Chapter 338: Century Holding Hands

Chapter 339
On the afternoon of August 7th, British local time, the 2005 Community Shield Tournament will start at the Cardiff Millennium Stadium.
The majestic Cardiff Millennium Stadium has distinctive modernist architectural features. The angular steel and iron bones all demonstrate the beauty of modern architectural art. This is the second largest sports field in the world with movable covers, and even their The turf can be moved, so in addition to various sports competitions, concerts, exhibitions and other activities can also be held here. This year, it has become the venue for the first indoor competition of the World Rally.
Before entering the stadium, you can feel the fanaticism of the fans. The majestic singing and the ups and downs of people wave after wave, and the atmosphere of the game is very warm.
As a warm-up before the start of the league, whether the Community Shield can win the championship is of secondary importance. The main purpose is to drill the lineup and test new players. This can be seen from the six substitutions for each side.
But today's game both sides obviously have ideas about the championship, which can be seen from the formation of troops.
Ancelotti did not send Sneijder, Ribery, Essien and other players who are in urgent need of competition experience to improve themselves and integrate into the team, but chose the experienced veterans such as Figo and Makelele.
The opposite is also the main force. The old guys, such as Giggs and Scholes, who have to accurately allocate every minute of the game to every minute of the game, are also all starting, and there is no meaning to examine the rookie lineup.
Although everyone is paying great attention to the first game of the new season, for people like Kaka, Figo, and Sheva who have been rolling on the turf of the Champions League finals many times, this scene is really not. What’s up, and in Kaka’s view, Torres, Maicon, Lucio and others played for the new team for the first time. It is understandable that they are so nervous, but he really can’t figure out why Terry and Joe Cole are so old in the Premier League Does the bird look worried too?
Kaka kicked the ball Torres had kicked to Joe Cole and asked by the way: "Joe, what's the matter? You guys look nervous?"
"Kaka, don't you really know?" Joe Cole stepped the ball under his feet, obviously not in the mood to play any pre-match games, "You haven't watched the news these days?"
"What news?" Shevchenko roared, "Fernand stayed overnight at Kaka's house or did they share a hair stylist?"
Kaka:...
Torres: "...My family hasn't moved yet, what's weird about staying at Kaka's house for a few days?"
"The English newspapers are really amazing. I knew that a group of evil spirits lived in Fleet Street before. I didn't expect it to be worse than the rumors." Sneijder sighed and then complained, "They went to the outside of my house. Trash can! What do you want to find in it? Big hemp or conch? Do I look like an addict?"
Makelele took off his earplugs and said loudly: "No, no, no, they didn't look for anything, but they can make big news if they find anything, so you have to pay attention, guys, avoid fainting, cigarette butts, Underpants and the like should be handled with caution-of course, if you don’t mind if they appear in the headlines of an English newspaper the next day, you can also treat them as if I didn’t say anything. Finally, this is what you will face in the future. Life, so welcome to the Premier League."
"What's this? You haven't seen it even more powerful." His Dutch fellow Van Persie suffocated his mouth and motioned to Joe Cole to kick the ball to himself, while continuing the topic, "the reason why they are nervous is that Because where we are now is the south dressing room of the Cardiff Millennium Stadium."
"South locker room?" Sneijder said, "What's special about the south locker room?"
Maicon, Lucio, Ribery and others also looked over.
Knowing the situation, he immediately babbled.
"Oh my God, you guys haven't watched the news? Right now there is almost arguing about this outside."
"Cardiff Millennium Stadium has a famous South Locker Room spell."
"Seventeen finals have been held here. Fourteen of the winning teams used the North locker room... Do you think that at least three teams from the South locker room have won? There is nothing to be surprised about. But do you know what they did during the three wins? A victory is a trivial second division promotion play-off. The one who won is the Stoke City team from the South Clothes Room. They invited the local Welsh artist Vika He painted a seven-foot-long mural of a phoenix, a running horse, and the sun for the Nanyi Room to hide the curse. That's right, it's the one behind Frank."
"The two other victories in the South Dressing Room were created by Arsenal early. In order to break the spell, they specially invited a Feng Shui master from China to advise them. Not only did they change the layout of several facilities, but also inside. They performed mysterious Chinese magic tricks, and then they really defeated their opponents here twice in a row, but just when people thought that the curse had been completely broken by Arsenal, they lost again to Manchester United in the Community Shield Cup, so The curse of the South Clothes Room at the Millennium Stadium continues..."
