The Glory of the Godfather

After the focus battle of the UEFA Champions League Group A group stage, Aston Villa, who staged a major reversal, ranked first in the group with 9 points in all three games.

Not only that, 5:0 Werder Bremen, 5:1 Twente, 5:4 Inter Milan, Aston Villa scored five goals in all three games, with a goal difference of 10, and the offensive firepower shocked Europe football.

With one win, one draw and one loss, Inter Milan ranked second in the group with 4 points.

In this round of the group stage, Bremen and Twente tied, and Twente ranked third with two points and one loss;

Werder Bremen, who lost three games and drew one, is at the bottom of the list.

However, what is interesting is that because of the existence of Aston Villa, Bremen, which lost all three games, still has the hope of advancing.

After the game, UEFA's official website used epic reversal to describe Aston Villa's super reversal.

Photos of Aston Villa head coach Fang Jue and the team's popular fried chicken Gareth Bale appeared on the headlines of major sports media around the world.

Aston Villa is full of jubilation, flowers, and applause, while Italy is full of mourning.

The influence of Serie A has declined year by year in recent years. Last season, Inter Milan won the Triple Crown, giving Serie A a shot in the arm.

The proud Italian said that Serie A is still the best league in Europe.

However, a good meal does not last until noon, and no one expected that Inter Milan would slip so quickly.

Although we can't say that Inter Milan can't do it just because of such a game, it is indeed very embarrassing to be beaten by the opponent for five goals in a row with a 4-0 lead and one more player.

Turin Sports News gloated and said, 'Now it's good, the two teams of Milan City have become classic background boards. '

Is Moratti really here?

Before the ninth round of the Premier League match against Sunderland, Aston Villa received an offer from Inter Milan.

Inter Milan directly offered 50 million euros to buy Gareth Bale.

As the most attractive young star in European football at present, Bell is coveted by major giants. However, the major giants are just waiting and watching, and have not started to act.

Only Inter Milan, perhaps because of the deepest impression on Bale, made an offer directly and couldn't wait.

With Gareth Bale's current popularity and potential, the price of 50 million euros is obviously not enough.

However, for Inter Milan, this offer is quite sincere.

Italy's economy is in a downturn, and the Moratti family is not super rich. The price of 50 million euros is a sky-high price in Italian football.

Inter Milan is more sincere. Fang Jue said while chatting with his assistants.

Then, he rejected Inter Milan's offer without hesitation.

Soon, the news that Inter Milan offered to buy Gareth Bale was revealed by the media.

The Aston Villa club saw the incident and immediately issued a statement: Gareth Bale is not for sale of the team, and he will not sell it for any money!

This is what is truly not for sale.

Inter Milan did not continue to increase the offer. According to the Times, even if a player like Gareth Bale is transferred, the transfer fee is sky-high, which cannot be afforded by the Italian giants.

On October 24th, in the ninth round of the Premier League, Aston Villa was tied 1-1 by Sunderland away.

The game against Inter Milan obviously consumed a lot of Aston Villa's energy. In this game, the defending champion was obviously out of form.

This round of the game has a focus game. Arsenal, ranked seventh before the game, beat the fourth-ranked Manchester City 3-0 in an away game, breaking out a moderate upset.

Fang Jue didn't watch the game, he only found out the score after watching the news the next day.

Fang Jue was a little surprised. He didn't expect Arsenal to bottom out and burst out with such great energy.

When he got off work that day, Fang Jue received a call from Wenger.

We beat Manchester City, Wenger said.

Ah, congratulations. Fang Jue said in a deliberate tone.

Wenger on the other end of the phone was so angry that he couldn't get out what he was talking about. He was so uncomfortable that he hung up the phone angrily.

This old man is really angry.

Fang Jue pouted.

In the contract renewal negotiations between Aston Villa and Gareth Bale, the Villa club took the initiative to make concessions.

In terms of salary, the two sides reached a consensus on the price tag of 55,000 pounds a week.

