Chapter 641 Juan Wuhong Goes Further

In this way, Chen Jian and his two children started a one-year training career in the youth training camp of Nottingham Forest Club.What they can learn from this kind of training is very interesting, but after all, it will not be known until a year later.
North Wellford suddenly became lively, and a set-up team of Hunan TV station has been following the filming. They will produce five episodes of the program to reflect the daily life and training of these three lucky people in Nottingham, England to domestic TV audiences.This is a very popular entertainment program in foreign countries - reality show.
After a month of shooting, they leave.In a few days, no one will pay attention to them anymore, because it is okay to watch five episodes of repeated life, but it is unbearable to watch one year in a row...
At that time, the number of media going to North Wilford will quickly decrease to the previous situation. Except for the local media in Nottingham, no one from other places will come here to pay attention to the three Chinese.Tang En's original intention was the same. He couldn't stop the enthusiasm of the Chinese media that rushed to report on these three people at the beginning, but he could use many indifferent means to pour cold water on these people and let their enthusiasm cool down quickly.Next, give these teenagers a quiet environment.
In fact, Tang En is quite looking forward to what Chen Jian will be able to practice in a year's time...
※ ※ ※
The three Chinese visitors made the Nottingham Forest Club lively for quite a while. Since Twain had to lead the team to train and play games, Alan Adams had cooperated with the Chinese side long before that, so he had the most contact with the Chinese media. Nottingham Forest Club took this opportunity to expand its influence in China.At this time, Allen and Evan began to seriously consider their plans to visit China next summer...
After all, the contract between Beckham and the forest team is only two years, and it is necessary to step up the development of the market while he is still in the forest team and make full use of his commercial appeal.Otherwise, as soon as the two-year contract expires, wouldn't he sign him for two years for nothing if he leaves for the United States?
Tang En signed Beckham considering his competitive value, while Allen considered his commercial value, which can be regarded as "seeking his own affairs in his place"...
※ ※ ※
When the three Chinese football teenagers were still in Nottingham and began to adapt with difficulty, Tang En, who came to the UK five years earlier than them, brought the team to Milan, Italy.
He thought his team would be bombarded by the Italian media.
Unexpectedly, the media who came to the airport to pick him up were all British, and there were very few Italian media. Except for one "Gazzetta dello Sport", there was no other Italian media, and naturally there was no TV station.
Tang En understood it as soon as he rolled his eyes, and he smiled.
Just in time, I was still worried that I would not have a stable time before the game, but now I am fine.The host Italians are really considerate...
The English media rushed forward, and Twain waved his hand: "I don't accept too many interviews before the game. If there are any questions, I will bring them up at the press conference..."
The reporter of "Gazzetta dello Sport" didn't care so much. He shouted in English: "The game against AC Milan is almost guaranteed to win, sir!"
Tang En pretended not to hear and left.Some Forest players were stopped by the media for brief interviews, including the Italian reporter.
He found Grosso, who was also Italian.
Grosso has gradually lost his main position in the current Forest team.Twain was dissatisfied with his inability to adapt to the rhythm of the English league, but in games like the Champions Cup, his experience could still help the team.Especially when the Italian team played against AC Milan - he had played for Inter Milan for a season, and he was no stranger to the rivals in the same city - so he was brought to Milan by Twain.
The Italian reporter went up to get close to Grosso and asked some unnutritious questions like whether you can play in tomorrow's game.
Grosso shook his head honestly: "The coach hasn't announced the starting list yet, I don't know if I can start..."
"Life in England seems to be unsatisfactory?" As if chatting, the reporter asked.
Grosso is also a star after all, and he still has some experience in dealing with the media.He became alarmed when he heard the question.
In any case, he is now a Nottingham Forest player, so he has to speak from the standpoint of Nottingham Forest.His current position in the Forest team is indeed not stable. On the one hand, he does not adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League.
But he couldn't honestly nod and say yes. In that case, his "yes" might turn into "the general of the team is dissatisfied with Tony Twain and wants to get the main position".
Grosso is not stupid, he really wants to get a stable position, but now he doesn't want to let himself be used by the media...
"It's okay, everything's okay." Grosso prevaricated.
The Italian reporter was obviously not reconciled, and continued to ask: "It's okay, does it mean that there are still disadvantages?"
"That's fine, everything is fine."
After getting along with Tang En for a period of time, people who are smarter will be able to learn a little bit of his accent, which is really suitable for dealing with the media.
Grosso just didn't give the other party a chance to take advantage of the loopholes, so saying, and then found a very suitable reason to bid farewell to this malicious reporter.
"It's time to get on the bus." He pointed to the front exit. Assistant coach David Chrislake stood at the door with a red bus parked behind him.

