The England Football Cup (The-Football-Association-Challenge-Cup), referred to as the FA-Cup, is the most important cup in England and the oldest football game in the world. It has a long history and is of great significance in the hearts of English fans.
This event represents the football culture and history of England.
Before 2000, the FA Cup was always considered by England fans to be a more important game than the top league, but in the new millennium, many people think that the FA Cup is not as important as before. They think that the Premier League and the Champions League are better than the FA Cup. The value is much higher.
There are two reasons.
The second is the influence of coaches from other countries, such as the French. The French cup is not very good, so they take it for granted that the FA Cup in England is meaningless.
There are two reasons, so the influence of the England FA Cup gradually weakened.
But for the English fans, the FA Cup is still very meaningful, this is the tradition of English football, is full of distinctive culture and historical heritage, and is an extremely glorious history, almost every FA Cup is extraordinary The significance of this is that many English fans will forget that the team they support defeats their powerful opponents in the league, but they will not forget to defeat the strong team in the FA Cup.
The national cup competition is like a hotbed of upsets. The FA Cup is a perfect performance of this feature. According to the FA Cup system, the victory and defeat are all a decision, and the opponents, home and away are all decided by the lottery. In such a system, there are often upsets of low-level league clubs over high-level league clubs.
Every year the FA Cup is played from August.
Before the formation of the Premier League, the top league clubs must also participate in the FA Cup from the first round. However, considering the European League and various events such as the League and the League Cup, high-level league teams participate in the FA Cup from the first round. The schedule is really too dense, so the FA made some changes to the tournament, and the Premier League and the League One teams started playing on the third lap after Christmas.
On the third lap, the top 32 games, 64 teams will participate.
In addition to the 44 teams in the Premier League and the Premier League. In the first two laps of the low-level league club before Christmas, only 20 teams can be decided to continue to participate in the game, which shows the cruelty of the FA Cup elimination.
After the game with Norwich, Derby County started preparing for the FA Cup.
Wan Sheng made the team make a lot of preparations for the game, this is because the club chairman Gil Smith is not so good. Derby County has drawn a Premier League team, Tottenham Hotspur, and is playing away.
Wan Sheng was very impressed with Tottenham.
When he left Manchester United, he first went to Manchester City to find a coaching job, after failing. I went directly to North London, Tottenham Hotspur Club. That experience was not a good memory. At the time, Tottenham Hotspur young coach Alex Inglethorp did not even read his resume. . Only knowing that it is Chinese, he directly rejected him.
That guy has racial discrimination.
No matter where you are, a guy who has racial discrimination will never make a good impression, especially as a target of discrimination. In general, Wansheng does not feel very good for that guy. He originally thought it would be difficult to intersect Alex Inglethorp in this life, because the opponent is just a youth team coach, as long as he does not coach Tottenham. Naturally, I will not deal with Alex Inglethorp, but I did not expect that the world is fickle-now Derby County is going to play against Tottenham. Alex Inglethorp happens to be the acting coach. One.
In fact, Tottenham's situation this season is not very good. The Tottenham Hotspurs club dismissed coach Hoddle in September due to the team's disappointing results.
Hoddle went through two seasons in Tottenham. Last season, Tottenham ranked only 10th in the Premier League. At the beginning of the season, Hoddle spent 11 million pounds to bring three forwards-Postiga, Kanut and Za. Mora, but the performance of the three are not satisfactory.
"Glen (Hodel) and I talked tonight. After two disappointing results in the season, we made an important investment in the summer in order to give us a better chance of success this season. Unfortunately What ’s more, at the beginning of the season we got the worst record since the establishment of the Premier League. "
After dismissing Hoddle, Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy said.
"With the tedious results of the second half of last season, the current lack of progress and any obvious improvement is unacceptable. This is a crisis moment. The board and I should maintain absolute confidence in the success of the head coach, but I am sorry We cannot accept it. This is not an easy decision, but we are determined to see the club ’s success and we must move forward now. "
At that time, Tottenham ranked third in the bottom of the Premier League. Prior to this, Hoddle had only scored 4 points in the 6 games.
