Chapter 70
[You have strengthened your body through personal training, bounce +1]

During the team training, Zhang Chaoqiang unknowingly increased his attributes a little.

Fournier sat on the sidelines, watching the Lyon players who were training hard, his eyes switching back and forth between the striker's double guns.

Lyon can have such outstanding results this season, thanks to the double guns.

In yesterday's conversation, Chairman Aulas has set the tone for the team. The goal of this season is to hit the double crown.

Fournier has repeatedly stated that if he wins the championship in two lines, he cannot guarantee to win any championship.

But if he focuses on Ligue [-], he can guarantee that he will win the league.

But Aulas insisted on hitting the double crown.

As a fledgling rookie coach, Fournier couldn't refuse the chairman's request, especially when the opponent has been in charge of the team for nearly 30 years and is full of prestige.

Aulas believes that it is the striker's double guns that can support the team.

Even if the impact fails, you can still get a pair of golden boots and double guns.

Lacazette's scoring efficiency has declined after the injury, but with his previous cumulative advantages, he is still far ahead in the Ligue [-] scorer list.

Marseille center Gignac, who is currently ranked second on the Ligue 16 scorer list, scored 13 goals, and Ibrahimovic, who ranked third, scored [-] goals.

Lacazette, who ranks first, has scored 25 goals

It can be said that Lacazette has basically locked the Ligue [-] Golden Boot.

In the Europa League, Zhang Chaoqiang ranked second with 7 goals.

As long as Lyon continues to move forward, it will not be difficult for Zhang Chaoqiang to score another goal and rise to the top of the list.

So even if the double crown fails, Lyon has a good chance of getting a pair of golden boots and double guns.

For a team like Lyon, even if they can't win the championship, if the players can perform and sell for a high price, that's very good.

If one of Lyon's two guns wins the Ligue [-] Golden Boot and the other wins the Europa League Golden Boot, it must be full of gimmicks.

If the dream is bigger, the two guns won the two golden boots, and at the same time the double crowns were successfully obtained.

Then you can't make a profit?

What's more, with the current results of Lyon, the qualification for the Champions League next season has been stabilized.

This was originally the expected goal when Aulas invited Fournier to coach.

On March 3, in the second round of the Europa League round of 19, the Lyon team came to Istanbul, Turkey's largest city, to challenge Besiktas away.

The three giants of the Turkish League are all gathered in Istanbul, and they have accumulated a lot of grievances for many years.

So after the Lyon team arrived, there were Besiktas fans who provoked and cursed them, and there were also fans of the other two teams who supported them to beat their opponents.

In order to avoid overturning in the away game, Fournier only arranged for Fekir to take turns, and all other main players played.

Two days ago, Lyon's coaching staff held a team meeting and announced that the team's next goal is to hit the double crown.

This would save Zhang Chaoqiang from trouble.

Originally, he was a little worried that the team's abandonment of the Europa League would affect his bid for the Golden Boot.

After all, there is only one goal short, so of course we have to work hard.

The gold content of the Europa League Golden Boot is far less than that of the Champions League. Many players still have little reputation after winning the Europa League Golden Boot, and they seem to be mediocre.

But for Zhang Chaoqiang, this is still a very important personal award.

Agent Jacques Frelo specifically reminded that winning the Europa League Golden Boot will be of great benefit to his competition for the European Golden Boy Award.

Before the start of the game, Zhang Chaoqiang stole two more strength points from Demba Ba, raising his strength attribute to 76 points.

After the official start of the game, Besiktas, who returned to the home court, really increased their momentum, and both offense and defense have improved significantly.

The key referee also blew the home whistle, and all kinds of specious penalties were biased towards the home team.

This allowed Besiktas to score an early goal in the first half, and it seems that there is a real tendency to comeback.

Fortunately, in the second half, Lyon used a corner kick to create chaos in front of the goal. Lacazette had a keen sense of smell and scored with a supplementary shot, completely breaking the opponent's comeback dream.

In the end, the two teams drew 1:1, and Lyon relied on the advantage of the first round to eliminate the opponent with a total score of 3:1.

Zhang Chaoqiang failed to score away goals, but Lyon advanced smoothly, and he still has at least two games to find opportunities.

In other group matches that were held at the same time, Inter Milan was eliminated by Wolfsburg, Villarreal was eliminated by Sevilla, and Roma was eliminated by Fiorentina.

