The Football Journey After Soul Shifting

For this game against Naples, Odense coach Bruce Rioch thought he had drawn a good sign.Instead of encountering those European powerhouses, the Naples team, which has just been promoted from Serie B, is not a bad opponent.Rioch thought.

Compared with the little-known Scoglio, Mr. Rioci has a glittering resume. This England star once coached Arsenal briefly in the 1995-1996 season. Ozzie was dismissed tragically, leaving Arsenal people with endless grief. In that season, Arsenal, who were aiming to win the championship, only ranked sixth in the Premier League.However, it was he who advocated the introduction of Dennis Bergkamp during his tenure, so that Arsenal had the best time for the Ice Prince.

In an interview with "kanta web" magazine, Bruce Rioch said: "I know Mariano Arini, he is probably the most dangerous striker on the planet, but my defender is not bad either, Aleksandar As and Kastrap are the best centre-back combination in the Danish league, they have the ability to make Mr Arini drink a jug, Odense has every chance to win this game, Odense's goal It's about keeping a draw at the San Paolo and getting at least one point."

……

At this moment, in the dressing room at the San Paolo Stadium, Scoglio is laying out the main points of the game.

"Mariano, did you see what Rioch said? Go on the field and slap him in the face. I have studied their two central defenders carefully. Alexander Ass is old and slow, moving as slow as an iceberg; as for Castellap? His turn reminds me of the mule back home in the country. Enzo (Maresca), Darillo (Giannini), Javier (Javier Mascherano), pass the ball more Behind you, Antonio, you play left, pay attention to the echo with Mariano..."

After a while of arrangement.Scoglio put away the tactical board, "Now, it's time for Naples to prove themselves to Europe, remember, we will fight for the UEFA Cup this season, let's go, let's kick their ass hard .”

Liu Wen no longer needs encouragement at this moment, his eyes have passed through the narrow player passage, looking at the noisy San Paolo Stadium outside.

……

"The game just started and Mariano was like a shadow wolf. He slammed the pass from Odense right-back Luca Rasmussen. It was a positionally sensitive tackle and Napoli got into the attacking rhythm. ..."

As soon as Biscardi's words fell, Liu Wen had already ridden away and cut into the penalty area from the left. At this time, Rioch's expression was quite exciting, as if he had just extended his hand to shake someone's hand. People turn around and leave.The mouth opened into an O shape.

On the familiar lawn of the Sao Paulo Stadium, Liu Wen's speed became faster and faster, and the old and slow Alexander Ass was thrown behind him without even touching the corner of his clothes. This extremely powerful breakthrough detonated audience.However, the Naples fans were shocked to find that their cheers were ignited by even greater ecstasy as soon as they reached their throats.

After passing Alexander Aspen, Liu Wen took a look at the goalkeeper's position.He found that Odense goalkeeper Arek Onishko (Arek Onyszko) was abandoning the goal, so he rubbed the ball lightly - the ball flew up lightly like a beautiful rainbow.Hanging over Onishko's head and crashing into the goal.

This is it?The audience was silent for a while, and the Czech referee Rubes Michel was a little unresponsive, and it took a long time to point his finger to the center circle, and the goal was valid! .

"goooooooooooal!!! Bruce Rioch must be very regretful for underestimating our Mariano. Mr. Rioch's rhetoric is still in my ears, and a rotten egg was stuffed in his mouth by our Mariano. The game has just begun In 15 seconds, when the Danes were still singing and dancing, their land had fallen across the board (Note: Germany only took an hour to conquer Denmark in World War II), and a goal took only 15 seconds , this may be the fastest goal in the history of the UEFA Cup, Naples leads 1-0! Let's cheer for our king."

"Long live!!"

Liu Wen raised his right hand high, and high-fived Flores, Giannini, and Mascherano who ran over to celebrate. The decibel level in the stands was terrifying. At this moment, many Naples fans burst into tears. Can you imagine that in just one year, Naples climbed out of the abyss of the second division and scored a goal in the first European game he participated in?

...It is no different from the humiliating experience in history. The Odense players who had just suffered a blitz looked at each other. Their head coach Bruce Rioch has been swallowing a rotten egg since the ball rolled into the net. The expression on his face didn't slow down until Naples celebrated the goal.

He had fantasized about the start of this game many times. There were games where he tested each other, and there was no winner; there were games where he won with difficulty after 10 and [-] minutes of the game; but he never expected that his team would already be behind after the game had just started. .

What about the script that was agreed to keep the balance?This is totally unscientific.

After losing the ball, the Odense players picked the football out of the gate in frustration and threw it to the center circle.Their two forwards quickly set the ball up and waited for the referee to kick off.

Rubes Michel blew the whistle and the game restarted. The defensive midfielder Jacob Rasmussen (right back Luca Rasmussen's brother) arranged by Rioci became Liu Wen's nanny, almost He followed him every step of the way.

However, compared to the efficient defense of the Greek team, Jacob Rasmussen's defense can only be said to be better than nothing.

