Chapter 360 Chapter [049] - Final Final - [Today's 3rd update]

Chapter 360 Chapter [049] - Final Final - [Today's third update]

England U21's entry into the European Youth Championship seems to confirm the statement that the team is the strongest youth reserve force in England in the past 20 years.However, the process of eliminating the host Sweden in the semi-finals was extremely thrilling. They were able to lead by two goals. Although they overtook the score in the end, they were equalized at the last moment and could only win with a penalty kick. Their roller coaster performance showed their immaturity.To make matters worse, the main goalkeeper Joe Hart, the main striker Abang Rahor, and the substitute killer Fraser Campbell, who performed bravely in the penalty shootout, all missed the final due to suspension.

In the history of the European Youth Championship, England only won two championships in a row in 1982 and 1984. At that time, it was also the time when English clubs dominated the European war. The Heythel tragedy occurred in 1985, the English club was sanctioned by UEFA, and English football also entered a dark period. In 1986 and 1988, they stopped in the semi-finals of the European Youth Championship. Throughout the five European Youth Championships in the 90s, England U5 never reached the finals.

The Premier League is on the rise again in Europe.In the past five seasons, except for Barcelona and AC Milan, the other Champions League final seats have been occupied by the Premier League.Although the proportion of local players from the four giants is not the same as in the past, and the England senior national team has not escaped the accusation of the reputation, but the strength of the England U5 team has risen along with the club, and the results of the European Youth Championship have also begun to pick up.

Higher expectations are placed on England's U21 this year. Only one of the 21-man roster does not play in the Premier League. Almost all the main players have gained a firm foothold in the club.Walcott, Milner and others all became famous very early. Goalkeeper Hart, defender Richards and striker Abang Laho also had the experience of playing for the national team.Another age-appropriate Tottenham winger Lennon, who is currently recovering from injury, has collected double-digit national team caps.Therefore, it is not a gimmick that England U1 claims to be the strongest in the past 21 years.

In the group stage, England drew Spain and Germany in the death group. However, England defeated Finland and Spain successively, locked in the qualifying right in advance, and sent a full substitute lineup in the final game, but still drew with Germany 1-1. In the end, they won the top spot with 7 points. In the semi-finals, they faced Sweden, the weakest of the top 4 in theory.In the first half of the game, England led with an absolute advantage of 3 goals, and the victory seemed to be within reach.

本届瑞典U21国家队的实力还是非常强悍的，至少这一点意大利U21国家队的球员们很清楚。因为他们在和瑞典U21国家队交手的时候就感觉到非常苦难，这支瑞典U21国家队队内有实力非常厉害的球员，所以他们相信瑞典U21国家队会给英格兰U21国家队带来非常强力的冲击的。

Indeed, the Swedish U21 national team at the beginning of the game had a very strong impact on the England U21 national team, which has high hopes of winning the championship.Just 4 minutes into the game, the host Swedish U21 national team took the lead in attacking. After consecutive breakthroughs in the middle, Elm tiptoed the ball into the penalty area of ​​the England U21 national team.Marcus Berry, known directly as 'Zlatan Ibrahimovic II', rushed over and volleyed before Onuoha, sending the ball into the gate of the England U21 national team. The Swedish U21 national team led by one goal.

The goal of the Swedish U21 national team obviously stunned the England U21 national team. In the next ten minutes of the game, they were completely out of shape.This allowed the host Swedish U21 national team to seize the opportunity again, and it was Marcus Berry, the demon striker of the Swedish U21 national team.

He stopped the long pass from the backcourt with his back on his chest, and then turned around and volleyed quickly at the front of the penalty area. The ball flew into the gate of the England U21 national team like shrapnel from a bomb explosion. Nocci, the goalkeeper of the England U21 national team, did not respond. The Swedish U21 national team led by 2 goals in the first half.This made the fans in Sweden very excited, and it also surprised the fans all over the world!

But fortunately, at the beginning of the second half of the game, the England U21 national team regained its state and frequently threatened the goal of the Swedish U21 national team.With their unremitting efforts, Walcott scored a goal from a small angle in the penalty area after consecutive breakthroughs from the wing in the 19th minute of the second half, helping the England U21 national team to get back a goal.

Walcott's goal sounded like a counterattack. The England U21 national team launched a fierce attack after that, frequently threatening the goal of the Swedish U21 national team and making Swedish fans uneasy.

Finally, in the 28th minute of the second half without a game, the England U21 national team relied on Milner's long-range shot from the front of the penalty area to equalize the score, and the two sides returned to the same starting line.

And in the 37th minute of the second half, the England U21 national team overtook the score.Walcott on the wing made consecutive breakthroughs and sent a through ball. Noble, No. 10 in the middle, succeeded in picking the ball and the England U21 national team overtook the opponent.

However, in the last minute of the game.Sweden's 'Zlatan Ibrahimovic II' Marcus Berry cut off the ball at Onuoha's feet in the penalty area, knocked the ball back with his heel, and gave Elm a chance to keep up.

Elm, who rushed up at high speed, shot at the ball, and the ball rushed into the goal of the England U21 national team like lightning, 3:3. In the end, the two sides had to exchange penalty kicks to decide the outcome.In the end, England narrowly escaped with a score of [-]:[-].

