ball at foot

Although I have been looking forward to having good luck, such luck still surprised Zhao Yaning.

"There is only one team that can draw a team outside the Premier League, and we got it? It's good luck..."

The Champions League draw is quite interesting this year.Liverpool drew Chelsea-their old enemies, it would be a strange thing not to be arranged together by UEFA.On the other hand, Arsenal has drawn Lyon-Wenger's match against the French team is also a spectacle.But this time, Manchester United was lucky, drawing Schalke 04. Manchester United, the most promising player in the quarter-finals, played the least promising Schalke 04. The game has not yet started. What is the result? Can also guess.

"If the opponent is Inter Milan, it shouldn't be difficult..."

Although it is said that the current Inter Milan is also the ruler of Serie A, and they only lost one game last season, speaking of dominance, it is stronger than several other giants in the league.However, Zhao Yaning always felt in his heart that Juventus is the boss of Italy, followed by Milan. Compared with these two teams, Inter Milan is still much weaker. [

But this is just a thought.Zhao Yaning also understands that no one’s hands may be clean if he can secure his position as the boss in a league.Whether it's Mann's contact, the Holy League, or the battle for the national prefix of Barcelona and Real Madrid, no one is very clean, but if you want to really secure your position, you still have to rely on your strength.From this point of view, although Inter Milan is relying on the sluggish status of Juventus and Milan behind the phone door, they can overwhelm Roma and become the boss. Their strength cannot be ignored.Although their player level is a level lower than Real Madrid's, but when it comes to their strength, they are not necessarily worse.It's just that they are indeed a bit worse than the Premier League teams, so Zhao Yaning also underestimated them.

But if you think about it, this is really a pretty good opponent: the reputation is big enough to keep the players from being distracted and not playing well.But the strength is not strong enough, it is impossible for the players to feel desperate when they hear the name.This kind of team that may lose if you don't play well, but you can beat it with hard work, is now perfect for Real Madrid. Meeting them is better than meeting anyone else.

"Inter Milan is a giant team, we can't take it lightly. Don't always think that their players are all things that we don't like, just look down on them. After all, they still have strength." Changing clothes In the room, Raul was also admonishing everyone.

In Inter Milan, Samuel and Cambiasso were both players who were eliminated in Real Madrid that year.They couldn't adapt to Real Madrid and chose to go to Serie A.Another player, Ibrahimovic, wanted to join Real Madrid when Juventus was relegated in 06.But Real Madrid didn't like him at the time, and his agent was too greedy, so the deal didn't work out.Therefore, when Raul talked about Inter Milan, his words were not very respectful.

However, he also understands that different leagues result in different players.Samuel's inability to play in La Liga is a matter of style of play, but in Serie A, he is the best defender.Cambiasso had no chance in Real Madrid. That was when Real Madrid used Guti and Beckham's wonderful midfielder combination. After arriving at Inter Milan, Inter Milan spent a season looking for his status and confidence. Now he It's not what it used to be.It's true that the opponent is worse than Real Madrid, but it's bad if you think you must win.

However, the game was not difficult after all. A few people talked and laughed, and Guti quickly summed up the game, "Speaking of it, it won't be too bad. Schalke 04 relies on a The talented goalkeeper has been able to advance to the quarter-finals. No matter how talented he is, can he still be comparable to our Ikar? No matter how bad we are, we can play well with Ikar. Moreover, we have so many big names Stars, you can’t lose to them, right?”

These words just made Cassie smile and didn't say much.

Cassie is indeed a very lucky person. The trajectory of his fortune can be said to be legendary: in 2002, he just became the substitute goalkeeper of Real Madrid. However, in the Champions League final, Cesar, the substitute goalkeeper of Real Madrid, was injured. , allowing him to play in the game-three key saves made him famous all over the world.Then, in the World Cup, Canizares, who was supposed to be the main goalkeeper, stepped on a perfume bottle while taking a shower and was injured. At the age of 20, he became the main goalkeeper just after entering the national team.

Then, during Real Madrid's Galaxy Battleship period, the frontcourt was brilliant, but the backcourt was as hopeless as a black hole.Cruyff, as the godfather of Barcelona, ​​was remembered by the whole world with some sour slogans, which made people quickly form an idea: Real Madrid plays with Ronnie in the front and Cassie in the back.And this kind of publicity has made his reputation continue to rise. He doesn't get many gold gloves, but he is one of the world's three great generals.

It wasn't until last season, after Capello came, that he dared to publicly reprimand him for his problematic goalkeeping habits.But this season, after Zhao Yaning came, he discovered his serious lack of positioning and defense when training free kicks.However, Cassie is lucky-a strict personality like Capello has reversed his "character" problem, and now, Zhao Yaning is helping him train defensive set-pieces. Such luck is not easy to find .

