Full text of valuable tone prose

When Silva rushed to the top like lightning and broke the Italian team's door, I thought the championship had been decided and the European Cup should be over. As for the 4: 0 sweep, I'm afraid even smart gamblers dare not bet on this result.

Spain, last European Cup champion, World Cup champion. Are they public? Crazy? No Spaniard, from coach Bosco to every player, has a low profile that is amazing and convincing.

It is said that low-key is the keynote. But how many stars have real accents? In Spain, I can make a string of stars or even giant stars with a strong accent. Casillas, Xavi, Iniesta, Silva, Fabregas, busquets, Alonso, Pique, Pedro, Mata, Torres ... Think about it, Mata, the main midfielder of Chelsea, always sits on the bench until the final. Did he complain? Torres is also the main striker of Chelsea. He doesn't play much, but he respects the coach and works hard. That is, in the face of various criticisms from Chelsea in the past two years, he is still very calm and suffering. How much concentration is needed!

I admire three Spaniards most: Harvey, Iniesta and Silva with a Chinese face. I don't know how many years the Spanish team has played and how many games it has played, but I have never seen them maliciously foul, and I have never seen them "five catties and six catties". Even if they are maliciously collided, they just show a weak smile, and they will never push and quarrel, let alone fight. Awesome, this calmness, calmness, calmness and self-confidence is enough to destroy each other's psychological defense.

Technically, these three men are top-notch, Harvey is the soul, Iniesta and Silva are the attackers, and they are called "shadow strikers". The combination of three people passing and cutting, threading in a small range in front of the restricted area, is invincible in the world. Roxborough, technical director of UEFA, commented on Iniesta, saying that he is not only creative in playing football, but also thoughtful, and he is an outstanding representative of attacking football. He also said that Iniesta is modest and a player with high moral character.

When Spain won the championship and Iniesta was named the best player in this European Cup, he said: "For me, the best player award is an extra surprise. This title does not mean that the individual's value is higher than the whole, and you can't win the prize only by your outstanding performance. It is a great honor to play in the European Cup with the team. I don't expect to win the MVP at all. There is no point in discussing awards decided by others. Besides, how can I compare with Messi? He scored more than 70 goals in a season. " What do you mean, low profile? Low-key is generosity, modesty, tolerance, arrogance and recklessness ... Low-key is a kind of cultural taste, a kind of professional accomplishment and a realm of being a man in the final analysis. Old coach Bosco also said, "You don't have to pay attention to some criticisms, and some even have valuable suggestions." Fine words and reasoning, much like the style of the Spanish team.

Only practice for half a game.

After watching the training class in Brazil, a reporter interviewed their head coach: "Why do you only practice at halftime?"

The head coach replied, "Half-court practice is enough. Anyway, kicking around is in someone else's half. "

The reporter watched China's training class again, and then asked the head coach of China curiously, "Why do you only practice at halftime?"

The coach replied, "Half-court practice is enough. Anyway, kicking around is half of ours. "

Win in "not the first"

20 12, 10 On June 10, the captain of Japanese women's football team homare sawa won the honor of "FIFA (International Football Federation) 20 1 1 Best Women's Football Player", which made him the top in the world and attracted thousands of people. However, few people know that homare sawa, who has surpassed China football idol Sun Wen, has never been the first in the team, despite her numerous favorites.

You may think that the main player who led the Japanese women's football team to win the World Cup is not the first, but she did admit it herself. Heezen Zesui revealed in an interview: "I am an ordinary player in all aspects." When this statement came out, everyone thought it was just her modest words. However, the information from multiple sources is comprehensive, and what Homare Sawa said is true.

It is understood that Japanese women's football team often tests athletes during training. The results show that Homare Sawa is not the best player in endurance, instantaneous explosive power, speed and bounce. Among these projects, she doesn't have the first one that is sure, and of course there is no obvious weakness. Therefore, although she is not the first in any single test, her comprehensive ability is the strongest in the team, so she is qualified to be elected captain.

