The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 795 Tottenham Hotspur's Faith

Crazy Tottenham Hotspur!
This is an illusion created by fans and the media all over the world after the North London team took a 5-0 bloodbath at home to Manchester United, because they found that so far this season, Tottenham Hotspur have scored ten goals in the Premier League. Three consecutive victories, and the momentum is unbreakable, goals are flooding, and the defense is also very unbreakable.

But these are not surprising places. What is really shocking and weak is the diversity of football tactics and the strength of the team that Tottenham Hotspur have shown in the past dozen games. the bench depth.

According to the British Sun newspaper, there is no team in England that can stop Tottenham Hotspur, because the Manchester duo was originally the last two teams that have not been defeated by Tottenham Hotspur this season. Nam Tottenham's team, but now, these two teams have suffered humiliating defeats, which makes all fans amazed and regretful.

Perhaps, everyone has sympathy for the weak, so when Tottenham Hotspur is so strong, many fans will inevitably hope that a team can stand up, snipe Tottenham Hotspur, and prevent him from continuing. This swept English football.

But the wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

After playing against Manchester United, the No.13 round of the Premier League is scheduled to be held in the middle of the week. Tottenham Hotspur welcomes the London team Fulham again. Still defeated Fulham 2:1 in the away game without any risk, and won another victory.

Three days later, Tottenham Hotspur retreated from the away game 3:1 in an away game against the black cats Sunderland.

In this battle, Manchester City drew 1:1 away at Southampton, Chelsea lost 2:3 away at Stoke City, Arsenal tied Everton 1:1 at home, Manchester City lost 0:1 at home to Newcastle, only Liverpool , 4:1 at home to beat West Ham United.

Judging from this round of competition, Tottenham Hotspur has undoubtedly once again established itself as the leader of the Premier League. The impressive record of [-] consecutive victories, especially the amazing attack power and unbreakable defense, have made Tottenham All competitors are desperate, and it also makes everyone soberly aware that this season's Premier League will be Tottenham Hotspur's personal one-man show.

After Mourinho was unexpectedly upset by Stoke City in the away game, he said with regret, "There will be no team this season that can shake the foundation of Tottenham Hotspur's championship, because this team is too strong. !"

"Before the start of the league, everything has been doomed. The Premier League championship has never been in suspense. It only belongs to Tottenham Hotspur, while the other 2 teams are fighting desperately to compete for No.[-]. That's all. That's all!"

At the same time, Mourinho also mentioned that the fighting power of Tottenham Hotspur players this season is astonishing, "We all have to admit that this is Ye Qiu's last season. His players, his team, naturally hope to give him a decent ending!"

Compared to Mourinho's public admission that there is no hope of winning the championship, Liverpool's Benitez said that Tottenham Hotspur is indeed the favorite to win the championship, but it has not yet reached the situation where it can win the championship early, because everything is still there. Accidents can happen.

"Tottenham Hotspur has indeed reached a very amazing height this season. They have a super overall combat effectiveness, and at the same time have a strong substitute lineup and bench thickness, so they can play their own level on multiple fronts, but Just like in the past few seasons, Tottenham Hotspur's multi-line play may eventually cause them to be distracted and finally frustrated on certain fronts, such as the Premier League!"

"Winning the Premier League for five consecutive seasons, I believe that Tottenham Hotspur's players will feel somewhat slack in their hearts. Now that they are far ahead, this slack mentality will be more obvious, and these are opportunities for us to reverse and hope!"

When Mauro Tassotti attended the press conference instead of Ye Qiu, he refuted Benitez's remarks. He believed that the team was united as one, and no one would slack off in any game. They all have only one idea, and that is to win every game.

This is the belief of Tottenham Hotspur!
Not only Mauro Tassotti, team captain Thiago Silva also said in an interview with the media that the team will not be complacent, "I want to say that this is a different season, because After this season, the person we respect the most will leave us, so we can only bid him farewell in the best possible way."

The superstar in the team is also the most eye-catching star in the whole year of 2013. Franck Ribery also expressed emotionally in an interview with the media that he hopes to draw a perfect picture for Ye Qiu's last season with his hard work. full stop.

"This is a joint decision of all of us in the locker room!"

In an interview with French Football Magazine, Messi also said that he supported Ribery for this year's FIFA Ballon d'Or. At the same time, he also appealed to all his teammates. Nam Tottenham pushed to the top.

Tottenham Hotspur's united attitude, as well as the atmosphere within the team, coupled with the coaching staff also consciously strengthen the protection and vigilance of the players in this regard, so the team appears to be very stable.

In the middle of the week, in the final round of the Champions League group stage, Tottenham Hotspur ushered in Shakhtar Donetsk at home.

Tottenham Hotspur, who had already qualified first in the group, met Shakhtar Donetsk, who had to fight hard to qualify for the group. The two sides played in full swing at the Stratford Stadium, which was very tragic.

