Football King Bale

At 16:00 GMT on April 11, life at the new Wembley Stadium was in full swing.

The upcoming battle here will be the second game of this season's FA Cup semi-finals, between Tottenham Hotspur and Portsmouth.

This season, due to Tottenham's excellent record, fans are very enthusiastic about watching football. Whether it is league or cup games, they are often full.

This FA Cup semi-final held at a neutral venue also attracted countless Tottenham fans to watch the game.

Originally, the tickets allocated to Tottenham and Portsmouth were almost the same, but due to the favorable location, Tottenham fans got a lot of tickets from other channels. This makes the number of Tottenham fans in the new Wembley Stadium significantly larger than the number of Portsmouth fans, and they have turned this neutral venue into their home court.

Of course, in the future, this stadium will indeed become Tottenham's home stadium for a short time.

In fact, Tottenham fans have very mixed feelings about this FA Cup match.

In the eyes of some fans, the team had just unexpectedly lost to Black Cats Sunderland a week ago, and the prospect of winning the league was unclear. In order to win the first Premier League championship and win the top league again after 49 years, the team should focus all their energy on the league. As for the FA Cup, let’s just give up.

However, another group of fans have the opposite view. They believe that since the team is in a bad situation in the league, it should go all out in the FA Cup to win the championship. After all, the FA Cup only requires two more games to win the championship. Compared with the dangers of the league, it is much easier.

This season, although the team won the League Cup, in the eyes of most fans, the quality of this championship was too poor and far inferior to the FA Cup.

At one time, Tottenham were the most successful team in the FA Cup. After winning the championship in the 1990-1991 season, they became the team with the most titles in the FA Cup with 8 titles surpassing Manchester United which had 7 titles.

However, who would have thought that that would be Tottenham's last glory in the FA Cup?

In the following 18 years, not to mention winning the FA Cup, they never even reached the FA Cup final. They watched first as Red Devils Manchester United surpassed them in winning the FA Cup, and then watched as north London rivals Arsenal also won more FA Cups than them. This makes many die-hard Tottenham fans feel very unhappy.

Now, the team has the hope of entering the finals, and even the hope of winning the championship, why not try for it?

Compared with the fierce competition and slim hope of the league championship, the FA Cup championship is undoubtedly much more realistic.

………………

It’s not that Tottenham fans don’t want to win the Premier League championship, it’s that in the past ten or twenty years, the three dominant Premier League teams, Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United, have left too painful memories for Tottenham fans.

Tottenham's only victory in the past 24 North London derbies was a 5-1 home victory over Arsenal in the 2008 League Cup. Arsenal recorded 12 wins and 11 draws in the remaining 23 games. Among them, 11 wins and 9 draws in 20 league games remain unbeaten. There have been 35 historical encounters between the two sides in the Premier League, with Arsenal having the absolute upper hand with 14 wins, 16 draws and 5 losses.

The records of Tottenham and Chelsea are not much better. They have met in 35 Premier League games. Chelsea has an absolute advantage with 21 wins, 12 draws and 2 losses. Even at White Hart Lane, Chelsea's record is 9 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses.

As for the record against Manchester United, it is an even more nightmare memory for Tottenham. Manchester United has 16 wins, 5 draws and 1 loss in the past 22 meetings between the two sides. The only victory was in the League Cup this season, when Tottenham defeated Manchester United with a difficult substitute lineup.

The last time Tottenham won at Old Trafford was back in 1989, with Lineker scoring the only goal. Since then, Manchester United has scored 19 wins and 4 draws against Tottenham in 23 home games and remains unbeaten. In the 35 historical encounters between the two sides in the Premier League, Manchester United has an absolute advantage with 25 wins, 7 draws and 3 losses, including 14 wins and 3 draws at home.

Putting aside the long term, Tottenham also suffered defeats in the first round against these three teams this season.ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм

In the fifth round of the Premier League, Tottenham, which had previously won four consecutive games, met the Red Devils Manchester United. As a result, Tottenham were defeated by the Red Devils 1:3 in the match at White Hart Lane.

In the following sixth round of the Premier League, it was Tottenham's turn to visit Stamford Bridge, and the result was even worse, losing a clean 0:3.

The loss at the Emirates Stadium was a little more exciting. In the 11th round of the Premier League, Tottenham went to the Emirates Stadium to challenge their rivals in North London. Bell's pass and shot helped Tottenham score two goals, but it was still a pity that they lost 2:3. Defeated.

With such a dismal record, and now facing these three opponents for three consecutive rounds, Tottenham fans do not dare to have the courage to mention winning the championship, even if they are having fun with Liang Jingru.

