I Want to Be the King of Football

Tottenham Hotspur has three well-known goalkeepers: Gomez, Friedel and Cudicini.

There is a tradition in professional football, people like to distinguish the importance of players in the team from the jersey number.

Some important numbers will never be easily given to people, such as ten, eight, four, and one.

The No. 1 jersey is the standard for the main goalkeeper, and everyone who can wear this jersey is the goalkeeper that the head coach values ​​most.

If you want to be more rigorous, it should be the time when the player number is submitted.

Manchester City’s number one jersey is England goalkeeper Joe Hart, which proves that he was indeed Manchester City’s starting goalkeeper at the time, but during the season, through the game, his position was challenged by the teenager Courtois and gradually lost his position. , Has now been completely reduced to Courtois's substitute.

The same is true for Tottenham Hotspur.

The number one jersey is Gomez, and Cudicini has always been the team's substitute goalkeeper, wearing the number 23 jersey.

This is also the regular configuration of Tottenham Hotspur in the past two or three years, but at the beginning of the season, Brazilian goalkeeper Gomez's performance has been unsatisfactory. There have been too many mistakes. Redknapp has lost confidence in him. So he introduced the American goalkeeper Friedel from the Aston Villa free transfer.

Friedel is a famous Premier League player, from Blackburn to Aston Villa, he has always performed very well.

Redknapp brought in Friedel and gave him the No. 24 jersey, which made the original substitute goalkeeper Cudicini feel the pressure, after all, he is 38 years old.

After experiencing the tempering of many giants such as AC Milan, Lazio and Chelsea, Cudicini also has his own set of survival methods, which allows him to save himself in this cruel three-person competition and still serve as a substitute. .

The most unlucky is Brazilian goalkeeper Gomez, who plummeted directly from the starting goalkeeper and became a substitute in the bench where there is no game to play.

The number one jersey in the team is like the sword of Damocles hanging over Cudicini's head, always reminding him that if he relaxes, he will be like Gomez, or even worse.

Cudicini prepared every game as if walking on thin ice.

Since Friedel is almost forty-one and his energy is limited, the American goalkeeper can only focus on the league and give all the cups to Cudicini to play, so the Italian goalkeeper's playing time is quite considerable.

He also performed very well, steadily guarding the goal for Tottenham Hotspur, especially in the FA Cup.

In the first five rounds of the FA Cup, Tottenham’s opponents were not too weak, but Cudicini’s goal was only breached twice, and three of them were zero opponents. This performance allowed Redkner to Pu continued to trust Cudicini to start the game against Manchester City, and the Italian goalkeeper also cherished this opportunity.

…

Cudicini played for Chelsea, so he knows the horror of Sudong.

From the moment the game whistle sounded, Cudicini's nerves tensed all over, and he did not dare to slack in the slightest.

He knew that his reaction was not fast enough and his body was not flexible enough, he could only make up for it with experience and focus.

When he saw the Manchester City long pass looking for Su Dong, he once again focused on Su Dong.

Ledley King was thrown away by Su Dong.

Well, this is actually normal. The central defender is very strong, but after frequent injuries, his strength is obviously not as good as before.

Gallas has been following Su Dong. This French central defender is considered the most underrated central defender in the Chelsea team. Terry said in private on more than one occasion that his best partner is Gallas, not Carvalho. .

Even if you are older, the speed is still okay.

But outside the arc of the penalty area, Gallas was blocked by Su Dong, losing steadily, making Cudicini nervous again.

Gallas’ age was there, and his body couldn’t compete with a strong guy like Su Dong, but Cudicini still believed that Gallas blocked Su Dong and prevented him from turning around. It should be possible to do it.

The French central defender has so much experience, he must know what the consequences would be if Su Dong turned around.

If he can't turn around and Su Dong can only take the ball with his back, what will he do next?

Well, Sanchez and Di Maria are following up, and these two little guys should also pay attention.

Just when Cudicini swept the sides with the corner of his eye, between the sparks and fire, he saw the ball fell in front of Su Dong, and he didn't know what magic he had used, so he stopped the ball directly to himself. He went to the right and rear of Gallas, and then turned to the right, suddenly accelerated, and rushed to Gallas' defense abruptly.

Damn it!

Cudicini was shocked.

what happened?

How could he turn around and rush over?

The Italian goalkeeper resolutely abandoned the goal and attacked.

The last defensive player has already been rushed away and is about to become a single-handed one. If you don't attack at this time, do you still have the New Year?

But as soon as Cudicini got out of the small penalty area, he saw that Su Dong had quickly rushed into the large penalty area, caught up with the ball he had just stopped, and hit the ball with his left foot without stopping.

