Chapter 608
(Today is still [-] words)

This night in London, the Hoffenheim stars are shining, Arshavin, Eduardo, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Demba Ba, everyone has played well, but Li Huan is still the brightest star.In the offensive, he completed the most important first away goal for Hoffenheim. It was Li Huan's goal, which was called a once-in-a-lifetime goal by the commentator Adams, which shattered Arsenal's psychological bottom line, and then Arsenal lost their composure. , was counterattacked again and again by Hoffenheim.

After the game, Li Huan was also the most sought after by reporters and fans. Many British fans also stayed at the scene and cheered for Li Huan with Hoffenheim fans.Numerous reporters surrounded Li Huan for on-site interviews.

The team won the victory, and Hoffenheim was in a good mood. Li Huan accepted the reporter's interview for the first time after coming to London.

The interviews of the British journalists were very different from those of the German journalists. The first thing a reporter from The Sun asked was, "Lee, do you think Hoffenheim can win the Champions League?"

The team had a clean sheet away from Arsenal. Li Huan was in a good mood and made no secret of his ambition, saying: "Of course, we can become the top four teams in Europe. Of course we have the strength to win the championship, and we are also very confident. We have become Even stronger, Arshavin and Van Nistelrooy have already integrated into the team, they are all geniuses, today's score and their performance have already explained everything."

"Your next opponent is Manchester United?" "The Sun" reporter said.

Li Huan shrugged his shoulders easily and said, "The Super Bowl score can also answer your question."

"The Super Cup and the Champions League are not the same thing, and Ronaldo didn't play in that game."

Li Huan smiled and said confidently: "You're right, Ronaldo didn't play that game, so I've always regretted it. I hope he won't be absent this time."

"Are you going to challenge Cl Luo again?"

"It's okay if you think so. He is a striker and I am a defender. It is normal to meet each other. It is my wish to play against the best striker in the world."

"Do you think Ronaldo is the best striker in the world?"

"He is at least one of the best, Drogba, Messi, Torres are all great."

"Is there any other meaning to this game for you besides entering the semi-finals?"

Li Huan smiled and said: "I understand what you mean. This is our first time participating in the Champions League. Beating a team like Arsenal is very helpful for our self-confidence. We have also accumulated the skills to deal with Arsenal. The experience of a strong team will be of great help to us in the following games.”

"Do you know that you are now only one goal away from the Champions League scoring record achieved by AC Milan player Altafini 47 years ago?"

Li Huan said: "I heard it mentioned by my teammates and the media, but the team's winning is the most important thing. I am not a striker, so I rarely think about these statistics. Of course, if I can break a record, I will be happier."

"If you can reach the final, who do you want to play next? Barcelona or Chelsea?"

Li Huan pondered slightly, and said: "I hope it's Chelsea, but Barcelona is more likely to enter the final. But no matter who it is, as long as we can reach the final, we must beat them."

In the post-match press conference, Wenger admitted the defeat and praised Li Huan highly, "We couldn't deal with Hoffenheim's defender Li, which was one of the important reasons why we lost the game. He is really not a defender, his attack power is amazing, even if Clichy can play, we can't stop him, his first goal ruined all our hopes, he deserves to be the world's footballer, he not only Is the best defender in the world, he is also the best player in the world.

We disappointed the Arsenal fans. Before the game, everyone hoped that we could repeat the glory of the 0607 season, and then sent the game like this. It is really disappointing.

Actually by the time we conceded the second goal, it was impossible to advance, we were just fighting for dignity.But their defense was very good and we couldn't break their goal. "

However, Wenger was still dissatisfied with Hoffenheim's style of play and was a little unwilling to be out. "We were defeated by a team with the art of finishing games. They caught every mistake we made, and Li Huan let us It was very tough. I thought they would play defensively and counterattack, but I didn't expect that they would fight for a tie from the first game. Hoffenheim has always given me the impression of being full of passion before, daring to fight against anyone The team played against each other, but they let me down, insisting on art is very difficult, especially in the modern football environment, everyone is very utilitarian and never considers the fans."

