Chapter 151 Opponents (3200 Monthly Pass Plus Changes)
Everton's home stadium, Goodison Park, has a very long history. It was built in 1892 and has a history of 110 years.It is the first stadium with double-decker stands on all sides, and also the first stadium in the league to use an underground heating system. In the past, it was considered a fairly "modern" stadium.But now it looks somewhat lackluster against the backdrop of a bevy of "five-star" courses.
The stadium can only accommodate 4 people and cannot be expanded due to architectural constraints on the site.If you want to get more attendance, you have to use a bigger stadium. The Liverpool city government once persuaded Everton and Liverpool to share the Stanley Park stadium, just like the Milan duo.But unsurprisingly, the proposal was rejected by the two sworn enemies.
So Everton is still at Goodison Park.
This stadium has long been integrated into every corner of Everton's history, and it has also been integrated into the minds of every "Toffee" fan.In their hearts, they do not envy Manchester United, which owns the "theatre of dreams" Old Trafford, nor do they envy Arsenal, which has received huge investment to build a new stadium, nor do they envy the same city that is building Stanley Park. Sworn enemies, not only that, but they will also laugh at the lack of funds that the 7-capacity stadium is now struggling with.
On this day, on the evening of December [-]th, Everton played at home against Zenit St. Petersburg, which was a game in the UEFA Cup group stage.
Fans filled the small Goodison Park stadium, and the singing of England fans resounded through the sky, piercing the hazy night sky.
Compared with professional England fans, Zenit fans who followed the team to Liverpool are much weaker.Amidst the uniform and rhythmic singing and applause of the England fans, they didn't know how to open their mouths to make their own voices.
In this game, from the team to the fans, Everton will eat Zenit St. Petersburg to death.
Fans don't want to make their voices heard, let alone the team...
※ ※ ※
Chen Yingxiong and his teammates are listening to the head coach's final instructions in the humble locker room of the visiting team.
"We trained for a week, for what? This moment! For us, this is a very critical game. If we lose, I can't guarantee that we will be eliminated, but the probability of elimination is very high That's the truth. So it has to be won. If you guys want to play in the knockout stages..."
He cast a meaningful look at Chen Yingxiong.
Chen Yingxiong held his head high and clenched his fists while listening to the head coach's speech.
"The opponents are strong, and they are playing at home. But they are not without flaws. They need to fight on two fronts, and the domestic league schedule is also very dense, so they cannot be distracted by two fronts at the same time. What's more, they still have a A Uefa Cup group stage, for them, this is not a decisive battle of life and death to determine the final fate. But for us, this is!"
"So as long as we play [-]% of our strength and face a half-hearted opponent, we are capable of winning this game!"
※ ※ ※
Moyes is very serious in explaining to his men those few threatening Zenit players.
"Arshavin is the team's number one star and Russia's Footballer of the Year. He is very good, fast, good at dribbling, and at the same time very threatening with long shots and crosses. So the defense against him must be all-round, don't Let him easily bring the football up, don't give him space - he has a relatively large range of activities, no matter where he appears, the defense line must be arranged as soon as possible!"
"Tymoshchuk and Domingo seem to be the central axis of Zenit. They defend one by one and attack the other. We need to cut off the connection between the two, so that Zenit can only make long passes forward in the backcourt, while It is impossible to pass through the ground to cooperate with the fight, so our defensive pressure will be much less!"
"As for Scott, he has excellent height and outstanding air defense ability, but he turns slowly. This is his Achilles' heel. We need to hit the ground more and less in the air. The main offensive strategy is to hit behind them and try more direct passes. It doesn’t matter even if you get cut off, keep passing straight! As long as there is one success, we will win! And they will definitely want to win this game in the away game. There will be more time in the game. There are more gaps for us to take advantage of, a lot of throughs!"
Unlike at the press conference, this time he mentioned Chen Yingxiong.
"Their center forwards are very tall, and their headers are also good, so you two, Lescott and Yabo, pay a little attention."
The captain of the team, Yabo, nodded, and Lescott said with a smile, "Don't worry, boss! That kid doesn't want to score a goal on top of me!"
Lescott, who has been selected for England's adult national team, is now full of confidence. His future is unanimously optimistic by many experts, who believe that he will very likely become the backbone of the England national team's defense in the future, taking over Rio Ferdinand and the class of John Terry et al.
Against a striker from a Russian team?He felt no pressure, even though the information showed that the center was 1.9 meters tall and weighed 93 kilograms.
