Chapter 459 Rest and the Outside World ([-])
Of course, it's not just Rivaldo, the dream of flying full-backs almost made the Romans crazy.
In the final between Brazil and Italy that will start on June 6, the captain of the Brazilian team, Cafu, will become another highlight among many big names in Brazil. At the age of 30 this year, he will become the first person in the history of the World Cup to participate in the championship for three consecutive times. players.
Brazil coach Felipe Scolari obviously attaches great importance to this player who made World Cup history. "I need to talk to a special player," Scolari said in his final meeting with the outside world before Sunday's game against Italy. People are Cafu. But whether we win the World Cup is not the main question. For me, Cafu is already a champion."
Scolari said that Cafu used to play a completely different role in the Roma game, but Cafu never once complained. "He defended more in Brazil than in Roma, and in the last three games we asked him to do that more and he did a great job," Scolari said. "I don't need to say anything about his status as captain: he brings security to everyone, he's fantastic on the pitch as a commander, and his dedication and humility is a great example."
Cafu's 12-year international career has seen a series of ups and downs.The Brazilian team fell into a trough after being eliminated by Argentina 1990-1 in the 8/1 finals of the 0 World Cup. Cafu's first appearance in the national team was recruited by the then head coach Falcao against Spain. It was also decided to experiment with a squad that the national team had never experimented with.After the Brazilian team was defeated by the opponent 0 to 3, Falcao was also dismissed. Obviously Cafu was called up to the national team in the chaos.
But Cafoli used his own ability to slowly establish his role in the national team and played more than 100 games for it.In the World Cup final between Brazil and Italy in 1994, Cafu replaced the injured Yurkinho in the last 17 minutes as a substitute for right back Yurkinho. In the end, the Brazilian team finally won the championship with a penalty kick. Cafu played in Brazil. The position of right back in the team is unchallenged.
Cafu also featured in six of Brazil's seven matches at the 1998 World Cup in France, missing just one semi-final against the Netherlands because of a two-book suspension.In the 7 World Cup in Japan and South Korea, he also participated in all 6 games of the Brazilian team so far.Combined with his three appearances in 2002, he has played more World Cup appearances than any other Brazilian, another record.
Cafu also said on Friday that he has no problem participating in the final against Italy as captain and that he would be happy to make history again. "It was very easy," he said. "The whole team is very good. We are a team of professionals and we know what we want. It's easy as a team leader."
Speaking of his impending greatness, Cafu said: "Fantastic, I'm just thinking now that when you get something like this, it's very important to be the first player to go to three World Cup finals in a row. ...for me it's just a World Cup record, Brazil already has a great record and it's a private trophy. I think if Brazil wins the title we'll all be kings. If that's the case, I I’m very happy, but it’s not easy.”
In addition to the smooth sailing in the Brazilian team, good things for the club have also come one after another.Roma president Sensi said on Friday that he would negotiate with Cafu and prepare to keep Cafu in the Roma team until Cafu retires.The Brazilian's performance in the World Cup has recently sent letters to Roma expressing his intention to invite Cafu to transfer, and Sensi is determined to keep Cafu in the next season and even longer.But his other Brazilian compatriot Assuncao may leave the club because of the arrival of Guardiola and Davies, and Assuncao's agent has indicated that Assuncao may go to Spain of Real Betis.
"We are preparing to keep Cafu as the basis of the team for a long time. He is a magical shape, a very good player, and an excellent person," Sensi said: We will talk about the contract after the summer, hopefully By then he had once again become world champion.In my opinion, he will play for our club until he hangs up his boots. "
As for the only Italian among the four most-watched stars, Kenny's future development prospects are also attracting attention. Originally, the ambition of Leeds United chairman Ridsdale is well known, and everyone knows this boss All kinds of loans are intended to allow Leeds United to successfully rank among the top clubs, especially after winning the Champions League trophy last season, the brand value of Leeds United can be regarded as a huge appreciation.
