Chapter 286 Victory over Rome
You must know that although Aldair is not eye-catching in terms of appearance, position and style of play, he still won the love of Roma fans with his diligent engineering spirit. Alcode, who joined the Roma team in 1990, has always been the team The backbone and spiritual leader of the defense, and played an important role in the 2000-2001 season when the club won the Serie A championship that it had not won for 18 years.
Therefore, although Aldair is already too old, replacing him at the last time will undoubtedly stabilize the defense and strengthen the defense.However, it is worth mentioning that Capello's approach also caused the Roma team's defense to lose its final speed. Neither Aldair nor Zago and others are good at speed, let alone even if they used to be able to Now it's too old.
The only two full-backs, Cafu and Candela, who have speed, need to take on too many offensive tasks. After all, the first element of the Roma team right now is to attack to get back the score. A tie was guaranteed before, so in most cases, Cafu and others were unable to return to defense.Capello is definitely aware of such pros and cons, which shows that he is absolutely unwilling to endure a loss right now.
However, after Antoniori took the goal kick this time, it was Leeds United who grabbed the ball, which also made Capello uncomfortable for a while.
The following time turned into a tug-of-war between the players on both sides. O'Reilly, who saw the shortcomings of the Roma team, directed the players to launch a fierce attack. He was waiting, waiting for the final moment.
No.80 In the second minute, Keane dribbled the ball from the side and after completing the acceleration, Candela had no choice but to step forward and bring him down and received a yellow card.
No.804 minutes, Viduka's shot was saved by Antonioli.
No.807 minutes, after receiving a pass from Zanetti, Totti made a sudden arrow in the double-teaming of Bowyer and Alan Smith. The ball went straight to the goal, but unfortunately the ball went over the crossbar.
No. 90 minutes, 3 minutes of stoppage time, players on both sides were sweating and exhausted.
No.903 minutes, Cassano, who came off the bench, got a valuable chance to hit the goal, but was blocked by Leeds United goalkeeper Martin from a small angle.
Three whistles sounded and the game ended. Leeds United beat Roma 2:1 at home and scored three points.
Exhausted Kenny and Totti exchanged jerseys after the game. This game did not affect their friendship. On the contrary, Totti smiled and praised Kenny's strength, and joked that the second round will be held in Rome. Make Kenny look good.Kenny is convinced of this, because he naturally knows the power of the Roma team at home.
In the end, Kenny scored twice to help the team win the game and won the title of the best player of the game, and he once again became the object of discussion in European football.So far, Kenny has scored seven goals and two assists in nine games without the end of the two rounds of the group stage, leading the UEFA Champions League scorer list, two goals higher than No.2 Shevchenko, and The opponents that Leeds United will face in these two rounds are all powerful, one of the top giants!This is simply phenomenal performance!
Faced with such an astonishing performance by such a 21-year-old striker, many giants, regardless of whether they have been traumatized by Kenny or not, have cast their eyes on him. There is no doubt that Kenny is now a shining star. Gold Mine, who has proven himself in the two top leagues of the Bundesliga and the Premier League, is undoubtedly a ready-to-use player in the eyes of the rich clubs, with extremely strong combat capabilities.
And as for the big scene?
For Kenny, who was born in the semi-finals of the European Cup, this is not a problem. Therefore, amidst the undercurrent, many clubs have intentionally or unintentionally asked Leeds United about Kenny's offer.Among them, Barcelona and Inter Milan are the two clubs with the most sincerity. Inter Milan, which currently owns Vieri and Ronaldo, is not too happy. Although the two still maintain a very strong firepower, from the 1998-99 season Ronaldo suffered frequent injuries from the beginning. In October 1998, Ronaldo injured his right knee and was sidelined for a month.Although after returning to the team, Ronaldo scored the winning goal in the UEFA Cup match between Inter Milan and Spartak Moscow, helping the team beat their opponents 10-2.
But then in December, Ronaldo injured his knee again in the Milan derby, and after returning to the team after a three-game truce, he was injured again in the European Champions Cup match with Real Madrid.In January 12, Ronaldo injured both knees in Inter Milan's Serie A match with Bologna and was sidelined for 1999 games.Despite this, Ronaldo scored 1 goals in the last 10 games of the season after his comeback in May of the same year, and scored 5 goals in 6 appearances this season.