But that doesn't explain anything.Lescott knew that it was not height and weight that determined the outcome, but more and more complicated things. In his opinion, the big stupid man didn't have any of these things...
※ ※ ※
When "Welcome our great player—" came on the live broadcast, the cheers increased and players on both sides in the tunnel knew it was time to go out.
Of course, the home team announcer only introduces the players of the home team.
So the cheers came and went, but they were all dedicated to the home team players.
The players of Zenit St. Petersburg walked beside the Everton players, playing full green leaves and supporting roles.
Chen Yingxiong raised his head and looked at the stadium stands, which was full of seats. Looking around, it was blue.
He is by no means a complete stranger to Everton.When two Chinese overseas players Li Tie and Li Weifeng played for Everton in the past, the team's chest advertisement still had the word "Kejian" in Chinese.At that time, because there were two Chinese players playing for Everton, the Chinese media paid a lot of attention to this team.
Now, with Li Tie and Li Weifeng leaving one after another, Everton has gradually disappeared from the sight of the Chinese media, and has gradually become an ordinary Premier League team, no longer enjoying any special treatment.
Chen Yingxiong has very limited knowledge about this team. He only knows that they have played for two Chinese national footballers, and the head coach seems to be quite famous...
But he doesn't think it's important, knowing his opponent...that's the job of the manager, he just needs to score goals.No matter who the opponent in front of him is, no one or a traditional giant, he only wants to score goals.
This is the center forward, what an easy job...
※ ※ ※
From the beginning in the player tunnel, Lescott set his sights on the No. 99 player.
This player is indeed very conspicuous, and he can't pay attention to it.The first is his arrogant number-99, which is the largest number a player can have...The second is his body, which looks really burly.
Lescott has an illusion-this person doesn't look like he only weighs 93 kilograms, does he?
Of course he wouldn't know. When Chen Yingxiong signed up, the club directly reported his last season's information to UEFA.UEFA did not verify it and adopted it directly.Small errors in personal data like this abound and are very common. Even in such an important and large-scale event as the World Cup, the official information is often full of errors and omissions, leaving reporters and fans at a loss, let alone the UEFA Cup.There are many teams in the participating teams that everyone has never heard of, and their players naturally don't care whether the information is true or not.
Now Chen Yingxiong weighed almost [-] kilograms, and looked very strong, his muscles were tense, and his clothes stretched out from the contours of his muscles.
After Lescott saw this muscle, he put away a little bit of contempt, thinking that this kid is a bit unexpected...
But when he walked out of the player tunnel, Lescott curled his lips inwardly when he saw Chen Yingxiong looking around with a "curious baby" expression.
After all, he is a player from Russia, and he has never seen the world!
I heard that he is only 19 years old and was still playing in the youth league last season?Such a young man... Just like the boss said, he lacks experience, and this will be his Achilles' heel.
Seeing Chen Yingxiong who was looking around, Lescott felt that it was unreasonable for him to attach importance to him. Such an inexperienced rookie was the best to deal with.The UEFA Cup is different from your Russian Super League!boy!
※ ※ ※
Chen Yingxiong followed his teammates out of the field.
The Chinese reporters in the press box were a little excited.
"Following Li Tie, Li Weifeng and Sun Jihai, another Chinese player has finally set foot on the turf of Goodison Park!"
"Hero! Moyes doesn't know you, you must let him remember you firmly after this game!" Some reporters shouted excitedly.
It's a pity that in the noisy environment, Chen Yingxiong couldn't hear what they were shouting.In fact, Chen Yingxiong didn't even see them.He has already withdrawn his gaze from the surrounding stands, and no longer looks around like a curious baby.
When the two players shook hands, he focused on Lescott and Yabo.
Both are tall, both are black, and the physical fitness of black people is not bad.In fact, this was also the case. Lescott's body looked very strong, and Yabo was a little thinner, but he was still considered strong.The two were about the same height as him. Chen Yingxiong knew that he would be stubbornly blocked in the air, but he was not afraid.
Before the game, Advocaat showed everyone the video of Everton's game and told them who their opponents were. Yabo and Lescott were Chen Yingxiong's opponents.
He has to remember these two faces well, because they will often meet in the game.He also hopes that these two central defenders will remember their faces well, and don't misidentify them when the time comes.
When Lescott's eyes flicked past his face and turned to Arshavin beside him, Chen Yingxiong was a little upset.
Hey, your opponent is me, where are you looking!

PS, everyone is really awesome!
thank you all!
Still continue to ask for a monthly ticket!
