Chapter 140 Boom!
France, Lyon and Gerland Stadium, Lyon will play against their last round opponent Nantes here. Compared with Marseille's opponent, it is a little stronger. However, Hollier and his men are confident of defeating Nantes at their home court.
"We will definitely win this game." Hollier said in a stressful tone, but he said the words "I will definitely win" and he will definitely win this game.
"Only if we win, we can have a chance to win the championship. If we fail, then no one can save us!"
The situation facing Lyon is very unfavorable for them. If they want to win the championship, they must first win. It doesn’t matter how much they win. The key is to get three points. Then they also expect Marseille to capsize at home and cannot win so that Lyon can surpass Marseille in the standings and win the league championship for the fifth consecutive season!
For Lyon players, they are really fighting against each other now, and success or failure is here. Of course, if they win the ball and Marseille also wins the ball, then the championship trophy is still from Marseille. But that is another situation. At least Lyon team has tried their best and loses without regrets.
In the first half of this season, Lyon once led the Marseille team by eleven points, but before the last round of the season, he was one point behind Marseille. In a sense, Lyon itself was not sure of the good situation, so he gave Marseille a chance. Marseille team finally led the Leon team, how could they not cherish it?
Since Marseille is currently one point ahead of Lyon and Toulouse, who is third-placed, is eleven points ahead, the French Football Association brings the championship trophy to Marseille and plans to award it directly to the home team after the game.
The game has not started yet, and the players on both sides have not yet appeared. However, on the exit side of the player corridor, the 2006/2007 Ligue 1 championship trophy has been placed there. As long as Marseille can win their opponents today, they will win the league championship!
Marseille has won the league championship ten times in history. League championships are not unfamiliar to them. The team is worthy of being the name of the French Ligue 1 giants. However, at this moment, seeing this league championship trophy, the Villodham Stadium was in full swing.
More than 60,000 fans in the audience were cheering towards the rostrum. They were not cheering to the French Football Association Chairman Jean Pierre Escaret, but because there were championship trophys there.
This is the lost crown that the Maasai have been looking for for the past fourteen years!
The same scene happened a week ago. That time it was the French Cup champion. However, whether it is measured in terms of value or the fans' demand, the French Cup champion cannot be compared with the league champion!
So, this time, the excitement of Marseille fans is one step further than before.
It was Fernandez, the old coach with the title of "Holy Godfather", who was famous all over France, couldn't help but look back and looked up, feeling quite excited. His reputation in France was because of his keen eyes. He first trained Zidane and Ribery, and now he is now a show. However, Fernandez may have performed well in the mid-range team before, but he has never led the team to win the league championship. He used to coach Marseille, and this time, if he could win the league championship in the second season, especially overturning the dominance of Lyon in the Ligue 1, this is definitely a new page in the coach's coaching career.
When the players appeared, they were grandly welcomed by Marseille fans. When the players were pronounced on the broadcast on the spot, the fans of the audience would shout in unison. The fans could see the player's position in their hearts. Obviously, Zhang Yang is the most favorite of Marseille fans, and this young man enjoyed the highest cheers.
In order to prevent the occurrence of counterfeiting and water release, the Football Association arranged the last round of the league to kick off at the same time on the same day. At 15:30 pm on May 27, 2007, the whistle of the kickoff and huge cheers sounded over twenty courts at the same time.
"The game has begun. This is the last round of the 2006/2007 Ligue 1 season. Marseille team plays the same team at home. If the home team wins the game, they will win the Ligue 1 championship this season."
"The referee Soltilano blew the whistle to start the game. Before this round of the game, Zhang Yang had already scored 33 goals in the league. This young man once again tied the league goal record he set last season. We all want to know whether Zhang Yang can break the 33 goals he kept. In fact, he only needs to score one goal in this game to create new history. This seems not too difficult for this young man."
"In the previous four seasons, Lyon has always been a champion. People have been saying that anyone can stand up and challenge Lyon's dominance. In the past four years, no one can shake Lyon's dominance. Finally, in the fifth year, Lyon was faced with the biggest challenge to win the five consecutive league championships! Marseille may win the eleventh championship trophy in their history. Of course, they must win this game first."
Through the commentator's mouth, we can draw the significance of this game. Marseille may win the league championship again after fourteen years, and Zhang Yang may break his own record of single-season goal in the Ligue 1 league.
At this time, the competition has begun.
In the fifth minute, after Zhang Yang and Morientes changed positions, they received a pass from Yashioi, and he shot directly. The football hit the calves of the defender of the Sedang team. A change of line occurred on the calves of the goalkeeper. The goalkeeper of the Sedang team had already made a save move. Seeing the football in the opposite direction of the direction of his save, he felt cold. However, this time, luck stood on the side of the visiting team. The football rubbed the outside of the post and went out of the baseline, which made the Marseille fans breathe regretfully.
