Chapter 390 Maradona II

"I"

At the post-match press conference at Goodison Park, when reporters asked Ye Qiu about his thoughts and feelings about this game, this head coach, who has always seemed to be very good at dealing with the media, was somewhat confused. A little choked up and speechless.

"This is a great game, I think no matter how many years pass, I will definitely remember this game!"

After calming down for a while, Ye Qiu took a deep breath and answered this question.

"Perhaps, there are no superstars in this game, and there is no hearty offensive battle, but this game is enough for everyone to feel the passion and charm of football. I don't know if everyone has the same feeling. It felt like it, but in the end I completely forgot about everything else, there was only one thought in my mind, win this game!”

Many reporters present nodded their heads after hearing Ye Qiu's words. Many people were also deeply affected, because when you integrate your feelings and thoughts into a team and into a football match When you win, you can feel the joy and sadness that accompany the game.

"Is this the reason why you shouted so loudly at the end of the game?" A reporter raised his hand and stood up and asked.

Ye Qiu touched his throat, coughed, nodded and smiled in a slightly hoarse voice: "Yes, when I think about it now, those actions were indeed inappropriate and a bit excessive, but I really I didn’t think too much. I felt that my players had worked hard enough. We fought hard for ninety minutes and we shouldn’t have given up before the whistle sounded!”

"If we haven't been able to defeat our opponent until the whistle blows, then I will think that a draw is a draw. Although it is difficult to accept, this is football, but we must not give up before the whistle blows. , Even if there is only one minute left, only one second left, we must continue to go all out."

"I'm proud of my players. They completed a great game. I believe that all Tottenham Hotspur players, fans, and coaching staff can gain a lot from this game. Because this game tells us a truth with iron-clad facts: as long as you never give up, a miracle will happen sooner or later!”

After Ye Qiu finished answering the questions, the press officer at Goodison Park named the next interviewer. A female reporter stood up with red eyes and cried, "Mr. Ye Qiu, I saw you in the game. I was very excited when I heard you say this again. I have always thought that you are the best and most outstanding head coach!”

"Thank you!" Ye Qiu put his hands together in a gesture of thanks to her.

"What I want to ask is, did you ever think that the team could score a goal at the last minute? Why did you feel that way?"

Ye Qiu thought for a while and nodded: "I know many people will doubt it. There are only four minutes left. How can you still feel that you can score? Bragging and hindsight?"

Ye Qiu's slightly self-deprecating words made everyone present couldn't help laughing, including Moyes who was sitting next to him.

"But, I really really feel that way, I trust my players very much, I believe they will not give up easily, we will work hard until the last minute, the last second, so, I always focus on my ball The team has confidence that we can beat all our opponents.”

"You call me confident, you call me blind, you call me arrogant, that's all fine, but if as the head coach of a team, even I don't have confidence in my team, then I want to ask you, what should I get?" What's going to affect my players? To tell them that we can beat everyone?"

“I won’t say that we are the strongest, and I dare not say that we can win every game, but what I dare to say is that in every game, we will walk onto the football field with the belief that we must win. We will play every game with the belief that we will win until the last minute and the last second.”

"No matter what the game scene is, no matter what the score is, I have always believed that as long as we are willing to pay, work hard, and fight hard, we will definitely get the results we want."

When he said this, Ye Qiu paused and took a deep breath, "I know there will be many people who think we are lucky and say we scored at the last moment, but I don't think that is luck at all. I don’t think we are lucky at all. On the contrary, I think it is the result of our hard work and the result of all of us not giving up and persisting until the end!”

"That is the reward my players deserve because they put in their efforts. No one can erase the efforts and dedication of my players and attribute the last-minute goal to luck!"

Ye Qiu's words received a lot of applause from the audience. He also used these words to block many comments that might appear in the newspapers tomorrow morning, which was to mention Tottenham Hotspur's goal. Put it down to luck, or a last-minute flash of inspiration on the part of a player, and it was definitely a case of disregard on the part of everyone at Tottenham Hotspur.

What is luck? What is a flash of inspiration?

Could it be that all the efforts the players have put in before were in vain? Could it be that Beckham fought so hard that he stood on the sidelines and vomited non-stop, could it be that Cesc Fabregas couldn't stand up until the end, could it be that Alves fought so hard that his leg was injured, could it be that Messi fought so hard that his consciousness was blurry until the end? These are all fake. Of?

Ye Qiu does not reject freedom of speech, but if the freedom of speech of these uncrowned kings hurts him and his players, then he will definitely fight back, because this is his protection of the players and a responsibility to the team. .

