Football King Bale

Chapter 518: Unpopular first round of the Olympics

The disappointment of British fans has continued because they found that in the first game of the Olympic men’s football team, Bell still sat on the bench, and it was 90 minutes at a time, even if this game was at the home of Bell. At the Lafford Stadium, even if the British Olympic team was equalized by the opponent, the situation on the court was tight, and coach Pierce did not mean to send Bell.

The first group match of the British Olympic Games took place on the evening of July 26 GMT, against the African powerhouse Senegal Olympic team.

This is the last of the eight games in the first round of the group stage. When the British Olympic team and the Senegal Olympic team debut, a group stage has already been decided. In the duel between the other two teams in Group A, the UAE lost to Uruguay 1:2, Mexico and South Korea in Group B scored 0:0, and Gabon and Switzerland scored 1:1; Group C Two games, just started 15 minutes early, and it was still too early to decide; two games in Group D, Morocco 2:2 draw with Honduras, while the other game, it revealed the biggest upset in the group stage The Japanese team defeated the powerful Spain 1:0!

The truth on the football field has once again been verified, that is, the factors that win the game are not history, honor and fame, but spirit, technology and tactics.

After the Spanish lost unexpectedly to Wales in the European Cup, they were rushing towards the Olympic champion. They were once again poured into a cold water by the seemingly weak Japanese team. David defeated the giant Goliath. The story was once again staged on the football field. Spain is the world champion. There are countless stars in the team, but in the end it tastes the bitterness of the defeat.

………………

In this game, Spain lost not only the result, but also the scene. They seemed to carelessly control the scene to dominate, thinking that the victory will automatically fly into their pockets, but when the ball was accidentally lost, the Spaniard Immediately, he lost his confidence, appeared panicked, and soon was punished again.

In the second half, if it was not De Gea showing bravery, if it was not for the Japanese striker to waste opportunities, the final score might even be 0:5!

In the whole match, Spain only had 6 foot shots, 2 of which were in the range of the door frame, while the Japanese team formed 10 shots and 4 times in the range of the frame. The Spanish coach made frequent adjustments, but no matter who played, the situation was not. Substantial changes have taken place.

On the court, Japanese players rushed all over the field, using extremely high tactical qualities and tenacious fighting spirit to make the Spaniard's technical advantage spend invisible.

The Spaniard came to England with his longing for a gold medal, but the result was almost ugly when he debuted.

0:1 losing is not terrible, what is terrible is losing so thoroughly, there is no resistance. In the whole game, the Spaniard failed to create a scoring opportunity that scared the Japanese fans into a cold sweat, and failed to show a perfect football.

The Spanish media also admitted that Spain was a student this time and was taught a lesson by Japanese players. The Matas were exhausted, listless on the court, failed to show their football, and failed to put the game on their favorite track. Inigo's red card is certainly controversial, but judging by the messy performance of Spain after the goal was concealed a few minutes before he was sent off, even if it has been 11 to 11, the Matador may not be able to even the score.

At the World Cup in South Africa, Bosque’s Spanish national team also lost to Switzerland in the first game, but Spain still controlled the situation at that game, and there were certain accidental elements in the goal, but if this game is not De Gea brave The savior repeatedly made a single shot, the Spanish Olympic team may have created a record of losing in recent years.

Just looking at the name, the Spanish Olympic team stars: Mata, Alba, Martinez are all members of the Spanish national team. Although De Gea is only the substitute goalkeeper of the Spanish national team, it is the main goalkeeper of the super giant Red Devils Manchester United. Slightly played for Barcelona... And the head of the Japanese Olympic team, Kagawa Shinji, simply did not come. Almost everyone thinks that the Spaniard can easily win the game, but the result is quite the opposite.

Now, the Spaniard still has two games to restore his face and find his dignity. The performance of the adult national team at the World Cup in South Africa 2 years ago is what they should learn. From the beginning of the next game, they should have a correct attitude. Every player makes every effort to fight every minute. Only in this way can they meet the expectations of fans.

………………

Spain's defeat sounded the alarm for other strong teams who played later, and the British team was no exception.

Although the British football team held three Olympic gold medals, the last time they won the highest podium in the Olympic Games was a hundred years ago, and this is also their first appearance in the Olympic finals in 52 years. Fortunately, the first-time opponent Senegal is also the Olympic Games. Cainiao, the African team that made its debut in the Olympic finals, lost to South Korea at 0:3 in the final warm-up.

