    Chapter 284 Defending the title

    After the two clubs held separate press conferences, some insiders were already sighing: It seems that Yunjia Tianyu is in danger this time. Didn¡¯t Dalian Dongfang get all the four million bonuses?  What's the use of you, Pei Weiguang, shouting slogans? If you don't have anything practical to show, the players will still fight for you?

    What happened in the next 24th round seemed to prove that this statement was correct - Dalian Dongfang defeated the tenacious Jilin Yanbian 3-1 at home, while Yunjia Tianyu was tied 0-0 by Wuhan Yazhi in the away game.  Dalian Dongfang finally tied with Yunjia Tianyu in points. After two rounds of no wins, Yunjia Tianyu's three-point advantage has evaporated!

    In other games, Shandong Hualong defeated Shanghai Shenhua 2-1 at home, tying Shanghai Shenhua's points and ranking jointly in third place with 39 points. The Guangzhou Suns, who were about to be relegated, got the last one.  As a life-saving straw, they defeated Shenyang 2-1 at home. Although they were still at the bottom with only 17 points, they were only four points away from twelfth-placed Shenzhen. There was still a glimmer of hope for relegation with two rounds left in the league.  , Wuhan announced the success of early relegation after tying with Yunjia Tianyu. Chongqing Huanyu, who had been defeated again and again, began to feel the danger of relegation

    "These guys really know how to find time." Pei Wei threw the newspaper on the table in a funny and a little bit of annoyance: "Isn't it just two rounds of invincibility? Then they start to make a big fuss. What do they know?"

    "Who wants you to announce the amount of the bonus without telling the outside world?" Su Mei said with a smile.

    "What can I do? Who wants me to promise a bonus of one million more than Dalian?" Pei Wei said with a wry smile: "If it is announced, Dalian will think that I am deliberately using money to pressure them  What should we do if it creates vicious competition? Think about it, if I give out a bonus of 5 million, plus the luxury tax, it will be 10 million. The expenses of this club are getting bigger and bigger.¡±

    Long before the press conference was held, Pei Wei had already announced the bonus at the end of the season in front of the team - three million for winning the league championship.  The cup championship is one million, and if you win the double championship, it will be an additional one million. This is nothing to Pei Wei, but if it is added to the club's expenses, then Yunjia Tianyu's accounts this year will be  Still losing money.

    "What are you afraid of about expenses? It's not like you don't have money." Su Mei didn't think this was a big problem: "European giants basically all lose money, and only a few can make profits through business activities. That's because of their  Fame itself is a kind of wealth. It is normal for Chinese clubs to lose money. After all, the biggest source of revenue for clubs is advertising. It is impossible to make enough money from fans. "

    "I have no problem, but Yunjia Tianyu's financial revenue is so good that it cannot guarantee a balance of payments, let alone other clubs." Pei Wei shook his head: "It seems that if Chinese clubs want to achieve a balance of payments, they can only use  The way we export players is that although we are losing money commercially this year, if we include Nie Fei¡¯s transfer fee, we will definitely make a huge profit.¡±

    "You still want to talk about this now?" Su Mei glanced at him: "Please, your team has been caught up by Dalian, are you not afraid of a big defeat in the end?"

    "That's the head coach's business. What's the use of worrying about it?" Pei Wei said nonchalantly: "Besides, it's not like you didn't watch the last game. Although we were tied by the opponent, the performance of the players was not bad.  , and I don¡¯t see any problem with their psychology As long as there is no problem with their psychology, we will not be able to win this year¡¯s championship I don¡¯t believe that Dalian can beat Beijing and Shanghai in succession at this desperate moment.¡±

    Pei Wei is right, although Yunjia Tianyu failed to score three points in the game against Wuhan Yazhi.  However, they created a lot of opportunities in the game. Ljungberg's raid from the wing once hit the goal post. Deco's several long shots outside the penalty area also caused a lot of trouble for the opponent's goalkeeper and failed to score.  It's just bad luck.

    "Don't worry, I have great confidence in winning the league championship this year! It's just that the FA Cup is not easy to pass. Shanghai Shenhua did not perform well in the league this year. They will definitely put all their hopes in the FA Cup. After all,  After all, the FA Cup is also the national championship. They only played some of the main players in the last league game, and they must be preparing for this game."

    Unfortunately, Pei Wei guessed right. In the game on October 14th, Shanghai Shenhua indeed fielded their strongest lineup. All five major international players appeared, plus four foreign players. Such a luxurious main lineup compared to Yunjia and  Dalian's top two teams are no less impressive.  As for why they can only finish third in the past three years.  The more reason is that their combat effectiveness has been greatly affected by frequent coaching changes.

    For Yunjia Tianyu, BenitezHowever, his rotation was carried out step by step.  The goalkeeper Xiao Fei, the four defenders are Hu Junli, Zhou Nan, Lucio and Wu Jiang, the midfielders Ljungberg, Gattuso, Zheng Zhi, Zhang Yiming, the double forwards Tony and Yu Genwei, Deco has been hidden.