"Mr. Ye Qiu, I very much agree with your statement. This is not just a matter of luck. So, I would like to ask, what do you think of Messi passing five people in a row at the last moment? This is definitely a genius-like technique, and it almost never happens. Appeared in the Premier League!”

The male reporter's question immediately received a unanimous response from many people present. In the Premier League, there are really very few. At least Ye Qiu has never seen such a genius performance from five people in a row, so many people want to Listen to Ye Qiu's opinion, because they can all predict that this will become big news around the world tomorrow.

Many of them have even thought about giving Leo Messi the title of Maradona II tomorrow.

"When I brought him to London from Spain, I said that he is an out-and-out genius. I have never doubted Messi's potential and ability. I have never doubted that sooner or later he will have the ability." A day that will bring a fantastic football performance to me, to the team, to all Premier League fans, and to fans all over the world.”

"He is a genius, but we must also see that he is still very young and still has many shortcomings and weaknesses. He needs to continue to improve. I have no doubt that he has the potential to become the best player in the world. I believe , after this game, his performance will become better and better.”

"Here, I also want to make an appeal. The mainlandization and technicalization of Premier League football style is already a well-known trend, but we still have not kept up with some law enforcement standards. I think we should adjust the referee appropriately. "

"Only in this way can we attract more and more outstanding technical players to the Premier League and enhance the influence and appreciation of the Premier League. I believe this is what all Premier League fans hope and are willing to see."

Ye Qiu's words once again earned him a round of warm applause, because he is not only the head coach of Tottenham Hotspur, but also the owner of Tottenham Hotspur. He said this without any hint at all. The problem.

The entire press conference turned into a one-man show for Ye Qiu from the beginning. As the host, Moyes was ignored by the media. It was not until the second half that the media asked him about his performance against Tottenham Hotspur. the opinion of.

Although Moyes lost this game, he gave Tottenham Hotspur high praise and believed that Tottenham Hotspur have made great progress this season. The current Tottenham Hotspur even has the ability to The strength to break into the top four in the league.

"At the beginning of the season, a lot of people, myself included, had a bad opinion of Tottenham Hotspur. The team was up and down and it didn't look like a team that could do well in the league at all. Team, because the league relies on stability, but after entering December, Tottenham Hotspur's performance was eye-catching and their performance was very stable."

"Of course, Tottenham Hotspur is a very young team now, but it is also a very strong and competitive team. In this game, we did not perform as well as our opponents, and through We also learned a lot from this game.”

"Tottenham Hotspur gives me the feeling now that as long as they can maintain the performance and momentum in this game, then their entry into the top four is not an empty talk, but is very likely to become a reality!"

For Moyes' high praise, Ye Qiu also reciprocated the favor. He believed that Everton has great hope of entering the European competition this season. He also felt that Moyes was one of the best managers in the Premier League at the moment. He firmly believed that Moyes could lead Everton. Dayton rises.

After the two head coaches complimented each other, they did not forget to shake hands and give a polite hug at the end of the press conference, allowing all reporters and media present to take photos to highlight the friendly atmosphere between the two parties.

Tottenham Hotspur's 2:1 victory over Everton immediately became the focus of major newspapers in Europe and the world the next day. Although in this round, Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool all defeated their opponents and won. ball, but the focus of everyone's attention is still Tottenham Hotspur.

Messi scored five goals in a row at the critical moment in the last minute of this game. He was selected by the Premier League as the best goal of the round, and was even considered to be the best goal in the Premier League this season. Messi This Argentine youngster became famous with one goal and became the focus of media attention around the world. The title of Maradona II naturally fell on his head.

Argentina's Ole newspaper published a front-page headline about the scene where Messi finally scored with his right foot after passing five people in a row. The newspaper gave Messi the title of Maradona II, thinking that this This young Tottenham Hotspur talent will become the future hope of Argentine football in the future.

“Since 1986, when Maradona single-handedly brought Argentina to the top of the World Cup, we have been constantly looking for Maradona’s successor, and we have been welcoming one after another. "Super genius."

"From Ortega to Gallardo to Veron, from Aimar to Riquelme to Dalisandro, one by one, the young talents of Argentina have been crowned with the title of Maradona II, but we can feel that no one has ever been as close to Maradona as Leo Messi. Even when we saw that in the last minute of the game between Tottenham Hotspur and Everton, Leo Messi relied on his own strength to pass five opposing defenders in a row and sent the ball into the goal. At that moment, I felt that what I saw was Maradona!"

