The opening game of the Club World Cup, Messi's last entry
When watching the New Club World Cup, I wonder if I noticed that the way of entry for this game is different from usual games. It is not collective entry, but very American approach to enter the game one by one, just like the NBA or fighting game. Sportbladet's frontline reporters also learned their views from the players participating in the Club World Cup during the game.
Riyadh new moon star Cancelo said after a 1-1 draw with Real Madrid: "No, no, no, I don't like this, I prefer to enter the court with the team."
Bayern star Koeman was asked if he liked this new attempt after the 10-0 Auckland City game, and he said: "They are trying to do something different. I don't know what it looks like on TV, but I think it will look better there than in reality. But it doesn't matter, it's harmless, I hope fans like it too."
Manchester City star Aker said: "Yes, this is really new and very different, but I don't think it will be done in the Premier League."
For American League players who are used to American sports style, they don't like it very much. Los Angeles FC midfielder Marki Delgado said: "Haha, this approach is really American, and I said that when I was chatting with the team. I won't say I hate it, but it's really different. I also prefer the traditional way of entry. It takes a little too long to enter one by one, but I can understand what the organizer wants."