In this game, Ye Qiu arranged for all substitutes to play, but in the No.707 minute of the second half, with a shot from Phil Jones, Tottenham Hotspur defeated Shakhtar Donetsk 1-0 at home. The team won six consecutive victories in the group, and also sent Lucescu's Shakhtar Donetsk to the Europa League.

Assisting Phil Jones was the young teenager Januzaj. In addition, Tottenham Hotspur also arranged for two young teenagers to come off the bench in this game. The 17-year-old Belgian teenager Andreas Pere La and the talented 17-year-old French striker Neil Maupay, but neither player showed much attention.

Ended all the games in the Champions League group stage, Tottenham Hotspur qualified first, while Leverkusen defeated Shakhtar Donetsk and qualified as No.2 in the group. Shakhtar Donetsk could only qualify. Unlucky to play in the Europa League, Real Sociedad was eliminated from European competitions.

For a time, the German media has gone from criticizing Tottenham Hotspur to now singing praises, which fully reflects the integrity that media people do not have at all, because Tottenham Hotspur only does one thing from beginning to end, that is Just play every game well.

In terms of strength, Leverkusen is indeed inferior to Shakhtar Donetsk, Ye Qiu is very sure of this.

Unlike Tottenham Hotspur, Benitez's Liverpool had to slam against Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga in the last round in order to qualify for the top spot in the group. Although Liverpool finally defeated Bayern Munich in the away game, But according to the ranking rules of the Champions League group stage, Liverpool finally fell to second in the group.

Benitez also feels helpless for this, because his team can score more goals. Guardiola's Bayern Munich this season is not as strong as last season, especially after two consecutive seasons. Into the Champions League final, but after the embarrassment of two seasons with no results, it dealt a great blow to morale.

But it was also because of this deadlock that after returning to the Premier League, when Liverpool challenged Tottenham Hotspur in an away game, they once again hated Stratford Stadium. Messi scored for Tottenham Hotspur. The only goal of the game.

After this round of the Premier League, the Tottenham Hotspur team set off to Morocco, Africa, to participate in the Club World Cup.

…………

…………

This year's Club World Cup has an eye-catching feature, that is, in the second round of the qualifying round, there were two upsets, which led to the advancement of two dark polo teams, one is the AFC Champions Guangzhou Evergrande, The other is Morocco's local team Casablanca Karaja.

According to the semi-final draw ceremony, Tottenham Hotspur's opponent is the Moroccan local team Casablanca Raja.

Tottenham Hotspur arrived in Morocco two days earlier, dragging their tired bodies, because for the Premier League giants, playing such a game really does not have much gold content. Their strongest enemy does not come from the field, but from For jet lag and fatigue.

In the past, the biggest highlight of the Toyota Cup was the South American champion against the European champion, but the problem is that with the influx of more and more young South American players to Europe in recent years, the level of European teams and football is getting higher and higher. However, the level of football in South America has gradually declined, and it looks more like a nursing home.

Not only the difference in player quality, but at the tactical level, South American teams still maintain the traditional characteristics of the past, but the current tactical level in Europe has been raised to a new height, which makes the football competition between the two regions Power is actually not on the same level anymore.

Therefore, almost everyone feels that Tottenham Hotspur's trip to the Club World Cup is more like a training trip. After all, no one would believe that Tottenham Hotspur, who are invincible in the Premier League and the Champions League, will lose to these teams.

The organizing committee was very thoughtful in the arrangements. From the arrival in Morocco to the hotel, there was no harassment along the way. After the team checked in, the first thing they did was to sleep, and they didn’t get up until near noon the next day. , because it was early morning when they arrived.

Under the 24-hour guard of more than a hundred security personnel, Tottenham Hotspur enjoyed super-high standard treatment in Morocco. According to a senior government official in Morocco, I hope Tottenham Hotspur can play against Casablanca Raja in the game. Show mercy.

This is a joking statement that no one would take seriously.

In the semi-finals, Tottenham Hotspur defeated Casablanca Raja 2-0 with a half-main and half-substitute lineup.

Everyone can see that Tottenham Hotspur did not give their best, but the Moroccan fans are still crazy about this Premier League giant. Almost every training session is crowded with people outside, and all the fans are just to see The demeanor of Tottenham Hotspur, even in this capable game, there are more fans cheering for Tottenham Hotspur than Casablanca Laja at home.

In another game, Guangzhou Evergrande was upset again, beating Ronaldinho's Atlético Mineiro in Brazil 3:2, and successfully advanced to the final. This immediately aroused huge repercussions in China. The fans are cheering and cheering, because in the eyes of many people, Tottenham Hotspur is also a Chinese team.

For a while, countless Chinese fans were cheering, and even some diehard fans of Guangzhou Evergrande believed that the team they supported had the hope of being upset, after all, they had the world's top coach Lippi.

Ye Qiu spoke very highly of this Tottenham Hotspur partner's ability to reach the final.

