Chapter 316 Conquering Hell
The game started amid deafening cheers from the Turkish fans.

Galatasaray is indeed crazy at home.Speaking of this season, Galatasaray's strength has dropped a lot.First, their meritorious coach Trim left Turkey for Fiorentina in Serie A.

Trim's influence at Galatasaray is huge.The current Galatasaray team is completely created by Trim.His departure is a big loss for Galatasaray.

It wasn't just Trim who left Galatasaray last summer, but also their top scorer Hakan Suker.Although Su Ke was rejected by George, he has no shortage of buyers.Inter Milan bought Hakan Suker at a high price.

Not only did Suk leave Galatasaray, but Hassan Sas also left Galatasaray.

In addition to them, several players have switched to other places.

Even so, Galatasaray launched round after round of offensives against the mighty Blackburn.

With the frantic support of [-] home fans and the intimidating atmosphere of the home court of hell, Galatasaray is full of courage.George knew that Galatasaray hoped to make a preemptive strike when the Blackburn players were not yet used to the away game.

Once the game is ahead, the game is easy to play.

But they were right.Although Blackburn players can be regarded as having seen the big world, Galatasaray's devil's home court is definitely not a joke.For a while, many players did not adapt to this atmosphere, and there were always various mistakes.

Galatasaray, on the other hand, completely disregarded defense.Galatasaray's style of play is very simple, that is, attack, attack, and attack.Their offense was completely disorganized, but it put a lot of pressure on Blackburn.

Blackburn is the representative team in the Premier League in possession of the ball.

In the Premier League, Blackburn's average possession time is 60.00%, which is currently the best team in the Premier League.But facing Galatasaray today, in addition to conceding goals, it is conceding goals.

George was sitting on the bench at first.However, after 5 minutes, the Blackburn players were still beaten by Galatasaray, and George frowned.Unexpectedly, after 10 minutes, the situation still has not changed.

Galatasaray fans are happy.

After losing to Blackburn in the UEFA Cup final last time, they were sad.And after Trim came out and accused Blackburn of winning the game despicably, all Galatasaray fans believed that if Blackburn hadn't used despicable means, they would not have been able to beat Galatasaray.

So seeing Galatasaray firmly pressing Blackburn to play, they were very excited to cheer for their team.

George couldn't sit still any longer.

It can be forgiven for saying that Galatasaray was passive last year.At that time, Galatasaray was really strong, and no one else noticed their strength.But this season's Galatasaray's strength has been greatly damaged, and they simply have no strength to compete with Blackburn.

George put Deco back on the field in this game.It's not because of physical strength, but after Deco went to Brazil, although he was not able to be the main force.But he still came off the bench in the second half, which already made Deco very satisfied.

After returning to the club this time, George found out.Deco's self-confidence has soared, and his enthusiasm has increased a lot.It has also become very active in offense and defense.

George believes that with the stimulation of the national team, Deco's performance will get better and better.But now Blackburn's entire midfield is terrified by Galatasaray's home terror.Was firmly suppressed by Galatasaray.

George was very angry.

Blackburn is no longer a country bumpkin who has never seen the world.Even if it can't be compared with those European giants, it has gone through many important games.What kind of stadium has not been to.

But these people were actually scared!In other words, it was overwhelmed by the terrifying home field!

Regardless of whether they could hear it or not, George stood on the sidelines and started cursing.

Some people even called names and scolded each other.Then roar!

Although the stadium was noisy, the players couldn't hear what George said.But George stood there for so long and scolded so much, they still found out.They knew George was unhappy.

In fact, at this time, they have gradually become familiar with the atmosphere of the stadium.

Galatasaray's thinking is correct.It is to use the opening stage to beat Blackburn by surprise.It's just that they didn't break through Blackburn's gate in 10 minutes of the first half. They have actually lost the most important opportunity.

Because after 10 minutes of the first half, Blackburn began to adapt to the game.

In terms of the strength of the two teams, Galatasaray, which has lost many of its main players, is no match for Blackburn at all.

Soon, Deco, who joined the Brazilian national team for the first time, stole the ball from Emre.Then he stepped forward with a long pass, and Klose in front was successfully offside.Galatasaray attacked too hard and forgot to defend.The entire defensive line moved forward, and Klose, relying on his explosive power, left all Galatasaray's defenders behind.

