Chapter 629 Best Team of the Month in January
Although Newcastle failed to reach the top of the standings, no one in this league dares to underestimate this team anymore, and the league has reached this stage, and it is already unprecedentedly fierce. The points gap between the top three is only two points, No .4 Although Chelsea have been separated by eight points by the top two, who can say that they cannot catch up?After all, their strength is quite powerful.
Just when the Premier League was at its most intense, the Premier League teams had to stop their continued competition-according to the schedule, the next week will be the time for the England Cup, and within this week, there will be an England The first leg of the semi-finals of the League Cup and the fourth round of the FA Cup.
For Newcastle, the tasks of these two competitions are very clear-strive for the League Cup and give up the FA Cup. It's just one game, not to mention that this year's League Cup seems to have become the grave of strong teams. Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United have all been eliminated. Except for Newcastle, the other three teams are Bolton, Manchester United. Dullsborough and the biggest dark horse in the UEFA Cup this season, Barnsley from the second division.
Fortunately, Newcastle's opponent in the League Cup semi-finals was this Barnsley team.
With the strength of Newcastle, it is almost impossible to lose against Barnsley-although Barnsley is the biggest dark horse in the UEFA Cup this season, they are not the fourth place that has defeated several Premier League teams. They are strong, but they were lucky in the lottery. They always met teams with the same level as them or even lower. In the quarter-finals, they were lucky to eliminate the League One team with a goal at home. Crewe, that's how he made it to the semi-finals.
In fact, for Newcastle, they only need to think about the final. For Newcastle who hope to win a championship this season
For Castle, the League Cup cannot be let go.
The other teams in the FA Cup should pay more attention to it. From the fourth round to the final, they have to pass five hurdles. At that time, Newcastle will definitely not be able to devote their energy to playing the FA Cup from the Champions League and the league. So for the FA Cup , Mourinho and Pei Wei are both thinking about where they hit.
The first round of the League Cup semi-finals on the 21st (after entering the semi-finals, the League Cup has become a home and away game) was played at Newcastle's home court. Except for a few fatigued main players to rest, Newcastle sent their main players to play , What Mourinho played was to completely eliminate the opponent at home, and then send a substitute to mix in the away game.
For a League Two team like Barnsley, the lineup Mourinho sent was really bullying them. Even Williams, the commentator at St. James' Park, couldn't stand it anymore: "Mourinho Rinho is really cruel...Using a group of stars with an annual salary of more than one million to bully these semi-amateur players with a maximum annual salary of only 20...I understand his desire to win a championship for Newcastle, but doing so is too bullying I'm a little more human."
Given, Trabelsi, Dawson, Woodgate, Hart, Makelele, Dyer, Stewart, Nie Fei, Bellamy, Viduka, the worth of just one Hart is basically equal to Bahn Sleigh's team combined, it's not a close game at all.
How can Barnsley's players who have been in the first and second divisions for a long time resist a team basically composed of international players from various countries?However, their performance is also respectable enough. In fact, they are obviously far behind. Through continuous running and desperate fighting, they just made Newcastle's offensive combination fail to score even a goal in the first half hour!
But they can only resist here. No.303 minutes, Stewart received the ball from Nie Fei's midfielder and forced the bottom and then made a pass. Viduka opened the way for Newcastle with a powerful header from the back point. Victory Gate.
If there is one, there are two, but Barnsley, who resisted with a bloody courage, began to make more mistakes. In the 40th minute, Dyer actively pressed in the frontcourt and got a chance to intercept the return pass of a mistake by the opponent's defender. After the ball, his low shot in front of the penalty area made it [-]-[-].
After the start of the second half, Newcastle's offense became more intense. In the 609th minute, Nie Fei, Stewart and Dyer played a series of dazzling cooperation in the frontcourt and then tore apart the opponent's defense. Nie Fei's shot near the penalty spot was Newcastle scored the third goal.
In the 76th minute, Bellamy, who had been looking for an opportunity, also scored. He received a long pass from Makelele and went straight in. He passed the goalkeeper and scored the ball.
The score of four to zero did not satisfy the Newcastle players. Before the end, Viduka scored in the scuffle in front of the goal. Five to zero, Newcastle won a big victory at home, and this score also made them Basically determined to enter the finals.
