Chapter 533 UEFA Cup Final (1)

Chapter 533 The UEFA Cup Final ([-])

In the next round of the league, Fan Shang dispatched an all-substitute lineup, so that some players who didn't play often had a chance to practice.

Even so, Valencia did not let the opponent take advantage of it, and finally defeated Malaga at home 2:0 without bloodshed.

After this league is over, it will be the final of the UEFA Cup. The opponent is the Bundesliga powerhouse Dortmund. To be honest, Dortmund also made a lot of signings last summer. The most expensive signing was from Parma, the seven sisters of Serie A. The high price of the euro bought the Brazilian striker Amoruso, and then bought the Czech center Jan Koller from the Belgian giant Anderlecht for more than 2500 million euros, and brought Everton from the Brazilian Corinthians for 1000 million euros. The classic transfer is to snatch the German rising star Kyle in the competition from Bayern Munich. Maybe Dortmund doesn't feel much now, but Vincent knows that this Kyle is Dortmund's future captain and spiritual pillar.

In the Bundesliga, teams that can spend tens of millions on signings are really rare. Dortmund spent tens of millions, just hoping that the team can replicate its former glory. Sure enough, the money was not wasted. Now Dortmund ranks first in the Bundesliga. And in the UEFA Cup, this is also the final. If Dortmund may win the double this year.

Now Dortmund's lineup is really good. The two veterans in the defense, Koller and Warnes, are a bit old, but they have a lot of experience. The two full-backs Evan Nielsen and Dede are both Brazilians. The defensive ability is not very good, but the assist ability is nothing to say.

The midfielder includes the old German international footballer Ruyter and Rikken, both of whom are well-known German players. Together with the young Czech genius Rosicky and the Brazilian Everton, the midfielder is not weak.

Forwards Jan Koller and Amoruso are both sharp weapons for attacking the city, especially Amoruso. Although he may not be ranked in the Serie A, but in the Bundesliga, he is simply calling the wind and calling the rain. He has been in the game since the first round. Bundesliga's top scorer list.

There are still quite a few players who can be named, and they cannot even enter the main lineup, such as German defender Heinrich, Nigerian star Oliseh, and Ghanaian player Addo. These are all sitting on the bench waiting for opportunities .

But Valencia is not afraid of these things. Valencia is definitely a self-centered team now. As long as you play your own rhythm, no matter what famous player you are or what kind of player you are, you will be defeated by Valencia. underfoot.

This game is the same, but there is good news that it seems that the local Rotterdam fans support Valencia more. Why, it is because Vincent said at the press conference after the elimination of Feynord In other words, if there will be a Dutchman to lift the trophy after winning the championship, most of the local fans will fall to Valencia for this promise.

But for this matter, Fan Shang is not free, that is, Fan Shang's substitution quota has changed from three to two, and one of them must be reserved for Van Bronckhorst.

But it's worth it, Van Bronckhorst is a panacea after all, and it won't be a big problem to replace him if there is a shortage of people there.

Dortmund used a 442 lineup in today's game, goalkeeper Lehmann, four defenders Evan Nielsen, Warnes, Koller and Dede, four midfielders, Rosicky on the right, Ruyter and Rickon Sitting in the middle, Everton is on the left, and the two forwards Jan Koller and Amoruso are high and fast.

Of course, Valencia will not give up the 361 formation. There is no change in the midfield. The six midfielders are those six people, and the center is also Tony. It is just that Fan Shang has made some adjustments on the defense line. De Las, who played well in Feynord's game, was placed in the starting lineup, with Ayala, Lucio and De Las's three central defenders, and the goalkeeper was still Canizares. .

Vincent was very pleased to see that there were more fans wearing white jerseys than yellow jerseys. After all, it was a very good thing for Valencia to be able to create such an atmosphere.

For this game, Fan Shang had nothing to say before the game. This kind of final really does not need to be mobilized. After reaching this point, no one does not want to go further. If there is too much talk, it is better to let the players rest more.

There is also Otti, seeing the hope of aspiring to Europe, Otti also spent a lot of money. If Valencia can win the Triple Crown this season, the prize money will also be doubled.

No one can resist the temptation of doubling the prize money. As long as you fight this game, you can double the prize money for the whole year. There are still people who are not active in this kind of thing, and no one will make it difficult for them.

The same is true for Dortmund. Why did the club spend so much money? Isn’t it for the team to achieve good results? Now the league championship is just around the corner, and the UEFA Cup also has great hope. They also don’t need to be mobilized. Dortmund’s The players are also eagerly waiting for the start of the game one by one.

The referee and assistant referee of this game are both Portuguese, because the two teams do not have a Portuguese player, and the fourth official is Finnish, and there are also no Finnish players in the two teams.

Before this game, Vincent and Dortmund's current head coach Sammer shook hands cordially. To be honest, Vincent is not as old as Sammer, but in the circle of football coaches, Sammer is really good. He can be regarded as a junior among the juniors. He took up the coach of Dortmund within a few years after retiring.

I don't know whether it is because of Sammer this year or because of the success of signings. Anyway, Sammer has led Dortmund so far so far.

And now some European media are still rumoring that Summer may be the second Vincent, who may go to win the championship as soon as he is born, and Vincent was a UEFA Cup back then who stabilized his handsome position, and Summer needs to do the same now.

After the two separated, the two teams were about to start the match. Today's game is a confrontational game. Dortmund are all players who like to attack from the midfielder to the full-back, except for the two central defenders. Stay behind, and everyone else basically goes back to participate in the attack.

The same is true for Valencia. They have three central defenders to defend and the rest to participate in the offense. In this way, how the two teams will decide the outcome today is to see which team can break the deadlock first.
