The Ball at Your Feet

"This time the winner of the World Footballer is...Zhao Yaning."

Real Madrid chose to give up the match against Olympiacos. Even so, Zhao Yaning won the World Footballer's selection.

After Zhao Yaning won the World Footballer's Award as he wished, Kaka won another second place. The current media has changed the name of the second in the millennium to his head. With whom to learn what skills, and with Ancelotti, Kaka is also regarded as the second in a thousand years...

But Messi got third.

It has to be said that the combination of the two swords of the Barcelona and Argentina media is indeed extremely powerful. Messi, who has nothing for a year, just relied on a hat-trick against the Real Madrid and entered the top three. And Zhao Yaning looked at the little Ronaldinho sitting in the audience, and sighed for him-the footballer looks at his fame, and a player from a weak country in football wants to win in the World Footballer's Selection for one year. The outbreak is not enough. Portugal is not too strong in terms of football. It has never made it to the World Cup finals several times. In this regard, Ronaldinho suffers no less than Zhao Yaning.

However, as long as it is a good player, relying on hard work, it will always be able to kill it. Zhao Yaning had seen Xiao Luo's strength, and he also believed that this person would not sit here for a long time.

After the selection of the World Player of Football, another big event was held this evening: today is the day of the draw for the Champions League knockout.

Real Madrid qualify as the first in the group and will also be the second team in the group. In theory, it shouldn't be difficult. However, in the second team of the group, there are indeed a few Big Macs that no one wants to meet.

Lyon is one of them-Lyon under the guidance of Mourinho is quite strong, although in the group stage, they were bullied by Mourinho's old enemy Barcelona, ​​but this is still a strong team.

Arsenal is also the same-this season, Arsenal played a very gorgeous offense, and in terms of results, they are also leading the Premier League. Such results have also attracted Arsenal attention. Although the Champions League did not play well, they still It is considered very powerful.

And then there is Liverpool...

To them, Zhao Yaning could only sigh.

"According to UEFA's habits, the probability of Real Madrid being drawn to Liverpool is very high." Before the draw, Barcelona's media all predicted this way. There was even a hint of jealousy in their words-Zhao Yaning left, Liverpool fell to fourth in the league this season, and in the Champions League, their fighting power has also dropped a lot. Many people think that they are not good. Again. It may not be a good thing to get them.

However, the result of the draw made them all stunned.

"Barcelona, ​​Liverpool."

This result stunned the people in Barcelona: What is the situation in the end?

Barcelona drew Liverpool... Such a result made the Barcelona people feel that their luck was really good.

What team is Liverpool? That was the last European champion! Their strength has always been highly respected-if Zhao Yaning hadn't left.

But Zhao Yaning left. This season, they did not play well. In the league, they dropped to fourth in the league, in the Champions League, second in the group, and none of the three cups... Simple, and still won the last championship, there is something in it!

The only trouble is that the opponent's striker is Torres, that guy, who is born at odds with Barcelona. Barcelona has its own problems. To them, Torres is a more terrifying guy than Zhao Yaning. Zhao Yaning only played a hat-trick at the Nou Camp, but Torres has regarded the killing of Puyol as one of the greatest pleasures of his life. The former Atletico golden boy met every time he met Barcelona. When Puyol was on guard, he would be excited as if he had taken medicine to achieve excellent results. Torres' threat, compared to Liverpool's championship team, he made Barcelona feel a kind of faint liver pain.

But even so, the Barcelona media is still extremely excited. Draw a team that is too weak, it seems that the team has no face to win, and a team that is too strong causes headaches. It is best to play Liverpool.

In this regard, the Barcelona media are all demonstrating: Even without Zhao Yaning, Liverpool is a strong team. In this regard, the Madrid media criticized, but Zhao Yaning kept quiet.

He knows the strength of Liverpool. If Barcelona is abusive, it would be asking for trouble. However, there is no need for him to remind Barcelona that it is not committed.

Real Madrid drew in the top sixteen, the mid-strength Rome.

"I have to say that after Zhao Yaning moved to Real Madrid, he brought his luck to Real Madrid." Raul, who was interviewed, seemed very happy, "We may be able to make some good breakthroughs this year."

The opponent is a second-rate team like Roma, letting Madrid breathe a sigh of relief. In the past two years, because they were always squeezed to the second place in the group, they either met Juventus or Liverpool, so that their heads were also crowned with the title of Champions League Sixteen Lang. By this year, they are all holding a sigh of breath, wanting to make some breakthroughs.

But just as Zhao Yaning thought, many people can also see that the team does not have an excellent defense and relying solely on offense to support the game, it is estimated that it will not be able to go very far. Zhao Yaning is also worried that if Real Madrid like this meets a strong opponent in the knockout round, will it be directly exposed. This is not impossible. Because of the previous rumors, Zhao Yaning had thought about how to play when he met Liverpool-but no matter what he imagined, he had only one conclusion: such Real Madrid met Liverpool, Beni Mascherano under the command of Tes guarded Zhao Yaning. The rest of the time was to see Gerrard and the others, who could abuse Real Madrid.

However, the opponent drawn was Roma, which made him breathe a sigh of relief. The Serie A teams, except for Juventus and Milan, are weaker after all, and should not pose too much threat. Even if Inter Milan, who is now dominating the country in Italy, is just a piece of pork belly in the European arena, let alone Rome, which is weaker than them?

