Chinese players in Europe

Chapter 375 Starting from Miracle

All kinds of commentary voices came from the TV, and all the Huaxia fans who were waiting in front of the TV to watch Mo Fei's first show in the Champions League all jumped up, pumping their fists excitedly and shouting loudly.

"Strong goal! Brother Fei is a pure man, a man of iron and blood! He scored a goal in the Champions League debut, and he scored his first goal in the European war! Long live Brother Fei!"

"The plane is so big and powerful! The first goal of a Chinese player in the Champions League, ha, a historic moment!"

"Could it be invincible! Could it be long live!"

Mo Fei's goal not only rejoiced the Chinese fans thousands of miles away, but also brought great joy to the Tottenham fans at the scene.Fans sang and danced in the stands, chanting Mo Fei's name over and over again.

At the beginning of the season, perhaps many fans questioned the significance of Redknapp spending a sky-high price of 3000 million euros to introduce a young player.In their view, although the opponent is the main member of the Bundesliga championship team, the Premier League is at least one level higher than the Bundesliga. Performing well in the Bundesliga may not be able to perform miraculously in the Premier League, not to mention that the opponent is still a man under 20 years old. Not even a young man, his future is full of unpredictability, this risk is too great.

But now, no one questioned Redknapp's vision, and no one questioned Mo Fei's ability.Look at Tottenham's success in the league, and see Tottenham's smooth sailing in the Champions League. Everything is brought about by this Chinese boy.Now they just want to sincerely thank two people, one is the head coach Redknapp who defied all opinions and brought Murphy to White Hart Lane, and the other is naturally Murphy who has brought earth-shaking changes to the team.

"Brave Mo, you have the speed like the wind, and you have the strength to crush all enemies. Your breakthroughs are fascinating, and your passing is intoxicating! You are victory! You are the source of our confidence! Go forward! Forward! Forward! My Mo. Forward!"

Tottenham fans were waving their arms and sang Mo Fei's "Song of Mo" loudly. Express their support and thanks to Mo Fei in this way.

Twente's coach McClaren stood on the sidelines with a gloomy expression. The game had only lasted 5 minutes, and the team was already behind by two goals, and Twente had no way out.If the fight continues like this, the only thing waiting for Twente is the bitter fruit of failure.Should we wait for failure or rise up and resist?McLaren is a smart person, so naturally he would not choose the former.He quickly made substitution adjustments, the forward Belheis was replaced, replaced by the Austrian high center No. 21 Janko, and switched to double forwards.

Although the substitution in the opening 5 minutes is likely to become the laughing stock of the fans and the media after the game, but McLaren, who has no choice, can't care so much.His intention is obvious, that is to strengthen the team's offensive strength.McLaren saw the two conceded goals very clearly. Although he was caught off guard, the more important thing was the impact and personal ability of Tottenham No. [-]. Lanzat and Jansen The teamed up interception has no effect at all.In this case, it's better to give it a go. Anyway, two goals behind, it's meaningless to defend. If you give it a try, there may be a glimmer of life.

Seeing McLaren put on a striker, Redknapp's face was not surprised but smiled.He had nothing to worry about, and a few minutes into the game, he basically had a solid idea of ​​Twente, a team that was well balanced in both defense and attack, in other words, both in attack and defense. A mediocre team that works hard and will not make any mistakes easily, but has no characteristics.Perhaps this kind of team can perform well against Eredivisie teams such as Ajax and PSV Eindhoven, but they basically have nothing to do when they encounter the stronger Tottenham.

Confrontation?Tottenham have not been afraid of anyone offensively this season, and all the teams that dared to fight against Tottenham have died long ago.How could the strongest attacking team in Europe lose to the little-known Twente?So at this point, Redknapp is not worried, and he even faintly realizes that this will be a good opportunity for Tottenham to expand the score and establish a victory.

Under the encouragement of McLaren, the Twente players recovered a little fighting spirit. After all, the game has not been long, and even if they are two goals behind, they have a chance to come back.They were not willing to be killed by their opponents at home for no reason, so they desperately wanted to regain the initiative.Helplessly, their strength is indeed not as good as Tottenham, and they are completely unfamiliar with Tottenham, and they are very uncomfortable with the continuous rhythm of Tottenham.

Throughout the first half, they were in a passive situation.

Just when he wanted to attack, he was beaten back by a series of violent offensives by Tottenham, and Tottenham's counterattack often made the defense flustered and embarrassed.Later, Twente had no choice but to recognize the fact that the threat created by Tottenham's counterattack was even greater, not to mention that the attack would not yield results.They had to choose to hide in the backcourt, just want to keep a 0:2 score until the intermission, and see how the head coach arranges and adjusts.

As for the Austrian Janko, the high center forward who was ordered in danger, he was even more miserable. Without the support of his teammates, he became a lonely ghost. Intercept on the field to stop Tottenham's offensive.And Yanke, who is 1.9 meters tall, will take half a century to turn around, and his defensive contribution is almost zero.Later, Tottenham's defensive players consciously ignored Janko, who was doing nothing. It is to put energy into active offense.