But in the following 1999-2000 season, Ronaldo was still plagued by injuries and scored 7 goals in the 3 games he played. On November 11, Ronaldo suffered a partial rupture of the patellar tendon during the match between Inter Milan and Lecce. On November 21, Ronaldo was diagnosed with a comminuted knee soft tissue fracture and underwent surgery in Paris. This injury allowed him to rest for 11 days.
This time, it was not until April 2000, 4 that Ronaldo returned to the game after being absent for 12 months, and represented Inter Milan again in the Italian Cup final, but in the 4th minute of the game, Ronaldo fell while trying to pass, The patellar tendon ruptured again.The injury kept Ronaldo out of action for the next year and five months.
And this 2001-02 season, due to injuries, Ronaldo's life in Inter Milan was not satisfactory. So far, he has only played 5 times and scored 4 goals.Because the season just started on September 2001, 9, Ronaldo suffered another thigh strain in the UEFA Cup match between Inter Milan and Romania Brasov.The same situation happened to Vieri on the other side. In September 21, it was because he and his striker partner "Ronaldo" did not return from injury, which caused Inter Milan to lose both in the Champions League play-offs and the European Super Cup final.
In September 2001, when the season just started, Vieri missed the team's game for 9 months due to a heel injury.Until not long ago, on November 2, Vieri returned from injury in Inter Milan's game against Roma and played the whole game.
Therefore, for Inter Milan, they continue to find a striker who is ready to use, has a big scene experience, and preferably has a lot of room for development. After all, no one wants to buy it at a high price and just use it for two years. It's peak time.In the opinion of Inter Milan chairman Moratti, Kenny is an excellent candidate. No matter how you look at it, he has a bright future, and he is an Italian international. There is no situation where he does not adapt to the atmosphere of the league.
After all, the few young strikers in the team are not too eye-catching. Although Mohamed Karon has given a satisfactory performance after returning from loan this season, he contributed two goals in the first game of the season Helping Inter Milan beat Perugia, during the period when Ronaldo returned to the factory for overhaul, Caron, as an unknown dick, qualified to support Inter Milan's striker.And another teenager, as the star player of the 01 World Youth Championship, landed in Meazza's Adriano in August this year. Although he made his debut at the Bernabeu with a free kick with a speed of more than 8KM, he opened the door of Real Madrid. .But Adriano, who was only 160 years old, did not get a few chances to play. The only goal in the league was to come off the bench to kill Venice. Therefore, Adriano was loaned to Fiorentina during this winter break.
Therefore, in view of this situation, Inter Milan is in urgent need of a strong striker. There are even rumors that Moratti has offered Leeds United a transfer fee of as much as 3000 million pounds, only to take Kenny away at the end of the season, because in It seems to them that if Kenny can experience a successful World Cup trip, then there is no doubt that his value will soar again.As far as the current situation is concerned, this powerful new European champion is definitely capable of overcoming obstacles in the World Cup and aspiring for the Hercules Cup.
At the same time, another giant, Barcelona, is also Kenny's sincere suitor. Barcelona, which ended the Dream Dynasty, has been mediocre in recent years. 1997 and 1998 league champions.But because Van Gaal advocated the introduction of a large number of Dutch players at that time, from the defensive Cocu to the forwards Kluivert and Van Fangzo were all star Dutchmen, so Barcelona was also nicknamed the "Dutch team".
Prior to this, Van Gaal eventually lost control of the team's locker room. As we all know, it was because of Van Gaal's constant disputes with the players on tactical issues, which affected the morale of the team, and the discord with some stars also made Van Gaal very indifferent to the players. Word.So when Barcelona won the La Liga championship in 2000, Barcelona was only No. 2. Van Gaal announced his resignation and criticized the players at the press conference for their lack of quality and inability to strive for success.After Van Gaal, who failed to make further progress for the club, left, Barcelona entered a period of decline. The league once dropped to No.15, and even lost the Champions League seat many times.
Therefore, the calls for change within Barcelona are getting louder and louder. Laporta seeks to become the club's chairman. He said that after being successfully elected, he will start to make changes for Barcelona and will acquire Brazilian superstar Ronaldinho. Barcelona brought revival again.Therefore, the Dutch players who have occupied Barcelona's main force for many years obviously have no place in the Barcelona team in the future anyway, and re-buying influential stars has become a top priority.
Kenny is undoubtedly a very good choice.
