Red Rebels

816 last minute

The strength of every team must have its own driving force behind it.

This driving force can come from a head coach, from the motivation of money and interests, from the tradition and pride of the club.

Every player needs such a driving force to prompt them to exert their strongest strength on the court, so that they can always maintain unremitting fighting spirit and always hold the belief of winning even at the last moment of the game.

When a player has this driving force, they will show the ability to change a game, although they may not be able to win; but when every player on a team has this driving force, they will become invincible

Ferguson often told his players, No one will remember second place, all we have to do is fight for the championship.

Benitez always tells his players, Either go home or fight like a warrior.

Van Gaal told his players, Man City can only win, no buts

Pellegrini also told his players that the legend of the Red Rebels is not something that cannot be replicated.

They have all successfully molded their own personalities into the teams they lead. They have instilled their will and personality into the team's technical and tactical levels, turning the players into their pawns on the court.

The Red Rebels also succeeded, but the success of the Red Rebels came not only from Mourinho's indoctrination and coaching, but also from Xiao Yu's choice of head coach when the team was first established.

Every team has its own tradition. What is tradition? It is temperament and character.

Each giant team has its own tradition, its own character, temperament and historical heritage. So whenever fans mention Manchester United, they think of Ferguson and their domineering attitude without anger. When they mention Real Madrid, they think of their elegance. The style of play reminds me of mercury-like passing and cutting coordination...

The character of a team is determined by the character and temperament of the first head coach when the team is first formed. He injects soul into the team and instills his character and temperament. From now on, no matter the passing of time or the change of personnel, the soul of this team will be used for

This is a memoir written by Xiao Yu in the Red Rebels Exhibition Hall. He recalled why the Red Rebels chose Steve Bruce when they selected their head coach. He also rejoiced that he was wise and wise when selecting the head coach. Foresight

Steve Bruce brings toughness to Red Rebels,

Injecting iron blood and iron discipline, it also brought a perseverance to the team, allowing the team to always show a fighting style that never gives up at critical moments.

After Steve Bruce left, Xiao Yu brought in the personality coach Mourinho. He continued to inherit Steve Bruce's traditional personality and carried it forward to further shape the team's temperament and personality. And this kind of team character is deeply imprinted on the soul of the team, deeply affecting every player.

Maybe, some people will doubt that the country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change. How to change a person's character?

In ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, no matter which dynasty or period it is, heroes and outstanding figures often do not appear alone. For example, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, such as the Three Kingdoms period, and the Renaissance period abroad, heroes and outstanding figures all appeared in groups. appeared.

It is a product of condensed temperament, and it is the result of the reshaping of traditional character.

Many people wonder why when people in the 21st century look at those celebrities from the Republic of China in the early 20th century, or historical celebrities from a longer time ago, their first impression is that they are particularly tall, have a particularly good spirit, and are full of awe. What about a person’s aura?

That's not one person, but everyone. This can be seen in every photo and portrait of ancient celebrities. Why?

Because that was the character of that era

In fact, each of them has his or her own unique character, words and deeds, but looking at the entire era, they also have the character and temperament of this era.

The same goes for a football team. Every player on the team can have his own personality and temper, but in this team, they will involuntarily be infected with the team's personality and temperament. , and then unknowingly, the personality and temperament of this team were integrated into his original personality and temperament. Over time, it became integrated.

Therefore, although Ronaldinho's personality is close to Xiao Yu's previous life in some aspects, he is completely devoted to the Red Rebels. He is always full of desire to win; Mourinho's change is even more obvious. After all, he is for this team. The team brought a sublimated person, but in many cases, he was still the Portuguese madman who spoke out loud and needed the club to wipe his ass everywhere.

Now Fabio's situation is very similar. After he came to Manchester, he was influenced by the personality and temperament of the Red Rebels, but he was a bit rejected by this personality and temperament, and just chose to compromise. But now, in this game Here, he was infected, and for the first time he resonated with the personality and temperament of the Red Rebels.

this is a good start

…………

…………

It's already three minutes of stoppage time. Cassel looked at the watch on his wrist anxiously and shook his head in despair.

The Italian team attaches great importance to defense. AC Milan's defense is not a fuel-saving lamp. If they really start a iron barrel formation and do everything possible to prevent the Red Rebels from scoring, then the Red Rebels will really have no choice but to do it for a while.

The reinforced concrete chain defense has undoubtedly become a feature of Italian football, and it also represents the decline of Italian football, especially their conservative style of play that emphasizes defense, which has gradually begun to fail to keep up with the development of modern football. .

Intense physical confrontation, fast-paced offense and defense, and beautiful offensive football are the mainstream of today's football.

