Chapter 296 Confrontation

After the final round of the league, there are four days before the Europa League final.

To some extent, the 2009-2010 season is the first Europa League tournament-because the format of this season is different from before, this is the restructured Europa League.

The team rushed to Hamburg, Germany non-stop after the league.

And their opponent, Atletico Madrid has been waiting in Hamburg for a long time.

Before the game, Flores took the initiative to mention Luton in an interview with the media.

"Luton is indeed a difficult team, but I think their players are too young and lack experience in such finals. To some extent, we are the more experienced side."

Before the game, the Spanish coach provoked a psychological war.

Since the opponent took the initiative to arrogate the fire, Gao Bo is not to be outdone.

"I've heard of Flores' results in La Liga. They are... the seventh or eighth in the league. I don’t remember a bit, but if they have more experience in the finals, I don’t know what this said It must be Mr. Flores himself or the team of Atletico Madrid, but whether it is Flores or Atletico Madrid, they probably have no final experience in the last ten years!"

Gao Bo said in front of the media, after which he smiled triumphantly.

"And we have real final experience, we won the FA Cup final!!!"

Atletico Madrid has indeed been miserable in the past ten years, with the title of Spain's third-richest club, but has been in the middle of the league for a long time. Last season was their first Europa League competition since 1997. ...

Flores, on the other side, responded to Gao Bo's counterattack immediately.

"I've heard his story. From level 4 to level 3, they will soon be promoted to the British championship. It's amazing, haha." Flores said so, but the mockery on his face was Obviously.

"I have also heard the story of Mr. Flores, from the tenth in the league to the eighth in the league, it is also quite remarkable!"

Gao Bo did not show his timidity in the media.

At this time, both sides want to fight their opponents with a war of words before the game and create a favorable atmosphere for them.

Gao Bo rarely fights with his opponents, on the one hand because his opponents in the First Division are not worth it, and opponents in the European war don't know him.

But since Flores took the initiative to provoke it, Gao Bo will definitely not let it go.

And the media likes the two coaches spitting out for so long, analyzing the speed of the battle, where is this wonderful.

.......

The team rented a training base in Hamburg and practiced behind closed doors for a few days.

These days Gao Bo does not allow the media to contact his players. It is not a good thing to expose the players to the media before the war. These days Gao Bo has a lot of scenes on the media screen.

But this does not affect the team's preparation and training.

The team's preparation opportunities are proceeding in an orderly manner.

The media are also speculating on the starting points of both sides.

The only player in this Luton player who has participated in the Europa League before this season is Sol Campbell, but Sol Campbell has not participated in the Europa League final.

Therefore, there is one thing that Flores is right, and that is that these Luton players have seen too little "big world".

At Atlético Madrid, they still have a group of very experienced players.

The first is their number one striker Diego Forlan.

The 31-year-old Uruguayan has played for Manchester United and Villarreal.

During the Manchester United era, Diego Fran failed to use the fast pace of the Premier League. The British media ridiculed Diego Fran as a "dumb" and "Manchester United's worst signing in 50 years". He arrived in Villarreal in La Liga. After that, Diego Fran shines. The Uruguayan shooter, who could not adapt to the Premier League, enjoyed himself in La Liga. He scored 25 goals in his first season in Villarreal, helping the Yellow Submarine enter the UEFA Champions League for the first time. In addition, he shared the time with Henry European Golden Boots!

After playing for three seasons in Villarreal, Diego Forlan moved to another La Liga team Atletico Madrid in the summer of 2007 to replace the departed golden boy Torres. In the 2008-2009 season, Diego Forlan made 33 magical appearances in La Liga and scored 32 goals, and won the European Golden Boot again!

This is a real super shooter! And he also has considerable experience in the Champions League.

Atletico Madrid also has a player who even participated in the Champions League final-Jose Antonio Reyes!

The Spanish midfielder played for Sevilla, Arsenal, Real Madrid, and then returned to Atletico Madrid from Real Madrid. The career resume is quite rich.

In terms of age structure, Atletico Madrid is indeed a much more mature team than Luton, and their central axis are all experienced players.

In this main lineup of Atletico Madrid, De Gea, who has gradually secured the main position of the league late this season, is the youngest player. De Gea, who is only 19 years old, is competing with another young goalkeeper, Asenjo. The main position, but De Gea has gradually demonstrated a far better talent than Asenho. In the second half of the league, De Gea's playing time even surpassed the original main goalkeeper Asenho. Not surprisingly, De Gea will soon be able to secure the position of the main force.

The other young player is Argentine genius Aguero!

Aguero, who was only 21 years old this year, transferred to Atletico Madrid in 2006 at a astronomical price of 23 million euros. It turns out that Atletico Madrid paid so much money for Aguero, who was only 17 at the time. worth it.

After joining Atletico Madrid in his second season, Aguero ranked third in the La Liga scorer list with 19 goals and won the title of the best Latin American player in La Liga in the 07-08 season. Aguero and Diego Forlan's striker combination at the time was extremely powerful in La Liga!

In addition to these two talented teenagers, Atletico Madrid's other main players are players who have worked hard in the top league for many years. Most of them are at the peak of their physical and competitive conditions. Whether it is ability or experience, they are indeed a lot smaller than Luton. Younger is much better.

"Atletico Madrid mainly relies on the midfield to control the ball and the rapid breakthrough of the two wings to create a threat!!!"

In the tactical meeting after training, Gao Bo emphasized the technical characteristics of Atletico Madrid to the players.

Although Luton sometimes plays ball-control tactics, it is a "pseudo-control" around Griezmann. Luton only uses it when dealing with opponents who have no fighting spirit or absolute strength. come out. Gao Bo does not think that Luton's possession can be compared with Atletico Madrid, a team from Spain.

So Gao Bo is determined to use Luton's best tactics to deal with Atletico Madrid.

He asked the team to maintain a close formation in the midfield and use a tough push to disrupt the rhythm of Atletico Madrid's possession!

"Don't be afraid of fouling!!"

Gao Bo emphasized.

The key to this game is the battle for the midfield!

"For each of their players who may get the ball, they must carry out a close press~lightnovelpub.net~ to force them to fight physically! Don't fight with them!! After the ball is intercepted in the midfield... ..."

Gao Bo said, drew two lines on the tactical board, pointing to two sides!

Gao Bo intends to focus his attack on the wing and use two fast assaults to attack Atletico Madrid!

Atletico Madrid has Reyes and Simao on both sides, these are players who can stir up wind and waves on the wing. And Atletico Madrid is also a team that relies heavily on side assaults. In the counterattack, Luton naturally wants to take advantage of the space behind Atletico Madrid!

But Gao Bo didn't let Adam and Griezmann go to the sidewalk with Reyes and Simao. The young Adam and Griezman might suffer a loss when facing the old gunner Reyes or Simao. But Luton does not intend to press up and play against Atletico Madrid. He is staring at the space behind the two wings of Atletico Madrid while ensuring the defense, so that the team can truly fly on both sides.

In this game, Gao Bo decided to use his cards on defense. In Gao Bo's opinion, the opponent's strength is much stronger than Juventus or Hamburg. In real history, the champion of this season is Atletico Madrid. , This had to make Gao Bo play a hundred and twenty minutes to face this opponent cautiously. ()
