FINALLY THE POWER OF SPANISH FOOTBALL IS FULLY UNLEASH!!
THE PURE AND ORIGNIAL BEAUTY OF SPANISH FOOTBALL HAS BEEN FULLY PERFORMED!!
So let the drum roll begin..............
SPAIN! THE CHAMPION AND THE KING OF EUROPE!
I was so so so happy.......now this is the best chance to prove everyone that Spain is the REAL AND THE ORIGINAL FOOTBALL POWERHOUSE!!!
Frankly speaking, ALL THE WHILE DOWN THE YEARS, the playing style of Spanish football is always very creative and beautiful, plus the excellent ball technique of every individual players. U will surely feel the sensation and the fascination if u watch more Spanish LA LIGA football instead of EPL jus like me! I have been catching and focusing my attention on it for a long period of time! COME ON PEOPLE, FOOTBALL IS NOT JUS ABOUT ENGLAND AND EPL!!!! :X
My prayer indeed impact the nation of Spain, this country is always included in my prayer all the time, not only in the area of winning the EURO 2008, but the country as a whole, economically, socially etc......
Really wana thank God for His blessing at this country!!! To all Christians, now i have also proved tat PRAYER itself is a very powerful weapon, look at how it can impact a whole nation :)
Overall, it is really fantastic!!! THE NEXT AND UNTIMATE STEP FOR SPAIN, THAT IS TO WIN THE FIFA WORLD CUP CHAMPIONSHIP IN YEAR 2010!!!!
Really wana thank God for giving me this passion to love everything in Spain as a whole, their culture, their country, their language etc...not only their soccer!
THIS LOVE WAS DEVELOPED NATURALLY IN ME SINCE THE YEAR 2002.
***I still remembered on one occasion,whereby i was being impressed by a dream, which appeared out of nowhere when i was sleeping during 5 years ago. IN the dream, i saw myself walking out from the players' tunnel route............and towards the real football pitch of the fully packed MESTALLA STADIUM, one of the gigantic football stadium in SPAIN! It was the home stadium to one of the biggest football club in Spain, VALENCIA C.F! It is the football club which i loved the most since straight after the dream til now. I stil did remember how i teared and being impressed after i woke up from the dream..........................would it be a prophecy or something? haha....all is in God's hand........
Also wana thank my very best fren Hock lun too, for doing a part of assisting me to discover how nice is Spanish football couple of years ago....

Everything occured too suddenly........
Not only me, you people too, did not wish really for the particular turn-out during the time, but i jus cant simply prevent it from happening......
Yes....Past hurts, past bad experiences jus kept flashing back in my mind during the moment, yes we disagreed with one another views.
BUT AT THE SAME TIME : 1.) A wake up call by God destroyed the "cant be bothered" attitude in me towards one of my important personal issue. It urge really strongly to be deal with it immediately by the grace of God.
2.) A mirror was created by God to let me see how ugly is the main big flaw in me, which was left undealt for the
whole of my entire life until THIS VERY DAY.Now, i really believed tat a big part of the yoke of the main flaw was really smashed, not totally (as it needs some time) but a big amount of it.
Humans are not perfect, ALL OF US, regardless of our frens around us, our parents, they have their own weaknessess too, BUT the best solution for it is to
accept, encourage and help one another with the love of God.Jus wana thank God for for giving me the calmness during the moment, I could jus control myself emotionally and my strong fustration with ease....If God is not part of my life, the whole situation would be unpleasant.
" IN your anger, do not sin" as wat the WORD says.
Really really really really wana appreciate the care and concern and the friendship love by u 3 people, u should know who u people are.****Mei, i am sorry tat God had used one moment in your special day to deal with me personally. This might be abiT cruel or unfair to u but i jus cant avoid it, i am sorry..............................
In the first place, i feel really ashamed to face u 3 people, but God is good, His grace had summoned up the courage inside me and His wisdom to enlighten me.
Yes i admitted tat i have my wrongs too, i hope we can let go of wat had happened,
forgiveness is the key!!! Now, i am really willing to walk down the road of friendship together with u 3 people, without any shame and disgrace inside me!!! because u people had already offer the hand in the first place :) Again i say, lets serve one another, fellowship with one another and be a united soldiers who fight for God, AMen?
Jus like the good example of how Epaphroditus and the fellow workers live their lives for God in Phillipians............
Wana thank "Auntie C. or Da jie" alot for talking and sharing things with me when i am very down during the time, you seems like an Angel who is send by God to help me when i am in need :D :D :D :D
And one person too, (u should know who u are), haha.....even u cant really think of those wise solution to help me cos u are still very young, BUT BUT BUT please.....your presence had already do a big part by being there for me, comforting me and accompany and listening to me.
This is wat
TRUE FRENS for, even though the particular person is not mature enuff to give u good advices, BUT BUT BUT the REAL GENUINE CARING ATTITUDE AS A FREN IS ALREADY SUFFICIENT ENUFF!!!!! :D
I had learnt alot of things this days, yes, its i should say its painful, but this is the goodness of God.

Manage to fork out some time to update my recent events here....
There is no doubt that the EURO 2008 football season is going on really actively right now.....
