Football should be played like me

Chapter 73 The Coppa Italia Needs Miracles

"Mr. Chairman, I think you need to watch this game."

In the office of the president of the Italian Football Association, the secretary reminded the president of the Italian Football Association Maltiffany.

Only when the leaders are in a hurry can they be regarded as a caring little padded jacket by the leaders.

The secretary obviously knows how to be a secretary.

Maltiffany looked at the secretary's computer.

It was a match in the second round of the Coppa Italia.

There are eight rounds of the Coppa Italia.

Serie A teams start to participate in the competition from the third round.

So the game before this is not important at all.

Many people start watching from the third round.

After all, if you don't watch football in the top league, you still watch football!
But for this second round of the cup match, it is said that there are more than a dozen media on site.

This is strange.

At this time, the camera in the computer suddenly locked on a certain player.

After receiving the ball from the wing, he didn't rush to pass the ball, because most of the passing routes were blocked by the opponent.

But he carried the opponent's defensive player for a horizontal dribble, and used two consecutive irregular Marseille maneuvers in the picture, stumbling under the pressure of the three, and controlled the football.

I have to say that this ball protection action is really ugly.

But the effect is really good.

In the end, under the tug of the other side, this young-looking player staggered to the ground.

However, the referee did not blow his whistle.

Not black whistle.

It was because the player tiptoed the football while falling forward.

You can't tell if he hit the football on the way down or if he made a deliberate pass.

But that doesn't matter anymore.

Because this pass tore through the opponent's sky and crossed the opponent's mid-line combination.

Then, the passer's partner, a 1.8-meter-eight big center, pushed the football towards the far corner of the goal under the bewildered gaze of the opponent's goalkeeper.

An easy header!
Among them, 80.00% of the credit is on the passer.

"Lu?" Maltiffany saw the name on the opponent's jersey, and then remembered something, "Is that Lu? The kid Manello always mentioned? The Chinese who played with Suotu, Lu?"

The secretary nodded.

Maltiffany's expression was inexplicable, and his eyes flickered.

Serie A is declining, this is a fact that everyone can feel.

Corresponding to this, there is also the question of the gold content of the Italian Cup.

It is also a domestic cup competition, but whether it is the FA Cup in England or the Copa del Rey in Spain, it is stronger than the Italian Cup in terms of influence.

As the chairman of the Italian Football Association this term, Maltiffany could have let it go, and it would be good not to repeat the mistakes of his predecessor.

But... Now that they have reached this position, and they are in troubled times, how can they be worthy of his restless heart if they don't make some achievements?
After all, they have come!

The Star of Italy project was established under his promotion.

And the effect is very good.

At least the younger generation of Italian fans are familiar with the young stars of their own league and region.

In their eyes, they no longer only have the proud sons of England. They also know Ceballos, the rising star of Italy in Monaco who will take off sooner or later. Lahm, I know the Italian future midfielder Morici and Lu Yang!
These young stars may not be able to play well, and they may not be as good as the young stars in countries such as England, Spain, Germany, France, and Belgium, but... at least they have the foundation to become superstars...attention!

A player without attention cannot become a star or even a superstar.

Attention does not only mean attention, but also affects a player's ability to resist pressure, spiritual pursuit, sense of honor, sense of mission and other qualities and decisions.

Without these, Wu Lei wouldn't go abroad to play football. What's wrong with being the king of football in China with peace of mind?

But without these spiritual pursuits, a player will never be world-class.

One sentence may not sound good, although Wu Lei is now reduced to the West Second Division and has also been reduced to a substitute, it seems that he has failed in Europe, but... at least he has won the respect of this year's fans.

This is the most lacking thing for national football players in this era... the respect of the fans and the respect of the fans!

Having said that, the success of Star of Italy is just a small success, a small attempt.

He proved that if you manage football with your heart, even if top stars and coaches leave temporarily, Italian football will not fall into a trough.

Just like the NBA, there are enough stories and legends to attract enough fans.

When one day you have no stories, even if you still have the best [-] stars on the planet, you can't stop the decline in ratings.

The reason why the FA Cup is more influential in Europe than the Coppa Italia is because it has more stories.

And now, Maltiffany also wants to write a legend that belongs to the Coppa Italia.

