Chapter 180 Victory Cigar
(Thanks for the 500 rewards for the rain smashing the plantain!)

After Ashley Cole left the field, Arsenal failed to organize a strong offensive, and almost all of the last few minutes were wasted in the midfield strangulation.

Wenger frowned. This season, they originally thought of killing all sides in the Champions League, but the reality is not quite the same as imagined.Lost to Deportivo in the away game and won Juventus at home, but also lost to the opponent in the away game, and the promotion situation is not very good.

Slightly better than Leverkusen, now it's gone, there is no way to win Leverkusen at home, and the points are overtaken by Leverkusen.

When the game entered stoppage time, Top Muller used up the last substitution, Lin Lian was replaced in advance, and Berbatov played, feeling the intense atmosphere of the Champions League game.

All the fans at Highbury Stadium stood up at the same time and applauded Lin Lian for his legendary performance.

Lin Lian walked to the sidelines and waved to the fans. He felt good. In an away game, he can still win the respect of his opponents. This is a very rare situation.

Finally, amidst the regrets of the Arsenal fans, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.In the end, relying on Lin Lian's personal ability, Leverkusen escaped from the death away game and temporarily rose to third place in the group. Because of the outcome, the ranking fell behind Juventus.

At present, Leverkusen has 4 points, and in the last 3 games, at least 5 points must be scored to qualify from the death group.

After all, the teams in this group do not have an absolute advantage over each other. Winning or losing is normal. Deportivo ranked first with 5 points in three games. Juventus ranked second with 4 points in three games. Deportivo ranked third. Na got 3 points and could only be at the bottom, which was an embarrassing situation.

"You want to go back one day later?" Top Muller was a little strange when he saw Lin Lian asking for leave. "Here, do you still have friends? Female friends?"

Suddenly, he also reacted, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I understand, Cheryl, the most popular singer in England recently, I said, why are you so good! Have a good night."

Lin Lian shrugged, "Sorry, this is a special situation. I will rush back tomorrow as soon as possible."

…………

After the harmony, Lin Lian lay on Cheryl's lap and ate grapes, "Why are you so disgusted with Arsenal's No. 3 player?"

"I don't know, it's disgusting just looking at it." Cheryl pursed her lips, "It's not a good person just looking at it, it almost hurt you."

"..." There was nothing to say, and I didn't know how to answer.

Why is Cheryl so upset with Cole?I don't understand, actually, Lin Lian didn't want to do that either.

After a comfortable night in London, Lin Lian returned to Leverkusen and the fight continued.

Against Arsenal at home, Leverkusen won again. Lin Lian did not score, but sent two assists, and created a penalty at the last moment. He took the initiative to let Bierhoff kick the ball, and the old guy scored a penalty. Finally, he took the initiative to hug Lin Lian, almost crying.

Another same 3:2, only three goals were scored, all of which were Leverkusen. Arsenal lost two games in a row, and the qualifying situation was instantly precarious.In contrast, Leverkusen's situation is much better, with 7 points, second only to Deportivo.

Super Depor defeated Juventus 2:0 at home, with 8 points and 1 point ahead of Leverkusen.Of course, both Juventus and Arsenal still have a chance. As long as Arsenal wins the last two games, they still have hope of qualifying.

For now, the Champions League has become Leverkusen's main battlefield, because after Lin Lian's return, as long as the team does their best, the league and German Cup matches will not be too difficult. big.

In mid-March, the group stage entered the final decisive moment. Leverkusen played against Juventus at home. In the first round of the group stage, Leverkusen lost 3:0 away, which was extremely miserable.

"We will do our best to win at home. This is the Bayer Arena, and we will definitely show our best form." Top Muller was not very confident, and the first game lost too badly.

"We have no retreat. Only by defeating our opponents can we win the right to qualify. The competition in this group is very difficult, and we cannot take it lightly."

In any case, Juventus is an Italian team with better tactical quality than the German team.For a long time, the Italian team has been trying to restrain the German team. Even Bayern, who is experienced in European wars, still has no advantage in the face of Juventus at this moment.

Lippi held on to his glasses, his eyes gleamed, "Although we beat Leverkusen at home, it was not a normal state. They have Lin Lian, and he has recovered."

"The game will be very difficult for us because they are leading and we are only catching up. I believe they will not give us many chances, but we must also strive to qualify."

It's a bit of flattering Leverkusen, giving the opponent anesthesia.

As long as the game is won, Leverkusen's qualifying situation will be clear. 10 points can basically lock the qualifying right. If luck is not good, it depends on the relationship between each other.

On Juventus' side, the elite are all out, and Buffon is the most stable link in the goalkeeper position.

On the back line, Pessoto, Iuliano, Montero, and Thuram started together, a very stable defense line combination.

In the midfield four, the Czech iron man Nedved, "Wild Boar" Davis, Tacchinardi and Zambrotta started together. Now Zambrotta often appears in the midfield, and then he hits the back more and more.

The striker combination is Del Piero and Trezeguet.

When the two teams shook hands, Nedved exchanged a few words with Lin Lian. It was really interesting to meet friends from Lazio in two different teams.

"I won't show mercy, be careful with our defense."

"Of course, you have to be careful." Lin Lian smiled and patted Nedved on the shoulder.Lin Lian's almost invincible performance in the past few years made his former teammates take the initiative to chatter when they saw him.

On Leverkusen's side, the defense is still the same combination, which has not changed in three consecutive Champions League games.The old man combination of Bout and Placente, Lucio, Nowotny, Sebezen.

Leverkusen's biggest problem is that the lineup is too thin. This season is lucky and there are no injuries. Otherwise, by this time, it should be a remnant team to meet the enemy.

The combination of midfielder Basturk and LaMelo, and the two wings are Brdaric and Ze Roberto.

On the forward line, Lin Lian and Berbatov started the game.This is the first time for Berbatov to start in the Champions League this season. He was full of combat effectiveness as soon as he stepped on the lawn.

I don't know if it's a superstition, but Top Muller put Ballack and Snyder on the bench for several German players, clearly intending to kill Juventus.

With his hands in his pockets, Lippi quietly squeezed a cigar, "Today, I'm going to light a victory cigar at the Bayer Arena!"
