Chapter 88 Goodbye Moya
After the game, Reyes got a call from Moya.

"You performed well in this game!" Moya didn't feel nervous on the phone: "How is it? I see that you and Raul have a good relationship. Have you decided to move to Real Madrid?"

Reyes laughed angrily: "Didn't you decide for me?"

Mo Yaxian was in a good mood: "Haha, so in this way, do you agree?"

Reyes stopped talking, he knew that Moya would definitely not make this call for no reason.

"By the way, Antonio, I want to tell you something." Moya still couldn't hide it, and said first, "Remember to read the newspaper tomorrow, there will be surprises."

"Oh? What a surprise?" Reyes asked.

"You'll know it when you see it!"

"That's it! Then you also remember to read tomorrow's newspaper, maybe you will have a surprise too!" Reyes joked.

"What... what?" Moya had a bad feeling.

"Let's read the newspaper tomorrow!"

After finishing speaking, Reyes didn't bother to talk nonsense, so he hung up the phone directly.

Now Reyes doesn't take Moya's matter seriously anymore. He is a professional player, not a conspirator, and playing football is what he should do most.

******************
After the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals are decided, there will be another draw before the quarter-finals to determine the matchup of the quarter-finals.

In the end, the quarter-final matches were: Lyon VSAC Milan, Benfica VS Barcelona, ​​Arsenal VS Juventus, Inter Milan VS Villarreal.

This draw is the final draw of the UEFA Champions League. Instead of avoiding the same country and group, a mixed draw will be carried out. The result of this draw is the last draw before the UEFA Champions League final.

In this final grouping, Juventus and Arsenal had a much-anticipated strong dialogue, and it was also the second tough bone that Arsenal encountered after eliminating Real Madrid.In this game, everyone is still optimistic about Arsenal's opponent.In terms of strength, Juventus has a slight advantage. From the point of view of the two-line battle, it may take more effort for Arsenal to compete for the first place in the league than Juventus. In terms of schedule, Juventus is the first visitor. After the Lord, all the favorable signs point to Juventus.

But what Juventus is facing is by no means flat. When Arsenal drew Real Madrid, who was optimistic about Real Madrid?

From the perspective of style, Juventus does not have an advantage over European technical teams, and Henry, who was abandoned by Juventus back then, will also have extra motivation. These are all beneficial to Barcelona.

In this group, the most disparate in strength and weakness are Benfica and Barcelona.Judging from the previous record and prestige in Europe, the battle between Barcelona and Benfica is the most disparate, but as people often say, there is no weak team that reaches the quarter-finals of the Champions League, let alone Benfica's 3-0 in two rounds A big score eliminated Liverpool.

Of course, if you insist on picking one of the four matchups with a big gap between strength and weakness, it can only be a match between Barcelona and Benfica. It is not because Benfica is not strong enough, but because Barcelona is too strong. His opponent is quite dominant.

As for AC Milan and Lyon, Inter Milan and Villarreal, there are also many topics, but these are the tasks of the media.For Arsenal, the most important thing is to play the next game well.

Coincidentally, in the next league game, Arsenal's opponent happened to be Liverpool, who had just been eliminated from the Champions League.

Liverpool did not have the magic of last season this season. Last season, under the leadership of Rafa Benitez, they broke into the Champions League final, and then staged the famous "Istanbul Night" in the final, reversing AC Milan and winning Champions League champion.

But their good luck seems to have run out last season. This season, Liverpool's luck was surprisingly bad, and they were out of the Champions League.The Red Army was infinitely close to Benfica player Simao during the summer transfer process, but the transfer failed because Benfica temporarily raised the asking price, which also led to the inability to complete Liverpool's transfer work.

The most dramatic thing is that it was Simao's perfect performance in Benfica that helped Benfica eliminate Liverpool.

The road dance score of the Champions League exit, now only the league and the FA Cup are left to compete for.

Facing Arsenal in this round will definitely make Liverpool fans have mixed feelings.It was at this time last month that Arsenal played away to Liverpool.At that time, they were still complacent. Liverpool met Benfica, a big team, and Arsenal had to face the giant Real Madrid.