In the 13th minute of the game, Liu Wen knocked the ball to Flores with his heel in a counterattack. After receiving the pass, the latter formed a single shot, broke into the penalty area and easily shot the ball into the lower left corner of the goal.

While the ball turned the score into 2:0, it also left Mr. Rioch stunned.

"goooooooooooal! The treasure of Naples, Antonio Flores scored a beautiful goal, Mariano's flash and mischievous performance made the goal, and now, Mr. Rioci can say Three points from the great Sao Paulo, not even one?"

Under the lens of the camera, the proud Bruce Rioch looked embarrassed. He didn't know whether he was overconfident in himself or underestimating a newly promoted team. The script he had woven before the game was given two grains by Naples. The goal was ruthlessly dismantled.Now.What to do?

The blond pervert who scored the goal jumped into Liu Wen's arms excitedly, "Beautiful pass, Mariano. This is the first European goal scored by my uncle Flores. This is my virgin ball." ! Brother Mariano, you are responsible to me."

"Sorry, I didn't hear anything."

Liu Wen let go of his hand very calmly, the blond pervert lost his support, and threw himself on the lawn with an ouch, causing the audience to burst into laughter.

……

After Naples took the lead and scored two goals, the Odense team seemed to wake up from a dream, and they were urged by Rioch.There were also sporadic counterattacks.

In the first half of the game No.208 minutes, their striker, Zambia international Mitty received a pass from midfielder Borg and successfully reversed offside, but this Zambia international who had not scored a goal in 33 national team games failed. Seizing the opportunity, his shot was weak and was easily received by Manita.

Scoglio's face was still a little serious. Just now, he saw that there was still a problem with the running-in between his two central defenders Compagni and Chiellini, and he almost turned an offside into a big gift.

"The team still needs to run in." He said to his assistant coach Kongo.Kongo nodded.He has also seen that it is not only the defense that needs to be run-in. On the forward line, there is also a problem of running-in between Mariano Arini and Ibrahimovic.In this game, these two are like two magnets that repel each other, more often they are fighting on their own.

The Odense team, which was two goals behind, fought back even more fiercely. They were eager to score an away goal at the San Paolo Stadium.this time.Naples' four-man midfielder was suppressed near the center circle by the Odense team, and even Flores, who jumped out, retreated repeatedly to defend.

However, the frenzied counterattack of the Osedon team was overwhelming.Instead, it gave Naples a better chance to counterattack.

No.307 minutes, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who has been silent all the time, throws off the right back Luca Rasmussen with a fancy fake move, and passes the ball to Liu Wen, Liu Wen passes the ball one time, one time Castelup, who was described as turning 'slower than a mule', was thrown off two positions and then passed the ball to the center.Zlatan Ibrahimovic flicked off his stride and appeared on the back post, all he had to do was flick the ball into the net.Onishko could do nothing but watch the ball go into the net.

Naples leads 3:0.

It wasn't until after the goal that the arrogant Ibrahimovic showed a smile, and Liu Wen and Flores who passed the ball to him took turns hugging and celebrating.

"Shoot!!!! goooooooal!!! A freehand shot from the Swedish genius Zlatan Ibrahimovic!! Our long-awaited Arini-Ibra link finally came to life. Odense deserves to be Andersen's hometown, Mr. Rioch, what about the promised victory?"

Biscardi's ridicule once again gave Rioci a fatal blow. The poor Englishman regrets it very much now. Why did he make wild words before the game?

The eyes of the players of the Odense team also became dull. Is the Naples team really a newly promoted team?

……

The first half is over, the score is 3:0.After the start of the second half, Naples did not relax their offense. Their offense was wave after wave. The poor Odense team was blown away like a solitary boat in a storm.

In the 15th minute of the second half, the Odense team swallowed another shot. When Liu Wen smashed Flores' cross into the net with a beautiful header, all the Odense players were quick. Senseless.

In the end, the game ended with a score of 5:1. Caleo, who came off the bench, scored a small angle shot in the 76th minute to help the team lead 5:0.Before the end of the game, the Odense team scored a consolation free kick from their midfielder Soren Borg.

In this regard, Bicardi, the on-site commentator of the Sao Paulo Stadium, said with a smile: "Salute to Mr. Rioci, the spirit of their team's repeated defeats is worth learning. After hard work, they scored a valuable away goal. "

"Learn from Odense!" All the fans shouted neatly.

After the game, Rioci, who was ashamed to death, was very professional and insisted on attending the press conference. When he was questioned by reporters, he said that he underestimated the Naples team, but he still firmly said: "Napoli in this game It was rock and roll, and we were slow, but the next game is not certain, I still believe that Odense has a chance to come back..."

After four days of recuperation, Naples went to Odense. At the adalen stadium in Odense, Naples, who played away, once again refuted Bruce Rioch's remarks. They scored a goal in the second half and 2 : 1 defeated the opponent. (to be continued..)