This also makes Bell the fourth highest paid player in the team after Ronaldo, Ballack and Deisler's £80,000 maximum salary.

Two days later, in the fourth round of the English League Cup, Aston Villa beat Burnley 1-0 at home. Gareth Bale assisted Diego Costa to score the only goal of the game.

After the game, Aston Villa officially announced that the team and Welsh player Gareth Bale had completed the contract extension. According to the new contract, the Welsh star's contract was extended to 2015.

As soon as the news was announced, Aston Villa fans were elated.

Although there is no conclusive evidence that Bell may switch to a giant, but watching the media praise Bell one after another, it will be said that Real Madrid is interested in Bell, that Barcelona is also eyeing Bell, and that Ferguson admires Bell very much. The fans of Stone Villa were panicked.

Now, Bell has completed his contract extension. Although this does not guarantee that Bell will definitely stay at Aston Villa, this is a matter of attitude. At least it shows that the relationship between the player and the club is very good, and it is unlikely that Bell will leave the team .

On October 30th, the 10th round of the Premier League, the Birmingham Derby.

Aston Villa thrashed city rivals Birmingham 5-0 at Villa Park.

After the 10th round of the Premier League, Aston Villa and Chelsea have the same 24 points. Aston Villa ranks first with the advantage of goal difference, and Chelsea ranks second.

It is worth mentioning that Arsenal won this game again. They beat West Ham United 1-0 at home.

At the same time, Manchester City, who were defeated by Arsenal in the last round, lost 1-2 away to Wolves in this round.

People were surprised to find that Arsenal, who had been ranked in the middle of the league before, climbed up with two consecutive victories.

Manchester United ranked third in the league with 20 points.

With 17 points, Arsenal returned to their most familiar fourth place in the league.

Fang Jue feels that if Arsenal can come back, Wenger's meritorious service is half of his.

Did he deliberately mock Wenger last time?

Of course not, he deliberately provoked the professor out of the sincerity of a friend.

Fang Jue also specifically called Wenger, asking Wenger to invite him to dinner as a token of gratitude.

The good-tempered Wenger couldn't laugh or cry angrily. He had never seen such a thick-skinned person.

...

On November 2, 2010, the fourth match day of Group A of the UEFA Champions League group stage, Aston Villa played against the defending champion Inter Milan at home.

In view of the super reversal that shocked the world between the two sides eleven days ago, this game is particularly eye-catching.

Italy's Gazzetta dello Sport reported that Inter Milan boss Moratti gave Inter Milan an order to win.

The boss who loves Inter Milan deeply and has broken his heart for this team, broke his heart in the last game.

For Inter Milan, this game is not just about revenge, but about saving face.

The most important thing is that if Inter Milan wants to compete for the first place in the group, this game must be won.

Villa Park was packed.

In the last game, the team played away. There were only more than 2,000 Aston Villa fans on the away game. Most of the fans were not able to witness the magnificent epic reversal at the scene, and they deeply regretted it.

Returning to the home court this time, the fans are very much looking forward to the team's ability to play a high-level game again.

Fang Jue fulfilled his promise and arranged for Ronaldo to start this game.

The Brazilian did not live up to Fang Jue's expectations. In the 15th minute of the first half, after receiving a pass from Mane, he dribbled the ball into the penalty area and broke through the goal guarded by Brazilian compatriot Cesar with a low shot. .

One to zero, Aston Villa made a fantastic start.

In the 40th minute of the first half, the high-profile Gareth Bale lived up to expectations and scored another goal for Aston Villa.

Led by the live broadcast at Villa Park Stadium, the fans chanted Gareth Bale's name frantically.

The Welsh teenager is now the darling of Aston Villa fans.

Not only that, Bell also let the Brazilian right back Maicon who defended him strain a muscle, unable to continue to participate in the game, and was forced to leave the field with an injury.

This brought a double blow to Inter Milan.

Benitez had to replace Muntari to play in midfield, allowing the team captain Zanetti to return to the right-back position.

