gamble that determines the fate.