    However, this lineup with four players under the age of 20 achieved results that the entire main lineup could not achieve in the Hongkou Stadium. You must know that Yunjia Tianyu, who sent almost all the main players just a week ago, was still there.  They lost to Shanghai Shenhua 1-3 on this court, but after the 90-minute game today, the Yunjia Tianyu players walked out of Hongkou Stadium with their heads held high!

    Three to two!  A not brilliant victory, but enough to get them into the finals!

    The well-deserved hero of this game is Zheng Zhi, who is only 18 years old. He fully demonstrated his mature skills and comprehensive abilities in the central midfielder position. Although his skills are not as good as Nie Fei's, he has abundant physical strength and comprehensive abilities.  However, his ability can make people forget Nie Fei to another extent.

    A goal, an assist, and an instigation, Zheng Zhi takes the greatest credit for Yunjia Tianyu¡¯s victory.

    With this victory, Yunjia Tianyu not only took a solid step towards the FA Cup finals, but also after two rounds without a win.  Being able to achieve such a difficult victory on the road has an immeasurable effect on the team's confidence.

    In the home game against Qingdao Haixingdi on the 18th, Benitez once again used Zheng Zhi. This time he arranged a rather weird formation. Tang Yong appeared at the right back position, Ljungberg took turns, and the central  On the field are Gattuso, Yu Xiaowei, Deco and Zheng Zhi. The four midfielders who are accustomed to playing in the middle plus the two forwards Ayling and Toni form Yunjia Tianyu's offensive line.

    From this arrangement, we can see the uniqueness of Benitez¡¯s use of troops.  On the surface, this midfielder seems to have completely given up wing attack, but in fact Gattuso's position is the right midfielder, Zheng Zhi is more on the left, and the center is handed over to Deco and Yu Xiaowei. This weird formation will Qingdao Starfish  All his subordinates before the game were defeated. After the first half, Yunjia Tianyu relied on Wujiang's long-range shot from outside the penalty area and Aylin's follow-up shot in front of the goal to win the game in advance.

    At the same time as the Yunjia Tianyu game ended.  Good news also came from another venue. After being tied 2-2 at home by the Liaoning team in the first round of the FA Cup semi-finals, Dalian Dongfang, which has a relatively older average age, really showed signs of decline. They played Beijing Yulin at home.  Zero to zero, Yunjia Tianyu once again extended its lead to two points!

    This means.  As long as Yunjia Tianyu scores one point in the final round of the league, it will be enough to win the championship trophy!

    Seeing that Yunjia Tianyu won the championship, the situation was very good, and the direction of public opinion immediately changed again. The reports that Dalian Dongfang would complete the reversal a few days ago disappeared from all newspapers overnight.  The reporters who had praised Dalian Dongfang so highly a few days ago immediately changed their expressions and began to sing praises for Yunjia Tianyu loudly and without blushing.

    "So, these things are just farts. Don't show me newspapers in the future." This was the order Pei Wei gave to Xiao Zhao after reading today's sports-related newspapers.

    "We fight for honor."

    This is what their president Yu said in an interview after Shanghai Shenhua arrived in Yunjia - and his team did it. Shanghai Shenhua, who fought against the odds, won a victory at Yunjia Fengyun Stadium, but it was a pity that  Unfortunately, a two-to-one scoreline was not enough to get them into the finals.  Yunjia Tianyu relied on the advantage of more away goals to stand in the FA Cup final ahead of schedule.

    Dalian Dongfang seems to have lost the momentum to move forward with little hope of the league championship. In fact, the older Dalian Dongfang players have exhausted their little physical strength in the previous pursuit. In the semi-finals of the Football Association Cup  , they were held to a 1-1 draw by Liaoning in an away game. They were also eliminated from the FA Cup finals due to few away goals. The A-B team Liaoning created the second miracle in the history of the Chinese Football Association Cup - with the A-B team  In the past, only Yunjia Tianyu was the only team to enter the FA Cup finals.

    On October 25th, the last round of the league, Yunjia Tianyu challenged Sichuan Tianfu away from home.

    Although a tie can win the league championship.  But Yunjia Tianyu still dare not slack off - after all, Sichuan still has a chance to hit the top six.  And their relationship with Dalian has always been relatively good. If something goes wrong at this last moment.  The whole team was really in tears.

    Benitez once again sent out three defensive midfielders and four defenders, leaving only three speed and technical players, Ljungberg, Ayling and Yu Genwei, in the frontcourt to fight back. But no one blamed him for being conservative. After all, in  In such a dense situation, the most important thing is to ensure that the desired effect is achieved with the least amount of physical effort.

    ? ?Jiatianyu got a key point as expected, and Dalian Dongfang seemed to have no hope of winning. They had a feeble 0-0 draw with Shanghai Shenhua in the away game. When the news came, the entire Yunjia City immediately became a  Ocean of joy!

    Yunjia Tianyu won the 1998 A-League championship with 17 wins, six draws, three losses and 57 points, successfully defending the title. This result made Yunjia Tianyu the first team in the A-A League since the beginning of professionalism.  A club that successfully defended its title!
