The Ball at Your Feet

: Section 656: Ballots in Hand

After the victory over Manchester City, Liverpool ushered in the best time to grab points.

Until the 24th round of Chelsea, there were no strong teams among Liverpool's opponents. The UEFA Champions League has secured the top spot in the group, the League Cup is out, and the FA Cup games will have to wait until January. Throughout December, what Liverpool need to care about is the league games.

Soon, against Wigan Athletic, Liverpool easily won the victory. In the game, Zhao Yaning scored a free kick again, and after adding a goal directly inserted into the penalty area after cooperating with Gerrard, he scored twice in the game, and in this game, Alonso A long-range shot was scored and Fowler, who came off the bench, scored the last goal. In the end, the game ended 4-0.

After this game, Liverpool ushered in the sixth game of the Champions League. In this game, they sent a group of substitutes away, and in this game, Liverpool also lost 1-3 happily. The only goal to save face came from Riise's free kick. In this game, he was also the only player on the field and played well.

And after the end of this game, the top sixteen of the Champions League are also released.

After Chelsea once again met Barcelona, ​​they surprisingly beat Barcelona to the top of the group-the reason why it is surprising is because considering Chelsea's recent league record, I have to say that they are really good. .

Since this season, Barcelona has also declined compared to last season. Ronaldinho played his worst series in the World Cup when he was away from the championship. Although Brazil’s defeat is not his own problem, the frontcourt fantasy quartet and coaches all have unshirkable responsibilities, but Ronaldinho is the only one of the four superstars who did not score a goal, so he bears the most accusations, and he can’t. Not responsible for this, which makes him not very good this season-of course, after the Champions League, the degree of attention the team has soared is another reason.

Although in the league results, they are still on the head of Real Madrid, but in the Champions League games, their decline has begun to reflect.

Bayern Munich overtook Inter Milan and achieved the first place in the group, which is completely upside down with them. After losing Ballack, Bayern Munich did not sign in time-in fact, this is also related to finances, after all, they are building a new stadium. Under such circumstances, it is rare for Bayern to fall behind from the beginning of the season in the league, and has not been able to catch it up until now. But even so, in the Champions League, they still did not lose to Inter Milan and got the first place in the group.

In the Valencia and Roma teams, Valencia successfully defeated Roma to reach the top. Roma and Inter Milan are in the same situation. After all, they are not the Champions League places they earned, and their strength is even worse.

And Manchester United won without difficulty-the Celtics are second in the group, what else can be said? They are too embarrassed if they can't get the first place.

The real shame is Arsenal-last season's Champions League runner-up, this season was squeezed by Porto to second in the group. The champions and runners-ups can't get the first place in the group together, which is also amazing.

The other two groups are a bit embarrassing. Lyon once again pressed Real Madrid to the top-they have now gained experience from playing Real Madrid-although Real Madrid has replaced Capello as a coach, the improvement in strength is really not big in the European war. And although Lyon sold his midfielder M Diarra to Real Madrid last season, they also won the game this season.

Although Milan was still the first in the group, it took until the sixth game to determine the identity of the group, and it was still the first in the group with ten points, and the second place was Lille. This also makes people sigh: Milan's strong dominance in the Champions League seems to no longer exist this season. Although it still looks like a tiger that cannot be defeated, how can Milan, which is no longer dominant, be regarded as Milan?

Is it Shepchenko? Some, but not all. The bigger reason is Milan's lack of energy. 04,05,06 All three years of Champions League losses were inexplicable, and the match-fixing broke out in the league. Although Milan was exempted from relegation penalties, they were still penalized. Under such circumstances, the mentality of Milan that had always been strong has been completely wiped out. Milan has become unstable this season. It is not so much a decline in strength, but a bad mentality.

Milan, who has lost ambition and domineering, has no longer dominance in the Champions League. Although they are still very strong, they are still a champion-level team, but they are no longer the strongest, and they have lost the domineering and lofty spirit of seeing the mountains.

And this also gave all other teams a chance to win.

Knowing that there are almost no strong teams in the second team except Barcelona and Real Madrid, it also relieved Liverpool. With a two-seventh chance, it is still rare to get them. Moreover, if it is Real Madrid, Liverpool is more confident to win. After all, Real Madrid's current poor state is well known to everyone. After the Galaxy Battleship failed, they still seem to have not recovered. Now if Liverpool meets Real Madrid, they will not be very afraid.