If you take advantage of this transfer period to win some extraordinary players, then Leeds United will undoubtedly continue to show their talents in the next season's games and look forward to the future. Therefore, the chairman should not let Kai Ni left.However, when some wealthy clubs did not give up and made a second offer after the first offer was rejected, the attitude of the top management of Leeds United became ambiguous, and they did not reject it again immediately, which also made more and more of clubs participated in the bidding.
At the same time, Leeds United's hesitation is not unreasonable. They still don't know Kenny's attitude. If Kenny really wants to go to the giants and has the idea of leaving, then Leeds United must make early plans.This is especially evident after the start of the World Cup, especially after Kenny continued to perform brilliantly and Italy reached the final.
After winning the Champions League, Barcelona's updated offer was 3000 to two million pounds. At this moment, not only Barcelona, but also Juventus and Inter Milan and other Serie A giants have raised their offers to this height.As the hottest new star in Italy today, Kenny is still far away in the Premier League. This is unforgivable by everyone. Just imagine if Kenny can accompany Italy to win the cup at the end, then taking Kenny at this price is definitely a sure profit. of.
There is no doubt that Leeds United are tempted by the huge figure that the final transfer fee is likely to be between 4000 million pounds, or even more than 4000 million pounds.Since the end of last season, the overall European transfer market in Lanzhou in 02-03 has been relatively deserted, and the momentum of player value records being refreshed every year has been terminated. Under the background of the economic crisis, most clubs are short of money and are unwilling to make large-scale investments.
Under such circumstances, if Leeds United gets such a huge amount of money, it may not be a bad thing for Leeds United to exchange Kenny for two top players.Ridsdale, who was a little hesitant about this, met with Kenny's agent in the midst of the commotion. Mendes gave a very clear and firm answer to this after Lizdal's insinuations. He clearly expressed the player's position, and Kenny did not intend to leave.
Rizdal nodded after receiving such definite news. Since Kenny has no intention of leaving, it is also a good choice for Leeds United to introduce strong reinforcements and continue to fight. What he fears most is that Kenny will be affected by other giants. If you are in Cao Ying and your heart is in Han, you will be caught off guard.
What is the third place in the World Cup?It's a consolation prize, it's a stage for a decisive battle, and it's a listless Tai Chi pusher between two losers. As the saying goes, "eating is tasteless, but discarding it is a pity."However, under the general policy of FIFA to take care of sponsorship and broadcasting, on June 6, the tasteless meal of this World Cup will make its grand debut.
If you study the history of the World Cup, you will feel very strange. Why do the teams still compete for this season? You must know that the third place in the World Cup has never been glorious. "Crown" - the crown of thorns.
The meaning of the third and fourth finals is basically zero for a confrontational sport like football.In addition to ratings, sponsorship and advertising, the losers of the semifinals will not go all out for a consolation prize.In recent years, the popular professional league has exhausted the traditional giants, let alone the false name of the third place. The proud Dutch team handed over the third place in France, which is a typical attitude of a strong team towards this tasteless.
Therefore, the third place often falls into the hands of dark horses. From this point of view, the competition for the third and fourth places in this cup is not the case. One is the Turks who have made great achievements, while the other is in the dark but unexpectedly shines brightly. The Germans, no one will be humble this time.Both teams want to use this to prove themselves again, and the battle for third and fourth places is no longer a tasteless battle. This is a battle between dragons and tigers.
In terms of strength alone, the German team is definitely above the Turkish team. This team is completely European in terms of physical strength and tactical characteristics, and still maintains a delicate style technically. The country’s still strong league is the biggest guarantee for them to maintain their strength. .As for Turkey, which is at the junction of the Eurasian continent, their European style of play makes them look like an out-and-out student in front of the Germans, but the student's own unique temperament cannot be ignored.
To a certain extent, the Turks can develop into a small German team or a small Brazilian team. If they make full use of their trans-Eurasian geographical advantage, maybe they can develop a unique team. style of play.With distinctive features, there is a direction and hope for progress. The prosperity of the Turkish Super League just reflects the improvement of the level of Turkish football, so the Xingyue Legion has a bright future.
