Chapter 486 Chapter [122] - Champions League Preview - [Today's first update]

See also lore!

Xu Zhou's goal at the last moment of the game caused the Arsenal fans to resent at home. In the end, Manchester United defeated their opponents [-]:[-].

The most valuable player of this game still belongs to Xu Zhou. Compared with the disappointment and loneliness of the Arsenal players after the game, Xu Zhou is very refreshing.However, he still did not accept the reporter's interview, which made the reporters see how much Xu Zhou held grudges!

After defeating Arsenal, Manchester United extended their lead to 2 points, but they are still one point behind Chelsea, ranking No.[-] in the league.

These days Xu Zhou has been calling Avril Lavigne, and the other party also answers the phone, but it seems that he always seems to be making up for the call, which makes Xu Zhou very anxious.Originally, Xu Zhou wanted to go to Greece once, but the schedule was very important during this time period, so this plan was shelved!
Because of the divorce, Scarlett Johansson felt a lot more relaxed. She often came to Xu Zhou's place together with Keira Lightly, which made Xu Zhou's life not lonely.

After the game against Arsenal, Manchester United did not relax at all, because after all, Manchester United is still behind the top Chelsea. This season, Manchester United's goal is the Triple Crown [League Cup, League and Champions League]!
In the next two league games, Manchester United beat Portsmouth [-]-[-] at home and drew [-]-[-] away at Aston Villa, although there was a draw.But Manchester United's rival Chelsea did make a mistake. They defeated Arsenal [-]-[-] at home, but they lost [-]-[-] to Everton in the next away game.

This is gratifying, but now is not the time to celebrate, because the UEFA Champions League will start again in the middle of this week, and the 2009/2010 knockout round of the 1-8 UEFA Champions League has officially started!

Manchester United's opponent is the Italian giants AC Milan!In the UEFA Champions League knockout match against AC Milan, Manchester United will go first and then host. Therefore, Manchester United will fly to Milan, Italy in the middle of this week.

As early as before the game, this game was hyped up, and there were so many things to watch in this game.Before the game, England's "Sun" and Italy's "Gazzetta dello Sport" reported on the game in detail.

The two teams have met 4 times in the Champions League knockout round. Milan won all the final victories and eliminated Manchester United. The result of a total of 8 games is Milan 5 wins and 3 losses.Of course, this will also be a revenge trip for Manchester United! !
Whether this is Manchester United's revenge, or AC Milan's continued strength, we will wait and see!Of course, before that, we have to take a look at what else to watch in this game:

Aspect 1: Beckham returns to his former owner!
This game is not as hyped as Beckham's return to Old Trafford, but it will still be the focus of the game. Beckham may not start this time, because Pato has returned from injury. In the position of right midfielder, the Brazilian must be the first choice.

Since experiencing the "flying boot door" incident in 2003 and then angrily transferred to Real Madrid, this is the first time that Beckham, as Manchester United's opponent, has met his former club on the stage of the Champions League.However, there are still big doubts about whether the former England captain will be sent by Leonardo tomorrow morning-in the two recent AC Milan games, Beckham has only had a record of coming off the bench once.However, considering that Mancini Jr., who was on loan from Inter Milan at the end of January, has lost the qualification to represent his new club in the UEFA Champions League, Beckham still has a high chance of starting tomorrow morning.
Aspect 2: How Manchester United can make up for the absence of Giggs!
Veteran Ryan Giggs broke his right arm in the Chinese League last week and will be absent for four weeks after inspection. This is definitely the last thing Ferguson wants to hear. Giggs is Manchester United's assists this season. Don't even think about cooperating with teammates.

Aspect 3: Peak offensive and defensive battles!
The offense of both teams can be said to be the top in the world. Manchester United's Wayne Rooney is the most popular striker now, and Manchester United also has such a perverted super player as Xu Zhou.And Milan's Pato and Ronaldinho are also world-class stars. Relatively speaking, the defenses of the two teams are quite different.Manchester United's Ferdinand hasn't played for half a month, Vidic is not in a good state now, right back Rafael looks immature, and Milan's Thiago Silva was injured in the league last week and this round is doubtful.