But what about a month later?

Arsenal, the hottest player, counterattacked Real Madrid and defeated Real Madrid with two rounds of impeccable performance, while Liverpool was eliminated by the even hotter Benfica.

I believe that many Red Army fans who gloated at the time will be ashamed now?
Of course, the game still has to go on.In fact, because they were defeated by a top team like Benfica in the Champions League, Liverpool was even more angry!
So, they turned all their anger to the league, and it just so happened that they ran into Arsenal.

Arsenal advanced, they were eliminated, how can this not make Liverpool jealous?
Furious and red-eyed, Arsenal found that the entire Liverpool team seemed to be on dope, launching an attack on Arsenal's penalty area desperately.

After two consecutive rounds of away defeats and a draw at home, Arsenal's gap with Chelsea widened again.

Now that the league has reached the present, the weakness of Arsenal's bench has been exposed again. They can beat their opponents with a determined fighting spirit in one or two games.But in the face of a league consisting of 38 games combined, it is obvious that a stable performance throughout the season can win the championship.

The thickness of Arsenal's bench has become a fatal injury. Once Henry is gone, it will be difficult for the remaining people to create a situation.

But in contrast to Chelsea, even if Drogba is absent, they still have Crespo, a world-class striker, to use, so although Chelsea has many problems now, the only shortcoming that does not exist is the bench problem.

In addition, in the Champions League just past, Chelsea was eliminated by Barcelona, ​​so their biggest dream is now to defend the league title.

Now Chelsea's points have broken the historical record for the same period, so facing Chelsea, who are striving to win, Liverpool is wise to set their goal to win the league runner-up.

The first thing to do to compete for the runner-up is to beat the current second place in the league, Arsenal.

Liverpool's players have good ideas, and Arsenal's players worry about exhaustion in two-line battles, but Liverpool can use all their energy.

The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.Although Arsenal are tired, their state has remained at the peak!

In the 23rd minute of the first half, Francois Francois sent a wonderful pass with his right foot near the midfielder. Carragher missed the tackle. Henry dribbled the ball into the left side of the penalty area, 10 meters in front of the French striker. Sideways right foot shot into the far corner of the goal.

The current Liverpool is obviously unable to compete with Arsenal.

In the 75th minute, Gerrard shot with his right foot from 26 meters in front of the field. Lehmann fell to the ground and saved the ball. Luis Garcia beat Toure 8 meters in front of the goal and headed into the lower right corner.Liverpool leveled the score and got a hope.

But Henry's lore sent the Red Army to a dead end!
In the 83rd minute, Gerrard made a mistake in the backcourt. Reyes took the ball straight to Henry. After stealing the ball, Henry easily swayed past Reina who was attacking, and pushed his right foot into the empty goal.Arsenal took the lead again, while Henry scored his 21st goal in the league, tied with Ruud van Nistelrooy for the top scorer list.

Reyes and Luis Garcia swapped jerseys after the game, both were named to Spain's World Cup squad and four months later they were teammates.

After the game, Reyes made a phone call: "Is everything done?"

"It's all done, and Moya has handed over the work." A deep male voice replied over there.

**i********
Turning the time back to the morning of this day, Mo Ya excitedly asked her female secretary to buy herself a newspaper of the day.

Yesterday he handed over the photo of himself shaking hands with Florentino to the newspaper, and today is the time for the newspaper to publish it.

When Moya happily opened the newspaper, the smile on his face froze.

The headline on the front page of the newspaper was not his photo, but a message: "Reyes Announces Termination of Mr. Moya's Representation".

With this news, what's the use of that photo of myself?

Take it out as a joke?
Moya was in a dizzy situation for a while, and more than half of his current reputation and status was earned by Reyes. Now that Reyes fired him, he would have nothing.

He didn't expect Reyes to really do such a thing.

At this time, Moya's phone rang, and it was a strange call.

"Is it Mr. Moya? I'm the agent of Stellar Football in England, and I'm also the new manager of Mr. Reyes. Now we can discuss the issue of handing over all Mr. Reyes' property under your control!"