Hoffenheim coach Rangnick did not get carried away by Wenger's "sweet words", he emphasized the collective efforts, "Li Huan deserves everyone's praise, his first goal is very important to us. He is a perfect example of a player, although it is very difficult to reach his level. Li Huan is the best player in the world, but he can still improve.

The victory is the result of collective efforts. Arshavin, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Demba Ba, and Eduardo all performed very well. The defense should be commended today. Arsenal's offensive power is very strong, and it is a great achievement to keep them clean. "

Wenger accused Hoffenheim of playing conservatively, and Rangnick also defended, "Conservative should mean that a team has the ability to attack and defend, but Hoffenheim is slightly worse than Arsenal. , if we play against Arsenal, the only result is to lose. We have come to the present, we don't want to lose, and my Hoffenheim fans also want us to win. We must be responsible to the Hoffenheim fans. Other fans There is nothing we can do if we are not happy.”

After Li Huan finished the interview, he went back to the locker room to take a shower, then went back to the hotel to change into a casual shirt, and secretly took a taxi to the "London Royal" Hotel. Sun Hai had been waiting at the door for a long time. Li Huan congratulated with joy on his face: "Li Huan, you guys are really amazing. It's really amazing that you defeated and entered the semi-finals."

Li Huan followed Sun Hai to the hotel and said, "It's just luck, Arsenal is very strong, just the two of us, why come to such a luxurious hotel."

Sun Hai laughed and said, "In London, I'm already a half-landlord. With your wealth and status, how can I take you to eat street food again?"

Li Huan laughed and said: "Snacks are better. They have local characteristics, and you can't eat them in other places. They are better than big hotels."

Sun Hai's expression was a little erratic, and he said: "Yes, I can't eat it in another place. If you count the year in the Crystal Palace, I have stayed in the UK for ten years."

"In the blink of an eye, I have also been in Germany for four years."

Li Huan had just won the game and was excited. He didn't pay attention to Sun Hai's lonely expression. When he came to the room, the two of them sat down separately. Immediately, the waiter brought the food and drinks. Sun Hai asked the waiter to go out, and the two chatted while drinking.

Sun Haidao: "You can't say it was luck to win Arsenal. The tactics you adopted were very targeted. In the Premier League, Arsenal were most afraid of the opponent's intensive defense and fought recklessly. Even we were often able to beat them back then."

Li Huan remembered Wenger's complaints after the game, and couldn't help laughing: "Fortunately, Rangnick knew how to adapt, otherwise we would definitely lose, but the next game against Manchester United will be difficult. Ferguson, an old guy, is better than Wenger." Tougher to deal with, he can do anything to win games. A type of guy like Mourinho."

Sun Hai also said with a serious face: "Ferguson is definitely a combination of a fox and a wolf. The semi-finals must be a life-and-death battle, much more tragic than yours. But you should have overfulfilled the task so far, right? Without the burden, maybe it can create a bigger miracle."

Li Huan said: "Judging from the Super Cup match, Manchester United seems to be not as terrible as Arsenal. I don't know why Arsenal always can't beat Manchester United in the league."

Sun Haidao: "That's because in the Super Cup, Ferguson never cared so much about irrelevant games. In the semi-finals, you will see a completely different Red Devils. If you are careless, the result will be very dangerous."

Li Huan smiled and said, "How dare we underestimate the defending champion. Ferguson is indeed capable of breaking the curse and killing Porto. You and them are mortal enemies. You have fought against them for many years. Do you know where their weaknesses are?"

Sun Hai laughed, and said, "No wonder you came here as soon as we made an appointment. So you came to ask me to take out Manchester United's old background."

Li Huan said with a smile: "Brother Hai, I came here on a risk. When the tabloid reporters saw me going out without a bodyguard, they would definitely say that I came to meet Knightley."

Sun Hai laughed, and said, "How can we Chinese find you a different kind of person. There are so many gossips. Is there any relationship between you and Knightley?"

Li Huan smiled wryly, and said: "There is a fart relationship. I have nothing to do with Alizee, but we have met twice and talked a few times."