………………

Tottenham are very confident about their opponents in today's game. On the one hand, this is because Portsmouth is in a very bad situation this season. With 9 points deducted, they basically locked in a relegation spot in advance. In the previous encounters between the two sides, Tottenham undoubtedly had the absolute upper hand.

Especially two weeks ago, Tottenham defeated Portsmouth by two goals at White Hart Lane.

For the game against Arsenal in the middle of the week, Lao Lei's tactic was to attack at the beginning, trying to solve the game in the first half, and then replace some of the main players in the second half to save strength for the game in the middle of the week.

Lao Lei's wishful thinking was very good, but the Portsmouth general did not want Tottenham to be so easy. Former Chelsea interim coach Grant deployed strict defensive tactics to deal with Tottenham's attack.

After the game started, Tottenham launched a fierce attack on Portsmouth's goal with the cheers of more than 50,000 fans; while the Portsmouth team followed Grant's tactical arrangement and retreated across the board to defend their own defensive three. district.

Breaking the iron barrel formation is a global problem in football, not to mention that there is not a clear gap in strength between the two sides. Although Tottenham is at the top of the standings, and although Portsmouth is the favorite for relegation, everyone is a Premier League football player. Team.

Under Portsmouth's dedicated defense, although Tottenham fired 17 shots in the first half, they were unable to break through Portsmouth's goal.

During the halftime break, everyone from Tottenham Hotspur to the players looked very ugly.

If anyone in Tottenham's squad anticipated such a situation, it would be Bale. As a time traveler, Bell clearly remembers that Portsmouth finally reached the FA Cup final this season, posing a difficult problem for the Football Association.

And Portsmouth can advance to the final, which means that the final winner of this game is Portsmouth, while Tottenham was eliminated.

Although Bell didn't know the process, it didn't matter, as long as he knew the result.

Because of this, Bell was already prepared for a hard fight in this game. Although Lao Lei arranged to attack at the beginning of the game, Bell did not directly use Shearer's possession for those ten minutes.

The subsequent development of the situation made Bell feel very lucky, because facing the iron wall of Portsmouth, even though Shearer was the top scorer in Premier League history, it was still difficult to score.

To be honest, as the top scorer in the history of the Premier League, Shearer's overall strength is not very good. He has just reached 90, which is not as good as Toniu at his peak. But Bell still chose Shearer, mainly because he liked two things about Shearer. As a powerful center, although Shearer is only 1.83 meters tall, he is very strong and has super strength. Bell planned to use Shearer to possess him in the final stage of the game, using his body and strength to bully Portsmouth's defensive players, thereby helping the team win.

In fact, in terms of physical strength and strength alone, Drogba is undoubtedly the better choice. The title of Warcraft is not given for nothing, but Drogba's other attributes are very average, especially his shooting skill is only 87. Compared with Shearer at 94 was too far behind, so after weighing it, Bell chose Shearer. He didn't want to physically resist the Portsmouth players, only to end up jerking off because his shooting skills weren't up to par. That would be embarrassing.

After the start of the second half, Tottenham were still taking the initiative to launch attacks, and Lao Lei had set the target time to win the game at one hour or even 70 minutes.

However, Portsmouth's defense was very resilient today. In the first half hour of the second half, although Tottenham launched a wave of attacks and fired 12 shots, they still failed to knock on Portsmouth's goal.

However, under such an intense attack by Tottenham, Portsmouth players are also physically exhausted. After all, passive defense is also difficult.

Seeing that the game was about to enter overtime with only fifteen minutes left, and his Tottenham teammates were also a little discouraged, Bell did not dare to delay any longer. When the game reached the 75th minute, he decisively activated his trump card. At that moment, Bell felt a little sorry for the Portsmouth players. The opponent's performance today was really tenacious. It's really rare to have the courage to fight like Tottenham when the team is about to be relegated.

However, this does not delay Bell's determination to cheat at all. In order to cheat even more fiercely next season... Bah, in order to win the championship, Portsmouth must lose today!

Originally, under Tottenham's strong attack, Portsmouth's defense was on the verge of collapse. It was just because Tottenham's attack was also weak and failed to penetrate their defense. Now that Bell is possessed by Shearer, it becomes the straw that breaks the camel's back.

In the 77th minute of the game, Bell carried two Portsmouth defenders, forced his way into the penalty area, and then shot hard. Although the Portsmouth goalkeeper pounced on the ball, he was still unable to prevent the ball from entering the goal.

Five minutes later, in the 82nd minute, Bell scored again. This time it was a corner kick from Tottenham. Bell in the penalty area supported three Portsmouth defenders and sent the ball into the Portsmouth goal for the second time with his head. .

The so-called miracles come from great strength, nothing better than this!
