However, although Mark does not need to consider whether the CSKA is a mysterious team, some people must consider such a thing.

And this person is naturally the head coach of Atletico Madrid. Cooper does not know much about this team, and the CSKA team of Moscow has a very military background when they hear it.

The CSKA Moscow has always been affiliated with the Soviet Army Department before, and he also has a very appropriate nickname. The Red Army did not become the Red Army because of Liverpool's words because of the head coach, but the serious Soviet Red Army.

For the CSKA Moscow, although their reputation is not very high, it is not up to their luck to reach the final.

The CSKA Moscow still has many powerful players, especially their Brazilian foreign players are very strong. Of course, the most important thing is the mystery of the CSKA Moscow. Although the game has reached the final, Cooper can only make a judgment on the team based on the video of the game.

Because Cooper would not watch the matches in the Russian league, but in fact, Atletico Madrid had already played against the former Soviet team. When he played against Dynamo Kiev in Ukraine, Cooper felt that he had already mastered a little trick to defeat them.

As time goes by, it is about to start playing between the two sides. At this time, Cooper is also doing the most important pre-match training of the season in the team's locker room.

Because this game is not only very important to Atletico Madrid players, but also very important to Cooper.

Cooper is no longer young, he no longer has the same aura as before. It can be said that Cooper is coaching entirely based on his desire for championships, so this time the championship is very important for Cooper.

If he can win the League Cup championship, Cooper might have room for improvement in coaching level. If he cannot win the championship, Cooper may not be able to withstand the blow of failure.

Although Cooper has never won a championship in his coaching career, he is already very old after all. He has already been to many clubs before. If Cooper could not win the championship, then Cooper can be understood as having a bad luck and he should not have the hope of coaching the team.

Of course, Cooper is not short of money. Cooper is not an extravagant person. The salary he earned as a head coach over the years should be enough for him to spend his whole life. So this game should be a very important thing for Cooper, because this is Cooper's inner demon. It depends on whether the Atletico Madrid players can help him open it.

"The CSKA in this game will use strong offensive tactics, which is exactly what we like. We must adopt defensive tactics in this game and use our counterattack efficiency to fight against them." Cooper began to say at this time: "With our outstanding defensive ability to win this game."

"Do you have the confidence to win this game?" After Cooper saw that the players seemed to have no motivation, he also shouted at them.

"Get down, win, kill them," the Atletico Madrid players shouted.

In fact, the players of Atletico Madrid before were a little nervous, including Mark. After all, this is the final of the League Cup, which is the second largest event in the European Club Cup second only to the Champions League.

There are some players of Atletico Madrid. They all participated in the European game for the first time. Unexpectedly, they could play directly to the end and then appear in the finals of the League Cup. This should be said to be extremely glorious.

However, although young players like Mark and Torres are talented and confident, they are the first time they have participated in such a top-level event. And at the last moment, they are under a lot of pressure in their hearts and their burdens are also very heavy.

But after Mark yelled, he felt much more relaxed. Although Mark was still a little nervous, he had to play the game immediately. Mark knew that in the next game, he must not be neglected. He must seize all opportunities and help the team win the game.

Soon, the players from both sides walked out of the locker room, stood at the player passage, and were waiting for the next appearance. At this time, Mark saw a Moscow CSKA player beside him muttering to himself something.

But Mark didn't know Russian at all, so Mark naturally didn't know what he was saying. Mark felt that he might be praying.

The player Mark saw was Olic, the No. 9 player of the CSKA Moscow. Olic was indeed praying, and the content of the prayer was to hope that God could bless him to score in this game.

But Olic probably didn't know that God is now standing on Mark's side, preparing to say that God was staying on Mark's neck, so he had no time to realize his wish.

At this time, both players walked into the stadium. Mark saw that the fans on both sides had already sat down. After the players on both sides appeared, screams and applause also resounded throughout the stadium.

The Alvarad Stadium can also be said to be full. The stadium, which originally had only more than 40,000 seats, seemed to have more than 50,000 fans flooded into it.

Of course, some fans are standing and watching the game, but these fans who stand and watching the game feel very lucky, because many fans have no tickets after coming to Lisbon, and they cannot enter the stadium and can only worry outside.