Then he...needs a legendary hero!
Looking at the entire European football world, few non-top league teams have played a good record in cup competitions.

If so, it's a miracle.

As for Sanremo, they have already reached the second round, and they have defeated a strong Serie B team that has a chance of promotion.

This means that as long as they maintain this level, they are likely to reach the fifth round.

Fifth round!
This is definitely a miracle.

After a rough screening, San Remo is really the only team that meets Maltiffany's requirements.

First of all, their team has relatively strong strength.

They are almost invincible in Serie C. Although they only suffered a dull draw recently, the score against Brescia is enough to show that they have solved their troubles.

Second, Remo has money!

Their chairman is a well-known rich man in the whole of Italy. He didn't do anything before because the team didn't deserve it.But now, in order to build the stadium and keep his name in history, the old chairman finally intends to let the team make a breakthrough.

Again, they own the giant bridge.

Their head coach Suotu and player Ratuidi are all achievements of Milan, which is the same as Maltiffany.

In fact, Maltiffany and Suotu were teammates for a period of time.

The title of Sotu Butcher was only obtained after Maltiffany, the old captain, left.

The relationship between Maltiffany and Sotu, like the relationship between Sotu and Latuydi, and the relationship between Latuydi and Sogel, is the relationship between the previous generation and the next generation.

The association has resources and gives priority to its own people. Is there a problem?
Finally, Sanremo still has a super high level of attention at present.

Especially their player named Lu Yang.

To put it bluntly, the ratings of this year's Serie C league have soared because of the existence of San Remo Lu Yang.

Don't doubt that there are not many viewers in Serie C, especially online viewers.

But Lu Yang...he has many followers all over Europe.

Although those people are most concerned about the relationship between Lu Yang and Sophia, and they don't necessarily like Lu Yang.

But this does not prevent those people from learning about some of Lu Yang's games by the way.

It can be said that Sanremo satisfied all the fantasies of Maltiffany.

At this time, on the computer screen, Lu Yang was tackled by an angry Brescia player at the last moment and got a well-positioned free kick in the frontcourt.

Although the Brescia players recovered a goal, the score of [-] to [-] still made them lose face, so someone became angry, right Arnold.

The position of this free kick is not far outside the penalty area, but less than 25 meters from the goal.

It's not the elevator ball area that Lu Yang is good at, it's a bit too close.

But because of Morici's absence, Lu Yang deservedly became the number one setter.

Lu Yang held his breath and raised his foot to shoot.

The Brescia players jumped high, and they said nothing to let San Remo score again.

Four to one is already a disgraceful score.

However, after these people took off, they all looked at their feet in horror.

Because...the football passed under their feet.

It never occurred to the goalkeeper that the football was not flying from above.

Anyone who stares at the sky and then suddenly looks closer to the ground will need a period of reaction time for the pupils to shrink and zoom. During this period, the human eye is essentially unable to see things clearly, and it will also produce a sense of dizziness.

This is the great reason why a free kick sticking to the ground can score a goal.

Lu Yang unexpectedly cut a free kick close to the ground, helping him complete a hat-trick!

At the same time, he also participated in all the goals of this game!
Three goals and two assists, became the well-deserved MVP of the game!

After the game, the current ranking of goals and assists in the Coppa Italia was also displayed on the big screen.

Lu Yang scored five goals, topping the scoring list.

Four assists, also leading the assist list.

This number of goals is already the data of the top scorer and assist king in the past several Coppa Italia.

"It's him!" Maltiffany was conquered by Lu Yang's last kick on the ground.

There are many great players, but very few smart ones.

If the league wants to support it, it needs the cooperation of the players.

Otherwise, if I praise you today, you will say that the Football Association is not good here and there tomorrow. This is not a slap in the face.

There are also those mindless players on and off the court, who eat what they shouldn’t eat, make random appointments, have special hobbies, and take part in political teams who don’t understand the fart at every turn. Many people have a bad impression of sports stars. .

On this point, Maltiffany was quite at ease with Lu Yang.

He had seen this young man being interviewed, mature and decent.

The most important thing is that old friends such as Manero and Suotu are also familiar with this young man. Just click on him to keep him within a controllable range, and cooperate with the Football Association's publicity, so that the effect can be maximized, isn't it?