"Almost the same height, the same flowing long hair, the same outstanding footwork, the same amazing leadership charm that saves the team from danger at critical moments with personal ability, all of this reminds us of the distant Maradona!"

"But Leo Messi still has a long way to go. He has a coach who trusts him very much and knows his strength very well. Ye Qiu is known by the world. He is considered to be a top coach who is best at training young players. His mind is more mature. The misfortunes in his childhood and the one-year benching at Chelsea will make him more mature and cherish everything he has now. "These make him closer to Maradona than anyone else. The only hidden danger is the common distress of all geniuses, injuries!" "We sincerely hope that Ye Qiu and Tottenham Hotspur can take better measures to protect the hope of the future of Argentine football, because we firmly believe that a better and healthier Messi will bring more and greater contributions to Tottenham Hotspur and Argentine football!" Messi's title of Maradona II is not only awarded by newspapers in Argentina. Almost all over the world, including Europe, Asia and South America, have given him the title of Maradona II because of his five-game winning streak. It is believed that this talented super genius will have the potential to grow into the future Maradona. Tottenham Hotspur treated this coldly. Ye Qiu publicly stated that Messi would not become Maradona. There are many big differences between the two. He believes that Messi will become the world's top star, but he will definitely not be Maradona II.

"He will become Messi I!" Ye Qiu responded with a smile.

When Messi suddenly became famous and became the object of praise from the whole world, he did not get carried away at all. Instead, he kept expressing his gratitude to the club and the head coach, and said that Maradona was his idol and goal, but he did not think he was Maradona II.

"In Argentina, all children who like to play football will like Maradona and dream of becoming Maradona, but there will always be only one Maradona, and no one can become Maradona, because he is a myth in our hearts. Everyone can only do their best, that's enough!"

And Messi has always been calm about the rumors that many teams are interested in him suddenly.

"I can't leave Tottenham. I'm fine here. We have the best coach and the best teammates. We will play the best football. So I can't think of any reason to leave Tottenham!"

For a while, the media all over the world ridiculed and mocked Chelsea and Barcelona. Even many Chelsea fans expressed their dissatisfaction with Mourinho, because it was he who threw a genius like Leo Messi back to the youth team last season, which eventually led to Messi's transfer to Tottenham. Now the Argentine is shining.

"We sent away the future Maradona in vain!" Chelsea fans cried with regret.

Barcelona was also miserable, because a year ago they had hoped to get Leo Messi for 2.5 million euros, but because Ronaldinho and Giuly were on the left and right wing positions at the time, and some of the youth team players in the team also performed well, Barcelona rejected Chelsea's offer and Messi's self-recommendation.

Now, the Argentine's value has to increase fivefold at least, and it may continue to rise in the future. Barcelona fans are so regretful that they are scolding Laporta for being a scumbag.

While hyping Messi, the media also gave high praise to Tottenham's away victory over Everton, believing that the unity and tenacity shown by Tottenham in this game have greatly improved the team's combat effectiveness.

"The top four teams in the league should be careful. There is a wolf-like Tottenham chasing behind you. He is waiting for the opportunity and is ready to pull them down and replace them at any time and anywhere!"

In the final comment, the Guardian issued a severe warning to the top four teams in the league. They felt that with Tottenham's increasingly better performance, it was not surprising to enter the top four.

Looking at the top four teams in the league, Manchester United and Chelsea continue to lead the Premier League standings. The two teams are very close to each other. Now Manchester United has returned to the top of the list, while Chelsea has fallen back to second place, but the gap between the two teams has always remained between one and two points. Whoever makes a mistake and loses points may be replaced.

Three days after the 25th round of the league, Tottenham Hotspur will host the Red Devils Manchester United!

The most dangerous teams are Arsenal and Liverpool, which are ranked fourth and third in the league respectively. They are in danger of being overthrown by Tottenham Hotspur, especially Arsenal, which has performed relatively averagely in the league this season and has been in a state of ups and downs. It currently has 8 points more than Tottenham Hotspur. If it is not careful, it may fall out of the top four at any time.

However, a considerable number of people have given high praise and expectations to the rise of Tottenham Hotspur, hoping that this team can inject a fresh atmosphere into the Premier League, especially the admiration and belief in technology and offensive football shown by Tottenham Hotspur this season, which makes all Premier League fans shine.

Tottenham Hotspur fans kept shouting that the dreamy artistic football of the year has finally returned to the White Hart Lane Stadium.

This stadium with a poetic name has finally welcomed back the football that corresponds to its name!
