Football Feast, Starting From the Acquisition of European Clubs: Chapter 232 Prepare in advance for the rebirth advantage to disappear

   Chapter 232 Prepare for the disappearance of the rebirth advantage

   With the referee's whistle, the first half ended, and the Crystal Palace players returned to the dressing room with a two-goal lead.

  Because Crystal Palace completely dominated the field in the first half, Chen Ran had nothing to say. Just a few words of encouragement, without any substitutions and adjustments.

   At the beginning of the second half of the game, Crystal Palace was still fully pressing, continuing to exert huge pressure on Sevilla’s backline.

   In the 52nd minute, Ibrahimovic received a cross from Ribery from the right and scored another goal with a wonderful air test hook.

   "GOAL!"

  Crystal Palace lead Sevilla 3-0.

   As Crystal Palace scored the third goal, Chen Ran on the sidelines found that the Sevilla players were a little discouraged.

   After all, in this kind of a title race that decides the outcome, only Liverpool is the only club that can stage today's big reversal after being three goals behind.

   As soon as Sevilla relaxes, Crystal Palace's offense becomes more comfortable.

   In the 67th minute, Cristiano Ronaldo received a free kick from Modric, and a charge from the back row smashed the ball into the goal guarded by Palop again.

   "GOAL!"

  Crystal Palace lead Sevilla 4-0.

   If the third goal discouraged the Sevilla players, the fourth goal made the Sevilla team collapse.

   In the 75th minute, seeing that Ibrahimovic, who had just joined the team like himself, had already scored two goals, Kaka was no longer keen on passing and scoring.

   As an attacking midfielder, he took the initiative to return to the midfield to ask for the ball. Then one person started to perform a long-distance attack that he was good at. He broke through the middle, and after passing four Sevilla players, he shot hard and broke the goal guarded by Palop again.

   "GOAL!"

  Crystal Palace lead Sevilla 5-0.

   Good guys, these guys are going crazy.

   Chen Ran on the sidelines was also a little dumbfounded. The game has only been played for less than 80 minutes. According to this trend, Crystal Palace might even score a goal.

   "Boss, I feel that the five-goal lead is almost there. Shall we just close it?"

   Seeing Sevilla's head coach Juan Ramos sitting on the bench with a pale face, apparently no longer in the mood to direct the game, Guardiola couldn't help but walked over to Chen Ran and reminded him.

   "Well, five goals is almost the same, and Liverpool only reversed three goals."

  Chen Ran thought about it and felt that it was unnecessary to go in any more, so he turned his head and explained to Guardiola:

   "Josep, you send Jan Kohler, Yaya Toure and Mascherano to warm up, then replace Ibrahimovic, Kaka and Vieira."

   "The formation of 352 remains unchanged, let Modric play the attacking midfielder, and Yaya Toure and Mascherano are the double midfielders."

"clear."

   Soon, everyone saw that Crystal Palace replaced the three main players on the court, and everyone knew in their hearts that Chen Ran was going to withdraw his troops.

   However, Chen Ran intends to stop, but no matter how many players on the field, if there is a chance, he should shoot at the goal.

   As a result, I really got in.

   In the 88th minute, it was a cross from Ribery from the right. Tony and Jan Kohler in the middle failed to grab a point, and the ball was pushed out of the penalty area by the Sevilla defender.

   But the ball was not pushed far, Modric, who had judged the landing point early, was the first to arrive near the landing point. Without waiting for the ball to land, it was a volley that he was good at going up.

"boom!"

The    ball hit the bottom edge of Sevilla's goal crossbar hard and bounced into the net.

   "GOAL!"

  Crystal Palace lead Sevilla 6-0.

   "Ahem, Josep, I didn't plan to score any more goals."

  Chen Ran reluctantly looked back at Guardiola.

   Guardiola had no choice but to return a wry smile.

   He also knew that Chen Ran had already stopped, but Crystal Palace played too smoothly today, how to play.

   In the end, with the referee's whistle, the Sevilla players finally ended the nightmarish game.

  Crystal Palace swept Sevilla with a score of 6:0 and won the European Super Cup for the first time.

