Chapter 335 Caught Weakness



Chapter 335 Caught Weakness

The four-time champion of Ligue [-], Lyon, is not the biggest problem facing Malaga. Their problems come from within.

The team relies on too many veterans. During the long season, it is difficult to maintain the state of the veterans, especially when entering critical moments.Malaga still retains the ultra-high intensity of the third-line battle, and many veterans can't bear it.

In the league, the Copa del Rey and the Champions League, the three fronts must be supported by veterans, otherwise Malaga's lineup may be eliminated in the knockout rounds.

In the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey, facing Manusia, Malaga performed well at home and away. They beat their opponents 3:1 in the away game, and Manusia returned without success again 4:2 at home.

However, they injured two veterans in two matchups.In the away game, Cocu strained his hamstring after breaking through and was carried off the field.According to the diagnosis after the game, Cocu needs to rest for three weeks and will definitely miss the first round of the Champions League quarter-finals.

After a week's home game, Malaga injured another general. Cafu, who has always been calm and low-key, was also injured and left the field.

He has been carrying the right forward, people ignore his age, in fact, he is already a veteran, his muscles are tight, and there are signs of a sprain.Fortunately, it was replaced early at the last moment, which did not make the injury worse, otherwise it would be more serious.

Cafu only needs to rest for two weeks, but Malaga's entire right is injured, and the frontcourt can only rely on the support of the weak Duda. The young David Silva is also on the bench. The second round of the quarterfinals lasted more than half an hour.

The right back can only rely on Balcarcer to act as the main force again. Balcarcer's problems have always been obvious, lack of concentration, and lack of strength to control a wing.

In the process of Malaga's promotion to the semi-finals of the King's Cup, the right side has been completely abolished, and the threat on the offensive end has been greatly reduced.

In the next league defeat to Athletic Bilbao, central defender De Boer was also injured.In the 70th minute of the game, De Boer limped off.

In the end, although Málaga defended the 1:0 victory, the whole team was not happy. The four main players in the backcourt were half injured. Felipe had not yet fully integrated into the team. Another central defender, Iuliano Don't play too often.

Defensive problems, offensive problems, broke out at the same time in the sprint of the season.

Manzano was stunned and didn't know how to deal with it.

"These players, why can't they handle it? Damn it, getting injured at a critical moment of the season is almost fatal." Manzano muttered quietly, and at the same time increased the amount of training. He hoped to make young people grow up faster.

Unexpectedly, the high-intensity training directly led to the injury of the players. When Miguel Angel and Eto'o fought too hard, they accidentally injured their thighs.

"Damn, it's really a bad year." Manzano was very depressed, looking at Miguel who left the field, he felt a little uncomfortable. He had to grit his teeth and get through the sprint stage of the season.

He took the initiative to carry out psychological adjustment for the players, "Guys, this is the most critical moment of the whole season. We must grit our teeth and increase the amount of training, and then show the best performance and beat any opponent. We want the championship .”

"We have an advantage of 6 points in the league, and we must not relax. We must do our best in every game and face every opponent. Don't give Barcelona and Real Madrid any chance."

"Each Champions League game is a new history for Malaga. We are the creators of history, and we must grit our teeth and stick to the past. We will become the most memorable players in Malaga's history."

Manzano consciously spoke very well, and the players seemed to be motivated, "Guys, hold on, let us get through the difficulties together, and let us win the final victory together."

"At the end of the season, let us use the championship to draw a beautiful end to today's hard work."

The players were all quiet. Lin Lian was wearing a hot towel all the time, and he didn't make any statement. Others wouldn't be excited. Most of them are old players, their legs are numb, and they still get excited in lame shoutouts?

On the contrary, David Silva and Felipe are in high spirits. They see the possibility of a championship and a change in their careers.But seeing Lin Lian's unclear attitude, they suppressed their thoughts and watched quietly.

"I know, you are all holding your breath, let's put this breath on the field, let's beat Lyon." Manzano finally concluded, "Let's go."

In the first round of the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Malaga faced Lyon away. Due to the injuries of several old players, Malaga had no advantage except for Lin Lian's absolute strength.

On the other hand, Lyon, the past few years have been the time when the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong.

Govou and Malouda are making waves in the forward line. The young Benzema has just been promoted to the first team and has already scored in the Champions League. He is the youngest player in the history of the Lyon team to score in the Champions League.

The three generals in the midfield are all the type of players who are one-handed and ten-thousand-handed. The free-kick expert Juninho Jr., the defensive champion Diarra, and the young and strong Essien, the midfielder is a steel defense.

Especially the young Essien, Manchester United and Chelsea are paying attention, and it is estimated that there will be another whirlwind of competition in the summer transfer window.

There are also players like Chris and Kakapa in the backcourt, and the overall strength is quite impressive.No wonder they were able to eliminate Real Madrid and advance to the quarterfinals.

Under the leadership of Lin Lian, the defeated remnants of Malaga made an expedition to the Gerland Stadium.

On Lyon's side, they quickly entered the state at the beginning of the game. Ge Wu and Lin Lian's old acquaintance Wiltord kept passing and broke through from the right. Balcarce couldn't stop the opponent's continuous impact.

David Silva in the frontcourt was unable to provide effective protection, and neither Simeone nor Khedira had time to help defend.

Malaga was scored 1 goal by the opponent at the beginning, and Malouda scored.Malaga lost control of the backcourt, and Juliano was in the center to direct, and there was no time to wipe his ass!

Balcarcer was in a mess, and Juanito knelt down. In less than 20 minutes, Lyon scored another goal.

Falling behind 0:2 in the opening game, it looks like a dead start, so hard to guard against!Lin Lian was also very helpless in the frontcourt. He didn't get many opportunities at all, especially the continuous follow-up of the two defensive champions, which greatly restricted Lin Lian's performance.

"Essien, hurry up." Diarra yelled, and Essien gritted his teeth and rushed over.Both of them are dark and tough, with plenty of physical strength. When the two are full-time defensive, even Lin Lian can hardly break the layout of the two.

Lyon coach Le Guin danced and cheered on the sidelines, starting 2:0, and it seems that he can continue to score goals.

In this game, his tactics fully grasped Malaga's weaknesses and played Lyon's quality.

You know, these are the two most overlooked teams that people want to draw before the game. I didn't expect the two teams to be drawn together.Both sides are rookies in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, and the outside world calls it rookies pecking each other.
