Chapter 808 Luck is earned by yourself
Update time: 2013-01-10
When both players appear, the gunpowder smells stronger on the court.
Originally, there was no hatred between Mallorca and Sevilla. In history, both sides were more miserable teams, and they were all poor brothers. However, now the two teams are rising one after another. Sevilla is even called the team that may become the next Mallorca team by the media. While bringing pride to Sevilla, they also make them more unhappy Mallorca - if there were no Mallorca, Sevilla might be the third strongest in La Liga now...
In addition to the pre-match verbal battle, Sevilla's players participated. The more quarrels, the more angry they became. They naturally hated Mallorca's players. Although Mallorca's players did not participate, they would not feel much more happy. So when the players were in the game, the players on both sides were also staring at each other, full of murderous aura.
This emotion has been brought to the court, and when both sides shake hands before the game, they are hard and there is no smile on their faces.
This was also discovered on the live broadcast. He gave a close-up of his face when both sides shook hands. Immediately, many commentators laughed gloatingly: "Haha, it seems that both sides are preparing to fight desperately in the game... If Mallorca takes it seriously, Sevilla's chance of winning is not too high, but Sevilla's strength is also very outstanding. This game will definitely be a good show!"
It's indeed a good show.
From the beginning of the game, Mallorca launched a tide of attack, while Sevilla was based in the midfield and dealt with Mallorca, and then waited for an opportunity to counterattack. There were high points like Canute in the frontcourt, fast wings like Navas and Adriano on both wings, Renato, Keita and Maresca in the middle can be considered good at attacking and defending. With Alves' assist ability, they are not inferior to their counterattacks.
Just two minutes into the game, Sevilla completed a counterattack. Alves inserted an assist from the right and made a cross. Macon at the back point cleared not far away. After inserting Renato stopped the ball, he quickly took a kick at the front of the penalty area, and the ball missed the far post.
This attack was quickly retaliated by Mallorca. Three minutes later, Mattias made a beautiful long pass in the backcourt. After Barack successfully stopped the ball in the air, he passed it to the left side. Henry took the ball and quickly dribbled the defense of Paulson, who played the central defender in this game, and then passed the ball across. Kaka, who was inserted at high speed, got rid of Alves with speed, and then rushed to the ball and volleyed directly!
Goalkeeper Palop didn't even have time to react, and the ball hit the bottom of the near post and then bounced out of the bottom line!
The sighs of Mallorca fans sounded in the stands, and then there was thunderous applause!
"Mallorca almost scored in the first five minutes! Kaka's sprint shot made Sevilla's defenders have no time to react at all! If this continues, Sevilla will be in trouble. Mallorca's offense is still very effective in tearing open Sevilla's defense line and constantly creating opportunities!"
All Mallorca fans firmly believe that Mallorca will easily take the lead and defeat this opponent who has defeated them twice. However, the charm of football lies in the existence of unpredictability and luck!
In the first ten minutes, Sevilla was almost suppressed by Mallorca and couldn't even breathe. However, in the eleventh minute of the game, they took the lead with a corner kick. Navas took a corner kick from the right. Van der Sar, who had always been steady, made a mistake in attacking. He attacked the ball in the middle but failed to touch the ball. Renato scored at the headspace goal five meters away from the goal, and Sevilla led by 1-0!
"Sevilla is leading! They seem to be a little lucky in this goal, but in the previous Spanish Super Cup match, Sevilla's goals seemed to have a lot of luck. It can be said that they appear once, but it is not luck, but it seems that they appear several times in a row. Their offense seems to have a very huge lethality against Mallorca's defense. Mallorca always loses some inexplicable goals when facing them..."
While Sevilla players hugged and cheered, Mallorca's players looked unhappy. It seemed that they were indeed a bit damn when facing Sevilla over the past year. They didn't have many opportunities to seize, and the opponent was always able to score goals at a disadvantage. If they continued to play like this, it would be a huge torture for all players.
Although Mallorca's players have experienced many battles, it is nothing to lose one or two inexplicable goals in one game. They don't care about it, but they have lost inexplicable goals until now, so people have to care about it...
In the away game of the King's Cup semi-finals last year, Mallorca, who had all substitutes, did not create fewer opportunities on the scene and in terms of opportunities created than Sevilla, but he didn't seize any chance. Sevilla scored three goals in a row, and those three goals were not the absolute opportunity, but half-to-half opportunities, but all of them were scored.
So after that game, the Spanish media used the word "accident" to describe this game, which was indeed very surprising, especially when comparing the situation on the field with the score, which was even more surprising...
In the second leg, Mallorca only won two at home in Sevilla and was eliminated.
