The Ball at Your Feet

On the way back to China, Zhao Yaning was still reading the newspaper-the first round of the UEFA Champions League was over. Now, their results are also published in the newspaper.

After the first round of the UEFA Champions League game, the performance of the three teams in England made the English media feel a bit nonsense.

Liverpool tied with Bayern away-this game is not unexpected. Liverpool's schedule is too abnormal and definitely unable to go all out. Although the away result of 1-1 is not good, it is barely passable. It's just that Liverpool, as the defending champion, won the championship with an extremely arrogant seven-game winning streak in the knockout stage last year. This year, it came up with a draw, which made the English media feel that Liverpool played well and lost the arrogance of last year.

In fact, Liverpool did not play as well as last year, but in this game, the English media still paid off-Hargreaves played quite well in the game, and his effective interception alone made Liverpool miss at least three times. With a great opportunity, Figo was almost frozen by him. The player who was born in Canada, grew up in Germany and played for England is now more and more trusted by the English media and national team coach Eriksson. This gives the English media a reason to once again promote the strength of the'strongest three lions in history' and continue to shape the image of England's strong team.

In this game, Arsenal played unexpectedly.

All along, the image of Arsenal has been a typical civil war insider, foreign war outsider, and a typical example of soft feet in the Champions League. But this time, when they met Real Madrid, the second strongest player in the group, many people are no longer optimistic about them, but this time, they are unexpectedly not soft. Although two generals, Ashley Cole and Campbell, were missing from the defense, they relied on this improvised defense to prevent all attacks from Real Madrid. When it was even more surprising, they also scored a goal directly: Henry scored a goal for Arsenal after taking the ball directly in the midfield of Real Madrid.

Although this is only the first round of the round of 16 matches, most people still believe that this is definitely the most exciting goal in this UEFA Champions League. Riding thousands of miles on the Bernabeu Stadium is not something that everyone can do. And when they defeated Real Madrid 1-0 away, Arsenal had a great advantage after returning to the home court. Defeating Real Madrid and entering the top sixteen may not be as difficult as people think.

On the contrary, it was Chelsea. In this round of games, they lost 1-3 by a big score and lost six games in a row. It was really shaken. Even now, in England, rumors have spread. , Said that after this season, Mourinho will leave get out of class.

But this game, Mourinho is indeed not to blame-Drogba still did not play, he just returned from the national team, dusty and overworked, naturally can not play. While Galla and Duff are both injured and unable to play, coupled with the suspended Essien, Chelsea greet Milan in such a state, it is naturally difficult to win.

But even so, they did not expect that they would be played so badly by Milan-Kaka's solo attack, a long shot after a midfielder, Shepchenko and Kaka cooperated and entered the penalty area. , A small angle score in the penalty area, plus a free kick from Pirlo to assist Stam to score a header, three away goals, Milan's win can be said to be easy and simple.

Although Chelsea also resisted, Crespo also scored a goal, but such a goal can only be said to be better than nothing.

Unless it is 3-0 away, Chelsea may be able to advance-but it is impossible to beat this Milan 3-0 at the San Siro Stadium.

Chelsea’s journey to the Champions League has basically come to an end. The rest, that is, they are going to give up all at San Siro, or to fight to the death for dignity. This is also the most discussed issue. Many people think that Mourinho is a person who knows the current affairs and is likely to give up the Champions League and work hard in the league. However, Mourinho himself firmly stated that he would fight for a comeback and vowed to win the double crown. Such an attitude also makes people afraid to draw conclusions easily. After all, although Muriel has many other problems, he has never done anything like giving up the game.

As for the other teams, nothing was unexpected.

Lyon and Barcelona both defeated their opponents in the away game. Lyon defeated Eindhoven, who eliminated him last year, 1-0, and avenged half of their revenge. Barcelona defeated Werder Bremen 3-2 in the away game. In the away game, they, like Arsenal, have a high probability of qualifying.

And Inter Milan and Villarreal are both 2-2. They drew Ajax and Glasgow Rangers in away games. Although it was a tie, they both scored two away goals. It is also very advantageous to qualify.

The only team to win at their home court is Portugal's Benfica. They defeated Juventus 3-2 in their home game. However, considering the two away goals, such a victory can only say who won.

"The current strength of the Champions League has a big gap. It is obviously very difficult for the second team in the group to beat the first team in the group. After this game, we can already be very good. I can see what will happen in the subsequent games: It is very likely that none of the teams in the second group will be able to go smoothly."

In fact, this is also a matter of luck. If Chelsea drew Inter Milan, or Bayern drew Lyon, the outcome is difficult to say. But this time, the luck of the second team in the draw was not very good, and the strength gap between them and the first team in their draw was a bit big, which made the possibility of qualifying upset too much.