Kudicini raised his hands high and blocked Su Dong's shooting angle.

But Su Dong's shot came too fast, and it was too fast to give him any reaction time.

When Cudicini raised his hands, he could clearly feel a hurricane penetrating through his hands.

Ruined!

The Italian goalkeeper fell on the court, and the ball was blasted into the Tottenham Hotspur goal by Su Dong in a very brutal and violent aesthetic way.

"Goallllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!"

"Pretty! Wonderful!"

"Su Dong's attack is simply unreasonable, rampant and unstoppable!"

"This goal is too cruel!"

"Galas was directly hit by Su Dong and fell back into the penalty area. Watching him blast the goal, Cudicini's attack could not stop Su Dong's goal."

"One to zero! Tottenham broke the goal in just five minutes!"

...

...

"This goal is really beautiful!"

In front of the head team coach, Tottenham Hotspur’s head coach Redknapp sighed from the sidelines and complimented.

The key to this ball lies in Su Dong's handling, which is entirely dependent on personal ability.

It can be said that Gallas was completely defeated.

Of course, this is nothing to be ashamed of. After all, there have been so many players who have been blown up by Su Dong over the years.

The most famous is Arsenal’s Senderos, who was directly overshadowed by Su Dong. Since then, the level has plummeted and is far from the outstanding performance and potential of the year.

Gallas was also battered by Su Dong this time, so after losing the ball, he sat down in the penalty area and looked very depressed.

It really takes a while to get back from such a goal.

If it is the second half, Redknapp will not hesitate to choose a substitution to replace the hidden danger of Gallas, but now it has just started, and Tottenham Hotspur team can not find Biga. Russ is a better and more suitable central defender.

"Facing a goal like Su Dong, there is basically no way."

Redknapp shook his head and walked back. This was not only for the assistant coach, but also for the players on the court, and also for himself.

Because it is really unsolvable.

Starting from Su Dong after inserting, the defensive player who can keep up with his speed is basically unlikely to compete with him physically, and is definitely at a disadvantage, and he uses his physical advantage to suppress the central defender.

The most terrible thing is that his skills at the feet are particularly good. Just that one foot directly stops the ball from mid-air to the right side of the back defense. Looking at the European football, how many people can do it?

Especially to be able to stop as right as Su Dong, just turn around, catch up with two steps, and hit directly with his left foot.

It is estimated that apart from Messi and a few geniuses with extremely delicate skills, there is really no one.

Unfortunately, Su Dong did it, and more than once.

After stopping and taking it, this is Su Dong's iconic action.

Su Dong scored in the opening five minutes, and the main central defender was blown out. This game is difficult!

Redknapp sat in the coach's bench, watching the game intently, with an extremely solemn expression.

...

...

As if to confirm Redknapp's guess.

After Sudong broke the deadlock on the court, Tottenham Hotspur players appeared a little chaos on the court.

During the game, the players' ideas were not unified, and the team began to have problems.

In the fourteenth minute, Manchester City seized the opportunity. After stealing Van der Vaart's pass in the frontcourt, the ball went to the left. Marcelo crossed the left side of the penalty area diagonally. After Di Maria broke into the left side of the penalty area to receive the ball. Forcibly got rid of the defensive player and crossed to the back point.

Sanchez followed, rushed ahead of the defensive player, and sent the ball back to the center. Su Dong rushed to the ball, swept the ball in the volley, and went straight to the goal of Tottenham Hotspur again.

Two to zero!

Everyone in Manchester City was inexplicably excited.

Everyone on the scene, including the Tottenham fans in the stands, can basically tell that Su Dong’s second goal has completely killed Tottenham Hotspur, because this line of defense was too easy to penetrate. .

If it is said that the loss of the first ball is only dependent on Su Dong’s personal performance, then the second loss is due to the tacit cooperation of the three attackers in Manchester City’s front court, Di Maria. Looking for Sanchez, Sanchez passed back to the center on the right, and Su Dong finished the final shot.

The whole process is a manifestation of Manchester City's offensive routines, relying on the teamwork of the players, and there is no personal performance of the players, but the Tottenham Hotspur defensive players are completely out of place in this process.

Especially the last shot by Su Dong, Gallas and Ledley King did not keep up with him at all, exposing too many defensive problems.

There is only one explanation, that is, Tottenham Hotspur has been completely beaten.

Especially for Gallas, after losing the first ball, his overall performance was unsatisfactory and he appeared to be out of state.

Under this circumstance, everyone on the scene, including Tottenham’s coach Redknapp, has the biggest question in their minds. It’s no longer the question of whether they can win, but how many goals Tottenham lose?

Or, can you lose a few goals?