   "Ding, congratulations to the host for winning the European Super Cup, with a special bonus of 10 million euros. In addition, there is an economic crisis in a Brazilian second-tier club, and there is a possibility of acquisition."

   Brazil Serie B club?

What's the meaning?

   Could this be Galaxy Football Group's next potential target?

   is not impossible, after all, South America is rich in excellent players. There is a club of its own there, which is very helpful for discovering and cultivating good seedlings in South America.

   Just when Chen Ran wanted to continue to look down which Brazilian second-tier club it was, he was picked up and thrown into the sky again.

  This time, he saw the starry sky of Monaco.

   Special meow, are these guys still finished?

Isn't    a European Super Cup? Is this worth throwing too?

   After receiving the European Super Cup trophy, Chen Ran was once again drunk by his team of players while celebrating.

   The first thing Chen Ran woke up the next morning was to check the details of the Brazilian second-tier club.

  Recife Sports, founded in 1905, is located in Recife, the fifth largest city in Brazil.

   Currently insolvent and on the verge of bankruptcy, the current boss is eager to find a pick-up man.

  Good guy, these clubs from football powerhouses, no matter how strong they are, have a history of a hundred years at every turn. It's quite bluffing to say it.

  Since it is a Brazilian club, of course Chen Ran is looking for the South American local snake, the little fat Luis.

After    returned to London, Chen Ran immediately called the little fat man to the office.

   "Luis, do you know the Recife Sports team?"

   "What? Recife Sports? This is a second division club in Brazil, right? Chen, why do you think of this team?"

   The little fat man looked at Chen Ran in astonishment. He really couldn't understand the relationship between Recife Sports and Crystal Palace.

   "I heard that they had an economic crisis recently, and the current owner is looking around for a buyer willing to take over."

   "What? Chen, are you interested in taking over Sports Recife?"

   Little Fatty now somewhat understands what Chen Ran meant, but he still can't figure it out. With the current strength and status of Crystal Palace, is it too much for Chen Ran to buy a Brazilian Serie B club?

   "That's right. South America is rich in excellent players, and having a club there is very helpful for discovering and cultivating talented young players in South America."

   "My initial plan is to see if this Recife Sports is worth selling. If there is no problem, buy it and join the Galaxy Football Group."

   "Chen, if you want to buy a Brazilian club, why don't you just buy a team in the Brazilian League? This is worthy of our Crystal Palace."

   "Louis, it is precisely because Crystal Palace is in too much limelight right now, so we have to be more low-key when running the Galaxy Football Group project."

   "The acquisition of a Brazilian League team is too loud, and it is easy to attract objections. And a League B team like Recife Sports is a team in economic crisis. I believe no one will object to our acquisition."

   "Besides, the main purpose of my acquisition of a Brazilian club is to discover and cultivate young South American players. It's good to achieve good results. If not, I don't force it. After all, our focus is always Crystal Palace Club. Understand?"

   "Understood. But I don't know much about Recife Sports. I need to call back and ask, and I'll tell you after I check it out."

"Wait a moment."

  Chen Ran stopped the little fat man who was in a hurry to call back.

   "When you call, ask your father if he is interested in partnering with me to acquire Recife Sports."

  “Collaborative acquisition of Recife Sports?”

   Little Fatty was stunned for a moment, wondering what Chen Ran meant?

   After all, with Chen Ran's current financial resources, it is very easy to acquire a Brazilian second-tier club.

"Yes. Of course, if I really want to buy Recife Sports, I will definitely control it. So the shares left to your father are only 49% at most. You have to make it clear to him, Understand?"

   "Understood, I remember."

   Seeing that Chen Ran had nothing else to explain, the little fat man hurriedly left Chen Ran's office.

   Introducing some big-name agents into the Galaxy Football Group was a plan that Chen Ran had long thought of.

   After all, Chen Ran's advantage is that he has a better understanding of the development of world football before 2022. In particular, he knows which players will become stars in the future.

   However, this advantage will gradually diminish over time until it disappears.

  Chen Ran has been preparing for this day, so he thinks of these time-tested big-name brokers. These people discover the vision of the stars, and that is the real deal.