Don't be so rude, Jim, it's just a game, Mourinho looked at his assistant and advised.

Cassell also wanted to convince himself in this way, but he found that he couldn't, Is it really just a game?

Mourinho was speechless. This was indeed not an ordinary game. It was the first non-victory game for the Red Rebels this season. It was the first draw for the Red Rebels this season, and the Red Rebels are proud of it. The record will also change from winning streak to undefeated

Undefeated record? The Red Rebels are the current undefeated record holders in football.

Can you make some more adjustments? Cassell suggested, Let them all press up.

Mourinho smiled bitterly, Have you seen Pato? We can't press too high without restraint, besides...

He didn't say it, but Cassell knew that there were only 4 minutes of stoppage time. In the remaining 1 minute, adjustments had no effect. The only thing that could be expected was the players' fighting spirit and will.

In this last minute, tactics, techniques, formations, etc. are all in vain. The only thing that can dominate the outcome of this game is the players and their fighting spirit.

Mourinho knows this very well, but he cannot push the players to death. That is not a wise move for a head coach. After all, the players have done well enough, and now they are tied with AC Milan in the away game. , this is not an unacceptable result. If we put pressure on the players just to stop the winning streak, it may really be the last straw that breaks their hearts. By then, the Red Rebels may be completely defeated. .

Psychology is often so wonderful

A tie is a tie, Jim. We can't keep the winning streak forever. If it's not a tie today, it will be a tie tomorrow. If we don't lose today, we will lose tomorrow. In this case, why should we be persistent?

When you are a head coach, you should take a long-term view and stick to the present. That is short-sighted.

You're right, Jose, I...I'm just a little unwilling, Cassel smiled bitterly.

Mourinho also smiled bitterly, a very bitter smile, I am not willing to accept it, and I believe that our players are not willing to accept it either.

Is it right? Mourinho didn't ask, but he looked at the court as if he was asking his players in his heart.

Players responded on the pitch

Even at the last minute, they did not give up. They were still running, still working hard, and still fighting. No one chose to give up.

Time passed by second by second, but when the Red Rebel players did not hear the referee's whistle, they had no intention of stopping and still persisted. No one on the court even stopped to take a breath. , each one of them looked at everything on the court with a pair of bloodshot and fanatical eyes.

AC Milan's Gattuso and Pirlo flanked Michael Johnson. The Englishman's legs cramped twice and he couldn't move forward. After being flanked, he immediately chose to turn around to protect the ball, but there was no ball around him. point.

Just when he hesitated to knock the ball back to the defense, he found a familiar figure suddenly appeared on the left, a person raised his hand high, Here, Michael

Michael Johnson didn't have any room to think, so he passed the ball directly.

This person's dribbling was a bit strange. Although he was a left player, he stopped the ball with his right foot, and then quickly dribbled the ball forward. He was very decisive, very resolute, and without any hesitation.

The right back against Fabio in this game is Bonera. This player who was once widely optimistic in Italian football has now been squeezed out of position by Nesta and Thiago Silva. He can only Plays the role of snake oil in the defense line.

However, Bonera's performance is not convincing. His offensive ability is lacking and his defense is not stable enough, which makes Tassotti worried about him. There are even rumors that he will leave AC Milan at the end of the season, which makes Bonera Desperately trying to prove himself.

When he saw Fabio dribbling up with the ball, he immediately chose to step forward to intercept. In his opinion, the thin Fabio should not be able to resist the squeeze of his body, and his position was good, which can be regarded as He has few advantages.

But just when he thought he had occupied a favorable position, he didn't see Fabio suddenly sink. The ball passed from his left side, that is, Fabio's right side, and then he suddenly turned inward. cut.

Right foot? Bonera was shocked as if he had been hit with a heavy hammer.

It is rare to see a reverse left back in football. After all, there is a big difference between a left back and a left winger.

Today's wingers emphasize inverse footing, which is to allow them to use their dominant foot to complete the shot after cutting inside. Therefore, left-footed players play on the right and right-footed players play on the left, both in order to hit the goal after cutting inside. , or passing the ball.

But what’s the need for a full-back to be inverse? Is it also for shooting from the back row?

There is no doubt that the top left-footed defenders in today's football are almost all left-footed players. Lahm is right-footed. Although he can play on both sides, he mostly chooses to play as a right-footed defender.

In fact, the Red Rebel Laboratory once gave him advice on this point, that is, he plays on the left, and then uses his fast speed and excellent skills. On the left, he can go forward and cut in. At this time, he often With just one change of direction, he can dodge his opponent, cut into the penalty area, and be able to shoot or pass with ease.