For me, waking up at 3pm everyday and slept as late as 5am when catching and studying every matches technically and tactically......I was even forced to sleep only for 2 hours if there is a soccer training for me to conduct for my team this week.
The main talking point for EURO 2008 now is the downfall lost of the Current World Champion Italy to Holland.
10 June 08
HOLLAND 3 (Van nisterooy 26' Sneijder 31' Van bronckhost 78') ITALY 0
Out of every match analysis and report i did, let me share and reveal one of it, which i did for this particular match.
Above is the tactic formation and the starting line up, a 4-2-3-1 or an attacking 4-4-1-1 for Holland and 4-3-3 Italy.
* Great tactic formation played by Holland, 4-2-3-1 which is also another variations of 4-4-1-1
- Edwin Van Der Saar. A very experienced Goalkeeper, who reads the game well and equipped with solid technique in every goalkeeping skill aspects.
- 4 usual back defenders who provide a rock defence for Netherland in every recent major tournaments the team played in....
- 2 solid central midfielders anchor strongly in the center to provide a good connection to the attack and protect the back 4 defenders. Orlando Engelaar with a strong physical height of 1.96 and the efficient tireless midfielder Nigel De Jong.
- Pacey, skillful and top-class wingers, Kuyt (who shows great improvement as an winger than the days in Liverpool at this match) and Sneijder, creative attacking midfielder Van der Vaart at the center.
- Van Nisterooy, a striker who possess extreme sharp finishing skill and a complete composure for a striker.
* Holland opted to attack out wide to the both flank, playing 3 wide midfielders upfront, especially with 2 pacey and skillful left and right wingers.
***Great and fast Counter attack launched by Holland, which led to their 2nd and 3rd goal once Italy lost possession in their attacking half. Holland team exploits every spaces exposed by the Italy team, be it in the center and both the flanks.
Big big question, WHY ITALY LOST? WHAT CAUSE THE FAILURE OF THE TEAM???
1.) Reckless tackles committed from italy while defending. Thus conceded numerous free kicks to Holland to deliever dangerously. Italy missed clean, experienced and top quality defenders like Cannavaro, Nesta and Grosso(on e bench) to marshal the defence of the team well.
Thats the reason why Italy conceded their 1st goal via indirect free kick at a dangerous area in their own half.
2.) When Italy is attacking, especially with either one of the 3 central midfieders was holding on to the ball and moving forward, poor off the ball movement and lack of striker's composure by right winger Camoronesi, fail to run to a suitable place to receive a finishing pass to score. Di Natale at the left wide side demostrated this weakness occasionally.
3.) Lack of influential, creative attacking dictator like their former player TOTTI, who jus retired from the Italy team, to marshal and set up dangerous attack for Italy, as what he used to perform previously for the team in their 4-4-2 diamond or 4-3-3 variations. (PICTURE BELOW)
4.) The formation which Italy was using exposes quite a number of spaces for the opponent to attack, failure to recover back in time to defend causing them to be beaten by fast counter attack launched by Holland.
Below showed how Italy team moved and position when they are attacking and defending as well.
Below picture shows the spaces exposed by Italy when they lost possession upfront and caused Holland to start counter-attacking and score.....my goodness look at so many spaces they had exposed, those spaces which i had circled....
By e way, playing the standard formation of 4-3-3 indeed give spaces for opponent to play more freely when in certain occasion, those spaces which will be potentially exposed is circled by me, the picture below tells it....
------------------How Italy can get more positive desirable result???---------
------------------ In what ways Italy can perform more better??? ----------------------
*** That is to amend the tactic and style of play***
---- The nature playing style of Italy football is short passing, keeping ball possession and build up smoothly and patiently in the attack as a whole team. Looking for spaces to counter attack quickly is also added to the playing style. That's make Italy a very strong football team with excellent teamwork. This playing style is also used by numerous teams in the Italian Seria A.
+of+Image002.jpg)
Look at how much distance between IF ITALY IS TO PLAY A 4-3-3 formation, it will be hard for players to support one another and play a short passing possession football or patiently simple build up attack, becuase of the wide distance created between players, especially the midfield and attack....Insufficient of midfield in the center to play short possession football.Thus, this force Italy players, especially in the middle to play the ball directly up front always and easily losing the possession without patient passing build up in attack.
The picture above tells it....
If ITALY plays a 4-4-2 or a 4-4-1-1 formation, there will be an improved outcome for them....WHY????????
Look at the distance between players, it is much more closer in order for players to pass the ball around effectively and easily as a whole team. This formation suits the PLAYING STYLEOF ORIGINAL SHORT PASSING AND PATIENT BUILD UP OF ATTACK VERY WELL. THIS IS WAT TOP TEAMS IN ITALY FOOTBALL IS PLAYING.....
THIS IS WAT THE NATURE AND THE STRENGTH OF ITALY FOOTBALL!! THIS TACTIC AND PLAYING STYLE PLAY A HUGE CONTRIBUTION TO HELP ITALY TO BECOME THE WORLD CHAMPION IN WORLD CUP 2006!!! Anyway, these are my final conclusion.....SO stay tune for more studies and reports coming up! Enjoy the atmosphere of EURO 2008!
