Chapter 1026 The only person who can rival Messi

The tone of the game was set after Rongguang scored three goals in two minutes and 48 seconds.

The rest of the game, as Rongguang expected, became meaningless garbage time.

Burnley's players have no fighting spirit and mind in the game, and Manchester City's players are also happy and relaxed. They play as they please. Sometimes if the opportunity is not very good, they will not compete with Burnley.

But even so, Manchester City's goals did not completely stop.

Just like inertia, the faster a car goes, the greater the inertia, and the harder it is to brake.

Even if Manchester City no longer intends to chase Burnley, even if the game enters garbage time, the inertia caused by Rongguang's three goals in less than 3 minutes is still great.

No.20 minutes, Sturridge received a cross from Martin Petrov, grabbed a point in the middle, and scored the fourth goal of the game for Manchester City.

Then in the No.404 minute, 1 minute before the end of the first half, Martin Petrov scored a goal himself. This was Manchester City's fifth goal in the game.If there is no glorious hat-trick, he can definitely be elected the best player of the game.

But now... he can only give up the best honor to Rong Guang.

I believe he will definitely not have any opinions...

At the end of the first half, the TV broadcast showed the latest score of the game so far. 0:5, Manchester City leads Burnley with five goals in the away game.

Seeing this scene, John Mortensen couldn't help complaining: "If the audience friends see this score, don't think it is the score of the whole game. In fact, it is only the end of the first half! There are still 45 minutes in the game! Poor Burnley..."

After the start of the second half, even with a 15-minute intermission, the inertia has not completely disappeared, so at 8 minutes, central defender Kompany scored the sixth goal for Manchester City with his head from a corner kick.

The inertia completely disappeared. In the subsequent games, Manchester City did not score again. It is obvious that everyone's thoughts are on the Champions League game in the middle of next week.

On the contrary, Burnley seemed to feel that it was too ugly to be shaved by their opponents at their home court.

So they scored a goal in the No.70 two minutes from Stephen Fletcher, a face-saving goal.

But at that time, Manchester City no longer cared about one or two conceded goals.

In the end, Manchester City defeated Burnley 6:1 in the away game, and they still lead Chelsea by four points with five rounds left in the league.

Everyone thought that when Manchester City drew Barcelona in the draw, their performance in the league would definitely be affected.

As a result, before the game against Barcelona, ​​Manchester City's performance was normal.

Well, everyone felt at this time that after the match between Manchester City and Barcelona, ​​there must be problems.

The results of it?
Manchester City beat Barcelona 3:1, and then played Burnley 6:1 away in the league.

This kind of behavior can't be seen as abnormal...

Now if Chelsea want to win the title, the only last hope lies in the second leg of Manchester City and Barcelona.

If City lose to Barcelona in the second leg and are eliminated from the Champions League, it may affect their form in the league.

Especially when they won the first round 3:1 and were eliminated in the second round...

After the game against Burnley, Benitez did not allow the players to rest. It is normal to rest for at least half a day after winning the game, but this time, on the morning of the second day after the game, Benitez assembled the team.

They are off to Barcelona to prepare for the second leg.

Anyway, the main players were fully rested in yesterday's game. Although Rong Guang did not rest, this person does not need to rest.

The whole team set off from Manchester and flew to Barcelona.

For this game, Mansur, the owner behind the Manchester club and Rongguang's number one fanatic, specially provided his own private jet, so that the players of Manchester City can be more comfortable during the journey, so that they can also maintain a better state during the away game.

Manchester City's excellent performance against Barcelona in the first round made Mansour very happy. In order to allow Manchester City to eliminate the defending champion, Mansour also spared no expense... No, that's not right. For other clubs, doing so may be really "spite no expense", but for Manchester City, it is just a matter of effort...

With Mansour's financial resources, there are more than one private jets, and it's nothing special to use one of them as a special plane for Manchester City.

For Mansour, it was a drop in the bucket.

After the Manchester City team arrived in Barcelona, ​​they stayed in a local five-star hotel and borrowed the Spaniard's training base for training.

As Barcelona's rival in the same city, the Spaniard is naturally happy to lend his training base to Barcelona's opponents to let them train and beat Barcelona in the Champions League.

Whenever there are two teams in a city, this is basically the case.

Manchester City has also lent the training base to other teams to prepare for the Champions League match against Manchester United, and Manchester United also lent the training ground to Manchester City's opponents.It's just that Manchester City used to play more times than Manchester United, because Manchester United participated in the Champions League every year in the past, and Manchester City didn't have such opportunities. Of course, they would often loan out the training base, but Manchester United didn't need it.

The Spaniard started at an absolute disadvantage in Barcelona, ​​whether it is the number of fans or strength.

However, their training base is still good, with all the necessary facilities, and they are not outdated.

Manchester City trained here, and it also attracted many Spaniard fans to watch.

They mainly come to see the glory.

Barcelona has Messi, but they are fans of the Spaniard, so it is naturally impossible to cheer for Messi.

These people chose to cheer for the glory.