Pierce is very clear that British fans are bound to win this Olympic gold medal, because the British National Olympics team has almost occupied the right place, and if they can’t win, he can imagine that he will face after the Olympics. Public opinion pressure.

Pierce attaches great importance to the game against Senegal. In addition to Bell, he sent the strongest lineup in his hand. Giggs started wearing the armband of the captain, so he became the oldest non-goal player in the history of the men’s football in the Olympic finals. In addition, Richards and Bellamy also appeared in the starting lineup. .

In the opening half of the first half, the British team took advantage of the ball, but neither side could find a good offensive opportunity in the first 10 minutes.

In the 13th minute, Cleverelli took the ball from the frontcourt and hit the ball in front of the goal. The ball was confiscated by goalkeeper Mane.

In the 19th minute, Cissé tripped Bellamy and gave a free kick. Then Giggs kicked the free kick on the right side of the frontcourt into the penalty area. Caulke jumped out of the chaos and pushed the ball out. Bellamy hit the earth at 10 meters and sent the ball into the left corner of the Senegalese goal. The British team took the lead in breaking the deadlock.

When the fans thought that the British team will usher in a big victory, the game's trend is a bit unintelligible. The British team not only did not create any absolute goal chance, but in the 81st minute of the game, the defender made a mistake and was scored by Senegal to equalize the score.

After the score was equalized, the British team set off a wave of offensive climax, but failed to break Senegal's goal. Their most recent chance to reach the goal came in 88 minutes, but striker Soder kicked the ball at the goal post 9 meters from the goal and missed the opportunity to exceed the score again.

In the end, the 1:1 score was kept until the end of the game, but the efforts of the two Welsh veterans failed to bring a home start to the "reappearing" British Olympic team. Like the warm-up match, it was the number one favourite to win the championship. The British Olympic team has not shown any championship appearance.

………………

The British team, who returned to the Olympics after 52 years, failed to win the jackpot. The BBC asks itself: Should we be glad to get one point, or should we lament the loss of two points?

The key points for raising such questions are concentrated on the 33-year-old veteran Bellamy. He scored a goal for the British Olympic team, but the referee missed a penalty after being violated by his opponent Cisse in the penalty area in the second half, which made an English media reporter shout: The British team was robbed!

ESPN bluntly: This is a disappointing start.

In addition, the scores of the game, including Henry Winter of the Daily Telegraph, all expressed their views. The result of the draw was fair, but the Senegal’s Cisse in the 70th minute in the second half It was also intolerable to kick Bellamy in the penalty area but escaped the penalty. The referee let go of this obvious penalty opportunity. In addition, Cisse's action was completely enough to be expelled by a red card.

BBC reporter Mark Lawrence, who was watching the game at Old Trafford, said: "This is a decision to change the direction of the game."

Alan Hansen said: "No penalty for Bellamy's penalty is a penalty for the right or wrong of the game. Of course I am surprised that the referee did not point to the penalty point. If the British team gets a penalty and scores, then There may be no suspense in the outcome of the game."

"We need to see positive and positive things, but we should also see that there are many jobs that we need to do," Giggs said to the media after the game: "This is the first official game since our team was established~www .readwn.com~ Everyone needs to adapt. From this point, we should perform better in the next game. If we want to qualify from this group, we have to improve some more."

Head coach Pierce also said helplessly that the host's opener was really difficult to play. He said: "I saw everyone a little nervous before the game. Most of our players have experience in the Premier League game, but the Olympic games are different. We have some after the opening. Running out of oil, running from the bottom line to the bottom line, the body energy cost is very large. We should be satisfied with the lead, and we hope to expand the lead, but we still have a lot of opportunities to advance, this is a very open group After the first game, we need to develop confidence. Physically, Senegal players are taller and more powerful than us, but this is not an excuse. We need to come out and review this game, and then Keep going."

The opponent of the British national Olympic team in the second round of the group stage is the UAE team, which is even stronger than Senegal. Giggs emphasized that the team must strive to win this Asian opponent if they want to qualify. He told reporters: "We need to win one of the next two games. We watched a bit of the UAE game. They played quite a lot of performance against Uruguay, so this will be a very difficult bite. Bones, but we need to win this game."