"Do you think that Arsenal are really unlucky, every time they are drawn to the South locker room? But in fact, the FA does not follow the lottery when allocating the locker room, but according to the'Southern team uses the South locker room, North The team uses the north dressing room's tradition. Unfortunately, Manchester United is a northern team, while London is located in the southeast of England, so the south dressing room is almost exclusively prepared for southern teams like Arsenal and Chelsea. In addition, even this In this game, our opponent is not Manchester United but Arsenal. It will still be us who will use the South dressing room, because Arsenal is in North London and Chelsea is in South London."
A group of people looked at each other, and the atmosphere became a bit strange.
Most of the people who play football are superstitious, especially because there are many followers. Shinto things are very popular among players, so there are many strange-looking rules. For example, women cannot ride in the same car with the team before the game. You can’t touch trophies, etc. As for the players’ personal superstitions, there are even more little superstitions. Which side of the socks must be worn first, which foot must first step into the court before going on the field, and what color tie the coach must wear...
England’s most famous metaphysical example comes from their opponent Manchester United in this game. In 1999, the Red Devils reversed Bayern in the last three minutes and were lucky to win the triple crown. After the game, Ferguson said in an interview that it must have been Bath in those three minutes. Sir Bee did something in the sky.
Why are you so swearing? Because the 1999 Champions League final was the 90th birthday of Sir Busby...
Seeing that the atmosphere is getting worse and worse, Kaka couldn’t help but laughed:
I’ve heard of the Community Shield Curse. It’s said that all teams that won the Community Shield Cup will never make it to the League Championship. This argument……"
"Yes!" Glen Johnson patted his thigh. "So even if this game is lost, it's okay. You can avoid the Community Shield Curse..."
"So your goal in this game is to lose the game, isn't it, gentlemen?" Ancelotti didn't know when he came in, and only then did he slowly insert everyone's topic.
Glen Johnson turned stiffly and looked at Ancelotti behind him, "...BOSS, I didn't mean that."
Ancelotti did not look at him again, but slowly scanned the other players, "Whoever thinks we should lose this game can raise it now. I can send him to the reserve team to report. It doesn't matter if you lose."
A group of people naturally dare not let out a fart.
"I don't care about the South locker room curse or the Community Shield Cup curse. I have only one requirement for this game: victory, victory!" Ancelotti sullenly said, "We invested 200 million yuan this summer. ! Our salary is the highest of all football players in the world! We have three world footballers! Why are we going to take that shit-like runner-up? Oh, I forgot, there is no runner-up in this game, only winners and Loser! So, which one do you want to be now? Lost the game stubbornly, and then comfortably push the reason to that shit-like curse?"
"John Terry! Ricardo! One of you is the captain and the other is the most expensive person on the team. Tell me your choice!"
"We will win! BOSS!" Terry said loudly, "Manchester United must step over my corpse to score a goal!"
"Very well, how about you? Kaka!"
"I will break the curse like shit, not by a famous artist's mural, nor by a Chinese Feng Shui master, but by my feet and fighting spirit!" "So, tell me now, our goal What is it?"
"Victory! Victory! Victory!"
A group of people rushed out of the locker room like hungry wolves, and met Manchester United in the player tunnel.
Keane, wearing the captain's armband, walked directly to Kaka.
Sheva, Torres, Maicon and others immediately gathered around, and the referee immediately stepped forward if the situation was not right.
"Roy, what do you want to do?"
"Don't be nervous, I won't eat him again, I just came to say hello to the World Footballer."
Kaka also motioned to his teammates to step aside, and looked at Keane without fear, "How do you want to say hello? With your fist? I don't mind squeezing you off the court."
"No, no, 80 million, I can't afford to beat you to death, although I want to kill you is as easy as crushing a little chicken," Keane said, "I'm curious, that Russian How much did people give you so that you would rather leave a championship team like Milan to lick his PY?"
"Chelsea gave me the highest annual salary in the world, and I will bring them all the championships they can get," Kaka stared at Keane's eyes, speaking softly but sharply, "just from this game."
"If you can leave alive..."
"Okay, Roy," although eating melons next to him was very refreshing, the referee could only interrupt when they saw that they were getting worse and worse. "This is a football stadium, not a boxing ring. If you can, I’ll even buy you a bet, but now, I’ll play the game honestly, otherwise I don’t mind asking you to come back for a bath in advance, and you, Kaka, I don’t I think it’s a good thing to provoke Keane. This will not only make my job more difficult, but it will also cause trouble for yourself.

"Then what should I do? Please forgive me? To a defeated player?" Kaka shrugged, "Also, you really don't have a good vision, Mr. Referee, buy him a bet? The English are so rich. ?"
The referee was so angry that he looked at the popular football king who was portrayed as a gentleman on the Sunshine Youth Stadium.
...
"The game has started, Manchester United will serve first."
"Manchester United has a 442 formation with a prismatic position.
