In the last round, Manchester United, which was tied by Dinamo Zagreb, defeated the Austrian Graz Storm 4-1. In the first round, Real Madrid Drawn by Olympiacos, this time they slaughtered Molde of Norway [-]:[-], making their hope of an upset come to nothing.

Others like Milan, Barcelona, ​​and Arsenal all won one after another. Although Bayern was tied by Glasgow Rangers, the giants of the Scottish Super League are by no means underdogs, and this is not an upset.

In the two rounds of the Champions League, there are only four teams that have won two consecutive victories. One is Alkmaar, and the other three teams are Barcelona, ​​Marseille and Porto. Not to mention the Spanish giants Barcelona, ​​​​Porto and Marseille are also in the Champions League. Alkmaar's regular visitors, the most surprising team is Alkmaar. Their combat effectiveness and stability have aroused the interest of the European media.

After the game, Germany's "Kicker" said: "Among the 32 teams, Alkmaar has the most dark horse potential. They have strong stability in both the league and the Champions League. They have won all six games. Now no one knows whether they can continue their magic in the league in the Champions League, but one thing is almost certain, that is, there is almost no doubt that they will qualify from this group."

Spain's "Mundo Deportivo" commented: "Alkmaar has become a team that has won two consecutive victories like Barcelona. They even defeated Dortmund and Rosenborg. They are in good condition and top the top 32. Although their The state came out a little earlier, but for the dark horse, the goal is not to win the championship, but to disrupt the situation, so it is not a bad thing to come out earlier."

After the UEFA Champions League, in the Netherlands, it became a hot topic of discussion about whether Van Bommel, Kevin Dirk, and Kronkamp should enter the national team. This discussion was triggered by Jiang Mu's speech after the match against Rosenborg.

At that time, a reporter from the Netherlands asked if it was possible for the Netherlands to win the European Cup to be held in the Netherlands next year. Jiang Mu replied: "At present, the Dutch national team does not have a player from Alkmaar, so it is impossible for them to win the championship. The semi-finals are already theirs. I think Van Bommel, Didier Dirk and Kronkamp can all become the main force of the Dutch team, Van der Sar's strength is unparalleled, but Silva can also be a substitute."

The Dutch media praised Alkmaar when Feyenoord and Eindhoven were either negative or tied. The Telegraph stated that "Alkmaar is the only hope for the Eredivisie in the Champions League" "Van Bommel, Didert and Kronkamp should all go to the European Cup to be held next year at home."

"International Football" commented: "Jiang Mu thought after the game that the Netherlands needed fresh blood. If they want to achieve good results in their home country, Van Bommel, Dirk, and Kronkamp are all players that can be considered. This statement is worthy of attention. Jekaard’s reference, after all, Alkmaar won the double crown last season, Van Bommel, Dirk Dirk, and Kronkamp are the absolute main players. They are a little younger, but they can definitely stimulate the existing main players. , being a substitute is no problem."

But the Netherlands international coach Frank Rijkaard did not make any noise on this discussion, but after a warm-up match against Brazil in September, Rijkaard said that the current squad of the Dutch team is enough to help the Netherlands win the second place. European Cup.This also implicitly blocked the possibility of Alkmaar's three players being selected for next year's European Cup.

Rijkaard's words aroused the anger of Alkmaar's local players. After the Champions League and Cambul's league, Jiang Mu adopted a rotation style of play. Silva, Martens, Suleiman and others did not play in the Champions League. The players who played in the field also appeared in the starting lineup one after another, and they also had a very good performance. The defense was solid as a rock, helping Alkmaar beat the opponent 4:0, and secured the top position in the standings.

Because next year is the year of the European Cup, the league schedule is compressed very short, and double matches a week has become the norm this season. After the league, Alkmaar will soon go to Portugal and Boavista to play the third league game of the Champions League.There are only three days between the two games.

The situation of Boavista is actually very similar to that of Alkmaar. The situation, rise of the two teams, and the two coaches are very similar.

The Eredivisie is dominated by Ajax, Feyenoord, and Eindhoven in turn. Before Alkmaar, no one can break their game of taking turns to win the championship. The Portuguese Super League is also dominated by the three giants Porto, Sporting Lisbon and Benfica dominates. For a hundred years, no team has been able to take away the championship from them. It was not until 2000 that Boavista broke such a vicious circle under the leadership of head coach Pacheco.