The Italian reporter nodded helplessly.He still hasn't pried anything valuable out of Grosso's mouth... If you can't even get a bargain from your compatriots, then from Tony Twain...
He scratched his head, it seemed that his question was ignored without saying a word, which was considered a relatively good treatment.
※ ※ ※
At the press conference before the match, Twain finally met those Italian reporters. If they didn't come, they would have nothing to report. The media boss would not let them do such nonsense.
Twain didn't make any radical remarks at the press conference, his words seemed normal - he briefly commented on their opponents, admitted that it was not a good thing to be tied at home, but he didn't think the Forest team would just let it go Say goodbye to this season's Champions League competition.
There is no smell of gunpowder, and the smile on his face even makes people feel that the grievances between him and the Italian media have long been written off.
The atmosphere of the press conference was very harmonious and friendly.He and Ancelotti met and had a handshake.The media wanted to play up the grievances between the two teams, and the title of "life and death battle" was well thought out, but it was useless.Neither coach seemed to care much about the media's interference with the game.
"They want to irritate me and lose my cool, so I won't be fooled." After coming down, Tang En said to Tang.
Yes, can't lose your cool.
Nottingham Forest's coaching staff has already arranged tactics to deal with AC Milan.
From the analysis of the current situation, AC Milan, who played 0:0 in the away game, will definitely choose to attack at home, but not all of them are top-down attacks. Ancelotti will not be so foolish to gamble.But he will attack that's for sure.That's what Nottingham Forest need to take advantage of.
Everyone knows what Nottingham Forest is best at - defensive counterattack.
In the away game, at the famous San Siro Stadium, does Nottingham Forest dare to bombard AC Milan's restricted area like at home?
With Tony Twain's conservative style, he will definitely let the team play a firm defensive counterattack and wait for opportunities to attack on the basis of a solid defense.
Anyone who has studied the Forest team over the past few years will think so.
So Tang En chose not to do that.
He let the team continue to attack wildly in the away game, strive for the first goal, and the next step is... in his hands.
"The combined age of their defensive players is almost two hundred years old. Ancelotti likes to believe in the experience of the veteran. We let him know how unreliable the veteran's body is. Using speed and force is to bully them to turn around. Slow down! Grab it for me in the frontcourt, as long as the ball is at their feet! We are more physically fit than them! We are younger than them!"
Tang En hit the tactical board with a fist.
To this end, his starting XI is full of young people - Niklas Bendtner and Arshavin up front, Ribery, Lennon, Van der Vaart and George Wood in midfield, and Perez at the back. Pei, Piqué, Gareth Bale and Rafinha.The oldest player in this starting lineup is goalkeeper Van der Sar.
Twain's tactic was very simple. There was no magic trick. He just took advantage of their younger age than AC Milan, better physical fitness, and better physical fitness to overwhelm AC Milan. At the same time, they caught the opponent by surprise at the beginning of the game.
This tactic is a bit risky, but it is better than holding on to a tie away from home.Anyway, a football game is a gamble. No matter how well the tactics are arranged before the game, there may be changes that the coaches don't want to see in the first second of the game...
It may be a bit complicated to say this, but in simple terms-plans cannot keep up with changes.
Twain decided to start with ordinary people's habitual perception of the Forest team and launch an offensive from a brand new starting point.
※ ※ ※
After the start of the game, the players of AC Milan really did not expect that Nottingham Forest would choose such a crazy tactic in the away game-offensive, not just as simple as attacking, in addition to attacking...it is still attacking!
"Within 15 minutes, if our attack doesn't work, then..." Tang En didn't continue, he shook his head.Gambling has to be a little exciting to be fun, right?
Nottingham Forest's offensive is indeed fierce, but it has not yet collapsed AC Milan's old defense.Ancelotti is not an idiot, just like Twain didn't count on Fatty An at the City Stadium last time. This time at the San Siro Stadium, his offensive was parried by AC Milan.

Being old also has its advantages. For example, the experience of the World War II is nothing to say... Maldini's command is impeccable.
After 15 minutes, the score is still 0:0.
"Tony, next..." Chris Lark asked.
"Continue to play like this." Dunn looked at the court and replied without turning his head.
At the end of the first half, the score was still 0:0.
During the intermission, Dunn didn't criticize his players for not scoring a goal in the first half. On the contrary, he encouraged the performance of the players, and then told them that the second half was the same as the first half, nothing special changed.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. AC Milan obviously strengthened its offensive and strived for goals.
Ancelotti admitted that his side were stunned by Nottingham Forest's unexpected attack in the first half and were a little unresponsive.He was thinking about it for the second half of the first half, and then he found that although the Forest team's offense was fierce, it was nothing but a tree without roots... In other words, it just looked fierce, without a solid defense. It's just a product of a bang, if you can hold on to their attack, you will have a lot to gain.
To understand this, the first half is over.During the intermission, Ancelotti told his team to be more proactive in the second half, boldly press forward when there is an offensive opportunity, and don't be afraid of things like the emptiness of the defense.Because this is a matter of "one goes down and the other goes up", as long as AC Milan dares to press up, Nottingham Forest's offensive will have to withdraw and retreat. At that time, the defensive pressure on their side will naturally ease...
That's how it happened, so AC Milan stepped up their offense in the second half, using offense to suppress offense.This game looks good.
The battle between the two sides was very fierce, Kaka sometimes had wonderful performances, and Franck Ribery, the new European Footballer of the Year, also did his best.Earlier, some media reported that the match between the two teams was actually a continuation of the grievances between the European Footballer of the Year and the World Footballer of the Year—and some people are still complaining that Ribery only won the Silver Globe of the World Footballer of the Year ...
But 10 minutes later, the score was still 0:0.
In fact, it was like two top masters fighting each other with their swords. The fight was brilliant and the world changed color, which made the audience hooked.But in fact... no one really hit anyone.
Tang En didn't get up from the coach's bench, and he didn't cross his legs. Instead, he put his chin in the palm of his left hand, rested his left elbow on his thigh, and stared at the court.The TV broadcast frequently gave him close-up shots, but it was impossible to see what his expression was.

