Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 416 The Good Days Are Over
Alvarez is now in charge at Sevilla after Juande Ramos was poached by Tottenham Hotspur.

Although this coach has not won any decent championship trophy, but facing the thriving Crystal Palace, he has no intention of putting on a bus at all, and still sends out his usual starting lineup.

Forward Negredo, Forward Canoute
Left Midfielder Navas, Central Midfielder Duscher, Central Midfielder Zokola, Right Midfielder Acosta
Left back Adriano, center back Squillac, center back Escuder, right back Dragutinovic

goalkeeper palop

On the Crystal Palace side, they had just played a fierce battle with Liverpool, and the players' physical energy was exhausted.In that game, Chen Ran put all the players who played the whole court on the bench.

Forward Suarez, Forward Cavani
Left Midfielder Ribery, Central Midfielder Mascherano, Central Midfielder Modric, Right Midfielder Messi

Left back Evra, center back Thiago Silva, center back Pepe, right back Maicon

goalkeeper cech
Because the two teams played unconservatively, you come and go at a fast pace, which makes the fans hooked.

When the game progressed to No. 207 minutes, Ribery broke through the opponent's right back Dragutinovic's defense on the left and sent the ball into Sevilla's penalty area.

In the middle, the tall Cavani attracted the attention of the opposing central defenders Squillac and Escuder.

Suarez took the opportunity to get to the front point, and a lion shook his head and headed the ball towards Sevilla's goal.

The goalkeeper Palop reacted a step slower, and when he stretched out his hand, the ball had already flown into Sevilla's net.

"GOAL!!!!!!"

With Suarez's goal, Crystal Palace lead Sevilla 1-0 away.

Seeing the Crystal Palace goal, Alvarez was quite calm.He stood motionless on the sidelines, without any intention of adjusting Sevilla's tactics.

It is rare to meet such a considerate coach, and Crystal Palace will naturally not be polite.

At the end of the first half of the game, Messi on the right first passed Sevilla's left-back Adriano through the crotch, and then dribbled the ball directly into the opponent's penalty area.

Realizing that the situation was not good, Sevilla's midfielder Zokola rushed over to defend.

Seeing Zokola's action, Messi played a false shot and made a real buckle, shaking Zokola over at once.

Then Messi looked up at Sevilla's goal. Just when everyone thought he was going to hit the goal, Messi passed the ball into an inverted triangle.

At this time, Zokola, who was originally responsible for marking Modric in the midfielder position, was out of position.Seeing the ball rolling towards him, Modric happily accepted it, rushed up to meet the ball and volleyed.

"boom!"

The ball flew directly to the upper right corner of the Sevilla goal like a cannonball.

Goalkeeper Palop flew up immediately, but Modric's shooting angle was tricky. He tried his best but failed to touch the ball. In the end, he could only watch the ball fly into the net from in front of his eyes.

"GOAL!!!!!!"

With Modric's long-range goal, Crystal Palace led Sevilla 2-0 away.

This time, Alvarez couldn't hold his breath any longer, and kicked the mineral water bottle on the ground.

During the intermission, seeing that the game was going well, Chen Ran didn't need to send the main players in addition to giving the players blood as usual.

On the Sevilla side, Alvarez Fabiano replaced Kanoute, and the forward changed forward. Obviously he still wants to continue to strengthen the offense.

The second half of the game basically copied the trend of the first half. When the game progressed to No. 60 two minutes, Cavani received a free kick from Modric and smashed the ball into Sevilla's goal. goal.

"GOAL!!!!!!"

With this header from Cavani, Crystal Palace lead Sevilla 3-0 away.

As soon as the third goal was scored, Sevilla was immediately discouraged.

No matter how Alvarez deploys his troops, the players on the field are no longer motivated.

In the end, with goals from Suarez, Modric and Cavani, Crystal Palace beat Sevilla 3-0 away.

While winning the first UEFA Champions League group match of the new season, Chen Ran also got a "Level [-] Recovery Card" from the system.