"Mark, you must score a goal in this game!!" At this time, Mark heard a woman shouting behind him. Mark looked back and saw that it was Old Jason who appeared here. Unexpectedly, Old Jason actually came here to watch the game.

Mark directly stretched out his thumb and gestured to Jason. Mark's meaning was very clear, which means that he would definitely be able to do it, so that he could rest assured.

Players from both sides quickly walked into the stadium, and the game was broadcast live by multiple media outlets. The Spanish media's slogan this time was surprisingly unified, that is, to support Atletico Madrid.

In fact, this is easy to understand, because Atletico Madrid has become the only seedling in the entire La Liga at this time, and Atletico Madrid is not only representing themselves at this time.

They are already the representatives of the La Liga in the League Cup, so at this time, Atletico Madrid naturally represents Spain.

At this time, the commentator began to announce the starting list of both sides of the game:

Atletico Madrid (4312): Goalkeeper: Franco; defender: Velasco, Baboro, Perea, Sergi; Midfielder: Mascherano, Lucin, Corsa; Midfielder: Van der Fate; Forward: Mark, Torres (captain)

CSKA Moscow (352): Goalkeeper: 35-Akinfeyev; Defender: 24-Vasily Berezuksky, 4-Ignaschevic (captain), 6-Alexey Berezuksky; Midfielder: 15-Chidi Odia, 22-Artonin, 7-Daniel Carvalho, 25-Rahimic, 18-Zilkov; Forward: 11-Wagner Lovi, 9-Oric

This time, Atletico Madrid chose the left-back choice, Cooper chose the veteran Sergi, who is more experienced, and instead put the previous main left-back Antonio Lopez on the bench.

Cooper may also want to give veteran Sergi the experience, and then help young players of Atletico Madrid to find a little experience as soon as possible, and then be able to consolidate Atletico Madrid's defense line.

Because in the CSKA Moscow, their offensive capabilities are very strong, but the CSKA is a team that has reached the present with its super offensive capabilities.

In the front line of the CSKA Moscow, Lovi, Olic and Carvalho can be called tridents.

Wagner Lovie started his club career with Palmeiras. He helped the club return to the Brazilian Football League, the highest-level league in Brazil in 2003. He was valued by the CSKA Moscow in the summer of 2004 and became a member of the team. The CSKA Moscow spent about £4 million when signing.

Olic was born in a village in Davao, Broad-Posavina County, Croatia. He started his football career in the local club Masonia in 1996. He was beaten by Bundesliga Hertha Berlin in just two years. But he returned to Masonia soon after, and scored 17 goals in 29 games in the 200001 season. Therefore, he transferred to the Croatian Football League A club Zagreb in 2001, scoring 21 goals in 28 games, helping the team win the league championship.

With his outstanding performance, Dynamo Zagreb, the Croatian giants in 2002, scored 16 goals in 27 games. In addition to helping the team regain the league championship, he became the league's top scorer.

In 2003, Olic transferred to the CSKA Moscow. Olic can be said to be a diligent killer. He is simply a defensive player in the penalty area. "Ugly disc drive" and "clumsy crossing posture" are the words that the world football programs often tease Olic. It is true that Olic does not have the wrist of a big-name star from appearance to figure to aura. But sometimes those simple and unpretentious movements are the most effective; let's think about Galin Cha in ancient videos.

The ball was shaking around without moving. Although the opponent was dodged, he quickly made it back. Such an outing is only viewing but not practical. Not to mention that De Nelson was riding a bicycle in front of the French team and was stunned by himself. Toulam still did not move at all. He closed the door and put De Nelson outside. Another major advantage of Olic is that he ran tirelessly. Many opportunities were seized by himself, so Olic also poses great threat to Atletico Madrid.

However, the most threatening players are not these two forward players, but their midfielder Daniel Carvalho. As a left-footed player, Carvalho plays as a left-wing forward and can compete in any position in the midfield. Born on March 1, 1983, 178 cm tall and weighs 79 kg, he is a "demon" player with great talent and growth potential. This Brazilian star, known as the "Large and Ronaldo combination", landed in Europe in the winter of 2004, but did not choose a league with many Brazilian players like Ligue 1 or La Liga like his many predecessors. Instead, he came to the Russian League, which was cold and paid more attention to physical confrontation. Carvalho, who played in the Russian League, not only retained the traditional delicate skills of Brazilian players, but also greatly improved his physical confrontation.

