Excellent conditions and meticulous home contracts to attract foreign enterprises to invest in Japan with real things, and then quietly learn from them to steal cutting-edge technologies and transform them into their own things.
Now these ghosts want to play this game with themselves in football!
Zhuang Ge, of course, can’t agree to the other party’s request, but it’s not good to refuse it bluntly. This old customer who has been with him for many years has to completely freeze the two sides, so Zhuang Ge just thoughtfully found some other topics and put this sensitive issue on the ribbon.
Being able to be the president of the Japanese Football Association, Kawaguchi Saburo is naturally a sophisticated person. When he saw Zhuang Ge’s performance, he immediately reacted and knew that the other party had no plans to establish a football school here.
Of course, a person who is as good as Kawagawa Saburo will not be stupid enough to force the other side to express its attitude on this issue.
Chuanyuansaburo sighed in his heart, cheered up and continued to talk with Zhuang Ge. After all, football in Japan is still very weak now, and it is not such a thing to visit the Fiorentina president and need help from the other side.
Zhuang Ge doesn’t want to get into trouble with the Japanese Football Association, because he will ask the other side for help in the future. Of course, this matter has nothing to do with others in Florence.
(Note, by the way, wake up here. At this time, the organizers of the 22 nd World Cup have decided that it will be jointly hosted by sticks and ghosts.)
Therefore, although the atmosphere of the conversation between the two sides became a little stiff for a while because of Zhuang Ge’s refusal, in the following period, the atmosphere of the talks revived after the two sides deliberately complimented each other, and at the same time, they reached a consensus on some things.
For example, the contract signed by the former two parties will continue to be implemented, and the Japanese Football Association can send young players to Florence for short-term training; At the same time, in order to "apologize" for not building a football school in Japan, Florence will set aside a period of time to play a friendly match in Japan every summer for the next three years and extend the summer training camp for one week to give football lovers a chance to get in touch with Florence stars.
Of course, Florence is not just holding this summer camp. After learning this news, kenyon immediately joined many Japanese companies to sponsor the whole summer camp from the outside to the outside.
Florence’s opponent in the Toyota Cup this time is Cruzeiro from Brazil. Compared with the Cruzeiro facing the riverbed last time, it can be said that the stars are dim-Shao Zhuangge looked at the Cruzeiro list and didn’t find a name he was familiar with.
This is the South American Libertadores Cup champion of the season? Why does it look more like a grassroots team? Zhuang song thought doubtfully in my mind.
Finally, Ronaldo, who debuted from Cruzeiro, solved the boss’s question in private. "Boss, this is how strange you are. It is common for a strong football team in South America to be beaten by surprise, because no one knows whether there will be a second unnamed Pele or Diego Maradona on the other side."
From Ronaldo’s narrative, Zhuang Ge initially realized South American football.
In South American football, especially in the football kingdom where talents are constantly emerging, there are many talented football players in Brazil who have failed to become famous for various reasons (opportunities, injuries, coaches’ lack of appreciation, etc.), but they often have the ability to decide the outcome of the game instantly.
It soon arrived on the evening of December 6th, just as the other 16 teams in Serie A were gearing up for the upcoming 11th round of the League. At the Tokyo National Arena, Florence players were warming up before the game because they were about to face Cruzeiro’s Toyota Cup final.
Facing the rookie Cruzeiro who participated in the Toyota Cup for the first time, Capello played this Brazilian team to death.
Although Cruzeiro can still reflect the average level of the Brazilian team on the offensive end, it is not enough in defense. Without much unified defense education, Cruzeiro players rely more on personal ability to solve problems, while Lei Dongduo and Rui Costa are the two core organizations. The most important thing for Florence is that this kind of defense relies solely on the individual players to play the team.
The trend of the whole game was completely controlled, and Florence quickly counterattacked again and again, which made Cruzeiro players tired.
In the end, with the goals of Inzaghi and Ronaldo, Florence, the champions of the Champions League, beat Cruzeiro, the champion of the Libertadores Cup of South America, and successfully defended the Toyota Cup!
Chapter 572 Before the winter break (1)
The winner of the Toyota Cup in 1997 was Florence!
In Japan, the fans are Asian fans, and winning the Toyota Cup trophy in succession has made Florence’s popularity among Asian fans crazy.
Alien Ronaldo, Linghu Inzaghi in the restricted area, batistuta, the God of War, Lei Dongduo, the elegant king, and Roberto Carlos, the Italian tank, vieri, Brazil’s heavy artillery … Almost every main player in Florence’s first team has been madly sought after by Asian fans.
General Manager kenyon, who is in charge of Florence’s commercial development, will not easily miss this great opportunity to occupy the Asian market. After all, the European football market has already been carved up by teams from all over the world. Even if Florence tries hard, it is impossible to grab more market share from the divided sphere of influence. Africa is dominated by the local economic situation, and the market there is not much profit; South America is rich in football talents and its forces are quite complicated. Florence will be caught in the mire if she rashly enters there. What’s more, that part of North America is a football desert, where people prefer to watch ice hockey, baseball and even brutal football rather than the world’s first sports football.
Therefore, Asia, with the largest population in the world, naturally attracted strong attention from kenyon, especially after occupying the Japanese football market first, China also entered the eyes of kenyon and was listed as one of the key markets in Florence.