After the match against Sevilla, Chen Ran flew back to London overnight with Crystal Palace.

There is no way, two days later, Crystal Palace will play Sunderland in the sixth round of the Premier League.

For this game, Chen Ran once again rotated the starting lineup.

In order to cope with the dense schedule, he now splits the Crystal Palace's main lineup in two.

Half of the main players and some substitute players can form two sets of lineups whose strength has declined, but whose combat effectiveness can still be maintained at a relatively high level.It is enough to deal with those opponents who are not very strong.

If you encounter a strong opponent, then combine the two lineups into one and concentrate on fighting the battle of annihilation.

In this way, while reducing the physical consumption of the main players, it also ensures that the performance of the Crystal Palace will not decline as much as possible, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Chen Ran's starting lineup for the game against Sunderland was arranged according to this plan.The effect is not bad, with the goals of Tony and Cesc Fabregas, Crystal Palace beat Sunderland 2:1 at the Emirates Stadium.

While getting three points, Chen Ran also got a "One Sight Card" from the system.

而在本轮英超联赛的其他比赛里，切尔西在斯坦福桥3：0大胜托特纳姆热刺，利物浦在客场3：2力克西汉姆联队，阿森纳在主场4：0大胜维冈竞技。

Manchester United and Manchester City staged an exciting cross-city derby. The two teams played sparks and scored a total of seven goals.

In the end, Manchester United narrowly beat Manchester City 4-3 at Old Trafford with Berbatov's extra-terrestrial lore in stoppage time.

Although they won the derby, anyone with a discerning eye can see that after the Abu Dhabi consortium invested heavily for two consecutive seasons, the current strength of the Manchester City club has seriously threatened Manchester United, a veteran club.

The city of Manchester is probably about to change.

After the game, the losing Manchester City club was not so frustrated, but more unconvinced and wanted to play for another half an hour; while the winning Manchester United club was not so happy, but more worried.

After the end of the sixth round, Crystal Palace ranked first in the standings with five wins and one tie, accumulating [-] points, and Chelsea ranked second with the same points.

And Manchester United has also quietly climbed to third place in the standings with [-] wins and [-] loss, accumulating [-] points.

After playing against Sunderland, Crystal Palace have three days to rest.

On September 9, they ushered in the third round of the English League Cup.This time, Crystal Palace is going to challenge Barnsley away.

According to Chen Ran's habit, he sent a full substitute lineup to play in this game, and handed over the command of the game to Southgate.

Facing Barnsley, a low-level team, although Crystal Palace did not send any main players, with goals from Dzeko, Vardy, Suarez and Beckham, Crystal Palace still beat their opponents 4-0 in the away game .

While successfully advancing to the fourth round of the League Cup, Chen Ran also received a "Level [-] Recovery Card" from the system.

Two days later, on September 9, Crystal Palace ushered in the seventh round of the Premier League.This time, they are going away to Tottenham Hotspur.

After the rotation of the League Cup, the main players of Crystal Palace have all got a certain rest.However, since Crystal Palace will play the UEFA Champions League group stage three days later, Chen Ran still sent a half-main and half-substitute starting lineup for this game.

Tottenham Hotspur can be considered a strong team in the Premier League. Although they have never been able to win the championship, they can often qualify for the European War. It is not easy for anyone to win him.

The same is true for Crystal Palace, which played half of the main force. When the game reached 10 minutes, the score on the field was still deadlocked at 0:0.

Seeing this situation, Chen Ran had no choice but to replace Xuezang's offensive core.

In the end, with Ronaldo's long-range goal in stoppage time, Crystal Palace barely beat Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 in the away game.

While scoring the key three points, Chen Ran also got a "Level [-] Recovery Card" from the system.

In the other games of this round of the Premier League, Chelsea beat Wigan Athletic 3:1 away, and Manchester United also beat Stoke City 2:0 away.