Then facing the goalkeeper, he easily scored the first goal of the game.

After scoring the goal, Klose raised his finger to his mouth and turned around facing the Galatasaray fans.

Seeing Klose's actions, the boos of the audience became louder and louder.

"Klose, this is Blackburn's most stable scoring point at present. With this goal, Klose has already tied the number of goals scored last season. Klose has scored 24 for Blackburn this season. Goals. There's still a third of the season left, how many goals Klose will score. It's hard to say."

"Klose has become a world-class striker, there is no doubt about it. Klose has now become one of the most comprehensive strikers in the world. Can lead, pass and shoot, such a versatile striker is in the current world football Definitely rare."

After scoring a goal, Blackburn has completely stabilized the situation.

After Blackburn stabilized, Galatasaray was completely unable to compare with Blackburn.

Just six minutes after Klose's goal, Duff scored his second goal of the game on a pass from Micoud.

"Blackburn used this performance to tell Galatasaray that winning the UEFA Cup last season is a sign of strength. Coach Trim said that Blackburn stole their championship. It is nonsense. Blackburn's strength Higher than Galatasaray is obvious."

"Galatasaray lost the UEFA Cup championship. Instead of looking for reasons from themselves, they looked for reasons from the outside. What kind of development can such a club have?"

Watching Duff's second ball, Mortensen concluded the media comments of the past few days.

Among English football commentators, Mortensen has a clear love and hate.Although the commentary is considered very professional, he has never been stingy in praising the teams he supports.So kudos to Blackburn.

And Duff's goal was not the last.

In the second half, Deco, who performed well in this game, scored a goal from the back, making the game [-]-[-].

"Three to zero, Blackburn has taken the initiative in the Champions League group stage. In another game, Bayern has won another victory. They have nine points and are the most popular team to appear. Blackburn has three games. Two wins and one loss in the game, with six points accumulated, the probability of occurrence has greatly increased.”

"As long as they beat Galatasaray at home in the next game, then Blackburn basically already has a place to qualify."

Indeed, although the current Blackburn is not as good as Bayern in terms of points, it already has the initiative to emerge.

Facing the Turkish reporter after the game, George said with disdain: "'Hell', I guess I can't go to heaven after I die, I can only go to hell. Come here today to feel it, and I found that hell is nothing more than that."

When Blackburn returned to England, the headline of the "Blackburn Evening News" read "Hell Conquered!"

…………

In February, the schedule became much easier.

In February, Blackburn had just two Champions League games, three Premier League games and a League Cup final.If Blackburn hadn't reached the League Cup final, there would have been only five games in February.Compared with December and January, it is much easier to have eight or nine games a month.

George had to scold the people who set the schedule.

In February, arrange one more game.It would be nice to have fewer games in December and January.

On February 2, Galatasaray came to Blackburn.

This is already the fourth game of the second round of the Champions League group stage.In this game, George has no burden at all, because there have been few games in the past half a month.Therefore, players can take advantage of this opportunity to take a good rest.

This game is very important, and it is related to the issue of whether the Champions League can appear.

But George did not send all the main players, because there is still an important game waiting for Blackburn.

That is February 2, and the English League Cup final is about to start.

He has already entered the finals, and it is an excuse to say that he doesn't pay attention to it.After entering the final, there is only one goal, and that is the championship.Therefore, George still made a lot of rotations in this game.It's not that George looks down on Galatasaray, but that Galatasaray's strength has indeed declined a lot.

At Blackburn's home court, Blackburn didn't even give Galatasaray a little chance.

With David Dunne's header and Bellamy's goal, Blackburn beat Galatasaray [-]-[-] at home.

So far in the second round of the Champions League group stage, Blackburn has scored nine points in three wins and one loss in four games.Bayern won four games and scored twelve points.The other two teams, they only scored one point.In this way, Blackburn has already obtained a place in advance.

"For the first time in the Champions League, George has already led the team into the quarter-finals of the Champions League. George is the youngest head coach among all the teams in the Champions League. But he led Blackburn through two group matches, Into the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Congratulations to George!"