Sun Haidao: This is the helplessness of celebrities. Everyone hopes to use your light to become famous. You see, even Knightley has not come out to refute rumors. Is it because you think you can make her famous even more. "

Li Huan said: "Britain's media is much scarier than Germany's. There are very few such unreliable scandals in Germany."

"England, England." Sun Hai murmured, shaking his head with a strange expression.

Li Huan saw it now, and said, "Brother Hai, what's the matter, I have something on my mind."

Sun Haidao: "It's nothing. It's time to go back. After all, we have to go back. Ye Luo returns to his roots."

Li Huan was taken aback and said: "Brother Hai, you are only so old, Ye Luo has returned to his roots, do you really want to go back?"

Sun Hai sighed and said, "I'm 32 years old, I'm old, shouldn't I go back? The club has talked with me, and I may leave after the end of this season."

"Where are you going? Brother Hai."

"Not necessarily. I've wanted to go back a long time ago. I don't have many friends here, and I'm usually lonely. It's better to stay at home. But now when I think about leaving, I feel reluctant to leave." Sun Hai sighed again. "Huanzi, will you return to China in the future? I guess you don't need to go back?"

Li Huan shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about it yet, I'll think about it when I get to Brother Hai's age."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit depressed, Sun Hai couldn't help but slapped himself, and said, "Look at me, I said such disappointing things. Today is for your congratulations. I'll punish myself with a drink."

Li Huan laughed, and had a drink with Sun Hai, and said, "Self-punishment is useless, Brother Hai, haven't you told me about your experience playing against Manchester United?"

Sun Hai suddenly said, "Look at me, I've been distracted recently. In fact, Manchester United also has a lot of weaknesses. You should also understand a little bit during the Super Cup."

Li Huan nodded and said, "Well, their tempers are very irritable and a bit devilish."

Sun Haidao: "Yes, this is one of their weaknesses. If you irritate them, Rooney, Ronaldo, and Scholes will do something outrageous. Besides, Vidic's The turns are very slow, you have to hit them behind with long passes and through balls, the goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar looks good, but he is not reliable, he is good at intercepting crosses, but his saves are average, and he is not good at opening his feet level; Evra has a loophole in the left gate, he has a strong assist ability, but he can't come back easily, although he has speed, but once the opponent makes a diagonal pass, he can't handle a strong opponent; and Hargreaves After a serious injury, Manchester United's midfielder lacks a strong midfielder; at the same time, if they press forward like Liverpool and force Manchester United's central defender to rush the ball, Manchester United's offensive rhythm is easily disrupted. Once forced to pass a long pass, Manchester United's striker header Suffer."

Li Huan said happily: "These are all from Brother Hai's experience. It seems that this meal was not in vain."

Sun Hai smiled and said: "Actually, any team has weaknesses. I dare say that Manchester United has five major shortcomings, and someone can list Hoffenheim's top 5 shortcomings. After all, it depends on the game. If you can't force It's useless to find out the opponent's flaws and weaknesses. Hehe, but I hope you can help me teach them, Manchester United has suppressed us for many years."

Li Huan said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely meet Ronaldo well."

Sun Haidao: "C Ronaldo, yes, you have to be careful of his flops. Diving Luo is not called for nothing."

Li Huan said: "I know, let him jump on the ground this time."

After drinking for three rounds, Sun Hai suddenly said: "Huanzi, it's already here, have you thought about where to go next season?"

Li Huan pondered for a while, and said: "Not yet, let's see the results of the Champions League. If you win the championship, you will leave. If you don't win it, you will stay for another year."

Sun Haidao: "Well, the boss of Hoffenheim is really kind to you. I am sorry for them to leave after winning the Champions League. But if you are going to leave, I think our Manchester City is really good, rich and ambitious. Let's Isn’t it all about money and championships?”

Li Huan was silent for a long time before saying: "Let me think about it again, I haven't thought about it yet."

Sun Hai knew that Li Huan was a man of his own mind, so he no longer persuaded him to join Manchester City, but only persuaded Li Huan to drink.