In addition to the results, what is more pleasing is that after the game, Walcott also became famous. Before this game, when people mentioned him, they would only say that he was the Premier League Winter Standard King, and he was famous for his worth. However, in this game, he relied on his performance to make the whole Premier League, and even All Europe's eyes were on this amazingly fast little guy.

Receiving the ball from the penalty area of ​​one's own side and ran to the opponent's penalty area to pass back-this process is not so difficult. But the problem is that he accomplished all this in ten seconds. It was a famous full-back like Lizarazu who chased him wildly behind him, with such an opponent, such a stage, and such a background board. He also became famous in one fell swoop.

Few people will notice how rare this opportunity is. How many times can a person encounter in a lifetime when such a massive offense is empty in the backcourt? Walcott ran for several tens of meters from receiving the ball to passing the ball. He hadn't even been a single person. He was just playing running, and he was racing against him. He was still a 37-year-old full-back. In fact, such a good opportunity, if it is Irving who gets the ball, it is an excellent forward like Ronaldo, it would be useless to humiliate Kahn. But what Walcott did was just pass back assists, which was fundamentally different from top players.

But even so, it is enough for him to be noticed by everyone. There are even rumors that England wants to take him to the World Cup.

What a lucky guy-but thinking about it, the British also want to use him against the slow line of defense in Germany, right? After all, Irving is now disabled, and England is missing a big weapon, and now he is in desperate medical treatment. The British did not know when, as if they were kicked out of the nightmare by the Germans, they have always regarded the Germans as their worst enemy, always thinking about how to fight against Germany. The biggest problem with the German defense line is that the speed of turning around and chasing them is surprisingly slow. Those who have enough speed to break through them are an absolute killer.

It's always a good thing to see the young people on your team grow. When Zhao Yaning was happy, he became more interested in playing this Asian Cup qualifier. In this game, in the end, Daewoo scored a goal, Zheng Zhi scored a goal and won 2-1.

However, at the same time as the game was over, Zhao Yaning also received the news: Liverpool was on the road and was tied 1-1 by Manchester City.

Sure enough, what is it afraid of... In response, Zhao Yaning gave a wry smile and rushed back to Liverpool. At this time, he was surprisingly not in a hurry: He knew best what the team became tired. Even he had systematic protection and never had physical problems. It was because of mental fatigue that problems appeared, and his teammates were even more tired. What can blame teammates?

When he arrived at the club, before he could speak, Sissoko stood up and said, "It is my responsibility to not win. My return pass error caused the loss of this game, and I am all to blame."

Zhao Yaning asked carefully before understanding the matter: when he lost the ball, after he got the ball, he originally wanted to pass it back to Reina, but he didn't notice the player next to him-if it was normal, he would not. Will make such a mistake, but because of the injury, his eyes have not fully recovered, so he has to wear glasses to live his life. The glasses seriously interfered with his vision, so that he could not see the opponent's striker, and also allowed Manchester City to get a chance to tie the game. And Reina, who had just returned, did not have a good blockade of the opponent's striker, which allowed Manchester City to score and finally got a 1-1 draw.

"That stupid glasses, I won't wear them again." Although his eyes are still not clear, Sissoko refused to listen to whoever persuaded him and resolutely stopped wearing glasses. "This **** stupid thing hurt We lost the ball and I will never touch it again."

"Momo, health is much more important than winning." Zhao Yaning also persuaded, but Sissoko still shook his head, which made him wonder what to say, "I also have the responsibility. If I insist on staying, it will be fine. "

"And me, I didn't complete the task of opening up the space, and my condition would be better." Garcia also said.

"My long shots are not very reliable either." Gerrard opened his mouth.

"In the final analysis~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I was the one who lost the single shot. It is more responsible than anyone else. You are all losers." Reina also spoke.

"Momo, no one blames you, that thing is not a bad thing, on the contrary, if you don’t bring it, and get injured, we will feel more guilty, and we will not be in the mood to play the game." Zhao Yaning said, "And, it’s not. Have we lost a game, how far are we ahead of Chelsea before losing this game?"

"Five points?"

"what about now?"

"Three points."

"Aren't we still leading? What are you afraid of! One game is played and one game is lost. They want to catch up with us, it's not that easy!"

But it's just a few points ahead, not behind. Moreover, what happens even if you fall behind? After this game, the Liverpool players have improved their fighting spirit because of self-blame and excitement. Why should Liverpool like this be afraid of Chelsea?

However, this is easy to say, but it is difficult to do. In the game against Arsenal, Liverpool fell behind in just ten minutes.
