Chapter 437 Law Enforcement Grand Slam
For this peak duel between the Premier League champions and the La Liga champions, the media has been optimistic that Notts County can finally win the cup.
It's not that everyone doesn't recognize Valencia's strength. The main reason is that Valencia's offensive core, the clown Aimar, is currently recovering from his injuries. It is difficult to appear on the final field. How can he compete with Notts County? ah!
Benitez is a recognized tactical master. His team will make corresponding arrangements when facing various opponents. Each game will have a different focus, and the starting lineup will not be the same.
But Loew is just the opposite. Although he can also understand his opponents, he is playing his own football more often, playing according to his own rhythm, and winning with a strong tactical system.
So even if the clown Aimar cannot play, Notts County will not have too many adjustments. A set of control 4231 tactics is enough for Notts County to face any strong opponent.
In fact, whether a player can play is of little significance to the outcome of a game. Even if this player is the core of the frontcourt attack, whether Aimar can play now has become the focus of everyone's attention. The outcome of this UEFA Cup final.
Some people really want to use Aimar to make a fuss. The Spanish media unanimously predicted that Aimar would appear on the final field. Their reason was that the clown had recovered from his injury and was training with the team. Benitez put him in the starting lineup.
But Benitez repeatedly claimed in an interview that Aimar would not appear in the starting list. Although he has recovered from injury, he was unable to reach the state of appearance.
I don't know who is setting the smoke bombs, but the media in England unanimously speculate that Benitez did it. He wanted to use this method to confuse Notts County. The originally designed tactics were aimed at Aimar's absence. But at the time of the game, it was discovered that Aimar had started. Didn't this make Notts County's tactical design fail!
But what Benitez didn't know was that Notts County didn't pay much attention to Aimar at all. Although his appearance or absence had a great impact on Valencia, Notts County would not be because of a Humans have specially designed a set of coping tactics, so Benitez is doomed to do useless work.
Three years have passed, and Valencia has not forgotten the pain of losing the Champions League final for two consecutive years. Among the 3 starting players in the San Siro final in 2, except for Mendieta, Angloma and Claudio Lopez who left the team and Carew was on loan, the other 2001 players are still in the team.
According to past experience, it is inevitable that the two sides will have a war of words and guns and tongues before a major event. The titans of Valencia, who have been second in ten thousand years, couldn't help the tense atmosphere and stood up to express their opinions.
This final has special significance for the 39-year-old Carbone: he will participate in 100 European club competitions, and if Valencia wins the championship, he will become the oldest player to win the two European Cups.
"People say the third time is always lucky, hopefully it's true," the veteran said passionately.
Baraja, who played the full game in the 2001 final, said: "Hopefully the failure of the two finals will not affect us. After winning the league championship, we no longer have the pressure of life and death."
"Valencia has been improving in recent years. Now we are better prepared and more experienced. This year is historic for Valencia and we will do our best to win another trophy." Albelda came off the bench in the 2001 final , has now become the new captain of Valencia.
The Valencia generals only expressed their determination to win, without any words to belittle their opponent Notts County. This is the normal rhythm, which made Notts County feel a little uncomfortable.
On the road to the championship in Notts County, one team is accompanied by controversy, or contempt. Every time you meet an opponent, no matter whether it has any meaning or not, first come and step on Notts County, as if not mocking a few words It's like losing the game, even some wealthy teams can't avoid this problem, so that Notts County has not formed friendship with many teams along the way, but it has made a lot of enemies.
There's no way, you've trampled on me, I can't show mercy!
Seeing that Valencia is so majestic, although a little uncomfortable, Notts County still responded to their opponents. During the interview, they also expressed their determination to win, and at the same time emphasized Valencia's strength. The team will dedicate a wonderful game, which can be regarded as a little praise for Valencia.
The two teams are in such a tacit understanding that the reporters will stop doing it. There are conflicts to watch, and there is no sales if there is no watch!
And this is the final of the UEFA Cup, don't you stand up and belittle your opponent to show yourself, do you have the nerve to stand in the final?
So the reporters tried their best and started to play tricks on the two teams, even if there was no news to make news.
But Valencia and Notts County are busy preparing for the battle, so they have no time to fight wits and courage with the reporters, so in the end they simply closed the training and refused to accept interviews.
The two teams have this right. There is no UEFA rule that they must be interviewed anytime and anywhere. Want news?No problem, just wait for the pre-match press conference!
The two teams in front of them can't hype any big news for the time being. The reporters simply shifted their target, and unexpectedly shifted their target to the law enforcement referee of this game.
After determining the law enforcement referee for this game, many people actually do not understand UEFA's approach.
Having enforced this game, it means that the referee will not be able to enforce the next Champions League final. The world's number one referee does not enforce the Champions League final but plays the UEFA Cup final. Isn't this nonsense!
That's right, it was the world's number one referee, the bald referee Collina, who enforced the game.
Collina's influence in refereeing circles is undoubted, and he deserves his name as the world's number one referee. Many people even think that his whistleblowing is simply a work of art.
The Olympic men's football final, the Champions Cup final, the World Cup final, and 92 international competitions. Each of these is a qualification that can be bragged for a lifetime, but all of them appear in one person.
Although everyone didn't understand UEFA's approach at first, and UEFA would not explain it publicly, but after slowly tracing the source, everyone still understood UEFA's well-intentioned efforts.
Collina is about to turn 45 years old, and there are not many opportunities to appreciate his art of law enforcement. This summer's European Championship is his last appearance in a major competition.
Instead of adding a repeat whistleblower to the Champions League final resume, it is better to enforce a UEFA Cup final, so that Collina will complete a Grand Slam!