Rong Guang is also a star who is not inferior to Messi at all.

So Rong Guang was able to be surrounded by many fans wearing Espanyol jerseys for autographs every day during training.

When interviewed by reporters, some Spaniard players joked that they were very jealous of Rongguang, because when Rongguang came, they snatched away their fans.

Of course, this was all a joke, because there were even Spaniard players who went to take a photo with Rong Guang, and then they posted the photo of themselves and Rong Guang on their social networks, and someone added the text: "This is the most powerful person in football today."

The admiration and worship of glory can be seen.

Of course, the Spanish media can also have a close contact with Rongguang, and find out why Rongguang is so powerful...

Then they discovered that Rongguang's training was astonishingly hard—he was the first to start training every day, and the last to finish training. Except for the necessary rest time, he never stopped in the training base.

Such a training attitude is completely unimaginable to the sloppy Spaniards-how can a person work so hard?

And...with Rongguang's strength and status, why did he train so hard?
There is really no reason for this...

Many people think that if they have such a status as Rongguang, they just need to maintain their state, but does it require such a large amount of exercise to maintain their state?
The Spaniards were puzzled.

However, judging from the expressions of Manchester City players and coaches, they are completely used to it.

So in the past few days, the media in Spain, especially in Barcelona, ​​has been full of reports on Rongguang. Among them, Rongguang's hard training has become the focus of Barcelona's media reports.

Regarding Manchester City, the Barcelona media still have a sense of superiority. They feel that although we lost the away game, we still have a chance to comeback at home, and the hope is not small.

But for Rongguang, the Barcelona media has always appreciated it very much. When Rongguang was about to come to Barcelona, ​​the Barcelona media were quite excited, thinking that the trident composed of Rongguang, Ronaldinho and Messi is simply too wonderful.

Now, the Barcelona media also believe that only Rong Guang is the opponent who can fight Messi. They look down on Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo.

Because Cristiano Ronaldo's character is too jumpy, Glory is much more low-key, which is somewhat similar to Messi.

Since the Barcelona media appreciate Messi's character, they will naturally appreciate Rong Guang's character.

In addition, everyone knows that Rong Guang has a good relationship with Messi, and also has a good relationship with Iniesta, Xavi and others.

So no matter what, the media in Barcelona will not be black and glorious.

Even if Rongguang scored two goals for Barcelona in the last game, the Barcelona media can only praise Rongguang, thinking that Rongguang is an excellent opponent for Messi.

Even "the only opponent"-this is from the latest report of "World Sports Daily", which mainly refers to Rongguang.

Influenced by the media, among the Barcelona fans there are also glory admirers, and there are even fans wearing Barcelona jerseys who come to the Espanyol training base to watch the glory training.

"The only person who can compete with Messi?" Ibrahimovic put the "World Sports Daily" aside and snorted.

"Barcelona's media is really getting more and more shameless, and they are too flattering Messi when they say that." After humming, he said to his wife Helena who was sitting opposite him.

Helena smiled and said to Zlatan Ibrahimovic: "You should know that journalists are always like this." She understands the pressure on her husband now.

After losing in the first round, some media blamed her husband for the loss, thinking that Ibrahimovic was too independent in the game and did not cooperate with Messi. If he chose the few opportunities to shoot, if he finally passed the ball to Messi, Barcelona would not lose in the end.Some media even said that if Barcelona did not successfully defend the championship in the end, it must be Ibrahimovic's fault.

Helena couldn't accept this accusation from the media.She once spoke on social network media and attacked those media and people who hold this view.

"Some people are always used to impatiently looking for a responsible person after failure, as if the failure has nothing to do with them. But unfortunately, that can't change the result of their failure."

Helena and her husband are of one mind. If her husband can't stand this city and this team, then she can't stand it either.She is not afraid of offending people.

She believes that her husband, as a center forward, is born with the right to choose to shoot after getting the ball in the penalty area, otherwise Barcelona will not let him play, or let him play as a center forward.

Since he is allowed to play as a center, why is he not allowed to shoot himself?Why must football be passed to Messi?
She thought her husband had done absolutely nothing wrong.

"I'm not surrendering early, my dear. I will still go all out in the game the day after tomorrow. But I think these shameless media will find out how wrong they are." Ibrahimovic said with a curled lip.

Because of Messi, Ibrahimovic is now gradually inclined to glory emotionally.

If he had to choose someone he supported, then Ibrahimovic would choose Rongguang. He hoped that Rongguang would win more than he hoped that Messi would win.Because it is difficult for him to accept the ugly face of the Barcelona media kneeling and licking if Messi wins.

If before the last Champions League game, Ibrahimovic had some illusions about his performance in Barcelona this season, then after a night at the Manchester City Stadium, Ibrahimovic has no hope for his performance in Barcelona.

He intends to leave Barcelona and cannot wait.

Since Barcelona doesn't value themselves, go to a team that values ​​​​self.

For Ibrahimovic this is a normal decision.

He has even started to ask his agent Raiola to help him contact the next home.

Even if he is asked to return to Inter Milan, he will not refuse.