...

Maicon's injury left the field, which dealt a considerable blow to Inter Milan.

In the process of defending Bell this time, it can be said that Maicon tried his best, but he still couldn't defend Bell. He also strained his muscles because of turning around forcibly.

Who is Maicon?

The absolute hero of Inter Milan's Triple Crown last season, known as the number one right back in football.

Looking at the high-spirited Maicon last season, he was humiliated by Bell in two consecutive games.

Looking at Inter Milan, as the defending champion, the whole game was passive, and the rhythm of the game was completely controlled by Aston Villa.

It was like seeing old men tortured by young men, and it hurt the Inter fans very emotionally.

Maicon's injury left the field, and the team fell behind zero to two, which made Inter Milan's morale low and the scene was a bit chaotic.

Aston Villa seized the opportunity and made it 4-0 with goals from Diego Costa and Deisler in the space of five minutes before the end of the first half.

The cheers at the scene were loud.

The audience in front of the TV was also stunned. In the last round of the match, Inter Milan once led 4-0. Although it was humiliating to be overturned by Aston Villa with five goals in a row, the general opinion is that Inter Milan Milan's strength is still there, and the process of being overturned is too miraculous and not universal. In this game, the two sides can still play evenly.

No one thought that Aston Villa responded to Inter Milan with a 4-0 in the first half of the game.

This is Aston Villa! Crazy Aston Villa! commentator John. It's not normal, there is an unexpected factor of the goalkeeper being sent off, and now, Aston Villa with all the staff has shown their strength to everyone!

At the end of the first half, Aston Villa temporarily led Inter Milan with a score of 4-0.

During the intermission, the Italian commentator was still encouraging and cheering Inter Milan.

There is still time for the game. Aston Villa can come back from zero to four, so can we! Italian commentator Gennaro shouted, Inter Milan is the defending champion and the triple crown. As long as we are ourselves, we are not afraid of anything!

Then, just three minutes into the second half.

Gareth Bale assisted Ballack with a header and Aston Villa led Inter Milan 5-0 at home.

In the end, Inter Milan didn't score the face-saving goal by Eto'o until the 80th minute of the game.

Aston Villa beat Inter Milan 5-1 at home.

While winning this game, Aston Villa also won all four games and accumulated 12 points, qualifying for the group stage ahead of time, and also secured the first place in the group ahead of time.

After the results of the UEFA Champions League group stage draw came out, Group A, which has the triple crown winner Inter Milan, the third Bundesliga Werder Bremen, the Eredivisie champion Twente and the Premier League champion Aston Villa, was considered dead. Group.

Everyone believes that Inter Milan will win the first place in the group without any suspense. Aston Villa will compete with Werder Bremen and Twente for a second promotion ticket in the group. The battle will be extremely tragic.

No one expected that Aston Villa would score in four consecutive games 5-0, 5-1, 5-4, 5-1 in this 'group of death', sweeping all opponents, two rounds ahead The competition locks the first place in the group!

In another game in the same group, Twente defeated Werder Bremen 2-0. They surpassed Inter Milan with 4 points by 5 points and temporarily ranked second, and Inter Milan ranked third. .

After the game, Benitez admitted that the team did not play well in these two games, but he believes that Inter Milan will soon get out of the haze. Inter Milan has missed the first place in the group. The next two games will be decisive battles. Will fight for second place in the group.

Fang Jue said happily that Aston Villa has completed the task of the UEFA Champions League group stage well ahead of schedule.

He didn't say that the team's focus has shifted to the Premier League, but everyone can guess what he means.

Aston Villa, which has secured the first place in the group in advance, will not be so important in the next two rounds of the group stage. Considering the fierce competition for the Premier League title, Aston Villa can shift their focus to the league. Before the UEFA Champions League knockout round in February, try to score as many points in the league as possible to maintain a strong competition for the league championship.

UEFA's official website reported the match under the headline: Crazy Villa!