Forwards: Rooney, Ruud van Nistelrooy;
Midfielder: Giggs, Cristiano Ronaldo, Scholes, Fletcher;
Defenders: Gary Neville, Ferdinand, Sylvester, O'Shea;
Goalkeeper: Van der Sar.
Van der Sar is a newly introduced player this summer. He and Park Ji-sung are the two most expensive signings for Manchester United this summer. The transfer fee for South Korean players is 7 million euros, while Van der Sar has only 2 million-who can think of this Was it the handwriting of the Premier League champion last season? Zambrotta's transfer fee alone allows Manchester United to buy fifteen goalkeepers. "
"Chelsea has a strange 4-2-2-2 formation.
Forwards: Shevchenko, Torres;
Front waist: Kaka, Figo;
Midfielder: Makelele, Essien;
Defenders: Maicon, Lucio, Terry, Zambrotta;
Goalkeeper: Cech.
Ancelotti actually sent two sweeping midfielders without arranging a full-back. This is the most unexpected place. As a result, their wing attack must rely on two full-backs to promote. When the full back assists forward, Makelele and Essien must take on more important defensive responsibilities.
Figo seems to be used as a midfielder by the Italian coach, but both he and Kaka have the attributes of being able to achieve. Therefore, the position of Chelsea's two midfielders should be very flexible and cannot be used as an ordinary midfielder. treat. "
Manchester United is playing Giggs' side.
Already close to thirty-two years old, Wang Laoji dribbled the ball on the left side and was still very competitive, especially at the beginning of the game, when he had sufficient physical strength, he was actually much sharper than Cristiano Ronaldo on the other side.
"With the cooperation of the two veterans, Giggs and Scholes made two passes after two consecutive passes. Ruud van Nistelrooy headed for the goal, but it was a pity that Cech confiscated the ball with both hands. "
Cech kicked the ball out and the football fell to the midfield.
Kaka took the ball directly from under Keane's crotch, but Keane guarded this foot early and quickly closed his feet to block the ball, but Kaka had already come to him and he would block the ball. One swipe to his left, he rushed out.
Keane chased wildly behind and naturally couldn't catch up, but Kaka still hung a tail behind.
"Kaka is dribbling the ball on the side, C. Ronaldo is chasing after him, it seems that the speed is not much slower..."
Cristiano Ronaldo took some advantage in starting. When Kaka just took the ball forward, he was catching up from behind. He has reached the fastest speed. Kaka not only started from scratch, but also carried a ball under his feet. , The two actually fought a little bit in speed.
But although he can barely keep up, unless Cristiano Ronaldo puts a shovel behind his back, he will definitely be unable to stop Kaka.
Kaka gave Sheva a meniscus pass directly on the ribs of the penalty area.
This is the position at a 45-degree angle in the penalty area, the most difficult position to pass, and the position that makes Manchester United feel the most emotional.
The football flew to the goal, looking at the direction and was ready to go towards the bottom line, but when it came to the small penalty area, it took an exaggerated bend, bypassing the two guards of Ferdinand and Sylvester, and came to the left of the goal. .
Shevchenko rushed in, jumped high, and headed the goal.
The Chelsea man in the stands jumped up, ready to celebrate, Ferguson on the sidelines sank, and the action of chewing gum was terrified and stopped.
But at the moment when the football was about to fly over the goal line, Van der Sar flew up and blocked the football with his right hand.
O'Shea squatted down in the back, let the football fly over his head, then quickly turned around and made a relief with his big feet.
"Manchester United escaped! Kaka's pass makes it easy to compare him with Beckham. The crosses of the two are too marked. Shevchenko's shot is also very powerful, but unfortunately Dutch goalkeeper Van der Sar responded very quickly. If this is not his accidental performance but his regular strength, then I take back what I said earlier, 15 Zambrotta can't buy such a door god..."
Sheva also kicked the turf depressedly~EbookFREE.me~ but still gave Kakabi a thumbs-up, indicating that the pass was very awkward, and the more the better.
Kaka also shook his head regretfully, turned around and walked towards his own half, and suddenly found that Ronaldo was following him to the left.
He didn't know what he was thinking, so the ghost reached out to Ronaldo.
Ronaldo took a strange look at Kaka's back, and stretched out his right hand forward and patted.
Both hands are clearly on the verge of triggering, but the cameraman on the sidelines has a full level of capturing skills and accurately captured this moment. The static image looks like Kaka is leading Ronaldo to move forward.
An ordinary way of greeting on the court is nothing unusual. Even if he knew that Kaka actually appreciates Ronaldo Ferguson, he didn’t make any messy associations, but when Ronaldo finally caught up with Kaka’s back in the future, Everyone discovered that this picture actually has an inexplicable fate.
Both enemy and friend, Century holds hands.