Injuries:

Manchester United Injuries: Hargreaves (midfielder), Giggs (midfielder), O'Shea (backup) Suspected injury: Nemanja Vidic (backup).

Milan Injuries: Oyewu (back), Zambrotta (back) Suspected injuries: Mancini (midfielder), Thiago Silva (back), Borriello (forward).

The last time the two teams met in the UEFA Champions League was in the semi-finals of 2007. At that time, relying on Kaka's perfect personal performance, AC Milan finally eliminated Manchester United, which was highly expected to win the championship, with a total score of 5-3, and then completed its revenge against Liverpool in the final.However, last summer Kaka took off the shirt of the Rossoneri and became a new member of the "Galaxy". The current AC Milan belongs to Pato and Ronaldinho.

Although Milan has only won 5 victory in the last 1 games in various competitions, the temperament shown by this team that has won 7 Champions League trophies in history cannot be underestimated.In the group stage, AC Milan only lost 6 game in 1 games with Real Madrid, Marseille and FC Zurich, and the difficulty of this group is much higher than that of Manchester United's Group B (Besiktas, CSKA and Wolfsburg).

Moreover, Milan's state has improved recently. In the last round of the league, AC Milan defeated Wuji Udinese [-]:[-].

2010年2月13日，意甲第24轮开始首场角逐，AC米兰主场3比2击败乌迪内斯，取得近5场正式比赛首胜。积分回到次席~！！！

In the first half, Ronaldinho assisted twice, Huntelaar opened the scoring, Pato, who came off the bench, scored his first goal in three months, Udinese striker Flores scored one point, Mancini Jr. and Thiago Silva were injured.In the second half, after Ronaldinho's free kick was refracted, Huntelaar scored twice, and Di Natale scored the 3th goal of the season, continuing to top the scorer list.

Due to the advance of the UEFA Champions League, Milan has not won in the last 3 rounds. They lost 1-4 at home in the quarter-finals of the Coppa Italia. It was Udinese who eliminated them. However, Milan beat their opponents 0-1 in San Siro last season.Borriello, Seedorf, Zambrotta and Antonini were absent, but Nesta finally came back. Mancini started 5 consecutive rounds, forming a trident with Huntelaar and Ronaldinho.Udinese won their first victory after De Biasi took office, but Domizzi, Feronetti, big brother Stini, Basta and Obodo were all unable to play.

From the point of view of status, Manchester United still continued the good momentum of dominating the Premier League in the previous three years. This season, it was once favored to catch up with Chelsea.However, Milan is not in the state at the beginning of the season, and has accumulated confidence through the Champions League against Real Madrid.Lai Shuai and the signature star Ronaldinho are already getting better.

In the Ancelotti era, Milan was the nemesis of Manchester United, with 3 wins and 1 loss in two knockout rounds, occupying the [absolute] upper hand. In 07, Manchester United waited for 5 years to re-enter the semi-finals, but was blocked by Milan, and San Siro was defeated by three eggs, resulting in the fourth time in 4 years that they were sniped in the semi-finals.

In the post-An Pang and Kaka era, Milan is not what it used to be, but in Jiatu's words: "Milan will change when they hear the theme song of the Champions League".At San Siro, Manchester United have lost 4 goals in the past two times and failed to score a goal.

Very different in terms of style.Manchester United never loses against powerful teams. After several years of failure, Foye has developed a way to restrain Magic Bird, but against technical teams, it is often ugly and difficult.Against Porto last season, if it weren't for Ronaldinho's lucky kick in the world wave, would they still be undefeated?Lost to Barcelona in the final, and only the first 10 minutes can be seen

In the 0-3 two years ago, Manchester United did not have a decent offense in the game, and only had two dangerous shots.In the first half of Milan, Mu had difficulty even in possession of the ball, lacked constructive organization, mechanical inversions and untargeted running and response, resulting in countless passing errors during the transition from offense to defense.Manchester United is good at playing on the ground, but compared with Milan, which has the best cooperation in Serie A and combines long and short balls, it does not have the upper hand at all.

However, the two teams in this game are not what they used to be, so we don't know what the game will be like! !
