Chapter 309 Is this feeling very familiar?
Chapter 3 feels very familiar, isn't it?

"Hey, Peterson, a little bit to the left, hey, no, it's your left, hey hey, right, right, a little further down would be better."

"Good, good, very good, that's how it feels, great!"

"We have to hurry up, colleagues, we have to hurry up. Everyone, work hard and adjust the last few billboards. This is the first time our club has appeared in front of fans all over Europe. Don't lose yourself. face!"

Feeling that his voice was a little hoarse, Zhao Tai took a sip of water to moisten his throat.He couldn't remember how long he had slept in the past two days. He only knew that for the first round of the UEFA Cup in [-], the heads of these clubs ate and drank together, and when they were tired, they ate and drank together. He squinted on Chi's recliner for a while, and when he woke up, he had to rush over to supervise the work.

Even with the arrangement of three shifts, there are still many employees who do not get enough rest and have been gritting their teeth.

Wei Xun considers himself a humane leader, and does not want to chill the hearts of his employees.The employees who participated in the first round of the UEFA Cup to organize the surprise project will be paid three times the salary during the project work. After these two days, they can allocate two days to rest. After the first round of competition, the club will choose a A banquet was held in Wangjiang Tower to celebrate the victory.

Has Notts County played in Europe?
Even the oldest fans can't explain this question clearly. Anyway, there is not a single employee in the club with experience in organizing European competitions.

But it was a first for New Notts County, for real.

For some relevant details, Wei Xun asked Cannavaro, Guardiola, Arbeloa, Van der Sar and other veterans who had experience in intercontinental competitions, and Marotta did not have such experience.

The UEFA officials are proficient in everything, but when it comes to serious matters, they did not delay the Notts County Club. More than two hours before the game, all the players in the Meadow Lane Stadium Equipment, billboards, and live broadcast cameras have all been installed and debugged.

It was at this moment, from being eliminated by Middlesbrough to now, that Wei Xun, Zhao Tai, and Marotta breathed a sigh of relief, while Mendes was still eating and drinking with the officials from UEFA. The head and brain are all on the construction site, so he is naturally indispensable there.

It is an honor for the Notts County people to be able to participate in the intercontinental competition. For this moment, all the staff of the Notts County Club have put in a lot of effort.

In fact, the players and coaches of Notts County are not like this. They are looking forward to repaying these front-line staff who have worked hard for two days and two nights with a victory in a game.

Many people were inexplicably moved because even big bosses like Wei Xun and Zhao Tai went to the front line in person to move things, support shelves, and deliver food and water to the employees. block of bricks.

The former workers of Shengfei Group are quite familiar with this tradition. This is the corporate culture of their group, and officers and soldiers are equal, just like that.

In fact, the canteen in Notts County is also managed in this way. Except for the players and older employees, everyone in the canteen has the same food standard. The workers and cadres eat well.

……

Just like the CSKA Moscow team in the Russian Super League and the August [-] football team in our national football league, Romania also implemented a socialist system for a period of time before [-], so in their There are also military teams in the league system.

And this team is the Romanian giants Notts County will face, Steaua Bucharest.This team born in the military was also the champion of the European Champions Cup in [-], the first European champion in the history of Eastern European football.Although the distance from the glory of the past is relatively far, the lean camel is bigger than the horse, and its strength should not be underestimated.

In the original history, Steaua Bucharest met the Premier League team Southampton in the first round of this season's UEFA Cup, [-]-[-] away and [-]-[-] at home, and finally defeated the Saints to advance to the next round .

In the second round, they encountered the Premier League's powerful Red Army Liverpool.The score was the same as in the first round, but the final winner was Liverpool.

Notts County and Liverpool faced each other, and the result is also known.Therefore, the strength of the Bucharest Star team and Notts County can only be said to be on par with Notts County, and the side that underestimates the enemy will suffer a painful price after all.

This powerful Romanian league team that has produced famous players such as Haji, Perelescu, and Dorinel Monteanu in history still continues some traditions of Eastern European teams, that is, the liquidity of players is seriously insufficient. Among the lineup, almost all Romanian players.

According to the list provided by the opponent before the game, only goalkeeper Vasily holds Russian and Belarusian passports.The main central defender of Star Bucharest, Nana, although he was born in Cameroon, has also applied for a Romanian passport.

Is this feeling very familiar?
A strong smell of Athletic Bilbao hits the face.

The whole team is Basque.

It is worth mentioning that Dorinel Monteanu is in the lineup of this Steaua Bucharest team at this time. The Romanian is 35 years old and has just returned from Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga. Use your spare heat in the final stage of your career.

This person has played for Cologne and Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga. He is one of the few players in the Romanian team who have experience in the five major leagues except for Haji and Petrescu.But their life trajectories are different. Haji went out from Steaua Bucharest and finally joined Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​while Petrescu went to Chelsea, and later even went to Jiangsu and Guizhou in the Chinese Super League The team served as head coach for a while.

And Dorinel Monteanu came back here at the end of his career, but this veteran is still very strong.

Guardiola knows this. Cannavaro, Van der Sar, and Abelardo all know this. They are also old opponents in the European arena and the national team level.

"In this game, our focus is on him, Dorinel Monteanu! The opponent's No. [-] player, you must always be vigilant. Although he is not tall, his skills are very delicate and he has a strong view of the overall situation , can often send some unexpected passes, so the back line in this game must be extra careful!"

"Got it coach!"

Carvalho nodded and said yes, and Abelardo also gestured to his old teammates that there was no problem. The Italian central defender Cannavaro, who had just returned to the team from injury, was on the bench at any time. standby.

Notts County's lineup has not changed much in this game. The goalkeeper is still the Dutchman Van der Sar, and the four defenders are Fabio Grosso, Abelardo, Carvalho and Lichtsteiner.Both Lahm and Dani Alves, who have stronger offensive capabilities, are sitting on the bench, and the cup still needs to be based on defense.

There are some adjustments in the midfield. The defensive midfielder is Xavi Alonso plus full-time defensive Anthony Aiert, and the Brazilian international Ronaldinho is the midfielder.Thiago Motta, Warren Doyle, Montolivo are on call.

The three frontcourt players have not changed. They are still Cristiano Ronaldo, Drogba and Arjen Robben. Notts County's main players are all out!Franck Ribery, Miroslav Klose, Malouda, and Kurt can all play.

The defense is solid, the offense is creative, and there is a strong finishing ability. This lineup, just by looking at it, reassures Notts County fans.