After the phone call, the influence of Serie A has been greatly affected, and the seriousness of the problem has just emerged.

He admitted that his idea is more than one grade weaker than the idea of ​​wanting to play a strong team last season. However, there is no other way: Liverpool’s morale has improved to the fullest last season, and I can’t wait to play the strongest opponents every game to maintain enough passion. Real Madrid this season is another matter entirely. Real Madrid is now mostly young people. What the team needs is experience and confidence. They don't have the courage to fight against strong opponents. For such a team, it is a good thing to play more against underdogs and accumulate experience.

Therefore, he was very pleased with the result of this draw. Isn't it enough to meet the needs of the team's development?

Moreover, at this time, the first half of the season has entered the final stage, and he did not have the time to think so much: Athletic Bilbao, Osasuna, and especially Barcelona at the end. These teams, all of them It's not easy to deal with.

However, if all goes well, the scores of Real Madrid and Barcelona will be further increased to more than 10 points if these games are over. This is basically another saying that there is no hope for Barcelona in the season.

In addition, after these four games, La Liga will also enter the winter break, and at the same time, it is also the winter transfer period. Robinho is estimated to be leaving, and Real Madrid will need some new players at that time.

However, that's something for the future, and the current thing is to take care of Athletic Bilbao.

"Zhao Yaning once again proved that in a game with him, it is not so easy for an opponent to win."

Immediately afterwards, Real Madrid visited Athletic Bilbao. This famous team has always been famous for one of their extremely unique characteristics: all the players on their team have Basque ancestry, and they don’t want players without Basque ancestry.

What Zhao Yaning didn’t know was that this made their team’s stadium extremely luxurious: when a team had a lot of money in their hands and nowhere to spend, they would spend all the money on building the stadium. .

Zhao Yaning's impression of the Basques is not bad. Although he has heard of a lot of Basque terrorist attacks, he himself, after all, does not have a deep knowledge of those things. Among the people he knows, coach Deschamps and Alonso are both Basques. Therefore, he has always had a good impression of Basques, although this nation may indeed be like the Real Madrid players, with a little grumpy temper. , But Zhao Yaning felt that, no matter how irritable the Latin people are, where can they be irritable? He doesn't think that the Basques are any bad guys. Although he knows that Athletic Bilbao is one of Real Madrid's mortal enemies, he doesn't feel too much. Although he and Raul share the same views, he believes that some of Athletic Bilbao’s practices are a bit too extreme. It is not good for the development of football to not recruit foreigners. However, for the Basques, he does not What too much dislike.

However, at the beginning of the game, he changed this view: In this game, the opponent's players watched him very closely and did not even give him any chance. Moreover, the opponent's tackles were fierce and defensive. Hardness is also very surprising. Relying on the looseness of the home whistle, Zhao Yaning even had the illusion of returning to the Premier League for a while, which made him feel quite uncomfortable.

At this time, Zhao Yaning also remembered. It seems that it was Athletic Bilbao who broke Maradona's leg and then celebrated...

In this game, Zhao Yaning was rarely restricted. In the game, he was not playing very smoothly when he was guarded by the opponent. In the game, he was not able to create goals and assists. In this game, at the end, Relying on Ruud van Nistelrooy's long shot outside the penalty zone, he won 1-0 in an unconventional way.

"The opponent's defensive player is very good defensive, I have encountered some trouble." In an interview, Zhao Yaning also happily admitted, "It may be that after arriving in La Liga, the schedule is not so tight, and I also relaxed myself. Yes, but I won’t do it for a long time."

In private, Zhao Yaning immediately asked his teammates, "What is the name of the defensive midfielder?"

"Harvey Martinez." Guti answered his question. "Think he played well?"

Zhao Yaning nodded: Real Madrid now has Diarra and Yaya Toure in the midfield. Toure's offensive support ability is strong enough, but he is defensively, and the interception is not very timely. There is no problem with Diarra doing this job now, but he is not young anymore, and Zhao Yaning is also thinking about ~www.ltnovel.com~ If he leaves, who is better for the team's midfielder.

He has already considered these issues in his heart. However, there is no need to talk about these things now.

Real Madrid’s problems require a lot of changes, but fortunately, Real Madrid has money and is willing to buy people. Zhao Yaning is not a superman. It is impossible for him to fight against everyone by himself. He needs qualified helpers to be able to play well. Mata, Higuain, these players are the people he sees from the team, and other positions require talents from other teams. Zhao Yaning believes that if these people play under his leadership, coupled with a good coach, they can play scary football.

And immediately, Real Madrid defeated Osasuna in a 2-0 game-this was their second to last enemy before the winter break. After playing them, Real Madrid only had one opponent left. .

Next, they are about to face Barcelona——

ps: That year, Real Madrid drew Rome. Barcelona’s 16 draws and 8 draws are the Celtics, and the 8 draws and 4 draws are Schalke 04-this lucky draw is against the sky... Chelsea are with them, 16 draws and 8 draws Olympiacos. Eight into four draw Fenerbahçe. Sometimes, signing for shipment is very decisive. The lottery will also be adjusted.