利物浦在安菲尔德6：1狂胜赫尔城，曼城在主场3：1战胜西汉姆联队，阿森纳则在客场1：0小胜富勒姆。

Several strong teams have all won, and the standings are still in a mess without widening the gap, and the situation is chaotic.

After the game against Tottenham Hotspur, Crystal Palace only rested for three days before ushering in the second round of the UEFA Champions League group stage.

This time, they will sit at the Emirates Stadium against Stuttgart.

This game is the penultimate game of the devil's schedule at this stage.

Crystal Palace has already played five games with a frequency of one game in three days. Although Chen Ran tried his best to allocate the physical fitness of the players, judging from the physical examination reports after each game, most of the Crystal Palace players are now at the end of their strength. state.

In order to avoid injuries, Chen Ran had no choice but to refer to the physical examination report again to arrange the starting list.

Cavani

Left midfielder Ribery, midfielder Kaka, right midfielder Vardy
DM Mascherano, DM Beckham
Left back Evra, center back Kompany, center back Thiago Silva, right back Alves

In Stuttgart, the Swiss head coach Christian Gross is very pragmatic.Coming to London to challenge Crystal Palace, he directly formed a starting lineup for defensive counterattacks.

Forward Cacau, Forward Gomez

Central Midfielder Khedira, Central Midfielder Hleb, Central Midfielder Kuzmanovic

Left back Molinaro, center back Tashche, center back Del Pierre, center back Boulahrouz, right back Osorio
goalkeeper leyman
From the first minute of the game, it entered a state of half-court offensive and defensive drills.

Christian Gross was determined to place the bus. In addition to leaving a center Gomez in the frontcourt, Stuttgart even left another forward Cacau back to the center line to assist in the defense.

Chen Ran, who had seen this kind of scene many times, was naturally not in a hurry. He sat on the bench for a full 45 minutes without going to the sidelines to direct the game.

Deciphering the bus swing tactic is a worldwide problem, especially when the opponent is physically fit.

Until the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, Crystal Palace still failed to break the tortoise shell of Stuttgart.

During the intermission, Chen Ran turned his attention to Cavani and Vardy after giving the players blood as usual.

"Edinson, Jamie, how about the two of you going down for a rest in the second half of the game?"

"No problem, boss."

"Okay, boss."

Chen Ran nodded slightly, then looked at Ronaldo and Messi.

"Chris, Leo, you two replaced Edinson and Jamie in the second half of the game."

"Chris is going to play center forward, but you don't stay in Stuttgart's penalty area, you have to keep coming out to cooperate with your teammates, attract the Stuttgart defender who is responsible for marking you, and create opportunities for others to insert later, understand? "

"Understood, boss." Ronaldo replied sonorously.

"Leo, you and Frank must always pay attention to the movements of the Stuttgart defenders. Once you find that they are attracted by Chris, you must immediately insert into the gap left by the other party, understand?"

After explaining Ronaldo, Chen Ran mentioned Messi and Ribery.

"Okay, boss."

"Got it, boss."

"Ricardo, I will leave the task of organizing the attack to you. You just need to remember one thing, you will pass to whichever side is open, understand?" Chen Ran finally looked at Kaka.

"Understood, boss."

While Chen Ran was making substitution adjustments for Crystal Palace, at Stuttgart, head coach Christian Gross was obviously very satisfied with the score of 0:0.

Apart from encouraging players to continue playing as in the first half of the game, he did not make substitution adjustments.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, the situation changed suddenly.

With Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi's Crystal Palace on, the offensive threat has greatly increased.

In particular, Chen Ran asked Ronaldo to keep coming in and out of Stuttgart's penalty area, which immediately disrupted Stuttgart's defensive deployment.

The three central defenders used by Christian Gross in this game, Del Pierre is 195cm tall, Tashche is 187cm tall, only Boulahrouz is slightly shorter, but also has 184cm.

These players have no problems with frontal defense and high-altitude ball defense. In the first half of the game, they defended Cavani so badly.

But now that Ronaldo is here, their good days are coming to an end.
