Chapter 358: Fear of the devil away?


After a week of rest, Notts County embarked on the journey again. In the second round of the UEFA Cup, they need to go away to challenge the Bundesliga strong team Schalke 04.
This strong Bundesliga mid-to-upper team is currently not in a good position in the Bundesliga. The promotion ranks at 13th place. Even if it is not precarious, it is definitely not a satisfactory ranking.
According to the news received before the game of Notts County, Schalke hopes to boost morale by defeating the defending champion of Notts County in the UEFA Cup, and then end the awkward record and advance in a double line.
If we simply consider Schalke 04's lineup configuration, in fact, they really shouldn't just be in this position, at least in the lower position of the first group.
But the giants have already seen it. Notts County has no need to fear a Bundesliga middle and upper team. The only thing to worry about is the terrible away atmosphere of the Bundesliga.
If in the European war, Turkey is the most unwilling away road for many clubs, because even the safety of the players cannot be guaranteed there, then there is the away road of the Bundesliga club, the atmosphere here is too scary, and it always feels like Hell in general, can play a normal level in the Bundesliga, is definitely a good player with strong psychological qualities, and if you can play exceptionally, needless to say, there is definitely the potential for superstars.
Sure enough, when the away game started, the players were disturbed by the fans of the home team in the stands. The boos were so soft that David was sitting on the coach seat and felt the cochleaes uncomfortable. It’s hard to imagine the players. How to play football on the field.
In the horror atmosphere taken away, the players are inevitably somewhat handicapped and play abnormally, and Schalke 04 at home took this opportunity, and Greek center Charlie Stasi took the two cities and led Notts in the first half. The county is over.
Loew can see that in this Devil's home, Notts County has not even played 50% of his strength. The player's experience is still not comparable to that of the giants. If he changes to a middle position, he bet that this leading It must be Notts County.
But that’s fine, it’s good for players to accept the baptism of tempering, at least the opponent they are facing now can also be pulled back after returning to the home court, and if they now encounter giants like Bayern, Knotts County is really If there is less fierceness, it is very likely that it will be beaten on the road.
During the halftime, Loew focused on adjusting the mentality of the players. In addition, through a first half, the players gradually adapted to this palpable away atmosphere and slowly played their own football. You come and go between the two sides, and there is a fight.
In the end, Notts County scored a goal each from Iniesta and Klose, and Schalke 04 high center Charlie Steas actually performed a hat trick in the whole game, and the performance was amazing. In the end, Notts County away 2 :3 lost the first round of the game.
This result was not expected by many media before the game, and the German media who clamored for letting Notts County taste the home of the German Devil were all high-spirited, not to mention the triumph at the press conference. .
But Luff's words made everyone feel bad.
"Although Notts County lost the away game, we only lost one and got two valuable away goals. As long as we go back to the Magpie Stadium we play Schalke 04 a 1:0, we can rely on the away game The advantage of scoring many goals escapes Schalke 04, I really don’t understand what you are proud of!"
That’s right, if it’s two teams that are evenly matched, then in the first round, the score is really not good to say who has the upper hand, just like Luff said, a 1:0 can solve the battle, and the general view is that The overall strength of the Premier League leader of the Notts County and the defending champion of the UEFA Cup is still better than that of Schalke 04. There is only one ball advantage. If you go to the Magpie Stadium, it is likely to be a fierce situation.
The joy that won Knotts County disappeared without a trace, and no one went to see Lef's fun again.
However, after returning to England, this game was still hotly debated. This is the first defeat of the two-line battle of Notts County this season. In the fierce Premier League, Notts County has not yet lost a goal. It!
What is the strength of Schalke 04, in fact everyone has a rough measure in mind, maybe this is a good team, but it is not so prominent in Europe, it can only be regarded as a second-line strong team, The reason why this game can win Notts County is entirely dependent on the horror atmosphere at home. Their clubs and players should really give fans 32 praises.
Notts County lost on the road, although it may not have much consequences for the promotion results, but it also exposed certain problems.
That is the lack of overall player experience.
After Hubner retired, the oldest player on the team was midfielder Deco and striker Klose.
As the chief center of the German national team, Klose, despite the battlefield and the baptism of countless competitions, has played steadily on any occasion, but his position is destined to not provide too much help to the players.
Although Deco is the oldest, his experience in the big game is not rich. Last season, he reached the final of the UEFA Cup all the way. It is his pinnacle. The group of players in Knotts County also experienced the UEFA Cup. The finals can be said to be comparable.
The most important thing is that they did not have the experience of playing with the German team last season, so this game will expose the problem.
That is to say, German football actually restrains Notts County?
More in-depth, is Knotts County unable to adapt to the horror atmosphere at the home of the German club?
Well, this is a breakthrough point that is well utilized!
Now that someone has defeated Notts County in this way, it is okay to imitate it~EbookFREE.me~ So the opponent Toffee Everton in the next game of Notts County started to use a crooked brain.
The stadium culture in Germany is fanatical, while England also does not allow much. As long as the fans create the same horrible atmosphere as the Bundesliga club, does Knotts County also directly commit the gun?
Last season was Moyes's first full season coaching Everton. Everton was helpless and once stabilized in the top four, but did not play well in the second half of the season, and finally ranked seventh.
However, this is the club’s best result in 10 years, and Moyes has won the Coach of the Year award from the English Football Coaches Association, and has become a hot young young coach, even if he can’t compare with Love and the Magic Bird. Experienced enough, it is said that Abu is also very interested in this good-looking young marshal.
However, Everton's performance this season is very sluggish. If David remembers correctly, Everton is only a difficult relegation in the end, and he can't get the result.
And Moyes was using his flexible crooked brain before playing against Notts County! (To be continued.)