"Well done, Jose, once this game is won, we only need to prepare for the final against the League Cup, which can greatly save the physical energy of our players... you plan to play most of the next game Substitute?"
"Well, the opponents in the fourth round of the FA Cup are not strong, and we don't need to care too much about this game. We can play as far as we can. I plan to play some players who rarely get the chance to play. I hope They can do better."
Newcastle's opponent in the fourth round of the FA Cup was Reading, a League One team. Pei Wei didn't have much impression of this team. In fact, Reading rushed to the Premier League in the summer when he was reincarnated. Pei Wei Naturally, he would not know that this rough-playing team injured two Chelsea goalkeepers in a subsequent game, including Petr Cech, who he had booked.
In this game, Mourinho sent most of the substitutes, goalkeeper Harper, defenders Kufuor, Dawson, Taylor and Bernard, midfielders Speed, Stewart, Solano and Viana , the strikers are still Bellamy and Viduka.
However, the substitutes showed amazing fighting spirit on the field. It is no wonder that Solano, Viana, Speed and Bellamy have rarely been able to get the chance to play this season. This is their chance to prove themselves. Even if they want to leave, they have to perform well to find their next home.
In the end, relying on Bellamy's goal in 1 minute, Newcastle defeated Reading [-]-[-] away and entered the fifth round.
****************************************
Since entering January, Newcastle's performance is the best in the league. In the two FA Cup games, one League Cup game and three league games they have won all the victories. No Premier League team can match them That's great!
January 31st is the Premier League No.20 three rounds of the league, if Newcastle can beat their opponent Leicester City in this game, then they will become the first team since the beginning of the season to win in a month A team that has maintained a complete victory in all games-this is something neither Manchester United, which has won six consecutive victories, nor Arsenal, which has remained undefeated so far, have done!
And they have now won five consecutive games in the league. If they can win this game, Newcastle will also tie Manchester United's longest winning streak this season.
Before the start of the game, Shearer and Leicester City captain Les Ferdinand embraced near the center circle. The 36-year-old veteran played for Newcastle for two seasons from 49 to [-]. Shearer And "Sir Les" Ferdinand only cooperated for one season, but the two scored [-] goals together-he is Shearer's best striker partner in his career.
It is worth mentioning that the celebration of running with his right hand high after scoring has become a symbol of Shearer, but this celebration was first used by Ferdinand on the court, and this player has another one that no one can do. A record made - 2001 December 12, Ferdinand put his name in the history books of the Premier League - he scored the 15th goal since the inception of the Premier League...
However, after the start of the game, Newcastle's players did not give the former senior any face. Woodgate followed him closely, while Newcastle's offensive players launched a attack against Leicester's gate. Wave after wave of attacks.
Ibrahimovic opened the scoring for Newcastle in the No. 30 minute - Shearer's goals dropped significantly after the New Year. Of course, no one will demand that the veteran can continue to maintain his magical state in the first half of the season - at this time Instead, Ibrahimovic became Newcastle's most reliable source of goals. He swept Shearer's header in front of the goal and Newcastle took the lead.
Seven minutes later, defender Howie, who had played for Newcastle for 7 years, accidentally scored an own goal—Nie Fei’s shot in the penalty area bounced off the post. Howie tried to make a clearance but failed to kick the ball. Flew through the gate.
In the second half, Janus's volley in front of the penalty area sealed the victory for Newcastle. After that, Newcastle's rhythm on the field slowed down. Mourinho also replaced two substitutes, Viana and Bellamy, No. In the 80th minute, Ferdinand scored a goal from his teammate's cross in front of the goal, and the Newcastle fans applauded him warmly - it is estimated that if Newcastle is now behind, Ferdinand would not be able to get this honor.
In the end, Newcastle defeated Leicester City [-]-[-] at home, and maintained a complete victory throughout January!They are the well-deserved Premier League team of the month!
PS: I saw the news about the acquisition of Newcastle by a Chinese rich man... But now is indeed the best time to acquire Newcastle, and now Ashley is even more unpopular than Sheppard.It's just that it is not so easy to restore Newcastle's vitality.