Last season, Jiang Mu's Alkmaar was the most amazing team in Europe. They won the league and cup double with an unbeaten record, breaking the dominance of the top three in the Eredivisie.In fact, Boavista in the Portuguese Super League is almost as amazing as them. The 41-year-old marshal Pacheco led the team to only lose three games this season. Because of the referee's problem, they only won the runner-up.

In the match against the top three in the Portuguese Super League, Boavista took the overall upper hand for the first time.In the two rounds with the same city rival and defending champion Porto, Boavista beat the opponent 2-0 at the opponent's Dragon Stadium, which caused a great psychological shock to the opponent's fans.In the second round, the "Grid Army" drew 0-0 with Porto at home.In the match against another powerful Sporting Lisbon team, the "Grid Army" drew with their opponents 2-2 at home, and shook hands again with 1-1 away.In the two matches against Benfica, the "Grid Army" even double-killed their opponents.2-1 at home and 3-0 away.Boavista's amazing performance made everyone look sideways.Without Jiang Mu and Alkmaar, Pacheco would have become a magical young coach like Jiang Mu.

Jiang Mu is also very familiar with Pacheco, because after 11 years, Pacheco became the head coach of Guoan in the Imperial Capital. Jiang Mu is also in the football circle of the Imperial Capital, and has dealt with Pacheco a lot. Knowing that Pacheco is actually a very great person, he cannot be as bullish as Mourinho. There are reasons for his personality, because he is too idealistic and not as utilitarian as Mourinho.In this era, only utilitarians can lead small ball clubs to win championships, while idealists need astronomical dollar support, and these astronomical dollars are only available to wealthy clubs, so forget about small ball clubs.

Jiang Mu is a time traveler. He knows Pacheco, but Pacheco doesn't know Jiang Mu. In the eyes of this short, fat and extremely shrewd Portuguese, Jiang Mu is just a Chinese who will do whatever it takes to win.

Although Pacheco thinks so, he doesn't dare to underestimate Jiang Mu. As an opponent in the same group, Pacheco has studied Jiang Mu seriously. He can't even believe that this is a coach living in China, because his Football thinking is too advanced, and football tactics have surpassed the times, but Pacheco is a genius, he thinks this can only be done by Jiang Mu. Capable of developing great football ideas.

When talking about Alkmaar and Jiang Mu, Pacheco said, "This is a talented coach who combines utilitarianism and ideals, conservativeness and radicalism, rationality and madness, and Alkmaar also has a coach similar to theirs. Features, all teams that underestimate them will be punished. Jiang Mu and I have some similar ideas in football. We both like technology, but we also value strength and defense. At first, but I don't like his unscrupulous approach to victory. Football is becoming more and more conservative and boring because of his overflowing thoughts.

We lost two Champions League games before because we had no experience. This is our first time playing in the Champions League. Now that we have realized the true face of the Champions League, we will re-examine ourselves and how to play the Champions League.I believe we will play better than before.I want to say now that we are not out yet, and Alkmaar is not out. There are six games in the Champions League group stage, and we will work hard to play well in the following games.Get out of the group. "

To play with a familiar coach from the previous life, Jiang Mu felt infinitely emotional. When talking about Pacheco and Boavista before the game, Jiang Mu's tone eased a lot, teasing them and sparring.

"Pacheco Jiang Mu's description of me is basically correct, but I don't think I am a genius. No one can know it by birth, and I am the same. I admire coach Pacheco for being able to make the Portuguese Super League mess up. I believe he will break the monopoly of the top three in the Portuguese Super League just like me.

Boavista is a very strong team. Sanchez and Timo Ford have strong dominance in the midfield. Although Bento and Couto are old, they are rich in experience. Although the forward line has left Ayew, But Dura and Atkin are enough to replace him. In the defense, Paul Sosa and Litos are both quasi-first-class defenders in Europe.Cameroon's national goalkeeper Willian and Portugal's national goalkeeper Ricciardo are absolutely one-on-one. They lost the first two games because of lack of experience. We will never underestimate them, and we are not qualified to underestimate them. We strive to win the third game in Portugal and lay a good foundation for qualifying. As we all know, we are building a new stadium. We hope to play well in the Champions League and support the construction of the new stadium with practical actions. "
