Sorry for the late update!

-------

The UEFA Champions League is a stage that mainstream European media will pay attention to.

When the results of the draw for Group H of the UEFA Champions League group stage came out, everyone believed that AC Milan and Ajax would join hands to advance to the top 16.

AC Milan, the defending champion.

Ajax, last season's quarterfinals.

What is Bruges?

What about Celta?

This is one of the groups considered the least suspenseful.

However, two rounds were over.

Outside observers were dumbfounded.

The defending champion AC Milan only scored 1 point.

Ajax has 1 win, 1 loss and 3 points.

Brugge won both games, 6 points!

Celta is the same as AC Milan with 1 point.

Ajax won Celta and scored 3 points.

However, the current situation and the originally expected situation have undergone earth-shaking changes!

The ideal situation that people expect is: before the third round starts, AC Milan and Ajax will score at least 4 points or 6 points on Bruges and Celta Vigo!

Then the two teams met and competed for the first place in the group.

Celta Vigo and Brugge will fight each other twice, maybe they will consume each other, and then in the fifth and sixth rounds, AC Milan and Ajax must still occupy the initiative, and it will not be a big surprise to advance to the knockout round .

But now, the situation has completely changed!

AC Milan, with only 1 point, is bound to do its best in the third and fourth rounds of the two-round confrontation with Ajax, revealing bloody minions, and frantically tearing up Ajax to avoid the defending champion being defeated in the group stage. The tragic fate of elimination!

You must know that AC Milan is 5 points behind Bruges and 2 points behind Ajax. Focusing on reality, at least they must defeat Ajax. Prepare for a strong battle to avoid No.16 in other groups, then AC Milan will compete for the first place in the group with 1 points behind the top of the list and four games left!

Due to the influence of the general situation, Ajax's victory has received very little attention.

The focus of the outside media is all about the prospects for the third and fourth rounds.

Ajax will face the defending champion AC Milan who can no longer have any reservations!

The European media focused on the subversive progress of the UEFA Champions League Group H, while the Chinese media lamented that Qin Xiong sat on the bench for 90 minutes.

However, at the very least, Qin Xiong still appeared in the live broadcast for a few seconds. Even if he was a substitute, even if he did not appear on the stage, it still excited many fans, which means that some Chinese players have come to the edge of the Champions League stage.

Qin Xiong's mentality was stable and he was not affected in the slightest.

He is a substitute in the first team, a substitute, which does not mean that he will appear in every game.

He also understands coach Koeman's approach. It is no exaggeration to say that playing Celta is a life-and-death battle in the Champions League. It is extremely risky to use him rashly. After all, this is not the Eredivisie league. Even if the gamble fails, there is still a way out. Represents destruction.

Especially thinking about a month ago, he was only in the youth team, and Qin Xiong never thought that others had to give him anything, and he had to fight for everything by himself.

He still trains hard and earnestly, moving forward with the most professional attitude.

Perhaps, it was his calm performance that made coach Koeman's favor for him soar.

After experiencing the last round of Eredivisie as a substitute, in the seventh round of Eredivisie, Ajax was a guest in Groningen. Qin Xiong was included in the starting lineup by Koeman!

On this day, the sky was gloomy, but Qin Xiong was full of interest. He took the ticket given to him by Van Gaal and went back to Wardle Street at noon, and gave the ticket to Freddie. Friends also met, so Qin Xiong asked Freddie to call and ask those friends if they were interested in watching the game. If so, they could go together. Tickets are definitely enough.

Probably because Groningen Football Club’s home attendance rate is not high, and Ajax got rich tickets. Van Gaal also told Qin Xiong that as long as he can start in the future, he can directly ask the team management and administrators for the ball. Tickets, ask for them openly, don't be shy!

The minimum guarantee for home games is three, and it depends on the situation for away games, but there are definitely no tickets for European games.

The gloomy sky could not reduce Qin Xiong's desire to fight.

