Heroes of the Restricted Zone

Chapter 1642
No one knew what Stramaccioni's little thoughts and calculations were.

They will not care about the life and death of Inter Milan. For them, it is a good thing that a team as powerful as Inter Milan unexpectedly lost to Liverpool.Because they lost another strong enemy on the way to win the championship.

As for Chen Yingxiong's hat-trick in this game, so what?

That is his own glory and achievement, which has nothing to do with Liverpool.Because he wants to be the top scorer in the Champions League.

And he doesn't seem to be sure whether Liverpool can reach the final, so he has to score as many goals as possible in the first few games.

Liverpool is still Chen Yingxiong's team alone, and the others are not worth mentioning at all.Carlton Cole is also old, he is not Chen Yingxiong, he can play until he is 40 years old.

If Chen Yingxiong is not in good condition, Liverpool's performance will be greatly reduced.

And Chen Yingxiong is 40 years old, how long can he maintain such a vigorous state?
He was in really good form in the first game, completing a hat-trick.This must be because he had accumulated too much anger before and vented it in this game.

After this game, he will soon be unsustainable.

After all, he is old, and as the schedule becomes more and more intensive, it is doubtful that he can perform decently when he is physically exhausted.

These people also noticed a detail.That is, in the Liverpool game, Chen Yingxiong No. was replaced in more than 70 minutes.

This is a very surprising change.

Chen Yingxiong had only played a league game before, and he was replaced midway through this game, which shows that his physical strength is not good.

Then the competition will be more intensive in the future. By then, will Chen Yingxiong's physical strength still be able to support it?
The answer is almost without doubt, everyone knows it.

So they are not afraid at all.

※ ※ ※

Before the next leg of the Champions League, there are still two league games.

Gerrard's Liverpool continued to implement the rotation, but Chen Yingxiong still started.

But he was replaced after only half of the game after starting.

Before he was substituted, Liverpool led by three goals in the first half.

Chen Yingxiong scored twice in the game.

But everyone can see what Gerrard's substitution means.This is to make Chen Yingxiong consume less physical strength, and even less.

This made those who felt that physical strength would affect Chen Yingxiong's state more determined in their minds.

In the eighth round of League No.20, Liverpool won another game, and Chen Yingxiong scored a goal in the game.

Since Chen Yingxiong came back, he has scored sixteen goals.

And Liverpool also won consecutive victories.

The points between them and the league's No. 4 Arsenal have gradually shrunk to six points, and the league ranking has risen to No.[-].Already qualified for the Champions League.

Seeing Liverpool today is really hard to believe that this team was once hovering on the edge of the relegation zone.

But everyone also noticed a phenomenon, that is, Chen Yingxiong's goals began to decrease.

When he first came back, he scored ten goals in three games.

In the last few rounds of the league, he has not scored many goals.

In the last five league rounds, he scored twice and only scored one goal in the other three games.Only scoring one goal in a game can be regarded as poor form for Chen Yingxiong.

You must know that before he scored two goals, three goals, and four goals.

In the competition for the top scorer in the league, Manchester United's Nacho has now scored 27 goals.

Eleven goals ahead of Chen Yingxiong.

This is the season with the most goals in Nacho's career.Under Chen Yingxiong's pursuit, his small universe also exploded.

Chen Yingxiong's goal speed slowed down, and his opponent broke out in a small universe.Maybe the top scorer in the league this season may not be Chen Yingxiong.

Those opponents could be considered to have found a life-saving straw, and they all announced that Chen Yingxiong had relied on that breath after his comeback to the present. Now that the breath has been vented, his performance has naturally begun to deteriorate from one game to the next.

This is true in the league and certainly more so in the Champions League.

But within Liverpool fans, the minority is no longer likely to revive.

They are the people who know Chen Yingxiong best. After some twists and turns, they are also the people who trust Chen Yingxiong the most.

Fewer goals in five games?

Scored twice in two games and scored a goal in each of the three games. That's seven goals.An average of more than one score per game, is this still in a bad state?
The media are completely talking nonsense with their eyes open!They are jealous!They simply ignore the age of the hero. A 40-year-old guy can still score seven goals in five games. No matter where he puts it, it should not be considered a problem with his state.

Therefore, the Liverpool fan camp has a common hatred for those media who tell lies.

※ ※ ※

Chen Yingxiong did not respond to those voices in the media.

He wasn't worried at all about the fact that he was still eleven goals behind Nacho.

There are still ten rounds left in the league. According to his scoring rate, he is very confident of surpassing Nacho.