Moreover, Carvalho's scoring ability is also very strong. In the last round of the game, Carvalho scored two goals by himself, so his ability is also very strong.

Of course, it is not that others do not need to pay attention to it, but in the CSKA Moscow game, most of the goals were completed by these three players.

However, although Cooper made a key arrangement before the game, Atletico Madrid players still inevitably developed a mentality of asking for instructions, because in the eyes of these players, Russian football is the representative of rough football.

Their players have no technical players at all, so Atletico Madrid has not paid enough attention to the CSKA game.

However, this lack of attention was the players of Atletico Madrid after the opening, because the CSKA Moscow did not rely on physical confrontation to play, and their cooperation in the frontcourt was also very beautiful, and they were simply playing technical football.

In fact, this is also because of Carvalho's existence. Carvalho's midfielder was sorted out in order by sorting out the CSKA Moscow's midfielder. Moreover, because Carvalho's range of activities on the stadium is also very large, so the players of Atletico Madrid at this time were naturally not adapted to Carvalho's defense.

In fact, it is no wonder. After all, the players of Atletico Madrid are more adaptable to the CSKA Moscow's playing style. Moreover, since the players of Atletico Madrid underestimate the opponent, the situation on the court seems very passive.

However, if Atletico Madrid players knew the backstage of CSKA Moscow, they would not underestimate this team. Now, Chelsea's boss in the Premier League is the boss behind the CSKA Moscow.

However, because of the fair game principle of European football, a person cannot own two clubs, so Abramovich sold his shares exclusively, but he still retained a small part of the shares, and the Siberian gas company controlled by Abramovich is sponsored by Moscow CSKA every year.

It is said that if the CSKA Moscow can win the League Cup this season, there will be a sponsorship fee of 10 million euros next season. In this game, the CSKA Moscow also gave a huge prize for winning the championship. I don’t know the specific number, but it won’t be too small anyway.

At the same time, Abramovich also came to Lisbon on his private yacht to watch the CSKA Moscow, so the CSKA Moscow is not an ordinary team at all.

If they are willing, they can definitely be directly matched by Chelsea in Russia, which is nothing wrong.

After Cooper saw the performance of CSKA on the stadium, he knew that Atletico Madrid seemed to have met an opponent, and now it depends on who can score the football in between.

In fact, the CSKA Moscow is a mysterious team for Atletico Madrid, but the Atletico Madrid is also a mysterious team for the CSKA Moscow.

Because Atletico Madrid was still scrambling to play in the second division the year before yesterday.

Atletico Madrid only advanced to the First League last year, and then in its second season of promotion, the team actually reached the final of the League Cup, which is simply possible for ordinary teams.

Although the CSKA Moscow is not very famous in Europe, it is also a traditional strong team in the Russian Super League and has recently become a strong contender for the league championship.

So at this time, the head coach of the CSKA Moscow was not very confident because he didn't know much about Atletico Madrid's team.

For Gazayev, there should be three players in Atletico Madrid that need the most defense, Mark, Torres, Van der Fate. Apart from these three people, the other players of Atletico Madrid should not have any strong personal abilities.

When the head coaches of both sides are relatively not fully prepared, it depends on which head coach has good command on the spot. If a head coach with strong on-the-spot adaptability, it should make appropriate adjustments based on what happens on the court.

At this time, Cooper took the lead in making adjustments. He asked Mark to return to the penalty area to help the team defend, leaving only one forward in the frontcourt Torres.

Van der Fate also retreated to the midfielder position to help the team defend. Such changes should reduce the defensive pressure of Atletico Madrid a lot.

But there is also a very serious problem, that is, when Atletico Madrid counterattacks, they should not have any effective troops to continue attacking.

It seems that Cooper is also preparing to stabilize the defense first and then counterattack. When counterattacking, Cooper may have to rely on Torres' individual combat capabilities.

It seems that the mysterious CSKA Moscow has also created a lot of difficulties for Atletico Madrid at this time. If the game is carried out at this pace, it will be a very unfavorable thing for Atletico Madrid.