By the way, Kenyon also planned to explore in South Korea, but his idea was stopped by Zhuang Ge before it was implemented.
At the same time, Zhuang Ge suggested that kenyon did not choose to seek official cooperation with the China Football Association by imitating the football market model in Japan, but used Zhuang Ge to control Adidas, an international sports brand, to sell products around Florence through Adidas sales channels, so as to gradually establish the image of Florence in the hearts of China fans.
Florence’s market strategy in China is being carried out in an orderly way.
Now let’s talk about the winner of the best player in the Toyota Cup.
Although Ronaldo and Inzaghi scored goals in the competition, they unexpectedly failed to get away in the best player selection after the game. Toyota Che Li sent two assists in the competition. Portuguese midfielder Rui Costa stood out in the selection and walked away with this new sports car as the MVP of the Toyota Cup.
After successfully winning the second Toyota Cup title in the club’s history, the Fiorentina players rushed back to Italy by special plane overnight instead of staying in Japan-in less than two weeks, they still have a Champions League group match and three league matches to play (the 11th round of Serie A rematch was arranged by the Football Association in the week before the 13th round against Atlanta).
Fortunately, the Champions League group match with Leverkusen will be held at Frankie Stadium in five days, otherwise the Florence players will rebel. After all, flying back and forth for 10,000 kilometers a week to play two games is quite exhausting. If these two games are still away … Hehe.
On December 11th, the tired Fiorentina players ushered in the match against Leverkusen at home, which was also the final match of the whole group stage. At the same time, the result of this match will directly determine the fate of Leverkusen, Real Madrid and Liverpool in the Champions League this season.
Because the team just played a Toyota Cup in Yaori, Wan Li five days ago, the main players consumed a lot of physical energy on the way. Capello made a great rotation in the game to ensure that the players would not be technically deformed due to fatigue, which would lead to injuries in the game.
Look at Leverkusen’s side, which is hopeful to participate in the Champions League semi-final, and tempt Dom to decisively send a main force in this game, trying to take advantage of Florence’s long journey and fatigue to win a victory at Frankie Stadium, so as to successfully get another qualifying place from the group.
However, Fiorentina’s starting line-up made Dom feel chilly, because Capello copied the tactics against Liverpool over and over again in front of him-three central defenders, three midfielders and two full-backs-and kept a fast horse in the frontcourt to prepare for a quick counterattack. This tactic is simply bullying their own defenders to turn slowly!
After the game, Florentine’s close defense made the ball very popular. Bayer Leverkusen’s players didn’t adapt to the middle and front court. Several players lacked the ability to break the deadlock independently by several people. Therefore, in the game, Bayer Leverkusen’s solution to the problem faced with Florence’s concrete defense line kept hitting the door in the middle of the field and tried to bombard toldo with a long-range shot to guard the goal.
Although ramello, niko kovac, Kirsten and others have good long-range shooting skills, it depends on different occasions. If they can really take care of the top defensive midfielders such as Dibiagio and Davis and kick a world wave, Leverkusen may still have the possibility of winning, but it is a pity that the lucky lady didn’t visit Leverkusen today, so Kirsten and others’ long-range shots are either wide of the goal or the angle is too wide for toldo to pounce on.
Just as Leverkusen faced the worldwide problem of iron barrel array, at the same time, Real Madrid led Liverpool by three goals at home early with davor suker’s goal in the third minute and Raul’s second goal. Although the Red Army was unwilling to admit defeat, Owen and Fowler pulled back two cities at half time, but German left-back Ziggy reversed the Liverpool people’s hopes with a long-range shot in the 17th minute and fixed the score at 4-2.
In the end, facing the concrete defense line, Leverkusen, the new champion of the Champions League, drew a draw with Florence in the away game, which ensured the qualifying. Unfortunately, he lost the opportunity to advance to the top 16 of the Champions League. Dom and his brothers handed over valuable knowledge in this game.
When answering a reporter’s question at the post-match press conference, Dom did not express disgust at Florence’s extreme defensive tactics, but generously admitted that he was really inferior. He did not expect Capello to make an iron drum array in this game.
Dom won a lot of goodwill from the Italian media at the press conference, so Leverkusen also praised him for regretting his exit, saying that despite his defeat, the new Champions League team made a club image advertisement throughout Europe.
Chapter 573 Before the winter break (2)
After the group stage, Leverkusen players went home and advanced to the Champions League with Florence. The rematch was La Liga giants Real Madrid.
With the precious victory over Liverpool and Florence’s "help" to Real Madrid in another venue, Leverkusen narrowly escaped from this death group by winning seven points with six games, two wins, two draws and two losses.
The next day, the pro-Real Madrid Spanish media made comments and highly praised Florence’s spirit of fair play, which made Capello prepare for a game in the office with a wry smile. These Spaniards were really narcissistic. I never planned to let Real Madrid go from the beginning, but these players were just suitable for playing this tactic, and Leverkusen himself failed to live up to expectations, which led to such a result.
No matter what Capello thinks about Real Madrid and Florence, it was a bit bad, but it has really changed a lot because of this game. This easing will bring a lot of benefits to Florence in the future, but now everyone can’t see it.