  So, Chen Ran planned to tie these big-name brokers to his own boat.

   If it is just an ordinary trading player, it may not be attractive to these big-name brokers.

   But what if they were also one of the owners of the club?

   Then they will definitely do their best to make suggestions for the development of the club for their own interests.

   It happened that this system rewarded the opportunity to acquire Recife Sports, and Chen Ran planned to test the effect on this Brazilian second-tier club first.

   I believe that with the addition of Ferger, the big man in the South American football agency, Recife Sports will be able to do more with less when recruiting young talents from the South American football circle.

  If Recife Sports' experiment works well, then Chen Ran plans to do it on Mendes and Raiola next.

  If all goes well, Chen Ran will not have to worry about not being able to buy talented players, even if the time exceeds 2022 in the future.

  After the end of the European Super Cup, it means that the new season of European football officially begins.

   In the first round of the Premier League, Crystal Palace's opponent is Middlesbrough.

   Since the new stadium of Crystal Palace is still under construction, Crystal Palace is still renting Arsenal's home games this season.

   However, because Arsenal's new stadium was officially opened this season, Crystal Palace also moved to this new stadium for games.

   However, the rental fee has risen from 3 million euros a year last year to 5 million euros a year now.

   Another point is that because Crystal Palace cut off the sponsorship of Emirates, so now Arsenal's new stadium is still using the name of Highbury Stadium until the title sponsorship is found.

   After the baptism of the treble last season, the Crystal Palace players are now more comfortable when facing these teams that are not as strong as themselves.

   With goals from Toni, Ibrahimovic and Ronaldo, Crystal Palace beat Middlesbrough 3-0 in their first Premier League game of the new season.

  The FA is also quite perverted. At the beginning of the season, a double game is arranged every week.

   Three days later, Crystal Palace ushered in the second round of the Premier League.

   With goals from Ibrahimovic and Ronaldo, Crystal Palace defeated Aston Villa 2-1 away.

   Three days later, the third round of the Premier League begins again.

  Crystal Palace scored with a header from Tony's Thiago Silva this time, and beat Wigan Athletic 1-0 away.

   A week later, in the fourth round of the Premier League, Crystal Palace faced Manchester City at home.

   With Kaka's goal, Crystal Palace beat Manchester City 1-0 and won the league's first four consecutive victories.

   After the first four rounds of the Premier League, the standings were in chaos.

  In addition to Crystal Palace and Manchester United playing steadily, they have achieved four consecutive victories.

  Portsmouth and Everton are third and fourth in the standings with three wins and one draw.

  Chelsea were pushed to fifth place with three wins, one loss and nine points, and Liverpool only got four points and ranked eleventh.

   And the worst is Arsenal, who only got two points and entered the relegation zone in 18th place.

   After the end of the fourth round of the Premier League, the new season of the Champions League will begin again.

  Crystal Palace was in Group G this time, along with Hamburg in Germany, Porto in Portugal and CSKA Moscow in Russia.

   Such a good grouping result made Chen Ran, who was mentally prepared for his non-Emirate attributes, a little unaccustomed to it.

  September 14th, the first game of Group G in the 2006-2007 UEFA Champions League, Crystal Palace will go away to challenge Hamburg.

  Although none of the three teams in the same group are as strong as Crystal Palace, Chen Ran still did not dare to take it lightly and made adequate preparations for this match.

   Because he found that there are still many stars he is familiar with in the Hamburg lineup.

   Obviously, this is not a soft persimmon that can be pinched casually.

   On the defensive line, there are famous players such as Belgium international Kompany, Argentina international Sorin, Iran international Madavikia Dutch international Mattison, Cameroon international Atuba and so on.

  The midfield also has Dutch internationals Van der Vaart, De Jong, and German international Troshowski.

   There are also famous players such as Peru international Guerrero and Serbia and Montenegro international Ljuboa on the forward line.

   Considering that it is the first Champions League game of the new season, and it is an away game, Chen Ran decided to focus on stability first.

   The three-back formation that Crystal Palace played well in the first few games, this game will return to the original four-back for the time being.