"Since I came to Morocco, I have been studying Guangzhou Evergrande's game video. Lippi is very good at defeating the strong with the weak. I am very familiar with him, so I know that I always have to be very careful when facing him, because he is very strong. Very dangerous, he is a very cunning and skilled hunter!"

After a pause, Ye Qiu chuckled again: "But unfortunately, we Tottenham Hotspur are not the prey!"

Although in private, Ye Qiu is very dissatisfied with the schedule of the Club World Cup, because in order to participate in the Club World Cup, Tottenham Hotspur missed a League Cup and a league game, which caused Tottenham Hotspur to take a winter break After the period, the schedule had to be shortened, and this cup match didn't make much sense in Ye Qiu's view.

But in an interview, he still praised the Club World Cup in a very high-sounding way, almost describing it as an intercontinental event of great significance, and even described the difficulty of winning this event as almost enough It is comparable to the Champions League, especially when it comes to the special protection and care of Tottenham Hotspur by the organizing committee, Ye Qiu is very grateful.

Similarly, Lippi said in an interview that Tottenham Hotspur is the most powerful team in football today.

"Tomorrow's game will definitely not be easy, because our opponent is Tottenham Hotspur!"

Lippi said that facing Tottenham Hotspur, it is unrealistic for any team to talk about offense, especially for Guangzhou Evergrande. Tottenham Hotspur's offense, and then wait patiently for the opportunity.

"The result of every game is that the strong side wins, but it will definitely leave hope and opportunities for the weak, so we must maintain a winning heart, don't have any pressure, and play at the level we usually practice. Will suffice!"

And this time Lippi also showed his motivational side before the game. He encouraged the players in the locker room before the game, saying that the players should take advantage of the opportunity to play against a powerful team like Tottenham Hotspur to make the whole world feel better. The world remembers his name.

Sure enough, from the beginning of the game, Guangzhou Evergrande showed their tenacious fighting spirit. They were very well-organized in defense, almost retreating across the board, and every player seemed to be high-spirited, and they retreated tenaciously to the end of the game. Everyone within the 30-meter area of ​​their own side showed a bloody spirit to defend the goal to the death.

Tottenham Hotspur played very confidently and calmly from the very beginning. Ye Qiu arranged for Pirlo to start this game. His midfield partners Ramsey and Pogba are both players with excellent ball control ability. , So Tottenham Hotspur naturally controlled the midfield, and the defense even advanced to Guangzhou Evergrande's half.

The game was one-sided, and everyone was not surprised by this situation. It would be strange if it wasn't one-sided, so Ye Qiu and Lippi looked very calm and calm, and there was even a scene where they looked at each other and smiled .

But Guangzhou Evergrande is still inferior to others after all. After half an hour of entanglement, Evergrande’s physical fitness declined sharply. Tottenham Hotspur completely controlled the advantage on the field. Going to fight for the top from the right, Messi dribbled the ball in and then passed it diagonally to the left. Franck Ribery volleyed from a small angle and scored, 1:0!

After the goal, Tottenham Hotspur adopted aggressive tactics as always, and Lippi kept kicking the ball on the sidelines. Be careful, but unfortunately, after 4 minutes, Messi cut in from the right and passed consecutively. After the opponent's three defensive players, they pushed and scored in the penalty area, 2:0!

After scoring two goals in a row, Tottenham Hotspur had the momentum to take advantage of the victory. Kyle Walker made a pass from the right. Score, 3:0!

In less than 10 minutes, three goals in a row, which made all fans enjoy watching, but at the same time feel a pity, because the strength gap between Guangzhou Evergrande and the opponent is still too big after all, so big that it is already difficult It made up for it with tenacious fighting spirit.

In the second half, Lippi also made substitutions and adjustments to strengthen the team's defense. Tottenham Hotspur began to save some energy. Ye Qiu also used up three substitutions early and replaced him. Including Ribery, Messi and Lewandowski, the three major arrow figures.

But in a defensive foul in the front court, Tottenham Hotspur seized the opportunity again. Pirlo scored a direct free kick and locked the score at 4:0 for Tottenham Hotspur!

Afterwards, Tottenham Hotspur relaxed their offensive. Instead of being aggressive, they adopted a slow-paced approach and used up the rest of the game. Obviously, they wanted to save some face for Guangzhou Evergrande. After all, this was also Ye Qiu. Home country team.

In the end, Tottenham Hotspur defeated Guangzhou Evergrande 4:0 and won the Club World Cup!
After the game, Ye Qiu first went over to chat with Lippi for a while, and then when he was interviewed by the media, he spoke highly of Lippi and Guangzhou Evergrande, and at the same time affirmed the strength and progress of Guangzhou Evergrande. A game can make more people soberly aware of the gap between the domestic football level and the top European football level.

"Football has no shortcuts. It has to be done step by step, step by step. I hope that the details and various gaps presented in this game can better make domestic football players soberly position themselves!"

"Because only when you know yourself soberly can you know how to go in the future!"