Ancelotti couldn't sit still anymore. From 10 minutes into the second half, he began to get up from the coach's bench frequently, pacing back and forth between the side of the court and the coach's bench.
He had already seen what Tang En wanted to do, but unlike the time at the City Stadium, he couldn't change anything this time.Because... first, he used up two substitutions, and they were all offensive adjustments; second, he couldn't make Maldini on the back line ten years younger...
No. 80 minutes, the pace of the game on the field was dragged by the Forest team, and it was still going on very quickly. The neutral fans watched it in front of the TV and were hooked, while those AC Milan fans who knew the ball were silent and frowned at the same time. raised eyebrows...
AC Milan's players were basically unable to run.
In contrast, Nottingham Forest, from the Premier League, the fastest-paced league, their players are still alive and well.What's worse... Tang En finally got up from the coach's bench, and he decided to make a substitution.Van der Vaart, who was not physically strong, was replaced with Petrov, and Ribery was moved to the middle.
Ancelotti's eyebrows twitched.
No.807 minutes, AC Milan's Italian defense collapsed.
Maldini could no longer withstand Nottingham Forest's successive attacks from him - Lennon made a cross from the wing, and Bendtner beat the former world's best left-back with a powerful shot to the top!
Dida dropped the ball, and Ribery followed up with a supplementary shot like a loach!
Those on the Nottingham Forest bench and bench rushed out of their seats with arms raised.
Tang En hugged excitedly with Chris Rack next to him, and finally scored a goal!The dull atmosphere pervading above their heads was swept away.What's even better is that this is a last-minute goal. If AC Milan doesn't want to be eliminated, there is only one way-to score two goals in a row with a maximum of 6 minutes left!But this is not easy for the AC Milan players who follow the Forest team in fast-paced and high-speed sports games throughout the game.

Why Tang En insisted on attacking uncharacteristically was to drag the aging AC Milan into a fast-paced battle and consume their energy.If there is no experience to help, AC Milan's goal should have been broken, and there is no need to wait until this time.But this time is not bad, because there is not much time left for AC Milan...
After the game restarted, AC Milan desperately pushed forward to attack, while the Forest team played their best defensive counterattack.Let AC Milan be at a loss.
In the end, at the San Siro Stadium, at the home court of AC Milan, Nottingham Forest defeated the opponent 1:0, and also eliminated the team that had high hopes with a total score of 1:0 in the two rounds.
The San Siro Stadium was full of disappointment, and the AC Milan fans in the stands even had tears on their faces. They couldn't accept that the mighty AC Milan stopped at the top [-]. They had to know that their goal was to reach the final again. Who is the opponent, and who will eventually win the Champions Cup...
How can we stop there?
Tony Twain wildly celebrated his victory on the sidelines, which was completely different from his calmness during the game.Some Milan fans thought this was a provocation to them, and there were sporadic boos near the Forest team's coaching bench.
But right now, not many Milanese are interested in booing Twain and his team. Failure cannot change the fact.They can only hope that the team's performance in the domestic arena can satisfy them.More fans began to exit in frustration.
Twain, who won the ball at the press conference after the match, did not continue to ridicule his opponent "unreasonable". Compared with his performance on the sidelines before, he is now very calm and...gentle.
Yes, it might be a bit strange to use this word to describe Twain.But this is how he is now. He answers everyone's questions with a smile, without the slightest trace of gunpowder in his tone, which makes people who are familiar with him feel strange—is Tony Twain possessed by aliens?
Ancelotti didn't expect Tang En's attitude to be so good. He even took the initiative to hug him twice during the press conference. The first time was before the start, they walked up and hugged; the second time was after the end, Tang En took the initiative to hug him again and patted his shoulder, as if comforting him.
This surprised Ancelotti, thinking that the man had taken the wrong medicine.
Then Tang En smiled and left the venue under everyone's surprised eyes.
No one knew why Tang En was so happy, so they talked and speculated a lot.In fact, it is very simple. Nottingham Forest won AC Milan and moved one step closer to the Champions League final.For the defending champion, the defending season is very, very difficult.Every step forward is worth celebrating.
Tang En was only happy because he won the ball. Who doesn't like winning?What's more, he is a person who regards victory as his life...