"I'm a sage!" Zhang Yang seemed very frustrated. He held his head with both hands. If the ball went in by a silence, it might be easy to play in this game.
Afterwards, the Marseille team continued to oppress Se Dang's goal, but he had the advantage on the field but was unable to score a goal for a long time.
Unlike the deadlock on Welrodham, Lyons started quite smoothly at their home court, Gerland Stadium, and it could even be said to be a fantastic start. If you add another modifier, it would be a rainbow of momentum.
Just in the eighth minute of the game, Lyon took the lead. The goal for Lyon was their 19-year-old young player Benzema.
Lyon leads Nantes one-to-zero!
Seeing Benzema's first record for the team, the Gerland Stadium was full of joy. The players on the field were also very excited, but while they were excited, the players had a question mark in their hearts. What they wanted to know was the situation on another field.
They looked to the sidelines, and head coach Hollier looked calm and could not see any clues.
Lyon fans in the stands told the players on the field the answer, and they shouted, "Marseille zero is the color of the zero!"
Hearing the fans shouted like this, the Lyon players on the court were a little relieved. They saw hope for winning the championship.
Although Hollier cheered the players before the game, he understood in his heart that the fate of Lyon is indeed not in their own hands. The hope of Lyon winning the championship is really slim, and it is a bit too ethereal to expect Marseille to make mistakes. Not to mention anything else, according to his understanding of Zhang Yang, this young man will definitely score a goal in this game. Therefore, it is really a luxury to expect Marseille not to score.
Take the present for example. Although Marseille is still zero to zero with the team, Hollier was not surprised. The game only started eight minutes, so it was normal that there was no goal there.
Twelve minutes later, when Hollier learned that Marseille was still zero to zero, he finally began to have some expectations in his heart.
When the game was thirty minutes, he learned through his assistant that although Marseille took the initiative on the Verrodham Stadium and almost formed a siege against the goal of Seandang, he was not able to score a goal. Hollier's hope in his heart was to a higher level. Could God also stand on the side of Lyon, Seandang is the third team that conceded the most goals this season? Such a bad team with poor defense can actually resist the Marseille's offensive for thirty minutes?!
Thinking of this, the head coach of the Lyons couldn't help but feel happy. This is a good sign. Isn't it?
Villodham Stadium.
The game has been going on for thirty-three minutes, and the score on the field is still zero to zero. The Marseille players on the field are more or less anxious. For such a critical game, the earlier the goal is, the better it is. Once the goal is not possible, the team's tight strings are prone to problems.
In the 34th minute, Ribery dribbled the ball on the left side. He used his speed to forcibly break through the right back of Sedang team, and looked up at the situation ahead.
Zhang Yang raised his hand to ask for the ball in the penalty area. However, the players of Se Dang team obviously knew how powerful this young man was. There were three Se Dang team players watching the defense by Zhang Yang alone. As long as Ribery passed the ball to Zhang Yang, even if the football was not destroyed by Se Dang team's defender and Zhang Yang got the ball, it would be difficult for Zhang Yang to be surrounded by Zhang Yang to pose a threat.
Zhangyang is here, this road is not open.
Ribery directly passed the football to Yashioi on the other side. Nasri was injured, so Yashioi took on the heavy responsibility of organizing the Marseille midfielder today.
After Yashioi stopped the ball with her chest, the defender of Sedang team leaned forward. Yashioi knocked the ball directly behind her, and then people saw that it was Argentine veteran Solin inserted it. He did not stop the ball, but instead rushed the ball and passed it. The football drew an arc in the air and flew to the left.
There, Morientes jumped high and shot with a beautiful head!
This is a goal that is bound to be scored. Kese's goalkeeper seemed to be possessed by Buffon and Casillas at the same time today. The gentleman reacted quickly and beautifully racquetted the football.
The football jumped up and flew to the right side of the goal. At this time, it happened to be an empty local belt, with neither Marseille offensive players nor Seedang's defensive players.
At this time, Zhang Yang appeared like a ghost.
He took off the football, flashed quickly and came up to clear the ball in shock, and then volleyed the ball in the middle defender Kelson!
The shooting power was extremely powerful and the angle was very tricky. This time, the goalkeeper of the Seed was unable to do anything even if he had six Buffon and three Casillas possessed. Before he could even swing his hand, the football flew past him and flew into the goal behind him!
“Where——————”
"The ball went in-"
"Thirty-fourth!"
"One to zero!"
With a "boom", a huge cheer burst out from the stands at the Villoadham Stadium.
Chapter completed!
