Chapter 451 Breaking the Record

Stephen Ross sat depressed in the chairman's stand at the Red Bull Stadium in New York, looking at the bottom of the pitch. Baidu Xia * Guest * Chinese * Chinese * Net * First * Release

When the whistle came at the end of the game, he vaguely heard the dissatisfied boos from the fans from the sparse seats in the stands.

Even before the game was over, he kept seeing disappointed fans leave the stadium early.

It's so depressing, isn't it?

Even he himself, as the organizer of the event, was very depressed about the game.

Zero to zero, you darn, at least score a goal!

He turned his head again and looked at Abramovich and Galliani. The two had a fight just now during the halftime break to protect their team, and they are still sulking.

They all felt that the other party was too conservative!

Chelsea is not a team that is good at attacking.

This summer, the new head coach Benitez joined. The Spanish fat man is famous for attaching importance to the balance of offense and defense. Coupled with the unfavorable signing of Chelsea's summer transfer, he has successively played in Modric, Stromman, Hazard and Azpilicueta has stumbled, making Chelsea still in adjustment and turmoil.

As for Milan, the Serie A team has always respected defense. After Milan let go of Pirlo last summer, the organization ability of the midfield has dropped significantly.

Although the frontcourt is surrounded by famous stars such as Pacini and Robinho, as well as the Italian local teenager Shalawi who emerged last season, forming a frontcourt offensive combination, but without the support of the midfield, the frontcourt cannot fly. stand up.

In this case, the game between the two teams at the Red Bull Stadium in New York looked not at all an offensive feast for fans' entertainment, but a dull battle to see who made fewer mistakes.

Both sides made a ton of mistakes in the game, offensive mistakes, defensive mistakes, and midfield passing mistakes.

Makes the whole game look unspeakably depressing!

In the end, the score of zero to zero reflects the process of the game very well.

Fans boo, Stephen Ross is not surprised at all.

Fans all over the world are the same,

They all want to see a wave of offensive, you come and I go back and forth.

Instead of the situation that just happened, you are strong and clear, I am clear and strong, see who can defend!

Doesn't this play people?

Oh, I spent four hundred dollars and drove here just to see your tacit defense?

Aren't I making a fool of myself?

So, don't blame the fans for booing!

Stephen Ross himself knew this clearly, so he was depressed!

"Is the game over there over?"

The voice of the American real estate tycoon at this time seemed very low and indescribably old.

Even the look on his face that was full of excitement now looks tired, and the whole person seems to be a lot older.

Matt Higgins came up and nodded, "It's over."

"How is it?" Stephen Ross quickly asked.

The news he most wanted to hear was that things were pretty bad over there, too.

Well, this person, when he is lucky, always wants to be alone, but when he is unfortunate, he wishes to share the burden with the brothers and sisters in trouble.

But it was clear that Matt Higgins was not getting the information he wanted.

So, the young American hesitated, not knowing what to say.

Stephen Ross sighed, "It's okay, I'm mentally prepared, you talk!"

This time even Abramovich and Galliani came over.

Matt Higgins nodded and said, "According to the information, a total of 82,357 fans were attracted there. The final result of the game was three to three, Manchester United and Southampton. draw."

This time Abramovich and Galliani's faces became ugly.

It's all a draw. How can someone else play three to three, but we can only play zero to zero?

Galliani glanced at the Russians, isn't it you?

Oh, look at the set of midfielders that Benitez put out, why didn't the most creative Adam Lallana play?

You made it clear that you don't plan to attack, you just want to defend!

Abramović stopped doing it, what are we to blame?

Oh, you all retreated to the front of your own big penalty area, just waiting for us to press on and attack?

Do you think I'm a fool?

Our own offense is also very problematic right now, okay?

If we attack now, you will get cheap counter-attacks. We will be devastated by then. If you win the ball, you will be stunned. Is there such a cheap thing?

Stephen Ross looked at these two people. Although he didn't speak, his eyes were filled with the smell of gunpowder coming and going, and he sighed again. Who are these people?

Look at people, how well organized.

More than 82,000 fans, based on the average ticket price of 400 US dollars, that is more than 35 million US dollars.

Also, I heard that Southampton’s training camp on the east coast of the United States has attracted nearly 100,000 fans to visit their training camps. The training tickets for one fan are $50, and this income alone will take to five million dollars.

Also Manchester United, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, and other teams?

If you count Adidas, Coca-Cola and other sponsors from Yagopei, and if you add up the broadcast fees that are very small but also very objective, Miracle Media will not be able to lose money for this event!

At least there is no problem in returning to this book!

Maybe they still plan to make money!

Moreover, the game is wonderful, six goals, on average, one goal is scored in fifteen minutes, so enjoyable!

This time, people will definitely win word of mouth and win the market!