Strictly speaking, Casillas is not a goalkeeper with great talent: Casillas is not tall enough after all. He was 180 tall when he debuted, which is not bad among ordinary people, but he is considered a big man among players. But among goalkeepers, it's a problem.Although his height has gradually grown in the past two years, reaching 182m, he is still not very tall. Defense against high balls is a permanent pain point, and the defense of set balls is also affected by this.Generally speaking, top goalkeepers seem to be taller than Casillas. Buffon and Cech are tall goalkeepers. They don’t have such flaws and fatal shortcomings. It is impossible to deny that Casillas is not as talented as them. fact.However, in terms of strength, Zhao Yaning also believes that Casillas is already the top three in the world, and he can even compete for the first place: Cech has become unstable after his serious injury, and Buffon has also begun to appear now In terms of injuries, the first thing a goalkeeper pays attention to is stability. Without a stable goalkeeper, he cannot be regarded as a good goalkeeper. From this perspective, Casillas is already the number one in the world. .

If someone can advance to the quarter-finals of the Champions League with a good goalkeeper, then Real Madrid may also go one step further with Casillas.He is an extremely important part of Real Madrid, and can even be said to be the source of confidence, which is undeniable.

That being the case, then, what is there to be afraid of?In this game, Real Madrid is also full of confidence.

And immediately, in the league, Real Madrid's opponent is Sevilla.Although Sevilla can be regarded as a strong enemy, Real Madrid still mercilessly ran over them with an extremely violent 3-1.

During the game, Zhao Yaning continued the work he had not done in the first half of the season.He was in the corridor on the right where Alves was in charge, and he kept making raids. Alves was in charge of marking him, but it had no effect at all.If it is said that in the first half, Alves, who was still thinking about "plugging in", was successfully broken through by Zhao Yaning and scored the goal, but his own strength was not enough. In the second half, Alves faced Zhao Yaning’s defense. At that time, he had already chosen not to "plug" in, but to defend with all his strength, but he was still blown up by Zhao Yaning's defense, and scored a goal from his defensive area, which made Alves quite a bit. Some depressed.

"You know, you did this, but it made Sevilla very vengeful." After the game, Guti was full of praise for this, "This season, they are going to sell people to Barcelona. If you play once, the price will drop."

"Then I should go to Barcelona and ask for a sum of money?" Zhao Yaning smiled, "However, why would Barcelona think of buying him?"

"Barcelona's full-backs have never been very good. We can't always let Puyol play on the wing." Guti replied, "He is still the best choice. Barcelona will probably spend 3000 million for this."

"Why are there 3000 million defenders everywhere in La Liga... I didn't say you, Sergio, don't be so stingy. Barcelona should not have as much money as Real Madrid, right? This time, is it really going to fight?" [

"Laporta wants to participate in the elections in the Catalan region. He now hopes that Barcelona will achieve results. Anything that is owed will belong to the next "chairman". What Laporta has to do now is to Spend tomorrow's money to buy yourself a reputation." Raul said from the side, "Whether they cooperate with UNICEF or buy a large number of people, it is all related to this. It is said that the Catalan region may carry out A referendum decides whether to be independent. Laporta wants to become the capital of a country, and he wants to go crazy, and he doesn't want to miss the great opportunity to become the founder of a country. Under the temptation of such interests, he doesn't care about Barcelona's finances. .”

This made Zhao Yaning mourn for the next "Chairman" of Barcelona: Without Real Madrid's ability to absorb money, but spending money so crazily, how will they make money in the next term.

However, political reasons also made him sigh: Football has been disrupted for this reason, not once or twice.The most obvious example: In 02, FIFA "Chairman" Blatter had just taken office shortly after he took office. With his foothold unstable, he was jointly opposed by the Asian, European and South American Football Confederations. , the AFC's Chung Mong-joon turned against each other and helped Blatter stabilize his position. Then, in the 02 World Cup, South Korea won all the way to the semi-finals, until they met Germany, because Germany has more power in the more powerful UEFA. Big, Beckenbauer personally called to ask for a referee change, which stopped South Korea's victory.

In fact, many people don’t know about the follow-up of that incident: Chung Mong-joon announced before the World Cup that if South Korea enters the top four of the World Cup, he will run for president.At that time, everyone thought it was a foolish dream, but then the achievements in South Korea made him all of a sudden popular. It's just that he lost to Roh Moo-hyun in the party election, which prevented him from becoming president, otherwise, the impact of the matter would be even greater.

As the number one sport in the world, football can be related to the change of national leaders. This is the charm that other sports can't match.

Now Barcelona is in the same situation. Laporta wants to become the leader of the Catalonia region, and then lead the region to become independent, and become the founder of the country. What is the use of some loan money?The big deal is that the club goes bankrupt and sells. For a team like Barcelona, ​​even if the membership system is abolished, don't they still worry about not being able to find a rich person to take over?

"Besides, they have no choice but to buy people now. Otherwise, if there is another season with such results, then Laporta can just resign directly."

This season, Barcelona was eliminated in the top sixteen of the Champions League, and in the league, the gap is getting bigger and bigger.After the end of the Champions League, they completely fell into the rhythm of collapse. Now they have not won two rounds, not to mention the points compared with Real Madrid, even Villarreal surpassed them and ranked second.Rijkaard is about to leave get out of class, and now Barcelona has been forced into a precarious situation.

"Then, this season, our only problem is to win the championship a few rounds in advance." Regarding this, Zhao Yaning also smiled, "Then, let us wait and see how far we will go this season."