"Glen occupies a special place in the club. Today's decision has not changed. He is one of our greatest players. Egret Lane always welcomes him. I also hope to personally thank him for his determination and promises, and hope he can live well OK. We will be looking for a new head coach. This is a crucial appointment, and we will use the necessary time to make the best choice. "
Shortly after Daniel Levy's speech, the Tottenham Hotspur Club announced that caretaker coach David Plett would temporarily serve as Tottenham Hotspur with youth director Alex Inglethorp. Head coach.
The two have been in charge of the team for three months. With their fairly gorgeous lineup, good adjustment and leadership skills, the two have improved Tottenham's performance, but now Tottenham Still ranked fifth from the bottom of the league, still not completely out of the relegation circle.
Now in the FA Cup, Derby County encountered Tottenham Hotspur, and Wan Sheng also met Alex Inglethorp again.
This may be fate
"The purpose of our participation in the FA Cup is to try to achieve better results. I will not give up this cup. Our first opponent is not very good, Tottenham Hotspur, a Premier League team, their current The results are not very good, but their lineup is indeed very strong. But I still want to beat this opponent, I also quite have the strength you have! "
Wan Sheng said solemnly to the players.
"This is the FA Cup in England, there is nothing impossible, not to mention Tottenham Hotspur, even if we meet Manchester United and Arsenal, we will work hard to fight for it! The FA Cup is In this way, it is normal for low-level league teams to eliminate high-level league teams, and we should do our best to do so! I believe everyone can do it! "
The players were surprised when they heard Wan Sheng.
Before participating in the League Cup, Wan Sheng said one sentence, "It's good to be a trainer", but I didn't expect the FA Cup, but asked to play as much as possible, especially those foreign players, such as Ribery, Ziegler, etc., I don't quite understand why Wan Sheng should resolutely play the FA Cup, but most English players still understand that the FA Cup is of great significance to the English club. This is not a cup that is easy to give up.
But the first game was against Tottenham Hotspur. Whatever Tottenham Hotspur's performance is now, it is definitely a real strong team. They are the rivals of the same city in North London Arsenal, and they are fully capable and Arsenal. Bye bye wrist.
Can such opponents overcome them?
Wan Sheng looked at everyone's performance and said seriously, "There is nothing surprising, I hope everyone can do their best. Our opponents are strong, but we must remember, we are also strong! At the beginning of the season, I told you to For the championship, how many of you really believe? "
All players bowed their heads, they really did not believe it, after all, the team was still relegated last season.
"But what about now?" Wan Sheng's voice continued with a turn. "Now we are the first in the league! We used our results to prove that we are a strong team. Now we are just meeting Tottenham in the FA Cup. Is n’t it more difficult to beat them than to win the league first? You think about which one is more difficult. We only need one game, ninety minutes, and working hard for ninety minutes, the victory is ours! "
"Think about how happy the fans will be if we eliminate Tottenham in the FA Cup and how surprised those media will be!"
"I like the feeling of victory, especially the victory over the strong teams! I think you guys will also like it, am I right? Everyone loves victory, right!"
"Yes" the players sporadicly made a sound ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Wansheng shouted, "Again! We all like victory, right!"
"Correct!"
This time it was a lot more tidy and the sound was louder.
Wan Sheng nodded in satisfaction, "You have to remember that football is about pursuing victory. We have to take every opponent seriously. As long as we participate in the game, victory is the only goal. I want to beat every opponent and want to take To every champion, you must also think! This may be a bit extravagant, but we must do our best for this goal to be the best! "
"Now what is blocking us is Tottenham Hotspur. We are going to defeat them and eliminate them. Let everyone see that we can also eliminate the Premier League team!"
This day's training ended in Wan Sheng's passionate voice. (To be continued ...)
