Chapter 451 Europa League 116 Finals
On February 2th, the first round of the Europa League 15/1 final was ushered in. Yu Tian and the Spaniard challenged Sporting Portugal away. Yu Tian led the players to the Alvalade Stadium.
Sporting Lisbon is definitely considered a giant in Portugal. It has trained countless stars, such as Luis Figo, Nani, and Cristiano Ronaldo.
The home stadium of Sporting Lisbon is called the Alvalade Stadium, which is located in Lisbon, the capital of Portugal. It is also the largest football stadium in Portugal, which can accommodate more than 5 spectators.
Although the stadium was not full for this game, there were still a lot of fans. The Spaniards had [-] fans today, which is not easy for the Spaniards.
You must know that there is Barcelona in the same city as the Espanyol, so there are not many Espanyol fans, and Yu Tian was very moved by the presence of [-] fans.
Time passed very quickly, and unknowingly, players from both sides have already appeared from the player tunnel one after another. Seeing the players appearing, the fans quickly cheered.
Before the game, all parties believed that the Spaniard had a higher chance of winning. The Spaniard is currently performing very well in La Liga, and the core player of the team, Chen Chen, has been playing very stable.
Major European media generally believe that the Spaniard will defeat Sporting Lisbon and successfully advance to the Europa League 1/8 finals.
In this game, Yu Tian played a 4-4-2 diamond midfield formation.
Goalkeeper: 13 Diego Lopez;
Defenders: 22 Canseco, 4 Shuli, 6 Duarte, 16 Harvey Lopez;
Midfielders: 19 Piatti, 7 Wang Yandong, 15 David Lopez, 11 Baptistan;
Forwards: 10 Chen Chen, 9 Iglesias;
In this game, Yu Tian boldly played only one defensive midfielder, and then started Chen Chen and Iglesias on the front line. Yu Tian hoped to win an away game. Yu Tian knew that the Spaniard definitely had this ability.
As for Sporting Portugal, what worries Yu Tian the most is undoubtedly their midfielder. Huaxia midfielder Yang Jie partnered with Bruno Fernandez. Because of Yang Jie's excellent defensive ability, Bruno Fernandez's offensive talent has been liberated to a large extent.
As a midfielder, Bruno Fernandez has excellent shooting ability, as well as excellent passing ability and dribbling ability. Bruno Fernandez's ability is also as high as 157 points.
And Bruno Fernandez's scoring efficiency this season is also very high, which is largely due to the midfielder Yang Jie, Bruno Fernandez is also Yu Tian's focus on defense before the game.
After the players came to the court, the two teams shook hands in a friendly manner, and then the captains of both sides came to the referee team and distributed the right to kick-off by flipping coins, and the Spaniard won the right to kick-off.
With the whistle of the referee, the game officially started, and the two teams quickly started a fierce battle.
The Spaniard took the lead in launching the offensive. Although Sporting had more midfielders, the Spaniard's ability to control the ball was better because of the presence of Wang Yandong.
The Spaniard took the lead in attacking from the left, but this attack failed in the end, because Piatti dribbled too much and was robbed of the ball by the opponent's closed defense.
The game continued, and soon Yu Tian knew that Sporting was not a soft persimmon. For a while, he played back and forth with the Spaniard, and the Spaniard played very hard.
Fortunately, Yu Tian made some arrangements before the game. Although Sporting Portugal's midfield configuration is good, there is a big problem, that is, their midfielders are not tall. Needless to say, Yang Jie, Bruno Fernandez is only 1 meters tall.
The Spaniard began to pass high balls frequently, because the Portuguese midfielder's ability to compete for the top is not strong.
When the time came to the 29th minute, goalkeeper Diego Lopez kicked the ball with a big kick. David Lopez and Yang Jie competed for the header. Sure enough, David Lopez won the football and then passed the football back to Wang Yandong.
Wang Yandong started to organize the attack after receiving the football. This time the Spaniard wanted to support the attack from the middle, and Wang Yandong dribbled the ball forward and pressed in.
At this time, the opponent's Coates ran towards Wang Yandong, and then swept the shovel, trying to prevent Wang Yandong from continuing to press.
But Wang Yandong picked up the football, and then jumped a little by himself, and even dribbled the ball past Coates.
After Wang Yandong drove away the defensive player, he did not continue to dribble, but passed the football to Iglesias who was stepping on the penalty area line. At the same time, Wang Yandong ran forward without the ball.
Iglesias did not stop the ball, but knocked the football back to Wang Yandong with his right foot, and Wang Yandong did not stop the ball, but also knocked the football to Iglesias.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Yandong still ran into the penalty area. Iglesias made a through ball and directly drilled into Andre Pinto's crotch. Wang Yandong caught up with Iglesias' through ball.
This continuous pass directly tore through the defense of Sporting Portugal, but after Wang Yandong stopped the ball, the shooting angle was already very small, and Wang Yandong faced the attacking veteran goalkeeper Sarin.
Wang Yandong did not choose to hit the goal forcefully, but chose to pass the ball. The football was passed to the back point, and the goalkeeper Salin chose to attack, so as long as the pass is reached, it will be a big empty goal.
Sporting Defender Gaspar, seeing that Wang Yandong chose to pass the ball, hurried towards the back point, hoping to catch up with the football.
However, at this time, Chen Chen, who had a keen sense of smell in front of the goal, really appeared in the position where he should appear most. Chen Chen faced the passing football from behind, and lightly padded his right foot to put the football into the goal.
The Spaniard scored an away goal 1-0!Chen Chen opened the scoring and helped the Spaniard take the lead!
Seeing Chen Chen scored a goal, all the fans in the audience fell silent, only the Espanyol fans who came with the visiting team were celebrating crazily, and they cheered loudly towards the celebrating Chen Chen.
Chen Chen, who stood up from the coach's bench early, saw Chen Chen scoring a goal, and excitedly punched the air to release his inner excitement. At the same time, the substitute players behind Yu Tian were also celebrating excitedly.
Not only because the team is leading, but also because the Spaniard has an away goal. Whether it is the Europa League or the Champions League, away goals are very important. There are too many teams that are unfortunately eliminated because of the disadvantage of away goals.
Yu Tian looked at the players on the field and nodded with a smile. Before the game, Yu Tian was more worried because the Spaniard was in the Europa League group stage and went to other countries for away games, and the players' condition was relatively average.
Yu Tian was worried that it would continue into this game, but so far, the players are still in good condition. Whether it is offense or defense, the players are doing very well.