At this time, returning to the league, Liverpool had another draw: in this game, Milito, who had come back, still did not play very well, and Fulham's close guarding of the whole game obviously did not play a role for Liverpool. Little, at the end of the game, Liverpool can only accept a 0-0 draw

And then, Liverpool also faced Charlton. Since this season, Charlton has also been reduced to a relegation team. When Liverpool faced them, there was nothing to worry about. A clean 3-0, Gerrard's long shot, Kuyt's header. , Coupled with Zhao Yaning's free kick goal, Liverpool won another victory.

"When there is no two-line combat mission, Liverpool is obviously strong and terrible. When they only need to play one front and they don't have to make too many rotations, their strength can be highlighted."

The media's judgment on Liverpool is also very accurate. Indeed, the reason why Liverpool's lineup is not thick enough makes them easy to qualify for various problems once they are caught in a two-line or even a three-line battle. But when they recovered to a front line, they still played quite well.

At this time, another thing is also very memorable.

After eighteen rounds, Zhao Yaning scored four free kicks. The number of free kicks like this makes the media also very concerned.

"Zhao Yaning has scored four free kicks in half a season, and if he can score four more free kicks in the second half of the season, he can score a total of eight free kicks. Moreover, according to Zhao Yaning's As always, his performance in the second half of the season will be slightly better than the first half of the season. In this way, he may be able to break through the number of eight free kicks-the European record is now eight free kicks in a single season. Let us Looking forward, Zhao Yaning will set this record to become a record in the Premier League."

The European league record of eight free kicks was created by Junior Juninho in Lyon. At this time, he is still playing, and it is possible to set this record again. Therefore, this also gave Zhao Yaning some ideas: Maybe, he can make this record higher?

It's a good thing to challenge one's own limits.

Therefore, in the interview, Zhao Yaning also spoke directly about this, "I look forward to trying to break this record. It is very interesting to be able to compete with Juninho."

Juninho also responded immediately. "I also look forward to this result. There will always be some benefits in such competition."

After all, the free kick record is not an important thing. If this record is broken, it is not a big deal. It is at best a talk. At this time, it was another matter that made Zhao Yaning wonder how to do it well.

As the captain of the national team, he has to vote for the World Footballer.

This year is the year of the competition, so Mr. must be from the championship team. There is absolutely no problem with this. Zhao Yaning himself knew this convention very well and had no idea of ​​violating it. After all, the World Cup is once every four years. It is a great affirmation of a team to be able to play good results in such a competition. If the voting in this kind of competition year does not depend on the performance of the national team, then such a vote is still has no meaning?

However, even if he knew this, Zhao Yaning still wanted to vote for Zidane.

After all, this time the World Cup, Zidane played an unparalleled level. Although Zhao Yaning also admitted that even if Zidane did not win the game, the French team might not necessarily be able to win the game. However, the French team led by Zidane played the most exciting game and they excellently suppressed it. In addition to their opponents, in a few knockout matches, they showed a completely repressive football. Although it is not beautiful, it is indeed very desirable.

In contrast, ~www.ltnovel.com~Although Italy is also very strong...but this kind of defensive counter-attack football is not very desirable football after all. Although Zhao Yaning also admitted that whether it is Buffon or Cannavaro, their performance in the game can only be described by the word great, but they play, after all, not the football that Zhao Yaning likes. They are indeed winners, but they are not the very desired winners.

If it wasn't for Zidane, even if the French team lost, Zhao Yaning would not hesitate to vote for Zidane. However, Zidane's way of leaving was really so embarrassing that he didn't know what to say. Do you continue to vote for him? It also made it difficult for Zhao Yaning to make a judgment.

After thinking for a long time, he still voted for Zidane. If it weren't for Zidane to retire, he wouldn't vote for him-malicious fouls are serious after all. But since he is going to retire, then vote for him as the final farewell.

"Actually, you can have other choices." After Zhang Yuan learned the news, he called Zhao Yaning specially. After learning about Zhao Yaning's thoughts, he also mentioned it vaguely, "You can vote for yourself. ."

"I still hope to get affirmation from others." Zhao Yaning rejected this idea, "I believe that I can also get affirmation from other people."
