What should I do if I exploded directly?

Chapter 419 Reaching the Top 16

In this regard, the home team fans can only swallow their anger.

It can also be seen that without Jia Yi, the Espanyol team is indeed not a strong team.

In front of a really strong team, they played very badly, and they could only defend ignorantly.

However, the plot sometimes performed by football is really not what ordinary people can imagine.

In the 24th minute, Ballack suddenly went forward after cutting Harvey's through ball, took a few big feet and long passes, and found the bison in front.

The Bison took the ball and cut directly into the middle. He followed up with a powerful long-range shot. The ball flew into the upper right corner like a cannonball. 1:0, the Espanyol team took the lead.

The Bison roared excitedly, tore off his jersey and remained on the ground, then ran to the sidelines to celebrate the goal.

The Huawei stadium also exploded quickly, and there were huge screams.

It is really hard to bear the excitement of scoring first in such a passive situation.

But Barcelona coach Mourinho's expression at this time is a bit exciting. He always thought that the game was under his control. Who knows that now he is blinded by the bison and Barcelona is behind.

Mourinho desperately hopes to beat Jia Yi's team. He still regrets that Jia Yi is not on the court today.

After coaching Barcelona, ​​he is also very confident in the strength of the team and believes that he will be able to succeed in Barcelona.

Who knows that the team's state is still not stable, and even today, when they have the upper hand, they were actually scored by the opponent.

Mourinho immediately went to the sidelines and held Harvey to teach him the opportunity face to face.

After the re-kick-off, Barcelona's short-pass offense played faster.

The Espanyol team stepped up their fouls, and Barcelona players were constantly knocked to the ground.

This brutal way is also a good way to deal with Barcelona.

Moreover, the place they chose to foul is also far away from the penalty area, and they do not give the opponent a good set kick.

On the sidelines, Mourinho kept complaining, but the referee ignored him at all. This referee seemed to be greatly influenced by the Premier League. He encouraged physical confrontation very much, and it was obviously impossible to play cards.

The fourth official saw Mourinho making a fuss and came over to warn him. Mourinho sat back cursing.

On the other side, Wenger is secretly having fun, which is to give back to others in his own way.

Mourinho liked to do this when he was at Chelsea, and now Wenger is using this method to deal with Barcelona, ​​completely inspired by Mourinho.

I didn't expect the effect to be so good now, so that Barcelona's offense was constantly interrupted, making it impossible to form a continuous offense.

Anyway, leading by one, the 1 points scored by 0:3 are still valid.

Jia Yi smiled when he saw this situation in front of the TV. Wenger is indeed a master tactician. Mourinho is also a master tactician, but now he is restrained by Wenger.

With Wenger's personality, it is still a bit difficult to play like this. In contrast, Wenger prefers to play artistic football.

However, the playing styles of the teams coached by the two teams are somewhat different from the coaching philosophy of the head coach. It would be more suitable for Wenger to coach Barcelona and Mourinho to coach the Espanyol.

In the subsequent games, Barcelona played very sadly, but the home team became more and more excited.

From beginning to end, Barcelona did not have any good chances.

Of course, the Espanyol team also received 5 yellow cards, and the referee couldn't stand it anymore, so he had no choice but to issue a card to warn the Espanyol team.

The final score was 1:0. With the Bison's goal, the Espanyol beat Barcelona at home and extended their lead to 9 points.

"It was an ugly win, the opponent was totally wrestling and the refs were letting it go, it's going to be harder for us to catch up, but we're not going to give up."

At the press conference after the game, Mourinho was very dissatisfied, and this guy often uttered wild words. This time, he will definitely be punished again.

Wenger said: "Winning is our main goal. The opponent is stronger than us, but in the end we won. This is football."

In the standings, the Espanyol remained unbeaten in 14 games with 11 wins, 3 draws and 36 points. At the same time, they led Barcelona by 9 points, ranking first in the standings.

In the games against Real Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia, they all won, which also made the Espanyol the favorite to win the championship.

And this kind of advantage can also allow Jia Yi to treat leisurely, without worrying at all.

Now it is Lao Guo who uses his medicinal moxibustion technique to digest the hormone bit by bit for Jia Yi, and then pulls it out of his body.

Let the body function and restore normal metabolism.

This process is indeed not to be rushed.

A week later, the Espanyol team was tied 3:3 away by Zaragoza, ending the previous three consecutive league victories.

The opponent played the ball very fiercely, just like the Espanyol team played against Barcelona last time.

It seems that this is also a group of guys who are very good at imitating.

The Espanyol took advantage of three set-piece opportunities and Drogba scored a hat-trick.

But the opponent's three goals are also very exciting.

After being tied by the opponent and only scoring 1 point, the Espanyol's lead returned to 7 points.

This kind of means giving the opponent a chance. Barcelona must be more energetic in chasing after him.

On December 12, the final round of the UEFA Champions League group stage ended.

The Espanyol played off the bench at home and lost 0:1 to Arsenal, which also ended the three-line unbeaten record since the season.

Arsenal ranked first in the group with a goal difference advantage, and the Espanyol team ranked second.

In other groups, Porto beat Liverpool to qualify for the first place in Group A, and Liverpool came second.

Chelsea and Schalke 04 qualified in Group B, and Real Madrid and Olympiacos in Group C. This is also a bit unexpected. Bremen and Lazio were eliminated by Olympiacos, and the Greek team also made a splash.

In Group D, AC Milan and the Celtics established their advantages early, and the two teams joined hands to qualify.

Group E is Barcelona and Lyon, which is not much suspense.

Manchester United and Roma qualified in Group F. Shevchenko returned to Dynamo Kiev. Although he scored 5 goals in the group stage, the overall strength of the team is far from the old team. Can go home.

Inter Milan and Slavia Prague in Group G are the top two in the group. It is a bit strange that the Czech team has reached the top 16.

Among the top 16, there are three seats in La Liga: Real Madrid, Barcelona and Espanyol.

Premier League Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool have all advanced, and the Premier League is still very strong, with four seats!
Serie A AC Milan, Roma and Inter Milan have reached the top 16, which is considered to have completed the task. Since the Calciopoli incident, the status of Serie A has plummeted. However, they can still advance in the Champions League, which proves that they are indeed still very capable.

The Ligue [-] Lyon team has saved the face of the Ligue [-] team and finally has a representative.

The Bundesliga is also the scene of the Schalke 04 team. Stuttgart and Bremen are both going home in groups. It is said that Bayern fans also laughed at them, thinking that they are not worthy of representing the Bundesliga.

The Portuguese Super League, the Czech League, the Greek Super League and the Soviet Super League each have a seat. This time, the distribution of power in European football seems to be much wider.

After all, non-mainstream leagues have teams that have advanced to the top 16, which is enough to make UEFA feel proud.