"Call Manello. He has a great probability of becoming the head coach of the Italian national team in the future. He is qualified and obliged to participate in the strategy of revitalizing Italian football." Maltiffany said.

The secretary then dialed the phone and invited Manello to visit the Football Association headquarters after a while.

……

"San Remo found the answer, Lu Yang made three goals and two assists, dominating the two lists of goals and assists in the Coppa Italia! "

"The Return of the True God!He who can't play an organizational midfielder can become an unstoppable all-around midfielder! "

"From central defender to midfielder!This Serie C teenager shines in the Cup! "

"Legendary team San Remo beat Serie B strong team, how far can they go in the Coppa Italia? "

"Legend Set Sail!What he said last season, he is doing! "

"Italian Star Shining Cup, if it is gold, it will never be buried!" "

"Facing difficulties, he will never admit defeat, this is Mr. Winter's most promising young player!" "

"Cup Outlook, who will be the next team to fall at the feet of Sanremo?" "

After the second round of the Coppa Italia, there was a storm of public opinion.

For media practitioners, this is a bit abrupt.

This level of public opinion is almost the same as that of the fourth round of cup matches in the past.

Obviously, someone was blowing the wind behind his back.

But the fans don't mind, as long as you are willing to brag, the fans are willing to go and see it.

It sounds like such a passionate article, just take a look at it as a pastime.

You may not believe all of the contents inside, but at least you have a little more understanding.

In fact, there are quite a few cases of this kind of official touting.

In many cases, some small teams played a few good games and were inexplicably reported by major news.In this, there is the propaganda behind the small team, but there is also official help.

Everyone wants to see the plot of the dark horse's counterattack.

In theory, the Football Association is very willing to support the dark polo team.

It's just that these small teams can truly become dark horses, and there are very few of them in the next few rounds.

Under the widespread attention, Suotu, as the team's coach and the biggest coffee, accepted an exclusive interview with Hans, a special reporter of the PES.

Hans: There is a team whose average age is reasonable, but most of their players are young players under the age of 20 and older players over the age of 30.

They experienced a wave of injuries last season, and as many as eleven players in the team were injured and suspended for more than three games!
This season, their core players have suffered serious injuries.

But in this context, they reversed their direct competitors in the last game of last season and won the Serie D championship.They currently rank second in the Serie C standings this season and are about to stage a miracle of being promoted.

They also defeated the Serie B powerhouse Brescia in the second round of the Coppa Italia.

Today, let us take a look at Sanremo, which is "Legend is sailing"!
The guest we invited today is the famous butcher in Italian football and the current head coach of San Remo, Sotu.Hello Suotu, Sanremo has been a little bit uneasy recently, can you tell us something about it.

Sotu: Of course.Some time ago, the core of our team suffered... It almost broke us.I believe everyone can see that we struggled a lot in the next few games... But as I said, Lu Yang is an amazing player. He can not only appear in any position you need, but also complete your arrangement. any task.

After some adjustments, I think we have found the right path... We are very confident about the upcoming schedule, whether it is league or cup competition, we will try our best to do our best.

As for our goals for this season... I once told the San Remo players that the most important thing I can give them is not tactics, not playing skills, not even football concepts, but... the championship Gene!
Sanremo, with champion genes, we only play for champions!

This interview was very exciting.

All Sanremo fans are going crazy.

This is San Remo, we only play for the champions!
Similarly, this passage has also been extended to mean that Sanremo has greater ambitions in the Coppa Italia.

This made the entire Italian football scene active.

Those who recognize Suotu's spirit, because a professional player can never lose his desire for the championship, even if you are in the D-League or C-League.

Some people think that Suotu's success is rampant, but defeating Brescia with a substitute lineup is like beheading a wealthy team.

These people come and go on social platforms every day, and the battle is very unpleasant.

And these public opinions have become the heat of the Coppa Italia, making many people full of interest in this year's Coppa Italia.

The value of the Coppa Italia is slowly increasing, imperceptibly.

Maybe after the end of this season, looking back, people will find that it doesn't really matter who is the champion, what matters is that this year's Coppa Italia has so many topics and expectations, and it is so legendary!

And this is what Maltiffany wanted.