I came with the team to the city of Groningen in the northeast, and went to their home stadium to warm up before the game. The wind speed was a bit strong, but Qin Xiong was as focused and serious as ever regardless of these.

Before the game, Koeman deliberately emphasized the importance of control and the reasonable distribution of physical fitness during the game.

This gives Qin Xiong higher requirements. He is the midfield organizer and the rhythm controller.

The pre-match coach's arrangements were over, and Qin Xiong stood with his teammates in the player tunnel with his head held high, waiting to play.

Because after this league is over, it will enter the FIFA match day in October, so Koeman wants to win this league and let most of the players who played in the Champions League three days ago continue to start!

The player Qin Xiong replaced was Sikora. The winger was fast. A few days ago, he shuttled up and down the sidewalk in the Champions League, which consumed a lot of energy.

Today, Koeman also wants to see what effect it will have to push Van der Vaart back to the front line.

Qin Xiong's friends also came to Groningen to watch the game. In the afternoon game, they sat in the stands with raincoats with them. Even Georgia came here together under the intensive care of De Geus and others.

They are looking forward to Qin Xiong's appearance as the starter!

This means that he has taken another step forward in Ajax!

Qin Xiong himself knows this very well. In today's game, he must play at his best and try his best to perform well. Maybe this will be an opportunity for him to "usurp the throne"!

With an extremely high fighting spirit, Qin Xiong strode into the stadium in Groningen with his teammates.

The cool wind blew by, and Qin Xiong was full of energy.

However, when he stepped into the sideline of the field with one foot, he suddenly froze in place as if he had been cast with a holding spell.

patter

The face was slapped by the cold liquid, and the water droplets slid down the cheeks.

Slap, slap, slap...

Qin Xiong looked up at the sky in astonishment.

The gloomy sky was covered with dark clouds. In this afternoon, the sun was blocked out and the intensity of the sun was weakened. Under the illumination of the stadium lights, fine raindrops fell from the sky and fluttered with the wind.

Qin Xiong stretched out his hand, with the palm facing up, and stared down at the palm, as if he was trying to determine what was falling in the palm!

He is like a person who has never seen rain, who is unfamiliar with raindrops, surprised, stunned!

Of course he had seen rain.

However, in his memory.

He has never played in the rain!

On the road of growth, physical health always comes first.

For athletes, the common cold is the most taboo disease for athletes!

The worst curse in football is to expect someone you don't like to get the flu!

Ordinary people may think this is too exaggerated, and when they see such news, they will think that a certain player who issued a vicious curse is too naive.

Can't wait for your "enemy" to get the flu?

Please, are you a primary school student?

What's so scary about a cold and fever?

At most, it is just a few days of rest, and maybe he can recover without medicine.

However, what football players fear most is the flu.

Players who catch a cold must first be quarantined by the club to avoid infection.

Secondly, a cold has an incubation period, so if you do strenuous exercise without realizing it, then a small cold may cause more serious injuries!

Knowing how serious a cold is to the health of athletes, Qin Xiong has never played football on a rainy day!

From the very beginning, he listened to the doctor's advice, avoided colds and fevers, and put health first, so Qin Xiong felt that all this was correct. Later, in the process of growing up, he didn't think about this issue any more. Even if it rained, Instead of playing football outdoors, he can also do training indoors. He is not doing nothing, so he doesn't care.

But today, at this moment, he realized that in his past training and growth process, he was missing an important training in a specific environment.

That is the rain fight!

Football games, although rain games are not common, but they definitely exist!

The impact of the rain battle was something Qin Xiong had never experienced before.

Today, he is going to embark on an unfamiliar battlefield and compete in an unprepared competition environment!

The coach and teammates were confused by Qin Xiong's strange reaction, thinking that he was doing weird oriental cultural rituals.

Qin Xiong put down his right hand, clenched his fist, and his will to fight remained undiminished. He took a deep breath, still held his head up, his eyes were firm, and walked into the arena where the wind and rain were getting stronger and stronger.