Since FIFA established the "Best Women's Football Player" award in 200 1 year, only three people won the award in1year, and in the last five years, it was monopolized by Brazil's "first sister" Marta. Homare sawa is not the first Asian player to reach the top of the world, but also the first Asian player to win this honor in history. Some people say it's homare sawa's luck. But everyone with a discerning eye knows that this is actually the "Kannikin Law" that everyone is familiar with. Although everyone else has a longer "plank", homare sawa cultivated her shortest "plank" better than others. As a result, she naturally "poured the most water" and eventually became a leader.

The invincible "soccer queen" Homare Sawa tells us with her story that even if you are not the first, you can win, and you can win more beauty and excitement. The key is whether you have excellent comprehensive strength.

What makes Beckham different?

In the commercial society, "youth meal" is a common career mode, and its core is that income is directly proportional to physical condition.

Football players are a typical "youth meal" model. When star players earn the highest income, they are often in the best competitive state and physical condition. Once their skills and physical condition decline, their income will plummet. However, Beckham is an exception. From a competitive point of view, he has never been among the top players, but he is the most profitable football player in the world at present. According to the statistics published by Forbes magazine, Beckham's annual income of 201/kloc-0 is 46 million dollars, ranking first in the income list of football players.

So, what's special about Beckham?

In fact, since his transfer in 2007, Beckham has been away from the first-class professional leagues, but he has never been absent from the events that the public pays special attention to. During the 2008 Olympic Games, the 20 10 World Cup and London's bid to host the 20 12 Olympic Games, Beckham always participated in it in various eye-catching ways. In addition, the rise of social networks has also stabilized his relationship with fans. At present, he has18.23 million fans on Facebook.

In addition to wages and bonuses, most of the income sources of professional players come from sponsors. Beckham skillfully turned his professional ability into a personal brand, which not only reminded people of football, but also reminded people of fashion and trends. Cooperate with Swedish retailer H&; M's contract, Beckham became a partner of an underwear product, not just a spokesperson.

Although he is good at football, football has never been the main line of Beckham's life. Digging and amplifying his business value is his favorite thing. Whether going to Real Madrid, which can't guarantee the main position, or moving to Los Angeles Galaxy, or selling the right to report on weddings and children to the media, maintaining influence and commercial returns are his priority factors.

The biggest difference between Beckham and other players is his ability to create trends. Whether it's a changeable hairstyle, a tattoo all over the body, or various endorsements, he always attracts attention and heated discussion. Like sports brands like Nike, Beckham is not selling the products themselves, but advocating fashion trends and lifestyles.

It is precisely because of these distinctive competitiveness that Beckham's "youth meal" has been eaten for a long time.

Lovely English fans

During the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan, I made a very long trip: Beijing-Hong Kong-Sydney-Melbourne-Brisbane-Hong Kong-London-Dublin-Beijing.

I want to talk about my feelings in Dublin.

The first is the feeling when you arrive. When I took off from London Heathrow Airport and came over Ireland, my plane slowly descended, crossed the clearly visible Irish land and came over the Atlantic Ocean again. Then the plane began to turn around, and the mutual reflection of seawater and sunlight made me see the beautiful coastline with arc light displayed by Ireland in the sea. The plane approached the sea step by step, and the blue Atlantic Ocean was unfathomable, and the great silence suddenly moved me.

It was sunny when I stepped out of Dublin airport, but the person who came to meet me was holding an umbrella. When I drove to my residence, I saw many people walking in the sun with umbrellas. Before I got to my residence, it suddenly got dark and it rained cats and dogs. In the following days, I experienced a life of sunny to rainy and sunny in Dublin. The bright sunshine and heavy rain kept passing the baton to each other. I remembered the description in James Joyce's works. He wrote: The weather in Dublin is like a baby's ass. One minute shit comes, one minute urine comes (to this effect).

The second feeling comes from the legendary infamous English fans I met in Dublin. Let's start with a game. I watched 16 Ireland-Spain knockout in a bar in Dublin, with an interpreter and several Irish writers. The famous U2 band made its fortune in this bar, and the fans here are more elegant. Because of Ireland's outstanding performance in the group stage, several of my Irish colleagues began to fantasize about the future of their team. As a result, the Irish team was out, and my Irish colleagues were very discouraged; Their friend, a Spanish lady, is in high spirits. At lunch, the Spanish lady danced and talked with Kan Kan, her lips were very busy, and what she said was dozens of times the food she ate. Those Irish writers always smile politely, as if they appreciate her speech performance, but not necessarily.