McLaren looked at this scene, his face was almost ashamed and there was no place to put it.But he is helpless, the opponent's morale is up, and he can't stop it.He has lost control of the situation on the court, and can only hope that the team can stop the opponent from scoring again, and then make deployments during the intermission, and then counterattack in the second half.

However, Tottenham obviously didn't want to just stop, and the half around Twente vented their offensive like a storm.

No.307 minutes, van der Vaart dribbled the ball through the middle, passed the defenses of Lanzat and Bajrami in a row, kicked up the penalty area line, and the football was slightly higher than the crossbar.

Two minutes later, Mofei made a pass from the wing, and Defoe leaped high to grab the first point, but his head-shaking attack was blocked by goalkeeper Boschkel with his feet.

No. 401 minutes, Tottenham made a comeback.This time, it was the defender Gallas who suddenly dribbled the ball from the backcourt, which immediately disrupted Twente's defense.After attracting enough attention, Gallas distributed the ball to Modric on the right, and Modric then made a cross, but Gallas' self-directed and self-acted attack was headed towards the stands.

In the last minute of the first half, Tottenham, who had been attacking wildly, finally received a reward.Could it be that after consecutive breakthroughs, he suddenly picked a pass in the middle of the penalty area, Van der Vaart followed up in time, and faced the goalkeeper single-handedly, Van der Vaart made a light push and shot through Boschkel's crotch, breaking both the gate and the wicket!
3: 0!

This is Van der Vaart's first goal since he joined Tottenham, and he scored it in the Champions League. Excited, he quickly ran towards Murphy, throwing off his teammates who rushed forward to congratulate him, and threw Mo Fei hugged her tightly.

"Thank you, my friend." He slapped Mo Fei's back hard, and whispered sincerely in his ear.

"You deserve it, Rafael. Your performance has been great." Mo Fei was also happy for Van der Vaart to break the "scoring drought".

"You know this goal is very important to me. I have made sure that my original choice was not wrong. I want to have a new start, and now, I have it!" Van der Vaart once again gave Mo Fei a powerful Embrace.

Could it be that he smiled, a very bright smile.The team led by three goals and scored his first goal in the Champions League. Van der Vaart broke the "scoring shortage". There is nothing more perfect than this first half. They are walking on a correct and bright path...

During the intermission, the Twente players hadn't figured out the situation. Why did they play so uncomfortable in the first half?Can't grasp the rhythm at all, and can only be led by the nose by Tottenham Hotspur for the entire 45 minutes.

This is completely unbelievable to them. Twente is also the champion of the Eredivisie. No matter how strong Tottenham is, it can't compare with Ajax, PSV Eindhoven and other Eredivisie giants, right?If it is said that the strength of Tottenham has surpassed the above two teams, they do not believe it from the bottom of their hearts. If so, Tottenham would have become popular in Europe long ago, instead of only becoming famous this season.

But the cruel reality made them have to accept the fact that Tottenham is indeed the most difficult opponent they have ever met.The two conceded goals in the opening game can be said to be negligence, but the rhythm of the subsequent game was completely controlled by the opponent, which relied on real skill.The third goal scored by van der Vaart was the product of Tottenham turning their advantage into a victory.

In the lounge, McLaren had to make adjustments and changed his tactics to defensive counterattack.In fact, he is talking nonsense. Twente has been beaten by Tottenham in the first half and can only defend half-court, and he can't even defend and counterattack.He emphasized the word counterattack. In his opinion, first of all, they must never lose the ball again, and secondly, they cannot follow the rhythm of Tottenham. Counterattack is the only way for them to turn around.

"We have to control the tempo again! Their tempo is fast, so we will be slow! When the football is under our feet, don't rush to attack, don't blindly use big kicks, use less dedicated direct passes, and slow down the tempo. slow down!"

After the start of the second half, Twente did deliberately slow down the pace of the game, but how could Tottenham give the opponent a chance to do so?A football match is a question of who masters the rhythm. Whoever masters the rhythm will win the game. On the contrary, whoever falls into the rhythm of the opponent will only end up losing.

Tottenham have already experienced this kind of tactics of the opponents in the league, and they can deal with it with ease.Once Twente tried to slow down, Tottenham's full-court press and ferocious tackles appeared.This kind of pressing is a good way to force the opponent to speed up the tempo.Under pressure, opposing players often have no time to think, and can only make choices based on their physical instincts, and when this choice is superimposed, it will become a kind of panic.When panic reaches a peak, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, and the opponent's mistakes will increase a lot.

Sure enough, driven by Tottenham's crazy press, Twente's rhythm unknowingly picked up. He couldn't take a breath if he wanted to slow down. As long as he stopped, the Tottenham players next to him would pounce on him. .In this case, Twente's defense gradually became loose, and there were many mistakes in passing between each other.