Many strong teams from the five major leagues have been eliminated one after another, which has virtually increased the chances of Lyon hitting the double crown.

In addition, Everton, the only seedling in the Premier League, was eliminated by Dynamo Kyiv 4:6 in two rounds. Toffees' leading striker Lukaku scored two goals in two rounds and failed to save the team.

With the addition of these two goals, Lukaku's Europa League goals this season also accumulated to eight goals, tied for first place with Alan.

However, this has little effect on Zhang Chaoqiang, because his situation remains the same.

Next, if you score one goal, you will be tied for the Golden Boot, and if you score two goals, you will have the Golden Boot exclusively.

So far, the top eight teams in the European War have all appeared.

The Champions League is La Liga Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid, Ligue [-] Paris, Monaco, Bundesliga Bayern, Serie A Juventus, Portuguese Super Porto.

The UEFA Europa League consists of Serie A Naples, Fiorentina, Ukrainian Super League Dynamo Kyiv, Dnipro, French Liga Lyon, La Liga Seville, Bundesliga Wolfsburg, and Russian Super League Zenit St. Petersburg.

The list is crisp and clear, without any Premier League teams.

This is the first time since the restructuring of the European competition, there are no Premier League teams in the Champions League and the Europa League quarter-finals.

Then UEFA organized a draw for the quarter-finals, and Lyon's next opponent was the Ukrainian dark polo team Dnipro.

The French media all believe that this is a good signing, and Lyon has a good chance to continue to advance.

If Lyon really advances to the semi-finals of the Europa League, then you can really imagine the championship.

Coupled with the fact that Lyon currently ranks first in the Ligue [-] standings, they have a good chance of hitting the double crown this season.

The media may not know that Lyon has already finalized the goal of hitting the double crown.

In the UEFA Champions League draw, Monaco got the Serie A class leader Juventus, and Paris got the La Liga giants Barcelona.

The opponents of the two teams are difficult to deal with, and it is likely that both will stop in the quarterfinals.

However, two Ligue [-] teams have advanced to the quarter-finals of the Champions League this season, which is already a huge achievement.

For the four major leagues, it is a shame that no team has advanced to the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

For example, this year's Premier League was ridiculed and could only watch the Champions League at home.

If two teams reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League, it's not much of an achievement.

But for Ligue [-], it is commonplace for no team to advance to the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

And to have two teams advance to the quarter-finals is a huge achievement.

For so many years in the Champions League, this season is the third time in the history of Ligue [-] that two teams have advanced to the quarter-finals of the Champions League at the same time.

Back from the away game in Turkey, Zhang Chaoqiang and Lacazette were brought by Chairman Aulas to participate in a promotional event.

The three of them were wearing overalls and hard hats, and walked leisurely on the construction site.

The team reporters who followed kept taking pictures, and Zhang Chaoqiang picked up the shovel and pretended to pose.

Behind him is a tall, imposing stadium skeleton about to take shape.

"Zhang, Alexander, don't disappoint the fans' expectations. This year we will bid farewell to Gerland with the double crown and welcome the new stadium..." Aulas looked at the stadium that was about to be built, and he couldn't stop his excitement. on the face.

"Don't worry, Mr. Chairman, we will work hard." Zhang Chaoqiang answered loudly, holding a shovel in his hand.

This is the construction site of Lyon's new stadium, and the stadium is about to be completed, so Aulas brought the two most popular stars in the team to inspect the construction site and take photos as a way to promote the new stadium.

The Gerland stadium currently used by Lyon has a history of hundreds of years. Although it has been expanded many times, it is still not ideal, with a capacity of only 4 people.

Aulas has always wanted to build a stadium for Lyon, but for economic reasons, it has always only existed in the imagination.

Fortunately, the French Football Association bid to host the European Cup a few years ago, and the French government provided various subsidies for new stadiums in various places.

So Aulas seized the opportunity to create the Lyon Olympic Stadium.

The five-star stadium with a capacity of 6 people is surrounded by supporting large shopping malls, amusement parks, bars, cinemas and other facilities, which can continuously generate blood for the Lyon club.

It is also investing too much money in this stadium that has caused Lyon's financial situation to be tight in recent years.

Now that the construction of the stadium is about to be completed, Aulas is relieved.