England easily won the first round of elimination and advanced to the quarterfinals. English fans who are on holiday in Dublin are wearing England uniforms, cheering, singing and running in the street. I saw a fat man running behind another fat man's back, followed by several fat men. After I walked a few blocks, a more lovely scene appeared, and a group of British fat people came running with fat people on their backs. The fat man on his back is crying easily, while the fat man carrying the load is struggling.

This impression is so deep that when I think of English fans, I am a group of fat people running around. At the same time, it also gives me the illusion that English fans are fat.

After my trip to Dublin, I flew to London and then transferred to Beijing. A group of fans wearing England uniforms boarded the plane with me. Before the plane took off in Dublin, the quarterfinals between England and Brazil had already started. The plane climbed up and just leveled off. At the beginning of the cabin service, the captain told the passengers through the cabin broadcast that England 1: 0 was ahead of Brazil and Owen scored. Cheers broke out in the cabin, and fans in England uniforms left their seats, took money out of their pockets, bought beer and drank to each other. I have never experienced such a lively flight. This group of English fans regard the plane in the air as a bar on the ground. It was not until the crew came out to stop them that they remembered that they were at an altitude of 10,000 meters and returned to their seats one by one, smiling at the students and sitting there quietly.

Later, the captain did not report the progress of the game. I think England lost the game when they landed in London. I now think that if the captain reported the results of the game, our plane might stagger like a drunk when landing.

British fans are the most famous "football hooligans" in the world. Reports about their arson fights are often seen in newspapers, but the English fans in my impression are very cute. Why should British fans become the first choice of world-class "football hooligans"? This may be the role of the media. In countries that love football, fans set fire to fight. The problem is that the world media has become accustomed to finding fault with British fans, which makes the "football hooligans" in other countries often stay out of public opinion.

Ten years ago, when I first went to the United States, Mr. Lamb, then the chairman of Norton Publishing Company in the United States, said to me:

"Do you know what the media is?"

Sitting on the sofa at home, he stretched out his index finger comfortably and explained to me: "For example, if your finger was burned by fire, it would really be like this if the media reported it;" It's false if the media doesn't report it. "

Fields painted green

Fans who often watch European leagues are often attracted by the stadiums in the Premier League and La Liga. But sometimes, a piece of green turf seen by human eyes is just an illusion. They were painted with green paint. Don't believe it? Lazio's home paint scandal was exposed, and a home team player was replaced early because of allergies.

Lazio started the day perfectly. Sculley scored two goals in the 7th minute and18th minute, which sealed the victory for the home team early. Tens of thousands of Lazio fans at the scene thought a massacre was inevitable. Disappointingly, the fans didn't wait for the goal, but Sculley, the hero of the goal, was replaced early in the 52nd minute. What is even more puzzling is that Sculley's expression was a little painful and depressed when he left the stadium. However, judging from the progress of the game, he did not suffer too much aggression and showed no signs of nervousness.

Why did Sculley leave early? At the press conference after the game, Lazio coach Rhea explained this strange substitution. It turned out that Sculley's fate was caused by skin allergy, which was caused by the paint on the turf. Rhea also revealed that when poor Sculley returned to the dressing room, his face was "as red as a prawn".

Rome, the capital of Italy. Olympic Stadium, home of Italian giants Rome and Lazio. Why did this stadium, which hosted the 1960 Olympic Games and the 1990 World Cup, make such a joke? Overuse. Generally speaking, a football field will be used once every two weeks, but because Rome and Lazio are both in the Olympic Stadium, competitions are held every week. Coupled with European events and domestic "cups", the turf of the stadium is overwhelmed. In order to ensure the beautiful TV picture, the stadium staff can only use their brains to paint the bare stadium turf green with green paint.

In fact, this is not the patent of the Olympic Stadium. In 2003, the San Siro Stadium (also called Meazza Stadium), the home stadium used by AC Milan and Inter Milan, did the same. As a result, the players' white trousers quickly turned green, which attracted strong protests from visiting players. Finally, the San Siro Stadium had to give up this practice. Unexpectedly, after eight years, such a farce was staged in Serie A again.
