  • The Rafael Benitez Column: Gerrard Can Recall How We Blocked out Ibrahimovic
    The Rafael Benitez Column: Gerrard can recall how we blocked out Ibrahimovic England must create a screen in front of the Sweden danger man and starve him Rafael Benitez Friday, 15 June 2012 England have a very clear obstacle tonight when they play Sweden in Kiev. Everyone will be talking about Zlatan Ibrahimovic and the impact he has already had in these championships for his country and before I go any further on the subject of England I must say that I think that there is a way of dealing with him. It's seven years since our Liverpool team encountered Ibrahimovic in the quarter-final of the Champions League, on our way to the Istanbul final of 2005. He was the big threat in Fabio Capello's Juventus side who we met at that stage but our three-man defence in the Stadio delle Alpi shut him out for the goalless draw that sent us through, after a 2-1 win at Anfield. Yes, Ibrahimovic is very dangerous in the air and he has a very fine touch, but he doesn't like physical contact too much. He's not the quickest player but when he receives the ball to his feet, he likes to keep it, controlling with his chest, perhaps, and bringing other players in. He likes to turn, pass, maybe win some fouls. You might say he's a little like Peter Crouch in some of these positive respects – a player who makes up in other ways what he might lack in pace. The key is to create a screen in front of Ibrahimovic, to prevent him receiving the ball in those areas.

  • Das Pokalfinale: Jetzt Ist Feierabend!
    DAS POKALFINALE: JETZT IST FEIERABEND! Mit dem Finale am Samstag (ab 20 Uhr, live in der ARD und auf Sky) zwischen dem FC Bayern München und Eintracht Frankfurt geht die 75. Pokalsaison zu Ende. Im Fokus stehen das große Fest des Fußballs und die goldene Trophäe. Aber so mancher Blick wird sicher auch auf die Trainerbänke gehen. Es gehört zu den Besonderheiten desdeutschen Pokalwettbewerbs, dass das Finale schon im Sommer beginnt und sich ausdehnt über Herbst und Winter bis in den Frühling. Zumindest gedanklich und akustisch ist das so. Schon in der ersten Runde, nach dem ersten Tor, noch entschlossener nach dem ersten Sieg, kündigen alle Fans mit dem immer gleichen Gesang eine Reise in die Hauptstadt an, nach „Berlin, Berlin“ fahren zu wollen. Ganz am Anfang ist das Ende schon ein Thema und es wird für immer weniger Teams immer größer. Ein richtig großes ist es inzwischen für Bayern München und Eintracht Frankfurt. Berlin, Berlin, jetzt sind wir in Berlin – unterstützt von Zehntausenden bei Deutschlands vielleicht schönstem Feierabend. Rookies sind beide Vereine nicht. In der 75. Saison stehen die Bayern zum 22. Mal im Pokalfinale, 18-mal haben sie es gewonnen. Für die Eintracht ist es das achte Endspiel, viermal gewannen sie es, und schon im Vorjahr waren sie dabei 1:2( gegen Dortmund). Nur für wenige auf dem Rasen ist dieses Finale im Olympiastadion also etwas Neues. Routine ist es jedoch für keinen. „Wir sind überglücklich, dass wir wieder nach Berlin wieder können. Manche waren ja noch nicht da, die freuen sich noch mehr darüber. Die das schon kennen, die wissen, wie geil das dort ist“, sagt Bayerns Innenverteidiger Mats Hummels.