During the Red Rebels, Lahm undoubtedly followed the club's requirements, but after returning to Bayern Munich, Lahm chose to return to the right. For this matter, Mourinho, Cassel, Boyas and others I have sighed more than once, saying that football has lost another Roberto Carlos-style left back.

Today's Fabio, the Red Rebels are continuing their previous cultivation of Ram to refine him. His speed and skills are better than Ram's, and his scoring ability is stronger and his ability to read the game is also better. , he once won the top scorer of the U17 World Junior Championship, and he won it as a left back, which shows his potential.

But this time, Fabio suddenly moved forward and then changed direction, and Bonera was easily shaken away by him.

What appeared in front of Fabio was an open space. In front of him were his teammates and AC Milan defenders. He went directly to the left corner of the penalty area, raised his head, and looked at the goal not far away. , he always stared there

When he saw Dida moving to the left, he obviously realized that he would pass the ball, leaving more than half of the entire right side of the goal empty. This was definitely a good opportunity because Dida made a mistake.

So, he came to the left corner of the penalty area and immediately shot angrily.

The ball was like a cannonball. Everyone on the scene just heard a bang. Nesta, who was about to step forward to intercept, instinctively turned sideways, but was unable to stop the football from bypassing him and hitting the right side of the goal. Wiping the doorpost and entering the net

This is a world wave

Attacking the goal from the left corner of the penalty area, after drawing an arc trajectory, it went straight into the blind corner, and it was at the last moment of the last minute of the game. This was definitely a world-wide kick worth a thousand dollars.

Fabio's eyes widened in disbelief. He looked at his stunned teammates on the court and the stunned AC Milan players. They were all shocked by his goal, especially Di Damn, he didn't even have time to react.

He reacted, and a surge of ecstasy surged into his heart in an instant. He wanted to celebrate, and he wanted to run around the stadium stands to vent his excitement, but he found that he was a little too slow. No more pace.

My legs are shaking. I'm so excited that I can't move at this time.

Haha, you scored, you scored, Fabio. Kaka, who was nearby, ran up immediately and gave Fabio, who was half a head shorter than him, a bear hug, and then directly He hugged him whole.

This guy's weight is really not high. The Red Rebels believe that if he wants to perform better, he needs to increase at least 5-10 kilograms of muscle, which will make him stronger in strength confrontation and more suitable for the current football environment.

Fabio looked at Kaka who was hugging him tightly in disbelief. Then he saw Ismail, Michael Johnson, Messi and others rushing over, rushing to hug him one by one. Together, we celebrated this hard-won goal and the reversal at the last moment.

In the crowd, Fabio allowed himself to be held and pushed by his teammates. He didn't even use any force, he just let them do it. Then his limp body didn't touch the ground at all, and he followed his teammates around.

They were all so excited. After all, scoring a goal at the last minute and defending the Red Rebels' winning streak this season at a critical moment was definitely a supreme honor for the players.

The players rushed to the coaching bench. The game was over and the suspense was completely lost. They thought that at this time, they should celebrate with Mourinho, the coaching staff and teammates on the bench, and share this victory together. fruit.

The away victory over AC Milan, although only 2:3, but the Red Rebels have already entered the top 8 knockout rounds with one foot.

Mourinho happily hugged and celebrated with the players. When he came to Fabio, he smiled and hugged the Brazilian boy, Well done, Fabio, very beautiful, that forward penetration is very good. Wonderful

Although Fabio was out of breath, after hearing this, he couldn't help the excitement and excitement in his heart and laughed.

This seems to be the first time Mourinho has publicly praised him. In the past, he always praised Fabio's competitor Davide Thornton, but now he is publicly praising him, but not because of his goal. , but because of his determined forward thrust.

This is another meaning that Mourinho conveyed to Fabio. He was not praising him because of his goals, but because of his forward penetration and his forward consciousness, especially at the last moment. He moved forward without giving up. This is what Mourinho admires most and praises him.

At this moment, Fabio's whole heart was filled with honey. He finally understood why his teammates were so desperate just now, because only after fighting for their lives and defeating their opponents, they could experience that feeling. A joy after a difficult victory.

The sense of accomplishment from worrying about gains and losses to finally holding it in the palm of your hand is really beyond words.

And for the first time, Fabio really enjoyed the excitement and excitement of fighting hard with his teammates, fighting together until the last minute, and then reaping the fruits of his efforts and winning the game. He found that although it was only It happened once, but he was a little obsessed with the feeling.

This was the first time that he identified with the character and temperament of the Red Rebels, and he even became a little obsessed with them.