Seeing that the penalty kick was about to win, Joe Hart, who performed well, seemed to be overly excited. He received a yellow card for provoking the opponent's player, and was suspended for accumulative yellow cards. He will miss the final.Like him, the team's main striker Abang Laho and backup striker Fraser Campbell are also suspended, which is why Pierce is worried.Fortunately, the Italian U21 national team had internal strife, and now the pressure on Pierce was not so great.

The final of the 2009 Swedish U21 European Cup will be held on June 6 at the Malmo New Stadium in Malmo, Sweden. The Malmo New Stadium was formerly known as the Swedish Bank Stadium.

瑞典银行球场（Swedbank-Stadion）是位于瑞典马尔默的足球场，于2009年4月13日落成启用，是瑞典足球超级联赛 球会马模FF的主场球场。在2009年欧洲U-21足球锦标赛举行期间，由于赞助条款而更名为“马尔默新球场”（Malm？-New-Stadium），期间举行3场A组分组赛及于2009年6月29日举行由德国U214-0击败英格兰U21的决赛。

The Italian U21 national team is quite familiar with this stadium, because their group stage was held here, and it is best for them to come back here for the final.

At 2009:6 on June 30, 17, a large number of fans came to Malmö New Stadium one after another. Today is the last international match held in Sweden this summer. This is the final, whether it is England fans or Italian fans.And there are also a lot of Swedish fans pouring into the stadium. After all, it is quite rare to see such a high-level game in Sweden.

By 18:4 in the evening, nearly 5 people had poured into the new Malmö stadium in Sweden, and the new Malmo stadium in Sweden could accommodate [-] people.With the current situation, the new stadium in Malmö, Sweden should be full of seats today.

At this time, the bus of the Italian U21 national team drove into the new stadium in Malmö, Sweden.Seeing the arrival of the bus of the Italian U21 national team, reporters and fans rushed to get on it.They want to know about the recent situation of the Italian U21 national team. After all, the rumors of the team's internal strife have not dissipated, and it seems that it has become more intense.However, neither the player nor the head coach answered any reporters' questions, and rushed into the player channel directly under the protection of security personnel.

Although they didn't get the news that the fans wanted to know, they still saw Xu Zhou and Marchisio among the players.Before this, many media said that Xu Zhou and Marchisio will not appear in the main lineup of the Italian U21 national team, and they will not even be able to appear in the new Malmo stadium in Sweden.

This worries Italian fans, but it's all right now.Although they don't know whether they can play, but they appeared on the court, they believe that these two people should have a chance to appear on the court.

Not long after the arrival of the bus of the Italian U21 national team, the bus of the England U21 national team also drove into the new stadium in Malmö.There were significantly more reporters and fans who greeted them. It seems that many people think that the England U21 national team will win this U21 European Cup.

Similarly, the head coach and players of the England U21 national team did not accept interviews with reporters. They also rushed into the player channel quickly under the protection of security personnel, preparing for the next game.

After rushing into the locker room, the players changed their outfits, and then quickly rushed onto the court to start the final warm-up before the game.When the players of the England U21 national team came out, the players of the Italian U21 national team were already warming up on the court.Seeing the players of the England U21 national team appear on the field, there was a deafening cheer.

At this time, the head coaches of both sides are making final preparations in the locker room.

After nearly half an hour of warm-up, the players of the Italian U21 national team and the England U21 national team walked towards the player channel together.At this time, the expressions of the players on both sides were very serious, and there was no conversation.

××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××

In the locker room of the Italian U21 national team.

"Does anyone know what day it is today? Does anyone know the meaning of today's game?" At this time, the team's head coach Casi Raj began to speak.

"Today is the final day, the day to decide who the champion belongs to!" The players of the Italian U21 national team replied in a hurry.

"Fortunately, you guys still know what day it is today. I thought you were scared out of your wits. Look at how nervous you all are. Isn't this just a simple game? Is there a need to be so nervous?" Casiraghi said lightly.

The players of the Italian U21 national team showed wry smiles on their faces. Damn, is it a championship or is it a simple game? ?

"Relax, the opponents are not as strong as you think. Look, our defeated German U21 national team can even draw with them. Why should I be nervous?" Casiraghi relieved the pressure for the players.

"And in this game, the opponent still has two main players suspended. It will be very easy for us to beat them!" Casiraghi said.

"Of course, we can't underestimate the enemy!" Casiraghi said again, "Okay, let's talk about our tactics today. The opponent is a relatively strong team. Their advantage lies in their offensive and defensive transitions. Very fast, with a heavy Premier League trace, this will bring us a certain threat. So today our priority is to defend, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack!"

Casiraghi glanced at his players, and then continued: "The opponent's strikers are fast and dexterous, and they will cause some trouble for our defenders. Therefore, the defensive midfielders pay attention to assisting defense. Of course, high-altitude balls are their disadvantage. I don't think they will hit wide crosses, so the defenders pay attention to defending their feet!"

"Understood, boss, don't worry!" Ranocchia and Cristo replied loudly.

"In terms of counter attack, try to go to two sides. The players on our two sides have speed and skills, and we have to make good use of them. The strikers are ready to respond at any time. I hope you can score goals before the end of the first half. This task should not be difficult, right?" Casiraghi asked.

The attacking players of the Italian U21 national team replied in unison: "It's not difficult, boss. I will satisfy you!!"

"Okay, let's go!!" Casiraghi waved his hand lightly, signaling his players to come out.