His fewer goals are not because his form has declined, but because he has played less time.Although he started the last two league games, he only played [-] minutes.

This is to set aside more energy in the Champions League.

Now his physical fitness is indeed not good, but it has little to do with age.As I said before, the 40-year-old Chen Yingxiong's physical fitness has declined compared with his own before. Compared with other people, his physical fitness is still good.

The reason for his poor physical fitness this season is that he hadn't played for nine months before. Because of the lack of regular games to exercise and accumulate, his physical reserves have problems.

The key is that the rhythm is not found.

He believed that if he could start playing from the first game of the league, he would not have to take such a rest until now.

In the second round of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, Chen Yingxiong played the whole game.

At the Meazza Stadium, Liverpool led by Chen Yingxiong drew with Inter Milan with a score of 2:2.

The reason for the draw is that Gerrard has rotated half of the main players in this game.

Chen Yingxiong scored the team's two goals in the game, increasing his goals in the Champions League to five, and his ranking in the Champions League scorer list jumped from ten to fifth.

Although they did not beat Inter Milan in the away game, Liverpool still eliminated their opponents with a score of 6:2 and advanced to the quarterfinals.

And Stella Maggioni is very satisfied with the team's performance.Although there was no miracle of reversal, but what the team showed in the second round made him very happy. He saw the hope of this team's comeback next season.

Of course, out of his dark little thoughts, he duplicity expressed his regret at the post-match press conference that he couldn't complete the comeback.He believes that his team is stronger, and it stands to reason that it should be able to advance.But the team's performance of being proud and underestimating the enemy in the first round has sown bitter fruit... He brought up the old story again, hoping that others will think that Liverpool's strength is not as strong as Inter Milan. , can still defeat them.

But actually?
Stella Maggioni confirmed one thing through this second round of the game, that is, even if those giants do not underestimate their enemies, they will lose to Liverpool!

Liverpool, which has rotated half of the main players, can still draw with Inter Milan, which has all the main players in the away game. This shows that Liverpool is not just relying on a hero Chen.You must know that the morale of this Inter Milan team is actually very high.Because he told the players before the game that even if they lose this season's Champions League, they must create a bright future for the future.Therefore, Inter Milan, who is ashamed and brave, played very seriously and desperately.

Unexpectedly, Liverpool were able to draw them, which shows their overall strength.

Stella Marjoni is now looking forward to the hellish expressions of those giants after meeting Liverpool.

※ ※ ※

Reaching the quarter-finals was hardly cause for celebration for Liverpool.

Because even in the six seasons when Liverpool did not win the championship, they only failed to advance to the quarterfinals twice.

With their strength, they are frequent visitors to the quarterfinals, which is quite normal.

So after the game in Italy, Liverpool returned to England in a low-key manner and continued training.

No one is boasting about their accomplishments.

Liverpool's players are very clear about their mission this season, they want to win the championship on both fronts.But others don't know it, which makes them feel a sense of pride, and they are especially motivated when they think of the surprised eyes of the whole world when they do it.

This is a kind of pride of "you all look down on us, then wait to be slapped in the face by us".

After all eight top eight teams were released, UEFA conducted a group draw.

Liverpool was drawn with Manchester United, and the England national derby will be staged in the Champions League.

This is also a direct dialogue between Chen Yingxiong and Nacho, the two top scorers of their respective teams.

Although Nacho leads Chen Yingxiong by eleven goals in the Premier League, he can't lead by so many goals in the Champions League. He only scored six goals in the Champions League this season, only one goal ahead of Chen Yingxiong.

Just above Chen Yingxiong, is the object who will be raped by Chen Yingxiong.

In the Premier League, Nacho is Chen Yingxiong's ultimate target to beat.In the Champions League, he became Chen Yingxiong's short-term goal.

Liverpool and Manchester United don't meet often in the Champions League. After Chen Yingxiong's transfer, not counting this time, the two teams have only met twice in the Champions League, once in the quarter-finals like this time Finals, once in the semi-finals.

But for Manchester United, these two encounters were tragedies.Because that time happened to be when Liverpool was in full swing, they not only suppressed Manchester United in the domestic league, but also brutally suppressed Manchester United's rebellion in these two encounters in the Champions League.

Manchester United did not have the strength to fight back at all, and were eliminated by Liverpool cleanly on both occasions.

In the six seasons when Liverpool no longer continued to monopolize the Champions League, Manchester United also won the Champions League once, fully reflecting their rich heritage.

This meeting between the two teams is full of expectations.

And the contest between Chen Yingxiong and Nacho, two excellent shooters, one old and one young, is also very interesting.