In the just-passed Spanish Super Cup, Mallorca created more than 20 shots away, but no goal was scored at once. Sevilla's goal at home was like the crotch of a virtuous woman, but it was not opened. Sevilla won by relying on a penalty kick. After returning to Mallorca's home court, Mallorca's offense began to smooth out, but the defense continued to have problems. Alves' world wave and Ivanovic's mistakes... Sevilla scored three goals in the away game, winning the Spanish Super Cup championship.
In addition, this time, the siege was defeated by the opponent with a corner kick. No matter who was replaced, he would be a little confused...
Although the Mallorca players who couldn't figure out performed well in the next game, they missed many opportunities. Barack rushed to the headspace goal behind the back and missed the far post. Alonso made a long pass in the middle, Macon stopped the ball at the corner of the penalty area and shot the side net. Barack passed the low pass from the left, Henry and Torres in front of the goal missed the landing point of the ball...
The most fatal thing is that two minutes before the end of the first half, Mallorca players worked hard to create a beautiful scoring opportunity. Kaka broke through the front of the penalty area and passed the cross. Alonso inserted the ball kept throwing the ball into the penalty area. After Henry caught the ball, he faced the goalkeeper Palop's calm shot. The ball flew into the dead corner of the goal. However, when Henry was about to celebrate, he saw that the lineman had raised the flag in his hand, and Henry was offside...
"Oh, the linebacker raised the flag, Henry offside, the goal was invalid! Mallorca is really unlucky. They created much more opportunities than Sevilla in the first half but did not score. Finally, Henry scored the ball but was considered offside. Let's take a look at slow motion... Well, it is worth discussing. At the time of Alonso's passing, Henry's arm was stretched out a little bit, but his foot was behind Sevilla's last defender. It would be okay to say offside, but in the flash, the linebacker's eyesight is also good enough..."
In the commentator's joke, the first half was over, and the players of Mallorca walked off the court with some reluctance. In this first half, they actually performed very well and almost completely suppressed the opponent. However, they also had the upper hand in the previous few games against Sevilla, but in the end they were snatched away the championship by the opponent...
At this time, the psychology of the Mallorca players was really a bit shady.
However, this shadow was shattered by Jose during the intermission.
"I know what you're thinking."
After returning to the locker room, Jose's first words were to say this to the players.
When he said this, he had a relaxed smile on his face, so that the Mallorca players didn't react at all - what are we thinking? How did you know, boss?
"Okay, isn't it just the things that the media said that have put you in trouble? I think Sevilla's luck has indeed become particularly good when he plays us. It is difficult for us to score good opportunities, but their average chances can score goals... But what does that matter? The football game itself will be full of all kinds of luck, but as long as we put our offense to the limit, we can also influence our luck! Besides, can Sevilla always make a living by luck? If they think so, they will immediately fall into a big fall!" Jose said with a fist.
"But these games are really like a ghost. It's hard for us to score no matter how we play. Thierry's goal was even judged to be offside..." Torres muttered.
"Yes, our luck may not be as good as Sevilla in these games, but don't forget, what were our results against Sevilla in the previous four games? Two wins and two losses! The goal difference is only one behind. If it weren't for some accidental factors, the two champions would be ours. Can they really live a lifetime by luck? Even if luck is not on our side today, we have to use our performance to tell Sevilla's guys that even if luck is by your side, they will definitely not be our opponents!"
Speaking of this, Jose took a breath and said, "Luck is the most illusory thing, and it will not always surround someone. Do you know what luck is in my eyes? The best preparation and the most serious attitude can bring the best luck! If we calm down when shooting, then there will be no situation where we can't make a single shot. If we are in a better position when we are in a better position when we are in a forward position, then there will be no offside. If we never give up when defending and pursue to the end, then we may resolve the opponent's chance to enter the empty goal! In this world, there is no luck. All luck is earned by ourselves, rather than sitting at home waiting for the sky to fall from luck!"
"In the 99-00 season, we won the League Cup championship without being favored by everyone. Many people think it was luck, but was it really luck? Vicente was on the scene at that time. Of course, no one of the players in Mallorca was here... Do you know how I did it at that time? In the first half of the month of the final, I started preparing for the defensive tactics, because our strength was not as good as Arsenal at that time, and Arsenal's offensive ability was also excellent. We formulated all the defensive tactics and considered the reactions we should make in all situations, how to play when we lag behind, how to play when we lead, how to do overtime, and how to practice penalty shootouts... It is precisely because of all these preparation activities that we have the luck and defeated Arsenal, which is much stronger than us, and won the final championship!"
He looked around all the players: "What is luck? This is luck!"