On my own side, lose both!

Matt Higgins sat aside, feeling the depression in Stephen Ross's heart.

But he is also very clear that Stephen Ross must not be discouraged, otherwise, how can he continue his golden-collar job? Wasn't it just beaten back to its original shape overnight?

"Boss, in fact, the main problem is not the team, but the rules."

"rule?"

"Yes, when they designed the rules of the International Champions Cup group stage, they obviously encouraged goals, not only because goals have bonuses, but also because once they have two teams on the same score, the first priority is the number of goals. ."

Matt Higgins' remarks left Stephen Ross speechless.

My side is fighting in a hurry, and the competition system itself is not considered comprehensive enough.

Also, I spent a lot of money to invite teams before, which led to the savings in terms of bonuses. As a result, the problem was exposed.

Stephen Ross is so depressed, how could things turn out like this?

"It's okay, boss, we still have an evening game. Los Angeles Galaxy against Everton in the Premier League is also very interesting!"

Stephen Ross listened and almost roared.

Look good? There's a fart!

The evening matchup was between Bayern Munich and Real Madrid at the FedEx Stadium in Washington, where there are more than 80,000 people.

You use LA Galaxy and Everton to play against the giants that are star-studded?

Isn't that looking for death?

Thinking of this, Stephen Ross felt disheartened.

Lost! Completely lost!

At least in this year's event, I will not only lose to my competitors, but also lose a lot of money!

At least he still hasn't figured out what to do with the money lost in the event!

…………

…………

Facts have proved that the duel on the football field is often not determined by the players on the field.

The results of many games are already doomed the moment both sides walk into the stadium.

In the first round of the International Champions Cup against the North American Invitational Tournament, the International Champions Cup completely wiped out the attendance rate of more than 8,000 fans in the North American Invitational Tournament with an attendance rate of more than 82,000 fans.

This is not surprising, because the Red Bull Stadium is only full of more than 20,000 people.

In the evening, in the second game, the International Champions Cup launched Bayern Munich against Real Madrid, which once again detonated the enthusiasm of fans all over the world, especially Uncle Bird himself, with his star lineup, rushed to Washington to help.

When that coquettish song [ ] rang out at the FedEx Stadium in Washington, almost all the 80,000 fans in the audience were soft and fluffy. It was too coquettish, is there anything?

Especially with the chubby body of Uncle Bird, but the coquettish dance, I feel very happy.

And back to football itself, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich themselves are also high on the offensive, through this kind of unreserved offensive football, using opponents to test their teams.

The two sides played a high score of five to three, and finally Real Madrid was slightly better.

This also makes fans all over the world hooked!

On the other hand, in another game held in Washington, LA Galaxy and Everton ended with the latter 2-1.

But this game only attracted more than 3,000 fans to the scene.

For no other reason, fans from the entire Washington area went to see Bayern Munich play Real Madrid.

To use the ridicule of the New York Times, the International Champions Cup is like a fashionable beauty covered in jewels, while the North American Invitational is a yellow-faced woman who smells of oil smoke.

As the most popular football sport among young people, it is self-evident who is more likable!

In fact, with the International Champions Cup being an instant hit in New York and Washington, games on the West Coast were sold out.

Even when the second round of the group stage ignited the war again, the attendance rate of the International Champions Cup was still high, and countless fans complained that it was hard to get a ticket.

Especially in the third round, it was about the battle for the right to qualify for the group. In order to ensure the right to qualify for the group, Southampton competed with Real Madrid in Ann Arbor, and the two sides ended up 3 to 1. Southampton was better. .

And this game also attracted 110,000 fans to watch the game, not only a football game with the largest audience in American history, but even more than the Super Bowl, which Americans are most proud of. Attendance record.

That is, this battle, almost shocked the entire United States, and even the whole world!

Eleven thousand people!

Even 110,000 people came to the scene to watch the focus battle between Southampton and Real Madrid. What a spectacular scene!

And you must know that it is not just a lot of people, but a great momentum.

That means money, money flowing in endlessly!

Not only on the east coast, but on the west coast, the last group match between Barcelona and Arsenal also attracted more than 85,000 fans to watch the game. In the end, Barcelona defeated Arsenal 4-2. .

Looking at the entire group stage of the International Champions Cup, everyone was surprised to find that the lowest attendance rate was more than 70,000.

This can not help but even the domestic media in the United States are amazed and shocked.

It was even issued. Whoever dares to say that the United States is a football desert in the future will use this data to slap their faces!

The head coach of the US national team, Klinsmann, said in a high-profile manner that governments across the United States should vigorously support such events, activate the football enthusiasm of American fans, and promote the development of the American football industry.

In fact, the International Champions Cup is on fire, and the harvest is not just fame, not just money.

Harvest, there is a brighter future! ()
